Mind Control in Rigley (Interest/Sign Up/Thread) Open MT/PMT

OOC:

Ok this is a Interest/Sign up thread for a RP ive been planning for a while. If it takes off this thread will become the OOC Thread. This RP is a great RP in its own right but is also forming a great bit of back story for a future Thread I have planned.

Anyway to Summarize it this RP will be taking place on a Island called Rigley Island North West of the Vetakan Mainland. A very lonely and some what strange College Professor develops a way to exact Mind Control upon the Population of the Town of Rigley.

More Details:

Characters:

At the moment their is just two main Characters I can see the Professor a Dr Gump and a girl he is obbessed with Katie Stuart. All though these are the two main Characters id like for anybody whom wants to be involved have a character

The Dr is your typical super geek and is totally in love with he often has fantasys regarding Katie dreaming of making her his own etc etc. I am open on Characters tho.

Location:

Rigley Island and more importantly the town of Rigley which is of similar size to Springfield in the Simpsons. Rigley is isloated on an Island and is 66 Miles from the North Western Coast of the Vetakan Island of Newman. It has a small mountain range and is similar to the enviroment shown on the PS2/X-Box Game Gun.

Plot:

The Dr Gump seizes control of much of the Population. However Katie and anybody else whom wants to get involved manage to resist the control signals however they do experience hearing voices. On hearing of the Incident the Vetakan Government seal off the area and decide what to do the decide to Prepare to destroy Rigley by a Nuclear Strike. Anyway Characters must find a way to stop Gump or escape before the Island is destroyed.

I am totally open to whatever people would like to do in this RP thread as long as it happens I am not really bothered as I said it will form part of a future RP so if nobody wants to get involved ill RP it with myself lol. If you want to get involved as I can see the following are up for grabs if you want to play neither just come up with somebody new and give some details.

Anyway Regards Vetaka

Hmm...sounds like a good thread.

Could I perhaps play a Police Officer who manages to resist? It'd allow a good intro - he perhaps sees people walking around in a trance-like state, affected by the mind control?

Yep go for it Pan-Arab Barronia could you put up a little profile like name, age, appearance etc etc. And ill TG you the deatils of the Vetakan Police Equipment and abit of history on Rigley.
Green Hawk
02-05-2007, 21:55
Can I join? This sounds fun:D

So, I was thinking that a Special Forces team from Green Hawk is sent to help deal with the Doc, but the team gets ambush and takes heavy casualties. They meet and team up with Katie, then we make up more stuff from there. What do you think? I'm open to any ideas you have too.
Vetaka
02-05-2007, 21:59
Hmmm.... Green Hawk yes but provisonally you couldnt be sent to help as IC Vetaka is notorious for dealing with domestic matters internally but what you could do is be sent by your government to try and seize control of the Mind Control Technology????

Sounds good. Gimme 5 minutes and I'll have you an Officer of The Law.

EDIT: Behold! One police officer, with (very) brief bio. More to come on this chap as I think of it.

Name: Charles "Charlie" Wednesday
Age: 43
Appearance: Caucasian, 6'1", silver-haired, beginning to bald ("it's hereditary!")
Occupation: Sergeant in Rigby Police Department
Bio:

Having left school with slightly higher-than-average grades, he followed in his fathers footsteps and joined the force. A dedication to being an "honest cop" and maintaining law and order made him a hit with his commanders but made him many enemies. Usually found on patrolling on foot the streets of Rigby, he is an amicable chap, maintaining the good name of the Rigby PD, and is always willing to help.
Green Hawk

Okay, I'll think of this more in depth and make some plans for the team's role in the story.

I be a military officer in Rigley

Name: Alex Wilson
Age: 24
Appearance: Has long black hair and is quite lanky.
Occupation: A leading officer of the 5 VDF Diplomatic Guard Troops
Bio:

He was a track star for his high school and had decent grades. He decided to join the army when he was 18 since his father was very patriotic and urged him to join the army. He is armed with a Xm8 and a short sword. Also he is not the sharpest needle in the haystack but can make up for it with his quick thinking. He's an engineer and is an expert at it. He is a heavy drinker and sometimes gamble away his money. He has a lot of common sense and knows when to run or stay.

Dragonicale sounds good however their is no actual Vetakan Army Garrison in Rigley but your captain is attached to the Vetakan Defence Force Diplomatic Guard whom protect the Mayor of Rigley. Your Captain is the Commanding officer of a team of 5 VDF Diplomatic Guard Troops. Sound Ok?

Also the standard Vetakan Rifle is the XM8 but ill TG you some history on Rigley and more about the VDF Diplomatic Guard and Standard Vetakan Army Equipment is that ok?

Pan-Arab Barronia check your TG please

Info on team & characters (Most of the team gets killed so there is only about four characters on my part.

Main character in the team: Phoenix Hunter
Supporting character: Kestrel Hunter(Little sis of Phoenix)
Random Green Hawk Soldier One: George (Random guy that may or may not die. So why would you want to know his last name?)
Random Green Hawk Soldier Two: Grate (Look above)

Phoenix Hunter: Comes from the proud Hunter family, who have severed Green Hawk since the beginning. He is not the strongest or the smartest, but his loyalty and lack of selfishness makes him a great leader. He has always lead the team and is the first into the fray. His pride gets in the way some times, but his duty comes first for him. He is willing to die for Green Hawk, but doesn't want his sister to make the same sacrifice.

Kestrel Hunter: Tomboy at heart, Kestrel is strong, confident and is quite smart. She gets annoyed at her older brother's over protective nature over her, but she cares for him too. Same as her bro, pride and loyalty make up her personality.

Who cares about the other two? The other eight get killed so why care about them either?

Good characters if I may say so myself:D

I think I said this sounded cool in a TG or somethig, hmm...:confused: Well, if it's not too injurious to creative control, might I play Dr. Gump? I've been in a mindset where I've sort've wanted to do what he does, so it's a role I'm familiar with at least: the erudite but more-than-slightly creepy respected figure.:D I can think of others yet if he's for sure taken by the author, since yeah NPCs are of course good for simplicity's sake in certain roles...
Vetaka
03-05-2007, 13:31
Glad to have you aboard Wagdog ill TG you history of Rigley, Dr Gump and his love Katie

Good Character Canadstein ill Add them now

Wagdog: Check your TG

Pan-Arab Barronia & Osteia: Vetakan Police are a Military Grade Police Force as such their Training is very intense and some what Military Like dont be afraid of using Military Formations and Military Ideology as in IC your Characters would recieve that kind of training. Basically it would not be strange for your characters to be able to use an Assualt Rifle like it was natural.

Dragonicale & Canadstein: Vetakan Military Soilders recieve in total 4 years of training so they are very well trained they also are constantly being retrained in various other aspects so IC don't be afraid to Multi Ability your players basically just because your Characters are Gunners doesnt mean they are just that it would not be strange for them to be trained in Explosives, Sniper, Computer Hacking Etc Etc

Dragonicale: As you are the Highest Ranking Vetakan Defence Force Officer in Rigley you would be bound by the Oath of Loyalty to protect the Mayor when he falls under the Mind Control your aim would be to Inform Vetakan Central Command in Theeb as all Communication would probably be down this would have to be done by a peice of kit called an OBSAT Emergancy Distress Beacon basically its a small device that sends a Red Alert Distress Beacon to Central Command in Theeb. Theeb then dial back and IC ill contact you understand?

Green Hawk: As you are playing Special Forces your main Obstacle will be actually penertrating Vetakan Defences via OBSAT and Standard Tracking Vetaka tracks anything that enters its waters or air space. IC ill RP you entering my Borders as I would anything unknown as a threat. As I said before your best insertion choices are by High Altitude Low Opening Jump (HALO) or Advanced SEAL Delivery System. Also the Vetakan Government would Seal the area once hearing of the situation the better you will also need to RP your government becoming aware of the situation best way to do this that I can think of would be if Katie sends an E-mail to a "friend" she has in Green Hawk that actually is a Green Hawk Spook for RP Sake ill call him "Sam Gerrard" a man who lives in your capital I hope this ok I know you probably wont read this until Saturday so if it that you have objections ill Edit the various posts.

HALO (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HALO)

SEAL (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_SEAL_Delivery_System)

Everybody (With the Exception of Wagdog): Remember guys this is Mind Control everybody will of resisted but please remember you got to RP that resistence in IC from what I have researched common symptons of an entity trying to Carry Mind Control are:

- Hearing the Attempting Controllers Voice (In this RP Wagdog)
- Seeing Visions of the Controller or A Persons Greatest Fear
- Very Persuasive Visons/Voices
- Very Horrfic Images
- Intense Pleasure Feelings (Often Sexual)

How the Mind Control is administered is left in the hands of Wagdog so we will see just how it comes about please RP your Characters resisting the Mind Control Attempts. Any Questions?

In game throughout the NS World I rely on a Multi Purpose System known as OBSAT I recommend all Characters especially the Police Officers and the VDF Troops to read the thread below as the Vetakan Government in Theeb would use OBSAT to be its eyes.

OBSAT (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=521785)

Any Questions at all?

Finally to anybody whom has just discovered this thread:

^^THIS THREAD IS STILL OPEN EVEN WHEN IT STARTS I AM STILL OPEN TO ACCEPTING NEW CHARACTERS PLEASE JUST SUGGEST A CHARACTER AND WE WILL SEE WHAT WE CAN DO^^

There we just go with the flow. If you haven't notice, I got back earlier then I thought. 'Cause I'm cool like that :cool: lol
