I see no outright bad guys. I'm half tempted to make a mentally unstable ex-prisoner, escapee would be more accurate, that knows Jake somewhat. What say the rest of you?

HOLY FUCK.


An Ex-Con that was in the same prison as Jake? THAT would be interesting, Jesus Christ.

Slightly maniacal ex-con coming up.

 

[Soviet Panda]

WIP


Name: Connor McKinley


Age: 38


Gender: Male


Appearance:

Connor stands at a magnificent 5'8". But due to how muscles weigh more then fat, he's a staggering 200 some lb. He's not the prettiest thing to look at, his nosing being broken several times and poorly set. Scars crisscrossing his body and tattoos covering what they can don't exactly add to it. Surprisingly enough he doesn't have any piercings.


Personality/History: Something inside Connor isn't lined up or fits perfectly. He seems normal, until you really start to look into it. this was always the case with Connor McKinley, there was always something that little bit off about him. It became all to obvious once he was sentenced to prison. Instead of straightening out, he wanted to stay in. He was a king in there, doing what he wanted when he wanted. Solitary be damned. If you pissed him off, you'd find a shank in you sooner rather then later. And now that the apocalypse has started, he's taken full advantage of his hardened criminality with a touch of insanity. When he's driving down the street, he'll hit whatever is in his way. Whether it's dead or alive.


Since the apocalypse, he's become more and more of a loner. He's out to look after number one, that being him. However there are a few people he'd be wiling to "work" with, follow is a more accurate description but he doesn't like that word. The elderly warrant a certain level of respect to him. And even though he's insane and prone to violence, he won't touch an obviously pregnant woman. But the elderly take priority over the pregnant, and he'd be more willing to do as an elderly person says then a pregnant woman.


Equipment: The mad bastard that is Connor McKinley managed to loot the prisons armory before leaving, so quite frankly he's a force to be reckoned with.


Bullet proof vest


Pump action shotgun


Automatic rifle


Side arm.


And to get to where he wants to go he stole the prison bus. That way he can store all his goodies.


Along the way he's crafted some rather viscous looking weapons that he tests on zombos and the occasional human.


Skills:


Hardened Prisoner: He knows how to fight, rules be damned. If he can kill you, he'll kill you.


Looter: He'll turn a place upside down looking for things to claim as his. Food and water as well as yet more gear will not easily evade him if he can help it.


Other:


He was in the same prison as Jake and knows of him. Not much, but a little.


The only thing he's currently running low on is fuel, and all the cars he's found at the side of the road have had either very little or nothing in them.

@DrTrollinski @Beowulf hella tho I'm excited for another malicious character-  


but ya if u need ideas- West had older brothers, nick has a kid possibly (I actually might make if no one wants to do that cause that's a good idea), Levi has a sister (but she's already on his CS) 


plus any character's parents (except Jo haha)

I was thinking about making another side character that's connected to another group - Anyone you'd particularly like me to make? I'm up for making a couple if you wanted me to make two to be associated with your guys

 

[TheHarlequinnCat]

@DrTrollinski I'm sure wests older brother could easily have nicks kid (actually would be like four turning five) 


but lol i could also also settle for another "bad guy" who was associated w Josephine at a previous institution. I still haven't brought her into the RP 

 

[KingofAesir]

Autumn has a cousin that I was too lazy to make, if anyone wants to create a character related to her.  


Also, Jem and Caris may or may not have a long lost sibling. Idk. Just speculating.

 

[TheHarlequinnCat]

@DrTrollinski or his old


love interest (a girl)

I'd be up for playing the child character; wouldn't have any objections to making a lil' guy. I could make another bad character to go alongside Jo as well, but before I make any characters I'd have to get more information on them, obviously.


And @Iskolde - If there's no takers for your offer I wouldn't mind making the cousin. It sort of depends on how many characters I end up with, though. 

 

[KingofAesir]

It's cool, man. I can live without the cousin. He's not crucial to her story line or anything, he's just...there. @DrTrollinski

 

[TheHarlequinnCat]

@Aldur I'm doing a reply on the rp tonight is your character traveling alone or with Nick and Levi (West already reached the camp)  my next post will have Nick and Levi getting to the lodge (unless someone else wants to rp with them and run into them)


plus @AllTheFangirlThings do your characters previously know mine? I'd like to know before anyone arrives at the camp


@DrTrollinski you're a peach for making bby nick (still wondering how we'll work out the introduction and recognition of this as his bby) but I love love love youuu  


@Iskolde do you have characters w any affiliation to mine?(: or do you want them to?(even a stray run in on the road or a tense crossing or supply exchange) plus I'll be reading ur post soon.


**remember that there are other locations that are not the lodge and I still have a free character (Josephine) who hasn't been placed anywhere.


@Beowulf welcome to the crew I can't believe we all Rped together to 2 years ago!! It is so great to see everyone back 

 

[KingofAesir]

@TheHarlequinnCat I didn't really think about that. Would you want any of them to?

 

[TheHarlequinnCat]

@TheHarlequinnCat I didn't really think about that. Would you want any of them to?

I don't care (: up to you. we can strt from scratch or have an affiliation of sorts 

 

[Soviet Panda]

So I've edited Connor's CS a lot in an attempt to really push home that he's a big bad. But I feel like I over did it.

 

[KingofAesir]

Well damn, we've got an insane prisoner with a bus? This is gonna get real interesting real quick.

 

[Soviet Panda]

Beep beep mother truckers.

 

[Aldur]

Malicious bad guys? If I have time I'm bringing Derrick into this.

​

Name:
​

Rhea Saika Romanova
​

 
​

Age:
​

27
​

 
​

Gender:
​

Female
​

 
​

Appearance:
​

Romanova is athletic, with a tall figure at 5' 8" and weighing 122 pounds. Her hair is dark and fairly straight with slight waves of medium length, often tied back somehow.
​

Her eyes are blue, with a gray appearance at times.
​

She has a light-to-tan skin tone with several marks, the largest being a thin scar going from just below her navel to the bottom left side of her ribs. She has a piercing below her lip on the left corner of her mouth, which is rarely used unless she's comfortable that she has no need to be violent. Without a ring/stud, it is only visible as a small circular scar.
​

 
​

 
​

 
​

 
​

 
​

 
​

 
​

Personality/History:
​

Romanova is business-like and stoic, with a matter-of-fact attitude. She tends to stay away from conceit or negativity, mostly. She in fact stays away from pretty much everything, taking the role as a lone wolf type.
​

Her understanding is unwavering, along with her care. Although she isn't a 'people person,' Romanova rarely turns anyone away without reason or because it wouldn't benefit her, though she has limits to her patience and generosity.
​

For the most part her emotions stay in check, with her providing a serious and calm atmosphere. The times she shows intense emotion are obvious simply because of how unusual it is for her to break her calm demeanor. Jealousy can spark this, along with desperation or concern.
​

Rhea can't handle pain or death, in others. While she herself can take a lot of physical pain, seeing others hurt gets her for some reason, though she has no morals against killing something inhuman. Because of this she lacks the guts to kill anyone who is still human, whether for the belief that they can still change or because she's afraid the process will be painful. Along with this, she hates seeing real suffering, but also people that victimize themselves.
​

Her appearance is something she loves and hates, with her various scars scattered around her legs, shoulders and chest. This lead to her present habit of sprinting/running whenever upset, whether angry, jealous, sad, or stressed. Clearly, appearance isn't a huge issue in her situation, but she obsesses about vanity and hygiene, either worrying she's too 'toned' or has too many scars. This isn't so much from the thought that others care, but from her personal standards.
​

As far as sense of humor goes, it's rarely seen, and often introduced at a deadpan. Her intelligence is something she prizes, so opportunities for appropriate and witty humor are scarce.
​

 
​

Her fear of causing pain made it hard for her to do her job. She became an RN, like her parents who both worked in the medical field. Her father was on-call, so her life revolved around his schedule. While her mother worked fewer hours, her father could disappear in an instant, going off to help someone.
​

She admired and hated him for this. He would care so much about someone he didn't know. But, as a child, he didn't seem to care about his own family. That person was more important.
​

As she grew older she saw more of him, and eventually understood how much he loved his family. She never wanted to be anything but a doctor, after seeing them. In reality she didn't feel like she had an option. Her parents were open-minded, helping her through her sexual confusion stage and many dramatic episodes without judgement. Still, she followed in their footsteps because her mind never so much as traveled to the possibility of having another kind of job. After becoming an adult, she moved in with a grandparent in the U.S., where she continued school at a university.
​

She was in college for six years, which she spent focusing on sleep and study instead of friends(which was impossible to have with the other two). Halfway through her grandfather died unexpectedly, leaving her without a place to stay. Working multiple jobs as a cashier and waitress, she paid for an apartment on her own. Eventually she started as an RN, just as things took a bad turn.
​

Again, she didn't have that many friends. At the time she lived in an apartment building, where she stayed for the first two days after people near her began to die. After that she locked herself in for nearly an entire month. Her car had been stolen by the time she decided to leave, and most of her area had been thoroughly destroyed.
​

And so began her slow and painful trek north. On the way she gained and lost several groups, small relationships that she clung to until something inevitably happened that made one of them move on. Some were temporary shelter, while some she met became friends.
​

As of recently, she hasn't been traveling with anyone. Alone, the days slid by, while someone else at least gave the excitement of unfamiliarity.
​

In various groups she offered something, maybe a trade of food for a secure place to stay or a gun and ammunition for a car that needed gas. For longer term she acted as a physical contribution, with a surprising amount of strength and speed as well as a fearlessness that allowed her to kill efficiently.
​

Right now she's looking for her parents, who live in Canada. Thus far her journey has been slow and aimless, with Romanova unwilling and unable to read a map properly, especially one between the two countries. She's generally unprepared and unmotivated, driven by the small possibility that they made it through, and because of this it would be wrong for her to not seek them out.

Wouldn't say it's been overdone, personally. As long as you can somewhat interact with the guy it shouldn't be too much of a problem xD
