Dragon Warrior Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 [center][img]http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/4452/illicitdeep6ud.jpg[/img] [img]http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/1826/welcome5yt.jpg[/img][/center] [FONT=Trebuchet MS]Many thanks for taking the time to read through this. This is the opening to the epic adventure through an unusual and mysterious part of our world: The Bermuda Triangle. Please read the plot synopsis in the Underground thread before proceeding. It'll help you understand a lot and know how to sign up correctly. [center][URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=53203][img]http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/2848/clickhere8gb.jpg[/img][/URL][/center] Once you have done that, you will fully know that you will play the part of one of the crewmates or scientists. I will play the captain of the ship. Feel free to be creative with your characters. Though you are limited to very few occupations, you may still give completely original lives and personalities to your creation. Do note that characters will [b]die[/b] in this RPG to add to the realism of the situation. Deaths will be determined by situations, character traits, and assorted other things, so no one is really safe, not even myself. Don't let this ruin your fun, though. With the Bermuda Triangle, you can almost go crazy with ideas because things are almost limitless there. I will ask you not to make any rash changes in the plot, though, since it may disturb the main flow of things. Nevertheless, feel free to make things more interesting and turn it up a bit. [center][img]http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/2718/signup1gx.jpg[/img][/center] Here you are. Please take time on your applications. There's no rush. This will be open for over a week to give everyone time to think up a good character. Also, please take to heart the tips I leave with every section of the sign up since it's mainly what I'll be going by when accepting applications. Also remember that quality will matter. I'm not looking for anything outstandingly professional, but I'd like it if you could tell when to use quotation marks and when not to. Remember that you're one of the crewmates or scientists. Your profile information will be about your character before the incident of your fellow comrades being lost at sea. Do not let the story of the RPG interfere. And most of all, enjoy yourself. That's why we do these RPGs, after all. [list][*][b]Name:[/b] Not everyone will be from Puerto Rico, so feel free to take in other cultures here. But I'd avoid getting too elaborate with names here. [*][b]Age:[/b] Let's face it, teenagers won't be here. Keep it at an adult age. [*][b]Gender:[/b] Male or female. Simple. [*][b]Appearance:[/b] I don't mind if it's a picture or a written description. But keep in mind this isn't an anime, it's supposed to be realistic. A lot of the time, anime outfits are not true to life. Keep that in mind when putting up pictures. [*][b]Personality:[/b] What are they like? Since their occupation is pretty much given, this is your chance to be original and creative. [*][b]Information:[/b] Like personality, this is another area to show off your stuff. Make sure to include how they became a scientist of crew member to run a boat. I'm not looking for anything too elaborate, but dig up some dirt on your guy or gal.[/list] And that's about it. Like I said, I will accept the best ones after sign up close in a little over a week from now. If you have questions or comments, the Underground thread is the place to put 'em. Thanks :D[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cancer Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 [B]name[/B] Jimmy Cernuto [B]age[/B] 27 [B]gender[/B] Male [B]personality[/B] Jimmy Cernuto is not the most charming guy in the world. He has his flaws, as any man does: he is often too forward, rude, sulky or just downright mean. But more often than not, Jimmy is the kind of person you?d want to run into on the streets. He had his problems when he was a child, but it didn?t take him too long to completely change his life for the better. He is quite a romantic, funny character who likes to take walks on the beach under the pull of a full moon. He?s easy to get along with, as long as you?re not too annoying. Because Jimmy is such an emotional person, it doesn?t take too much drama to bring a tear to his eye. Jimmy loves life, but he loves the sea even more. [B]information[/B] Jimmy was born to a well-known mobster and a struggling housewife in the middle of New York City. At the early age of ten Jimmy was already involved in hustling drugs for a living. His father, Dino, didn?t support the family with his profits, but instead used his money on heroine and fast cars. Jimmy dropped out of school at age twelve and spent all of his days on the streets, desperate for money or food. When Jimmy?s mother died of a drug overdose, he was in a terrible state. He had been arrested twice and he had been in drug rehab, but neither of these things helped Jimmy. Fortunately, when Jimmy turned sixteen years old, he was taken to live with his uncle, who was a marine biologist. He had a large condominium on the shore of New York. What Jimmy would see here would change his life drastically. After a week under special care Jimmy was able to stop smoking and doing drugs altogether, but what Jimmy discovered in his Uncle Danny?s library was what completely altered Jimmy?s path in life. He discovered a book entitled Devil?s Trinity, which told of a terrible place that Jimmy had never heard of before: The Devil?s Triangle. The whole mystery and fear surrounding this locale completely fascinated Jimmy. Jimmy decided that he would make it his goal in life to go to The Devil?s Triangle (Bermuda Triangle) and find out what was truly there, to have an adventure. When Jimmy asked his Uncle Danny about it, he told Jimmy to never speak of it again. This warning filled Jimmy with more awe, and made him desire to venture there even more! So once Jimmy came of legal age he bid his uncle farewell and left to become the one thing that he knew he was destined to be: a sailor. He worked long and hard under the wing of many extraordinary sailors and learned voluminous things, but never would a mentor allow Jimmy to even speak of The Bermuda Triangle. So time wore on, and Jimmy?s curiosity of the forbidden zone increased scores, but never could Jimmy find someone to travel with him to the Triangle. It crossed his mind many a time to simply venture it alone, but he knew well that this would be a horrible mistake. Jimmy soon grew hopeless of ever going to his dream locale; that is, until he heard word of a certain rescue mission?

Dragon Warrior Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 Sign ups appear to be going slowly (not to say the applications turned in at the moment are of little quality). I will be leaving this sign up open for a little longer. Some time next week it'll be closed no matter what (around Wednesday or Thursday). Thank you all who take the time to read this and/or are participating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
