Vigil

Bump to remind everybody who was involved in the int-check that the OOC is, in fact, open.

And to shamelessly gather just a few more people in the process.

Vigil!

--The New Realna News--

Good morning, New Realna! This is Jackson Tenner, Realna's favorite anchor! This past week has been strangely quiet for our wonderful city, but some events of note have taken place!

The carnival that moved through town is finally gone- Having taken most of our small valuables with them. Kleptomaniacs shouldn't be trusted to run carnivals. Really. And if you lost your dog, that's probably where it went.

The glass works factory met an untimely end just last night, the building, owned and run by a nation-wide glass company, seems to have been the victim of a gas main burst. It's now a pile of rubble- But, thankfully for the company's reputation, every last window of the factory survived the explosion. Walls, ceiling, floor, equipment- All gone. But every window is perfectly fine, according to investigators. So if you need windows, order from Rawson's Glass Work! Apparently, they're nearly indestructible.

That's all for today folks! This is Jackson Tenner signing off- And remember, Realna, stay frosty.

--Character Skeleton--

CS

Name:

Age:

Occupation: (Legal and illegal, if both are applicable. Even the Mafia can have a day job!)

Appearance: (Text and image are both accepted, though if you go with an image, please use a realistic one. Realistic-ish sketches are cool, Anime is preferably avoided.)

Personality and History: (Doesn't -need- to be lengthy. Gods know mine won't be.)

Skills and Gear: (List here what your character is good at. Martial arts? Accurate with Firearms? Strong as a brick shit house? And of course, what do they -always- have on them? Anything from a family heirloom to their favorite weapons. And, if they have a ride, that can go here too. We all like our cars.)

Other: (Anything I missed. Because I'm sure there's plenty. Oh, and check the rules just below.)

--Rules--

1- Have fun, you bloody jackasses. If I catch you not having fun I will do my best to remedy the problem. If that doesn't work, I'm forcibly ramming Rainbows up your ass until you vomit glitter and joy.

2- I am the GM. I am not an asshat- Normally. (I definitely can be though! >:D) But, as GM, my final word is the final word. At least, in the public forum. If there's a problem between players, either sort it out in tells civilly, or bring the problem to me, and I will solve it myself.

3- Put "Vigil" in the other section of your CS to be accepted.

5- You're looking for rule four, aren't you?

4- It's right here.

Vigil!

New Realna. A city plagued by death and disease- The disease of man. Corruption reaching through every home. Government, police, the press. The number of good people is rapidly dropping, the city a home for illegal activities of all kinds- trafficking in people and drugs, violence of all sorts. The police are either in somebody's pocket, or too lazy and entitled to take action. Those few officers still pure, who wanted to protect the city, are too small in number to make a true difference.

The main ruling force of this cesspit of corruption and evil? One of the world's many Mafias. So far, they have been smart- Nobody knows who they are, who's ruling at the top of it all. Russian, Italian, Japanese, English, Irish- Nobody has the slightest clue. But lately, their operations have been seeing... Complications. Supposedly it's only one man, but the higher ups are becoming... Irate. Slowly, a war brews between man and Mafia. The only question in the minds of the people, who recognize this situation from book after book, movie after movie, is...

Who will come out on top?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is, of course, a Mafia RP! The goal is fairly clear- One man against a Mafia. We will fight, we will scheme, we will try to come out on top- And eventually, one side will fall to the power of the other! Mechanics and details, certainly, are a little more complex.

I myself, as GM, will be playing the part of the Mafia boss, no matter what nationality we as a group pick as the Mafia. We will need -one- person, just one, to play as the vigilante. All others will take various rolls within the Mafia- Want to hide bodies for the muscle? Go for it. Want to -be- the muscle? Most certainly! Adviser to the boss, or perhaps their personal guard? Go for it. Every successful Mafia Boss needs good people at their side, or it all falls apart.

So, as a group, we will need to do several things. One, run a small raffle over who wants to be the vigilante. If you -want- the part, then send me a tell with your answer to the following question:

You are being mugged. You are unarmed, and they have a gun. What do you do? Be very specific.

Those who want to be a part of the Mafia, simply throw a Character skeleton up in the OOC here, and await approval. As long as the character shows promise and a personality, I'll -probably- say yes. Probably.

Also, -everybody- who joins the RP, at least until we have these things decided. Cast your vote as to the nationality of the Mafia. You may choose from: Irish, English, Russian, Italian, Japanese, or German. I know there are plenty more, but those are the best choices for this particular city. Don't ask me why. :P

Instructions aside, the following post will be reserved by myself. In that post I will have the rules, the Character Skeleton, and the "New Bulletin". This will be a small, often-updated thing which gives the recent news of New Realna- Pronounced New ree-AHL-nuh, by the way- as a daily news update, keeping time with IC time and events. -This- post will be updated over time with details on the Vigilante and the Mafia- Who has what jobs, who's injured, things of that nature.

Also, -especially if you're the vigilante-, please, I beg of you, don't flake out. I have a busy life, and often only post on Weekends. I understand that others may be the same. But if you don't get at least a post out in a week, I'm going to be concerned, and probably poke you with a tell. Hopefully, more posts can be made than one a week. But it isn't necessary. If you go two weeks with no activity or reply to Tells, then your character -will- meet an uncertain fate of disappearance. You can reclaim them if you ever return, and make up a story as to where they've been.

If you drop out, then your character will meet a much more certain, and likely very bloody and painful, end. By my hand. I like killing characters.

Vigil

You get your cement shoes, plus a free pair of concrete gloves.

I'll be making the OOC now.

VIGIL HAS BEEN BORN. Read the first post -carefully- for instructions on what to do and what will be happening. I'll be updating post #2 over time with important details on everything.

Vigil

Evening bump before I myself go to bed~. Hope to see more interest by morning.

Vigil

Yay~. Three or four more should do it!

Vigil

That makes four people! Silver's trying to get one or two more, I think, but a few more people showing interest here should be enough to justify going through with the OOC! Come come, folks.

Vigil

Despite him apparently losing interest at the tag, he raised a fair point.

We will be having -one- vigilante. Just one. Everybody else will be a member of the mafia. We'll sort out specifics when enough interest is raised for an OOC to be justified.

Vigil

Good t' see you Silver~. And I see you stalking the page, Crimmy. Post your interest.

Vigil

Bump~

And glad to see you're in, Asuu. Hopefully we get more interest to make it happen!
