While we wait for the rest of the characters/more RPers is there anything I should go over whether it be IC or OOC?

Like in-universe lore I should cover or some OOC rules/expectations that are unclear?

I'm currently still alive, but that's subject to change.

I do have one lore question, mostly just curious. Is there a specific reasons men aren't trained as M.A/I.Ds? Other than the fact that creating an acronym for "butler" is kinda hard.

@Jarl Coolgruuf

Good question, the origins of M.A/I.D stem back far into the past (over three thousand years actually and that was long before they would ever be known as what they are now). For most of their history they operated more-so as assassins and information gatherers. This was because women would usually not be registered/expected to be a threat - let alone one bound in servitude.

Without getting into much spoilers, the Shadow Queen is an outside force that initiated a bloody civil war within the organization (which had no formalized name at the time). This conflict was actually fought mostly by men. This occurred around 2 B.C and then her (and the remaining female servants) largely went unaccounted for up until the year 1111 A.D when Henry the Fifth was crowned the Holy Roman Emperor and somehow, someway, the Shadow Queen found her way into his presence and saw her female servants employed by him (which made them loyal to the English Crown up until after WW2 where alleged reports of them defecting to the Nazis exist).

That might just seemed like an explanation for a whole lot of nothing. What I am trying to get across is that the Shadow Queen has always employed females for hundreds and hundreds of years. She is a traditionalist who believes that women are to be housekeepers and care for children. However, she also believes that women under the guise of loyalty and control can also be very dangerous and serve to further her own agenda.

The current group of M.A/I.D are by far the most combat trained and ready individuals in the history of the organization. Previously, they were about 10% assassin and spy with the rest being domestic servants. The Shadow Queen believes women make the best domestic servants, but is also turning them to a more combative role because the final phase of her plan is about to begin due to the technology being ready.

Just to sum up that mess of text - it is that way because the Shadow Queen has "traditional values."

Okay, now that we have three characters it's time to start considering when to start. I would like to have a few more players (and will keep shilling to get some) but if it comes down to it would you guys be okay starting small and building up?

Ideally I’d like at least one more peep in our squad, but personally I probably wouldn’t mind starting as is.

I will be making a character myself but I don't like to count myself considering I try to not get into the spotlight when GMing.

Update on my app, since I feel as though I owe you all one.

...

I'm almost finished with my app, but I may have underestimated how much time it would take to complete it. I only just finished the personality last night, and right now I'm down to the final paragraph of the bio. Haven't got round to writing down all the equipment that my M.A/I.D. would have yet, but I fully remember everything I wanted her to have from a while back.

There are a things that I had, and still may have to go over with @SadistPoet, but I can tell you a few things about my M.A/I.D.: Her name is Zahava Gollancz, she is of Israeli descent, and she has a whole bunch of cybernetic equipment on her person.

She's also more than capable of giving Molly a hand in the kitchen if need be :]

Alright, our next character is done we just have to wait for it to be posted.

I will write the dossiers tomorrow, finish my character, and hopefully post the start of the RP.

So, I will leave this RP open for people to join with the possibility of adding more squads/squad members. I will do my best to make this RP great for all of you, so let's work together to make this something special.

Thank you for your great characters so far

Alright! I will write up all the necessary stuff before hand and have the RP up by tonight.

@Bartimaeus (Ruxie) has been appointed squad leader. This means a few things:

1.) Ruxie will be held accountable for mission failure.

2.) They will be the one to give orders to the squad in combat scenarios.

3.) Finally, they will give broad orders at the start of investigations. It will be up to the individual to decide how they want to go about tasks.

I am very excited to start. I think we should try to help Bartimaus with tactical decisions OOC, or at least give them some people to bounce off of and talk about. That way Ruxie can be cool and smart.

Molly: "As promised, I'm gon' learn you the ways of my kinfolk, Sha. But by the end of this you will know pain, you will know the meaning of suffering, you'll shake hands with the Reaper but I'll pull you back down here until he has has my permission to cart you off."

Zahava, terrified: "I thought you said you were going to teach me how to cook!"

Molly: "I did indeed. Now, let's get down to bidness."
