" If the choice comes down to run or fight I'm running, never been caught before, how would lightning or throwing tables with your mind change that? "

Name: Jacob Hare
Gender Male
Age: 21
Alignment: Guild
Rank within Organisation: Member

Birthmark Shape :
Location of BirthmarkBack of the head where spine meets skull.
Magical Abilities : In simple terms, portals. In a few more words, Jacob can literally bend reality in order to close the distance between two locations. The stability and accuracy of these portals depend greatly upon Jacob's wellbeing, and any use of these portals is taxing on him.

Gateways- The more traditional portal, Gateways have several requirements. For a location to be come a permanent gateway location Jacob must set up an Anchor. Anchors are magic sigils that allow Jacob to properly lock onto a desired location without having to have visual contact. Anchored gateways preserve energy, allowing Jacob to transport more people in one go and nearly eliminate the energy over distance requirement for unanchoreed gateways. Jacob can only have four Anchors active at any time, and Anchors can be easily destroyed, Jacob is notified if one is destroyed.

Blink- A short range movment spell derived from Gateway. Unable to move a target farther than a few feet, Blink has trouble moving anyone other than Jacob, and impossible for those not in physical contact with him. Like Gateway, the number and size of occupants as well as repeated use is extremely tiring. Unlike gateway, Blink is instant and can move Jacob beyond thin walls with or without eye contact.

Place of Birth:Texas
Currently Residing:New York
Personality:Jacob tends to be the last person to give up and the first to leap into danger to save a freind, though that may be due simply to how long it takes for him to trust people. Those who Jacob trusts can count on a quick getaway in any situation. Jacob's trust however, can harm him as well. Unfortunately he tends to be a bit blind, always seeing the best in his friends even if that good part does not exist. In this way, he has been tricked by the suave and manipulative before.

In the end, Jacob is still a kid. He yearns for a family and yet his previous experience with people have all gone sour. He retains a sense of childlike wonder that only adds to how difficult it is for people to take him seriously.

History/Bio:Born to a Japanese woman and an American man, Jacob was quickly given up for adoption by his teenaged mother. Moving from home to home Jacob eventually found himself living with the Hare family, A group of wealthy Texans running a string of BBQ restaurants worldwide. Through the Hare family Jacob found a place to call home, this was not to last however.

It was soon after the beatings started that Jacob developed his powers, and also when the strangers arrived. They called themselves Magi, and as unsure as Jacob was he immediately went with them, anything to get away. This was how Jacob joined the guild.

He spent his time honing his powers by transporting various guild members to various locations, mainly the new Anchors turned safehouses for guild members on the outside. Jacob enjoys the guild, but hates hiding away from the world, he yearns for a chance to be outside without having to worry about people learning about him and flipping out.

Relationships
Name:Aloysius Leighton
Relationship:Best Friends - Good Friends - Friends - Well known - Warm - Acquaintances - Unknown - Cold - Dislikes - Hates - Enemies - Rival - Nemesis
Characters opinion of them: Good looking? Yes. Evil? Yes. Good looking? So much yes. " I may not agree with his methods but if siding with him means I can stop hiding one day then I just might. "

Name:Salem Adelaide de Silva
Relationship :Best Friends - Good Friends - Friends - Well known - Warm - Acquaintances - Unknown - Cold - Dislikes - Hates - Enemies - Rival - Nemesis
Characters opinion of them: " She obviously cares greatly for the guild, and is out to prove herself. All in all a real leader if ever I saw one. I just hope she can get the guild somewhere, I realise we are powerful things, us magi, but it does not mean we hide away and give up a chance at a normal life just because humans are xenophobic. "

Name:Jacob Hare
Age:21
Gender:Male
Allignment: The Guild
Rank: Recruit

Birthmark:
Birthmark location: Back of the neck, where the spine attatches to the skull.

Abilities: In simple terms, portals. In a few more words, Jacob can literally bend reality in order to close the distance between two locations. The stability and accuracy of these portals depend greatly upon Jacob's wellbeing, and any use of these portals is taxing on him.

Gateways- The more traditional portal, these take time and effort to create and maintain, and should not be used more than once a week due to the effort required. To properly create the end location for a Gateway, Jacob must either have a personal knowledge of the desired location, or must have eye contact with it, be it through the naked eye or a live video feed for as long as the Gateway needs to be open. Break of eye contact or concentration will sever the link, forcing all occupants currently in a Gateway out to their original location.

Blink- A short range movment spell derived from Gateway. Unable to move a target farther than a few feet, Blink has trouble moving anyone other than Jacob, and impossible for those not in physical contact with him. Like Gateway, the number and size of occupants as well as repeated use is extremely tiring. Unlike gateway, Blink is instant and can move Jacob beyond thin walls with or without eye contact.

History: from a young age Jacob always knew he was different, but unlike other magi his powers were never unstable or dangerous enough in youth for it to cause problems, no many of Jacobs issues in youth stemmed from the sheer fact that he knew nobody could keep him in one place.

Moving from family to family, Jacob stayed the longest with the Hare family, a very traditional southern values group of people. Church every sunday, respect your elders or face pawpaw's belt, family above all else.

Jacob left at age 13 however, due to an incident with his adoptive uncle that gave him a fear of physical contact and sent his uncle to jail for a long time. However cheerful on the outside, Jacob never attatched himself to anyone after that, until his wandering led him to learn of the two safe havens for magi.

It did not take long to learn a decent amount about either, and eventually he sided with the guild, though unknown to any but him he stil very much sits on the fence, as of yet still unwilling to fully devote himself to either cause.

How is this? I realize it's a bit short but more can be added in a bit.

@jakeb1993

Well yea obviously they would not remain neutral forever. My point was more to have a character who saw both sides had valid points. That the guild was at least partially correct for wanting to try and regulate the magi, and dark shadow is hard not to sympathise with when they are essentially wanting to stop genocide even if they may go a bit overboard in the character's opinion.

At any rate, if the character being neutral is a problem you can count on another cs for the guild, they seem to be lacking atm.

@jakeb1993 want to join in, how does portals sound? Limited ofc. I have this sort of idea for a generally neutral character that would prove an asset to either side, but if I had to put them somewhere it would be with the " terrorists "

The Blighted Kingdom

@Roman

Hey GM, I have a certain love for playing the more monsterous races, be they half ' human ' or not. Would a character race such as goblin, nymph, lamia, or even those suffering from lycanthropy ( not the cutsie kind where you can control it ) be allowed? If not, are there specific races playable? Or did I miss something in the intch? I might have missed something anyways due to my lack of sleep but this seems interesting nevertheless.

Halted breath (Sci-fi / survial horror )

LOCATION: CURRENTLY IN ORBIT AROUND TARTARUS
PLANET STATUS: UNCOLONIZED, ATTEMPTS TO MAKE CONTACT WITH GROUND TEAM FAILED.
SHIP STATUS: 3 OUT OF 4 ENGINES MALFUNCTIONING, SEVERAL HULL BREACHES, COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT MALFUNCTIONING, UNABLE TO CONTACT HOMEWORLD.
PROJECT STATUS: UNKNOWN
MOTHER STATUS: UNKNOWN

Hello and welcome to Halted Breath, my attempt at a Sci-Fi horror group. Let's cut to the chase yes?

First, I should not have to mention since this is in the advanced catagory, but decent post lengths and attendance are a must. I am very flexible however and understand life comes first, but if you are gone for a week without any warning I will assume you have lost interest.

Now, this rp is set upon UFS Hope, a large military spacecraft turned research platform. After years of experimentation combining AI technologies and human brain tissue, a breakthrough has been made, though most likely too late. The ship was attacked by an unknown assailant and crippled. This left 85% of the crew dead, with the other 15% stranded in deep space with no known way of contacting help.

For the remaining crew, they have two jobs in this situation. First, contain the survivors of the ALPHA project and survive. The ALPHA project survivors have only one goal, escape. This would all be simple enough were it not for the very reason the ALPHA project was started, we are not alone in the universe.

Will you team up and survive? Will the crew disregard their job and help escape with the Alpha subjects? Will the Alpha subjects be able to forget the physical and mental torture they experienced and help as many people escape as possible? Or will madness decend, leaving everyone to fend for themselves?

First, I would like to see how many people would want to be playing crew members, and who Alpha subjects.

Scientists will be the only crew members who have acess to almost the entire ship aside from the captain. They will also be the only crew members who know how to track the Alpha subjects through connection with the Central AI known as MOTHER.

Guards will have millitary training and will have acess to weapon lockers and other simmilar areas that scientists do not.

There are other living crew members, but not many aside from those above were important enough to preserve in cryogenic suspension.

Alpha subjects themselves will have nearly no proper acess to the ship, but have a connection to the now rouge MOTHER AI, who has taken her role and name a bit too seriously. MOTHER has the same acess as the scientists but may often need to be convinced to do certain things, especially if they may put her " children " in danger.

Some Alpha subjects were also used to experiment with cybernetic enhancement. Enhanced strength and tissue regeneration to name two. Ideas are more than welcome and expected.

Nobody can hear you scream. Sci-Fi / Survival / Horror

Well currently including me we seem to have 4 people interested, will have an ooc up soon, tomorrow at the latest.
