The Walking Dead-From the beginning -Closed

Name: Lassar Calhoun

Gender: Male

Age: 60

Birthplace: New York, New York

Appearance: Lassar stands at 5'11, 161 lbs.



Personality: Lassar doesn't give a shit. He does what he wants, when he wants, damned be the consequences. He loves booze, pot, guns, and not giving shits. He likes the girlies, punks the fuckwads, and asks for spare change whenever possible, because dammit, pot ain't free.

Occupation before the breakout: Hobo, former Green Beret.

Skills: Crack shot with firearms, knows knife fighting.

Fears/incompetencies: Lassar sucks at everything he isn't good at. There's a reason he's a hobo. Man is too incompetent to hold down any job.

Equipment: Pfeifer-Zeliska .600 Nitro Express revolver, Sig Saur MPX rifle, foot long deer horn handle bowie knife, six inch adjustable shaving mirror, a leather belt, various bottles of liquor and bags of weed, an old dusty overcoat filled with holes, steel toed boots.







Group: Unaffiliated

History: Lassar grew up an only child, and he liked it that way. A loner, a rebel, an outcast. It was as if he were a separate species from other members of the human race. Perhaps in some ways, he was. He operated on a level entirely different from others. How so? He simply had no shats to bequeath. He joined the Marines at 18, after having competed in several state shooting championships.

When he left the core at age 38, he was a Green Beret who had seen death in Afghanistan, South Africa, Syria, and Korea. Regardless of his record, he knew of nothing else but war, and descended into a stupor of substance abuse to force his inner badass into hiding, lest he be driven mad like a caged tiger. Not that he gave a shit. Then came the zombies. Now Lassar has returned for one last crusade, to kill shit and not give said shit away.

Dangan Ronpa: Reloaded

@Haru Nyan

Yes, he is the main character, but I am a humble genius. I will allow the main character to be vulnerable! All the more that the girls shall flock to his glory, huddling in shelter beneath the ebony warmth of his man titties.

Talent: Ultimate Gangbanger
Height/Weight: 5'10, 185 lbs
Appearance:

Wardrobe: Jeans, sneakers, white T-shirt. He often takes his shirt off.

Personality: Louie is a chummy thuggy who is as quick to make friends as he is to break them, but only if they offend him. He is secretly insecure about his weight, and very often mistakes simple harmless comments as dire insults. Otherwise, he's intensely loyal and passionate, with the soul of a true wannabe rapper.

Likes: Food, white girls, fighting, and smoking weed.

Dislikes: Any supposed mentions of his weight, animals, authority figures.

Trivia: Louie grew up in Hoboken, and frequently went to the zoo after hours to fight the marmots.

Huh, I must have really made a fucking bad application to get this sort of response! Odd thing is, I get this same reaction frequently on other threads that I forget.



At any rate, I'll probably not look back to see what happened. I love using dopey characters, so that probably had something to do with it. I'll hold you to the P.M thing, but it'll be about two days before you get it. Gotta make a proper non-meta deck that works decent, and a character that isn't as immensely offensive as I assume the first one was.

I've forgotten you and no bells are ringing. I wonder why that is?

Is this roleplay really, really full?

WHEREVER I MAY ROAM - Max Vs. Zande

@KOgaming
Hey, I made a mistake. I thought your elbow was a punch the entire time! Just assume the initial stab attempt was aimed for the armpit, not the crook of the arm and Zande would have ducked for a takedown regardless, so nothing changes, as all of the following would have occurred anyways. Sorry if I confused you about that! You probably thought I was a silly goose, calling an elbow a punch.

On a side note, I noticed that you're giving the "would" style a try. It feels clunky and strange the first few times, I know. It's not a rule that you have to apply it, but some players just find it convenient to apply "would" in freestyle fights, where the future is almost always uncertain. I wouldn't use the word "will", though, unless it's in conversation.

Also, I don't want to seem presumptuous or overbearing, but don't reveal many of your possible responses if you want to catch someone off guard. You describing the possible ways Max could stifle Zande's offence tells me that you're trying to funnel me into a situation that's comfortable for you by giving me reasons to not take various courses of action. I could in turn take said courses of action and then, because you told me what your character would do in advance, turn the tables on you because I know what you can and can't physically do in those situations, which you've given me my pick of the litter to choose from. The punch that scores the knockout is always the one the other guy doesn't see coming. Keep your aces hidden and have a flexible backup plan for every attack you launch, like a cartoon mallet with a spring loaded boxing glove. Any attack that doesn't have a trap or ulterior motive hidden behind it is what we call an "empty move". Try to plan out moves that are "spring loaded".

Sorry if my advice isn't needed, for all I know you may already have figured all of that out and I'm only coming off as an annoying mom!

WHEREVER I MAY ROAM - Max Vs. Zande

@KOgaming

Zande did indeed continue the charge, and was astounded as his opponent whipped out that good old Saturday Night Smackdown shit. He had taken this foe for the practical, by the book sort. The knight's legs succeeded in securing Zande's neck! Any lesser man would have been launched head over heels into the next life, but Zande was a veteran grappler. Before he could be hauled off of his feet, he'd simultaneously lower his center of gravity and try to wrap both long arms about Max's midsection, intending to drop skidding to his knees with a wild, screaming battlecry, potentially driving Max's helm into the blade or flat of his own sword (assuming it collapsed horizontally upon the ground when forced forwards by Zande's momentum and Max's positioning) with a kneeling Texas piledriver. Even without the sword, the knight could easily suffer a broken neck from having both men's combined weight come crashing down onto his vertebrae. Sitting up at the last moment to try and swing the sword at Zande wouldn't work, for the headhunter would be leaning over steeply as he dropped to prevent his opponent from having enough room to avoid the punishing fall or to efficiently withdraw his blade out from beneath himself.

"AYEEEEEE!!"

WHEREVER I MAY ROAM - Max Vs. Zande

@Doc Doctor

If you mean my persistant use of the word "would" in my posts, that's actually a very common fight writing technique used to prevent autoing and overextending. For example, if I state *Zande swung his axe", that's assuming the enemy allowed Zande to swing the axe in the first place, and if they had preemptively planned to interrupt my action, I'd have wound up restricting my character's potential responses in addition to having autoed.

As such, I write it out as *Zande would swing his axe*, as that's what my character would do if circumstances permitted it. I take very little for granted (I'm very used to having my actions countered and whatnot) so I use that technique a lot, especially in situations where a little mistake can make a bit difference. Besides, how else would I create setups? Take my first post, for example.

If Max humoured the black guy and got to within ten yards of the rock, Zande would leap out and wave his arms in a menacing fashion.

If I'm describing cause and effect scenarios, I need to use future tense. It's the best way to get things to work out in the way you visualize them, in a world where every certain move may score you a crushed skull.

WHEREVER I MAY ROAM - Max Vs. Zande

@KOgaming

Zande had rushed in and spat blood at Max's eyes as Max launched his punch, so that Max would be too distracted to notice his punching arm getting stabbed. In your post Max reacted to the blood in time and pulled his punch, and so Zande in turn aimed not for the arm but the exposed armpit, left vulnerable because Max would be shielding his eyes with his right arm up. After that Zande intends to grapple Max to the ground with a single leg takedown, desiring to try and achieve full mount.

It's like this picture, but Zande's right arm is reaching up because the knife held in his hand, ideally, would be buried in Max's right armpit.


I'm afraid I need to stick to my tried and true writing style. I see these fights as stories to be written, and I write them out in such a way as pleases my fancy. Otherwise I have difficulty visualising what my character is doing. That's just how I function! If you find what I've written confusing, feel free to ask for more detail.
