Revolution RP 2 Idea and Sign-Ups

[Leslie]

The year is 2030. 15 years ago, the entirety of the power throughout the world had mysteriously gone out one day, never to come on again. It shut down all cars, airplanes, trains, everything that had a motor of some sort. As you could probably expect, this lead to the world changing for the worst. People started to kill each other for things as simple as bottled water or crackers, gangs formed and had more influence than ever, whole cities ruled by rebels or militia, governments forming all over the place in different parts of the country, and just a general dangerous atmosphere all over the place. People lost loved ones, did things they never imagined themselves doing, went crazy, and so on. It was all a big mess.

However, recently there have been rumors that there is some device out there somewhere in the United States that will kickstart the power back on. Maybe not all of it, but give everyone the means to get it going all over the place again. Nobody truly knows its location, or at least most people don't think anyone does, but people from all over the place have started to kill even more for it and desperately try to go out and find it. Mostly because a lot of places knew it could give them huge influence and power over the entire place, which could be a good or bad thing, and at this point, it was much more likely to be a bad thing.

Our characters will end up meeting each other in the city of San Francisco, run by the Hoover Hegemony. This is where they will end up banding up together to go and try to find this so-called power device, before anyone bad gets a hold of it. It was a rather far stretch for them to achieve this, but for the good of the many. In fact, someone in particular was offering the job to people who wanted to do it. Of course, anyone could join and they could in fact be people who want it for their own personal gain, which is exactly why he will be investigating the people joining closely before accepting them onto the mission. This is where the main journey will begin...

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: A Iphone, a flashlight, a lighter and a pack of cigarettes.
Weapons: A Crossbow, a few throwy things, and a double blade
Bio: Cathal was born in Ireland, and still technically lives there, if only he had a way to get there. When he was four, he left Ireland to visit some family in America, taking a plane there with a family friend. Not long after they had arrived, all the power went out, everywhere. He didn't really understand what was happening at the time, but the family friend took him out of the city to a smaller community. They stayed there for a while, until Cathal was 10, but the community was attacked. They stood no chance against the bandits, and the family friend told Cathal to run, so he did, taking his best friend with him. Once they were a safe distance away, they stopped running, wondering what had happened to the rest of the town. Were they dead? Had others escaped? They decided that they would go back and investigate the next morning. When they did, they found that the bandits had taken the town for themselves, rather then robbing and leaving. Cathal wanted to mount a rescue mission, to see if anyone was alive, to see if his family friend, who had been like a mom to him in the last years, was alive, but his friend stopped him. She told him that two kids against a group of bandits would just get them killed, and that they would have wanted them to live. And so they did. They traveled around, trying to find somewhere safe to live, but never quite managed it, so they stayed on the move. One day when he was 15 they attacked a small bandit camp, though it didn't all go to plan. Their plan had originally been to take out the guards and then steal the bandits weapons, but they ended up alerting the whole camp....And killing them all. Cathal felt a little bad about this, but he knew they were bad people anyway. It was there that he acquired his weapons. After that, they continued to wander. Once day, when he was 19, he heard about something that might get the power back on, and he didn't want to miss the chance to find it and use it for good. After 15 years, he hardly remembered his parents, and he wanted to see them again very badly, and he couldn't do that without power. He heard about someone hiring people to search for the thing, so he and his friend decided to sign up.
Extras: He has a rather thick Irish accent. Like the younger guy in this clip www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzB6G3u-MHU

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: A necklace with a pendant with two pictures in it. One with him and his mom, and one with him and his girlfriend. His chain mail and cloak, because apparently he's slightly strange.
Weapons: Two blades
Bio: Nicholas was a pretty normal kid before the power outage. He went to school, did his homework, all the stuff normal kids do. He had always been the quiet type, and got bullied a lot for it. He was always polite and reserved. One day, when he was ten, he was waiting for his parents to come home from a trip on a plane, but then the power went out, and the planes crashed. Though they didn't just fall out of the sky and defy physics, the plane his parents were on crash-landed into a building, with no survivors. It took him a while to accept this, as his neighbor took him out of town, despite his protests and insistence that they wouldn't eave him, that if he left they wouldn't know where to find him. Eventually he accepted that they were gone, and went into a sort of state of depression, but it didn't last long. When he was 16 he met a girl and fell in love. They stayed in a town for a while, until one day she was caught by a bandit while out hunting and killed. He was 20 at the time. He had been with her, and the bandits took him to use as their slave, basically. They bullied him and abused him, until, at the age of 23 he finally broke. He managed to kill them and escape, but he was changed now. He swore that he would never again have to endure abuse at the hands of those who thought they were better. He learned to fight, and eventually heard of a device that could get the power back on. He imagined how different things would be for him if he had that. He would never again be the underdog. Just someone to use and abuse as it suited people. He then planned how to find it and get ahold of it for himself. He then heard of a group who were going to look for it. He figured that they were his best bet.
Extras: He may act like a nice guy, but don't believe it. He's a little messed up in the head.

Application
Name: Leroy Saetre
Age: 35
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: A quiver with multiple types of arrows.
Weapons: A sword, a bow and a hangun, which he hides in the back of his pants and doesn't use often, due to lack of ammo, though he has a decent amount.
Bio: Leroy was a police officer before the blackout. He loved his job of helping people and saving lives, punishing bad people. When the blackout happened, he had been chasing a murderer, who managed to escape due to Leroy's flashlight burning out. Leroy was always a talented marksman, and he used that to his advantage to survive. He got ahold of a bow and some arrows, which he modified for different uses, such as rope arrows, water arrows, poison arrows, ect. One day while he was out scavenging, he came across a girl who was also scavenging, and they became fast friends. Eventually they fell in love, but it didn't last. She lead him into a trap, which nearly killed him. He managed to survive the attack, but was left with no food or medicine to mend his wounds. Despite that, he managed to survive, but his heart was turned cold. Despite his cold heart, however, he was never evil. He hated anyone who would hurt innocents, and would defend them sometimes, usually leaving right afterwards. When he heard of the device to turn on the power, he decided he would join the group to find it, to prevent it from getting in the wrong hands.
Extras: He may end up being a leader type of the group, as well as the father figure to some of the younger members, as he is very protective of people he cares about.

Application
Name: Moragan Mcgrath
Age: 20
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: Ipod, poison whiskey, various flasks of poison.
Weapons: A sword which is normally dipped in poison.
Bio: Moragan lived in a small community, which after the blackout became kind of a safe haven for people. She had been five when it went out, and was homeschooled beforehand. She had taken lessons in sword fighting when she was young. When the power went out, she continued her lessons the best she could. One day a young Irish boy cam to their town, about a year after the blackout. They became fast friends. When she was 11, their town was attacked, and she and the Irish boy ran away, returning the next day to find her home ravaged and run by bandits. After that they traveled, trying to find somewhere to fit in, but never quite managed it. Shortly after they had left, she had a sort of depression state due to her parents likely being dead, but she got over it, and was happy to have the Irish boy, as they had been basically childhood friends. She was a bit concerned about him after the attack on the bandit camp, as he seemed troubled about it, but he quickly got over it, accepting that if they were to survive, killing would be necessary at times. When she was 20, they found out about something that might get the power back on. She saw the hope that maybe if they found it, he would be able to get back to his parents, if they were even alive. Even though he didn't mention it, she knew he wanted to use it to help people, too, and that's why she agreed to go with him to join the group. That, and they had been a team through this whole thing, she wasn't about to leave him now.
Extras:

Application
Name: Josh Spiradakos
Age: 12
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: A half pendant on a chain on his necklace. Car keys that they kept for sentimental reasons after their parents died.
Weapons: A claw glove, a wrist-mounted crossbow with poisoned bolts and a thin sword.
Bio: Josh and Aisha were born four years after the blackout. They grew up in a somewhat rough community, their parents usually having to fight for food or supplies. From a young age they were taught to defend themselves. Josh had always taken to the training more then Aisha. She held on to some innocence, but Josh, not so much. His first kill was when he was 7, when Aisha had run into some trouble and some creep tried to hurt her. Josh killed him, and the guys friends freaked and ran. Josh was emotionless through this, knowing he had no other choice. This was the world he lived in, the community he lived in. He would defend his family, no matter what the cost. When he went home, his parents were appalled, but they understood. They hated that this was the world that their kids had to grow up in, to turn their seven year old son into someone who could kill without being messed up from it. Josh had always been...different. He wore masks and hoods, he was quiet, reserved, hardly talking to anyone but his family, especially his sister. He had always liked the art of sword fighting and marksmanship. Things that interested most kids, such as basketball and other games, held no interest for him. One day, when the twins were 8, things went to hell in their little community. It started with a simple fight over food, but it escalated into a fight between the more gang like groups, before it turned into all-out chaos. People started killing people who weren't even involved in it. Josh fought to defend his family, killing two people before he was overwhelmed. He managed to escape with Aisha, at the insistence of their parents to get away, that they would hold them off. They all knew that they wouldn't last very long, but they left, with some reluctance. They ran into the woods and never looked back, for they knew there was nothing left for them there. They traveled for a while, Josh fighting off any threats. They never once left each others side. Josh was the fighter, while Aisha usually sought more peaceful solutions. They are both mature for their age, in some ways. She was more social, and he let her do the talking. A year ago they had heard about a device that could get a power back on, and they decided to look for it, just the two of them, side-by-side forever. A year later, then came to San Francisco and heard about the group who were going to look for the device, and decided to join up. They were prepared to prove themselves if needed, seeing as they were only 12
Extras: He has a twin sister, Aisha.

Characters
Name: Electra Baxter
Age: 16
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: Her backpack, which has a ton of various supplies for survival. This is also where her grenade and flashbang are currently at. From the people who had known her, which isn't much, they knew she always had a lot of strange things in her backpack.
Weapons: A Dragunov Sniper Rifle that she has never told anybody how exactly she got a hold of such a weapon, which is slung over her shoulder. It also has a rather nice scope on it. As far as ammo goes, she only has one magazine left, which only has 7 shots left in it. She wants to find more ammo but Sniper Rifle ammo is even harder to find then normal ammo. Her common close-up weapon is her short sword, but she also has a dagger for even more up close encounters. In her backpack is a grenade and a flashbang that she got off of someone she had killed. And her last weapon is your every day standard handgun she carries in a holster on her belt with all the other crap that is apparently on her belt. This weapon only has 10 shots left in it right now.
Bio: Her life was surprisingly normal for most of it. The village she lived in with her parents and others took care of each other as if they were all one big family, and they worked together to get food, make gardens, protect themselves, and so on. While they had some skirmishes with people, they managed to still remain safe and with no problems for a surprisingly long time. That was until she hit the age of 14. At that age a big group of gang members raided their village, killing people, burning down buildings, stealing peoples things, and as far as she knew, possibly raping people. The once peaceful village was now in complete chaos, and her family told her to run, which she did. Her family tried to, too, but they didn't make it, and she heard the screams of her family as she ran away. But something made her hold onto hope that her family was still alive, but it was too dangerous for her to fight the gang at that point in her life with her skill level during the raid, so she couldn't heriocally try and save them.

So, her life ended up in a completely new direction. She walked, and walked, surviving, killing, and so on for 2 years. Half the time she didn't even know what she was fighting for and why she was continuing onwards. Something made her feel like there was the possibility of her family still being alive. But the main thing was that she wanted to get revenge. To get revenge on the gang that had done this to her family. But she had no idea where they were located or how often they moved, and she never managed to find their base, so she just walked across the entire U.S. Throughout this long journey, so many things had happened. She killed her first man, and then went on to kill up to about 104 people, at least. She had gotten herself in bad situations, broke into major bases for supplies, stole a sniper rifle, became a brutal killer and at times found herself being cold hearted, and so much more that she may eventually tell someone in the RP. Maybe.
Extras: She can be a complicated one to understand her reasoning behind things at times. Her height is 5'6

Name: Carrie Nieboer
Age: 18
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: Other then a backpack with stuff in it, nothing really noteworthy at all.
Weapons: Her main weapon is a short bow, and arrows obviously. Beyond that she has a small blade. This is all of her weapons right now.
Bio: Carrie was born three years before the lights all shut off, and she barely even remembers what exactly was going on those first few days. Or years, for that matter. Her parents had stayed with her until she was about 6, and then they had left her with a group of people as if she was just some sort of disposable object. This, as expected, bothered her quite a bit for a while. But the group was nice enough to take her in and protect her for a long time. She never got really overly attached to anyone in particular in the group, just the group itself. She stayed here until she was about 12. And while she has been out in the dangers of the world, she has never really experienced anything terrible, surprising. There have been the iffy moments and some mildly unpleasant things, but the group tended to keep her from seeing it. Only once or twice did the group actually have to kill anyone, to her surprise and to her relief.

But when she turned 12 the group was in San Fransisco, and told her to stay there while they went out to do some business, and despite the fact they had taken her in just like that when she was 6, she felt as if they decided she had become a nuisance to them and slowed them down, so now they found a good excuse to ditch her somewhere and leave. The group never came back, either.

So for the next 6 years she mostly lived in San Francisco, never really finding anyone who truly wanted to take her in anymore and keep her as their own. There were times when she stayed at places for a while, and other times when she just lived on the streets. During this time she worked hard to learn archery, so she could hunt for herself if she had to and to defend herself. She also eventually found herself a small blade for protection.

And now she found the opportunity to do something useful with her skills and life, and she decided to take it.
Extras: She feels like she will never have someone that truly loves her or truly love someone else, because she had felt abandoned and neglected so much in her life. Her height is 5'4

Name: Aisha Spiradakos
Age: 12
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: Aisha has a half pendant like Josh as well, which looks like they could practically connect to each other. Along with that, she also has keys, but her mothers instead of like with Josh who has his fathers. It is sort of their way to have SOMETHING to remember their parents, even if it is a strange thing to pick to remember them. And she also has a backpack for carrying things. Like the keys, for example
Weapons: A retractable claw thingy as one of her weapons. Other then that, she has a hidden blade on her left arm for the possibility of more stealthy attacks, and throwing knives for long-ranged attacks.
Bio: Josh and Aisha were born four years after the blackout. They grew up in a somewhat rough community, their parents usually having to fight for food or supplies. From a young age they were taught to defend themselves. Her brother had learned the training more then she had. She had done some, but not nearly as much as he has.

Then one day his training came into rather good use. This creepy man had tried to hurt her when she was 7, and she felt extremely terrified. But her brother was there for her as he always had been there for her, and he killed the man, saving her and making the creeps friends run off. While it was horrific what he had to do, she was thankful, and that day she had found herself feeling closer to her brother then ever before.

Like her twin brother, Aisha was rather different from most of the kids her age, or most people in general. But this was mostly because her style of clothes to wear were rather different then most peoples, though her personality could definitely be unique at times as well. While her brother was the quiet one, she had learned how to communicate to people well. She was social, talkative, observant, and was known to be a fairly good planner and thinker for her age. She seemed to have quite the imagination at the right moment, too. In fact, her imagination is what kept her entertained most of the time, since she found a lot of normal activities people did to keep entertained boring.

One day, when the twins were 8, things went to hell in their little community. It started with a simple fight over food, but it escalated into a fight between the more gang like groups, before it turned into all-out chaos. People started killing people who weren't even involved in it. Josh fought to defend his family, killing two people before he was overwhelmed. He managed to escape with Aisha, at the insistence of their parents to get away, that they would hold them off. They all knew that they wouldn't last very long, but they left, with some reluctance. They ran into the woods and never looked back, for they knew there was nothing left for them there. They traveled for a while, Josh fighting off any threats to them. They never once left each others side. Josh was the fighter, while Aisha usually sought more peaceful solutions.

As would be expected from an 8-year old who had just witnessed a traumatic situation and knew that her parents were very likely to be dead, she was pretty messed up about this for quite some time afterwards, but her twin brother kept her in check and made sure her mindset remained at least mostly stable. Eventually she got out of the worst part of being stuck in that mindset, though she still had her parents on her mind here and there. All thanks to the help of her brother. If her brother ever died in a fight, she would probably give up at that point, or at least sure as hell feel like it, because her brother was the main person who kept her going, who kept her fighting for surival in this cruel world.

A year ago they had heard about a device that could get the power back on, and they decided to look for it, just the two of them, side-by-side forever. A year later, they came to San Francisco and heard about the group who were going to look for the device, and decided to join up. They were prepared to prove themselves if needed, seeing as they were only 12
