-Over Our Heads-

(My first RP here.)

Deep underground, far below the scarred surface and desolate ruins of old lays one of humanity’s last fortresses; a bunker built and stocked for years before by the government in case a devastating event were to wipe out the lives we once knew and loved, so we would have something to fall back on.
And so this is where we went after the catastrophe scoured the surface, safely living in the earth with people we’ve never cared to meet, in harmony behind emotionless concrete walls built to last for years. The only problem is that our time has long since came and gone and now the stores are dwindling. The council refuses to commission any surface exploration parties; instead they make us rely on our malfunctioning bunker farms and expansive but slowly dwindling mines to provide us with what we need as the power flickers and will one day eventually go out.

Tensions are high as we’ve been debating on what to do and supplies run low, the council obviously does not know the full extent of our plight, but their security force, a select group of well trained and fiercely loyal soldiers are at every exit…

Every *known* exit that is.

According to one of the engineers who supports our cause, there are several other ways out: maintenance shafts, air ducts, and exhaust ports, however our best bet is through the mines and into a long forgotten delivery tunnel, long since overlooked by all of us until now. It will bring us straight to the surface, and though what might be waiting for us is questionable it is the only chance we will get.
If you are ready, come to the mines entrance - after you get your daily rations - where our group will be waiting with supplies. Be careful to not be followed or seen by any of the security officers.
And if you are having any second thoughts… well I don’t think we can have that.

We promise we’ll bury you on the way up.

------------------------------------------------------------
[[Rules and Notes:]]
This will largely be a player driven roleplay with your choices affecting how the plot plays out and how other characters will react towards you.

Little information has been given for a reason; as your surroundings will be largely unfamiliar, you will have to learn how to outsmart enemies and traverse unfamiliar environments.

Yes, you have to join the group going up to the surface, no being the ‘bad guys’ or any of that.

No character sheet needed, please describe your character in your first couple posts. This will include personality, thought processes, and physical appearance. I request that it is at least a paragraph. (6-7 sentences in my book though I’ll be flexible if it is detailed with only 1 sentence to go.)

We will start off near or at the designated meeting place, as it’ll be tedious to go through previous actions.

Use grammar, please.

I’m pretty lenient towards sw/ear/ing and ro/ma/nce, my only rule is don’t go too far as to make my eyes burn.

Constructive criticism is smiled upon, but emphasis on the word ‘constructive’. If you think it is bad, please tell me WHY it is bad.

No ‘perfect’ characters, also note that in theory you’ve been living down in a bunker for years now. You won’t be tan or even that strong unless you have attempted to keep in generally good shape with what resources you are allowed.

If you really need more information to form a backstory (which isn’t required), I will happily provide it.

If I’ve forgotten something or it isn’t in the rules, feel free to inform me. My memory sometimes fails me.

Aha.
Joining...

Saik Horion is a slightly tanned male with an average build. He has quite short, messy brown hair and dark green eyes. He has a birthmark resembling a paw.
His clothes are very simple. A dark green t-shirt, light brown pants and a black belt with a silver-gray buckle. His shoes are simple black sneakers. He is 23 ye.ars o.ld, and is exceptionally good at running. He brought a backpack with his daily rations and a hammer with him for this "expedition".

(Nice, accepted.)

(I'll wait for a bit to see if others are interested and then I'll begin. I don't require others to join for the story to function but 1 on 1 RP is never really fun.)

(Thanks.)

(And yea, I agree. Although ISRPs are fun, a 1 on 1 RP isn't very fun.)

((hugeboo: Anyway, thank you for the compliments, once you join we will start.))

((Recesity: Originality is good if it is done well, after seeing the same thread over and over you tend to want a bit of a change, though that is not to say every single RP must be completely different from all other RPs.))

A girl stepped out of the shadows surrounding the mine, she had listening to these people for a while now, and knew they were nothing to be afraid of. So she carefully moved towards the flickering lanterns that symbolized the group, and quietly walked towards the people. The light from the lanterns occasionally illuminated her pale face, sending shadows across the gaunt structure of it, and filling her gray eyes with brief flashes of light.

Her soft blonde hair was held back in a messy bun, with multiple strands of hair hanging loose around her neck, along with some shorts bangs hanging by her forehead. She then took a moment to stop, and listen to her surroundings. She wanted to make sure these people were who they said they were.

(( What would the clothing be like? ))

((Try praying to the science god for some explosives and a detonating device, as long as it is for 'science' you should get it.))

((Clothing is whatever you may have brought down in the bunker with you, plus there are work clothes available for engineers, miners, and the like.))

((Very nice anyway, accepted.))

((We will be starting as of now, I'll allow Terrifying to make his own entry post.))

~[???]

There are only five people here, gathered grimly by the entry to the mine, slightly hidden by a collection of mine-trams stocked with useless rock, faulty explosives and over-used pickaxes.

"...if they were true to their word they should be coming now." a man garbed in the protective suit and helmet of an engineer says in a low, gritty tone. He bears a lantern and has a backpack full of tools from the looks of it.

"If no one shows up we will have to leave as soon as possible, we can't risk being caught, not now." whispers a brown haired woman in civilian clothing and mud-soaked boots. She is also wearing a backpack and carries a sack over her shoulder.

"Can we even trust them?" asks a figure shrouded in darkness himself, wearing a dull gray hooded sweatshirt with brown slacks and worn tennis shoes. He carries nothing you can see and has a belt with multiple pouches on it.

"No, but it's a chance we have to take. We don't know what might be down there or what we will face on the surface." replies another, silver-haired woman garbed in the lab-coat and armband that label her as a doctor of the complex. She carries a lantern and a medical bag.

The final person, a figure clad in the bulky uniform of a complex security officer, stands silently regarding the group. You cannot tell who this is due to it's tinted helmet and concealing clothing, though you can tell it is well armed.

((Typical civilian clothing was as mentioned above; whatever you took with you.))

((Specialists such as engineers or doctors have a protective jumpsuit with a reflective vest, toolbox, and a hard hat, or a labcoat with a white armband with a red cross on it.))

((Guards wear bulky black uniforms with either a tinted riot helmet or a balaclava under a black helmet so all you can see is their eyes.))

I swing my head around, my lengthy brown hair slapping the side of my pale skin. I take a quick examination of my surroundings, checking to see if anyone is following me. I then throw my hood black hood on while turning into a dark alley. I keep my head down staring at my black sneakers. I see a crowd of people surrounding an exit. "Guess I'm not late" I think to myself as my dark brown eyes dart to and fro, looking at the people who are going to accompany me on this journey. I stuff my skinny pale arms into my hoodie pockets as I try to hide my anticipation and fear from the rest of the crowd.

The girl straightened her partially worn leather boots, and continued on her way to the lights. She still didn't know if she could trust them, but she was a pretty good runner, and ready to bolt when the time came. She was wearing simple jeans, and a loose black shirt, which was covered in a worn leather jacket. The jacket had belonged to her father, and while she had once lived with him down here, he had caught a deadly sickness, and didn't live much longer after that. One final thing she was wearing was a simple silver pendant. It didn't look to be worth much on a first glance, but to her, it was a sign of strength. This pendant resembled a heart, but it had become so deformed, that it now looked like an intricate design, in the middle of the pendant was a red gem.

Now near enough to make out the figures, and hear the voices clearer then before, she boldly walked up to the other people, and smiled as she said, "I heard we're leaving this dump."

(My Character is going to be in 3rd person...but im RPing in 1st if thats Ok?)

Joseph stood quietly and shyly in the corner, stroking his short brown beard, his brown beard matched his eyes and his hair which was rather messily straggled around his head. Joseph observed his hand, all pale and veiny, thin too. Living in a dimly lit bunker with no decent food or drink took its toll. Joseph dusted his hands off on his torn and battered blue pants, they were baggy but finding clothing that fits wasn't a luxury he could afford, his also applied to his blue thick jacket which had 'Security' printed in bold white letters across the back, although you couldn't see it as it was blocked by a protective jacket.

Joseph was in the corner mumbling to himself, he liked to do that...even though it may have looked insane it was the only thing keeping him sane. He never liked to engage with other people and was rather solitary...but soon he knew this would only jeopardise his relations with the others.

Joseph also sported a Protective blue helmet with a black tinted visor covering his eyes, preventing anybody from making direct eye contact.
