Bio
Hello! I'm Heap!
Welcome to my little corner of the guild.
My current life status and availability:
I live in the Western area of the US in an apartment I work 2 jobs and 50-65 hours (Not exaggerating) a week to pay for. I work primarily as a professional graphic designer and part time at a local family owned shop mainly as a favor to the owner who needed the help. Aside from that I'm relatively active in my social life and non-role-playing activities so while I'm still online everyday the hours are usually really early in the morning and really late at night. That being said, if you find me in chat and I randomly disappear, I'm not trying to be rude, someone probably just showed up at my door wanting to hang out or go out.
My Roleplaying style:
When it comes to joining a role-play I usually go for a more adult themed type. Not necessarily intimate just more of a mature context. The genre doesn't typically matter so long as the idea is somewhat original, that to say, I don't go for role-plays based on any specific media very often. The exception being if the role-play is based off an already well established story that it's not completely following the canon of it.
Who I am:
Curiosity is my blessing and curse. I must know as much about everything as I possibly can and often will never take a simple answer to a question without either inquiring further or doing extra research on the subject until I know it's origin, current political and monetary state, how it's used and if in any way it could influence my own life. So far as I know I'm a pretty easy going, fun loving, person, I'm not afraid to go against the grain or do something that seems a little odd. In the end I genuinely just want to be a happy person and in turn share that happiness with everyone around me.
Side note:
I've made a few friends since being here and truly cherish my friendships with each and every one of them (you know who you are). If you guys ever need anything, ever, I'm there, you never need to ask twice or feel like you are any less important to me then you really are.
The Ibrus Clan is also a thing consisting of myself, @Vashonn, @Caster and @Big Dread. We are a group of miscreants and are all really good friends. I would do almost anything for them.

@SmileyJaws So.. I'm just going to post... This is ridiculous lol I'll get something together tonight or tomorrow morning. (had to take some work home so I may not have enough time to get a full thought in)
@Emuxe Sure thing! Jaxon isn't very social though so he may not speak much.. maybe she's in the shop when things go down? There is bullet proof glass and bars on the windows lol
Hello! Just a teensy weensy rule reminder. Please allow at least 2 other people to post before you post again. Also, I removed the rule on post size, a few were going by it, some weren't, I decided it didn't matter anyway! =]
He wears a red, oil covered t-shirt under a brown Carhart jacket with olive drab 5.11 cargo pants underneath. Concealed carried is a Glock 19 Gen4 with 2 extra mags (its a 9mm pistol that holds 15 rounds per magazine giving him 45 rounds), he carried this with him at all times despite the restrictive gun laws in New York state. He also wore a tungsten carbide wedding band.
Personality: Jaxon has a bad attitude about most things. He never gives anyone the benefit of the doubt takes a long time to begin to trust and loses trust after the first lie, even a simple white lie. He has no friends or comrades and doesn't want any. He'll often call someone out if they do something stupid as harshly as possible.
Job/Career: Gunsmith/Gun shop owner
Biography: Jaxon grew up in south-east Michigan, he was a well behaved child and teenager despite the crime pouring his way from the Detroit area. His father was a grocery store owner and avid hunter and began teaching him about firearms from a young age. He loved to hunt, being out in the wilderness looking for the beautiful antlers of a White-tail deer (common in the midwest US). After graduating high school he became apprentice to a local gunsmith and began learning the trade.
At this time he met the love of his life Hannah. Hannah grew up on a dairy and apple farm, she was charming and charismatic. Jaxon loved her with everything he had. They smiled and laughed together, the happy days of his life. At the age of 24 they married, a year later Jaxon finished his apprenticeship and Hannah was pregnant.
Jaxon thought it was a good time to start fresh. He found an empty shop space in Queens New York and a small apartment a short train ride away. With this he moved himself and his wife to New York where he opened a gun shop and advertised gun-smithing. After a few months his first son was born and named Garrett. They lived happily as his business boomed with success.
With his expert skill in gun-smithing taking wind he began getting visits from representatives of local mob bosses, trying to recruit him as their own personal gunsmith. Jaxon refused every offer given, no matter the cost. After 3 years of attempts and denials his life changed. Hannah came by the shop to drop off his lunch and bring the now 3 year old Garrett over to visit 'Daddy'. That afternoon Jaxon went home as he regularly did to find that his wife and child were not there. He assumed they may still be out on the town and decided not to panic. He cooked himself dinner and watched TV with a beer in hand. At some point he fell asleep as the sound of his alarm in the bedroom rang.
Jaxon's eyes opened in a flash. Hannah had not been home all night. He grabbed his jacket and went out in search of her. A city of many and he had to find one. Panic filled him, he checked the park, all the local hotels and motels and called both his and her parents. She was not seen anywhere. "Maybe she stayed at the shop?" He thought to himself. He rushed to the shop where the doors were still locked from the night before. He unlocked the door, entered, and locked the door again behind him. "Think. THINK!" He yelled to himself.
At this point the worst came to him mind, he began strapping himself in as many guns as he could conceal and walked out the back door leading to the trash bin. The door only opened partial way and stopped against an object. He let the door close behind him and saw the bodys of Hannah and Garrett. Garrett had a round wound square in the middle of his forehead. Hannah's clothes were ripped off and there were bruises on her hips, breasts and neck. She too had a round bullet hole in the middle of her forehead. Jaxon knelt down and held Hannah, putting his jacket over her bare body. The tears were blinding, and memories of that week have long disappeared.
Jaxon moved his shop to Manhattan and began living in an apartment right above it, keeping to himself and spending each day in his shop and at the range.
Current Residence: Northern Manhattan
Strengths: Excellent shooter with all weapon types and skilled handyman. Strong.
Weaknesses: Almost emotionless and unfriendly to anyone who isn't a customer in his shop. Doesn't trust anyone with anything. Bad temper.
@Rusalka Seems that way, Madam Mitzuki wonders as she pleases you never know when she'll show up.
@cloudystar This character looks good but, please follow the character template. His ability is a little too strong for this RP. I'm sorry.. if you adjust it some then it should be okay.
I figured as much! Welcome to the Guild! Posts use a BBCode format, there's a cheat-sheet at the bottom of the page if you need it. Otherwise have fun! =] If you have any questions don't be shy!
