~(Story)~ For a while now, a large company called "Arch-Tect" has been pushing the boundaries, limits, and extensions of the world we live in as of now, the time being 2014. Arch-Tect doesn't settle for half-assed work or do just one task at a time, they're a large multitasking company with topics most commonly known as archaeology, paleontology, bio-engineering, and splicing with genetic mutations. Their most common and largest bases take place in Canada, Australia, and Asia, though they have one abandoned facility in Antarctica that was supposedly the third Arch-Tect laboratory ever made. It's reasons for being left to die in many treacherous blizzards and be lost forever are unknown.
Two days ago, the main Arch-Tect laboratory which is set place in Canada was given a very interesting and yet disturbing SOS message from their abandoned third facility set in Antarctica. This is suppose to be impossible for many reasons. For starters, Arch-Tect shut off all appliances there. Another large reason is the coordinates from here to that facility were never made, found, or traced so how could of they reached them? And the last reason is that from Arch-Tects request, the Canadian Government bombed that facility, meaning there should be nothing left. The government would take orders from someone they didn't know well or weren't associated with, meaning the government could of had something to do with this.Only the top and most famous Arch-Tect scientists, workers, and staff know about this though, and only the commanders know what really happened to Arch-Tect 3. The most logical option to them was to send in a team of the strongest and most fit staff-workers down to Antarctica and see who, or what, was able to contact them in a land that was supposed to be wiped out.
All of the mysteries don't add up, but so far we've gotten that the Commander and Canadian Government have teamed or done something mistakenly or purposely and they tried to rid of it, but what could it possibly be? And the last thing to top all of this is off is that the Commander refuses to tell anyone what he heard in the SOS message.
~(Genre)~ I'm going to try my best to make this at least a bit suspenseful and try to add in horror, though I find it very hard to do so here. One of the many things not allowed will be romance. Who's going to make love in a 0 degrees area in the snow? This is set in modern time meaning no steampunk, abilities, lycanthropy, or anything.
~(Rules)~ 1. I don't want to be harsh, but in order to do this roleplay, you MUST listen to the posts I make since they will usually be adding updates (They will look like this: [UPDATE] or [EVENT]) or anything else that could be major to the story.
2. Weapons will not be used, though you CAN use normal items you need (Ex: Pickaxe, hammer, flare gun) to use as weaponry. It's very unlikely you're going to bring a katana to the middle of Antarctica when you don't even know what lies there ahead.
3. For once in my roleplays, I will be making admins, but only for when I'm not posting. I don't use favoritism, just people that I can completely trust. Admins are able to accept/decline, kick/ban, and make major events to the story. They are NOT able to make their characters better or more "important" than someone else's.
4. Death will be common once you actually find out what happens there, though you can always make a new character. Also, if you somehow find someone to magically summon a boat that can break through ice or a helicopter that knows where you are with a magical lamp, please don't. A big key to the plot is that we're going to be unable to leave that area once we arrive, but I won't say anything else.
5. I don't plan on making this a sequel, but I'd like for it to last a while if people decide to join it. All of my others are decreasing or going nowhere, or already have died. The roleplay will be able to join at all times and I'll just try to find a way to put you in.
6. Character sheets that are inadequate will not be accepted. They must have somewhat decent grammar, a life that someone in the real life could have, and realistic aspects.
7. When posting, you can use 1st or 3rd person, but if posting with 1st, please put your name above the post you're making, for example:
AndrewCup (<-- You know you love it.)
I finally arrive to the boardwalk set place in California, though a wild hawk appeared out of nowhere and mistook my hair for a small squirrel. The bleeding won't stop...
Stuff like that, but you know... Makes more sense... I think you get the idea.
8. I don't have a secret word to make you put under your roleplay or in Other, though if you ARE reading this, it would be nice of you to let me know you read it all. :)
9. A-g-e range is 19+. It would be very strange to see a 15 y(dot)ear old walking around Antarctica. I think that's illegal for a company to even hire someone like that. ButwhatdoIknow"?
~(Character Sheet)~
Name:
A-g-e:
Gender:
Role in Arch-Tect: (<-- This means what do you do for them, like are you a geneticist, a scientist and if so what for, or are you an archaeologist or paleontologist. Some roles/jobs will not be accepted but try to be creative. You can delete these parentheses and words inside of it.)
Background:
Appearance:
~(TipTipHintHint)~
I know this may seem cliche as hell, but please hold off on flaming it and bashing it right to the ground. I just thought a more suspenseful and mysterious roleplay would be nice since I don't see many of them anymore. I don't know why I'm making this late at night though because late-night RP is much inactive than the day.
^Just thought I should say that. |

| They will be going to Antarctica so a scientists dressing in puffy clothing would be natural, though the clothing will be Arch-Tect so it would still look, well, sciency. |

[This is a lovely roleplay, with just the right amount of suspense. I am sorry if my character sheet is rather short, I am just very tired. And, I read all of your rules.]
~(Character Sheet)~
Name: Skye Katrina Canon
A-g-e: Skye's 25th birthday recently passed.
Gender: She is female.
Role in Arch-Tect: Skye is a young archaeologist, who's been working with the company since she was fresh out of college. Typically, she'll go to few excavation sites and mostly study and record discovered artifacts.
Background: Skye in her youth was bubbly and adventurous, always wanting to explore and expand her knowledge of the land surrounding her. Growing up on a family farm, this wasn't much of a problem for her. For Christmas one year, she was gifted with a metal detector, and it wasn't until she started finding long lost treasures that she really began to have a passion for arcaheology.
Appearance: Skye is a petite young lady, who is an inch or two short for the average height for her age. Her hair is a medium brown in color, layered down past her shoulders and slightly covering her right eye. Skye's skin is pale, and her cheeks are lined with faint freckles. Her eyes are a dull blue and optically enhanced by thin black glasses. Her most precious appearance detail, however, is an engagement ring wrapped around her left ring finger. |

All are accepted. I don't mind if character sheets are small as long as they make sense and are explainable.
@super; Gee thanks. <3 Roleplays just take longer considering the fact for most people it's midnight or lower. |

Looks like you need another person to start this up. I'll apply, heh.

A-g-e: Twenty-eight
Gender: Male
Role in Arch-Tect: He tests the very new, and the very deadly experimental items Arch-Tech has created.
Background: His father worked at Arch-Tech, except fifteen years ago, he disappeared. This sparked Vinnie's main intrests in Arch-Tech; he wanted to find information of how his father randomly disappeared. But, after the four years he's been sneaking Arch-Techs most precious files, and information, he's still come up empty handed. He's given up all hope, that is until, volunteers are being taken to go to Antartica, where a main base of operations was abandon. This is his last hope of finding out what really happened to his father. He volunteers with a grin, plastered on his face.
Appearance: Average size, five-eleven, not very masculine, bur noT un-fit either, somewhere in between the two. Shaggy brown hair, Hazzel eyes, pale skin. I'm not putting down any clothing descriptions. We'll be wearing heavy duty coats and pants, considering we'll be in Antartica.
I read it all. If you do want clothing description, I'll put it down. |

For some reason, it's like I've become nocturnal because I keep waking up at night and sleeping in the day.
Bump.) |
