This is a mixed Human and anthro world.
Technology is "classic cyberpunk".
Style and appearance is Blade Runner-styled noir with touches of Detroit, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Camden, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and some Batman Beyond Gotham City.
Plot: The year is 2037, great leaps in computer science and biology have allowed the once impossible: the seamless fusion of flesh and machine. However, the utopia envisioned of such a world is not to be. Greed, crime, corruption and apathy have plagued the great urban landscapes that are the hallmark of this new world.
Despite this, many of the inhabitants try their best to live in this world. But there are some opposed to this new world.
They call themselves "The Purifiers". A shadowy anti-technology group that seeks to make all augments and implants completely illegal. While most of their actions have been legal, if hateful, protests, some have taken this message further to heart and have engaged in vandalism, sabotage or even outright murder.
-
Oooh, heck yes. This...Chimera is in~!
-
Sounds pretty cool. Could I get in on this?
-
Yeah, you're both invited. I'll see if we can get more players.
-
Just say the word and I'll get on a chara
-
Just say the word and I'll get on a chara
Know anyone who might be interested?
I've asked LB&T and I may ask Nick and metadude.
Or I'll start it up tomorrow and see who comes.
By the way, I'm not very fond of overly complex character sheets; I prefer to have the characters develop and grow throughout the course of the RP.
-
Works for me!
Definitely ask Nick.
-
Pterano might be interested. About how many people does an RP usually need?
-
After a lot of thought, I decided let's go ahead with it. I wasn't going to RP any more, but I've already started to miss it since Darwin's Soldiers ended.
-
i'll join. is there any magic involved in this one.
-
No magic. Just technology.
-
alright.. i'll come up with a character soon..
-
In an RP like this, is an overall story planned, or do we just post and let it develop?
-
Framework of a story but most of the plot and story is done in the posts.
-
Ok. One last question, can we use more than one character? I've got the idea for two characters in my head, but I might still just end up using one. Sorry for asking so many questions...
-
Generally, the rule in RPs is that you can do as many as you feel you can handle, so that's your call, I think.
-
Yeah, I think Starfall was handling like half a dozen characters in our last RP, so if you can handle it you can do as many as you like.
-
It was only 7~. Besides, you handled nearly as much yourself!
-
Alright, then. Thanks for helping a noobie out, guys :p
-
It was only 7~. Besides, you handled nearly as much yourself!
Whats funny is that Shelton was the only one I actually made. But then people kept quitting the RP, leaving their characters behind, and nobody else felt like picking them up so by the end I controlled Hans, Werner, Stern, Aydin, ROSS, Sharon, Masters, Crota, Aimee, Shakila, Nixx and Zyanya! (Though not all at the same time, I wrote the first 5 out of the RP myself because I was getting overwhelmed.)
Let's get this show on the road! Making characters at the very least.
-
my characters name is Marita Jones. A 25 year old Great Dane, shes gifted with computers, but unfortunately doesn't have many friends, as the roleplay goes along, that will change..
-
I'll bite the bullet and use both characters. If it's too hard, I'll kill one of them off somehow.
Character 1: Marcus Hayton. A 38 year old, 7 foot tall doberman, Marcus is a member of 'The Purifiers' who hates implant-augmented beings, and thinks they are a disease who should be eliminated. Fast, powerful and deadly with guns.
Character 2: Axel Whent. A 21 year old rat, gifted with computers and other electricals. After sustaining injuries in a terrible car accident 4 years ago, Axel's arms and eyes were replaced by cybernetic technology, and his face remains horribly scarred. His implanted eyes give him a unique view into the workings of any electrical equipment, furthering his abilities and allowing him to hack with ease. Extremely shy, only opens up to close friends.
-
Name: Soren Almaya
Age: 34
Species: Human
Augmentations: Homemade powered exoskeleton that grants him super strength as well as a degree of protection from gunfire and other hazards.
Appearance: Medium build. Brown eyes, black hair, tan skin, almost always dresses casually. Wears a set of glasses that have augmented reality capabilities as well as ability to zoom and see in infrared.
Biography: A cyberneticist by day, but an avid tinkerer by night. He makes his living repairing and modifying external augmentations like artificial limbs. Ironically, despite being so intimately familiar with augments, he refuses to get one himself as he is afraid of surgery.
He had heard of "The Purifiers" before, but he dismissed them as obnoxious cranks. That all changed when his workshop was looted and everything in it destroyed. He immediately knew who was guilty thanks to the cracked gear emblem scrawled on the wall.
--------
Name: Aaron Geasbrecht
Age: 41
Species: German Shepherd
Augmentations: None
Appearance: A tall and very solidly built German Shepherd. He has brown eyes and tan fur. Almost always dresses in flannel and blue jeans.
Biography: A former construction worker who had his job replaced by an augmented person. Despite protests, he was let go. It was this moment that he felt resentment towards the augmented, feeling that they were taking jobs from honest, hardworking unaugmented beings. What finally drove him over the edge was that his own son had announced that he was going for augmentation surgery. Fuming, he severed all ties with him. Later that night, he read an article about a anti-augmentation protest by "The Purifiers". This eventually leads him into the ranks of this organization.
-
Name: Adrian Kibagami
Age: 22
Species: Red Fox
Augmentations: Biomechanical Left Arm, Right eye covered by Optical Augment, Neural Augmentations
Appearance: Dark Red (almost black) fur over most of his body. White accents over his hands and chest, as well as the tip of his tail. Slim build, with a shock of vibrant red hair that covers his right eye.
Biography: Adrian worked as a detective for a time, until he lost an arm and part of his eye in an incident that also cost innocent people their lives. For a time, he fell into despair and regret, but now has begun to act as a vigilante, starting to act to defuse situations, many of which involve the Purifiers...
Notes: Eye augment is capable of seeing across multiple spectrums, including IR and Electromagnetic.
Neural Augmentations are able to enhance his reflexes, enabling him to easily dodge or counter nearly anything, though it strains him.
Carries a Hyper-Vibrational sword in a case that resembles an instrument case. Sword design is akin to a massive rapier.
Skilled Free-Runner.

Name: Lily (though she doesn't know this)
Species: Human
Age : mid-twenties
Gender: Female
Faction: Fugitive
Occupation: Unknown
Equipment: Tattered gray dress, hiking boots, nothing else
Description: Dark-skinned, with straight black hair and brown eyes.
Personality: At the moment, she is incredibly paranoid and confused. Just trying to survive to the next day.
Backstory: Lily woke up in a field, having no memory of who she is or how she got there. Several close encounters quickly taught her that the police are currently undergoing a massive manhunt for her, and her only goal at the moment is to escape the country. But she doesn't even know where she is or why they want her.
-------------------------
Name: Emilena Echo
Species: Anthro Fox
Age : 21, biologically 7 (see below)
Gender: Female
Faction: Purifiers
Occupation: Law Enforcement/Paralegal
Weapons: Heirloom Katana, basic police equipment (handcuffs, tazer, nightstick, flashlight, pepper spray). Katana is the only lethal weapon she carries.
Description: Lena has snow-White fur, with black markings on her arms and tail. Long Red hair, tied in a loose ponytail with a black ribbon. Wears a standard issue police uniform with woven titanium fibers for protection.
Personality: Extremely uptight, nicknamed "Analena" by her fellow officers, she has seemingly no sense of humor and a well-known repulsion for sexuality.
Brief History: Emilena was an orphan, the fifth who volunteered for a controversial "growth acceleration" process, designed to cut down on homeless children by rapidly aging them to adulthood. Her personality is common for those who underwent the procedure, though her asexuality is not. She is currently on probation after inexplicably burning down the orphanage she once lived in, leaving her past records lost to time.
-
All right! Let's get ready to roll!
-
i'm ready to go. start us off serris..
-
Standing by!
-
RP is up and running: http://gangoffive.net/index.php?showtopic=12689 (http://gangoffive.net/index.php?showtopic=12689)
-
So my goal with Emilena is to get her badge revoked by pissing off her superiors, but she chooses to go rogue and wage a one-woman war against Augments, starting with Mr. Almaya. Without police contacts, this will force her to trust someone she never would normally...
-
well you're doing a good job with that lBT, the disdain and self-righteousness just drips from the posts when shes talking..
-
Just as a heads up, I'm on the trip home from France today, so I might not be able to post as much in the rp during today.
-
an idea to start building the team of oddballs
echo might considered grabbing marita and forcing her to help her nab soren in order to save her job.
-
I was thinking Axel might see Lily stumbling out of the woods and decide to help her. Maybe in the morning he might bring her to Soren for help.
echo might considered grabbing marita and forcing her to help her nab soren in order to save her job.
Since Axel would probably be helping Soren, there could be a situation where our two hackers are going against each other?
-
Both ideas work.
I'll have Lily stumble into town on my next post.
-
This should be fun~
-
looking forward to it..
-
Cool. This RP's looking really interesting now :D
-
Ooh, this is gonna be good!
-
You may count me in.
As always, I'll use Hania Enapay. A 19 year old male Jaguar.
I may take on the role of another character depending on how the RP plays out.
-
Welcome in, Belmont :)
-
LBT and i have discussed via oms the circumstances of marita being drawn into echos group. lets just say, its not willing participation.
-
Sounds exciting. And since Marita showed Echo up in front of Soren's house, I can imagine why she might bear a grudge against her :p
-
Echo is a rather vindictive character. I'm not even sure I want to give her a happy ending, she's even more anal than I expected.
-
I think she deserves a happy ending. Just a tough middle. She's got a reason, avd room to grow.
-
We'll see what happens. I killed off Shelton after playing him for five years, I can do it again C:<
-
You monster, LBT! That being said, I wouldn't mind seeing Echo getting taken down a peg or two :p
I have a question for Serris, is Aaron already a member of the Purifiers? If he is, maybe him and Marcus could join up at some point in the future?
-
well you havent played her nearly as long..
-
marita will grow as a character as well.. shes young..
-
Bushwacked, an idea to get the ball rolling on uncovering Lily's secret; on her hiking boots is a little white barcode sticker, implying they had been recently purchased when.....whatever happened. This will allow a hacker to trace where Lily is from (and what her name is.)
-
Oh, good idea. Damn, I just posted. Maybe one of us could notice it when you put the boots back on?
EDIT: Actually, I just edited the last post so Axel noticed it. After reacting to the fact that there's a manhunt on for Lily, Axel could bring up the sticker and one of us could come to the realization of what you just said?
-
Fair enough, but something might happen to distract them before then :p
-
I have to figure out a way to get Soren and Aaron back into the picture.
Right now, I'm planning for Soren to find out who destroyed his home lab.
As for Aaron, I need to get him involved with the Purifiers in some way.
And the strip club, I'll introduce an Augment Black Mamba.
-
I like the idea of Axel bringing Lily to Soren, to get his help. The police investigation against him will get a lot more complicated once he actually has something to hide (harboring a fugitive.)
-
So awesome!
-
so yeah, get them to approach marita with a godfather-esque 'offer you cant refuse' deal. help them, or her 'dirty secret' gets exposed.
-
I was thinking something like a police search in the morning could force Axel and Lily to run from the apartment, and hide out in Soren's place
For Aaron, maybe Marcus could help him out after he gets in a fight with some augments, and then recruit him into the Purifiers? Or if he's already with them it could be a way for them to start going after Adrian together (or come up with some other nefarious goal :DD )
-
I have to ask another RP noob question, what's a tie skip LBT?
-
a time skip, is where we move ahead a certain amount of time, like to the next morning, for example. i'm guessing this one will not be that long, a couple hours..
-
Oh dear, I feel like a fool. Probably should have seen that's what he meant :oops Thanks Nick
-
Agreed. Though I was wondering what a "tie skip" was, too.
:DD :DD
-
Hey, I thought it might be a term known to you veterans :lol Yeah, I think a few hours skip to the early morning would be ok, so Adrian and Echo have had time to infiltrate The Electric Sheep, and can move on to make their move on Marita.
Also, just want to say I'm really enjoying this RP, thanks for letting me join guys :)
-
You've been a great addition, bushwacked!
Also, yes. Typos are fun.
-
By the way, would Emelena notice the fugative in Electric Sheep (Sanjay Bhat)?
I imagine he'd get roped into the mess somehow too.
-
No doubt. At the moment, not sure how, as she has bigger fish to fry. Unless she knows of some way to manipulate him into helping her, then I'd need more information on the character.
-
Hmn, if Marcus is heading to the Electric Sheep too, maybe there could be a confrontation, and Sanjay helps them fight against him?
-
No doubt. At the moment, not sure how, as she has bigger fish to fry. Unless she knows of some way to manipulate him into helping her, then I'd need more information on the character.
Since going AWOL from surgery to remove his implants is a serious felony, punishable by surgical removal of said implants and a minimum 10 year jail sentence (on top of the 25 year minimum jail sentence for possessing illegal implants), she could blackmail him by threatening to turn him into the Palladia Police Department if he doesn't help her.
Sanjay is an Augment security guard for a cybernetics corporation in Palladia, whixh bans civilian possession of weaponized augmentations. He consequently got a permit to have his artificial venom tanks installed ó provided he fill them only with anesthetics at a dose provided by the company. Well, after he nearly got killed by some punks who were unexpectedly resistant to the anesthetic, he filled them with black market Taipan venom. He lost his job as well as his license when he was found out (by killing an industrial spy who had broken into the building) and he is forced to have his augments removed.
Not wanting to lose his expensive implants, he fled the city of Palladion the day before his surgery.
And yes, Sanjay could end up at a fight at the Electric Sheep.
-
m,arita can be used for her computer skills as well by blackmail. a combo of an old girl-girl sex tape and illegal drug usage, with that carrying a hefty fine. the drug usage that is, folks dont care about the pornos in this day and age. still for obvious reasons marita doesnt want her dirty laundry aired.
-
nice job on the enterence LBT, if a bit direct and off-putting in Marita's view.. she wants an explanation from emilena before she'll help her..
-
Should Axel and Lily find each other again while they're escaping, or should they be split up? Not too sure how we'd get the three characters together if Lily's lost.
-
i would say that they'd find each other again..
-
They should find each other quickly. Lily doesn't have anything to do while being lost, and Axel has all the directions.
I'll have her jump to the opposing roof, and disturb someody so there's noise for Axel to catch.
-
Subtlety, thy name is Emilena. XP
-
its the equivalent of holding a sword over ones head and saying ' will you cooperate? you really only have one option in that case.
-
Emilena does prefer the direct approach when solving problems.
-
"Direct" is an understatement.
-
What I want to know is, was she wearing a metallic bra with tassels all this time? :lol
-
Some info on neurocotics, because Emilena is gonna start demanding questions from Sanjay soon:
As mentioned, they are an artificial hybrid drug, hormone, and synthetic cell complex. There are many different types, and each one is designed to do some sort of permanent, irreparable personality or phisiological damage, usually through physical manipulation of brain or body chemistry. They are among the most expensive illegal drugs on the planet, and if not made with the highest quality standards have a good chance of causing retardation, cessation of brain activity, or death.
Normally, an individual is supposed to fall asleep when the patch does it work, but Emilena is just badass.
"Luckily" for her, her patch was made by a wealthy foreign cartel, and is only causing its intended effect: physical enlarging of the hypothalamus and overactive testosterone production, which are both causing crippling libido. It's mainly used by unscrupulous husbands on their unsuspecting wives, and carries the same urban legend connotations as "waking up in a bathtub full of ice with your kidney missing" does today.
-
Oooh boy. This could get interesting...
-
definitely interesting. what should i have marita do outside while you guys duke it out in the club?
-
Pretty soon, Emilena's gonna find herself unconscious in a dumpster. Marita can locate her then if you want.
-
sure thing...sounds interesting..
-
Aww, what happened to Adrian coming to her rescue?
-
Were you and bushwacked gonna actually finish your battle at some point? It looked like it was gonna be one of those never-ending duels that happens when two PCs get in a fight.
I don't have an awful lot for her to do down there, so if more PCs are gonna meet up with her I can revise that. Just that everybody flew the coop so I thought I'd conk her after she stole some files and move the RP forward beyond the strip joint.
-
That's why I started the fire, I was thinking it could spread and start bringing the ceiling down, stuff like that, separating Marcus and Adrian and letting him go down and help Emilena.
-
^
This guy is a genius. I was gonna say have Emilena find something that implicates the Purifiers in the "terror attacks" that they blame augments for.
-
Soren's gonna find out that the fire in his workshop wasn't accidental.
-
Its your turn Serris.
(Well technically its nick's turn but his characters are isolated so they aren't affecting anyone's plot progression.)
-
I replied. Unfortunately, the front of the strip club has collapsed and the girls were just able to get out of the car before it was flattened by debris. so they're moving down the alley right now..
-
I put Emilena's findings in code so that it'll require Marita to translate them.
-
Ooh, nice!
-
Sounds good, LBT.
Serris, I was thinking maybe Marcus and Aaron could be told to work together by one of the higher ups in 'The Purifiers' as a way to re-introduce him?
-
i had marita abnd rose rescue the drunk marcus abaondoned. they've banadaged his wound and are currently helping him to his feet.
-
Sounds good, LBT.
Serris, I was thinking maybe Marcus and Aaron could be told to work together by one of the higher ups in 'The Purifiers' as a way to re-introduce him?
Aaron Geasbrecht isn't a member of the Purifiers. He's a rabid anti-Augment though.
-
Aaron Geasbrecht isn't a member of the Purifiers. He's a rabid anti-Augment though.
Ah, my mistake. Maybe there's a way Marcus could notice him and bring him into the group?
And Nick, should I keep controlling the drunk or is he yours now? Not too sure what to do since he isn't one of my mains, but I'm fine either way.
-
you can control him until we reach the hospital and he gets treated and detoxed. how does that sound.
-
Sure, sounds good. Just wanted to avoid a situation where we were both waiting for the other to play him :p
-
You're up, Serris. Agent Wolf is offering him a substantial reward and government aid in return for information on Lily's location.
-
Hmm. I'm going to need some character flaws for Soren.
He's definitely not pure good. As I showed, he's perfectly willing to lie ó and he'll do it again.
He'll probably be a bit greedy and vengeful. Maybe later on, the group will break into a cybernetics factory for an intel gathering operation ó remember, the megacorps can be benign or nasty. So they can serve as antagonists too.
-----------
And I'll probably introduce a new character ó imported from my cyberpunk MLP:FiM RP but modified a bit.
For now, I'll probably call her Anne "Nitro" Phoe. She's a Shetland Pony "oil farmer" (works at a vertical farm that produces genetically engineered algae that produce biosynthesized crude oil). She has a metal "horn" sticking out from her forehead like a unicorn. That horn is an antenna that allows her to use an artificial form of telepathy via radio waves. It's also durable and sharp enough that she is perfectly capable of goring someone with it.
Unfortunately, she is a drug addict ó due to the extensive abuse of assorted nootropics during her college years ó with the rather problematic habit of stealing augments, parts and other mechanical devices and hocking them to fuel her addiction.
I'll probably have her meet Soren when she tries to hock an external augment she removed from a dead guy.
-
And a posthumous character and some more worldbuilding:
Into the Black (supplementary info)
Name: Doctor Dorothea "Dolly" Wilmut
Species: Sheep
Bio: Dolly was one of the pioneers for gene therapy. Her work with liposomes, retroviruses and gene targeting at the Watson-Crick Institute paved the way for safe and effective gene therapy. Going to the next step of her research, she moved into gene enhancements and cosmetics ó ranging from simple things like unnatural eye, hair or skin color to things such as enhanced strength and stamina.
Unfortunately, her latest work attracted numerous opponents. Some of whom sent her death threats and vandalized her lab. Despite this, she never backed down ó indeed, she became even more outspoken, sometimesbordering on polemic. Unfortunately, her "rock star" attitude earned her even more detractors, some of whom were themselves scientists, claiming that she was acting in an unprofessional and inappropriate manner.
On the plus side, she also had many supporters.
Sadly, her outspoken and aggressive nature and "rock star" attitude cost her life one dreary morning. During a rally advocating enhancement, an anti-enhancement zealot shot her. The shooter was quickly apprehended but the crowd was so enraged they killed the shooter before the police could arrive. By the time the police arrived, both Dolly and her assassin had died from their injuries.
The aftermath was quite brutal. After a week of mourning, bursts of violence broke out all across the nation as Dolly's supporters attacked anti-enhancement activists, even killing a few.
In the present time, gene enhancements have given way mostly to cybernetics due to their higher liklihood of side effects ó and the fact that cybernetics allows for enhancements not possible by nature, such as radio wave based telepathy. Most gene enhancements now are cosmetic in nature but there are a few who favor the genetic modifications.
-
Nice bit of back story. Dorothea's inspired by Dolly the cloned sheep I presume :D
-
Yes, Doctor Wilmut is explicitly based on the real-life Dolly.
-
nice work serris. so what should i have my group of 4 do? head over to where emilena and adrian are?
-
Only if they want a rather bad surprise...
-
ah i see.. then i'll have them meet up with them later..
-
You should take the drunk to the hospital. I was thinking we could meet everybody up there for the next Act.
Emilena just stole a bunch of files on the families of known Augments. Perhaps this hospital could operate mainly on cybernetic issues, and so Adrian and Emilena investigate because many of the individuals on the hit list were treated there; many for injuries reminiscent of attempted murders.
The clothing store Lily bought the boots from could be next door. It could our first opportunity to maybe unite the two plot threads somehow.
-
GENIUS!
That and maybe have Marita start digging on Adrian and Emilena. Doesn't do well to not know who you're working with, right?
-
she knows a bit about emilena, plus i'll have longstreet call emilena reminding her she just has 2 days left to make the arrest or she gets fired
-
she knows a bit about emilena, plus i'll have longstreet call emilena reminding her she just has 2 days left to make the arrest or she gets fired
Emilena's phone was left in the strip club with her clothes. Her only possession at the moment is her heirloom katana.
-
ah, that complicates things.. well he'll get in touch with her somehow..
-
^Or they could take this as an easy chance to write off one of their biggest liabilities. No contact from Emilena+Fire= Oh, she was KIA.
-
Hmm. I'll have Soren find something odd about the recent repairs he did when he enters the data on a job he gets; the damage to the augments looks deliberate and he's seeing people who shouldn't have had their external augments damaged so badly ó people like bankers, computer techs, etc.
As for Anne "Nitro" Phoe...I'm also at a loss how to introduce her. I planned to have her go rooting through the remains of Soren's workshop ó she's so high that she doesn't car that broad daylight is not a good time to go looting. But I'm open to other ideas.
I'm at a loss as to how to get Sanjay Bhat into the picture; he's currently in a crappy truck stop taking a piss behind some bushes.
As for Aaron, I'm trying to see how I can get him to be a Purifier.
Side note, Anne and Sanjay are "public domain" characters.
-
Anne I could see showing up at the hospital after *another* injury, while Sanjay...hmm...perhaps the snake grows a conscience and shows back up instead of running?
-
Sanjay can also be dropped from the roleplay if you don't want to play him any more, Serris.
Alternately, he gets kidnapped right about now, and later in the roleplay as things heat up, the protagonists discover him as a prisoner of the shadowy group trying to kill/capture all of them.
-
Hmm. A kidnapping for him sounds perfect!
-
Having the two groups meeting sounds awesome. I wonder how Emilena would react to seeing Soren...
For re-introducing Aaron, I'll probably have Marcus start to bleed out from the cut in his arm (which is much deeper than he thought) while he's running from the police around the club. Maybe Aaron could help him out in some way, and somehow bring up his attitude towards augmented people?
-
I've decided to step up and take a second character!
Name: Yoshihiro Kojuuro. ((Note: Name follows Japanese order, so Kojuuro is his first name))
Age: 40
Species: Hokkaido Wolf
Gender: Male
Augmentations: Biological alterations, enhancing speed and strength to higher levels than average beings. Armor suit further increases his strength and defensive capability.
Appearance: Grey fur, with significant fading from age, with bright blue eyes. Favors a military-style outfit with significant armor plating, including a large number of straps and extra equipment pockets. Wears a black Kevlar coat over the armor. Black tactical mask on his face, covering it in it's entirety, save for his eyes.
Biography: Kojuuro made a living as a mercenary, taking any contract that would pay until he was assigned to a mercenary firm that was working abroad, in an "anti-terrorist" operation. Assigned to shepherd a unit of conscripted child soldiers, his entire squad save for one boy were wiped out by a set of Strain. After returning home, he abandoned the mercenary lifestyle, drifting aimlessly until joining the Purifiers for a brief time. However, when he was asked to participate in a terror attack on an augment facility, he left the group, and began staunchly opposing them.
Notes: Carries an
SL-8 (http://www.eurooptic.com/images/products/HK-SL8-6-.223-Rifle-227553.jpg) Sniper rifle, a High-Frequency broadsword, and dual pistols.
-
Sounds like a cool character, Starfall :) I wonder if the boy who survived grew up to be someone we've already met...
-
Possibly~...
-
Did we leave any way for Marita to contact Adrian and Emilena? If not, she has no way of decoding the files Emilena found. I mentioned that Emilena recognized the files' code, so if need be, she can just decrypt them. They need to be read to point the pair in the direction of the hospital for tomorrow.
-
I don't think we did... but they have to get the drunk there, and may go to see him again...
-
I meant Emilena and Adrian. I'll just have them read it in the morning.
The night should be pretty close to wrapping up. Let's see if we can get everyone asleep/at their destination in a few more posts, and start the next day.
-
Roger that!
-
Whoops!
I accidentally set the time at 4 AM or so for the RP.
Soren's washing up and getting ready to start taking clients or do some hobby work.
Sanjay is going to get kidnapped.
Anne is going to end up in the hospital...because she passed out in a dimly lit parking lot and someone landed a hoverbike on her.
Aaron is currently asleep.
-
If Marita has a mobile, Adrian could use his german Alfred, who told him how to cure Emilena, to retrieve her number for them. Or Emilena could somehow use her police contacts to find it out.
-
So, once nick's characters reach the hospital, and everyone is more or less in the right place, are we gonna do a "tie skip" even though some characters are awake? If they just have routine stuff like Soren to do, we could still jump forward until they've finished that stuff and more plot can happen to them with the others.
-
Yeah, you can't go wrong with a good old tie skip.
As Starfall just introduced his new character, we could jump it forwards to them reaching the hospital once the introductions are made, and then jump forwards in time?
-
Should we jump forwards by about 3 hours now? Unless any of you guys still have something you want to do before, of course.
-
Think I'm set~!
-
A time skip is fine..
-
A little development in the RP gave me this idea:
How about they break into Pelvanida Cybernetics to ask the lab tech a few questions?
Don't worry, there will be plenty more break-ins.
-
Yeah, I figured there was a reason you specified the company's name :) Sounds good to me.
-
Are we going to try to tie the two teams together? At the moment, Nick,start all and I are playing one RP and me,serris and bushwacked are playing the other.
That's one reason I mentioned both of my characters are interested in visiting the clothing store; thought that might provide an opportunity for the two teams to learn they're both enemies of the Purifiers. And after the hospital, Emilena's going to have a risky but powerful opportunity to gain some Intel.
-
Could still happen. Maybe once they've joined up during the hospital part, Emilena and Adrian could realise there's a reason for them to infiltrate Pelvinida as well? Or Emilena could act as though she's helping Soren just so she can get closer to him as part of her investigation into him?
Ooh, and I didn't realise Em was talking about the same shop Lily was. I'm slow :oops
-
I have a way to bring them together and develop Anne's personality a bit more.
She'll bring some equipment that she stole from the hospital to Soren to try and get cash.
He declines and decides to return it (because theft of medical equipment is a serious crime) to the hospital. While Soren's there, I'm assuming Emelina and Lily will go to the clothing store.
Actually, not a break-in, Soren and Axel will confront the lab tech during his lunch break. And maybe some dirty laundry about Pelvanida Cybernetics will come out.
-
I'm back guys. broadsterret has sent emlilena a reminder that her deadline is approaching. marie will become a full-fledged member of the group, and will become a close confidant of rose and marita.
-
Sounds good. Will Anne turn up as Axel and Lily are about to leave for the clothes shop, which would give Soren a reason to go at the same time?
And welcome back, Nick :)
-
Yeah.
It also reveal some of Soren's dirty laundry.
-
Anyone mind if I tie skip the hospital and wake Emilena back up?
Also Serris, looks like you accidentally truncated your last post.
-
I've got no problem with a tie skip.

Name: Anne "Nitro" Phoe.
Age: 43
Species: Shetland Pony
Augmentations (Cybernetic): Implant that allows her to recieve and transmit radio waves as an artificial form of telepathy. The antenna for the implant is disguised as a cosmetic "unicorn horn" implant (surprisingly popular with young Equines). This horn is both sharp enough and firmly implanted enough that she can gore her opponents with it.
Augmentions (Genetic): She carries some artificial genes that allow her to produce much more red blood cells than average and without ill effect so she resists the effects of low oxygen environments and has higher endurance than normal.
Bio: She is an "oil farmer" (a vertical farm that grows genetically engineered algae that produce biosynthesized crude oil). She is very intelligent but few would know that because outside of work, she is almost always high on something. In addition, she has racked up numerous hospital bills due to her rampant drug abuse and subsequent injuries and/or overdoses.
Her drug dependency came about during her college and grad school years. Her perfectionist attitude meant that nothing less than the highest grade was acceptable. In addition, she often took numerous difficult classes (usually going over the permitted credits limit). As a result of this, to make perfect grades, she began using drugs of all sorts ó ranging from nootropics to classic stimulants. No one ever found out but she paid a heavy price ó she became a full blown drug addict. Since her job doesn't pay enough to fuel her drug habit, she has resorted to various legal and illegal ways to make enough creds to buy drugs ó everything from synthesizing and selling drugs, to assorted odd jobs. Currently, her alternative income now consists of stealing augments, parts and other electronic devices and hocking them to fuel her addiction.
-
well broadstreet is royally pissed at emilena, and my other characters are leaving the hospital with rigguns.
-
One could hardly blame him.
Are Adrian and Marcus going to fight, or go their separate ways unmet? Just wondering when Emilena and Adrian should meet up.
-
I thought it could be interesting if Marcus helped Adrian and Emilena escape by keeping the security teams off them, since the Purifiers still want to follow them. Since I doubt Adrian would willingly accept any help from him, I guess it would work better if they don't know Marcus is there (at least not at first) - but I'm okay with however you guys want to play it.
-
Ooh, that's a cool idea! Shows that Marcus can think tactically and operates a few steps ahead of the given situation.
-

-
So how should our characters meet up? should i have my characters go to Maries place and run into emilena and adrian at some point, or what?
-
Maybe your characters could see them running away from the hospital, maybe ducking into an alleyway or something like that, and decide to follow them?
I'm not too sure how Adrian, Emilena, Marita and the others could meet up with Lily, Soren and Axel if they're still in the clothing store. Would it make sense if they holed up in the clothing store so the police lose their trail?
-
My original goal was that Emilena would go there to get a new change of clothes since she's wearing a shredded hospital gown right now. Adrian could probably still take her there, what do you think Starfall?
-

Edit: I'm sorry to be double posting so often recently guys.....its this new phone, I'm not quite used to it. On my old phone, double clicking the post button meant it posted faster, so now its force of habit. I've got to unlearn that.
(The phones autocorrect is also why I occasionally use the complete wrong word)
-
The perils of new phones :p
How would Nick's character's end up meeting the rest of us as well? It would be a bit of a coincidence if they just happened to go to the clothes shop as well. Unless, after they leave the hospital, they see Emilena talking with Soren outside the shop?
-
They could see Adrian and Emilena, and follow them. Since they were allied at the Electric Sheep, and never officially split up, just lost track of each other.
-
sure, that works, i'll have my group stop at maries huses to grab some things and change of clothes, then head t o the clothing store.
-
Due to StarFall's hiatus, we're assuming that the two decided to take shelter at the clothing store. Mainly because I don't want Emilena out of commission until StarFall returns.
I'm editing my post to make this happen.
-
Does one of us take control of Starfall's character until he returns?
-
Adrian is the only character still involved with the main cast, and I had him get hit with a disabling EMP pulse. That way, the pulse can just wear off whenever he gets back.
-
no, he'll be in the ether until he returns.
-
Okay, that makes sense.
-
How's that for Emilena/Adrian? Not sure how we're getting Nick's characters back in, but at least we've tied one loose thread. Maybe Nick's characters can have a valid reason to go to Pelvanida Cybernetics? Do any of Nick's characters have a currently unstated job?
-
If I recall, one of his characters works with computers. Maybe should could be an intern or student there?
You know, on the job training.
-
Marita is skilled with computers, sio yeah that could work. i'm guessing since it will be awhile before they meet up again, the girls could spend the night at marie's. emilena could call maritas phone, or maritas could look Emilenas up online in the public records. either way, so they can touch base on whats going on both ends.
-
I guess we haven't united two storylines. This is just gonna remain three separate RPs forever, isnt it.
-
i'll have maritacall emilena on our cell. that information is available on the police website
at least for another day or so, before emilena gets fired.
-
Emilena doesn't have a phone. Call Adrian.
-
alright i'll call adrian, then.
-
I guess we haven't united two storylines. This is just gonna remain three separate RPs forever, isnt it.
Soren's gonna return when he realizes Lily is missing.
I can see him being forced to cooperate with Lily once the Purifiers destroy his house as a final warning. He'll manage to escape with only his powered exoskeleton and gun.
-
Maybe to bring all 3 groups together, Soren could begrudgingly give Em and Adrian a lift out of the city, and while they're driving away it emerges that he needs to infiltrate the lab. Em could realise that Marita interns there (if I've understood that right), and offers to recruit her? Kind of like a "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" type deal.
EDIT: And if you want Soren's house to be destroyed, it could link back to the tracker in Em - the purifiers could launch an attack on his house, while they're hiding out there, after thinking they've discovered who her and Adrian are "working with".

I like this idea! I'm forseeing a battle at his house that eventually results in his house going up in flames.
I'm going to reintroduce Aaron...somehow.
Oh, a little fact about the Purifiers ó genetically enhanced beings are safe from them. Mainly because the enchancements are invisible. But the Purifers profess to hate them as much as they hate Augments. Of course, that doesn't stop the group from having "Augenes" (Augmented Genomes) in their membership rolls...
And there may be some groups who only want genetic enhancements, not cybernetic and vice versa.
-
Warren Joseph: Overworked, overstressed, short-tempered Chief of the Palladia Police Department, and currently a candidate for Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service that oversees all urban regions of the greater city area. The rise in Purifier hostility and increasing tensions between them and the enhanced have caused the Chief to orient police focus to handling issues concerning the aforementioned.
Age: 40
Species: Human
Occupation: Law Enforcement; Chief of Police

Pretty good.
Just one thing: Does he have any augments or anything?
-
Welcome to the RP, Ant :wave
Serris, is there any way I could help bring Aaron into the Purifiers? Maybe that small guy who turned up at Soren's door could be at the same bar he's in and could notice him?
-

That sounds good.
-
should we have the group run into my characters the next day, also should i have brownstreet officially fire emilena?
-
I was thinking a good idea could be to get Marita to help Soren and the others get into the Augment lab, if that's where he'll be heading next. Maybe Emilena could offer Soren Marita's help as an attempt to gain his trust? That way your characters can be joined to everyone else a little sooner. What do you guys think?
P.S RIP Ant's character.
-
He was a good man. He will be missed. Great chief of police.
On that note, Emilena's gonna defend herself by saying she's in position to get Almaya arrested.
-
alright, just have her contact broadstreet with that info, and we'll go from there.
-
The first battle scene will be at Soren's house. It turns out that the graffiti that the Purifier scrawled on his sidewalk basically let everyone know where his house is.
They plan to burn down his house, intentionally trip his lot's perimeter sensors and ambush and kidnap or kill him when he returns to investigate.
Soren and the others survive but Soren loses his house. His house's fire extinguishing system keeps the building from being totally destroyed but it's essentially unlivable. He'll go back and manage to salvage his exoskeleton but he loses pretty much everything else.
After crashing in a nasty-ass hotel, he'll go and have a word with Mr. Altyn of Pelvanida Cybernetics.
Does this sound okay to everyone?
-
sounds like a plan. looking forward to it
-
Sounds good, and to answer your question, yeah we should probably wait for Starfall and bushwacked.
-
Sounds like a good idea. Would you want the small man to get Aaron to take part in the attack, maybe as part of his 'initiation'?
-

Yeah but Aaron will be a bit hesitant at first,
The man will have to prod him a bit.
----------
Also, I'd like to get the RP moving again.
-
The man will have to prod him a bit.
Sure, prepare to see some prodding. One thing, is the attack on Soren's house going to start as soon as he arrives? If that's the case, we could have it as though the meeting between the Man and Aaron took place a few hours before, maybe somehow find a way to mention it? Of course, if the attack happens a little later then that doesn't matter.
And yeah, I was wondering why the RP slowed down. I guess the others must be busy.

They tripped the security systems in his house and they're waiting for Soren to arrive so they can capture -- or kill him.
-
should i just have my characters hang out for the evening? and meet up with them in the morning?
-

Maybe they can meet at a motel or something because Soren's house has been destroyed.
-
sure thats fine. i'll have some interactive time between my characters before the meetup.
-
Just reminding Starfall that's it's his turn to post :)
-
Okay, Pterano might be joining us as he expressed a desire to do so.
Now how do y'all want to integrate him into the RP?
-
Yeah, that was a question I had myself. Thanks for remembering me! :)
-
Welcome to the RP Pterano :D
I guess a starting point is, would you want to be one of the good guys or the bad guys (the Purifiers?)
-
Probably one of the good guys for now, heheh.
-
I'm just throwing an idea out here, but at this point in the story, Soren, Axel and all the others will be in a pretty heavily populated area, with no transportation and (I guess) a bunch of police on the way because of all the gunfire, and obviously they don't want to be caught. So maybe your character could be passing by, and we kind of hijack you and get you to drive us away? Once that happens, Emilena doesn't seem like the type of person to let your character go, what with you being a witness and all that, but the others wouldn't want to kill you.
Like I said, it's just an idea, might not be a good one :p
-
I actually like the sound of that idea in all honesty. :yes It could work. :yes
-
I think it'd be good to possibly have your character start out as perhaps a heroic bystander, too. Maybe have them walking by and end up saving part of the group?
-
Yeah, that could work too. One of the ideas I was kicking around with was that he was a former Purifier, but dropped them, and wants out now.
-
Sounds good - maybe we could combine all these ideas :)
-
That is a possibility, yes. :yes
-
Allright, I've talked to some of you about this, but I want one more scene tonight before "tomorrow" in-universe, where everyone goes to Pelvanida.
When Emilena learns about the Purifier chip in here, she comes up with the idea to visit a remote location in the hopes of getting ambushed by a Purifier, whom the team can ambush and capture. I was thinking an old abandoned steamworks factory on the outskirts of town.
-

I like it but instead of a steamworks, why not an old robotics factory or power plant?
It fits better with the atmosphere.
-
i agree with serris, this will also allow my characters to reunite with the others,.
-
Yeah, I really like this idea. Maybe it could also be a chance for Aaron to be more involved - maybe he gets contacted and recruited into Team 'Kidnap Emilena' (formed of Marcus, Pterano's character and Aaron) as part of his initiation?

Sounds good. Any sort of abandoned factory.
Glad people like the idea :D Something important will be happening to both Lily and Emilena's storylines...
-
thats cool, and how should i have my group meet up with the others.
-
I guess Emilena could contact Marita and tell her to meet them at the factory for more backup during her plan?
-

Starfall and I have told you two a dozen times, Emilena lost her phone :p I'm about getting ready to retcon that just so you guys stop bringing it up.
-
i know they cant contact her, but they can contact marita.
-
And Emilena does have Adrian's phone. She did grab it when he went down for a sec, remember?
-
Yeah. I think Marita even managed to get through to Adrian on his phone a little earlier when they were driving away from the hospital.
-
Serris, could you edit your post so the thugs take the wounded woman with them? Otherwise it defeats the purpose of the heroes capturing Pterano's character later.
-
OK! So now that we're close to the point of me joining, I think I've FINALLY hammered out the background details of my character. It's amazing what revisiting one of your favorite books can do! So yeah, I'm just narrowing down species, but I'm closing in on that as well.
-
nice pterano. i'll have my group get called by adrian so they can head in the direction of the others..
-
If we're able to hijack a car, our characters could come by and pick up your group on the way to the factory.
-
sure, and what happened to the drunk guy the girls got to the hospital?
-
Oh, I guess he's still at the hospital, waiting for the girls and Kojuuro so he can have that drink :p Did you want him brought back in?
-
yes, just have him be with the girls and searching through maries cupboards looking for a drink.
-
Allright, if Adrian has their number he can call them. For the moment getting Emilena another cell phone would be rather pointless, due to soon-to-be-occurring events.
-
alright. have adrian call them and they'll respod and head to whee the others are so they can be picked up.
-
yes, just have him be with the girls and searching through maries cupboards looking for a drink.
Yep, no problem. I don't think poor Mr Gittsun's life expectancy is going to be too long though... :p
-
well we could have him go back to his home and stay there.
-
I could... options, options... :smile
-
Anyways, I'm planning for Soren to head to Pelvanida Cybernetics ó probably in a hijacked/stolen car.
As for Mr. Gittsun, well, why not have him be the victim of one of Lanthae's many criminals?
And Anne's gonna make another reappearance...trying to break into the car that Soren himsel stole.
-
he already was the victim, when he got shot in the leg and the girls had to take him to the hospital.
-
We still need to find a way to bring Nick's characters into things. Is it too late for Adrian to call them for more backup in the ambush? We could always act like they have a car and live close to the factory to get them there quicker.
-

We've got something happening right after the ambush that would inspire Adrian (or nearby allies) to call somebody for medical help.
-
Soren, Axel and Anne are heading to the factory. But they'll arrive too late to do anything.
Though it would be interesting to have Anne and someone there recognize her ó maybe Emilena because Anne's got a criminal record for petty theft a mile long.
-
I don't Emilena's going to be in any position to identify anyone...maybe Kojurro.
-
Emilena seems to spend a lot of time like that, doesn't she?
-
As Rudyard Shelton before her, I enjoy torturing my characters almost too much. And it's not nearly over for her or Lily.
-
As a person, I'm concerned. As someone who reads your posts, I'm excited.
-
As someone who loves your characters, I worry immensely. As a reader, I enjoy it. As a person... I don't know.
-
Anyone mind a few "pooled/public domain" characters?
Basically, anyone can control them as long as continuity is maintained.
-
Yeah, I'm good with that.
-
So how about these four archetypes:
1.) Corporate security guard/soldier/mercenary
2.) Black marketeer
3.) Illegal street racer
4.) Mercenary hacker
Feel free to come up with more character types.
-
So when are they going to pick up my characters? as right now theres not much going on with them
-
Adrian still has Marita's number, he could call them help, and they could arrive at the factory at the same time as Axel and Soren?
-
When Kojurro and Lily find Adrian, calling for medical help sounds like a very obvious thing for them to do.
-
Soren and company should show up about now. We're going to need a lot of eyes if somebody's going to locate Adrian.
-
Finding him will be the easy part. Getting him moved and treated...not so much.
-
they'll have to treat him there, using what supplies they have..
-
I've got this big post reintroducing Emilena and I can't post it because my computer refuses to accept wi fi >:C
What are the heroes going to do tomorrow? Do we have plans? One thing I was thinking is that Lily might be interested in breaking into her old home and interrogating her husband for information, but I haven't fully fleshed the idea to acceptable levels. Who has character plans already?
Also Pterano could you resend me the PM with the business card information I sent you? I forgot to save a copy when I wrote it.
-
Well, that's a pain, isn't it? Hope that fixes itself soon!
-
Spoiler: The purifiers heal Emilena's wounds by placing her in an accelerated growth pod and aging her several months in one night. This caused her wounds to heal at the same accelerated rate, with the downside that she's going to eventually die several months sooner.
If y'all want, tomorrow the heroes can work on smuggling Adrian into somewhere with an accelerated growth pod to heal him this way, or maybe there can be a broken down pod at the factory and they have to repair it. Unless Starfall has a plan for how Adrian will be healed.
-
Sorry about your computer's wifi :p
I don't really have any concrete plans at the moment, maybe a few ideas, but depending on where the story goes they may or may not work out. I'm happy to go along with any plans you guys have.
For Adrian, he did speak to that German guy when Emilena was hurt after the club - maybe he could come back into it somehow? Marita and the others could come and stabilise him, then after we somehow find out about Mr. German, we could deliver Adrian to him to be patched up?
-
^
I'm amazed that you remember him! He'll actually be arriving at the factory, and doing some field-implant surgery on Adrian. Almost all internal, and with next to no actual improvement, but enough to save Adrian's life. The only major change will be in the right arm
-
I completely forgot about that character.
Do you plan for Adrian to be a cripple for the rest of the roleplay, Starfall, or is he going to become functional enough somehow?
-
He'll regain nearly-full functionality. Some pain of course, but eventually he'll recover fully and even beyond his old limits~
-
I'm amazed that you remember him!
Don't worry, this is the only time my memory will amaze you, it's normally quite shockingly bad :p
I'm guessing that once he recovers, Adrian will have to persuade Nick's characters to help find Emilena, since they aren't exactly the best of friends?
-
sounds like a plan, since marita and the others have arrived. the reason it took so long was that marie forgot where she placed her keys..
-
I was going to have Anne introduce everyone to one of her black market contacts, who then brings them to a back alley doctor so Adrian can get medical care but this latest post seems to have made that impossible.
-
The group would still need somewhere to hide out once Adrian's alright again - you could change it slightly so that Anne's dodgy contact finds them a safe house instead of a doctor?
-
^agreed
-
Got it.
Also, what should be have Pterano's character do once everyone gets out heads back into the city?
Also, I'll make a full profile for the black marketeer they meet.
-
If Pterano didn't have any plans for him, we could have it so the group doesn't trust him to leave in case he reports back to the Purifiers, so they keep him as kind of a hostage? That could also maybe bring down Tony's mob family down on them, because they think the group has kidnapped Tony? Just ideas, I guess we'll see if Pterano has a plan.
-
we should have the implant happen soon with Adrian, i'd think..
-
I think we should wait for Pterano.
-
Yeah, we shouldn't move to far ahead without him.
-
Thanks for waiting. I had to catch up in the RP after being away, and now that I am, I did have an idea, but I think I'll scrap it now, due to other scenarios popping up currently in the RP that work a bit better than what I had. So yeah, I don't really have any direct plans. Been kind of struggling with bringing myself back into the fold, but I'll try my best from here on out.
-
That's okay, if you ever get stuck on something to post I'm sure we'd be able to help you out :)
-
Okay, what are everyone's plans for the next scenes?
Eventually, I want to showcase Anne's talent at breaking and entering.
-
i was thinking that the group try to find emilena...
-
I thought that once the transport Kojuuro ordered arrives, we'd head to Tony's place, where his dad may or may not help us, and then from there we could work on trying to find Emilena.

Posty toasty

Some new characters (public domain)!
Name: Ruozheng "Rory" Zhao
Age: 31
Species: Human
Augmentations (Cybernetic): Class 3 augments for both arms. Right arm contains built-in 5.56 mm automatic rifle, left arm contains short vibroblade capable of shearing through steel and concrete. Both arms possess strength and flexibility in excess of Human baseline. Skeleton is not reinforced so arms cannot be used to full capacity in lifting or striking.
Augmentions (Genetic): None
Bio: His parents were "Mountain Masters" (Dragon Head, i.e. crime boss) of the Bak Long (White Dragon) Triadsóa powerful Chinese criminal syndicate in the city of Lanthae. His parents wanted him to have a normal life ó and get a college education he could further use to help the White Dragon Triads. He never had much of a taste for school and spent his youth cutting class, fighting, commmitting petty crimes and doing ó or dealing ó drugs. He is eventually expelled from school after attacking another student. Drifting between menial labor jobs, he is eventually sentenced to prison for fatally shooting someone in a street fight. Even though he is guilty, his parents bribe the judge to rule it a justified self-defense shooting.
He is released and his parents eventually decided to formally induct him into the White Dragon Triads as a 49er (rank-and-file member). He got augmented after a group of Augment street thugs beat him into a coma in the process of robbing him as he felt it would be necessary to ensure his safety.
He rises through the ranks and eventually becomes a "Red Pole" (enforcer) where he specializes in black marketeering ó specifically in drugs and counterfeit electronics.
-----------
Name: Doctor Tsing "Thomas" Jiang
Age: 44
Species: Human
Augmentations (cybernetic): total ocular replacements that grant him zoom-in capability and ability to see outside normal Human visual range (UV and infrared). Both hands are class 1 augments with fingers capable of changing size and becoming magnetized at will. Processors in the hands eliminate hand tremors.
Augmentations (genetic): More efficient detoxification pathways in liver and kidneys, resulting in heightened resistance to drugs and poisons.
Bio: Born to a wealthy Chinese immigrant family who had a stake in Tsun Wan Industrial Electronics ó a Chinese electronics megacorporation, he had the best education available. He graduated high school and college with the highest honors possible. He eventually earned his Ph.D in neuroscience with his thesis on brain-machine interface for remotely controlling vehicles. He then went to medical school where he earned his Cy.d (Doctor of Cybernetics, licensing him to implant, remove and repair cybernetics).
However, he operated in Palladia and was not authorized to implant class 3 augments. One day, his greed and curiosity overtook him and he agreed to implant a class 3 arm for three million creds. As was the law, he told the augmentee to come back after twenty-four hours and then schedule an appointment.
The next day, he was shocked to find several cops waiting for him at his office. It turns out he had gotten caught by a sting operation to find and shut down illegal implanters of augments. Facing several years in jail, he forfeits his entire operation and license to the Palladia PD in exchange for a jail sentence.
He then flees to Lanthae where he opens a back alley augmentation clinic. Despite it being called a "back alley clinic", it is just as clean and professional as a legit augmentation clinic. However, unlike a legit clinic, he doesn't care if the augmentee is licensed to possess an augment before he implants it ó or for that matter, if the augmentee legitimately obtained the augment.

Can I join?
Yes but I ask that you read and understand the plot as well as have a character profile ready (following the style of the profiles listed here).
In addition, I am obligated to warn you that this RP contains numerous scenes of objectionable material, including intense violence, scenes of torture, sexual situations, uncensored profanity, drug use and dystopian setting.

Name: Patrick Anderson
Age: 25

-
I accept your profile.
I assume he has no genetic augmentations either?
Welcome to the RP.
-
OK, My guy needs some one to interact with.
-
But he went to his house and fell asleep?
-
I meant soon.
-
Added a small detail to my last post.
Note that Emilena and Snajay are not in the sewers; the wolf Purifier lied because he's not actually a Purifier.
-
I can have a Purifier do something to Rocky's character.
-
sounds good
-
Oops, sorry for not saying this earlier but welcome to the RP Rocky.
-
so wait is my OC dead?
-
so wait is my OC dead?
-
No, he isn't dead, the Purifiers just did that to send a warning to him.
-
He could be dead if you like. That's within your prerogative.
-
no, I just wanted to be sure it wasn't Patrick.
-
no, I just wanted to be sure it wasn't Patrick.
-
Emilena and Sanjay are gonna need some way to get back in contact with the others.
I suppose once they're clear of the Purifiers they can commandeer a car. It can even be Patrick's car if he feels like driving soon after waking up
-
Since Lupis had some contact with Tony (what with the whole blank business card), maybe he could somehow meet with Emilena and Sanjay as they escape and tell them to seek out his family home, assuming the group would take cover there? I'm not sure, Lupis and Tony are the only link I can think of.
-
World building issue: meat and leather.
I established that leather was sealskin or sharkskin.
Now like all my anthro RPs, meat is seafood. Now should I allow the meats we eat in real life under the justification that it's in-vitro meat or will the "in-universe eww factor" make no-one want it?

This world accepts orphan cloning. I think it would add to the extent that humanity has lost a lot of its humanity over the years. So I vote yes.
-
Okay, in-vitro meat it is...of all species!
-
I like that idea too, suits the tone of the rest of the RP.
-
If I maybe so bold, I got two Possible solutions.
One, meat substitutes.
Two, eating non anthro animals.
I don't mean to distract from the Rp, but I oppose chopping up anthro's and humans for food. If a story becomes too dark and Morbid, most people won't want to read it, I'm worried that the same might happen here.
-
Well, if it's in-vitro that means they wouldn't actually be killing and chopping up actual people, just mass producing in the labs the parts that are to be eaten.
Also, this RP's gone to some fairly dark places already, so if people have been reading this I don't think it would trouble them too much :p
-
People read roleplays they aren't participating in?
Serris, if you want to take Emilena to see your new doctor, that's okay only if you start posting more frequently. Like, once a day minimum. Otherwise I think they could commandeer a car and head to Tony's house, I'm gonna try to work with Lupus tipping them off. Unless your second character Serris might be interested in discovering Lily's whereabouts through hacking or something. She's probably giving off the highest psionic reading in the city right now, but no modern technology would know how to scan for that.
-
I took a third choice, they carjacked someone and ordered them to drive to Stephenson Memorial Hospital.
--------
As for the in-vitro meat, it's illegal but that doesn't mean people don't do it. It's just available only on the black market.
-
What's notable about this hospital? Is it the Purifier one?
Is it really safe for them to visit a hospital?
-

It's the same one where Emilena got her implants but Sanjay doesn't know that. Besides, he's not seeking medical treatment so it's unlikely his illegal implants will be discovered.
-
Huh. Well, this should get interesting. No way they're getting out of that without trouble.
-
marita has reached the room adrian is in.. how long will the group be staying at the dons?
-
I foresee them leaving in the morning, why?
-
Hope you saved what it says on the business card, Pterano, because I forgot where i wrote it down :/
-
Yes, I still have it. :)
-
Since I PMed this info to Pterano, I thought I should also post it here, some background info on Denny North:
Denny North lives in a very ordinary suburban home with his wife Lily and two daughters. He works as a lawyer, and his wife stayed home and cared for the kids. He's been indicted twice for domestic abuse but got off both times, and his house has never been searched. Since Lily disappeared he has used the publicity to start an online fund drive where sympathizers can send the family money to put towards finding her; this money does not appear to have been used in any way yet. Both daughters are homeschooled.
-
He sounds like a bad, bad man.
-
Yeah, not the nicest of sorts doesn't sound like.
-
Yeah, I was planning this subarc where Lily, Axel and maybe Kojurro go to her house in an attempt to learn more about her, but all this stuff has happened and I don't think it'd make much sense at this point. That's where Denny's background comes from.
They were gonna find this torture dungeon in the basement, where it appeared he did things to Lily and the two daughters. So Lily tries to take her children away, but they're scared of her because of her appearance and refuse to leave Denny. It would have been good stuff.
-
Bushwacked proposed this in a PM to me. I'd like all of y'alls opinion on it:
QUOTE
Hey Serris, I just had an idea that could give the Purifiers a clearer goal in the RP - what if they were developing some kind of pulse, that if sent out could permanently fry all augmentation machinery and disable it? It's not a perfect idea, but it might give the group a main goal to work towards preventing, when they discover the Purifier's plans.
Speaking of which, what about Rocky's character? Do we kill him off or someone controls him or does he fade into the background?
-
It was just an idea, I won't be offended if you guys think it's terrible :p
And I vote death!
-
The guy didn't even leave his house. I say write him off as a world-building event and never mention him again, like that random doctor whose car got bombed by Marcus at the beginning.
And the pulse idea would help the heroes have something to shoot for. No arguments here.
-
i like the pulse idea. lets do it.
-
I'll have the Purifiers kill him off.
-
Could people please keep posting? Nothing but me and bushwacked for over 48 hours.
-
Your math is off; I posted 31 hours ago with two posts within quick succession. I really can't do anything until Serris posts, but I know he's back in school, so he might be busy. A good way to avoid static situations is to come up with a way to have players respond to more than just one thing if the RP has become a bit stagnant. Like you could have Emelina inquire as to who else would be going, since I'm pretty sure she'd notice Soren isn't in the room, and that Tony had to step out. That way at least, I'd have something else to respond to instead of just waiting on Serris's response.
-
My mistake. I should have listed you in the previous post; you're on vacation and you've still been awesome.
Emi's been quiet because she knows that she's in thin ice and wants time to gague the other's responses to what she's already said. She risks turning the others off if she pushes the issue. And Lily's asleep. But yeah, I didn't want to call him out but I'm waiting on Serris too.
-
Yeah I was wondering. But it's all right. Thanks for the compliment. Despite my 7 years' experience RPing, I still think I'm just mediocre. :p Anyway, I'm back from my trip, actually, though I HAVE been busy preparing for my upcoming tours, as I received my schedule from one of my tour operators today. I'm not insanely busy yet though... won't really be until I get the itineraries.
Well if Serris is really busy, I guess I can just have the don call Tony back into the room or something... though admittedly, I'm not sure yet on his motivations fully, and without being too spoiler-y yet, am not sure if he'd directly ask Tony to go or not.
-
Hate to bring this up, but there's some logistical issues here. There's NO way Kojuuro could simply bug the party, Starfall. He was scanned just like everyone else, and any equipment he had, including bugs, would've been confiscated. I mean the don wouldn't be in his position if he allowed bugs in his house, after all. :p Also, if Kojuuro's leaving, he's doing so without his weapons, because those were taken too and placed in a location he's not currently aware of so... yeah. Logistical problems.
If you're worried about getting frozen out, I wouldn't, because we're still discussing amongst ourselves what's actually going to happen in regards the next steps.
Also, I might utilize this later on, but would Tony have Marcus's contact info, Bushwacked? I was thinking once the pulse hits, it would be a gambit Tony could play to try and help the group out.
-
Yeah, since he was a member of the Purifiers it would make sense if he knew a way to contact him :yes
-
Great. :) This opens up possibilities for later on then. :)
-
In addition, Anne's horn is sensitive enough to pick up bugs and actually eavesdropnon them (at least before it was broken).
She's definitely know if someone in the party was bugged.
-
Yeah so there's that too. :p On top of that, he couldn't leave the safe room (or enter it for that matter) without being seen. The elevator has nothing to hide behind, and you didn't exactly explain how he got down there. It can really only be accessed by scanning the data of two separate Stracci family members. I think I just want to make sure you aren't jumping the gun, Starfall, cause we might not even be heading to Pelvanida, depending on how things go and what I've been working out with LB&T. :p
Also, I was thinking of making a Purifier character, and already have a rough concept down. :yes
-
I had Anne pick up a signal from Kojuuro's bugs via her horn but because of the damage, she can't eavesdrop or pinpoint it.
-
Works for me, though one thing, Serris. They're just kind of all standing in a hall in the basement of the house, Don Stracci's not in his office, if you want to change that. :)
-
Anne and Soren are still upstairs. Maybe one of his guards or something could meet Anne?
-
That's fine, yeah.
-
Well, it looks as if Emi, Adrian, and Kojuuro are gonna end up in a fairly bad spot.
-
pretty much as bhat revealed emilena was working for lupis and now the gang is going to go after him hard.
-
Well, it looks as if Emi, Adrian, and Kojuuro are gonna end up in a fairly bad spot.
What else is new? :p
-
I'm gonna have to ask you to redo your posts, Starfall. First off, you autoed one of my characters (the don) by assuming he'd just imprison Adrian... which he wouldn't. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't appreciate me taking control of Adrian and having him killed for killing two of the don's soldiers, would you? Second, your most recent post makes no sense. How could Adrian do any of those things if you specifically wrote that his kneecap was shattered, AND he required crutches from his previous injury?
I don't appreciate the autoing and I'm gonna have to put my foot down here. By killing the don's soldiers, you've earned Adrian a death sentence, so please redo your posts. It makes no sense for Adrian to be imprisoned by the don at all. He has no reason to take him prisoner or torture him, as he gave him his word he'd help him, plus he owes him for saving Tony's life, so he'd never inflict physical pain on him.
-
If you want, Adrian, you can have Adrian randomly teleport somewhere away from the manor. We can blame it on Lily. She doesn't like hearing anyone in pain, after all.
-
well my group is now in the back of Tonys car
who else is riding with him?
-
Lily is. Emilena is indisposed.
-
From Skype:
Also, the latest character to appear is Joaqu“n Garc“a Martinez, a Presa Canario (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perro_de_Presa_Canario (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perro_de_Presa_Canario)) who runs a florist/drug dispensery. He's big, buff, muscular and an avid wrestler/grappler who also dabbles in kickboxing.
---------
Also, I joked about converting the Diane Whipple case (San Franciso woman killed by her neighbor's Presa Canarios (Bane and Hera) which had been trained for dogfighting) into an anthro-world appropriate form.
1.) Bane and Hera are the nicknames of two Presa Canario career thugs who confront the victim in a stairwell, beat them to death and then rob them.
2.) Bane and Hera are the nicknames of two rather unsavory Presa Canario clandestine drug manufacturers. They keep two large tracking drones (Into the Black's replacement for dogs) in their apartment and let them roam loose. The victim somehow sets them off and they quite literally rip the victim to pieces.
----------
Tracking drones are drones controlled by a handler and programmed to find fugitives or contraband. They carry an enormous suite of sensors to assist them and have six legs, allowing them to move very quickly, even leap and pin fleeing suspects. They are highly customizable and can be outfitted with anything from light armor, breaching tools, firearms and eveything in between. A common – and illegal – modification are four powerful arms (2 in front and 2 in back) tucked under the robot. These arms are strong enough to rip off organic limbs).
----------
Yeah, I'm kind of an awful person.
-
Keep posting please? Pterano parked the car so that we could continue doing things with our characters on foot. Also we could wrap up Kojurro at the very least.
-
sure i'll finish fighting and have kajurro limp off.
-
I'm working on a neurobiology paper so I'll post later.
-
Seems I'm in luck! My tour operator has paid my internet charge, so I'll be able to post in the evenings! :yes
-
My turn to have some internet problems - hopefully it'll be fixed by tomorrow, but if not I'll keep trying to use free wifi when I find it :rolleyes:
-
I get to spend my free time driving back to a neghboring town to retrieve my phone...I'll post tomorrow.
Luckily none of my characters are currently plot relevant so im not really holding anything up
-
Okay.
So we now have to wait for Pterano to post.
Also, a vote. Should we keep Nairda's near stereotypical ghetto accent or restore it to his previous one?
I vote that we keep it because it's funny. And I'm gonna say that it was revenge by Doctor Jiang because Adrian once stiffed him ó big time. As a result, he replaced Nairda's damaged larynx with a vocoder that talks in a stereotypical "Ghetto" accent.
Remember, Doctor Jiang is a fully qualified Cy.D but he isn't bound by the Academy of Cybernetics's Code of Conduct. Consequently, stiffing him will usually lead to him vandalizing the augment so embarassing things happen (radio telepathy implants that continually broadcast that the recipient is a sexual deviant and/or that the recipient is a dishonest crook; programmable implantable LED tattoos that form obscene images or cursewords in foreign languages; brain implants that enhance thinking and other traits that make the recipient have embarassing tics <like randomly cursing, flapping their hands, etc>; spinal cord implants for enhancing reflexes that make the recipient incontinent or constantly sexually aroused; artificial arms that constantly make obscene gestures etc). There, he hopes that the Augment will be sufficiently embarassed that they 'll return to his clinc to have him fix it. Stiffing him again will simply cause him to remove all implants, reverting the Augment back to a Baseline.
-
I'd be okay with however LBT and the rest of you would prefer it - the idea of Jiang changing his voice on purpose does sound pretty funny :)
-
i prefer returning it to normal, personally.
-
Hehe, I'd be fine with whichever. Gizoogle makes me laugh every time without fail and takes literally no time for me to filter to.
Also like the idea of him trying to put the moves on women while permanently sounding like Snoop Dogg. But I'll give Pterano the tie-breaking vote.
-
Does Nairda seem like the person to stiff someone?
If not, I can retcon it as an accident or programming that someone fucked up.
-
He is absolutely 100% no questions asked undeniably the sort of person to stiff somebody. And then act self-righteous about it afterwards.
Yeah make Dr. Jiang do it intentionally, that's a great rationale and Nairda deserves it. Whether I'll eventually fix his voice box is undecided, but for the time being let's make him somehow more annoying for the other characters to listen to
-
Yeah keep it. Tie breaker.
-
All kinda waiting on you Serris, cause you control the doctor.
-
World-Building Info: Eggs, Meat and Dairy
Eggs are produced and sold by chickens. Yes, the chickens are anthro.
Milk is produced and sold by anthro female mammals like cows, goats, etc.
Meat is sourced from fish and other sea animals. Mostly catfish and tilapia from closed circuit vertical farms. Crabs, clams and other shellfish are also from closed circuit vertical farms.
Wild fisheries (save forage fish like menhaden, sardines, etc) are pretty much collapsed. They're not extinct but fishing has damaged their stock to such a degree that decades or even centuries will need to pass until they're restored.
Seals are raised for meat in the Arctic regions. They are used for meat and leather.
Meat from animals like pigs, sheep, cows, etc. is in-vitro grown using the same equipment and techniques that are used to grow replacement organs and skin for the various species in this 'verse. Many of these tissue culture facilities manufacture organs, skin and other tissues for scientific or medical purposes. It's illegal to culture tissue for consumption as well as advertise it as such, but the Lanthae PD have better things to do than bust a lab tech who sold a 3 oz pork chop to someone for 300 creds.
-
OK everyone, just letting you know I'm off on my first tour tomorrow, and won't be back till late Sunday night. I'm not sure about my posting capabilities yet, and I probably won't be taking my laptop, but I'll have my new tablet along and as I'm getting free wifi at the hotel, posting might not be out of the realm just yet. So anyway, just giving everyone a head's up early here!
-
Okay, now how do we reintroduce Soren and the rest of the crew?
Also, Nick has said to me that he wants Nairda restored to normal.
And speaking of Nick, we're waiting for you.
-
alright guys i'll reply . the trick is, how to reunite everyone?
-
I think Axel and/or Tony has a cell phone.
-
I'm not sure what to do about Nairdas voice box. Certainly I'll fix it, but it might happen "off-screen" assuming we ever have any sort of time skip.
-
just as long as it gets fixed. off screen is fine.
-
wish granted :p
-
How did Kojurro survive the anti-Augment pulse? He's the most Augmented character of the main cast, and he was in a cheap jail cell.
-
he was sent back out into the city by broadstreet and was shield from the blast by being inside a building when the pulse went off. but hes banged up from being assaulted by a band of purifiers.
-
The pulse totally goes through buildings, but whatever. Starfall wrote him to be horrifically overpowered with no explanation, guess this is just a continuation of that.
-
Hey guys, I was thinking that maybe this might be a good spot to end the first part of the story (assuming there's going to be a sequel)? I can't think of a lot more I could do with Axel or Marcus for this story arc. I was thinking that maybe, if LBT agrees to it, Axel and Lily will decide to leave and find a place of their own, to recover from everything, and have some time alone for now?
Of course, if a sequel comes into the works, I'd love to join it :)
-
As I recently told serris on skype, my character arcs are almost done as well. I have maybe two posts left in this roleplay.
Bushwacked that was what I had planned to happen to Lily so that would work fine for me!
-
Haven't really gotten a chance to do much with my own characters, and Vergil's main arc is gonna take place in a follow-up I plan to run with my characters, so yeah, my character arcs are pretty much done as well. Gonna wrap my stuff up shortly.
-
Same here.
Soren's gonna be a wandering cyberneticist in some remote part of the country.
Aaron and Anne will die. Aaron will be lynched by a group of pissed-off Baseline cyberneticists. Anne gets a dose of marijuana that has been laced with something, she hallucinates she's a Pegasus – and jumps off an elevated walkway, thinking she can fly.
------------
As for a sequel, the fact that the Purifiers were planning a coup would have made great sequel fodder. But this new villain could be pretty good sequel fodder too.
-
Kalis will definitely feature prominently in the next arc.
-
My four characters. Broadstreet Marita Rose and Marie will be back for the sequel. kojurro will die after pissing off the wrong guy at a bar and literally get his head ripped off. broadstreet will latch as a police chief in a new city and the three girls will live in an apartment together. rose will kick her biproxytol habit thanks to marie and maritas help and will be a singer at an off broadway theather. marita will keep in touch occasionally with the others, but will settle into a more domestic life.marie will be a card dealer at a local casino, it pats well and is less demeaning than working at a strip club.
-
Bringing the Purifiers back for the sequel could be fun, since with Rhaegson dead I imagine there'd be some sort of power struggle as to who'd take over. Maybe the Purifiers would be forced to work with others to take down the bigger threat ( Kalis). I'd like to bring Axel back into it too.
We can always discuss plans later when we're all ready to start up the second part :yes I'd only really be able to start seriously putting forward some ideas from the 16th onwards, since that's when my final exams finish.
-
I suggest we at least reach 80 pages in the story as thats a nice round number. thats a few more posts..
-
I'm not sure if I'm coming back for the sequel...Emilena and Lily are completely done with their stories. I have no idea where I'd take their characters. And I don't have any ideas for new characters.
-
Yeah, we could finish this and then I could start planning. All of my exams finish on May 12th.
-
emilena would have to find a job somewhere and lily could marry axel and they could live together. marita could offer soren a roof over his head so hes not on the street,
-
I'd like to run the follow-up, if you would be OK with that, Serris.
-
I'd like to run the follow-up, if you would be OK with that, Serris.
Sure thing!
-
Cool! I'll probably start it up sometime after I get back from my current tour! This'll give everyone else sometime to come up with character concepts too.
-
Man, I just can't quit you guys.
I'll be back for the sequel, same characters too. This RP, I experimented with planning freaking everything out for Lily and Emilena. In my opinion that turned out amazing, but let's try the opposite and wing the sequel. Interested to see what angles this takes.
-
I'm considering dropping Soren to a "recurring extra".
My main character might be the Triad enforcer I never got to play, Doctor Jiang or maybe a lab tech who escaped from Pelvanida.
Look for characters based on my two pets too!
On a side note, this will mark the first time my main characters and I are the same ethnicity!
-
great job on the rp guys. i was glad to be a part of it.
-
And with that post I bid adieu to this roleplay. See you guys for the next one.
-
I capped off the RP with my final post.
Also, I think this is the first time someone's ever ran another RP based on my setting! And I'm really proud of the fact that I did my worldbuilding enough for someone to like it that much.
As for the sequel RP, keeping in line with the cyberpunk theme of this one, I propose we have craphole cities and settings. Oh yeah, and we keep the "high tech, low life" ethos of cyberpunk in mind as well.
Well, see y'all next round!
-
I had an awesome time with this, thanks everyone for making it such a fun experience! See you all in the sequel :)
-
nice work everyone. i'll close this thread and the rp and move it to the completed section.
-
Yep! Great RP and a fun time! See you all for the follow-up!
