i will explain the rules and set up on the 10th

[radicalapologist]

SIGN UP IS NOW CLOSED

OK! Lets move the next step up to today.

This step is IMPORTANT to your character and the characters they will be working with.

This part is for your CHARACTER BIOS.
What this pretty much means is that you will be telling the basic...EVERYTHING about your character. any important info about your character to help us get to know them. these guys are all to be friends after all.

now for the set up

real name of your character: you may you YOUR name or a name you made up. its up to you.

land: the name of your land. pretty much just how it is.

title: your title. pretty much the same as up there.

we need at least one person to be the time shenanigans guy. this will be picked later to help things from getting confusing. for now we just post our titles and later i will ask you to change it to "of time" when the time comes

the character bio body: this will work pretty much like it does in homestuck. show your likes, dislikes, and hobbies while trying to be as descriptive as possible. give people a feel for your character. if you need to, blow your character out a bit, make them for then just you ya know? we wanna make this as entertaining as possible for everyone around us.

your guardian if you have one: this is where you tell about your guardian. it could be your mom, dad, uncle, big cousin whatever. just put them down and talk about them a bit.

strifekind: pretty much just as it sounds. name the weapon you use.

modus: tell us the modus you use.

chumhandle: name the chumhandle you are using for this

this next one is VERY important.

leader: at this point you name if you want to be leader or not. we can NOT have all leaders so right now decide if you can handle being in charge of 10- people. all you have to put on this part is "yes" or "no".

if there is anything you do not understand about this PM me on here and i will explain.

the profiles are closed on the 13th.
if you do not have a profile in by then you are taken off of the list of people who can join.
if you have a good reason you could not do it i will excuse you and you will be able to stay on the list and turn in your profile late.

if you wish yo drop out you are fully able to do that. but you have to do it by the 20th otherwise the whole idea will go down the shitter.
sooo get to brainstorming

oh wait one more thing! there are some rules..now many..but some
1. your character must NOT be overpowered. they can be strong and have some skills to begin with but they cant be masters of everything ever. even the thing they are good at

2. a do not make your character profile OVERLY long. im sure not everyone wants to read on forever about it so explain about your character but dont go over the top.

and 3. i am changing the idea of the generator. we will make up out own titles and land name cuz it isnt that "random" really.

Title: Soilder of Insanity

Bio: You are KEN you sit in your messy snd beat up room on this day throwing knifes into the wall as you normally do. You have a
varity of intrests such as COMIC BOOKS, GUNS, SWORDS and STABBY THINGS. Today is a very special day, as your SISTER is out and
you have the house to yourself, you think that youll have some fun killing small animals in your yard. You absoutly LOVE
killing things, it is so fun. Enough of your psycopathic dreams. You have work to do.

Modus: Queue

Guardian: Sister, one of the most batshit insane persons in the world, even more insane than you, She sets things on fire and kills kittens. You guess thats where that whole insanity thing came from.

Strife: Pistolkind, Bladekind, Riflekind

Chumhandle: diehardPsychopath

Leader: No

[magmaExploiter]

Your name is LANCE PROWELL.

You have a strong liking for VIDEO GAMES, especially CLASSICS and REALLY OLD GAMES NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD OF. You have a RATHER SHORT ATTENTION SPAN, and are EASILY DISTRACTED from your current tasks. You just cannot keep playing a game without getting bored of it eventually.

You love to MESS WITH PEOPLE. Once you figure out how to press someone's buttons, you will EXPLOIT the knowledge when they annoy you to score SICK BURNS that only heat equal to that of MAGMA would accomplish. You don't succeed often.

You are fond of GEOLOGY, and you aspire to be an EXPERT WEAPONSMITH. Your room is littered with SCRAP METAL and ROUGHLY-CRAFTED BLADES because of this.

You also own a fedora, which pretty much kicks ass. You wear it on random occasions just for the hell of it.

Your chumhandle is magmaExploiter, named after common behavior among most people who play one of your favorite games.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Land of Ash and Mountains

Title: Baron of Steel

Guardian: Father. Cracks terrible jokes all day, every day. Works a long shift that takes up most of the day, giving you peace until about 6 to 7 P.M.

Strife Specibus: 2xpolearmKind

Fetch Modus: Switched to Stack for shits and giggles after getting bored with your old Duck Hunt modus.

Chumhandle: magmaExploiter

Leader: No

[noSense]

You’re name is NOAH WALSH. You have a talent for hunting and you tend to hunt with a variety of BLADES. Because of this, you obviously use BLADEKIND in your Strife Specibus. This does not mean your only talent and interest is hunting. You have a love for POPULAR CULTURE. Other things you like doing include BEING A NINJA. Because of your Ninja Self Training, you also like to use VARIOUS THROWING IMPLEMENTS, specifically NINJA THROWING STARS. Being a Ninja is really how you survive, anyway, being far away that from society. Not that you’re the only one who provides for you. You also live for VIDEO GAMES, and you love to write.

You’re guardian is your brother NATHAN WALSH. He’s a farmer and an engineer. He’s been very distant from you, however, and you always wished he’d be closer. He doesn’t seem to be there often enough.

Anyway, your FETCH MODUS is set to MICROGAMES. Ala Wario-Ware and Mario Party, you must complete a certain amount of Micro Games at a certain difficulty to retrieve your items.

Your chumhandle is soulShadey, after the main character of a group project you and some friends have been writing. You can say that you’re advertising the project, but no, rather, Shadey is you. In your dreams, you are Shadey.

No these friends are not important, and you’ll likely never meet them.

---

Clarification purposes/Things One wouldn't know about the character during an intro sequence:

Strife Specibus: Bladekind, Thrownkind(?)

Modus: Microgames

Handle: soulShadey

Guardian: Brother

Title: Rogue of Stealth

Land: Land of Pathways and Mountain Dew

Can be a leader? Yes

[radicalapologist]

Name: Zachary Spencer

Title: Protector of Matter

Land: Land of Steel and Space

Bio: Your name is ZACHARY. You do NOT have any cakes laying around but you DO have a good number of interests. Most of these interests include being a huge nerd. You enjoy VISUAL NOVELS involving SUPER HEROES, in fact there is almost always a litter of comics you have read over your bedroom floor. You also enjoy A VIDEO GAME OR TWO. you love a good adventure game more then anything else and you recently came in possession of the "ADVENTURE GAME OF THE MILLENNIUM". You, despite being very easy to get along with, have a reputation for being SARCASTIC at the worst times, leading you into bouts of saying sorry to your friends. You also try your damnest to be an ARTIST and you draw very often...you are awful at it frankly, but, eh, one can DREAM

Guardian: Your GUARDIAN is your MOTHER who has a thing for BLADES and OTHER POINTY OBJECTS. She has the same problem with sarcasm, so much that sometimes you cant even tell if she is being sarcastic or not to begin with. You can not tell if this is because she is just to good at it or if she is piss poor at it.

strifekind: x2shoekind

modus: pictionary

chumhandle: radicalApologist

leader: yes

David Kevorkian
Land of Lions and Oases
Doctor of Blood
Your name is DAVID KEVORKIAN. You live in a MODERATELY SIZED HOUSE with an unfinished attic. While you’re supposed to spend time in your ROOM, your DAD and you put all your SUPPLIES in the STUFFY ATTIC so you SLEEP AND PASS ALL YOUR TIME in there. You take pride in the TWO THINGS that people notice about your DAD, you are GERMAN, and that he’s a DOCTOR. A quite SUCCESSFULL one at that, he works from when you leave for SCHOOL to about DINNER. time. Now that it’s SUMMER BREAK though you spend MORE TIME with him, since he has SHORTER HOURS.
You PASS YOUR TIME up there by reading your father’s UNSUCCESSFUL novels about MEDICAL FACTS. He wrote them about TWENTY YEARS ago but he was losing so much MONEY he never wrote more than four. They were RATHER LONG, and since you only took interest in his PROFESSION about a year and a half ago you’ve only made it about HALF WAY through the SECOND one. You also tinker with MEDICAL ITEMS when your dad is GONE, and surely won’t know, but when he’s up taking notes on STRANGE DISCOVERIES in the ATTIC, which almost NEVER happens, or sometimes you won’t even risk it when he’s DOWNSTAIRS, you play some SILLY GAMES like OPERATION. These times pass by QUICKLY because even now in the SUMMER he works a LOT. Being a doctor better be good like THESE BOOKS are saying because YOU WOULD HATE to work as much as he does. You have some OTHER INTERESTS such as LIONS, you just can't find something to dislike of the MAJESTIC CREATURES. Infact you have BEGGED your dad TO TAKE YOU on a SAFARI TOUR.
Guardian: Dr. Kevorkian, cliche doctor with grey showing in his black hair, gone most of the day.

Name: Jacob Kampilan

Land: Land of Beats and Cobalt

Title: Knight of Raves

Bio: Your name is JACOB KAMPILAN. You have a variety of INTERESTS. You have a slight OBSESSION WITH SWORDS, to the point of having SEVERAL STREWN AROUND YOUR HOUSE. Which, by the way, is of a LARGE PERSUASION. Your FATHER however keeps you from owing anything potentially dangerous, so they are all made of WOOD AND/OR PLASTIC.

You pride yourself on your ability to EASILY CHANGE YOUR PERSONALITY FOR THE SITUATION. Around people you don't like you are often COLD AND FRUSTRATED, however around people you like you are often HAPPY AND WHIMSICAL. The only thing holding them all together is that you OVERALL DO NOT CARE ABOUT A WHOLE LOT. You very rarely get stressed. In fact, it has probably been SEVERAL YEARS since you have last gotten worked up about something. You also try to be VERY INTROSPECTIVE about yourself, and attempt to find reason behind everything you do. You attempt to fit into a PERSONA OF A DARK AND SHADY PERSON, however you are COMPLETELY AWARE that THIS IS NOT THE CASE, and DO NOT CARE.

Your opinion of yourself is often seen as changing easily like some bipolar idiot, however this is often JUST TO MESS WITH PEOPLE. You enjoy making people feel bad for you. In reality, you are PRETTY OKAY WITH YOURSELF. You realize that you are good at some things and not at others.

You have a reputation for NOT BEING VERY SENSITIVE ABOUT THINGS. You very much dislike people complaining about little things, and are often VERY CYNICAL to people who do so.

You tend to enjoy A WIDE VARIETY OF MUSIC, however tend to stay away from WHAT IS POPULAR. As a general rule you are VERY ASOCIAL AND PREFER TO STAY AWAY FROM PEOPLE YOU DO NOT LIKE.

You are an avid player of VIDEO GAMES, however your opinions on them tend to be shaped by the opinions of WHOEVER IS MOST INTELLIGENT IN THE ROOM. As a general rule your opinions are not formed from yourself but from others. You are aware of this, however DO NOT CARE. You don't care about a lot of things.

Modus: Your love of VIDEO GAMES has made you acquire the MEMORY CARD modus. This modus is similar to the ARRAY modus, however you must scroll through the items in it individually and items may take some time to fully materialize. The only reason you use this is that it allows you to REMOVE YOUR SYLLADEX, KEEPING ALL OLD ITEMS WITHIN THE MODUS. This is great for keeping item sets on the go.

Guardian: Father, a nice but otherwise inattentive obese man.

Strife: Bladekind

Chumhandle: shadowOriginator

Leader: No

[starrywarrior]

>Be the quixotic comic book nerd

Your name is MICHAEL NOBEL. You arer almost 19 years old. You have a great amount of interests, on account of your INABILITY TO FOCUS ON ONE THING AT A TIME. It makes everyone quite cross with you almost all the time.

In particular, your favorite interest is PERUSING ILLUSTRATED STORIES PRESENTED AS SEQUENTIAL ART. As such, you have set your Fetch Modi to Comic Modus, in which you FLIP THROUGH YOUR SYLLADEX to the splash page containing your item of choice. Very difficult to weaponize, but easy to use, especially for one as quick eyed as you, in spite of your blurry nearsightedness.

You also enjoy MUSICAL THEATRE and Choirs, but your voice is very loud to everyone but yourself.

Unfortunately, your Guardians are extremely non violent, so the only Strife Specibus you can get your hands on is KEYBLADEKIND, a replica wooden weapon of a sword used in ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE FICTIONAL UNIVERSES.

This game series and every other fiction you have studied in your life have all had a profound effect on your mind, making it difficult to distinguish between REALITY AND FANTASY, with a given value of each. One of the few genres you dislike is horror, given your previously mentioned delusional episodes.

You tend to be very SHORT TEMPERED, a habit developed from years of pent up aggression and lack of release. You like to pretend you are a cryptic mentor figure like THE HEROES YOU WORSHIP, but people think you're a tool as a result.

Your chumhandle is starryWarrior, a permutation of a superhero name from a SERIES OF TELEVISION SHOWS INVOLVING ARMORED WARRIORS WITH POWERS AND ABILITIES FAR DIFFERENT FROM THE NORM. In accordance to that love, you usually cloak your smilies in a visor/mask as such: D/

In your SBURB session, you will become the RANGER OF LOVE, sentinel of the Land of Forest and Light.

Leader: No

[radicalapologist]

quick note: you can change anything about your character UP TO the night of 10/13/10. any changes after that point will be rejected and i will ask for you to put it back to how it was.
