Wynter - Character example

BASIC INFO:
Legal Name: Wynter
Codename/Nickname/Aliases: Wynnie
Age: Twenty-Six
Occupation: Information Specialist - Bartender @ Neverland Nightclub


ADDITIONAL INFO:
Residence, neighborhood/type of home: Smokey Slums - even though she could probably afford some place better.
Place of Birth: Organa City
Ethnicity: Black-American
Citizenship and other legal info: (self-evident)


OTHER INFORMATION:
Likes/Dislikes: Corproate Companies - Organa's goons - Men with sticky hands - Unnecessary violence
Small animals - Food - Music - Her girls - Fighting for whats right
Ons/Offs: Wynter likes the rough and tough girls. She likes longs kisses, heavy petting, and is one hell of a tease.


PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 125 lbs/Athletic
Hair color: Black - but she is known for wearing wigs.
Eye color: Dark Brown
General Appearance: Wynter is a pretty girl, but society standards. She's often considered "a waste of beauty" who shouldn't live in the slums. Even at average height, she manages to have a sort of presence that commands attention. With dark brown eyes the shape of perfect almonds, cocoa colored skin and full lips - she is definitely not the sort you would expect to come out of poor conditions. Wynter isn't frail, but she's a very slender and athletic sort of woman.
Faceclaim: Nyasha Matonhodze

EQUIPMENT/OTHER:

EQUIPMENT:
Sable - Sable is her little hand gun or pistol. It doesn't shoot your common bullets, but uses plasma bullets that hurt like hell. It was a gift from some man she met at Neverland Club.

HISTORY: Wynter grew up in Organa City with a single mother and two older brothers. Her life wasn't always spent in the slums, in fact, it was quite pleasant before Yannis started to change the direction in which he wanted to control the common people. Her mother was a school teacher, which helped foster her love for reading, writing, and learning. Without that, Wynter is almost certain she would end up drugged or a private dancer at one of the many clubs in Organa city. At a young age, she was able to read beyond was expected - making her somewhat of a prodigy. This was a feat that many people in her position couldn't master.

When Yannis began to build factories in mass production, many hoped it would produce more jobs. It did the exact opposite. Yannis thought it would be better to create robots and employee A.I. that didn't need the time off and extended breaks to reset. It was cheap labor and thus jobs began disappearing for the common people. Many businesses started to follow in the same footsteps as him. In schools, it was relatively the same thing. A.I.'s were being programmed and created to teach just about any subject, rendering classically trained teachers useless.

Her mother was put out of a job. With her mom out of a job when Wynter was just sixteen, the young girl vowed to never have her mother or anyone else go through the hardships they were put in. And much to her surprise, Wynter surpassed all educational expectations.

Around the same time her mother lost her job, Wynter was granted a full scholarship into Organa University, where she focused her studies on Marketing & Public Speaking. Her mother thought it a waste, hoping she would go into the medical field to gain more money and live a better life outside of Organa City when things went bad. After graduating with a Masters at twenty, she dedicated most of her time to non-profit charity and helping the residents in Smokey Slums.

It was Wynter that helped build and market the school for the youth of the city. It employed her mother and several others - but it was just the beginning to creating a different world for them all. At twenty-three she was recruited in the biker gang - The Athenians. At first, it wasn't really her thing, but with their common goals, ideals, interests, and love of motorcycles - she knew it was the only way to go.

Now, Wynter spends most of her time as a bartender in the heart of Organa City. There she can get all the information she could remember. With good looks and eloquent way of speaking, many often don't realize that they're spilling sensitive information. When Wynter is not at Neverland Club working as bartender, she helps out at the school or tending to the bar the Athenian's helped build.

Like everyone else, Wynter is determined to get things right - even if it means sacrificing herself.

PERSONALITY: To put it bluntly - Wynter is a flirt, its why she's a information specialist for the gang. One could call it manipulative, Wynter considers it a different form of hustling. She isn't the type to use people unless she thinks it'll benefit those in Smokey Slums or her gang. To couple it with her being so infectiously flirty, she's incredibly intelligent as well. Being one of the few that made, not only through highs school, but granted a scholarship to Organa University - she used what she learned to give many of the girls and people in Smokey Slums the tools they need to survive and make a better life for themselves. At first, Wynter may seem a bit blunt or stuck up, but she means well.

Deep down Wynter is a sucker for romance and calls herself an empath. She doesn't try to get too close with anyone, but keeps everyone close to her heart. Kind, caring, and protective are other words to describe the young woman who is still discovering who she is as a person.

CHARACTER FLAWS: Headstrong & Stubborn || For many, this is considered a good thing. For Wynter? It could get her in a lot of trouble. When a situation arises, she tries her best not to go the violent route. She is known for getting upset too quickly - but its not really an anger problem. If someone tells her to calm down, she probably won't.

EXTENDED NOTES: waiting for connections!

GM Notes/Annoucement(s)

Since I'm seeing quite a bit of interest right before recruitment closes, I've been thinking about setting up a second game. I need to make it quite clear to those that do not realize this - but the game is NOT first come first serve. It's a process that I'm trying to get writers that I think can really make the story come to life and are committed enough to keep it going. This is in no way me playing favorites or trying to be mean. I've gone over in my head a million times if I shouldn't do it this way, but the last time I just let everyone in - it became a big game I couldn't handle and people dropped before the first I.C. was up.

So, this is something for me to get used to GMing and for me to lead a story that I'm very passionate about. So, because of this - I would like to offer the idea of having another group game of the same story with 8 different players. So, if you're interested in that as well, please vote.

The Rules

I. This is an all female roleplay - only. All NPCs that are male or female will be controlled by me. In the off chance this game becomes popular enough for a bigger writing base, I will gladly take male characters. For now, it’s female only. This means that trans-women and non-binary characters are definitely allowed.

II. No Drama. Please - absolutely NONE!

III.Use the OOC to plan, chat, and get to know one another!

IV.Characters: All characters are based on application/character concept pitched me either in the recruitment thread or via PM. It is a process I’ve decided to do after figuring out which would work out best.

V.Face Claims: No anime/hentai or cartoonish pictures. Realistic art & real photography only.

VI.Posting rate: This game is not a fast paced game, by any means. I want to be as flexible as possible with every writer’s IRL responsibilities in mind.

VII.If you have to leave, have an extended disappearance or anything else - please communicate with me and the writer’s you’re doing a scene with.

VIII.Do not take over other characters and do not do the same with my NPCs without permission. The only NPC I more than like not make available for everyone writer to use will be Yanis Organa.

IX. I am the current GM, if you have any questions regarding your character or the story itself, please PM me or post it in the OOC or Recruitment thread.

X. Please follow all of Elliquiy's Rules & Guidelines

XI. All Character sheets must be PMed to me for approval. Remember, this is not a first come first served. I'm looking for great character concepts to make an awesome game!

The Story & Premise

Premise || This story takes place in a metropolis dystopian future. Somewhere along the lines of Tokyo/New York City. The world is - well, corrupted - in a way. The government wasn't appointed, it was filled by wealthy elites who only cared about themselves and those with the same agenda. With jobs moving to machines, less jobs are being generated - causing harm for small businesses and the common people. In urban cities, there have been an influx of crime and joblessness that seems to be never ending. The police, controlled by the central government, only made matters worse. They would jail innocent people/bystanders. They would terrorize and cause harm. The only way to correct the crime and keep out the corrupted government grunts are by the gangs created by those who feel the only way to bring any sort of hope - is to take matters into their own hands. These gangs control a portion/section of the great city. They keep out unwanted guests and try their best to take care of their people. Since the government has all but abandoned the common people. One group in particular has different plans, plans that could change the future for the better.

Story || A war broke out in year 2178, causing mass destruction in large areas of the earth. The United States was all but destroyed - New York City(now known as Organa City) was one of last major cities that was able to stand on its own two feet. It was the wealthy few that kept the city protected that took the government into their own hands. They let in refugees and therefore - they could do whatever they wanted. Making it a good excuse for them to have something to hold of the heads of the common people. Despite the world declining in the necessary things it needed to survive - technology was better than ever.

The metropolitan center had it all - Flying cars, A.I./V.I., and advancements in medical and scientific discovery was at an all time high. From a physical point of view, it looked good. On paper, it seemed too good to be true. And it was, for in the underbelly of Organa City lied the slums, an area that the government actively ignored. It was a stark contrast to the prospering city that had everything. Yanis Organa, the leader or dictator to some, was the face of this new city. Under his rule, the common people lost their jobs - while building more and more machines to do the labor meant to keep people out of poverty. The war refugees that came in from the destruction were told that Yanis was the reason they had anywhere to live.

For many, the slums were a way of life. Crime, peddling, and hustling were things people lived by. Very few had jobs and the government would only send a small amount of money to those in need. That little bit was barely enough for the basic essentials. Out the poor conditions rose a group of women who all had a few things in common - motorcycles and the need to protect their home and people. They were the very few that either built their rig from the ground up or had enough money to buy one. Their common goal, once together - was to form a group that would protect the people in the slums.

As their help created small jobs and protection to those that needed it - Yanis started to release “Police” or grunts to patrol poor areas. The people were terrorized, killed without a cause, and taken their will for protecting what was theirs. The Athenian’s, as they called themselves, decided it was time to take it into their own hands. To overthrow the government and make it for the people - by the people.

Introduction ♦ Rules ♦ Story ♦ F.A.Q.

[la dame en noir]

F.A.Q

I. Are male characters allowed?

• At this time? No. Since the small game focuses currently on eight individual women, the game will not feature and male characters. The only male characters at this time are NPCs controlled by me. If the game calls for a bigger group, then I will start to accept male characters.

II. Can I write a trans-female or non-binary character?

• Absolutely! Transwomen are still women and are welcome to be apart of a badass group of girls fighting for whats right. As for non-binary characters, there is a gray area. Not all non-binary individuals are female bodied. However, if your character just doesn't character about gender norms or pronouns, then they are welcome. I just ask that they are female bodied to keep it fair.

IV. What is transportation like?

• The game, while set in a dystopian future, will still have vehicles that run on gas to operate. That being said, if you see your character riding a motorcycle that is not longer manufactured(because technology has surprised ground transportation) then go ahead! But since this game will have quite a few sci-fi elements to it, I would love it if we tried to keep as many of the motorcycle aspects are futuristic as possible. Keep in mind again that a lot of these women shouldn't be well off.

V. Will there be a use for weapons?

• Short answer - Yes. What sort of weapons is up to you and my discretion. Nothing crazy - like later canons and shit will be allowed.

There is an official character sheet in the worldbuilding thread, FYI. Though perhaps adding it as its own separate link would be a good idea?

I updated the first post with a link to the character template.

BASIC INFO:
Legal Name: Emma-Lynn Taylor

Occupation: -


ADDITIONAL INFO:
Residence, neighborhood/type of home: Organa City, small ground floor apartment with garage, inherited from her parents.

OTHER INFORMATION:

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:
Height: 177cm (5'8)
Weight: 51kg (113 lbs)
Hair color: Blonde
Eye color: Blue
General Appearance: Emma is tall, skinny and hasn't got much in the area of breasts or ass. Her distinquished features are her eyes and brows.
Faceclaim: Cara Delevingne

EQUIPMENT/OTHER:

EQUIPMENT:
Sniper rifle + sight Being on overwatch often, Emma has acquired a long range sniper rifle to give some back up to her friends on the ground if needed.
Handgun In case she gets in trouble and needs to shoot somebody close range.

HISTORY: Emma was born from a line of British immigrants. Her parents were both rather physical and abusive towards little Emma and more often than not she found her parents drunk or missing when she came home from school. One day, she was taking a shower when her dad, drunk as hell, broke into the bathroom and had his way with her. Emma ran away but after a few hours realised that she had nowhere to go so she went back and endured the abuse for months and years. When everything went wrong, her parents soon were arrested for no other reason than being drunk and in a bizarre leap of faith it turned out that her grandparents who had bought the small house decades ago had signed a contract saying the house were to go to Emma when she would come of age. Being nineteen already, Emma was assigned the house.

With the world and the city rapidly changing and Emma now being alone, she tried to find work to pay for her needs but just like everybody else in the lower levels, it was very hard. More often than not did she got the offer to sell her body for sex as even the elite needed that and with her looks, she was told she could make a fortune. Emma rejected all the offers and eventually found a job for a few nights a week in a local pub. It wasn't much but it paid for her needs.

One of those needs, along with food and other groceries was her cherished motorcycle. It wasn't a modern hoover machine that could levitate and sort of fly but it wasn't one of those ancient relics that relied on gas. Her motorcycle ran on electricity and was therefor completely quiet, a trait that came in handy in the next years of her life.

Without having the money to live a luxury life, Emma made a choice. The way she saw it she would die anyway. Governments had stopped to excist and anarchy now ruled the lower parts of the city. At first her area of the city was long controlled by the governments and later on by Organa but as the years went by, her area sunk and sunk until eventually it was officially qualified as being part of the slums. With anarchy and corruption running rampant, Emma knew that doing nothing would make her weak and she knew what happened to weak women. She had seen two police officers enter the house of her neighbour the other day. The screams of the woman as the men violated her was something that brought Emma back to her father immediately and she told herself she would rather die than let that happen to her as well.

In the middle of the night, way passed the curfew, she managed to get into the better areas of the city. The thrill alone was enough for Emma at first but later on, as she grew more and more confident of her stealth she began stealing. Not big heists but little things that would make her life a little better. Bread, wine, guns, chocolate, stuff like that.

One day she met one of the girls in a bar and when she confirmed the red and white bike was hers and after a thorough screening process, Emma was recruited into the Athenians.

PERSONALITY: Having been alone for quite a while, Emma is very reserved to people she doesn't know or trust, yet if a stranger would be in need of help, she would help them without question. When she is comfortable around the people she knows, she can be a friendly face, a goofball or just a shoulder to cry on. 

CHARACTER FLAWS: Isn't always the best teamplayer, lacks real physical strength

EXTENDED NOTES: -

[Dashenka]

Hope she will do dame :)


I wasn't sure if with the Ons/Offs you meant the sexual ones or just in general.


Also the equipment area isn't clear to me... What and how do we fill in there?

[la dame en noir]

Ons/offs is for sexual content. Replace 'piece of equipment's with the sort of weapon she might have and how it works. I'll have my profile up tonight as an example.

I'm going to make a few minor corrections to the profile template for the sake of making sure everyone can get it done smoothly.

[Dashenka]

Ok thanks! That cleared it up for me. I'll edit her :)

[la dame en noir]

No problem. Please be sure to pm it to me since the game is not first come, first serve.

[Dashenka]

Oh sorry I thought we should post here... I'll edit it in the morning and send it to you in PM :)

[la dame en noir]

GM Announcement

First post is updated again with an example of how your character sheet could look. It doesn't need to be lengthy - so don't worry about that. Once everyone has sent their profiles to me via PM and have been selected - I will make the character thread - OOC - IC threads(at a little later with this one). Then we can all establish connections.

For reference: My character will be the information specialist. She's a bit headstrong and stubborn - but she means well. Wynter is intelligent, well educated, and a shameless flirt.

So that's my little blurb for now! I can't wait to see everyone's profiles.
