I was hoping to be able to start a Matrix RPG based after the death of Neo and the temporary peace between the machines and Zion.
In this, only characters who are still alive will be played out.
No Neo, trinity or any other Major characters who died.
People can choose to be a Zionist, a loyalist to the machines (Like an Agent), an Exiled program within the Matrix(Like Seraph), or you could be one of Merovingian's minions.
For this you would post the Bio of your created character and make it specific in order to give everyone an in depth look to your characters appearance and their personality.
The actual storyline is the fact that the machines agreed for temporary peace in the real world...but in the Matrix it is still the Machines territory. It would be a very good storyline to see how thin the line between the agreement with the machines is.
The story will begin aboard the rebuilt Neb. My character that I was planning on being is named Alkon. He is a Servant of Merovingian's who assists in guarding the entrance to the Frenchman's bondage club.
When you create your own character, here is the style sheet for the different types,
Freemind:
Name/Alias : State Characters Original name and Alias as he/she is called around Zion and in the Matrix. (Ex. Thomas Anderson/ Neo)
Gender: This one's easy...state whether you are male, or female....or both.
Age: Age of your character. This also counts for a way of keeping age groups together so that they interact with each other in a realistic fashion.
Appearance:Explain the appearance of your character in and out of the Matrix. Notice that it also is good to go into great detail.
What NOT to do Ex.= Alkon wears a long black coat and dark shades with boots.
Ex. of what to do.= Alkon wears his velvet black suit and Green tie beneath his long black cleric tyle coat. He usually wears smooth curved reflective Oakleys which are a pitch black color and give him a lifeless appearance. For footwear he wears SWAT style military boots which the black dress pants drop down over, covering the strapped area.
Personality: Explain the way they think..down to the last Brain Cell if possible..
Weapons/items carrying (In Zion and in Matrix): List any weapons your character has. Remember, you do not have unlimited ammo after you leave the construct.
History/ Background: Go into great detail on this. Explain storyline from childhood so it carves a path that explains why your character is as they are now.
Abilities: Remember here, don't God mod and make yourself all powerful. You can deal out damage but make sure you take your hits. Also, no bullet dodging like Neo unless having my permission via PM. I have a storyline idea and it can't be ruined by "Ones."
Interaction with others: A branch off of the Personality description. Describe how your character treats others when they first make contact.
Agent:
Title: Agent (Fill in Blank, simple)
Background and experiences as an Agent: I am finding it difficult to make this character app, for Agents don't truly have pasts so to speak. Basically tell of previous experiences that the Agent has dealt with.
Strengths: They are allowed Bullet dodges but can't when at point-blank. (God moding..grrr) You have increased strength and you are much stronger than new freeminds, but you are still limited by the Matrix, allowing Free Minds to catch up eventually.
ALL AGENTS ARE EQUAL. Just putting that out there.
Appearance: You can alter your Agent a little but don't stray from the black suit look too far.
Weapons: All Agents automatically are armed with a .50 Calibur Desert Eagle. Their clips never run out. (At least in the first movie they didn't but they did in the second) Basically the strength of having unlimited ammo is out-weighed by the fact of only having that weapon.
Exile Program (Like Seraph or Merovingian's Minions.)
Name/alias: Just like a freemind.
Side of alliance: Who are they with? Machines? Merovingian? Zion? Free lance? you decide.
Age: Basically state the time they have been within the Matrix.
History: Explain how they were programmed from childhood. Also include why they were exiled and why they chose to stay rather than face deletion; what compelled you basically.
