Burial in the Snow (WWII Horror RP, OOC, Sign-Up, Open)

[Jordslag]

I'm intrigued about the nature of this creature. Are we talking more human-like? More animal-like? Or a little something in between?

Oh, I already know... and i'm not telling.

You're evil!

Anyhow, can't wait for the IC. Who do we have so far?

Stuff involving monsters.

You mean you believe you know, but you're not certain.

On another note, I had a look at a book with horror/supernatural themed short stories called Quiet Houses by this guy, who happens to be a friend of my dad's.
Seems interesting.

No, I actually know. It's not what I first expected it to be though.

[Rynagria]

I KNEW YOU WOULD BRING THIS DEMON GUY IN!

I like using him, and he's certainly more appropriate for this RP than my other Nazi, who was an insane German shapeshifting necromancer from the 1500s, and who was also responsible for both world wars, and doesn't like to stay dead.
Said other character being originally named Heinrich Kemmler, and also having origins in the Dresden Files.

Just as expected of Vid, I knew that he was going to be one will backstab the group.

Of course, every survival horror needs a character like him. Accepted.

Arigato gozaimasu.
Whoops, been watching too much anime. Lately I've moved on to Kämpfer. Speaking of which, that has German words in it, so it's slightly more appropriate.
Though some people might complain about the ecchi.

It's an alright anime.

I wished it had more things and for it to be less than typical harem action, which is to say most of the ones that are going out now.

[San Mazer]

I was wondering though. How is this RP planned out? Getting picked off one by one? If so, how do we decide who bites it?

Rynargia decides. Rynargia IS the monster. Or, rather Rynargia plays it. My guy had a close up encounter with the monster, but he can't remember what it looked like.

Didn't you say something about suspecting it to be a Nazi experiment gone wrong?


My guy's something of a Nazi commander/scientist/doctor combo, among other things. Also an occultist, which is always an interesting thing to be. It should lead to further interesting plot development, reactions, discoveries and the like.

It's an alright anime.

Now, eh? Akame ga Kill seems less typical, as does Mahouka, Tokyo Ghoul, M3 Kuroki Hagane and Zankyou no Terror. Sword Art Online II isn't bad, either. And it's kinda funny how Kirito's avatar for Gun Gale Online makes everyone think he's a girl. Aldnoah isn't too bad, though there are a few clichés. The main character isn't the whiny sort so often found in mecha anime, though. He seems quite detached and analytical for the most part, when in dangerous situations.

On the other hand, Shirogane no Ishi: Argevollen is a bit meh, and the main character is pretty annoying. I guess Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul can be a bit annoying at times, too, but the show's darker elements and interesting characters make up for that, as does the likelihood that he'll change his personality quite a bit in the time to come. With some self-spoilering revealing he gets tortured by someone for ten days, and changes a bit after that. Including getting Marie Antoinette Syndrome, resulting in his hair going white. Anyway...

I mean the ones I've eatched so far, which is nothing compared to you, oh master Vid.

[Videssos]

True enough, my apprentice.

[Rynagria]

True enough, my apprentice.

Vid, have you heard of Dantalian no Shouka?

[Jordslag]

No, I actually know. It's not what I first expected it to be though.

Oh, trust me, it's not that. Far from it.

History (Must at least be four sentences long): Nicholas Saltsgaver was born in Lubeck, Germany to his parents on October 2nd, 1919 and grew up just outside of the city. He lived a rather hard life through turbulent times throughout the years following the Great War but in the late 1930s as Germany was nearing war he decided that he would fight for his country. And in 1939 he joined the Wehrmacht and fought throughout several campaigns during the war including the Phony War, the Fall of France, and until recently Operation Barbarossa. But earlier in mid-1944 his unit was transferred back west into France to stop the Americans as they were breaking out of Normandy. Now he is on the front lines in the Ardennes forest.

Also, there was no folding spades yet, just regular shovels. Soldat is also not a rank, please go on Wikipedia or something and give him a proper one. Last thing, lessen the ammunition count.

[Videssos]

True enough, my apprentice.

Vid, have you heard of Dantalian no Shouka?

I've watched it. Pretty good, in my opinion. I recommended it to a friend of mine, and he liked it too.
On another note, it seems there was another new anime I didn't mention below, by the name of Tokyo Esp. Which is related to Ga Rei: Zero.

If you like Dantalian no Shoka, you might like Gosick and Rozen Maiden (haven't seen much of the last, yet).

[Ulrenon]

Can I play a low ranking member of the Wehrmacht who gets picked up along the way?

Yes, it'd interesting enough to keep my attention.

Although it moves at a slower pace than most of the anime I've watched, and thank you for the review, now I know I should finish it.

Name: Daniel Ebersbach
Appearance:

Age: 22
Gender: Male
Rank: German Private
Equipment: K98K With 5 rounds, Full canteen, fur boots, coat, Knife
Personality: Kind and shy
History (Must at least be four sentences long): Daniel was born in the small Alps village of Dorf. He was born into an average German family with an okay home. When the war started between Germany and Poland, Daniel wanted to be patriotic and fight for the fatherland, but there was a problem. At the time, he was a year younger than the legal age for joining the Wehrmacht. He fought against the Polish in 1939, but his unit was then sent to the Western Front against the Belgians and French. After the successful over-taking of France, Daniel and his unit were ordered to stay as a garrison. Later in the war, his unit was sent to the Ardennes to defend them. That was how he got here.

I never said anything that you can't be that, did I?

You're the last one to be able to send an app, so yes.

You said for him to only tell you if your guess was right, you just confirmed your earlier guess was right.
