Well here goes nothing! This is my first RP after a couple of months and I have decided it's worth a try to at least post. I won't be making a player character, and will be serving as the OP, GM, or something along those lines.
Let's just hope this goes swimmingly. ***** Several humans wake up in a white, blinding bright, tiny room that is just big enough to fit the round table and the chairs they are sitting in. The ceiling is covered with rows of fluorescent lights and on each sides of the room shows a blank television screen.
Every one of these humans has a folder containing few pieces of papers as well as a strange metal pen in front of them. They are locked with metal belts tightly locking them to the seats, so they can't get out. One would hope this wouldn't take long.
*****
RULES FOR THE RP
1. Don't be a jerk. Please be respectful to your fellow RPers. 2. Don't godmod, metagame, or powerplay. 3. Don't make perfect characters. They are boring, and predictable. 4. I don't care about romance. 5. Don't argue in OOC. If you have a problem with another person, take it to the party, PMs, or somewhere else that isn't on the thread. 6. If you are banned, you are out. 7. You can only make one character. If you die, you cannot make a new character, and cannot come back unless in special circumstances within the RP. 8. You are allowed to fight and even kill each other in RP, however, you won't decide the outcome. 9. Rules are subject to change any time. 10. If you are going to join, I'd rather you be relatively active. A post a day would be nice, at least.
*****
The folder contains a few papers.
FIRST PAGE
If you are reading this, that means you are part of the very first show in our planet that contains humans.
You are part of a competition to see who is the strongest in your group. These tests we will put you through will attempt prove your worth, strength, and will power. We will not tell you what these tests are or what they include, but you will finish them through every week. If no one dies or fails them at the end of the week, someone will be voted off. This is to ensure that the game moves at a regular pace.
You will be put in an enclosed area, similar but not the same as some of the places in the planet you live in. This will include a huge forest, a big and rather deep lake lake, and some animals you probably won't recognize. Most of you will be living in a shack, that may or may not have what you all need. It just depends if you are resourceful enough.
You probably not might survive at the end of this show, and we will not apologize in advance before your death. However, if you do survive, you will gain a 4 floor house with everything you need to sustain and entertain yourself: cable, internet, no electricity and water bills, food for the rest of your life, for no cost, as well as the title as the champion of humans.
SECOND PAGE RULES
There are few rules you have to follow, though the rest is up to you.
1. Attend the competition and tests we hold. Otherwise you will face certain consequences. 2. Do not escape the enclosed area. Otherwise you will be killed.
There really isn't much after that. *****
I will be waiting for at least 5 characters until people are allowed to RP in the starting room. People will be allowed to submit character sheets until the beginning of the first test, which will start somewhere tomorrow.
Before the first test, several minor events will occur to place you in the arena, around the shack. This will give you some time to get to know each other before then as well as give some time for people to submit their applications before it's too late.
***** THIRD PAGE
(most of these might seem pretty unnecessary, but will have some relevance later on in the rp) Name: Age: Gender: Appearance: Tell us about your family and friends: (biography) What are you like?: (personality) Do you miss home?: What would you do to get back?: What do you think about this show?: What is your favorite color?: |

Wow, I made a total character.
Name: Lupis Cassarrus Age: 25 Gender: M
Appearance: I am an younger man that is fit and strong. I have wide and strong shoulders which assist the strength also found in my arms. I'm not any muscle-head, though. I'm strong, but I also value speed, agility, and my endurance which can get me out of risky situations! I stand at 5'11 and weigh about 167 pounds in total. I have short, trimmed brown hair that is nice and thick, dark brown eyes, an olive skin tint, a scraggly but very short black beard, a structured face which includes a pointed chin and high cheekbones. Marvelous, aren't I?!
Tell us about your family and friends: As for my family, they can all burn in Hell! I never knew my father and my mother was even worse. I'm not going to win this for them, that's for sure. Oh, you want to know about my friends too? Well, I have none! Making friends is easy and keeping them is even easier, but in the end, they're all just there to help me get what I want, and in this case, the other contestants will be there to help me win! I can put on a show to win their trust, and I sure-as-Hell will!
What are you like?: What am I like? I'm mostly what I like to call a "social chameleon." That means that I can fit in mostly wherever I want as long as I can put up a good-enough act, which is pretty much always. If you couldn't comprehend it already, I'm selfish and I only see my acquaintances as tools to use at my disposal, but I've also heard that people tell me I'm a bit overconfident and ignorant, but they don't know anything, right?! I'm good at putting on a show as I told you before, and I can keep the act going for practically ages which will no doubt allow me to win this competition of wits! (He's a total egotist, for the most-part.)
Do you miss home?: Nope! But I sure will miss it once I'll be living like a king! Victory, make way for Lupis!
What would you do to get back?: To get back? Well I'd trick all my contestants and murder them, that's for sure!
What do you think about this show?: I think it's going to be a jolly-good time, tricking, murdering, pillaging and everything between!
What is your favorite color?: Ocean-blue, the color that my new house is going to be once I win this competition! |

Name: Reece Conners Age: 19 Gender: Male, what's it look like to you?
Appearance: I'm about five-foot-nine, with blond hair that I try to keep neat, and eyes that are almost emerald green, but not quite. I wouldn't say I'm muscular, but somewhere between skinny and normal. As for my skin, I guess I'm pretty tan. As for clothes, I usually just wear jeans and a t-shirt, with a jacket over it if it's cold. You guys do have human-sized clothes, right?
Tell us about your family and friends: I guess my family is pretty average. A mom, a dad, and one older sister. All three have pretty average jobs, so I guess that's not really that interesting. As for friends, I usually hang out with a couple of guys around that are fun to game with, but probably not the most dependable in any crisis.
What are you like?: I guess I'm a nice enough guy usually. I mean, I have trouble lying, so it's kind of hard for me to be dishonest with anybody. I guess I have some sense of humor, although it's not humor that many people would laugh about besides me. I'm not really much of a fighter, so I guess that's why I usually avoid dark and/or dangerous areas. I have a liiiiiittle bit of a fear of spiders. Do you guys have spiders on your planet? Do you miss home?: I guess. I suppose I'll miss it more when I'm fighting for my life for your amusement.
What would you do to get back?: You guys accept bribes? What do you think about this show?: I think you're an alien race of nutjobs. What is your favorite color?: Lime green. It's just a cool color, okay? |

Name: Brian Viklan Age: 18 Gender: Male Appearance: About 6'0" even. Short, jet black hair, that's spiked on the top. Stunning blue eyes, and olive colored skin. Fairly muscular build, with a scar running across his chest. Bio: Brian was born and raised in Florida, born to parents of Greek origin. He was fairly popular among others, so he made friends pretty easily. When he was 15, his parents died in a freak car accident. After that he became cold and bitter, not talking to many people, except a select few, which included his best friend David, and his little sister Laura. What are you like? Mean, cold and bitter at most times, but friendly at select points. Slightly talkative, and deceptive. Do you miss home? No, the only thing I miss from there is my little sister. What would you do to get back? To get back to her, I would kill. What do you think about this show? It's sick and twisted, but it's better than anything I would be doing at home What is your favorite color? Red |

Name: Seth Green
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Appearance: Seth stands at a tall 6'0. He weighs roughly 160 pounds, give or take a couple. He has a really lanky look to him, for the most part. His eyes are a dark, chocolate brown while his hair is a similar color. His hair is cut rather short, with long bangs that flow down to cover one eye. His skin is an average Caucasian tone, not particularly tan or pale. He has an average look about him, not really attractive, but not necessarily ugly.
Tell us about your family and friends: (biography) Seth was born a single child, of a fighting couple. He was more or less considered an expensive accident, and only drove a wedge deeper in the relationship. Arguing was constant until age 9, when his mother and father finally split up. He was faced with a really crappy choice, either go with his poor as heck father, with no security into a horrid neighborhood, or his mother, who was a bit crazy but could provide something..
However, the courts chose for this young fellow, sending him with his mother. Seth wasn't sure if he really liked the decision, as they ended up moving far away, leaving what few friends he had behind. He ended up in Seattle, far away from where he was used to calling home. Thanks to the moving, and stress from his mother, he really couldn't handle normal kid situations like everyone else. This led to a lot of loneliness and lack of security, breeding social issues like stuttering.
By the time he reached highschool, he was a hardcore loner. Rarely did he choose to spend time with people, simply because he liked to be alone. That being said, his speech skills were so underdeveloped compared to others, hanging out with others was a chore all in it's own. So he stuck to studies, acing all the tests, and always knowing the answers. Books were his companion, and that's how it would be.
At eighteen, he graduated highschool as Valedictorian, having access to almost all colleges with full academic scholarships. Enjoying the idea of solitude and studies, he became a scientist studying time. But instead of the solitude he so desperately craved, he got a couple of friends in the field, instead. They worked together to form mind blowing theories involving time, probably revolutionary if they have had more time together. Sadly, this was cut short by a certain alien group. . .
What are you like?: (personality) I honestly don't know how to describe myself. Loser, dork, geek. All of those come to mind pretty quickly, and I'm just accepting of it, I guess. Although I'm working on giant stuff back home, it's just not really changing my self-esteem of rock bottom to anything better. It's not like I'm a depressed maniac, I just don't think highly of myself, that's all.
*Quiet mumbling* Regarding the game, I guess I really just want to win. Sure it's not particularly fair for people who deserve it more, but that really sucks. I'll do anything to win, as I've got nothing to lose. So anyone who dares to think they'll beat me has another thing coming. My time alone taught me one thing, and that's how to act like a fishy. I can be a fish, and I can also be the fisherman. So I'll use them and win. Now I know I sound cocky, but they're all expecting some weird loser, and they'll see another thing coming. Goodluck, everyone else.
*Chuckling.*
Do you miss home?: Not particularly.
What would you do to get back?: Nothing, free stuff is pretty cool as long as I get to make the occasional phone call and discuss theories.
What do you think about this show?: I'll win. Enough said.
What is your favorite color?: Purple. |

Name: Kale Harrison
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Appearance: Kale is a tall, lanky man, not quite thin and not quite bulky or fat, he lies in a grey area. best described as a slender build. He towers over most others, making him easily distinguishable in a crowd, and has an awkward walk. His appearance is also odd on account of his unkempt black hair, which, due to Kale's scatterbrained approach to grooming, has varying lengths of short and shoulder-length at times, sometimes getting into his eyes. He has heterochromia as well, one eye being a dark brown and the other being a very light, faded blue. He's Caucasian, rather pale, with average eyebrows. He's not particularly fit, either. Not unfit, not fat, but he's no Schwarzenegger. He has a slight limp to his left leg. 6'3" is his exact height. (Yes, I typically use very tall characters, but that is simply because my family has quite a few tall people and it's the norm for me.)
Tell us about your family and friends: My father was a cardiac surgeon and my mother was a prosecutor. Saying that they had high expectations of me would be lying, in several respects. For the earliest years of my schooling, I was an outcast due to my heterochromia, which the other kids found 'weird' and 'nasty.' When they matured it wasn't nearly as bad, but I'm still socially reserved as a result; though I have no problem with communicating. I had a few friends through my later years of schooling, but most of my attention was focused on getting into medical school, even though that was beyond college. I made high grades due to my parents' insistence on my education.
What are you like?: Socially reserved, though generally warm.
Do you miss home?: Yes- Well. Huh. The more I think about it the less I want to get back. Testing my strength practically as opposed to spending all my days studying for hours on end is somewhat of an appealing thought...
What would you do to get back?: I wouldn't risk my life unnecessarily.
What do you think about this show?: This show is what it claims to be; a test of one's mental and physical strength. One might say it was barbaric, but different cultures have different values, so it can't really be judged under our values.
What is your favorite color?: Dark Blue |

(kale is accepted!
you can rp now)
Several humans sit on chairs at a singular round table, with papers in front of them. Some of them are reading and filling them, while others have already finished doing so, but all are waiting for what will happen next.
This holds an opportunity to converse and interact between your fellow contestants, or perhaps just sit and do nothing. Whatever you choose for yourself, the TV won't flash on until everyone's finished with filling out their information. (so like, at tomorrow, which should give people who want to join enough time until i close applications 5evr)
In the center of the table, a circular gap opens up, allowing another circle platform with several glasses of light pink liquid for each human to fill the gap. It's not required for anyone to drink it, but it's merely an option available to you. |
