Bio

I'm Randomness. I also go by others names when it's unavailable, but those are usually some variation of Randomness or Random in general.

I like anime, video games, and science. I'm currently in school studying to become an radiologic technologist. I'm in the initial stages, so I'm on my way. My favorite anime is Eureka Seven, and my favorite video game is a tie between Kingdom Hearts and Etrian Odyssey.

I have several story ideas, but currently lack motivation to write them out. I have plenty of notes for some of them so when I finally get around I'm prepared. That said, I absolutely enjoy group story telling like you do through role playing. One of my interests involved is world building and the connections between them if any.

One of my characters travels between worlds, dimensions and universes. What these are meant to be are different RPs. There seems to be some taboo around such a character, but I feel that is should be judged on a case by case basis. The idea of a seasoned character who has been on many adventures being able to share stories in passing sounds like a fun idea. I thought it would be an interesting idea that those stories could be from other RPs. He isn't meant to highjack the current RP, or be over powered. I admit, I can see that concern. Really though, he is meant to be an eccentric character with stories and treasures not before seen. The effects of these stories are meant to be entertaining, like fairy tales to the current cast. And what treasures he has or can use I'd restrict to what makes sense in the current world. But like I said before, it should be case by case. A learner, and a story teller. I think it's fun to link concept together through this character so the story could live on in new ways and perhaps give new RPs a different kind of character. Without upending everything of course.

I have had a character sitting for a while whose ability was the power to either gain, lock, or leech other peoples abilities. Not limited to powers, but also skills and strength. None of it is permanent. He gains the power for a short time. If he leeches a skills he has if for longer. For example, if he copies a skill, he has it for 5 hours. If he locks a skill on someone else, it's locked for five hours. If he leeches the skill (essentially both copying a skill, and locking it at the same time), it lasts for 10 hours. Numbers are for example, prone to change. It's also worth mentioning that he can only do this with direct skin contact. Would that be acceptable?

A follow up question, this character was originally designed as a technological business giant. Converting that to your RP lore, I would say he essentially locked his own ability to bypass gene checks since it would simply be inactive (I'm sure nonpowered people hold a dormant version of said gene), continued running his company, and makes a profit providing the Peacekeepers with equipment, developing technology, and funding quarantine cities as his personal fish in a barrel acting as a sort of pseudo-villain. He goals would be an ally to the peacekeepers, keeping them of his back by not revealing himself, and stopping the resistance since it would also interfere with his profit margin., all the while go fishing for abilities he can use to further these goals.
Perhaps that was a little aggressive.

I've browsed the site a couple times to get a feel for the layout, and while I'm still a little confused on how things are done, I'm intrigued. I'm not necessarily new to role playing, but my experience is limited. I'll try to be active enough for the most part hoping school and work don't get in the way too much.

I have several ideas that I want to use as characters and RP settings, but my current platform isn't very active (only one existing RP of my own creation with a post every week and a half). I'm not looking for anything super fast, but if I can get away with a couple posts a week, I'd be happy.
