{OOC} Infection
Hello and welcome to the OOC thread for Infection. This is a sci-fi roleplay. Please PM all profiles to me or post them here. I am open to any suggestions anyone might have to improve things here or in the roleplay. I like to know more about the people I'm roleplaying with so please don't be shy. Stay and chat awhile. :3 Link to the thread. Centuries ago it was that the humans of earth mastered the art of space travel and thus branched out across the galaxy. With new freedoms however came new burdens. Criminals were able to easily hide out after committing a crime. So many there were that the Intergalactic Police force could not branch out enough, nor offer the services to catch the assailants after they'd gone so far. Thus, bounty hunters appeared. » » » Working independently, or under a contract, these 'heros' were under no limits and could freely chase criminals across the galaxy for large sums of cash put over their heads by the Intergalactic Police. Thus balance was returned. The Intergalactic Police dealt with crimes within their branches galaxies (different branches for each different galaxy), and Bounty Hunters chased those who ran. » » » However, the appearance of the Sanerica disrupted the natural flow of life. It's origin was unknown, but it had the ability to transform someone over the course of several years from their natural state to that of a flesh hungry monster. Sanerica was a parasite! Worse yet, nothing, even with all the advances in medicine could rid the infected of the bug. Medicine could perhaps prolong the amount of time before complete takeover, but in the end, it was futile. Sanerica was characterized by a stigma on the skin during the first day of contraction. Slowly, it grew until it covered the entire body, which would happen after a period of several years. In the years that followed after first contraction, the infected would experience black outs and occasionally even complete insanity. When the stigma had completely covered the person, their appearance would change to that of a bloodthirsty beast, and all chances for reasoning were gone. The only way to stop them, was death. » » » Thus, like Bounty Hunting, Sane Hunting became popular. However, it was more of a crazy trend, designed by conspiracy hungry Bounty Hunters, or those with a particular taste for murder. They would seek out the infected and slay them, before the disease took full hold. Generally, Sane-Hunting is frowned upon by both serious Bounty Hunters as well as the Intergalactic Police. » » » The White Wing is a group of Bounty Hunters under the contract of a well known company called Ethos. Their bounty success rate is 100%. Why? Each of the crew members harbors a dark secret. While the secrets are different, it has created a sort of unspoken unity between it's members. And it is this unity that will allow them to discover the truth behind the Sanerica and stop it's rampant destruction once and for all. |
Okay, I just realized that I have a question... Lol What sorts of "dark secrets"?
I'll post my profile in a few minutes, I promise... Lol |
That is something you don't have to include in your profile if you want others to find it out by talking to your character. By dark secrets it could be that maybe at one point in time your character had a bounty on their head and in order to work it off they became bounty hunters. It's strictly up to you it is your character. And no rush on your profile take as much time as you need. :3

Whoops double post

>>My name is...
Shiara >>But you may call me... Shi-Shi, Ara, Kitty (VERY few are allowed to call me that, though...) >>I am... A 250-year-old female, but I look like I'm in my 20s. >>If I look funny it's because I am... A Feylorian. Feylorians are a feline humanoid race from the planet Feylor. Our society is based on our warriors, and honor. We Feylorians are all very agile, and are generally trained as warriors from a young age. We possess very powerful senses of hearing, sight, and smell, which leaves us vulnerable to extremely loud noises and strong, unpleasant smells, as well as high-pitched sounds of any volume. Our heartrate seems VERY low, due to our three hearts. Therefore, each heart has much less work to do. We can see with VERY little light, and have sharp claws and fangs. We are resistant to most known toxins, and we females seem almost too strong for our size. Feylorians generally live a very long time, and are not considered elderly until we are around 500 or so. >>I actually do stuff around here... Like keep us from getting killed in space, as the Weapons Specialist here aboard the White Wing. >>People say I'm... Hard to describe. I'm cold and distant until I get to know you, but then I can be extremely wierd and hyper. I always know when to be serious, though, and am unparalleled in weapons use, knowledge, and repair. >>My history... I was born and raised on my people's home planet, Feylor, and I lived there for the first 100 years of my life, happy. The only problem that soon developed was my wanderlust. My people are supposed to be warriors, not travellers, but I could never understand why the two had to be mutually exclusive. I kept questioning it and questioning it, but never received a satisfactory answer. Eventually, I was sent away to try my precious travelling and see just WHY I couldn't be a traveller AND a warrior. It backfired, though, because now I combine being a traveller almost perfectly with being a warrior, as a bounty hunter. My secret? You'll never find out. Because you simply don't need to know. >>Self portrait... Shiara My outfit >>Weapon of choice... Laser sword and basic blaster, but I can easily use almost weapon I can get my hands on. >>I have this ability... To project forcefields and manipulate the atmosphere contained by my forcefields. >>My sexuality... Is straight. >>I really like... Fighting, singing, working on weapons, travelling, hunting, writing >>I really hate... Loud noises, shrill noises, horrible smells, disrespectful people, Sanerica, killing, people who mistreat weapons >>I may just have a crush on... Nobody yet... ((Perhaps Captain Lucien?)) |
Yay! Another crew member! <3 I hope we can get started sometime soon.. I've been looking forward to this. Lol... I can see our characters getting along rather well, as long as she doesn't find classical music to be offensive noise, though at the volume level my character likes to blast it at there may be issues XD
EDIT: By the way, I can't seem to get the picture of your character to work D: |
Try it now. When the page loads, scroll down till you find "Cat Girl". Shiara is the grey one. >.< I'm on my iPod right now, so I can't really upload anything onto Photobucket, otherwise I would've done so for that pic... >.< Lol
|
You can't even upload it using a url? Hm. Well, that's interesting <3
|
Nope. Cuz I can't get the URL of JUST the picture... T^T My iPod doesn't give me the option of "open image in new window", or whatever... Lol, oh well. Glad you like it, though. I LOVE that pic, for some reason... Lol
|
Oh ok. I don't really know much about getting on the internet on the iPod... I don't have one >.<;;
|
Lol, don't worry about it. I don't really mind explaining stuff... MOST of the time... Lol XD
Oh, and I don't think Shiara will mind the classical TOO much, and she can always ask Mac to turn it down a little, right? Lol ^^ |
Lol, right XD I am so looking forward to this... all of my other forum rps have died and this sounds like it should be fun...

Human with some "mixed" ancestry. » » » I work with... No one. Why you interested? » » » I'm running from... People...Mostly ones in the Solar System. I had raided some cities, committed quite a few heists, and robbed from some very rich men. One of which I killed out of self-defense...Yeah let's go with that. » » » Proud to say I'm worth... 90,000,000 Dead 150,000,000 Alive » » » Inside I'm really... Neutral. Either way I'm going to die sometime » » » People say I'm... They say I'm too greedy since I'm the kind of person who used to mooch off of other people a lot and I always tried to scrap money when I could. I'm usually also pretty grouchy when I don't have enough sleep which is often. Catch me on an off day and I might snap at you, but usually I'm a nice guy. And by nice I mean if you don't bother me, I won't bother you. Don't expect me to be super cheerful either, it takes a lot to work me up. Also, I have a habit of staring at people's purses or backpacks or whatever storage they have. Mostly because I'm tempted to look inside. » » » My history... When I was younger I wasn't ever really social, instead I would sit alone, and stare at the ceiling, trying to find some pictures in the textures. I would sometimes steal cookies out of the cookie jar (and sure enough get away with it). At least that's where it started. I would start to shoplift small things like balloons or sticks of gum. Those weren't a big deal until I started going for the nice things: DVDs, shoes, and clothes. At the time it wasn't a big deal to me, but it was to my parents, William and Laura. When they found my stash, they had placed me in some sort of "steered straight" program, but that didn't work. The teenage years got hazy, when I became more withdrawn from everywhere else. I was a kleptomaniac, one who kept stealing for whatever reason other than need. I got better at hiding though, renting out a storage shed under a new name and changing it every so often. I got passing grades, but never really applied myself in anything. I could have "been something great", they said. I decided to start something big though: a heist. Before I had only broken into people's houses, but a richie's mansion? I knew that I was in over my head, but I was a kid and didn't know any better. I was able to get past most of the security systems and get a hefty amount. Unfortunately the owner of the mansion, some guy named "Kennedy", had come down and started to yell at the sight of me. Scared, I had taken the nearest object, a bust, and hit it over his head and then ran. Thankfully now, I've learned not to panic when some stuff like that happens and how to dispose of a body as well. I learned a few years too late though. I'm three years too late. » » » I have a Sanerica stigma... Okay I lied, I don't have Sanerica, I'm just a bad person. » » » Bounty Picture... [Dexter] » » » Gear... A pair of semi-automatic 9mm GLOCK. I generally use either 9mm rounds or explosive rounds. » » » I have this ability... Invisibility: I can bend light around me to make myself invisible to eyesight. Unfortunately, I can still be tracked with heat senors. » » » My sexuality... Straight » » » I really like... Eating, Silence, Stealing things » » » I really hate... The Intergalactic Police, Riding on ships, People who don't shut the hell up » » » I may just have a crush on... No one at all~ |
Um Cows Go Moo your profile is awfully close to mine. Did you practically copy my ability and the reason for running just reword them?
|
.__. Well, this sort of recycled from another roleplay where Leon was basically a hacker. The power was sort of to explain why my character was so good with technology. I didn't realize until now though that it was so close to yours. I guess that I'll go edit then...
|
I understand, I'm sorry to sound so rude about it.
|
It's fine. I'm kind of glad you pointed it out to me first. Also, it's edited now.
|
I still should have been a little more polite about it and for that I apologize. I will take a look at your edit and add it. :3
|
[color=blue]Well it's all fine now (: and okay![color]
|
Okay your profile has been added. If you know anyone who would be interested in joining your more than welcome to invite them. No need to ask for my permission I'm not selective on who joins. ;D
|
Yay! *glomps Cows*
You know what I just realized? All the girls are older than all the guys XD |
Not all of them Rampy's character is 17.
|
This is how it is so far:
Girls: Jordyn (26) Shiara (250) Akira (21) Boys: Nicodemus (17) Dexter (19) So, yes, all the girls are older than all the guys XD It's just funny to me that it's split like that, usually there's some sort of variety. Probably if someone else joins they're throw off my nice little split theory, but oh well XD |
Feel like your robbing the cradle if your character gets a crush on any of the guys? Lol
|
Exactly! Heehee... not that there's a problem with that. I kind of did that in real life.. although my husband is only a couple months younger than me, not a couple of years. My mom is two years older than my dad, though.
