Oh, now I get it. We were competing for spots. In that case Dastardos, count me out. If you were gonna accept me (LOL NOT LIKELY) give my spot to somebody else. Now that i've left, they have more of a chance. Good luck with the RP, it's a shame you couldn't join the Vampire one.

Wow, there's a lot of competition here for a couple of spots. I'm going to be different and not bribe you. Unless you want me to... do you want me to?

The OP said:
"I will be allowing 6 users in (for now) and I have 5 spots reserved already. I will be allowing one other user to join."
Yeah it appears that way.

If still open, I'd like to try to join.

The reason I deserve the spot?

My experience in writing, and ability to unveil a persons thought so I can play to them.

Nothing else really. Sorry.

Template. Note that this is me, so if you insult it you insult me. I'll respond in kind.


[Not relevant anymore. If you need it, PM me]

I'm usually not the one to jump in and yell "Pick me! Pick me!" But I feel I should point out that I am still in no other RPs (well one other if that pirate RP picks up) so I'm guaranteed to be very attentive to the RP. Even if I am in other RPs, I waste a lot of my life here and find myself checking my RPs all the time, and I'm always waiting for others to post.

Also, some guy from an RP forum tried to recruit me to his forum, citing my fantastic writing skills and highly complimenting me. And if he thinks it then it must be true.

Wow.
News to me that we're competing...
Fuck I should probably make up a new end to my bio, I like most of it but the end just annoys me, seems a touch abrupt.

Also Dasta, Hookers, Pizza, Free beer and a 401k in the deal for you if you pick me!

Alright guys, if we don't stop with the OOC talk, the mods will lock this thread.
This is also a cleverly disguised bump post.

The suspense is seriously killing me. Sir, having only one or two slots open for players has made your RP instantly in massive demand. Good show.

Quick question: If you only needed 1 or 2 more people, and you have more than enough willing participants, what exactly are we waiting for?

It is now officially Sunday. I demand action.

EDIT: The Escapist is lying to you. It says I posted this at 11:56 but four individual sources inform me that it is 12:00 (Well now it's 12:01). So believe me, it's Sunday.

Name: Samantha Fascher (goes by Sazzy)
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Aspiring Job: Writer/novelist
Current Job: Sazzy works at a café as a barista where she puts her two greatest loves into action; coffee, and talking shit.
Personality: Sazzy is happy go lucky to the point of it being a danger to her health, she has a lot of love for pretty much everyone in the world and is always prepared to help; and always ready with a second chance. This naturally leads to her being a horrible judge of character; but you shouldn?t hold it against her as she defiantly wouldn?t hold it against you.
Appearance: Sazzy has natural red hair but has peroxided the left hand side of it and streaked it with different technicoloured dyes. It literally appears to be a rainbow cascading into flame. Her eyes are a soft green and her face slightly freckled. She has an athletic build from years of being on the high school cross country running team.
Short Bio: From a young age it was apparent that Sazzy loved people; as a child she use to talk to complete strangers (much to her mothers horror) and even ended up wandering down the street to the nearby shops at the tender age of five to talk to the butcher who use to give her a free slice of ham.

Sazzy wears lots of colourful clothing to reflect her sunny disposition; favouring greens and blues; she jokes its to try and cool down her hair.

It was also painfully obvious to her parents and closest friends that her judge of people was going to constantly lead to her hurting herself, be it physically or emotionally. But never one to worry about such trivial things Sazzy bounce?s back from any heart ache or betrayal the only way she knows how; binging on coffee and gossip.

Sazzy dreams of one day becoming a renowned writer; she has all the ideas crammed inside her head and if you give her a chance to start talking about it she will probably never shut up, and truth be told most of the ideas are good. Unfortunately Sazzy is very poor at motivating herself to actually sit down and do the writing. After all, there is always tomorrow to start isn?t there?

Name: Alphonso "Al" de los Reyes
Age: 24

Gender: Male

Aspiring Job: Psychiatrist

Current Job: Waits tables at a local Mexican restaurant

Personality: Alphonso "Al" de los Reyes is an arrogant, hotheaded Mexican American. He's convinced that he's always in the right, and it greatly offends him when someone challenges his position. Social manners fall to the wayside many-a-day, if only because he usually drops into an anger before being able to employ them. The exception is in the case of women; Alphonso's family, being Roman Catholic, ingrained a deep seed of chivalry and personal goodness inside him.

Short Bio: Al was born and raised in the Distrito Federal (D.F.) of Mexico City. When he was seventeen, he was granted a scholarship to the college he currently attends. His mother wanted to follow, since Al's father and siblings had all either left or perished during a seemingly normal flu season a few years back. However, U.S. Immigration would not allow her to follow him, citing that she had not held a job in fifteen years and would be a drag on American society.

This gave Al a deep-seated resentment of the United States that was never fully resolved. And when the U.S. attacked and deposed the Mexican government, the resentment grew to a fevered pitch. He has not heard from his mother in months and fears she may be dead. He has sworn to discover her fate, and avenge whatever evil has been visited on his native people.

Bam.

<spoiler=Character>Name: Veronica Nilsson
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Aspiring Job: Psychologist or writer. Studying English at the moment.
Current Job: Writer for the sports column in the University paper.

Personality: Nique (as people tend to call her) is a very adaptable individual, and can be very flexible as well as extremely determined and headstrong. She is capable of loving individuals deeply, but just as prone to hating people. Socially, she always prefers socialising with one or two friends at the most. When it comes to groups, she isolates herself. If you see her walking by some time, you will probably note that she seems to restrain herself with enormous discipline, not being entirely mentally stable. Nique reads and interprets people like she reads books; swiftly and accurately, and can be very intimidating, both physically and psychologically.

Appearance: Nique has short, very dark red hair with hints of brown, a small, slightly round head with a pair of hazel eyes, to the point of appearing darkly golden at times. She has always had an easier time building muscle than she wants, and has thus avoided any and most activities where that might happen. She can not help but love martial arts, however, and her body, being very adaptable, is thus very limber and pretty slim. She has almost no body fat, making her more than average muscle mass quite definable. She is slightly taller than average, and her posture normally has her hip up front and her legs wide apart; a habit from preferring to fight with her legs.

Short Bio: Nique was born in Sweden and met with violence. From her father who left her and her mother at the age of two to her mother's abusive boyfriends and then to people her age. She lived and breathed violence, and street fighting was all she knew. She swiftly grew strong enough to repel most abuse, but never had any friends to speak of.

She had a much too easy time in school, turning her lazy to it, and when she was drafted, it felt a rather natural position. She had too much of a problem with authority, however, and remained, officially, a grunt. This did not change the fact that everyone turned to her for advice and determination, always the informal leader. After the first year of obligatory service, they recognized her skills and promoted her to Corporal. Right after this, she left for the States with her salary without telling anyone to start a new life.
Right now, she's unsure whether to aim for a military or academic career.

All Character Sheets have been submitted. I am reading over them all now to make my decision on who is accepted.

EDIT: I'm in heavy debate between two of the sheets. I can't decide which to pick :/
