Ok people this is a signup thread for my RP. This is going to be a character RP involving the growth of somone young. The school is actually the conscription method for my nation, take them while they are young. It's going to start out as your character is a young child, about 2-5, taken away from his or her parents. It is going to go through training, and then into specialty training. I am expecting you to try to get your character to revolt and they will get dealt with.

If you are interested TG me, or post here with your character name. We'll decide specialty status later.

A list of those who have decided to participate in hell

Arthaga Nova
-Arthas Scipius
-Natalia Karota
-James Cambridge

Theao
-Cas Valk
-Cara Aradine

Interesting Slums
-Tetol Andodrak
-Jestil Gaslt

Hey, put that list on here, I think it's fair everyone participating get's to see it.
Slightly stronger/faster/more limber baseline(10% better than normal) and enhanced sight, smell and hearing (50% better than normal)
10% faster/stronger and more limber than a normal 5 year old
50% better sight, hearing and sense of smell than normal for a human

I asked him to do another character as well, one that isn't modified. The modified one will get sent to a different type of training
Arthaga Nova
19-03-2005, 05:23
Ah, in that case...

250% more sadism.
100% more sarcasm.
-75% spine when dealing with women.
100% more masochism.

you can do two characters anyway, although to avoid confusion, don't use the name Arthas for this one.

Oh, well, many of those RPs are dead or inactive. But if I must, I can conjure up a few names. I was going to have a girl as a second character, hope you don't mind.

May I ask what time this RP is likely to take place?
I live in New Zealand so I am at school when americans are online, apart from the weekends (17hrs ahead of US ET, or -7hrs and +1day)

I live in Oregon, so I'm three hours off of the east coast time zone. so It should be a bit easier to RP. I'm sort of seeing this develop as more of a developmental RP so your time difference shouldn't matter too much.

EDIT: your three hours behind my time zone. so when it is midnight here it will be 1900 hours for you. I usually stay up till 200 hours so it shouldn't be a problem

Although I should have mentioned this earlier, but next week I'm going to be gone on tuesday through friday. I'll let the OOC thread sit for about a half an hour before I make the IC thread.

that can be done, in a very painful way. But only if you want him to die.

Yay, welcome back NoF. Sure, let the new ones in, why not? Have them mbe transfer students from another base or something. So long as they give us some high-quality RP'ing, I won't complain.

if you want to, It isn't essential, just gives me bit more of a feel for your character.

Also what time zone are you in, we seem to big on figuring that out
I am in pacific time zone, Arthas is in central, I'm pretty sure Theao is in central as well, and Slums is in New Zealand

I like you post it was well done, BTW

and a fair warning, I dont' think it will too much of a difference, I hope you dont' mind too much Gore

And I don't mind gore at all, I will try to include more in my posts as the other children get to know me.

Several qualifications though
1, you don't mind a decent amount of gore
2, you have a good RP track record
3, you have at least skimmed over most of the RP
4, might as well give us your time zone, seem to have everyone elses

might as well answer your qualifications, since you TG'ed me saying I could join the second version when it starts:

1. I don't mind gore very much at all.
2. I haven't RP'ed on here, but I do have a good record on three other forums. Will that be enough?
3. I've read most of it. I'm reading the rest as soon as I've posted this.
4. My time zone is Eastern time, GMT -5 hours.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to whenever the second one starts. :)

I saw the qualifications. So here we are...

1. Gore? Meh...
2. I don't have a track record per se, but I have RP'd since eleven (I am fifteen now).
3. I've read most of what I could get by in school.
4. Time is central Texas time.

I'll have more later!

We're going to be doing one just like this one pretty soon, so all of those people who missed out can join in that one. We still have to title it and the sort, but we'll get on that pretty soon. It will be me and Arthaga Nova hosting it. So to get an Idea of how that one will go, read this one.
