Name: Marcus Flinn
Age:12
Gender: Male.
Appearance: Finding a pic ASAP
Personality: Marcus has a strong sense of justice from being a hero in his dreams. He tends to view things in almost a black and white right and wrong sense of things, making him come across as a bit strong willed and not easily swayed from an opinion or idea. Is easily amused by any form of comic, cartoon, or video game, and greatly enjoys discussing them
History: Marcus grew up in a standard middle class home. His parents were both average people, making enough money for a comfortable life but nothing much beyond that. He has an older brother who he greatly enjoys playing video games with and whose comic book collection he commonly reads. Overall, oustide of his brother, he hasn't made many friends his age. He commonly would overreact to small things due to his odd sense of justice making it hard for a lot of kids to get close to him, but it never really bothered him. Although his school life is mundane and not great, he lives in a happy home without much to be upset about.
Dreams: In his dreams, Marcus plays out the dreams of being a hero from his comics or games. When he enters his dreams, he is always at a small building that acts as his base. There is a small orb he keeps there that when activated, forms a list of all the scenarios and such he has made up or stolen from comics. He can choose one like choosing a level in a game, and he then plays out that situation as the hero he has become in his dreams. Those, in the right situation, the powers he has and the number of people in his dreams varies greatly night to night, although he has founds favorites that appear more than others.

Going to flesh this out more tomorrow, i got so caught up in things for the dream i kinda didn't flesh out the character itself much

Everything in the dream is relative to the dreamer, so feel free to use time travel as you please. Those banned powers only happen when two dreamers are interacting, as time being relative to both would mean that it would affect neither. You can't go back to an earlier point in your dream if another dreamer is inside because you can't force them back in time and out of the dream. Everything is open unless in involves multiple dreamers.

Announcement: I'm going to stop accepting new CSs at 10:00pm EST on Friday. If anyone else wants to join, make sure you post your sheet before that time. The IC will begin this weekend.

Similar to a story I was doing so I thought I'd jump in. Hope you don't mind :)

Name: Jack Clark or J.C as he prefers.
Age: 12
Gender: Male
Appearance: Real life
(looks a tad older than Jack but will do)

Dream


Personality: Smart, calm, gets bored very easily.
History: Jack is an average middle class kid. He lives with his young brother, cat and parents in a nicely sized house in (I don't know if you've named the area they live in). Each day he goes to school, something he hates. Jack is an almost completely normal child. He's good at sports and does well in school but nothing exciting seems to happen in his life. And there's nothing he hates more than being bored.
Dreams: Due to his hatred of boredom Jack's subconcious has turned his dreams in a persistent world. Each night he falls asleep and enters into what he believes is a troubled world for him to unite. In his dreams he is a warlord trying to takeover his world. His subconscious actively fights against him in his dreams. Sometimes he wins but there is always another battle to fight.

- CS Snip-


Of course I don't mind, I am sort of looking for people to join. I do suggest you read over the rules though, as you may find that your sheet is lacking something.

The only problem I have with your character is that his subconscious seems to be influencing his dreams far too much. The dreamer in this RP is in complete control of all things within their dream. Their subconscious couldn't influence their dream at all unless the dreamer actively pushes it onto the dream. For example, if a dreamer fell asleep in a terrible mood, the bright blue sky of their dream world wouldn't suddenly turn stormy, but it could if they made it. The difference between a dreamweaver and a normal person is their conscious control over the dream, meaning their subconscious has no part in it.

He is in control. What he wants it to have things to do. Hence his subconscious acting as a bad guy. Being a god of his world wouldn't interest him so he makes a world for him to save.

You said look at the rules, I'm guessing you mean the timestamp bit? I didn't put one as I didn't think I was done yet.

Name: Lucas Ochoa
Age: 13
Gender: Male
Appearance:



In his dreams he appears as an older version of himself with an athletic muscular body. He alters his appearance to match his role and the world he is in, but other than that he directs his attention to making himself look like what he would define as a badass.

Personality:
Between always being told he can do anything he sets his mind to and actually fulfilling that in his dreams, Lucas has come to think very highly of himself. He honestly believes he can do anything, and puts full effort into many things that interest him. He thinks himself invincible, even more so now that he's hit "that age". Lucas has a lot of nerve and never hesitates to throw himself into an uncomfortable situation. Having grown so used to never experiencing failure in his dreams (at least not any failure that he himself didn't will into existence), he is quite reckless in the waking world . Though he tries to be kind, he can't understand how others don't have the same attitude towards life at him. He has a strong sense of pride and pushes back pretty hard when he feels he's being disrespected.

History: Lucas's parents divorced when he was very young. They split on good terms, and Lucas gets to see his father any time he comes to town as well as spend a fair share of the holidays and summer vacations with him. He lives with his mother and stepfather. Lucas was introduced to the world of fiction through his stepfather, an English professor. He fell in love early on with the heroes in his books. He got further exposed to the stories of television and video games as he grew up. He became determined to be like them. In school he was more interested in soccer and creating his image. He put some effort into studying, deciding that a hero didn't need to be a genius but needed to not be an idiot either. As such his grades are decent, though he's gotten positive feedback on his writing. He's gotten into a couple of scuffles, either stepping into take down a bully for a smaller boy who didn't ask for his help or by overreacting to an insult.

Dreams: Lucas's dreams take various forms. He's often playing out a story in a world inspired by various combinations of video games, books, and movies. He likes to throw in various "twists" and jump around roles within the dream in order to make the story more interesting. One minute he's the president's champion defending the White House from the army of demons, the next he's the evil wizard descending from the raging storm clouds to kill the champion, only to spend the rest of the dream as the pro soccer player on a quest to the wizard's tower after accidentally discovering his only weakness. Until he decides he's actually the hero's sidekick who has to step in and save the world when the hero can't bring himself to make the necessary personal sacrifice.

Could you give me an example of what you mean by him fighting his subconscious in the dream?

Okay, the OP has been updated with the accepted characters. I had a hard time deciding who would and wouldn't make the cut, but in the end I just went with my gut and what I felt would best match the tone of the story I have planned. This is only the initial wave of characters for this RP, so if anyone wants to join later on I can put you on a list for me to message when the RP is open again.

I am currently working on the first IC post, but I can't guarantee that it will be posted tonight.

Sorry it's a little late, but the IC's first post is now posted. For all of your first posts I'm just looking for some time inside their dreams and then them waking up. If you want you can continue a little bit into the school day, just don't go too far.

Aaron and Everine are in 7th grade and are in the same class, Lucas is in 8th grade at the same school, Darien is in 5th at the elementary school, and Risa is home schooled so there's some more freedom there. If you want anything changed just say so.

Posted! :D
I hope you won't mind, but I added an image and some sound for ambiance.
I might do so again for other dreams in the future, provided I find something suitable for them as well.
You can trigger the sound by clicking on the picture.

Edit: Sorry for the post length, by the way, I got a little carried away with it... *-*

So... anyone going to try posting something sometime soon? Don't think you have to have massive first posts just because others do.

@Cryptiic, your first post was quite good. I'm looking forward to seeing what your dreamer does in the story.

Thanks! ^_^
I'm looking forward to see what comes next too.

It's actually really refreshing to just let go of your imagination like that and let your creativity run free.
Dreams are really fun to write about, since they don't have to follow the same rigid structure of story telling as reality.
I was just a bit anxious about the narration in the real life portion of the post, since I'm not really used to writing from a child's perspective.

Cryptik Wisdom has dropped out, so I have replaced Darien with Arianna on the accepted characters list. It's looking like AliceZaru won't be behind anybody though on account of a posting rate only slightly higher then the BPM of a corpse.
