Hello, and welcome to my new forum game extrrrrravaganza! Okay, maybe not that good, but I'm hoping for the same success that Evolution got. This game is alot simpler, and will thus require alot less work from me. Anyway, on to the game...

"Are you awake, acolyte...?" So says the echoing voice from everywhere and nowhere. The room is dark, but it's not a normal dark. It's deeper, you not only see it, you feel it seep through your skull into your mind. Questions arise, but the darkness takes them too. "What a lovely mind you have... May I take a peek...?" Memories flash against your eyelids, stirring up emotions you thought were long dead. The visions are more vivid then they were when you experienced them firsthand. "How very droll... so you do have nothing left... then you have no objections...?" The darkness lifts, at least to your eyes. You feel it still, in body and brain. "Welcome, acolyte... this is your home... you are mine, and I am yours..." The voice is more distinct now, but still childlike, lilting in tone. It seems to float, and linger in the air. "The world is a messy place... we are not well-liked... we must overcome... will you join me, acolyte...?" You don't feel as if you have a choice. The air seems to tighten around you, and you feel escape would be futile, then painful, then you feel you'd feel nothing at all...

Welcome to Unlikely Assassins! It's a loose group of oddities, bent on one goal: Survival. (You were expecting murder, weren't you?) Now, here's what you need to fill out.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Obviously.
Description/Background: VERY VERY IMPORTANT. The game is VERY freeform, and is based mostly in descriptions. This is a description of your character. There is no limit to how creative or odd you may become, just remember:
1. Overpowered = balancing by me. Not what you want.
2. You are UNLIKELY, and an ASSASSIN. Don't be a 21-year old philantropist. The best judge for if you are Unlikely enough: If people would shoot you or run from you on sight, you are on the right track.
3. No aliens, faries, etc. Keep it pseudo-science-y, failed experiment sort of things.
Powers: What you do. The more stuff you do, the less powerful each thing is.
Absorption: How you "eat" the souls of the departed. Mostly just flavor, though it is a necessity.
Weaknesses: Not necessary, but will earn you bonus points in some way.
Other: Random details you want me to know.

Now, this game has a certain level of secrecy to it. Send your sheet directly to me, via PM.

Additional rules shall be revealed as the game goes on, but here's the basics that the voice has revealed:
1. If you are known, you are a liability... I cut my losses...
2. You will obey me... Or I will release you...
3. The souls of humans are... delicious... you will enjoy them...
4. Accidents happen... the mission comes first...

And with that, GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(Yes, this is heavily influenced by Paranoia. That's never a bad thing.)

Would a semi-cyborg psychic be the kind of character you want? A 6'8" white guy covered with swastika tatoos? An albino knife thrower with metal teeth? I'm not sure what kind of characters are okay, aside from them not being things like minotaurs.

[Armok]

I answere the call, the lack of a chois does not truble me; I wouldnt have used it anyways. This was all dreams come true...
"Yes, my master, I will serve you, for the rewards you have given and those you will give value beyond calculation."

[Fualkner]

Would a semi-cyborg psychic be the kind of character you want?

Yes. This is odd enough.

A 6'8" white guy covered with swastika tatoos?

Getting there... but not unlikely enough.

An albino knife thrower with metal teeth?

No. The guy might unnerve you, but not enough to actively run from him.

[inaluct]

Okay, sent minez.

[Armok]

I have sent PM.

[webadict]

I, as well.

[Fualkner]

All three are APPROVED. We'll need a few more for the game, a size of 4-6 would be optimal.

[Strife26]

a game like this doesn't suit Strife I must say. Not the least being, overpoweredness, goodness, and non-scaryness. That doesn't leave him with any qualifications, does it?

[Fualkner]

Well, you don't have to be SCARY, per say... just really weird. Also, your second sentance makes no sense to me, could you rephrase it?

[Siquo]

Sent one in as well, hope it's... unlikely enough.

[deadlycairn]

Forgot to mention, I sent mine (Hope there are no issues, it was done in a rush)

[Sean Mirrsen]

Shoot me on sight or run from me on sight? Heh, my alter ego's battle interface would do that kind of thing I think. If I can manage a description, I'll apply...

[Fualkner]

Okay, game is FULL. However, backups are needed, as assassins die they will be replaced. You won't be out of the game long, I'm predicting a 1 death per mission rate... give or take, based on cooperation, of course.

Make your intro posts, as suddenly everyone comes into view in this blank concrete room you are in.

"Who the hell are you?... and what the hell am I doing here? Oh well, it doesn't matter, wait! If I recalibrate..."
Damien begins talking to himself, you catch a few words, but they mean nothing to you
After messing about with his armour for a few minutes, Damien exclaims joyfully. The goggles over his eyes are now pulsing a rather disturbing green colour.
"Now I should be able to collect some useful spirit energies!"
Damien sprints off, out of the room

OK, amended action. After changing his armour so it works with his soul absorbtion (just for flavour) Damien goes and looks for a suitable target (although I assume te Voices are in charge of that)
