Futuristic The Heist: Revolution

THE HEIST
A Sci-Fi criminal RP

-------------------
So, this is going to a far future Sci-fi RP taking place in a universe of mine. It's core elements are it's universe devoid of other intelligent lifeforms other than humans, the human empire being relatively oppressive and elitist/classist (I know, what a shocker) and that empires imminent fall. The president is slowly loosing his grip of the world he and those before him built (Well, actually it's the oligarchy of businessmen behind the scenes deciding everything, but don't tell the people that...), this industrial society has of course spawned hatred with it's people. It's forces robotic as well as human are experts of suppressing uprisings and voices that are too loud. The upper 1% sits "in the sky" within their offices decorated with the most expensive furniture built of off the most rare materials of the universe, while the general population live a dull factory life or a short one in the slums of the empires metropolises. "Capital City" as it's simply called is the true gem of the aristocracy, where they dine in the Sinope and accumulate wealth through the cities gargantuan halls of politics, industry and commerce. Less fortunate places like Joyce, only have small specs of land where anyone of importance would ever dare venture in fear of mind-hijacking highwaymen and other bandits of the cities slums. Although it's barely of notice in the run down suburbs likewise the central metropolices the Empire is dealing with a menace, an unconventionally organised such, the Pirate confederacy. These figures, parading their "Mavens" and captains have given the common people a hope of revolution, but too many live of poor wages and on fragile working conditions that they're not willing to risk. This is building up to the time for those already soured in the states eyes, the criminal, downtrodden and others tired of the seemingly never ending tyranny of the empire.

Now, where are we in this mess? Well, were people willing to take advantage of the situation. Wether it be for the money, politics or other personal motivation were gonna rob the government blind. Starting out as lowlife criminals, working our way into the ranks of criminal organisation. This is going to be a dynamic story, and players will always have opportunity to introduce new themes and factors into the RP. I'm just looking quickly checking om the interest for this kind of RP, and if it gains any tractions i'll be sure to share more material! Examples of activities we might have throughout the RP are things like bank robbery, assassinations, Data-theft/hijacking etc.
 
Dibs on the Tech guy.

Btw, what kind of Tech guy do you have in mind? Don't get me wrong it's of course no problem with a choice like this, just generaly interested as I'm planning on having a character with expertise within robotics.

Would anyone like to play a leader-esq type of character? I would at the rathest avoid this position within the roster: I won't have a problem with developing the story though (Although I intend on letting all of us do that.)

I was thinking of a more electronics/hacking than robotics. Although, now that I think about it I am kinda indecisive of the character I want to play now since I would love to play a stealthy guy with a few hacking tools. If you played Payday 2, a character like the ghost with an ECM Jammer.
 
Does the appearance have to be a real photo?
Also, how far ahead are we in terms of technology exactly? Is it flying cars and lightsabers already or is it more of a Wolfenstein thing?

I'm thinking flying car kind of era, although i've never been a laser guy (If we're thinking about the star wars concept of laser) i'll allow players to introduce new things like it. As for appearance, it doesn't have to a picture at all, feel free to explain only through text or a drawing or however else you want!
 
Moldie Moldie So which positions have been filled already? I was thinking of using a technician like character or maybe a jack-of-al-trades kind of guy

Given we got a Robotics expert and a Hacker, so i'd advise towards the more jack-of-all-trades type, but it's not a must!

Other then that we have our leader-esq character and a melee brawler.

Would a firearms expert be something you'd like to have? A John Wick-esque guy.
