Okay, there we go! I have my post! I'm pretty sure it's the longest of the 4, but I hope you all enjoy it! Give me feedback, if will please!

This RP reminds me of Gantz.

Next thing you know a strange black ball is gonna appear in the center of the room and dispense futuristic armour and weapons.

You have my interest.

[Midori]

I will admit that this roleplay is heavily inspired by Gantz but I've taken plenty of liberties to make it my own. I also plan on making this a lot less vague about the driving force behind the whole situation. If you'd like I can wait a bit before my next post and give you time to make a CS (assuming everyone else isn't going to riot ) and get in on the the first mission so you don't have to wait until the next mission to join the RP.

[DJAtomika]

Yeah, I'll try to get a sheet up soon-ish.

@Midori

[Midori]

You guys are pretty active. Not sure if I should drag out the scene a bit to give DJAtomika time to make a CS before we start the first mission or move the story along so I'll put it to a vote. Let me know what you guys want to do.

@Midori I'd appreciate it if everyone slowed down for DJ, and myself included. You know that I can post quickly, I usually don't.

[Firecracker_]

sorry m80's, I'll admit I am growing impatient but I will hold off for now, the more the merrier.

[Kenny1]

I can hold off on replying while we wait.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA PEOPLE RUSHING ME I GOTTA WRITE THIS QUICK D:

[DJAtomika]

Name: Gokyo Itachi
Alias/es: -
Age: 36

Height: 6'
Weight: 170 lbs
Complexion: Tan
Eye Color: Brown
Hair Color: Dark brown
Apparel: Simple blue tee shirt, brown leather biking jacket, blue jeans and work boots.

Personality: Itachi is outgoing, pleasant and quite friendly, though in new situations he is rather awkward and shy. He is also quite analytical beneath his soft, charming personality, as well as calculated and precise from his years spent working as a crane operator.

History: Itachi is your average American blue-collar worker, holding a steady job as a freight mover in a shipyard in Tokyo. He's the one that operates the huge crane that lifts and moves containers within the freight yard itself. A crane driver, if you will.

Born to a very average family, Itachi took after his father, a rough and tumble maintenance worker, in life and its intricacies. He was what you'd call a simple man with simple dreams: to have a stable job, a family and a house all of his own. Obviously working in the regular blue-collar industry wasn't enough for that, but with the added risk of, say, heavy duty machinery and whatnot, that would be more than enough. Being a modern-day dockworker was just what he needed to live his simple dream life.

Now obviously you didn't need a whole lot of academic qualifications to become a dock worker, but Chris powered through school anyway, getting himself good enough grades each year, and enough to graduate respectably. After that, he took on a life in simple work, helping neighbours move things, taking up part-time jobs in groceries and warehouses as heavy lifters, until his father recommended him to work at the Port of Tokyo. His dad knew the foreman of the freight yard, and since his son was adapted well enough into the simple life, he agreed to take him on. For months Itachi was trained and instructed on the use of the various vehicles and machines within the shipyard; forklifts, heavy duty cranes, how to handle a container on a winch, the whole nine yards. After two years he was easily one of the finest crane operators in the yard.

If you had to ask him what would be the highest point of his life, it would be when he married his wife, Hanao Osaka. They lived together for two years before having their first child, a son by the name of Gin. Three years after that, they had a daughter, Ichi. They moved into a small semi-detached house near the docks; convenience for the father, mostly, but with schools nearby for the kids and work in short order for mum.

Other: Itachi very regularly totes a brown leather messenger bag. Within it is his wallet, cellphone, personal organiser and a pocket knife.

I'm sorry I can't provide the huge-ass histories that you all have. I kinda wrote this in a hurry and I really wanted to play and flesh out an average joe in a very profound situation.

[Midori]

I guess you probably didn't get the memo but I'm not accepting any more foreign characters since they wouldn't have found themselves in this situation. Everything else about him is fine but he needs to be Japanese. Sorry...

[DJAtomika]

Edited.

[Midori]

Aside from having odd names for your family I don't see anything wrong with this sheet. You're accepted. Now please go and die

Your first post should include your death and then being transported to the room with everyone else. Also, go ahead and post this CS in the characters tab for future reference.

[DJAtomika]

@Midori I may be Asian but I'm not Japanese lol

Name: Karime Ochiro

Alias/es: Stage name - Haruka

Age: 21

Height: 5'2

Weight: 121lbs

Complexion: Fair

Eye Color: Teal

Hair Color: Dyed Teal, Natural is black

Apparel: Stage clothing usually consists of beautifully handcrafted halter tops with large, puffy short skirts and handgloves. Wears a headset microphone and knee-high stilleto boots. Day to day she'll wear a similar outfit, with a normal, flouncy skirt and haltertop shirt. She usually wears gorgeous and expensive sunglasses and a sunhat to keep her identity under wraps from fans, and also wears pumps when walking around town. Her favorite accessory is a necklace on a thin chain around her neck, bearing a small round locket with a picture of her baby sister and her.

Personality: While Karime off the stage is very private, shy, and lacking in self confidence, her stage persona, Haruka, is the complete opposite. For the fans and the cameras, Haruka is brimming with self confidence and happiness, always pledging to be fashion forward and reaching for the stars in more ways than one. Karime, on the other hand, is often hard to talk to. She's twitchy, always looking over her shoulder in paranoia and when she feels pressured, breaks down. She shuts down in the face of difficulty or problems, with intense social anxiety that makes her hardly able to function.

History:
Karime Ochiro was born in Kyoto, Japan with the aid of a midwife. Ever since she was little, she loved to sing to herself and found herself too shy to try to show others--until she met Himika. Himika was a neighbor girl that loved picking flowers with Karime and telling stories about how they had traveled all over Japan before coming to move near Karime. Karime spent every moment she could with Himika between classes, studying and chores, which her parents always watched her play fondly with. However, once Karime turned 8, her parents became concerned and confronted Karime about her friendship with Himika. Naturally, in confusion, Karime defended her friend, clueless as to why her parents would suddenly take issue with her being around. The argument became heated, her parents throwing confusing sentences at her like "You're too old for an imaginary friend." and "Himika isn't real, you need to make friends with other children."

A little later, Karime was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Able to receive necessary treatment, she was told to take prescription medication in order to make her hallucinations go away. She was hesitant, and most of all distraught. She told Himika, in tears, that her parents said they couldn't be friends anymore. While the hallucination initially laughed it off, she later became angry when Karime persisted in what she was saying, and then violent. While Karime took her pills as instructed, Himika's persona became distorted, vengeful, telling Karime to kill herself, to hurt her parents and other children... and eventually she disappeared. The attacks left Karime in a depression, and as she advanced into middle school, she became a loner.

One day, having had to stay after class to help clean up the classroom, Karime thought she was alone and began singing along to a soft ballad. However, one of the girls had come back to retrieve a forgotten item and heard her. She applauded when Karime had finished singing, leaving Karime incredibly embarassed, but she was quickly told not to worry about it, and that her singing was amazing. The girl pointed her to Idol auditions in the area and, with much pushing, she nervously went to try out. Shakily, she walked into see the board of directors that she would perform for. With wobbling knees, she belted out the best song she knew, and as she took on an audience, a feeling of confidence bloomed in her chest, causing her showmanship to improve tenfold naturally in front of them. Stunned by her performance, she was immediately signed a contract and began her career as an Idol under the name "Haruka."

After being transformed with a new look, Haruka immediately began travelling all over Japan doing concerts, going onto television shows, reality show segments, guest starring on films, the whole shebang. After years upon years of high stardom, her rise has began to crumble after a recent scandal revealing her relationship with a talent director that had seduced her at a party when she was nineteen years old. She still has very many loyal fans regardless and has manage to make very many other starry-eyed friends. But when the lights go down and the fans go home, she's left alone on stage in the darkness. That depression she felt as a teen never really went away and with the slander coming her way, she started having more mental breakdowns off camera and one on camera that made her lose even more fans, and caused her to escape the spotlight entirely out of her persona for a solid three months now. Then, as Karime, she was trying to go back to her penthouse by using the subway when a group of rough housing boys accidentally pushed her onto the subway tracks. Though she scrambled to get up, it was too late. The subway decapitated her as she let out a choked scream and left her head rolling down the tunnels, the expression of horror still left on her face. In her final moments, she saw a twisted, older version of Himika grinning at her in front of the train.

The Idol Haruka was deemed missing.

Other:
Some of her music that topped Japans charts and some that went international
