@Heat

Perfect! Approved! I shall get him over to the Character Thread at once!

[Mach2]

Ohmahgaaaawd. So many glorious characters. The potential for conflict and interactions here is amazing.

I'm pumped, guys. Still at work, but I can't wait to get home tonight and get some posts up.

[Leb]

@Leb

Welcome Leb! I shall await your CS with anticipation!

[Archangel89]

@Archangel89

Fair enough. Have a good night!

[Saltwater Thief]

This seems like a fun setting. Got room for one more?

[Sypherkhode822]

Got my intro post up. Already I'm gearing up for character interaction. It'll be fun if Kat is busting some crook while Deon's in the ring.
I took the liberty of including Liquid-Knuckles as a legal personal defense item. It's from Snow Crash, so it's cyberpunk AF, and seems like a reasonable intermediary as a self-defense item between your bare hands and an uzi. :)

@Saltwater Thief

Only because your avatar is arguably the best here :D Of course there's room! Feel free to drop in a CS!

@Sypherkhode822

I have no idea what Snow Crash is... o.o lol

[Saltwater Thief]

Excellent, I'll begin brainstorming overnight. Before I make any assumptions, would non-anime art of a sufficient quality be passable for the picture, or would you prefer a live photo above all else?

[YoshiSkittlez]

@Saltwater Thief Do you have an example of this, cuz frankly I can't exactly imagine what you are talking about :p

[Saltwater Thief]

@YoshiSkittlez Something like this;

Hider

That's probably not the picture I'll use, but that's the style I would look for if the answer's yes (a piece of artwork, but strictly avoiding the whole cartoon-y thing that anime usually brings along).

[YoshiSkittlez]

@Saltwater Thief I freaking love that man <3
Ahem... anyway, of course! Some realistic artwork like that is perfectly acceptable. Hell, I even used something similar for Deon, so no worries there :)

[Sypherkhode822]

@YoshiSkittlez

Are you.... I'm not.. Can you be...? *squints confusedly*

( It's one of the most well known Cyberpunk books outside of Neuromancer, written by Neal Stephenson. it's been just as influential, predicting, popularizing or causing, many well known concepts today, like the term 'avatar' for an online profile, internet memes, and Google maps, to name a few things. If you haven't read it, I fully recommend it, since it's a real delight. No, really, drop what you're doing, and read it. It's such a definitive piece in the evolution of cyberpunk as a genre, comparable to Neuromancer and Blade runner/Do androids dream of electric sheep. (though I would say it's more of a post-cyberpunk novel than a traditional cyberpunk novel, but I digress) )

@Sypherkhode822
I totally would drop my laptop and go read it... except we have no bookstores here in this town... and it's 2:41 in the morning, soo... can't really try Fred Meyer's or anything lol (they have shit selection anyway). I'll have to see if I can order it online... cuz that's how we small-town folk do shit 'round here -puts on badass sunglasses-

<Name:/> Ada Fix
<Nickname(s):/> goes by Evelyn Dion
<Gender:/> Female
<Age:/> she appears to be somewhere between 14 and 17 but is actually about to turn 23

<Occupation:/> undercover policewoman
<District:/> alpha zone 4

<Height:/> 5'7"
<Weight:/> 134 lbs

<Appearance:/>

Ada is for the most part thin, but she can still pack a punch though. Lean muscles are hidden with her clothing choices as she intends to deceive everyone that beneath her clothes is anything but toned. Her pixie cut hair gave Ada the illusion of youth and dyed her tips teal to "match the color of her eyes while stating her uniqueness" to society. Raised in a proper home, her clothing choices accentuated her femininity with a bit of flare (and ruffles!).

<Personality:/> To those who don't know of her occupation, she is wild, energetic, and crass with no restraints on her words. Some may think of her as a deluded punk needing attention, others may take her for a rebel sticking it to the man. But for all the front she gives, it's only a part that she plays quite well. This is Evelyn Dion, a rich brat who likes to run away from home some nights to mess around with danger and play in the dark. However, Ada is very much the opposite. She is quite serious, especially when work is involved, and always composed. She isn't much of a "small talk" person and would rather be discussing important things, like cases she could be taking on, and theories about suspects. Her personal life is non-existent as she throws herself into her work and false life.

<Biography:/> Ada was born into a family of law, her father being chief of the police department and her mother a well respected lawyer. They lived comfortably in Alpha Zone 4 never having to worry about money, crime, and whether or not if food would be on the table for the day. As expected, Ada held interest in law and more-so with justice. Academics was a breeze for Ada as she held her place in the top 5% of the student body. However, social interactions eluded her as she was more inclined to studying the behaviours of those around her. She would note the body language and the emotions they displayed to better help her in her career. It had gotten to the point she could understand the type of person they were and predict their reactions in certain situations. It wasn't a perfect technique, but it sure as hell damn useful in her line of work. As Ada aged, she went and got herself into the prestigious police academy and ranked quite highly, unfortunately not at the top of her class as she had hoped for. Years of training and a graduation later, Ada was employed to the undercover police department due to her young appearance. She's still considered a rookie in the ranks but has already busted a couple of dealers and sex offenders in the first year mostly in the beta zones. She has heard of the rumors about "Elevated" and is willing to take it upon herself to investigate the deal with it in her free time if her department decides to not put her on the case.

<Other:/> She dons her police vest beneath layers of clothing giving the illusion of a younger undeveloped body.

@YoshiSkittlez 10-4 Ghost Rider, I'll have that CS made in a timely fashion.

[YoshiSkittlez]

@Leb Mach and I will review your CS here shortly :)

•Devil's Breath a.k.a Scopolamine- Iconic in the hands of the Colombian drug dealers, this odorless and colorless powder is one of the most dangerous drugs out there. Grown from a beautiful white flower, the drug has both amnesiac and suggestive capabilities, with a near instantaneous effect. The result of this combo? A drug that instantly puts someone under the user's control, and who won't remember a second of it the day after. If they live that long.

@Dymion

Not sure who this question is aimed at... maybe me... but does New Ancora even have Colombians? I don't mean that in a racist way, I'm just slightly confusing myself because those who live in New Ancora... well they've been there forever... generations upon generations... no one from the outside comes in and no one from the inside goes out... hmm....

[Darkmatter]

This thing took off like a rocket.

If you're still accepting, I'll begin work on a character.

[Mach2]

@yoshiskittlez Does Ancora need to have Columbians to have Columbian drugs? Philosophical RP questions, lol. I'm sure that the Devil's Breath could exist independently in different regions of the world at the same time.
But to answer the question, I feel like a city like New Ancora might get the occasional immigrant? Maybe even a Columbian. But it'd probably be hella rare and involve massive amounts of paperwork or something.

@darkmatter No kidding. Interest left right and centre. But we haven't cut it off yet! Hop on in. XD
