Congrats, @MatthiasAngel, you are approved! Kudos for using the extra lore as part of your character. Go ahead and move your character sheet over to the characters tab.

5 slots remain!

We can also continue any OOC chatter here while we wait for everyone to catch up and see this.

Valour & Vale: A RWBY Roleplay (Closed)

My main question about weapon tech has already been answered - I was actually almost looking forward to figuring out a more primitive but interesting combination weapon. Good to know there is more flexibility there, though.

We can play Faunus characters, then, as long as we take into account that the prejudice against them will likely be very strong depending on the area they are going through - as children of those who lived through the Great War, they will probably have lots of memories of prejudice.

This brings up the matter of character age: The Academies start training at age 17 and go for four years, so none of our characters would theoretically be older than 21, right?

So, what about names? The Great War was fought over the right to self-expression, but if the characters are children of the rising generation, they would have already had their names given to them prior to the color naming convention that pervaded the world. I'm fine either way, I think the color naming convention is one of the distinctive setting points of RWBY - just curious how we should approach that for this, given the approximate timing.

One idea I've had already has been some type of bard or musician type of character who uses a "lute-saber." I'm not entirely sure how serious I am about this idea, just kind of tossing it out there to see what people think.

Nora Minder

Name:
Nora Minder

Species:
Human

Age:
21

Gender:
Female

Personality:
Nora is very much the absent-minded professor stereotype. When she's at work on a project, it's usually all she can think or talk about, and she'll fuel herself with coffee and take-out to push through the all-nighters she willingly enters for the sake of the project. She is very competent and confident within her field of expertise. Her focus is so tight that she will often neglect her personal safety or awareness of her surroundings while she is working on "just one more adjustment."

However, get her outside that comfort zone (which includes basically any social situation or even just going outside at times), and she becomes withdrawn, hesitant, insecure, and shy. She relies heavily on the encouragement of others to keep going when she does not have a project, or when she is assigned to a task (like being in charge of the lodge) for which she feels she has no expertise.

Appearance:
Nora is a pale blonde human female standing at about five foot eight inches. Her slightly wavy short hair is done up in a bob, with strands regularly dropping around her blue eyes and wide face. She wears a slender pair of glasses with rims supporting the lenses, though when she adjusts these glasses, they regularly catch the light and mask her eyes every so briefly. She has a medium build slightly shrouded by the perpetual white labcoat she wears over her usually rather boring and practical shirt and tan slacks, the latter supported by suspenders usually quite artfully under her labcoat.

Powers:
While she doesn't have any actual super powers per se, she has such a knack for anything related to high technology and superscience that she often can come up with a jury-rigged device from available materials to counter a particular problem - if she is given time to assemble the device and deploy it. Expect to see her doing a lot of "reversing the polarity" or "adjusting the frequency" or maybe even just kicking the device to make it work properly.

In other words, she is essentially the scientist from action movies who makes weapons, gadgets, and vehicles for the heroes.

Strengths:
Her energy and motivation are unstoppable when she's working on a supertech project, and she is a specialist in all the relevant scientific fields to creating super-powered equipment, or equipment meant to combat supers (which includes robots, cybernetic enhancements, vehicles, weapons, and gadgets). Even when encountering entirely new things, she has a fair-to-good chance of identifying any properties relevant to her fields of interest.

Weaknesses:
She needs glasses to see properly; she's blind as a bat without them. She needs to be wearing her lab coat to feel secure enough to do anything. She's oblivious if she's focused on something, so it's very easy to sneak up on her when she's in this state (or difficult for her friends to drag her away from danger).

Background:
Nora Minder was teased as a young girl about her scientific interests - even in an enlightened world in a progressive location like Segaso City, children can still be very cruel. This has resulted in Nora being comfortable only in those areas she has direct control and interest in, leading to her social ineptness because she has deliberately focused her savant skills on building technology. Her focus on her schoolwork and neglect of the rest of the world allowed her to graduate early and become an intern at Cybertronics Unlimited, where her knack for developing advanced combat systems and devices was quickly turned to great advantage and advancement in the company.

However, her enthusiasm for her work - and her disregard for her own safety - have had their drawbacks. Most recently, a humanoid vehicle design of hers exploded violently and took nearly an entire lab with it. Miraculously, no one was seriously harmed, but the property damage was high enough that Nora's manager was pressured into arranging her "extended leave" to become the administrator of the lodge. The company can't afford to let her go, but until her lab is rebuilt, they don't want her causing any further damage, so they've shunted her off to a PR project in the hopes that she'll return with a fresh perspective and have learned a valuable lesson about collateral damage.

The assignment to the lodge is a punishment to her initially. She is worried that it won't go well, and it's depressing for her to be suddenly put in charge of others while simultaneously being deprived of a project to focus on. She plans on using every free moment of her time to stay cooped up in her room and try to figure out why her previous project exploded - and fix the issue so she can go back to what she feels she does best. It is only the presence of Boxcar that keeps her from completely losing hope and curling into a ball.

Misc. Notes:
Nora has a transponder that corresponds with the shock collar around Boxcar's neck. This allows her to shock him at any time she deems it necessary, or to communicate with him and locate him if he is not physically present. See Boxcar's sheet for details on what else the collar does.

Boxcar

Name:
Boxcar

Species:
Wolf! The kind on four legs, yes

Age:
Approximately 34 in wolf years

Gender:
Male

Personality:
Boxcar is intensely practical and dislikes it when others react too emotionally to a situation. He grumbles a lot and complains about the way "two-leggers" rely too much on stuff like "feelings" and "clothes" and "hands." He outwardly resents being treated like a "doggy" (though he secretly adores being given treats, belly rubs, pettings, and cuddles). He is often critical of people for being too soft.

But he is also still by nature a pack animal, and forms strong ties of loyalty to anyone he considers part of his "pack," even unconsciously. He will fight violently to the death to protect those under his care, and his advice, though gruff, comes from a heart that wants to do good, even if sometimes it doesn't come out that well. He is a wolf, after all; social nuance among two-leggers isn't his forte.

He is full of snark and will give his opinion bluntly, yet he is confused when people respond negatively to his statements. Mostly he just wants to be free, and he despises the cadre of scientists who benefit from his super power while keeping him caged like an animal. He prefers to be enigmatic about his origins, and is not above telling tall tales of how he became the way he is.

Appearance:
Boxcar is a gray wolf with white facial markings and underbelly fur, as well as several minor gradations of black, gray and white fur all over. He also has a curious pair of markings above his eyes that look suspiciously like eyebrows, which he uses flagrantly as part of his facial expressions. He is about as big and heavy as an average human, just on all fours instead of upright. He has startling yellow eyes that peer out from his furry face. He is usually wearing a collar (see misc. notes below for details on what it does).

Powers:
Aside from having human intelligence in a wolf body, Boxcar has the ability to sniff out super powers. What this means is that he can identify if someone has a super power, what type it is, and whether it is about to be activated. For example, he can tell if someone has a magic spell in effect on them, and whether it's a good or bad enchantment. He can tell if someone is psychic, cybernetic, has mutant/meta-gene powers, or any number of other power origins.

This power can be defeated - a cyborg could have parts specially designed to sound and smell like normal body parts, for example, or a magician may cast a spell that makes their magic undetectable. But as a general rule, if a power or weapon is about to be used, he can detect it and react accordingly.

Strengths:
Boxcar has the lean body of a wolf, including a sense of smell and hearing that goes well beyond that of a regular human being, a fur coat that protects him from cold weather to a degree, and he can certainly run a lot faster than most two-leggers. He also has the intelligence of a human, so he can make better use of his body than a normal wolf would. He has a feral agility and ferocious nature that lets him bound into battle for a bite, then leap away to evade injury.

Weaknesses:
Boxcar has no hands, and therefore, can't use weapons or tools with anywhere near the effectiveness of anyone who has opposable thumbs. He is somewhat color blind, too. He is often treated like an unintelligent and dangerous animal by strangers.

Background:
Boxcar is the result of a special genetics project done by a small rogue company that was bought out by Cybertronics Unlimited. It is unknown whether he is a wolf who was granted human intelligence, or a human transformed or transferred into a wolf's body, or something else entirely. The scientists in Cybertronics don't really care, since they are only interested in his unique ability to sniff out super powers, and have been trying to replicate this ability electronically.

Since these efforts have not turned out anything successful, and since the corporation decided to sponsor a lodge for superpowered individuals, it was determined to send Boxcar along with Nora as a way to further test his power while adding security and protection to Nora. This represents the closest chance to freedom Boxcar has yearned for, but he's stuck with a shock collar to force him to stay with Nora. He awaits an opportunity to get away, though he recognizes that Nora is certainly no harm to him and could certainly use his help...

Misc. Notes:
Boxcar has a shock collar around his neck. The collar is designed to go off if he goes outside a certain distance from the corresponding transponder (which is currently in Nora Minder's possession), or if he ever threatens the holder of the transponder with physical violence. This is designed to prevent him from escaping corporate custody or damaging the transponder. The collar also allows him to be tracked down electronically, and it keeps track of his vitals and the use of his power as data stored in the collar for later analysis. A small side benefit is that the transponder also acts as a communicator between him and the one holding the transponder.

The Lodge Outside of Segaso City (RP is now closed by GM)

The gravel road turned to dirt as the hovertruck exited the narrow mountain pass and entered the forest. The vehicle resembled what might have been mistaken for a pickup truck on Earth, save that the wheels were replaced with ground-effect vectored thrust fans. It rattled and clattered a little during the transition from rough gravel to soft dirt, bringing the clamor of technology to the pristine silence of the wilderness.

Nora adjusted her glasses from where they had nearly fallen off of her face, and replaced her hand back at the wheel of the truck. "Feels like the levi-shocks are out of alignment," she muttered automatically aloud - a nervous habit the blonde scientist had tried to kick, but to no avail. "I'll have to take a look at it when we get there."

"Lady, we're gonna be lucky to get there in one piece in this clanker," grumbled the gray wolf in the seat next to her, his prominent black eyebrows quirked as he glanced sidelong at her with a grimace. He reached up with rear paw to scratch at his neck under the thick collar strapped there, but hesitated and then dropped the paw back. "You musta done somethin' real bad to get shunted off to this place in the middle of nowhere. Whadja do, run over the CEO's favorite pet?"

It was still a bizarre thing to see the wolf's lips move in a way that could form human speech, and only the need to keep focused on the road ahead kept Nora from staring out of the corner of her eye. "First off, this 'clanker' is a vintage Seriel-model with modular fuel cell-injection, one of the most reliable vehicles of its day - a classic that could easily keep working forever," and here she winced as the engine bit off a cough that shuddered the cab, and quickly added, "with the right maintenance, of course. Second, Georgia Stahlmansche doesn't keep pets, unless you count her pride and joy, the FA-11 Armada robotic assault unit, and I'd be hard-pressed to run one of those over with anything less than a Stenian medium tank.

"And third," she continued as she slumped over the console and beat it with a frustrated fist, "the lab wouldn't have blown up like that if they'd just given me a better power source to begin with! I warned them of the possibility of an overload, and it wasn't even like anyone got hurt in the explosion!" Her hands came off the wheel as she gestured broadly in front of herself. "How do they expect me to make the next generation walking weapons platform if they give me toys to play with?!"

The wolf, with a pained expression, lunged against his seatbelt and managed to hook his front paws over the rim of the wheel, just in time to yank the hovertruck back onto the road from its near-collision with a tree. "Okay, okay, I believe ya! Just keep yer eyes on the road, will ya? I didn't get out of that lab just to die out here!"

Nora regained control of the wheel as the wolf sat back and wiped his forehead with a paw in an exaggerated fashion. "Oh, what am I gonna do, Boxcar?" she wailed. "I'm not good with people, or with going outside, or being an administrator - I just want to do science!"

The wolf named Boxcar patted her on the shoulder with a paw, then pointed ahead with his nose as they finally came out of the thick screen of trees and out into a mountain glen. "Hey, there it is! That must be the place."

The road ended directly in front of a two-vehicle garage attached to the side of the wooden building that stood at the end of their journey. It looked like a large log-sided cabin, two stories tall and maple-colored with a gently sloping roof of brick red tiles. A large bay window stood to the left of the front door, which opened onto a covered porch. A gray stone chimney pointed to the sunny early-summer sky, and a large satellite dish signaled that the rustic look of the building belied a remaining connection to civilization.

Just across from the dirt road and a stretch of grass from the cabin was a tan sandy beach surrounding a crystal-clear lake, a little bigger than an Olympic-sized swimming pool and - through some twist of geologic fate - sat in a sand-and-stone depression rather than in a muddy-bottomed hole. Rising above the roof, tall evergreen and deciduous trees made it clear that stepping out the back door would land a person right into the forest again, a forest that seemed to skitter up to the back of the lodge from its hiding place in the mountains that nestled the valley without making it claustrophobic.

"So, here it is, Boxcar...

The Lodge!"

"I'd rather be back in my lab, but...this is amazing," admitted Nora with a smile as she adjusted her glasses while leaning forward.

"Hey, anything's better than my cage back at Cybertronics HQ." Boxcar's ears perked as he turned his head slightly as the front door of the lodge opened. "Look, I think that's the handyman who's supposed to give us the grand tour."

A brown-haired human wearing a heather gray T-shirt, relaxed blue jeans, gray mechanic's gloves with red fingers, and tennis shoes to match his gloves stepped out onto the porch with a friendly wave. Nora pulled the truck to a stop just outside the garage, and after helping Boxcar out of his seat belt, she found herself shaking hands with the turquoise-eyed man.

"Justin Hobbes, freelance maintenance," introduced the young man as he looked the two over. "I've just finished the work that Cybertronics Unlimited asked me to do, so I'm ready to turn the place over to you whenever you're ready."

"N-Nora Minder, R&D for Cybertronics Unlimited," stammered Nora as she looked up at the man who was about nine inches taller than her, by her estimation.

"Boxcar, wolf," Boxcar introduced himself without preamble as he sniffed Justin's hand. "Huh, machine oil, metal tang, and the distinct lack of ambient mana comin' from you...yer not a native to this planet, are ya?"

Justin yanked his hand back like he'd been bitten as he stared at the wolf, but then gave out a kind-hearted laugh at his open surprise. "Got it in one! Came from a null-mana world, so I have terrible reactions to magic. How could you tell?"

"I smell super powers," answered Boxcar simply. "That's why the company sent me with the perfesser here."

Nora wasn't sure whether Boxcar had merely mispronounced "professor" with his grumbly drawl, or if his canine muzzle couldn't handle the word.

"If what I hear about this place is true, then you're going to need that talent," offered Justin amiably. "So! You two ready for the tour?"

Nora reached up to the edge of one lens of her slimline glasses, and a quick stroke pulled up a Heads-Up Display that brought her a multitude of data wirelessly from the portable computer terminal in her long white lab coat's pocket. She checked the time, and it had just become ten o'clock in the morning. "The others should be arriving soon," she said as she turned the display off with a tap. "We...we could just wait for them to show up in the bus so we could do the tour in one go for everyone?"

Justin cradled his chin with a hand thoughtfully, then gave a lopsided smirk and nodded. "Fine by me - I'm getting paid by the hour anyway. If you want, I can park your Seriel in the garage for you."

"Oh, it's not mine, it's a company loaner," explained Nora as she handed over the vehicle key. Then she gasped. "You recognized the model?!"

The man shrugged as he got into the cab. "I'm a mechanic, I worked on one that some Vertolian wanted to get restored - while upsizing it to let his eight-foot-tall frame fit into it. After all the work that took, I'd recognized those ground effect fins anywhere."

Boxcar sighed as the two humans began jabbering in technobabble and working on the vehicle, and he went to the edge of the road to look out and see who was coming up the road next...

The Lodge Outside of Segaso City (RP is now closed by GM)

The Lodge

---

Welcome to the lodge! In an attempt to get some PR on the side with people from across the world of Faiza, Cybertronics Unlimited is sponsoring a wilderness retreat near Segaso City to provide a place of rest and recuperation to individuals with unique powers or backgrounds. This pilot program is co-sponsored by the nation of Ridalia, who has sent a young heir of one of their noble families along to enjoy the vacation and to inspect this investment. Of course, there may be other reasons why a major robotics corporation would send these individuals to an isolated cabin in the mountains...

The point of this RP, broadly speaking, is to bring together a group of unlikely heroes to a single location and then have a bunch of adventures. This will combine and feature elements of superhero, fantasy, sci-fi, romance, and slice-of-life, as the characters that form the core group of "lodgers" grow together through their trials as well as their lazy days. Whether fighting for their lives against alien invasions, or playing hard during a swim day at the lake, this RP will follow the story of a unique group of characters who will potentially change the fate of Faiza forever...

What I'm looking for:

• Number of players: up to 6 for this first go-round. If anyone drops out, I'll open the slot for anyone else who wants to join later. Priority will go to players who have completed CSes, though the final decision remains solely mine.

• Number of characters per player: 1, at first - we'll add more later if things go well! Post your character in the characters tab only after you have received approval from me in the OOC thread.

• Approximate power level: As an example, Spider-Man more than Superman - certainly no powers that can solve problems or win battles entirely on their own, and try to keep creative with the use of powers rather than just blast or slam everything into oblivion. I'll be the final judge if I feel something is unbalanced.

• Variety of characters: Humans, aliens, androids, robots, otherdimensional creatures, anthros (or furries) - with or without powers. Whatever you think would add spice to the RP and to any relationships that might develop in it! As far as the good/evil spectrum go, I'd prefer the main characters be heroes to keep them from fighting too much among themselves, but if we add more characters down the road or if the story dictates, I'd be willing to let players run villains, either for longer-term plots or one-shots.

• Tone/Content: We're going for cinematic, here - Rule of Cool and Rule of Fun will apply in moderation. I also want to keep this RP relatively family-friendly and fairly upbeat, which means a minimum of blood, no gore, no "onscreen" sex or heavy references thereto. Will there be violence and death? Certainly! Will there be romance? I hope so! Just keep it to levels you might expect to see on a cartoon show about superheroes - for examples, the Avengers movies or the Young Justice cartoon.

• Pacing: I am not going to impose any mandatory time limits on posting, or any kind of posting order. That said, I'd like to keep it brisk and engaging, interesting for the group.

• Worldbuilding and Character Development: I have some stuff to start with, but ultimately, I want to work with you to make a fun, interesting and consistent world you'd like to come visit.

The World of Faiza:

• A brief summary: Can you imagine a world that is Earthlike, but is not Earth? You know, your standard M-class planet - blue seas, green continents, and white clouds in the sky, that sort of jazz. Now, picture that it's in a similar solar system in a different part of the galaxy; that it has only five continents; that it is inhabited by not only humans, but anthropomorphic animals, aliens, robots, creatures from the celestial and abyssal pantheons of countless religions, monsters of mythology personified, and even beings from alternate dimensions. Add to this that even the mortal inhabitants are often born or gifted with special powers - mutant abilities, magical aptitude, psionic training, cybernetic enhancement, or even just the guts to fight against impossible odds. It is literally a world full of heroes.

And then this planet we are speaking of is rich in natural resources and located in a strategic location. It happens to be within the range of several different galaxy-spanning nations and organizations, and is intersected by several universal ley lines. This partly explains the heavy presence of non-natives, as well as the constant attention the planet receives. Alien invasions, giant monster attacks, apocalypse events, supervillain schemes, the manipulations of extra-planetary governments trying to bend the planet to their will through diplomacy or force - this has all happened in this planet's long and peril-filled history. Oh, and Godzilla was transferred here from Earth for safe-keeping.

You are picturing this world right now? Have it set in your mind? Good. Because there is a world like that, and its name is Faiza.

More Lore:

Faiza has five continents. To begin with, I will introduce two of these, as they will be the most immediately relevant.

The first is Melaben, the one that Segaso City and the lodge are located on. Melaben is a temperate continent with a diverse amount of terrain and culture, and is home to a Federation that is similar to Earth's United States. The capitalistic lifestyle has introduced several corporations that strongly influence the political landscape, yet this conflict usually cancels itself out in a positive fashion for local citizens. One such corporation, Cybertronics Unlimited, is run by a human named Georgia Stahlmansche rumored to be from a parallel dimensional version of Earth - CU is one of the premiere robotics, cybernetics and electronics development and production companies on Faiza, and their reputation for efficiency is matched by Stahlmansche's immense confidence and charisma. Segaso City is the capital of Melaben and the Federation.

The second continent, Korduun, is home to two major nations: Ridalia and Vancau. These two nations are very powerful militarily, but their hatred of one another has fortunately kept them focused more on one another than on the rest of the world. Ridalia is ruled by several major noble Houses that form the Ridalian Council, while Vancau is dominated by the iron fist of its Emperor and his Governors. Ridalia has strong diplomatic ties with governments and corporations outside of itself, and thus has access to resources and technology that, instead of allowing to change their way of life, they have used to augment their somewhat anachronistic feudal form of life; their techno-knights ride into battle on robo-steeds, wielding thermal crossbows and photon cutlasses. Vancau as a rule relies on fierce dark magic and a host of monsters and allies from other dimensions or from outer space to aid them in their battles, and Vancau looks very much like a step backwards in time compared to the shiny Ridalia. At this time, there is an uneasy ceasefire between the two nations, but all it usually takes is some idiot to become the hyphen in a Ridalia-Vancau war.

The overall technology level of Faiza is difficult to quantify, since it is a mishmash of various technologies. Just walking down the street, it will probably not feel much different than early 21st-century Earth cities - there will be people listening to personal audio devices, glancing at their communicators, traveling in vehicles. It is the sheer variety and style of tech that may be overwhelming. Displays will be holographic and neon, or be integrated into eyewear, clothing or wristbands; some vehicles will fly or walk alongside regular wheeled ones; it wouldn't be out of place to see steampunk brass and chrome next to futuristic white plastic. There are also robots that walk your dog, protect your property, or serve in the military, with varying degrees of self-awareness.

Power sources are of special mention. Faiza as a planet relies heavily on "green" power sources, such as wind, wave, tidal, geothermal, and solar panels. Since these technologies are vastly more efficient and portable than anything Earth has in their early 21st century, and since they were introduced much earlier in Faiza's industrial history, there has not been the problem of converting to these sources from dirtier sources like coal. Nuclear power still remains one of the most efficient sources, however, and has been miniaturized enough where even infantry robots are equipped with cold fusion packs. But nuclear power still carries the disadvantages of nuclear waste.

Valour & Vale: A RWBY Roleplay (Closed)

Color me interested!

Would it be all right to ask questions at this time about character building, or would it be better to wait until the RP post itself is made and to have that discussion in the OOC?

Hunters of Remnant: Bleeding Hearts

The concept of teams comes primarily in the form of the 4-person teams that people are assigned to together during their time training at an Academy. After graduation, it seems the majority of teams disband or go their separate ways, since there aren't any named teams that exist among the adults in the show. Hunters and Huntresses often seem to work almost entirely alone - first episode, Glynda shows up alone rather than as part of a team to deal with Roman's theft; Qrow seems to have been solo for much of his career (though this is due to his Semblance cursing everyone around him, so he has a good reason to work solo as much as he can); Doctor Oobleck would probably have gone solo for his mission later on toward the end of season 2 if the Academy hadn't assigned a team of students for field experience.

That said, there is precedence for graduated Hunters and Huntresses working together. Ozpin's group, for example, isn't a formal "team" yet has grouped together for a common cause. And to a certain extent, all Hunters and Huntresses are united by their duty to protect those unable to protect themselves.

I could see Slater joining a team - he's cooperative and laid-back enough to fit in, and his defensive style lends itself well to teamwork to provide cover for other more offensively-minded teammates.

I dunno if we're going to be able to do the team-naming convention, though. Might if we're creative enough.

The Lodge (A Superhero Kitchensink RP)

I'm surprised at how many people have shown interest in the RP, especially since I only had a kernel of an idea to start with. It's encouraging! And it may lead to me starting another RP or two in the same universe just to accomodate...but, we'll see how this RP actually rolls before I get too far ahead of myself.

Still working on the formatting for the posts to make them look a little nicer - could be up later tonight, could be up tomorrow.

The Lodge (A Superhero Kitchensink RP)

@Weird Tales - Okay, I think I can work with that!

@Jabber - I didn't answer this properly before, but I do aim to have a certain degree of consistency as the RP goes on. This will roll into future lodge-related RPs I might run - it'd be really neat if this went on long enough for me to justify a 20-Years-Later RP with a new set of characters!

@BlessedWrath - While you're right about the techie coverage, I also like the idea of integrating in your character's arrival as a part of the introductory story - even have some ideas about how that could be accomplished. A couple of my classic characters are based entirely around the idea of being teleported from an alternate dimension.

Everyone - I'm posting this just past midnight my time, and I should actually be in bed, but I wanted to update you to let you know that I have the IC post written up for the actual RP, and most of the OOC is written up already. I will likely post it later today if at all possible (partly depends on how long it takes to pretty up the OOC), aiming for the title "The Lodge Outside of Segaso City" to be a little more distinct.

I will require everyone to post their completed CS in the OOC thread for final approval - once approved, you may post your character in the characters tab. Once I have my six approved starting players, and their CSes are posted in the characters tab, I will open the RP for IC posting.
