It is certainly not 'optimal', but it *is* doable, depending on what you want to do with it. You could go swords or valor bard and play them more like a warrior with some magical ability

@alexfangtalon I was gonna mention it but I thought it was intentional...
You should start, I'm spending most of tonight studying for my exam tomorrow, so I wont be able to post until late tomorrow
@MissCapnCrunch So I'd like there to be a running joke that whenever someone says "Riley", both Rileys automatically respond "Yes?" no matter what the context. Whether it be during practice, in a classroom, or even the bathroom (perhaps this may be the only safe space).
put up the WIP of my character


Name:
Riley Kensington

Alias in the DgtWld:
Maverick

Age:
22
Corrector Appearance:


Weapon of Choice and Fighting Style:
Swords and melee weapons

Riley uses a versatile fighting style that is primarily based around close combat with melee weapons. His Corrector Avatar combines a decent amount of dexterity with high physical strength and above agerage constitution. With no ranged attacks, he relies on being able to quickly close the gap between himself and his foes to engage in melee combat, where his high-damage saber and tough combat armor excel. Currently in the works for upgrades is a system that allows Riley to change his saber into different melee weapons, or a ranged component for his companion app, though at current he uses a long bladed saber with a two handed hilt.

In his spare time, Riley has managed to code and sneak himself a small companion app that runs alongside his Avatar. Nicknamed 'Spark', Riley's companion app is no bigger than a baseball, and generally hovers around his shoulder when not in combat. Spark serves as a basic interfacing unit, allowing Riley and his teammates to interact with the DgtWld around them and modify small bits if necessary- IE unlock/open doors, make lights. Spark currently has no means of attack other than loudly warning its companions that an enemy is approaching.

Cell Phone:

Music:
Grape Soda - Snail's House
Personality:
Perceptive, Streetwise, Easygoing, and Lazy

Hometown: London, England

Major: Criminal Justice and Sociology minor

Background:
The youngest child of two, Riley is the son of police officer and schoolteacher. His childhood was relatively mundane, consisting of getting middling to above average grades in school, and spending his time either playing outside with friends or playing computer games. Riley very much followed the trail of his older sister, doing or becoming interested in many of the things that she was. As his sister was rather sickly, and was often physically weak, Riley developed a strong, almost symbiotic relationship with his sister, the two of them sharing role of mutual caretaker as their father worked late at the department and his mother began prepping for a career as a university professor.

In high school, Riley scored relatively high marks despite his lax attitude. He adapted well as newer technologies started appearing- the DgtWld and the widespread use of phones and MChips. These newer technologies, coupled with Riley's progressive attitude and go-with-the-flow nature actually made it easier for Riley to excel in his classes and while still slacking off and helped propel him to the top tiers of his class. Stress began building for Riley near the end of high school, when his sister's health began getting increasingly worse, and his family began struggling to pay for both school and medical costs.

Upon graduating high school, Riley prepared to go to the University of London where his sister also attended school, majoring in Criminal Justice and sociology- two fairly similar fields. He planned on going into Law School afterwards- the higher income of a lawyer would help his family pay for his sister's increasingly expensive medical bills. He also took an interest in Computer Science classes, though lacked the work ethic to commit to a major or minor in the field and as a result dropped the subject.

After his first few weeks at University, Riley was contacted by Gvn and recruited into a group known as "The Correctors". Taking the job with a devil-may-care attitude, was surprised to find how much he enjoyed the career- it felt like playing a video game at times, and best of all- it paid for his college tuition, and would help pay for his sister's medical bills. Riley made a good fit as a corrector, and his concentration in the Criminal Justice field gave him an edge in apprehending and understanding those who would abuse the DgtWld for criminal purposes.

Now having spent several years as a Corrector, Riley is finally getting in the swing of being able to juggle his school and social life along with work and designated free time. His work as a Corrector has also resparked his interest in computers and technology- though at the caution of his teammates, keeps the interest low key and hidden. The bulk of his income as a corrector being squirreled away to help pay for his sister's hospital expenses and while her sickness is taking a toll on their family both financially and emotionally, Riley maintains a carefree persona when interacting with others.
Will begin developing something tonight

xcuse me?


This made me giggle

or have some sort of pro support


Looks at Sara and all of her sponsors




Anyway, let me know if there are edits needed to make.

I would've thought it makes more sense to vote ooc, because the team captain would probably have been the one organizing practices/try-outs

Otherwise, I'd be fine with Riley being the team captain unless MissCap's Riley wants to be team captain - my Riley's work ethic is a bit lacking to be team captain
We can just have the last remaining spot be an npc, and when an actual player joins just have the npc be put on the bench?

Btw, whose gonna be team captain?
