the truth is, everyone has a thing for cat girls. the question or not is whether if one is self-aware. once awareness has been reached, the possibilities of anthro-girls are limitless. such is the way
Ooo, I know an Inkarnate map when I see one! Been using Wonderdraft myself, but damn if Inkarnate isn't the more user-friendly to use.
Haven't done a group RP in a long, long time, but I could give this a shot if you'll have me. Thinking of writing a semi-comic relief character who has a completely different (wrong) understanding as to what's going on due to language differences. My idea is that his people only very recently settled in the north-east (~within 50 years?) and were formerly nomadic sea peoples raiding the coast.
I made plenty of OCs who were the stereotypical whiny and emo sort of characters in my youth. Just thinking of them makes my cringe.
Thankfully, I've since taken the lobotomy pick to most of them and revamped their personalities to be better characters. Gotta do the 3Rs in fiction too, I say. Saves a lot of trouble.
So far I was thinking maybe a brother/sister adventurer pair. Humans, most likely. Maybe they could just show up at the inn every now and then and drop some information about the wider world.
I'm not new, but I've been away for...3 years now? I was on the old guild as 'Phreniphorm', and I previously had an account of which the email and password I've forgotten years ago ('Skythikon').
Anyway, I'm getting back into writing and figured that RP-ing would be a good way to polish my skills/keep them up to par.

Appearance
Ganzheng is not a particularly imposing individual, standing at roughly 1.78 meters tall and weighing in at 68 kilograms. His slim frame belies the strength in his sinewy muscles, and in combat he is more than able of holding his own. His brown eyes are set into a serious face that is almost eerily stone-like, as if he were truly unable of emoting.
In combat, he chooses to wear the equipment that he is most comfortable with, which would either be the standard camouoflage of the PAPF, or an all-black kit. Outside of combat, he would still choose to wear off-duty fatigues or just a t-shirt with his combat pants and boots.
Profile 'Silk hiding steel' is a phrase most often used to describe the quintessential aristocratic lady of Imperial China. She would be well-versed in etiquette, soft-spoken, and carry herself with a air of grace and elegence. However, should anyone threaten the safety of her person or that of her family, then she would quickly prove them wrong with a clear, sharp mind and an almost ruthless determination to deal with the threat.
Although Ganzheng - a young man hailing from one of China's north-eastern provinces - is perhaps the farthest thing from an ancient Chinese noblewoman, the phrase still fits him rather aptly. On the surface, he displays a rather gentle disposition; always willing to use soft approaches as a first resort, unfailingly polite, and generally a man of a few words.
However, should push come to shove, or should all other efforts be found wanting, Ganzheng has no qualms about resorting to using tough and oftentimes violent methods to achieve victory. Dedicated to both his team mates and his profession, he sees no difference between operational failure and personal failure; the former can only be the result of the latter, as far as he is concerned. As such, in missions, he is a very focused individual, and cares little for accolades or personal glory. He is simply there to get the job done as efficiently as possible.
Ability: Que'qiao (Lit. Magpie Bridge) The Que'qiao Intelligence Gathering Device consists of two main components: A central networking and data collection device called Qiao (Bridge), and five miniature, semi-autonomous drones known as Que (Magpies). The Magpies are, despite their name, not aerial drones. Rather, they are spherical objects measuring approximately two inches in diameter. A central ring housing a camera is sandwiched on both sides by free-rotating hemispheres, which provides propulsion. An inertial propulsion system allows the Magpies to 'jump' over small obstacles and to ascend steps.
Utilising cloud-computing and hive-mind networking technology, the Magpies are able to draw on the Bridge's computational power to bypass most security systems, allowing either the operator to take control of remotely-controlled devices, or for the Magpie to begin data mining and extraction operations. Fitted with a camera and microphone, the Magpies are also capable of carrying out usual surveillance duties. The movements of the Magpies are coordinated by a rudimentary AI onboard the Bridge, thus allowing for minimal operator input in control and deployment; the operator needs only to send the Magpies off on their initial path, and the Bridge would automatically prevent them from getting too close to one another to prevent detection and to maximise efficiency.
Biography Ganzheng grew up in a military family. Starting from his great-grandfather, who had fought in the Boxer Rebellion of 1911, and then took part in the Xinhai Revolution later that same year. His grandfather and granduncles fought as communist insurgents in the North-east of China during the Second World War, and then carried on to serve in the People's Volunteer Army during the Korean War. His father only barely missed taking part in the Sino-Vietnamese war, but did serve in the army during the tumultuous 1980s.
As such, Ganzheng had always known that he would end up serving his country in one way or another. The only difference was that instead of joining the People's Liberation Army, his path took him to the People's Armed Police Force. The PLA, while a respectable force in Ganzheng's eyes, seemed far too hands-off to him; they guarded the frontiers, went on maneuvers, but Ganzheng wanted something more active and more direct when it came to serving the people. He wanted to be there whenever and wherever the people needed him.
Thus, Ganzheng joined his local police department at the age of eighteen. As a patrol cop, he displayed a knack for reading people. He could quite accurately determine whether or not suspects were lying to him based on their expressions, gestures, and manner of speaking. This skill was further developed when his superiors sent him for further training to become an interrogator. However, Ganzheng chose to apply for the Special Police Unit soon after the completion of his course.
With the Special Police Unit, he introduced some rather questionable methods into his set of interrogation tactics. Of course, there were strict regulations on physical means, but as far as Ganzheng was concerned, the PAPF were rather vague when it came to things relating to the psychological. Regardless, he became rather well-known for his ability to extract the truth from suspects. His callsign, 'Er'lang', reflect this; in Chinese mythology, Er'lang is the god bearing the third, truth-seeking eye.
Ganzheng's performance as part of the Special Police Unit impressed his superiors enough that they sent him to Beijing to attend the selection course for the elite Snow Leopard Commando Unit. Though Ganzheng was byno means an exemplary applicant, he did pass selection with above average results. His first year with the SLCU was rather ordinary; he took part in drills, active operations, and generally did everything a trooper could expect to do. In his second year, however, he voluntarily attended courses on electronic warfare, which resulted in him developing the Que'qiao Intelligence Gathering Device over the course of two years.
With his rather specific skill-set, and his commitment to duty, his superiors chose him to represent the PAPF - and by extension, China - in the newly activated Rainbow Seven.

I joined the chat, but I think my discord is acting up because it's not showing any message log or users in the channel. I'll try again tomorrow, since it's getting a little late here.
