Bio: Ricky was born in New York City, to an addict single mother. He lived in poverty, going to school to get away from his mother and his home. Due to acting up and a lack of any punishment, he began to fail his classes and began to explore drugs at a young age, just like his mother. He started staying out overnight getting high and causing trouble. By the time he was 16 he had been arrested 5 times (vandalizing, destruction of public property, trespassing, petty theft) and wouldn't come home for whole weeks at a time. He began to sell drugs for a gang to support his habits. He'd also act as an enforcer on those who wouldn't pay what they owed to the gang (for whatever reason that may be). Ricky's drugs of choice are mainly heroin and marijuana. He Ricky always acts first and thinks later, which often gets him into trouble. Recently someone owed money to the gang so Ricky decided to 'send him a message' by burning his house down. What he didn't know, however, was that the man was a courier for a drug lord and had over five million dollars worth of drugs in the house. Ricky was told that he had ten days to pay off the money or he would be killed. Ricky knew he couldn't afford it and also wouldn't let them win, so he decided to kill himself.
Purpose of Flight: Ricky has lived in the area for a while but never actually saw Yosemite. So he thought he'd take a tour. Also, he planned to kill himself by jumping off the helicopter over the park.
Yosemite Summary: It's about the size of RI and has thousands of lakes and ponds. Granite rocks make up the structures you see in Yosemite. Most visitors stay in the park, which is only 1% of the area. 95% of Yosemite is wilderness. There are about 400 species of animals living in Yosemite, mostly because of the diverse topography. Yosemite Falls is the tallest in North America. There are bears, bobcats and foxes in Yosemite. There are many glaciers and valleys. Its surrounded by wilderness areas.
Summary of the Rules: This roleplay is focused around realistic survival, not romance or fighting off 200 wolves after they've bitten off your legs.
