Name: Charlie Wilcox

Nickname (if any): N/A

Appearance:


Age: 23

Height: 5'7

Weaponry/Equipment:

Toxins
Smoke Bombs
Hydrogen Cyanide
Tear Gas
Laughing Gas
Mace

Explosives/Firearms
Grenades
Rocket Launcher
Twin Handguns

History: Charlie was born into wealth and raised her whole life with the privileges that came with it. Her father, Leonard Wilcox, was a wealthy business tycoon. His primary, and more public, steel companies were innocent enough in nature. However, it’s rumored that Wilcox has been involved in shady weapons deals for a number of years. Charlie’s mother, Julia Scott-Wilcox, was the heiress of her own small fortune and remained mostly ignorant of her husbands illegal business practices in the earliest years of their marriage. It wasn’t until she neared the end of her life that Julia began to grow suspicious of Leonard.

Julia’s violent death occurred early on into Charlie’s teenage years. She left her daughter the majority of her fortune, and a note expressing her doubts over her husband and her growing fear for her own life. In her grief, Charlie’s already cold and neglectful relationship with her father grew into outright hatred. As per her mother’s advice, she kept quiet about his guilt until she turned 18 and was finally able to control her own money and leave her childhood home behind.

Once she was on her own, Charlie made her home in a tasteful apartment building, which was much more modest than the surroundings she had grown up in. To distract herself from her bitterness (and boredom) Charlie spent a lot of nights in questionable company and atmospheres, party hopping from elite VIP social events, to grungy underground gatherings. As she began visiting the more unsavory parts of the city, Charlie came to understand the danger it posed much more intimately. Her first experience defending herself awakened a taste for excitement in Charlie, and momentarily satisfied the rage that had been developing in her since her mother’s death.

Charlie dedicated some of her time and money into her childhood interest of chemistry. Though not inclined towards formal education, she funded her own small lab with a discreet team of scientists to develop her own arsenal of explosives and other toxins. Once adequately armed, she began pursuing and putting down criminals, spurred towards vigilantism by an odd sense of revenge towards the city that took her mother. It’s also worth noting that she engages in violence, in no small part, for the sense of euphoria that comes with the brief release from her bitterness, and for her own entertainment.

Charlie continues to research the situation surrounding her mother’s murder, and the crimes allegedly committed by her father.

Personality: Charlie is explosive, like her weapons. She is bold, outgoing, not easily intimidated, and doesn’t back away from a challenge. She is also flirtatious and finds the humor in most situations. Despite her lightheartedness, she is deceptively clever and skilled at manipulating situations – and minds – in her favor. Though she's technically one of the good guys, her morals remain unclear.

Name: Alistair Mathe
Nickname (if any): The Flying Scotsman

Age: 30
Height: 6'3"

Weaponry/Equipment: Alistair utilises his body, wrestling and fighting to subdue enemies. However, In addition to this, he also carries a
Claymore, Dirk and Sgian-Dubh. He also carries a small snub-nose revolver in his Sporran. He wears heavy duty boots with lightweight but durable steel on the toe and heel and occasionally gloves with built in knuckle dusters.

Personality: Alistair is a mysterious man in that no one can tell when he is telling the truth. He has told many stories about his history, but how many of them are true is entirely up to speculation. As a man, he never breaks his word, he has a strange nobility for one who lacks trust, though he has his own moral compass that he follows, with a special clause for when he should need to break it. He laughs openly and is entirely sarcastic. When fighting he is focussed but still playful in a taunting kind of way.

History: Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Alistair was part of a large and poor, lower class family. His parents were fairly loving, for all their drunkenness could allow them to love anyway. He grew up almost entirely alone and learned to not trust anyone, to lie to make his way upwards. He managed to get along fine for some years, make some money here, steal some there and lie his way out of anything. He lived almost without worry until he was about 14 years old, that was when his life spiralled downwards, out of control.

First, he lost his parents, they were attacked and killed for a beer and ten pound note. Then he lost all of his money and almost all of his possessions after a horrible flood. He managed to escape with what he had and was thought lost, forgotten by everybody. He managed to travel to America, and lived briefly alongside a cousin of his for a little while. He grew tired of all the violence around him and decided one night to do something about it. He took up his sword, donned his kilt and learned how to survive as a warrior, though he was called a vigilante. But with his perseverance and cunning, he managed to face all obstacles and crush all of his opponents, the thugs that were in the way. This turned him into the man he is now.

With the skills he learned, from his vigilantism and from actually paying for classes in a wide variety of hand-to-hand styles as well as learning to use his Claymore and Dirk properly, not to mention his revolver, he moves around at night and searches for strife, for combat. To trick and exact some form of revenge upon those thugs. Eventually, one day, he hopes to fit back into society, even though he thinks he is far gone from being suitable for it. He hopes to live a normal life and finally find joys and comforts of life he has never had, just as soon as he finishes his work, because if he doesn't, who would?

Other: Alastair has a keen interest in Physics and studies it in his spare time, in his small flat.

I will be overlooking all new posted Cs's shortly.

As for the amount of players we will have if everyone is accepted, I'd like to go over some ideas for a majority vote.

I honestly did not expect to get this much activity. Initially I wanted a small group between 3-5 players, but that obviously went haywire. Anyhow, to still keep thangs running smoothly, here are some options I came up with

Option 1: We make an entire new thread with new bad guys, but still have the same outcome - to clean the city up. We would have done role players go to the other thread and keep some here - dividing us evenly. There could even be crossovers, where some characters from the other thread jump to this one. Just an idea.

Option 2: Similar to Option 1, we divide Crown City into two sectors. Each sector would have its own kingpin like character controlling it. Of course the idea would be that these two kingpins are trying to take over each other's territory, adding to the violence of the city. We'll (again) put characters in one sevtor, others in the other - keep thangs balanced

Option 3: We just wing it and see what happens :)

As long as you don't play him out to be JUST like The Red Hood, then you're accepted.

Oh! And can you post a pic of your Gregory character, just for the hell of it. I'm curious.

I think option 2 and 3 seem pretty appealing. Saves the logistics of controlling two threads.

Option 2 or 3 for me as well. I think it would be best to keep everyone in one thread. Also, if you do the two different sectors, characters could pretty easily cross between sectors if needed/wanted. (:

I'm liking option 2 to be honest, makes some sense as the two kingpins are too focused on each other to view our 'heroes' as a major threats. Then when one's taken down by said 'heroes' the other starts to realize the threat, then things start spiraling downwards. But if option 3 is easier to work with, I'm fine with that.

Still working on that character BTW, taking longer than I'd like :/

Uh Draconis? We don't get floods or natural disasters in Scotland. It is practically impossible for Edinburgh to be flooded, the pentlands pretty much stop it.

Considering I live here as well, I do realise this. However I decided to go for a little suspension of disbelief there.

However I will note that Scotland does flood. Not on the scale of other countries but we have floods too.

Working on my character. Just a few things I need to finish. It's taking longer then I hoped. But now after seeing that we can introduce our own villainous character if we wish I think i'll change him into that. I was looking to play a bad guy for a long time now.

Sage Garrison
a.k.a. Ghost

Sage


Sage as Ghost


My anger drove me down that path. And once you go down it, you'll love it so much you can't ever go back.

Age:
25
Height and Weight:
6' 5"; 190
Weaponry/Equipment:

  • Throwing Knives- These are Sage's main choice of weapon just because he has learned to throw them where he can pin someone up against a wall. These weapons allow him to both kill and obtain a victim/hostage. He feels as if they are a multipurpose tool that he can use to his advantage when he needs something.
  • Pistols- These are Sage's secondary weapon. He prefers using these when he needs a quick kill. He has two, one backup in his boot and the main one which is on his right hip.
  • SR25 Sniper Rifle- This is Sage's favorite gun. He always has it on his back. It is help to be able to take out a moving target at a distance, especially those as important as leaders.

History:
Sage grew up close to Crown City. He lived just on the outskirts with his mother, his father, two older brothers and two younger sisters. Sage was known as the "directly" middle child. He didn't mind all that much. As long as his family noticed him every once in awhile and made sure to feed him, he couldn't care less. Because they lived on the outskirts, they weren't close enough to go to any school, so the children just taught themselves what they figured they needed to know. Sage taught himself how to fight and shoot, as well as throw kitchen knives into trees. His mother did not like that very much and punished him by making him stay in his room for three weeks with only one meal a day.

Sage's parents were extremely hard on him. They didn't like him very much because they were a very balanced family without him in the picture. Whenever he went out to go hunting and bring back food for his family, they would lock him out of the house. He was beaten severely for small things and punished sometimes for things that he didn't even do. All of this began to take a hold on Sage's mind and he slowly began developing homicidal and suicide thoughts.

And he was pushed over the edge with one little incident.

His brothers, who had been playing baseball in the backyard while he watched from a distance, accidentally hit a ball through the window. Immediately, they blamed it on Sage, who had been nowhere near the ball, but of course, their parents believed them and not him. That was the final straw for the parents as well. They beat him, punching him, kicking him hard enough to break bones, and threw him into the garage, locking him in. That one last shred of hope that they actually did love him disappeared and he broke. He grabbed a sledgehammer from the tool pile and broke the lock. He walked into the kitchen slowly, making sure that everyone was asleep before grabbing the kitchen knives. He walked throughout the house and silently, without any emotion or remorse, slit his entire family's throats.

He had no emotion after that. He walked out of that house, he was eighteen at the time, so legally an adult, and started down the path to Crown City. All of that good boy attitude was gone from him and he became a full on criminal. He broke into a weapons store and stole the SR25 sniper rifle, along with two pistols. He managed to pick up some throwing knives as well before he disappeared into the darker reaches of the city. He found an apartment for himself and became a hired assassin for the lower people of the city. He knew how much pain he had felt and he wanted to give those people some relief. So it didn't matter how old the victim was or what kind of condition they were in, he still did the job through.

He went back to his house only once, to find the corpses still rotting there, completely eaten by rats. He walked into his parents room and discovered some of his father's old army gear. He immediately stole them and took them back to his apartment. He created the design of how his parents looked in death on the mask and that is when Ghost was created.

Personality:
Sage is very unemotional and seems to not have a personality. He is angered easily, which means that he has a very, very short fuse and you do not want to tick him off. He tends to kill more for sport than anything. He has an undying bloodlust, which makes his job even more fun for him. He acts like a thief and an assassin because he still has to steal bullets for his sniper, until he finally realized that he could just kill the store owner and take all of the bullets. Sage has a very Hannibal Lector air about him, minus the cannibalism part. He will take down anyone who tries to get in his way, no matter who they are.
