Not saying they are being evil. I'm just saying kidnapping people without sending a formal letter of warning to your targets is kind of rude.

going to attempt a post up by tomorrow.
Hey all, work's been getting nuts on my end, and combination of stress and bad hotel internet means I haven't been making my posts on time like I should. After thinking about it, I don't want to lag behind and hold up any RPs anymore, so I've decided to take a break from the site for now. I hope I don't burn any bridges behind me, I may be back around winter when work slows to a crawl and I have time and focus to devote to posting again.
Any characters I've left drifting are fair game, do whatever you've gotta do, and I wish everybody the best.

Oh no don't leave us Krauxis! This Band of Brothers must stand together!
...But if you really must leave let me at least say this.
"May the sunlight find you,
thy days be long,
thy winters kind,
and thy roots be strong."

Good to hear, SCG.
And on an opposite note, sorry to hear that Krauxis. I hope life settles down for you in due time. Thanks for informing us.
I'll probably try and find 1-2 new roles in the old IntChk. *crosses fingers and sighs*

Saw the "ad" (so to speak) on Facebook, and having read the OOC OP I'm quite interested. I'll be rather busy packing and travelling over the next few days, but I will hopefully be making an application!

Firstly, apologies. My computer broke down and finally got access to internet a few hours ago.
Will work on that reply now.
EDIT: Actually I'll skip posting this round if i can. I'm not able to write as much as I hoped to write, plus I don't think there are anything that was mentioned in particular to progress as stuff like the comment by Soshi and being shaken awake only require reactions from Yasukazu, not necessarily important enough to mull over for long.

Hey there, glad to see you're interested, feel free to ask about the CS or fill one out when you have time.
@SCG: Okay, well a post from myself will need to wait until I figure out who is joining us, so if you want to make a short post, feel free. I will be taking over Krauxis' character to help in the transition so I do have some tweaking to do. I've been bogged down with another essay but I just finished it so the rest of the week should be normal for me.
I would like to go all clichey and stuff, but I´ll just get right to the point - I have been slowly returning to RPG the last week and now, if possible, I would like to announce that I am ready to jump into Corrected & Connected at the first possibility granted to me.

That's great to hear! We'll have to discuss what to with your role since they weren't included in the kidnapping.
Posting interest, assuming a slot is still open. Given that I'm not informed otherwise in the interim, my character sheet will follow shortly.

Name: Brandt Knute Erling
(AKA Brandon or Brad)
Alias in the DgtWld: Celtic_Knot
(AKA Celtic or CK)
Age: 21
Average Appearance: Brandt is usually slouching slightly, but still measures six feet tall and onehundred seventy-nine pounds. He has dark hair and blue-grey eyes. He prefers dark, unadorned clothing and sometimes wears thin, simple silver chains around his neck or wrist. He tries to keep the numerous scars on his hands covered with gloves, but does nothing to hide the star-shaped scar over his left cheek bone or the smaller one adorning his right eyebrow. He has several tatoos on his chest, back, and shoulders, each featuring a different design of celtic knot or rune script.
Corrector Appearance: In the DgtWld, Celtic_Knot stands with his back straight at his full height. This fact combined with the horns adorning his avatar making him look around 8 feet tall.
(Please disregard the staff.)
Weapon of Choice: A pair of long, bladed tonfa with rune script along the blades.
Cell Phone:
Personality:
+Poised
+Intelligent
+Loyal
+Kind
-Stubborn
-Secretive
Background:
Brandt is the son of a Japanese woman and a man descended from Norsemen. He is the eldest sibling of a brother and sister, as well as two half brothers after his parent's divorce and remarriage. For a few years, he and his full brother and sister were raised as patriotic, christian Americans... However, somewhere along the line, Brandt lost a measure of his respect for that way of life. Because of this, when he was old enough, he chose to return to his mother in Japan and free himself from his father's stringent sense of morality. For years, this caused issues between him and his father... But eventually, the man came to accept that he could not change his son, and came to respect the boy's decision in spite of his inability to understand it.
The rest of corrector's youth was often just as difficult as his home life. He was often picked on for his thin frame and poor eyesight, causing him to become severely introverted. This made the boy bitter and jaded long before he should have been, but eventually, he met a girl that brought him out of his jaded views and icy shell, as a few young boys are fortunate enough to do. She was new in town, and didn't know the boy's unfavorable, sometimes violent reputation. Instead, she came to know him as the kind soul he hid behind the cold facade others knew.
The two were inseparable for those few short years they were together. Soon, though, the girl had to suddenly move away with her family for reasons neither child understood, leaving the boy behind. For a short time, the boy felt betrayed by the world. Hell, perhaps this was even the reason he grew to spite his father's country and religion, sparking his desire to return to Japan and declare his citizenship therein... but that has long faded into obscurity.
It wasn't until after the girl left that he was properly introduced to and intrigued by cellphones and the internet as a whole. He got his first cell at the age of 12, and learned that he already possessed an MChip. With the internet at his disposal, and a vent in the form of music, (both writing and listening,) the onset of what might have evolved into depression was prevented.
Years were spent in the therapeutic embrace of music and knowledge. Naturally, this led to his pursuit of his own musical ability. He taught himself how to operate a synthesizer, and earned the money to buy one himself. He joined his middle and high-school bands. It might have been this connection to music that brought him to the attention of the Japanese GVM, or it might have been his ability in various sports and martial arts, but he neither knows or really cares. Now in college, he further pursues music, hoping to better his own rhythm, tempo, and melody, and get his music noticed.
Do you want our characters to already know each other?
It would likely help if they knew of Celtic, but perhaps not Brandt. Whatever works, however.
Do you often frequent an OOC of a RP you're in?
I try, but sometimes, no. As a general rule, I get nervous when speaking to others rather easily.
How active can you see yourself being in this RP?
I intend to be somewhere between fairly and extremely active.
Any questions you have for me?
When do you want me to jump in?
Edit: Assuming I'm accepted, of course...

What most americans call a police baton is also called a Tonfa. Most look much like a long, blunt stick with a handle jutting out of the side. The weapon is held by this handle with the shorter edge jutting out inches above the fist and the longer edge held perpendicular to the fore-arm. Celtic's Tonfa are longer than usual, and are more like straight swords than sticks. The flat of these dual-edged, serated blades rest against his fore-arms.

@Rysmarin: Great to see a finished CS. ^_^
Now let's jump in...
I'm quite surprised (in a good way I think) to see his Corrector appearance have non-human characteristics. Very cool, I think. Granted when say the horns get hit, it would translate to his ears getting hit in the real world, etc.
Should I assume he is from America if he was raised as one? Or was he in Japan, just raised by say American parents who moved to Japan? I accepted an American character against my better judgement and well, it ended up being a dud so I'm really against accepting characters who are from overseas. It can make unnecessary barriers, be them cultural or language/upbringing wise.
Since "Norse" influences him, I'd love to see how it plays into his development and mindset. You mention he's a bit violent by soft spoken/shy, but then also brave. Is there a change in him that occurs down the line, from say when he discovers tech to when he's at his present age?
in terms of bringing your character in, it depends if you can change his origin a little, since as I mentioned, having characters from the same place is really going to keep everyone glued together. Now whether he's from another part of Japan and transferring, or if he's been with the group on/off for a while...can be decided. I think dealing with the bureaucracy will just get a bit taxing if we bring a non-native in, though the last option would be to bringing in someone who is, say, of European decent and on a year or two leave of absence from their duties in JPN while away, working with say another Gvn for a limited time.

Okay any suggestion and etc I am happy to hear and fit to the needs. When it comes on reading up the ic that was posted till now I give myself two days to get it done at most.
Character Sheet:
Name: Milos Ukitaka (nickname by friends: Miro)
Alias in the DgtWld: BreGle
Age: 22
Average Appearance:
Corrector Appearance:
Weapon of Choice: two handed war-hammer something like this ->
Miro tends to use the hammer in close combat. To block and parry with its hilt or to swinging it around in a circular motion. I was thinking of incorporating maybe mid ranged attacks by using the hammer as source of shock wave that would dis balance the opponent if slammed on the ground. Including the enchanting of direct hits, as in amplifying the destruction if the hammer directly hits the opponent. The down side would be that MIlos is slow compared to some other correctors, and simply prefers the close combat.
Cell Phone:
Personality:
+social
+positive
+loyal
+ determent
- spitefully
- naive
Background:
His grandfather comes from the regions of balkans, the country Serbia and he stayed in Japan after his first visit to this new mysterious land for him. Falling in love with a japanes woman from Osaka, soon marrying her. Staying in Japan,which he dearly loved as much as his wife. Japan becoming his new home.
Milos was named by his grandfather, who was stubborn and keep insisting to be the one naming the newborn. His mother giving in to her fathers request. As Milos parents were mostly busy with work, it was his grandpa who took care of him in his young days. Being the free babysitter for him. Leading to his grandson to be really drawn towards him. Liking to spend time with the old man more then actually with his parents. Him being there to play, tell him bedtime stories and help the boy grow up. Talking a lot about his own ideals and ideas of the world. Making Miro absorb those ideas as what the world is really like.
Even thought he considers himself Japaneses, thanks to his grandfather he has a soft spot for the culture the grandpa came from. Listening a lot about the grandpas birthplace, it was at the age of 8 when he first visit it, over the summer. That visit was a powerful experience for the young boy. When he came back home, Milos was a very open and determent to never lie and be for help to anyone of his friends. At start he did felt a bit shy and overbearing but soon learned to handle the amount of how much he is welcoming and how much he should be respectfully towards others personal space.
His parents often thought that their son is a bit too much influenced by the proud grandpa and moved away from him, at least thats how Milos perceived it. In his eyes at that young age he have felt that his parents didnt want him to be influenced by his grandpa as much as he was.
In truth it was several things that lead up to Miro's family moving. From firstly his grandpa not fully approving his daughters husband in the first place, to some money problems. The father then moving with his family away ( to Tokyo) for a better job and on the plus side not having to deal with the extremely stubborn man. Leaving their son constructing the story in his head that it was because of him enjoying more the time with his grandfather, then with his family. Of course once away they wouldnt go visit the man ever weekend, but actually prolonging the time between the visits, which only strengthened the ideas in their sons head why they moved away.
It was that time when he was 14 that he hated the most. Being rude and trying to cause trouble in protest. Mostly by skipping classes, going to places that were not allowed to be entered. For example a building under construction and similar. Places children werent allowed to be. Even starting fights, well more like brawls then actually fights, back speaking to his teachers. All in hope it gets to his parents to just let him be. It didnt have the wished effect. In opposite the teacher were very disappointing in him, especially for his grades drop. Milos started to dislike the school and thinking the school is useless in ones life.
The teachers demanded from his parents to be stricter towards him, to watched over him better. Mostly hoping that distancing him from bad influences, Milos may improve in his studies. Which his father accepted, for his son future sake. Milos felt like he was on house arrest. Not taking it well, the isolation and and not being around his friend as much if at all, made him attempt to get his parents to allow him access at least the world wide wi fi, that started to be talked about. The suggestion Milos made in hopes to rejoin his classmates, over the chats and the wide web.
His parents were fine thinking it will keep their boy out of the bad friends influences and give him more access to various knowledge.
It kinda did, Milos was amazed with the new phone he got. The feeling of unlimited possibilities was carrying him on wings to try everything out that it was offering him. The 24 hours a day were not enough for everything Miro wanted to see.from the touch screen motion, at times he did felt left out when he couldnt take pictures like his friends did,Before he was using a old nokia 3410 a present from his grandpa. And as such a present Milos sit out, but he was determent to not allow this to brother him at all. Instead proudly telling that his phone can be washed in the washing machine without any side-effects. One can only imagine the amazement when he got this new phone. It was a new world to explore, the previously uninterested in technology boy over night became obsessed for this new technology. Games, videos, music, apps everything interested him. And he wanted to see everything. His grades just barely improving giving the illusion to his parents that it worked for their boy to be a better person and have a safer future.
A bit later he managed to get even his grandpa into using this technology, even if the old man thought face to face hugs cannot be replaced by anything in the world. It didnt mattered, for his grandson he learned to use this modern toy, and it made Milos happy to be more freely talking to the other. Video chatting mostly with the man.
When he turned 17 he couldnt imagined a world without his phone anymore. His old nokia was still standing on his nightstand and being charged. Not that he ever used it, he was just emotional attached to it. He just couldnt trow it away, he likes to have the past around him so he could learn from it, or just be overly nostalgic with it.
The surprise that he was asked to come to government was more then a surprise, fearing 101 fears, before he got properly explained about the situation. A day later he accepted, who wouldnt in his place.
His grades were still bad but mostly passable. Uni wasnt a interesting thing for him, and he didnt sing up for it when the time came. Instead going to visual design classes and doing few smaller projects.Earning his own money, well beside the corrector job. He liked to play with the visuals and art design of things. But as he explored the various styles, he discovering a unknown weakness of himself. The irrational love for overly cute things, which he hides from other people as he is a manly man not a girl to have such a love for a fluffy cute big eyed cat plushy. He does own a few of cute things, but keeping them out of plain view. In short embraced that he likes those things for some reason.
His days as corrector he spend a lot exploring his music taste having a wide bank of different taste, jpop and kpop reflecting his everyday life, but when he is on the job his music taste swing from the old songs his grandpa loved, to soft french ballads. Depending on the situations.His battle style became a strong defensive, a tank how one call them in gaming. Able to take a lot of pain and damage before his concentration goes to hell, and he becomes unable to battle. It was mostly because of his stubbornest and spitefulness in battle., that he could take it. Those two things are driving him. Which wasnt praised by his superior, thinking it would kill him one day because he would push far beyond his physical limits. After a while of experience collecting, and a few events Milos stopped being too spitefully, trying to moderate his stubbornness. Working more on his defense and vitality. Becoming a lot more caution in his preparation for battle...
He worked for nearly 4 years as a Corrector when he heard that his grandpa was seriously ill. His concentration suffered, and he took a break then, pausing from his corrector job and fighting of Vs to stay with his old man, moving for a while back to Osaka. He knew he was more of a danger then help if he couldnt be with his whole heart at the job. He did cherished his grandpa but he hung just as much at his corrector collages and partners. And once his grandpa died of old age, it was really hard on Milos. It took some time where he behave somewhat antisocial. Griffin his lose, for some time.
But over a year later from the last time he was on his job, he is returning picking up his job again. Determent to go on with his life and be strong and supportive. Returning to Tokyo, deciding that it was no time to pull such a sad face, his grandpa would be angry if he saw him so sad.
Some Info I need your input on:
Do you want our characters to already know each other?
Hm...Yeah I think it would be good thing
Do you often frequent an OOC of a RP you're in?
I am not really aware how else to make a character and discus plot ideas setting with out a ooc.>>;
I basically hung around the ooc, to see different ideas and etc.May post often but trying not to go into spamming the ooc with random stuff XP
How active can you see yourself being in this RP?
2-3 post a week could be the safest thing to say.
Any questions you have for me?
Well only if there is anything I have to make sure to look up.
Edit: Repaired some of those horrible grammar mistakes I have when I am hyper and brainstorming about things. ^^; Hope it looks now better.
Edit: added and fixed it some more.

It didnt mattered, for his grandson he learned to use this modern toy, and it made Milos happy to be more freely talking to the other. Video chatting mostly with the man.
When he turned 17 he couldnt imagined a world without his phone anymore. His old nokia was still standing on his nightstand and being charged. Not that he ever used it, he was just emotional attached to it. He just couldnt trow it away, he likes to have the past around him so he could learn from it, or just be overly nostalgic with it.
The surprise that he was asked to come to government was more then a surprise, fearing 101 fears, before he got properly explained about the situation. A day later he accepted, who wouldnt in his place.
His grades were still bad but mostly passable. Uni wasnt a interesting thing for him, and he didnt sing up for it when the time came. Instead going to visual design classes and doing few smaller projects.Earning his own money, well beside the corrector job. He liked to play with the visuals and art design of things. But as he explored the various styles, he discovering a unknown weakness of himself. The irrational love for overly cute things, which he hides from other people as he is a manly man not a girl to have such a love for a fluffy cute big eyed cat plushy. He does own a few of cute things, but keeping them out of plain view. In short embraced that he likes those things for some reason.
His days as corrector he spend a lot exploring his music taste having a wide bank of different taste, jpop and kpop reflecting his everyday life, but when he is on the job his music taste swing from the old songs his grandpa loved, to soft french ballads. Depending on the situations.His battle style became a strong defensive, a tank how one call them in gaming. Able to take a lot of pain and damage before his concentration goes to hell, and he becomes unable to battle. It was mostly because of his stubbornest and spitefulness in battle., that he could take it. Those two things are driving him. Which wasnt praised by his superior, thinking it would kill him one day because he would push far beyond his physical limits. After a while of experience collecting, and a few events Milos stopped being too spitefully, trying to moderate his stubbornness. Working more on his defense and vitality. Becoming a lot more caution in his preparation for battle...
He worked for nearly 4 years as a Corrector when he heard that his grandpa was seriously ill. His concentration suffered, and he took a break then, pausing from his corrector job and fighting of Vs to stay with his old man, moving for a while back to Osaka. He knew he was more of a danger then help if he couldnt be with his whole heart at the job. He did cherished his grandpa but he hung just as much at his corrector collages and partners. And once his grandpa died of old age, it was really hard on Milos. It took some time where he behave somewhat antisocial. Griffin his lose, for some time.
But over a year later from the last time he was on his job, he is returning picking up his job again. Determent to go on with his life and be strong and supportive. Returning to Tokyo, deciding that it was no time to pull such a sad face, his grandpa would be angry if he saw him so sad.
Some Info I need your input on:
Do you want our characters to already know each other?
Hm...Yeah I think it would be good thing
Do you often frequent an OOC of a RP you're in?
I am not really aware how else to make a character and discus plot ideas setting with out a ooc.>>;
I basically hung around the ooc, to see different ideas and etc.May post often but trying not to go into spamming the ooc with random stuff XP
How active can you see yourself being in this RP?
2-3 post a week could be the safest thing to say.
Any questions you have for me?
Well only if there is anything I have to make sure to look up.
Edit: Repaired some of those horrible grammar mistakes I have when I am hyper and brainstorming about things. ^^; Hope it looks now better.
Edit: added and fixed it some more.
Genkai said Now let's jump in...
I'm quite surprised (in a good way I think) to see his Corrector appearance have non-human characteristics. Very cool, I think. Granted when say the horns get hit, it would translate to his ears getting hit in the real world, etc.
Should I assume he is from America if he was raised as one? Or was he in Japan, just raised by say American parents who moved to Japan? I accepted an American character against my better judgement and well, it ended up being a dud so I'm really against accepting characters who are from overseas. It can make unnecessary barriers, be them cultural or language/upbringing wise.
Since "Norse" influences him, I'd love to see how it plays into his development and mindset. You mention he's a bit violent by soft spoken/shy, but then also brave. Is there a change in him that occurs down the line, from say when he discovers tech to when he's at his present age?
in terms of bringing your character in, it depends if you can change his origin a little, since as I mentioned, having characters from the same place is really going to keep everyone glued together. Now whether he's from another part of Japan and transferring, or if he's been with the group on/off for a while...can be decided. I think dealing with the bureaucracy will just get a bit taxing if we bring a non-native in, though the last option would be to bringing in someone who is, say, of European decent and on a year or two leave of absence from their duties in JPN while away, working with say another Gvn for a limited time.
While I was thinking about it on my own, I considered having him move to Japan alone at around 18 to attend colleges there... but if you prefer, I can certainly keep things simple and append his character sheet to say he was raised in Japan rather than America, as you said.
As for your next point, while I believe that literally anyone can be brave, I still think I'll change "brave" to "poised" on his sheet. I just couldn't think of the word I wanted when I wrote him up. ^_^;
However, I would like to mention that I never intended to imply that he's shy, because he's really not. While I did say he used to be very introverted, and implied that he can still be so on occasion, I never actually meant to say he's shy. There's a slight difference between the two in that as shy person actually finds it difficult to interact with people, while the introverted simply don't have much desire to beyond what is necessary.
