Unfortunately, since Cain offered peace, the Vagrant didn't show off the real power of the sword.

Atlas in the cannon was taken down by the remnants 27 some odds years ago. That and caravans take a lot more than one or two people to run, this is more of a character driven story than it is a faction story.

Was the sound coming off of the sword incredibly loud like cripplingly so, or was it just a loud tone that can be easily heard?

Going to have to officially withdraw. I made a mistake in applying for role plays I didn't have the time for, and now I'm forced to start the cutting. Thanks for the app acceptance, and I wish you all a thrilling tale.

No one of importance. This was just a formal notice.

I didn't get a chance to post IC'ly. So my PC will just go quietly into the night :p

Is it fueled off of gas? because that's been gone for a very long time in cannon.

It's an extremely rare piece of Atlas tech he acquired during the outbreak.
In my application, it says he slaughtered a group of survivors with the leader's weapon.
The sword belonged to that man.
How about that?

This is, to be honest, getting ridiculous.

I am fine with people using swords but a sword is just that, a sword. The moment it starts becoming an anime is the time I have to step in. If you want to TG me what that thing does then fine, but note that I will most likely take a stand against anything deemed outlandish. Also note that Atlas did not manufacture weapons, and even if they did a sword would be low on the list.

Nation Name: Edean Liyn
Birthplace: Denver, Colorado
Ethnicity: Asian
Age: 38
Pic/Description: Muscular, black hair, black eyes (vacant), tanned, gaunt skin, extremely white teeth (bleached), wears metal exoskeleton that provides minimal defense

Occupation: Engineer

Immunity: None (being high overstimulated immune system)

(OPTIONAL)
Personality: Depressed
Skills: Genius Engineer (genius in general)
Likes: Happiness and peace (and weed)
Dislikes: Nothing
Fears: Nothing (while high/always)

Bio: Being the son of a genius engineer with a serious addiction to marijuana, Donnel Ricken has always wanted to die happy in a world of hate. When his father died due to liver failure, his last words were "I was happy." It was in this intense drugged state that Donnel, believing weed to be his only anti-depressant, constructed an exoskeleton with the sole purpose of supplying him weed through a mask, a caravan that contains a weed farm, a solar panel roof and a weapon fashioned after a potato cannon that launches jars of compressed weed in gas form. This can be used to intoxicate enemies and reduce them to a giggling wreck of their former self. However, due to his constant intoxication, Donnel pays heed to no caution. This allows him to withstand incredible amounts of pain. Despite this, even in his intoxicated state he is relatively clever, and always plans three weeks ahead before performing an act. He is not immune to any of the viruses, however his immune system is overstimulated due to the large amounts of drugs he uses. He prefers to negotiate with others and help those in need.

RP Examples: None

Where should I start?

I can accept a guy going out of his way to keep a stock of weed but this is getting a bit outlandish. I'm no expert but can you even keep marijuana in a gaseous form? The potato cannon is also unlikely and his caravan would likely make him a target for bandits regardless of what was inside. DENIED for the time being.

That's fine. They're not too far from Aspen (no longer in sight).

I'm not gonna say much or have you change anything since you've already got it up and it would be a pain, but note that Infected are really rare. Most people in the world are immune in some way now and most Infected simply die from the elements or exposure. While it's possible that a rare someone with no immunities recently turned 7 is pushing it somewhat, just for future reference in case you wanted to throw in a horde or something. Also you taking on 7 highhandedly is fine since they were just Infected and not too smart, but don't try that with anything or you'd be ripped to shreds. This is all just for future reference. Good post.


Ah, right - okay. That's fine. Thanks for heads up, I'll have to keep that in mind for future reference. I wasn't quite sure about that, but thanks for clearing it up. I intentionally set the fire so that when you guys get closer you'd notice the smoke, just to give us reason to walk into each other.

It's no big deal. Just trying to keep things reasonable.

My apologies for not being online. Work and all that.

Anyone mind giving me a quick rundown of where we're at? I'm still reading the IC.

Haven't missed much. Vagrant is following us, has a weird sword (which will likely be limited to being just another hunk of sharp metal), and Cain went to speak with him. Further out another guy is burning bodies after dealing with Infected. The expedition has not gotten too far.

Just a note, but the War Party is nowhere near the current caravan. They're at least a day's travel from Aspen at the moment.
