[OOC] Wal-World: Dead Stock – [Walmart Apocalypse Adventuring RP] [ENDED]

[ClocktowerEchos]

Preferably I'd like to have one more player before starting IC although if nothing comes for a while I supposed I could attempt to start with just the three of us.

@ClocktowerEchos

Time to advertise, I suppose.

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Raddum Yeah, hopefully one of the other people who had interest come on.

[Syben]

Posting my interest for all to see.

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Aeonumbra Welcome! Do you have an idea for a Char?

[ML]

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Mercenary Lord Oh you are accepted, I thought I told you o.o

Oh boy oh boy!

[Raxacoricofallapatorius]

@ClocktowerEchos Tbh I'm always stoked about any RP you run/are involved in.

I'm brainstorming some character ideas now. I'd like to lean toward a more rogue-ish shoplifter. Probably from the Do It Yourself department with the skills and tools of an all-around handyman. Someone with a thrill-seeking personality who you don't really want to hang around too long because he's just predisposed to getting in trouble (but also pretty proficient at getting out of it).

Thoughts?

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Raxacoricofallapatorius Sounds intriguing. Although, would they just be like a thief from Home Improvement? I feel like the term shoplifter would be used in the wal as just to mean "thief" instead of someone who steals from the Wal as everyone does that. Still, a perfect addition, love 'em!

Also, I'm super touched that you like my stuff ^//^
I would ask why/what reasons but ima just go melt now

[Paradoxial]

Oh geez! Completely forgot about this RP honestly got busy with school. I'll make a CS tonight if you want another person.

[ClocktowerEchos]

@ParadoxialThe more the merrier I guess

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Aeonumbra@Paradoxial@Raxacoricofallapatorius@Wade Wilson@Raddum@Mercenary Lord

The IC is now open!!!
Don't worry if you don't have a character up tho, its the obligatory "everyone gather around the campfire" post, I'll still be looking at CSs and continueing once most of y'all have a character and made your own first posts. You can also puppet Lewis a little to respond to your characters if they have any interaction like greetings or whatever but if you plan on having something of a small conversation, please do poke me and let me know!

Discord Chat

[MonsieurShade]

Holy shit, never thought I'd see something spawned from /tg/ here given the usual attitude about free form Rp there. Apologies for the short bio, kind of drawing blanks as to what else I'd like to add. I'll be more than happy to try and brainstorm a bit to change it if you'd like.

| NAME |

Jackson "Jak-jak" Anderson

| DEPARTMENT |

Pets & Animals

| AGE |

27

| TRAITS | -

• Seasoned huntsman - Jackson is a hunter through and through. From the very moment he could properly defend himself he's been sent out alongside others of his ilk to either fight back the beasts that roamed the land or bring back anything his people could use. Be it by scavenging or raiding Jackson is more than capable of getting hold of almost anything needed to survive the walmart.
• Attitude - While he's capable of reigning in his animalistic impulses Jackson isn't exactly what one would call a people person. He's crass, can be ill tempered, and is known to occasionally hold petty grudges. While he's not exactly wont to go around making threats and assualting people for every perceived slight things can still escalate pretty quickly if he gets rubbed the wrong way. Further adding to his problem would be the fact that Jackson is extremely Darwinist in his views and is quite vocal about it at times. Suffice it to say, negotions are better left to someone else.
• Bad blood - Between his less than stellar social skills and some prexisting rivalries between departments, Jackson isn't exactly going to be welcomed with open arms into every community, especially those that've been on the receiving end of a raid by him and his kin, whether said raid was successful or not.
• Inhalant abuser - Jackson has developed a rather unhealthy addiction to huffing fumes. Gasoline, lighter fluid, burning shoe polish, whatever. If Jackson can inhale it for a high; he's going to inhale it for a high. This can negatively affect his mind and performance, and lately his nose has begun bleeding, a sign of things to come if he doesn't stop.
• Melee fighter - While the preferred melee weapon for those that inhabit the Pets&Animals department might be swords Jackson has opted to master using the spear instead as they are much easier to craft or come by. With a sturdy spear Jackson can impale his foes up close, keep them at bay, or nail them from afar with a good toss. This also extends to javelins.
• Animal senses - Jackson's senses are extremely acute, with his sense of smell being his strongest. This is as much a curse as it is a blessing due to he fact that his sharpened senses can easily be turned against him if he isn't mindful. As of late his sense of smell has actually been on a slow decline due to his huffing habit.

| EQUIPMENT | -

• Pocket knife - A tool given to his by his father. His most prized possession
• Fishing vest - good for holding multiple items thanks to its many pockets.
• Thresher - His mutant leopard gecko companion and best friend. Small, but has a remarkably strong bite (enough to bruise and draw some blood, not much else). Can act as a warning system for bigger, meaner beasts. Good for pest control.
• Slapdash spear A very sturdy walking stick that's been sharpened on one end. Has coils of rope wrapped around three different sections to allow for a strong grip.
• Canteen - Holds liquid and not much else. Makes for a passable blunt weapon when full of necessary.

| BIOGRAPHY |

There's really nothing all that interesting about Jackson's life. He was born in the store to a pair of bog standard hunters (a supplier and defender, respectively) and picked up the same line of work as parents. After a few years of training with the master hunter Jackson struck out into the only world he knew with little more than the clothes on his back and the small companion animal he'd been granted when he'd earned the right to pick one. More years went by and as Jackson's skills grew he began to alternate between working with groups and going it alone until finally branching off from his tribe and doing his own thing as a bargain hunter once he realized they did the exact same thing and got paid for it.

@MonsieurShade I am going to say right now that Trasher the 8 foot giant gecko is an immediate no go.

@ClocktowerEchos

aw but i wanna ride on a giant gecko

will admit that a gecko growing to that size would die under its own weight though

Just a heads' up that I won't be using the Discord. So if you have any announcements to make later, make sure to post them here.
