[OOC] Overgrown (A Green Apocalypse)

[Jack]

Name: Azrael Ryu
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Equipment: Azrael's main weapon of choice is a matte black Remington ACR equipped with a variable zoom scope. However, with the state the world is in right now ammunition is increasingly hard to come by and although Azrael has enough in his bag to last him a good while he knows he will soon run out. Thus, he carries a Machete around with him too for when the inevtiable does happen. Plus it's a much better close quarters weapon too. Azrael carries all of his supplies that he can scavenge in a satchel bag.
Personality: Azrael is very independent, relying on nobody but himself to survive. He knows that in the overgrown wasteland the world has turned to that this is the best way to be and the best way to stay alive. He rarely lets his guard down to anyone, only to those who earn his trust and earning his trust isn't exactly easy. He can be somewhat over protective with people he cares for though, often putting himself in the line of danger to protect them. Azrael is a fairly calm and intelligent person and is very good at making quick decisions on the spot. He also handles pressure very well as a result.
Other: Azrael is a talented mechanic.

A gun blade? You can't be serious. As far as I know this is two/three years after present day when the Judgement happened. I don't think we would be making gun blades just yet. But meh it is the Gms call, I kinda find it difficult to understand how it would work.

[Geoffrey Silt]

FAK DOUBLE POSTED.

[jimi87smith]

Mehh, I agree with Geoffrey. The gunblade is too futuristic and out-of-place. It doesn't belong. But it is the GM's call...

[Swarley]

I don't think a Gunblade really works in the context of the RP, sorry. I mean I know it's kinda sci-fi but more realistic hard sci-fi than this. So if you can change that from your character then it should be fine, because the rest looks fine to me.

[Geoffrey Silt]

Yeah yeah definetly good char although gun blades r2OP4me

[Swarley]

I'm just going to notify those involved that I put my two characters up in the OP.

[Jack]

Fair enough. I did think I was slightly pushing it with a Gunblade but it was worth a try. I'll work on editing it.

[XxLyraxX]

I finished my cs, is the equipment alright?

[LittleRedPanda]

Sorry about my lack of CS post yet. I'm still planning on posting a female. Hopefully sometime this weekend

Name: Dione Whitton
Gender: Female
Age: 26
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Equipment: A good sturdy knife, snare wire, and a water "bottle" made of a treated deer stomach, as well as a very simple and primitive blow-dart and some homemade darts made of sharpened twigs. One last thing. A mask. It's dyed a few reds and blues and greens, narrow with a long face and bulging angry eyes, with "hair" hanging down the back made of various animal skins sewn together. It's partially an intimidation tactic, partially a superstition/good luck object and partially to avoid being recognized by "bad guys".
Personality: Defensive, self-conscious, sometimes unnervingly quiet, observant. Prefers showing over telling. Very superstitious, believes in spirits that want appeasement. She is the stealthy type, a hider, and does not enjoy confrontation, but she has staked out a little "territory" as her own, in which all the food is "hers". She'll probably warn someone to get out before she moves to physical action.
History: Her mother died shortly after giving birth to her, and her father even before that. Unusually, she was raised by her grandparents, who told her about spirits and firmly believed that the apocalypse happened because the spirits became sick of Mankind's hubris; they convened and struck to force humans back into the normal web of life. When they inevitably died, she built them a pyre, burned them and moved on to where she is now: wearing ash on her skin to keep the bugs off and the animals from smelling her, living in the second floor of a broken-down building and using a hole in the ceiling to vent out the smoke from her fire. Anyone in her general range might find animal organs tied to branches and things, usually as homage to the spirits. She's painted animals and humans and animal-human mixes with charcoals on the yellowing walls, and added color with crushed-up clay and flower/berry dyes.
Other: She's swift and agile, and good at camouflage. She'd use her wits in a fight, because she is not very physically strong.

Thank you!

I really hate that I want to join and make a character and everything, but have so many RPs already. ><
But if you don't require frequent, complex posts (which you shouldn't, given that this is Free), I could do this. Maybe. Making no promises.

Also, what are the chances you'd allow a cannibal in? Not like an "only eats humans and has no sanity left" one, but one who would be the first to suggest it if there wasn't enough to feed a whole group of people? And has bits of human-jerky?

History: Kimberly was a normal teen before the green happend, she had a okay family life with her mother and little brother, they surived in a group of other from the same apartment building she lived in, that until her home was raided and the much stronger men who raided took her, her brother gavin and her mother captive in exchange for not killing the rest of the group she was in. alot of bad things happend to Kim over that time, she lost her mother and brother but was kept, until one day when everyones guard was down, she killed them in their sleep and just started walking.

[LittleRedPanda]

Name: Arryn (Erin) Lovette

Gender: female
Age: 21
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Equipment: A compound hunting bow and arrows, a hunting knife, six bottle of water, some beef jerky, and a secret stash of alcohol that she's hidden.
Personality: Arryn is fun and bubbly, but she can be wickedly sarcastic and distrustful. She has a temper for sure and will not hesitate to kick some ass if provoked.
History: (Optional) Arryn was in the city studying to get a degree when the day came. The day where people just stopped existing. When phones went off the grid and lights shut out. She never really left the city after it happened, just assuming her parents probably were dead already. Since then she'd been sheltering herself, scavenging and hunting whenever she can.

Both characters are accepted, I think I'll make the IC post later tonight if everyone's okay with that (Not everyone has to start playing right away and you can drop into the story anytime, but I do kinda want to get the ball rolling)

I think it should be fine, as long as the character has more to it than just the cannibal aspect then I think I could let it in, seeing as everyone is just struggling to survive.

Name: Amy Clacher
Gender: Female
Age: 28
Sexual Orientation: Pansexual
Equipment:
-A cleaver
-A crudely made shortbow, with a handful of arrows with bone arrowheads
-A frying pan
-A small piece of flint
-Small leather bag of human jerky
-Small bag of fresh haggis
-Leather, hand-made backpack, though it's completely full of just what she has.
Personality: She's not serious, really, but it's hard to tell with her sense of humor. She is much happier when there are people around, but if there isn't enough food for all of them, she's the first to suggest eating the least useful. She has yet to eat a child; they're important to there being a future, and she doesn't want to be the one to prevent that. She feeds any children she sees, and ones that are alone, she takes to people who can take care of them...unless their sanity is questionable.
History:
-She has eaten many, many people. There's a chance some of them were family (hers, or someone else's).
Other:

Anything else you'd recommend?
