One Universe: Independents Edition Season I OOC Thread

[Carnage27]

My problem? I JUST DON'T GIVE A ****. THEY CANCEL MY SHOW, AND **** GOES CRAAAZY.

Nah, but seriously I've just been busy with an unsuccessful job/apartment hunt. I was actually going to have a post up today since my gf is visiting for about 2 weeks and it's likely I won't get any posting done then.

Sorry about the job hunting. I'm in the same boat right now.

If either of you were accountants or in finance, and lived in California, I could probably hook you up with jobs. or at least interviews.

 

[Byrd Man]

What a coincidence, they're none of the above.

 

[wiegeabo]

Suck to be them

Yes. Usually it takes a while to "finish" with a character, but once you're done telling that character's story, you may move on to another.

You know what's awesome? Losing a really long post when your computer decides to restart itself.

 

[Rain Dog]

But that...but that's the opposite of awesome...

Screen Name: Lord

Character you'd like to portray: Angel

Superhuman powers, traits, other attributes of interest: He's a vampire with a soul

Originally appearing from (which comic, and company?): He reverted to dark horse and is based on the character from the Angel tv series

Fictional history of the character:
Born Liam in 1727 in Galway, Ireland, he was sired by Vampire Darla and became one himself in 1753 and changing his name to Angelus and was dubbed The Scourge of Europe, earning notoriety for being one of the most sadistic and brutal demons in history, and the most evil vampire ever recorded. He was also known as The Demon with the Face of an Angel or The One with the Angelic Face because of his physical beauty. However, in 1898, Angelus was cursed by the members of Clan Kalderash as vengeance for killing a member of their clan. They returned his soul, forcing him to live eternally in guilt over the countless crimes he had committed.
In the late 20th century, Angel, as he began calling himself, became an ally and lover of the current Slayer, Buffy Summers. After the two were forced to realize their limitations as a couple, Angel left Buffy and moved to Los Angeles, where he became a Champion of the Powers that Be and dedicated himself to helping people in need in the hope of achieving atonement. Angel's actions were agains the interests of the demonic company Wolfram & Hart that sent the entire city of Los Angeles to a different dimension ruled by Demons.

Hero, Villain, or Walking the line?: Hero

List a few reasons why you chose this character: I wanted to use buffy but i think i can work with angel better.

Write two complete sentences explaining what you can bring to this RPG:
Vampires and hell demons, and also great characters and storylines.
How many days a week you intend on posting in the RPG:
in least twice a week
Please provide a small sample post as your character, at least three paragraphs and one line of dialogue in length:
It was big, like a demon Kar shal usually is, two horns on the skull, skin silvery scales covering its face and a spiked tail, I would say this is one of my best days, but I would be lying, I've fought bigger, but not in a city in these conditions.
-Hey, are you going to make me wait all day? - I say with the purpose of enfuriating him, it works and I hear a roar, followed by him running towards me.
I give him a big kick in the middle of the belly not leting him rest as i proceed to punsh his face.
-hurrrmmh - Its voice wouldn't please some people, I pull my axe and try to attack him in what I think is his weakest weakest area, the neck, in vain, because I just got the ax to be destroyed, the neck? Not so much.
Hurme HRA-hahaha! - The demon laughs in my face, I then exert more pressure in the ax, breaking it, and then i use what remains of the wooden stick that was part of the ax to stick it through his eyes, with a disgusting but also productive result.
-Note to self, pierce the eyes, not the neck, it's usually more effective.
-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghh! - The demon survived? Aparently it wasn't as effective as i expected
-Ok, forget that but do you know what always works? - The demon becomes confused
-A fire-breathing dragon. - And then he turns around and sees my faithful dragon, which does not take long to turn him into ashes.

-You took a lot of time, but it's allways good to see you.

Do you know how to post pictures on the Hype boards?:

What about now?

Okay. I'm going to have to reject your application as it stands now.

I'm going to need you to proof read it and have all the sections be written in proper English.

Also, I'd recommend that you look through the in character thread and check out how everyone sets up their posts. You're sample is unintelligible as it stands. I don't really know what's going on or who's talking.

Make those adjustments to the application, and I'll take another look at it.

I made the adjustement, go see it and tell me what you think

Okay, after conferring with the other GMs, we've decided to approve you.

However, you need to read the RPG 101 rules that wieg and twylight have worked on so you really understand how to play these games. Also, as of now, you are confined to one character until you show us that you are capable of writing a good story. You're writing is a bit choppy an unfocused as of now, and we'd like to see that improve a little as you go.

Also, I think you may want to reevaluate the direction you seem to be interested in taking. As of now, the vast majority of the world doesn't know about any superhuman/alien/mystical/supernatural things that may be happening in the world. So having LA disappear wouldn't work in the current universe.

Where's that?
Very well, i'll try to be more careful with the direction i take, because my english is not perfect as you probably figured out already i have to take more time with the spell check

We have it linked on the first post of this thread. But you may want to wait, because I know wiegeabo is working on fixing some of it.

And that's completely fine. take your time on posts. The game doesn't get a lot of traffic, so you really don't have to worry about losing your character or anything. So take your time on posts, and get them to be as good as you can get them.

Other than that, welcome aboard!

So is English not your first language?
