OOC TAB!

Most of the story can be found in the first post in the IC tab (unless your hear within the first few seconds in which it'll be blank) but the main summery of the RP is that a strange portal opens up after an earthquake in Germany and it leads to a lush field that was apparently guarded by a giant troll-type creature. At the discovery of this entire new world, the governments of ours have no idea how to handle it, should it be split up evenly? Should it be left alone? Should Germany get the rights to it? But we aren't here for government simulation, we are here to shoot goblins with high powered assault rifles. While the world tries to sort out what it wants to do with this new realm, Germany forms a small task force (split into four groups) made up of various soldiers from around the globe, the N.W.R.T.F. Their job is to recon and explore the new realm. As no communications can go through the portal, they will be acting autonomously though standard ROE will apply (no shooting elves just for being elves as tempting as it is). This RP will follow the first group of the N.W.R.T.F and the encounters they will have.

I do have like, a set story but as this is an RP it can pretty much go any way from being all peaceful to just being like "guns > swords let's shoot them" all depending on how the players want/act. Since the task force is a small group (and I'm not an overly experienced gm) I will have a small limit on players and stuff.

As for rules, all site rules apply, no god modding, etc etc. The one big one I will ask though is that if you have to go on hiatus or you are dropping the RP please let us know so we aren't just sitting in limbo waiting for you. If you don't I'll send an AC-130 to your neighborhood.

I'll add more onto the OCC tab as we go on

Before I begin a character sheet, I have a few questions:
1) I love the backstory and I'm intrigued about how the portal even opened up. Would it be far-fetched that my character be from a neighboring planet? I have a whole story set up and she happens to be one of the characters.
2) Speaking of the character, she's an alien. Humanoid looking but once you see them fight, you'll understand the differences. I also have some information regarding their anatomy and physiology.

A bit yea, the RP's story is going to be focused around modern human reaction towards a sudden appearance of other sentient races and their reaction to the sudden appearance of a race that is much much MUCH more advanced then theirs. Throwing in an alien from another planet would kinda kill that mood.

Also I plan to try and keep combat realistic (as realistic as a group of people fighting against a fantasy novel can get) so having a character be able to outperform the others would kinda upset that and throw off the purpose of the RP.

Not that I want to dash your dreams just I feel like it wouldn't fit at all, sorry.

@Shyla Nesthorn
I completely understand. I think I'm going to have to respectfully pull out of this RP, however; I'm limited with time and I wish I could commit more if I wasn't already in another RPG. I sincerely hope you guys have fun, however :)

Apperance:


Bio:
Alright, let's just get this out of the way: Yes, his grandfather was a Nazi, moving on.

Born in America, his father raised him on stories of living in the German Ghetto of post WW2. His father, who became an American citizen and then joined the US NAVY as a medic during Vietnam. They lived as well as anyone else on a retired benefits package, slightly padded because his dad worked for the VA after leaving the service so he filled out his own VA forms with full knowledge of all the little tips and tricks to get every penny coming to them. Andrew Studied hard and had full plans to go to west-point then enlist as an officer, lifetime career to the meatgrinder...Then his dad died.

Technically both his parents died, but he was never strongly attached to her. She acted more like a big sister than a mother as she wanted to be his friend rather than someone to depend on. They were out to the store when they got front-ended by a drunk driver who went over the middle divider, the front seats were impaled by the engine block and the back seat wasn't much better but he survived with 'superficial' damage to his limbs more than his main flesh.

Now an orphan too young to emancipate, he had to move to Germany to be with his ailing grandfather. Rind was a nice enough city, named after the river, or the river named after the city? He went to school there while taking care of his grandfather who volunteered at the local Hebrew temple in Contrition for what he did when he was younger. "After it was all over, after the dust had settled, we were shown just what we had been fighting for that whole time...it broke something inside of me. Not all of us fought on the winning, or right, side of the war."

Different than he planned, but still on his schedule. He fast-tracked himself to attend Führungsakademie der Bundeswehr in Hamburg rather than returning to America to go to West Point. He was doing this to honor his family, not his country. He graduated 2 years later in the middle of his class and was one of the lucky few drawn from a lottery to be interviewed. He told his story of living on both sides of the ocean with nothing but propaganda to filter his views of the world but not letting it cloud his judgment. They deemed his clearheadedness a unique trait that would be needed when dealing with entities on the other side.
Personality:
A calm and clear-minded individual, he likes to gather all the information he can before coming to a judgment. Often a member of student councils and a personal mediator in conflicts growing up. He is a herald of peace in times of war, a dove with eagles claws.

OK first post is up so we can start posting IC. Also posted my character's CS in the CS tab so go take a look if you want an idea who is leading you guys.

Remember the team has been training with each other and sharing a bunkhouse for about two weeks as Team 1. So while this isn't a first meeting of everyone it doesn't have to be "we are all buddy buddies". You all just know each other at least by name and stuff.
