Right...so, I think that The Adventures of ArmorGames was the biggest hit I ever had on this site, and figured I'd use the same principle; use player characters. So, I'm writing a mystery story. To keep the mystery element(you know, it's not nice to know the perpetrator beforehand), you may not pick what you are, though you may request it in my email(jjnapper@yahoo.in). I predict that this will be a big project, so I will be accepting only the best. Because this is a mystery story, your sheet must be detailed for there to be a good storyline and character depth, you know. So, I will be writing the story, but you will be giving me the characters. Not that I can't make my own characters, but I think that having yourself in a story is a lot of fun(Moat will be making a cameo, of course). I will not divulge any further. This is, after all, supposed to be a mystery.

Right...so, I will be accepting as many people as can be, then I will be picking the best from there.

hmmm, this is going to be interesting.....

Name: Mike Thomas
Age: 25
Gender: M
Weight: 70 kg
Height: 182 cm
Hair Color(style optional): Brown, never dresses his hair up.
Eye Color: Brown
Skin Color: Very pale,
Personality: Very anti-social, for good reasons. He is very cautious. When he does talk, Mike will always correct you, even if his answer is also wrong. He is generally in the background, considering many things. But since he doesn't have any friends, he'll open up and tell things he normally wouldn't if you get close enough.
Background: When he was in school, he made a friend in Elementary. That friend betrayed him, so Mike closed himself off from the rest of the world. He's of superior intellect, so he breezed through school. He didn't bother going to College, so instead he works as a programmer, so Mike can work at home.
What They Like: being in cold weather, being alone, music, and philosophizing.
What They Dislike: Sleeping in, being hot, standing in crowded rooms, and people who use others.
Iconography(what they usually carry with them): A phone (which he rarely uses), a pencil (he write calculations at random times with this), and Mike's clothes.
Miscellaneous: Whistles various tunes, for no particular reason.


Hope this is good enough.

Name: Quin Elijah Lee
Age: 18
Gender: M
Weight: 135 lb / 61 kg
Height: 5'8
Hair Color(style optional): Black. No really style, just really long. Likes to refer to it as 'a beautiful mane'
Eye Color: Very, very dark brown. Almost black.
Skin Color: Brown. Think Chinese colored.
Personality: Quiet, Likes to listen to people. Will firmly hold their ground in an argument/debate. Pretty slow to anger, but when angered, full fury is unleashed. Occasionally tells a joke. Rather meek, as he will try to avoid conflict unless necessary. Very blunt when talking about emotions and beliefs and the like, he doesn't like to just allude to things or just drop hints and hope they catch them. Very good work ethic, but if he starts procrastinating he can't stop. A little forgetful. Always thinking about others and what he can do to make their day better.
Background: His mother was American and his father was Chinese. Even though his dad knew how to speak Chinese, he didn't speak to Quin in Chinese, so he only knows English. His early childhood was pretty average, but when he got into junior high he discovered MMORPGs. He got hooked on them and started playing several. When he got into high school, he realized they were pointless, but over the years of continuous playing he gained the ability to see a good game. He was always rather smart, but kind of lazy, and ended up getting 'A-'s and 'B+'s just because he forgot to do homework or didn't want to. He just graduated college and doesn't know what he wants to major in, though he jokingly says he wants to be the director of a power plant. In this time of indecision, he spends his time reading books, scouring the internet, making random drawings. He is hoping for some kind of new adventure in his life to inspire him.
What They Like: Sleeping, Eating, Debate, Internet, Reading, Drawing, MMORPGs
What They Dislike: Precipitation, Large Social Events, Watches
Iconography(what they usually carry with them): A tuque [in case somebody is offended by a male with long hair], a pen, a key to his house.
Miscellaneous: Not really all that athletic or strong. Wants to work for a power plant managing and monitoring the amount of power produced so he can call himself a 'ower ranger.' Has very little skill for learning new languages.

Playa, you need to be much more specific. I don't know Spiderman's height. And you need weight in pounds.
I'm not sure when I'll start the story.

Name: Gerard Spencer
Occupation: Police consultant
Age: 27
Personality: Not particularly diligent, and generally enjoys vacation more than work. He can be very sly when trying to drag out information and is an inquisitive man. He is fairly intelligent. He likes to get every detail possible about any given case before acting upon it and doesn't allow any loose ends. Can be a jokester, but is very serious when it comes to serious matters; does not stand for disrespect for the dead.
Background: He has worked for his local police department for just under 5 years. His father worked on the original Forbes case, but found no evidence and never found his killer. Other than that, he had no direct connections with Forbes.
Skills: Fairly observant, able to piece together relatively unconnected pieces of evidence with ease.
Weaknesses: Kryptonite. Just kidding, he isn't that focused.
Items: None.

Okay, as you know Moat, I just pulled this straight from your Mystery Game. You want I should detail it further?

Yeayeah. It's easy enough, just add the stuff in the OP.
And could you give him a more tangible weakness than Kryptonite? My supply of the stuff has gone dry and I lost Gene Hackman's number. xP
