The famous archaeologist and noted acquirer of rare antiquities has traveled the world in search of valuable artifacts, uncovering danger at every turn. However, at 60 years of age, Dr. Jones has decided to hang up the whip and fedora. Now happily married, and with added responsibilities as an associate dean at Marshall College, Indy's treasure hunting days are behind him. Unfortunately for Dr. Jones, the U.S. government seems rather uninterested in his so-called retirement and is in need of his assistance once again. It is 1959, the height of the Cold War, and intelligence reports suggest that the Soviet Union is in search of an unspeakably powerful artifact, an artifact believed to be an object of mythology rather than history. The Russians intend on using it's power to fuel a devastating super weapon, and it must not fall into their hands. Dr. Jones has assembled an elite team of treasure hunters, comprised of his former students and associates, to find this artifact before the Russians do. You have been asked to join this team and complete this mission. Welcome to the Raiders. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ This is an RP inspired by Indiana Jones, the only man who should ever wear a fedora. The tone of the RP will be pretty much identical to the Indy movies so there's really no need to take anything too seriously. Always remember, these are the movies where a guy jumps out of a plane and inflates a rubber raft in mid-air. Standard casual RP rules apply, which means proper spelling, grammar and punctuation?! [hider=Character Sheet]Insert a photograph at the top of your character sheet. Try not to use any hand-drawn or anime style images. Use a real photo of an actor or actress that would play your character in a movie. Anime and Indiana Jones don't really mix. At all. [b]Name:[/b] [b]Age:[/b] [b]Gender:[/b] [b]Nationality:[/b] [b]Height:[/b] [b]Weight:[/b] [b]Profession:[/b] Are you an archaeologist? An investigative journalist? A soldier? Try to fill a role on the team that is unique. [b]Strengths:[/b] What specific skills does your character bring to the table? I find that making these skills as specific as possible makes a character that much more memorable. Are you a speaker of five languages? A master of disguise? An expert vodka drinker? Again, try to have skills that set your character apart. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] The most important aspect of any character. What can your enemies exploit to get the best of you? [b]Personality:[/b] A few sentences describing your character's general demeanor and outlook on life. [b]Biography:[/b] A brief summary of your character's history. Be sure to include how they came to know Indiana Jones. Maybe you were a top student in one of his classes, a rival treasure hunter who turned into an ally, a small Asian boy who tried to pick his pocket and got caught. I'm sure you'll come up with something.[/hider] [b]THE RAIDERS[/b] John Addison - ZeusTheMoose Kyle Snow - Avanhelsing Carmilla Hollstein - Konica Casey Greene - Polyphemus Alexander Van Helsing - 22xander
