Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu

Subject: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Mon Aug 24, 2009 8:59 pm

The world is a dark place. The population has been declining since the last peak of around five billion back in 1752. Now only 3.5 billion people live on Terra. Rome, Egypt, and Norway have been at peace for nearly five years now, but a current is developing once more beneath the calm skies... The world has been segregated into deeply divided religious groups. The Holy Order of Ra, official religion of Egypt, has a strong base in North America and Australia. The Divine Warriors of Odin, patron religion of Norway, have laid claim to Russia and Africa. The Clerics of Zeus control South America, China, and parts of northern India. This land is now the realm of the Greco-Roman Empire. Numerous smaller religious followings have collected in the remaining free world, but the three major Pantheons control the greatest wealth and power of the world.

So, you got a character yet? Because I've got Kerry pretty fleshed out now.

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Mon Aug 24, 2009 10:16 pm

Not quite. ^^ I'm up to age 12 so far, and I'll have him worked out soon enough...

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Mon Aug 24, 2009 10:45 pm

Awesome *thumbs up* [insert appropriate macro here]

So my character's from North America, for sure. If that has any standing on the RP's setting.

We're in N.A. You said you wanted N.E. U.S.? I'm thinking... NY, NY?

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Mon Aug 24, 2009 11:06 pm

Sounds good to me. How's the city different compared to our world? more oblisks?

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Wed Aug 26, 2009 6:29 pm

Actually, I'm thinking we're pretty much the same. Fashion would be different, money is a little tighter, world is less populated especially in the cities. More people would live in small towns or own farms. I'm thinking our capitol would be in a different location. Somewhere more central. Likely there would be more Egyptian temples, and very few other religious locations or displays of any kind in our area. Those that publicly support other religions are shunned, outcast, and treated like lepers. Those that side with other Pantheons are most likely left to mob rule and burned for heracy. Polution isn't as bad thanks to lower population, but there's more damage from warfare near the coasts and occasionally inland. No nukes yet, but Napalm is popular with the Greeks, and the Norse like to deploy minefields along trade routes. We tend to use EMP and once even used a massive non-lethal gas cloud with a rancid odor that burned the eyes. We like to leave the land unscarred and chase away the people so we can move in later.

So the native americans loose even here? XD

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Wed Aug 26, 2009 11:17 pm

Sadly, that was their fate regardless of how the world played out, short of them being a Pantheon... If you want them to be, we can make it happen. They would control Central America. Not a very large territory, but...

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Wed Aug 26, 2009 11:30 pm

It doesn't matter, I just found it funny that no matter what, they seem to loose their land. We could have an Aztec or Mayan Central America, though.

Subject: Re: Pantheon - Kaki et Hiratsu Sat Aug 29, 2009 12:06 am

GENERAL INFO/APPEARANCE
Name: Stark, Caleb J.
He is indifferent to being called Caleb or C.J.
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Height and build: 6’2”
Posture: No noticeable slouch under normal stress.
Health: Very healthy, rarely ever ill.
Movement: Quick, but not darting. Generally wastes little effort in his motions.
Self Perception: He believes that everyone can and should be equal. He has difficulty admitting when he is better at something than someone else, but his natural talent makes this quite often. As such, he thinks less of himself, which creates a kind of feedback loop in which the better he gets the more he puts himself down and pushes himself harder.
Hair (Color, Texture, Style): Raven black, kept short enough that nothing needs to be done to it in the way of styling. Cleaned often, rarely moisturized. No dandruff.
Complexion: Tan, but not exceptionally so.
Eye Color: Blue with very thin, much lighter blue spokes.
Other Note Worthy Features: A handful of minor scars from scrapes, falls, et cetera. No broken bones. Keeps himself clean, but not obsessively so. Strong facial features. Slight monobrow problem, but the hair there is very light and rarely noticed. Pierced left ear while drunk, kept it for a while to see if it looked any good, but never wears anything in it anymore.
Wardrobe: Light browns, occasional blacks or whites. Cheap and limited wardrobe because he doesn’t care much for appearances. He believes that everyone should be more comfortable with who they are than with who they wear.

SPEECH
Voice: Nothing too low...
How they normally speak: Comfortable and at ease, except when uncomfortable.
Accent/Dialect?: None, but is very good at mimicking voices and accents, and naturally is able to understand the structure and sounds of other languages.
Language(s) and Fluency: English (Very fluid), Egyptian (Not very fluid), Choppy bits and pieces of many other languages, mostly just enough to point out that he doesn’t speak that language and ask where the bathroom is.
Eloquence: In English, great vocabulary. In other languages, not so much.

MENTAL/EMOTIONAL
Intelligence: Smart, but not in a traditional sense. He sees the world from a unique point of view, and puts things together in new ways. He learns interesting facts very quickly, but is entirely unable to remember anything he doesn’t find useful or interesting. Names and phone numbers elude him almost entirely and can take months to remember.
Good at Thinking on Feet?: Very, if the answer is unusual. Often misses simple solutions.
Logical or Intuitive?: Both, but in different ways. He can follow a logical path if it’s something he knows about, and can intuitively grasp things he’s never been exposed to.
Education?: Barely passed high school. School wasn’t interesting enough for him to fully grasp what he needed, and though he learned quickly it was often not the information he was intended to memorize.
Areas of Expertise?: Science, technology.
Introvert or Extrovert?: Introvert. Society vexes him. He has trouble understanding the motives of others unless he focuses on them. He almost always misses anything subtle, and sometimes misunderstands even the most blunt of insinuations. He often asks others what things mean, even common phrases or references. He doesn’t keep up with what is trendy or popular, so he misses a great deal of jokes and references to modern subjects. Large groups of people make him uncomfortable.
Temperament: Level headed, able to take a joke at his expense, but very irrationally protective of others. He has a strong sense of what is right, and sometimes loses his cool over people who intentional chose to harm others.
Reaction to New Things: Rarely overjoyed, and often resistant to change. New things are always welcome, but changes in lifestyle, location, or some personal objects of daily use are often upsetting.
Act or React?: When he knows the situation well enough to predict his opponent’s movement, he acts first. When he feels that information is lacking, he waits.
Fight or Flight?: Fight, unless the odds are distinctly unfavorable or he is protecting something else in addition to himself.
Sense of Humor: Laughs often, but fails to make jokes of his own. Finds humor in unusual subjects and sometimes laughs at things he thinks. He never explains this, because he is aware that nobody else will find it humorous.
Any Mental Disorders?: A mild form of autism, Aspergers, is suspected but never diagnosed. This is suggested to be the cause of his lack of social understanding, and his unusual methods of thinking.
Moments in Life That Defined Them: Very few moments in his life stand out, but he has pushed himself to excel at many endeavors. A few of them include martial arts classes, building his own computer, and being first in local track and field three years straight.
Fears: Does not like crowds, but is able to stand them if needed. Can’t stand loud noises. Certain sounds, such as the slow ripping of paper, cause in involuntary shudder and can even cause physical pain. Does not like heights, but is able to move past this fear if needed.
Hopes/Aspirations: None. He deliberately thinks very little about the future, finding the whole subject to be not only a waste of time but also very depressing.
Secrets: He never admits that he once killed a cow just to see what it felt like. It was one of the few times he crossed his own lines, and also one of the few times he was ever ill. He regrets that moment, but understands that it was a key factor in his decision that he should never bring harm to others.
