[OOC] After Apocalypse (OOC)

[ViKtoricus]

What is a very basic sword weapon? Don't choose a really cool one, just a basic, like a gladius or something.

I have an NPC ready for you. I just need a weapon to sell.

[YoshiSkittlez]

Thinking about joining. Might want to do a brother and a sister duo...thoughts?

[ViKtoricus]

Okay. You can do that.

[YoshiSkittlez]

I'll give this a shot then. Not usually my usual type of RP but what the hell? I'll post my CS's seperately

[Minarawr]

INterested ^^ Can I reserve a spot?

[ViKtoricus]

Spot reserved. Waiting for your CS.

Appearance:


Name:
Deon Desmond Saunders

Birthdate:
October 14th 2987 (23 years old)

Backstory:
Born into a very poor family as the oldest, Deon was forced to start working at a very young age, therefore not able to experience much of any kind of child-hood. He had only his mother and younger sister for family; he had never once met his father getting the rather illustrious nickname ‘bastard child.’ At first he was just a messenger boy, delivering secret messages to organization members that were more than a bit sketchy. The pay was poor and he was lucky if he didn’t get beaten by his boss on a daily basis, even if he delivered on time. As Deon grew up, however, he left the job as a messenger boy and started fighting in the ring and getting paid for it. He found that fighting others was something he enjoyed, even if a bit too much.

Now known somewhat famously throughout the city, he earned a comfortable amount of money to provide for both his mamma and sister, but that was before the war started. Now with the image of his mother torn to shreds under the shrapnel of the structure that was once their home, Deon has become quite vengeful and won't stop at anything to see whoever was responsible dead. And now...with his his sister missing; gone on a trip with her school, he has a new mission. Find Kallian.

Starting weapon:
None

Type of social skill:

Appearance:


Name:
Kallian Sirus Saunders

Birthdate:
April 2nd 2991 (19 years old)

Backstory:
Born into a very poor family as the youngest, Kallian looked up to her brother with a high regard as he was the provider of the family, even at a young age. Because her brother was always out providing for the family, Kallian got the ‘luxuries’ of being able to go to school to learn and socialize. However as Kallian grew older and got a better understanding of just what sort of sacrifices her brother was making for their small family, she took up thievery and would steal loafs of bread from bakeries or an occasional sausage link. She had to learn how to sneak and be quiet very quickly, adapting to being light and quick on her feet. She was then given the satisfaction that she was able to help out her family as well by keeping them fed when her brother couldn’t.

Then the war started, Kallian was off on a school trip when everything went to hell. Now, dragging herself back to her hometown, she has no idea what to expect as far as what remains of her hometown, or her family. Along the way of her traveling back home on foot, she made a home-made dagger by sharpening a flat stone and bound it with twine to a sturdy stick handle. It has proven deadly on a number of occasions as Kallian has had to kill dying animals for food.

Starting weapon:
Dagger

Type of social skill:
Leadership

Type of combat skill:
Stealth

Type of craft skill:
Creating ‘something’ out of ‘nothing’ (A modern-day Macgyver)

Can you please make the crafting skill more precise? It's vague right now.

Aside from that, accepted.

Also, since you have over 200 words in your bio, you have received a 100 dollar bonus from me for you character. She now owns 100 dollars at the start. She may have stolen it from somebody, or whatever. Either way, you have it.

[YoshiSkittlez]

Better?

Also, doesn't Deon get some money? lol

[ViKtoricus]

Deon can't, unless you decide to add 13 more words to your backstory. Right now, it's at 187.

[ViKtoricus]

Okay, Kallian is accepted.

[YoshiSkittlez]

Okay, by my count now Deon has 227 words for his backstory. He also doesn't have a weapon

Oh, I forgot about not having a weapon. Sorry. Okay, he gets 100 dollars for not having a weapon, and another 100 for the backstory. It says in MS word that it's only 187 but whatever. I'll just accept it as 200+. I'm not sure what's going on. Anyway, post an IC now.

I just edited it so that there was more than 200

[ViKtoricus]

Yeah, I rechecked it, so okay.

[Rethel34]

Let's see, there could be a gladius, a claymore (These things are rather large, so I'm not entirely sure about that), a machete, a falchion, a katana, a scimitar, a rapier, just to name a few. Then there's a katar, or punching dagger, (Alternate Design) which would be amazing if dual wielded with the first option. Whichever you think would be most fitting for me to have.

[ViKtoricus]

The katar is weird. If you have swordsmanship as combat skill, I can't have you use katar and be effective at it. I think a machete would suffice.

I own a machete at home. I bought for less than 10 dollars at Walmart and it's crap. I'm choosing it to be your first weapon. But don't worry, I'll give you a good quality one. NPC is coming up.
