Oh cool; older character. That's pretty neat.

Pretty much; considering how dangerous it is outside of safe-zones in Germany, there's not a whole lot of room to expand. As far as women go, I'm sure they'd look past it if they can prove worthwhile to train, but the beliefs of a man taking up the role of a defender and warrior are still held strong. I think the most that there'd be of them expanding out is very small outposts run by the Hunters, kinda like the NCR Ranger outposts. They're pretty much cut off from the 'mainland' and are expected to go on long periods without ample supplies.

_Appearance

Luther is a slim boy, standing at 5'9", with auburn hair and blue eyes. His body has no scarring, ageing, or tattoos, giving his age-range and experience away quite easily to anyone who would see his face without the standard-equipment mask given to the troopers of the Kaiserreich.

_Personality

Like many boys and young men enlisted into the revived Deutsches Kaiserreich, Luther has an undying sense of loyalty to his community and to the organization that gave him the opportunity to help serve them. With the world in shambles, Luther believes strongly in the principle of serving one's community; without everyone doing their part, it can cause setbacks for the rest of the German people. Another quality is the gentlemanly attitude he tries to portray while at work; many of the young men and boys who signed up look up to the tales of gentleman's behavior from days long forgotten. Even so, he still has remnants of his attitude as boy; rowdy, playful, and a desire to express his individualism through the music he plays. More so, he exhibits some signs of discomfort when the topic turns to the German people's status as a superior race, a trait indirectly caused by his growing up with boys of other cultures, due to the collapse of society and the requirement of those from various backgrounds working together.

_Biography

Born in the safe zone centered around the Königsplatz and outside the Brandenburg Gate, life was a struggle for the Engel family; rations were given out in a set amount regardless of the workload, work was required by all 'civilians' starting at the age of twelve, and curfews were enforced with brutal efficiency. The entirety of Berlin was plagued by loose debris, plague carriers, and mines yet to be seen. The German people believed that they truly were superior, even when there were too few of them to keep their safe zone functioning. It wasn't until Luther was four when his family was forced to flee with others in a mass exodus.

Traitors to the now archaic Nazi Regime, they were seen as. What the plague carriers and other dangers in the city could not kill, the soldiers would. As few as ten to fifteen families had made it out of the "City of Hell," as they called it. Even worse was the journey; those without the strength to move were left behind in the wastelands of Germany, to be either picked apart by the ravenous hordes or worse. By the time their family had made it to Altensteig, where an even smaller safe zone had been constructed with the Altensteig Castle as it's center of administration. Luckily for the Engel family, they had made it alive in relative one-piece, with only the memories to haunt both parents's dreams.

For most of Luther's life, he had only known the small safety of Altensteig's safe-zone, playing with the young boys and girls from other parts of Germany, neighboring countries, and Altensteig itself. From this city, he began to grow an appreciation to the older tastes of life, particularly of music. Though quite rare in this day and age, Luther dedicated his time whenever possible to the study of Classical music. Even better, one of his teachers had a piano in the make-shift school to practice playing. While life was typically boring compared to what it was back then, Luther had found enjoyment in the simple things. It was from this taste of Classical German music that he would meet the local recruiter for the safe-zone guard.

Impressed by his love of his heritage, the man offered Luther the opportunity to find more cultural relics in the outside world. By the time he was old enough to join, Luther had taken a fascination for what lay out in the world, beyond the horrifying Black Forest. This drive to learn more fueled his training, earning him a position as a Jäger; they were once known for being ruthless in the extermination of their enemies, but now played a pivotal role in the search of old-world technology to help further their agenda in restoring the German people to their lost state. It is here that Luther takes his first steps into the outside world...

@Kuro You fear what you do not understand.

The War That Ended All Wars [Applications Open]

Finally done with my sheet and faction. I feel so powerful. Bow before me, mortals.

The War That Ended All Wars [Applications Open]

@Nate1008 I wish you luck elsewhere in other RPs, then.

@Clattercake I'll wait until you finish the faction sheet to give my thoughts.

@Quincy

Weirder things have happened. It's all in the name of taking Elsass-Lothringen back for the Kaiserreich anyway, right? *wink wink*

@Kuro

Hans, get ze flammenwerfer.

@Clattercake I'll wait until you finish the faction sheet to give my thoughts.

@Quincy Seems fine to me. Approved. Maybe Reb and Luther can hook up and talk about classical music, since they both have nostalgia for the old.

@Kuro

You got it, boss man.

Also, imagine a seventeen year old German boy hanging out with a twenty-six year old French lady while discussing classical music; society would collapse further from the ground fucking waking with the anguished cries of angry Nazis and Frenchmen.

@Kuro Sheet done, sir o7.

I'll get started on the faction now.

I know that feeling. I had been typing away at a work draft on RPG, went to hit save, hit cancel instead on accident.

This is why you save often, kids. lol

But yeah, I'm in no rush. I have quite a few RPs to attend to this weekend and have IRL business to deal with, too.

@Kuro

That happened to me once with an entire CS and when I went to write it down a second time, I was almost finished with it. The cosmos has a way with fucking with me because the sheet messed up and none of the formats were working, so now whenever I write a character sheet, I make sure to save the whole thing as well as constantly clicking preview.

There's something funny to me about that second image with all the farmers casually doing their work while a giant war machine in the background engages another war machine.
