Oh thanks for clarifying that too, Ryver! I've edited my CS now with his new ability. Hopefully that should be okay, though I can draw out more limitations or replace it again if need be, haha! :)

Good night, everyone!

Alright I guess that works. I was fine with the dice-roll based luck since it was gambling and that's greedy, but straight up jinxing seems less greed oriented or must just luck oriented

Mmm. If there's a way I could still toss gambling (and chance) into jinxing it to make it much more greed (or even money)-oriented, I'll totally shoot for that. I'm mostly just worried about giving him something that could be OP or otherwise cumbersome, but I'm down for changing anything about the character to get him to fit the role. The PMing thing you mentioned earlier, I wouldn't mind doing that if you don't though! I'm sure we can get something to work.

Otherwise, I think there's some online dice rolling site or app I could use (if you trust me XD), if you prefer I go back to the original power to help monitor the result. Or if it seems to be too many good/bad rolls in a roll, I can mention it here and round to 3/4 accordingly? Haha. And I'll figure out something for the number of rolls per round too... I think I could get something concrete down in a couple of days. I mostly just wanted to chuck up my CS before someone else went after Greed lol.

I just hope this little setback doesn't scare you off from taking me in, hahaha. ^^;

I'll handle the dice rolling, I can find a dice generator easily, so here's how we'll do it. Lets say every day, I'll roll the dice 10 times and PM you the results, then from those 10 rolls you choose the specific rolls you want to use for each action involving the dice.

Hii, it's been ages since I've roleplayed but a friend of mine persuaded me to (hopefully if you accept me or my dreams and hopes are lost q.q) start again. Your roleplay caught my eye and at the very least I'm happy I could attempt to make a character if anything~ I'll probably edit a few things later. This is it for now.

I like this character, and I think the "steal" ability is the best power to use. I also like the fact that envy is somewhat of a slave to sloth. Of course for someone so skilled without having to even try, it makes sense that she would be a "role model' of sorts for envy. Anyways, I like the character over, so that leave gluttony and lust left with no application.

Yaaay ^>^ That's fine with me. Thank you for accepting. My friend should also be writing up one for Gluttony ;)

Cool, meaning that lust is still the only one that has yet to be tackled. I also like how everyone is a guy, making sloth (unless lust or gluttony turn in female apps) the only female amongst the group, which leads me to something else.

Being a character driven RP, what would this RP be without the relationships between the characters involved? By relationship I don't mean romantic (Though that will of course be open for people who wish to pursue it), so I want you guys to start thinking up the group dynamics and such. Obviously sloth is the leader, and most characters applied have established some type of relationship or view of sloth, setting up the dynamic between her and the others, but I want you guys to think and maybe discuss how your character would interact with the other characters.

Cool with this we should have all 7, and then we wait another day to see if we get competition for any roles, then move on to the main event.

Name: Harold "Harry" North

Title: Gluttony

Age: 20

Gender Male

Appearance:


Personality: Harold is essentially what people would call an "asshole". His air of superiority puts him at odds with many people, and his logical approach to things often causes people to consider if he has a heart at all. While most assume that his personality makes him the bane of any sort of cooperative activity, his intrinsic nature shows when he is given a task to complete; Harold is almost unstoppable when it comes to doing crucial tasks. When such an objective is presented to him he even makes allowances to his personality, sympathising with people's difficulties and troubles because that is the most logical thing to do. From these experiences some guess that Harold isn't so much a socially inept person but a man with a paradoxical personality; but its much easier to call him an asshole. He does pay the proper respect to Sloth though, considering she's technically his superior.

Abilities: Harold has a keen sense of management which allows him to handle things like money very well. As well as that, he's somewhat proficient with firearms. After all, coming from a rich family comes with its benefits.

Power: Harold is capable of memory absorption, where he establishes a link between him and his target through which he drains his opponent's memories and thus their sense of self. Harold can access these memories himself after he has drained them. Also, the closer he is to a target the faster the memory drain becomes; five months worth of memories can be drained within ten seconds if he is in bodily contact with his target.

Whilst he is able to completely incapacitate somebody on a mental level, the drained memories cause a special type of conflict within his own brain; the process is addictive and somewhat detrimental. The more memories he consumes, the greater his sense of euphoria. After a certain point this euphoria turns into a form of ecstacy, where the barriers separating Harold's memories and the stolen memories break down. This causes a severe loss in terms of his grasp on reality, causing him to hallucinate his target's memories as if they were happening again right in front of him.

How you joined the Sinners: Meeting Sloth was a sort of formal meeting, where arrangements were being made for Harold to be a source of income for the Sinners. Considering the vast fortune his family possessed, it was very easy for him to embezzle from his own family. The exact reason as to why he decided to fund the Sinners and thus join them is somewhat ambiguous; at times he makes it seem like he's there simply to boost his ego as a "bad boy", whilst at other times he makes it seem like it's just a game, where he causes chaos by funding a criminal gang when he knows he wouldn't logically approve of it. He's a bit of a strange one, to be honest.

Personal Arc: Second heir to a vast fortune built up by trading stocks, Harold was born into a very comfortable life style where he could have anything he wanted. Having been educated in a very high-class private school, Harold technically has enough qualifications to easily obtain any job or position he wanted. However, it was this very life style which convinced him it wasn't meant to be his; he felt it was unfair for the world to give him everything when he hadn't even tried to obtain it. Whilst many hunger for an easy life with tons of money, Harold hungers for something with a little more meaning than that. Thus, he became more and more involved in the underground world where criminals and thieves formed connections and rivalries; it was just the sort of environment he was interested in. Technically speaking, it was only a matter of time before he found the Sinners, and seeing such a small group with such large ambitions, Harold found himself oddly at peace for once. That was when he arranged to meet Sloth, the creator of the Sinners.

I actually find this to be a very unique power that fits into gluttony. While most would just go for "consume anything and everything" ability, you chose memories instead. This is probably the most unique interpretation of a sin that we've had so far, and I love it.

Thanks! Its been an extremely long while since I used the RPG or did any roleplaying at all, so I'm glad that I've hit the ground running. I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes when it finally kicks off.

Ash and Harry sound really killer. I like both of them a ton too. :D

I thought it'd be cool if Angel looked to Dresdin and Harry for some gun chatter, since I'm considering having Angel start out more so defensive than offensive, but wants to get there. He has a couple of push daggers for when things get close and personal, but nothing like cool choreography or a good grip on guns haha! Plus he and Harry could talk money, whether that'd lead to some positive bonds or antagonism. (It's cool since perhaps Angel's banned from touching it since he might steal it all from himself. XD)

Also I've mentioned before, Angel with Joni/Wrath could be interesting too, since he has facial numbness and Angel relies a lot on both body language and expression to tell what others are thinking or planning. As for Ash, maybe Angel was the one who sold him the sedatives? Maybe? (Unless you have the backstory behind that mapped out already haha.) Might be interesting to see a couple of characters have some ties before joining the Sinners. Just some thoughts haha!

Angel's a bit of a platonic flirt as well, so I look forward to seeing him chat up Sloth and hopefully the upcoming Lust too.

These just popped into my head for general interactions/relations for Angel at least, but I'm up for anything. :)

I don't have anything for the sedatives Rex :P
Wasn't really that important, maybe like the mother was a pharmacist or something but having Angel and Ash as acquaintances sounds good. Maybe Ash gets all defensive when Angel tries anything on Sloth xD. I think my relationship with Gluttony will be one where Ash is extremely weary of him and always watching him due to his 'air of superiority' thus he is always watching him to see whether he'll cross the line, can relate to Wrath in a sense that they both seem to have bad times with their parents (right? :d ) and with Pride is where his curiosity somewhat lies, although he doesn't pry too much.

So based on what I've read, this is basically the relationship status of Sloth to each of the other members so far.

Sloth to Envy: While she doesn't think of him as a slave, she does find herself taking advantage of his severe loyalty, usually having him either give her foot massages or other such activities while she's either working on relaxing.

Sloth to Greed: Sloth views Greed as an asset and protege of sorts. She often finds herself using Greed's extensive druggie network he's established with his sales to get whatever information she deems is necessary, while also being the one to teach Greed how to actually fight and other gang related things...That is when she's not sleeping, working, or having Envy pamper her. When it comes to his flirty nature, she didn't mind it, in fact she found it somewhat flattering, but she never showed that she enjoyed it to Greed, at least not in front of the others.

Sloth to Wrath: Sloth has always viewed Wrath as two things, a superficial pity case hiding a nuclear bomb. She was fully aware of his capabilities to explode, and whenever he was around she felt something waiting underneath his "non-threatening" exterior, and whenever this bomb would explode, she would make sure that she was not in it's blast radius and that all her enemies were.

Sloth to Gluttony: She doesn't think that Gluttony is a threat, but that's as far as her read on him has "guaranteed." She can't make heads or tails of why he would exactly fund them and assist them, but hell having access to such a large fund when the gang was still fairly new and small was definitely a plus, so as long as she knew that he was on their side, she was fine with him.

Sloth to Pride: Sloth doesn't "like" having Pride around, but she believes he's the best fit for the role in terms of personality and ability. Overall, terrible guy but he's useful to her, so she's willing to use him.
