Backstory:
It’s the year 2012 in some suburban city called Claysburg, somewhere in Ohio, with a population of around 7,000, I think. You were just relaxin’ at home, maybe with a wife and kids, or completely alone playing your life away on some MMORPG, like a nerd, you nerd. Maybe you were at work. Maybe you at home, working, while playing WoW, while RP-ing on the forums, with a wife and kids, while being a nerd (If you can actually do this, you are Chuck Norris). Whatever.
All that you know is that the military started evacuating people from Claysburg, you included. They then introduced a lockdown on the city after they evacuated all they could. Why, you may ask? Simple. Creepers. Lot’s of ‘em. The city of Claysburg has a set of catacombs running beneath the sewers, which run beneath the streets of Claysburg.
The mass of dead bodies opened up essentially an area where demons could come into our world. Why did they choose Claysburg, rather than, say, D.C.? Simple. The corpse of one of there other demons was there, when they first sent demons in the medieval era. The demons did what evil demons do and released spores into the catacombs. The spores became mushrooms, which then somehow grew into creepers. The creepers are pretty much the advance army of the demons. But you don’t know that yet. The creepers then proceeded to blow the sh** out of everything, including you vintage collection of Star Trek dolls. Scary!
Now, the military supposedly re-got control of the city of Claysburg, after about 4 weeks,. So, they let some people back into the city, about 500, through one of the highways. They took buses, then were dropped off at the entrance to the city. Unfortunately, the military never had control of the city again. So, why did they let those poor souls back into the affectionately nicknamed “Creepersburg”? You’ll find out later.
Also, the only way to stop this blight is to enter the portal, and kill all the demons responsible. Which is going to be near impossible. Good luck! Oh, and shooting a creeper in the stomach makes it explode, since that is where the sulpher is. Happy exploding!
Explanation of the city.
It's about 5 miles in diameter, with a highway running down the middle. The east, west, and south parts are generally residential (WEEEEEEEEEESSSSSST SSSSIIIIIIIIIIDEEEEEE!), while the northern part is more offices and shops and the college. We start in the southern part of the highway. You can try to leave, but all the exits are blocked off by military quarantines.
FOR NOW.

9. You may have more than one characters. Heck, have an entire family. Wife/husband, kids, maybe even a pet. You’ll need a separate app for each though, and you’ll need to control them all yourself, along with memorize each of their conditions.
10. It is highly likely you will die at some point. Don’t worry, just make another app.

Have you RP’ed before?: (I won’t hold it against you, I’m just looking to see your experience.)*
*Only needs to be used on one character, not all of them.
Current members: Italics = Me. Underline = Moderator. Bold = Dead. (In game, not IRL!)
Occupation: College Student. Works at McCreepers (the McDonalds, essentially) on the side.
Skills: He is generally quite smart. Also, he can cook well, and he loves to cook.. Aside from that, not much special. His strength and speed are both average, and he never used a weapon in his life.
Personality: He is generally passive, and doesn’t like to fight. He tends to look at stuff in an analytical perspective. He also likes having the approval of others, whether he knows it or not, and also doesn’t like it when someone gets angry. Ironically, he gets angry sometimes when someone else gets angry at him for no reason he can see.
Appearance: He’s about normal height, normal weight. 5’13 (Just kidding! It’s 6’1) and weighs 167 lbs. He has short, brown hair. Slightly tan, and has hazel eyes.
Biography: He had a somewhat normal life growing up. His family was middle-class, and consisted of him, his parents, a dog, and 2 sisters. In school, he tended to be one of the socially awkward types, but excelled at Science, Mathematics, and English classes. He still hated history, though. No-one likes history.
He had some close friends, but never had a girlfriend. Even when he moved to college, he was still single. He made some close friends of course, though. When the evacuation started, he grabbed his signature chef knife he always uses when cooking, and his laptop. Oddly enough, when the 500 people were allowed back in, none of his family or friends were ones picked. He was, though.
Items: His college backpack, which has a netbook laptop and his favorite chef knife. Aside from that, nothing.
Additional info: Did I mention he has Aspergers Syndrome? Before someone yells at me for making fun of autism, I have it. So shut it, you haters. Also, he loves peaches. Yum.
Anything I should add: I’m me, so yes. MORE NYAN CAT! And I should probably get better at writing with a scary tone, since I make it look comical.
Have you RP’ed before?: Yes. I’ve been in 3 RP’s, Chivalry is Dead, Crimson Mist, and The Necro’tyr. Also, I’m currently running Chivalry is Dead: Chapter 2, so I have some experience running an RP.

Don't take this as there is nothing that could cause sadness. I just mean it's pointless to dwell on it. I mean, depression is so boring.
Character’s name: Jeramin
Age: 25
Sex: Male
Occupation: Woodcutter
Skills: Jeramin is good at woodcutting, therefore may be good at melee combat. He isn't good at strategy, and he's got muscle from working in the forest.
Personality: Jeramin is sort of a timid guy, but sometimes makes rash decisions.
Appearance: Jeramin has short, blonde hair, bright blue eyes, pale skin, he's sort of buff, but at the same time skinny.
Biography: Jeramin lived a pretty normal life before the town became Creepersburg. On the day of the invasion, he was deep in the forest. He was chopping trees with his friend, John. Suddenly, his radio came on and the woodcutting leader said, "Get... *static* Out... *static* CREEPERS! AAH! *explosion*." Jeramin and John started to run, Jeramin being in front. Behind him, he heard "Sssssssssss..." He turned around and said "John, no!" The explosion knocked John back, and a tree fell on him, killing him. He mourned the loss of his friend and decided if he stayed in any longer, he would die too. He ran out. He hitched a ride in the back of a truck, and jumped out at his house. His family was dead. He spent the next two days hiding in alleys and such. One day an evac saw him and told him to get in. He jumped in. He spent the next month in a different town, until one day, he boarded a bus back to Creepersburg. He was sure the creepers weren't there anymore. Boy was he wrong...
Items: He has normal every day clothes, and a key to his house that for some reason, he never threw away. He has a backpack to store this stuff in, and a wallet with about $250 in it. Like that would matter though.
Anything I should add: Maybe a map of Creepersburg on the first post.
Have you RP’ed before?: Yes, in a few RP's.
$*$
A few years? This takes place about a month after the evacuation, which was about 3 days after they started swarming the place. Also, coal miner? I don't think they have coal mines anywhere in Ohio. Change that up a bit, and I'll probably accept you.

It'd be nice to amass enough blocks for a serious construction using these templates. Instead of having fake temples and castles, I could have real fake temples and castles <3
"A Jum RP"? You made me feel special. :3 The sarcasm is just how I write, so don't worry, it will be a serious RP. Just with more sarcasm.
On a side note, you dun have to use OOC yet, we didn't start yet. :3

This is how he became the bully because he got tired of being constantly picked on. One day a kid by the name of Johnny Nickkles asked him how he liked be the only "retard" in the nation? Of course this didn't settle well with Jorge, Johnny was in the hospital for about a month running on life support.
All through middle school and high school Jorge was lifting weights. He would go in before and after school. He would constantly get into fights with the other kids. He was the most intimidating out of everyone because of his height, his facial hair which was already a full grown goatee by the age of 15, and his sheer muschles. He would torture and torment other kids just because of what he had gone through.

Items: Hard hat, tool belt(with hammer, pouch for nails and screws, and a tape measurer) Contact card, and cell phone.
Additional info: Has moments where he can't remeber where things are. Likes to eat chicken. Can't understand big words.
Anything I should add: More detail for the plot of the story, and the whole reason how the creepers decided to come maybe?
A few years? This takes place about a month after the evacuation, which was about 3 days after they started swarming the place. Also, coal miner? I don't think they have coal mines anywhere in Ohio. Change that up a bit, and I'll probably accept you.
Edited my app. Geography is not my strong subject. Hopefully there are trees in Ohio :tongue.gif:

"...Billions of lighthouses, stuck at the far end of the sky."
@69FoYou, denied. Your character is about as generic as you can get. He's seriosly just the Generic Jock template.
@Absolete, Care to elaborate? Is it just the sarcasm that makes it silly or the story itself?

Hmmm, seems cool. I might join if I have the time, but I'm already in Viral Beasts right now and I'm not very good at multi-tasking
I like how the plot is pretty original. When I saw the name, I was like Oh God, this is gonna be a repeat of all the other RPs where you can be a monster.
But you suprised me with the original plot :smile.gif:
Personally, I didn't expect people would find "Creepers from hell take over city and now you must go in for some reason I have yet to think of" original. Heheh.
Thanks though.

Character’s name: Zeke Draigo Age: 28 Years Old Sex: Male Occupation: Doctor Skills: Zeke was a very good doctor, who excelled in medicine. However, he does not know how to use any herbs, he only knows how to treat with modern day medicine. Zeke is an excellent thief, but his skills have been out of use for a couple of years. Zeke is extremely smart, and usually thinks out of a situation. He is not very strong, and does not have a lot of stamina. Making a rescue mission, or a holdout very difficult for him. Or just running. A lot. Personality: Zeke is always observing his surroundings, and usually stays very quiet. He is every calculating, and can just sit and think for a long time. He can be nice to his friends, and will usually always help them in a desperate situation. He always takes care of his patients to the very end, no matter what. Appearance: Zeke is pretty tall, standing at 6 feet and 2 inches. He is fairly skinny, but lacks muscle. He has short black hair, and dark, deep, brown eyes. He has a short goatee. He has small cuts on his hands from an operating mistake in the past. He has not been on an operating table since. He is usually seen with bags under eyes due to lack of sleep. Biography: Zeke was born in a poor family in the backtown of Claysburg. His father left his mother after his birth, and was never seen again. He was the third oldest in his family, with 4 brothers and 3 sisters. Over the years, his poor family grew smaller. Three of his brothers and sisters disappeared from disease, murder, and kidnapping. Two more of his siblings ran away from home together, hoping to find a better life. Soon, he was only left with his oldest brother and sister. At age 19, Zeke was ditching school, and stealing from homes. Until one day when he got the horrible news that his mother was sick with an unknown disease. Heartbroken, Zeke could only watch as his mother slowly died. Promising to cure her, Zeke joined a medical school, and vowed to become a doctor and help lives. He got the money by stealing from rich homes, and selling them on a black market. He finally got enough money to join a night school. However, only after a week his mother had died. Staying on his word, Zeke stayed in school, staying in the same class for many years. Finally, when he was 25, Zeke managed to graduate and find a job as a doctor. He has been working hard since, helping his patients. He has not married, and has no kids. Items: (I'm guessing this counts clothes.) Zeke wears black, long trousers, held up by a leather belt. He has a white polo t-shirt, with a doctor's jacket over that. He wears rubber gloves to cover up his scars. He has leather shoes, that are fit for work, but not for rocks. He has his glasses, that he needs to see. He also wears a watch. At the time, all Zeke had was his basic doctors kit. This included: Band-aids, Bandages, Antibiotics, Basic Medicine (For fevers and stuff.), syringes, scissors, a few veils, and a scalpel. Oh, he was also carrying a few packs of cigarettes and a lighter. Nothing that would help him survive in the wilderness. Except the lighter. Kinda.
Additional info: Fun facts! Zeke has minor insomnia, and is a very light sleeper. (Not necessarily good.) Zeke is almost blind without his glasses. Zeke is a smoker, much to his co-workers objections. Zeke is allergic to bees. Zeke cannot swim. Zeke loves steak. Yum. Anything I should add: I don't know... a basic description of Claystown and its facilities? Have you RP’ed before?: ... No. (JK)
@69FoYou, still denied. The bio is crap, and naming your guy after an obsure type of bread is silly, in the stupid way.
Oh, and you forgot the $*$.
@Crafting, is it necessary to make your guy a freakin' giant at 7'6"? Also, "His brothers and sisters disappeared from disease, murders, and kidnappings." makes it seem as though murders and kidnappings happen commonly. They do not. Also, how did he afford medical school by essentially being a thief, something you seem to have forgotten in the skills section, since he'd need to be a master thief to never be caught like that. Change that (or explain), and I'll probably approve.
Also, by (semi) popular demand, I added an "explanation of the city" section, for reference. It will be edited to include important locations when we find them, and crap.

Age: 22.
Sex: Male.
Occupation: College Student. Works at McCreepers (the McDonalds, essentially) on the side.
Skills: He is generally quite smart. Also, he can cook well, and he loves to cook.. Aside from that, not much special. His strength and speed are both average, and he never used a weapon in his life.
Personality: He is generally passive, and doesn’t like to fight. He tends to look at stuff in an analytical perspective. He also likes having the approval of others, whether he knows it or not, and also doesn’t like it when someone gets angry. Ironically, he gets angry sometimes when someone else gets angry at him for no reason he can see.
Appearance: He’s about normal height, normal weight. 5’13 (Just kidding! It’s 6’1) and weighs 167 lbs. He has short, brown hair. Slightly tan, and has hazel eyes.
Biography: He had a somewhat normal life growing up. His family was middle-class, and consisted of him, his parents, a dog, and 2 sisters. In school, he tended to be one of the socially awkward types, but excelled at Science, Mathematics, and English classes. He still hated history, though. No-one likes history.
He had some close friends, but never had a girlfriend. Even when he moved to college, he was still single. He made some close friends of course, though. When the evacuation started, he grabbed his signature chef knife he always uses when cooking, and his laptop. Oddly enough, when the 500 people were allowed back in, none of his family or friends were ones picked. He was, though.
Items: His college backpack, which has a netbook laptop and his favorite chef knife. Aside from that, nothing.
Additional info: Did I mention he has Aspergers Syndrome? Before someone yells at me for making fun of autism, I have it. So shut it, you haters. Also, he loves peaches. Yum.
Anything I should add: I’m me, so yes. MORE NYAN CAT! And I should probably get better at writing with a scary tone, since I make it look comical.
Have you RP’ed before?: Yes. I’ve been in 3 RP’s, Chivalry is Dead, Crimson Mist, and The Necro’tyr. Also, I’m currently running Chivalry is Dead: Chapter 2, so I have some experience running an RP.

Don't take this as there is nothing that could cause sadness. I just mean it's pointless to dwell on it. I mean, depression is so boring.
Character’s name: Jeramin
Age: 25
Sex: Male
Occupation: Woodcutter
Skills: Jeramin is good at woodcutting, therefore may be good at melee combat. He isn't good at strategy, and he's got muscle from working in the forest.
Personality: Jeramin is sort of a timid guy, but sometimes makes rash decisions.
Appearance: Jeramin has short, blonde hair, bright blue eyes, pale skin, he's sort of buff, but at the same time skinny.
Biography: Jeramin lived a pretty normal life before the town became Creepersburg. On the day of the invasion, he was deep in the forest. He was chopping trees with his friend, John. Suddenly, his radio came on and the woodcutting leader said, "Get... *static* Out... *static* CREEPERS! AAH! *explosion*." Jeramin and John started to run, Jeramin being in front. Behind him, he heard "Sssssssssss..." He turned around and said "John, no!" The explosion knocked John back, and a tree fell on him, killing him. He mourned the loss of his friend and decided if he stayed in any longer, he would die too. He ran out. He hitched a ride in the back of a truck, and jumped out at his house. His family was dead. He spent the next two days hiding in alleys and such. One day an evac saw him and told him to get in. He jumped in. He spent the next month in a different town, until one day, he boarded a bus back to Creepersburg. He was sure the creepers weren't there anymore. Boy was he wrong...
Items: He has normal every day clothes, and a key to his house that for some reason, he never threw away. He has a backpack to store this stuff in, and a wallet with about $250 in it. Like that would matter though.
Anything I should add: Maybe a map of Creepersburg on the first post.
Have you RP’ed before?: Yes, in a few RP's.

Edited my app. Geography is not my strong subject. Hopefully there are trees in Ohio :tongue.gif:
"...Billions of lighthouses, stuck at the far end of the sky."
@69FoYou, denied. Your character is about as generic as you can get. He's seriosly just the Generic Jock template.
@Absolete, Care to elaborate? Is it just the sarcasm that makes it silly or the story itself?
Don't take this as there is nothing that could cause sadness. I just mean it's pointless to dwell on it. I mean, depression is so boring.
I like how the plot is pretty original. When I saw the name, I was like Oh God, this is gonna be a repeat of all the other RPs where you can be a monster.
But you suprised me with the original plot :smile.gif:
Thanks though.

Changed: Name, Age, Occupation, Bio, and Skills
Age: 28 Years Old
Sex: Male
Occupation: Doctor
Skills: Zeke was a very good doctor, who excelled in medicine. However, he does not know how to use any herbs, he only knows how to treat with modern day medicine. Zeke is an excellent thief, but his skills have been out of use for a couple of years. Zeke is extremely smart, and usually thinks out of a situation. He is not very strong, and does not have a lot of stamina. Making a rescue mission, or a holdout very difficult for him. Or just running. A lot.
Personality: Zeke is always observing his surroundings, and usually stays very quiet. He is every calculating, and can just sit and think for a long time. He can be nice to his friends, and will usually always help them in a desperate situation. He always takes care of his patients to the very end, no matter what.
Appearance: Zeke is pretty tall, standing at 6 feet and 2 inches. He is fairly skinny, but lacks muscle. He has short black hair, and dark, deep, brown eyes. He has a short goatee. He has small cuts on his hands from an operating mistake in the past. He has not been on an operating table since. He is usually seen with bags under eyes due to lack of sleep.
Biography: Zeke was born in a poor family in the backtown of Claysburg. His father left his mother after his birth, and was never seen again. He was the third oldest in his family, with 4 brothers and 3 sisters. Over the years, his poor family grew smaller. Three of his brothers and sisters disappeared from disease, murder, and kidnapping. Two more of his siblings ran away from home together, hoping to find a better life. Soon, he was only left with his oldest brother and sister. At age 19, Zeke was ditching school, and stealing from homes. Until one day when he got the horrible news that his mother was sick with an unknown disease. Heartbroken, Zeke could only watch as his mother slowly died. Promising to cure her, Zeke joined a medical school, and vowed to become a doctor and help lives. He got the money by stealing from rich homes, and selling them on a black market. He finally got enough money to join a night school. However, only after a week his mother had died. Staying on his word, Zeke stayed in school, staying in the same class for many years. Finally, when he was 25, Zeke managed to graduate and find a job as a doctor. He has been working hard since, helping his patients. He has not married, and has no kids.
Items: (I'm guessing this counts clothes.) Zeke wears black, long trousers, held up by a leather belt. He has a white polo t-shirt, with a doctor's jacket over that. He wears rubber gloves to cover up his scars. He has leather shoes, that are fit for work, but not for rocks. He has his glasses, that he needs to see. He also wears a watch. At the time, all Zeke had was his basic doctors kit. This included: Band-aids, Bandages, Antibiotics, Basic Medicine (For fevers and stuff.), syringes, scissors, a few veils, and a scalpel. Oh, he was also carrying a few packs of cigarettes and a lighter. Nothing that would help him survive in the wilderness. Except the lighter. Kinda.
Additional info: Fun facts! Zeke has minor insomnia, and is a very light sleeper. (Not necessarily good.) Zeke is almost blind without his glasses. Zeke is a smoker, much to his co-workers objections. Zeke is allergic to bees. Zeke cannot swim. Zeke loves steak. Yum.
Anything I should add: I don't know... a basic description of Claystown and its facilities?
Have you RP’ed before?: ... No. (JK)

Oh, and you forgot the $*$.
@Crafting, is it necessary to make your guy a freakin' giant at 7'6"? Also, "His brothers and sisters disappeared from disease, murders, and kidnappings." makes it seem as though murders and kidnappings happen commonly. They do not. Also, how did he afford medical school by essentially being a thief, something you seem to have forgotten in the skills section, since he'd need to be a master thief to never be caught like that. Change that (or explain), and I'll probably approve.
Also, by (semi) popular demand, I added an "explanation of the city" section, for reference. It will be edited to include important locations when we find them, and crap.

OKAY! Finally fixed it to where it seemed more realistic.
