This is a Cold War Era/ Espionage RP set in Europe, 1963. That's right, we're going old school kids. This rp is open to anyone who's interested, just post a character.

The Cold War is at fevor pitch. Several wolrd incidents ahev nearly brought the two superpowers to nuclear war. However, another war is raging, a shadow war unseen by the public. Espionage, counterintelligence, assasinations, all done by highly secretive agencies such as the CIA, MI^, KGB, and many more. For years MI^ has been trying to stave off Soviet spies and try to gain the upper hand in this war. The KGB's influence is wide and its' money good. A man inside the Soviet KGB who is an informant for MI6 sets up a meeting in a Parisian apartment to share information that MI6 has been compromised. The informant and an MI6 agent are both killed. At the same time large sums of money are deposited into the accounts of several British agents. This leads the agency to believe that they were the ones responsible and attempt to bring them in. However, they escape and a race to discover the truth begins as they are hunted across Europe by their own agency and the Soviets. Are they guilty? Can they prove their innocence?

...the M60 was developed in 1957, 6 years before this RP is set...

(Can I join? If so...)

Name: Mikhael Dimitriev
Nationality: Russian
Age: 48
Hair: Dark brown
Eyes: Green
History: Born in St. Petersburg, 1915. His father was a Captain in the Tsarist army who was executed soon after the young Mikhael was born. When his mother died in 1918, he was sent to an orphanage in Volgograd where he was brought up to be a model Soviet citizen. He naturally has little memory of his mother or father, and knows nothing about their Tsarist connections. He joined the Red Army in 1933, and served with distinction during the Great Patriotic War, landing a postwar post in Hungary. In 1956 he watched in horror as his tanks were wiped out by guerillas in Budapest, and fought back brutally. The now Colonel Dimitriev is currently the commander of the Budapest garrison. However, Dimitriev was recently suspected of assisting rogue KGB agent Vladimir Kavaleshvili with escaping into Austria, and is currently under investigation by the KGB. Faced with this situation, and considering an offer made by an American embassy worker years before to reveal who his parents were, Mikhael has been tempted to use his contacts in the military and Hungarian government to defect to the west.

(I could flesh out the other characters mentioned here if not too many others join)

Hey, this thread idea looks awesome, and I'd really like to join, but unfortunately I know little about the time-period and Agencies.

Are there any websites which might help?

And I don't understand the different guns link, where does it allow you to search by era?

Anyway, thanks for any help.
Kulikovia
08-01-2007, 20:50
You can use wikipedia for the agencies. The guns...the site I put down allows you to search all kinds of weapons, some of them are back from then. I'm glad you show interest in this rp.

Assumed Name: Joseph Rozarius
Nationality: Finnish
Age: 23
Hair: Black
Eyes: Blue
History: Growing up in Finnland in a patriotic background, he slowly became disenchanted and then incensed with the government he viewed as mere a lap-dog to the Soviet Union, this would lead him to recruitment by MI6, a quick study he excelled in field-work. Showing a stubborn nature coated in intense apathy he would handle tasks others might find distasteful, and thus has managed to secure a higher-level of clearance, and perhaps trust than he should have...

So, we have two runners, Kulikovia and I.

Sharfghotten in the KGB who will (presumably) be hunting us.

Leninia-Trotskya who will provide several interesting possibilities to the roleplay with his (Possibly defecting) KGB Agent.

Should we begin and hope it attracts more people, or wait?
Kulikovia
09-01-2007, 17:40
Let us wait for one or more people

I may be interested, I do hope this doesn't turn out the way your love n revolution thread went. I think I may keep my characters name.

Assumed Name: Michael "Seraph" Blackburn
Nationality: British
Age: 25
Hair: Black
Eyes: Brown
Agency: MI6
History: Still very young to be in MI6, his father served with distinction within the MI6's units. However, Michael doesn't seem to be carrying his fathers reputation so well - His father died in a particularly botched assassination. The sight of blood and death never suited him, and it probably never will. He's never taken on a major front-line assignment, but the upper echelons of the MI6 seem determined to drag whatever skill his father deposited in him out.
