@BluetheElf@LeonVon@Mae@onestorytomany Edited the OP. Added a new race.

[Kelewen]

Name: Melanie Edwards
Nickname: Mel
Race: Human



Planet: Earth

Job: Computer Programmer

Skills:

1 - Tech geek.
2 - Deer hunting.

Background: Mel grew up in farm country, Pennsylvania, but always had an aptitude for math and a general curiosity about how things worked. While her brother and sister were at social events, introverted Melanie would spend her free time solving logic puzzles or tinkering with the family computer. However, like many in rural PA, she learned to deer hunt from her father and quite enjoyed the yearly ritual of stalking the woods along side her father and older brother in the first week of December. She even had her picture featured in the local paper one year alongside her trophy buck. In college, she met a man named Jeffrey, her opposite in many ways, but is engaged to be married to him next year.

Personality: Introverted. Determined. Has trouble letting a problem alone until it has been solved. (Even then, there might be a better way to solve it.)

Notes: Nearsighted. Sucker for cute and fuzzy pets.

Name : Bluestar Talronian

Nickname : Blue

Race : Sha'rkoloc

Apprentice:
Just without the sword, and his clothing a bit more... torn, and short, sharp claws.

Name of the planet they come from ( Remember. The races don't know each other and don't know about any other races. They are non-space fairing races ) : Paradenchia, a mainly forest, jungle, and seasonal desert planet.

Job on their planet : Adventurer/Hunter

Skills (they have to be consistent to their job. A medic will not have the skill to shoot with a sniper rifle as one that does that for a living. 3 Skills Max. 2 Skills if you want a reward later in the RP ) : Battle/Weapon usage and some limited skills with computer tech. (Will not understand anything past 1990 when it comes to computer stuff)

Background story ( who are they ? ) : Bluestar was raised like many Sharies (my new nickname for his species), in a large male group, watched only by his many fathers. He was taught to play and hunt, being given many toys to entertain himself, and being set loose with animals, some being similar to chickens and small forest animals on earth, soon leaning to catch, kill, and eat them. As a Sharie, his childhood of peace and fun ended when he became a teenager, where he was sent away as new free spirit, living in the hot jungle for a whole year, eating everything he could, before ending up in the city, where he made his living hunting and killing, as well as gather artifacts and items for the much more docile females. Like many, he gained his right to breed, and spent most of his free time planting the seeds of his children into every willing and capable female he could find. Bluestar saw a bright light in his future... but then it all went black, and now he was in... some place he swore he did not remember.

Personality : Bluestar is one of those you'd never expect to be friendly. To other Sha'rkoloc, he's quite and outgoing, friendly, and helpful person, willing to even drag his kill over and give it to the person he's talking to, and then resume his conversation. However, if threatened, mostly by another sentient being outside of his species, he will quickly change. His ears will bend back, he will snarl and growl, and he will expose his teeth in an attempt to drive away the hostile other. If he or she does not back away, he probably will attack, mostly to defend himself or another. However, if you even hurt someone he likes, he will relentlessly hunt you down, catch you, and then eat your limbs in front of you before killing you. He tends to not trust outsiders, so the best way to get to know this guy is be another Sha'rkoloc like him.

Notes about the character ( things about the story. Like a tattoo or a pendant from the character's grandmother ( etc ). Things like that ) : Eye scar from a Dyrian, a huge wolf/dragon thing the size of a longhorn bull.

@BluetheElf@Kelewen Both of them accepted. Thank you ! Move'em over. Tomorrow I'll make my own CS.

Bump

[BluetheElf]

We need more players, definitely.

[Ashevelendar]

@BluetheElf Yes we do. I'll try to advertise but can you please do the same ? :D

[Ashevelendar]

bump

[BluetheElf]

@Ashevelendar Hmm... not used to advertising... but I might do some.

[Kelewen]

Is 3 too few to play the game? I don't mind doubling up if that helps. :)

[Ashevelendar]

@Kelewen Not at all. If we RP , more people will come ^_^

[Kelewen]

@Ashevelendar, do you have a general tech level in mind for the Galan'ter?

[Ashevelendar]

@Kelewen All races have the same technological level but they are different in their way of making it.

Example : Sempers will probably have biological tech ( like bio-metal and stuff ) , when Humans would have our kind of technology.

Did I answered your question ?

[Kelewen]

Yep! So... either in case Melanie doesn't survive very long, or you just don't mind two characters...

Name: Gerlach Watoga
Nickname: N/A
Race: Galan'ter



Planet: The very cold and snowy planet of Akran

Job: Doctor

Skills:

1 - Medicine & wound treatment
2 - Astronomy
3 - Investigation

Background story: Gerlach comes from a line of doctors... 4 generations now, all the way back to his great grandfather who was a surgeon during the Soergel War. Gerlach, however, dreamed of becoming an astronomer, or maybe even an astronaut. He loves the night sky and the stars. And despite some mocking from his friends and his sister, believes strongly in alien life, often spending hours reading scoffed-at 'conspiracy theories' about alien abductions.

Under pressure from his father, he agreed to study medicine and just recently graduated from his medical studies in the city. But during that time, he kept up his amateur astronomy studies and his hobby of researching reported alien encounters. And when time and opportunity could be found, he would even visit the sites where these encounters had supposedly occurred, becoming ever more convinced that aliens were indeed real and had visited Akran.

Personality: Friendly. Patient. Daydreamer. Avoids conflict with others.

Notes: Loves nighttime

[Ashevelendar]

@Kelewen I don't mind at all two characters :) So...I think I'll make an IC post today and see how it goes. If this doesn't work I already made a new RP if you're interested just say so ^_^

He's accepted.

PS : Mention me in posts please.

[BluetheElf]

Oooh! The IC is up! Excitement begins! How long will it be before Bluestar eats everyone out of desperation? Let's find out!

[Ashevelendar]

@BluetheElf You seem to have forgotten two things on your post.

1. You didn't add the Stats and Inventory.

2. No one knows anything about other races/aliens. Like us humans they don't know about any other race besides us. We can speculate that aliens exist but we don't know how they look , what they are called etc.

@Kelewen Really nice posts. I like how you wrote them :)

Also. For both of you. Mention people in your posts.

[Kelewen]

@Ashevelendar Question about the stats... do we just adjust them as we see reasonable? Or will you be saying something like 'subtract a point from Melanie's food'?

I'm off to work... not sure if I'll be able to get in an IC reply before tomorrow.

[Ashevelendar]

@Kelewen Each post we write will remove 1 point from Food / Water Gauge.

When events happen ( or we initiate them ) I'll write things like " Melanie rolled a 10. Add x points to Health. If Health is 10 already the points will be added towards " X stat ".

Special events will happen as we initiate actions. Like...searching for food or for water or scouting.
