[Freeform | Original] ARKNET

Hello ZEJ,​

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a hit on you taken out by the biggest group of assassins to ever exist? Have you ever wondered about the full backstory of Dark's characters? Have you ever wanted to be involved in a massive communal roleplay? Well, this is your chance to get the answers to all of those questions and more!​

~SPAUGHTYENA PROUDLY PRESENTS...~​

~ARKNET~​

So, let me start off by saying that this roleplay is a slightly modified version of one based on three whole years of tabletop RPing experiences. You will get to experience a large array of storylines with an even larger array of supporting characters (at last count there are at least 60 of them!), and of course, the origins of many a joke Dark may have endlessly brought up on Chatzy. In ARKNET, you will play any number of characters you want of any race you want, as long as they can be made to fit within the universe (not really that difficult; there's literally an entire universe to explore!). Just make sure you pass all powers by Spaughtyena first, as we don't want any gamebreakers like Ghost or Apocalypto to appear again!​

Now, let's get down to business. In the following paragraph, I will provide a basic abstract of the overarching plot we'll be following.​

Now that you've finished wading through that monster of an abstract (sorry, got a bit carried away!), down to what would be acceptable in the context of the RP.​

Almost anything! As I said earlier, just run it by D41 in a PM first. This is a collaboratively-made RP, after all, and we want to include as many people as possible. Though, I will yet again list out all of the races playable in the sequel to this RP, ARKNET Reborn, so you have an idea of some of the most commonly played races and their many, many quirks.​

Age limits: Since obviously a toddler won't be able to truly tell good from evil, here are some limits:

Humans can be in the range of ten to eighty years old.

Lycans can be anywhere from 18-180.

Felidi, being feline, are slightly longer-lived than Lycans, and can be in the range of 24-195.

Fallen Angels are unable to die of old age, so really anything goes here. Just make sure to use a "mature" dead body.

Promethei, being robots, are much the same as Fallen Angels.

Ithzon and Thenast share the same average limits as the Lycans.



Races:

Lycans are a race of canid humanoids. They're great fighters and usually know their way around firearms the best. They can also live to be 200 years old.

The Felidi are feline humanoids, and are as such much more flexible and suited to stealth than their canine counterparts. They are also slightly longer-lived, with an average lifespan of 225 years.

Fallen Angels are the spirits of the deceased in a reanimated corpse and as such are unable to die of old age. Given their power as spirits, they tend to have an affinity for magic.

The Ithzon are a humanoid bat race, and as such are well-suited to reconnaissance and scouting. They live around the same length of time as Lycans.

Thenast, being weasels, are generally smooth-talkers, hence the stereotype "Able to weasel their way out of anything." Much like Lycans, they can expect to live 200 years.

The Promethei are human brains inside a robotic body, and while they can technically live forever, if their brains get knocked from their holding compartments, they'll die fairly quickly. They tend to run on batteries.

Do I really need to explain Humans?​

And that would be it, folks! If you have any further questions, please, don't hesitate to PM either myself or Spaughtyena!

I'm obviously in -- I have two characters up already!
