OOC: New Characters

#OOC
Hey everyone, I know everyone from one group or another so I got a couple of new guys: The Old Man (because every RP needs an old bear) : https://sites.google.com/view/cabeiriprime/characters/james-malcolm-cobbs And the Young Buck (also the fourth in the relationship with Ella, Rosalind, and Orlando):https://sites.google.com/view/cabeiriprime/characters/virgil-nicholas-sesto So before I just throw them into someone thread, anyone want to call dibs for this game day? Don't worry I can always find an excuse for why my char is looking for yours if your brain immediately fires up "they have nothing in common". But I thought I would ask before just barreling my way into someone's thread... -Kimmy

20/09 - Shopping Trip (Snicks, Open)

#Mirriam-Redmond
#Snicks
#20September3342
Date: 20/09 Time: Morning Location: St. John's Market Characters: Snicks There were many things Snicks found odd and sometimes unsettling about his new home, chiefly, the sincere care people had for each other. The first time his neighbour had brought him a casserole (honest to heaven real lamb casserole), introduced herself and asked him how he was settling in ¨C well, Snicks regarded her with suspicion, answered her in monosyllabic and refused to eat the casserole for fear of poison. Then it happened again, and again, and again. Sometimes the same people, sometimes different people, and eventually he realized they were actually sincere in their concerns and genuine in their desire to get to know him. it was incredibly unsettling. In the two years since his arrival he has accepted their genuine interest, even reciprocated it, but it never stopped his first instinct to be doubt and fear. He rubbed his hands vigorously against his jeans as he psyched himself up for entering the general store; Sinjin¡¯s aggressive adoption tactics were starting to frighten him a little, he knew it came from a good place, but if he had to decline one more dinner invitation he was going to scream. It was draining being cornered and showered with affection. Taking a deep breath he prayed to the sky that Aidan was behind the counter, or maybe one of their on and off again workers. There was a swooshing noise and a burst of hot air as the door opened, letting him into the bright and colourfully arranged store. Hunching into his jacket to make himself appear smaller he crept around a few of the aisles, hoping to catch a glimpse of the counter. He turned a corner. His gaze wasn¡¯t focused on where he was going but out of his peripheral version he spied movement. Stopping himself short he started to fall over his toes, catching himself at the last minute and stopping himself from tumbling into the person in front of him. ¡°Shit! Sorry,¡± he muttered, eyes on the ground, his heart rate already beginning to sky rocket. Open tag!

Absence From...

#OOC
Hey, I'm not going to be on the discord for a while. There's an unrelated personal issue that's causing me stress when I go on, and I'd just prefer to not be on there and have my anxiety go up. I hope this is okay and I apologize for the inconvenience. Sam

Hey, just saw the two newest charries (like them both btw) but in reading their bios I could not help notice both were talking about money. Thing is I have been told this planet has no money system at all. Personally I think that causes all sorts of economic problems and will be a bear to write around but there it is. My own charries business is a saloon so I had to think on that very hard. I have come up with a system where when you enter the place you bring your goods/services whatever up to a counter and trade that in for specially made chits which then can be used within the saloon to buy drinks or gamble at cards, etc. If you have any chits left or even made more chits by luck at your gambling, you then trade them back in at the counter before you leave. Still leaves a lot of questions about how people agree on the worth of said goods and chits but hey I had to come up with something. :)

Character Profile - Calliope Grey
#Characters
#OOC
Name: Calliope Grey Known As: Grey Age: 30 Birthdate: 1st August Height: 5¡¯1¡± Eye Colour: Bright blue Hair: Blonde General Appearance: Always tastefully dressed, she doesn't have a lot of money but she tries to add a touch of flair in a handmade necklace or bracelet so she seems more put together than she feels. Shoulder length hair that she's constantly putting behind her ear in a tick she's aware of, and annoyed by when she realizes she's doing it. Often wearing a grey apron in her business. Visible Distinguishing Marks: None Common Knowledge: Grey is her maiden name, she switched back the second she realized her husband had left her. She also goes by her maiden name instead of her first name almost exclusively feeling that the name Calliope is too fanciful for the person she's trying to be now. Grey was the girl in school that all the other girls either looked up to and wanted to be, or properly despised because she really was a brat. She has no formal training when it comes to healing, but has soaked up every bit of knowledge from her mother-in-law who practiced the old ways. When it doubt, a wound gets a poultice. She hasn't taken the time to form any new friendships or relationships since her husband left her, not because she missed her husband but because she's been busy with her in-laws. She named her shop/clinic, Violet's, in remembrance of her ex mother-in-law as well as hoping the name of a trusted healer would lend credibility to her own abilities. She has a small garden outback where she grows herbs and a few veggies, everything else she gets from the local grocer.

Character Profile - Sinclair Booth
#Characters
#OOC
Name: Sinclair Booth Known As: Sin Age: 39, probably Birthdate: 15th March - That was the day he woke up and has adopted it as his birthday Height: 6¡¯2¡± Eye Colour: Brown Hair: Black General Appearance: Korean, leanly muscled, carries himself carefully, with a eerie grace. His clothes are well cared for, boots always polished, he seems ready for anything and generally is. Always wears a white tank beneath his shirt or button up, it makes him feel more put together. That said, there's generally a look of wariness in his eyes that doesn't stem from a lack of trust but a lack of confidence in his own history and life choices. He rarely makes anyone feel at ease around him, something tends to feel wrong on an instinctual level, Sinclair tries to ignore it. Visible Distinguishing Marks: Decades old scarring around his left ear, fully healed. Common Knowledge: Sin is a messenger, whether local or in another town, he'll get whatever it is, person or thing, where it needs to go. He has a 100% success rate. He can be a quiet guy if you're asking about him, he prefers to keep the conversation on others. He's a steel trap until you give him a couple drinks, he's a light-weight. If you catch him unaware, there's a good chance he's looking towards the Out There, there's a pull for him that he doesn't even recognize yet. While it's not completely common knowledge since Sin doesn't date that often, he's found that he enjoys relationships with men and women. He has a lot of money to throw around, but doesn't. He's an above average tipper, and is well known to buy groceries for those who might be in need, but doesn't buy much for himself. His left ear is almost useless when it comes to hearing, he's not sure if he was born with it, or if it has something to do with his memory problem.

St. John¡¯s Market A combination green grocers and general goods shop, St. John¡¯s Market used to be the original storage depot. It is a rectangular building made of stone and steel with a low ceiling, long plexiglass windows, and a double door that whooshes up whenever someone stands on the pressure plates on either side of it. It was used for several different purposes before being turned into a greengrocer and general store by Love St. John. The St. John family own a farm about 10 miles outside of town. They had been traveling to the nearest town of Glastontor to sell their produce. It was tiring, so Love decided to find a place to sell their produce in Brea, and from there it grew into a thriving business. Love built a second storey extension so he could live above his business. It is made of wood with a few salvaged solar panels, and some more plexiglass windows. It is a rather generous living space with two bedrooms, one bathroom, kitchen, living area, and a small study. Occupants: Love St. John

#Mordecai-Farm
Mordecai Farm One of the oldest homesteads in Brea. It was originally created by the first colonists, the ancestors of the current Mordecai family. The original structure was a large, round capsule home made up of a large open plan kitchen living area, two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a modest conservatory. The capsule was made up on weatherproof, insulated white material that kept the home warm in winter and cool in summer. It was covered in solar panels which powered all the electricals inside the home. Since then the house has had several wooden extensions. There have been three additional bedrooms added, a small basic extra bathroom, and a children¡¯s playroom. The homestead sits on several acres of land as it was intended to be a fully functional agricultural farm. Most of the land has been left to go wild with no one left to farm it. In the past few years, with the declining health an increasing alcohol consumption of Mordecai Sr., more and more of the land has gone to seed. Now thee is a modest vegetable patch, a herb garden, and a poison garden, boxed in by fully grown hedgerow and a small little wooden fence. The gate to the property is out of sight of the main door, but there are plenty of security cameras around the property to inform the Mordecai family of any intruders. Occupants: Cai Mordecai

Height: 5'8" Eye Colour: Light blue Hair: Dark Brown General Appearance: Anna is kind of disheveled and rough-looking a lot of the time. It's rare anyone's seen her in anything other than her farm clothes or street clothes, she doesn't take a lot of care in her appearance, and half the time it looks like she rolled out of bed, showered, and then did the minimal amount to look presentable. Her wardrobe mainly consists of a lot of jeans and work shirts and t-shirts, things she doesn't have to worry about getting dirty or ripped up during work, or during her other jobs, and either a jacket or coat for inclement weather or when it gets colder. While she can clean up occasionally, she usually doesn't. Visible Distinguishing Marks: A weird scarred patch where she apparently got a tattoo removed, and some scars on her arms and neck that look like needle vaccination marks. She doesn't know where they came from. Also a tattoo that only three other people have seen. Common Knowledge: Has a sheep and dairy farm near Brea, deals mainly in those areas with a very small sideline in low-impact meat when one of her herd dies of natural causes. Is perfectly capable of defending herself and her daughter Has a routine of "morning chores, breakfast, farm work with a break for lunch, dinner in the evening, down to the pub for some darts and a glass or two" that she doesn't normally deviate from, unless she has things to sell or something else is in her schedule. It's not well known, but if you have a problem that you want kept quiet or that you'd rather the local law enforcement not look into, you can wait at the end of Anna's driveway (she doesn't conduct business on the property) any time in the afternoon, and she might look into the issue.

Rules Respect Respect goes a long way and makes for a more enjoyable writing experience. This includes, but is not limited to: 01) Do not god-mod 02) Do not write or move another writer¡¯s character without permission 03) Do not harass, insult, or use hateful language at any players 04) Do not meta-game ¨C give your character knowledge they would not know, but you know from reading other people¡¯s posts 05) Respect other writer¡¯s storylines. Do not jump onto a closed thread or involve your character in a plot you weren¡¯t invited to 06) This is an 18+ group but clearly label anything that goes into that territory Character Creation I want this game to function as organically as possible and so I will not be adding complete profiles for everyone to see. Players need to create a profile that includes details on appearance, basic information such as name and age, basic personality, things that are ¡®common knowledge¡¯ that other players will likely know, a backstory, and any ideas of plots, secrets they want explored, etc etc. Everything needs to be discussed with the GM and approved before they can be played. There is a template provided that can be used. Posting ¡®Action days¡¯ or days that are being roleplayed will happen in a linear way so all posts will need to include the date, just so it is easy to keep track. In the subject line include the date, post title, who is in it, whether it is open and closed, and any warnings. Dates will be done day then month: 22/09 e.g. 22/09 Summer Morning (Cai, Snick, Open)
