Welcome to the OOC..!

For those who have already shown interest in the roleplay; when making your character, please choose two Plasmid colors for your character- the colors you choose determine the two Plasmids you end up with for the roleplay.

Colors already chosen are:

Vicier - Blue and Purple
Caits - Green and Orange
Voltus - Rainbow and Grey
Fantasy - Pink and Cream
Ulster - Silver and Light Blue
Mag - Red and Dark Grey
Panther - Light Green and Lilac
Damo - White and Teal

I want to reserve the Rainbow and Grey plasmids.

I also love the images.

I have my eyes on the Pink and Cream Plasmids :)

Would quite like to reserve the silver and light blue Plasmids? Oh and CS incoming.

I want to reserve the Rainbow and Grey plasmids.

I also love the images.

Haha..! No problem..! Rainbow and Grey are yours..!
As for the images, I wanted something that wasn't really going to give way to what the Plasmids were, but something that sort of represented what the liquid inside looked like before our characters inject themselves with them; I thought they looked pretty cool x'3

I have my eyes on the Pink and Cream Plasmids :)

Pink and Cream Plasmids it is..!

Would quite like to reserve the silver and light blue Plasmids? Oh and CS incoming.

You got it..! Silver and Light Blue are yours..!

Also, just so everyone is aware, in this roleplay, while the Plasmids are going to be injected into each of our characters like in the game itself, the Gene Tonics are going to be just that; tonics in small bottles that our characters can drink, they are all going to be the same color (maybe like the yellowish color of lemonade), glowing slightly, and each bottle will be labelled with what Tonic it actually is..! :'3

@Vicier

Here is my sheet! Hope you enjoy

I'd like to reserve Red and Dark Grey while I get ready to work on my sheet. @Vicier

Bio: Arthur Kingsley is a private detective in Los Angeles. A veteran of both WW2 and Korea, he also served in the LAPD for a further decade. Born in the San Fernando Valley, Kingsley had an unremarkable childhood. He joined the US Army in the final years of the Second World War, and served against the German army in the Netherlands and northern Germany. He still carries a Luger taken from a brave Wehrmacht officer there. Following the war's end he joined the LAPD, serving six years as a patrolman. The Korean War brought him back into uniform, where he fought against the North Koreans and the Communist Chinese. Resuming his career in the LAPD after the war he rose to the rank of Detective in the prestigious Homicide Bureau. A highly-controversial case involving the mayor and several prostitutes forced him from the department. He set up his own private detective agency just off Hollywood Boulevard.

Kingsley is a somewhat charming man, with an easy, affable manner. However, the years of suffering that he had seen both as a soldier and a cop has caused him many sleepless nights-and a slight drinking problem.

Now a case leads him across the seas, to his destiny in a city beneath the waves...

@VicierWhat would be the premise of the RP? I understand it's Bioshock, but is this just after Rapture falls, or does it begin at Bioshock 1 timeline, and do the character's wake up there or do they understand all that's happened? (If there's room, lol)

I Should work on mine...

I'm going to join if thare alright ash

Oh my god a bioshock roleplay
I've wanted this since I read the book

.....though I think the games have scarred me for life >.>
Surround sound and bioshock does not mix man

@Caits@Vicier
Also hi :3
Imma look through stuff again for character stuff but dudes
This is awesome

Hey everyone..! Sorry it has taken me so long to respond; I was house-sitting this weekend, and as it was the last day, I needed to tidy things up before leaving. Now that I'm at home, I can address everything that you guys have brought up :'3

First of all... @POOHEAD189; the roleplay is going to begin with the plane crash, and our characters trying to get out of the water and to shelter (the lighthouse). If I do my job correctly, and you're all happy with what I'm doing, then our characters will be able to experience the world of all three of the Bioshock games- yes, all three. I will be bringing Columbia into this roleplay as well.

Also, I'm not sure if it's just me, but I've noticed that the 50's theme is creeping into the characters that are being made; while I love it, I just want to remind you all that this roleplay is set in modern times for us, with Rapture stuck, frozen in the 50's. I have tried to explain this while answering some questions posed to me in the interest check; but in case you missed both the questions and the responses, I have collected them, and popped them into the hider below for everyone to have a look at if they want to..! :'3



I hope that bringing these across into the OOC helps in some way or another, and answers even some of your questions; though should you, or anyone, have any other questions, or are still unsure about things, please don't hesitate to ask me, I'll do my best to answer them for you. :'3

I hope this helps in some way; now... onto the CS'..! x'3

@FantasyChic; I'm really liking Daphne; she's basically the complete opposite of Isaura, which can either lead to a few very good interactions, or a few bad ones... either way, it's going to be a very interesting a bumpy ride with the dynamics they both bring to the group. I see nothing really that would need changing, or tweaking in your roleplay so... welcome aboard flight BAW229 from Los Angeles to London..! Feel free to pop her across into the character section..!

@Ulstermann; hey..! Okay, so I love the idea for your character, having a mature person in the group who understands, and has been through things like he has is an amazing premise, especially for this kind of roleplay, and I would love for him to be apart of it, however, I did notice a couple of things that made me have to stop and think. The first thing I noticed is that there is quite a bit of information missing from the CS; personality, likes, dislikes, relationship section, etc. Unfortunately I can't accept a character that doesn't have all the fields filled out. The second thing, and I'm not sure if you noticed the questions and answers when they were in the interest check, and if you didn't, that's no problem at all (plus the picture I used for my face-claim probably doesn't help), however, the way that I'm working this roleplay is that it is set in the present day- our characters are living in the same modern world that we are.

You see, with Arthur Kingsley being 43 years old, and having participated in both WW2 and the Korean War... it doesn't really work with the time setting for the roleplay... If that were the case, he would have been born around 1925 (estimate), and would be entering, if not already be in his 90s today. Truthfully, I don't know a lot about the wars that have happened around the world... that's more my dad and my little brother's thing; so I asked them about it (mostly my dad), and got their opinions and suggestions, and they helped to come up with a few really good ones.

For Arthur to be 43 years old in 2016, and still have similar experiences, he would need to be born in 1973. Now; during a time of crisis, most people are drafted into the army at 18 years old, however, a lot of people lied and manipulated their age in order to join up early, and to serve their country- Arthur could have been one of the many who did that. From 1990 to 1991, America sent forces over to Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Israel, and participated in the Gulf War... not long after that ended, troops were sent into Somalia in 1992 to 1995 and to stage an intervention in the Somali Civil War. There is also the choice of the Bosnian War which went from 1994 to 1995. After both of those wars, US troops were sent to Serbia to fight in the Kosovo War lasting from 1998 through to 1999; the war only just one part of the much bigger Yugoslav Wars. It would then free him up for his retirement into the LAPD for a decade I believe, so from 2000 through to 2010, from there he could have set up shop as a PI in 2011, and been his own boss since o:

I'm not saying in any way, shape, or form that this is what you have to go with... I'm merely trying to offer up some suggestions that could prove to be helpful in some way. And besides, as I said earlier, I really love the premise of your character, and would love for him to be apart of the roleplay :'3

@Mag Lev; I like William a lot..! He's definitely going to make an interesting addition to the group, and above that, I'm rather excited to see his interactions with Poole play out once they meet in the roleplay. So with that... welcome aboard flight BAW229 from Los Angeles to London..! Feel free to pop him across into the character section..!

As for everyone else (@POOHEAD189, @Fat controller, @BlackPanther); due to the insane way this roleplay blew up, literally over night, I shall be adding another four Plasmids to the current list, bringing the total number of Characters up to ten instead of eight.

Also, as a side note; I realized that in my CS I had Sexuality and Relationship Status listed twice... I'm so sorry about that, and I have fixed that up; feel free to only list it once, in the relationship section of the CS :'3

NOW, to carry on my tradition of lightening things up after a long and rambling post on my behalf, I shall present to you guys an apology picture and hope you all like it x'3

@Vicier
Awesome!
I have to be honest and say it's been awhile for the game
Though images and such trigger memories because honestly I'm pretty sure it scarred me XD

So my main rememberance is the book....so if I confuse something or say something that was book occurance and not quite game please tell me

Anyways I'm quite excited
I am developing an idea to throw at you as we speak (read? Text?)

@Vicier@Caits
