[OOC] Oasis (Survivors Wanted join anytime)

[BeanieBaggie]

Ok, now begins our wait for more survivors! we need 2 or 3 more before I can accept another husk.

[Shoe Thief]

So Many Husks...I really hope that they are all bad shots and that I can pull of the badassness.

[BeanieBaggie]

I imagine mine would prefer melee/close combat. But, don't worry, we won't start til you at least have a buddy or two.

[SilverWolfAngel]

Ai, ai, mine too, I mean sure, she's a scout, and can see far, but that don't mean she has any accuracy (Although she has a bit). Also notice her preferred weapon that gives her her nickname? Yup spiked gloves, not a very long range weapon. :)

(Wait, let me go find the definition of scout, kay?)

[Shoe Thief]

...Ya..not screwed at all...*starts to hide in corner with hammer*

[Zetsuko]

i don't think that hammer will save you...

[Shoe Thief]

YES IT WILL DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE HAMMER! *throws hammer at you but it misses and flies out window* ...Dammit.

[BeanieBaggie]

yeah son, that wont save ya. Get the axe, that'll do a bit better.
muhahahahaa

[Shoe Thief]

*pulls out M249 S.A.W. and puts on sunglasses*

[BeanieBaggie]

....Yeeeah, that might work. just a bit.

[SilverWolfAngel]

Ohh man …… I do not believe I managed to forget to add this and that I missed that I hadn't added it. (Arrgghh)

Anyway Exo's CS was also supposed to contain this;

Extras: Pyromaniac, …just …well, …let’s not talk about it. She also absolutely adores music (once she has a soul), it is one of the things that can pull out her emotional side. She wears thin fingerless fighting gloves with inch-long spikes sticking out, in the place of a knuckle-duster, hence her nickname of ‘Spikes’.

How did I manage to miss it?
Actually don't answer that.

@BeanieBaggie so yeah, I would like to add to my CS, that alright?

[BeanieBaggie]

Ah, go edit the skeleton. Like, for example if this were a skeleton, and I neededto make an edit
~~~~~
I'd put the edit here, or mark it

EDIT: like this

yeah, go for it!

[Aqutanama]

I feel that the soulless people should have a different name. Calling them Husks makes me think they have souls... or did I miss something. Perhaps we could call them Ghouls? As they would probably be somewhat mindless in the sense that they follow the orders of Oasis and don't have free will...

Again I may have overlooked something in my quick reading. +0 skill

[BeanieBaggie]

Nah, I thought husks fit, cause they're a shell of a person- like a corn husk is the shell for corn. Ghouls makes it feel as if they are/were dead, which they're not (not physically, at least).

I could call them lawyers, though. badum tss

[SilverWolfAngel]

Politicians. call them politicians.

[Aqutanama]

also how many years after the incident is this?

[SilverWolfAngel]

I already asked that question here;
http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76273-oasis-open-ignore-reply-numbers/ooc

and the answer was;

Hm, good question! I figured about 2 generations, so maybe between 80-100 years.

[Aqutanama]

ohh right thanks@SilverWolfAngel I actually remember reading that now LOL

[SilverWolfAngel]

He has a rectangular face with a distinct, slightly sharp chin and a well-built jaw line. His dark eyes are average in size and spaced evenly apart, sitting below harry unkempt eyebrows that seemed to curve as a natural extension of his broad, decently shaped nose. He usually keeps his mouth closed, but when he smiles it seems to brighten even the unbearable darkness within everyone. His Longhair reaches the bottoms of his back and graze his butt crack and is usually neatly tied and worn back to reveal his forehead. He wears a dark red jacket over his shoulders, it has somewhat dirty buttons and once belonged to his older brother; the scarf around his neck is tied so that the ruffles perfectly filled the space left open by his coat, but only when he is cold. Otherwise the scarf if tied so that it is behind him dangling. He walks straight, his face held neutral in a steady gaze, and has an air of charm that isn’t obvious. He usually wears dark colors, anything containing Red, Blue, Black, Green and Purple. But in the world of Oasis he has changed a bit. He doesn’t rely on his brothers Jacket anymore as it makes him a viable target. His scarf is usually wrapped around his torso like a belt. The colors he mixes himself up with these days match the terrain within the area… sand.

Hair: Long dark brown somewhat curly and when the sun hits it just right blood red.
Eyes: Brown
Others: Glasses and Big Brothers Jacket and a wide brimmed Hat.

Bio

Bio:
His life was like any other being raised as a survivor. He had two older brothers an older sister and both his mom and dad. Which was surprising to most people. Most families died off or were torn apart from loss of loved ones. The real split happened many years before he was actually born. Most families either went into the Oasis’ or split up. Some believed that giving up their soul was too high a price, while others were only afraid they would die in the harsh new world.

His parents had taught each of their children everything they had learned throughout the years. Which was loads. His parents were second generations after the Oasis Fracture. Being the youngest sibling made life even harder as his siblings would torment him. Well, they had their reasons. They wanted their brother to be able to handle himself. His life was nothing but training, training and… you guessed it… more training.

He had learned many lost martial arts from his parents: Brazilian jiu jitsu, Krav Maga, Aikido, bullet ballet(Gun kata), Muay thai, Kajukenbo, Judo, Jeet Kune Do, Bugei, Bujutsu, budō, bushidō and ninjutsu. These fighting styles were most of the ones his siblings used on him during his small and insignificant life. That and his parents training… together it was too much for the small child. His mind shattered at some point and be became more internally focused. He didn’t like his family and felt disconnected from them because of the harsh upbringing.

His father was more into the survival aspect than his mother. He would go out and scout ruins left by the fracture. He also loved his guns and ended up taking Jonathan with him on trips. For whatever reason he liked how Jonathan was cold and calculated at time. Although it frightened him sometimes it really helped them both bond. Soon after his father never returned from scavenging. His older brother took the mantle and again Jonathan was taken out… probably because he knew the areas out there more than his brother.

That was one reason. The other was that Jonathan had become a lean mean fighting machine. Once again he grew close to his brother and again on the one mission he went alone he was lost. Jonathan felt that he had become cursed to lose anyone he went out into the wastelands with. So he started to venture out alone and picked up contracts from other survival settlements. One such contract told him to capture a “HUSK.” Alive. This was a difficult take… for most. It seemed almost like trapping a child when he did. For it he got some rations and water from the settlement… although it looked more like a research facility.

Even though he wasn’t versed in how those things worked his father did tell him what items were worth anything. So he knew medical and scientific devices as well as a plethora of other rare and unique things to collect on his scavenging. It had been some time since he heard any word from the facility and when he went to check it was destroyed. He scavenged what little there was and left. The sands would consume them and be their grave… he didn’t mind.

Personality

Personality:
His primary mode of living is focused internally, where he takes things in primarily via intuition. His secondary mode is external, where he deals with things according to how he feels about them, or how they fit with his personal value system. He is gentle, caring, complex and a highly intuitive individual. Artistic and creative, he lives in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. He places great importance on having things orderly and systematic in his outer world.

He puts a lot of energy into identifying the best system for getting things done, and constantly define and re-define the priorities in his life. On the other hand, he operates within himself on an intuitive basis which is entirely spontaneous. He usually knows things intuitively, without being able to pinpoint why, and without detailed knowledge of the subject at hand. He is usually right, and he usually knows it. Consequently, he puts a tremendous amount of faith into his instincts and intuitions. This is something of a conflict between the inner and outer worlds, and may result in him not being as organized as other Judging people tend to be. Or we may see some signs of disarray in an otherwise orderly tendency, such as a consistently messy desk.

He has an uncanny insight into people and situations. He gets "feelings" about things and intuitively understand them. As an extreme example, he claims experiences of a psychic nature, such as getting strong feelings about there being a problem with a loved one, and discovering later that they were in a car accident. This is the sort of thing that other types may scorn and scoff at, and the he himself does not really understand his intuition at a level which can be verbalized. Consequently, he is protective of his inner self, sharing only what he chooses to share when he chooses to share it. He is deep, complex individual, who is quite private and typically difficult to understand. He holds back parts of himself, and can be secretive.

But he is as genuinely warm as he is complex. He holds a special place in his heart of people who he is close to, who are able to see their special gifts and depth of caring. He is concerned for people's feelings, and tries to be gentle to avoid hurting anyone. He is very sensitive to conflict, and cannot tolerate it very well. Situations which are charged with conflict may drive him, from normally peaceful, into a state of agitation or charged anger. He tends to internalize conflict into their bodies, and experience health problems when under a lot of stress.

Because he has such strong intuitive capabilities, he trusts his own instincts above all else. Although if he believes in the capabilities of someone else, he may take their word over his instincts and tell them how he feels. He is rarely at complete peace with himself - there's always something else he should be doing to improve himself and the world around him. He believes in constant growth, and doesn’t often take time to revel in their accomplishments. He has a strong value systems, and needs to live his life in accordance with what he feels is right. In deference to the Feeling aspect of his personality, he is in some ways gentle and easy going. Conversely, he has very high expectations of himself, and frequently of his family. He doesn’t believe in compromising his ideals.

He is a natural nurturer; patient, devoted and protective. He would make a loving parent and would have strong bonds with his offspring. He would have high expectations of his children, and push them to be the best that they can be. This can sometimes manifest itself in him being hard-nosed and stubborn. His children would probably get devoted and sincere parental guidance, combined with deep caring.

In the workplace, the he usually shows up in areas where he can be creative and somewhat independent. He has a natural affinity for art, and excels in sciences, where he makes use of his intuition. He is an individual who is gifted in ways that other are not. Life is not necessarily easy for him, but he is capable of great depth of feeling and personal achievement.
