    Disregard

    Welcome to the slum streets of the heavily populated city-planet of Vergak, you and a small group of strangers have woken up in an uninhabited alleyway near a sewage dump, with what seems like people yelling, dogs barking, a bright lights rushing towards you, you all have no time to act, this is where the adventure begins, in a so-far foreign area, with foreign people chasing you, and worst of all, no short-term memory of how you got there, everything that has happened in the past couple weeks is a blank slate for all of you.
    Your mission is to survive in this ruthless city-planet however you can, with nothing on hand.
    Especially with mysterious figures chasing you down wherever you go.
    Choose how you survive, maybe try to join the figures, become a gang lord, con your way to luxury, fly away from the planet ASAP.
    It's all yours to mould.​
    Disclaimer: New characters will not be introduced as 'sleepers'

    Background:
    Picture/physical description:


    The rules of the RP are simple:
    1: Talk OOC in IC as little as possible.
    2: Don't be rude to others OOC, IC is okay if your characters are enemies.
    3: The GMs word is law, if they say your character got injured, they got injured.
    4: NO GODMODDING(obviously).
    5: Obey your character's stats and limitations.
    6: Please make your posts at least a sentence and a half long, but not several paragraphs either.
    7: Have fun and be kind to your fellow RPers.
    8: NO META ROLEPLAY.
    9: POST SOMETHING RELATED. Your character can have time off but posting only one sentence replies about something random throughout the RP and overall wasting the GMs time is not okay, if you don't plan on being in the story then you can talk in OOC.​

    Character Stats:
    Character stats are what make your character your character, they determine how well your character can handle situations and increase your chance of success the higher that stat is, it's pretty simple once your wrap your head around it!

    Oh feel free to join anyway, in this RP you can basically make your character idol a lot of stuff, I wouldn't say I'm forcing any specific RP behaviour here, I'm trying to make a very free RP.[DOUBLEPOST=1445668542][/DOUBLEPOST]I was also wondering if the point stat total is too small, I had it at 70 first and then I felt like that allowed for too much balance.
    Ah well I'll change it back to 70.

    Name: Spike
    Race: Novakid
    Age: Young/forget
    Flaws(preferably actually effects the character):Impulsive, Rude, Paranoid, Explosive (Explosions of rage and energy).
    Strengths: Keen eye, can breathe fire.
    Gender: Male

    Charisma: 4
    Strength: 13
    Agility: 13
    Intelligence: 8
    Vitality: 13
    Dexterity: 13
    Sanity/will: 6

    Background: At the age of five Spike was abducted by a group of apex whom worked out that by changing a novakid's brand they could do some cool stuff. Spike's brand was put through the electromagnetic machine that increased his speed, the crushing hammer that increased his strength, the centrifuge which increased vitality. These tests left him unstable and he was prone to rage.

    One point, after they decided to not let him play the next video-game in his favorite series, he slammed down his hand on to a shiny metal table and yelled spewing fire from his mouth "I'm done-(use your imagination for these words) -bye" and left. He stole in a S-class quad-FTL cruiser that was stopping off for supplies.

    He then sold this at a human shipyard then got accustomed to the highlife of human aristocrats. He then started living out his life acquiring goods from people then selling them sometimes to the people he acquired them from.

    Picture/physical description: A blue novakid with a mercury (silvery) brand the shape of the mercury symbol. Quite lanky. He wears a black suit and a bowler hat. :nurudapper:

    Very nice! but I did bring up the max points allowed for usage by 10 because for now it seems pretty scarce, so feel free to add some points on there.
    @camerox looking at his flaws I think you should lower his charisma and/or sanity/will stats a little, also raise his dexterity a bit.

    I'm probably going to join this, but just so you know I'm new here.[DOUBLEPOST=1445689008][/DOUBLEPOST]Name: Xoch

    Age: Mid-twenties
    Flaws: Lacks physical strength, rude/snarky, can't swim
    Strengths: Fast and agile

    Charisma: 4
    Strength: 5
    Agility: 17
    Intelligence: 10
    Vitality: 13
    Dexterity: 6

    Background: Xoch was abandoned at the age of 6 because his mother didn't make enough money to provide for him. He lived on the streets, stealing food and supplies to survive. He is also a non-believer, not wanting to be a part of religion so zealous they killed those who were not of faith. Somehow, this secret got out, and his survival became significantly harder, with the constant threat of being found and stealing the things he needed to survive. Then, one day, while Xoch was on run from two guards, a fleet of Floran bandits began their assault on the city. Amongst the panic, Xoch nabbed someone's starship passcodes. He escaped the planet, and set off to make a living.

    Yeah! Depends on the race though, if it's more known then that's fine but if it's some obscure race then I'd say you should re-think that.

    I'll just go ahead and explain them all and what they effect:

    Agility is 100% movement based, like if you're getting chased down it effects the chances of you say running into a stranger, falling, and getting caught.
    Dexterity is completely melee attack based, so if your character uses swords I would suggest they have decent dexterity, also dexterity happens to be reactionary as a stat, and increases chance to parry and such.
    Sanity/will is your character's willpower, or in general mental health, so if your character is mentally unstable they'll have low sanity/will, also useful if you get caught and interrogated.
    Intelligence is partly so I can limit your character's knowledge so they don't seem to know everything, this effects your character's general problem solving and all that.
    Charisma is the way your character talks, looks, the feeling they give off to NPCs, this obviously effects just how silver-tongued your character is and how well they use it.
    Strength is the other attack based half of dexterity, (almost)completely effects how much damage you do with physical attacks, also effects their ability to move objects and such.
    Vitality is the general endurance and health of your character, for example if they have a vitality of lower than 5 then they can be instantly killed by a gunshot to the torso.
    Vitality can also be used in terms of stamina, not how fast but how long your character can run.
    Perception is obviously your character's ability to perceive things from a distance, perceive things in the shadow, and it also greatly effects your character's ability to aim a gun.

    OKAY let's just rip off that thing on his face.. aaaaand there!

    Seems like a good Avian character to me, don't panic if you're new, everyone can do this!
    My only suggestion is that you develop your character a little more, at the moment Xoch seems to be pretty static.

    Very good! Your character has some.. ehhmm.. unforntunate mishaps in their life, but that's good, the fact that he was born in the slums will help.

    CondescendedWow Supernova

    Nah, it's okay for them, although I'm not particularly saying people of the same race will be everywhere.

    It's actually 75 so I ask you lower your overall stats by a bit.
    Other than that good character.
    Nobody seems to want a charismatic character though.

    Okay then, this will be my first Roleplay then!
    Here's my character ( I think this is finished)
    Name: Danger Spider
    Race: Floran
    Gender: Female
    Age: 20
    Flaws(preferably actually affects the character): She Isn't very smart, has trouble controlling herself, tends to head right into a battle instead of thinking things through first.
    Strengths: She's strong, fast, and knows how to use a weapon
    (Out of 1-20, 70 points allowed in total)
    Charisma: 5
    Strength: 14
    Agility: 13
    Intelligence: 4
    Vitality: 13
    Dexterity: 13
    Sanity/will: 8
    Total=70

    Background: Born on a forest Planet, Danger was raised to fight and hunt, as is tradition.
    Early in her life she was injured, the injury affected her brain, limiting her intellect, though she may not be very smart, she is still fast and strong. Danger is literally in her name, she loves getting in fights, but hates planning out fights, she instead prefers to rush into a battle with no knowledge of what she's facing. She's great if she's an ally, but deadly if she's an enemy.
