So uh here's the situation....

The Gremlins are making an organized push on the Clockworks, from bases in Tier Three. T3 has been conquered, and they own half of Tier Two. Spiral HQ has sent an elite group of knights to sabotage various targets and assasinate various gremlin leaders. This IS an invite-only RP. I know, I'm a hypocrite.

So, the following are invited:

Creeperlucario
Mawashimono
Thinslayer
Feline-Grenadier
Robo-Drilldigger
Sonosuke
Myself
Darkwatck
Colray
Psychnade
Valorai
Edolas
Hexslash
Sandwich-Potato

The idea sounds pretty cool, I'd like to see where this ends up, with the assortment of players you chose. :P

Also, I'm glad that it seems you've moved past "you know what" seeing as you invited Mawa, hopefully your RP will last longer than her's did, though!

Can't wait to see how this starts, Gee Ehl, Mal. lol :)

Don't be killing any innocents, or compromising the secrecy of the Order. Also make sure hide in hay bales and sit on benches :P

I'm not sure about this, Malk. The forumers in the treasure vault aren't very numerous, and we already have an RP going. Will the thread have enough feedback despite other people's projects? I wish you luck with your RP, however.

Um...

I don't know why you invited me. I am pretty bad compared to everyone else, proof is the fact I failed at the basic part on my RP, know the lore. So... just take me off the list or give it to someone else who is better like Edolas or Sandwich (Where did he go?) or even Psychnade.

I can see from the list you have some new RPer's and some more experienced ones but, I think Creeper is still in the lonely state. Perhaps, Thin should wait for Creeper to recover from the lonely state before she accepts it...

I see in the OP that I have been invited... Not sure how this will work out. I've always lost track of the stories when it come to RPs, but I'll try my best. Besides, if I can't keep up, you can always kill my character.

My App

Name: Emma "The Spectre" Balker
Age: About 18-19
Bio: As an orphan, she learned to take care of herself on the streets. She had an older brother, but he passed away when he was KIA serving the Spiral Order. Her brother haunts her sometimes to this day. She did what she needed to survive without her brother to support her, and by 17 was convicted of numerous crimes. She is guilty of theft, forgery, seduction, and assault. However, she never, ever found the courage to kill some one, and now the Order is turning to her in a time of need to kill Gremlins. The question is, can she do it?
Personality: Cynical, clever, and a very volatile person in general. She is liable to steal your stuff and stray from the plan and do stuff her own way. This usually turns for good, but other times it can turn for the worse. She can spot flaws in plans quickly, and is a quick thinker, liar and manipulator.

Right away I'm going to assume that there will be a surplus of male characters, so I'll be using my 'Blue' application.

Name: Blue
Age: 19
Bio: A loner who is the last of her family. Her parents survived the crash, but due to immense injuries they were killed. She never went towards large crowds or social cliques In fear that she would have to mourn more deaths. She often roamed Haven, until she was drafted into the Order. She was at a tier 3 base when the gremlins attacked, and was emotionally scarred.
Personality: A very solitary girl. She is very polite, and is a yes-woman. She always agrees with people in hopes that they will shut up faster. Over time, she grows more depressed and lonely, even though she shuts herself out. She is a survivor, and will do anything to keep herself alive. She looks at logic to weigh her choices.

Hope I ain't too late.

I would happily participate in this rp.

Name: Beck
Age: 17
Bio: Beck is the son of two very rich citizens of the Spiral Order. Due to this, he had the option to rise through the ranks twice as fast as a normal knight. Beck refused to do this, partly because he thought it was cheap, but mostly because it probably would attract attention. A slightly rebellious kid, Beck would sneak out during nighttime and practice moving silently and unseen. After a few years, his parents found out and stopped him from doing this- or at least tried to, because by this time Beck had virtually mastered the art of silent, unseen movement. After achieving Vanguard, Beck was offered a high rank in command, again due to his parentage. He refused, he didn't want special treatment because his family had bought him it. Instead he went into training as sort of an assassin, honing his skills as a marksmen.
Personality: Beck is a quiet sort of person, more accustomed to being by himself. Due to his experience in the rich upper class of the Order, he was grown a healthy dislike for the spoiled, and has a soft spot for those who are poor. Isn't the best in any sort of up-close fight, preferring to stay in the shadows and take a shot or two. Actually, Beck isn't generally fond of anything up-close and personal, speaking out is not a strong suite at all. After getting mugged one day when he was very young, Beck had been mentally preparing himself for any sort of situation. Mostly for a way to get out and away.

Just... just leaving... an app... here...

Name: Aisha
Age: 15
Bio: Aisha grew up in an orphanage and was often shoved out of the way because she was too quiet. When she joined the spiral order, they immediately kicked her out because she was very bad in battle and was useless. Aisha cried home to the orphanage when a Tortodrone attacked the Spiral Base and the knights didn't know how to damage it.
Aisha started aiming at the Tortodrone's crystals but missed badly, nearly hitting a knight. The other knights started to aim for the crystals and eventually killed it. However, the spiral order never took Aisha back in because she rarely talked and was useless in the field...
Personality: Quiet, lonely, never has the courage to talk outright, shy, often gets embarrassed and gets depressed easily.

Good job Creeperlucario!

That's a great character Creeper, she has such large potential, and she's so unique, not using all the points! It's amazing to see how much you've progressed since you started Roleplaying! :D

Also, @Malk, when are you planning to begin the RP?

Hm...

@Atgatg : Elaboration on how Blue was scarred and so forth could help.

@Creeper : Very unique character, but the name Aisha (from what we both know) is from another character in the game Elsword. I'd rather that you get into the habit of not re-using names from other media, but instead creating new character borne purely out of your mind. You don't have to change this one in particular, but sometimes using only the appearance or the capabilities from an already-existing character allows some freedom from the pre-set mold.

I don't think Creeper was naming Aisha after Aisha from Elsword. As far as I can tell, their personalities are quite different from eachother. That, and their age difference.

Hm...

I might join much later, mid-game.

And with Creeper, I was going in-context with his past apps, since they all appeared to be referenced to Elsword in some manner. It's good that he's learning how to get off the habit of using pre-made characters (his habit before this was self-insertion into the story), though I've yet to see him create a 100% original character. I'm a bit excited that he's gone this far in several months :D

@Feline

The "Elsword" based ones that Creeper did was because she watched someone else play them. As for the guardian one, Creeper got 2 off from Deadly *Cough* Sorry, Betrayus. She got the other 2 guardians when she was watching me. She didn't even know the playable characters except the main character. For apps that was used, Creeper must have used the wiki for the game.

Regardless of how s/he got his / her resources, the apps Creeper made then were nowhere original as they are now. Just want to say to Creeper that s/he's doing a good job with creating original characters at this point. Keep it up :D

((Well, of course you can use their images as a reference for appearances, but that's as far as it goes for similarity.))

@ Feline-Grenadier It's not so nice to have some obscure piece of fantasy/science fiction dragged up and being accused of plagiarizing it eh?

Creeper being picked on...

I really wonder why she is being picked on. I have seen her apps when she starting and I know what your thinking "How can you know, you're new." Well... I never saw Creeper ever use an original app judging what Feline said. Every app she used either has a name based off another game or the appearance. Heh, everyone has done that at least once, using non original pictures.

I typed a big response and lost it

What Creeperlucario is doing is actually much the same thing I always do. See, most of the world's character tropes are already known and taken, so it's nearly impossible to create a truly unique character. The next best thing is to create characters based off those we know and appreciate.

Unique characters =/= good roleplayer. You might not believe it, but very few of my characters have unique origins:
*Gwenivere used to be a carbon copy of Galadriel in all but name.
*Evaria is basically Saber from Fate/Stay Night.
*The Finder is a (major) modification of Infested Kerrigan from StarCraft.
*Astran Valderis is a blend of Cad Bane from Star Wars and bada$$ detective characters from comics (that I never read).

And I'm not at all a new roleplayer.

Name: Mech
Age: 15
Bio: Being a Defender Elite has it's ups and downs. For one, Mech has much respect going towards him, and he has a lot of privileges exclusive to the higher-ups. Despite this, he has a tendency to run into trouble in the Clockworks. A lot. Because of this, he lost the love of his life to the Apocrean Cult, most of the squads he goes with unexpectedly disappear, and his own brother has become mentally unstable after a certain run-in with Devilites.
Personality: Mech is a very complicated guy. He can be very laid back at times, sometimes even cracking a few jokes. Yet other times Mech can be serious, especially during missions. He talks in a passive aggressive manner and tends to be blunt with the facts. He normally has issues with others, and thus has trust issues. Most of all, he has a caring, softer side to him, rarely showing this unless when protecting others.

Brawling Brethren of Booze & Brotherhood.

Name: Gollan Ironfist

Age: 67

Bio: Gollan was never fond of using any gear in his long time of service within the order. He had always fancied himself more of a Brawler, using the very hands that he had been given to accomplish the feats he would have to face in his travels. So from the day he was 1st recruited, to the days of his Champion rank, against all advice and persistances, Gollan trained in the skill of disabling his opponents with his fists alone. This didn't change upon arrival on cradle.

However faced with the dangers on cradle, Gollan had to adapt to a heavier style of fighting. He started by finding the heaviest armour, with the bulkiest of armour. Deciding on the Plate mail, he began to train with it on all the while, the constant conditioning toning and adjusting his muscles and mental shape into how to use the suit most effectively. Feron approached him one day during his training, upon dismantling enough training bots to fill the chasm, and invited him to join an elite knight group to combat the rising Gremlin threat.

The rest, as they say, is history.

Personality: Has a jolly attitude toward everything, not seeing much point to bear any hate toward anything in his old age. Likes to get drunk whenever he isn't on a mission. Tries to support everyone as much as he can. Thinks of himself as a Guardian of sorts.
