[Sjovenia]

OK this is a first RP as a lone character

Application

Name: Nicholas Molloy
Age: 29
Nation of Origin: Antrema
First Language: English
Additional Language: Ulster Scots
Ocuppation Detective Sergeant, Antremian Police Force - on extended sick leave
Appearance: (Pic or Description) Athletic-muscular build, green-brown eyes, dark hair, some scars. Dresses semi-formally/semi-casually, practical clothing for arduous terrain, teal overalls and black webbing for tactical duties. Wears sunglasses on occasion.
Bio: A young trouble-maker living a rough working class family life, Molloy gradually got dragged into the dark and cold world of republican terrorism in the Northern Isles province of Antrema. Engaging in protests and rioting he had the knack for not only instigating violence but evading the cops until his first and last major job for the CRA terrorist group involved gun running. A job that double-crossed him, resulting in being left for dead and several months in prison. Feeling betrayed by the Cause he swore to uphold in his teenage years he saw the other side of the story from the authorities point of view and willingly gave up the CRA and saw him join the Royal Northern Isles Constabulary - the republican's worst nightmare - eventually he made a name for himself and informed his superiors of enemy tactics, this allowed the police and the army to do their jobs more effectively. Four years ago he joined the Special Branch, the CID element responsible for intelligence and national security and was assigned to their specialist paramilitary unit Echo 4 Alpha. After a dangerous undercover operation that saw his kidnapping, torture and eventual rescue and the arrest of two wanted terrorists Molloy was placed on R'N'R after his ordeals and was awarded the Kings Police Medal for his actions. Molloy has headed for a southern climate to take time off duty to reflect upon his actions, his career and his life. This is a man that has known violence and mayhem whilst fighting for King, Empire, Law and Order. Since he is in Post-Apartheid South Africa, will Molloy get some time off and relax in the sun or has he just walked out of the microwave and into a volcano?

Decent flag..its different

There's something a bit strange about the setting: If Volkstaat is 80% Afrikaner and 20% Black... Where are all the Coloreds, haven't they always been the largest population group in IRL Cape Town?

An Afrikaner exodus from the rest of the country when South Africa Balkanized explains the white majority in Volkstaat as a whole, but the lack of Coloreds is really strange.

I still need to workout both religious and demographic information the 80% white 20% black is just a really basic way to put it haha

Also this should be a lot of help when it comes to communicating in the area.

Makes sense, thank you for the advice!

The 10 commandments of this RP
1. Godmodding is forbidden.

2. PG-17 or below.

3. NO ONE LINERS.

4. NO MASS FIREFIGHTS, TERRORISM, - Thats for the intrigue. This thread is about character interraction.

5. tech level UPTO 2014 ONLY!

6. Species wise, player characters Must be HUMAN, however if your character is say a Police officer with a police dog, you can RP the dog but it will behave LIKE A DOG! so no sentient ponies or dragons, half humans etc

7. NO KILLING OF OTHER PLAYER CHARACTERS UNLESS BOTH PARTIES AGREE FOR IT TO HAPPEN IN A REALISTIC WAY

Forbidding political intrigue in an RP where two characters are a close relative of a Communist premier and the GenSec of the local communist party might not actually work.

Mireia isn't actively plotting to overthrow the Volkstaat government (in fact she went to the Cape in order to escape political intrigue), but the GenSec probably is.

[The Volkstaat Republic]

Thanks.

Sound alright to me, looking forward to seeing your post.

South African demographic term for interracial folk generally.

Different from America's "colored" term it assume? Just making sure not going to assume anything

[The Iberian Peoples]

Can I get the Kraut as a rommmate? So far Mireia is the only female character, the girls' dorms might get terribly boring.
