We Are Our Avatars (Discussion)

Same here. Antisocial characters generally don't work unless you plan to have them come out of their shell, especially in an interaction-based roleplay.

Still, I don't see why you shouldn't be let through, mostly because the worst that can happen is you get no RPs and go design another one instead of disrupting anyone else.

Gonna psych myself up for the Test, back in a moment.

Well, she's not always like that, mostly just when it comes to subjects of her past.

And ye, I plan for her to come out of her shell eventually.

Yay tests!

Well, like I said, I was still fine with letting you have a shot even with that. You seem like a decent enough fellow to me. And thank you for the clarification. Good luck with Spar's test, yo.

Kay here we go smash the rules!

You are SIR STABBY VON KIL-

whoop wrong one

You are MADELINE SMITH, a TEENAGER who is SCARED of something. But that's in the past now.

You leave your source of WORK (most likely PART-TIME because TEENAGER YO) and head over to a BAKERY. Your favorite food happens to be SWEETROLLS, because REASONS involving a TRAGIC ACCIDENT also involving YOUR PARENTS, a DISHWASHER, and a BAG OF YEAST.

Having purchased your SWEETROLL, you head out, heading home, when a THIEF sidles up. He seems like a normal person, right up until he THIEVES the SWEETROLL out of your hands. The nerve!

>Madeline: Yell, "Hey, give that back!" while running after him.

>Madeline: Get ye sweetroll

You SHOUT "Hey, give that back" and embark on a CHASE.

While you may not be the GODDESS OF FITNESS you can certainly KEEP PACE with the THIEF, who wants nothing more than to make away with your SWEETROLL.

This may not end well if you aren't able to do something.

>Madeline: SPRAY the THIEF with handy-dandy can of BUG SPRAY, preferably somewhere around his FACE.

>Madeline: Use PEPPER SPRAY on THIEF

As the THIEF looks back to taunt you, sticking his TONGUE out, he gets a face and mouth full of ICKY BUG SPRAY YEACAJKHKHKHG

The THIEF trips up and falls over, the SWEETROLL falling to the sidewalk as he coughs and hacks in pain because of the BUG SPRAY in his EYES and TONGUE and LUNGS and PLACES IT SHOULDN'T BE.

>Madeline: Pick up the SWEETROLL and lament the fact that's it's pretty much inedible now.

>Also, ponder the fact there was probably a better way to do this.

>Feel sorry for the THIEF, and, against better judgement, call an AMBULANCE.

>Madeline: HAVE MERCY

You TAKE MERCY on the THIEF and call an AMBULANCE for him.

It rides up within a few minutes, the PARAMEDICS loading him onto a STRETCHER and taking him to a nearby POISON CONTROL CENTER.

The SWEETROLL doesn't look that bad - just dust the rocks off it and it should be good.

VICTORY

You passed.

WOOHOO

Welcome to the club.

You can't ever escape.

And yes, Ozzy is in this thread playing Vriska.

Not very often though but probably enough to play Fun With Arachnophobia.

So I have been told that the current location the pose is in is that of Omega, I am interested in rejoining this RP, in light of my sporadic nature I do have a lot more free time nowadays, so a small slither of information and perhaps an opening for Ciaphas Cain and his aide, Jurgen to join would be nice.

Hokay dawg, but just so you know, we got a bit of a change done recently. We're doing pre-testing of characters in the discussion thread for newbies and people who've been away for a real long time. Not because we don't trust yah, but because it makes it easier for us to see just how you intend to play them, even if you're not gonna pop up incredibly often. A'ight?

With that said, mind giving a small character sheet for both Ciaphas and Jurgen? Just names, equipment, relevant abilities, relevant backstory and their personalities, nothing super fancy here.

Okie dokes, character sheet coming right up.

Name: Commissar Ciaphas Cain

Backstory: A commissar of the Imperial Guard, known to be a war hero among the Imperium of Man due to certain actions throughout his career, including dueling an Ork Warboss and winning.

Personality: In his memoirs (which were never released to the Imperial Public) he is famous for being extremely self-deprecating and deadpan in his portrayal of himself and his experiences. He is an extremely modest individual, at heart, the appearance he gives to those around him is nigh-on stoic, to help inspire a charismatic image for guardsmen and women to follow him into battle as well as to hide his sheer terror at many of the hellish things he faces. Unlike many Commissars, he is not an extremely zealous man, he would rarely summarily execute someone like many of his brethren do, for small issues such as not saluting a commanding officer. He is known for being a firm but fair man.

Equipment/powers: For powers, he has none, he is but a mortal man, save for the numerous courses of juvinants, anti-aging drugs and bionics replacing one of his little fingers, he has the body of an extremely fit man who has survived many battles in the 41st millennium. Equipment, he wears a standard blue and red commissariate greatcoat, underneath that he wears a carapace chestplate, an armour designed to help protect the user from being shot to being stabbed or burned, but is still susceptible to many of these issues from man's many enemies in the far future. His weapons are a chainsword, a meter long sword from blade to hilt, instead of a straight blade, has rotating chain teeth; and a bolt pistol, a powerful firearm that fires exploding rounds.

Name: Gunner Fenrik Jurgen

Backstory: A Valhallan artillery gunner, not much is known of his early life but met Cain early in both their careers, Jurgen assisted to commissar repel a Tyrannid attack on their base and later became his personal aide, holding a high amount of authority while maintaining a low rank.

Personality: A phlegmatic and mild-mannered man with a strong sense of duty and loyalty. His loyalties are that to Cain and the Imperium the former more than the latter.

Equipment/Powers: Jurgen is a psychic blank, a weak vortex within the warp and counter-acts many psychic powers in a small radius around him due to his mildly disruptive nature in the warp. Many people find him unnerving and grime and dirt, as well as a deeply unpleasant odour clings to him, he remains unaware of this fact and pays little attention to peoples disdain of him, too socially inept to truly notice. He is extremely resourceful, being able to acquire many otherwise unattainable goods from nearly anywhere in the galaxy. His driving skills are both extremely skillful and reckless. His equipment includes nigh-on godlikely deep pockets and webbing pouches, a standard lasgun comparable to a modern assault rifle and a Meltagun a precise thermal weapon designed to melt tank armour.

Alright, so I think I may finally be able to join back in today and un-bus Zeke. I'm aware some stuff has likely occurred in my absence, and we have some new members (welcome, by the way!), so what all should I be recapped on?

Well we moved to Omega of the Mass Effect universe... I honestly don't think much has happened in the past few days that has been impactful on anything more than an individual level.

Alrighty; can someone remind me exactly which version of the ME universe we went to? It was a no-Shep, post-ME 3 situation if I recall correctly, but I'd like to be sure.

@Zen Looks good to me. Could you wait a moment till Sparty or someone else comes along to give you that test?

@Klaus I think that was it, yeah.

@Rai

'Kay, sounds go-

Wait, Klaus?

katalustalrius is hard to type out, man

Normally this is the part where I would give you the Test, buuuuuuuuuuut I've got like 35 minutes until I have to go back to work. Sorry.

I hope you can wait two and a half hours.

He will be in bed.

I say he just passes.

GUYS GUYS GUYS THE CHAT
