I'll have a character finished later when I get back from the gym.

Even I'm having a hard time keeping up with the pace and I'm supposed to be the GM.

Not a complaint, just a pointing out that people having problems keeping up aren't alone. :P

I have a female character idea if there is still room. It could also be re-worked as a male, but you seem to need Females at the moment.

Name: Kiki Smith
Gender:Female
Age: 20

Description:  A short girl with brown skin, brown eyes and long dark hair. Her racial heritage is unknown as she was raised in foster homes, but she appears to be Latin american, southeast Asian, or otherwise multi-racial.

Personality: Apparently overly friendly and playful, and seems to flirt with everyone, even to the point where it might become obnoxious. If you give her any attention she will attempt to get closer and closer until you set some very clear boundaries. This also makes it very easy to manipulate her, but some people who try often find that she ends up using them as much as the other way around. If she seems quick to latch onto people, she's even quicker to fight back against perceived aggression from others, but she's also a very forgiving person as well and can easily be locked into cyclical relationships, abusive or otherwise. She's also a huge nerd with a lot of diverse interests ranging from science fiction to horror, to occultism and even computer science. She's studding programming but probably missed her calling as a fiction writer.

Sexuality: Bisexual, and submissive, but also capable of mood swings if she's off her medication. She's also used to using sex (or at least flattery) to get people to take care of her, which can manifest as apparent sexual aggression if she thinks that's what somebody wants. She tends to find the strongest person in the room and suck up to them, literally or figuratively.

Skills & Talents:

  • Knowledge of pop culture and a verity of esoteric subjects ranging from science to occultism, although frequently more grounded in fantasy than reality.
  • Basic computer programming, the kind they teach in community college. She's not a hacker or anything, but she wishes she was.
  • Possibly the ability to channel spirits including demons and possibly even AIs. Whether or not she's actually communicating with the AI is irreverent, because at some point she will claim to be doing so. It's up to the Gm to decide if they want to use this hook or not, and up to the players to decide if they believe Kiki is telling the truth, lying to make herself important, or just losing her mind.

Background: Kiki doesn't remember her early childhood and grew up in (mostly white) foster homes, some of whom may or may not have been abusive. To make up for a perceived lack of a past, she developed an extreme interest in science fiction, horror, and fantasy. In particular stories about Spirits, demons, AIs and government conspiracies. Not all of her foster parents approved of this however, some of them decided that they were un-unhealthy obsession for a girl in her position and tried to get her to stop reading or watching these kinds of stories. This wasn't enough to stop her however, as she rebelled against her foster parents and ran away from home many times. Sometimes living on the street and even resorting to survival prostitution at the age of 16.

If reading too many "weird books" was "unhealthy", taking them away proved to be even worse. After multiple cycles of escaping, getting re-captured, appealing to a sympathetic social worker, and getting re-settled in another Forster home, she was eventually diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, and compulsive lying, and possibly paranoid schizophrenia. She started telling people that in her "Real culture" (which she realistically would know nothing about) she would have been a respected Shaman capable of channeling otherworldly spirits rather than "Crazy" or "A Victim of domestic abuse." She also insisted that her social workers and doctors were part of a shadowy government conspiracy to control her "psychic powers." The fact that these stories always seemed to line up with the plot of some anime she had recently watched, did not seem to phase her at all.

Eventually of course, the establishment won. She was placed in a new home, and given medication which appeared to solve the problem. She no longer makes up stories, and nobody thinks she's suffering from schizophrenia anymore. It was all just a bad coping strategy for dealing with the stress of growing up in foster homes. As long as she takes her pills she's able to participate in normal society. And now she's even living on her own and going to College, studding computer programming and turning her interest in science fiction into reality.

Or at least that's the way things were until two days ago. Now she's living with a bunch of naked strangers and doesn't have her pills anymore. Uh oh...

On & Offs: Cuddling, Oral sex, "Whatever you're into." Any kind of fantasy or make believe. She actualy prefers oral sex (giving and receiving) to vaginal sex, but if she gets the idea that the AI wants her to make babies, she'll probably start desperately trying to get pregnant. The only real limits here should be MY limits as a role-player, if she were real she'd probably be more flexible than I am, as she's somebody who more or less lets the world roll over her without resisting. I hope this character isn't too meta/creepy. I've just been on a binge lately reading about Shamanism and Mental Illness, but I can understand how this might freak people out if I took it too far.

We're going for a semi-realistic setting. So no supernatural stuff, no superpowers.

Think like if the people who ran The Cube were perverts. Think that kind of character.

Otherwise, Kiki is fine. :P

Like I said, Kiki isn't really a super character. She's just convinced that she's being manipulated by supernatural forces. I think it's a fairly realistic depiction of mental illness, as somebody who's been institutionalized briefly, and who knows people who have had it worse than me.

Also consider the possibility that Kiki doesn't believe anything she's saying, and is only pretending as part of her old survival strategy. I want this to be ambiguous.

Name: Gerard Atlas
Gender: Male
Age: 36

Description: Gerard is a healthy, well-built individual  who obviously takes care of himself. Standing in at 6’4” tall and 245 lbs. of well chiseled muscle. Gerard is a big guy. The only thing that shows that he’s actually human is the traditionally done Japanese tattoo of a phoenix and a dragon swirling on his right bicep into the form of a yin-yang symbol.

Personality:  Gerard is a rather relaxed individual. He doesn’t get upset about most things, but he does get protective of his own.

Sexuality: Hetero-sexual, Dominant

Skills & Talents:  Physical Trainer - Gerard is a health nut and can help just about anyone get into the shape that they want if they’re willing to put in the effort.

Culinary Skills – Gerard completed culinary arts school because he wanted to give a healthy, but still great tasting nutrition plan to his clients.

Languages: Gerard speaks Spanish, German, Cantonese, and Japanese fluently enough that he can easily be understood in the nations where these are the primary languages.

Background:  Gerard was born into one of those can’t win families where for everything that went right, a half dozen things would go wrong. Most of it stemmed from the fact that his parents were both trying to get by on high school diplomas and real life experience. It wasn’t that they didn’t work hard, it was that they had to work harder than normal just to support the family. So it meant that whenever he did see his parents, they were usually too exhausted to do anything with him.

So during high school when he developed an addiction to powerlifting, he decided that he wanted to be a personal trainer. So he went to college to get the appropriate degrees and certificates. But as he studied and looked at all of the programs and diets, he found that most were bland and tasteless. So he continued with school by getting Culinary Arts degree.

Shacking up with a former client that wound up being a supermodel certainly gave him a boost in clientele. In fact, his exercise program, supplement line, and nutrition program became global phenomenons. He had more money than he knew what to do with. Then came the lawsuits where people tried suing him for mislabeling his programs or supplement line.

However, his programs were backed by real science and his supplements were the genuine article. So that only helped draw more attention to him and his program.

Now he wakes up finding himself naked in a room, in a building not his own. Wondering what the hell is going on,

On & Offs: See player O/O’s.

Opening this up to see if we can get more Female characters.

The ideal gender ratio! The guys have lots of women to fuck, and the girls can entertain themselves without having to be bothered by desperate guys.

Although I think I'm most comfortable in groups smaller than this, possibly with more non-player characters to make things seem crowded without having to worry about stepping on another player's toes. Not that I'm not having fun right now in the smaller orgy room, and not that I don't enjoy the idea of being part of a larger world where lots of sex is happening.

Are you still looking for female characters?

For your consideration




Name: Sabine Dumond   
Gender: Female
Age: 21

Description: Tall for her size, Sabine is an average looking woman without the deep curves or large breasts.  She spent most of highschool being overlooked as a nerd in relation to the more attractive cheerleaders and gymnasts.  Her hair usually ranges from red to a mix of reddish brown and white.  She can usually be found with glasses, her hair up in pigtails.  Sabine isn't the type of girl who'll be found wearing Zara or Prada, but more L.L Bean and Eddie Bauer type clothing.  Her light green eyes and soft toned skin tend to contrast well with her taste in hair color. 
Sabine

Personality: Sabine is the type of girl you'd find tearing apart a computer, staring up at the stars, playing video games or dressing up for some sort of convention.  She's not someone normally found out at clubs, or frat parties, although she has been to her share of parties and had a good time.  Sabine loves to learn and loves to understand things.  While she may come across as rather reserved and introverted, Sabine has been known to get crazy in the right company.  She is a very loud outgoing person when given the right stimulus and doesn't take shit from anyone.  Spending a large portion of her life being the "tom boy" or the "nerd" has created a very thick skin and she will show her animosity to being pushed around very quickly. 

Sexuality:  While Sabine has never done anything more than kiss a female friend in highschool, she considers herself to be very open minded.  Generally she's had her fill of asshole guys over the years who really just wanted to "fuck the nerd" so she tends to resist advances from guys which has limited her sex life recently.

Skills & Talents: Computer Savy Sabine has spent a lot of time over the past years learning to understand computers, game consoles, tech of all kinds.  Mostly out of a need to fix it to keep from having to spend limited cash on repair or replacement.
Research Sabine has a great ability to critically think and work her way through problems.  She'll search until she finds information to form a theory then search to find an answer to her theory.
Perceptive Sabine has spent a lot of her life watching other people, being invisible to the people who regarded her as nothing more than "the nerd" so she's come to be very good at reading people and understanding their quirks, movements, tells.

Background:  Sabine grew up with her father and her aunt in Baton Rouge Louisiana after her mother died during childbirth.  Her father was a computer programmer for a local IT company and her aunt was a marketing specialist.  Sabine spent a lot of her child hood around her father's computers and in a generally manly environment, her aunt providing decent amount of female touch to the environment.  Most of Sabine's friends were boys growing up and through high school as being a "tom boy" tended to scare of away most of the girls.  A few girls found her a refreshing change from the norm and gravitated to her during high school.  Better than average grades, Sabine found her niche in technology and mathematics classes, but was still able to excel in more social sciences due to her love of learning. 

Earning a STEM scholarship to LSU because of her father's Alumnus status, Sabine and her friend Jessi moved into an apartment her freshmen year and they'd been living together the last two years.  During the year and the summer Sabine works at a local sports bar as a bartender.

On & Offs:
Sabine has a pretty open mind.  On & Offs match well with the writers.
