Assassination - back from death!(start/still open)
|
With the Assassination thread dead and long forgotten, I think I should try some revival magic on it. (plays thirty minutes of William Hung's Worst Hits) It's alive! It's awake! Enjoy! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay, let's start with an explaination of the world this takes place in. In the somewhat near future, let's say 20XX, assassination has been made legal and is now a rather large business. However, the fee to knock someone off must be over 5,000 dollars (per person working on the job), as the government thinks you have to REALLY want someone knocked off to be allowed to. Thus, the guilds were born. Tight-knit groups of assassins, often working together. They were expensive, but they were gaurinteed to get the job done. However, there are also freelancers. Cheaper, but only a select few could be considered relyable and it made for a very, very dangerous workweek, especially if the poor slob you're assigned to kill is well protected. UPDATE: Yes, you can be hired to kill other Assassins. Doing so is actually a very clever move for someone who knows he's been targeted. And yes, you can buy an exemption from hit lists. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now, rules. 1. Write in prose form. None of this: Tara: OMG I ARE STUHRONGER!*slaps you upside the head* THIS is fine: "You really think you can win?" said Tara with a smirk. "Fine. Let's end this little mexican standoff." And with that, she pulled the trigger. 2. No Godding. You can't dodge everything, and you can't always counterattack. 3. Everyone is allowed one assassin character and two 'prey' characters, of the ones the assassins are after. If a character of yours should die, you can make another to take its place. 4. Only put a character into the RP at a time that fits. No 'And suddenly, so and so jumped in!' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Character Sheets: Name: Nickname: Age: Gender: Height: Build: Weight: Hair Color: Eye Color: Occupation: Unless the character is an assassin, then don't bother. Obviously, their occupation is assassination. Freelance or Guild?: If in a guild, what guild? If a freelancer, are they considered dependable? How dependable? Personality: Talents: Those that come in handy for assassination or otherwise. Here's mine: Name: Rolf Halfhearted Nickname: Halfhearted Age: 24 Gender: Male Height: 5'11 Build: Slim Weight: 175 lbs. Hair Color: Black Eye Color: Green Occupation: Freelance or Guild?: Freelance; considered extremely dependable. Personality: Somewhat cheerful, can crack a joke, but all business on... well, business. Talents: Knife throwing, coercion, predicting peoples' movements.
There are two things I can't stand in this world - people who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

Alright, I'll give it a shot. Question: can hits be put on assassins? Seems feasible. The premise is shaky... "You can have people killed, but only if you reeeeeally want to. Perhaps there should be exceptions to the hit list? Government employees, etc? I'll go along for now, though. Name: Lumes Kierya Nickname: Moonlight Fang (when dealing with clients)/Cosmic Gear (when in the lab) Age: 18 Gender: Male Height: 6'2" Build: Never been good at this. Look at the picture. Weight: 182 lbs Hair Color: Eye Color: Green/Amber, depending on the light and what he's wearing Occupation: Assassin/Head of R&D Freelance or Guild?: Guild: The Last Shadows (He only joined the guild to finance and market his inventions, so he sells to anyone that can afford his products, no matter what their allegiance is.) Personality: Lighthearted, intelligent, and sometimes obsessive when he starts to work on a good idea. He jokes often, but he's serious about his work. Generally friendly, but prefers to work alone, simply because he's a perfectionist and is afraid that others won't live up to his standards. Talents: Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Programming, Hacking, Building Entry, Swordsmanship |

All right, I think we can start. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Arnold Amanda Stiyl Age: 21 Gender: Male Height: 5'6" Build: Obese Weight: 395 lbs. Hair Color: Red Eye Color: Brown Occupation: Politician/cross-dresser -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rolf looks over the piece of paper. "How much on his head?" he asks his client. "A few thousand," the man says. "I haven't memorized the exact figure. I'm a proxy, you see." He shifts uncomfortably. Rolf sighs. "No deal, then," he says. "Anyone else want somebody offed?" he asks the obese landlady, who is in on his illegal business. "None, Rolfie," she replies. "Don't call me Rolfie," Rolf says, then pauses for thought. "And you! Why aren't you gone!" he asks the quivering proxy. The man gets up (Rolf notices the man void his bladder) and takes off running. "Sheez..." Rolf says. "No weapon in his trousers, eh, Landlady?" "He was wearing slacks," the landlady corrects him. Rolf snorts. "Trousers, slacks, whatever," he says. "No use beating around the bush, eh? Gotta get started on this one polititian." He picks up his bingo book. "Arnold Amanda Stiyl, huh...?" he says. He picks up a knife and throws it. It pierces the landlady's chest. The landlady falls to the ground. "What... did you do that for...?" she... no, he says. He's no longer making any attempt to make his voice sound feminine. Rolf removes the knife. "It was a convincing getup, Arnold," Rolf says to Arnold Amanda Stiyl. "But one, Landlady calls me Rolfy-poo, not just Rolfie. And two, Landlady would have objected to the crude humor I used before." "Heh... you win... Rolf Halfhearted..." he says. "End this... poor loser..." "Gladly," Rolf says. He stabs him in the chest again, this time in the heart. "'End this poor loser'? This guy has one hell of an honor complex." Rolf notices the grammatical error and corrects, "Had an honor complex." He strikes off Arnie's name on his hit list. "Now to collect the bounty."

Office of The Last Shadows: Lab Beep-beep! "Alena, I'm not taking clients today." "He asked for you specifically." Lumes sighed. "Does he know me personally? Know what I look like?" There was muttering on the line, and then Alena was back. "No." "Then refer him to someone else and have them use my name. I'm busy. I told you that when I came in this morning." "Management won't like this at all." "Management's not stupid enough to kick me out." "They'll cut your funding." "The hell they will. Deserted Armor made me quite an offer." The sound of a socket wrench started up. There was what looked like a chrome rifle stock in his hands. The room around him was almost stark white, as was the furniture, which consisted of a table and a few chairs. Everything you could ever need to make something, within reason, was safely hidden just out of sight behind the wall panels. Alena's voice dropped. "He says he'll make you a very lucrative offer. I think you need to take this one." Lumes sighed again and put his project down. "Both of you meet me in the office. He has the file prepared?" "Yes, sir. All of his paperwork is in order." "Fine." He stood and moved over to the wall. He touched it, and the wall slid open, revealing an elevator. He rode upward in impatient silence and arrived at his destination soon. He walked down the hall and into his office, where Alena and a portly man in a business suit were waiting. Lumes nodded at both of them and flopped into his chair. The file was laid out on his desk. |
