A NISA Story - Red Iron: 5/13 Tuesday

[TheForeignGamer]

Curses!
I have come up with a character, and now, I may not be able to resist joining!

Don't fight it... succumb to the temptation.

[JerichoDeath]

However: NOTHING nuclear. That's too cheap.

Can't use her then:

We've got six characters now (seven, once Red eventually joins). I will start the RP on Monday, 3:30 PM EST. For now, let's just talk.

Anyone have any questions?

[raspberrylicious]

Yay! Been wondering when this will start. <3

[JerichoDeath]

I have a question:
I was wondering if I could post the "Background Information" section of my character sheet here, and have a link to it in the first post... (?)

Sure thing.

Yeah. I realize that you saved that stuff on your computer, and it might not be exactly necessary to have on the first post.
This way, the information is still easily available through a link.

I can think of a couple of places that (to me) seem like good places for the link. There was that place where it was before (in-between the Personality and Appearance Sections) or it could be at the very end of the character sheet.
Whatever looks good to you.

Background Information:
She messed up a mission badly. She was critically injured, and she was captured by the enemy. While in the medical bay, she was fitted with a life-support system (rather than be fully healed), as well as a Slave Control Collar.
Afterwards, she was used as a servant for the Ferrum Family, due to her renown as a rebel soldier.

The Collar is the primary function used to control her. It sends shocks through her nervous system to punish, or it can lock her ability to control her muscles, paralyzing her.
If that were to ever fail, or be removed, the life-support system can be shut down remotely, killing her.

She unwillingly serves the Ferrum Family, but she also sees it as an opportunity to gain information on the enemy.

Two days left! If anyone still wants to make a character before the start of the RP, you still have time!

[PringlesXD]

Yayness ~

[Rydux]

Count Me in.

[TheForeignGamer]

Alright, I'm home. The RP should start in about five minutes, but I've got to make the first official post.

Scene incoming

Owait... wrong thread

[TheForeignGamer]

Start of Chapter One.

Bartholomew looked out from one of the towers in his palace. This tower was the largest of many that were scattered throughout the building, and it housed the primary comm center that was linked to the rest of the world. Anything said through the microphone could be heard throughout Earth, if he so chose to. Any vehicle in motion would be halted at once. He stepped inside, minding the faulty automatic door.

"Damn door... Harkett!" he yelled into his earpiece. "Tell A73X to get his ass up here and fix this door once I leave this room! And if he resists, I authorize you to... teach him a lesson, if you will. But do not kill or injure him in anyway that will prevent him from following orders. Otherwise I'll teach you a lesson.

"Yes sir," Harkett's voice replied. The connection severed.

"Now then..." He stared out of the bulletproof window of the comm room. Hundreds of megascrapers were before him, all shining... all dark. But none were as high as the palace. Of course not. The morning sky was overcast, containing clouds of pewter gray which hinted at a possible thunderstorm. The morning commute of skyspeeders were on their normal traffic routes, veering off when their destinations had been reached. No doubt the guards were keeping them supervision should they decide to go elsewhere. Even slaves must work. This world wouldn't pay for itself.

He sat in the recliner and turned on the microphone, preparing to speak.

"Citizens of Earth!" his voice boomed across the planet as vehicles predictably halted. "Good morning to you all, good morning! I am here to give you a special announcement today. From this day forward, we will raise blood taxes by 25%. We are running low, and this is a necessary precaution in order to ensure the prosperity of our planet. I only work to benefit mankind!"

He shut the microphone off and got up to return to his quarters. They were obviously not running low on blood. They had more than enough to sustain them for the next two-thousand years. Bartholomew left the room and saw A73X rushing up the escalator.

"Ah, you're here. Good. Now get to work." And he pushed him aside as he resumed his walk.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Fuckin' hell," Roxanne cursed as the announcement finished. "That's a damn lie, and we all know it. Shit..." She picked up her guns and put them in her holsters. "Same fucking thing every day. People suffering, people dying... it never ends."

She moved toward her own quarters, away from the rest of them. She had no way out, but at least she didn't suffer like the others did.

Spoiler:

I decided that we'll all wake up in the same ghetto and meet up later. We all live in different sections, so we'll meet up like that.

Hope you all enjoy!

"Blood tax hikes again? I'm tired of hearing that guy's voice. One day I'll single-handedly take down that guy and his frivolous empire. With my sword, and my training, I could easily handle some fat politician!" Glenn swung his sword around in fluid motions. For someone of his size and stature, using a sword of that size single-handedly was quite a sight to see. "Hopefully that Rudy guy isn't anywhere near...I'd like a peaceful morning for once." Glenn pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket, "Join the rebels and take out the evil emperor! Great message, but there's no address or anything! How am I supposed to join them if I don't even know where they are!?"

Spoiler:

Speaking of-
Is there a description of the rebel base?
Or, does it work like I think it does, and there isn't a base? Instead, the rebels move from place to place to keep themselves from being caught?

This is mostly for future reference, but I think it's important to know now... unless I missed something.

Spoiler:

The rebel base has not technically been established yet. I have some ideas planned but it will have to wait until a few of the characters meet each other. I like what you did, vampko. The fliers thing is something I didn't think of. There is no location as of yet, but there will be in time.
