"Gotham City Noir" RPG Application
Screenname: Green Lantern
Gothamite you would like to portray: Special Agent Cameron Chase
Class of society: (Choose one) Law Enforcer
Resume: (Brief character biography) Special Agent Chase is an outcast among her peers in the FBI. Assigned to the Behavioral Analysis branch, she is known for pursuing cases dealing with supernatural or highly unusual circumstances. She has just accepted a transfer to the Gotham City field office to try and determine who's behind the Batman's mask.
Factoids of interest: (Special attributes - IE: Weapons, attire... anything needed to be known) Unlike her comic counterpart, the Chase in this universe is not powered, but is an excellent FBI agent, though a bit paranoid.
Known associates: (NPC's needed to be attached to your character)
Partner Sandra Barrett
Three integral reasons behind choosing the character: 1. The X-Files...
2. Now MB's character AIN'T my boss
3. Now I can pull rank on MB during an investigation.
Please provide a brief explaination behind your character's motivations (ex: What does he/she believe in? How does he/she connect with Gotham City? What grinds your character's gears?):
Gotham City is a city where the unexplained accounts for daily life. Lately it seems a new mentally deranged or somehow superhuman villain crawls out of the woodwork. But what Chase really desires is to find out who's behind the cowl.
File Headshot: (A picture if your character, if applicable)
Please provide a small sample post, in the format you plan to portray this identity, with three paragraphs at minimum:
Quantico, Virginia, Director Simon Bones' office
"Agent Chase, come in. Sit down."
As Special Agent Cameron Chase sat down across the desk of the FBI Director, she wondered why he had called her in.
I didn't screw up that bad, did I? The man had a knife to his hostage's throat... He would have killed her if I hadn't shot him.
Nervously, she twitched and the Director noticed.
"No need to be nervous, agent. You did good last week. Eased a lot of minds, that young lady would have been his twelfth victim. On the contrary I asked you here to request a favor."
"Yes sir?"
"I would like to ask you to transfer to Gotham City. A lot of new cases are popping up in that town, most of them involving serial killers or unexplained events. Stuff right up your alley. Will you do that for me?"
"Certainly, sir."
"Good, I'll have you on a plane in three days. Better go pack. And Agent?"
"Yes sir?"
"Keep reporting to me, I don't trust Steel."
"Yes, sir."
Three days later, Gotham City International Airport
"Special Agent Chase?"
"Who's asking?"
"My name is Special Agent Sandra Barrett, I'm your new partner. We can get your bags later, we got a call, downtown, near crime alley."
"Crime Alley?"
"Yeah, you'll get used to optimistic names like that here in Gotham."
Half an hour later
The two agents pulled up to an abandoned warehouse.
"So what are we going into?"
"Eighth case like this in two months. Appears to be a serial killer, and so far we have no real leads. The women have been unconnected, though the first victim was a homeless man. Aside from the alley we found him in, the rest have been seven seemingly unconnected locations too. Two of the women were in their house when he murdered them. The sick bastard likes to shower himself 'clean' after killing them it looks."
"What do you mean?"
"You'll see."
As they entered the building, Chase nearly gagged from the smell. Hanging in the center of the room was the naked body of a girl in her twenties. Her blond hair streaked pink from blood, her eyes lifeless and milky. Her chin held aloft by a long cord, leaving a wide gash in her throat, and a long slice down her abdomen. Beneath her was a large pool of her own blood, with a dry spot where the killer had apparently been standing.
Chase walked over and kneeled near the blood.
"You said there have been no leads in the case? Have we sent any of the blood in?"
"I think the police did for the first few, before they called us in."
"Lets get someone here for a test on the blood, that may provide something."
