Institute for the Exceptionally Gifted

I was going to announce my interest in this, but if it's a month with no updates...

Interested.

Can you tell me if you're full up on techie archetypes? I have one that I've been trying to satisfy, and my current roleplay is...not advancing.

Not New, Just Returning

Thank you. It's been a while, so I'm re-familiarizing myself with the site and its contents.

Not New, Just Returning

Greetings, RPG.

I couldn't tell you when I joined; I'd have to look it up. I was here before The Fall. I've been out of the game for a while, but thought I'd take a chance and poke the bushes a little...see what pops out.

I've done roleplay for half my life, and in a few different venues. I prefer strong character development, realism, solid plot and advancement, and a strong team of players who communicate easily. My favorite genres are Cyberpunk, Superhero, Modern Crime/Mystery and Medieval Fantasy.

I suppose I'll have to redo my profile. That probably won't happen tonight. Questions are welcome, as are conversations.

I will do 1x1, but I prefer to avoid certain adult themes which other sites encourage. I do this for the story.

Unlikely Heroes

I'm just damned impressed. That was a clever bit of response, PoS. This could quickly become a plot point.

Kirra's Weekly Discussion: NPCs

I think this might be the best description yet of why NPCs should be a main ingredient of any roleplay. Just think of it this way... How would you ever finish Skyrim without talking to guards, villagers, scoundrels, guild leaders...

You wouldn't. You wouldn't be able to.

Does anyone get the feeling someone logs on every few hours just to spam f5 to crash the site?

Anything is possible. Given what I know of humans, it seems rather likely.

Unlikely Heroes

Moving plot with Sam and Christian. Kirra, at your convenience, I would very much like to discuss what I have in mind with you.

Unlikely Heroes

Sam chewed on her lip in the uncomfortable silence which followed her elaboration on the inconveniences her ability brought with it. She had done it again; had given away too much information. This always happened. She would let someone in and they would discover that they didn't like what they saw.

"Forget it." She mumbled, turning away. "It's not important."

She busied herself with a nearby dumpster, though whether it was out of legitimate interest or as a means to force a subject change was unclear. Sam never found much interest in criminal activity or methodology, but from the collection of discarded electronics within, she suspected it to be one of many dump-sites that the more organized thugs in the city might have used when ditching their "burner" phones.

"What a waste." She said softly. Before she could think better of it, she plucked one off the top of the pile. She dropped it instantly, clutching her hand to her chest, as if to shield it. "Whoops. Almost forgot."

She turned back to Christian. "These phones all have one thing in common. They're all low-tech, pre-paid models. No GPS, no internet...nothing. I'll just bet they all have just one or two calls in their history. Crooks use them to make deals, sometimes. I...uh...read about it."

"Better leave this stuff alone. If they are burners, the deals their owners made would have to be pretty serious, just to cover the cost of their gear. We're not looking at common hoods here."

She hopped down to the alley floor and trudged over to Christian. Just touching that phone had made her edgy, almost excited. She hadn't given herself the time to absorb any more than the most basic information, but it was enough to make her want more. Leaving them was like turning her back on her most basic instinct.

"Come on," she insisted, grabbing Christian's hand. "Let's bail before anyone sees us."

That sentiment would have helped them quite a bit more, had it crossed her mind minutes earlier. She could not know that their movements had already been observed.
