Havok's Edge RP

The world is in the most groovy anarchy you have ever seen. Laws are pretty much out the roof, as most of humanity has left to go explore the rest of the galaxy in their Rad-ships. Also to flee from the monsters that have sprung up across the earth. Neon and Day-Glo are in the air as the last couple stragglers stay on Earth to party until the sun dies. It's the disco apocalypse and humanity is going out with a bang. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't know if my descriptions up there made any sense, but basically, imagine a post-apocalyptic world mixed with a cyberpunk disco. Like if the eighties stayed rad at the end of the world. Make sense? Now that I've established the setting, let me establish the plot.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two biggest factions (Laser Dragon and Chroma) are at war with the monster populating the earth in a constant battle. However, a small team of far-out people has been sent to Antartica to find what appears to be some kind of secret weapon. On the way, they will have most excellent escapades and face outrageous enemies. This team also has a name: Havok's Edge.

I don't even know if anybody will join, but I am still going to have a most groovy time.

I might be a little more modern though.

Okay, I mentioned before that I might make a guy charrie either to replace or supplement Elli because poor Greg is hopelessly outnumbered. BTW, "a person" actually wasn't me. I don't mind that you thought it was (they stated your case very politely), but just to let you know. 

So, just let me know if you would rather me use both charries or one or the other.   

 

Name: Zaal Chavchavadze 

Gender: male 

Age: 22

Appearance: Zaal is relatively tall. He has thick, dark brown hair that grows very fast, so he's always in need of a haircut. But then again, it's the 80s (ish), so who cares. He has deep brown eyes and a sharp chin. He wears a dark grey letterman's jacket (from when school was still a thing) with blue stripes on the sleeves just about everywhere, as well as black fingerless gloves which were dipped in silvery-blue dye at the tips. 

Personality: He's the type of person that when he's at a party or gathering, no one will think he's listening to the conversation and forget about him until he adds something hilarious or clever that sends his whole group laughing. Zaal is sort of half-in, half-out of the party culture. He enjoys a good time with friends, adventure and disco (because why not), but he's a little more reserved (or at least, you'd think that until you met him). He has a strong sense of loyalty to his close friends and would take a betrayal of any sort very seriously. He is generally good-natured, although most people take his natural expression to be either solemn or concerned. He also has the sort of expressionless humor that makes you wonder if he's really joking or not. Even if you overlook Zaal in a crowd, he's a good friend and the first to help you up if you trip or (in a very Rose bud-esque fashion) fall down the stairs. Also, if you come to his house at any hour or for any reason, he will probably open the door and fix you whatever's in the fridge. 

Backstory: Zaal lived with his family until recently. His parents do not approve of how the world is fallen, but they old-fashionedly and stubbornly refuse to leave it for space exploration. Zaal wasn't really concerned about the monsters until he was approached with the mission. And then the slightly adventurous side of him flared up. 

Equipment: A tiny, very thin blade that can be popped out of his gloves from between his thumb and pointer finger if he works his thumb in a certain pattern. It can't really be used for slicing and dicing, but can easily slide between a lock and doorway, and other purposes besides.  A little silver container of glow-in the dark putty that is stronger than superglue and can stick to anything. Lastly, buried in his garage somewhere is an old, partially-working sort of hoverboard that Zaal and his buddies made in highschool out of a broken electric guitar, parts from a Rad-ship dump, and other junk. It is radically dubbed "The Flying Guitar." 

Favorite Word of Bodacious Lingo: ...I'll get back to you on that one. 

Favorite Color: Grey. And also very calm blue. 

Other: Zaal's family is Georgian. He's also open to shipping? I guess? 

Reasons for being selected:  Ummm... *quickly brainstorms a ridiculous way to justify useless character* He can imitate a variety of bird calls, is stealthy (ish) and also has a little experience with those in charge of the mission. Is that enough?

I didn’t actually think you were. I just made a dumb mistake when I was typing.

Would you like to ship Greg and Chaotica? I think they could have an interesting dynamic.

Sorry, wrong name, I meant Zaal. I was in hurry this morning and realized my mistake right as I hit submit.

That sounds good. We'll see how the story goes, but sure!

Or maybe, since there's a big age difference, they can have sort of a funny friendship?

Sure, that actually might work better.

He's already shipped with Rook, but I can kinda see where you're coming from.

WELL WELL WELL, LOOK WHO'S LATE! IT'S ME! No surprises there.

Mad Greg~

I pop my knuckles and down a can of Coke as the chopper lowers itself to the floor of the Dead Zone. "None of our rides can work out in that dustbed," yelled the pilot over the sound of the settling vehicle, "Otherwise this most epic journey would be very pointless." He says this like it's my first time being dropped into the dead zone. The luminous foliage gives a groovy kind of light, lighting up the barren floor like a disco. The chopper settles, and I exit. I clear back a bit and give a peace sign. The copter flies off. The other members of my squad should arrive soon. I fiddle with the trigger of the Hurricane, itching to give it a shot. I've never been one for restraint, so I fire a couple shots at the plants. They explode into little glowing chunks with an extremely satisfying "ZAP!". As I continue my target practice, the most noxious sound of helicopter blades comes closer. Must be one of my squadmates. I need to give an air of authority, so I holster Hurricane and stand at a sort of loose attention. THe second copter lands and out climbs several people, one of whom I recognise as Roadrunner, famous leader of the Lazer Dragon faction. Her white and gold hair pops out in several directions, and her narrow eyes and angular face provide excellent reason for her nickname.

"Mad Greg Laurens. I trust you are prepared for this mission?" I can't help but grin at the thought of the epic journey ahead.

"Well, I probably wouldn't be here if I wasn't, y'know? I am most prepared for this adventure."

"Are you ready to meet your new partners in saving the world?"

"Ready as I'll ever be."

Elli~

The helicopter sways jerkily towards the ground. I stare out the oval-shaped window, where all that's visible is the orangish, ethereal glow where the sky and blurry horizon fuse together.

"Wow, pretty gloomy out there, huh?" I comment, trying to let what I hope is a serious, battle-ready expression twist into my usual coquettish smile. 

None of my team mates answer. 

Fishing two fingers into my purple feather and sequin-adorned purse, I yank out a Starburst candy and pop it into my mouth. As the helicopter settles, I press a Bit O' Honey into the palm of my hand too. I'm sure going to need it for this outrageous escapade.

This is short, and not my best work, but hey, at least it's something. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I pop my lips together a few times, making sure my lipstick doesn’t smear. I look boss. First impressions color every interaction you have with a person. If I want to get anywhere in this group, I have to put my best foot forward. That means looking totally rad, no matter how long you’ve been on a helicopter. We’re nearing the drop zone, where I’m going to meet the leader of this little shindig. He sounds like a bodacious sort of dude. Very qualified. As if that matters. Several of my other teammates on on the helicopter with me. I didn’t engage very much. You can’t be too approachable at first. We land rather quickly and exit the craft. Roadrunner is out first. I can tell, despite her supposed confidence, she doesn’t being out in the open like this. She walks up to guy we’re meeting and exchanges a few words before gesturing us to move forward. I see my chance, and stride confidently towards him.

“This is Chaotica Jones. She’s tells me she’s the best in the business. Chaotica, meet Mad Greg” Roadrunner introduces me, and I shake his hand. He smiles a little, with a sort glint in his eye. He’s got a firm grip, and seems like the real deal.

“Like she said, I’m Chaotica. I’m here to help.” I grin back at him, then walk off to stand next to the rest of my teammates before he can say a word. And that, ladies and gents, is how you introduce yourself.
