Helljumper425 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 In all honesty, macking a character is easy when considering "What do I want my guy to be good at?" but when it comes to "How exactly do I get him there with his bio" it becomes a little trickier. You need to do a little math as far as the age of your character goes and how compatible it is with his training programs and the lengths thereof. I just think it takes time. Hell, it took me more than four years to master writing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-38 Boss Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Like I said, When in doubt, just make one and post it. Nice people like Bacon and Helljumper can tell you what's good and what's not, and you fix it from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murphy's remaing comrades fell and he was forced to detonate a frag at lethal range to kill the Zealot. Suffering a fatal blow to the chest, Murphy was evaced and sent to earth. There he recoverd and was awaiting re-assignmet aboard Cape town station when the Covenant appeard. He now bears the honour of the last Scorpion to go into combat.

BaconShelf Posted June 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Right now, (I presume you realised the setting) we have a command CE tee in a courtyard and a munitions depot, the roads are being cleared of covenant to safely begin bringing supplies to the command post which is constantly under siege. You can start there if you like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Composite Armour Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Isn't the munitions depot the command center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted June 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 No, they're different- one is a courtyard overlooked by several buildings with only one road entrance operational. The other is a few warehouses stockpiled originally being sent into orbit, clearly not happening now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His dad later died, from pancreatic cancer, when Donald was 14 and was forced to live on his own. Dwarka was known for not being able to farm, but instead a planet used to train marines for the Insurrectionists. Donald survived, barely, from eating all the squirrels he could catch. He became lanky and very ill at the age of 16, which is when the covenant invaded his planet and was easily taken over. All of a sudden, a covenant assault carrier came close by and started to glass.

Fishy Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Nice! Just out of question, what type of fighter? Sabre, Broadsword, Longsword or Shortsword? other than that, accepted! He originally used to pilot SkyHawks when they first came out (For about 2 years) after that he piloted both Shortswords and Longswords which varied on his operations. (Mostly Shortswords) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Bacon.. This is kind of an irrelevant subject on a relevant topic.. But.. I have an idea for this! You should make another thread, except, make it relevant to this thread! Have it so people have their (ODST, Marine, Pilot, Helljumper, etc.) go on a mission. Have them explain the mission and briefings! I also think you should add that you are allowed to do joint operations with other members! But you have to sign up on this thread first! What do you say to my idea? Don't like it, just shoot it down. If you like it, go ahead and use it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 If BaconShelf can do a good job with this and the next one.. Why not try a mission one? He can always add in that you can add multiple mission briefings and join operations. He can also come up with another thread after that that goes off in an even further direction for the RP!

Mr. Wolfy Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I have to ask~ what is the purpose of talking about making another thread in this one when we have a perfectly good rp going already that people could post in and not create a new thread~? I mean~ yall focusing so hard on talking about a new thread that yall ignoring the thread we already got... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 That sounds presto good, but as Boss said, it didnt work out. We pull revive his, now we have more people signed up. Actually, with what people post, I have a question; I think now, Regrets carrier should bug out, leaving the city essentially like ODST. Good plot point, thoughts?
