Fortuna: Dance with Anarchy (OOC)

[Thaelasan]

I knew literally it couldn't be covered in smoke, but then again, with how the Flora were described, I could only imagine the slums of the Flora territories weren't the cleanest. The air units probably weren't attended to normally and with what drugs the Flora could be creating, who knows what sort of things would fill the air?

 

I can edit it accordingly but for me it really felt like that's what you were trying to convey about the different territories.

[hjy213]

Well I think you assumed quite a few things then. Yes, the Flora territory is less clean, but I meant that in terms of rubble. When I imagined the cleanliness of Flora territory, I was more imagining the less clean areas of New York. I'd rather you not assume these very negative things about certain territories, including whether or not air units are cleaned regularly. Especially something like a smoke-covered Flora territory. That's just gross, and frankly, as a person with asthma, not quite survivable. I feel like you've created this bad vs good view in terms of the Gears and Flora vs the Phi, and I'm fine with that, but please don't extend this into description of areas. That should be neutral.

[Thaelasan]

True. Perhaps it's just Nicholas' negative view of the Flora and Gears then. It's probably not that bad, it's just how he sees it - just like how a Flora would enter a Gears' territory and be like "ew this place is terrible."

 

I suppose I'm borrowing too much description from Luna, an RP city I made a while back. Apologies.

Age: 36

Gender: Male

Affiliation: Phi

Rank: Poppy (Flora)/Kataskope (Phi)

Date of Birth: February 21, 2091

Appearance: A tall, dark-skinned man with dreadlocks hanging over his shoulders. He stands at 6'3". He's heavily trained his muscles through rigorous exercise, preparing for some unknown event. His face is shaved. He has a scar across his cheek.

 

Personality: Jovial and charismatic, yet with something hiding behind his friendly, teasing demeanor. He has determined eyes, eyes of a man that knows what he's going to do.

History: Jade was a Leaf living in a small settlement in the Northern borders that touched the tip of the South of Fortuna. Life was simple, all about survival. You lived as a Leaf. You avoided getting involved in affairs with the Gangs and they left you alone for a bit of what you earned every week. That's how it was. No one could complain. It may not have been the best life but it was life.

But that was before The Red Night. Not much is known about the event but a Flora assault on Jade's settlement left a bloody mark on the Gear's territory. Bullets and lasers flew through the small village, killing innocents and non-innocents alike. The Gears even fired upon them, even though they had promised them protection.

In the midst of the chaos, Jade lost his family, and worst of all, he lost his younger sister, Faith. She had been his closest friend. He had watched as her body was mutilated by gunfire as she reached her hand for him to save her.

He became obsessed with revenge. Angry and young, he had left vandalism all over Flora territory and wished to see their leader, or whoever had instigated the assault, dead by his hands. They had caused this. They had caused his pain.

But that's before he found Robert, or rather, Robert found him and offered him a path to the vengeance he so desired.

To live among his enemy, to bring about their end from within. And he was promised one thing in return,

the life of the one who started the Red Night, whoever they were, and are.

Alright, the character looks good. It would be nice to add a bit of history on how Jade came to become a Poppy, but if you decide to explain that in rp, you can leave it as is. For now, I'll put Jade up. He'll be in both the Flora and Phi sections, but won't count towards the maximum 8 poppy characters.

[ValidEmotions]

Still no Leaves. I think I'll make Vipra's sister a PC... Get the sick woman into trouble, cause some drama.

[ValidEmotions]

Sorry for the double post but I felt this was kind of important and needed to be seen.

 

I'm making both Jesse and her fiancé as PC Leaves. The fiancé is going to be putting together a new gang named Habeas that's based on idealist, humanitarian beliefs. He wants to create a system built on honest trust and loyalty, not something bought with drugs or technology. He'll combine the specialities of Flora and Gear, creating advanced technology and advanced medicine. He wants to ensure that everyone is respected and treated with dignity.

 

I want to know if anyone wants to join that or if I should put in NPCs. He's going to look for someone to take the role of his second in command first. That or a talented medic or someone who is extremely tech savvy. He'd prefer if a medic or tech savvy person was his second but it's not necessary.

 

When I introduce him into the RP, he'd be on this search. So, the gang wouldn't be formed yet but intended.

 

Thoughts? Takers?

[halfsourpickle]

I'm willing to have Harcourt be second-in-command for the new gang!! He's a medic for the Gears.

Username: Belle

Full Name: Angela Maude Faye

Age: 34

Gender: Female

Affiliation: The Elite/The Gears

Rank: Big Sister

Date of Birth: January 25th, 2093

Appearance:

Standing at a tall height of 5'10", Angela has a svelte hourglass figured body. Her complexion is comparable to spun-gold, possessing radiant golden-complected skin. Her lips are full, carrying a dark scarlet tint to them. For her age, Angela appears remarkably preserved, endowed with refined, angelic facial features without the slightest wrinkle. If closely examined, a faded scar can be observed running along the length of her neck, though the mark is otherwise nearly invisible. Her eyes are a piercing pale blue and her hair is a rich shade of cocoa brown. She typically wears her hair in complex, elegant updos. Angela carries a refined air about her everywhere she goes. This refined elegance is also observable through her wardrobe, which consists of formal business-attire dresses.

 

Personality:

Raised by the Elite all of her life, Angela is quite innovative. With her innovative nature comes an innate curiosity for creation. She carries a commanding atmosphere about her, able to sway a crowd to her attention within moments. Along with her authoritative nature, she exhibits a cold demeanor to those below her authority. She loathes those who waste her time, and is quite uncaring and non understanding when it comes to the personal issues of other people. Angela highly favors logic and reason over emotion, and rejects the importance of the individual person, instead favoring the greater good of the society. Her reasoning skills give her a very open-minded way of thinking, and she is very negotiable when it comes to solutions. Though very open minded, Angela possesses a firm belief in the ideology that every single person has a distinct place and value to society, and should dedicate their lives to serve their specific value.

History:

Born to William Faye, a revered Elite general and Antoinette Faye, an ambassador for the Elite, Angela lived a luxurious existence on an estate in the Hamptons, New York. Raised in the heart of the Elite, Angela has been hardwired with Elitist ideals.

At the age of 13, Angela was introduced to the the war, seeing the world wide damage across the news and from ear through both of her parents, who fed her heavily Elitist-influenced versions of information of the global war. Though witnessing much of the world-wide carnage of the war through the news, the teenage Angela had remained uncaring and unsympathetic towards the un-elite nation and uncaring of the war in general, as her life had remained peaceful through the early beginnings of the war.

Angela's peaceful lifestyle was brought to an end at the age of 17 on March 27th, 2110 when New York City was attacked by multiple air strikes, bombs, and raiding soldiers. That day, her world as she knew it ended as both her mother and father were killed by an airstrike on the Elite New York City headquarters, leaving the 17 year old Angela to fend for herself during the attack.

After the attack, Angela took refuge with the remaining New York Elite officials that survived the attack. An official by the name of Denice Porter took Angela in, recognizing her by her family name. For the remaining 2 years of the war, Angela was educated on Elitist war strategy and intelligence collection by Denice, acting as his assistant of sorts until the war ended in 2112, when she was 19 years old.

The war had officially ended and the remaining survivors of the world swarmed into what was left of New York City, taking on the name Fortuna. However, the war had not ended in Angela's heart. She recognized the world for the savage place it had become, and vowed to return the world to its former glory, to give it order. Thus at the age of 21, Angela founded the faction of the Gears on March 11th, 2114, gathering what was left of the previous elitists and naming herself leader of the new found faction.

For 13 years, Angela has reigned as the leader of the Gears, a faction dedicated to the restoration of order to society, and the creation of a better future through technology.

Username: Narvix

Full Name: Jessie Leon Clemings

Age: 27 years

Gender: Female

Affiliation: Leaf - Flora territory

Rank: N/A

Date of Birth: March 21, 2100

Appearance: Looking much like her sister, Jessie is 5'3" and weighs about 130 pounds, retaining some of her pregnancy weight from two years ago. She has the same round face, green eyes, pointed nose, and freckles but her black hair is much longer. It falls in soft waves to the bottom of her shoulder blades and is sometimes put up into a loose ponytail or messy bun. Stretch marks cover her abdomen and breasts, which she feels slightly embarrassment about even now.

She prefers wearing comfortable clothes that fall a little loosely on her frame versus form-fitting material. A basic t-shirt, jeans, zip-up hoodie, and sneakers make her average outfit.

 

Personality: Jessie uses a much softer approach to life than her sister does. More interested in experiencing every moment that she is given, Jessie isn't too interested in technology. She more prefers trying to create organic things. Being a mother of a young child, she's become motherly, amplifying her natural desire to care for someone. She hides her stress very well, appearing unfazed by many things and virtually laid back. But she bottles most things, not wanting to burden anyone with her troubles.

History: Jessie and Vipra were part of a family of four, growing as close together as twins could be. As children, the two were constantly coming up with various adventures to entertain themselves. Eventually, Vipra took to electronics while Jessie found a love in art. When they were about twelve years old, their house was raided and the sisters became separated from their parents. Alone, the duo managed to survive, falling into the arms of a kind old woman until she passed three years later from old age. About that time, Vipra was absorbed into the Gears and Jessie developed an unknown illness, theorized to be caused by radiation. To protect her, Vipra hid Jessie away from the eye of the Gears, fearing what they might do to her. Jessie agreed to hide without fuss, taking up a residence in Flora territory.

When Vipra was twenty-two, she found their father alive and well. But she didn’t approach him and he was gone once more, traveling to some unknown place. By the time Vipra turned twenty-four, Jessie had become comfortable, living simply in Fortuna as a humble Leaf. She met a man named Cameron and the two became close, developing a romantic relationship over the next couple years. When Vicky was born, Cameron asked to be married. Since then, Jessie has privately been worrying about her and her daughter’s health.

Full Name: Cameron “Cam” David Devereux

Age: 30 years

Gender: Male

Affiliation: Leaf - Flora territory

Rank: N/A

Date of Birth: January 12th, 2097

Appearance: With hazel eyes set on an angular face, Cameron stands around 5’11” and weighs nearly 185 pounds due to developed musculature. He has short, dark brown hair that curls faintly and an olive skin tone. Muscle memory gives him great reflexes and a significant punch. He favors wearing button-up shirts and slacks, going for a semi-casual appearance, complete with lightweight boots.

 

Personality: Cameron likes to believe himself an idealistic humanitarian with a charismatic charm. However, he is a desperate man who is willing to do what it takes to see his goals through. He wants to keep people safe, and return to pre-war ideals. In public, he comes off as a righteous man with solid integrity. But, in private, his actions don’t always match the image he created. He’s more than willing to get his hands dirty to keep others’ clean. And there are a lot of dirty hands to shake these days.

History: Growing up, Cam and Jack made a united pair of trouble makers. Though, it was mostly Jack’s fault they got into trouble so much. When their sister was born, they were eight years old and thoroughly convinced that they could protect her from anything. During World War IV, there was an air raid on their town that resulted in their family being split apart, unable to find their mother.

Around the age of 17, the Gear and Flora were established but their family refused to join either gang, becoming Leaves. Thinking of a worse-case scenario, their father decided to teach them what he had learned in the military. Some time after that, there was a Flora attack on the Gears and the brothers lost both their father and their sister during the mayhem. Shortly after the loss, Cameron met Jessie. She soon became the object of his protective tendencies and more intimate actions. When his daughter was born and it was discovered she held the same illness as Jessie, he began to grow desperate in ensuring their wellbeing.

In a farfetched attempt to secure them a happy life, Cameron has decided to orchestrate a new gang.

Full Name: John “Jack” Devereux

Age: 30 years

Gender: Male

Affiliation: Leaf - Flora territory

Rank: N/a

Date of Birth: January 12, 2097

Appearance: Just like his brother, Jack has hazel eyes set on an angled face. He’s 5’11” and all of 195lbs of well developed muscle. Jack has slightly darker brown hair than his brother but the same olive skin tone. His reflexes are fast from muscle memory and from his own training at the hands of their father which ensures a strong hit from either his hands or his feet. He tends to dress in simple t shirts and jeans with black shoes or combat boots.

Personality: Jack is a charming and generally a caring man. When his sister was alive, he was fiercely protective of her just as he is protective of his twin brother, and in turn to his fiance. He liked to think he had a confidant in Jessie but he could not tell her everything that would sometimes trouble his conscious. Jack is a curious blend of extroverted and introverted tendencies, he’s happy to make new friends and laugh but he can also be reclusive and quiet. He’s not quite the idealist as his brother, but he does believe in the inherent good of all, so he often times shows mercy when he should, but he can be quite ruthless when needed.

History: Growing up, Cam and Jack made a united pair of trouble makers. Though, it was mostly Jack’s fault they got into trouble so much. However, while he has admitted that it was usually his idea, he would point at Cam for being the reason they were caught. When their sister was born, they were eight years old and thoroughly convinced that they could protect her from anything. During World War IV, there was an air raid on their town that resulted in their family being split apart, unable to find their mother.

Around the age of 17, the Gear and Flora were established but their family refused to join either gang, becoming Leaves. Thinking of a worse-case scenario, their father decided to teach them what he had learned in the military. Some time after that, there was a Flora attack on the Gears and the brothers lost both their father and their sister during the mayhem. This attack embittered Jack and made him want blood for having lost his family. When Cam found love, he was happy for his brother, but he was also mildly jealous.

Username: Epyon

Full Name: Dominic “Ding” Rodriguez

Age: 31

Gender: Male

Affiliation: Elites-The Gears

Rank: Leader of the Nanos

Date of Birth: December 5th, 2095

Appearance: Dominic stands at 5’9” while weighing 185 lbs. His complexion is the color of dark milk chocolate and he has sometimes grows a moustache that he keeps meticulously groomed. His hair is a sleek jet black color that shines quite easily after washing, he usually keeps his hair combed back though often he’ll let the faint curls do what they will. His body is lean but muscled from training hard to remain in top shape to carry out his duties. His facial structure is somewhat angled with almond shaped brown eyes and a squared jaw that looks quite handsome when he’s relaxed. He’s at home when he wears casual clothes or in well-tailored suits though he prefers the former, but when he cleans up he really cleans up. He does have a scar along his back that resulted from a brawl with an intimidator who challenged him.

Personality: Dominic is calm, collected, and can be aggressive depending on what is before him with an ingrained code of honor that seems out of place for his profession. He tends to keep an open mind but because of his profession, a degree of cynicism has tempered his open mind. He is loyal to those he calls friends but he does not like to kiss ass to further his position. He respects those who offer him respect though this way of thinking has landed him into trouble with a couple of intimidators and with the leadership. Being raised by the Elitist has given him the drive to be innovative and to find different solutions to the same problem. While he has a curiosity for creation, he only focuses on things that he can readily upgrade or improve. Dominic can be the greatest ally one could have or the most ruthless enemy, with him, it all depends on the motivations and character of the person before him.

History: As the son of the Minister of Foreign Relations, which was really just a fancy name for the spy ring in the old Elite government, Dominic was exposed to spycraft and politics at a young age. Since his childhood, he was given some of the best education and training the Elites had to offer for someone in his station. He was taught some of the best spycraft and statecraft to ensure that the Elites would remain supreme. By age thirteen, he was a excelling in his studies and in his training to become a spy as well as supplemental war tutoring to become a real asset to the war effort. During the fall of the Elites, his father and mother tried to flee to a safe house when they were caught in a crossfire between invading forces and defending Elites. With his father’s dying breath, Dominic was hidden beneath the dead bodies of his parents as enemy forces dropped their bombs around him as they attacked the Elite Philadelphia. When it was safe, he employed all of his training to arrive at the safe house undetected. He gathered the documents he would need to establish his identity to those who didn’t know him or his family name. Eventually, he made his way to Elite headquarters in New York was around when the Gears were created with Angela Faye at their head. He then took his rightful place as spymaster and worked to be one of the best spies they had.

I have another sheet to finish I cry but here is terrible child

 

Username: TehUltimateMage

Full Name: Jocelyn (Yu Xing) Liu

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Affiliation: Flora

Rank: Fogger

Date of Birth: August 15, 2102

Appearance: Lanky and laid back unlike most other intimidators, Jocelyn carries a lopsided grin and lacks any sense of proper posture. He slinks around, slightly hunched, his long limbs swinging wherever they want to swing, and when he sits, he melts into the chair as if he were liquid. His untidy black hair is long enough to cover the back of his neck and he sports a thin and patchy beard. Around his neck is one of the many patterned bandannas he owns and a pair of goggles hidden among the folds, necessary items for his job when paired with the many pouches and canisters strapped onto his belt. He wears a simple black shirt and grey pants with many pockets, boots and gloves that cover the entire hand. On jobs he wears a grey cloak with the back tattered into strips where each strip is knotted at the end. He often has something sticking out of his mouth, be it an unlit cigarette, a toothpick, or a rare lollipop.

 

Personality: Mischevious, dreamy, and somewhat lazy, Jocelyn initially seems like a poor choice for his position. He has no regard for personal space nor personal property, and unless told not to he will pick up and fondle anything that interests him in any given room. He is direct in his questions and comments even if he doesn't seem to be paying attention. He gets along with everyone, in a funny kind of way, but he tends to only form the shallowest bonds so he can turn and kill on a dime. Jocelyn is much more dangerous than the pot-numbed stoner he pretends to be. His slouch suddenly seems more animalistic when he is on the job, knife in hand, and his long periods of "sleeping in" are really dedicated to engineering his signature weapon: pressurized cans of various gasses and aerosols.

 

History: When Jocelyn was born, it seemed like a relatively peaceful time thanks to the Locu, to which both his parents swore allegiance. However, tensions quickly escalated. Despite the official beginning of World War IV when he was only four years of age, it took the effects of war a few more years to reach him and his family. His mother died defending the faction, but he and his father survived long enough to see the end and were eventually herded into Fortuna to continue to fend for themselves.

 

He never really did like the Gears, for they were the spiritual successor of the Elites who in his eyes were the cause of the war. Many others felt the same way, and when his father finally died of illness Jocelyn suddenly found himself a free man -- a teenager who could do whatever he wanted. He was suddenly without ties in a world of anarchy, and he figured he preferred it that way. No one to mourn, and no one to mourn him. He joined the Flora at age 17, and has since established himself as someone who gets things done in an efficient, orderly manner, no questions asked. Over almost a decade he has become more lax and more scruffy (and cut down the narcotics). In addition, throughout the years he has been working on his pet project -- using aerosols to propagate drugs like sedatives through the air -- all while climbing the ranks and getting into territory scuffles with the Gears.

Crush: Bec Laflamme - The only Gear intimidator who was quick and savvy enough to give him a proper fight and break both his arms the first time they met. He hasn't felt like this... ever. He thinks he is in love.

 

Other: Jocelyn interprets the title Fogger in a literal manner, as most of his tactics involve large amounts of smoke to obscure himself and strike fear into those who owe money to the Flora, or a little bit of poison gas to be extra coercive. The smoke renders the Gear's laser weapons nearly useless, though it is already difficult to hit a shifting shape through a cloud of fog with a regular bullet.

 

 

[ValidEmotions]

Well, I've posted for three out of five characters. I'm delaying Jason's post until GGG replies with Ren and I couldn't figure out what to do for Jessie's intro at the moment so she's going to wait a little bit.

 

Until Ep's characters are approved, I'm just kind of viewing them as NPCs. I hope that was okay. (I didn't take control of them, just mentioned them in Cam's post.)

[hjy213]

All characters accepted

[Thaelasan]

Uh, Narvix, there is no longer a Buffalo location in the setting. Just South Fortuna, West, and North as far as I know. :I

 

Also, as far as I knew, unless you were a high ranking member (Robert, Nick, or Rena, or one or two tiers below) you don't know where the Headquarters for the Phi are.

 

Not even Jade knows, unless hjy confirms otherwise.

Edited October 6, 2016 by Thaelasan

[ValidEmotions]

Is it? I went off hj's use of the name in her post with Robert.

 

EDIT: I would think that other non-leadership members of Phi would need to know the HQ location? It is a hub of activity after all.

 

EDIT2: I'm going based on this

Robert

Walking through the somewhat clean streets of an ambiguously-claimed Buffalo, Robert smiled as he saw a group of young children play by kicking a ball among themselves. Having led the Phi for seven years now, Robert was well acquainted with the people living in Buffalo, especially those he ended up helping. Within the small group, Robert could point out four of the five being from families he assisted. The children easily recognized him, a young boy being the first as he ran over.

 

Vipra's information is not confirmed anyways. It's based on suspicions and rumors. Stein was believed to be a Phi member of decent position, perhaps a Soph.

Edited October 6, 2016 by Narvix

[halfsourpickle]

The Phi do not have any territory, as their objective is to have an information network throughout Fortuna and control the area through knowledge. They disguise themselves as Leaves, and usually live as such. In gang wars, their Pairnos are especially important to leave no trace of their fallen members. Despite the assertion they have no headquarters, they are centered in the west, near Buffalo.

 

also hjy didn't have an issue with vipra's job details when narvix mentioned it. so. narvix's post is valid.

Full Name: Rebecca "Bec" Laflamme

Age: 20

Gender: Female

Affiliation: Gear

Rank: Drone

Date of Birth: December 3rd, 2107

Appearance: Perhaps not very pretty in the traditional sense, Rebecca has an angular face with deep set eyes and a prominent nose. Her thin, pursed lips and intimidating blue stare show no warmth, only business. Her auburn hair falls in loose curls but is usually done up in a tight bun. She has wide shoulders and a fighter's build from years of intensive training (and a little bit of unnatural augmentation). She binds her breast. She is flexible with what she wears as long as it is both neat and comfortable and also fit for the job. She likes tighter sweaters and turtlenecks with the sleeves removed to remind people that she is the muscle by showing her muscle.

 

Personality: Silent, reserved, and almost robotic, Rebecca can get by with using fewer than a hundred words per day. She seems focused on her assigned orders so blindly that it appears that she is not putting in any thought into anything at all. She believes that overthinking things would only lead to paralysis and that sometimes, it was better to have someone else make decisions for you as you run on autopilot. Off-duty, Bec still struggles to maintain a facade that she is unapproachable and cares for no one -- but not everyone gets fooled that easily. She is more lax, but no less rule-abiding. She is a hard worker and unexpectedly caring but refuses to acknowledge it.

 

The one person she softens completely to is her brother, the only person in the world who matters to her.

 

History:

 

She was lucky to be alive by the end of the war. She was lucky to have both her parents witness the treaty, and the formation of a new city ruled by fortune alone. She was told she didn't cry much. When the war ended, she was only four, and from then on they lived an honest existence as Leaves in northern Fortuna. Rebecca remembered the small shop they ran, where they bartered antiques and little trinkets that were too insignificant to be handed over to the Gears. The times spent with her mother and her much younger brother.

 

Rebecca then had her entire life erased because of a territory dispute four or so years ago. Collateral damage had destroyed her home, the shop, and her parents; it left her and her brother bruised and battered but miraculously alive. Suddenly discovering that happiness was an illusion, Rebecca managed to survive with the scraps from the rubble, but it was clear that with her brother's ailing health that they couldn't last much longer like this. They needed ID to collect rations. But getting a new one took time and money, both of which were running out.

 

The man she went to for help -- she got his name from another Leaf, or were they a leaf? -- might as well have been the devil: in exchange for a body part, he would give her the cold cash she desperately needed as well as medicine. She was told to stay out of shady circles, and yet... She agreed to part with her left breast, and managed to secure an apartment.

 

The only sure way to make a living here, it seemed, was to join the Gears. It assured a certain standard of living. And so, to support her brother, she did, treating it like a dirty but necessary day job. That kind of obedient attitude, to her surprise, allowed her to rise in rank.
