Hi!
I got a question. I'm on the X-Files RPG and what we do is create a
character, then post a mission using our character and the other characters
(if we choose). Is this the way that this RPG is going to work? Or, is it
like the other RPG where there's a couple of central characters and everyone
takes turns writing?
Nei :)

Okay I have to switch characters because I am so sick of the ones I've been
using in the past. So, let me introduce you to my favorite character for the
moment. I'm in that hispanic mood... ;)
Name: Marcea Lazano
Age: 24
Background: Marcea works for the government. Namely, Area 51. She was
recruited barely out of high school by the Gua, who consequently are involved
in Area 51 business. She has to work there against her will, they've carried
through on their threats before. (killing hundreds of people in several
disasters because she refused to help them) She works there in the hopes
that someday she can use the information she is slowly gathering to defeat
them. She is married, however she and her husband are located in different
parts of the country, another way for the Gua to control her.
Okay there we go, I think she has some potential!
Adios,
Bethany
** I have seen life as it is. Pain, misery, hunger ... cruelty beyond belief.
I have heard the singing from taverns and the moans from bundles of filth on
the streets. I have been a soldier and seen my comrades fall in battle ... or
die more slowly under the lash in Africa. I have held them in my arms at the
final moment. These were men who saw life as it is, yet they died despairing.
No glory, no gallant last words ... only their eyes filled with confusion,
whimpering the question: "Why?" I do not think they asked why they were
dying, but why they had lived. When life itself seems lunatic, who knows
where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical is madness. To surrender
dreams -- this may be madness. To seek treasure where there is only trash.
Too much sanity may be madness. And maddest of all, to see life as it is and
not as it should be. -Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

hmm...will he ever realize that? maybe if he and cade totally disagree on
something, eddie will go *fine, do it without me* and leave, and won't let
cade convince him to go back with the *we're saving the WORLD*
routine...(okay, this would, in the show, probably just be a kick in the head
for cade...finally realizing how much HE needs EDDIE...)
maybe i will get into fanfic :> writing that is...

here's a riddle...what drives eddie? we know cade started out mainly trying
to get revenge, but as he saw what was happening, just plain ol' wanted to
beat the bad guys, and help the world save itself...(sorta at least)
is it the same for eddie? i dunno...he doesn't seem like that kind of
personality...maybe curiosity? or the fact that he's paranoid, but does do
something about it also applies to this...since now he really does have
something to be paranoid about, and what he can do is a bit different...cuz
all he really seems to do is gather information, and help cade...almost like
a funky computer game...
hmm...

I have to go with an original. I'm not very good with TV guys. You know, I
go OOC too much. Besides, it was hard enough picking an original
character!!!! I finally decided on Lori, she tend's to be my favorite. So,
here's her profile.
Name: Loren Davies
Description: Loren (Lori to her friends) was a criminal psychologist and
profiler for the FBI. She was dismissed after she saved her Assitant
Director from a hostage situation by shooting him in the leg. Now she's a
private investigator.
Loren is 26. She graduated from high school at 16. She was recruited
almost
immediately by the FBI, and was the best student at Quantico. She was one
of
the best undercover FBI agents in the business, and could fool her own
mother
into believing that she was a 78 year old rheumatic woman or man. She has
been the pin cushion for many bullets, and even now is nursing a bullet
wound
in the leg.
She's about 5'2" and rather small. She's the kind of woman men like to
protect, which works to her advantage at times. She's got dark blond, light
brown hair that falls about shoulder length, and deep blue eyes.
There we go!!!

~*~* yea :) (i love rpg's, 'cept i have a little problem...everywhere i go,
either i'm the only one who writes, or everyone, um, leaves...)
efc is gene roddenberry's earth: final conflict. love that show :) or at
least did...depends on whether it gets better or worse this season...very
awesome sci fi where aliens came to earth, so now there's world peace, but
the q is, are they really our friend?
cade is annoying...i mean look at him!!! he runs around, saving the world,
the only emotions he shows are grief, at times (mainly for 5 seconds when his
wife died), and an annoyance/pleading/accusing look he gives whenever people
don't live up to his standards...maybe i just need more in depth on his
character...
see, he's perfect. he creeps around, gets in anywhere, does anything,
expects everyone to help him and to share his passion for saving the
world..annoying. <g>
now, starting. um...how do we? shoudl we just stick em somewhere and play
it out, or look at character aspects and possible scenarios and follow them?
try to follow the series format? or go into our own little world (which gets
pretty weird <g>) or both?
1st person or 3rd, or whichever works better?
do we write for people to read (basically fanfic), or just for our own
amusement?

<< Hello,
Welcome to this RPG. First I'm going to set a few simple rules. So we can
have semi-ordered cahos instead of strait cahos. So any ways...
1)Please keep the content safe for everyone. Swearing is fine just don't use
it to the point where it becomes annoying.
2) No Flame wars. If you want to flame people I'm sure you can find another
list for that.
3) (the obvious one) Have Fun!
