This is a collab between people. Yes I was inspired by creature feature. Yes this is a repost, I blame my keyboard
BASIC IDEA Alright So the base idea is that there is a group of grave robbers that go into tombs and graves to steal things and the corpses and sell them to cults/the black market, the christian church is upset with this and begin setting up a religious task force of sorts This will take place in 1912, where modern medicine has barely begun and the only way to learn about the human body is to test on the dead.
PLOT (Kind of)
Massachusetts, 1917,
"A string of grave robberies have occurred in the small town of Viant, police has been investigating this. The holy church is currently in an uproar over this defiling of sacred grounds." -Headlines from the Massachusetts gazzete from the 13th of May.
"These grave robbings are unacceptable, whoever has been stealing the dead from their graves will be put into custody" -The pope during a public appearance on the 16 of June.
"This is all for science you see, there is no reason you should be assaulting these......'scientists' from working in the name of science" -Doctor Richter Ramsay's court plead on the 19th of July, before being executed for treason
"This is not science! Science is for the good of the world, not the desecration of our ancestors!" -Esteemed Doctor Heidi in an interview.
"Leave us alone" -Note from suspected grave-robbers to the church, found in the empty grave of a Nathan Walters on the first of August.
"The strangled pony, 8:45 tomorrow" -Note delivered to you today, written in blue ink and delivered with a satchel of money and a revolver, exactly 30 dollars and a break-open revolver with 6 shots.
RULES Basic rules apply You will become part of the grave-robbing syndicate. No exceptions. Your character has to be over 18 unless given permission. You begin outside of the strangled pony tavern.

CHARACTER SHEET
Na.me: Joseph Flowers A.ge: 35 App.earance: s.kin: Tan Hair Co.lor: Brown Hair Style: Semi-long, tied simply with a ribbon Eye col.or: Brown Height: Five foot four Build: Sturdy Voice: Bass; calm and level Play By/Description: A little top heavy, owing to his previous trade as a blacksmith. Flowers is usually seen in uniform, even when on leave. As a cavalryman, he takes pride in a smart appearance, though when on campaign this is not always easy or even possible to achieve. He wears a dark blue long-tailed coat with white facings, white smallclothes, and a light blue epaulette on the left shoulder to denote his rank. His tall boots and crested helmet make him stand out, unless he is amongst others
Inventory: A flintlock/ luger Bio: He started out as a sergeant in the army, he was a member of the cavalry. [Hence the uniform.] He left the army at the age of 30. He then started blacksmithing. [May I be a policea?]If so; He then joined the police to help locals. If not; He then took interest in graverobbing. He could make a lot more money then blacksmithing. So here we are.

Criticism (that is to say, constructive criticism) is properly pointing out flaws in an RP and offering helpful advice that is more likely to improve the RPer.
There really is no difference between destructive criticism and trolling in this particular forum. |

(Trolling is using logical fallacies to anger the people you're trolling, what I do isn't trolling, it's straight up harsh hatred, now please leave, you're derailing my thread)

She has a matching black hat addorned with a white feather and she wears high heels for shoes. Inventory: A notepad and fountain pen, a map with some of the black markets marked onto it, a small revolver for defence. Bio: Shannon mostly helps the grave robbers with trading and such. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father died in a work accident. There were no relatives to the family they could find, so she was stuck on the streets. She grew up there and eventually got into crime to survive. |
