Busy busy busy. So nice to be writing on a deep level again.

Those that have RP'd with me lately, please take a gaze at my Bio. I finally got around to updating it.

Bio



"I burn endlessly, an intextinguishable inferno within the depths of a storm of passion and grace." Septimus Aureous, Captain of the Turian Frigate: Elysium

I've been roleplaying and writing for a little over half my life, and I'm 22. If I come across as cynical, picky, overly willing to write a huge CS, very inquisitive, and even ready to drop an RP out of nowhere, I apologize. I've seen way too many RPs look good only to end up smashing face first into the dirt with almost no explanation to it. I tend to see an impending crash coming from a mile away and will jump ship long before the water reaches my feet.

I enjoy most genres, including Sci-fi, Fantasy, Magic-fantasy, fandom-reworks, modern, sci-fantasy, and most things under the sun. No. I'm not going to partake in highschool or pony or anime roleplays. Outside of those, I tend to take a part in most of what peaks my interest or curiosity.

I am currently involved in an RP surrounding the exploits of the Crimson Dusicyon and her pirate crew.
As well as continuing the adventures of the manic crew of the harpoon in an infinite quest for dat poon tang.

I am currently working on several short stories that I tend to flip back and forth on depending on where I'm leaning.

I'm working on a story involving an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper trapped beneath a hundred kilos of rubble and, with her life mere hours away from being extinguished, she lets her mind wander to her past and her experiences with the dangerous anti-UNSC terrorists. I've taken to call this: Halo ODST: Rebellion.

I am also working on my most deeply thought out world and story: Sonnet of a Damned Cowboy. A story taking place hundreds of years in the future, where the earth is a barren desert due to the earth being cooked alive. The survivors make their own stories as they drive huge caravans of huge mechs called Lancers and deliver supplies from one town to another.

Finally, I am working on a Fallout based story taking place in the frozen north of Canada, old survivors of the Enclave's oppression struggle to survive in the relentless cold. Battle hardened, tired, and cold. They all know that the smallest of mistakes in the frozen wastes will be almost certain death.

Enjoy your day!

@Vash I'm sure we can work out something. I had essentially built him to be part of the reason the Crimson Dusicyon would venture farther out / into the world below; of course, I could rebuild him into a completely different role of your discretion. I'm willing to be flexible with the role as long as I can still try out the concept of a disgruntled guy who doesn't normally want to be with a sky pirate crew.


Nah, he's accepted as is. Grissom and your charrie will get along nicely.
@Penultimate_Pi
So, there is one problem with the CS. We already have a navigator, one whom is a close friend and is entwined into the backstory of the Captain Renault. But, I think things could still work. Co-op navigators could definitely be a thing, but we'll play it slow and see how it goes.

@Warrior in the Shadows

Looking good, accepted. No qualms.

@Aoal



What do I say about what I've seen thus far...um. Okay.

First: This is a cyberpunk pirate RP. I can understand everybody wanting to do swords and such for the sake of pirating but a child with a massive sword is way too far.
Second: Your character is overpowered. Your sword is a "Dual stat sword" that just wouldn't work. Charges that "somehow" work and "Somehow" makes the blade stronger is not acceptable. This is the cynical side of me speaking when I say that I'd like to know how a brand new concept of weaponry works.
Third: This is not a highschool RP. Every character thus far has fit into the world in some way, yours does not.

@Inuyasha@Caits@Tyrant from the West

Further deliberation between other members of the group will be had to further read into your characters.

It's a work in progress, but I was going to have you look over what I've got so far. Will be finishing the rest later.

Biography:
Born to a simple cyber-merchant family, Nico has been around technology for about as long as he's been alive. Tinkering with different mechanisims and gizmos, Nicolas grew up to be a well established engineer at his fathers shop, crafting all manner of mechanical devices for his father's patrons. However, growing up in 'boonies' was never enough for the boy, taking the first chance he had to join the military in an attempt to escape. It was there that he showed decent physical prowess, as well as a knack for improvising and espionage. It was for this reason he was recruited into the special-ops contingent, code name 'Veil'.
Veil was responsible for anything that had to be done behind enemy lines and required a significant need for discretion. Often times the members of this squad were sent to assassinate key officers and officals, or damage/destroy relay stations or comm towers. Nico found a true calling there as his mechanical expertise assisted in creating makeshift explosives and rigging of hardware. This lifestyle would continue for years to come, until Nico took a stray laser round to his leg and was discharged from service.
In longing for the thrills of his now past profession, Nico took to crafting his own armor that would accommodate for lack of agility since the wound to his leg. After completion of what was to later be known as the 'Specter' armor, Nicolas took a job as a free lance agent. Taking jobs at any opportunity for the chance to feel that 'rush' again, the man has found himself in the midst of new company aboard this air-ship.
Extra:


I don't like to operate in PMs in regards to characters and such and would rather discuss him here in one message.

Your character will be discussed with the chosen members as well.

After discussing the RP with two other members, I have decided to put a hard limit on how many characters will be joining the crew: Ten. It hurts to say but some of you may not join the voyage. This is being done so that the RP will be easier to manage and not become a mosh pit of posts.
Approvals, denials, and suggestions for improvement inbound in 1-2 hours.

Pms will be going out to certain people as well.
@Tyrant from the West

Raiden. Yes. Thank you.

You don't have to change it, I've just never been comfortable with "famous" characters in an rp. I subconsciously make them a target and they tend to carry a certain badassery with their appearance.

Edit: apologies for not being responsive. I'm at work for the next six hours and I have to sneak around to get a good signal and check on this thread.
I'm not hugely into having raidin on the squad, but he seems to be coming together well. I'll wait until the bio is complete to make a full response.
@Penultimate_Pi

@Penultimate_Pi Mate, don't write because people wrote more, write because you love writing.


Quote of the day, right here.

Take your time and write something you love, mate. No rush I'd to be had here.
@Voltus_Ventus

Renault would have approached him personally if that makes things a little easier.
@Tyrant from the West

Yeah, go ahead and post a character sheet whenever you're ready.

@Mr_pink

Absolutely! The general is a welcome addition to the crew.

@Caits

Take your time, mate. No rush.

And yes, bows and arrows are allowed, just keep in mind that you're going up against automatic weaponry, snipers, personal shields, and deadly fast winds. Really hard to shoot at enemies on another ship in shiptoship combat with a bow.

@NuttsnBolts

Pretty good! I like her! Go ahead and put her in the characters bin.

@Voltus_Ventus

You too, volt! You and dorkface have a home in the character sheet now. Plus, grufman Is probably going to be a thing on the ship now.
@NuttsnBolts@Caits@Larfleeze@DemonTongue@Penultimate_Pi@Crow@Ether@Hawlin@Dirty Dan@Mr_pink@Voltus_Ventus

See you all port side, recruits!

EDIT: Please also be aware that I have ascended the primary pad to a much better and more user friendly Etherpad

Forgot to tag everybody's name. Sorry!
