Whoops. I answered it last time I wrote that post.

There will be hovering car-things, but they won't hover much more than about a foot off of the ground. There are regular wheeled vehicles for the less wealthy people.

I'll edit my post and put more in the bio section.

Well I'm not looking to lift buses and punch holes in metal doors, but are they better then the normal biological counterpart?

You didn't figure this out from the countless other stuff he did?

Name: Shad Ligonis
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Appearance: Caucasian, brown hair (cut short), deep set green blue eyes, 5�11�, and ears that seem too large for his head.
Equipment: Laptop, penknife, windbreaker jacket, foldable umbrella, and a bag which is large enough to hold the said laptop, umbrella, and his work papers.
Bio: Shad is an energetic, yet unremarkable virtual reality programmer who lives in the Middle Sector of Aeron. Shad has made a name for himself in the VR programming world for his excellent work in the area of water dynamics. He can create the best damn puddles you�ve ever seen. He frequents a local bar in the hopes of meeting a woman but never does; he is however, a very good darts player. Shad also sometimes goes down to the local community college and tutors students on mathematics, physics and programming.

JAD-I'm already going to hell for all the other shit I've done. Figured I might as well upgrade (downgrade?) to a few levels lower.

Celes-What? I was serious.

Fine fine. If I can't use that character...

Name: Derek
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Appearance: Derek stands about 5'10" tall, and is rather thin and gangly, to the point that it's amazing he's able to wield the shotgun and .45 at all, much less fire them without losing a limb to the kick... but he can. In fact, he doesn't look dangerous at all. If one were to put him into a stereotype just from the way he looks, clothing not-with-standing, they'd probably say either 'geek' or 'nerd', thanks to his frame. His face, thankfully, doesn't look 'geeky' at all, although it is rather effeminate, with a thin jaw-line, thin nose, and long eyelashes, which merely lends more to the initial feeling of his being completely non-dangerous. Even his eyes, which are a brilliant shade of bright emerald green, are light and jovial, completely belying his skills and job, as does his hair, which is long and tousseled about his head.
Equipment: A pair of .25 caliber semi-automatic pistols, a long barrel .45 revolver, a sawed off 8-gauge shot gun, a jack knife, brass knuckles, and a kevlar/poly-cotton weave duster with a lead lining which has been altered to hold and conceal his various guns.
Bio: Derek is a hired bodyguard and gunslinger, and, even though he lacks any formal training, he's very good at the latter half. Unfortunately, he also has the worst luck of any bodyguard in Aeron city, and so, although his skills have always been enough to keep his clients alive, no one that hires him ever manages to pay him without getting shot at least once along the way.
As a result, he doesn't get hired very often, and even when he does he doesn't get paid very often. Who's going to tell a mob boss that they HAVE to pay... even though they took a bullet in the kneecap when you were suppose to be guarding them? Not Derek, that's for damn sure. Unfortunately, that also means that when you're asking such questions as 'who knows where they're going to get their next meal?' the answer is also 'Not Derek'. What little money he does get tends to go toward keeping his weapons and duster in good repair, because without them he can't make any more money.
Although he lives in the lower section of Aeron city, he's been known to end up in all the sections thanks to his job, although the upper area is a bit rare lately. All the CEOs can afford bodyguards with better records.

I give up. I just won't do this right now. Too many things going on in school (yes, I'm still in school), finals are next week, my brain's probably been fried by being in my room with no air conditioning (and I'm in the attic, so it's more like an oven), and I have nothing to do otherwise. I'm just going to stop until summer vacation comes and I can actually think alittle more clearly.

Royalspork · 06-09-2004, 06:51 PM

uh I am oddly (I don't like the futuristic type rps) attracted to this rp, but my question is, how good are the shields and armor?

I am thinking modern ronin backstory.

Darth SS · 06-09-2004, 07:04 PM

Name: Brad (Better known an B-Rad)
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Appearance: I'll get around to it. Just think Happy doctor meets Hitman meets Sam Fisher
Equipment: Various scalpels, needles (arm), medicines (arm), some swabs, and the neccesary bandages, as well as anti-bacterial stuff. He also has something called a laser scalpel. There's one in the tip of each finger, and it projects about half an inch out, and is about three times effective as a normal scalpel. He can also set them to cauterize. Also, contained within his forearm (which opens) is a needle and a few chemicals.
Bio: Brad is a doctor. In fact, a very good one. He lives in the Middle Sector, and is in the business of saving lives. Or, he was. Right up until someone thought it would be hilarious to drug him, then amputate his arm and sell it on the black-market. So, he got a bionic replacement. He outfitted it to aid with his surgery, and other medical stuff. Most notably not having to run around for chemicals.

Celes! Welcome back, we all missed you.

I originally wanted to do a paramedic character, but SS kinda took the doctor thing, I'll think of something else.

The second you come back the whip comments begin.

That's for "common" armies. Much like Gao Hu's, who's invasion force reaches the border and sits in ambush for any fleeing units of Huang Yao Shi. In the grass. Cao Zhen, however, continues to follow the road, as grass is too green for his liking this time of year. You ain't got no K-Mart!
