Lockdown - High School/Horror (Recruitment CLOSED!)

[The Jackal]

I think I'll throw my hat into the ring.



My name is The Jackal and I'm playing HARDCORE!



Name: Bruce Rowland

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
D/S: Virgin

Appearance:

He's 5'10" and prefers to wear comfortable clothes like t-shirts, jeans, and the occasional zip up hoodie.

Clique: Gamers (Geeks)

Favorite Subjects: Algebra (Math), PE, Art

Personality: To others Bruce comes off spacey and a bit fidgety, but when he has a clear objective his mind is sharp as a tack.  Bruce gets really good grades in the classes that keep his attention, but barely passing grades in the others...rumors around school says he's taking online classes from the community college.

Fears: Public Speaking, Spiders, Heights

Other/Background:  Bruce's parents got married right out of high school, and his birth came soon after.   After months of verbal abuse his mother had the sense to file for divorce before things got ugly.  From then on it was Bruce and his mother against the world, unfortunately they never settled down anywhere for more than a few years.  When Bruce transferred to this school his mother promised him that they wouldn't be moving anytime soon.  Bruce works at a restaurant most weekends to pay for his many interests, but still makes time for his friends; whether its hitting a late night movie, or just a good old fashioned card game.  Now that graduation is within sight Bruce finds himself seeming a little more laid back, but the bullies always pull him back to reality...its not over yet.

Name: Miranda Williams

Age: 18

Gender: ♀

Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
D/S: Switch

Appearance:


Clique: Popular group (Lead cheerleader)

Favorite Subjects: History (Pillow-lessons) P.E. (Allowed-To-Eat-More-Ice-cream-lessons) and social studies (All-Answers-are-correct-lessons)

Personality: Miranda would compare herself to a chess player. She sits there moving the pieces, instead of being a piece herself. She prefers to sit back and let others do her dirty work, and uses quick wit and her social antennas to get more and more pieces on her side of the board. She's self confident, intelligent, (Not Einstein 2.0, but not in any sense dumb) and love to use it for her own personal advantage.

On the outside however, she appears as a pretty kind and innocent girl hiding behind her strong boyfriend for protection, while in reality, she simply moves him where she wants him to be.

Fears: Being exposed, spiders, most elements from horror movies to some degree.

Other/Background: Her parents had a divorce when she was three and her mother got the parental rights. They remained alone for about four years before her mother remarried again with a rich man who also had a divorce a while ago and had a single son. (I don't want to reveal in more detail or further just yet, I'd rather let go of it during the RP)







Name: Samuel (Sam) Reese

Age: 18

Gender: ♂

Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
D/S: Primarily sub with both genders, but could go a bit more dom with a female than male, where he'd never go dom. Has little experience with females and no experience with men.

Appearance:

As a demonstration against the trend of big muscular guys.

Clique: Inbetweener

Favorite Subjects: English, art and social studies

Personality: Sam is a lot more silent and withdrawn than his step-sister. he could probably easily have played on his sister's social status, but he simply left it be, not wanting "fake" friends or whatever one might call it. He normally strays away from people between classes and would normally be found somewhere reading or playing with his phone. Those that know him does know he's a good guy and all, and if not boyfriend material, he's most certainly a good and reliant friend.

Besides his social issues, he is very reliant and had by the age of 16 both paid for his drivers license, and with a little bit of support from his father, bought a rather new car, which quickly turned into the victim of his stepsister's party habits. It would probably be the only time he'd yell at her, but they do normally get along rather well, at least at home. Since they stray away from one another in public, no-one really know of how their relationship is and quickly assume that the split of social status has made them dislike one another, which of course isn't the truth, but neither bother to object.

Fears: Has a little social anxiousness, death, and falling victim to bullying.

Other/Background: Much like his stepsister, his parents had a divorce and him and his father lived alone for quite the while before he remarried. (Just like above, I'd rather wait it out till the RP starts and reveal more and more underway. If the GMs want more though, feel free to ask, and I'll finish it up)

Name: Jouichirou "Joey" Yamamoto

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Sexual Orientation: Gay; Closeted, but the rumor is out there.
D/S: Virgin, but submissive in everything else in life.

Appearance:


Clique: Geeks/Nerds/Other Overachieving Asians.

Favorite Subjects: AP Calculus, World History, and AP Chemistry.

Personality: Joey learned early in school that his peers were not nearly as impressed by his academic achievements as his parents and teachers might be. He had little else to offer his peers, and his need to fit in usually ended in him bending to whatever whim his fellow students had. This was usually him doing their homework, covering for them when they broke rules, or being the target of teasing and bullying. The attention is bitter-sweet, and even though Joey almost asked for it, he has started growing unappreciative of the attention. Telling the other students to stop, or fighting back, has never dawned on him, so instead, he just tries to fade into the background and go without being noticed. When he does get somebody's attentions, he'll grin and bear it, playing along with whatever they're asking of him, even if it means demeaning himself.

Fears: Not living up to people's expectations.

Other/Background: Born to Japanese immigrants that put their child's success in front of his happiness. 'Joey' isn't his official name, but an 'Americanized' version of his name he's taken from a very young age. Only joins extracurricular activities that have merit on a college application: AV Club, Young Scientists, Honor Society, Robotics Club. This, combined with his excellent rapport with teachers, gives him access to many places in the school that might be off limits to other students.

Going to withdraw my interest. Best of luck to you all :)

Same here... Sadly

[kingmaster1]

Aww, I'm sorry to hear that, you guys :-/

[mj2002]

I just wanted to get something cleared up. In my understanding, having a 'hardcore' character means the character is killable. What it doesn't mean is that it is an invitation for other characters (or the GMs even) to go ahead and kill that character whenever the opportunity arises. I am under the impression that this character ending up dead is not impossible, the player is not against this, but there has to be a reasonable pretext that would lead up to this. A character could act foolishly, walk into a trap, take more risks than is healthy, engage in violence (with violence being returned) or simply exposing themselves to grave physical harm.

I just want to make sure that this doesn't mean this;

Question, and not trying to be a dick but... is Uber Hardcore the 'Oh god please kill this person NOW' category? :D

I immediately downgraded my character to hardcore after I read this reply, and the confirmation by one of the GMs.

Hmm... that would seem to be true XD

I was personally under the impression that uber hardcore simply meant that you would have one character, and if they were to die, that's it. I like that idea, but I don't like to have a character that's in the  'Oh god please kill this person NOW' category.

Can a GM clarify this?

[azzmeister89]

Hmm i wouldn't worry to much about that mj, i highly doubt anyone is going to attempt to start killing other characters off unless all players involved are ok with it. I think the kill me now list was just a joke

[Xenolord]

Yea, sorry about that. I meant it as a joke, and it didn't come off well. Sorry.

[mj2002]

Yea, sorry about that. I meant it as a joke, and it didn't come off well. Sorry.

Don't worry. I don't mind jokes at all. I was just hoping to get the situation clarified so that everyone understands that is it a joke, if that's the case.

[kingmaster1]

Don't worry. I don't mind jokes at all. I was just hoping to get the situation clarified so that everyone understands that is it a joke, if that's the case.

Yes, mj, it was a joke :-P

We might have to postpond the deadline for the character submission. In light of recent dropouts, we need more applicants, perhaps a jock or two, and some nerd boys/girls.

I could rework mine into a nerdy girl, if we have too many of the other arch-types.
