Setting You're a 17 year old boy/girl, in modern 2009, who's been kicked out of your house by your cruel stepdad. You had a hobby of street running and now you have to use it to survive here in the cruel, harsh streets. You've got to avoid gangs, or join them. Get beaten up, or beat them. Get caught, or avoid them. You've got to do what it takes to keep on living; fight, steal and run.
Classes and Stats Stats govern how well you can do different things- -Strength shows how well you can lift objects, use weapons and other phsical related activities not covered by any other skills. -Intelligence shows how well you are when it comes to computers and logical choices. -Charisma shows how well you can get out of something by convincing other people. It shows how popular you can get. However, a high Charisma can also mean that you can't blend in with crowds as well. -Acrobatics shows how well you can run, wallrun, climb and other things of that sort. -Stealth is how well you can get around from one place to another without getting seen or heard.
Depending on which class you use, you must use the initial stats given below for your beginning character. Athlete Strength: 5 Intelligence: 2 Charisma: 2 Acrobatics: 4 Stealth: 3
The "Social Status Bar" measures how far you are up the social ladder. It goes like this: Outcast, Tramp, Looked down upon, Teachers pet, smart guy, average, Known, Well known, Popular, Very popular, Socialite
For now three people can join. Parsat has already reserved a space so it is not infact two. Please restrain from all choosing Athlete or something. Try something new like being a Hacker. However, there is no rule against it. First Come First Serve basis
One last thing. I want people who are going to be replying moderately-frequently. I can't handle someone who's just come back from page 1 when we're on page 10. So I'm also putting a three day time limit by in which if you don't reply you'll be kicked unless you give me a proper excuse. For example, you're going to your grandmas house for four days and she doesn't have internet there.
@Sonny, I'm a Turk but I live in England. @Sporex, sorry we're full @Riou, yep
Paw You give her the money [take away the money] and walk out. You're strolling the streets when it suddenly becomes all quiet everywhere. Suddenly, a man, previusly hidden to you, jumps out of nowhere! "You there! I've been seeing what you've been doing lately... we've been watching you for a long time..." "Who are you!?" "I represent the Metal Knife gang, we have come to you for a proposition... Would you like to j-" Another man jumps out, slightly older but he seems more experienced. "Hold it! Young man don't listen to him and his tales of gang warfare! Join the Red Dragons! We are experienced and we can offer you many rewa-" Suddenly, unknowingly, another person, this time a girl about your age jumps out of the shadows. "Shut up old man! Listen, I represent the Green Kicks. Join us and you'll never be in trouble in the streets ever!" A) Join the Metal Knives B) Join the Red Dragons C) Join the Green Kicks D) Go solo
*Yawn* sorry, too tired to carry on and I'm amking mistakes with my typing allreayd :S
No Maverick, you can't join we're full (is getting tired of seeing this) doesn't anyone check?
Paul You wake up one day, refreshed and happy, when you hear your stepdad shout at you from downstairs. You, ot responding, pack your belongings and leave through the window. You land on his car, the alarm doesn't go off, so you smash in the windows until they do. Just for revenge. You walk on through the streets, involving yourself with the world around you and taking every detail in. You wander down an alleyway to get to an opposite street when a sleevless shirted man walks out towards you. The man has a red dragon tatooed to his shoulder... "You! I ahev come to make a proposal to you about joining our group, the Red Dragons. We promise you wealth and property over other people!" You are about to open your mouth to say something when a girl jumps out of the top of one of the buildings which your walking through. She grabs onto a pipe leading downwards before kicking off onto the other side and wall running...downwards!? She leaps off at the last second and makes her own proposal for you to join the Metal Knives. They offer you increased strength and physical prowess. Then, unsurprisingly [sounding familiar yet?] a man sprints from the direction in which you had come and asks you the same thing, to join the Green Kicks, which offer you protection and friends. What do you do? A) Go solo B) Red Dragons C) Green Kicks D) Metal Knives
Max You sleep where you found your bag. It's a half comfortable sleep...You wake up slowly to the sound of rustling leaves. You sit up and see two girls, about your age, going through your bag! You stand up and shout at them to stop. They get up too and brandish knives. You see two words tatooed on their arms- "Metal Knives". They tell you: "Join us, our gang, or we will kill you now!" A man and a woman, slghtly older, come out behind you, and say: "Shut up you girls! Join us! We are the Red Dragons and we offer you wealth and prosperity in your life!" They wield a handgun, the woman, and the man holds a slightly long knife. Another two people jump out, this time two men. "Shut up oldie! We are the Green Kicks! We offer you many friends and contacts to protect you!" A) Try to run from their mini-gang war. B) Join the Red Dragons in their fight. C) Join the Green Kicks "--------------" D) Join the Metal Knives "-------------" E) FIght them all.
Paw/ You say, "No thanks, I'd rather not join gangs at this moment in time." "What!?" They all shout at the same time. The GK ambassador tells you if you don't join they'll fight you. The others agree, albeit slowly... You've got to make a choice quick, or fight them! A) Red Dragosns B) Green Kicks C) Metal Knives D) Fight them [insert battle strategy here] E) Attempt to run
Aah Paw I didn't want to kill your character that early...
Paw You head over to the Red Dragons side, they're the best equipped... You say, "Sorry but I'm going to have to go with th-" You lash out and take the mans handgun which was in it's hidden holster. THe man is so surprised after his intial 'win', that he barely struggles. You point the gun in their direction. You tell the Red Dragon not to move, and you creep behind him slowly. You kick him in the side with your right foot and punch with your free hand into his back. He doubles over, too low to headbutt, so you kick him again in the ankle, causing him to fall over. The girl takes advantage of your sudden attack and attacks you herself. She claws at your face, but you duck and headbutt her in the stomach. She goes backwards, as the other man, from the Metal Knives, fires a punch at your stomach. You get the hit full on, and you stumble backwards, dropping your gun. You come back with a flurry of weak but fast strikes but the Metal Knives man dodges. He takes out, unsurprisingly, a metal knife, and dashes at you with it. You jump onto a dustbin to get the height advantage. The Red Dragon ambassador, is now slowly standing up, your fallen gun in his hand. He shoots and before you know it, you're right calf is screaming in pain. You fall off the dustbin, spraining your lower arm. The Metal Knife man, comes over to you, and makes the bullet hole deeper by stabbing you there. You are on the floor backing off... The gangs say, in turn, "You are now an enemy of the Red Dragons/Metal Knives/Green Kicks. Don't disturb us and if we see you, we will hurt you!" The three of them were too much for you and you drag yourself through the alleyway to the busy,bustling pedestrian area. You call out for help and you see ten people rushing towards you in concern... You black out... [b]Add to Rivals, Red Dragons, Metal Knives, Green Kicks. Energy: Extremely Low. Hunger: Slightly hungry. Status: Severely wounded, losing blood fast.]
Since you've blacked out and are injured, you have to wait 12 hours real time to come back to consciousness...or receive the news
I said to sleep on the roof tops...but oh well. If we're still in the alley, I use my acrobatics to wall jump up the sides of the alleyway and grab whatever railing is there to make my escape.
