While the overall setting concept hasn't changed, there are a few differences.
Relationships between characters will be allowed, however there's going to be a few ground rules about those. First off, when players choose to pursue such, alter me as to the involved parties, and I'll make a separate thread for just for those interactions. Second, those threads will be used for the purposes of a series of interactions that will have to occur before the characters start getting into the sleeping together part of a relationship. You will have to ask me before you attempt that step. I am adding this restriction to try to encourage character development in the RP. Also, for the purposes of keeping such things monitored: The characters will have to agree to meet somewhere in one of the main threads, then shift to the "private" thread.
NOTE: This "Relationship Rule" will only apply for (eventually) physical relationships, or if the player wishes to improve their character's background in game. Basic friendships can just be handled in the main threads.
Also, I don't want this to be dominated by large chunks of just two players constantly posting back and forth. It will be allowed under some circumstances, but you'll have to get permission first. Only the "private" threads are exempt from this, for obvious reasons. EDIT: Should a player decide to create an extended background for their character, PM it to me, and I'll add it to the Information thread.
Obviously, there is a sci-fi element to this. However, I will be trying to downplay it.
Now that all of that is out of the way, here's the character information:
___________________________________________
Name:
Gender: (Male or Female)
Species: (Human or Drow)
Physical Description:
Personality Description: (Need at least a starting description. This will have an affect on your character's 'Persona'.)
Other Background Notes: (Optional.)
__________________________________________
Name: Anthony Cross
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Physical Description: Roughly 6'3" and about 185 lbs. Shorter cut dark brown hair, brown eyes. Light complexion. Prefers to wear tan colors, particularly a tan long-sleeved shirt, brown jeans, riding-style boots, and has a brown "gunslinger" style overcoat. Sometimes has a black eyepatch covering his left eye, even though he's been seen without it, and both eyes work normally. Appears at times to have a vertical scar running across that eye, as well. Known to have several long cut scars, as well as a handful of puncture scars.
Personality Description: Anthony is often described as easy-going and has a willingness to talk to new people. He's also known to have skill with several musical instruments, including guitars and his own voice. Oddly enough, he seems to get somewhat edgy when rumors are mentioned.
Other Background Notes: Has apparently done some manner of work either with or for Shiraishi before. Anthony is about 25 years of age.
NPC Sheet
Name: Koike Shiraishi
Notes: Is believed to be in his 50s. Spends most of his time in Avarras.
The players will, of course, be trying to get to the bottom of what's going on. For those who were in the first attempt, you'll be able to edit your characters if you wish, or just make a new one. Any new players, obviously, will be making new characters.Somewhere in the future, humanity began exploring space. They encountered a sentient race known as the Drow, and that first contact was rocky, due to the interference of certain power-hungry politicians and some of the military commanders on the human side.
The war averted, however, and in the years since, relations with the Drow have reached the point of founding a joint colony on a habitable planet. The colony became known as Pathos, with the largest city on the planet named Orchrios. After some time, a small estate was purchased just outside of the city, by an aging human known as Kioke Shiraishi. The estate was eventually called Avarras. Soon, an apparent acquaintance of Shiraishi's moved to Orchrios, a young would-be musician named Anthony Cross.
However, trouble had begun on Pathos, even before the arrival of Shiraishi. Rumors of a mysterious entity, one that would grant any wish, began circulating. According to rumor, if one performed what was called the "Joker Charm", done by calling your own number, they could summon the entity. After a string of mysterious changes, and disappearances, more trouble arose. A strange cult-like group calling itself "The Masquerade" began appearing in rumors.
These people, eerily referring to themselves as the "Slaver Lords", claimed to serve the mysterious entity...
