Surviving: The End (Season One)

@Azseth

And you know the worst part of it all Az? I had this wonderful idea for a schizophrenic named Jones, goes by the name Bones. I tend to find characters with mental problems very enjoyable to write as I have a very high functioning form of Asperger's, and my neighbor when i was a kid had downs syndrome, so I got to learn plenty about psychology early on. Seeing how the human mind works is always so fun, and those with a mental condition add that little bit more. After all we all still deal with the same problems those of use with different minds see it so differently.

Would've had Bones' schizophrenia actually helping him cope a lot as he'd still see people even though they were dead or worse because his mind uses his schizophrenia as a protection from real insanity. Occasionally even they'd personify his senses making him think they're there since they tell him things like they hear a reanimated or they smell carrion.

Surviving: The End (Season One)

If I already wasn't working to try and get into two roleplays, and feel it would be rude to go back on them for this one, I will say I find this very interesting, but unless both other RPs fall through I won't be seeking a position.

also just checked to see how long the post was to start, and happened to spy this:

-Skimmed or skipped up to here? DO NOT JOIN MY RP! Take the time to read the above shit. It kind of matters.

EDIT: and note I HATE zombie apocalypses. I find them to be the honestly weakest of possible apocalypses. From what I gather this doesn't do too much original with that, but something in me right now makes it sound so fun to find a poor guy scavenging desperately for food whacking him over the head with a branch and throwing him out as bait while I clear out the rest and run. It's been too long since I've played a real asshole like that.

Fallout: Capital Graveyard

@Kingfisher So we have an evil merchant/slaver. A enclave soldier, a medic from Rivet city, and BoS Paladin... I think one of us is going to end up shooting someone else.

@Apollosarcher

and I'm writing up mine, a highly skilled hermit who can either be your saving grace or your damnation based on how you treat him.

Fallout: Capital Graveyard

Alright I'll get to this later I'm heading out of town today, so I'll be back and writing tomorrow.

Fallout: Capital Graveyard

On the surface that sounds fair enough, as long as they aren't extremely tanked up power armours or something. There will be more of an emphasis on overall storytelling than specific character traits, but if you want to draw inspiration from certain perks when building your character then that should be fine.

@Kingfisher

Well of course this is a roleplay it better be a solid story or I will be the first to be disappointed by you. Also i tend to avoid power armor just not that kind of player, I just want to build this actual character in fallout to get the appearance, and I have some very nice non vanilla clothes/armor. Possibly one of the guns (It's a remington 870. favorite shotgun in the world.)

<Snipped quote by jasonwolf>

I was under the impression that if you did the Pint-sized slasher thing then Braun just regenerated them all again afterwards, but it's been a while since I played through that mission. Ah okay, I getcha, that should be fine.

I've already got the character creation system sorted out, but yes SPECIAL will play a role. I may implement perks, but that is yet to be decided.

Depends on what the mod is. If its vastly world/lore changing then no.

@Kingfisher

I'm fairly certain if you killed them all since you were from the outside or something you actually got them all killed, but either way. they are potatos.

Mostly it would have been some reasonable custom armors/weapons and if Perks were a thing include the wonderful More Perks/Traits mod.

Fallout: Capital Graveyard

everyone is dead in tranquility lane. either end leaves all the characters dead besides the lone wanderer and his dad. No by squating I mean he comes in later and is scrounging the old tech. I'm planning a high Int and Agi character

Also I suggest you have us use the actual things from the game to make characters our SPECIAL, our skills, our perks.

Though now again questions is it ok if I use some stuff from mods since this is an RP?

Fallout: Capital Graveyard

two more questions:

what's up in the republic of Dave?

and I'd like to start a character who is squatting in Vault 112 is that alright?

Fallout: Capital Graveyard

You mean the institute right? An institution tends to refer to asylums (though technically its means a number of things). The Boston Institute is the fallout 4 faction with the androids.

Priest & Hawthorne Investigations - An Urban Fantasy Adventure!

Alright working hard now. Not going with the mute, but I'm challenging myself to earn a more supernatural character. I will edit in all the details as I go just too excited right now.

Markiel Rovalnski

Name: Markiel Rovalnski. Mark.

Gender: Male

Race/Species: Human (Warlock)

Age: Twenty six. Clearly in his mid twenties.

Appearance: Mark has dark brown hair kept a little shaggy above the collar and out of his eyes. He has an average complexion. His features are sharp in that they are well defined rather than soft and rounded. His eyes are sunk back with a clear darkness around them. The most visually distinct feature is his amber irises the same color as his mother and his grandfather.

Mark stands six foot three and is muscular but lean. His body distinctly lacks a lot of body fat. This does cause Mark to get a colder a bit faster than other people. He prefers to wear simple clothes like jeans and T-shirts. For footwear he’d stick to his favorite pair of hiking boots even in less reasonable situations like urban areas. He has a number of other clothes: coats, vests, and such which are worn when the situation calls for it. His preference is efficiency over elegance in his fashion choices.

Personality: Mark is hungry for knowledge. New information is what he lives for. Being taught by his grandfather in traditional witchcraft Mark was exposed to the paranormal very early. Knowing there was more than just what he was learning in school made him want to know more since he had only been given this little window into the “real” world. He wants to learn more about his family and about this world he’s apparently a part of. He knows very well the danger of knowledge, and has the self control to not go too far.

Mark is not a leader. He’d much prefer to let someone else lead and take charge of everything. He has a good tactical mind and is wonderful with puzzles, but would rather be consulted rather than the end all be all. Mark likes to be prepared even if that requires getting someone else to scout ahead.

Mark does have a bit of a temper. Usually leading to a physically aggressive outcome. This can vary from a punch in the face to freezing all the saliva in your mouth. Mostly this goes back to his need to fight back against bullies from his middle school and early high school years. Words tended not to work, so a fist became his main option. He’s normally logical and reasonable, but he has his moments where he has to stand up for himself with some force.

Powers, Traits, and Abilities:

Mark as a semi-trained warlock has access to a variety of spells. The majority are simple charms and cantrips to handle menial labor meant for the modern warlock to make life simpler. Things like: telekinesis, floating lights, sparks for lighting a fire. He did complete the first manuscript on divining and enhanced senses a collection passed down through the family. The collection of spells enhance his five natural senses as well as letting him act as a divining rod. He can only have one active at a time and casting and dispelling them takes him about two minutes.

Later on he discovered a polish manuscript on cryomancy which he has begun studying from. He has learned how to draw heat out of things rather handily. This allows him to freeze a gallon of water instantly with it taking around thirty more seconds for each added gallon. He also can condense the water in the air to make a sphere of ice about the size of a baseball.

As his grandfather was a true Pole he learned Polish very early on and is now fluent in it. He also has learned an ancient Polish dialect used by his ancestry. The only sport he ever got into was Archery, and has become an awarded archer over the years. He still maintains his skills though mostly for recreation. He did hunt, but never had enough need for it to justify letting an entire animal go to waste.

Mark is a lover of reading preferring informative books rather than stories. He is a speed reader able to pick out words of importance very fast and carry on. His research into the paranormal helps him understand the logic of it how it doesn’t just come out of no where.

Mark’s greatest skill is not his magic nor his library of knowledge, but his innovation. Experimentation has let Mark turn his small arsenal into a swiss army knife of abilities. For example his ability to condense water in the air has been used to to make shapes besides just a sphere. He has cast it into the cracks of a door to pop a lock open, and used his water freezing ability to solidify the water in someones mouth making an efficient temporary muzzle. He always is working to come up with a new use to his old tricks.

Background:

Markiel Rolvanski is the grandson of warlock Gravin Rolvanski, and son of witch Lurena Rolvanski. Gravin was an immigrant from Poland leaving a few years before WWII moving to the U.S. and staying in Maine. Lurena was born not too long after. As first born she inherited the magical blood of her family tree as would Mark when he was born.His mortal father has mostly been irrelevant providing a connection to the mundane world. He was a good and simple man, but did at least made sure Mark realized that humanity was still a worthy part of the world. A tether to his own humanity.

Every saturday night since he was five Markiel would spend time with his grandfather being trained in magics. He learned the simplest charms first as modern warlocks rarely needed to use the darker arts as well as the risks that came with using such powers in this modern world. Around the age of thirteen his grandfather began teaching Markiel the family manuscripts on divining and sensory enhancement. Markiel studied these spells intensely some of the spells dating back to before the creation of english.

At eighteen he headed off to college pursuing a degree in archaeology hoping to use this as a means to fund searches for more magic in his homeland of Poland. While at a dig site of a supposed religious structure Markiel discovered a magically preserved manuscript on cryomancy. As well he was able to deduce the site was an ancient summoning circle and has kept many notes on it curious if he will ever need them again possibly for his own use.

Upon returning home he was told that his grandfather had passed from a brain aneurysm. When Mark left Gravin was in near perfect health. He was very healthy for being late ninties. Mark felt something was wrong. He knew something was wrong. He went to his grandfather’s house. He lived alone now his grandmother having passed some time ago sad, but she was simply old. Mark used his family’s magic to inspect the entire house and discovered this was not just an aneurysm it was a murder, an execution. Someone had carefully unlocked the front door and gotten inside way nary a trace mark’s enhanced senses let him find a trail of footsteps that were too large for his grandfathers and were too shallow for the MTs who came after he was found dead. this man was clearly sneaking around. In his grandfather’s bedroom he sensed a strong magical aura, but he knew that his grandfather kept all of his magic to his workshop as he was an enchanter in his youth. This magic was too strong for a cantrip. Clearly someone with a knowledge of magic was there the night mark’s grandfather died.

Mark explained all of this to his mother who hadn’t even thought to look into the matter as she was too overcome with grief. She reminded him of a phone number he was only to use in the most dire of emergencies, magical emergencies. He made the call, and soon two men of arrived. They began their own investigation of the crime, and mentioned a couple of leads. One that seemed very likely to them was a witch hunter with some sort of magic device or even an advanced piece of technology. Mark did his best to provide information disgusted to see that someone had killed his grandfather a good man simply because he was different. Before they left sadly unable to find enough to pursue anything Mark insisted they explain why his family knew about this group. As it turned out his grandfather’s enchanting was typically of devices for PHI. It was how he was able to come over to America in the first place. Mark had one question left at that point. Where could he sign up?

Mark needed answers, but also this organization had gotten his grandfather out of Poland right before the biggest war in human history likely saving his life. Even if his grandfather had paid off his work Mark felt it was time for him to put his skills to a better use. Do something to honor his grandfather’s memory.
