Yes, I was...

Spent many years with Group in the Army and deployed to alot for crappy places.

Got another IC post up, anyways.

I'll have a post up tonight. Thanks for fire under our butts Zombie!

@Espatier: The character is fine, but the weapons and gear is, frankly, outrageous. The fact this character is 46 yet is basically in ideal condition is also a lot to swallow. I recommend you check out the CSs in the OP. Please submit again im the narrative format, and I'll be happy to work with you from that point to make your character more realistic. Apologies for the short message, typing on a mobile is definitely not my ideal.

@ShonHarris

No problem... Like I stated earlier the was about two years ago and I know that alot has changed beside just hands with this. I'll re-look at the CS and rework it for Chino.

V/r,
Espatier

By the way, I had something of a second character in mind who might have a significant role to play regarding the 1007th in the future. Since you're all an excitable bunch, I'll throw you a pair of initials - C.A. And yeah, this is sort of a character I've used before on an MTA RP server I used to go to, albeit in different circumstances.

I've never made a combined post before... I really like it! Responded to both Zombie/Fallen & FreeFall in one post. Whaddup?

My plan is to continue the Chico plot despite the loss of Aweena. Her characters can sort of fade into the action, leaving them available, just unknown. If she's still gone in a month or so, we can talk about moving the characters to NPCs or opening them for adoption by other players.

Also, FreeFall, I hadn't thought Mackinac could be its own plot point, but now I am. Let's see where this goes and perhaps as we get Apocalyptica back to health, this too can grow. The roleplay has tons of possibilities, many of which Aweena and I had planned to explore. I see this as an excellent 'pathfinder' to seeing just what's possible. I'd also invite others to create second Primary Character if this moves them. I know with Simon, I feel there's much more to explore, but the divergence into Joshua is extremely refreshing. If others would like to, I'd gladly take second characters so long as they help out other areas of the RP. For example, Simon is a part of the Chico plot & Joshua is in the Mackinac line. Perhaps this can usher in a new wave of creativity, aye?

I was actually looking at this earlier, and I might be interested in joining if that's ok?

You're absolutely welcome to submit a Character Sheet. Check out our OPs and get a feel for the world, we've tried to keep things usefully detailed, but not overly laden with superfluous information. One thing I will emphasize is that we use Narrative Character Sheets. These are briefly described in the OP #2 and there are examples of already accepted characters to help guide you. If you need any help, shoot me a PM, or just post up in the OOC. We're a very helpful bunch!

Thanks, gonna have something up by tomorrow night at the latest then :)

Haha, my last deployment I ended up unofficially attached to an ODA team about half way through. Fantastic bunch of guys. I would take running around with them and living in a VSP over a regular ol' COP or FOB any day. Never had I been able to use like every facet of my job until I was rolling out with SF. Good times, good times...

Hell yeah, let's ride the current and see where it takes us and get some more life up in this place.

By the way, from Monday-Friday next week I'll be away though I'll try and find a way of keeping tabs on the RP. Got some work up on the doc yesterday, too.

VSP = small house vs Combat outpost and forward operational base.

cool beans

I'll try to pump out a Remmy post and figure out how to get Abbie back into the story... Right now, the main reason I faded out the Sentinels was focus more on her character and currently, with her in limbo, that's not exactly fulfilling that.

That problem may well be solved, but plan otherwise just in case.

Right now pretty much anyone could post, and I know we're waiting on two Character Sheets from interested parties. I understand Zombie is on the sidelines for this week, thanks for the heads up! My advice to everyone would be to avoid planning your characters into corners. I mean that, if someone is gone for a week, or a month, don't make yourself so dependent on them that you're SOL. Also, don't plan so much you don't leave any surprise for yourself. I think we've all suffered from that a good bit, am I right?

I have at least one idea, which includes Abigail waking up in an alleyway and having a bit of memory loss over what happened. It might allow some newbies to get in on this and what not as she would still remember her name and the important stuff, just not the events between her current situation and the last post, not to mention where she's at...hehee. (Which I have an explanation for this, I swear! It just has to be discovered IC as it slowly comes back to her.) However this is only if your plans don't free up Abbie.

Also shortly will send you everything I talked to Aweena on about Abigail shortly.Currently I've got a small Remmy post about under a 1,000 words but I think I'll wait for a bit to allow someone else to post instead of spamming the IC. XD It could grew as well in that time.

I got eaten alive by offline concerns, I know I've got catchin' up to do but will it still be possible to get in on this stuff?

Better get moving before you get too far behind.

I'm gonna rejigger the CS a bit to account for the changing situation, then hopefully have something to show y'all relatively soon.

In the meantime I've got something up for Remmy on the doc if you want to work with it, just got back yesterday.

I'll try to have something up by tomorrow, Zombie. I'm trying to adapt what I had written into something shorter and more fitting to the collab.
