Resistance Radio


Fighting for a Better Tomorrow


What is Resistance Radio?

Resistance Radio is a simple concept. You're given a pirate radio station in an oppressive galactic empire that regularly commits genocide and crushes freedoms. You're given news reports, and you, as a radio team, must decide what to air and what to not. You must decide your radio schedule, when you air, and what you say and leave unsaid. You are not a soldier, not a commander, you are a news jockey and provider of hope. The rebellion you support will see many hardships you will be unable to control, but there is one thing you're good at; giving the common man resolve to fight.

Not only that, but you could be the force that unifies the rebel cells, the force that shapes the government to come. All by being in the right place at the right time with a radio signal and a dream.

Rules

  • Standard rules apply.


How do the RP mechanics work?

Basically, I give you a set of news stories on the happenings of the galaxy, whether political, military, or economic. It's your job to spin these stories to the resistance at large, giving -- or breaking, their resolve to fight. I will track the results of your news and future stories given to you will reflect what you told the resistance. You are a major force in the resistance, for news, for intelligence, and most importantly, for hope.

Character Sheet


Place this sheet in the OOC section, and move it to the characters section when approved.

[center][h1]Name[/h1]
[img]Your Appearance[/img]
[/center]
[b]Speciality[/b]
Your specialty here

[b]Origin[/b]
Your backstory here.

[b]Species[/b]
If human, just put human. Else, this is a classic sci-fi galaxy, give us general info about your species.


It's purposely a fairly short character sheet. Your background isn't as important as what you do on the radio.

Woah, hold up! What is this galactic government?

Consider the traditional components of the Galactic Empire from Star Wars. Remove the force, and you've got the empire you face. Mix this with the ruthlessness of the Universal Union from Half Life 2, and you have the resolve of the empire you face. Sector Admirals destroy planets for the kick of it. Entire populations are enslaved. Concentration camps are old news. In this climate comes your rebellion, the rebellion your radio encourages.

The IC is open! Of course, we're still accepting new characters, but for now, the accepted characters can greet each other, prepare their first radio show, etc.

EDIT: As a general rule, please have at least 2 paragraphs a post.

This seems really cool. Might make a character (Or even a duo of characters if the rules allow it) at some point. :3

I did an IC. Hope it's a good enough introduction/starter. . . ~question mark~ I noticed the IC been up for a couple hours and no one posted so, I thought I could be the . . .brave one... and try to post an IC to get everyone started.

And here's my character. Probably a bit over the top, but I'm pretty sure she'd still fit in rather comfortably:

I'm afraid I'm going to have to deny this for now. My main points of contention are the arm cannon, abuse backstory, advertisement for the radio (if there was an advertisement the Empire would clamp down on it), and overall crazy demeanor that would likely not see them placed on an important position such as the main radio.

Understood.

I'll still keep an eye on this, and maybe try my hand at a character again in the future.

After carefully weighing my options and trying to get my shit together, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to drop. I really wanted to do this, but in order to try and combat some of my commitment issues (yes, I have RP commitment issues. It's pathetic.) I'm gonna have to limit the amount that I join. I'm really sorry.

@popecrunch Sorry, I haven't replied or tried to interact with you. I'm waiting till @catchamber posts then the rp can start moving on.

Also, hoping more people join because @WrongEndoftheRainbow seeming to have really good news cast ideas already. I feel like he has something in store for us.
