I'm in FL, so ET~Elderberry said:What a Cool RP you have here! I'm hoping to submit an application this afternoon, could you please tell me which time zone you are in @SachiGrl so I know how much time I have left? Also, I love how levelheaded you are in dealing with hecklers. Always a sigh of relief to have a GM who can keep their cool in a conflict after dealing with some nasty GMs in the past >_<

One more question -- is it alright if I post my WIP in the character sign ups?

I've been choosing them on the spot. I already accepted people. Ana knows she accepted because she special.The Endergod] [URL="https://www.rpnation.com/profile/6064-sachigrl/ said:@SachiGrl[/URL]
Do you know when exactly you'll choose your crew mates? Because I have to go mow my lawn, and that'll take like 2-4 hours.
Alright, I just didn't want to miss out on getting my character approved or declined because I missed a deadline.SachiGrl said:I've been choosing them on the spot. I already accepted people. Ana knows she accepted because she special.
Yeah, I'm fixing everybody's cause no one knows how to not break code apparently >.>Elderberry said:@Alstromeria, hey thanks. Look forward to posting with you.
@SachiGrl, I just completed my CS, but the format doesn't look right for some reason. Should I post it anyways?
SachiGrl said:Do you mind doing it today. I wanna start tomorrow.
Then I shall write faster.SachiGrl said:I'm closing the chance to post a character by the end of today.
Except the guy in the different time zone (he's excused)
Kissass. Nothing wrong with that *runs hand through hair vainly*Elderberry said:@Alstromeria, hey thanks. Look forward to posting with you.

Fun fact: The reason that apes and monkeys in general are much, much stronger than humans even though they have almost identical bdy types is because instead of having their muscles split up between their upper arms, forearms, and hands like humans, it's all just one large long muscle.Elderberry said:

DESCRIPTION:
Monkey Boy
A monkey tail hangs from his tailbone, often curled up into a question mark, swaying side to side when excited (also serves as a natural air freshener after binging on chips and salsa, tbh). The man’s feet grew out to the larger end of the human spectrum and are hidden under long thin hairs (much to his chagrin). Likewise, the backs of his hands also grew out wispy hairs reaching down to his knuckles (puberty wasn’t easy for Adonis). He is a hairy fellow in general, but not the thick fur of a dog covers his cream complexion, his body hair boasts the thickness and texture of a balding man.
The resemblance to a great ape is more than skin deep. Adonis happens to pride himself in his expert climbing and swinging abilities (and tendency to shout over everyone in the room when excited). The strength of a great ape bursts through the swell of his biceps when he proudly raises both fists to his cheeks in a classic strongman pose. Veins sprout down his forearms like branches, and are constantly swelled with adrenaline.
ALLIES: TBD
ENEMIES: TBD
HOBBIES: Fighting. Thrill-seeking. Reading books/magazines when he can keep still for five minutes.
LIKES: Loud, exciting places. Creating a ruckus when he’s bored. The beautiful women of Chordate.
DISLIKES: Being in one place for too long. Bad attitudes. Making assumptions (and those who make them).
PERSONALITY: Adonis wears a smile like some women wear makeup – won’t leave his quarters without one. But some days he just wants to throw his rough bedsheets overhead and dissolve into the mattress – those days can be difficult. Though Adonis is forgiving of faults in others, he is prone to beating himself up over any little thing he does wrong, and will cannonball his mood from a grinning ray of sunshine to the darkest cloud in the squad. He tends to perform quite poorly when under emotional duress — once even pointing a gun on himself when pursuing a hostile. Needless to say he nearly lost an arm. A face. And whoever was standing behind him when his forefinger nearly squeezed out a 10 inch bullet.
HISTORY: Adonis was born of a military family – for generations back the eldest child was urged to carry along the mantle and bring home a few badges from the battlefield. As luck would have it, both his mother and father decorated their sleeves with military insignia – and had a secret room hidden in the basement apparently. Two-door security even. One securing the rusty door leading into the unfinished metal and tin-walled shanty they called a basement, and another door Adonis knew only by the light that shone through the upper door’s cracks when that mysterious door opened. Of course Adonis wasn’t curious at all about what was down there. Nope. Not this guy – he snuck up behind his father nonetheless. Holding a magnifying lens around the corner as the man punched in the key code…5178901. Adonis was surprised his stupid trick actually worked, and sputtered a chuckle into his palm that drew his father’s suspicious eyes his way. Adonis was nowhere to be found.
While sitting on his bedside in deep thought, knuckles braced together upon his lap – Adonis decided it was time. Harsh as his parent’s punishments tend to be, the curiosity of what lied hidden under the floorboards gnawed him to the bone. He didn’t care if they found out. He stabbed his fingertips into that control panel like he was (), and glanced over his shoulder to ensure his parents were still out for lunch, nowhere in sight. The door fell open before him and his socked foot slipped out from underneath him, dragging a startled monkey boy down to the bottom of the staircase. A booming bang shook through the tilled walls of the basement, and in that moment Adonis was terrified to even breathe as his swollen eyes scanned the hallway above for any sign of his parents. Nothing but that rusty clock buzzing across its metal shelf.
He grabbed hold of the banister, and as his hand pushed his body up from the ground, his brow crinkled at a bright white light shining across the room, spilling out a doorframe on the right. Apparently his parents left in such haste they didn’t lock the second door. Lucky guy. Adonis’ confidence returned as a pink smile curved between his cheeks, and his slender frame was swallowed by the brightness of the light funneling down the center of the basement.
“Holy…crap…”
His eyes widened at 20 foot walls, white from top to the bottom – shelving hundreds of weapons. He knew his parents were fond of collecting guns, but this was…this was…holy crap! He glanced down at his toes – floor was white too – and only then noticed he had been walking down a slope. Deeper and deeper down into the ground. An entire selection of pulse rifles lined the far end of the room, and Adonis chased after them, long forgetting his parents would be home soon. Much as he first resisted recruitment, resisted a life of violence, when his fingertips inched over to the smooth finish of that sleek rifle sitting atop a glass stand, his pacifist ideals crumbled.
Adonis thought himself one of life’s soldiers already. A life of banging knuckles in the streets had brought nothing good, nothing but scars, bruises, and tears. It sucked being the butt of every monkey joke growing up. Oh it was funny at first, until the jokes became scathing, and when the pranksters wouldn’t let it die Adonis used his fists to quiet them. He went from being the monkey boy to being the crazy guy with red eyes that could kill. Veins sprouted across the whites of eyes, making him look drunk on his rage.
No more.
The last he needed on his plate was to feed his family’s obsession with violence. Adonis knew good and well if his parents weren’t scooped up into the military they’d be cutthroats prowling the ghettos of Tupar. He wasn’t going to give in.
Oh but when his fingerpads slid across that smooth metal finish, his teeth dug into his lips, fighting the urge to slip that hunk of metal under his arm. Adonis couldn’t resist, he swung the rifle strap over his shoulder, and raised the sights into view. About the goofiest smile stretched across his face as he rolled around the white void from imaginary enemies, diving down into cover, puckering his lips into immature explosion sound effects. It was then that the gun slipped off his shoulder, and he jumped at the sudden thud echoing across the cave of a room. He furrowed his brow when he stared down into the empty chamber, eying a note crumpled inside. He took it out: Balgar Islands. Died 2998. Summer.
He dropped the gun like he was holding a corpse – some hunters displayed heads on a wall after a kill, others put the guns of their enemies on display.
Adonis placed the gun in its proper place, and fled from the basement just in time to hear the main door creak open. Cheeks flushed and out of breath, his parents asked their son what was wrong, but he only shook his head and said he changed his mind about everything – he was going to enlist tomorrow. His parents pulled their wide-eyed son into their arms, showering him with praise, but Adonis couldn’t slow the pacing of his heart. Hell he didn’t want to end up on that wall next if he disappointed them one too many times. Scary parents just got a whole lot scarier…
