The Fate of Elrenaa

2763 Views 29 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  Asamodai
The hive world of Elrenaa has never been a peaceful place. Whether it be the politicking, infighting and cold war of the Upper Spires or the constant battle for survival within the Underhive, none of Elrenaa's people are ever truly safe. Now, things are only getting worse...

The mutant population of the underhives have always been restless, but there protests, rioting and terrorist attacks have always been disorganised and haphazard. Recently though, something has changed. The mutants are getting bolder and more organised, their attacks reaping an ever greater toll on the local Arbites and PDF forces. Nowhere is this felt more than in Hive Saiden, the largest of the planets great cities.

However this is just the beginning. Little do the people of Elrenaa know that events are just unfolding that will shape their world forever.


Hi guys and welcome to my RP Recruitment thread. This is my first time trying to run an RP thread but I've put a lot of planning into this and I think it has potential.

Here's the deal. You will play as a citizen of Hive Saiden on the world of Elrenaa. This can be just bout anyone you might find in the underhive, be they gang members, mercenaries, bounty hunters, enforcers, PDF guardsmen, young adventuring nobles or just ordinary people trying to go about their day. These characters will be swept up into events far larger than themselves which will eventually decide the fate of their world.

Rules:

*The GM's word is final. PM me if you have any issues.

*Death is possible but won't come lightly.

*No Godmodding. That should really go without saying.

*There will be two types of posts, action and conversation. Action posts I'd like to be at least eight sentences. Conversation posts will come into effect when meeting certain characters, responses during conversation can be as little as a single sentence.

*If you start and are unable to post for any amount of time PM me.

I don't have a set number of players in mind for this so to begin with I'll leave this here about a week and see what I get.

Character Sheet

Name: Dolsa Terulin

Age: 37

Appearance:

Pale skinned from the lack of light in the under world of Hive Saiden, Dolsa is a rather hairy and slightly overweight fellow. He's got a fair bit of muscle to his arms, and he's worked hard his whole life. He's got brown eyes, a blunt nose, a balding scalp, and a decent sized mustache and beard.

Personality and Background:

Dolsa owns and runs a small bakery in the under hive. Despite being such a small business, his bread and baked goods are reputable, and he has a steady stream of customers. They are far ranging, but most would never be allowed to show themselves in any upper class establishment. He hears a lot of muttering and rumors about the actions of gangers in the area near his business, but he has done well at staying out of trouble for most of his life, aside from a few run ins with robbers, muggers and the like. In his environment, the concept of insurance hardly exists, so the few times his bakery has been broken into, the price was harsh. He keeps to his own. He has no true friends or family, just some common customers he engages in small talk with.

He cares nothing for the greater going ons of the world around him. If something does not directly affect him or his business he feels he has no time or energy to put toward it. The only things he cares about are his business and trying to enjoy his free time spent in his down trodden congested underhive apartment, sleeping in when he can afford to and coming up with new recipes, if he can bothered to even do that.

Weapons: A rather good set of bread knives and metal spatulas. He also keeps a metal pipe in the corner of his shop to fend away petty thieves.

He knows many of his customers are in significant gangs. He feeds them well, hoping if they are happy with his shop, they will leave him alone.

Equipment: Not much beyond his baking appliances and food supplies.

Do we have to be gangers, then? Not sure.
I would post again, but I'm not sure how far Asamodai wants us to go on our own. If I did post again I'd probably have Dolsa attack Kage, but that would likely need a response from the GM before the players decide what the outcome would be.

I don't think anyone's character would know Dolsa's name yet. Maybe Larsson who was listed as a frequent customer to his shop.
Probably man, we went from a couple pages in a couple days almost to almost nothing in a couple weeks. Weird. I was looking forward to playing a different kind of character haha
