Lost World: The Lost Expedition

Lucas Byrne

"That is good Jack," Lucas said calmly. It was good to hear that he was doing okay despite the heat. Lucas does not know how wearing a leather jacket in the Amazon heat would fare, but Jack still seems okay. But now, with everyone caught up and ready to go. Lucas took the lead and the group continued their trek into the jungle.

A short time later, as the group made its way through the Amazon jungle, Lucas studied his journal to make sure they were on the right path, and he took a moment to stop as he looked ahead. He could spot something in the distance, something made of what looked like white stone among the foliage, something that looked like something rising out of the jungle. Lucas took a few driven steps ahead, and it became clearer. What looked like the entrance of some kind.

Lucas mood became elevated, finally. He thought they had reached the temple in Coswall's notes. Lucas semi-walked ahead to get an even better look to double-check. Lucas could spot the entrance and the front of the ruin as it stood about eight feet tall and was wide enough that they could all walk in together.

Though it looked like the rest of the temple was covered from head to toe in foliage, it was hard to make out the white stone the temple was made of, but the entrance was clear and open. A blessing, and as he reached the entrance. Lucas could make out what he thought were symbols that lined the entrance. The plants and branches were making it hard to make out. The temple did not look like a regular temple you would find in South America.

But that does not matter to him, they found the temple, and according to the notes, the path to the Lost World lay inside. "Where did he take you mom?" Lucas said in a hushed tone.

Turning back to the group, he waved and shouted to get their attention. "I found the temple! Just like the notes said!" To say that Lucas was happy was an understatement. The only clue to where Coswall's expedition went, and he did not want to find out that he was wrong somehow. But here they are, and rather than wait for the group, Lucas's driven nature caused him to walk inside.

As his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he walked inside and turned on his flashlight. Lucas could make out statues, tall ones that lined the entrance room on both sides, and they seemed to look like humans wielding some kind of weapon. Looking like a sword or a short spear. Along with more symbols on the walls, big ones. Some looked like animals that Lucas could not recognize. Plus, places on the walls where torches were. All unlit and Lucas did not bring a lighter with him. A oversight on his part.

It did not mind Lucas much, this is something for an archaeologist to study and figure out. Lucas just cares where Coswall went. So he brought his flashlight down to his journal and scanned the pages on where to go next.

hello

Hello and welcome to the site. I hope you find something you like here.

Lost World: The Lost Expedition

So once Flarbinia posts or enough time has passed, I will move the group to the temple and move the rp foward.

Lost World: The Lost Expedition

Lucas Byrne

Lucas listened to Wade's story and was surprised by how the story ended. "Punching a ghost, that is something you do not hear every day." He chuckled a bit and took another sip from his canteen. "But that is one way of dealing with the paranormal." While Lucas is not a firm believer in the paranormal or supernatural. He is more of a seeing-is-believing person and has yet to see anything that could count as something beyond normal.

"I unfortunately do not have any stories like that," Lucas wished he did. "I doubt we will face the paranormal out here or in the Lost World, but who knows." He shrugged, "Coswall's notes about the Lost World were few, but he was obsessed with trying to get there." That was what most of the notes he found were about, and honestly, he has no clue why Coswall was obsessed with the Lost World. But something egged him on, and Lucas does not know what.

Then he heard the familiar voice of Taras as he caught up with the group. Lucas caught the joke despite the Taras's thick accent. "Yeah, that would be nice," he was half joking. A truck would be nice, but with all of the trees, vegetation, mud, and more. It is the safer bet to just hike it on foot. Even if it can be miserable, mainly on the day it rained, but Lucas's spirit is still high. Just a little bit more to the temple.

But so far, they just have to wait for some more of the group before Lucas feels like going on. Despite how much he wants to scout ahead. "I wonder how Jack is doing?" Saying it to Wade. Jack, the least prepared of the group, but like the rest. He wants to know what happened to his father, and so far. He has been managing to keep up. So Lucas will wait a bit for more.

Hello!! I would like to apply (´▽`)

@D3AD ST4R

Okay good to hear, the link to the OOC is here, OOC

Lost World: The Lost Expedition

CS

Jack Wilson Jr.

Gender

Male

Age

28

Appearance

Brown hair. Green eyes. Wears a brown leather jacket with blue jeans and sunglasses

Personality

Jack Wilson Jr. is stubborn. He prefers to be called by his first name, as he sees "Junior" as mockery. While he may have had a strained relationship with his father, Jack Wilson Jr. is willing to risk it all to save his old man so that he can reconcile with Jack Wilson Sr. and bring him home.

Jack Wilson Jr. has no interests in anything that might be discovered in the "Lost World", preferring riding motorcycles to looking for fossils, undiscovered wildlife, and/or ancient artifacts.

Skills

Marksman with Handguns. Riding a motorcycle. Motorcycle repair

Personal Belongings/Equipment

Brown leather jacket. Sunglasses. Colt 1911 with some bullets. Hiking boots. Hammock with mosquito net. Canteen. Tent with a tarp

Missing Loved One

Jack Wilson Sr. Balding with greying hair. Dressed for jungle hiking

Background

Born in Oklahoma, Jack Wilson Jr. did not share the same passion as his father, preferring motorcycles over digging in the dirt for broken pottery. He spent his free time reading magazines about motorcycles or reading books about motorcycles or watching shows and movies about motorcycles. His father's busy schedule meant that they rarely spent time together (which exacerbated the rift). However, they were able to bond on the firing range with the family heirloom, Jack's aim getting better with every visit. Jack Wilson Jr. graduated from High School with flying colors. Jack Wilson Sr. was so proud that he gave him a motorcycle as present. Jack thanked his father before taking it for a ride. He spent hours working on it, putting his knowledge of motorcycles to use. He saw it as the first part of a dream come true.

He spent years on the road, riding from town to town, sleeping in motels. He would occasionally receive letters from his father, always about the expeditions he was on, the artifacts he found, or both. Some of them were stories of success. Others were failures or simply getting canned due to lack of funding. He didn't dwell on them for longer than it took to read them. Motorcycles were his strong suite, not ancient history. Jack outright stopped reading them when he received one from his father that said that Jack Wilson Sr. had signed on with Henry Coswall. He had heard that Coswall was a crackpot who was bleeding his own accounts dry trying to find some lost world because he couldn't get anyone to fund his failed efforts, so he thought that it made no sense that his father would risk his career and reputation joining some harebrained adventure. He continued spending his life on the road until he was told that his father was missing and presumed dead. He began spending more time at biker bars than on his own bike, trying to escape from the guilt of not speaking to his father one last time one bottle at a time.

Jack Wilson Jr. received an unexpected invite from someone named Lucas Bryne. He had never met the man before, but the mention of the expedition got his attention. Jack thought for a moment and headed to meet the man who had sent him the letter. He arrived, introduced himself to Bryne, and shook his hand before asking him how he was going to help him find out what happened to his father. Jack Wilson was shocked when he heard that they were going to South America and argued that if the authorities couldn't find them, there was little chance they were going to get the job done. He was told that such a drastic measure might be the only way that they would be able to reunite with their lost loved ones or retrieve their remains. Jack Wilson Jr. agreed to join on the condition that he gets to confront Henry Coswall if the leader of the failed expedition is still alive. He considered asking how their group was going to get their weapons into South America, but he quickly realized that Lucas had probably already figured that out. He bought what he could afford before meeting up with the others.

@Flarbinia

Your CS is fine, but I suggest adding more stuff to both the personality and personal belongings/equipment sections. Since for personality, it should have more than that. For the personal belongings/equipment part, unless you want him to be totally unprepared for the journey to the Lost World and have to rely on others to survive. Add some more survival gear, and that is all I have to say right now.

Lost World: The Lost Expedition(Recruiting)

Lost World: The Lost Expedition

Five years ago, an expedition of little renown was led by a man known as Henry Coswall. A man known infamously in academic circles as a crackpot who seemed convinced that there was one last piece of land that seemed to exist that remained undiscovered to humanity. A place he called the Lost World. He used the last of his funds to fund an expedition to find this lost world, and both he and his team ventured to South America. Never to be seen again, and it is guessed they died on Henry's mad quest.

But why should you care, you ask? Simple, while I am not interested in Henry's mission or seeking to confirm if he did find his lost world. What I do care about is that my mother was hired by him and went missing. Maybe dead somewhere in the jungles of the Amazon. I want to know what happened to my mother and what her fate was.

After painstaking research into what I could find of Henry's works. I found the route that Henry and his team took in South America, and while I could do this alone. I remembered how I was not the only one who lost a parent or someone close to Henry's obsession.

This is where you come in and why I am contacting you. I know you are like me and had someone close on Henry's expedition when they disappeared. Which is why I am inviting you to this expedition to find out what really happened to our loved ones. But I should warn you that if I am correct about what I have found about Henry's quest. It may be dangerous, and I cannot say when we will return from this. But if you want to know for sure what happened to our loved ones. Then meet me at this address, and I will fill you in on what I know, and we will find out the truth, and I hope to see you there.

While the group is unaware of what they will truly find in their quest. Taking them from South America to someplace else entirely, braving the dangers of this Lost World. If they can find the truth of the lost expedition. Finding out more than they initially thought about the Lost World that Henry sought to find. Will they survive and find the truth, or become lost like Henry's expedition? Only time will tell.

Overview

Hello and welcome to the rp. So in this rp set in 2026. You will be playing a member of an expedition who lost someone close who was in Henry Coswall's lost expedition and seeks to find out what the expedition's true fate was. Which the player characters will find themselves in what seems like another world where dinosaurs still exist, along with other things. Like a sentient race native to the Lost World and other humans.

Near the start of the player characters' journey to find what happened to Henry Coswall's expedition will discover an intact but abandoned tree house. That will be the player characters' base during their stay in the Lost World. Along with having clues to what their next step will be. Which I will be allowing players to choose where to go during the plot, out of the options I give in IC, and if no one can decide, then I will pick where to go plot-wise.

Now, when it comes to the player characters. You can make what you want as long as they are willing to go on the expedition, and once they have been accepted and the IC launched. I will talk to you about your character's missing loved one and how they will be discovered during the rp. Who can be anything like a parent, partner, child, a relative, or just someone your character cared about. Also, for character pics, either a real-life claim or a drawn one. No anime pictures.

I will also list locations and info about the Lost World in the OOC as the RP progresses, as the player characters discover more of the Lost World.

That is it, and while the RP is running. I am looking still looking for some more players and since the IC has started recently. It is still a good time for people to join. If anyone has any questions than feel free to ask.
