Some basic info on the RP

Hi guys, so this RP is going to be a little different in RPs I've done in the past! The majority of this RP is going to revolve around character development and character interaction, the plot being something to set the beginning of the RP up and give us a way to move forward if the RP starts to die. This being said, players will have more control than in a normal RP, any player (as long as other players around their character are okay with it) will be able to control things like threats that may pop up at any time (like a wild animal, a crazy NPC, or even new discoveries that push the plot forward or change it slightly) and can suggest additions to the main plot. The only thing I ask is that everyone communicates and no one tries to completely take control. I feel like this is more of what people do in 1x1s, and I'd like to try it with a larger group of people, to me, character development and interaction is the most fun part of an RP, so I figured I'd make one where that can be the main focus.

I will still control the big things like time and big natural disasters, but I'd like everyone to get a say in everything.

That said, let's have fun!

Spots Available

Keep in mind that there are four groups of three to start with, but they don't necessarily have to stay together throughout the whole RP, and the groups can meet up over time. These groups will be together at the beginning of the RP though. Also, you guys can totally name the groups if you want.

Orca | Killer Whale

Nickname:

Carlie | Carl

23 years

October 22

Zodiac:

Libra

Gender:

Feminine

Pronouns:

She | Her | Hers | Herself

Group:

Group 3

ROMANTIC

Sexual Orientation:

Homosexual

Romantic Orientation:

Demiromantic

Other:

Ambiamorous
Leans more towards having only one partner, as she has a bit of an over-the-top jealous streak, and is rather protective, which is easier to have when protecting one singular partner

Status:

Single

Love Language:

Physical Contact : Just a small hug is a long way to go for Carlie. Slight taps on the head or hand on the shoulder shows her protectiveness and affection. Someone who does the same is a wonderful thing to Carlie. It’s not in any sexual ways at all, and more of a “if I’m not scared of giving you a hug, I love you” type way.

Gift Giving : She can leave little small gifts for the ones she currently cares for. Surprisingly, she enjoys baking, and will leave the daily experiment outside her love’s doorstep for them to find. Carlie has trouble receiving gifts, as she doesn’t like to be in “debt,” but she will give her soul up to her loved ones.

APPEARANCE

Hair Color:

Light brown with blond highlights and streaks

Eye Color:

Right Eye: Gray

Left Eye: Blue

Height:

5'6" (US Customary : Feet)

170.7 (Metric System : Centimeters)

General Appearance:

She stands with a bored and intimidating air, her expressions always alive in some way. Her tone of voice isn’t nearly as expressional as her facial expressions can be. She isn’t the type to smile easily, but she is a smug person, and is not below shoving her victories into others' faces. Carlie’s hair is a light blond color, with blond highlights and streaks throughout, and strands of her front hair more bright than the back. She usually wears it up in a bun or just lets it free, as her hair isn’t the longest, going to the length of her underarms

With eyes like hers, especially with their bright boredness, it’s rather interesting. Her right eye is a silver and gray color, the two colors pulsating in between themselves. Her left eye is a bright blue, like that of an ocean shining underneath a blanket of warm skies. A dark blue shimmers in the orb, more prominent under the sunlight. Her pupils are dark, and when the light shifts, her eyes follow suit, and do so dramatically. She adjusts easily from bright lights to pitch black.

Her skin tone is a golden tan, scars and scrapes covering her body in various places. She usually has bandages or fingerless gloves decorating her hands, making it easier for handing rougher things and not completely ruining her knuckles or wrist. Carlie almost always wears athletic shoes or combat boots, both meant for physical activity, though the boots are more durable and usually have some sort of metal in them, which is why they’re given the title “combat boots.” She has various types of pants and upper clothing, though prefers cargo pants due to their sustainability and many pockets, and crop sleeved shirts, as many athletic activities include sweat and heat, and it’s better to always be prepared.

Her build is athletic and muscular, honed over a good handful of years. She isn’t a very tall person by most standards, but she still dislikes her height. If she could be slightly short, it’d be easier to hide in smaller places and not be seen, but she isn’t a complainer. Her nails are always short in a makeshift way, as she bites them to calm her anxiety that brews under the surface.

PERSONALITY

MBTI:

ISTJ-A : Logistician : Assertive

Alignment:

Chaotic Neutral

Disposition:

Pessimistic

Outlook:

Logical

General Personality:

An overwhelmingly dull person who has no real cares for the world and its inhabitants unless she has personally met them and decided said person is slightly decent enough. She’s not the best at expressing her emotions or her current feelings, though she does feel, just not as intense. Her inability to feel pity for strangers or people she dislikes in any way is rather interesting, but not inhuman. It makes sense to not feel the need to protect random people. Sometimes she can seem overexcited compared to her usual manner, but commonly she’ll feel ashamed or embarrassed of the unrestrained days she experiences, where she’ll be almost overreactive. She has expressive facial features, and doesn’t try to hide them. She can alter them in ways such as theatrical acting, but she can’t become blank and perfectly clear.

Carlie doesn't necessarily feel guilt when she inflicts pain on another, whether physical or mental, but she sometimes is haunted by victims in her own mind. She’s a calm and collected person typically, a cold-hearted soldier, manufactured to perfection. She learns things fast, and picks up on most rather quickly. She’s also trained to choose logical senses over her emotional choosings. It’s in her blood. Carlie could commend anyone she cares about if it’s the logical thing, the most beneficial thing, and the thing she’s been commanded to do. Carlie reads people easily. She finds it a fun hobby. It’s not like she’ll use it against someone unless for a mission or to save herself, and possibly one of her loved ones.

Reading others and their emotions is one of the few things she prides herself in. Observing the little things in life intrigues her. The little details of things that are perfectly and neatly constructed are her absolute favorite things, especially when she actually finds them. The main idea is important, yes, but she considers little descriptions and imagery as far more important.

Carlie fears pain and failure the most out of everything. Death is inevitable. Abandonment and loneliness are not as terrifying to her as being a failure does. Physical pain doesn’t injure her the way pain on the inside does. It harms her much more. Sure, someone she trusts leaving her on the side of the street like a broken doll could be painful, but she would probably consider betrayal as the worst. Betrayal doesn’t necessarily bring abandonment into the arrangement. If one were to backstab you, they might not consider the fact that you found out, yeah? They’ll stick themselves into your life until you physically remove them. Permanently, if necessary.

Though she might not be the most emotional person, she feels things a lot stronger because she’s used to staying as blank as a canvas. Though she can never keep her expression completely blank, she can’t always express much through her tone of voice. Sometimes she can get overly aggressive and snarky in her words, and it can either be the fact that she’s incredibly impatient and gets frustrated easily, or that she just has the air of one who can’t smile very easily.

Strengths:

• Rather talented in reading others, though that's one of her few desirable traits

• She's emotionless in the way that she isn't easily distracted when she has a direct objective, and isn't afraid to carry out orders

• Carlie is quick to wake, though she also experiences insomnia, especially when she is stressed

Weaknesses:

• A stone cold figure which causes others to not see her as human, or as a potential companion

• Has a major jealous streak and is a tad too mcuh when it comes to being protective

• She always chooses logical senses over emotional, and she loses many relationships that way

Name

Isabella Finley

*Nickname:

Isa, Bell, Bella, anything you can come up with

Age:

25

Gender:

Female

Sexuality:

Raging Bisexual

Ambiamorous

Group:

Group 3

Appearance:

Isabella is very beautiful, with dark brown, almost black hair that she's added blonde highlights to, it falls down just past her shoulders and is slightly wavy. When she's running or training she often has it up in a ponytail.

Isa's face is rounded with a small nose and rounded bright blue eyes. She has an hourglass-shaped body and often wears dark colors like black, gray, or dark purple, or blue. She is almost always seen in black cargo pants, a long-sleeved black shirt with a leather jacket over it, and short, black army boots. Yeah, definite boss girl vibes.

Bella isn't a big fan of jewelry, but she does wear a light silver chain around her neck with a golden rose charm on the end, it's often tucked into her shirt. She has a few tattoos, one on her right wrist is the word 'Endure' in cursive letters, one on her left ankle is a simple vine looping up around her thigh, and finally, she has one on her collar bone that's a bird flying out of a cage.

Her skin is light but not pale, and mostly smooth. She does have a scar on her back, stretching from her right shoulder blade to her hip... She claims it happened in a training accident. Isabella often looks serious, but when she does smile it makes her whole face light up, she has dimples on both cheeks, though she doesn't like them herself.

Personality:

Isabella is probably one of the most confident people you'll ever meet, she's got a strong sense of herself and expects people to listen when she speaks up. She's not afraid of a fight and has a tendency to get hot-headed when someone accuses her of something or makes fun of her or her friends. Isa's the type of person that walks into a room and everyone knows it... Immediately. She demands attention without saying anything.

Despite being overly confident and maybe a little loud, Isabella is a kind person at heart, she's never afraid to stick up for the smaller person and you won't ever lay a finger on her friends without her hunting you down. She's protective and sassy with those she cares about, not afraid to make a joke or play fight. Isa likes being in control, but if you earn her respect she's willing to listen to you.

Even in a fight, Isabella is all for fairness, if she's going to do her best, she expects you to do the same, even if your best isn't that great. She'll never judge anyone for being weak or making a mistake, but she will call you out if she thinks that you can do better than you are currently. Because of this, people may find Bella annoying or harsh when they first meet her and she calls them out, but once they get to know her it's hard not to respect her, even if you don't necessarily like her.

Isabella is strong both in her heart and physically, she is great at hand-to-hand combat and loves a challenge. She has experience with most weapons, though has chosen a knife as her preferred weapon. She's brave and can be reckless, especially when someone she cares about is in danger. She won't hesitate to put her own life in danger for the sake of others.

*Likes:

*Dislikes:

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

*Hates:

*Fears/Phobias:

Losing control. Of herself mainly, and the things around. She doesn't want to hurt the people around her, and she's fully aware that she can be temperamental.

Mental/Physical Disabilities:

Bipolar disorder

*Allergies:

None

*Both/Left/Right-Handed:

Left-Handed

Voice:

Isabella's voice is one similar to that of a military commanders, loud and straightforward, it demands attention and respect. She speaks in shortened, easily understandable phrases more often than not.

Handwriting:

Isa's handwriting is neat and dark, she tends to press down a little too hard on the paper when she writes, sometimes printing her letters on the surface underneath the paper even. She has curved letters and sometimes doesn't fully close her 'O's or lowercase 'A's. She's also the kind of person that draws mini 'o's above her 'I's. Her letters are big but legible.

Not even a week later, the world's gone to shit and now here he is. Least he hadn't turned in all his gear, yeah?
