Bio

Yo! You actually are reading this bio! Wow! That's awesome! You should feel very proud of yourself, taking up your time, simply to read this bio, which I have constructed for you to read. You have no clue how completely validated I feel each time someone actually reads this bio. It certainly does wonders for one's self esteem, as you wouldn't believe how many people will look through my profile without bothering to read this fantastic bio, and yet, here you are. You, of all people, somehow still contain the willpower and determination to continue reading this bio. It must be as it was spoken in the prophecy, that those whom hold a place in your future will take the time to read your entire bio. That prophecy, of course, was nothing more than a lie. However, even this information doesn't deter you, does it? At this point, I'm truly not sure how you are still reading this. Could it be because you have sworn to yourself that you would finish reading this bio, no matter how boring or meaningless it might be? Or perhaps you are merely bored yourself, using this abnormally long bio as a way to take your mind off of some worldly troubles which you are currently afflicted in. It may even be possible that you are taking up a habit which I have performed many a time myself: you sit at your workplace with some sort of responsibility staring you in the face. Rather than facing this responsibility, however, you choose to ignore it entirely! You logged onto this website, whether it be on your computer, laptop, or smartphone, and somehow, with a surprising mix of luck and chance, you found yourself on my profile page, where you began reading my once seemingly innocent bio, and now find yourself in a snare that has hence lasted approximately 1,750 characters. Certainly a daunting number, don't you think so? I can only imagine that one such as you is asking, "Why is this person's bio so abnormally long? Where did he get this innate idea to waste not only my time, but his own, to write such an atrociously long bio for his profile page on this website? Well, truthfully, this bio came to being simply through an observation and a theory. While waiting for a response in a roleplay session, I glanced through my bio and saw that I had not yet written a bio. Thinking that it would be fun to give the majority of users and guests on this website some basic information about myself, I opened the tab to find that I could potentially type up to 100,000 characters. One hundred thousand characters! For one measly bio! I scoffed at the idea at first, but it truly intrigued me. I thought to myself, "What if I could somehow find a way to meet that maximum?" Surely, it would make me a king among the common masses of this website! Rumors would spread like wildfire of the man who had taken the time to type a one hundred thousand character bio! And I was not to use any cheeky tactics either. No copying and pasting, no images, no gibberish speak, merely me, taking the time out of my weekend to sit down and type a bio that was one hundred thousand words long! I decided at once to begin the journey and from there... Well, you know what happened from there. You've been reading it all, after all... Haven't you? You certainly weren't scrolling mindlessly through this masterfully created bio instead of taking the time to read and appreciate each carefully chosen word... Were you? *gasp* You weren't? How dare you! I take the precious time out of my day, nay, out of my week, to craft you a bio, a story, and you, with your absentmindedly scrolling fingers and your careless attitude, truly believe that you could scroll through this bio, perhaps check the end for some hidden secret and somehow avoid the full power of my rage? Oh, I'm sorry? Am I being too violent? Too aggressive? Too angry? You haven't even seen me angry!!!
...oh my. I'm so sorry. That truly was uncalled for. Can you... can you forgive me? Please? Oh, you will? Thank you, thank you so much! I'll make up for the mistake I've made, I promise! I'm just... shocked at what happened back there. Oh my, I'm starting to wonder if the pressure of such a large order is starting to get to me. Just look at me! Not only am I expecting myself to type out a 100,000 character essay, but now, you are too! Oh, don't try and deny it! After reading all of this waste of time, you know that you will only feel satisfied if I manage to somehow crank out 100,000 characters! Otherwise, such an endeavor would be merely pointless! There's got to be some way to appease both you and myself, some way for both of us to truly feel... happy.
Wait. I think I just had an idea. I know this is going to sound crazy, but just hear me out. What if I type one hundred thousand characters... but I don't? Perhaps, I could write every last character in 5,000 character segments like this? That way, eventually I will have a 100,000 word bio and not go insane. Does that sound good? Great! In that case, FIRST SEGMENT COMPLETE!

Finally getting this posted! And thanks again for all your help with images and crap. :P

@HushedWhispers@lovely complex Thank you both! Once I figure out what to do how to deal with the picture, I'll post my character sheet.
For some reason, my pictures are not showing in preview mode. Is this because I'm on mobile or do I just have to post the post to see the picture?
@Squiggle I'll try that. Thanks!
To begin, yeah, I'm probably posting this in the wrong thread. And also, I know, it's the dreaded MOBILE POSTER!!! Well, as uncomfortable as it is, I'm not gonna have access to an actual computer for a LONG time. So I was wondering if there was any way to post pictures while I'm using this dreaded tiny screen and keyboard combination until I find a computer I can use. If you could help out, it would make this whole experience a tad more bearable.

Alright, good start, Harold. Now keep it up. After a few minutes of scanning the walls of their confines, the other members of their room burst into action. Another of his new roommates, Jewish, from the look of their headdress, began to approach him and spoke to him. "Hey, you have any idea what's going on?" Harold glanced over his shoulder and responded with a small smile, "Well, not yet, but the point of experimentation is to find results, is it not? Do you think you could lend a hand?" He celebrated internally at the second set of hands. If this guy helped him, theoretically, they could cut the work time in half. Honestly, he could tell that there was most likely plenty more to be uncovered here that he was looking at on the short term.

Indeed, another of the men in the room pointed out a large flaw in his plan. Two, in fact. Harold let out a small sigh in frustration as he realized. I should've thought to look under the beds or examine the words. He tried to maintain his neutrally positive expression as he spoke. "Thanks! I'll go check that out now." He walked over to the television, where he saw what appeared to be their only sort of actual clue.

BROKEN.

What does it mean? The only broken thing that he saw was the television. Or perhaps the beds, given their relative uncomfortableness. He took a moment to thank his recently filed fingernails; they would serve him well in the task ahead. However, scratching at the words seemingly carved into the wall revealed nothing. It was almost as if they were somehow part of the original design of the wall. That was impossible, of course, but the wall remained its integrity even through desperate scratching. All the change that he noticed was a woman in a pink skirt sit up on her bed. Certainly, it was a difference from his regular attire, but each was entitled to their own style, he supposed. Personally, he was just glad that he still wore his black suit and purple tie. It gave him a sense of maturity and capability, despite their hopeless situation.

A new voice in the crowd was what knocked him out of a bit of a daze. Harold turned to see another man had woken up. He was happy to see that the newcomer got straight down to business. Even more so when he convinced the girl in the skirt to help them. "Great. The more people we have searching, the better chance we have of actually finding something." Speaking directly to the girl, he said, "Do you think you could look under the empty beds? Just under the sheets, mattresses, just in case whoever stuck us in here thought they could pull a fast one over us." Realizing that his scratching was getting him nowhere, he voiced this observation to the group. "The walls aren't peeling away near the words. Somehow, it's like they're part of the wall. I'm not sure how."

As he moved back to examining the walls, another young woman woke up into a sitting position. Harold turned to her and said nonchalantly, "As long as you're up, would you mind checking under your bed for anything? We're just trying to get a scope of the place." While he turned to the wall and continued, he really started to notice was the difference between everyone in this room. Most serial killers had some sort of signature, but their serial kidnapper seemed to lack this. It was clear that everyone in here was not of the same appearance, gender, religion, or age. So why were we the ones to be targeted? Pushing such thoughts aside, he continued to examine the walls. It seemed to be the only thing he could do without making himself look and feel helpless.

OOC: I'm pretty sure I've at least mentioned everyone who has posted so far, so it seems like an exercise in futility to tag everyone. Carry on.
Just out of curiosity, who is going for a "hero" and who is going for a "villain"? I air quote these cause I imagine as young people attending school, we don't completely know what we want to do with ourselves. I doubt all the students at either school or downright completely good or bad. There would most likely be uncertainty and grey areas.


I was honestly thinking of going for a "villain" sort of character. They would personally rather be known as a hero, but due to past events, they don't think they can. He really is a nice guy, but he's sort of withdrawn, so it takes a while to get him to open up to anyone.

In terms of powers, I was thinking about them having some sort of time altering powers. They would be able to slow down time or, with much more effort, could be able to stop time entirely for small periods of time. Not too sure on an alias yet, but probably something to do with time or clocks. I don't really know :P
Definitely showing interest in this! Although, should we post completed character sheets here in the OOC section or PM them to one of the GM's?
Wow! This roleplay is advanced, story-driven, and affected by our character's personality as well as chance? It's meeting all of my standards!
Definitely showing interest in this!
