WELCOME TO PANDORA

PLOT:

As the Vault Hunters travelled through Hero's Pass on their way to stop Handsome Jack, they had high hopes of both a victory against Hyperion dictator and saving Pandora from the monster that he was about to release. In the end though... they were defeated.

The Hunters had no idea how powerful the warrior actually was and after a long gruelling fight they stared failure straight in the face, realising that there was no way they could win against this godlike beast. Wishing sweet revenge on all the Vault Hunters, Jack imprisoned the surviving fighters aboard the Helios to both torture and force them to watch as his dream of cleansing Pandora were finally falling into place.

Moxxi upon hearing about what Jack had done sent out a distress call to the far reaches of space calling for any Vault Hunter who would be willing to take up the cause to stop this insane madness once and for all. A mission to defeat Jack, to save Pandora from annihilation, and return the survivors back to Sanctuary.

THINGS TO KNOW:

  • I will be running this RP as a 1x1x1 to give a good player variety.
  • In order to make things fair for everyone I will be asking for a submission of character sheets in this Interest Check thread and will be choosing the ones that I feel best fit the universe and the posting quality that I am after.
    (I won't have a set closing date, but will close entries when I feel I have achieved what I am looking for)
  • Most of my RPs tend to have a 400-500 word count and I usually post a couple of times a week. No speed posting!
  • I will also be looking for players that are not afraid to take the reigns for a bit and help drive the story, that way I'm not playing narrator and GM, but more collaborating and collectively building a story.
  • We will be starting the RP with the characters landing on Pandora, making their way to a rendezvous point with the people of Sanctuary, and compiling a plan to stop Jack, the Warrior, Hyperion, and hopefully saving the others.
  • Finally, committed players. I understand that sounds pushy, but I've had several RPs that have had players drop out and it's a real annoyance.
CHANGES TO THE WORLD:

Since this is an adaptation of a game into a story, some mechanics will be adjusted to make a bit more sense. As things go on there may be points added.
  • Injuries will be treated as somewhat realistic, ie: No transfusion grenades, auto healing medkits, second winds, etc.
  • Deaths may occur, however at the moment of death the character's conscious is downloaded and implanted within a new Digistructed body back at Sanctuary. Side effects may occur...
  • Slag will be treated as sickness of sorts, slowing down the player and impacting their response time.
  • Shields or weapons with unique abilities might need to be discussed.

consider my interest piqued, have a tanky character that I've tossed around for a borderlands game, but I'd need to flesh him/her a bit. Two words, Gattling good.
