I'm not asking you to forgive me. I'll never understand or forgive myself. And if I die, so help me, I'll laugh at myself for being an idiot. There's one thing I do know and that is that I love you.

@FantasyChic It is extremely difficult to do, but yes there are ways around that. Your character just needs to be creative. Deon, for example... he was born in Beta but lives in Alpha, but his job is at The Spit which is in Beta so his birthright AND job allow him passage between districts.

@Raid No worries. Even though I live in America my job puts me on an "Australian" time schedule.
Well the majority of this roleplay stems from being a sandbox, so you are free to do as you wish if you want to set up your own little plot-device to get other characters into it. I have posted my first intro post, bringing in both my characters and they are headed in separate directions which could both start their own little plots. So you could jump in on one of those too, if you wanted. It's pretty open lol.



I’m a rockstar, I’m a dealer

“Seventy-two…”

I’m a servant, I’m a leader

“Seventy-three…”

I’m a saviour, I’m a sinner, I’m a killer

“Seventy-four…”

I’ll be anything you want me to be-

The ominous sound of a click echoed through the nearly empty basement room, the once heavy bass and singer's dead-pan tone stopping abruptly, leaving only the grunting sounds coming from a male as he continued his seventy-fifth vertical sit up. Confused as to what happened to his music, the shirtless male relaxed his body down, allowing the metal clasps around his ankles to hold his full weight. After repositioning, he arched his back to take a look, putting his body in an awkward-looking, bended angle. The culprit as to who had turned the music off was soon recognized as his golden-colored eyes met with the dark green orbs of his cousin, her thin arms crossed over her chest and giving him a chastising look.

“Anything I want you to be?" she asked, the toe of her foot tapping on the hard, concrete floor almost impatiently. "How about a maid, Deon? You’ve let my place go to shit.” she finished, looking up at the male with a dissatisfied expression before taking a quick look around the room which she had allowed him to live in when he moved in with her a year or so ago.

Deon's hanging, vertical position, forced the sweat from his legs to trickle down his flexed chest, onto his neck and down to the very top of his face where it continued to drip off of the point of his nose as he stared the female down. With an agitated sigh, he bent his torso up, practically folding his body in half as his fingers nimbly worked the metal restraints that had been clasped over his bare ankles, thus releasing the hold on him. With a practiced twist of his body - a sort of a back-flip - Deon fell to the floor deftly onto the balls of his feet, bending at the knees to soften the fall with much more agility and grace his cousin wanted to give him credit for. He slowly straightened his back up, vertebrae by vertebrae until he was standing at his full five feet, eleven inches and ran his hand through the small mess of sweaty hair he had left on the top of his head.

The sides of his head were shaved, leaving just a thick strip on the top of his head where a patch of hair grew. Sure he could have put it into a mohawk if he really wanted to, but that just wasn’t his style. He preferred the messy mop look. Less upkeep. Less responsibility. Hell, even if he wanted to try a different hairstyle, it was practically impossible for him to grow any hair on the left side of his head due to a thick scar reaching from the back of his head that wrapped around to the front, cutting into the top of his eyebrow. The scar itself was thick, raw-looking even - a clear indication that medical treatment should have been administered, but not heeded. That was Deon's choice, however. He didn't trust the hospitals in New Ancora. There was very little he did trust in this shit city anymore ever since the incident that gave him the scar in the first place.

Approaching his cousin with his chest heaving for breath as the sweat continued to drip down his body, he reached over her shoulder, keeping his eyes on her and pushed the play button on his virtual music player, The Ozzy Osbourne song picking right up where it had left off just moments ago before the female had so rudely turned it off. A bright red light emitted from the music player upon activation, displaying a 3D rendition of female dancer, supposedly nude, pole dancing to the beat of the music just above the player. His cousin glanced down, unable to keep her attention off the display of flashing red color and shook her head in disgust.

“Classy.”

“I told you not to interrupt me when I’m training, Katie.” Deon's voice said gruffly, a calloused tone in his natural voice sounding like he had been gargling rocks his whole life.

“Don’t be a twat Deon, I let you live here remember?” Kate sighed. She hated talking like that. Strong language was never her strong suit but she had lived with Deon long enough to know by now it was the only way to talk to him and hold his interest. Sometimes. “Look, I only came down here to remind you that I’m going to be gone this evening. I have a meeting I need to go to about project T-95.3." She explained, her arms unfolding so that she could start using them when she continued to talk, her agitated voice towards her cousin turning into excitement for the topic at hand. "I didn't actually program this one, we were invited by the Science Board as a classroom demonstration to sit in. See, there might have been some malfunction. So we might have to do a total recall-“

“Katie.” Deon interrupted her, rolling his golden eyes. “I don’t care.”

This had Kate clamping her mouth back shut, her arms hanging awkwardly in the air for a moment before she let them fall back down to her sides, her shoulders slouching just a bit - deflated.

“Just remember to not piss off A.D.A.M. again. I’m not about to leave this meeting just because you’ve been stuck with a neo-tranque dart again.”

Deon scoffed, picking up a dirty white rag from the floor and used it to wipe the sweat from his neck.

“You know, it might actually be cute if your little artificial security system was real. I mean, you gave it a name, for Gods sake! But the way you talk about it sometimes makes me wonder if you’re into that weird-ass cyber robot porn fetish shit.” Deon countered but then waved Kate off before she could remark back at him. “But yeah, yeah, you got it. No problems from me. Besides, I work tonight, won’t be home until your hitting your snooze button when you wake up in your bed... alone.”

“Yeah, "work.'” Kate scoffed, using her fingers in quotation, unable to help rolling her eyes as she turned to head back up the stairs that would take her back to the main part of her loft. With that asshole behind her, she closed herself into the bathroom and finished applying her makeup. Some nude lipstick, brown eye-liner and black mascara; that’s just about as classy as Kate got. Flattening out the wrinkles on her blue button-up shirt, she gave herself a once-over look in her full body mirror before deciding ‘good enough.’ Leaving the bathroom, she picked up her car keys and left the safety of her home to travel the dangerous roads full of morons that didn’t know how to drive.

Deon finished wiping down his neck and glanced up at the neon colored digital clock on the wall. The entire basement of Kate’s loft had been transformed into Deon’s living space. It was dark, musty, unfinished… reminded him of his own room back in the seventeenth district actually, so he didn’t mind. Actually, Kate had asked him a number of times when he would start 'dressing it up' and making it look more like a room with carpet and decent furniture. He wasn't sure if he even wanted to. What he did know is that he didn’t have time to start up another rep so he moved to his bathroom where he did a quick rinse down and dressed in new clothes of a beat-up looking grey wife-beater with a button-up jean-jacket with no sleeves over it and a pair of beige cargo pants.

Moving over to where his mattress lay in the middle of the floor, he scooped out his sunglasses from a pile of dirty clothes and headed up and out of the loft to the garage where he mounted his cycle. Pressing his thumb to the sensor bar, it whirred to life and Deon was off to ‘The Spit.’
Haha yeah, we had to make a few different IC threads to get the interest we were looking for XD Kind of confusing, but it all worked out in the end :) Ghost Shadow is also working on his second character, so that will be coming up soon.

<Name:/> Marsha L. Keane-Wilson
<Nickname(s):/> M.K, Marsh, the Tyro (the title reserved for the husband or wife of the current Librarian)

<Gender:/> cis-gendered female
<Age:/> 26

<Occupation:/> Flannery’s night shift manager/wife to the current leader of the Library (and believe her, it’s a job)
<District:/> 12

<Height:/> 5’5”
<Weight:/> 125

<Appearance:/>


<Personality:/> This is what D12 sees: She knows how to compliment you. It’s particular to you and you know because she stumbles a bit over her words when she says it. You like her smile. It comes with the compliments. She looks at you when you talk. Leans in when you slip up and admit some of your woes. Then, you keep talking and she nods her head, asks a question, and soon enough you got it all out and she knows. But then, she surprises you and shares something about herself you didn’t expect. You compliment her. Marsh smiles. You can see she doesn’t believe you. Now, you’re just confused.

This is what Marsh sees: She knows she’s intelligent. Knows it because references from books come up easily in her mind and that she draws connections faster than those around her. She knows she’s charismatic. Working as long as she has at Flannery’s and with the types of tips she pulls in, she has that touch of something else with her that helps pull in customers, and their money, into her pocket. Of course, it’s not that way with everyone. It’s not like one way is the only way. She enjoys getting to know a person so that she can learn what makes them smile or tell their secret.

But for as passionate as she is when she sings or how she likes a good argument, she’s got image issues. Oh, she eats food and enjoys her pleasures, but festering in her stomach are the insecurities of years in a bad marriage and her parent’s pressures. (“You’re chubby. Look at that roll in your stomach.” “Your voices cracked when you sang. How ugly.” “You’re awkward in bed.” “You should have tried better, done more.” “It’s not enough.” “Give more. More. Moremoremore.”) Weeks stack on top of each other where it boils there until it’s hard and it comes up and out. She shuts herself off. No books. Just a blanket and bed and one song played over and over again. Some spells are short. Some are long. Sometimes, at their worst, she’ll find the tallest building, go to the roof, and thinks about nothing and how nice nothing would be because she can’t numb herself to this world around her. No matter how much she tries.

She knows she’s an absolute romantic. She hates it. The dreams, the desires, the curling passion under her skin. But it’s that thought of maybe, just maybe, that has her stepping away from that edge before bringing her back again.

<Biography:/> Marsh was raised by two high ranking women within the Library, D12’s gang. Momma taught her how to sing Bobby Sands poetry and the Clash and Led Zeppelin. Mum read bedtime stories from Alexander Berkman’s autobiography or Benjamin Franklin’s satirical papers on British rule in the colonies. She knows her initials (MLK) were a half-joke from her parents and the other half is full expectations. She learned about Milk and Seneca Falls before she read about them.

She was never allowed to actually touch the books. She wasn’t fully initiated. By the second time she was scolded for handling a book, she knew she wanted to have the title Bookie. What she didn’t know was that everything, everything, was carefully put together so that she would meet Francis Wilson, the current Librarian.

They met at Flannery’s. Not much of a surprise. Marsh had been working in the kitchens since she was thirteen and then as a waitress after she turned seventeen. And that’s when he first flirted with her and slapped her ass. She was honored because he was the Librarian. So when he asked her to marry him two years later, she said. Yes, of course yes. The guy who had all the books and music at his finger tips. Who had the respect of dozens of Librarians behind him. Then, came the drugs. Then, came the rape. Then, came the stillborn. Then, came her Mum’s death and Momma’s confession that they always wanted M.K to marry Francis. We did this for you, they said. After all that talk of independence and revolution, too. The books, the songs, the poetry, it has a whole new meaning. Or maybe, it’s more like she realized the true meaning of Tim O’Brein’s book The Things They Carried.

Francis Wilson isn’t just a bad husband, though, he’s a bad Librarian. So it falls to the Tyro to maintain the reputation of the Library. She knows about the pole out in the community as to when she’ll off Francis, but she’ll bide her time until he’s killed. It’ll cause less strife within D12. With how often he travels into other districts, someone’s gonna be stupid enough to kill him. It won’t be one of the other gangs, though, no they don’t want someone like her in power of such an old gang. She honestly doesn’t care about them. They have free will that they are exerting and it’s not her responsibility to deal with them or keep them in line. New Ancora and the government, well, that’s something she wants to tear down.

<Other:/>
M.K thinks the splotchy birthmark on her back sexy and her most attractive feature.

She enjoys sex with men and women. She not sure who she prefers in a romantic relationship. She hasn’t had the chance to find out.

<Age:/> 25


<Occupation:/> Singer/Performer at Elevation

<District:/> District 5


<Height:/> 5'10''

<Weight:/> 126 lbs


<Appearance:/>



Cassia has long, blonde hair, blue eyes and pale skin. Her outfits range from extraordinary to extra extraordinary. Depending on the mood she hopes to spread in the club, she will wear a different outfit composed of a color scheme, with lights, tech, and other accompaniments that help to spread the emotion. In her daily life, she wears fashionable clothing in various colors.


<Personality:/> Cassia is a bit of a diva. She likes what she likes and that's all there is to it. She has her friends and she has her enemies and she makes it known who is in which category. She can be friendly when she wants to, but that's only when she wants to. She can be narcissistic at times. Though she can be vain, Cassia does appreciate where she is in her life and is thankful to the people that got her there. She enjoys entertaining and singing (it's the one thing in her life that is constant).

<Biography:/> Cassia was born to two parents. Notice I didn't say loving. Sure they pampered their daughter, gave her everything she asked for, made sure she was fed, dressed, did well in school, but they weren't exactly "hands on". Cassia grew up with other people taking care of her rather than her parents. She didn't mind if much until such things mattered, like hoping for a bedtime story or kissing a cut to make it better. It took acts of rebellion to get their attention finally, little things like shoplifting or cutting classes. Whatever got her parents to notice her.

However, her parents had a drastic change when they heard Cassia sing. At the age of 10, Cassia would sing along to whatever current hit was around. Her parents noticed her voice and quickly got on the line to get her into something.

Whisked away, Cassia was sent to (read: sold to) a high ranking music studio. There, they sharpened Cassia's talent and voice. Her parents were finally proud of her and showered her with love. Cassia was happy they were happy.

It wasn't until she was 16 that things took a sharp turn. Up until that point, Cassia put out songs, music discs, performed occasionally. She was an up-and-coming star, but her parents wanted more. More they screamed. Cassia couldn't take it anymore. She wanted something else.

No.

Her parents quickly turned venomous, verbally attacking their daughter, claiming she didn't appreciate all they gave her, how they made her into this star. Holding back tears, Cassia screamed at her parents, hitting on every detail of her life: how they were never there until it was beneficial for them, how they wanted a money maker, not a daughter.

It struck a nerve. Her parents decided if she was done, then fine. They were done.

She was no longer welcomed in their home.

In the midst of darkness; however, a light grew. A woman named Mileena, who worked for the studio and grew to like Cassia, offered her into her home. It wasn't as grand as she was accostomed to, but it was a roof over her head and food on her table. Cassia took the offer and spend many years with Mileena and her husband, eventually growing into a loving bond.

Cassia continued to sing, but it wasn't until she turned 21 that she got her big break. An offer was made, a contract at a popular club, Elevation. Cassia would be able to perform, would be set up in a nice home in District 5, and she would be in control of her work.

Cassia couldn't have gotten anything better.

But not everything is what it seems..

<Occupation:/>Hitman

<Height:/> 5' 11"
<Weight:/> 129 lbs.

<Appearance:/>


A lot of people can be described as predatory, but... it just rings true with Elizabeth. She's lean, well muscled, but feminine all the same. Almost like a panther. Always has a wary look in those teal eyes, and with her elegant jawline... it's hard not to see the hunter in her. But damn can she play a poor chap's heartstrings. Hard not to call her seducing, and those full lips... fool doesn't know what he's getting into. She knows how to use her looks to get what she wants. Doesn't matter if they are some narcissistic Alpha, he's still her play toy, tats and all. Even though she's got multiple. Yeah, there are the obvious ones, like the lines on her right cheek and the triangle one on her chin, but those aren't her favorites. No, she likes the one on her back, a tribal scorpion. Thing is huge, its tail starting at the top of her hip on the right side and running into the body set dead in her back, the pincers at her shoulders. It's... unsettling, to say the least.

<Personality:/> Cynical, sarcastic, devious... Elizabeth is a real... joy... to deal with. She never sincerely smiles, most of the time faking it to put you off, and she always has that neck tilt, like she's... trying to size you up. You can see it in her eyes, like you're prey. She's sadistic too, though whether it's a result of her work or vice versa is hard to say, and you can tell she isn't much for liking people. Thinks everyone's out to get her. She mostly sits back and lets the world screw itself up around her. Only became a hitman for the money. Doesn't care a lick about the politics behind it or the morality. As long as it pays good.

<Biography:/> Twenty-four years ago, a young drug addict by the name of Jonathan Breeyon had the misfortune of meeting an unknown woman on the streets. Tall, slender, elegant, and about his age, she was a magnet for the kid on high, and within a few short hours, she was leaving his hovel as content as any lion after its meal. But, unlike every other successful hunt, this one had after effects, and in a short time, the seducer realized she'd made an error. And she needed to get rid of it. Fast.

Surgery was too expensive. None of the clinics would take her. So in nine months time, her little daughter was born. And she couldn't bring herself to kill it. Instead, she took it to the father, and with a little reward, stuck the baby with her addict dad. That's how she got the name, Breeyon. And Jonathan decides to keep the name of the mother. Elizabeth.

The lessons of a parent on narcotics are of a strange variety, and as the young girl aged through her toddler and early preteen years, she found that the world was a place of advantage and sin. It wasn't that her father ever beat on her. Despite the influence of drugs, he cherished the little girl, and gave her all the love he could afford. But as she watched Jonathan poison himself day by day, wasting his money on pleasure over food, it had an impact.

When her old man died at the ripe old age of thirty-three, sixteen year old Elizabeth didn't have many choices for how she was going to make it in the world alone. It was either join a gang, become a prostitute, or work a low paying job to go nowhere. Unless, you had the willpower or connections to contracts.

Elizabeth was not going to become her mother. Three days after Jonathan's death, the little vixen had contacted a hitman with what she described as simply a job. Had he known that job was to take on an apprentice, he would've hung up the phone. Instead, he arrived and was impressed my the girl's treachery, and took her in.

The next two years saw the young girl turned into a lethal woman, her enthrallment with her occupation enough that she picked up skills quickly. First came her talents in manipulation. Learning to heighten or lower her voice, control her language, accent, gaint, demeanor... talents that actors wished for. Next was her own physical prowess, a skill she tailored to her own form, making her agile, fast, and skilled at hand to hand combat. Then the teacher was done, and Elizabeth was on her own. But there was one final lesson she learned, a skill that was both ironic and unique, making her a go to for inconspicuous kills. To create and synthesize various narcotics, then apply them in a multitude of ways. A talent which made her truly deadly.

<Other:/>
The drugs employed by Elizabeth are many, each serving their purpose in various ways.

Scopolamine: Also known as Devil's Breath, this little beauty is made from a tree that grows abundantly in Colombia, where the local criminal element made it infamous with their constant use of the substance. Odorless, colorless, and tastless, it takes a minor amount inhaled, consumed, injected, or exposed to breaks in the skin for the most basic effects to begin. And it only takes a few minutes from first exposure, before the victim enters what is best described as a zombie-like state; coherent but with no free will. And it gets worse. Not only is the subject easy to command, with Colombian cases expanding from victims helping robbers steal their valuables to even donating organs, but afterwards there is no recollection of the events, the drug stopping memories from forming for nearly 24 hours. Those under the influence of Devil's Breath also experience powerful hallucinations, with increased dosages resulting in a state of unconciousness and, in high amounts, death due to respiratory failure.

In the hands of a skilled hitman, Devil's Breath earns its dubbing by some as the scariest drug out there. It can be blown into someone's face, slipped in their drink, injected into their skin, or dispersed in the very air they breath. But what makes it most powerful is the massive quantity of applications. Interrogations, robberies, framings, attacks, coverups... all made ten times easier thanks to a little tree.

Hand of the Devil: Often sold on the streets and in dark corners for aspiring athletes and underhanded brawlers, the drug is likely one of the most dangerous on the market, for both consumers and anything around them. The steroid, requiring direct injection into the body, stimulates the body to levels beyond what man should achieve, but seems to induce a level of rage and unreasoning that makes it earn the name. That is, if you make it past the first few minutes. This is a drug that only the best of the best can even think to use, with top physical conditioning required. Otherwise, you face cardiac arrest, a fate 90% of users meet head on.

Again, Elizabeth enjoys her interactions with the Devil's toys, with this one usually saved for the weak bodied or those requiring high profile deaths. It is truly a hitman's best friend. Inject it quietly and in the victim's sleep, and they die by a drug that will make investigators right them off as just another casualty of ambition. But the best are when they are awake and healthy, with wild chases testing her own skills as she leads them straight into the law and a complete massacre.

Hydrogen Cyanide: Probably the most lethal poison in the world, hydrogen cyanide is a liquid that boils at just above room temperature, making both liquid and gaseous use a possibility when applied in the field. Targeting the ETC in the cells' mitochondria, it completely shuts down ATP production, affecting the nervous system and heart most as they are forced to shut down. The speed that this takes varies. As a gas, about three hundred milligrams per cubic meter is all it takes to kill anyone exposed to the space in ten to sixty minutes. And at three thousand five hundred of the same unit of measurement, it takes less than a minute. In it's liquid form, its even more dangerous, taking small amounts of space to deliver a punch powerful enough to end the largest of animals. A syringe of this colorless, water-filled substance, and it's the end.

Even despite its lack of distributors, forcing Elizabeth to construct her own lab, the hitman has found Hydrogen Cyanide to be worth the effort. In a drink, the poison goes straight to the stomach, boiling on its way until every milligram is distributed across the body in a blanket if death. With a syringe, it's even faster. But what makes it amazing for someone like Elizabeth is the prospect of slipping it into a building's filtration system, ending hundreds of lives within hours.

2,4-Dinitrophenol: Simply referred to as DNP, the drug can actually be found over the counter in pills made for weight loss, often attracting body builders or big people wanting slim bodies. The problem is, most that by it don't quite realize what they are getting into, either loving the results or dying before they get them. The reason why is actually pretty scary. The reaction of the drug with the body results in the mitochondria reducing energy production efficiency, instead turning all that chemical work it's done into waste heat. The result is a massive increase in body temperature, and eventual death by hyperthermia. Unless, of course, you have a ton of fat to burn. Literally.

What Elizabeth loves most about DNP is the fact that all it takes is a hammer and bag to alter it to a nice, yellow powder, which can be slipped into food or drink and given to an unsuspecting target. Once ingested, it's almost cruel, the effects literally cooking the victim from the inside until they die from the excess heat.

<Gender:/>
Male
<Age:/>
34

<Occupation:/>
Does homeless man count? Markus is still trying to work out just how the city works, or at the very least is playing stupid. Either way, he just does odd jobs to help himself get by.

<District:/> 17

<Height:/> 6'1
<Weight:/> 93kg

<Personality:/>
Markus is very... curious. As a man who claims to have come from beyond the walls, he likes to tell grand tales of adventure, and is generally fun to be around. He likes seeing others smile, laugh, become intrigued, or other such emotions, and is quite the supportive individual, very much like a caring big brother. He's a man who believes in freedom, which has lead to some altercations with the local police force, namely within the first few weeks of arriving at New Ancora. However, he managed to get away on a clean slate, considering he was apparently unaware of the concept of 'stealing', or just crime in general for that matter.

He's simply fascinated with the technologies of New Ancora, and acts much like an enthusiastic child when he encounters something new. Oftentimes, he'll create equally simple and childish nicknames for the device, rather than using the proper name. Despite this, the man is actually quite wise, or so he tries to be, since he's the only person from the outside to make it in, as far as he knows. His very being radiates experience and wonder, very much like an old man or woman whom has lived a fulfilling life, and his eyes gleam with this certain sense of brightness and life that could only be found in those who are pure of heart.

The question is, can he remain pure in New Ancora?

<Biography:/>

Not an awful lot of history to Markus. At least, not a lot of verified history. He sort of just... showed up one day, without a trace. He claims to have come from "The Outside". Nobody really knows for sure if he's actually from the outside, but he claims to be, and tells many vivid stories about it.

He made his first appearance by fixing a whole bunch of random 'garbage' in the outer districts of New Ancora, essentially turning scrap metal into useful tools and goods that he gave away to a bunch of random people. After this, the man mysteriously disappeared for about a month; even the shady alleyway guys couldn't find him. His second appearance was at a medical clinic for the homeless, where he proceeded to patch up a bunch of patients with methods and tools from the 21st century, and even performing an amputation for a cybernetic (which was very difficult to pull off due to his sheer fascination with the arm and tools provided). Yet once again, he disappeared into thin air, only to come back a third time a week later being caught stealing from a bunch of shopkeepers, though gave them back the stolen goods when he learned this was 'wrong'.

After this third appearance, Markus began appearing more and more, until eventually, he found himself living in the outer districts of New Ancora. Among the less fortunate citizens, he was known as the kind man who would do anything for free, at the least asking for a nice place to sleep or a simple meal to keep him going. Anyone he met would be greeted with a smile and a kind soul - everyone was given a chance to prove themselves as kind, and Markus was more than willing to give people a second chance. He had a few bad run-ins with the law even after he was established, being mistaken for a prankster or criminal playing dumb, yet even the most intense interrogators could only find sincerity in his words as he spoke of coming from the outside.

And that worried some people.

But Markus didn't really care, nor did he have time to care. He'd already gone when the police department was asked to question him about his method of entering New Ancora. But this time, it wasn't to disappear, or to help the people of the district. No, this was a personal goal of his that he had only just recently found. He'd already learned that New Ancorda had a variety of districts, and he knew that he was already in District 17. His goal was to make it further within the Districts, step by step, level by level, until finally he could maybe, possibly, hopefully reach the ultimate destination: District 0. He was drawn to that place somehow. Every time he heard about it, his curiosity would skyrocket. He just had to know what lay within.

And so, Markus begins his journey, headed from the 17th District to the 16th, hoping to help anyone he can along the way.

<Other:/> Markus's Theme; Oddly, Markus is very skilled in tinkering with modern day technologies, despite most of his knowledge relating to the 21st century. Additionally, he is fairly skilled when it comes to medical practices from the 21st century, and wishes to learn more about medicines and whatnot of 2118.
Thank you all for your interest, however (since this had multiple recruitment pages) all spots have been filled. If your character did not get accepted, it is merely because other people's characters fit the lore of New Ancora a bit better than yours. Do not take this personally, as no sheet that was submitted was bad, per say, but this is a roleplay Ghost Shadow, Mach2 and I have been working on for nearly 3 years and know what kind of characters it takes to keep it fun and interesting while being true to the lore.

Now, for those of you who have been accepted, you may find the OOC here.

Again, thank you all for your interest.

This thread is now CLOSED
For those of you accepted, you may find the OOC here. Thank you all for your interest! And @Wade Wilson, once you complete your backstory, send me a nudge here or something so I can take a look at it.
