You're lucky...punk...

Name: Silas Balder
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Physical Appearance: Dark tanned skin, light hazel eyes, and medium-length messy brown hair. Average height but slim body type.
Talents: Knowledgeable about gun-powder based technology of his time period and explosives. Is athletic, stealthy, and capable with a sword.
Persona: Silas is fueled by individualism, making him on the verge of being an anarchist. He despises authority, especially when those who are well-respected can use their political sway to make the wrongdoings they performed go away without a trace. Silas can be selfish at times, but only because his worldview is comprised entirely of "look out for #1 first, then help others when you've got things settled for yourself".
Preferred Weapon: Short swords, but also gunpowder-based items (ex: mini grenade).

Yes. I bother myself sometimes.

I'm going to join despite myself, because I'm foolish:


Name: Harry Barkle

Gender: Male

Age: 33

Physical Appearance: He's got friendly ol' eyes, and a rather good smile. He's got white hair, a full head of it as well as a beard, which is also white. In fact, he looks rather like Santa Clause (if he exists in your well developed world). There's a reason for all this, which'll be explained. He's really quite overweight, and he'll tell you this is to fit the fake persona he's built, but it's quite probably just because he's very rich and very hungry.

Talents: He's a good talker, and a good people person. Can talk his way out a variety of situations, and he's good at exploiting people's motives. He's a good actor, and people tend to notice his whole 'jolly fat man' act before they notice that, despite his good smile, his jolliness is never real. He's got a bit of skill at forging things, but not much, really. He's got okay at sleight of hand, in case he ever needs it for his, uh, job.

Persona: Firstly, and probably most importantly, he's a con artist. I decided to put that here, because there's no place for career. He takes advantage of the stupid, the selfish, general con artist stuff. And he's produced his fake persona for the eyes of his victims, to let them see what they want to see, and not the truth. His victims see a jolly fat man, so they don't pay attention to the fact that he's tricking them out of their money.

He really does, if not hate, is filled with shame for humanities short-comings. He'd know, after all; he's the one taking advantage of them. He does not trust people, on the whole, but will let someone special get in to his trust. He's deluded himself into thinking he's helping people by robbing the rich, like he is a robin hood figure, but that's not true; he just doesn't trick the poor because the poor don't have money. He disrespects humanity, on the whole, but not specifically. He can like someone if they've got flair, if they're smart, even if they can outplay him.

Preferred Weapon: His acting, his smile, his talking. He's not really very good at conventional weapons, although he can handle a knife a little. Not much, though.

I read your Anti-Heroes thread and think I grasp the concept.

Character Profile

Name: Vi Kalek (if that's not too fantastical).

Gender: Male

Age: 25

Physical Appearance: Small build with light red hair (it looks like average hair), brown sunken in eyes, and a narrow face.

Talents: Stalks and hides well. Not very skilled in combat. His agility is above average, but nothing special. Has basic knowledge in thievery (picking locks, hiding items, pick pocketing etc...), but is not an assassin.

Persona: Prefers smooth assimilation to standing out in a crowd. Very skeptical of others motives. Does things for his own gain, but will help anyone who he deems a friend. Could be considered neutral.
Preferred Weapon: A small dagger.

Will start once fourth character has applied.

Developed world is developed. Doesn't overly mean you need to know about it yet, however.

There will be jellyfish.

EDIT: Fourth character appeared while I was typing. Sweet Jesus. Expect something to happen soonish (Age of Empire II comes first).

You from Singapore?

Yes.

List of Dramatis Personae up...wait about for first chapter.

Once first chapter is done...wait about for pm updates and you can reply with actions when you're done. Business as usual.

Still taking more characters? Meh, here it is anyways. Took the House of Spades character and adjusted him, so he wouldn't go to waste.

Let me know if you want the name changed. I seriously don't mind coming up with a new name while you write the first chapter.

Name: Jack Alighieri
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Physical Appearance: He stands at 5 ft. 11 in. Slim, but muscular. (Because no one else is.). His hair is a dark chocolate, parted at the side, unkempt and reaching his chin. His eyes are of a mix between gold and orange. An ivory complexion covers his skin, and light stubble adorns his face.
Talents: Sneaking about; hiding. Fast learner.
Persona: Believes in doing what's best for himself. Does not mind having others at a disadvantage as long as it benefits him. If something's in it for him, he'll comply. He has the air of a typical mercenary.He is a calm, collected, and often reserved person. When he does speak, however, it is usually in a serious tone. He is not the kind of person to joke around, much less smile. He is a real bastard. Conflict, combat, war, is always something he's wanted to be a part of. It is what he believes his purpose is. To create war. To bathe in it. To set the gears in motion and watch.
Preferred Weapon: War scythe

First chapter done. Due to time restraints only two characters introduced...other two will have to wait for next chapter to decide actions.

Figure this will relieve workload and suchlike. Thus I might not buckle so quick.

Enjoy the raptors and shit. I told you there would be jellyfish.

...will include De-Loused possibly at some point.

Nice start. Can't wait to see who else the Jellyfish fucks over.

That jellyfish is a bastard.

If you're still accepting characters, here's mine. From House of Spades, changed somewhat.

Name Katalin Karolyi
Gender Female
Age mid-twenties
Physical Appearance She has a just-noticeable Hungarian accent, but it's not terribly thick...in fact it's most accurately described as slight Hungarian inflections in her speech. Her eyebrows are thick, but chic. She has a fairly prominent Roman nose, full lips, and sad, kind blue eyes. She has wavy, somewhat thin, auburn hair, a little past her shoulders. The build of her body is rather small, although she is average height. She has almost no boobs. She is pale and skinny.
Talents Very empathetic. Good fighter, although she's generally not the initiator of a fight. Not necessarily very strong, but she has endurance, agility, and knowledge of joint manipulation and nerves that cause extreme pain. She has a high pain threshold, although on the other hand she may go too far trying to avoid pain in the first place.
Persona Typical INFP personality type. Is generally easy to work with. Will try hard to work well with the rare person she does not like. She may at times seem aloof, but she's really quite the opposite. She's not concerned with being a leader or admired, in fact she doesn't like to consciously make herself look good. She feels her emotions deeply and purely, even as she dismisses them with reason. Introspective introvert that she is, she understands these facets of her personality very well, and often debates with herself. Although she is an introvert, and has subconsciously put up, figuratively speaking, a very thick wall, she generally really likes people, and is capable of making close friends. She has yet to confide everything to even her closest friends though. If she is in emotional pain, she can still hide it effectively, preferring to suck it up and deal with it on her own. She is known among her friends for her compassion and intelligence, but also for her sometimes goofy, sometimes black and sarcastic sense of humor.
Preferred Weapon dirk

Hurrah! Good start. Well, not so good for delightful Mr Barkle, but good writing. Good story. Good world-building so far. I am satisfied.

Also, I apologise formally for formerly being a dick.

I want moar. I want actions nao! >:}

I agree with the strange green-headed cat.

Hush, rugged country man with a strange lighter and awesome-looking cigarette and facial expression. Rushing Sindred practically ended all of his previous roleplays. Let's not rush him this time. *retracts previous comment about picking up the pace*
