| So, Paradigm creates an RP and it goes like so:
Time Era: Modern, maybe slightly futuristic so we can have technology related artistic licence. Setting: All over the world- this means I don't have to worry about people wishing there were less American rooted or British rooted RPs. We are Global and stirring up a fuss. Races: Everyone is human- I can't cope with supernatural powers as lovely as they are I'm in a humane practical mood. You're hit, you fall, you get bruises and cut your knee's and you run to your mother to make it all better.
Right, onto the slightly more important stuff
Plot line: Everyone wishes they could be the fly on the wall- what it would be like to go unnoticed and listen in to someone's darkest secrets. It's only natural. The urge overflows in some cases and it's these cases where the worse things happen. We're not just talking about a little home rummaging because you found out your wife was having an affair- we're going into the real time, big deal money laundering and murders here. Some people spy on eachother because they're paranoid. Some are paid to do it. And other are just plain evil and want to screw the world over.
Jordan Nightingale is one of those paid flies on the wall. Trained alongside the best she goes unnoticed and is the eyes and ears of wherever she's sent- even keeping tags on her employer, Sam Kroenen. He know's she trusts no-one though so it came as part of the contract terms. So long as he got his money, his wife was watched and his clubs in check- he couldn't care less. Atleast he knew that if anything were to happen- his little Nightingale would have the evidence to show him who, what, where and when so he could nail the little shit who thought to do him wrong.
_________
In a few weeks, there'll be a heist. A casino is the target, not one of Sam's but he got message from a little bird that there's a great deal of money at stake. The plan? Why get the money and elimnate the competition ofcourse. It's not as easy as it sounds- Jordan isn't the ony person who keeps a watchful eye and Sam most certainly isn't the only rich crime lord. So, Shanghai anyone? Which side are you on?
__________
Ok guys, I'll put up available Key Characters soon. I just want to see if anyone is interested first and then we'll get the ball rolling.
__________
Crime Lord/Mistress Characters- Spoiler:
Name: Sam Kroenen Gender: Male Age: 38 Birthplace: Berlin Occupation: Billionaire, owner of several night clubs worldwide
Appearance: He's a tall, rather pale german man with dark brown hair and stark blue eyes that are set deep in their sockets, creating a slighty eerie shadow around them. His jaw is well defined and he looks quite stiffly, but rather well built with his broad shoulders and straight stance when he stands
Short Bio: Sam has always been wealthy- never wanted for anything and yet always hungered for more. His parents are both well known and constantly in the media. Stella, his mother, naturally made her millions as a world class model. His father, Gunther, was the standard business tycoon that managed to marry someone good looking enough to possibley balance out his not so favourable face.
It was always a wonder what Stella saw in Sam's father. Never the less, their son has been well educated and uses his knowledge to it's fullest however, it is all for the wrong kind of reasons one would possibley say. But money is what makes this world go round at the moment and this is precisely what Sam is making. And plenty of it.
He hired Jordan Nightingale as a fail safe and only managed to gain her allegeance because he could garantee her a steady, and high income which supported her dangerous lifestyle. There were supplies to buy, insurance to pay off and luxuries to occasionally afford.
He married his wife in a fashion that followed his father... almost. While not inheriting the rather distinguished looks, he did marry because his wife was pretty. But he made sure his number one girl kept an eye on his slag of a wife. Ofcourse he knew she'd try and double cross him but not one of her stories hit the press.
- Spoiler:
Name: Liam Zhang Gender: Male Age: 27 Birthplace: Hong Kong Occupation: Billionaire, owns casinos in Las Vegas
Appearance: Medium height and quite slim with pitch black hair, often slicked back. Never seen with a smile unless he's plotting, causing pain or occasionally entertaining someone he requires. Always dressed in a suit- appearance is the most important thing on his agenda.
Short Bio: One of the lucky few to have fortunate parents. While not very rich, they gave him good schooling and were strict with him. This upbringing he uses to keep his affiliates in line. If anyone should choose to go against him, there are consequences and none of them are easy getaways.
He's never married, women are just there for his amusement and service- but he does keep a close eye on them all as women should not be trusted.
There is a network of people one has to work their way through in order to reach Liam Zhang- it's like a knock out round and very few get past the first 3 of 10. This is mainly said to have been because it's an unfair match if you go in alone.
How he managed to become such an entity is quite unknown. He seemed to rise to the top rather quickly... come to think about it... it was about the same time that Charles Tsiu died.
- Spoiler:
Name: Allegra Strauss Gender: Female Age: 26 Birthplace: Hollywood Occupation: Heiress
Appearance: Slender but not tall, her naturally blonde curls fall loose and compliment her tan. She lives up to the Hollywood image and wears outlandish attire when out on the night but sticks to something a little more comfortable, yet still stylish when recovering at home.
Short Bio: Her mother and father are famously split- a class relationship in the western world then. She has remained a complete daddy's girl and couldn't get enough of the gifts he would pour upon her as a replacement for love, seeming as she lived quite comfortably with her mother in what can only be described as a small mansion.
Just because she's living the lifestyle, doesn't mean she's stupid. Like anyone who chooses to live the life of highly organised crime- she has to have some sense about her and Allegra most certainly has the brain power to go along with her looks. Managing to keep her guards and team truely faithful isn't hard when you know to play them on their insentives. Men are toys that she isn't interested in. However, there is someone she is curious about- a little bird that flutters across the globe.

| Its open to anyone who wants to be in it really- I had no number in place Like I said, I'll put up set character sheets when I get a little more interest and people can mull them over. If they don't want to be one of the set characters they can create their own but atleast there's a template to go by and I'll fill in the other roles as NPC's I guess. | |
