You awaken in a cold, stone room, with some people you haven't seen before they all seem to be regaining consciousness. A pale corpse is leaning against the wall. The man seems to be about thirty years old, with jet black hair and a short beard. He is wearing a purple sweatshirt and a pair of faded jeans. His stomach was ripped open, and it seemed like he had bled out. You see a message scrawled on the wall opposite of you. "Find the blender, damn it!" Judging by the blood on the man's hand, he had written the note himself. You realize that everyone in the room, including you, is wearing simple clothes. T-shirts, shorts, etc.

There are two heavy wooden doors on opposite sides of the room, but other than that the corpse, the note, and the other people, the room is empty.

You try to remember how you got here, but you simply remember falling asleep the night before...

Now, you are lost and confused with no instructions other than five words from a deceased man.

"Find the blender, damn it!"

Welcome to BLENDER QUEST! Please make complete a CS, or at least a rough draft, within the next 3.78 days. Here is, minimum, what your character should have.

Name:
Gender: (Otherwise, I'll assume it)
Characters Favorite Color:
Bio: (At least two complete sentences. That's all I'm requiring. Your character can be a pirate, janitor, accountant, knight, I don't care. just something.)
Physical Description: (At least one complete sentence. Seriously, that'll be fine. Pictures aren't necessary.)
Personality: (At least three words)
Knowledge of Magic: (Do they know it exists? Or maybe only a specific type?)
And anything else you think is important. I mean, that guy was disemboweled. Maybe your character has gotta have some fighting skills? Or maybe your character is really good at scrabble. Who knows? That might be relevant.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Rules:

1. All regular RP rules apply. You can put as much or as little effort into this as you want.

2. Your character is human. I know this is labeled as a fantasy RP, and there will likely be some pretty crazy stuff. But you're just going to be a normal dude.

3. I'm not going to get really mad if your grammar is awful, but I need to at least understand what you are saying. I'll probably say something in the OOC if your post is essentially unreadable.

4. I make the first IC post, then, as long as I have said your character is approved, you can go.

5. Extended absences will result in me taking over your character until you privately message me with a mildly entertaining meme and ask for forgiveness. What qualifies as an extended absence? Roughly 2.5 days (this is subject to some change). If I haven't taken control of your character yet, no apology is necessary.

6. What's behind the door? What's in the bag? Did I kill that? Questions of this nature will be answered by the GM. For example, a post shouldn't say something like: "John Cena opened the box on the floor and found a bunch of grenades and a potion that restored him to full health. He threw the grenades at the giant spider. It blew up, and inside of it was a magical sword that let John Cena regain visibility."

*Magic Clause: Using magic requires the acquisition of an item. Whether it is a spellbook, wand or both will be determined by me later on.



Questions? Comments? Concerns? Donations? Complains? Put them below.

Joining late? Say something here, and then PM me.

Pretty good, just two issues.

#1- Unfortunately, your character doesn't get to start with any items. So, no razorblade and katana. That being said, you may run into one of these items early on.

#2- I'm okay with Dark Horse being able to preform some ritual magic and being familiar with some dark magic. However, I'd prefer that the characters start out unable to use magic without some sort of tool, wand, etc.

Alright. I'd like to have, bare minimum, one other person in the RP. But, the more the merrier.

In addition, I'm going to mention magic in the 1st post.

This RP sounds mysterious as shit, count me in!


Name: William

Gender: Male

Character's Favorite Color: Grey

Bio: William is or rather was a summoner. He was able to summon spectral creatures for entertainment, labour, and sometimes even combat. However he could only perform those feats if he has his summoning spellbook, and ever since he lost it in a break-in, he could only summon mere bugs. Now he works as a pet shop owner, unable to distance himself away from animals. Everyday he dreams of summoning animals again, perhaps this adventure would make it a reality.

Skills:
    Summoning - William is able to summon and control spectral creatures without any problem, assuming he has the spell or ritual on hand, otherwise he can only summon a dozen or so bugs.

    Boxer - Sometimes when his opponent decides to go for him directly, William is able to throw a mean punch with his rather large fists. Although he's not quite nimble and good at dodging, he's able to take a few hits undazed.

Physical Description: A man of average height and build, quite bearded and more towards the plump side due to his creatures doing most of the work. Some would call him a giant dwarf.

Personality: William is hardly a person who keeps his thoughts to himself, whenever the opportunity arises, whether it be appropriate or not, he'll be sure to jest and joke. He likes animals a lot and is quite friendly to most of them which is to be expected. As for humans, nothing pisses him off more than those who harm animals, otherwise he's open to most people.

Name: Jesper

Gender: Male

Favorite Color: Black

Bio: Jesper was a thief. Or rather, is a thief. He made his living by pick-pocketing, running, and sometimes even fighting. He is eerily intelligent, and you'd think he'd use his smarts for something better, but he never wanted to do anything else. However, he never seemed to take anything from anyone who wasn't rich, or rather, he would always give it back. His mother and father were never known to him, and he could care less. He'd always been a thief, and nothing could change that.

Skills:

Speed-Jesper had to run quite often, so he eventually grew to be very quick, as well as fit. The reason why he had to run? I'm sure you can guess.

Nimble Fingers-Jesper has honed his pick-pocketing skills, until they got very impressive indeed. Often, the victim wouldn't even feel the slightest of tugs. However, he sometimes rushes, which causes the victim to lash out viciously. Or, find someone to do it for them.

Physical Description: Jesper has a lean and fit form, though he is fairly shorter than he'd like to be, only about a disappointing "5'5". He hopes to grow, but at sixteen, he doubts it will happen. His skin is very pale, and his hair is a dark brown.

Personality: Jesper is a very silent and brooding boy, though he sometimes has short bursts of happiness when he demonstrates his skills. He typically is lost in thought. He tries to be friendly, though his brooding nature scares off most.

Three quick notes for everyone, then some character specific things

1) Good job with the characters! I like them all.
2) Thinking about getting started on Friday. Would anyone want to see it a day earlier/ later?
3) I'm going to make a character that I control

@xChrome I'm okay with the insect summoning at first, as long as it gets harder for him to control them the more he summons them.

@DriveEMOut Just going to ask, is your character aware of magic's existence? I know I didn't say anything at first, but now I realize that this might actually be important... (realizations like this may be frequent over the course of the next few days. I'll add something about this to the 1st post.)

@AdobeFlash Similarly, is your character aware of magic other than dark magic existing? (Trying to differentiate between a goth looking up some cool party tricks on the Internet and a legitimate magician.)

Oh, and I just edited the first post slightly. Added another rule (which is kind of an regular RP rule anyways), edited the magic clause, and added something about magic to the CS.

And now, a picture regarding blenders:

Sweet, I'll probably copy and paste your CS and put it into the CS area soon. As of now, it is approved.

Alright thanks for accepting me mate, that's not a problem to me and would make sense. By the way, some quick questions, I assume this RP takes place in the present and magic is a pretty common thing in the world? And what's the tone of the RP?

I'll get back to you on the tone... I think I kind of need to sleep on that one to give you the best answer. For now, I'll just say the tone is sort of light hearted, with the occasional odd event, but there is mostly an element of mystery and exploration throughout the RP.

I've decided that, in this reality, magic takes place in the "underground" so to speak. Only three types of people, or roughly 3% of the population even know about it: individuals that learned about it on their own, but nobody believed, some government officials, and people who are using it for... questionable... reasons.

Although magic isn't really common in the world, it is quite common in the dungeon.

Okay sure, but that's mostly what I needed to know, don't wanna joke too much if it has a more serious or darker tone. I'm clear on the magic part too.

Yeah, there will be a serious/ dark tone at some points, but I think overall, joking around should be fine. I understand wanting to know the tone, too.

Mmhmm sure, a mix of both is fine with me. It's hard for me to take it too seriously with all the blender memes haha. By the way, I'm also fine with starting early, pretty much anytime is fine.

Alright, I think I'm going to start roughly 24 hours from now. Gives people a bit more time to convey interest and for me to make the first post in the IC.

Also gives @adobeflash more time to finish their CS (which is approved with my suggested edits, by the way. Once you have edited it, go ahead and throw it in the CS thing.)

Also, no pressure @adobeflash you can hop in any time you like. This will definitely be a fairly flexible RP, from a new character stand point. if you join too late though, I'm probably going to need you to PM me first.

Looking forward to getting started!

Also, for some reason, this is one of the first pictures that came up when I searched for blender memes. Thanks, Google Images.
