This roleplay seems interesting. I have a few questions, though. Are there restrictions on these "wishes," or are they open-ended? Should they be slightly realistic, or, if I wished, could my character wish to become a wizard or something? Do the characters start in this Rift, or the physical world?

Thanks PK! Never expected to catch your attention.

The wishes are extremely open-ended, but how they are granted is based upon interpretation. For example, a person wanting to be a wizard might become a "wiz" in technology, but impossibly wishes such as magical abilities are also available. Also, yes the characters will (usually) start off in the Rift, depending upon each users own preference though. So if someone wishes to have their character start off before they enter the Rift or having them be Rift veterans, either is fine so long as by the first or second post they have joined the inbetween realm.

Post by RiverHurt »

This look interesting so heres my charries!(Kind of long but i was REALLY bored in Science class (the teacher sounds like a flipping robot)):

Username: Riverhurt
Name: Isabella Cari Drake, she goes by Cari.
Spoiler
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Appearance: {Picture on sims}
Cari is only about 5'1 but she is still growing, she has tan skin just a little lighter than her twins. Cari has long strawberry blonde hair that goes down to her back. She has almond shaped eyes that are a gorgeous ice blue color. She wears a silver chain around her neck with a big blue diamond on her neck that might be the legendary black diamond that came from the rift that her deceased mother gave to her. Cari wears her hair up in a ponytail or in a braid somethings she will just wear it down.
Personality: Cari is a nice girl who loves to laughs and she is very loyal and honest to her friends. She is never mean to people and she loves to help people out of bad situations. Shes not that dependent on on anyone shes more independent unless shes badly hurt then shes usually dependent on her twin. Cari seems like she would be always happy but she isn't always happy because of her past.
History: Cari was born one month to early with her twin brother Haydn on November 25th,1991. She was a breech baby so her mother had to be in labor for seven more hours after giving birth to Haydn, 3 hours pushing and crying, then four when they found out she was a breech baby but Cari's mother couldn't have a c-section but she was born and a miracle baby being only 1 pound, but it came with health issues and she can't do anything that will strain herself or she could slip into a coma and die...
When Cari and Haydn were five they we're playing out in the fields in front of their house, when a cougar came out of the nearby forest and started chasing them back to the mansion. Both twins were terrified and cried for their older brother or their parents but they wouldn't make it because it was too far from the house adnt heir parents didn't care the only people in the house that cared was their siblings and the nannys and all in the house. When suddenly a gorgeous black horse came out standing in front of the twins and rearing out at the cougar to get it away from the twins after it gave the cougar some wounds. Cari named the stallion Smoke and stayed with the horse up until she could ride Smoke and rode him every day after school.
When Cari was 17 she found her husband a hunky senior who was one of the popular guys in school. When they both graduated they got married then had a little boy named Sam. When Sam was a few months old Cari's mother was killed by a con man in a brutal murder and Cari lost her best friend in the world.
When Cari turned 22 a few weeks ago she found out her husband was having a affair with a local stripper. She kicked him out of the house and kept Sam, the horses, and the whole estate. When a few weeks had passed she was walking to work and she was suddenly dragged into a alleyway and raped by her ex husband impregnating her again and caused her to get a restraining order against him. When she heard about the creator she took the chance but she regretted it and she was sent to the rift.
Attribute:Death {I'll tell what she can do in abilities}
Ability: She is just like a necromancer but she only see the dead and talk to them. If she tried to raise them it would kill her on the spot.
Other:She's three weeks pregnant with her ex-husbands daughter and son, and left a two year old with her parents because she got sent to the rift.
Username: Riverhurt
Name: Haydn Sam Drake just goes by Haydn
Spoiler
Age: 22 just about seven hours older than Cari
Gender: Male
Appearance:(I'll make a sim for him for image}
Haydn is 5'5 and is still growing, he has tan skin just a tad darker than his twin. He has longish strawberry blonde hair that he usually has in a ponytail. Haydn also has almond shaped eyes and the gorgeous Ice blue color. He wears a necklace that has a wolf and a moon pendant on it. He has some scars all his body from picking fights and protecting his twin.
Haydn usually wears a tunic and black leggings with his black riding boots. If he's not wearing that he has a muscle shirt on,shorts, and sneakers also with a bag that carries all of his and Cari's stuff.
Personality: Haydn is just like his twin. But he can also be quite quiet and he can be shy around new people because he's not that rusting of people. But besides all that Haydn is a very good friend to have because he'll never let you down or leave you alone. He always will protect people despite what ever happens.
History: The same as Cari, but he wasn't a breech baby and it took only 2 hours for him to come. Haydn grew terrified of cougars after the attack but he soon grew up and wasn't scared of them anymore. When Haydn was 8 he started going into a time of depression, even pushing Cari away for a little while during the time of depression but he brought her back but he was still depressed his last years in elementary up to his junior year of high school because a lot had happened to him. He is still fighting against the depression but hides it from everyone even his own twin.
When Cari met Josh, Haydn instantly hated Josh because he was afraid for his twin and he had heard Josh was a player and had hurt a lot of girls. When everything happened Haydn became more protective of his twin and they both asked for gifts from the creator but were soon sent to the rift leaving Cari's 2 year old son Sam and Haydn's pregnant girlfriend with their parents so they could get rid of their gifts but now they came into the rift.
Attribute: Life
Ability: He can bring animals to life only if he draws or writes it. The only things he can bring to life are small animals to small dogs but other than that it will most likely take his energy.
Other: He is the only one able to call Cari Isabella without being killed by her. He also carries a drawing pad and a notebook.

Welcome RiverHurt! :wave:

I mentioned this in the original thread, but the abilities granted by the Attribute are supposed to be "weak and near useless on it's own". This is to encourage partnering between characters, as their abilities will grow and mutate, if you will, when they bond with a partner. I probably should've mentioned it in the skeletons as well though as to avoid confusion. :t-sweat:

I'm sorry to ask, but would you please change their abilities?

Haydn's ability sill is a little bit too powerful; dogs are extremely useful as even small dogs were raised to help hunt. Before I accept, would you please adjust that? Also, while images aren't necessary, since you're making ones for them anyway I would prefer to wait for those before putting these two into the character list. It'll be easier than editing the list a bunch of times until the forms are complete.

Re: The Rift OoC

Post by DewDrop12 »

Hello! :3 I scouted this out the other night and I was really impressed by the premise. o3o I've somehow managed to create a monster of a form, so if there's any place where I've overstepped my boundaries, do tell me and I'll be happy to change it.

Username: DewDrop12
Name: Irina Krysov
Spoiler
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance: Irina has a rather hard look about her. Even with a heart-shaped face and high cheekbones, her too thin lips are curled in such a way that it looks as though she’s permanently scowling…or snarling – whichever fits her best in that instance. The combination of narrow eyes and high, thinly crafted brows also don’t aid her; instead of looking the part of sickly sweet, she appears to always be supremely pissed off.

Irina is a rather curvy girl – all hips and legs that go on for miles – but her bust is, for lack of a better word, suffering. She usually dons tops with the intention to accentuate her charms, as there’s not much to look at without the extra help. She intended to get work done as soon as she was of age, but inevitably lost the opportunity after she was convicted of murder.

At a happy height of 5’6”, Irina finds clothing to be no burden. Her shoulders are a bit broad, however, and with the combination of her small bust, she occasionally struggles to find shirts that don’t pinch in the shoulders or hang too loose against her chest. It was after she came into her own as a young adult that she started having her outfits custom-made, just to avoid the hassle of her imperfections. She personally prefers to wear dark colors, as she finds they compliment her dark eyes and fair complexion.

One of Irina’s most immediately noticeable flaws is her hair. She has unnaturally coarse, dry hair - brittle, almost. It embarrassed her as a child, but as she grew, she came not to care and found herself enjoying wearing her brown hair long.

In the Rift, Irina will be found dressed in an orange long-sleeved shirt and pants, courtesy of the prison she was being held in. The shirt will be too tight in the shoulders and too loose at the bust. Her hair will also be in a poorly cut bob of dark hair.

Personality: Irina is arrogant. She has little to no sympathy or patience for others, and vastly prefers her own company over anything else. But it’s not because she’s stone-hearted, rather because she doesn’t trust others. From her experience in the two extremes of wealth – dirty poor and filthy rich – she learned early on that the world was cruel; that there was no one she could trust but herself. Irina is fiercely judgmental of others simply because she understands the same judgment of worth is being passed upon her.

Irina is painfully blunt. If she finds another distasteful, she’ll have no qualms in voicing it, for she views the illusions of friendship a cheap resort for the weak. And Irina is anything but weak. She views herself in the highest regard – a queen whose scars of battle have been etched so deep into her skin, the evidence has turned inward, as to protect herself from looking like damaged goods. She wields sarcasm and razor-sharp wit as her weapons of choice – her defense when her agendas seem threatened. She’ll use and abuse as she pleases, for she knows that without, the same will be done back to her.
She views her life as her own personal game of thrones.

History: Irina was born to a pair of immigrants – a couple who sought a life away from the control of a corrupt government and escaped to a country of less taxing restraints. However, her birth was ill-timed, for after her parents finally conceived a child after well over ten years of trying, Irina’s father lost his job. Already suffering from bankruptcy and debt, Irina’s parents lost their home, their livelihood, and were rewarded with another liability for their trouble.

Therefore, Irina grew up hungry. As a child, she learned to pick the best scraps from the trash, find the most abandoned buildings to squat, and make herself scarce when her mother was renting herself out for pocket change, or her father was killing and thieving for a nice watch. But it was never enough for Irina’s family, so when she turned seven years old, her parents decided to rob a bank.

Being a child who could only hope and dream at the prospect of wealth, Irina did what any girl of her age would do – she wished her parents luck. She hadn’t intended to meet the Creator, hadn’t even realized he wasn’t merely just another bum, but he heard her wish for luck, and granted it.

And so Irina’s parents robbed a bank. It was a clumsy attempt at securing money, and it was more likely than not that they would be caught, but they weren’t. Her parents stole hundreds, thousands, millions of dollars, and they were never discovered. Never questioned. Suddenly, the formerly homeless couple and their daughter were rich beyond their wildest dreams, and no one even bothered to bat an eye.

Irina’s family was frugal with their money at first – never spending enough to draw attention, still making it appear as though they had little. But with Irina’s outrageous odds at luck, her parents became less and less sparing, more and more reckless, until her family name was plastered across headlines and her parents had climbed to the top of the tower of wealth and prestige.

The power corrupted her family. It first drove straight into her parents’ hearts, turning them into monsters that spouted lies and pretty words until Irina didn’t know what was real and what was false. Irina strived to be better than her parents, to be more of a person than they would ever be, but even with the best luck in the world, it didn’t mean she could change her worth. To her peers, her teachers, even her friends, she was merely a dollar sign to be taken advantage of. So Irina hardened her heart, ripped it off her sleeve, and decided it was her against the world.

Irina didn’t understand why her luck was so vast, but she learned to use it to her advantage. As she stumbled into young adulthood, she quickly learned how to play the game of political intrigue. She wasn’t going to lie like her parents, but instead relied upon her own cruel judgment; she could mess around with whoever she wanted because her luck wouldn’t saddle her with unwanted aftermath; she could say and do however she pleased because her luck wouldn’t leave her with so much as a scratch.

But Irina’s odds at luck weren’t infallible, that much she had been wrong at. At seventeen, Irina’s luck came to fail – her parents had finally borne Irina a younger sister, and on a night when her mother was away, Irina had been coddling the younger girl, only to have her hand slip. With her luck, Irina didn’t expect to drop her baby sister, but her hundred-sided die of luck landed on the one side she didn’t expect – misfortune – and the little girl died. And so Irina was found guilty of murder, and she was locked away for life.

Irina thought it was a joke at first – surely her luck would save her – but after six months of pain and violence and starvation in prison, she realized her luck had run out. It was then that each day, for two years straight, she would stare at the ceiling and ask the Creator to die.

Attribute: Luck
Ability: Irina can see how likely someone is to die. The percentage will change based on what decisions/actions the person makes. She cannot see her own luck, making her view the ability as useless.
Other: She’s prone to referring to others by nicknames, usually borne of her own scathing judgment.

Wowzers DewDrop, nice doorstopper! I'm wholly impressed and fairly pleased with the form. The only issue I have is that I haven't fully decided if the characters are from Earth or an alternate world that's similar to but is not here. As such, I'm trying to avoid anything related to real-world objects/places/history (despite the fact that I love the inclusion /is a nerd). That being said, her history is intriguing, and she's clearly very well thought out.

Also, Eevee! <3 Excuse me whilst I cuddle your avatar :t-swoon:

Aaa, thank you so much! ;u; I'm so incredibly flattered, oh my goodness. :t-blush: As for the form, would you like me to change it now or after you decide? Also, specifically what details should I remove? Russia and the Soviet Union, of course, but would societal institutions such as the bank and prison be too real-worldy? Again, I understand you haven't decided the nitty-gritty details yet, so no worries there. :3 And just for the record, I don't think that's a nerdy thing - just that you have an eye for detail, which is a good thing for any writer/reader.

Hehe, thank you! I love this avatar and happen to use it just about everywhere. ^^;
