Humanity Never Learns: A Cyberpunk Character RP [OOC/OPEN]

[Ghondra]

Well I did know who you were Its just that I thought you were someone else entirely.

Right, I must look like so many people on the internet.

Cackle and Jordslag aren't exactly similar names. Though I was tipped off of who you were because you called me Ghondie

Man, it is impossible to find casual Cyberpunk clothing. Like, everyone in the pictures I'm seeing looks like they're ready to go start a fight and kill someone. The closest thing to "casual" I have found might be Cybergoth, although Cyber*punk* has shown off a few things that might be able to double for combat and casual, namely a few dresses that look barely like clothing, some skintight suits, and arguably the two pictures I had in my app.

Nation Name: Sanabel
Character Name: Howard Crane Foucault III
Nationality: North American, but it doesn't much matter.
Affiliation:
Gender: Male
Age: 156
Species: Genetic Augmented Human
Appearance: WIP.
Personality: WIP.
Weapons: His mind. Relies on his countless henchmen and operatives, and those of the Conspiracy to do his bidding. Why should he get his hands dirty?
Strengths: Manipulation. He is the puppet master, he is God. At least in his own mind, though it certainly seems so with the power he has built for himself. Manipulation, intellect, and of course his modifications all assist in this. Aside from this, he's quite the charmer.
Weaknesses: His hubris is crushing, as is his lust for power at any cost. Will his insatiable thirst be his downfall?
Profession: Controls many a shell company, is the majority shareholder of quite a few, and is the puppet master for countless political and economic figures around the world. Aside from that he is a prominent member of The Conspiracy, and is the de facto leader of the Cleanse Faction.
Character History: Wip.
Character's Role in the Plot: MAJOR member of the conspiracy, and the plot as a whole with his Godlike power. Also is the leader of the Cleanse Faction.

WIP! Will be done within the evening.

It'd be rather hard for him to be 156, considering the game starts in 2118, and the first Genetically Augmented Human was born in 2036. Please do fix that. Also, what 'Godlike' power does he have?

Other than that, looking good so far.

I personally thought it was the first genetically altered human was born in 2032, but those already around had already been 'splicing' their genes ever since the technology was first developed.

People who were born as Baseline humans could get Gene Therapy and Renewal which indefinitely extends their lifetimes and enhances their natural abilities, but that is the extent of their powers.

Fair enough, I'll change the age. Though I was intending for his genetic modifications to have occurred after his birth, even if it is not available for the layman. I'd imagine he would have access to that kind of technology, given his position. Though, if need be, I can have him born after 2032.

I haven't gotten to the part of the app where I reveal that. But as previously stated, he has the ability to shapeshift into other people, as well as immortality, and perhaps the release of some kind of pheromone aiding in persuasion of the weak. But the real godlike power is not godlike in the literal sense, rather it is godlike in the figurative sense, with his immense control over the global political arena and global economy on all levels.

tbf my character is 116.

Anywho, how should I introduce Ryan into the plot?

[Stadenwick]

My IC post finally up!

[Sanabel]

Hmm, what should I use for a picture...

[The Enclave Government]

Man, it is impossible to find casual Cyberpunk clothing. Like, everyone in the pictures I'm seeing looks like they're ready to go start a fight and kill someone. The closest thing to "casual" I have found might be Cybergoth, although Cyber*punk* has shown off a few things that might be able to double for combat and casual, namely a few dresses that look barely like clothing, some skintight suits, and arguably the two pictures I had in my app.

Prussian military dress never goes out of style.

[Greater Istanistan]

Yo sorry for sodding off for a while, but I've been writing exams. I have more.

Only losers actually study, geez.

Immortality in that he can't age, or immortality in that he can't be killed, period?

Its funny I was just about to TG some of the people who were missing from the RP for a while.

Age, probably. I doubt anything could do the latter.

I think the former. I wouldn't allow a character with the latter anyways, too OP.

He can be killed. But would otherwise live forever, doesn't age.

Got it, thanks for clearing that up. That is allowed.

Yep. Anybody can be killed in this RP; just don't kill a player character without the player's permission.

Exactly what I was going for. I think a lot of player characters are gonna die GoT style in this RP, at least that's the objective

Speak of the devil and all, eh? Regardless, I'm gonna take a break tonight and bang off an opening post. Maybe plot to do another character grievous harm? Lol. Whatever, it's gonna be cool.

[Sanabel]

My main goal is to become the main antagonist of the RP.

[Lunas Legion]

Nation Name: Lunas Legion
Character Name: Erika Von Reinach
Nationality: German (European Federation)
Affiliation: 'The Conspiracy', Control Faction
Gender: Female
Age: 86
Species: Genetically Augmented Human
Appearance: Here.
Personality: Erika is a calm, careful and collected individual, rarely letting emotion beyond simple disdain show to others. Arrogant if pressed right, with a colossal ego. Extremely narcissistic, athiestic and materialistic. Often prone to acts of cowardliness if backed into a corner.
Weapons: Erika rarely wields weapons, as in her opinion, if she has to fight, she's already lost the war. However, she carries an experimental 'plasma revolver' for personal defence, which can be overloaded to act as a one-use powerful grenade.
Strengths: Erika has phenomenal resources as head of the Reinach Conglomerate, one of the largest genetic research corporations in the world, and has been genetically modified extensively, including near-immortality, heightened senses and heightened reaction speed.
Weaknesses: Erika, for all her genetic modifications, is not a fighter. In any fair one on one firefight against a non-baseline human, she will lose as a matter of when, not if. Obviously, she tries not to get into fair fights, or fights at all for that matter.
Profession: Head of the Reinach Conglomerate.
Character History: Erika was born in 2032 in Leipzig, Germany, to a pair of biology professors, Klein and Sabine Von Reinach. They played a vital role in the initial advances caused by the Absolution's crash, pioneering the use of genetic modification. Erika was one of their first cases, narrowly missing out on being the first genetically-modified baby to be born by a few weeks.

Their work led to the founding of the Reinach Conglomerate, which became one of the leading companies for genetic augmentation. This position led them to become one of the founding members of The Conspiracy, believing that humanity needed to be saved from itself through adversity; namely, the removal of the crutch of technology. They were later killed during an attack by religion-motivated naturalists when she was 16, and after their death Erika filled their place in The Conspiracy's council.

As a member of The Conspiracy, Erika was responsible for it's European operations, as well as the majority of it's Research and Development personnel, although the majority of the funding and resources were provided by others. Although originally continuing her parents ideals of liberating humanity from it's self-induced technological prison, she eventually discarded those ideals in favour of something that appealed far more to her; uniting the planet under herself. She never considered the implausibility of such a task; she was going to do that, by any means necessary, at any cost to everyone else.

Erika  also expanded the Reinach Conglomerate, devouring a wide variety of smaller companies across numerous sectors, while building up her influence within the European Confederation's government via any means available.

The shift towards a more egotistical end goal, combined with the more religious and occult leanings of other members of The Conspiracy, eventually contributed to the formation of the two blocs; Cleanse, and Erika's own 'Control' bloc. Although the two groups remain in tenuous cooperation while the final stages of the plan are put into place, this cooperation is heavily strained.

Character's Role in the Plot: Head of the 'Control' faction of The Conspiracy, de facto 2nd in Command of The Conspiracy
RP Example: You remember me, right? I'll find one if not.
