So as of now it's a:
1. More people apply
2. Sort them into houses
3. Map of city/houses
Then we get to the actual IC, corrects?

Yup. I may start sorting some houses now. I can always re-arrange if needed before the IC starts

Yeah, I guess the more you get done ahead of time, the less you have to do to start up the IC.

It also may be good to start on the map so you can know where the houses are. It sounds from the bios of some of these characters that a lot of them would be focused around the downtown area. So you could safely focus the map either around just downtown, or downtown plus some other part of the city. Also, you would have to decide whether to map just the immediate area around the houses or the entire neighborhood/city at once. Personally I would map the city on a broader scale and just mark point of interest that can be looted.

You should make an archive so it'd be easier for us to view the accepted character applications.

Agreed. Especially in an RP like this it's important to know where characters are coming from and everything. (and it's kinda fun to read people's bios)

Oh god...I have a character from an RP with a friend I'm going to throw in this, but all I ever really established was her personality. And now my brains crapping out on how to establish her further :P

She was an assistant for someone in the RP with a friend, but he was like, an illegal dealer of weapons, drugs, ect, ect....Sooo yeah, there's obviously going to be a change there. I might still make her an assistant, but I have no idea what/who she was an assistant for.

My character was the secretary/assistant to a city official... I would say local government is a good option.

Nah. I get it. I was just saying that being the assistant to a local government person may be a good idea. Possibly an assistant to a president of some company then? Possibly a lawyers secretary?

To get everyone in the spirit, here's a pleasant little video that came out last June to advertise the game, where you actually make a choice at the end. And man, is it fun to watch. If you're a complete sadist, that is.

Ah yes, the depressingness of that game. I love it

I think I managed to save her and survive once. Because I had a shotgun or something. I don't remember.

It is possible, if you can manage to sneak up on the soldier without him noticing.

Mother Knows Best State

Postby Ava Ire » Mon Sep 14, 2015 5:22 am

App

Name: Amelia Rejewski
Age: 27
Appearance: Amelia is a girl of slim build. She never was very athletic, much to the dismay of her mother. Amelia has a round, almost childish face with grey eyes and rosy cheeks. Her hair is a dark blond, and her skin is pale. She comes at around 5'6 ft tall.
Sex: Female
Ethnicity: Polish-Vlavidonian
Occupation: Schoolteacher, teaches Polish.
Skills:
-Fluent in speaking both Polish and Vlavidonian
-Able to handle situations involving high levels of stress
Weaknesses:
-Not very strong physically.
-Generally trusting of others.
Personal Items: Nothing particularly noteworthy. Her bookbag. A picture of her family. Bottled water. A journal and a pen.
Bio: Amelia was born to two affluent Polish parents during 1968, in Warsaw. When Amelia was 7, her parents divorced. Her father remarried with a Vlavidonian woman, and in 1975 they moved to the Vlavidonian SSR.

Growing up in the USSR, Amelia at first felt very much like an unwelcome foreigner. In order to get her involved in a hobby, Amelia's new mother encouraged her to take up ballet dancing. Amelia was decent at it, but never took much interest as she got older. Amelia preferred to stay home and write stories, much to her mother's chagrin.

Graduating from high school, Amelia attended the University of Brestyiv. She became a schoolteacher in Brestyiv, teaching Polish to Vlavidonian elementary students. However, Vlavidonia fell into civil war. Her school was destroyed by rebel shellfire.

With her life fallen apart, Amelia thought it best to move back to Poland to escape the warfare. But Brestyiv is now under siege. And she is trapped.

I promise to finish Anna ( minus the gun, since popular opinion is that guns are banned). Though I've survived a cable provider fail, which means smartphones in an internet cafe.
This nation is modeled on being my absolute worst dystopia imaginable. In no way do the Annihilators reflect my opinions, in fact I am totally against almost every single policy they enact.
I support insanely high tax rates, do you?

I honestly really like to write issues.

Ah, fun.

We had our Internet (And phone) out for days once due to copper wire theft, and our provider gave us TERRIBLE updates on when it would be back. It's like they had no clue. They told us it would be back tomorrow on one day, and about an hour at most later, our mom calls us and says that it is back up.

I was debating that. It would probably be good, but kinda hard. I'm better at coming up with stuff like that as we go.
