[OOC] Streets of Champaign- A Call Of Cthulhu based Adventure!

[Das Auto]

Still awaiting my approval.

[KOgaming]

Bumping for the day.

[Lord Orgasmo]

@Das Auto Right. Forgot about that. My bad. Approved. Go ahead and post in the Character tab.

[KOgaming]

@Lord Orgasmo

I've got a different character concept in mind that might be better than the current one I have. Is it alright if I changed my character? I don't want to play multiple characters for one RP.

[Lord Orgasmo]

@KOgaming let's hear it.

[KOgaming]

Appearance

Name: Gabriel Grant

Age: 19

Occupation: Missionary

Skills: Religion, Money, First Aid, Choreography, Singing

Faults: Physically Frail, Easy to Frighten, Naive, Creationist

History: Gabriel was born to Mormon parents in the Mormon city of Salt Lake City. He is a Mormon, and an enthusiastic one at that. His parents and his church were major players in shaping his life and he appreciates everybody within his extended biological family and his church, though many view Gabriel as being obnoxious. His parents were fairly reasonable people, small business owners. His mother was an accountant and taught him a good deal about finance as did his church. He is friendly enough, and sometimes comes off as a little too friendly.

Gabriel had few school friends. He did, of course, attend a parochial school which taught religion as much as it did other subjects. He spent a lot of time with his elementary school choir teacher, who helped Gabriel especially with hitting high notes, and Gabriel still misses him. High school was more or less a blur to Gabriel, though it was where he met his partner on his Mission.

When it came time to do his missionary work, Gabriel's dream was to go to Florida. He begged for days, though in the end, he and his partner were sent to Illinois, and Gabriel couldn't complain, as he preached the Lord's word.

After the lock down, or really right as it happened, Gabriel's partner on the mission died, killed mysteriously when Gabriel turned around, then back to notice his partner's body bisected cleanly from the waist. Needless to say, he ran as far as possible and hid somewhere.

Equipment: A fanny pack, several copies of The Book of Mormon, a wallet with a good deal of money in it, a can of pepper spray, a whistle

Feel free to add anything else you feel necessary.

[Lord Orgasmo]

@KOgaming Missionary ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). If you want to change, go on ahead.

[Jarrid]

Name: John Savage

Age: 28

Appearance: 5'11 Tall, medium build, shaven head with medium bushy brown beard, resting face is a squinting, serious expression.

Occupation: Sporting Goods shop clerk.

Skills: An encyclopedic knowledge of firearms and ballistics
Bureaucratic and filing skills
A keen jogger
Good with locks, tools and general mechanical/electrical items
Academically smart
Fishing

Faults: A coward, through and through
Selfish and self interested
Resents others easily, generally bitter individual
Not above criminal or reprehensible acts, as long as he can get away with it
No stomach for gore/violence




History: John was Born in the nearby town of Bloomington and moved to Champaign as a child with his Mother. He grew up on Paul Avenue in a small, single storied house and lives there still with his elderly Mother who has the early onset of dementia. He never had many friends as a child and has almost none now as an adult, leading a reclusive life between work, home and the grocery store. Life hasn't had much excitement to offer John, and he has grown used to that and has been more than happy for it to stay that way. When speaking with other people, his store-clerk politeness easily breaks down with the slightest nudge to reveal the self loathing, despicable repressed human being underneath. John is ignored by his co-workers, who he has no affection for, and lives only for the weekends when he gets to spend time alone, fishing in the local lakes. He has become the store's resident Gun Smith, owing to his natural ability with small mechanical objects, although John has never fired a gun in anger. He avoided conscription to join the recent Vietnam war by claiming a leg injury, affecting a limp even to this day as he has lived with the lie for so long.

On the day the military came and the town was put on lock down, his store was looted by a large group of angry, desperate locals. john joined in the looting, stole a whole duffel bags worth of firearms and fled home, where he has stayed ever since. He has spent the last few days keeping his mother quiet and lying low, waiting for things to blow over...

Equipment: Keeps a colt .45 in his jacket with a few spare magazines and a pump action shotgun next to the sofa. He has kept a medium sized rucksack in his bedroom filled with food and ammunition as well as a few other basics in case he is forced to dash from the house at any point.

Hi guys, first time poster on this server! Been part of plenty of RP's before, fancied creating a 'bit-of-a-dick' character for a change! Looking forward to it.

[Lord Orgasmo]

@Jarrid I'd say "Approved" and "Post in the character tab" but it looks like you've already done that.

On a side note, the group is now full, and IC will be up tomorrow.

[The Fated Fallen]

Turd, as a consequence for being lazy and not uploading sooner sudden events mean I won't be able to until sunday so... I'm an idiot in summary

@Lord Orgasmo

Thanks, apologies I'm still catching up on the forum rules and should have waited to post in the character tab!

I should be around to post tomorrow. How often will we be expected to add? I should be able to contribute every two days or so.

[Lord Orgasmo]

@Jarrid Just post when you can. I don't expect people to be there every second of every day. I mean, I will be, but you don't have to

[Lord Orgasmo]

@Jarrid@Pleek@KOgaming@Das Auto@Remipa Awesome IC is up bois. Let's get this party started!

[Jarrid]

i suddenly feel very dirty playing my character. He's naturally turning into a right dick xD

[Jarrid]

Is there anywhere you want our characters to be heading or doing at the moment? Can't help but notice Hunter hasn't made an appearance yet...

[Lord Orgasmo]

@Jarrid Right now, your characters can do just about whatever they want, however, soon enough I'll start to sprinkle in some Eldritch elements. I'm mainly waiting for everybody to be in roughly the same area.

[Shoe Thief]

I am posting now, work has had me working really late the last few days so doing anything has been a total pain. I should have a post up with in the hour!

[Jarrid]

Anyone planning to push this story along at all? I'm happy to continue but feel a bit aimless at the moment. It would be good to have some direction or guidance on how we want the story to go?

[Shoe Thief]

I could try some stuff, my last (And only post so far) Was just to help set things up for my character with some world interactions.

[Jarrid]

I've pm'd the thread gm about this and had no reply. Have to say it looks like he's abandoned this story sadly. I'll be moving in to another one I think. It's been fun guys!
