Resistance: Fall Of Man RP

Aw... I just lost the oldest character slot T.T

Lol, I'm kidding, welcome to the game Comrade Petrovskii

Resistance: Fall Of Man RP

I'm down with Nex's idea, it puts me in mind of the Grubs and Glowies from Gears of War (Only played the first Resistance game, but I'm a master with Gears and it sounds similar).

I mean, we're setting this in an alternate time-line to the games, I'm assuming from what I've read insofar, meaning that Nex's suggestion for ferals could have occured earlier on that it did in the games, if anything, it'd add a new dynamic to the RP, like the addition of the Lambent in Gears of War three, it'll serve to take some of the heat off of the human/cloven characters when fighting one of the two forms of Chimera, but completely change the team dynamic if they were to take an attack from Militant Chimera and Ferals on different fronts.

tl;dr - I'm game.

EDIT: Also, Lettie, it's MarKus not Marcus :p

Okay that makes sense now. SO ANDAE. Since you trained me in combat and everything I feel that perhaps our characters could have a sort of affectionate-banter type of relationship-- With Frakie's personality, she would have given any authority figures, namely Marcus, complete and utter hell, but with her extensive skills, Marcus would have begrudgingly put up with her attitude, while keeping her in line where it was needed. Because of this assumed backstory, perhaps they could give each other shit, but honestly have admiration for each other, in one form or another.

That was kinda what I was aiming for, but, perhaps with his caring moments, she gets it a little more than the others, with Markus being one of the older members of the unit, he could take on the role of a father(esque) figure towards Frankie and the others, but having trained her personally, he'd give her special treatment (And therefore, more shit in the process.)

I'll take your word on it, Andae.Kyle - hopefully we'll all be able to RP at similar times, then! I know Lettie is in California, 8 hours behind us, and I think Sera is in the Midwest, though I may be completely wrong there. I think she's someplace beginning with an M. Hmmm.

If I recall, Sera's 5 behind us, and I'm on pretty much all day every day, bar weekends, I'm normally gaming with friends.

There was rivalry between the SAS and the Para's way back when, when the SAS were first formed, they accepted only human tanks, and the slightly deranged (The guy that formed them being tapped in the head himself) and as such, a lot of the Para's that applied, were refused.

Also, Kyle... Yes, there are two brit's here, and we're the sexiest of the lot xD

Yeah, it just allows for the relationships to be a bit more dynamic - some are based off of previous knowledge, some are brand new... your character is essentially the opposite of mine, in many ways, so it could be interesting if there was a distrusting dynamic between the two at first. We'll see how it goes, though, I'm just trying to think up ideas.

No, that sounds pretty much spot on, since the SAS see the Para's as beneath them, and the Para's are somewhat jealous, so, the rivalry is already there, whether they knew each other prior to the game or not, perhaps, despite their former affiliations, they have a more 'friendly' rivalry, as opposed out-right competition they would have had between one another at first encounter within the RP, due to previous knowledge of the other's existences.

Note: I'll need Andae's permission first, but as my guy is a paratrooper - infamous for being part of the Special Forces Support Group - and his is SAS, perhaps they can recognise eachother once they meet?

That's perfectly fine, 'son' xD

I've pre-contacted and gained permission for the part involving Lettie's character, so, I don't see why James and Markus can't know each other.

Markus "Mark" Dean

Name: Markus "Mark" Dean

Age: 36

Species: Cloven

Alignment: British Army/Operation Morningstar (Chaotic Good)

Skills/Strengths: Mark can take almost anything thrown at him, a former warehouse worker, this man has the power of someone double his own size, and he's not exactly small. Along with his physical strength and resistance, the man is mentally solid, confident in his own abilities and always more than happy to kick a Chimeran soldier in the teeth.

Appearance:

Weaknesses: While the man is confident, he gets over confident, and often abandons his weapons to take a more personal approach with his enemies, putting himself, and his comrades, at risk.

Personality: Mark is, quite simply, a cold blooded killer, hotheaded and brash, he's known to bull-rush into any situation, in extension, he's also forgetful, specially with the recent visions he's received, despite resisting the infection, he's more prone to Chimeran behaviour than the others of his kind, his premature charging being a classic example. He can, however, have his calmer moments, in which he'll take care of his allies in their times of need, be it a physical, or emotional issue.

Background: A former warehouse worker at the docks of Portsmouth, Markus spent his teenage years spending all day every day heavy lifting, in the process, he built a large muscle mass and a resistance to external trauma, suffering only a few broken bones, including his right shoulder in his life. The injury making him left-handed, inhibiting his motor skills, being forced to use his less dominant side for hand-based tasks, this affliction has remained ever since, and he is therefore more suited to weaponry that doesn't require him to shoulder the weapon.

Upon joining the British Army at the age of 22 through their reserves consignment. Mark set into the rigorous training required with the gusto of two people, the determination of a squad of special forces troopers and the foresight to keep his head down in the process. After two years, he was invited to train with the SAS, he took the opportunity and served with them through the dying years of World War 2, he subsequently fought at the beginning of the Chimeran invasion, only 5 years later. Ending in him being infected, falling into a coma, and experiencing visions of the likes he could never imagine.

Upon recovery, the golden-eyes tank of a man re-signed with the Army, using his past experience as a stepping stone, finding that his shoulder had healed and his physical performance had improved greatly. Upon regaining his position as a Sergeant, Markus trained as an instruction officer, and trained many young, new soldiers, one of whom being Frances Hale herself, the both of them being recruited into Operation Morningstar at almost exactly the same time.

There we go, nothing special, but not too dull, I hope, any edits, feel free to say so, I was going to state his usual weapon set, but, I'll save that for IC, also, just to get this post up to 2K char's, his chronology may seem off, I'll go into more details IC, it's easier tbh

Resistance: Fall Of Man RP

Yeah, same here... It's good to see that people are still here, even with the issues.

And I've been good, not very busy, but good, yourself?
