Story
"Hello, Lawton." He says, as I'm pushed into the room. Its a nice room, a dark wood desk, darker floors, a green-topped table light with a fireplace in the right wall. And behind the desk, a large, old friend sits, on a red recliner, smirking at me from behind is fedora. "Hello. I see you've made quite a life after school." I say, "Indeed, I have. I can see yours isn't so... favorable." I nod. "However I do hear you're quite the good... event planner. I need you to plan me a fundraiser, get together a few guys. I had a few places in mind, but my *favorite* is this quaint little building for rent, right beside the bank on 21st street. I was hoping you could get something set up, and I'll cut you, say, 3% of the profits." "Ten." "Five." "Deal."
Plot
A high-end mafia boss has hired a lay-low mastermind accused of robbing several corporations, though never proven, to gather up a gang for a heist. They'll need a hacker, a safe-buster, a pyrotechnics expert, a sniper, and several grunts for the job. They'll start with a low-security bank for approximately $10,000,000 dollars from their intel.
Rules
-No godmodding, metagaming, powerplaying, etc. -Don't be a jerk. -Keep cussing to a minimum. -Disobey ROBLOX rules at your own risk. -If you have an argument, keep it out of the thread. -Stay semi-realistic. I get its a roleplay and you may not know *everything* about how a heist would go down, you can still keep to basic reality and look things up for extra info. -No Gary and Mary Sues. As in, don't be perfect. -Do not "mark" unless you can't(not won't) make a CS at the time. Either make a CS or leave.

Name: Jerome Lawton Age: 34 Appearance: Chocolate-brown, kind-of-combed hair with faint sideburns and a short beard. Light brown eyes and puffy, prominent lip and small ears. A pointed jaw with a slightly-curving chin, not too pointed, not too flat. Standing at 5'11" and weighing approximately 150 lb.
Position: Mastermind
Biography: Growing up with a drunkaddict father and a mother that had to take over work since his father never could, Jerome was left to take care of his younger 3 year-younger sister. He helped her with her school, always had to keep her occupied to keep her father from hitting either of them, generally playing make-believe, and always had to take care of her birthdays. At first, all he could get together was them having a nice storebought cake, but then he became better and better and by her tenth birthday, got together a nice big party with her friends in the park.
Soon after she started Elementary school, she started liking to hang out with her friends, so he simply took her there and went back home and finally had free time to do what he wanted. He eventually got into the computer and Internet since his father obviously wasn't any good to do anything with, and he loved video games of all types. He became quite the strategist, and by age seventeen he got a friend with him and they robbed a general store of several different games and were never caught. They laughed about it and did it again, and again, and again, and were only ever caught once for something they did on the fly and tried to steal a few candy bars. They got out of high school and slowly started to drift apart. Jerome moved out as soon as he could and lived in a run-down apartment, got a job as a party-planner and kept up his robberies until he was taken by men in black masks, and taken to see guess-who.
Skills: Mastermind, occasional event planner as a side job

Both accepted, but Prostorer, add spaces between commas and periods. Nothing between isn't grammatically correct and whenever I see it I just scream internally....

Accepted, but could you go into more detail of the appearance? I don't care as much about the clothing as the body and face. How the hair is styled(or unstyled, lol), approximately how tall and large he is, etc., then you can just explain what he wears in the RP.

Heist RP's aren't that rare, the amount that have been created on ROBLOX probably couldn't be counted on two sets of... limbs. So many I'm surprised I got as many people as I have so far.

Name: Johnny Ford Age: 25 Appearance: Johnny isn't someone who cares about his appearance much. He has black hair that reaches to the top of his neck, unkempt and quite greasy. He is a Caucasian who stands at about 5'11", with slight bits of muscle mass due to the work he puts in for his job. Commonly sporting a fireproof suit along with a gas mask (you guys reminded of someone?), his real face is disguised most of the time. He does have paler skin due to his line of work and has brown eyes. Position: Pyrotechnics Expert Biography: Raised in a small town on the coast of Florida, Johnny seemed like a normal kid. His grades usually averaged at around B and the like, all except for chemistry- which he usually scored an A on. For odd reasons, he started to want to use this skill for making things such as ignitable materials and using them at different times, such as lighting a fireplace at a friends house. Because of this nature, Johnny's other grades did fall to a C on average. His parents were obviously concerned for his future.
Growing up later, he had to move out. What a surprise. Anyways, he could only manage a few low paying jobs, forcing him to live in a few small, rundown apartments near his hometown. Desperate to support himself, he started to use his little "firestarting talent" as he would put it for... certain things. Such as joining the team committed to heists. Skills: Making things affiliated with fire, of course! Other: nothing in the rules, so, uh, toast |

Name: Johnathan "Johnny" Walker
Age: 55
Appearance: Slightly shorter than average height, Johnny is also slightly wider, leading to a false appearance of being extremely fat (although he is slightly pudgy). He cuts his "black" hair short so that nobody can see the grey hairs, and shaves himself clean. He has a scar running down the left side of his jawbone, from slightly below his green eyes down to the angular chin, going past his pointed nose and average mouth along the way. His arms, despite having a bit of fat on them, are also rather muscular.
He generally wears cheap suits, attempting to appear to be a businessman when in public so as not to arouse suspicion, and in an attempt to look formal for his "business interviews". Wearing suits also helps a mid-fifties white person enter a bank without suspicion, so there's that added benefit. The particular suit that he'll be wearing for this job is a white shirt with a grey two-button jacket and pants, and a black tie.
Position: Grunt
Biography: Born at the height of the cold war in a small town in Virginia almost entirely run by the Bratva, it's obvious that he very quickly needed to learn how to fight to survive. To add to that, his father used to beat him and his brother, and he very quickly became hardened and an effective fighter. One day, when he was about sixteen, some Russians attempted to mug him and some friends, and he shot them dead. After killing the Russian, he went back to his home, where he found his father beating his younger brother. Johnathan, full of confidence after killing the Russian, murdered his father and hid the body in a way that nobody could find it.
One of his friends was found out as having something to do with the murder of the Russian, and gave up Johnny's name as someone else connected to the crime so as to shorten his sentence. Johnny then went to kid prison (I can't find the term whenever I look it up, sorry) for a few years, where he met some other people who were similarly dissatisfied with the Russian mob. One of them was starting another gang in retaliation to the Russians, and Johnny was quick to join. He soon became one of the top enforcers, and proceeded to lead a small group to kill Ivan Marcovic, the man in charge of the Russian mob in his hometown. That created a power vacuum allowing other gangs to enter the town, and Johnny's boss (and by extension Johnny) soon joined in with the mafia.
After Johnny's boss was killed in another incident of gang violence, Johnny was found and readmitted into prison for several gang-related murders, where he heard of the fall of the USSR. After leaving prison this second time, he decided to move to New York City where new job opportunities await. He's spent the past two and a half decades as a freelance thug preforming various crimes and acts of violence for different bidders (until they get caught), always careful to try not to get back into prison. Within a year after leaving prison the second time, he fell in love with a girl who he married, and he's a much better father than his father is, having two sons, only one of whom has a criminal record that he knows of.
Skills: As can be implied by his background, he's good in hand-to-hand combat and with a gun, although stealth work isn't his forte. He can act as an improvised leader if need be, but a chess grandmaster he is not, and as such knows to play second fiddle to those more qualified to write up plans than he. Due to the abuse he had to endure as a child and his time in prison, he also gained quite a bit of physical endurance, being able to take a significant beating without giving up - however, as he's aging, he's becoming slightly nearsighted, and he can't run quite as fast as he used to be able to, so he tries to ensure that he never does anything solo.
Other: I have nothing much else to say other than that my common thug has had more thought put into his CS than most people's specialist criminals. |

Name: Cordelia O'Neal. Age: Twenty-six. Appearance: A tall woman with a gangly body, Cordelia is the sort of person whose gender is hard to understand at first glance. She's skinny in an unhealthy way, with a curveless figure and plain features. At five foot eight, she weighs roughly one hundred and twenty or so pounds, give or take a few. Olive-green orbs adorn her face, set deep within their sockets, and her creamy skin is decorated with freckles. Being of Irish descent, her stark reddish locks mark her as a target in a crowd, though it is frequently dyed a different colour. For simplicity, her bright hair is often cut shoulder, and it's current cut scarcely covers her ears.
For the most part, Cordelia typically dons cheap suits. As she doesn't have much money to splurge, whatever she wears tends to be on the cheaper spectrum, sometimes scavenged from goodwill.
Position: Grunt.
Biography: Born to a struggling Irish family in the lower-class suburbs of Chicago, Cordelia's family struggled with money. With a stay-at-home mother who had a terrible attitude, and a father who nearly worked himself to the bone, the girl spent much of her childhood evading her mother's quick bursts of anger. Her father was rarely home, working late nights at the office in order for his family to retain their meager apartment She moved through life like a zombie, forever trapped in an endless cycle of avoiding her mum. As she came of school age, Cordelia's bleak outlook on life changed somewhat, when she discovered a passion for acting. While her middle school plays weren't the greatest, she loved the feel of slipping into another skin and becoming another person entirely.
She found her vigor in acting, and eagerly devoured various tips and tricks offered to her by the instructors. She even entered voice lessons, for a short amount of time, after convincing her father to work over a little bit of money for the /one/ thing she loved with all her heart. As the years passed, Cordelia slowly broke the shell that had encased her for her first eleven years of living. She wasn't a popular girl, not with her blunt personality, but she did manage to obtain one or two close friends, which was certainly an improvement. With her androgynous form, and the amount of control she had over her voice, the teenager had the ability to play roles of both females and males, albeit the latter was somewhat harder. She did much of her make-up and costumes herself, staying after school almost every day in order to personally sew her outfits.
Well college happened, and Cordelia decided to major in fashion design, knowing beforehand that there wasn't much money to be made by being a small-town actor. She was optimistic, but being 'famous' was certainly something she couldn't achieve realistically. By working two jobs and expending her savings, she managed to scrap together enough money to attend a local community college, and lived in a small, dingy apartment with two others. Despite the fact it was a small college, Cordelia continued to participate in the area's plays and musicals, even if they weren't such of a high quality. In order to do so, however, she had to quit work at one of her jobs, due to it's time-consuming nature. Big mistake.
As her need for money spiraled out of control, the woman started to fall in with the wrong crowd, desperate to pay for her rent and school. Recognized by a local troublemaker for her ability to slip into various personas with ease, she was contacted through this young man, who had taken to boasting about this 'woman he knew who was great as infiltration'. Like a workmaster, he hired her out, always taking a large portion of the finishing share. Even now she struggles for money, intent on paying her student loans and keeping a roof over her head.
Skills: A master of disguise, Cordelia's esoteric knowledge when it comes to becoming a different person entirely marks her as a fair distractor. While she only speaks English, her knowledge of accents allows her to slip into various voices with ease. She can also play both men and women fairly well. Oh, and she can sew. Usually makes her own costumes. Other: Working on this in Tech Cert, and the teacher is making rounds like a hawk. |
