Apothecary

Adventures with Apo!

Not really. If we are going to do a classical fantasy, it be probably some medieval setting with humans, magical tree-huging elves and greedyy dwarves. But I am open to other ideas.

Adventures with Apo!

Bumpitybump.

The king is dead, long live the king!

Intrigues are always intriguing! Here, take my interest.

Shattering of Tranquility

From what Hunter told him, his homeplanet looked like a literal hell. Living in the caves, unthinkable temperatures on the surface... it all made sense. Now if he just added a few stories about strange creatures with hoofs and horns and Farid would start with praying. He wanted to make some witty remark about it, but he decided to rather not. Farid himself was a little bit touchy when it came to his homeplanet and didn´t want to offend his roommate so early.

It also seemed that Hunter had even more fighting experience than Farid. He actually fought again UP-DC, not some desert raiders with no real weaponry that couldn´t even scratch the mechs. It had to be fighting one whole new level and Farid wanted to know more about it. He was interested in what was it like, to fight the "real" deal. He wanted to question Hunter further, maybe over a dinner, but the boy called it first.
"Is the food only thing you think about?" Farid laughed. "But I have to admit I am pretty hungry too. It was long flight after all. Just let me take something from my b..." with these words, he started searching through his small luggage until he found a small sack of red-ish spice. The taste pf his home...
"Alright, we can go now."

Adventures with Apo!

Bump.

Adventures with Apo!

Hello beautiful people of this wonderful site! My name is Apothecary (sounds really stupid when you say it aloud) and this is my brand new and not shamelessly recycled Interest Check. With taste grows the hunger, and I have found myself in need of more role-playing partners, who would be willing to build something wonderful with me.

So, who am I...

You can call me Apo (or Marty if you aren't into silly nicknames). I am university student from glorious Czech Republic, trying to get my degree from international relationships so I could spend rest of my life under some decent bridge (hail the unemployment!). I would call myself a paragon of virtue pretty light-hearted person with a little bit strange sense of humor, who enjoys OOC chat, midnight walks, dogs and weird combination of alcohol and vegetable.
In terms of roleplaying abilities, I am capable of writing two to four decent paragraphs on daily basis, but I have no problem with doing more if the plot is good and partner active. My only real issue (does that sounds narcissistic?) is the grammar, because English isn't my first language. Still, I always proofread my posts and typos are rare sight with me.

...and what do I really want?

I like fantasy RPs with a plot, an actual story that would begin, then took our characters for a bumpy ride and ended in some epic finale. It could be just a simple adventure, so cliché it hurts, with a story about the fight between good and evil. Our characters could be typical simpletons from backwater village, that gets raided by the orcs, or one of us could be an orphan, who realizes that main villain is actually his father. Like I said, it's really cliché, but I grew up on these tropes and they are still very close to my heart.

Or we could do something darker! Our characters wouldn't have to be all goody, they could be simple humans walking on the morally grey line between the good and evil. They could be greedy mercenaries, with their own set of morals, nobles who are not afraid of any sacrifice, if it means they achieve their goals or witch-hunters using any means necessary hunt down their nemesis. What about exiled noble who would do anything to get his wealth back. The plot could be more simple, maybe something about revenge, or a grand story with a lot of intrigues and conspiracies. Oh the possibilities!

And if it isn´t dark enough, what about playing the bad guys? Dark knights and demons, witches and warlocks. People who sacrificed their soul to gain powers beyond any humans. Playing creatures ostracized by the society, who wants to be on the top of the ladder for once. Or nobles, who toy with their subjects and fighting against each other. Again, possibilities are endless.

Some pairings that could be interesting to do:

Assassin/Agent
Bounty hunter/Outlaw
Demon/Cultist
Demon/Servant
Inquisitor/Cultist
Mentor/Apprentice
Priest/Demon
Priest/Mercenary
Sith/Jedi
Smuggler/Jedi
Vampire/Warlock
Warrior/Bard
Witch/Witch hunter

Shattering of Tranquility

Sorry for the delay, had a lot of things on my plate.

Shattering of Tranquility

Hunter was also Marauder pilot, seemed like they preferred a similar style of fighting. They had at least something in common, since they backgrounds varied so greatly. Farid could only imagine how hard it had to be to live under surface. He was used to vast plains and scorching sun and to live without those things seemed terribly weird. Farid also realized why did the guy wore his goggles, he just wasn't used to normal light.

"Yes, my planet is just a one huge desert with a few oasis. People there try to terraform it into something greener, but it will take a least few decades before it will be anywhere close to decent living." speaking about his home, Farid had felt surprisingly homesick. It might a be backwater hole, but it was still his home and he might never see it again.
"Have you ever piloted a mech? In fight, I mean." Farid asked, hoping to change the subject. "I did once. It was just a small skirmish and I was scared shitless, but the adrenalin felt amazing."

Doctor here!

Shameless bump.

Shattering of Tranquility

Farid didn´t really shared Hayden´s attitude to warfare, but he let it go and didn´t make any commentary. It had to be harsh to lose an arm and leg while fighting for your home, still the metallic limbs looked pretty neat and Farid was sure they were more than sufficient compensation for what he lost.
The boy was happy to hear that their mech training was supposed to start tomorrow, not a second too soon. He has been assigned to the new Murauder mech variant and couldn´t wait to get his hands on it. So far, his only piloting experience was with discarded Knights and Farid was eager to try something “fresh”. He will give UP-DC hell, he was sure of it.

He entered his new room, wondering how much living space the Academy gave them. There was a pair of beds, small table and a little storage cabinet, basically everything one, or two, would need. He threw his bag of stuff on the bed, not bothering with unpacking. He will do it, eventually.
His new roommate looked like a decent guy, although he reminded Farid of sandbugs back home. Probably because of the glasses that guy wore.
“I think it´s too early to judge this place but so far, I am amazed. Everything here is… spectacular and modern, nothing like the dustball I came from. I think the food here is going to be good. Have you seen this planet from space? It´s all lush and green, dream of every farmer.” It was true, Farid was sure his father would kill for an opportunity to start farming here. “I am personally more interested in mechs than food. There should some really high-tech stuff in here… What machine did they assign to you?”
