ALERT- I'm going AFK for a week, anyone that sees this on here, I won't be about to respond, this is to both 1x1s/RPs.

Bio

I've RP'd for the best part of over 14 years now here on the Guild, and particularly like military settings, both contemporary, past and near future. I have even dabbled in a little more experimental RPs, as well as created a plethora of 1x1s over my time in the guild. I like creating RPs with a distinct flavour- and often shift between narrative-led RPs to semi-randomised plots.

I'm pretty flexible and try and get back to people on ideas and responses, but sometimes, I may become very busy and it will take some time till I am un-busy- though I always come back!

CSes are WIP still, but I've updated their skillset, to showcase what they have and what I'm going to go with in them, so as an update for me and whoever is looking at it :P . I think they're gonna be a really fun set of characters to play, as I'm going to attempt to try and do a little quantity over quality at first, so as to establish the house and the setting for them, especially given that people like Willas are just internal and distant from it all, even 25 years on, and people like Merlin, Ellion and Alerie are the new sort of blood, to basically repair the enormous hit that they took in KL (cough Lannister bash). But there's a massive depth into these characters, which if it keeps going, I'll slowly drip in and really go for that depth.
@MrDidact

Manderford makes sense as that sort of keep, though it's all very flat- so I imagine it'd look imposing, with a nice harbour to keep the Iron Islanders at bay. And yeah, I can imagine, they aren't going to be happy, but I think I've made a set of characters that create a breed of Tyrells beyond all the shit their family got.

Yeah, the CS was from an old RP, but it's got a lot to be modified- it's easier to modify than it is to scrap and make afresh right now, so I'll stick to it, given that it looks all pretty and all. It's barebones, and will be minimal on some characters as I want to play them, wheras Alerie has a lot of detail due it being modified.

Oh, and what family would this be WITHOUT a femme fatale? The Tyrells in this RP are different to the two last generations of Tyrells I've had in other GoT RPs, as they aren't the lead, such as Olenna- Willas is clearly the defined head of the house, he's this incredibly nice, generous, pleasant guy, he isn't dishonest, he couldn't put a foot wrong (so will he die fast is the question? Surprisingly, he isn't in the thick of it, so maybe not). Wheras Alerie is a bit more cunning, she's definitely like Margery, equal parts cunning and charming. Merlin follows on from Willas, while Ellion is a very talented Knight and swordsman, reminding me of Garland from my previous RP- a bit of a glory seeking second son.

There's a lot of members of House Tyrell (and amazingly for a crippled guy, Willas has had a lot of kids), and if anyone wants any of the ones I've listed, feel free to PM me- so far I've put in bold Willas's sons and daughters, but will be playing Garlan as well if there is no interest in the other Tyrell.

I'll update you when it's all done :)
(WIP)

@MrDidact

I've been really busy with work, but I will get to work on that CS tomorrow.

Actually, fuck it. I'll post a shell from my last RP, and you'll see it heavily, heavily, heavily edited. It should be fun- a whole host of characters to do, though I'll put the most effort into Willas (a kindly and noble Lord) and Merlin for now.

Is it possible to still have Garlan as Lord of Brightwater Keep? I can imagine he wasn't happy having it taken from him....beef. :P
@MrDidact

Noted. It'll play mostly along Willas, Garlan and their kids, so probably three to four characters, two well done. I'll get to work when I have a little time tomorrow/day after.
@Mega Birb

You keep making characters that compliment Tobias (who's an ex-military engineer, he blows shit up, remember). Wheras yours disarms bombs....curious.
Has anyone got the Tyrells? I'd love to play them, and could actually insert a CS I've had from a while back into it, with alterations of course. Abefroman and a few others can probably give me a recommendation.

Torvalds, Tobias, Prisoner No. 921

"Cell Block D, Cell Block D, out time." The loudspeaker yelled, as Tobias's cell opened, the memory of what the lawyer had said to him ringing in his ears. Tobias was no stranger to prison, he'd been in a brig, he'd been in prison in Norway, then immediately gotten onto a fishing ship across to Greenland, then to Liberty City. How times had changed, now he was in some fucking desert shithole, awaiting trial. Or extradition. 30 years, the lawyer had said, probably without parole, and extradition was an option if he..."wasn't suited" to the American penal system. Sitting in a prison in Norway that had cosy rooms and an even cosier living standard would be literally heaven in prison standards, and compared to Bollingbroke, this shithole, the Norwegian thought to himself, he'd rather be anywhere else. He was tempted to chase that instead of risk it, but fuck it, he thought to himself. He had some skulls to kick in.

The Norwegian's hair had been cut short, his beard shaved short but it had already regrown in the time in here. Tobias knew that this time, when they went out, all shit would raise. Kang and the others knew the plan, they had been informed by the same legal assistance that the Nordic biker had heard from. And Tobias knew that it was not going to be exactly pleasant. Starting a riot was dangerous, you either got killed or you'd never see the light of day again, but he had faith in whatever was to come. Tobias could tell they looked after their own, but Christopher was harsh, but fair. That worried him a little. If he wanted Tobias and his chums not to talk, they'd be dead already. But they'd been protected, and were being bailed. They were needed, but somehow, Tobias didn't feel like it was overwhelmingly positive.

Standing up in his room, Tobias hid the screwdriver he'd crafted into a shiv, out of view, out of mind, out of anyone's knowledge. He had beef to pick. Walking out of his cell, the orange-jumpsuited, Prisoner No.921 of Bollingbroke Penitentiary only shot a cold stare across at the prison guard at the end of the line, as he followed behind. Walking past the steel gate, out of the gallery, he headed into the yard, back into the searing sun. He'd seen the time as he left on the wall. 2:20. There was ten minutes, exactly.

He walked across, and kept thinking. There had been a rat, and he had to be fucking here, whoever it was, the driver, the security, an insider? Kang was too loyal, sociopathic, but he had nothing to gain. Neither Aiden, nor Ravyn. And him? Well, for as much as a mercenary he was, he'd been in this organisation for two years and proven his worth as a gun. It didn't add up. But somehow, Tobias didn't so much care. There was only the plan. He found Kang in the distance, and gave a simple nod, looking across. He was mentally counting minutes, he had no watch, he could only guess the time here now. But by 2:30, there had to be a riot. There were guards in the towers armed with shotguns and sub-machine guns, a fucking lot of them, actually, and there was little cover. How the fuck was this meant to work?

Tobias didn't question. He only made his way towards Kang, not being able to spot the others yet, thinking about it all again. So, stab some poor fucker, kick off a fight, and by the time the guards came, whatever was happening at 2:30 exactly on the fucking dot, would make sure he didn't get shot, stabbed or beaten to death. There were gangs in this prison, and weirdly, they hadn't touched or even started beef with Tobias, or anyone else on the team. How that had happened, Tobias didn't understand, but perhaps it was a healthy respect, you didn't mess with someone in for a murder beef, four of them, all of whom worked for a criminal syndicate that was to some of these people, near enough mythical. Well, maybe.

"We're on in five. I have the Mexicans, you have Dick Harrington himself. Have fun." His Norwegian accent came out even when he spoke, though it was slowly getting Americanised, bit by bit, as he nodded. Drawing the shank and gently hiding it up his sleeve, he smirked, as he walked away, knowing there were minutes. Tick, tick, tick. He looked around, clocked the guards in the towers, the guards around, cover, and what was going to happen. Taking a deep breath, he broke into a chaotic smirk. Kang would be set off, and he prayed the others had their targets.

The Mexicans were diverse in their gangs, mostly from cartels, but they weren't altogether. This particular group looked like the weaker one, and whilst there was half a dozen, and it would be insane to deal with a bunch of people heavily tattooed who never looked like they had actually been out of prison, awaiting the same kind of extradition as Tobias, and with very little to lose. Yet he didn't give a shit. This was how you started riots. Pick on someone about twice your size, run, and then let the rest kick off a set of events. Like throwing a match into the petrol, you make the flames rise everywhere, Tobias thought to himself. Before he grinned at the Mexican, and buried the shiv into his eye socket.

"Arrrrrghhahahahh!" That wasn't the man who'd been stabbed screaming...in what sounded like a bit of absolute bastardry. It was Tobias Torvalds, and right now, whilst he didn't like doing some things sometimes, he was stabbing some guy who probably raped some kids on the side, he thought to himself. And that made it okay. Ish.
"Fucking cunts!"

The man screamed joining the Norwegian, as Tobias head-butted his friend, the man next to him reacting with a shove and a right-hook that took him down to the ground, swearing in Spanish loudly. Tobias grinned, laughing almost as he stood back up crawling away, withdrawing the shank from eyeball man with a violent pull, Tobias no weakling. Neither were these Mexicans. One threw a punch, and he barely missed, as the entirety of the gang moved around him, the guards distracted by something else, and something else. Tobias ran, pushing one aawy, running towards another group. Shit, he was pissing off a lot of the prison. He shoved into another prisoner in a huddled group, the Mexicans running after him, one almost pushing him onto the ground, as the guy behind Tobias just fell over instead, flat on his ass.

"Come on then!" Tobias yelled at them, hearing the sirens wail off in the prison. The adrenaline pumped, the guards were confused, disorientated, unaware of what the fuck was going on. But Tobias, Aiden, Kang and Ravyn were right where they had to be, in that moment, as the riot began to erupt, and what started as a stabbing of some Mexican dude turned into an inter-racial prison riot, with the guards being even taken on, everyone fighting everyone at this point. Tobias had stared the prisoner fighting, now it had to go towards the guards, and this was something he was sure the other three would easily facilitate. If this escape was going to work, they had to now keep the momentum, and pray that whoever was on the outside acted now. The occasional gunshot went off, into the air, then at one or two prisoners, as Tobias dove for cover, no longer even a target of contention in the aftermath, the red blood pouring down his orange prison jumpsuit.
"Any fucking second!"

@Mega Birb
Aaaand, Natalie Dormer is in this RP.....woah. Well, that makes it two people from GoT in this RP, though they couldn't possibly even more different both in character and in GoT....curious though :)
