Kieren

Kieren rolled his eyes at Payton's reply and sighed, leaning back in his chair. He couldn't help but break a small smirk at Micah's reply and his eyes fell on Remy as she quipped out her own response. Still finding himself restless, Kieren added "Not just girls, either, teach."

Payton was definitely attractive; the kind of guy that Kieren wouldn't kick out of bed if he fell into it, but certainly not the kind of guy he would go for. He was too.. handsome, for Kieren's tastes.

Little shop of curiosities

So I have been thinking about an idea, just wanted to post it here and hope I'm in the right place!

Essentially, I am a very curious person in general and love learning about characters, as well as developing back stories and working on ideas about what has happened in the character's pasts etc.

I am hoping (depending on interest of course) to propose an RP group/story set in an old shop, where characters can enter and purchase curious items to suit their needs. Like a bar/tavern setting, the characters would enter the shop and meet the owners of the shop and they can vent a story/test out character traits/work out a character's backstory through conversations with the staff/invite people onto a quest using the items available in the shop.

It's almost an ideas testing-ground for those characters that you're still working out the kinks for, or that you want to develop.
It could also develop into a story, with regulars visiting for their fixes, soldiers coming in to fix or upgrade their weapons - it'd be one of those shops where you just seem to be able to get anything. If friendships developed between the staff and customers, they could go out and close the shop, it'd be quite an open and free RP.

Fantasy setting, so trolls, imps, elves, even mermaids are welcome - the shopkeeper would be a warlock of sorts, so just anyone is welcome.

I don't know what people think about the idea, could be a total flop and silly, but feel free to post questions and let me know if you're interested!

Zain raised his eyebrows quickly, holding back a harsh laugh as he watched Liz. She hardly seemed the type to confront anyone - she seemed far too timid for that. His 'knight in shining armour' act was clearly unneeded. He just wished that he had popcorn to watch.

He smirked, impressed with Liz and glanced around to see if anyone else was watching. His eyes stopped on a blonde just behind him. She looked entertained by the two currently confronting one and other and Zain wondered which side she was rooting for.

Kieren

Kieren's eyes wandered over the students in the room and he watched them interacting. He found himself watching Via and Isaac more closely. Via he knew from a class previously, and she wasn't one to keep herself to herself - she was very well known by a lot of people. Isaac's face was familiar to Kieren and he rubbed his head, trying to recall the flash of a face he had seen leaving his dorm room that morning.

He sighed and looked across to the door. Another girl had walked into the classroom and left the door open. He found himself passing her an irritated glance. The open door just had him itching to run out of it. He looked across at Payton, still sitting in his chair and watching over them. "Oi, professor.. are you going to teach us something or are we paying you to sit on your ass and watch us all day? I thought this was school, not a fucking prison."

Trip

Zain turned to Liz and blinked, realizing that they were incredibly close to one and other, then stepped back from her, "Sorry, did I hurt you? This joker's not exactly got a damn for the real world around him since school ended." he glanced back across at the red mustang owner with a slight sneer.

The Thieves Guild

Hey, I hope it's not too late to submit a character?

Ratte

Appearance: 5'0, dark hair that is cut unevenly around her ears and has longer layers on top that stick out. Deep brown eyes and a pale complexion, with a small almost pointed nose. Skinny but has tight little muscles on her legs and arms. Sometimes wears charcoal around her eyes to look menacing. Normally wears dark clothes and a thin black cloak.
Age:24
Name: Krista Mueller
Nickname/Alias: Ratte
Gender: Female

Personality: Ratte is carefree in the deadly sense. She holds her true feelings back well behind a mask of sarcasm, flirting and general boisterous and rowdy behaviour. She is a pessimist, but can be very caring on the inside and looks after those she considers worthy of her care with a fierce loyalty, though those people are few and far between. She is determined and stubborn - if she wants something, she's going to try to get it, even if that means betraying someone.
Biography: Ratte grew up with her sister in a quiet little family that couldn't afford much. Ratte was never the favourite child - she was brutish and stubborn and often came home with bruises or something stolen, often egged on by her sister though nobody ever saw that part. Her parents were at the end of their patience with her, when her little sister became sick. Ratte took on the role of providing the medicine for her under the guise of having found a job. In reality, she was stealing and when her parents and sister found out, they banned her from the house. Ratte lived on the streets for a long time after that, still sneaking medicine into the house when she could, but learning skills to live on her own and survive in this bitter world of ungrateful beings. She eventually hitched a ride out of town to escape from a group that she had pissed off with her nature and stealing from them and never came back. She was never able to settle, moving from town to town, eventually landing in Luthias - somewhere she was hoping to make a name for herself before she moved on. A name everyone either hates or fears, of course.

Skills: Pick-pocketing, lying, lock-picking, knife-throwing, drinking shots.
Equipment: A knife on her belt, a lock-picking set in a small bag on her shoulder, deck of cards.

Kieren

Name: Kieren Hunter
Nicknames: Sometimes 'Kier' but he prefers Kieren.
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Personality: Kieren doesn't like to talk much, he's more of a physical 'act now, talk later' kind of guy. He is an intense person and very passionate; if he's set on achieving something, he will do it but this comes with its drawbacks - if he's angry, he can get very angry. He is caring but he can really hold a grudge, hence the reason he is at Redwood.
Appearance: Dyed red hair styled into a faux-hawk. Hazel eyes and square-set jaw. 5'9" and broad shouldered, he's well built and works out to keep in shape.
Why you are here: His parents, knowing Kieren's tendency to over-react and deal with his anger violently, managed to work with the judges in court after he attempted to run over an ex that cheated on him. They settled for months of community service and sending him to Redwood in order to hopefully teach him to control his anger and work through getting over his ex.
How long you've been at Redwood: 4 months
Other: Loves motorbikes and is a skillful mechanic.

Tori

Name: Torin
Nicknames: Tori
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Personality: Kind-hearted and enjoys bringing out the best in people, because he wants to believe that everyone has some good in them. He's got a tough exterior and has been compared to a drill sargent, but he listens and works hard to gain the trust of his students and work with them to reform. He isn't a push-over, however. He knows that reform means hard work and sometimes disappointment and he is willing to teach his students that they won't always get everything they want no matter how hard they try. He expects and enforces respect in his classroom and has little patience for being late.
Appearance: Short blond hair, large and broad. 5'11" and normally dressed in his gym-gear. Has one prosthetic leg.
Subjects you teach: PE/Gym, wanting to be a learning mentor/have this kind of role in the school.
How long have you been at Redwood: 3 years.
Other: He is an ex-captain, dismissed after an injury in the field.
