Broken Bonds [Alternate Universe Dystopia | LGBTQ+ Friendly | Recruiting]

[Cerevan]

Welcome to New Orleans, darling.

You may know this as the place where the bayous come to rest in the cradle of sin & redemption. Where ghosts whisper from darkened alleys and church steeples. Where children play on trees that once held the corpses of hanged men. Where the musicians play jazz on street corners. Where the levees broke.

And oh, oh my stars, so many things broke along with those levees.

We’d gotten along alright until then. Or no, I suppose that’s a lie, isn’t it? Ever since the war, you know, nothing’s been quite right. I still remember when there was a Guide to every Sentinel. Balanced, it was, balanced in the way that God intended. Only then there was the war, and those bombs, and now… It’s a shame, a damned shame, how quickly we’ve forgotten the old ways.

Now I’m not saying the Tower doesn’t do what it can. Taking Guides from their families and all that politicking, well, I can’t very well approve of that, now can I? But they’re certainly better than those good for nothing Chainbreakers. Leastways for keeping the peace. Did you hear, they finally caught the man who started that all? Scared me half to death, that lot of troublemakers did, what with their bombings and protests and those riots…oh, but I forgot, you’re new in town.

Don’t fret, darling. You’ve better things to do than listen to the nattering of an old woman. Just keep your nose clean, I should say, and everything will work out just fine. Pay no mind to the ghosts or the children or the musicians. And if you’ve half a mind, keep clear of the levees, you know what they say about things that have already been broken.

Basic Information

Broken Bonds is a reboot of an earlier game (also known as Broken Bonds) created by Faustus. The original game was, in turn, inspired vaguely by the 90s television show The Sentinel and by the fanfiction Chameleon by VelvetMace. Don’t know any of those references? No problem!

The basics are this: our story takes place in an alternate version of Earth. In this alternate universe, humanity has evolved into three distinct “presentations” called Sentinel, Guide, and Normal. Sentinel possess heightened senses and what is gently referred to as “strong animal instincts”. Guides harness a shadowy form of emotional telepathy & manipulation known as Empathy. And Normals, who make up the bulk of the population, have no extra powers but also don’t suffer from the same power-caused-issues.

During the two World Wars, use of a chemical known as GSX9 led to the severe decline in the Guide population. This was…not good, to put it lightly. Sentinel need Guides to survive. It’s Guides who keep Sentinel from going mad either from their overstimulated senses or from their more bestial instincts. Enter the Tower, equal parts government and military, which works to keep Sentinel on an even keel and to match them with Guides from the depleted population.

Unfortunately, Guides aren’t particularly keen on being brought in as bargaining chips. Not to mention the fact that there’s plenty of resistance to be found in organizations such as the Chainbreakers and the TKO. There’s a storm brewing in New Orleans, and there’s no telling yet which way the wind will blow…

Notes & Links

o This game, due to possible content, will be located in the Non-Consensual-Human (NC-H) portion of the forum. It is a freeform sandbox-ish-styled game with overarching GM plots that players are, depending upon the plot in question, either encouraged or required to participate in.

o This game, as mentioned above, owes a heavy debt of gratitude to the original Broken Bonds team. It could not exist without the energy, imagination, and dedication that they put forth.

o It's easiest to contact the GM, Cerevan / me, via Gmail's Hangout function. I'm cerevanelliquiy on there and always welcome chatting. You can also reach me via PM, the OOC, or this here recruitment thread. Pick your poison.

[Cerevan]

The following are the rules and regulations of Broken Bonds. Please read them. Thoroughly. By applying to the game, you “accept the terms and conditions”, so to speak. We will assume that you have read, understood, and duly accepted said terms and conditions. The rules are enforced and we reserve the right to add rules as necessary.

• No OOC Bullshit. Be excellent to one another.
• No Fucking OOC Bullshit. This includes but is not limited to: being a possessive asshat, badgering for posts, whining about not being popular enough, and generally making people feel like shit. Three strikes and you’re out.
• It’s Okay to Tell Mom. In this case, Cerevan is Mom. If an issue, IC or OOC, has arisen that can’t be reasonably worked out by those involved, please tell me. I will work to come up with a solution that’s fair and to dispense justice if needed. (But I can’t fix what I don’t know about so. Tell me.)
• Don’t God Mod. This ought to go without saying but, just in case.
• Use Your Words. Please try to communicate with other players about potential absences. Whether said absence is due to real life, muse issues, or something else, we will understand.
• Post it Like Fedex. If you are in a group scene, especially a GM-facilitated group scene, you will be expected to post once a week to said scene. All other scenes may be posted to at a rate that you and your partner are comfortable with. Please keep in mind that the game moves forward one IC month for every three OOC months.
• There’s a Trial Period. All submitted characters are accepted on a trial basis only. The trial lasts for three OOC months. At the end of the trial period, if the character has not been put into meaningful play, the character will likely be rejected from receiving permanent status.
• Cruel Gods Exist. And I am one of them. If you leave the game without giving me a vague idea of how you would like your characters’ exits handled, there is a good (96%) chance I will use said characters to provide dramatic fodder. Which may include killing them off. Particularly if they are someone important. “Leaving the game” is defined as: announcing that you’re dropping and/or disappearing for more than three OOC months while failing to respond to the gently querying PMs I will send you somewhere around two and a half months.

Terminology

o Alpha : A Sentinel who has risen to the top of a Tower’s hierarchy. It is primarily a political position though its holders are usually of a military or police background. Alphas coordinate the training of Sentinel within their Tower and liaison with local government and businesses. They are usually, but not always, Bonded to the Omega of the Tower.

o Apprentice : A Guide or, rarely, Sentinel who has been picked out as particularly promising. They study under the Omega or, again rarely, Alpha of their Tower in order to learn their duties and to hone their abilities. Depending on the age of their mentor, an Apprentice may inherit the Tower from their mentor, or else “graduate” off to another Tower that needs new blood.

o Bonded : A connection forged between a Sentinel and a Guide. Bonding requires base compatibility between the two and is strongest when desired by both. However, Bonds can be forced, even if they are often weak. The process of Bonding is most often begun by the Sentinel biting the Guide (often hard enough to draw blood and/or scar) and is followed by days spent in one another’s company to solidify the Bond. Platonic and sexual Bonding are both considered equally valid.

o Bonding Interviews : A process, usually facilitated by the local Omega, by which a Guide is introduced to Sentinel with whom they might be compatible. If a pair are found to be compatible on a personal level as well as an institutional one they may undergo a number of interviews. Three is the usual number before Bonding.

o Cain : A street drug, currently only rumored, that supposedly dials up the animal instincts of Sentinel to near-feral levels. It is unknown at this time who is dealing the drug and what the long term effects of the drug are.

o Divorce : When applied to Sentinel and Guides, it is the process by which the Omega (or another suitably strong and trained Guide) breaks the Bond between a pair. The bureaucratic reason given is almost always “incompatibility”, but what counts for “incompatibility” is…varied.

o Empathy : A power used by Guides. It can be considered a kind of emotional telepathy. Depending on the strength of the Guide wielding it, Empathy can be used to sense, manipulate, create, and otherwise fuck with the emotions of Sentinel, Normals, and even other Guides. Exceptionally strong Guides can break Bonds.

o Guide : A human capable of wielding Empathy. Most Guides present in their late teens. They are notable for their pheromones, which are often described as “the best thing ever” by lovestruck Sentinel. Like Sentinel they tend to be durable, though they lack the innate athletic prowess of Sentinel.

o Guidine : A drug that is the go-to for many Sentinel without a Guide. It dulls their senses to “manageable” levels. It is a legal, if highly controlled, drug that is often used in hospitals and Towers to tranquilize Zoning or otherwise berserk Sentinel in absence of a Guide. Strong doses are administered via injection, while lower doses can be administered via patch or pill. (This is common for Sentinel in stressful lines of work such as military or police.) It is considered highly addictive and there is a substantial black market for the drug.

o Normal : A human who makes it through puberty without presenting as either a Sentinel or a Guide. This does not always mean they lack the requisite genes, only that said genes are latent. They are the largest portion of the population and are considered the “average” baseline for human ability.

o Omega : A Guide who has risen to the top of a Tower’s Hierarchy. While it is a political position similar to the Alpha, an Omega’s power resides primarily within the Tower, and they rarely gain much respect outside it. Omegas coordinate the training of Guides within their Tower, conduct Bonding Interviews, and mentor promising young Guides. It’s expected that an Omega will take on at least one Apprentice.

o Presenting : A term used to describe when a Sentinel or Guide comes into their attributes. It’s often considered part of the more generalized puberty and heralds a kind of “coming of age”.

o Scent Marking : Also referred to simply as “scenting.” An act by which Sentinel will imprint their scent upon something, or someone, that they consider “theirs.” Given that Sentinel have acute senses of smell it’s considered a rather blatant claim. (It can be considered rude.) Scenting is most often accomplished by simply rubbing up against the object and/or person in question.

o Sentinel : A human with enhanced senses, instincts, and athleticism. They most often present in early to mid teens. All Sentinel have a natural durability that allows them survive things more easily than the average human. Their natural athleticism gives them an upper hand in building muscle. Enhanced senses and animal instincts give them an upper hand in most combat and hunting situations. Despite being at the theoretical peak of human physical capability, without a Guide they can easily fall prey to their own hyperactive senses and their baser instincts.

o Watchtower : A piece of tech debuted in 2013 and further refined in 2015. It resembles a cellphone watch, but functions more as a fancy ankle monitor for Tower Guides. Watchtowers have real time GPS tracking, call lines to Guide Care Assistants, and a panic button. If a Guide goes outside the prescribed area the Watchtower has been programmed for coordinates are immediately sent to the nearest police.

o Zoning : A trance-like state Sentinel may enter when overwhelmed by their senses. This can happen due to honing in too sharply on one particular stimuli, attempting to take in too many stimuli at once, or simply being overcome by their instincts. A Sentinel going into a Zone can become more feral. A Sentinel gone into a Zone may become unresponsive.

Factions

Chainbreakers

Leader : Raphael Beauchamp (GM NPC)

About : Founded in 2007 by Raphael Beauchamp. Members have always been drawn primarily from the Wards, particularly the Lower Ninth, and from Treme. This is arguably due to a long-standing tradition within those neighborhoods of not giving up their own. Particularly when the government gets involved. The Chainbreakers have considerable pull and power within the Wards and Treme. Within those boundaries they’re generally viewed as somewhere between folk heroes and tragically necessary troublemakers.

Outside of those boundaries… The Chainbreakers came to public attention soon after their formation due to the tarring and feathering of a local social worker who'd done wrong by the Guides of the Wards. This marked them straight off as very nearly terrorists. They’ve dodged the label by a combination of luck, desperate PR on the Tower’s part, and the simple fact that it’s hard to pin them down for crimes that no one will admit to witnessing. Nonetheless, they do commit acts of terrorism, up to and including small bombings and the murder of particularly corrupt officials.

The Chainbreakers is primarily a violent resistance organization that aims to bring down the Tower system as a whole, starting with the New Orleans Tower. However, they do provide monetary support and manpower to more peaceful forms of resistance and they’re well known for protecting unwilling Guides from the Tower.

TKO | Blackout

Leader : Roman King VI

About : TKO is a local group, founded in New Orleans by Roman King IV, that makes profit within the boxing industry, mostly training and orchestrating matches between members and non-members, and also assisting with relocating guides, their families, and the occasionally normal. Relocation was their primary focus eleven years ago until realization dawned upon them that some form of combative training was essential as well. Not only did it help rebuild broken confidence but it also served as a means of protection within violent encounters. From there, training people became more frequent as rumor spread of their practice until it was no longer feasible to operate out of various basements and sometimes abandoned buildings.

With the purchase of an official building, TKO quickly became a local attraction, not popular enough to garner true success but well-known within the community. A little gruff in appearance, their trainers work hard to ensure whomever pays for lessons does not feel like their money or time was wasted. It is not uncommon to see men, women, or even children. While they sponsor mini tournaments, capable of being viewed publicly, they also host underground events where the gloves come off, so to speak. It is more gore filled and graphic, any hint of civilization is abandoned at the door. Injuries are commonplace here. Still, people come and place their bets upon their favorite fighter or take risks upon newcomers.

Open To : All presentations.

The Tower

Leader : Alpha Jean Dunbar (GM NPC) and Omega Karishma Dunbar (GM NPC)

About : Founded in 1961, the New Orleans Tower is somewhat infamous for taking it’s position in the “Big Easy” perhaps a little too literally. It has produced no Sentinel of particular note, aside from Alpha Caroline Paroix, who only became notable because she died. And it has had a long, distinguished history of not handling it’s scandals very well. If at all. Honestly, it’s a bit of a wreck in the eyes of most other Towers.

Nonetheless, the New Orleans Tower muddles along as best it can. Omega Dunbar has become somewhat popular in New Orleans for the improvements in Guide care that have taken place under her guidance. Alpha Dunbar has significantly strengthened ties with the local Marine Corps base. The PR Department churns dutifully on as it attempts to “spin” the latest issues with the Chainbreakers. Guides and Sentinel alike learn to master their gifts. And the police department…well, they have their hands full, quite frankly.

It’s the status quo. But things may soon change.

Character Creation

o There’s no limit to the number of characters you may create for this game. One, two, three…ninety-nine… (Well, we might stop you before you hit ninety-nine.) Edit : Until November 20th, you are limited to nine characters.
          The caveat to this is that all characters are initially accepted only for a trial period. Trial periods last for one In Character month. Or, roughly, three Out of Character months. If the character has not been established and played within that timeframe, and assuming that the player has not communicated that there are extenuating circumstances, said character will be rejected from receiving permanent status.
          What this trial period is meant to do is allow for players to experiment with character concepts that catch the muse…while also acknowledging that sometimes, something that was tantalizing in concept is significantly less so in execution.

o For reasons of monotony and not having a ridiculous crime rate, players are allowed only two (2) characters with a Tragic (or Not Terribly Tragic) Widowing in their background. The two characters in question may not both be Guides. (E.g., it may be one Sentinel and one Guide, or two Sentinel, but not two Guides.) Choose wisely.

o For reasons of not breaking the world-building, players may only have as many active Guides in play as they have active characters of other presentations (Normal or Sentinel). This may be fudged if, say, someone is creating a Guide in explicit conjunction with another player creating a Sentinel. However, keep in mind the idea that Guides are outnumbered, even if the disparity is meant to be felt primarily by NPCs.

o If there is something about your character and/or their past that you would like kept “secret” from the game until it can be revealed IC, that’s fine! Please put whatever it is you would like to “leave out” in pink when you submit the character sheet for review. Once I’ve approved the sheet, you can take out the pink highlighted portions and leave the cast to wonder at the mystery.

o Sheets should be PM'd to Cerevan and titled "Broken Bonds - Character Name" to keep things neat.

Desired & Available Roles

Below are some desired, suggested, or otherwise available roles for all three dynamics with a variety of affiliations. If you want some clarification about a role, just ask, I’ll be happy to clarify! It’s important to note that just because a role does not appear on this listing does not mean it’s unavailable for play. If you have a concept, run it by me, I’ll most likely say yes! Essentially, this is just a starting place. It allows me to point out particular roles I as the GM would like to see filled. It also allows you, as a potential player, to see some areas that come with the potential for both plot points and character connections right out of the gate.

Note : Guide positions marked Bonded Only may, on occasion, include Guides who have been Widowed or Divorced. This will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.

look at my shiny i am so proud of it.

Aaaand with that folks, we are open for business!

What's the character line up look like so far?

Let me hear all your lovely character ideas~

[bubby]

ERMERGERD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are we allowed to bring back our previous chars? ..... if I can even find her...

[Cerevan]

@ Everyone : Yessssss, come into my pretty web. >:)

Are we allowed to bring back our previous chars? ..... if I can even find her...

Yes, you're allowed, nay, encouraged to bring back old characters. Modified to fit the new setting, of course. ;) And I think you should be able to find her in here?

[Emjay]

Lol! I posted Jon and then you post Rob

FOUND HER! Awesomesauce. I'm back home from England tomorrow night, but it'll take me a couple days to get acclimated again to allow for my brain to do the necessary tweaking to her. Will a couple/few days be ok, or is that too long?

Swwweeet. Thanks luv.

Also: check my A/A's for a small few out of the several thousand pics I've taken. I'll have more up in a couple days. A few key words which could allow you to get your Google-Fu on, if your interested. Alnwick Gardens, Garton on the Wolds, Rosslyn Chapel, York Minster, Castle Howard, Edinburgh Castle.... 

... to name just a few.  ::)

I thought it was just perfect, I swear. >3>;;;

Also, in the works, I'm having a very blunt and quite a douchebag of an Asian guy who's a hacker and forger coming up. And I also have a female smart-arse yet very charming and laid-back British doctor coming up too. I'm debating on a third character though, but if I do bring that character over, it would be another Asian guy.

Me and my Asianness. >3> It shall spread throughout this game~

[Flower]

Hey guys. My name is Flower. I used to go by Dancing Flower but that was a while ago. Anyways, I have a troubling addiction. I spend way too much time on tumblr and have a lot of voices in my head. I know; weird. It's a character addiction. I just can't help myself. Despite my feeble attempts to resist their powerful sway, I have more than two characters in the works for this game. Anyways, here are a few...


-Alexander is my Sentinel. He used to work for the tower but has since split away from them. He's kind of my adrenaline junkie.
-Payton is a guide. She's currently a doctor at the tower. A bit posh, slightly prejudiced against norms, and horrible bedside manner. She was bonded but her mate perished during the flood. Some people don't think his death was an accident.
-Vera is another guide of mine. She's pretty aggressive and violent. Also works for the tower. I'm thinking she transferred in from a foreign one.
-Roman is my sentinel. He owns the TKO club. He's pretty much a grouch. xD

And there are potentially some others in the works as well. >.> I need to work through these sheets first though.

I still need to work on their history but that's the bare bones of it.

[Flower]

Tell us more about them! >D

I may also be guilty of the multiple character bug. Oops.

But every game set in the South needs a disgruntled priest, right? Right.

Amen!

[Kokaine]

*snickers at Flower*

I think we all know I have an issue with character hoarding >.>

A few of my pending characters:

- Nathalia Rocha - Bonded Guide from London - Her day job is working for the Private Security Company her father (a sentinel) owns, outside of that she's a Guide trainer for the Chainbreakers. She's a damn near OCD, no nonsense type that's every bit as dangerous as her Sentinel. Is not fond of "mess" of any type.
- Shay - Sentinel - Adopted sister of Xander - A headstrong exhibitionist with abandonment issues who drags up trouble from her search to find her birth parents
- Nemesis - Sentinel - Problem Solver/Enforcer type for the TKOs - She's a weird mix of bubbly sweetness and pure crazy. She likes pain and violence. Doesn't trust guides since her father was one and he messed up both her and her mother so she's a guidine addict.
- Spencer Dean - not sure yet if she's a guide or sentinel, either way she's terrible at being "not normal" - Pure Techie, kinda like an awkward puppy, not yet sure of her affiliation
- Contessa Rose Levesque - Rogue Guide, loosely affiliated with the TKOs - Own a burlesque club, is a tattoo artist, and helps with hiding/moving those who don't wish to be found.


There are others but uh... yeah... *cough*

[Izaya Orihara]

Hmm...

Well, my curiosity is piqued, at the very least. Not sure if I'll join, but at the very least, I have an eye on this.

FOUND HER! Awesomesauce. I'm back home from England tomorrow night, but it'll take me a couple days to get acclimated again to allow for my brain to do the necessary tweaking to her. Will a couple/few days be ok, or is that too long?

Meanwhile, I came back yesterday to England from a holiday in France, Germany, Austria and Italy. Though the bits in France and Germany were overnight stays with a visit to Colmar and Rheims Cathedral (the latter whilst I was at a hotel in Rheims). I spent 5 days in the Austrian Alps and 5 days in north east Italy (near Venice).

Anyway, hope you enjoyed yourself here in Britain.

[Kuroneko]

Hmmmm, tentatively interested  ::)

I may also be guilty of the multiple character bug. Oops.

But every game set in the South needs a disgruntled priest, right? Right.

Looove the priest idea! And if I must  :P I've got:

Camilla is a Guide. She works for the Tower and is more than a little unhinged. A miserable childhood followed by a lonely adulthood hasn't left her with much sanity. She has a seriously twisted moral code (won't make much sense to others but it makes total sense to her). When she's not at the Tower she works as a mildly successful artist.

Zeke is a Guide. He's a chemist that works for TKO and creator of their experimental drug, Caine. When he's not coming up with crazy concoctions in the lab he's working on his Master's degree in Pharmacology & Toxicology.

Markus is a Sentinel. He works as a 'trainer' for TKO as well as a Transporter. He's kind of a giant (6'7") and is a complete beast in the fighting ring, especially when he's on the drug Caine. As a Transporter he helps take Guides on the run to their new homes and makes sure that they reach their destination safely. He's not a man of many words but as long as you're not an abusive Sentinel or one of his opponents, you'll be fine xD

Garrett is a Sentinel. He's a trainer for The Chainbreakers and by day he works as a web developer. Those he trains may come to hate him, he likes to keep his pupils on their toes. As he says, "There are no guarantees on the field, no set plan. Anything can happen." As for others they'll just see him for the goofball that he is. Even so, he's fierce on the field.

Anaïs is a Guide. She works for the Tower as a secretary but has ambitions to work in the Archives (it is literally her dream job). She's a hardy sort of person, had a rough life and therefore has a serious problem asking for help. She highly values her independence...too bad she's a guide.


Also yay more people!

[Amarlo]

Eeeeeee, yes, join us! Pleeeease! ;D

I'll see what I can do. ^^;

[Dotley]

Yeeesss, let there be more Asian characters! This, I approve.

They will come! I just gotta finish their profiles >D

      



Ee! Everyone's characters sound awesome so far. Can't wait to read full profiles for all the lovelies and start plotting.

[Amarlo]

Can guides only help sentinels they're bonded to or can they help unbound sentinels, even if only a little?

[Cerevan]

Can guides only help sentinels they're bonded to or can they help unbound sentinels, even if only a little?

A Guide can help (or otherwise influence) a Sentinel they are not bonded to. The stronger a Guide is, the more Sentinel they can affect at any given time / the more strongly they can affect a Sentinel who is not "theirs". Unbonded Guides usually don't go around influencing Sentinel these days. More because it's potentially dangerous than because they can't.

However, it's pretty standard for bonded Guides to use their Empathy on Sentinel they aren't Bonded with. For example, SWAT Teams always have at least one bonded Guide on them to keep all the Sentinel from potentially going bonkers during a sensitive mission. Guides tend to become stronger once they've bonded. A Bond works kind of like a prism for Guide's abilities. Gives it focus and precision and so on. And, obviously, a Guide's influence will always be strongest on their own Sentinel. Because biology and soul bonds and shit.

Just everyone knows it, I love plots. If you're struggling with a concept, I don't mind collaborating with folks, whether we make family members or whatever. I have a few stand alone characters who can be fleshed out more with that type of plotting.

Same goes for me. I enjoy when my character feels immersed in the game via plots and connections as opposed to just being written all off to the side in a secret corner of the universe xD

In particular I am looking for plots (romantic or non) for Contessa (fc is Cervena Fox, will be a rogue guide, particularly attracted to folks she shouldn't be >.<) and Spencer (fc is Emily Bett Rickards, could go guide or sentinel, affiliation is open as well), though Im always open to tossing ideas around.

GM Announcements

Hey y'all, glad to see so much chattering going on in the thread. A few announcements and then we can get back to our regularly scheduled programming.

1. We've have a minor tweak to the character sheets. Just one extra line of code. You can get the updated version (and steal the one extra line of code) here in the recruitment thread. All this tweak does is give a place on the sheet for you to say whether the character is in the trial period or if they've received permanent status. Pretty self-explanatory. Please do the thing. It will keep me from crying.

2. The OOC and the Accepted Character threads are now open and ready for business!

3. It has come to my attention that it my attempt to keep this recruitment thread concise (what bullshit, I know, it's tragic) I neglected to properly outline the many ways in which Guides are fucked over by society. Namely, your Guide character, especially if they have not turned themselves into the Tower and/or have not Bonded, has likely not:

     o been able to attend any kind of schooling post highschool, including but not limited to university, community college, or trade school
     o been able to hold down any kind of job that requires security clearances or background checks
     o been able to get a job outside of the service industry and/or under the table type gigs of questionable legality, really
     o been able to vote
     o been able to travel outside of the country
     o been able to get on an airplane
     o been able to...basically live like a normal human being, to be honest

Obviously there are ways to get around these kinds of restrictions, if the character is clever. But before you get overly invested in the idea of your unbonded rogue Guide having two PhDs, please talk to me and see what kind of workarounds are really feasible. I promise I'm not trying to be a hardass...it's just not much of a dystopia if the worldbuilding gets broke right out the gate, am I right?

[Ouroboros]

Hey y'all! I am interested in this, most def, and also Dotley has given me ideas mostly by being enthusiastic about the game. (Also I love New Orleans.) Unfortunately, I also have work in the morning. Can I call dibs on Daveed Diggs and Big Freedia as faceclaims for now and post a couple of Chainbreakerish/Neutralish concepts later?

[Dotley]

Yay Ouro <3

[Ouroboros]

Well... I mean. New Orleans. <3

Also I have

adorkable

plans to

rule the world.

As one does.

[Flower]

Just wanted to mention the first of my batch of characters has been approved! Super open for connections.

You already know I'm a fan of that guy.  :o Lmfao.

As for me, still here. Working on concepts with one of my lovely buddies, waiting to see if he's going to actually take the dive before I start flailing about like a desperate fish out of water. :P

[Flower]

I think he's one of my favorite guy characters.

I hope you have luck with your friend.^_^

[Relikai]

Very interesting!

Lots of reading, but I'll get down to it, and hopefully I'll get it right ;)

[CurvyKitten]

Muse Juice is failing me here, mrr. Sorry but I may not be able to pull something together here. ~pouts~ Pulling inerest for now, have fun though folks!

Sorry to see you go, Curves. 💝

Placing a faceclaim tag for 2-3 characters.

Male - Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
Females - Kashiwagi Yuki

[Timeless]

Awww, I was hoping we could write together again, Curvy! ;3; No worries though, we'll definitely have the chance in another game, perhaps.

Also, glad to see your interest, Relikai! Can't wait to see on what you would do with the faceclaims.

[Emjay]

Also I would like to switch out Berta Vazquez for Kehlani Parrish. I would also like to claim Emily Blunt.

I know I was originally interested in making Emily Blunt second in command at the Chainbreakers but I've decided I'd rather make a Normal and so I would like to claim Shraddha Kapoor. I would love to make her the secretary to the Omega if possible.

[Flower]

Tiniest of bumps. I do hope more people join.

[Kuroneko]

I'm sorry everyone, but my teaching load is proving far too busy to consider taking on any new RPs.

Have fun all :-)

[Emjay]

xD Ems, switchin' it up  :-*

::)

Alrighty so three of my charries are up in the accepted thread. Reika and Anaïs are both set to be bonded but are open to all other sorts of connections. Camilla is open for a potential bond as well as other connections. Feel free to shoot me a PM!

[bubby]

I'm home, I'm back, and I'm pretty sure I'm ready to get this writing thing back underway!

Is the Chainbreakers Second still open?

[Dotley]

Just wanted to drop a quick note on character ideas and potential plotty opportunities to try and entice any lurkers out there to join in the fun.

Father Theo || Is my whiskey drinking, chain smoking, and swearing priest. I think we've established that every story set in the South needs a priest. We got one now, but we could always use another. The only thing better than one priest is two priests, right? A nun would be awesome to see as well. Besides the clergy I'd love to have someone (or someones) around to play a longterm game of tempt the pastor. Perhaps someone else that is a fellow fixture of the community, like a bartender or something.

Mimi || The Public Relations Director of the Tower. It'd be fantastic for her to have some coworkers to plot with, especially some fellow middle aged peeps for her to team up with to squash the Resistance and raise community support for the Tower. Also some submissive boys for her to play with would be lovely.

[Relikai]

I'm lining up two characters soon, placing their summaries here to see if they're possible :)

Katori Yuki, an unaffiliated Sentinel who works as an underground fighter and occasionally other jobsto earn a living.

Jovian Austermann, an unaffiliated Normal who works as a financial stock trader, frequents brothels and fighting clubs to satisfy his depressed life.


Question - Would it be possible to have an unbonded Sentinel?

[Cerevan]

GM Announcements

IC Game Threads will be launching tomorrow @ roughly 3PM EST. (I know, right?) This is the nudge to get to plotting and figuring out your opening scenes. I'll be going through applications tonight in order to push through those currently sitting in my inbox. If you haven't gotten all your characters in yet, no worries. This is an always recruiting game.

For those of you who're ready to plot and ready to write, our game will be opening in January 2017. Available dates for play stretch from Jan. 1st to Jan. 23rd. (There's a reason for why you may go no further than the 23rd but...for now it's a secret. Shhhh.) A tagging system will be provided for posting. It's up to y'all to keep track that you're not breaking the time / place continuum with any characters. ;)

As always, if you have any questions, feel free to PM me or hit me up on Gchat.

[Cerevan]

Is the Chainbreakers Second still open?

Theoretically, yes. See PM for more details. ;)

They both look excellent! At least so far as the concepts go. I look forward to seeing the fleshed out sheets.

As to whether or not it's possible to have an unbonded Sentinel... Yes, definitely. In fact, with the way the world building is set up, it's safe to assume that most Sentinel are unbonded. Tally ho!

[Vael the Destroyer]

Paint me potentially interested. I has to read all the things after work and school today. Then I'll have a final verdict.

[Dotley]

Yay Sym <3

[Vael the Destroyer]

I couldn't resist once I saw, especially since it takes place in New Orleans. ;)

Now, I am simply just terribly torn between bringing back dear, sweet Eliseo - who would be... Different, so to speak - and bringing forth a new morsel with this face.

And my second dilemma stems from wanting to either bring Mr. Talon Zephyr Grant along for the ride, or summoning forth the greasy Lady Gaga as my first ever Ace Cis-female body.

It's a toughie.

[Flower]

I had a similar issue. I couldn't make up my mind and ended up bringing all of them.  ::)

[Vael the Destroyer]

Oh my. XD

I am limiting myself to two, and only two characters. We shal see how my mind goes.

[Dotley]

Count me in as having that issue as well x]

They all sound lovely, Sym!

[Vael the Destroyer]

We'll figure it out.

Though was that a picture of Elliot I saw further back in this thread? >:)

Please say yes.

[Dotley]

Yep! Slightly revamped, but it's still Elliot. He's living in the Tower this time around though :3

[Vael the Destroyer]

OHMYGODYES.

That is beautiful.

Oh trust me, I will be joining the beauty. And in the Tower nonetheless. ;)

[Faustus]

*debates silently and sneakily in the corner*

[Dotley]

Faustus! <3

[Faustus]

<3~ Hiya, Dot! It seemed kinda wrong to not consider this game given, haha~ There's a lot to consider (do I revive an oldie? Port a new beloved? Design a brand new? Decisions. . .), but I'm definitely thinking about it.

[Dotley]

It's a rough choice. But I'm sure whoever you decide on will be great!

[Vael the Destroyer]

We need the Faustus...

[Faustus]

We need the Faustus...

Need me? Now you're going to fuel my ego. . . ;)

[Cerevan]

Amg, a wild Faustus appears! Quick, who's got a Pokeball? We can't let a Legendary get away!

More srsly tho, we'd be delighted to have ya. ;D

[Vael the Destroyer]

Need me? Now you're going to fuel my ego. . . ;)

Your beautiful, poetic writing is a breath of fresh air to the souls of anyone lucky enough to read it.

It's your civic duty to breathe fresh air into souls.

[Faustus]

AMG YOU TWO I AM BLUSHING

Gee, now I gotta do it. Cere, I know the game JUST launched, but are there any positions you really need filled from the start? I can start working some things in that direction. . .

[Flower]

Yay more people!

[Faustus]

Hm. . . Definitely asking to have George Blagden placed on reserve for a FC. Look who is coming back ahhh Debating on the others right now~

[Cerevan]

Gee, now I gotta do it. Cere, I know the game JUST launched, but are there any positions you really need filled from the start? I can start working some things in that direction. . .

Well, I mean, really anything in the Tower or the Chainbreakers would be super helpful. The more bodies I got there the more I can pit them against one another in brutal combat intense philosophical disagreements. Specifically I would passionately love to have a Chief of Police for the Tower. Or just, y'know, someone general in the police. For the Tower. It's really pretty open though. :-)

[Faustus]

You got it~~ <3 I'll see what I can do for you!

[Vael the Destroyer]

Mkay, so I'm gonna make dibs on the face claim for Sergio Carvajal.

God, all of my cast is gonna be re-vamps. :P

Mkay, so I'm gonna make dibs on the face claim for Sergio Carvajal.

God, all of my cast is gonna be re-vamps. :P

I like him!

Although mine aren't from the original game. :P

[Vael the Destroyer]

He is gonna be the sentinel that closes the Symphonic trifecta. Then I will have one of each character.

[Dotley]

Figured I'd post this question here since others might be wondering as well :-)

Ouro and I are noodling over a pair of Tower police offers/detectives. How similar do Tower police function to real life police? Are they the same/separate? Should PC police peeps have a specific department they work (like vice or homicide or etc etc) or should their jobs be more generalized and flexible so they're available for more plotlines and interaction opportunities?

[Vael the Destroyer]

I have a bunny in my head. Looking for a good friend for Dr. Talon Grant. He more than likely would only be close to those who are Tower, unaffiliated, or work at TKO. Male or female does not matter. Would just enjoy for there to be someone for the doc to talk to and have drinks with. :)

If interested shoot me a pm.

I have one character in mind who may fit the bill! I'll be PMing you shortly. XD

Tower police are "the police" in cities that have a Tower, towns than have a Tower auxiliary office, etc. They're made up of both Sentinel and Normals, though particularly in Tower cities there's an obvious preference in promotions etc. for Sentinel. (Normal police officers wouldn't be out of place for resenting that. :P ) Technically, there are also state police and federal officers (e.g. FBI) who are not Tower. Jurisdictional grey areas are frequent. America!

There are departments within the Tower police, specifically: Arson, Counter-Resistance (go after violent resistance groups, e.g. Chainbreakers), Homicide, Hunting (look for rogue Guides), Theft (includes burglary, auto theft, etc.), Vice (focused primarily on drug running), and White Collar Crime. All beat cops and detectives have generalized training in everything except White Collar Crime and Arson. Generally speaking, newbies will spend the first two or three years drifting between departments until they show promise in one area. (Or get kicked out whoops.)

PC cops, unless they're top level types, should have a department they answer to. As a GM suggestion, I would point to Counter-Resistance, Homicide, Hunting, and Vice as choice spots to get in on the action. However, choosing another department won't necessarily mean you're cut out of doing police-y stuff. There will be events happening that will, ahem, "require inter-departmental cooperation".

[Cerevan]

Sooooo just to save people some time. (And me some time whoop.) I'm looking for connections for my four characters. Plz hit me up for scenes or plots or whatever. I will love you. (Also, please note that I'm open for things beyond what's suggested here.)

Kieran "Kie" Matthews : Guide | Tower | Bond Spoken For The Apprentice of the New Orleans Omega. Available for all kinds of scenes requiring an older, experienced Guide in a position of authority in the Tower; or for any scenes (Bonding interviews, Divorces, etc.) requiring an Omega that you don't want to do with the NPC Omega. Also for general slice of life scenes. Needs friends, mentees, and probably someone to butt heads with.

Lachlann "Lachie" Faulkner : Guide | TKO | Bond Spoken For New arrival to New Orleans via a Guide trafficking ring. Stalked the leader of TKO into taking her in and is currently terrorizing him (and his employees) with her baking, hugs, and general ability to generate spontaneous rainbows of joy. Available for most scenes involving Resistance or Neutral people, or perhaps Tower people who aren't...y'know. Likely to drag her away. Needs friends and a Guide mentor.

Briony Devon : Normal | Neutral | Open for Plotting Pied Piper of the Ninth. Takes in underage Sentinel who've ended up on the streets in order to keep them away from Guidine and worse. Actually rather good with Sentinel, in general, or at least as good as anyone gets without being a Guide. Protects her own. Available for scenes with literally anyone of any association, though she avoids Tower people as a general rule. Needs friends, maybe coworkers, and a person or two willing to take on a strong-willed Normie. (Yeah, looking for a poly arrangement here. Cough. Cough.)

Caleb Devon : Sentinel | Chainbreakers | Bond Spoken For Third in command, roughly, of the Chainbreakers. Runs many of their more explosive (heh) operations. Fairly well known in the Ninth for less illegal things like his mechanic shop and his love of poetry. Needs other Chainbreaker / resistance types, friends, and some cops to play cat and fucking mouse with.

[Ouroboros]

Why what a coincidence I also happen to be looking for scenes! I shall message you soon, I certainly shall. In the meantime, I am looking for scenes and connections for...

Brian Darbonne - Normal, Chainbreaker, QT BB. Aside from the obvious Chainbreaker connections, I'm looking for potential friends and local connections. He lives in Mid-City and works in the Central Business District, but he spends time in Treme and hangs out wherever interesting things are happening. Open for drama!

Randall Wilson/The Queen - Secret Guide, Local Color, In the Know The Queen is involved in the underground, and is a consummate performer. Others may know her from her club, from her gossip, or simply from her presence around the city; she tends to avoid the Tower, but not overtly. There's just not a reason for her to seek that sort of thing out. I'm down for friendships, rivalries, Sentinels to run away from and/or murder, and whatever else comes to mind.

Cassius Thibault - Sentinel & Dirty Tower Cop Cas is likeliest to know two classes of people - cops and sex workers. If you're playing either, I'm interested in plotting with you.

Please note that I don't pre-plan relationships - romantic entanglements happen as they may but I have no set plans.

Welcome Jet!

I forgot to mention in my fishing post that it would be nice if there was just a teensy bit more of straight guys or maybe even bi-girls/dudes. :)

Specifically, for myself, I am looking for a male guide for my character, Leila. Please be forewarned that their bond isn't going to last. I just thought it might be nice to have a connection walking through the door.

Umm, I'm also looking for a sentinel bond for my doctor, Payton.

Feel free to message me if interested. Thanks a dozen.

Hi Flower and Koka! <3

Annnd Jas is all for swinging all of the ways.


And is a Guide... >_>
though I can't make any Bonding promises because he is a shit.

[Ouroboros]

*perks up*

Jas is a shit, you say? Is he also a garbage person? Inquiring minds want to know...

[jetblackmirror]

*perks up*

Well, I suppose by shit I mean he is largely disinterested in relationships, besides one-night stand situations. He likes to pretend he's an asshole.
But he's a squishy bear.

So... he's a good person, but he's good at acting like he isn't.
O:)

[Ouroboros]

Awwwwwww

Trash cops need garbage people! >:(

[Ouroboros]

Not to say that Jas isn't cool though. On the contrary! I am just being selfish. ;)

[jetblackmirror]

:P IT'S GOOOOD

He's going to be a pit fighter.
Because sweaty, bloody men appeal to me deeply.

[Pockets]

Well I sent Cerevan a character bio last night for a straight guy who is nominally open, he has a fluctuating relationship with Michelle (one of Koka's characters) and if I can come up with another character I'll throw something together.

[Dotley]

More garbage people needed for the trashy poly web.



And yay to both Jet and Pockets! New peeps are awesome  :-)

[Amelita]

Am working on a straight guy and have a bi one in my head. That should complete my roster here if they end up ready and approved.

If anyone wants a bi dick of an Ames guy for plotting purposes or as history filler, pm me! (A Reed/Sean type, for those who know what that means).

[Vael the Destroyer]

I would totally just like to throw out there that I'm totes up for more bi/gay characters joining the crew. I'd love to see a rough-and-tumble takes-no-shit sentinel waiting on the other end for my darling little Eliseo.  >:)

[jetblackmirror]

Eliseooooooo <3

[Kokaine]

Currently still looking for both connections and scenes!

Shay (Unbonded Sentinel), Royce (Bonded Sentinel), Paris (To Be Bonded Sentinel), Spencer (Unbonded Guide), and Rory (Unbonded Sentinel) are all open to plots of all kinds. I'd like to work out an actual story for these characters though all are pretty much spoken for romantically and bond-wise (though Shay is open to a guide of her own if they are interested in a poly arrangement).

Shannon "Shay" Gutierrez - A sentinel returning home from Colombia to face the mess she left behind. She's unaffiliated with either the Tower or the Resistance but there are whispers of other connections trailing her.

Loick Royce O'Rourke - A cop come to chase down the guide who sought to use him for a bond then flee. He's a good man to have at your back in a fight though a bad one to be facing down.

Lt Delicia "Rory" Vega - A military Sentinel crashing hard. She's losing time and possibly her career. I'd love to have her best friend around or fellow Navy (or even Marine) buddies.

Spencer Falkenreath - A stray guide, both brilliant and not all there, with an unnatural obsession with death. I'd like to get her a connection to the coroner or medical examiner in New Orleans, or perhaps the person who runs the crematorium she works at. She might prove to be an excellent assistant there, or perhaps for someone with a darker agenda.

Jillian "Paris" Kendrick - A tv personality and kind of an all around uppity bitch. She's gonna get hers real soon but she's still open to friends, enemies, rivals, and others who might make her think and question more than what outfit she's going to wear that day.

[Amarlo]

Okay, so! What do you guys have the most of? Sentinels or Guides? I could honestly play either or. Anyone looking for anything specific?

[Timeless]

In my honest opinion, play whatever you want. There are more Sentinels than Guides, but that is how it should be since it's somewhat fitting with the setting. You can make a Guide though if you feel like it. There aren't that many Normals though. What I do recommend is checking the available positions of which alliance you might be interested to have your character to be in.

[Flower]

There are 16 guides, 16 sentinels, and 8 normals.  :-)

I think there are a few requests listed in here. I plucked out a few but this isn't all of them.

If I'm to play a guide I'm definitely most interested in potentially starting out or having a history of being a Trafficking Victim, but there are many other things I'm interested in as well - especially some sort of random resistance member or Chainbreaker member.

However, I'd rather ask and see if anyone is looking for anything in particular before I just throw a random character out there.

Just as a note for anyone of interest, I typically play straight-demisexual females. However the demisexual part is more negotiable depending on the plotline.  ::)

I am very pm friendly and prefer them!

GM Announcements

An update on what we're looking for and what's been closed:

o Blackout / TKO has been closed to new members, except for fighters. (This may open up again in late November / early December, but is not a guarantee.)

o We have currently reached a "max" with characters who own shit and / or run some available location. (Again, this may open up at a later date, but is not a guarantee.) If you are interested in having a character work someplace that has bodies already involved, please feel free to check out any of the following : Xander's Diner (not official name, local diner, contact Flower), Bayou Belle's (Coyote Ugly style bar in French Quarter, contact Cerevan), Surge (local club, contact Ouroboros), and Noah's Ark (dive bar of the Ninth, contact Cerevan).
     Caveat : If you feel like you have a really creative idea for a location, feel free to run it by me. Bars / clubs / etc. will be dismissed outright. Same with underground fight rings. Restaurants are dubious.

o In need of more Chainbreakers characters. Most of the positions are still wide open. Again, we need some resistance people who're ready and willing to raise hell.

[Lady Kitsune]

So I am intrigued. I even had to go read a few chapters of Chameleon.   :P  I'm thinking Chainbreaker......

[Cerevan]

[Ryven]

Can I be a neutral Arms Dealer? :O

[Amarlo]

So... Is anyone interested in taking me on as a bond/love interest for their male character? ;D

Adopt an Amarlo today! She comes with everything pre-installed and plot friendly! She's the perfect size to fit into just about anyone's pocket! And when you poke her she's really squeaks! Get her free today!

Only comes in female heterosexual selections. Packaging and handling not included. Resulting interactions may vary.

Not to mention a certain local personality - oh did I type that out where people can see it? Oops.

Excellent.  I may not have a sheet up soonish, but I'll try to by the end of the week.

[Ryven]

I lied.  Just sent my character.

[bubby]

I suck and my shift sucks but I still really wanna play and can I still play in the Chainbreakers?

[Kokaine]

For any lurkers out there, I am still looking for some non-bond centric storylines for my characters!

Fighters up for a rivalry. Military buddies. Police connections. Folks in the media. Gangsters/thugs/other undesirables. There's room for all types ^^

[Ouroboros]

Garfield and Cassius both need other military people as well as other cops - Dotley and I can probably work with you on those fronts. :D

And I can also offer up The Queen for general shenanigans.

Yep yep! Echoing this. Gar is available for police plotlines or interacting with former or current soldiers.

The peer support group scene for veterans and/or currently enlisted peeps is also open for anyone to drop their character into  :-)

Hey y'all. There's been some real life shit going on. I'm going to be taking a break from E for a month (until 11/17) to take a breather and get a handle on my mental health. My characters and scenes will be on pause. I will not be responding to PMs. I will still be sort-of-available on Google Chat.

But GM-related shit should be directed to Stygia. She'll be handling character approvals, any OOC drama that crops up, etc.

Otherwise, please carry on as usual and enjoy the game. I'll see you in a month, my darlings!
