I'm not usually too fond of strict post orders either, but I've seen too many RP's go completely to shit due to chaotic posting otherwise.

Finally out of school. Should be able to get proper roleplay done now. My apologies to the RP's I had to abandon.

Under a Long Lost Sky: Reboot. (Cyberpunk RP Interest check)

Forum: Advanced Interest Checks
This will take place in the “Undercity” A huge city underneath New Denver, which was built on top of the original city with synthetic ground, resulting in the original city becoming a huge network of caverns underneath it. As population continued to swell, poorer residents of New Denver were forced underground into the slums of the Undercity, and in this day and age most residents haven’t even seen the sun or sky. The air is stale from constant air-recycler use, and a cloud of smog, created from a mix of various types of smoke, permeates the air, making gas masks and rebreathers a valuable commodity.
The huge skyscrapers have been turned into living complexes, with tiny cubicles separated by a thin sheet of cloth acting as homes for most residents. The lucky ones might have a real apartment, or even a house, but most such buildings have been taken over by competing storefronts or gangs. Bright neon lights flash at every turn, each one vying for attention in the hopes of attracting a potential customer, and seedy bars and nightclubs can be found practically at every turn.
The main profit for those unlucky enough to not have wares to sell is dangerous factory work, as much of the undercity is devoted to cheaply producing the various items that those living on the surface use in daily life.
As far as fashion goes, most people simply wear whatever they have, but those who are able to afford a bit more tend to try and emulate the sleek look common on surface residents.
Cybernetic enhancement is common on the surface, but due to the expensive medical procedures required proper cybernetics are rarely used by any but the most wealthy Undercity Dwellers, and most cybernetics are applied by “hacks”; so-called medical professionals who have “misplaced” their medical license. Hack-jobs are hit-or-miss, as they can be as good as the real thing, or you might end up missing your limb and your kidney, but they are also significantly cheaper than acquiring cybernetics through the proper channels.
The police force has an Undercity branch, which is almost a completely separate force from the polite, safety-first NDPD. The “UCPD” as they’re sometimes referred to, are trigger-happy, corrupt, and as dangerous as the violent gangs that all-but rule the Undercity, and are only too happy to resort to deadly force on people who aren’t able to pay their bribes. Robots are a fairly common sight in the Undercity, but primarily the utilitarian ones used in factory work or the military-grade robots often employed by the UCPD. Certain large-scale businesses that operate in the Undercity employ androids to work the front desk, as they are even cheaper than human labor, but beyond that androids are rarely if ever seen.
We will be playing as a group of “Scroungers”; tightly knit groups of people trying to survive. Scroungers live by their own rules, often selling items they steal to store owners, taking odd jobs, and doing what they can to survive. Scroungers live on the belief of safety in numbers, and that while they might not always get along with eachother, if they want to survive being in a group with multiple talents is much better than being on your own
I will be playing as a member of our group of Scroungers, as well as various NPC’s. There will be a list of important NPC’s who we may or may not encounter but who will effect the undercity whether we see them directly or not. Including myself, there will be six slots available.
Our group of scroungers has taken up residence in a small building that nay have once been an apartment or a small house. There's very little space in the home, with the residents sharing two bedrooms and one bathroom. The remaining rooms are used as storage or entertainment. Outside leads onto the neon lit, haze-filled streets, with several shop owners and fences willing to buy stolen goods from scroungers. The other main hangout is Sandy's, a bar/nightclub nearby. The neighborhood is ruled by a large gang, and contacts for both this gang and some of their enemies can be found for jobs. The police presence is lesser here as they've been adequately bribed by the ruling gang, but they occasionally stop through for "surprise inspections".
After enough people have thrown in interest I'll start up a main thread. Posting will work like this: When the main thread is created I'll make an IC intro post which will set the stage, and an IC intro post for my character. When your character is accepted you can make an intro post. Once all intro posts have been made or an unreasonably long time period passes before a new character is made I'll make another GM post, and post order will be the same as the order of intro posts. Each full post order is a round, and I will make a GM post every certain number of rounds, which will be stated on the previous GM post.

Is this still a thing that's happening?
I'm going to make a Lightclan character also. Then the roster will be almost balanced out in numbers.
Once Culot's posted I'll add in a GM post and we'll start working off a proper post-order.
Sweet, looking forward to more AshClan members.
If you need help with character ideas, I created the clan so I'm sure I could help.

Palestar
Appearance
Name
Palestar
Age

Sex
Male
Mate
None
Clan Role
Leader
Clan
AshClan
Mentor/Apprentice
No current apprentice
Skills
Palestars coat and size makes him somewhat less effective of a hunter than other warriors, but his true capabilities lie in his ability as a leader. Since the last leader died and Palestar became clan leader, AshClan has experienced a near golden age, with Palestars negotiation even creating a stretch of no mans land in the mountains where CliffClan and AshClan can meet without fear of crossing territory markers.
Scars/Birthmarks
None
Relationships
Has a close platonic relationship with his deputy Amberdust, often spending time in private conversation with her when he needs a break from his work.
Personality
Palestar is strong willed and can often be stubborn when he makes up his mind to do something, but when something must be decided outside his personal life he is clear-headed and always makes the decision he believes will best benefit the clan.
Biography
Palestar was, as a kit, the runt of the litter, taking the brunt of roughhousing from other kits and babied by adult cats even as an Apprentice, and because of this he made it a point to prove he was as good as or even better than the other warriors in the clan. Ultimately this caught the attention of the clan leader and he was, to everyones surprise including his own, made deputy, and eventually succeeded the previous leader.
Extras
Palestars mother, Longfang, was one of the clans greatest warriors, one who was believed to be descended from the Lynxes. She is now one of the Elders, having grown too old to be out hunting, but if the clan was attacked she is still quite capable, and very proud and supportive of her kit. His three siblings are warriors of the clan, though none of them have yet exhibited the capabilities of their mother. Their names are Redfang, Greeneye, and Whispfur.

@culot @Horrid @Austronaut The first IC post is up. If you're still interested in this, we can get started.
The day was windy, as was often the case here on the shore. The skies above Ravenhome were a dark gray that threatened rain but so far existed in an uneasy truce with the town below. As was always the case, the air was filled with the smell of the ocean, though sometimes scents of food of many varieties would find its way through the streets.
And in Ravenhome, three people have just become bound together by fate, or destiny, or perhaps something as simple as coincidence, these people have set out to investigate the wreck of an old cargo ship, and are going to find far more than they bargained for.
