This is a treasure hunt rp set in South America. If you're interested, sign-up here.

South America is a continent of jungles, mountains, and ancient civilizations. The most powerful were the Inca who founded cities along impossible cliffs, forging an empire filled with riches. When the Spanish invaded in the 1500's they easily conquered the Incans, taking all the riches...or so they thought. The Incans built a city in the Amazon River Basin which was abandoned for unknown reasons. A Spanish expedition set out into this hostile enviroment in search of this lost city. A year later a starving, and exhausted monk emerged in Brazil, rambling about lost cities, warrior cults, and death. He claimed to have seen the city but died from disease several days later, a tattered map in his posession disappeared. Hundreds of years later the map is recovered by a Brazilian professor who was found dead. The professor had hoped to assemble a team to accompany him to the city and explore the region. Before he died, he managed to assemble the group. Upon learning of his death they set upon a quest to recover the map and search for the ancient city. But certain groups are determined to find it first and prevent them from reaching the city. A deadly race, filled with intrigue, murder, and deceipt follow them as they search for a fabled treasure.

Name: Sabas Valentin
Job: Peru Crimelord
Age: 32
Height: 6'1''
Hair: Black
Eyes: Green
History: Though he is not without a heart and was raised as an orphan by a Catholic Bishop, Sabas Valentin rarely shows this is true. Sabas is Peru's most active and feared Crimelord and is even rumored to be planning his own coup. Everyone who suspects so is certainly correct, though he first requires the money to do so.
On a stop in Brazil for business with supporting services, Sabas heard about the map that led to the fabeled treasure likely hidden in his country. If there was a treasure as great as Sabas heard it was, it would be enough to bring Peru to his knees and even advance it into a new age of modernization.
It was for this reason he paid several small time criminals to kill the Professor who possessed the map to the lost city, but unfortunate circumstances caused the map to slip his fingers. Sabas will not settle for anything less than getting the map and will be more than willing to do anything to get his hands on the treasure...

OOC: perhaps instead of wanting a big scale rp, have a small one between 4-5 people so that its easier to keep the ball rolling?

IC:
Chelsea jumped off the plane in South America, wearing her exploration gear, she used her map skills and headed towards the nearest settlement.
