@Macro I heard that the RP here is still running, and I plan on joining in too!

I hope this character's alright!

Carmen Chavana

Name: Carmen Chavana

Age: 22

Gender: Female

Appearance: Carmen stands tall at 5'9", and has a rather toned muscle definition from a few years of practice and training (in prison). Brown hair, brown eyes, pretty face, very Hispanic. During her life in gangland Detroit, she's aquired a few tattoos along her back and shoulders, and a few more in prison as well. Along the back of her shoulders and the top half of her back are that of a Phoenix spreading its wings, and along her lower back are the ashes that it has risen from, the debri of the ashes scattered symmetrically on both sides, both of them forming the constellation of Aries on either side. She also has a few cigarrette burn marks along her arm, as well as a few slash wound scars along her gut and arms from fights with other criminals/prisoners. She also has a long scar along her cheek and temple, as an evaded attempt on her life in prison.

Currently she's wearing an outfit similar to the one above, but is instead wearing a grey NAVY tank-top and Navy camo BDUs.

Personality: Carmen is a relatively intelligent, hard working and brave team player who has the capability of doing great things, but due to being raised under terrible circumstances she has grown to be antisocial, and is often detatched and prefers to stay away from other folks. Due to her run-ins with the police, as well as being imprisoned for what she calls "doing society a favor", she has a strong dislike towards authority, and will often not cooperate with rules or authority figures she sees as unreasonable (she's not stupid, so she will cooperate with rules that are common sense).

Often times in social situations, she would first be anti-social to entire groups, but when talking to one person and one person only, it's much easier to talk to her and befriend her. However, trust is earned with her, and she often doesn't hang around people until she deems them "worthy" of her trust. When it comes to situations that aren't social, like emergencies, she's normally the first one to the scene, and she will do her best to save that person/quell the threat. She's very heroic in that regard, and is normally the person who would step up to the plate during desperate situations.

She's also a smartass so expect a few snarky comments here and there. She's also open to the idea of having a boyfriend, and even though she tries to deny it, she's open to having a girlfriend as well.

Strengths:
- Intelligent
- Team Player
- Empathetic
- Brave
- Hard Working
- Dedicated

Flaws:
- Snarky/Smartass
- Antisocial
- Slow to trust others
- Guilt complex

History: Carmen Chavana was born under Rosa Chavana and Paco Gamero, who returned from Navy service onboard the USS Constellation shortly before her birth. When Carmen was 2 years old, Paco, who was still in a relationship with Rosa at the time, moved with his girlfriend and daughter to Detroit, as he had a cousin that worked as a second-hand manager of the General Motors Assembly plant. There, for most of her life, she grew up in Detroit. However, when she was 7, the relationship between her parents was getting strained, and from then she grew up under a drunk mother and an abusive father. Due to the nature of her family and the abuse that her mother and Carmen herself experienced from her father, she remained rather secluded and never did much at home other than read, and wish to go sail away from the world.

Her mother left Paco when Carmen was 12, though when they moved they moved into a small hispanic ghetto, where Rosa was able to easily purchase illegal drugs from one of the gangs that dominated the neighboorhood, as well as get "protection" in exchange, for... well... "services". Carmen, who was going to school (a rather terribly funded one at that), heard about the various gangs that ruled the area, and heard about all of the cool stuff about them that her peers talked to her about. Wanting a better life for herself, she ran away from home and hung out with one of the local hisspanic gangs that ruled the area. She was thrown into her first fight, where she had to prove her worth to the gang by fighting one of its biggest members. She was able to dodge most of the man's punches and throw some of her own, and even though he didn't go down that easily, the other members were impressed and recruited her into the gang, seeing how useful she was.

From that point on, she has grown up under a false family, though some of the gang members did treat her with the love and respect of other siblings. However, when she was older, she went on a crime spree with other members, robbing stores and rival gangs. She was never caught by the police, and never identified by any of her victims. However, it wasn't until she was 17 that she found out about a child molester living in her neighboorhood, and after finding horrifying evidence when robbing his home of such acts, she murdered the man responsible when he returned home, and protected children he kidnapped until the police arrived. Due to being responsible for the murder, she was arrested and imprisoned, but was given a short sentence given the circumstances. Her sentence lasted for four years, and in that time she learned to be tougher, stronger, and studied.

Carmen was released from prison when she turned 21 after a few transfers and good behavior, and is now on parole. Hearing about the US Naval Academy from a local recruiter, she decided to go there in hopes of starting her life over as a good woman, and to atone for her sins in the past. As part of her life mission, she had the tattoo of the Pheonix and Aries ash debri marks done in order to symbolize that she has risen from the ashes, born as a new, free bird. However, while sleeping at a motel one night when making the trip to the academy, she woke up in the locked room.

There's been some activity here... I assume this thing's still open, right? What's my next course of action?

[SomewhatAverage]

@AbandonedIntel I'm not sure, but this thing is probably still open; we've only just gotten started. If I were you, I would wait for The GM to accept your character. If they don't respond by tomorrow, I'd try and PM them your character sheet. Other than that, I'm looking forward to seeing Carmen included in the roleplay!

@SomewhatAverage

Okay, thank you very much! :D

[Macro]

@AbandonedIntel yes you're accepted, sorry for the delay. You can begin posting as if you just woke up later than the others.

@Macro

Okay, thank you! Please add roleplayerguild.com/posts/3658360 to the character sheet for me plz!

And before I post, I have one question. Was everyone drugged before they woke up?

[SomewhatAverage]

@AbandonedIntel I don't think so. The main idea is that the characters fell asleep, just like an average night, and they woke up in the room. I suppose that you could have your character be drugged, but I'd check it with Macro first.

[BogeyDope]

@SomewhatAverage Yeah I'm waiting for a response. I guess I should whip up my post then until then huh? XD

[Macro]

@AbandonedIntel It's all up for speculation at this point as to what happened.

@Macro

I just needed to know for reasons of introductory post. I'll just say that she's a heavy sleeper then. XD Posting now

[BogeyDope]

Hey... is this thing still alive? D:

[Macro]

If everyone continued posting, then yes haha
