Let's play a game. This will be Sims-esque/Fallout-esque forum game, with the forumgoers creating their own characters. However, it will not exactly be a roleplay, because the DM will have reins of the full story, and thus all of the characters. The forumgoers can still submit commands to push the story along in a new direction, however. This is a human-only session, to mitigate matters of interspecies complexity. Classpects will also be chosen by the DM. Player Creation Form: Name: (Who is this guy/gal called?) Chumhandle: (Likewise, what are they called on the great net?) Age and gender: (Self-explanatory) Appearance: (Describe their appearances in short sentences.) Interests: (Also self-explanatory.) Modus: (What's their captchalogue modus? Every kid starts out with 10 cards.) Spawnpoint: (Where do they live?) Stats: (This is where you get to influence a kid's abilities. You have 21 stat points to spare, and each stat starts out with 1 point. You can only allocate up to 10 points per stat at first. Do keep in mind this is just a reference of their abilities- these won't actually be used... maybe. The default stat allocation [prior to allocating any points at all] does not take away any points from your pool of 21 points.) - Mangrit: 1 (How much strength do they have? This determines how much they carry, and how much damage they do with melee weapons.)
- Cognizance: 1 (How perceptive are they, and how strong are their five senses? This determines how efficient they are with ranged weapons, and how good they are at noticing out-of-place things.)
- Vitality: 1 (How much can they endure? This determines the amount of hurt they can take, resistances to several environmental hazards, and being able to do a difficult task repeatedly.)
- Pulchritude: 1 (How suave and charming are they? This determines their ability to influence others, woo the girls, and generally influences how well this character can interact with others.)
- Gumption: 1 (How knowledgeable are they? This determines how smart, resourceful and wise they are, and how quickly they can think.)
- Scamperability: 1 (How agile are they? This determines how well they can move, and how well they can coordinate physically.)
- Wakelessness: 1 (Is this character an insomniac, or do they get a lot of sleep? This determines the ability to fall asleep quickly and rest well.)
I'll accept 8 characters before I begin. No, this isn't a roleplay.

it starts at one, which doesn't take away points, correct?

WAIT. Huh.
Never paid attention to that.
Yeah, sorry about that, should have specified upon it better.
TO ALL: The default stat points DON'T take away your stat point pool. Please rearrange your points more accordingly. Sorry about that.

Name: Beth Byrdine
Chumhandle: radicalPredator Age and gender: 15, Female
Appearance: 5'5" tall, wears a purple plaid shirt, ripped jeans, and always
keeps her hair in a ponytail
Interests: BMX, skateboarding, making youtube videos, hunting Modus: Linked List Works like the array modus, except that accessing an item dumps every item captchalogued more recently than it from inventory (similar to how Rose's binary tree modus dropped everything whenever the root was accessed) Spawnpoint: A log cabin somewhere in Vermont Stats: Mangrit: 1 Cognizance: 1 Vitality: 1 Pulchritude: 10 Gumption: 1 Scamperability: 10 Wakelessness: 4
((I feel like there's been a distinct lack of female charcters so far. Also a distinct lack of min-maxing.))

Name: Elma Ramsay
Chumhandle: AirborneMermaid Age and gender: 14 female
Appearance: 4 foot 6 inches, so short for her age, shoulder-length hair, braces. Interests: Fantasy, swimming, Pokemon, flying Modus: Conditional modus. Similar to array modus in that you can acces your card in any order but only if certain conditions are met. These conditions are chosen at complete random for each item and change every time the same item is captchalogued, but are always within the user's capability to perform without significant difficulty. Spawnpoint: A town house in L.A Stats: (This is where you get to influence a kid's abilities. You have 21 stat points to spare, and each stat starts out with 1 point. You can only allocate up to 10 points per stat at first. Do keep in mind this is just a reference of their abilities- these won't actually be used... maybe.

Question: I already have my profile ready, but does the initial default stats add up to any stat allocation you have? Say, if you put 2 in mangrit, does it make 3?

Thank you, NIT75.
It's been about forever. Let us go. Name: Lisa Abelli
Chumhandle: maskedHole Age and gender: 16, Female
Appearance: 4'9", blonde (i.e in Homestuck terms white) hair kept in a single large braid. Yellow-green eyes, yellow-green text. (aaf442). Green and white striped shirt, long brown plaid skirt and black shiny shoes.
Interests: Drama/theater play, minor interest in astronomy, mathematics and volcanism; books of pretty much all genre, although specially science-fiction and horror; masks, visual novel vidya. Modus: Arthurian Modus Every item is forcefully set into a stone. The larger the item, the bigger the stone. Lisa must physically reach out and pull out a item from the stone in order to retrieve them - smaller items are of course better to retieve. The more dramatically done, the better. Perhaps, some of the items may only allow themselves to be picked out when the time is right, similar to the Chastity modus. But that's only Lisa's speculation, of course. Spawnpoint: In a two story house in Naples, Italy. Vesuvius should be visible from where she is. Stats:
Mangrit: 4 Cognizance: 4 Vitality: 3 Pulchritude: 6 Gumption: 5 Scamperability: 2 Wakelessness: 4 Initial stats were accounted for - therefore, in summing up the numbers, you should probably remove 1 from each stat. However, as a host, you probably already know this.

Name: Eric Mason
Chumhandle: overturnedOffensive (I can only imagine the fun that will be had with this when/if we start messing with pan-temporal memos) Age and gender: 16, male
Appearance: 5’7” tall, short black hair, wears a plain gray T-shirt and jeans when not wearing his replica Confederate or WWII German (with Balkenkreuz in place of swastika) military uniform
Interests: History (especially from the 19th century onward), alternate history, video games (especially shooters), Civil War/WWII reenactment, various genres of literature, losers of historical wars (from a purely military standpoint) Modus: Airdrop Modus Items can be withdrawn at will regardless of size, but they will be airdropped randomly within a radius of around 100 feet around Eric (or, if the surface beneath him is smaller than that, anywhere on said surface) from a point in the sky far enough above him to be out of sight and above whatever structure or overhang he might be standing within or underneath, but still near enough to be affected primarily by the gravitational pull of whatever celestial body has dominant gravitational effect on him. Spawnpoint: An apartment building in Seattle Stats:
• Mangrit: 3 • Cognizance: 8 • Vitality: 4 • Pulchritude: 2 • Gumption: 5 • Scamperability: 5 • Wakelessness: 1
