We need a list of those in the meeting. Chances are very high that I have missed characters. Please inform any one of us and we'll update the list accordingly.

Also, please do not bring any more characters into the meeting; any characters not in attendance can and will be updated on the current situation. As it stands we're just getting cluttered.

Checking in using Amsterdam's wifi, the flight was well, but long as hell. We landed shortly after sunrise, but it's still early for you guys.

I think I've discovered the cure to depression!

Are you allowed to have characters from shows/movies on here?

[Giovenith]

Are you allowed to have characters from shows/movies on here?

Not as playable characters, but we sometimes do have appearances of canon characters depending on the context.

Nevermind then.

[Torsiedelle]

I think Torii might be ready to work for once, NVE

When she isn't volunteering for everything else. If a character goes with, say Underground, then are they stuck completely to underground, or can they help with other groups in their off time?

As far as I know no characters are 'stuck' to one group, this is character preference to which they want to work with mostly. Cross-group activity is bound to happen.

Perfect, and that last post I made clears the intern position (Miss Turner is an interning agent). And Torii would have some access to the Raptor's disguising and stealth research, which would be helpful in refining the TF guns.

Characters aren't stuck in one group. For instance, when Neste isn't patrolling, she'll be over in Sep's camp and helping plant trees and flowers. Marcus, when not functioning as a driver, might also lend a hand with construction of outbuildings or laying concrete walkways.

The groups will come in handy when specific needs arise. We have a shortlist of characters that would more than likely participate. The players manning the groups have plans... oh yes we do... that will bring in some adventure/conflict/excitement.

I'm going to wrap up the meeting shortly. Characters can then go update other characters. Minerva and Klaus will most likely head over to Chaos for drinks, if people want to tag along - but there won't be any Resistance talk going on there.

[Swith Witherward]

Ugh. Cer isn't feeling well so I'm going to take a stab at running Klaus. I'll pick up Bran's characters as well, and move them into parking positions.

From the way you have guys have talked about his hours lately, I wouldn't doubt it. Sufficient time to rest can cure a lot in a person.

[Monfrox]

Post after CAP tonight.

[Torsiedelle]

Is it okay if I redid the apps for Torii and Katya? I improved (I think) their bios, everything else, listed their skills, and redid character pics (I'm a shit artist. Creator programs and animu FTW! --- although, the cutesy anime style does make them less serious, but eh! The scale I did for those colonial soldiers doesn't look right for it.)

Do not remove this search tag: #PLAPP
Your NS Nation's Nickname: Torsii

Character Name: Tora (Torii) Anastasia Dimitrov

Character Gender: Female

Character Species (nation personification, human, alien, etc): Mundane Human

Character Physical Description (height, weight, apparent age, actual age): Torii is a teenage girl (currently 18, though somewhere between 16-18 physically. Thanks, time travel.), and a mundane human -- one of only a handful who live in the apartment building. She, like her sister, is quite attractive, and dresses in a more casual style, usually picking jean shorts and a tank top, or her favorite sundress for a day with her friends. She has blonde hair, blue eyes, fair skin, and stands at around 5'5.

URL to Character Picture, if any: Torii!

Primary Skill or Power: Torii is a soldier, and mainly a scout. She's a good marksman and sniper, and can handle most firearms. She's small and agile, and pretty strong, so moving around and getting into and out of trouble is easy for her.

Power Weaknesses/Flaws: She's strong, but not an excellent melee fighter. She's been easily beaten one-on-one several times, especially when Octavian beat her mercilessly in a fight. She relies more on her own strength, like when she beat down a group of bullies with a baseball bat in a rage.

Secondary Skill or Power: She's very intelligent, and loves science. When she isn't messing around with her TF Gun that she got as a present from Bran, she's reading a science article in bed or watching TV, or talking about it with her friends and neighbors.

Power Weaknesses/Flaws: She doesn't take the initiative to actively work for the Raptors, who she wanted to be an intern for. She never had a formal education, and couldn't even dream of working for another scientific department in her life, which is something she takes out on herself in private.

Character Background/Biography: Torii is the little sister to Katya Dimitrov, and daughter of Peter and Katya Dimitrov. Born in Stavropol, Torsiedelle, Torii was born in the center of her parents' breakup, of which little is known to her or her sister. She was lost as a small child, and doesn't remember who took care of her through her early years. In the early 2000's, the Kalmyk Rebels became a plague on her nation, living in hidden bunkers and complexes, and bringing the Second Capitol of Elista to its knees. It wasn't known how the rebels got their funding or grew so quickly, but the National Army moved and began a bloody civil war that lasted several years in the province. The Rebels were horrible people, and were known for forcing children to fight with them. Torii was one of those kids, who was forced into service after her home was bombed. Torii doesn't say much at all about her childhood, other than that she was a child soldier. When the Army captured Elista and the war ended, there was a mass purge of survivors, with only the children who were forced to fight being spared. Some of the kids were reunited with their families, other immigrated west, and others stayed alone, and went on to lead their own lives. Torii, despite having both parents, was caught up in a lot of confusing legal matters that ultimately kept her away from her family, with the exception of short visits and the occasional holiday, or if she ran off. She spent her awkward first years of puberty in a large camp-like complex full of kids like her, along with orphans and foster kids. Torii had a meek existence there, with few friends and quite a few bullies. She won't even talk about this part of her life, unlike her childhood, probably because of various embarrassing moments and bullying incidents. When she was sixteen, she was eager to move, and took the first chance to move West, like many other kids. She had little room to actually develop, and was awkward and shy for her first few months in Vafflehiem, but she came out of her shell as the made her first real friends among the Apartment Dwellers, and began to discover herself. No longer a shut-in wallflower, Torii was still affected deeply by her experiences, which she still suffers from today, with attacks of depression and trust/self esteem issues.

Why the character is in Bielefeld/Occupation: Bielefield is Torii's only home that she can think off. She realizes that her dream of a unified family back home on her Dad's land is impossible, and she's come to think of the other Apartment Dwellers as her friends and family. She doesn't know how else she could live without any of them. In Bielefield, she sees a future for herself, and happiness.

URL to Apartment Picture: The layout is very simple, and it's actually a small, but neat apartment. The sisters share the giant bed that dominates the main room, facing the dresser and across from the two other rooms and kitchen area. The apartment is simple, with dark blue carpet (the kitchen area has white tiles) and white walls with dark wood paneling where the floor and ceiling meet them. The bed is on an old wooden frame with a large overhang that sits just a few inches below the ceiling. The kitchen counter is wood with a plastic top, and the kitchen area has a refrigerator, oven, and dishwasher. The same style applies to the secondary room, which has a simple bed and shelf, and a small window on the wall behind the bed. The bathroom and sparkly white with tiles floors and smooth walls and ceiling. The counter is stone, and the bathtub is plastic. The entire apartment is at a cool 64-67 degrees constantly. The sisters keep their large number of clothes and guns safely tucked away under the beds in both rooms, the shelf, and along the wall neat the apartment door. Katya keeps a small chair and table next to the left window when facing the main bed.

IMPORTANT:
One paragraph that sums up your character. This paragraph is what we'll use on your player tab on the first page of the thread. This MUST be brief. Your tab will contain a link to your application so people will have full details: Torii is one of the two mundane human Dimitrov sisters. An energetic, emotionally-charged teenage girl, Torii is a very clingy and loyal friend, whose heart is in the right place, but whose mouth and attitude get her in a lot of trouble. She's a former child-soldier and an aspires to be a scientist, but is a procrastinator when it comes to work. She's a fighter more than a talker, but only fights to protect her loved ones.

Your NS Nation's Nickname: Torsii

Character Name: Katya Lilya Dimitrov

Character Gender: Female

Character Species (nation personification, human, alien, etc): Mundane Human

Character Physical Description (height, weight, apparent age, actual age): Katya is a 21 year old woman, standing a few inches taller than Torii. She's skinnier, with fair skin, slightly longer hair, and sharp eyes. Like her sister, she's quite attractive, and sports a professional and stylish look, wearing a white shirt and tie, tucked into a grey-black miniskirt, and a dark blue blazer, which she keeps buttoned up, long socks, and shiny black shoes.

URL to Character Picture, if any: Katya!

Primary Skill or Power: Athleticism; Katya is an athletic woman, and is an excellent runner, swimmer, and carries an array of other talents, including archery, tennis, soccer, and more.

Power Weaknesses/Flaws: She can be clumsy at times, tripping over her feet or wobbling back and forth without realizing it. She's a frail girl, and isn't very imposing at all unless she's really angry.

Secondary Skill or Power: Swordsmanship; Katya is trained in swordfighting with rapiers. She has nimble footwork, concentration, and speed, and moves gracefully when she fences.

Power Weaknesses/Flaws: She usually reserves fencing for duels or settling personal matters, and gets very worked up when in her fighting mood. She can loose it if she gets too worked up.

Character Background/Biography: Katya was born at a more stable time in her family's history. She was the first daughter of two loving parents, and, while she didn't understand it when her parents were going through a nasty divorce, she didn't complain. Her dad said that she was a princess, and her Mom said that she would be what her mother couldn't. Growing up, she wondered why she never saw her little sister, but it affected her less and less as time went on. She didn't know her dad, and her Mom said nothing other than that he was a swine, and so Katya thought that her Father did something bad. In school, Katya was held to high standards, and was taught to be a good woman, wife, and worker. She wasn't terribly popular, but was well off, and had excellent grades and many talents. She was a good violinist and pianist, her two favorite instruments, as well as a great athelete. When she graduated, her mother insisted that she go into business, but Katya was interested in the Military. Her mother didn't like it, but Katya was sure, until she spent some time in it. It wasn't very rewarding she thought.

When she heard about her sister and how she moved West, Katya followed after. At first, she was at odds with Torii, and shocked to find out that her little sister was Gay, but eventually learned to accept her, and the two grew close. She began to learn about her own preferences when she was briefly in a relationship with Dora, and then Yoshi when she had a breakdown. She became pregnant, and was very close to her sister until Yoshi left, partly due to her own uncertainty and wanting to be with Dora again. Her relationships fell apart, and she secluded herself for a long time before returning to the public scene, and letting Minerva and Klaus adopt her child. She regrets many of her past decisions, but understands that she can't take them back, and wants to keep moving ahead and proving herself.

Why the character is in Bielefeld/Occupation: She's able to be herself, and has much more freedom than her old life. She also has a little sister to look after, and good friends.

URL to Apartment Picture: She shares @F with Torii.
