[OOC] The Murderer's Guild ( )

Postby Syreaa on Fri Feb 05, 2010 9:12 pm

Welcome to the nightmare.

"The Murderer's Guild"

Setting:

1721, Vatican City, Rome.

Plot:


Ever had a dream so elaborate, so amazing, you wished it was real?
Leo D'Arcangelo did.

As a high class thief and "classically" trained assassin, Leo lived a life few dreamt of.
He killed, he lusted, he won, he became.
Years of practice, refinement, and money hardened him.
He soon grew bored and looked for something new.
This "something new" came to him in the form of a weary noblemen, who was in need of a personal assassin.
While deals such as this rarely surface, Leo's made headlines. The target, a wealthy merchant who happened to be under the queen's personal care, was poisoned with an untraceable liquid that was, of course, never traced. Nor was it ever linked to the nobleman or Leo.

Like all noblemen, Marvin, the one who hired Leo, had an overly sized mouth. He was soon blabbing about the wonderful skills of his own personal "garbage boy".
The other noblemen, being greedy and childish, wanted their own "Leo's".

Leo's solution? Form a guild. A group of highly skilled, vigilant assassins to do the noblemen's bidding.


Where YOU come in:


Now, Leo has already gathered four other assassins, but they've encountered some problems. Competing hitmen, assassins, and bounty hunters are always looking for ways to take them down.
They must find safe, clean, usable places to sleep every month or two because they must move, and they have to keep a low profile, their faces never remembered, their deeds always forgotten.

Every assassin within the guild had their own area of expertise, making them useful... Everywhere.
Leo is the only one who can "play" all the parts: actor, thief, killer, negotiator.
He's what most would label as... "The Master Mind, The Man-With-The-Plan." Around the group, he's just known as "The Leader"

Every assassin [you will have to post applications for them and such] will have their own pasts which can interfere... Long lost lover? Yeah, you can have one. Think ancient times.

The roleplay will follow them through their jobs, personal relationships, problems, failures, etc.

I will need:
At least four assassins, if not more.
A very wealthy, influential, scandalous nobleman or woman.
Someone to play the clients... This can be more than one or just one person. [You'll receive the name and problem of the client via P.M. and then you will just write it out. If no one does this, I will!]
Extras: Old friends who are not Assassins, BE CREATIVE[/b]


I'll be posting Leo and Isabella's [Isabella being Leo's long-time friend and recent partner.] later. :) If you have any questions, just ask!


[i]
Rules!:

1.No Godmodding!
2. You must be literate! If I can't understand your posts, either do a little better... Or leave.
3. Your characters must be approved, if you argue, I definently won't approve yours, if you'd like an explanation, I will give you one.
4. You must post once every two days, if you will be gone for an extended period of time, please let me know! 5. Romance is allowed, but keep it PG-13, if the clothes drop, so do the posts... To PM's, that is.
6. And, of course, you must follow all the RPG rules.

Please rate my post--I tend to workquite hard on them! Thank you! :)

I'd like a spot as an old comrade of an assassin, if you're still taking of course :D. I'd just like to know what you want on a character sheet for that kind of character because he's probably not going to be doing as much in relation to the actual "jobs".
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

That'd be fine, just fill in what you feel is necessary. Even if you aren't always like... In the action, you can be very much involved in their lives. Especially if you feel that their line of work is unGodly; i.e., you work for the church, or you're an avid Roman Catholic. But, hey, you do what you feel is right-o. :)

I was wondering if I could take an assassin role. I've played an assassin in several of my other rps and I was wondering if I could be one on this forum as well.


I was going to make this assassin's skill be a poison master....like he makes all sorts of poisons and they can be useful for assassinations and such. Like he would be skilled with killing a bit too, but he'd be really good at making poisons each with different effects depending on the mission.

If there are any assassin spots left and you would like a character like that I'd gladly start on his character sheet and bio.

Would you like me to put together mini-templates for some of the clients when you send me the information? Or should I just make the post, then be done with it? Just making sure I know exactly what you want.

@Rethyn: You can submit a character, I'm glad Psycho was here to tell you where to find it.
@Traveler: I don't mind if you make mini templates, that'd be fine, it just depends on how everything works out. The templates would be best on repeat clients, but they could be used for all of them.
@laundrymonster: Yes, it does mean you're accepted.

Alright, I'll just go along with whatever I'm given. If there are any repeat clients, I may create a template, especially if the client is connected to any of the assassins.
