Beyond the City Walls (Surreal Apocalyptic Scavenger RP)

@ZacksQuest No problem! I'm glad you're open to suggestions and the like.

You might get one or two items in there if you're lucky, but generally you get paid your Cells for your hard work and go about your business until the next assignment or change of plans.

Well if you're the one who finds the cache then there's nothing to stop you from taking choice picks, right? After all unless you have a tattle-tale partner or someone looking over your shoulder constantly the Sector won't know exactly what's in the cache until you tell them. Provided they don't know the proper contents before hand.

So you're in a position to take what you want from the Cache and then hand in the remainder for cash. It's the best of both worlds, getting good loot and getting paid for the stuff you don't need/want.

Besides since the Caches (from what you describe) are typically well guarded and trapped by the City and it's many creatures, I feel a lot of Retrievers would value being better equipped then better paid. Money might be valuable but more often then not it's better to find then to pay for something.

But that's just my thoughts on the matter.

Oh and I have another question: Will there be cars?

I mean this is a massive, sprawling City after all. Sure lots of the areas are eldritch, have fucked up physics, and no gravity, but I'm sure there are still roads. Having to get everywhere on foot and having to haul back larger Caches on your back doesn't sound all that ideal.

Besides this role play is apocalyptic or at least has apocalyptic elements. Throwing in a few Mad Max esque elements couldn't hurt.

@ZacksQuestThis honestly seems really interesting. I've got a mean hunger for some apocalyptic stuff so this is right up my alley.

Would you consider throwing in some kind of loot system? It doesn't need to be complex or anything like that, roleplays often work best in simple narrative setups.

I looooooooove scavenging for loot. Finding weird stuff and having to make do can lead to some really neat, iconic things for characters in my experience. Making a home made knife out of a splinter of car frame, sawing down a single barreled shotgun, getting a bunch of old stockings and making a ballistic nylon coat, stuff like that.

However there's no real drama or intrigue when players can simply find food, ammo, weapons, armor, supplies, and whatever else they want whenever it's convenient for them. So I feel a loot list/system would help liven things up.

@glwgameplayerBut this is Naked Snake, he's only familiar with the Shagohod :P Though he might remember the term Granin mentioned...

@agentnumalolI'm the only one who gets to feel bad about being slow to post damn it! Nah don't worry about it, my pace is pretty bad at the moment due to my health so there's no rush. I'm working on my post when I can get out of bed. Won't be much longer now.

As for lasso fishing, give it a shot. That goes for all players here. If you have something weird that you'd like your character to try, go for it. As long as it's well written and presented in a manner that's not complete lunacy then chances are I'll roll with it. Just let me know here if it involves rolling or anything major. Stuff can go over my head sometimes.

Also for some reason now I want to add something with skeletons just so they are on the loot list presenting the risk of fishing up a spoopy ass skeleton that you'll have to fight...

My apologies for the delays in posting. I'm currently in physical therapy and they've intensified things because it's not working as well as it should. Thankfully I've already rolled for the location of our first mission (which I will keep a secret for now) and will work on some rough area maps so everything is ready when I can actually get shit done.

@Etherean FireSorry, I had fun here. I'm sure we'll see each other around on other RPs.

Project Crossover [Video Game Crossover RP]

@Holy SoldierDue to some issues going on currently and an impeding surgery I might be having within a month or two, I'll be dropping out of this roleplay and Smash. Sorry for the suddenness of this. Do with my character as you require.

Who Believes In Fairytales?

I have decided to bow out of this RP.

So Odds is leaving because he has too much on his plate. Holy Soldier is leaving because he made a character who has no reason to get involved in the plot or interact with anyone he's not explicitly trying to kill. And Lexicon is gone because things aren't simply going fast enough from a plot standpoint.

Fantastic.



@UtraxI haven't heard a word from Drag on the matter so I'll just say that you can do whatever you want with the characters of the players who are leaving. Take control of them and use them in scenes. Or if you want the character to be played by someone else for a scene so you're not just writing with yourself, just ask me and I'll do it.

@redbaron1234Oh yeah I figured everyone just wants to leave and get shit started. But I figured it would be a good idea to ask and let people do anything else they wished to do. I'll give things another day before pushing things along.

Who Believes In Fairytales?

@Holy SoldierI'm pretty sure the existence of a (sort of cannibalistic?) gingerbread crime boss is enough to warrant your sugar addicted hunter's role in things, HS. Everyone's still trying to get a grasp on things and work out how they want to proceed is all. My slow posting certainly didn't speed that process up at all, but we're getting back to the meat of things.

So please don't leave, you're jumping the gun on things. Especially since @Riflebird says they have plans they'd like to work out with you.
