World hacker sign up - Page 2

OK, if we can get one more person to sign up we should be able to start.

and also, just because I said "somewhat serious" doesn't mean "dark" or "depressed" just put some thought into your posts and the overall flow of the game.

and Danny, just come up with a completely new name, not your own name or an ancient family name, just something new. also Jeff Gordon still isn't cutting it.

also, I'd like to know what everyones role playing experience is. I'm going to need somewhat experienced, and mature individuals if this is going to work. Judging by some recent posts, there seems to be a shortage of those virtues.

Massacre and AB, your concepts are perfect, good stuff!

Danny and RMV, your initial characters kind of worry me, makes me think you just weren't paying attention or something, especially where the names are concerned, plus you're pretty new...

and whoever posted Jeff Gordon, needs fixin still.

Name: Lucian "Thanatos" Darius
Age: 27
Physical appearance: 6'0 250lbs Short curly hair, Black with bright red highlights. Muscular Build. Caucasian.
History: Lucian Darius is a Graduate Student at the local University. He has fallen on some hard times in his life. Every time he tries to get ahead, something seems to happen that knocks him a step behind. He is currently studying Music composition, but in order to make ends meet, he has taken up singing lead for a rock band that plays at a few local bars. His roommate, also a graduate student at the local University, is studying physics. He has been working as a research assistant for one of his professors. The manager at the bar told Lucian and his band "Dead Man's Door" that they would get payed a percentage of all sales. In order to help Lucian out, his roommate often brings some of the guys from the lab to the bar for a few drinks and to hear the band.

Outlook: You've got to go with the flow. You have to take the good with the bad, but they will always balance themselves out. Death is an inevitable aspect of life, so why be afraid of it. You don't have to embrace it, but still there is no need to worry over the trivial things.

Occupation: Graduate Student studying music education. Also the lead singer and keyboardist for a local Rock band.

Role playing experience: Mostly Larp, however I have played some table top. I have played many RPGs over the past six years including some that I and my friends created. I also often include in my RP experience that I have studied acting, and have participated in a wide range of performances form Shakespear to musical theatre to Opera.

ok thanatos, drop the "thanatos" part of your name and your in, thought I do feel a little worried about the close parrallels between your character and your real self, from what I know at least. (music student etc.)

so thats six, although still waiting to hear from Jeff Gordon guy again, and we might get a few more. i expect that later today I'll start off the main thread.

does anyone have any questions yet?

The "Thanatos part was a stage name thing, but it can be dropped. And don't worry about the close parrallels, I know how to keep my real life and game life seperate. But if you would like, I can change the whole thing. But I would request to at least keep the band part going. That's the central idea to my character.

Yes, just one.

World Hackers... The name makes me thing of something out of Shin Megami Tensei or the Digital Devil Saga, both of which are creations of the same company that brought the Persona series RPGs to the world. Is there a connection in that or is this a completely original concept? You have me curious on this.

Oh, and thank you for the compliment. I love my work and I love it when others love my work too. And that is the most you'll hear the L-word from me unless I start working on some genuine drama.

What do you think my chances of getting in here are?

wilysword · 12-05-2004, 10:59 PM

Sorry it took so long, i actually forgot about this.

How exactly is Jeff Gordon not an original name? Just because it's a name that a real person could have, I've never met anyone with that name, or heard of one. You said that our characters would be regular people, so I picked a regular name.

But If I must pick a different name, how about Kale Aytin?

Jeff Gordon is a very famous name. He is a NASCAR driver. One of the better ones, though he is a whiney little baby. (Have stories that actually back this statement up.) And he his either loved or utterly despised by most NASCAR fans.

Funka Genocide · 12-06-2004, 03:13 AM

okie dokie then, I'm not even going to comment on Jeff Gordon.

*glares at Wilysword*

NASCAR sucks!, *cough* no offense to any fans out there.

I'll post the main thread now, and see how this thing ends up. Everyone will start out somewhere within a main building, that building being the research lab. You'll al be going about your daily business, and I'll play al the npcs and narrate the story.

and demented mongoose, just post a character and I'm sure it will all work out.

wilysword · 12-06-2004, 09:32 AM

Come on, why would I have heard of some stupid loser who drives a stupid car in circles for three hours. Maybe I'm a loser, but I'm not dumb enough for that.
