[Note: game closed. This is dying]

There's a drone of voices coming steadily closer, some anxious, all are angry to some degree. Slowly, an orange glow started to rise in the distance. You see a house moving by. The glow is quantifies into a flame. More a conflagration than a fire, as three whole blocks are on fire. The drone of voices is behind you now. It's an angry mob. They're out for blood. You turn a corner l. You didn't do it though. You are placed in an abandoned car seat along with your brother. The mob passes and a man screams. Blood splashes through a hole in the windshield.
-------------------------
You wake with a fright. The dream ended on a scary note. It was lucid and terrifying. That dream always scared you since the first time it happened. The bed is ruffled and you are drenched in sweat. You open your eyes, blinded by the bright sunlight on your face.
------------------------------
Today is Sunday. For most, it's time for church; for you and your brother, it's a day to relax and unwind from the long week of training and work. Anyhow, its now time to get up and ready to tackle the day. The room is adorned with a small dresser on the north wall, across from the bed. Next to it. There was a door to the bathroom. You quickly dress in your favorite apparel; an old, beaten up military jacket, dark red shirt, faded blue jeans, worn out tennis shoes, and gray baseball cap. You head into the bathroom to relieve yourself and straighten up before heading out.

(Odd glyph on forehead, you cover it up using some skin-colored latex daily)
(also silver colored eyes, you wear brown eye contacts)

[Sosoku234]

(I'll wait one to two hours before I continue, to allow for someone else to comment. May end up being interesting)

[Sosoku234]

You stare into the mirror. Your reflection stares right back; eyes shining like mercury, the glyph on your forehead softly glowing blue. On the counter, aside from the usual grooming tools and supplies, is a thick latex cowl and a box of colored contacts. Brown. You look at you hand, a reminder sits on the top. You don't remember when or how you got burned bad enough to scar. You slide the cowl (which includes a wig built in to hide the greenish hair and elven ears) over your head. And pop the contacts in. You finish off with your regular aesthetic maintenance. Once you finish, you head out into your bedroom and, as you do so, the smell of breakfast wafts into your bedroom. It smells of your favorite, bacon and Mexican rice. You glance at the alarm clock. It's forty minutes before school, there'there's time to mess around a bit before you head off.
------------------
What do you do before you go?

[StrawBarrel]

Go eat breakfast.

[Sosoku234]

You decide it would be best to just get breakfast over with and get to school. You spruce up your room, ensure that you flushed the toilet, and grab your knife. It's a blue steel Balisong with a blade in zen colors. Your brother bought for you for your birthday early last year. You're well acquainted with the basics; the advanced, howerver, still elude you. As you walk out the door, you see the dull, blue shine of police armor and a duffle bag beneath it. There's a name tag on it that reads Mike Dynax. It contains all his equipment for his job, including his gun. It's through his job that you live in such a wonderfully large home and not a Shanty town shack. He gets paid the big bucks to do what he does. You think on it as you walk downstairs to pilfer a bowl of rice and a heap of bacon, hopefully before he notices you and gives you the usual before-school-talk.
The bottom of the stairs empties out into the living room, on the east wall is the the entrance into the foyer and the front door. On the other side of the room is the entrance to the dining room and kitchen. Mike stands in there washing the dishes. You go to sneak the rice bowl he has left plainly out for you. The bacon sits next to it on a plate with a paper towel on top of the plate to catch some of the grease. You move stealthily forward.
(OOC: forgot to do stats earlier here they are)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There are six applicable stats that we will use here. I use the dice system from D&D (d20; 20 being a total success and 1 being disastrous failure) for these types of games. I'll roll up the stat scores and if you want to, you can assign them. If not, I will.

Strength (determines how many tomatoes you can carry and how far you can throw them)

Endurance (determines how long you can hold those tomatoes and how many times you can be hit before you die)

Intelligence (It's how you know that this tomato is a fruit, but doesn't go in a fruit salad)

Wisdom (Determines if you can hit what you threw that tomato at, as well as seeing other people throwing a tomato at you)

Charisma (is your ability to sell someone a fruit salad with tomatoes in it)

Agility (your ability to dodge someone else's attacks when they realize that fruit salad shouldn't have tomatoes in it and how you can escape from hazardous scenarios)

The rolls are as follows (using 3d6):
10, 16, 11, 13, 9, 13

[FallacyofUrist]

Is your brother an elf too?

[Sosoku234]

Indeed he is. He's your brother after all.
Essentially identical. The only major difference is that you are about 16 in human years and he's about 27 in human years.

He doesn't need to go to nearly as much trouble though, as his hair and eyes are acceptable by human standards and he has no features to suggest he isn't human. He only requires to tuck the pointy bits of his ears behind the rest.

[StrawBarrel]

Continue sneaking towards breakfast.

Stats are as follows.
STR: 9 (-1)
CON: 13 (+1)
INT: 10 (+0)
WIS: 13 (+1)
CHA: 11 (+0)
DEX: 16 (+3)

[StrawBarrel]

Forgot about stats, it looks good to me.

[TheBiggerFish]

Ohai.

Initial thoughts:
That spread is kind of meh, except for DEX.  Oh well, it'll get better.

(Also, you want DEX not AGI and CON not END if you're lifting your mechanics from D&D, to just not confuse people.  (also CHA not CHR but that's more minor.))
(Oh, and racial bonuses...)

Considering that we're really not that strengthy by our very nature here, swap STR with CHA?

Also, it's SUNDAY, we don't HAVE school, right?

(I temporarily forgot that and substituted the D&D acronyms for the Fallout equivalent. I also plan on adding some custom racial traits)

(sure, there's no problem, as switching STR and CHA wouldn't have effected that last check.)

Also, it's SUNDAY, we don't HAVE school, right?[/b]

(You do indeed. It's not normal for those students from elsewhere. You go to school six days a week, you get Saturday off. You gotta learn the whole Earth stuff somehow.)
