[OOC I had things to do the other day so I couldn't post my new character idea then... but here it is today!]
Name: Ian O'Reiley [AKA The Pain Beat!]
Age:24 Height: 6'3" Weight: 160 lbs Build: Wirey
Eyes:Ice Blue Hair: Dyed blood red, really dirty blond
American born Scotsmen
Occupation: Drummer in critically acclaimed "Undead Alienation" metal band, some slight mechanical skills from when he was 16-19 working with his mechanic father in car shop, but didn't take it too seriously.
Clothing: Tattered black denim jeans with the words "Future Dictator of the World" written in scarlet red embrodiered onto his left pants leg, black Vans shoes size 14 that he wears cause of comfortablity, Ozzefest t-shirt [black of course] that has Ozzy Osbourne's name autographed on it [blood splotches it, none of it is his own], black leather jacket with Skull and Crossbones on the back [left arm of jacket missing with part of the shoulder gone from attack by ex-bandmate/zombie, also splotched with blood, none his own].
Tattoos: One on his back of an angel and demon fighting, one on his penis that reads "Welcome Aboard!", a joking reference to his 3 week stay in the Navy... discharged for insubordination [or as he calls it "All play and no work"].
Peircings: Various silver rings in his ears, a gold one in his left eyebrow and a tongue stud.
Carrying: Prescription drug bottle filled with Speed in left inner jacket pocket, back right pocket of pants holds wallet, brass knuckles in left jacket pocket [crusted with blood], his Lucky drumsticks [tips crusted with blood] in a special lining in his jacket, right inner pocket of jacket a packet of cigs and a metal butane lighter, back left pants pocket a flask filled with whiskey, strapped to back his former lead singer's/guitarist's bone white electric guitar [hair, bone fragments and blood on the base of it].
Background: A party loving guy by nature, his father tried to beat it out of him since he was 7. At 16, he was forced to work for his father, but was always practicing the drums at one of the mechanic's house instead of working. His father then forced him to join the Navy like he did when he turned 19, but for excessive partying, rowdyiness and fighting, he was immediantly discharged less than 3 weeks later. He was disowned by his father, and while bumming at a friend's house, heard how the band "Undead Alienation" needed a new drummer cause the last one got a bit too wasted and was struck by a car. He won out in a compition against 59 other drummers and was signed on to join the band as it's newest member. Has been touring successfully for 5 years till the rise of the zombies, now has been just trying to survive the best he can.
[OOC and there you have it folks! That's my character. Now if you have any suggestions on how he gets to the mall with the other survivors, please speak up... I always am open to feed back]
Ok.. the previous night [Night of the Living Dead], Ian and his other bandmates were out partying when someone came up upon them and bit everyone save Ian, who with the help of his friends, wrestled down the mad man and accidently snapped his neck. They bolted to the hotel suite they were staying in cause they had a show the next day to do and didn't want to be a part of a murder case... just yet anyways, at least till the show was over.
A few hours pass at the suite and Ian bolts out of the hotel after having to kill his friends, who became ghouls... thankfully they turned one at a time instead of all at once or poor Ian would've been dinner.
He knew he was in deep shit... not because of the zombies but he knew someone would blame him for murder instead of self defense. So only carrying what is on him and the guitar he used to bludgen his band mates to re-death, he hopped into Undead Alienation's signiture vehicle instead of the tourbus... a hearse that had been customized into a muscle car.
He drove all the way to Testment Mall at night... and as the place was closing up, convinced a die hard fan, who turned out to work one of the music stores, to lock him in for the night... if he did, he promised to bring his 'mates' and perform here in the mall, drawing customers to his store and then giving him all the credit for the idea... the young man took the bait. Before he left Ian, he brought him some food such as candy bars and burgers... even raiding a nearby wine department for some booze and wine.
So that is how Ian is in the mall... totally wasted, passed out in the music store in a back room, the gate closed over the store to keep out any ghouls... and now he is just starting to wake up with a wicked hangover... having no clue that the world has ended.
[Well that work for how he got in the mall? I don't have time now to put up a proper intro in the actual SRP, but I will soon, ok?]
works perfectly for me..amusing yet still in the realm of completely plausible.. some how I get the feeling he's going to be an obnoxious dick..but still a like able one
~smiles~ Glad to her it madam....it is a pain when real life gets in the way of online fun......lol~kisses hand~ I look foward to a wonderful adventure.....
Anyone know what he fuck happened to my post I put up yesterday?
I come online to see if anyone posted after me... and Stagedfright has... but for some reason both MY post and her's have disappeared.... now I don't know about the rest of ya'll but I am pissed that my post has been either deleted or for some stupid reason the SRP just won't show mine and obviously stagedfright's posts after krazeykayoottee. I am contacting a moderator to find out of if something is just F'dup or if someone told them to delete mine and her's. Here' to hoping it is a glitch that can be fixed easily enough.
the boards were acting really strange about 8 hours ago, I believe the db server ran out of memory or simular. I fyour post happened to have go in right at that time, it might bave been fouled up.
