Seeing actual bushfire footage looks straight out of Hell... It moves so quickly and so powerfully, literally the trees just ignite. You firefighters are absolute legends, but please, don't die.

and me.
Welcome to my little personal den of Hell! Sorry, sorry, I meant my personal profile. Same thing, right?
I'm a roleplayer, same as any around here. I've been doing it for about five years now, coming up to six in September. Its been quite the time, thinking back. I started out fresh as can be, understanding the basics of writing but never quite knowing how to become better, or become as great as those around me. In the end, I did the only thing I really knew at the time:
Write as much garbage as possible and hope for the best!
As you can see, that particular tactic fucking failed. Jokes aside, I like to think I've developed a lot over the years, both as a writer and as a person. However, absolutely nothing can dissuade my weeaboo ways and supporting my OTP with all that I can freaking muster! If you haven't already guessed, said OTP is Chrom x Robin (Chrobin) from Fire Emblem: Awakening. Highly recommend the game, there's a reason (other than nintendo's cheapskate attitude) that it hasn't dropped in price, it's honestly the best place to start off in the series. And hey, maybe you'll end up addicted like me and want to buy every game on the 3DS like a fucking loony?
Speaking of loonies, the Fire Emblem Chrobin Comic Dub Project has recently finished, so for those of you who also appreciate the best ship in existence, I highly recommend it. Hell, even if you're not interested in that, I do highly recommend watching it for those into fantasy love stories. The quality improves drastically with each episode, so trust me when I say by the end of it you should be thoroughly impressed. It has helped motivate me in ways I can hardly describe with words, and so I thought the least I could do was put this out there. Maybe it's not for everyone, but I know it was the perfect thing for me.
"Do you think you can tip any of the scales in here?" "Chrom, for the love of Naga, I'm thinking..."
"So I heard."
"There are better places to take a nap than on the ground, you know."
There is a universe. No-one knows it's name, where gravity wasn't strong enough to bind matter together and no stars formed. And because no stars formed, no stars exploded. And because no stars exploded, no planets came about. And because no planets came about, there was no life.
There's another universe, no one knows it's name, where gravity was strong enough and did light the stars and planets came about and boy, they were gorgeous, planets in perpetual winter, planets in perpetual summer, planets that could rival the Garden of Eden and no bloody snakes! And on one of them, eventually, complex life evolved and one of the species developed large brains learned things like manners and dabbing, when they looked up at the stars and wonder what they were doing here. You called them octopuses, I suppose. Gosh, they were clever, for octopuses, and one of them, several million years in, almost wrote something in ink on the seafloor, a message to its friend. And the message almost read: "Hi! How are you?" And a few millennia later, space folder back on itself and, you get the idea. Goodbye Octopi.
There's another universe, where life formed on every planet, in every solar system, and it was carbon-based, it was silicon based, it was made of crystals and water and plasma, it was made of quantum fields and light, and everything was alive, everything was doing a boogie, and it was everybody's birthday, everyday, relatively, and everyone got presents, and they had over a trillion languages, some written down, some only spoken, some conducted telepathically, and they bought a galactic civilization together, as a perfect unity, sharing stories, sharing technology, speaking a common tongue, understanding everything about how the cosmos been put together. And finally, when everything was sorted, the galaxies were arranged into perfect geometric formations, transmitting pure love, and wisdom, and birthday greetings to all species in the universe, for all time. Papercuts never happened, coke came in glass bottles, no one even remembered the word for war, everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
And yet, for a quirk in their evolution, because resources weren't scarce enough on the planets these species developed on, not a single creature in the universe was conscious. Food was eaten and no-one enjoyed it. Movies were released, and there was no laughing, or crying. No-one chuckled at a joke. Ever. Space collapsed back on itself, eventually, and there hadn't been a single moment of sentience in the entire history of creation.
There's another universe, where the strong force is too strong the weak force is too weak and nothing forms. Another, where life develops too late when the Stars have all gone beyond the light boundary and there's nothing to even see. Another with too many dimensions. Another with not enough. Another where time goes in the opposite direction, and species begin as gods, and wind backwards to cells, and never learn to survive. Another that only lasts milliseconds, and collapses in on itself, and heads straight back to oblivion. And that's how it just might be, across all possible universes, across all possible space times. Problems with the laws of nature, not enough resources, missteps in evolution. An atlas of dead-ends.
Then again, there is one exception.
There's another universe, a big one, where life is rare, where intelligent life is very rare indeed, the stars are very distant from each other, the laws of nature are very complex, it's extremely lonely for any species developing, and most never even develop at all, but somewhere, we believe, is a planet where the oceans are vast, and the climate is varied. Where the smartest species on the planet may have developed just the right mix of ambition and kindness. And if you were to travel there, to this unbelievably rare statistical anomaly, to this impossibly lucky planet, where evolution, biology, chemistry, nae, the laws of physics themselves have come together to create sentient intelligent life, you may be able to catch the native inhabitants singing for joy. Of what an impossibly lucky, and rare position they find themselves in. It is a chant of gratitude, a ritual of showing appreciation for ending up in perhaps the one universe, in the one solar system, on the one planet with all the basic ingredients for intelligent, conscious life.
Before there were Reds and Blues, there was Project: FREELANCER – a top secret experiment for an organisation which was so secretive, not even its operatives knew what it was about. Spearheaded by Director Leonard Church, this mysterious project saw many great soldiers rise and fall, and laid out the foundations for what may very well have been mankind’s greatest band of heroes. You are one of the fifty operatives chosen to take part in this special project. The Director advises you don’t disappoint… ”Welcome to Project: FREELANCER, Agent! My name is F.I.L.S.S.: the Freelancer Integrated Logistics and Security System! Here at Project: FREELANCER, we’re striving to put our best foot forward, in order to make the galaxy a safer place for all. Now, please step into the chamber, so we can make the appropriate selections for your new armour.”
[Name:] [Age:] [Sex:] [Callsign:] [Stats: Out of 100] STR: AGL: END: INT: PER: [Unarmoured Physical Description:] [Armour:] [Personality:] [History:] (If you want you can keep it short, like a paragraph, but in said paragraph try to say important things.) [Favoured Equipment:] [AI:] [Mental or Physical Wellbeing Notes:] [Other Info:]
Thank you for joining Project: FREELANCER, Agent! You will now be directed to the training grounds, where the Director will be introducing himself to all of you. Additionally, the Director has scheduled a quick training and exercise program later today, followed by a competitive match in the training area. Our leader board will keep track of how well each of you perform, and who will be receiving an edge later on. Thank you for your time, and have a nice day!
OOC INFO
Welcome to Project: FREELANCER, Agent! My name is Delta, and I’m here to tell you everything you’ll need to know about this roleplay! To put it simply, this is going to be an action-packed, AU Red VS Blue (RvB) roleplay revolving around the lives of the Freelancers: a group of experimental super soldiers tested with and without AI implantation. The roleplay will include the Freelancers of RvB, however they may or may not make it to the same positions they were at in the series, depending on the actions of your own Freelancers. Since this is an alternate universe, feel free to totally screw with the way things play out, though keep in mind the Freelancers of RvB that get the limelight will be pretty much the same. The events that transpire, however, may very well be different, and will inevitably lead to a whole new conclusion.
… Or not. In the end it all depends how you guys want to take it! This roleplay is going to be mostly character driven when aboard the “Mother of Invention” (Freelancer spaceship/HQ for those of you who don’t know), and story driven, more or less, when going out on missions. Keep in mind you’ll be aboard the ‘Invention’ a lot more than you’re going to be out and about, unless there are a series of missions that require completion, or you guys prefer ass-kicking on a planet. Still, I’m fairly certain the training room and virtual scenarios can keep you occupied! Psst! The training room can basically simulate anything! ;)
- Standard RP rules apply! You know, like don’t be a twat, and if you are then you will basically die, unless people disagree, in which case you’ll be revived with some injury. - You can’t use the names of Freelancers who are alive (or dead) who have made an appearance on RvB. However, if you wish to discuss the use of certain callsigns which have been mentioned(“Hawaii” for example) then just shoot me a message and I’ll get right on it. - I have a lot of room, though I might need help at some points. Volunteers to help are more than welcome! And yes, you can have a character AND be a co-GM :P - Stats have LITTLE VALUE and are only there to give a general indication of a Freelancer Agent’s skillset, and to limit people from going outside of their statistical limitations. - The AI section in the app will be left blank/non-applicable (N/A) until you guys start messing around with AI. Some will receive AI, some people will not. Feel free to reserve a spot. - Got something to add you think would be amazing? Send moi a message and we can talk! ^-^ I love talking with my cast for ideas to add! - I might add to this list, so yeah, just in case I forget anything this is my scapegoat >:D - I don’t know whether to make this more advanced-orientated or casual. I’ll probably make it a mix of both, leaning towards advanced.
Oh, and also this might be useful to know, too!
Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin. Note this does not include a bunch of Freelancers listed as MIA or that haven’t made an appearance.
TL;DR
- This is a Red VS Blue Project Freelancer RP. - Lots of ass will be kicked during the course of this RP. - You will die for being a twat. - That only applies if you are, in fact, a twat XD Don’t worry, I’m not an asshole. - Cool space shit happens! - Uhh… Just read my hard work ye lazy shites!
The Masquerade Thief caught, or just offering the services of an awesome thief? :D And yeah, I can do that, so long as I know it's up XD I'm bad at checkin' things.
@Kafka Komedy We need to start screaming at innocent children to join the roleplay XD
As sucky as it would be to leave Adisson behind (I doubt s/he'd fit into the equation of being a guard :D), I think that, if need be, we can reform this RP for a smaller cast. It sucks we couldn't get enough people, because I really liked the idea of a large cast, but if it must be done then I have no problems narrowing down the player count ^-^
... That being said, I do have a couple of connections to people who may be interested in something like this :P So if you want, I could gather maybe 2 more people at least, 6 more at most :3
But without both co-hosts I just cant find the inspiration to do it.
Plus after that shit storm in that other thread which wont be mentioned, I can see this starting off on a very awkward foot with one or two who might be looking to join.
What should I do though. should I just hand the RP over you ginger and delta and sit this one out? Is everyone really that ready to go? I dont want to disappoint y'all.
Look, I am not a very smart nor empathetic person at the best of times :P I have a tendency to lack understanding and I'm not very perceptive, despite what I like to think. But even I can see the three of you have some kind of bond with this roleplay, and dismantling that would just be a dick move ^-^
You've always been the GM, Boss, with Dollie and Ginger your loyal subordinates. Even if I later became a co-GM, you, Dollie and Ginger still all reserved the rights to make judgement calls, because you guys are basically it's founders :3 I kinda know how you feel is what I'm saying. I'm a member of a trio who I personally really enjoy RPing with, and although playing in twos is still fun, it's when our party turns to three or more when things truly get fun ^-^
This RP is your baby, Boss, and in my opinion you should be the one to rightfully decide whether you want it to continue or not C: It's not right if you're not a part of it, even if you want to be a player. And whatever bad shite happened somewhere else shouldn't affect anything here, should it? :D The only reason I'm on this site is because I enjoy the company and roleplay, so if someone's got you buggered I'll hit them over the head with a metal bat you just need to take a little time to work things out with them, develop an understanding :3
I'm not too good at this sentimental shit, but basically, if you don't feel comfortable in joining us, then I'll stand by you and support your decision and not join ^-^ Besides, it's only been like three months since it ended, so we can wait a little longer, at least ;)
Ren is a 17 year-old female trainer whose heritage stems from an offshore island smack dab in the middle of nowhere. She stands at 5'2, and weighs only 51kg. She has an extremely light and underdeveloped build, making her seem much younger than what she really is, much to her annoyance.
Sex: Female
Personality:
Creepy.
That's the one word that best describes Ren. Creepy. There are plenty of other words which greatly describe Ren, too: cynical, logical, sadistic, competitive, ambitious, and cold being among them. Whereas many trainers are hot-headed and confident, Ren is quite the opposite. Calm. Thinking. Silent. Like a hunter stalking it's prey, the seventeen year-old has a tendency to form complex strategies in short amounts of time. Though of course, if the situation were too difficult to forge a plan, gut feeling is best.
Funnily enough, many people actually mistake Ren as a boy due to her blunt and upfront nature, plus somewhat scratchier voice. In many ways Ren is smarter than most intelligence-wise, however lacks in social skills and isn't well educated in society. Speaking of, she has some very opinionated views on such topics or things that may be controversial, and, although is open to change her opinions or views on the world, it'll take some incredible persuasion to do so.
She also hates normal, girly things, and loves things like occult studies and lore.
Hometown: Offshore Island
Biography:
A tragic accident. A lone survivor. The tale is told many times, though rarely do these tales become reality.
At least, until now.
Ren Moyra was a victim of a tragic, mysterious event. One day, on her little island in which she grew, the floor opened up and simply... well, swallowed it whole! As strange as it sounds, that's the best way Ren can describe it: her home was eaten up by a darkness so incredible, there was nothing left of the area she called home. Even the sea needed to be evened out again, as a significant amount of water was swallowed up by the darkness.
Ren was hardly offshore when it happened. Going on an excursion with her grandfather to the mainland to do some trading at the marketplace, the two were stunned as their former home sunk into nothingness, never to be seen again.
Parents? Gone. Friends? Dead. Home? Obliterated.
There was nothing. She had nothing. Ren became nothing. Everything up to that point in her life had been for naught. All the fun times shared, and memories made, were wasted in an instant.
And all she could blame was the large, mysterious dragon which made it's way into the sky afterward. She didn't get a good look of this dragon, mind you. It's silhouette was all that could be seen in the midday sun. All she knew was that this was no ordinary Pokemon. This Pokemon was special. It was stronger than almost all others. Later, she found out that there was a classification for such Pokemon:
Legendary.
Following the event, Ren and her grandfather left for the mainland, and saved up enough to buy a small apartment with their limited funds. Considering Ren's grandfather could not work all that hard, Ren was forced to grow a backbone and work to make money while educating herself on... well, just about anything, really, though she took a shine to legends and mythology, namely legendary Pokemon. Her main drive in these studies was to find the creature whom destroyed her home, and find a way of drawing it out, perhaps with the help of another legendary Pokemon.
The study-work combo lasted right on through till Ren was sixteen, when she finally found what she was looking for. The creature which took everything from her. The monster which robbed her of everything and left behind nothing.
... Unfortunately, it had no name.
Though her hatred remained, Ren couldn't help but be fascinated with this Pokemon in particular. A creepy obsession over it. She both loved it and absolutely despised it at the same time, something not many trainers can experience, at least not on her magnitude. Legendaries had always caught Ren's eye, but this... this was something special.
Shortly after her discovery, her grandfather passed away. Though her feelings for the man weren't especially great, she still loved him, and the experience shook her up. After all, he'd been with her all this time, so how could she not? However, she soon came to realise that if one were to bury their emotions, pain becomes a non-existent factor. No more suffering, and definitely no more crying. And so she buried. After both ceremonies were complete, Ren had a long, hard think about life and it's meaning. Not life in general, but her life and what it has amounted to. 'Jack shit,' was the crude way of putting it. Her life, up until this point, had been pretty much meaningless. She didn't know what she was doing, or why she was doing it. The only time she truly became aware of herself was when she studied, and she knew she couldn't study for a living...
... Though she could become a Pokemon trainer and study in the field, learning more of the world outside.
The thought would've intimidated her if her emotions still existed, though once they'd been drowned out, nothing would stop her from moving forward. And so, after selling the house and getting an ample supply of essentials, money and other such items (not that one could get much with their cheap shack anyways), Ren began her journey to see Prof. Kalmia in Pureplain City, to begin her Pokemon journey.
Kind of Pokemon You Like: Dragons are her favourite type, though Ren does quite enjoy variation.
Items: 1x Potion
Pokédollars: 500p
Quirks/Talents/Aspirations/Other: Tends to look down on others, and sees herself as more knowledgeable on the subject of Pokemon than most. Likes studying Pokemon mythology, though has no real idea of what she wants to do. Talks too much. Has a secret thing for sweets.
Pokémon Name: Shyn, the Shinx!
Physical Appearance: Shyn's hair is exceptionally long for a Shinx, probably due to the fact that anyone whose ever approached him wielding scissors was electrocuted. (Standard appearance below.)
Sex: Male ♂
Type: Electric
Personality/Mood: Shyn's an odd little feller; a perfect fit to the similarly strange Ren Moyra. He doesn't really say a whole lot and can be exceptionally lazy at times, unless in a battle, which is when he's most hyper. The little electric doggo-wolf-thing is something of a masochist, and likes seeing others get angry out of spite. Though a little lonely, the pup ups his spirits through practical jokes on others, and as a result doesn't make a whole lot of Pokefriends. In fact he's better around humans than his own kind, being the product of a spoiled family and lab-dog, so he's a little more intelligent than most.
Quirks/Talents/Aspirations/Other: Likes reading (he can read picture books), eating, battling, taking pain, and having long, stylish hair. He hates hair cuts, crap food, and pretty much everything else aside from battling. Wants to evolve into a powerful Luxuray and have plenty of pretty Luxio babes wanting him.
Starting Moves: Tackle, Leer, Flash
Ability: Intimidate - Lower's the opponents attack by 1/4 when switched in. Can't be used multiple times on the same Pokemon.

Sorry, sorry, I meant my personal profile. Same thing, right? <br><br><font color="purple">I'm a roleplayer,</font> same as any around here. I've been doing it for about five years now, coming up to six in September. Its been quite the time, thinking back. I started out fresh as can be, understanding the basics of writing but never quite knowing how to become better, or become as great as those around me. In the end, I did the only thing I really knew at the time:<br><br>Write as much garbage as possible and hope for the best!<br><br>As you can see, <font color="purple"><span class="bb-i">that particular tactic fucking failed.</span></font><br>Jokes aside, I like to think I've developed a lot over the years, both as a writer and as a person. However, absolutely nothing can dissuade my weeaboo ways and supporting my OTP with all that I can freaking muster! If you haven't already guessed, said OTP is <font color="darkblue">Chrom</font> <font color="pink">x</font> <font color="purple">Robin</font> (Chrobin) from Fire Emblem: <font color="darkblue">Awakening.</font> Highly recommend the game, there's a reason (other than nintendo's cheapskate attitude) that it hasn't dropped in price, it's honestly the best place to start off in the series. And hey, maybe you'll end up addicted like me and want to buy every game on the 3DS like a fucking loony?<br><br>Speaking of loonies, the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeAWfrBMa2pytnTYnxAtiphQGJU3ojDD7">Fire Emblem Chrobin Comic Dub Project</a> has recently finished, so for those of you who also appreciate the best ship in existence, I highly recommend it. Hell, even if you're not interested in that, I do highly recommend watching it for those into fantasy love stories. The quality improves drastically with each episode, so trust me when I say by the end of it you should be thoroughly impressed. It has helped motivate me in ways I can hardly describe with words, and so I thought the least I could do was put this out there. Maybe it's not for everyone, but I know it was the perfect thing for me.<br>	<br><br>	<br>	</sub></div></th></tr></thead></table></div><br><img src="https://alynerd.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/tumblr_nvrmdwbdkf1ruyji8o1_1280.jpg?w=840" /><br><br><div class="bb-right"><font color="darkblue"><sub>"Do you think you can tip any of the scales in here?"</sub></font><br><font color="purple"><sub>"Chrom, for the love of Naga, I'm thinking..."</sub></font></div><hr class="bb-hr"><div class="table-responsive"><table class="bb-table table"><thead class="bb-thead"><tr class="bb-tr"><th class="bb-th"><font color="darkblue"><sub>"So I heard."<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	</sub></font></th><th class="bb-th"><div class="bb-center"><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DkvxGnlWwAEShes.jpg" /></div></th><th class="bb-th"><div class="bb-right"><sub><font color="purple">"There are better places<br>to take a nap than <br>on the ground, you know."<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	</font></sub></div></th></tr></thead></table></div><div class="hider-panel"><div class="hider-heading"><button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button" data-name="A Hymn For Goldilocks">A Hymn For Goldilocks [+]</button></div><div class="hider-body" style="display: none"><div class="bb-center"><img src="https://static.tumblr.com/b572f57912d8b5345269f9dc72e04359/yveunmd/zEwn8f4ke/tumblr_static_4fc6jqggm90kg048ok0kkw0ww_640_v2.jpg" /></div><br><br>There is a universe. No-one knows it's name, where gravity wasn't strong enough to bind matter together and no stars formed. And because no stars formed, no stars exploded. And because no stars exploded, no planets came about. And because no planets came about, there was no life.<br><br>There's another universe, no one knows it's name, where gravity was strong enough and did light the stars and planets came about and boy, they were gorgeous, planets in perpetual winter, planets in perpetual summer, planets that could rival the Garden of Eden and no bloody snakes! And on one of them, eventually, complex life evolved and one of the species developed large brains learned things like manners and dabbing, when they looked up at the stars and wonder what they were doing here. You called them octopuses, I suppose. Gosh, they were clever, for octopuses, and one of them, several million years in, almost wrote something in ink on the seafloor, a message to its friend. And the message almost read: "Hi! How are you?" And a few millennia later, space folder back on itself and, you get the idea. <br>Goodbye Octopi.<br><br>There's another universe, where life formed on every planet, in every solar system, and it was carbon-based, it was silicon based, it was made of crystals and water and plasma, it was made of quantum fields and light, and everything was alive, everything was doing a boogie, and it was everybody's birthday, everyday, relatively, and everyone got presents, and they had over a trillion languages, some written down, some only spoken, some conducted telepathically, and they bought a galactic civilization together, as a perfect unity, sharing stories, sharing technology, speaking a common tongue, understanding everything about how the cosmos been put together. And finally, when everything was sorted, the galaxies were arranged into perfect geometric formations, transmitting pure love, and wisdom, and birthday greetings to all species in the universe, for all time. Papercuts never happened, coke came in glass bottles, no one even remembered the word for war, everything was beautiful and nothing hurt. <br><br>And yet, for a quirk in their evolution, because resources weren't scarce enough on the planets these species developed on, not a single creature in the universe was conscious. Food was eaten and no-one enjoyed it. Movies were released, and there was no laughing, or crying. No-one chuckled at a joke. Ever.<br>Space collapsed back on itself, eventually, and there hadn't been a single moment of sentience in the entire history of creation.<br><br>There's another universe, where the strong force is too strong the weak force is too weak and nothing forms.<br>Another, where life develops too late when the Stars have all gone beyond the light boundary and there's nothing to even see. <br>Another with too many dimensions.<br>Another with not enough.<br>Another where time goes in the opposite direction, and species begin as gods, and wind backwards to cells, and never learn<br>to survive.<br>Another that only lasts milliseconds, and collapses in on itself, and heads straight back to oblivion.<br>And that's how it just might be, across all possible universes, across all possible space times. Problems with the laws of nature, not enough resources, missteps in evolution.<br>An atlas of dead-ends.<br><br>Then again, there is one exception.<br><br>There's another universe, a big one, where life is rare, where intelligent life is very rare indeed, the stars are very distant from each other, the laws of nature are very complex, it's extremely lonely for any species developing, and most never even develop at all, but somewhere, we believe, is a planet where the oceans are vast, and the climate is varied. Where the smartest species on the planet may have developed just the right mix of ambition and kindness.<br>And if you were to travel there, to this unbelievably rare statistical anomaly, to this impossibly lucky planet, where evolution, biology, chemistry, nae, the laws of physics themselves have come together to create sentient intelligent life, you may be able to catch the native inhabitants singing for joy. Of what an impossibly lucky, and rare position they find themselves in. <br>It is a chant of gratitude, a ritual of showing appreciation for ending up in perhaps the one universe, in the one solar system, on the one planet with all the basic ingredients for intelligent, conscious life.<br><br>~Exurb1a</div></div></div>
