TGM Survival Horror Spectacular OOC/Signup

Postby The Garbage Men » Sat Oct 31, 2009 4:15 am

The Garbage Men is a large instellar business, It is professional, proud of it's work and has a vast PR campaign. Think of the song ... The Garbage Man Can, and you basically have how the corporation presents itself, doing the grubby jobs that no one else wants to do, do them better and with a smile.

Yet, beneath this facade some darker, sinister elements lurk just below the surface. Just one of these things is a research facility... research into trash slimes. Now domesticated trash slimes can be good companions, wild trash slimes can be quite deadly for those that aren't careful... but imagine this. A Trash Slime that has been poked and proded cut at and all sorts of other things. And here you have the premise for this RP.

A group of people seeking to survive and escape this creature... It won't be easy, and there will be death... but are you willing to pit yourself against a Trash Slime out for revenge? Let's find out.

About the Research Facility:

The Facility is called SCD Research Facility Alpha-5. It is made up of two main sections. Low security and High Security. Each has it's own seperate facilities such as dormitories, food hall, computer systems, ect. The High Security Base is like a Base within a base, it has more security guards, a larger number of identity verification systems and a large variety of access control systems. People in the High Security areas are meant to be totally segregated (apart from common areas) from not only each other but entirely from the Low Security areas. The only people that should cross Low/High security borders are the goods handling people. Goods designated for the High Security area have additional levels of security to ensure that only people in the High Security area that they are meant for can open them. This goes from simple food and general supplies to materials of more... unusual nature.

The facility is run by TGM's Surrepticious Collection Department, that is the covert operations arm of TGM. If there is any operation performed by TGM that needs the Valour of discrection, or is perhaps not quite legal then it's the SCD that does it. In regards to Research Facility Alpha-5, the nature of the research is secret to the utmost, things are being done that should they become known to the general public could severly damage the public image of the corporation and the corporation does whatever it can to make sure its secrets stay that way.

Rules:
  • All characters are to be employees of TGM however they can be based in any nation and would legitimately have the social and cultural awareness of any appopriate nation (ie. All must be TGM employees by name only)
  • Your character can be whatever you can convince me makes sense in this circumstance.
  • Magic or other fantasy elements (including Force users) must be apart of the initial character, and I reserve the right to have systems that make your abilities temporarily not work, depending on the circumstances.
  • Your character may well die, Any situation involving the big bad will result in death unless you can find a way to permanently or temporarily stop it enough for you and the group to escape. (although this may not be the case in all situations)
  • All characters can only have first names (a strange quirk of TGM, only Board members and other special circumstances employees have last names. If you can convince me that your character fits into a special circumstance then I may allow a last name on a specific case-by-case basis.)
  • There will be alot of NPC's. Some will die, others will live. You will not have to face only the Trash Slime but you will have to face NPCs as well.
  • There will be a limited number of slots available to sign up, exact number is unknown but when I close signups, they're closed. You may at this point have your placed on a reserve list if any goes MIA without explanation. The will lose their spot to someone in the reserve list. If some one does go MIA they will be killed off.

Please note, This nation is played by the same person that does TGM. There might be occasions where this nation posts instead of TGM, but do not fear. Just roll with it.

Thank you.

This is Alma, posting with a puppet.

Let's see now....

Name: Angeline
Age: 24
Appearance: 5'6", 143 lbs, caramel complexion, brown hair with auburn highlights
Education: High school GED, college dropout
Abilities: Technopathy, telekinesis, levitation, omnilinguism
Other, non-magical skills: Extremely intelligent, a gifted orator, avid tennis and volleyball player
Short bio: Angeline Marjorie Broussard was born and raised in New Orleans, The Ethereal Crescent. She is a Fourth Generation mutant, meaning that she has four superhuman abilities, listed above. Very intelligent, Angeline was in the top ten percent of her graduating class, and was accepted to the top college in the Crescent; however, she dropped out after giving birth to a child, who died three months later. Despondent and directionless, Angeline secured a job with the largest maintenance company in The Ethereal Crescent, United Cleaners Corporation (UNICCO); after five years of working for low pay and no benefits, she left and got a job with TGM, and has been working for them since (approx. 6 months).

I'll be waiting in line

The Eternal Crescent's character accepted.

OOC: Edited, no substantial changes but re-worded to be much more grammatically correct and to provide some minor additional info.

Background at the Facility:

Despite being a new addition to the TGM 'family' Angeline had been selected to come and work in the SCD Research Facility. Her unique abilities fitted the job requirements for a vacany in the communications office rather well and TGM knows to make the most out of it's employees abilities. The CEO himself, Trevor Desorté had to sign off on her working at the facility declaring that she was not a security risk and all other beauracratic nonses that goes on behind corporate doors. At this moment Angeline had just arrived at the facility and had been taken to where she would stay while working at the facility in the Low Security Personnel Dormatories. As it currently stood she was waiting in her room with rather comfortable bed, a few chairs and a table in what was otherwise a rather stale and personality-less room, waiting for someone to take her to where she would be working and give her a tour of the basic areas of the low security area including the Low Security Personnel Cafeteria.

Name: Patrick
Age: 27
Appearance: 5’11, blond hair, blue eyes, fit.
Education: University
Magical Abilities: None (well, he can make a coin appear from behind someone's ear)
Other skills: Sporty, intelligent, confident (maybe a little too much), quick to learn and good at thinking on his feet (hopefully).
Very Short bio: Patrick finished his university degree and hit a brick wall in his life, as he had no idea what he wanted to do. After moving from job to job, he finally found himself in the position he holds in TGM, how he got there he still does not know, but he’s there and he’s making the most of his time before he (with any luck) moves into a job where he can use his last name. In his free time, he likes to work out, something that he picked up during his time at university, where he was in the rugby team.

Name: SARS-300, "William"
Age: 123
Height: 7'4
Weight: 500 lbs.
Description: SARS-300, who insists on being called William, or Bill, is a sentient humanoid robot, originally built for war. He has also made some modifications to his mind module, giving him an effective IQ of 540, and a total storage capacity of fifty zettabytes. He has built into his chassis a laser beam rifle, a gauss emitter gun, two palm-mounted repulsion beams, and an assortment of knives. He has a tendency for bouts of aggression, and that is mixed with bouts of joviality to create a truly bipolar personality, were he human he would likely be diagnosed with mild schizophrenia.
Bio: After gaining sentience and deserting from the army of his old home William traveled the galaxy looking for work, eventually ending up working at one of the Garbage Men's research facilities, as a janitor. After a while they discovered his true purpose and changed his duties to a combination of security and research, utilizing both his impressive intellect and his impressive combat skills. Though even after his change of duties he never demanded more pay, not understanding that his new job entitled him to it, and is in fact still listed in the work records as a janitor.

Both Characters Accepted!

Patrick's Background at the Facility:

Due to the unusual way Patrick joined the corporation not so much formally but through a kind of Osmosis, when the entire team that Patrick was with got relocated to the Research Facility, Patrick did to. Patrick works in the field of logistics with his friends and now workmates. There had recently been an influx of material into the High Security area but it's stopped now. This break in the work has allowed them to catch their breath and allows them some RnR by playing basketball in the receiving bay. The next shipment is not expected until tomorrow, which is basic foodstuffs.

William's Background accepted as in his post.
