Welcome to Get Rich Quick, an RP where we'll play as a plucky group of bastard bank (and other areas of wealth,) robbers, in a semi-realistic, but still slightly humorous, modern heisting RP!


The Prompt


Welcome to Get Rich Quick. You, whoever you are, are someone who the system didn't give a shit about. You were busting your ass working three jobs and earning nothing, whilst your boss(es) sat on their asses and earned five times what you earned in a week in a day. Or perhaps that's not you. Maybe you're just someone who didn't want to bust their asses in the system, or you're a greedy fucker who wants more cash. Point is, the gates are open. Time to Get Rich Quick.

If the above didn't explain it, this is a heisting RP, where characters will be taking over a group of (initially,) small time crooks who clean out jewellery stores and cash exchange points, into full on bank and casino robbers. Take it stealthy, or burst in guns blazing. Only rule? Don't touch anything that doesn't sell. Who's in?


What Can We Expect?


This'll be a more realistic than silly RP, but that doesn't mean you can't have fun! We'll be taking the roles of various members of a heisting group, both as they become the terror of New York City via robberies, and as their downtime in an increasingly money-filled safehouse, chilling out, smoking cigars, and watching their exploits on the box.

Most of the action will be based around the various heists of course. The crew will start off doing simple, almost petty crime, such as looting jewellery stores and ripping off small-time gangs, but as time goes on, they'll end up being able to move around the country, go after more lucrative contracts, and hopefully hit the crown jewel of heisting: Las Vegas.


What Characters Can I Make?


Pretty much anyone! Whilst the group leader is my character, and the hacker and getaway drivers are NPCs under my control, you can play anything from a mob hitman who took an unlikey career turn, to a gang member tired of making shitty cash, to an overworked Joe who finally gave up the job that was killing him and now wants to make some real money. The gang is an equal opportunities one as well- men, women, all ethnicities are all welcome!

I have two character concepts in mind: a high school valedictorian who, despite having so many scholarships, couldn't get into his dream university and decided to make the money on his own terms, or a spoiled son of a rich family, possibly a crime family, who wishes to live a thrill-seeking, hollywood life.

Either would be fine- what roles would they have in the crew?

@Lady Selune

The valedictorian would most definitely serve a tactician sort of role, and will shine when any book smarts are needed. In the future, he could even serve as a tech expert after finding his real dream school, the University of Heisting, and majoring in Criminal Science.

The rich kid is more of a... loose cannon. The guy who'd go in guns blazing and doing the craziest of thinga. Not that he would be a big detriment to the team, as I plan to avoid doing things reckless enough to screw everyone over. As far as his established role comes, that is something I would have to think over on. His money could be an asset for the crew in future heists, and if we go with him being in a crime family, we could also get some jobs from them, if appropriate.

Hmm... Well, really anyone is welcome. I believe we've already got a muscle in the works, but another intimidation, a dedicated ghost/infiltrator, or someone with police connections is what shouts it for me, or someone who's not afraid to show his or her face, so that they don't raise suspicion.

Those are just the ones that jump at me.

@Lady Selune how about "the new promising recruit" that seems eager and pretty good at any part they need him at (save piloting or something really special)

@Drazah Shaping up nicely, but some pointers:
- Aliases traditionally are alternate names for ID purposes, so he'd also need a surname.
- Distinctive featuress are things that the public know him for- nobody but the other heisters are aware how much of a new hand to heisting he is.
- Whilst later on we might be able to afford snazzy gear like the Ballista, it's more likely that a kid like that would be using something like a Mauser M03
- A little description of what his role is, in the vein of Adrian's, would be nice.

Other than that, looking good!

@Lady Selune The couple hundred difference between the Mauser M03 and the ballista isn't significant enough for me to have the other one... It is a simple highway gas station robbery away... No difference. As for everything else, Take a look.

@Bluetommy2

I'm not seeing anything wrong with him, so that's a thumbs up from me.

@Drazah Can we get a bit more writing? Then he's good.
