(OOC-FT-APPLICATIONS-DISCUSSION) A world in Flames.

[The Vekta-Helghast Empire]

I've just spent another hour on the map, and I can say the sector map is coming along pretty quickly, all the sub-continents are completed and all that's left is about 80% of the main continent.

So are sectors kinda like nations or were they established by the aliens to make controlling the planet easier?

There are no nations, even before the war it was just one super-nation. So yes, the sectors are just how the nation was split up.

You mentioned of Caucasian,Asians and Blacks.Do sectors have different cultures or colours? And were they already used by the natives or were made by aliens?
This is propably my last question....for now

All of the sectors are inter-racial if that's what you mean.

Yeap that was it.So I guess they are just geographical areas,no different cultures... that makes the revolutionary theory of our people easier.Anyways is there any way we can help with the map?

Not at the moment, I may upgrade it later. (The only reason it's taking so long is the sheer amount of territories on it. Other than that, it's nothing special. Just something I stuck together in gimp.

Name: James Kelly

Gender: Male

Age: 21

Physical Description and/or picture: http://rickmorrisonregionalreport.com/w ... obseli.jpg

Allegiance (Loyalist/Neutral/Resistance): Neutral

Back story, one paragraph minimum, two paragraphs recommended: James was born in a poor family and is still in a poor family. As the eldest child of 9 other children his family relied on him to bring money for the family. First he killed rats for the nearby market. Rat was cheap food so he got little pay for killing them, but he did get money, and rats. He rarely eats medium-high quality food since he's so poor. He lives at his parents house taking care of his younger siblings. He knows he can't live like this anymore and is now looking to start a criminal life and take advantage of the war. He knows that he'll have no difference on how it turns out so having a criminal life would help him and his family get back on their feet.

Role-Play Example (OPTIONAL): You invited me I believe.

-SNIP-

Accepted, welcome. (I'll put up an IC later tonight, just been busy with other stuff.)

[Melas]

Before you do can I change my character's name to Ray Black?

Also you said they were using muskets to fight before and during the invasion,what are the rebels usingnow?

You're deciding if any NPC's attack us or come up and interact with us right? And you're fighting as the NPC's right?

A mix.

Rebels from the country side will be armed with only muskets (No one is allowed in the country side, or they're shot on sight, however some people would survive by hiding in the old mines, etc.) Whilst rebels from the city would be armed with Sub-Machine-guns and such, like the Overlord police forces.

Indeed, I wont have a single character that I play as, I will just play as the NPCs, unless of course someone interacts with an NPC and becomes friends with them, in such cases I will be obliged to play as said character.

[Melas]

Picking a name is always the hardest part in an RP

In case we die what happens? I feel like I playing as Ray's younger brother who is still at the village.Maybe as he grows up decides to step on his brother's footsteps.He is 3 years younger so he is 19 years old.I still dont know his first name

All right. You should also change the title to A World In Flames (OOC, Discusion, Open)

[Firstaria]

Wait, an IC before a map?

[The Vekta-Helghast Empire]

Wait, an IC before a map?

The players will be restricted to one city, until the map of the world is completed.

EDIT: The map will only be there so you know the shape of the continents and where the cities are located, it's also there to show you the progression of the war, and since there's teleportation technology and the likes, the map is pretty much useless IC'ly, unless you're on the run in the country side and such.

[Firstaria]

So X-COM is supposed to be in this one city, then?

[Melas]

Ok so after thinking,no one knows my character's real name.Ray Black is the nickname he came up with so people dont find out about his family..

And so,since 'Ray' left the village to join the rebellion did he travel to Sector 9 or was it a 'red zone'? I fancy joining XCOM so I think I should head towards their direction,I only have my musket and some food with me

[The Vekta-Helghast Empire]

You can spread once I open up the others, if you wish.

Also, IC is open - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=221478&p=12678625#p12678625

Edit: Microsoft word is so deceiving, it looks like it's A LOT more text on word than it actually is, so the introductions look painfully short. I'll add some more detail to make them look a bit more lengthy and professional, I suppose.

[Melas]

So... all of us are inside the city??

[The Vekta-Helghast Empire]

So... all of us are inside the city??

Yes, for now.

[Lewina]

Can you make a thing for neutral characters? I'm sure my guy wouldn't be in an overlord city especially since he is poor and doesn't have any business with them.

I've only selected an overlord city, because it would make sense for all factions to come together here, due to the whole re-distribution of the populace. IC'ly you wouldn't have a choice, you'd move or be shot, however the fact that your poor does change how the role-play will effect your character, as instead of living in a Loyalist apartment or something like that, you'd be living in a tiny 4 X 4 apartment near the City walls. (Yes, the Overlords constructed walls with automated turrets around their cities, so that anyone who tries to escape to the country or break into the city from the country is shot.)

So really I'm there to get back onto my feet and return to my family with money? If so I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO POST!!!
