NOTIFICATION BOARD:

Recruiting is currently closed due to the large amount of Runners. It may be possible to join at a later date, but we aren't looking for new memebers right now.

This is probably important
Death is going to be a thing. Here's how you qualify.
  • Do exceedingly stupid stunts in or out of character while ignoring warnings.
  • The story is at a dramatic point and we've gotten your approval beforehand.
  • You leave without reason or explanation for a long period of time. Maybe a week. Dunno yet.

Those that willingly offer a character up to the chopping block for the sake of drama will be given the type of death that they wish for, provided it works within the context. Those people are free to make a new character. All other deaths will be hilariously gruesome. Those people will have to give a good reason as to why they should be allowed to return.

Cannon fodder is always welcome, though.

Regards.

Devil's Runners


"So you came here for another story, eh? Well let me tell you one that you have never heard of before."








The RP

So what is this and what are we doing? Well you should know if you have read the story, but if ya haven't ye lazy bastard then I will tell you right now. We will be playing as mercenaries that go out in a post-apocalyptic world of suffering and doom, solve people's issues (for a good price that is) and get supplies for settlements that need it. Our team would choose from a range of quests offered by various settlements and individuals, and the carry out said quest. After that, we will be bale to spend some sweet time developing characters and listening my more exposition from yours sincerely. If you like what you hear, and you want to have this awesome experience with a devoted GM then you should apply!

Rulez

This is how the cookie crumbles:
-Site rules apply, duh.
-I am a nice and friendly GM that sometimes goes into full retard, but my words are still the most powerful, and right after them are the words of my Co-GMs.
-I expect at least 2 paragraphs per post with a mid/high casual quality. My primary language isn't english, but I expect proper sentences in an RP. Just make sure posts advance the plot.
-For the love of god, make up your mind once you join. I don't want anyone leaving after a week or two, holding up the rest of the RP until they decide to announce that they are quitting.
-Please no OP characters that are the "chosen ones". Your skills should reflect your background and be within reasonable boundaries. Remember that everyone has some quirks, so make sure you make a character with exploitable weaknesses for RP reasons.

@Liotrent There you go guys again with these confidence killers! So far I have only seen 2 awesome characters, so I have high hopes for your work. And I am sure you don't know me as someone to break your spirits by absolutely shittalking what you write.

If anything I am the biggest fan of my players and their writings. After all, we can't have an RP without them and the time they spend in developing characters.

Imma drop my interest and start making a character. Quick question though, are there multiple groups of Devil Runners, or is it just one?

@Tala Avana We are the only Devil's Runners. There may be other runners or groups like us, but we are THE Devil's Runners.

@SilverDawn Yo, I gotta add her to my fave characters. Even thought she isn't especially a "runner" despite being in a gang like us, she seems like a really good addition to the team. And the format is just *kisses fingers like a chef*
Put 'er into the CS if you are done editing whatever you think you may want to add to her.

JOHN LOUIS

“Teach”


MOTTO


"Teach people valuable lessons about life, mostly how not to catch a bullet to the head and how not to be a dumbass."




Age:

0 41

Personality:

0 Cautious and Careful
-He likes to take his time, make sure everything is just right.
0 Reserved and Attentive
-He doesn’t talk much, he only talks when he needs to, but he is listening.
0 Truthful, Heavy-Handed, and untactful
-When there’s a problem, he’ll tell it to you straight, no beating around the bush.
0 Irritable, grumpy, easily annoyed
-The dude’s forty one year’s old, just cause he’s reserved doesn’t mean he’s always calm.
0 A Harsh but practical Realist
-He may be a realist and realistically speaking everything is bleak, but he’s reasonable enough to see that it ain’t over yet.

Background:

The old man was an teacher on Engineering and physics, explaining everything from Electrical circuits, batteries, structural Engineering, architecture, all the way to Nuclear physics; he was able to survive from the application of this knowledge and the books that were left abandoned near his place of work which he gathered while evacuating into a safer zone as the entire city he was in was close enough to the edge of the affected area that it was considered a risk.

He was of course decontaminated and quarantined to observe for any ill-effects; thankfully John didn’t show any signs of radiation poisoning, since then he has been trying to improve life for people in his settlement, even going as far as making his own ‘wasteland kit’ for going out into the wastes and scavenging it for anything useful. Because of this, John has more than once encountered dangerous mutants and raiders, he made his own weapons to defend himself and actively hunt problematic denizens of the wastes.

This led him to take on new skills and lessons from the wastes considering that he could’ve died on numerous occasions, he was resourceful enough to stay on his feet and was still fit enough to move around easily, seeing as he kept himself in shape using his own exercise equipment. Eventually, he was hired to do a job that was supposed to kill him but he came back, rumors spread and people started asking things of him, and just like that, he was a merc, he still taught in the settlements trying to keep education alive, it was understandable no one could really afford to be in any type of school at that point, so he did what he could with the books that he had, he even tried to learn chemistry, but he could not understand it to a point where he could apply it, but at the end of the day he was still a Merc and eventually a Devil’s Runner.

Pros

0 Resourceful Craftsman
-If he’s got time and resources, he could make something for you and you could bet your ass it’d work.
0 Fast Learner
-Something that took a normal person days to learn could only take him hours to learn and do proficiently.
0 Meticulous Perfectionism
-Want something done right the first time? He’s the guy you call, he’ll work until everything feels juuust right.

Quirks & Cons

0 Too silent for the dead
-He never talks until he needs to talk, he doesn’t waste precious breath on stupid shit.
0 Mr. Irritable
-When he does talk, it’s often to tell you to shut the hell up or to stop being completely stupid.
0 Anti-Social, Grizzled Veteran
-He’s seen some really fucked up shit happen in the wastes, probably why he doesn’t talk or get close to anybody.

Habits:

0 Reading books
-The Old man is an avid reader of the literary works, from philosophy to fiction, ironic that this is one of the situations that happened in a Sci-fi novel he read.
0 Pacing
-When he’s thinking, nervous, anxious, or even excited about something he instinctively paces; his mood can be determined by the way he paces around and around, over and over.

Equipment

0 Gas Mask.
-Part of the kit.
0 Pneumatic Sniper Rifle
-Fires 15mm steel balls, mag-fed, requires pumping, Scoped 4x zoom, very powerful when the air tank is at full pressure.

0 Homemade Knife
-The Knife is a lot like a machete or a cleaver.
0 Carry pouches
-To carry all his equipment and rations.
0 Tool Kit
-What kind of Engineering and Physics professor doesn't have their own tools?
0 Pistol
-A regular 9mm Plinker, nothing special about this. Useful in tight situations, in fact best side arm he owns until he can find a new one or make his own.

Those times you spend an hour writing up something in the middle of the night, go to sleep, and in the morning hate every part of it. God damnit.
