Hey guys, just a heads up that next week from Monday the 8th I'll be away for five days on a hiking camp with my school. We'll be completely out of touch from any technology, so I won't be able to work on a CS at all. So because of this, I'd just like to know that if this generates enough interest, if I can reserve a spot, because I'm really excited for this.
Cheers,
GG

Hey guys, just a heads up if I happen to get accepted and this starts up by next week. From Monday the 8th I'll be away for five days on a hiking camp with my school. We'll be completely out of touch from any technology, so I won't be able to post at all. So if this does start up during that time, just know that I'm away and not purposefully ignoring the RP.
Cheers,
GG

Sorry KL, I've been busy with other happenings in my life at the moment.
Also, a heads up that next week from Monday the 8th I'll be away for five days on a hiking camp with my school. We'll be completely out of touch from any technology, so I won't be able to post at all. However, I will try to get a post up sometime this week.

Interested, I love the series. I hope this happens!
Here he is:
Name: Andy Hughes
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Andy has always been complimented on his appearance for the majority of his life, to the point that it's been getting annoying. He has a defined and firm jawline, short brown hair and almost grey eyes. His body is well-toned, thanks to the years he's spent training in MMA.
Number of times at this camp: This is Andy's first time at Camp Duskend, and it's fair to say that he's pretty darn excited.
Personality: Andy's a very social creature. He'll try to befriend anyone and everyone, and generally enjoys anyone's company, as long as they aren't complete assholes. He's very empathic, almost always understanding how a person feels, though not necessarily why. Goofball is his middle name, as he greatly enjoys having a good joke, and is caught messing around frequently. Note that this doesn't make him a troublemaker; while he occasionally stirs things up, it's rarely on purpose, and he always makes sure that no one gets hurt.
While he's a goofball at heart, Andy also has a very mature and sensible side. He hates seeing people suffering, be it mentally or physically, trying his hardest to help them out. His sense of justice is strong, often exploding in anger when witnessing an injustice. Even though it isn't his job, Andy feels a responsibility to help others in need, often putting others' needs in front of his, not caring for the effects it has on him.
He also has secrets; within him he keeps the reasons for his best friend's suicide, and he often mulls over them, letting the knowledge slowly eat him up.
History: Andy was born in the city of Brisbane, Australia. He'd spent the first fifteen years of his life there, making friends, attending school, y'know, the usual things a teen would do. At the age of eight, he took up training in mixed martial arts, and has kept on doing so ever since. He'd won a number of tournaments, though he never bragged about doing so, and this earned him the respect of many, both in and out of school. Life was good; nothing thus far had gone wrong, and Andy had no worries. This all changed, however, with one fateful text message from his best friend and former girlfriend, Stephanie Shelton.
Andy, help me. Please help.
Rushing to their hideout in the bush, Andy arrived half an hour after receiving the text... Half an hour too late. What he saw changed him forever. In front of him hung his best friend from a single rope tied around her neck, attached to a thick tree branch overhead. Below her was a note, stating her reasons for committing suicide and saying her single goodbye: to Andy.
Weeks after the funeral, Andy's parents decided to move from the country. They were doing their son no good staying there; all that was left were reminders of what had happened. And so, off to America they went, leaving friends, family and memories behind.
Why are you at this camp?: Andy's parents thought that after moving to America, Andy's mood would change. If anything, however, it had worsened, and they knew not what to do. Thinking on it for a while, they found the perfect solution: Summer camp. Andy had always enjoyed camping and the outdoors, and with the coming summer, his parents decided to send him off to Camp Duskend.
Miscellaneous: Andy finds comfort in listening to My Chemical Romance, the band which Stephanie had frequently pestered him about.

I hope this isn't too late to join:
Name: Sonic, the Blue Blur
Universe: Sonic the Hedgehog
Appearance:
Personality: Sonic is free-spirited and adventurous, always on the move. He hates being constrained to one place, as he's a drifter at heart, and loves nothing more than freedom. His passion for life and hatred of evil constantly sees him at odds against many threats.
He's easygoing and care-free, but his temper is short, he gets bored easily and is usually rather impatient. He's honest and keeps his promises as best as he can.
Sonic often acts on impulse, which is often seen as a reckless trait by others. As said in the Sonic Wiki, his personality is a juxtaposition of kindness and ferocity. He's kind-hearted and strongly opposes oppression of any kind, exploding in anger when witnessing evil before trying his hardest to get rid of it.
Though easygoing, his care-free nature can make him come off as egotistical and sarcastic at times.
Powers
Super Speed and Enhanced Physical Traits - Sonic can run at speeds greater than Mach 1, which is 761mph, or 1,225km/h. He has enhanced durability, able to take slightly more damage than usual. He's also reached peak conditioning, able to run for hours on end. However, he can and will get tired, depending on how much he exerts himself.
Spin Dash and Homing Attack - To pull off a Spin Dash, Sonic remains stationary and curls into a ball, spinning at supersonic speeds. His quills harden into razor-sharp spikes. He then "dashes", still a spinning ball, and cuts through almost anything that may be in his way. For his Homing Attack, Sonic jumps into the air and somersaults, targeting something before homing directly into said target at supersonic speeds.
Weaknesses: Sonic cannot swim at all, and is scared out of his theoretical pants when in proximity with a large body of water. If he isn't given at least eight hours of sleep a night, his top speed drops significantly.
Brief Bio: During his life, Sonic had stopped Doctor Eggman's schemes an uncountable number of times, with the help of his friends; namely Tails the fox and Knuckles the echidna. As of the events of this RP, he's a well-known hero of his world, and was in the middle of eating his favourite food in the world, a chilli dog, before being transported to the Web.
Equipment: Cuffed gloves and friction-resistant shoes.
Others: As mentioned in the bio, Sonic's favourite foods are chilli dogs, and absolutely can not live without them.

May I reserve a spot? Life has me unable to post until tomorrow, if not the weekend.
Hey guys. I won't be able to post tonight, but tomorrow I should definitely be able to. For now I'm off to do the ALS ice bucket challenge...
I agree with XecutionerRex and Fiegling. Do what you want, and we'll follow. I look forward to this :).
I've been to plenty of camps, though they aren't the usual ones you guys are used to. By this I mean that we'd sleep under tarps out in the open, no cabins whatsoever. Occasionally we'd have tents. So I personally don't have much experience with American summer camps (probably because I'm Australian), but I guess I could provide input in some of the survival aspects, though not much. The locations varied with each camp. One I have coming up is on a mountain, which we hike over.
As with a name, I'm not much use either. But as I said, I could provide some (if only little) help with understanding some of the survival aspects.
