A large shard of metal was sticking out of his thigh, he tried to move from under the crashed helicopter, but only dug the shrapnel in deeper. Slowly, his vision adjusted.

applejaxc 2500 Posted August 27, 2013 I've written my character's background too many times. Let's see... I'll just do highlights: Ex "Orley" (of the Ukrainian Special Police), 4 years of military service, contracted to Chenaran police work, got stuck in Chernarus when the CDF-NATO-whatever other group conflict broke out. After the US/BAF pulled out, he was getting ready to leave when the virus broke out. He's trying to restore police/military/governmental order. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted August 27, 2013 Never actually RPed but heres my background anyway.Name: Michael 'Big Mike' Williams Age: 27 Nationality: USA Sex: Male. Race: Part Hawaiian POB: Honolulu Hawaii Eucation: College 2 years Architectural engineering, Bartending courses, Forklift Certification, Commercial Driver Instruction. Railroad Brakeman certification. Ikaika Industries: Small Arms certification, Combat Driving certification. Job: Driver (Medium Risk) Bio: Mike was born on Oahu to a small family on whats considered the 'bad' side of the island. He volunteered at a historic railway while going to college for architecture, failing to secure employment he started taking bartending classes and other minor courses to find a job. One day while acting as a docent for a restored Private Car he was approached by a wealthy gentleman on the train who asked his history and eventually asked if he wanted a job. Mike was hired by the Military Contractor known as Ikaika Industries as a driver and was given small arms and combat driving training while making cargo runs between the military bases of the island. He was promoted to Driver (Medium Risk) and was put aboard an Ikaika Industries ship (IIS Ewa Maru) headed for the middle east. His Story: Mike was onboard the IIS Ewa Maru headed for Takistan via the black sea to run cargo for the company. The ship entered the Mediterranean, picked up one of Ikaika Industries' 'Black Units' for added security. As the ship entered the black sea problems began to occur, the ship's engineer took Ill, followed by several other of the crew. Then the radio went out after a strange broadcast, half of the crew were confined to quarters. When the main engine seized up and died all hell broke loose, the infected crew had broken out of their quarters and were attacking the healthy crew. Eventually Mike and one member of the Black Unit were the only crew members left alive, with the Black Unit member quickly falling ill to the virus. Mike shot his last friend in the head upon request, and gave him a proper sea burial. Mike was adrift for days before catching sight of land again, and decided to try and use a lifeboat to get to shore. Taking a pair of the Black Unit's custom rifles with him he made an attempt for the shoreline of Chenarus, when the lifeboat capsized he lost all the gear and supplies he had with him and swam the final 2 miles to shore in rough surf. He made his way to what looked like a town, hoping that whatever happened onboard the Ewa Maru was not happening elsewhere. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jvalor 59 Posted August 28, 2013 I can get in to character on some runs, but I don't have a backstory for my character? I guess it doesn't make sense, but eh well. I usually just treat it as if it was me in that situation, but with the janky ass, unrealistic player encounters, it's usually impossible to get into character.

Spunkey Doodle 25 Posted August 30, 2013 Character Name: Wayne Peprovdske Age: 23 Nationality: Cherno Russian Race: Caucasian Occupation: Bartender (One of Cherno's many pubs) Education: None Bio: Abandoned by parents at a young age and raised by a bum named Tom, he learned to live off the land by hunting and foraging as a child. When he turned 21 he took out a loan and rented a pub in Chernogorsk to support his aging adopted father. Wayne raised enough money for his father and him to rent a home b y the time he was 22. Only 8 months after he had afforded a home his adopted father was kidnapped by a mad scientist looking to test out a new cough syrup that turns him into one of the first zeds. Wayne soon learned of this packed up is few belongings and went out into the wild to find his lost father, not knowing that he had been turned into a zombie. Wayne searched for 2 weeks all around Chernarus with no progress. He gave up and set out to returne to his loft in Chernogorsk only to find the city was filled with the undead. He then vowed to survive and find his father! That is when a survivor seemingly appeared out of nowhere and said"Hey you what are you doing out in the middle of the plaza?""Me?" replied Wayne"Yes you, you look confused by all this, you haven't seen the news?" said the survivor"Nope" replied wayne"You better be careful these things ar--" the survivor was cut off by the sound of bones cracking and bullets flying.A man with a ski mask on stepped out from behind the international hotel and started firing on Wayne who then hid behind a near by car. Wayne was able to reach the friendly survivors body and grab his Hatchet. He waited for the gun fire to cease knowing the bastard had to reload. And as he did he ran to the comfort of an alley. And waited... After five minutes of sitting in the alley he heard footsteps, he turned around and swung his hatchet at the masked man behind him, bullets flew but miraculously missed at the point blank range, Wayne knew he had committed murder when the man dropped to the ground. He then bent down grabbed the man's assault rifle, which he figured to be an AK variant and his ski mask. Wayne then walked off into the apocalypse with the knowledge that any man he encountered would be out to get him... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inception. 9443 Posted August 30, 2013 My character tends to fancy explosives, however he can be silent if necessary. Will often give his life to save others, and that is often done in an explosive manner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
