I assume that you get them when you get to Rapture. Plus if we followed the lore perfectly then my character wouldn't be able to exist anyways.

Ok, just read through the opening post again, it answered my question.

Name: Dustin Carver

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Bio: The son of a wealthy Columbian businessman, Dustin grew up well-cared for in the floating city. His childhood was marked with a sense of adventure and wanderlust, reading comic books and biographies on Father Comstock. Seeing the man as his role-model, he vowed to become a man with such a legacy, wanting his own glory. With his heart set on adventure, Dustin joined the Knights of Songbird, seeing them as a modern version of the renowned Knights Templar.

Vigors/Plasmids: Undertow | Gravity Well

Weapons: Broadsider | Huntsman

Name: Leroy "Dread Crow" Bishop
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Appearance: Leroy has jet black hair that stops just above his shoulders and his eyes are hazel. He is about 6'3 with a sturdy build.

(please ignore the bow and arrows)

Bio: Being the result of the forbidden love of a Founder's daughter and a black house servant Leroy's life was destined to be a hard one, but none the less his parents raised him in secret the best they could. For most of his childhood he worked at his grandparents manor as a boy servant, though they had no idea he was their grandchild. Growing up he was always the outcast, never fitting in with neither his white nor black peers, as a result he pushed away everyone but his parents. The only real joy he got out of life was from the violin lessons that his mother would give him in privet.
Leroy was ten when his whole world was destroyed., as small as it might have been. He was with his family on an outing, a special occasion that was saved for his birth day, when they were cornered by a seemingly normal robber, though a deadly threat none the less. His father gave up the little money he had and his mother reluctantly gave up her gold band, the band Leroy's father gave her the night he declared his love for her, but this did nothing to stop the thug's rage. "You damn N****! You're defiling this white flower here aren't you?!" Were the last words Leroy's father heard before a wave of the thug's hand sent a cloud of crows that ripped him apart. "And you? You had this mutt baby?! You need to be purged!" Another wave of the man's hand and Leroy was left alone in the world. In a blind rage the boy threw himself at the man, only to be stopped effortlessly. The thug dragged the boy towards the edge of the platform they were on. "Trash like you doesn't belong on Columbia! In the name of our lady and the fraternal order of the raven I cast you out!" With that Leroy was tossed to what he thought was his death. The boy fell from the sky only to be saved by landing on a passing zeppelin, though he was left broken both physically and mentally.
Leroy spent a year recovering in the slums of Columbia, mending his broken ribs and leg, before he set out to do the only thing on his since the murders, killing the man responsible. It took him a few months before he tracked down the man, finding out he was part of the group called the fraternal order of the raven. Leroy, at the age of eleven, then decided that his whole life would be dedicated to not only getting back at his parents killers, but destroying everything he and his order stood for. The years since his choice Leroy has dawned the name Dread Crow in order to make a mockery of the Raven's, even taking their most valued Vigor and Sword.

Awesome characters guys, everyone is accepted. I will update the first post with everyone's character and add my own as soon as possible. I had a family thing today so I haven't had time, my apologies.

Name: Clarence Poltry

Age: 29

Gender: Male

Appearance:


Bio: Clarence was born a simple child, never questioning much as he went about his days. His father owned a bakery and sold many goods in the city of Columbia. As Clarence grew older, instead of blindly following his parents beliefs, he began to question silently. Even with his silence, he managed to get past the ignorance, ideals and stubbornness of Columbia. Despite his doubts, he went along with what his parents expected of him, attending church and so forth. After graduating from his schooling, he became a detective in the police force. Despite the odds, he has managed to separate himself from Comstock's and Fink's corrupt hold on the force. He always shows a special kindness to the children of the city, as he understands the pressures being put on them. Clarence takes his job seriously, and at one point attempted to go up against the Order of the Raven after he discovered the mutilated bodies of an African American couple. Despite his commitment causing him to have enemies, his way of going about his job has managed to make him a few helpful allies. Although he has made many allies and friends, he has yet to find a wife, a few theories have been being spread on the reason behind that.

Vigors/Plasmids: Return to Sender, Undertow // Security Command (Replaces Undertow)

@facelessrecon Clarence.. You called him.. Clarence.

Hey all. Random drop in, sorry. I've been watching the thread, not sure if I'll make a character just yet, if at all. I might just see how it goes for now.

Name:
Kennedy Rose McIntire

Age:
21

Gender:
Female

Appearance:


Bio:
Kennedy was born and raised in Columbia. Her father worked as a legal consultant and her mother was a homemaker. Kennedy lived a normal Columbian childhood, taught very young to follow in what Father Comstock said. She did as she was told, did well in school, and never challenged authority. But when Kennedy got into her teens, she began to think more on the society she lived in. Why did they listen to Comstock? He never made any public appearances, the people had rarely seen him, if ever. What made the Founders so special? They were just people, right? Kennedy started to form doubts, though she was able to keep her newly found opinions a secret.

One day, Kennedy was on her way home from school. She decided to take a short cut down an alley, where she noticed an old abandoned building. It had always been there, but she had not taken interest in it. Until that day. Curiosity got the best of her, and she peeped inside. The building was practically destroyed, but she decided to investigate it further. When she got in, she was shocked to find a basement filled to the brim with books. But these books were of the sort she had never seen before... that was because these were banned books, books from the sodom below that Comstock had made sure to keep from the eyes of his citizens.

Everyday after school, Kennedy would stop in the building and pick up a new book to read. After a while of doing this, she had learned a lot. And what she learned only strengthened her doubts towards Comstock and the totalitarian ways of the Columbian government. Kennedy's father discovered that she had been reading unimaginable books and decided it was time to let her in on a secret. He had also formed a distasteful opinion towards Comstock, and he himself had formed a secret society known as the Knights of Songbird. He formed this society because he felt they could help people with issues that were best kept out of the sight of the overbearing government and its ruler.

Over the course of a few years, the Knights grew in numbers. Trusted members of all kinds joined the ranks. Some supported Comstock and his ways, others could care less. But they all believed in helping people with problems that could not be solved by the help of the Police, problems that are ignored by the upper class of Columbia. Kennedy had been a part of the Knights for over a year when her father was killed in a mission gone wrong. He was ambushed and murdered, leaving the society with no leader. Devastated, Kennedy took over the Knights of Songbird and vowed to continue her father's legacy. She is currently the leader of the Knights, and is actively recruiting new members and handling business appropriately.

Vigors/Plasmids:
Will start in Columbia with Shock Jockey and Murder of Crows.

Weapons:
Hand Cannon and Machine Gun

Faction: Leader of the Knights

@Faceless - accepted, especially since you have used 2 Supernatural characters in the last 20 mins xD

Sweet! Thanks so much! ^-^

We can start the IC tomorrow guys, we have enough members. I am still leaving this open but we can go ahead and move on tomorrow afternoon. The roleplay will start with the escapee breaking out and making their way to Columbia. Everyone that isn't involved in that incident carry on with everyday life as your characters would

LAST SECOND CS POST!!! There may be a couple changes depending on certain variables. I have to go to the store real quick so I'll be right back.

Name:
James Moore

Age:
Eight years old

Gender: Male



Bio:
James had grown up with a pretty normal life until he moved to Rapture. His father was a doctor and he had a stay at home mother. One night, after a failed operation, one of his father's patients sued him and they were forced to flee to Rapture. James always thought it was stupid that his father didn't just pay the money so he grew angry towards him for making the family move to this underwater hell. Luckily life was fairly easy as there were many people getting hurt in Rapture so his father's assistance was needed greatly. But slowly, his patient numbers dwindled until there were barely any patients at all. Money was becoming tight for the family and as if God had answered their mother's prayers, a man came to their door and offered to pay them a nice sum for their child. James instantly rejected even the mere thought of leaving but his father needed the money so he couldn't do anything to stop him. James was brought to the orphanage where he befriended many of the girls and boys. After a while, all of the boys were sent home by Dr. Tenenbaum when she said that they would never work. But for some reason they kept James. After a long time, he noticed that a lot of the girls went missing and every time he asked, somebody would just say they were adopted. Finally, somebody came in and took James, saying he was needed for the salvation of Rapture. They took him to a laboratory and forced him unconscious. He was experimented on for hours until they finally managed to make a little brother. Probably the one and only, they managed to get him stabalized and he was able to go collect adam. There were some side effects though. Due to some issues with his biology, James was never able to be mentally conditioned to see the world like the little sisters. He was forced to see the Rapture as it was, a hell underwater.

Vigors/Plasmids: Insect Swarm

Weapons: His baseball bat that he found and an adam needle.

Faction: Other

A Little Brother?

So as the escapee am I going to start the rp tommorow? Just wondering.

I will post an opening post and then everyone can follow suit, but yes as the escapee your post will be important to the roleplay

Ok can't wait :D

Ok I guess I will just use insect swarm as my only plasmid. I was torn on whether to give him one or not. Hey Rocket, Lamb and I were talking and we were wondering if you could find a way to bring James along with you to Columbia.

Yeah! That would be awesome! How should they meet do you think?

Since you are the escapee, and are in the test facility where they are also experimenting on Little Sisters, you could meet in that way. With more detail of course xD

Was James bonded with a Big Daddy yet? He might be trouble
