    This is going to be a post-by-post roleplay amongst 4-6 people about a journey from Riga to Market to trade Armaments, and Misc. Gear.

    Step 1: Make a character


    Gender:
    Age: (Divide by 4 to figure out how many attribute points you have)

    Strength: (Your phyiscal capabilities.-Moving things, hauling gear)
    Agility: (Your speed and reflexes.-Movement speed, reacting)
    Intelligence: (Your knowledge and mental capabilities.-Knowledge and thinking)
    Charisma: (People skills.-Persuasion and trade)
    Perception: (Your ability to sense things.-Scavenging and detecting)

    Short Phsyical Description:
    Short Backstory:

    Everyone in the party has been given 50MGR to buy gear for the trip. You may have 1 free item under 20MGR as a backstory-item. You will be given 1 magazine for every weapon you have, you may want to buy more ammunition.

    Makarov: 5 MGR
    Revolver: 6 MGR
    Bastard:20MGR
    Kalash:35 MGR
    Duplet:15 MGR
    Volt Driver:35 MGR
    Tihar: 30 MGR
    Automatic Shotgun:30 MGR
    (Scope costs 5MGR, Silencers are 5MGR)

    5.45mm 15 rounds(Kalash, Bastard):5MGR
    9mm 6 rounds(Makarov, Revolver):3MGR
    Buckshot shells 5 rounds:5MGR
    Ball Bearings 5 rounds: 5MGR

    Knife:2MGR
    Throwing Knife:3MGR
    Grenade:6MGR
    Sticky Grenade:9MGR


    (Did I forget something? Do you want something added? Post below.)

    Step 2: Post your application listing everything stated above, and any further comments you want to post.

    Step 3: When we get the 4-6 people to do the RP, and we'll start RPing using this thread.

    RP will look like this:
    My Post:

    *A burly man in a Leather Armour suit holding a Bastard gets up on a cart in the station.
    Vladimir: Boys, if you're on the caravan to market, get your gear ready and get in the cart!
    *Some civilians move about and a few men load some crates onto the cart.

    Your post:
    *A (your simple description) man gets a small bag and tosses it into the cart.
    (Your name): I'm (Name), and I suspect the payment will be good for the trip?

    My Post:
    *Vladimir chuckles a little, sitting down on the cart.
    Vladimir: Payment will be 10% of the profits made from selling the merchandise.

    Third Guy's Post:
    *(Same description thing) man tosses his bag on the cart
    Third Guy: 10% sounds fair for a beggar... But I guess we're all beggars down here.

    Let's write in italics for the roleplay, okay everyone?

    I was surrounded by three men. They were all different, and I hadn't remembered meeting them, so I extended my hand to each of them.

    "That's four, you guys want to wait for more or do you want to get going?" I was eager to get out and make some bullets, and if there were more men that would be less of a share.

    Male
    22 years old

    Strength _ 2 (not the strongest but enough to do most things)
    Agility _ 0 (I am not the fastest runner)
    Intelligence _ 2 (I'm one of the brightest young men in my home station)
    Charisma _ 0 (I'm reclusive but polite)
    Perception _ 1 (I pay attention to my surroundings but need more experience)

    I'm five feet and ten inches tall with a sturdy build and cold blue eyes that don't match my young face.

    I was a loner as a child and would always sneak out into the side tunnels where the adults couldn't fit to explore. I have only seen one mutant in my life and I was all alone when it happened. I was 14.

    Gear:
    Throwing knife (backstory)
    2 revolvers = 12 mgr
    Douplet = 15 mgr
    Gasmask = 10 mgr
    Filter = 3 mgr
    2 (6 revolver rounds) = 6 mgr
    2 knives = 4 mgr

    0 mgr left over


    Scene:

    A young man wearing a canvas poncho colored with rust and dirt approaches the group after listening from a few yards away. "You're not leaving without me," said the youth, trying to sound joking but it didn't come off too well. "My name is Stepan and I'm coming as well. Pleased to meet you," he extended his large hand out to the stranger. "Andrei was it?"

    *After clearing up a small cargo jam with the Forman I casually approached the railcar brushing off the dust from my uniform faded to a mer green blur. After a few steps I stopped and pulled out my old soviet wool coat from my rucksack and carefully hid my pistol in it as I got snug in it. The tunnels were awfully cold.

    *With that I finally reached the cart and waited behind a man wearing a poncho while he shook the hands of the others. After he took his seat I carefully maneuvered past the feet of the others nodding to each as a passed by until I reached my seat at the front. "Alex's my name. Good to meet you all" I stated aloud.

    After the dinner I had in Riga - Cooked porkchop and tea - I was all set for our travel to Market Station. I weared my old leather coat and pulled out my old Kalashnikov from my backpack. I checked my magazine for a jam, then pushed the magazine back. Then I took my backpack and I started walking to the squad, that I was going to travel with. I jumped over to the railroad and turn my gaze upon the two guys sitting. One of them said " Good to meet you all." I nodded and waited for the sign that we're going to move out.

    I'm curious, isn't the "game leader" AKA SpitFir3Tornado supposed to lead this?

    He hasn't been active for two days, if he isn't going to be regularly logging on I don't see why he started a RP thread. Oh, FYI, I'll be on vacation from the 7th to the 17th.

    A man extended his hand to me and I took it. He had a Duplet, like myself, but my Duplet had a story to tell...

    ...I extended my hand to Alex and said, "the name's Andrei", loudly enough for everyone to hear. We were all on the railroad, and the caravan looked ready to go. I said loudly, "So, let's get this thing started, eh?"

    After sitting and getting comfortable i shook the hand of a man calling himself Andrei with a firm grip. I nodded at his request to leave and yelled at the Forman to open the gate. He doodled with a clipboard of paper work for a few more seconds then pulled out a large key from his pocket. Inserting it into a large metal box screwed to the wall. Then with a large thud from within the walls the gate lurched forward with a small squeal. "here we go!" I told the group.

    When the gate opened fully a man at the rear of the cart started the engine and moved us forward. There was the familiar smell from the tunnels that blew threw our nostrils with the cold breeze. I felt a moment of fear from the unknown but was instantly comforted by a mans humor.

    Vladimir: beats walking...
    *chuckles

    Alex: I smile at the statement as indeed it was much better. "well... No use spending the whole trip silent. Let's get to know each other a bit. Smoke a little. Drink a little. Laugh a little. Cant do any harm... Whose first?".

    Come on guys! Even if the 'leader' is absent we should still continue this roleplay. I like how it's turning out.

    Heading out from the cramped mass of the station I could feel my comfort zone coming. I knew that once I experienced the tunnels I would never want to leave.
