Ransom ~ A Literate Strategy Roleplay

takaedakumi • 30 January 2013 at 5:16 PM

The President of the United States of America has been abducted due to the very first successful mission to break into the White House. It has left all of America in a panic. The people who captured him are asking for $100,000,000 and they managed to hide the President somewhere until the trade happens.

What is your job? You are secret agents whose main goal is to locate the President and if possible free him from his capturers. It seems easy enough, right? Wrong. You have only one week to find him, with a possibility of extended time if the government decides to fake the trade.

You are each to go undercover and use an alias for this mission. It's up to you whether you work together to find the President and bring him back to safety. Also, did I mention, you are super-soldiers with special abilities, and you are to keep them secret at all costs? Yep.

Oh my, this is interesting. Forums and rules please?

takaedakumi • 30 January 2013 at 5:26 PM

~Rules~

- No godmodding, Gary Stus or Mary Sues.
- You must be literate above all things, if you don't know what you're doing, you're out of here.
- Use believable abilities.
- No killing without permission.
- One character per person.
- Keep goofy things to a minimum, the government wouldn't employ/train idiots.

~Notes~

- The President is not Obama. He is a fake President, made up for this roleplay.
- Yes, in this roleplay you can in fact, fail.
- There are people around that are checking for foul play, be careful about when and where you speak about your mission.
- Put the word "Justice" under "Other" in your form if you read the rules and notes.
- I do not have a character, rather, I play all the people you will run into.
- If your character is eliminated (killed), you may not make another and you are out of the roleplay.

~Form~

@takatheeducatedkid Yay! ❤️ Lovng this RP, thanks for telling me Taka-Waka-Waka. o3o
---
Name: Eytan Yin Ayax
Alias: Yin
Gender: Male.
Appearance: Averagely tall, standing at a height of 6'1 with a firm and strong built, but lacking any muscles. His tanned skin is a result of years spent in roaming under the scorching sun. Shortly cropped hair, dark brown (nearly black) in color, often sticking upwards for whatever reasons or brushed backwards on some occasions. Muddy dark brown eyes. In short, nothing special to look at. But, he compensates with tattoos. In total, his body is decorated with 13 pictures. Four tribal tattoos, a few japanese signs, one dedicational rose tattooed on his bicep. A vined christ plastered on the left side of his neck, the thorned vines wrapped around his throat and continuing to his shoulder, where it connects to the dedicational rose. The vines continue even lower, wrapping around his arm to the elbow. A snow white dove on the outside of his left elbow, also wrapped in vines. A tiger's head on his left hand and a bleeding heart drawn on his chest, barb wire going through it.
Clothing: His overall dark appearance is accentuated by black jacket, dark jeans and boots. Rarely willing to wear suits, but sometimes resorts to those as well. One rule: black! He has a steel ring (with retractable spikes on the rims) on each of his thumbs.
Ability: Morphing into any matter he touches (be it metal, wood or human skin) for a short while. Unable to morph into unstable structures (liqiuds, cloths and glass alike), hence the possibility of them breaking and killing him.
Other: Justice. Owns a motorbike he rarely parts with.

@jupiter_hollow No problem! I dunno if you saw, but I edited a bit of the rules a little while ago, just sayin'. Accepted, yo! xP

Figured I would try something new, I mean, no one has made a strategy game in which you can lose, right?

@takatheeducatedkid

Name: Ally Stephens
Alias: Lillian
Gender: Female
Appearance: Ally has straight light brown hair that reaches to the middle of her back. She average height for a 16 year old girl, and has tanned skin. Her eyes are blue and seem to get darker the closer to the white of her eyes. She's not overly skinny, but isn't big either. She has a small scar on her ankle.
Clothing: Ally usually wears black skinny jeans, a black spaghetti strap shirt. She wears a black leather jacket that clings to her skin over her shirt. Ally has black suede boots that come up to her knees, and has a black belt with a hand gun attached to it on her right hip. Ally wears a silver choker necklace with a small heart charm. When she has to go to an event that's formal she wears a long, strapless, dark blue dress that has a sweat heart neckline, and empire waist. She still wears her choker necklace, but for shoes wears high (like ridiculously high) black closed toe and heel shoes.
Ability: While being able to shot and hit her target most of the time, and being a black belt in almost everything, her ability is totally unrelated to any of that. Ally uses her mind to control things, but not people. Though, there is a limit to what she can control. She can't control living things, and it depends on the mass of the object.
Other: Justice, usually gets around in a black Mercedes Benz.

@mercury Accepted!

I have a feeling this won't get far, we only have two people. ;P Perhaps the other people of this forum are the mortal enemy of new things. xD

Appearance: Tall with olive skin, dark hair with a single silver streak in it and brown eyes. She has a slouch from sitting at a computer desk all day and her left arm is a high-tech prosthetic.

takaedakumi • 4 February 2013 at 9:08 AM

@dada_dragon I love how your ability is a more realistic twist to what everyone would typically imagine! Accepted~

@cotton YES YOU HATH, NOW YOU HATH BEEN ACCEPTED x3

dada_dragon • 4 February 2013 at 12:48 PM

@takatheeducatedkid
Lol. So I totally read the rules again just now and somehow I missed the 'justice' rule, which doesn't make sense to me because I remember all the rules before and after it, so my brain must have somehow skipped it. XD

takaedakumi • 5 February 2013 at 11:00 AM

@dada_dragon Well I've seen you roleplay before, so I didn't think I couldn't trust that you'd follow the rules, it's okay. x3

We'll start soon, I just can't get to writing a beginning post at the moment. P:

dada_dragon • 5 February 2013 at 1:26 PM

@takatheeducatedkid
I just thought it was more hilarious than anything. I'm not sure how I missed only that one. XD

And no worries. I am patient. I'm subscribed to the topic, so when you start, I will know. 😸

takaedakumi • 10 February 2013 at 3:36 PM

@jupiter_hollow @mercury @cotton @dada_dragon

I'm sorry for the inconvenience everyone, but I won't be able to start this until sometime after Easter. I hope you can all wait until then, again, really sorry...!

jupiter_hollow • 10 February 2013 at 3:37 PM

@takatheeducatedkid Awuh *huggles* Ish okeh bud, we'll be faithful to this topic 😸

ems • 10 February 2013 at 3:43 PM

@takatheeducatedkid You forgot age in the forms... Also, is there an age limit? Like, characters have to be at least 20 or something like that?

takaedakumi • 11 February 2013 at 4:27 PM

@ems Ohh, right! I'll go fix that... xD

whispers • 11 February 2013 at 5:06 PM

@takatheeducatedkid
Oh~! I haven't seen a roleplay this interesting in ages!

Name: Dallas Ladden
Alias: Texas
Age: (20 to 40) 27
Gender: male
Appearance: Dallas is a well built young male, standing at 6' 2" with loads of muscle. His short and stubby blonde hair stands up at an angle, with the help of hair gel. He has a broad chin, underneath slim mouth. Freckles are splattered along the bridge of his nose, as well as just below his eyes. His eyes are a pair of blue, and chilling shade of it. The icy blue adds some bite to his stare!
Clothing: Dallas normally wears black jeans, a dark gray tee with a leather jacket to top it off. The leather is worn, like somebody had beaten it. When he has to dress fancily, he just changes his pants from jeans to a pair of trousers. He always wears his black tennis shoes.
Ability: Dallas has a very good way of persuading the information of our people. And he's has a black belt in martial arts, but he prefers freestyle fist-on-fist.
Other: Justice

takaedakumi • 12 February 2013 at 11:51 AM

@whispers Accepted~ Just a reminder that it won't be starting until around Easter, however.
