"Loki"

Ashur "Loki" Lean

"In life many things can bring pleasure, but none of them matters without pain."

NAME

Ashur Lean

NICKNAME

Loki

AGE

27

APPEARANCE

She might have the soul of a demon, but she definetly has the body of an angel. She has a very pretty when not wearing a mask, whilst her body is perfectly proportioned. However her small breasts do irritate her. Loki is a sucker for fashion and neat looks. She usually wears flexible clothing suitable for parkpir and stealth in a black colors. A glove and a hood is a must have for anyone who grew up in the slums ans Loki doesn't break this rule. She enjoys wearing shoes with high heels, and generally everything fancy, as long as it doesn't stop her from doing parkour. Her hair is always tied up into a ponytail behind her, and often made into deadlocks so it won't end up getting stuck in objects. Thought makeup is hard to come by in the desolate wastelands of Enoh, she has a well hidden stash of these beauty products.

PERSONALITY

• Psychopath: Loki enjoys pain and derives pleasure from it, and she fuels her fierce bloodlust and anger with every hit taken. But the only thing Loki enjoys more than feeling pain is the chance to cause pain to someone else. She will often dawdle and desecrate the bodies of her victims.
• Arrogant: Loki looks down on others and generally treats everyone else like trash.
• Confident: There is nothing that can deter Loki from a mission, not even the prospect of danger and possible death. She is overly confident in her abilities, party to her makeshift immunity to pain.
• Protective: Loki may by a psychopath deep down, but she takes care to distance her constant lust for blood from the runners. To her the only good thing left in the world is the people close to her that she can call a makeshift family, and she will go to any lengths to protect them. She also has some soft left inside her heart, which she only reveals to those really close to her.

BIOGRAPHY

Loki grew up in the slums. Her house was in an area of constant riots and maffia actions, so she began to learn the way of a criminal very fast. She was bullied a lot in school, and she dropped out of it when she was 10. From that point on she started to dislike humans for their petty behaviour and respected only the law of the jungle. She would go on to steal, cheat and fight her way through life. On a fateful day, she broke into the house of an old martial arts expert who disarmed her took her in for the night. Loki decided to stay with the old man and help him with his errands, in exchange to be teached in martial arts. This second chapter of her life is the source of all the good memories of that keep her soft side alive. For several years she was with the old man, and she became an expert at self-defence and hand-to-hand combat, and she also learned to use a handful of melee weapons.

However nothing good can last forever, and Loki had to learn this the hard way. During a trip to the shop, the Mafia paid a visit to his sensei and put an end to the old man. Loki still doesn't know to this day what motivation the maffia had to kill her master. What she do knows is the number of heads she took for the death of a single individual close to her. When she arrived back at the house, and found the thugs of the maffia carrying the dead body of her master, she went into a crazed fury and killed at least a dozen people before getting knocked out by several tazer batons.

When she woke up she was inside a dark chamber, cahined to the wall. In fornt of her stood the queenpin of the maffia, who was impressed by her skills and pretty face. She wanted her as a per that she can show off, but all good pets must be trained first. As such, months and months of rigorous torture was the daily life of Loki. In the dank chamber she had time to rethink the way she looked at life. She came to hate humans even more than before, and developed a psychopathic uninterest in other's wellbeing. The constant pain altered her mind, and she started to derive pleasure from beatings. As long as she felt anger, she could endure even the most brutal of tortures. But the trotures had another purpose as well: she was the perfect testbed for illegal body augments and implants. Her skin was almost entirely changed to a synthetic one that resisted electricity, and her retinas were replaced with artifical lenses for better sight. By the time she was released from captivity, she was barely a human anymore with most of her body modified heavely.

When she was released, the maffia expected her to be a valuable asset. Little did they know that even thought the broke Loki, they only made her into a more dangerous foe. She strangled the queenpin to death, and killed most her advisors and leaders. After dismantling the maffia with her actions, she had to run from the killsquads. However, she was not entirely free in her new life, as her constant thirst for blood kept her borderline insane. She became a mercilles killer who tortured her victims before killing them. Her targets included the wealthy and the poor, and all who were affiliated with the mafia feared the woman who could feel no pain or mercy.

PROS

• Bionic Implants: Loki is augmented with a handful of quality of life upgrades and combat enchantements. Her skin is electricity resistant, whilst her eyes are ecnhanced to see better in darkness. She can also release a massive dose of adrenaline with an implant of hers, giving her insane strenght and endurance for a short period. Having to maintain these implants, she has learned how to repair and and install them.
• Martial Arts Expert: Loki has had a lot of time to learn to fight, and she is one of the best fighters on Enoh. Be it a weapon or her bare hand, he can easely beat up most enemies.
• Agile: Loki is extremely agile, and she can perfrom impressive acrobatic feats.

CONS

• Bionic Wear: Loki's implants put a serious stress on her body. Whilst she may not feel the effects of it during action, she suffers from many disorders in the meantime. Her adrenaline rush gives her a short boost in physical capabilities, but after the effect ends she becomes practically useless, as it makes her insnaley nauseous and gives her extreme mood swings.
• Lack of Ranged Skills: Loki never used a gun, and she always wanted to staw away from them. She has zero skills with them, and it isn't likely she could operate one even if her life depended on it.
• Thrillseeker: Loki's reasoning goes out the window if there is a chance to do something extreme, her inner self craving for excitement and clouding her judgement.

HABITS

• Bloodthirst: Loki suffers from mental disorders, and she is prone to violent outbursts. Pain is an addiction to her, but she is not completely immune to it's effect. Normally Loki isn't different from anyone else, but as she gets angrier and takes more damage, she becomes practically immune to pain. She is constantly on the lookout for causing pain to someone or something else, which has the same pain releiveing effect on her. Going too long without killing anyithing will cause serious mental defects in her, and make Loki prone to attacking anyone on sight.
• Graffiti: She may not look like some random vandal, but Loki has a few cans of paint with her all the time. Growing up on the streets, she pursued this urban artform since childhood, and she won't let some apocalypse stop her. Her art is unusually colorful for her normal attitude and preferences, suggesting some hidden layer of childishness within her.
• Body-Perfection: Ever since she was heavely modified with implants, Loki pursues to perfect her body. Replacing broken implants is one of her main priorities, and she often seeks out during nighttime to look for artifacts. This nightly routine is accompanied with a maniacal workout routine that she tries to keep a secret from the others to avoid scaring them them. Loki will often push herself to the limits of passing out, simply because she doesn't feel the pain.

EQUIPMENT

• TWO PIECE GAS MASK: Loki's gas mask is composed of two separate pieces: the lower mask that protects her lungs from toxicity, and the Goggles that protect the still organic parts of her eye.
• IMPLANTS: Almost every part of Loki is augmented in some ways, and listing it here would be too long.
• EEL SUIT: A flexible overall suit that can be used while parkouring, this suit provides almost no protection and can be worn under all the other clothing items. The main function is to protect the user from harmful effects of an EMP, required for Loki to keep her implants functioning in the radiaton bombarde wasteland.
• DUAL KAMAS: A kama is a small one handed weapon that resembles a schyte. They inflict deep woounds, and like paper, they rip skin instead of perfectly cutting. There is no question to why Loki never leaves her pair at home.

RELATIONSHIPS

Speed: Ah Klaus, how can I forget my first runner. His overprotective nature makes me want to break his nose sometimes, but he is close to my heart as an old memeber of this little family. Darn good shot with that stupid bow of his, and he is the only person that can keep up with me in terms of speed. But if he scratches one more furniture in the base I will throw him in the pits and watch him get eaten by rats.

Newt: Huh, you mean that irritating chipmunk? I'd gut her every time she starts to annoy me, but she sure livens up this moody company. Gotta give it to her, maybe she is a chipmunk, but her use of the grapple and sniper make her a valuable asset. As much pleasure as I would find from throwing her out, I would lose a valuable asset by doing so.

Teach: I gotta admit, I've gotten to like Louis. He doesn't talk over me, and he doesn't make dumb questions. I can always rely on him fact-checking the others in my place. He might be a moody old manm but he is a serene angel when it comes to tinkering. If not for him, half my implants wouldn't be working now.

Boomer: I'm aware that the lad doesn't like me, but I can't not admire her bravery. She is tougher than most men I have met in my life, and I admire her love for explosions. But her tendency to ruin things back at home has become upsetting, and I am seriously thinking about locking away all the explosives and blunt weapons.

Deadeye: Argh, how should I put this? In today's world, one can't run around with a crossbow! This guy is out of his mind! Sure, he is a good shot with it, but his obsession with that outdated and ineffective weapon is driving me crazy. I swear to god, I might break that thing myself to save time.

Sigh...but I do like the guy. He's a real charmer and I cannot help but feel connected with someone who knows the same pain of an eye surgery. I just hope he doesn't get killed with that optimistic attitude and medieval weapon.

Doc: Mr Mistery, the very own doctor of our group. Having our own medic is a luxury, but I'd rather go without a mumbling old man with shaking hands. But he patched up my skin more times than I can remember, and I am grateful for that. I don't think I ever talked to him outside the surgeries and the field assignements, but I don't think he minds.

Vadri: Still wary of her. She fit in so well, but I feel like she may be too simple to fit into a group of mishaps like a Runner group. I also don't mind having a military gal, but you never know it with these guys, especially since she is from offworld. And she doesn't seem too keen on sharing why she came here either. I still keep an eye on her every move, and I wouldn't hesitate to give her the boot if something comes up, I just don't trust her.

Grim: I don't know what to think about Liam. I can relate to how he feels about strangers and family, but I don't know how much he thinks about the group as a family. On top of that, his drinking habits are costly and destructive, something that I cannot easely tolerate. If the shelter ever smells like piss and vomit again when I come back, I will string him up above the Pit for the night.

Flamel: Konstantin is a weird one. He constantly smells of chemicals and injects junk into his body, but him and I find the same pleasure in carnage. If you get past his twitchy nature, you could view him as a lesser version of me. Okay, that may be an overstatement, but I think you get the point. Out of all the people here who do stupid shit, I tolerate his the most for some reason.

Devil's Runners

@The Heretic Yu making me double post boi

Yes, I already approved of it back in the Interest check. Feel free to move it into the CS section.

Devil's Runners

@Tala Avana We are the only Devil's Runners. There may be other runners or groups like us, but we are THE Devil's Runners.

@SilverDawn Yo, I gotta add her to my fave characters. Even thought she isn't especially a "runner" despite being in a gang like us, she seems like a really good addition to the team. And the format is just *kisses fingers like a chef*
Put 'er into the CS if you are done editing whatever you think you may want to add to her.

Devil's Runners

@Liotrent There you go guys again with these confidence killers! So far I have only seen 2 awesome characters, so I have high hopes for your work. And I am sure you don't know me as someone to break your spirits by absolutely shittalking what you write.

If anything I am the biggest fan of my players and their writings. After all, we can't have an RP without them and the time they spend in developing characters.

Devil's Runners

@Thecrash20 Hell yeah big blue ugly monster guy! You can spend the time here until we wait to fight in the Maw.

Devil's Runners

Good news @The Heretic@BubblegumQueen@NuttsnBolts@Liotrent! The OOC is up and ready to accept your characters. It didn't take long at all, since I just copied the already existing opening. Hopefully we can get some more people before we start, but we can start playing with the people we have now.

Devil's Runners

NOTIFICATION BOARD:

Recruiting is currently closed due to the large amount of Runners. It may be possible to join at a later date, but we aren't looking for new memebers right now.

This is probably important
Death is going to be a thing. Here's how you qualify.

• Do exceedingly stupid stunts in or out of character while ignoring warnings.
• The story is at a dramatic point and we've gotten your approval beforehand.
• You leave without reason or explanation for a long period of time. Maybe a week. Dunno yet.

Those that willingly offer a character up to the chopping block for the sake of drama will be given the type of death that they wish for, provided it works within the context. Those people are free to make a new character. All other deaths will be hilariously gruesome. Those people will have to give a good reason as to why they should be allowed to return.

Cannon fodder is always welcome, though.

Regards.

Extra Info #1

As for the creature legend. Here is a sum of all the most common enemies that you will be encountering during the RP. These are all non-boss enemies that will usualyl appear in hordes. But don't be fooled, they are all thought combatants to take down.

Contaminated Rats

As the name suggests these are simple rats that evolved into ferocious killing machines. There are many types of them, depending on where they originate from, but they are generally very agile, and are very hard to kill, as they won't stop attacking as long as they can move. What's worse is that they are occasionally found in groups of 6-8. Their teeth can pierce metal, so if you don't have to do otherwise, avoid their head. Just like any other creature it is best if you keep your distance from them or else you can find yourself quickly swarmed.

Characteristics:
-Very agile
-Sharp teeth
-Terrible odor
-Pack creatures

Ghouls

These abominations are what became of those that didn't die from the radiation. They are exactly like the famous pop cultural "zombies", and they will attack any living thing. They often get into battles with rats and other wasteland creatures, and thanks to their strength, they usually win. They are incredibly hard to kill, and they posess superhuman strenght. They can bend metal with their bare fists. And what makes them even more fearful is the fact that they constantly radiate 10 times stronger than an avergage fuel cell in a nuclear power plant. If you do have to go up against them, be preapred, and pack tons of lead armor on yourself.

Characteristics:
-Very strong
-Tenacious
-Radioactive ( Get teh joke )

Spine Wolves

This is what happens to a puppy thrown on the road, when it gets hit by gamma rays 1000x of a lethal dose. You don't want to meet these baddies, ever. They are agile, strong, and have razor sharp claws and fangs. They always hunt in pairs of two, and have good smelling, thought their hearing and vision is kind of bad. They are very strong and can regenerate even in combat.

Characteristics:
-Vicious AF
-Regeneration
-Also radiates
-Good at tracking down it's prey

Psychos/Bandits

Not technically mutants, these psychonauts that roam the wastes do have genetical disorder in their brain caused by the radiation. They are in for the kill, and usually wön't stop until they are dead. They are a very commoin plague for the settlers, and they are also in war with the maffia. Their social behavious reflects a potato's and they are not really talkative. That doesn't mean they are stupid. They are usually kept in line by some thug, that isn't contaminated, and has the balls to keep them controlloed. The same description can go to the usual bandits too. They posess firearms and basic vehicles. Ouch.

Characteristics:
-Armed
-Fanatics
-Sadists
-Very brave

Stalkers

Spiderlings are giant mutated spiders, that hide in the dark, and dank dephts of the planet. Thus their vision is excellent, and they can sense motion from very far away. Take a wrong step, and their web will be your final resting place. They can puncture your body with a single punch, and their chitin plates can protect them from most froms of kinetic damage. However they are very vulnerbale to falling, and blunt objects hitting them. They are loners, but taking one down is a hard task even for the experienced scavengers.

Characteristics:
-Very quick strikes
-Extremely sharp chitin blades
-Good armor

Those are only the most common of mutants that roam the lands, so rest asured I still have some ideas up my sleeve ;D

Extra Info #2

The Timeline of the RP is long and convoluted, but because we are only playing the first setting of the actual universe, we don't have to worry about anything overlapping. So here is an overview of what happened:

• +1 hours to apocalypse: Offical governement crumbles, most of the population does of radiation overdosage, military tries to cease control and protect civilians in safe areas.
• +4 hours: Major underground hubs like metro stations and cargo acces tunnels are crowded with survivors.
• +24 hours: Survivors organize search parties to ssek out food and supplies. Most of these people due to radiation exposure, but they manage to get a good biew of the surface.
• +48 hours: Radiation reaches acceptable levels, but air is too poisonous and thin to breathe. Many die in shelters from poor air conditions, or because of shoddy air filters. Most food becomes irradiated, canned foods are the go-to food source.
• +72 hours: Raiders begin to organize attacks on settlements for supplies and gear. Weapons become a new priority loot.
• +128 hours: Utility services cease to work. All above ground settlements move underground in the face of emerging mutant and raider threat. Most minor settlements are abandoned, and are now housing threats.
• +2 weeks: Major settlements begin popping up, providing a safe haven for survivors who want a better future. Any resembelance of the military ceases to exist, and use their gear to work as mercenaries or join raider gangs.
• +3 weeks: Currency is re-established in the form of pop tabs (the little things you can open tin cans with if you don't have an opener). Traders begin to chart out the ruins of the planet in search for other settlements.
• +4 weeks: Large communities begin to appear, and electricy is restored to some areas. Radio stations are now setup to help co-ordination of survivors.
• +2 months: The remains of the Mafia surface from their underground bunker, and offer protection from Raiders. They extort money from settlements, and only rarely intervene to protect them. Using scavenged equipment they restore some ships to working condition and help in the creation of the first above ground settlement.
• +4 months: Scavenging becomes harder as organized crime gangs are popping up equipped with military gear and mobilized forces, barricading the tunnels. The topside is ravaged by mutants that are rapidly reproducing and prey on the humans.
• +5 months: The mafia controls the only above ground farming settlement, selling crops and livestock for insane prices. They place monopoly on electricity, and essentially act as an unoffical governement. Many settlemetns struggle to stay fed and powered.
• +7 months: Metro railways and cargo transports are powered back up, allowing for limited travel between setlements. Mafia now controls important chokepoints and focuses of defending against raiders. Most major settlements focus on expanding, and hire mercenaries to provide themselves with the needed materials. The first Runner groups emerge as the air starts to clear from toxic ions, but is still to thin to properly breathe.
• +8 months: With the solid influx of food and amterials due to the Runners, commerce flourishes and settlements rapidly grow. Well renowned Runner and mercenary Ashur "Loki" Lean establishes the Devil's Runners group.
• +1 year: Current time. Mafia still acts as pity governement, but progressively restores utilities to settlements with monopoly on them. The planet enters it's winter cycle, and Runners have more jobs cut out for them than before with the dropping temperatures. Large groups of mutants wipe out most raiders, and threaten settlements in search of food.

Extra Info #3

This time we will look at more in-depth info about the world that the RP plays in. You apready know some info about it from the opening, but I will cover the more relevant information about places and groups.

Enoh

Before

After


Enoh was once an industrial powerhouse with billions of citizens living on it. Nowadays it looks more like a desloate and hellish landsape that doesn't forgive. During the warpgate explosion, the Southern side of the planet took most of the impact, destroying everything on that hemisphere. Now the survivors have all migrated to the North, where some resemblance of civilization still remains in the form of underground settlements. The largest pre-apocalypse population hub is the location with the most settlements on the whole planet, known as Daria. This used to be a sprawling urban center with a massive spaceport, but now it is fertile ground for survivors that want to rebuild whatever they can. Most communities are separated by hundreds of miles of mutant infested tunnels, so even thought there could be much greater trading between the survivors, they would need co-ordinated efforts to make it avaible. However, thanks to the rebuilt radios, news can still be shared with the rest of the hemisphere.

Settlements

_{Shameless I know, but these are the closes I will get.}

After the apocalypse, most fled into the vast underground tunnels that are below the surface. However, some of the lower levels are completely sealed off by their inhabitants, and are out of touch with the surface. Nobody knows what is going on behind the sealed blast proof doors and masssive barricades down there, but not many people have time to worry about it. The people who lived on the surface have only migrated as far below as metro lines and the cargo trains that run below the surface. These are crowded, poorly lit and conditioned slums that try to house as many people as possible. This can be said about almost any settlement, but there are a few strongholds that do better than the others. Notably 3 settlements are the shining examples of the wastes: Garth, the southernmost stronghold that took it upon themselves to patrol and protect large portions of the tunnels leading towards the South and defend against mutants, Lornfell, the trading hub and the largest 24/7 open settlement that is responsible for operating the utlity services, and finally Kington, the Stronghold of the Mafia and the only settlement above ground. There are dozens more small settlements, but these three locations are the main areas of commerce.

Underworld Portals

The massive service tunnels that lead down into the lower levels of the planet are given the friendly name of "underworld poartals" by the locals. The are hardly accessible and are most unused nowadays, but the upper few levels use elevator systems to move around the various levels using these portals. Most notably, the portal next to Garth has been almost fully built in, with most of the it's walls covered in small buildings for a few dozen levels. Nowadays, it is one of the only 2 ways of entry into the city.

Some portals are more notorious than others, often being responsible for housing nests of unspeakable horros. One such portal is "The Pit", which lays near the fringes of the local community. It is the nest of many species of mutants, and all expeditions to chart out or clear it have ended in failure and the death of the parties. A large are near it is off-limits to most settlers, and only Runners are allowed anywhere near it.

The Tunnels

The collective name of Metro and cargo railways, planetray ventillation shafts and sewage systems that are used as the primary ways of getting around. They suffered the least damage during the apocalypse, and the deeper you go, the more intact they are. Many of the settlements are built inside chokepoints of these tunnels, and the community is interconnected by these systems. Towards the South, soldiers of Garth keep the peace in the tunnels with many roadblocks, while the Mafia and local volunteers keep the peace in most other locations. Since power is still only used inside settlements, these tunnels are often pitch-black, giving ample oppurtinity for mutants to prey on unsuspecting humans. In some of the upper railways, means of transportation have emrged that use the already existing infrastructure, but you won't find that in the lower areas.

Hellscape

The surface is little more than ruins now, with the streets littered with debree and thrash, and roamed by raiders and mutants. Settlers rarely come up here, but Runners are tasked with reovering supplies from locations in the hellscape. The only beacon of hope is the massive ruins of a skyscraper that is now known as the settlement of Kington. Most Runners enter and exit the tunnels here, thought the braver Runners often try to sneak into and out of Garth to escape the search parties of the Mafia who would tax what they scavenge. Small communes that live off the charts vegetate inside the ruins of larger buildings, but they rarely contact the outside community. The only reason we know they are there, is because of the occasional scavengers that can be spotted in the hellscape. Some of the more experienced Runners are people like these.

Supplies are ample to find, but the surface is the most dangerous of all the locations. Air is scarce and toxic, whilst the sun is constantly trying to murder anyone on the surface with deadly rays of radiation. The temperature is often below freezing even in daylight, but it can become extremely cold in the night hours. Now that winter is coming, scavenging on the topside will be even harder than before.

Devil's Runners

"So you came here for another story, eh? Well let me tell you one that you have never heard of before."

---

Exposition

So, have you heard of the planet Enoh? I wouldn't be surprised if you haven't. People more often use the term "Abandoned Hell". But it is not as abandoned as people think. Now let me tell you the full story behind the name. Once upon a time, several centuries ago, Enoh was a gigantic world that was covered with cities to the last inch. Multiple industrial levels spanned through the planet's crust, turning it into a world made by man, ruled by machines. It had a population of several billion people, and so it relied on importing food, and other organic supplies. However it's heavy industry and shipyards of it's 3 moons made trade flourish in the sector. The skyscrapers that made wounds in the giant clouds of the planet, housed the rich merchants, whilst the slums were the place where industrial workers went to spend their night, and lighten their purse in bars. The local maffia was well know in the galaxy for having military equipment, and commiting notorious crimes against the commonfolk. However, it all changed on a fateful day.

At the time, Interplanetary travel was made possible by the usage of wormholes that spanned across the universe, leading to other systems. Jump gates were established for better stability and faster jump times, and those that had wormholes connected to them allowed for insant travel. But all hell break loose when the wormhole leading to Enoh turned unstable. It was that day fate decided not to favor the system anymore, and bring a solar catastrophe to the planet. In the very first seconds of the wormhole's long suffering, that ultimately led to it's death, it let out a burst of gamma rays so strong that it melted the jump gate around it. It only lasted for a brief moment, but it was enough to kill 3/4 of all people on the planet and fry most of the electrical equipment. The catastrophe came as a surprise and left havok in it's wake. The wormhole layed dormant for another day, when it started to emit radio frequencies that disabled all communications on the planet, and made it impossible to target the sector's co-ordinates in order to send help. The governement of the planet died on that day and Enoh fell into chaos.

The third day was the most devastating of all. In a brilliant flash, the wormhole exploded, and the intensive waves from it swept away most of the planet's atmopshere. The electromagnetic particles fried all electronics that weren't already destroyed on the first day, and the side of the planet facing the wormhole at the time of explosion was hit by gamma waves so powerful in annihilated all lifeforms it hit directly. The rest was mutated, turning them into mindless monsters, mutated beyond recognition. Some on the lower level were fortunate enough to survive the first wave, but the radiation melted their brain into mindless psychpaths, barely able to communicate whith each other. Even the lowest levels suffered contamination 10 times stroner than the background radiation. On that day the population dropped to a mere 1.5 million, most of them on the other side of the planet.

Weeks passed, and settlements started popping up one after another, along with raiders that were trying to control the lands. There were vast no man's lands between suitable territories on the surface, and underground. The lowermost levels locked themselves up, waiting for help that never came. They say that their children still wait for rescure down, far below the surface of the planet, in areas long forgotten and blockaded. However this is not the story of these secluded few. Soon, the maffia came back to life, and re-organized itself on the remnants of the ruined civilization. They became the most powerful force, and the only ones with ships avaible for use. They protected the settlements in exchange for money, however the protecting part often failed to realize. Raiders and mutants became a constant struggle for the survivors, even though life was harsh as it is. Growing food and expanding their settlements was all they had time for. To go out and get supplies was considered to be the most dangerous job on the planet. Everyone knew that mutants weren't the most devastating of the things that lurked in the constant twilight of the planet and roamed the radiated zones.

And in this time of turmoil emerged a small group known as the Devil's Runners. They were masters of martial arts, shooting, parkour and scavenging. They soon became the most well known mercenary group on the planet, and even with limited communications, there was no survivor who never heard of them at least once. They were the ones that went out day to day in the wastes of civilization and fought with their life for the daily. The settlers looked upon them as saviors, even if their fees were high. In these dark times, they were the bright beacons of hope in this desloate enviroment. And this my friends, is their story.

The RP

So what is this and what are we doing? Well you should know if you have read the story, but if ya haven't ye lazy bastard then I will tell you right now. We will be playing as mercenaries that go out in a post-apocalyptic world of suffering and doom, solve people's issues (for a good price that is) and get supplies for settlements that need it. Our team would choose from a range of quests offered by various settlements and individuals, and the carry out said quest. After that, we will be bale to spend some sweet time developing characters and listening my more exposition from yours sincerely. If you like what you hear, and you want to have this awesome experience with a devoted GM then you should apply!

Rulez

This is how the cookie crumbles:
-Site rules apply, duh.
-I am a nice and friendly GM that sometimes goes into full retard, but my words are still the most powerful, and right after them are the words of my Co-GMs.
-I expect at least 2 paragraphs per post with a mid/high casual quality. My primary language isn't english, but I expect proper sentences in an RP. Just make sure posts advance the plot.
-For the love of god, make up your mind once you join. I don't want anyone leaving after a week or two, holding up the rest of the RP until they decide to announce that they are quitting.
-Please no OP characters that are the "chosen ones". Your skills should reflect your background and be within reasonable boundaries. Remember that everyone has some quirks, so make sure you make a character with exploitable weaknesses for RP reasons.

Appearance (I would love a picture more than anything, but if you can detail to us what your character looks like to the point where we can imagine in it you are good in my book):

Personality (only keywods that you can use as a cheathseet during the RP, no need for detailing what "charismatic" or "caring" means):

Background:

Pros (What is your character good at? This should include the things that make you a good candidate for a Runner. By default everyone is agile and fit enough for the job, but if you are partically good in one of these areas then you should mention it):

Quirks (Unlike in Boku no Hero, quirks are a bad thing here. What are the thiungs that your character cannot handle, or are weak to?:

Habits (To add more features to your character, these should include hobbies or obsessions. Is your character a drunkard and cannot stop drinking? Were you an artist before the apocalypse and now you like painting on your armor or graffitiing on walls?):

Equipment (Please include a gas mask by default, and be fair with weapons and armor. The era of tech is mainly electromagnetic kinetic weapons, with some traces of other energy weapons like laser and plasma. Snipers are ok as long as they have a solid quirk(s) to compensate for the burden they put on runners and their unsuitable use for urban warfare):

Motto (Not necessary, but if you have one, make it represent your character in a snappy one liner) :

Devil's Runners

@BubblegumQueen Nice, I like the bow and arrow. He is a very well composed character in term of integrity. I always try to look for details that don't really conform with the backstory or personality of a character (even if I don't always tell you guys about it) but I could hardly find anything here. Great job, he will be a great asset for the Runners.

Devil's Runners

@BubblegumQueen Like I said, no problem. You can always modify it later.
