I'd like to use Ryu from the Street Fighter Series. Here is my Ap.
Screen name: Superman1314
Name of character you wish to play: Ryu
Name of the game/game series your character belongs in: Street Fighter Series.
How this character fits into the setting, and what part he/she could play in such an RPG, involving powers, motives, etc: A very calm, collected and focused fighter, Ryu could very well be the trump card in a fight. His mastery of his body, mind and soul give him the ability to manipulate the chi in his very core, unleashing various forms of energy attacks as well as the ability to propel his body with force to execute various arial moves.
Why you have chosen this character: I have been a fan of Ryu since I first played Street Fighter II when I was a kid. I love his persona. If you have seen any of his incarnations in various games or in Anime Movies such as Street Fighter II:The Animated Movie or in the series Street Fighter II:V you get my point.
Would this character bring anything with him to the current setting?: Ryu travel's with the clothes on his back and a bag of very few personal effects.
What will your character motives be?: Ryu travels the world in seek of perfecting his mind, soul and body..his very being. Never one to turn down a challenge to test his skill, he will not back down from a fight or turn away from someone in danger.
Sample:
Thunder cracks overhead as the moon's light begins to fade as cloud cover rolls in. Ryu looks up, the smell of the air turning damp. "It's going to rain." No sooner did he get the words out of his mouth, the skies opened up, releasing a downpour that soaks Ryu's Gi in a matter of moments. Ryu closes his eyes and lets the rain fall on his face. It had been in the triple digits the past few days, so the cooling rain was refreshing. Picking up his duffle bag, so as not to let it get muddy, Ryu continued down the dirt road he had been walking on. The road was ajasent to a small mining town which seemed to have been abandoned for quite some time.
Ryu walked past what looked to be the enterance to the settlement and noticed caution tape spread across various doors and fences. The main strip which looked like it was supposed to provide a preverbial warning as to not enter through the main gate, was cut and laying on the ground from post to post. The sound of metal crashing and running footsteps caught his ear. He looked in the direction of the noise but the rain was falling so hard, and the flash of lightning so bright he could hardly see anything more than silouetes. "Hello?" Ryu called out. He waited...another crash of thunder..then a small cry 'Help..Please'. Ryu started for the direction of the plea. Suddenly the loud sound of blades chopping through the air and the bright light of a spotlight shined down on the lone traveler. Ryu brought his arm up to shield his eyes from the direct light. "What the hell is going on?" He thought to himself.
Various armored men slid down ropes on either side of Ryu, pointing heir automatic rifles at him. Not sure what was going on, Ryu did not want to act in haste. "This is a restricted area." a muffled voice came from the chopper hoverig above him. His red headband blew in the wind, as he glared at the chopper. The men on both sides of him cocked their weapons, but before they could turn their safeties off, Ryu sprung to action. He tossed his duffle at the man to his left while sending a pivoting round hous kick to the man on his right, knocking him clear back into the mud, unconcious. The man on his left, still holding onto Ryu's duffle in shock, recieved a fist to the face, cracking the faceshield. Ryu took his Duffle back, and in return, sent an elbow into the mands kevlar vest, knocking the breathe clean out of the stunned soldier who slumped over, face first into the mud.
Ryu turned his attention to the chopper which had not moved from it's position. Ryu heard the sound of various firearms cocking, and he could see a dozen laser sights floating around from his head to his chest.
"Enough" a voice came from the chopper. A shadowy figure jumped from the chopper and landed on the muddy ground with a loud thud. The man stood up, lifting his head and straightening the black glasses sitting on his face. "Here it is raining, pitch black out, and this guy has sunglasses on..." Ryu found it odd. The man walked forward, dressed in black. He ran his hair through his short blonde hair, a small grin on his face. "You assaulted two of my men" the man said as his slick black boots sloshed through the mud twords Ryu. "I had done nothing wrong, yet they were about to fire." The blonde haired man chuckled. "Yes, they do get trigger happy at times. But you can't blame them, with all they have seen." Ryu watched the man as he walked closer. Ryu moved his left foot back, and his right foot forward, in his ready position. "What do you want? Who are you?" Ryu asked, not impressed nor frightened by any of this. The man reached up for his glasses and pulled them off his face, slowly revealing his eyes which flashed red for a split second. "Wesker. And you are trespassing."
Lightning flashed, and thunder rolled across the sky as Wesker charged Ryu.
Ryu brought his left arm in, placing his weight on his back leg before launching himself into the air as Wesker aproached..."Shoryuken!"
