RhineQueen Queen of the Rhine

Member Seen 5 yrs ago

Name: Imogen Klein-Hollister
Age: 24
Sex: Female

Background: Her birth parents fell to the dangers of the world early in life and she was adopted by her fathers, a talented airship mechanic, Elliott Hollister and a bar owner, Dexter Klein. Though she took after her more outgoing, bartender father, Dexter in personality, Elliott taught her most of what she knows. She worked with him in his dockyard for most of her youth, but always wanted something more, and was struck with a strong sense of ennui. She loved hearing stories of the pilot's adventures and would listen to them for hours while Elliott worked on their ships, quickly becoming enamoured with stories of high skies adventure and tails of the son of Gabriel and his ship, the Magnificent. She very soon began working for her father when she was of age, but would often skip out on her duties, going to explore the nearby caves and gullies with the neighborhood kids and getting into other kinds of trouble. One day, her dreams came true as the Magnificent came into Elliott's dock to refuel and resupply. She jumped at the chance to sail the skies with the son of Gabriel, packing her tools and belongings and leaving her father's dockyard within the day, only looking back to send letters back home when she gets the chance.
Traits and Personality: She is a curious and slightly mischievous girl. Quite intelligent, though not always the wisest. Her youth and naivete often betray her as she takes on tasks out of her grasps. She is a girl who loves tales of adventure, no matter how tall and can quickly become enamoured with fiction, her head getting up in the clouds higher than the ships she works on. As for the ships themselves, she is quite adept at repairing and maintaining them, taking great pleasure in completing a difficult task. She is flexible and agile, making her ideal for squeezing into the nooks and crannies of an engine room. She has a soft spot for her family, and writes to her fathers each chance she gets, keeping them updated on her adventures. Despite all her bravado, she is not a lot of use in a fight. She can keep herself out of a fray, but she can't pack a punch or take one very well Dexter insisted that she learn to shoot, but she was never much good at firing a gun. She took much more enjoyment in taking the firearm apart and putting it back together.
Why you joined: Sense of adventure and a chance to sail with a figure from her childhood stories.

Okay guys this is important!
First of all holy shit thank you for all the support and interest! Now there is 9 people I know are interested, and we have a few CS too. Now you can post your CS in the appropriate segment of this RP.

BUT


As much as I would love to pilot y'all on one ship, there is just not enough space! We would spill out, like an orange juice in the morning. So either we all put our heads together and figure out a way how can we all RP like this, or I make a second thread, and make 2 groups. The RP would be same, only with different people. So what do you guys say? :D

@6slyboy6 I'd say run it on a basis of first come, first serve. Get the CSs for the first crew and then have a second thread for the second group. Some people who have shown interest might not get sheets up so see how things go for actual sheets.

@RhineQueen This was on my mind too. I think that the first batch of ready CSs will be here, and then we'll see about the other group.

And may I hurry a response from those who are interested but don't have a CS yet? I do not want all this trouble if some bail out

@RhineQueen Oh no, a Hollister girl!

@6slyboy6 I think that's the best idea here. We already have a somewhat diverse group, which bodes well for the story! But I'd say first come first serve and just make the cut off, and if more want to join, make a second thread

Yolly good ol chaps! Darn nice team if I do say so myself!
@Desire I need your CS in the appropriate segment please!
@RhineQueen and @The Whacko you are both in teh first batch!
We'll see if either my Co-GM arrives in short notice to fit in, or I can get @CandiBarr out of her birthday coma
and make her post a CS. And maybe instead of 2 girls ,we could welcome @Voltus_Ventus into the group.

For the second thread I am thinking either one of tha last names above, and @BytheSpleen, @Baklava and @ONL.
This would make 2 five player teams, with separate decisions and adventures.

PM: I did the mention on purpose. This way everyone gets the message whether we start soon or not.

I think we should break convention and use this:



Giant planes? With landing skis to land in sand?

@Voltus_Ventus@6slyboy6 Oh, planes are pretty cool.
Personally I've always been a fan of ships having fin-like sails.

I will transfer my CS! And hmm I have to go looking about for ships now... Darn. Anyways, I think it should be a little pirate-ship like. Make air warfare a lot more interesting.

@Voltus_Ventus I might just have an idea for the future, which will be of your liking :D
But for now we should stick to airships. I think deciding what ship we want can bring the crew together, and can be a lot if fun!
Sadly CandiBarr is busy so she is out of the play. So Voltus will you join the first crew?

Name: Tyra. Just Tyra
Age: 21
Sex: Female
Appearance:
-5'9"
-long, curly, ginger hair and hazel/yellow eyes
-pale and curvy figure, physically fit.

-has three piercings on each ear.
-wears heavy smokey-eye makeup in green or blue tones.
Background: Tyra came from a small town called Matrilod, and her family was the richest there. When she was seventeen she was married off to a rich man from another city and made an effort to start a family there. She quickly became unhappy, however, after the birth of a baby girl left her husband disappointed with her. They argued frequently, which resulted in a violent confrontation that left Tyra unable to expand her family. She then ran away from her "new" home and vowed to never return. Instead, she wanted to seek out something new beyond her two-town experience and make her own mark on the world, on her terms.
Weapons: A pair of 6-chamber revolvers, which she learned to use thanks to an old drunk in a town she passed through, who felt "A lady should be able to protect herself".
Traits and Personality:
-extremely enthusiastic and willing to try new things
-over-excitable and occasionally a little too animated and loud (especially when she's had something to drink)
-strongly believes in independence and individuality
-can be a bit of a hypocrite and often doesn't practice what she preaches.
-not afraid to pick fights, even if she's aware of odds against her
Why you joined:
-to see the world and have some life experience on her own terms without her life being dictated by other people.

@6slyboy6 I hope Tyra is an ok character. I don't really know what she would specifically do as a crew member, but she would definitely be willing to do what she could/needed to to pull her weight.
