Mapping / City 14 [Ideas/Requests]
« on: March 17, 2013, 02:14:22 AM »
City 14 Backstory
    City 14, known as Dnepropetrovsk' before war (a real city) is located on the Dnepr River in Eastern Ukraine. Before war City 14 was an Industrial/Commercial based city, although in the last years business was growing at very fast rates, overthrowing the city's industrial size. After the war, under combine control the city was divided in 5 very large Districts, each containing many Percincts. The Eastern District, also known as District 3 (where the map is set) is the most active District, containing City 14 Embassy. During starting at mid-spring and until September the city has extremely hot and dry weather, but during winter it gets extremely cold, though it almost never snows. The City is ideal for housing citizens due to large projects, which were built while USSR was still united. The City had a very large criminal rate boom after the break up of USSR, lasting for around 10 years, the economy was poor too before the war as can be seen by the condition of many public buildings.

To Do List

Percinct 1
Percinct 1 is home to the trainstation, city center, and many small shops and cafes. The trainstation serves as a transport center, but also as CCA outpost. Many abandoned pre-war shops and cafes can be used in many ways, such as storage or working CWU buildings.

(Credit to Mr. Pettit for the Idea of the Percinct.)
Percinct 4 was a commercial district before the war, full of office buildings and warehouses. The percinct contains the main CWU building providing them with all the needs (offices and warehouses). There is only one way left into the Percinct, over the old draw brifge which goes over a large canal crossing the city.

IC Chat / Petya's Story
« on: December 23, 2012, 09:27:22 PM »

Time: 2:47 AM
Location: City 19, District 7-C

Cold gusts of wind blew Petya's long dark brown hair back as he walked through the deserted dark street. He held a small brown bag in his hand, his knees were shaking as he walked. He kept turning his head to look over his shoulder. His heart was beating faster then ever and his breathing was fast, deep, and shrill. A loud APC motor broke the silence, spooking Petya, but he realzed it was somewhere in the distance. He inhaled deeply as he turned the corner and set the bag down, as he did so something loudly clanged inside, he quickly and cautiously looked around. He then slowly un-zipped the bag, and took something out, it seemed to be an aluminum spray can. As he moved it out of the bag the metal ball inside clanged loudly with each movement the can made. Petya shook the can with all his strength, looking over his shoulder as he did so. It was heard few districts away due to such silence. He then proceeded to spray some paint into the air, it made quite "PSHHH!" sound, but to Petya it sounded like and explosion. His breathing got faster and faster, he could feel his heartbeat. He then started spraying something on the wall, even a slight movement of the can made the metal ball clang loudly. Before Petya could even finish the second letter of the word a loud vocoded voice shouted from across the street, "Anti-Citizen!". As Petya dropped the spray can, and pushed himself up off the ground a bright spotlight blinded him, he was running, but he couldn't see where. He could feel his knees giving up, a shot rang out from behind him and he dropped to the ground with a helpless yelp. He took his last look at the moon and lost his consciousness. Two dark figures approached his motionless body, the figure on the left chuckled. A pool of blood was getting bigger and slowly followed the crack on the street. A vocoded voice quietly said, "Clean this mess up, you got twenty minutes.". One of the figure then walked towards the  cans and the wall that was written on. The figure wiped the paint on the wall, it was dry and spelled "ON-". The figure exhaled deeply through it's vocoder and crouched down inspecting the bag. The other two figures dragged Petya's body towards the APC, the body was never seen again...

Location: City 19, Main Plaza

The Overwatch Voice echoed through the streets, "Attention, All City Nineteen Residents! Daily Rations Will Be Handed Out in The City Hall at Sixteen O'clock." Petya was reading City 19 Daily Newspaper, which was written by the City Administrator. He sniffed, trying to keep the disgust off of his face as he read the paper. He mumbled something in Russian and threw the paper on the ground with anger, the man next to him chuckled and smiled, but didn't look at Petya. The man had dark gray hair, a 5 o'clock shadow, and reading glasses. Before Petya even looked over at him he was struck with a stunbaton in the back of his head, he didn't know waht hit him. He fell to his knees, grabbing the back of his head in pain. "Ah! What the he-..", Petya couldn't finish his sentence, he was struck in the gut by a hard boot. He fell backwards on his buttocks and leaned against the wall, holding his gut and breathed very quickly. A CCA unit stood over him, "Pick. That. Up.", the unit said with anger in his voice. Petya looked up at the unit with a grumpy face, as Petya was about to try and get up, a gust of wind picked up, taking the paper with the wind. Petya smirked at the unit, the unit brutally smashed Petya in the face with a fist. Petya yelped falling to his side, he closed his eyes and groaned. The man who was sitting next to him, stood up and walked away without looking back. The unit chuckled few times and said, "Looks like I'll have to issue a beating now, huh?". Petya clenched his fists and shut his eyes even harder, then the unit raised his stunbaton and smashed Petya's ribs full force around 10 times. Petya weakly rolled over on his back and groaned in pain. The unit chuckled once more, walking away and saying something into the radio.

   Petya tried taking a deep breath, but he felt sharp pain in his left lung and coughed harshly. He used the side of the bench to get up, his hand shook uncontrollably as he did so. He placed his elbows on his knees and held his head in his hands. Each breath was painful, making Petya couch after each breath. He looked up and saw the same unit walking back towards him. Petya instinctively covered his head, and begged the unit, "Please! I didn't do anything!". The unit sighted and grabbed Petya's hand, pushing it away from his head. "Name and CID?" the unit asked with no emotion in his voice. Petya mumbled his full name and CID. the unit tapped on his datapad and put it back on his utility belt. The unit stared at Petya for a second then said, "Don't waste your time in line waiting for a Ration today..." Petya looked up at the unit with devastated eyes, he wanted to say something, but his body wouldn't let him, his throat felt like there was a hairball in it. The unit walked off silently after that. Petya got up, and stumbled back to his Apartment, he was very angry, but he didn't know how to react. He spent the rest of the day laying on the couch, hungry, cold, and mad.


Date: December 3rd, 2016
Time: 9:29 AM
Location: City 19, Apartment Block 7

Petya stood in the loving room, looking over the Plaza. Occasionally the wooden ceiling would creek when someone walked upstairs. The sun glared right through the window, making the dust particles visible. Outside four units were patrolling as usual, the man who Petya saw two days ago was sitting on the same bench. Petya looked at him, he then quickly proceeded to rush out of the apartment, through the hall, and down the stairs. Petya quickly walked through the arch into the Plaza. When he got there the man was gone, Petya looked around, surprised. Then a patrolling CCA Officer bumped into Petya, he stumbled off to the side. The unit shouted, "Watch where you're going, citizen!", the unit then forcefully pushed Petya towards the wall and walked away. Petya wanted to apologise, but the unit was already gone. Petya walked through the street, he turned around the corner into an alley. He heard shouting and shooting not far from him, he stopped and looked down the alley. Out of nowhere another citizen came out running towards Petya, he looked Petya in the eyes, clearly scared. He stopped near Petya panting and mumbled through his heavy breathing, "H-help!" Petya didn't know what to do at first, but he then motioned the man to follow him. They both went into another alley, they walked quickly and cautiously. Petya opened a black metal door, and let the man in first, he then followed him in, closing the door. The room was dark and smelled horribly, only some light was getting in through the cracks in the wooded up windows.

    The man was very sweaty and was panting against the wall, he had dirty blond hair his sleeves were rolled up, showing many wounds and bruises. Petya sat down on the cold floor, and crossed his arms on his knees. The man looked at Petya and mumbled, "Thank you... Thank you so much.", he took a deep breath and leaned against the wall closing his eyes. Petya tried smiling, but he couldn't, he couldn't even realise what he just did. If anyone found out, he would be executed immediately, he helped a man escape an arrest. The man looked at Petya and said, "I'm Louie, you?". Petya looked at Louie and replied, "Uh... P-Petya." Louie nodded, but he was still visibly very afraid. The silence in the room was broken by an APC alarm echoing outside. Louie asked, "How did you know of this place, man?" Petya quietly replied, "I come here... to get away from reality sometimes.", he sniffed few times, lowering his head. Louie looked around the dark room and said, 'We should probably stay here for a bit, then I need to get to the underground tunnels." Petya looked up at Louie with a confused face and said, "Are you crazy?! I'm not going to the tunnels!." Louie smirked, "We're in this together now, and we need to help each other. I know where we can stay, we will get help." Petya sighted and nodded, "Fuck... You owe me... big time."

    Few hours passed, Louie and Petya got to know each other a little more, Petya didn't like Louie that much already. "Alright, let's go.", Louie said with confidence in his voice. Petya stood up and asked, "How are we even getting inside the tunnels, they got surveillance all over the city.", Louie replied "I know a quick route from here." They both cautiously got out of the room, and Petya followed Louie. After thirty minutes of walking around the alley ways and restricted areas they finally reached a sewer entrance. They both climbed in, the smell was horrible and the floor was wet. They were both exhausted and decided to sleep in an old boiler room...


Date: December 4th, 2016
Time: 5:11 AM
Location: City 19, Somewhere Under Main Plaza.

     Both men woke up because of a very loud screeching noise somewhere outside of the boiler room. Petya rubbed his eyes, asking Louie, "What the hell is that?" Louie replied, "There is a rail system right above us.", as he stretched his back. Louie got up, offering his hand to Petya, "Let's head out, we should be home free soon.", he pulled Petya up onto his feet. They spent the next hour walking through waste filled and radioactive sewer tunnels. They passed a dead body, it looked like the woman was killed less then a day ago. Petya stared at the body as they passed by it, Louie just sighted and kept on walking. Once they reached a utility staircase Louie jogged up the stairs, but Petya stopped and asked, "Wait... we're going up to the surface?", Louie smorked and replied, "I never said we would stay in this shit hole, did I?" Petya shrugged and followed him.

    Once they hit the surface the sunrise blinded them, the streets were deserted, only noise that was heard was a mechanical buzz in the distance. Suddenly a scanner flews over one of the roofs, Louie forcefully pulled Petya behind the corner and motioned him to be quite. Petya nodded and kept close to the wall, they heard the scanner slowly pass by. Louie looked around the corner, he then motioned Petya to head out with him. They jogged across the old main street into a building. They entered a humid, dusty, and poorly lit apartment complex. Petya nervously asked, "Is this under the CCA control?". Louie shook his head as they walked up the creaky stairs, once they got up to the fifth floor Louie banged on the door four times. They both heard multiple locks being unlocked, and then the door oepend, a woman with dirt on her face was peaking out of it. Louie sighted and said to her, "How many times did I tell you to make sure it isn't Metrocops, huh?". She walked inside the room replying, "Whatever...", Louie looked at Petya and shook his head, "Come in.", he said. Petya walked into an apartment full of old crates, the windows were boarded up with few cracks letting the light in. Louie locked the door behind them and put his hand on Petya's shoulder leading him to the living room.

    Inside the living room the same woman that unlocked the door, was looking out of the crack in the boarded up window silently. On the couch two men played cards, one of them was shirtless, all of them had dirty hands and faces. Louie grabbed an open beer bottle from the coffee table as he walked into the room and loudly said, "This is... Petya! He saved my life, make him feel at home.", the two men nodded. being mostly focused on the card game. The woman looked over towards Petya and said, "I'm Clare.", she smiled. Petya nodded with a smile and looked around the room more. Louie sat on one of the chairs in the room, and took a sip of his beer, "You can sleep on the couch, he pointed at an old ripped up couch on which the two men sat. Before Petya could reply Clare quickly turned around and loudly whispered, "Quite! CPs!." Everyone in the room was motionless and quite. Outside how ever multiple vocoed voices spoke and somewhat synchronised foot steps passed by near the building.

Age: 26 (02-06-1990)

Fatal Flaw/Defect:
Right Index finger does not extend fully due to an injury in his past, bad hearing due to previous injuries.

CID:76951

Physical Description: John stands at Five Foot Eleven. He has dark brown eyes, black and messy hair, unshaven, very dirty City 15 Jumpsuit.

Physical State: Has average muscles from eating contraband food and doing a lot of physical work, right index finger injured.  His hearing is not the best due to a loud explosion injuring his ears.

Background: John was born in New York City, USA. Grew up in Bronx, having trouble in school and getting bad grades. Worked an cars as his part-time job, later it became his career. He was the only member of his family to survive Seven Hour War. Re-located to City 11, later to 13, and lastly to 15. Never wanted to join the resistance, just to get out of the City.
Spoiler for Back Story Within:
   John White was born on a hot summer day in New York City near Central Park in Lenox Hill Hospital. His father left his family when he was just 3 month old and never came back. Due to his mother being a drop out, they were forced to move to a bad neighborhood. He grew up in that neighborhood mostly messing around with his friend on the street. He later went to Murry Bergtraum High School, he got in some illegal trouble, but he didn't dream of being a criminal. He got a part-time job to keep himself away from anything illegal. He spent a lot of time working on cars, sometimes even skipping school for that. He looked forward to keeping that job after he graduates.
    As soon as he got out of school he went back on working on cars. He was a very good mechanic in his co-workers' eyes. He brought food and money for his mother, to pay back for what she did for him. He never thought or wanted to meet his own father, he spent all his time, even the weekends, in the car shop. He was able to afford a 1985 Mustang GT, though it was broken down and rusty, but of course John was able to turn it back into a beauty... in a way. He was later offered a job at another car shop with much better pay and in the downtown of New York. John accepted that job, he was making good amount of money, he had enough to afford an apartment. He bought an average apartment near Central Park, he would still visit his mother and help her with what she needed.
     On a warm and cloudy day John was driving to work in his Mustang, he turned the radio to the news channel, they were talking about some strange storms around the world, but John ignored it. The traffic was pretty heavy, it was Thursday morning. Suddenly something attracted John's attention, it was going towards him very quickly, it had a blue tint and like some kind of dust or particle storm. He could see cars getting out of control as they got hit, he slammed on his brakes, but it was too late the storm hit his car, sending him towards the sidewalks. He barely missed a man that was stunned by the storm, he hit the street light full speed on, his right index finger hit the wind shield first, then John's head hit the steering wheel. John was very disorientated, his vision slightly blurred, he felt shocking pain go through his index finger. He started to get back into reality, he heard a large amount of Police, Ambulance, and Fire sirens. He kicked the car door open stumbling out, he looked around to see a very scary scene, cars were spread all over the streets, people injured and some even dead. He thought it was over... but five minutes later the same exact storm went through the city, causing more panic and destruction.
     Later in the filled emergency room, John was watching the TV in the waiting area. They called the storms Portal Storms, why? Because in some places were they occurred strange creatures appeared. All of them attacked and even killed people. The next day almost all of the cities in the world declared Marshal Law. John would not get enough sleep to Portal Storms occurring at night. Few days passed, the city was devastated, a lot of parts of the city were destroyed. Frequent riots went through out all the cities in the world. Casualty and Creature count increased ever hour. John stayed with his mother most of the time, but today when he got back from the store, that was closed, he found his mother's building completely wiped out. John was very unstable due to his mother's death. He could not control his emotions, once he punched a wall damaging his index finger more, but he would not get treatment this time...
       As he tried and walk to the hospital something very... very strange and crazy happened. Portals released tons of creatures, but they were armored and had very destructive weapons. John was scared like never before, debris and human flesh was flying around him, explosions throwing him down to the floor. He ran into the subway tunnels, he saw tons more of people taking shelter there. Almost every second an explosion shook the station, dust falling from the ceiling. During the fourth hour of the now called "War" the lights in the station went out, everyone, including John started to Panic. John was lucky to get out of the station... or was he? When he got out the New York City looked like a war-zone. All that was in sight is concrete field, which was a big thriving city just five hours ago... John could not believe his own eyes. He hid under the Highway Overpass for the next two hours. After seven hours of fighting, most of Earth's forces were dead, the "Aliens" stopped attacking people. They started to collect groups of people and moving the to the harbor via. Drop Ships or by foot.
     John later found himself  in a European like city, but it was damaged and being rebuilt. Everyone was wearing blue Jumpsuits and it was very hard to tell people apart. John did not see any kids around the city, it seemed to be adults only. He later found a card in his pant pocket, he took a look at it, it stated, "CID Card. Name: John White. CID:76951. Precinct: 3" He was not sure what that was. As weeks passed strange devices appeared through out the City, people were starving, eating anything they found. One day the strange screens turned on, a man with white beard and a nice suit appeared on the screen. He told the people about all the events and what happened, some of it was a lie, most of it... John now knew he was living in City 11 in Eastern Europe.
    Small Civil-Protection teams started to appear around the city, people started to get daily rations. John realized he started to get very weak and his memory was starting to become very blank. He slowly realized with help of some other citizens that the food had as horrible effects as how it tasted.  John started to get normal food from some people, usually in restricted areas of the city. He saw people getting beaten and arrested for a slightest thing. He was beaten and arrested few times too. He lived with 2 other people in a 5 story apartment block. One day the Civil-Protection came knocking on their door, the threw everyone one on the ground, John was beat and taken to the Trainstation.
     He arrived in a similar city, but this one was City 13, he was issued and apartment in District 4, it was an 8 story building this time, but he was only leaving with one more person. They become friends, helping each other in almost any situation. Life was very dull in City 13, John knew he was getting weaker and weaker, so he decided only to eat pre-war food, although it was contraband. John didn't last long in City 13, he was re-located during summer of 2015 to City 15 this time. City 15 seemed much bigger then the other cities John has been to, but life was also much harder for John. He was moved to 18 story apartment Building in District 9-B. The city was under a much greater control by U.U. and surviving in it was very hard too. John made good friends with the people he lived with. He started hearing about people helping citizens get out of the city, John wanted that. He slowly worked his way to knowing who was doing that. It was a cold winter in Easter Europe so John didn't plan on leaving too soon. He told only one other person he knew that he was planning on that....

None.

Journal of John White

*The writing is in pen and pencil.*


   My name is John White and my Citizen ID is #76951. I live in City 15, District 9-B - Block 27-A (A-25). If you are reading this I either lost my Journal along the way or... I'm dead.


19-11-15, Wednesday. 7:05

   I was awoken up by a loud banging on a door... not ours' fortunately. Civil-Protection... searching one of the apartments for no reason, again.


19-11-15, Wednesday. 8:36

   The apartment was as cold as an iceberg, we had to wear U.U. issued Coats and Boots inside. I took a quick look outside, through the window, very small snow flakes were slowly griding through the air towards the ground, lightly hitting it. Roofs, roads, sidewalks, tree branches, and the APC outside of our building were covered in white and shinning snow, the reflecting light almost blinded you...


19-11-15, Wednesday. 9:09

   I turned the sink valve both ways, hoping water would come out, but it didn't, like always. I want to the kitchen to get some clean water that my good friend gifted me few days ago. As I stepped in, I saw Sylwia sitting at the table, her dirty blonde hair covering her forehead, her deep blue eyes focused outside at something not known to me, and she seemed not to notice me walk in. I slightly hesitated to speak, but my voice broke through, "Hey...", I said. She slowly turned her head to me, speaking with her soft Eastern European accent (Polish), "Hm? Oh, hello.", she replied and turned back to the window. She deeply exhaled and turned to me, opening her mouth again, "Still planning to get out of Town?", she told me in a sad tone. I grabbed the water bottle, unscrewing the cap as I spoke, "Ye-", I stopped myself and spoke again, "Well, not any time soon... not in this weather.", I lifted the bottle to my dry lips and drank the water like it was my first time in ten years.  She sighted even more deeply, speaking again, "Rations... are today...", she looked me in the eyes as she said that. I spoke and felt and angry tone in my voice, "We aren't eating that crap today...", I lowered my tone, "I'm getting us some real food tonight, okay?", I felt my self breathing fast. A quick smile ran across her face, for just a second, "Okay.", she told me. I put the bottle on the table next to her, "Drink that, stay inside, everything is going to be fine. I'll be back in few hours.", I told her as I walked out, looking over my shoulder at her. I knew I would have to hurry to make it on time... to a meeting...

General Discussion / "I'm Not Leaving"
« on: April 19, 2012, 09:21:12 PM »
   I will be very busy through out the next few month. I will not have time for any games or even to go on forums, I had a spare ten minutes to write this. I will be in-active for a long time, but I'm not leaving. I will come back around fall, hopefully. I will miss a lot of people, but it is a promise that I will come back. This community is great and people on it are, I had great times here (and will again). I hope the community stays strong and gets better through out the time I'm gone and I will get on forums when I have any free time, but most likely not steam, obviously I will not get an Garry's Mod for a long time too. See you all "Later".


  -Love All, Saints Sasha.


P.S.

   I know I will of course loose both of my units, so if they are still there when I get back, I will delete them myself and will get back into Combine Civil Authority, someday.

IC Chat / Zach's Journal
« on: March 27, 2012, 10:05:36 PM »
 *This is a small brown notebook, which can only be found if you look through Zach's backpack*


     *The text is written with a blue pen, it's a little clumsy*

  My name is Zach, I was relocated to City 45 this time, I found this book on the train. I got this pen form a man, I walked into a store and asked for one, he gave it to me for free, I guess there are still some nice people out there. I then wondered off walking around the city, I never reported to get my apartment, what's the point? I wondered off to District Six? I think, well it's an uncontrolled district, a lot of illegal things out there. I found this place... Safe Heaven I think it was called. I walked in and there were a lot of people in there, I realized they were refugees or rebels. They gave me free water... and free food. I drank it was drinking my water and a random woman came up and threw the bottle in my hand... Well I forgave her. I always wanted to leave the city, go outside of it... but how? I made up my mind and walked inside the Wearhouse again, I asked a man at the counter how to get out of the city, he told me to take the sewers. I asked him how long it will take, he told me 3 hours if I don't stop. I asked for some supplies, he gave me a backpack and some water and food. I then started walking where he told me to go, and the same woman was laying on the floor next to the ladder. She then started asking  for help, her leg was hurting, she fell from the ladder. I decided to help her, I helped her get to the wearhouse and the people there helped her. I decided to take a break there too. I man with a Kevlar vest on asked me whats wrong, I told him the story and then he left. another man came up to me asking if I wanted to buy a book, I thought I don't need tokens anymore... so I got it. It was nice too about barnicles, which most likely are in the sewers. I headed off to the sewers, but when I got there I realized how dark it was... I needed to prepare more, not just a flashlight, much more. I'm going to sleep in this container tonight, maybe see what I can do tomorrow...   *The Page Ends*

The food is much better here, and I get payed. It's not as bad as I thought it would be. I already was told that I'm too tall. As of now, I haven't met any other African unit. I don't really care about that though, Nexus seems nice and I feel comfortable inside. I will go see if High Command unit can train me. Logging off. ||::>

Michle Fonstone 's Civil Authority Application

OOC Name: Saints Sasha

IC Character Name: Michle Fonstone

1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so.
  When Combine Civil Authority was first started, he didn't reallt care of them. He didn't even know about them until a week after Combine Civil Authority was made. He had a slight hate in him for people who joined Combine Civil Authority. He saw them beat people for a slightest or no reason at all. He would always stay away from any unit, he was very afraid of them.
    As month passed he started to get more use to Combine Civil Aithority. He also started to see a lot of people resist, people killed... His mind was going mad, he would get nightmares of men in gasmasks killin him. He would almost never go outside, just to get a ration. He would never make eye contact. He did start to notices something about the units, they were fed very well, they had strength in them.
     He started having thoughts of applying for Combine Civil Authority. He would always try to not think about that. He started to hate him-self, but the hunger and the fear... it had control over him. He looked at him self, weak... skinny, and unhealthy. He just couldn't handle life as a citizen anymore. He knew he just had to join Civil Authority, for his own good. He always told anyone who asked that it was to keep socistability, but everyone knows why they joined... Hunger, fear... Instinct.
   

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
He is very Loyal, Trsutworthy, he takes risks, thoughtful, thinks before he does anything, he never hesitates, and he is somewhat smart.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.
For me it will not be a new experience, but I want to try and devolope my character more realisticly. I want to mess up few times here and there as a recruit. I also want to show more human emotions. As I was trying to be perfect with my first unit. I want to have this unit as one that will not be perfect at all. Althought he will get much better as he ranks up. For me it will be an improvement to my Roleplaying skills and maybe even loosing that character in some point.
     Now, for Michle it will be a horrible and a great experience. He thinks that life in the Nexus is easy and relaxed. He will find him slef beeing yelled at by higher units and trated like a scum. He will realize what he got him self into. He will start to regret it at some points of his life, but also think that he is lucky, luckt to be fed like that. Trained like that, and get paycheks. He will starts to get better as he ranks up, but recruit rank and an oh-four rank will be not the best for him. as he doesn't speak much he will not have a lot of friends in CCA, if any at all. It will be tough, but great experience for him.

4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words.
  Michle was born on April 5th, 1994 in United States, Utah. He was African-American, as a kid his dad taught him how to play basketball. When he got older he would always play Basketball in school and after school with his friends, he would play basketball too much as his mom told him. He wasn't too bad as a kid, but he started to play very well as he got to 5th grade. He also started watching baskeball games on TV, he got his eye on his state's team Utah Jazz. Utah Jazz wasn't a great NBA team back then, but it was slowly getting better and better. He then set his dream to become an NBA player someday, but what he really wanted is to get dreafted into Utah Jazz.
      When he got to Middle school he clearly was getting much taller then other kids. He played basketball on any free time he got by now. He got into his school's basketball team in 7th grade. He was always to be on the court when the game started, his team only lost 3 out of 16 games in the first season. He didn't speak much to kids on his team or any kids at all. He would always try his best, and think before he did any move.
       Once he got to high school he joined the basketball team as a freshman. He was the 2nd best player on his team until Junior year. That's when he became the best player on his team. His position was SF, he wasn't the best in defence, but scoring was his thing. His team always won the season, they became the best team in the state. He got a schoolarship as a senior, he thought it was his first step into the NBA.
   He went to Uivesity of Utah, he was also put in it's NCAA team. He was very happy with what he got, he would spend all his free time practicing with his teammates. His team had a very hard time in the first season, but they became  a very good team. He was very happy and thinking about rookie showcase, that he will be there someday.
    It was their last game of the year when the Portal Storms began, the stadium shook and the lights went out for about 30 seconds. The whole stadium became silent. The game stopped as the ball bounced in the driection that no one would know. After 20 seconds everyone started to panic as another Storm hit the stadium. Everyone tried to get out, running into the darkness, over people, over children... When the lights went back on, it seemed like a room full of cockrouches when the lights were turned on. Michle ran towards the emergency exit, as he ran out he saw the sunset over the small town that he lived in.
     The next day he woke up in his dorm, just to see his roommates watching the news about what happaned, including the footage from their game. He went to the courts to shoot some hoops, but another Portal Storm, much stronger this time went across the town. The pole got ripped out of the ground, almost crashing on top of Michle. Some of the old building collapsed. He heard sirens all over the town, police cars, firemen and ambulances went past him. He saw people running, he saw people crying... he thought the world would end. The power started to go out as the days went by, many riots occurred during the days of Portal storms.
     When the seven hour war started... Michle ran outside just to see an army invading Earth. He ran as fast as he could. He ran and ran until he couldn't anymore. He stopped and panted, he then looked around him, just to see fire and collapsed building... ruins. He found an open basement and was hiding there for 6 hours. He was found by a group of soilders, but they looked nothing like human would. He does not remember anything between that moment, and waking up on a bench in City 5.
      When the war was over, people didn't know what was happening. There was no food, water, or police force. Rumors started to spread about so called Universal Union invading Earth. Dr.Breen surrendering the whole human kind to them. As month passed Universal Union setup Combine Civil authority in the cities, which acted as a police force.Many who resisted where taken by them and never seen again. Some said they were made into slaves, others said they were made into elite soilders or killed. Michle was very angry at what happaned, his life was ruined, but he knew better not to resist. As he ate and ate the rations he slowly started to forget a lot of things of his past life. He didn't forget everything, but his memory had whie spots in it. Year passed after the Seven Hour War, Michle got very weak and skinny. He knew he was lossing his health and body to what he drank and ate. He always wondered why people who joined Combine Civil authority would always stay strong and healthy. He also noticed that they were very wealthy.
    He was relocated to City 45 for unknown reason. It was a very new environment for him, the city had much greater sociobility, there were much more units patroling. He slowly started to think of joining Combine Civil Authority. He knew he had to to survive, he wanted to eat healthier food. He wnated to keep the city sociostable. What he really wanted? He wanted to be wealthy and well fed. He knew he had everything to become a unit, he was tall, accurate and fast. He slightly chuckled as he finished his application and lokked at him-self. He lived his life as he would before, waiting for a reply.

5) Have you ever had a CCA character here at Catalyst Gaming?  If so, explain why it was removed.
Yes. It was never removed, I just devoloped this character to join CCA, I also want to have a lowe ranked unit.

« on: February 27, 2012, 06:30:32 PM »
   
      I found this in a car, a destroyed car in the Canals. I'm still not sure what's going on... I remember waking up in a bloody room, a man with a gas mask and trench coat looking at me. The he threw me out to a big city. I didn't know anything at first... my name, nor where I was.
A woman came in and gave me a handheld radio, she hugged me and cried... she then whispered "Deadbox.." I didn't know her though... Then a man came in and took her. I later went for a walk outside and started to get a little hungry. The man in the gas mask came up to me again and gave me a card. It had five numbers on it and a name, my name. It was my CID card. I then was told to get a ration, it was basically a packet with nasty water and food, also some kind of coins in it...
       
     The next day I found my self wondering around Canals, well it's called District Six, but the smell... the filth... I walked into a bar with a group of people in it. I saw the same woman from last time and people with her... they had guns. They brought me to a wearhouse and gave me some normal food and water. after that they told me almost everything about my past and what's going on. I now know that Race known as Universal Union or Combine took the Earth over in... Seven Hours? I also found out... that I was mind-wiped? Running away from the Civil Protection? I'm not sure what's going on... but I hope I find out...

Age: 25

How long have you been in City45:
I have beeing Living in City Fourty-Five for a Eight Month now.

Why do you want to join the CWU?:
I have my own store right now, but I can't sell as much things wiht my permit. Also I want to make lifes for Citizens better by helping the community by fixing things around City 45, or by selling food to hungry citizens who missed the ration cycle. Selling legal good would aslo keep citizens away from District Six and illegal activity.

Have you ever been detained before?(If so why):
No, I have not been detained before.

Past experience with work/labor:
When I was 18 I helped my mom around the store that she owned. When I became 21 she gave the store over to me and I was the manager of it, I might enough money to support my self too. This all happaned before the Seven Hour war of course. I also have a store currently and General Goods Permit.

Name 4 things the CWU Can possess, and 4 things we cant. Also state why.:
                         -Allowed Things-
1.Handheld Radio- CWU have their own frequency and need it to talk to each other, order things for their store or report an emergency or simply to call one each other for help.
2.Request Device- To call in Civil Protection in an emergency, if their store gets a thief they can call in for help. Really just any emergency they have that needs Civil Protection.
3.UU-Branded Goods - Those are legal goods that CWu can sell and are also basic needs for most Citizens.
4.Medical Aid- They reqire those to help injured citizens and even save lifes, they also have to use those wisely and know what they are doing if they do have some.
                        -Restricted Items-
1.Deadly Weapons - Non of CWU should posses any kind of a weapon, first of all they don't ever need it. Second of all weapons are illegal to everyone but CCA or COTA.
2.Non-UU Branded Goods - Why do CWU need Non-UU goods if they have UU godos which are better and safer. Non-UU goods are illegal and can get any worker detained.
3.Non-UU Clothing - Non-UU clothing is Level Three Contraband, which emans it's illegal to everyone and only UU Issued clothing should be worn.
4.Alcohol - Alcohol is not legal for anyone and is a dangerous drug, it can even result in death. CWU should never have alcohol in their possesion.


Tell us about what you can do.:
Before the Seven Hour War, I use to have my own store and made good profit out of it. I also had a hobby of messing around with technology and improving it in some ways. After the war I also got a store so I still have my skills in managing one. I would join the buisness division.
     

If a citizen asks for help and is new to the city, what would you do?:
 If a new citizen in the City asked me for help I would show him around the City. First I would show him where he can find his basic needs, things like Ration Distirbution Terminal, Union Civil Housing, and the stores in Plaza. I would also tell him not to enter District Six for his own good, but it is his choice and it is not off-limits to go in. Then I would tell him where not to go or what not to do so he doesn't get in trouble with Civil Protection. I would also show him around District Two. I would show him the CWU Clinic. Then I would give him a request device if I had an extra on me and tell him to use to to contact Civil Protection if he needed help. Lastly I would tell him to look for one of the Civil Workers if he ever got injured.

Roleplay Experience: 4 Years.
Serious Roleplay Experience: 2.5 - 3 Years.
Detail a regular day as a worker of the CWU?:
     I would start off with passive RP like getting ready for the day, going to the bathroom, brushing my hair, washing my face and more. Then I would see if any citizens around the city need help. If any do I would do my best to help them out, if they need medical help I would radio in for a medical worker and bring the citizen to him/her. If there was no one in medical division on I would do my best in first aid to see if I could help the citizen.
     Then I would manage a shop or a cafe if possible, if there is one already open I would see if they need help around there. If needed I would deliver any orders to the store.I would also do any jobs that I am assigned, like washing windows or repearing something. When the rations come on if I am not busy or needed I would go get them. When the day ends I would return to HQ and wait for the next day to come.

Character Backstory:
  Stephen was born in an Asian Family in United States in 1991. He went to school in California just like any other kid. He didn't do bad, but wasn't a perfect student too. As a kid he always would try to fix something or improve it, all though it didn't work all the time. When he was just 10 his family moved to United Kingdom due to his Father having a job there. His Mother opend a shop in Downtown area. They sold basic things like Soda, Snacks, Food. It was a Grocery Store, he helped his Mother here and there as a teenager, but didn't have too much time to help.
        The kids in school didn't take him in too well, as he was American and Asian. He got in a lot of fights and even kicked out of one school. He even thought of dropping out and helping his Mother in the shop for the rest of his life. He made it through the High School and started working with his Mother in the shop. After job he usually fixed things around the house or stayed in the basement to tinker with things.
      When he became 21 his Mother handed him over the store, he did great making good amount of profit. He eventually thought of opening a bigger store when he gets enough money. But his store did get robbed once, good thing it had camerasnear the counter, so the criminals got cought the same week. For the rest of the time he managed that store, until the Seven Hour War and things following it.
       After the war, he was first moved to City 97. The city was big and filthy, he was scared to go outside sometimes. He would only go out to get rations or to talk to his friend. The city was filled with pollution before the war so it was bad enough the Universal Union helped to make it a worst city. During June of 2015 the City was almost taken over by Anti-Civil Activity. City 97 started to get more and more controlled by Universal Union over time, sometimes Overwatch would march down the streets to bring fear to citizens. The city was more like a prison now, and got a lot of citizens sent there, it was very harsh. Instead of having loyalist there, they mostly had anti-civil citizens, and good citizens were relocated to a better place.  He was then relocated to City 45.
      City 45 felt much greater and safer, he started to go outside much more and getting more fiends. Few monthes later he started to think of becoming loyal to the Union. He felt very safe and wanted to pay the Union back by being loyal. He cleaned very hard and was working all day to show them his loyalty. he was very greatfull when he got the loyalist status. He then went on an Interview for buisness permit to continue his job at managing a shop. When he got the General Goods Permit he was very very happy. He had few friends end even though of asking one of them to help, but he thought they they should have a permit to.
      He opened up a store in Plaza and started selling things to anybody who needed them. He was again making good profit. He was living a happy life in City 45. What he then realized that CWU was the one helping citizens and CCA helping keep the order in the city. He wanted to help the citizens, he knew he could sell more things to people legally if he joined the CWU. He also didn't have that of a great opportunity to help the Citizens with what he had. He decided to Apply for Civil Workers Union. He is still managing his store and waiting for the application to be denied or accepted.

Stephen Jackson's Civil Authority Application

OOC Name: [?RG-A?] Saints Sasha

IC Character Name: Stephen Jackson

1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so.
Stephen never thought he would join Combine Civil Authority at first. He would always stay away from being bad or loyal. He would try to be fair to his fellow citizens, even if he saw them getting mugged he would never tell on a mugger. he always thought they were just trying to survive. He would never speak to CCA Unit unless spoken to.
   After living in the City under Universal Union's control he started to realize that CCA was not the bad one. He even seen them saving citizen's life before. He started to think differently about CCA and UU overall. He slowly got out of his shell and started to help CCA by first cleaning, then reporting crimes and more. He started to get more and more loyal. He eventually became a loyalist.
     He even then didn't think of joining CCA. He got a store too, he had Chang helping him. He was happy with the tokens he was making and lived a happy life. On a cold and rainy night two men came in. He greeted them, but insted of gtreeting him back they took out a 9MM pistol and pointed it at his head. They told him to give them everything they have. He went in the back and quickly got out a request device with his hands shaking. The CCA unit got there in no time. although the robbers got away he realized he wanted to stop criminals after that. He decided he wanted to apply for CCA, so he did. Now he is waiting for the response.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
He is Lazy sometimes, but only when he is tierd. It is also very hard to anger him, he will stay calm while getting his friend killed. It is very hard to gain his trust, he needs to know you very well to trust you. He thinks of others before thinking of himself.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.
    Well, for my character it will be very scary and cold when he joins. He will try to make friends, but friends that he can trust. He will try ihs best to stay out of trouble, if he screws up he will try and cover it up somehow. He will also try and do best at his job and fight his laziness. He will be very scared of any unit that is a higher rank then him, even oh-fours sometimes. But he will eventually get use to CCA and better at his job.
 
        For me, it would be very fimiluar playing as a CCA, but I will try my best to Roleplay like it's my first time. I will even mess up a lot as a recruit. I want a second CCA character to try and devolope his using my now improved Roleplaying skills, I will be very terrified to even touch a weapon to kill someone at first. Overall I want this to be my backup character so I'm not always nervous about lossing my other CCA character.

4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words.
Stephen was born in California, Los Angeles on December 21, 1991. He lived in an Asian Family, but they spoke English and lived in USA.  He didn't have the best childhood, few friends here and there. Most of his friends really weren't his friends, so he started to loose trust to random people he met. He would never talk to anyone he didn't know, unless they spoke to him. He would get to know the person very well before he would consider the person his friend. He wasn't rich nor poor, he lived in an apartment Complex near a highway. When he became 15 his father had a job opportunity in Finland.
      His family then moved to Finland, they lived in a small town in the countryside. His Father now was a Server Manager in Company called, CSC. "Computer Soft Co."
His father did make more money now, but they still were not rich. He never learned any European language, but his mother did. She had a store near a highway going to the city. When he got out of school he worked there all his life until the Seven Hour War...
    He also loved to tinker with things he found at the dump near his house. He would invent very interesting things some times. He made his own computer once from nothing but trash. He would upgrade the store that he worked in in many ways when he could. He installed an alarm and a radio inside one of the walls. All to say he was a technology freak.
       When the Protal Storms first started to happen, he moved out of his house in search of a safe place to stay. He stopped in an old farm ans stayed there for few days. On a warm morning he woke up to sounds of explosions and gunfire. He quickly got up and looked outside... he couldn't even think of what he saw. When the war was over he was moved straight to City 45. At first it was an isolated town, then people started to be moved in by Universal Union. The City started to get a bigger CCA force every week. at first the City was under perfect Control, but of course some people started to resist. The CCA still kept almost perfect Control Over the City.
     After getting use to the new World, Stephen started to realize that it would be much smarted to be loyal then to resist. He eventually became a loyalist and felt great about it. He then got a store with General Goods Permit and started selling things and making good amount of money. He thought he would do that for the rest of his life. But one night he almost got robbed, he called in a CCA Unit which probably saved his life.  After that night he decided to apply for CCA for the better good. He made an application and waited...

Lost Citizen
Dark... cold floor, that's what I felt when I woke up. I couldn't really see anything. I tried to walk to an exit, but I didn't know where it was. Then a bright light blinded me, when I could see again I saw a dark shadow standing at the door way. I heard it say in a robot like voice, "Anti-Citizen, get down!". I knew who that was then, the best thing would be to run. I still had trouble seeing but I started to get used to the darkness little by little, I tripped few times and then I heard pistol shots behind me. The tile on the wall near me exploded as the bullet hit it. I heard vocies behind me say, "This is your final warning!". Then I saw a door and I ran straight for it and kicked it with all my strength, the door made a loud bang and a bright light hit me again. I now was in a alley with a lot of boxes, trashbags, grass, and junk. I started running as fast as I could through the alley as the bullets flew right near my face, if I made it out it would be luck. I knocked over some boxes near me to hold of Civil-Protection, but they easily jumped over the boxes. Boom! My ears started ringing and I felt slight pain as I turned around to see what happened. Everything behind me was on fire and the two units seemed dead, I looked at the roof and saw 3 dark shapes ran off.
   What did just happen? Then I realized that those dark shapes on the roof proboblly shot the barrels with fuel as Civil-Protection Units passed near them. They saved my life, but who were they? Then a loud female voice announced the location where the units were killed and I knew then this wasn't over just yet... I started running again to the end of the alley, when I finally made it there I turned left and ran straight into another citizen, we both fell on the ground. "What the hell!", he yelled, "You could of killed me!", I stood up quickly and walked away. I finally made it to my apartment and dropped on the couch.
     City 97 was not safe anymore not that it ever was, but now that the resistance started pushing Civil-Protection the Overwatch moved into the city, mindless, and brutal soilders who once use to be humans. You would be lucky if you didn't get shot getting your ration which tasted like shit. I had to catch my breath so I got some old water out of the broken fridge and layed on the couch drinking it. Before I knew it I fell asleep. My neighbor John woke me up at about 4pm and told me to get out of the apartments. I got some of my leftovers and packed them in my old suitcase. I walked out of the building and cold air hit my face, the sky was dark, it was going to rain hard so I had to find shelter soon. I knew there was an old bar somewhere around the Block and no one ever went there even Civil-Protection so I headed off there. When I got there I went to the back door because I knew the front enterance had a bio-lock on it. I still had to break the lock on the back door. I looked around for something usefull to break the lock, I saw a wooden plank, but I knew it would break as soon as I put pressure on it. Then I saw gas pipe system on the wall of the bar, so I unscrewed the screws with my hands and took the rusty old pipe out. I just hit the door and made a hole in it, then I kicked it few times to make the hole bigger and crawled in. The storage was dark and the floor was wet, I tried to pick up an old wooden crate but it broke into peices as soon as I touched it. Then I heard thunder so loud the the building shook. I found another door but it was unlocked, I pushed it it made a high pitched screeching noise as it opened. I entered a room with windows, I looked outside and it was raining very hard. In the corner the ceiling was leaking and made a puddle on the floor. I realized that I forgot to ask why John told me to get out of the apartments, but I knew it was for a good reason. I heard Combine APC pass by, was it a raid?
     Then I heard someone opening the bio-lock, I jumped up and opened the closet near me and got inside of it. It was Civil-Protection, one of the units said, "Engaging in Cleanup." What the hell did he mean by that? Civil-Protection never entered this bar why would they now? The flash of light got the the crack in the door for just 2 seconds, then the light was flashing straight at my eye I took a deep breath and stopped moving. Suddenly the closet door opened and a Civil-Protection unit was pointing a gun straight at my face, my adrenaline started pumping and I kicked the unit in the stomach as hard as I could. He fell down and screamed in pain, "Shit!". I ran out of the bar triping over everything, then I heard the units scream in the background "Need back up at Block 69E!". I turned around the corner and I realized I was in Sector 6... The most dangerous Sector in the City 97 also called Slums, this Sector was the home for all the Resistance members and the Combine had no control over it at all, although they did lunch headcrab containers there every week or so, but it usually don't do any harm.
           
               Then I realized that joining Resistance could be the only thing I could do after everything I've done. I didn't really know what to do to join Resistance, but maybe asking someone might help. I expected the streets of Sector 6 would be filled with rebels, but the streets were empty and destroyed. I heard someone scream, "Incoming!", and suddenly from the direction of Overwatch Nexus something came straight at me with smoke behind it making a loud sound, I tried jumping out of the way, but that thing was going way to fast it hit the wall of a building right next to me and sliced right through it then I heard a loud bang and gun shots. Smoke started pouring out of the hole where the conister hit, I realized that was headcrab conister. The streets were still empty, but then I saw shadows passing on the ground I looked up and saw a group of people jumping over the roof. The last guy to jump tripped and fell right next to me and he seemed to be unconscious.

*The Journal pages seem old and yellowish*
          The L--t


       Another relocation? Again? City 18, City 11, City 17, City 97, Now City 45? I'm not that lucky, no, but I'm the only one of my friends to make it through all this. I don't have friends anymore, why? The Combine. I lost everything to them, everything but my life. I can't watch them use humanity as a recourse anymore... I know they will kill me sooner or later like everybody else. If they will, what's the point of just waiting? Atleast I could try and help stopping them... and die for a reason. But what do I have to do that? Fighting them? Maybe, byt not the best idea for now... resisting doesn't mean fighting... it means stopping... and before I die, I want to resist and die with honor. *few dark blood stains or on the bottom of the page blocking out the text* -st. I just need some help...
