I fixed the formatting issue. And I had no rp examples so I used a small portion essay I once wrote because I had nothing saved on this iPad.

Okay, much better now, but you can use one more point since you're technically only using 7 points now, when you downgraded endurance to an F. Also, what kind of neurotoxin? Symptoms? Chemical formula? Type?
I'm a massive nerd so this is kind of unneeded.

Oh it's fine. Sorry about the confusion. These touch screens can be hell with formatting, though.
A mix of Botulinum and Yeast Extract. The symptoms are paralysis, seizures, dementia. I'm not gonna go into chemical formula. Tried to find it then I was like "chemistry is hard".

Anyway, I'd liek to hear everyone's thoughts on this.
Just a thought: If you'd like, I can handle some NPCs. I've done it in other RPs, and I really don't mind.
That said, the method you've proposed seems perfectly sound. I just wanted to offer an alternate option.
Hmm. If we went with specific numbers, we'd have to make sure that no one's cheating (although why one would, I'm not quite sure), and you'd probably have to set prices for things. It would definitely add an interesting aspect to gameplay, though -- if a bit frustrating at times, perhaps. You mentioned earlier that you might give out point "packets" to indicate vague large numbers, and not worry about small expenses; that's definitely viable.
By the way, since we're on this topic, how does attending classes actually affect gameplay in terms of abilities and stats?

You also don't need to provide stats for your familiar, it just gets sort of factored in to the character's stats.

Country of origin changed.
writing the familiar seemed the easiest way. do you want me to edit that off?

Atlannia wrote:This is fine advice, I will note though that from your opening post it seemed like your character died and then restarted behind everyone else which is not how it works, when you die you respawn at the infirmary where you can interact with other characters and pick up some exposition while the survivors are either picked off or make it to the end. The downtime won't last long though, hopefully we can wrap up this segment fairly soon.

Look, a new guy who knows how to write.
That makes you a rarity unto itself. Pleased to meet you, Antesa. I hope you stay for a good long while.

Everyone who hadn't died yet survived their fights, uh, except for Vincent, sorry Ameriganastan.

So nice that I was killed off after two posts. Super fun RP this was. Goodbye.

Personal Information
Name: Sawyer Pierce
Appearance: Fairly tall with an average build. Has dark brown hair and green eyes along with rectangular-framed glasses. (Since a decent pic is hard to come by, I have a description! Ah-hah!)
Age: 33 (he's so old)
Birthplace: Alterra
Nationality: Alterrian
Personality: Generally layed-back and easygoing, Sawyer is highly intelligent and prefers to prevent/end confrontations through diplomacy rather than fighting it out, mostly because his experiences with killing so far have been quite negative. As part of a group, he tends to take on a leading role. Because of the ingrained Firaxon combat protocols on the neurotransmitters, his usage of them has embedded some of the protocols into his own brain, causing Sawyer to become incredibly violent and irrational at the most narratively (in)convenient times.
Biography:Incredibly intelligent and gifted his entire life, Sawyer breezed through his general education, graduating his secondary education at the age of 15 and accepted a scholarship to one of Alterra's finest engineering universities. After graduating from there, he found himself without a decent job or anywhere that would challenge him. Somewhat frustrated at this turn of events, he took a job at a small engineering firm and waited for another opportunity while watching the Second Great Invasion unfold before his eyes, wishing that he could help in the fight against the Firaxons.
His wish came true in the aftermath of the Invasion. The newly formed EXTIRG was in dire need of scientists, engineers and researchers to find anything they could from the wreckage of Harbinger and its thousands of drones. Sawyer took the job and was assigned to a team working on reverse engineering several, smaller versions of the usual robot drones that had always acted upon a sort of hive mind. A few years of work later, the team had created the first version of the Utility Fog system, abeit without a way to control the bots down to the individual level. Funding for that particular project dropped, and eventually the members of the team were reassigned to other projects.
However, Sawyer had become somewhat obsessed with the Utility Fog project and the missing controller, and he wasn't willing to let go of a potentially world-changing invention with unlimited possibilities. Secretly diverting funds from his own pocket and the budget of the project he was supposed to be working on, Sawyer recruited 2 friends to help him create the missing controller and perfect the fog-bots. He and his partners managed to simplify the hive-mind controls in the original Firaxon drones into a smaller neuroprocessor that could be used without having to implant it into the brain and modify the design of the bots to improve their durability and further increase versatility.
While initial tests seemed to imply that some of the original Firaxon combat protocols were still in place on the processor, Sawyer and his partners agreed that there would be no way to know until an actual person and not a computer used the neurotransmitter. Sawyer volunteered to test it on himself, only for him and the neurotransmitter to go berserk and murder his partners with the bots in the span of time it took for him to throw the transmitter across the room. Deeply troubled, Sawyer hid the evidence and fled the country with the clothes on his back and every last bot of the Utility Fog system. Knowing well that there would be nowhere to work without background checks and the possibility of arrest, he went to the only place he could hope to be safe from the long arm of the law: the Assassination Academy.
Theme Song: 'Round Gunpoint- Gunpoint OST
Combat Information
Equipment:
Utility Fog (for lack of a better name): Sawyer's primary defensive and offensive weapons, the Utility Fog is the collective name for the thousands of tiny, flying robots (about the size of a grain of rice) that can interlock to form just about anything that he can imagine, ranging from massive blunt weapons to body armor and flying "surfboards". This, of course, is assuming that he has a majority of the fog-bots still remaining.
While each individual bot is fairly mudane, certain configurations can form hard, rigid plates, sharp edge or highly flexible and durable armor. While the bots can do this individually to a degreee, much of this is up to the user to control.
Neurotransmitters: Derived from the Firaxon control systems for their drones, these transmitters allow their user directly control the bots with a simple thought. However, using these and the bots in conjunction puts an enormous strain of the brain, rendering Sawyer comatose if he pushes the bots too hard or too long. They also happen to have some of the original combat protocols from the drones still on them too, so he also risks getting more of that stuff engrained in his brain if he overexerts himself!
Control Gloves (once again, for lack of a better name): To offset some (read: some) of the strain controlling the bots puts on the brain, the Control Gloves allow the user to move the bots around quickly with hand movements and gestures while the neurotransitters deal with precise movements and the configurations of each bot swarm. As a plus, the nexite crystals contained within can emit large jolts of elctricity that the bots can guide to their target.
Fighting style: Sawyer prefers to stay behind the frontlines and assist teammates by protecting them and warding off attacks. On his own though, he is cautiously offensive, predicting his oppenent's next moves and attacking only when he knows he has the upper hand. All other attacks are to force opponents into unfavorable situations. This renders him very weak against unpredictable opponents and multiple enemies. Due to the nature of his neurotransmitters, opponents who can outlast him wind up with a very easy kill.
Special moves:
Shock Barrier: Sawyer deploys a vast swarm of bots towards an opponent at all angles and then conducts electricity through all of them, creating a massive area that electrocutes all opponents in the area. With effort, this swarm can be moved around to chase after more targets.
Rapid Impale: Sawyer makes his bots form a carpet-like area under his targets. After that, they rapidly shoot upwards at the target in groups of two to three, attempting to impale or knock down the target with large spikes.
Combat Statistics
Power: B (4)
Endurance: F (0) ((use those bots too long or push them too hard? Well, you're basically in a coma!))
Agility: E (1)
Intelligence: B (4)
Special Moves: C (3)
