My name is Paradoxial. I mainly focus on creating original roleplays, though I do love participating in others!

@Treue I could definitely have your vehicle as my sort of "home base" where I keep more tools and stuff, but there needs to be space in the back (if you've ever played the mad max game think of chumbuckets area). Of course, I'm not going to be exclusively working on one car I'll presumably be jumping frequently to whichever car needs repairs the most.
Definitely interested. I was thinking I would play a support mechanic character, doesnt have his own car but instead just jumps from car to car, climbing all over them and making repairs to whichever one needs them most. In place of a car he has special custom made tools
Basically the idea is that after the nuclear apocalypse, the world became a deserted wasteland and after oil ran out, people turned to coal and started using armored and weaponized trains to get from place to place. The biggest civilizations are boom towns where fresh mineral deposits have been found. Cars are still a thing, but are mostly just used by raiders to gang up on civilian trains and such. The two ways this could go Is a bunch of scavengers finding a train, fixing it up and upgrading while traveling across the country to take on the resident warlord in the area. On the other hand, it could be a lone group of raiders each with separate cars who Chase down mineral trains and such. I'll make an OOC if I get some interest.
Okay so instead of the whole antisocial thing I changed it to this:

Detached: when he left his department, Leroy lost his family, his friends and everyone he had known in his whole life. He stopped seeing people as people, instead his broken mind Only seeing the creatures around him as tools only useful for continuing the quest. If any opportunity arises to continue his quest he will take it, no matter what must be sacrificed.

Also I'm bumping up his age by a couple years and fleshing out his bio more, to go more in deatail about him time alone as a scavenger. Sound good?
I'll see if I can rework it again.
Soooooo uh am I accepted? Just wondering since I changed my CS somewhat.
Interested! If you can get a couple more people I'd love to be the mechanic.
@Paradoxial I don't see why Leroy would be "Feral", crazed maybe but its not like he was born in the wild with no one to raise him. It seems much more logical by your Bio that he simply became obsessive of his work to the point of display some anti-social behaviors but I find calling him "Feral" is a bit too much of a stretch.

As for your equipment, I have an issue with the bombs and the gas mask. What goes into the bombs? How does he get the containers? Overall I'm not convinced he would be able to constantly obtain the parts and things; I would recommend that he uses a poisoned blowpipe or some form of poisoned blade (Skaven Weeping Blades from Warhammer Fantasy come to mind), I say that would make more sense than use of bombs. I'm also curious as to where he would get a functioning gas mask from the old world. The leather coat I can see where it would come from, but a gas mask? My suggestion is that Leory has a Plague Doctor bird mask filled with his own herbs that sort of act like a gas mask instead, I feel like that really fits his character.

Second thought, I think that a Plague Doctor/Alchemist/Potioneer/Poisoner theme works perfectly for him but that's just my opinion.

@MonsieurShade Saw this and I immediately thought of Jak for some reason



I actually was going for a plague doctor esque thing, but I can see your points. I changed some things around see if it's good.
Sorry in advance if this isn't good, I'm fairly new to roleplay.

| NAME |
Leroy Omerson

| DEPARTMENT |
Pharmaceuticals, currently loner

| AGE |
31


| TRAITS | -
  • Absent Minded - because his mind is completely filled with thoughts of his quest, he frequently forgets to eat, sleep and drink unless reminded or becoming almost too weak to continue. Instead of doing these things he relentlessly pushes onward, causing his body to become hardened and have great stamina.
  • Single minded - after the nightmares and dreams entered his life, he quickly lost all other goals and values except for making the potion. He finds anything that doesn't continue his quest to be a waste of time and energy.
  • Antisocial - due to spending most of his life alone as a scavenger, he has become extremely antisocial and vicious, and has no qualms about violence or death. He is also very mistrusting and sees people as rarely more than an ends to a mean.
  • Medically Trained - despite it being a decade since he left the confines of the infirmary, Leroy has still managed to keep the knowledge of medicine and herbs in his shattered mind. He can use common chemicals and materials to craft basic bandages and medicines. Also because of his need to craft his potion, he has become proficient at brewing liquid and drafts.


| EQUIPMENT | -
  • Poisoned Hunting Knife and Shivs - a gift from his parents, he keeps the long hunting blade constantly wet with a homemade venom. He also has a couple of rough shivs that he uses if he needs range.
  • "Holy Journal" - small leather bound journal where he keeps all of his notes about herbs, medicine and potion. Also has his recipe for making the bombs.
  • Potion of Infite Power - this potion is the culmination of years of work. Leroy believes that upon finishing this potion, he will become the most powerful person in the entire store. He will become a god. As of now, the potion is just a finely polished glass bottle, filled with a dark green liquid of unknown origin. The bottle is corked and is strung around his neck. It is very far from completion.
  • heavy leather coat - a durable, heavy leather coat that covers most of his upper body. It is good protection against melee attacks but won't come close to stoppingq bullet or a sharp blade.
  • Crow Mask - as one of the last efforts to ward off the nightmares, Leroy fashioned a wooden/ metal crow mask, which he keeps constantly stuffed with herbs and spices in the beak. Unfortunately like all his other attempts, this to failed.


| BIOGRAPHY |
Leroy cant remember a time where the dreams and voices haven't plagued him day and night. He can't remember his childhood in the pharmacy, raised by loving parents and mastering chemical science. All he remembers is the voice that appeared in head one night. "You are made for more than this" it whispered to him. " you are made to make the potion. The potion will give you infinite power, strong enough to take on anyone." It continued whispering to him throughout the night, and to his horror it continued the next day. His friends noticed him becoming less friendly, spending days upon days in his laboratory without food or water. He was seen stumbling through the grounds of the pharmacy, muttering to himself with dark rings under his eyes. The next night something finally cracked within Leroy. He crawled around the house, stealing whatever could fit into his backpack, before escaping from the pharmacy and never looking back. Now Leroy relentlessly wanders across the land, ever in search of the ingredients to make his potion and become a god.
Oh geez! Completely forgot about this RP honestly got busy with school. I'll make a CS tonight if you want another person.
