Oh, we need to take doctor brown off the reserved list. For the time being, V160 isn't playing him, so he'll be an attached npc.

THE "LIGHTS? CAMERA? ACTION! MOTION PICTURE RPG"
PLAYABLE CHARACTER APPLICATION FORM
​

Hype! User Name: spideyssuperfan

Desired character: John Anderton

Is your character a 'good-guy' or a 'bad-guy?': Good-guy

Movie(s) that that character has appeared in: "Minority Report"

Release date(s) of film(s): 2002

Which of the following, if any, describes your character?

Average-Joe: Your character is a normal person who has access to extraordinary items.

Action star: Your character is a whip-wielding, car-chasing, building-destroying action hero, complete with his trusty pistol and leather fedora.

Genre of film that your character stars in: Action / Adventure / Sci-Fi / Fantasy

Brief history of the character in their films up to the start of the RPG: John Anderton is head of the 2054 Pre-crime Unit created to stop acts of violence before they happen. Anderton utilizes collective consciousness as viewed by a trio of psychics witnessing liquid 'work-in-progress murder.' The pre-cogs are named after three great mystery writers -- Arthur (Conan Doyle), Dash (Hammett) and Agatha (Christie) -- and are the 'little people behind the curtain' who keep the entire pre-crime paradigm on line.
During a pre-cog work day they all lie in a pool in a secure space called The Temple -- tuned to a 'murders-to-be channel' that links to a universal translator. The switchboard can convert pre-cog experiences into images. Anderton then coordinates his elite pre-crime unit to instantly respond to any pending situation, by using and examining the visions of the pre-cogs.

What font face and color do you plan on using for your character's speech: Century gothic 2 bold, dark green.

Please write, in character, a two-paragraph (No more, no less) sample post. Please ensure that your post is in character, contains dialogue, and conforms to standard guidelines of the English language:

I sit in my office at Pre-Crime headquarters. I'm typing on my light-based keyboard and watching as my dull report is projected onto the wall. Jad walks into my office and taps his watch.

"Come on, chief, we gotta go."

I glance up at him from my keyboard.

"Well, I don't hear a red ba-" The red ball alarm rings out before I finish my sentence. I tap a button and my keyboard is turned off. I get up and run out from behind my desk towards the temple, grabbing my jacket on the way.

I enter the room and ask Jad if we're ready to go.

He spins around in his chair and watches as the balls of wood are carved.

"Case 1008 confirmed and booked. Digital witnesses are ready to go. The red ball is coming out now."

I walk over to the view screen and tap a couple of buttons. The digital witness flash to life on the screen.

"Good morning, lady and gentleman. I request permission to begin my investigation of case 1008."

They both nod.

"Ready when you are detective." Says the male.

"Alright, then." I say, sliding on the gloves that interface with the view screen.

"Let's go to work."

Are there any attached NPC's that you will require for your character? Jad, Agatha, Levar Burgess, and Danny Whitwer

How many times per day do you plan on posting in character?: Enough, hopefully.

What, if anything, can you bring to this RPG? Song lyrics.

Do you know how to post pictures on the boards? Nope....

Once we get that going, feel free to have at it.

Alright, that works for me.

That's the IC thread.

I would ask everyone to hold off posting anything until Kaboom gives the okay.

Ap-p-p-p-proved.

 

[Matt Murdock]

Byrd, if you want to you could just take venkman as your third character.

 

[Kaboom]

ok second post is up. As you can tell the universes how now merged as though they have always been this way. Accordingly, nobody should think IC that things have changed unless your character is specifically attuned to cosmic ethereal energies which might otherwise reveal that.

allow the third post to be SSF and then everyone's good to go.

 

[Spider-Man9X17]

If we're going a third character route, I'd like to see if I could get permission to play...drumroll please...
