The Valliance Resort [PG-16]

[Shiney]

OOC: I've managed to refurbish an old classic for actual use on PC, enjoy! 8D

"Feeling bored? Does your life seem lackluster? Do you need a change of pace? Try The Valiance resort. A bustling Vacation resort centered on some of the prime Coastline of California. This amazing vacation home is always in high demand, but for a limited time, a number of young persons will be allowed in free! For your chance to win a stay in the Valiance Resort, please send…"

This is but one of many flyers for the Valliance Resort; an always-full vacation resort in California. The reason that it's always full is that very few of its occupants are allowed to leave. Several years ago, Canada, The U.S., Mexico, and a number of minor South American governments made an agreement in the interest of science, to abduct slight portions of the population under the strictest of conditions for secrecy. Then, these unfortunate individuals are taken to facilities for modern experimentations to alter the person in many ways.

Upon the completion of the procedure, they are shipped to various resorts across the world, where the 'patient's' progress are monitored, and hopefully, released into their new life. In this case, we'll be following the progress of several patients at the Valiance resort in California, run by Gerald Vallin, and the best of the best in care and peacekeeping staff.

Our start however, is a little more unusual. Gathered as part of the test for an unusual new process, without consent, we are taken the resort, and to put it simply, our genders could have been changed, our ages altered, our basic status as entirely human, or any number of other modifications. Now, we find ourselves in a bit of a predicament, dumped off in the slums of the city, with no idea if the operation is damaging, or even fatal in the long term, we're left to sort things out ourselves.

((Interesting concept... it really gives you a chance to get inside of your character's brains. I suppose I'll begin my sign-up... but I'll be a little pressed when it comes to history. This'll be a made up on-the-spot character, as mine usually are, so if it comes out weird, well then, too bad for me.))

Name: Shane Delver

Age: 17 (note- age is assumed due to Shane's amnesia)

Gender: Male originally (once again, assumed...), Female after coming into physical contact with a person of opposite gender. Reverts to male after touching a guy.

Appearance: Shane is really, really filthy- but then, that's really only to be expected when you fall out of a window into a dumpster and steal civilian clothes from some random drunk in the street. He/she wears a large, tattered overcoat with a loose-fitting "lumberjack" shirt underneath. As for pants, he/she wears a pair of loose-fitting jeans with holes where the knees should be and slight rips near the ankle portions. When it comes to hair, Shane has long, tangled grey hair as both a guy and girl (it changed grey due to the shock he/she experienced while being experimented on). His/her eyes are a sort of chestnut brown, and her/his (thought I'd reverse the order for once) build as either gender is usually described as "light but fit" by those who have seen him/her/it/whatever. (For brevity's sake, I'll refer to Shane as a "he" from now on...). Shane has theorized that he might have been an endurance athlete at some point, but he isn't really certain on this point, or any other for that matter. His build as a girl is such that he only looks slightly different after switching genders. His skin is a slightly odd shade of pale white due to complications with the experiment removing his skin's ability to produce melanin, forcing him to avoid direct sunlight whenever possible.

Personality: Shane is never sure about anything due to his amnesia. When questioned, his usual response is something along the lines of "I think this... but I'm probably wrong." While Shane does have a slightly pessimistic view of life as we know it, he tends to be able to see the humorous side of things as well... he considers himself to be a "satirist", someone who sees how messed up the world is but still realizes that being messed up is what makes the world such an interesting place. Shane often becomes annoyed with himself, usually because he wasn't paying attention and missed something obvious, or because he has unintentionally initiated yet another gender switch. His favorite activities include making sadistic comments, arguing about nothing in particular, and hitting himself over the head repeatedly for being some kind of nut.

History: Ahem... Shane doesn't really remember much about life beyond the Valliance Resort and his subsequent unintentional escape from its facilities due to his amnesia. What he does know, however, is that his "gender switching" capability is the result of a failed attempt to create a human being with the ability to shift appearances and genders at will. Shane is, at this point, glad that the operation was only testing the gender switcher, and not the appearance, due to the fact that appearance swapping would be much harder to explain, and not as easy to predict as his gender swapping. His personal escape from the resort involved making a comment that freaked out another "patient" and resulted in his falling from a three-story window. He woke up six hours later in a dumpster with nothing on but a hospital gown, and now clue what to do. After "relieving" a sacked-out bum of his clothing, Shane hit the road, with no clue what the heck he was going to do next.

RP sample: (I still need to finish this.)

 

[Gohan]

Yeah. I think I can finish everything we need tonight.

Name: Erik Mitchells
Age: 16(Was 20, which I still think is young enought to count as young)
Gender: Male(Switched to female obviously, amn this'll be fun)
Appearance: Mr./Ms. Erik Mitchells has hazel hair, which is straight and reaches down to his mid-neck range. It has a certain girly look to it. His eyes are also brown, but a dark brown. He is of small frame, even when he was 20. Only 5 foot 1 inch, he's a pretty short guy. Not particularly toned or muscular, he's not fat either. Usually wearing jeans and an old sweatshirt, he doesn't go shopping a lot. The few jeans he has are all dark blue, except for one pair, which are a red plaid. His sweatshirt he has is black of course, short-sleeved, and says 'Burton' on it.
Personality: (Mmmkay, I'm not so good at these, since my character's personality usually depends on the moment, so.) Somewhat pessimistic, Erik enjoys what he has. Being an overall friendly and likeable guy isn't too bad either. One of the more popular kids, he isn't really that obnoxious or anything despite being popular. Quiet and shy, he just sits and does schoolwork, while all the kids are being loud and noisy around him.
History: Erik grew up with just his mother, his dad having died before he was born. Being fairly poor, they had a small house, and Erik grew up on too little food, and in an empty house. At fifteen, he decided to get a job to help his mother out, and ended up working at the local bookstore. It wasn't much he made, but it was enought to satisfy him. In the end, he moved out of his mother's house and to another nearby. Every once in a while, he would visit, and give her some money. And then, she died. His few close friends forced him to go to The Valliance Resort, saying he needed to rest his mind.
Roleplaying Sample:

The rather wolfish dog ran, and ran. The large paws clomped along the paved streets, and it was narrowly avoiding being run over. Past a house, past another house, past a shop, down and alley, and through a yard it went. It finally made its way towards a large clearing in a forest, with a large pole sticking out of the ground. Near the center of the clearing, sitting in the brown dirt, sat a human male. The dog made it's way over to the boy, the strange boy who had fire licking his left palm.
Seeing the dog, the color from the teen's face immediently drained, and he extinguished the flame in his hand.
"Jin..."
The dog spoke these simple words, and the boy immediently felt a wave of dread wash over him. For his dog only talked when it was absolutely neccesary.
"Bear. They're coming, aren't they?" The boy, Jin asked his dog, not at all surprised it could speak. Jin stood up and kicked off his shoes. Taking his old clothes from the brown messenger's bag beside him, he shed the sweatshirt and pants he was wearing, and put on the same clothes he had from a past time.
At that moment, the forest went black, and time seemed to stop. Shadows played across the dark clearing, and Jin created massive flames of black resting in his hands. His normally pale pink hair had turned a deathly black, and the look in his eyes could kill. Bear, too, had changed. His shaggy fur had bristled up, and his fangs and claws were now largely noticeable.
The rage Jin felt from everything he knew being ripped away in a second was breaking out of his mind. The flames grew larger and larger, until he finally let the power go and dropped his hands to his sides, his hands which could produce flame in the blink of an instant. He walked, and every step he took left a burning footstep in the ground.
"I am going to kill you," he snarled, stopped and stared upwards towards the dark sky.

 

[CyBeastSaber]

Hahaha... this sounds extremely fun already... XD Won't twist my character too much :P

Name: Mei Hakesho
Age: 16 (15 now)
Gender: female (somehow, random gender swapping didn't work so she retains her female self)
Appearance: Mei has short orange hair, that was originally brown, that reaches her shoulders. Her eye color has changed from crystal blue to a dark amber shade. Despite her petite body size, she is very fit, healthy, clean, and a bit well figured too. Her clothing consists of a blue shirt over a loose brown long-sleeved shirt with a brown skirt with shorts under them. She wears white running shoes and a pair of white and gray socks. Around her neck is a sapphire pendant she received from her parents on Graduation Day for outstanding achievement.
Personality: Mei is very friendly and cheerful. She's also very dedicated and loyal to her friends. Mei dislikes thinking about the negative things of life and tries her best to live her life to the fullest as well as with happiness. She may seem a bit shy but that's only to people she doesn't know and some times she may be abashed by her own odd actions.
History: When Mei was born, she was thought to had been blessed with much talent and skills or so her parents thought. Her parents weren't poor but weren't rich as well. They lived in a small town where everyone knew everyone and when time came for school, they would send her to the city about a few miles away to live with her aunt. As she grew up, she developed her speaking skills, analyzing skills, etc. very quickly leading to her promotion from 1st grade to 3rd grade with her level of skills. As she grew, she became popular among many people, even some of the older people, because of her kindness and friendlyness as well as her willingness to aid others. As she progressed through high school, she studied hard and graduated her junior year. Her parents were so thrilled that they gave her the flyer that had a picture is a resort with "The Valliance Resort" written on the top. Mei's parents thought she needed a break from all the hard work but little did hey know what will become of their daughter when they sent her there.

RP sample:
With a heavy slump and a long sigh of relief, Mei dropped her large backpack that hung from her petite back onto the soft, green carpet floor that landed with a small thud echoing slightly in her room before Mei ,herself, fell back side onto her bed with it's soft and comfortable blue sheets sprawled over her bed. Mei's silky, brown hair glistened when the rays of sunlight that crept through her window shades touches her hair. Mei closed her crystal blue eyes and began to drift off into sleep when she was interrupted by a soft rap on the door. Opening her eyes and with her two small arms hoisted herself up, Mei saw that it was her mother by the door slightly waving and calmly smiling at her. Mei knew something was up to make her mother smile calmly by her door.

"Have you any problems, Mother?" Mei asked in her usual calm, analyzing voice. Her mother did nothing else except smile for a few more seconds before motioning her to meet in the living room. Mei, still suspecting of something odd, raised herself off the bed, slightly brushed off her skirt which had attracted just a small speck of dust on it, and left the room. After walking through a small corridor no longer than 5 feet long, the living room had revealed itself in its usual spotless gleam. Mei's mother sat on a three-person couch while her father sat in a single-person chair reading the newspaper. The couch and chair formed an L shaped perimeter around a coffee table that is in the middle of the room.

Mei felt uneasy about her parents' unusal actions that day but they sure seemed more cheerful than usual. Mei couldn't resist but had to ask, " Okay, mother and father... something seems to be odd about you two today... care to tell me now? or do I have to force it out of you later?" Mei put on a gentle but serious face that always struck the parents out making them usually revealing their thoughts. However, before they said anything else, they placed a flyer, about maybe 5 to 8 inches in width and height, on the coffee table and pushed it towards Mei, who stood staring at the flyer.

"Feeling bored? Does your life seem lackluster? Do you need a change of pace? Try The Valiance resort. A bustling Vacation resort centered on some of the prime Coastline of California. This amazing vacation home is always in high demand, but for a limited time, a number of young persons will be allowed in free! For your chance to win a stay in the Valiance Resort, please send…" Mei silently read in her mind before she turned her attention back to her parents.

"Are you two sendig me on a vacation?" Mei pondered.

"Yes, dear. You studied too hard and need to relax once in a while. This'll be a perfect time for you to have fun and just meet new people." Her father said glancing at her out of the corner of his eyefrom the newspaper. "We've no time to waste. Hurry and go pack already. There might not be any space left for you to go in." Mei's father ordered. Mei slightly bowed before saying, "I understand." with a sad yet excited look before exiting the room.

"This may be the best vacation I might have in my life." Mei mumbled to herself while calmly folding her clothes she might be wearing plus much more things.

[Ninja Paladin]

Name: Crisis Retribution
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Wearing a grey labcoat he stole from a pharmacy, he soon stole more clothes. Now dressed in baggy black jeans, a black shirt and a grey labcoat, he was turned into a form of Neko so his tail remains curled around his waist loking more like a belt then an actual tail. He also has the trademark cat ears that he hides under a stolen baseball cap, with faint dark tan stripes all over his body he evades remaining in one place too long in fear of how others will react upon seeing him.
Personality: Indifferent to the world around him, he will try and shrug off any contact with others. He prefers lurking in the shadows due to his appearance but if anyone could gain his trust he would appear friendly to them.
History: Having been raised in an orphanage no-one really noticed when he went missing, his parents both died with the cause of death being a mystery. He is promised to one woman but he doubts he will ever see here again, he struggles to embrace what he has become and now shuns anything to do with others preferring his solitude now.
RP sample:
Crisis awakes slowly on the day of his adoption, he climbs out of his bed and slowly rubs the sleep from his eyes. Sighing softly he reaches into his small wardrobe and pulls on his last remaining set of clothes, then he pulls open the door to his room and smiles softly at his beloved's door. Knowing she is still asleep he grabs his backpack from it's place in the hallway next to his door.

Slightly nervous he walks down the stairs and stops suddenly knowing something isn't right as a man in a black suit takes his backpack. He starts to protest before the orphange manager silences him.
"You should be glad someone's adopted you Crisis otherwise you would have been out on the streeet instead today."
Crisis glares at him then nods softly, hanging his head in sadness. He looks to the man in the suit who walks outside, looking back up the stairs he sighes and grabs a business card before the orphanage manager can stop him.

He walks outside and stands next to the man as a van stops in front of them, the van suddenly opens and the man jumps in before two arms reach out and pull Crisis in before he can react. Then as they spray something in his face Crisis quickly wraps his hand tightly around the business card as he fades into the darkness for now, safe in the knowledge that no-one will be able to take the business card from his hand without breaking it.

OOC: Hmm, Art_Critic_Cubone, no sample, but it still looks good. JCB, I can't accept that signup. Other than that, everything's looking good everyone. I'm still waiting on one more person, but hopefully soon, we can get this started~

 

[Miyu-chan]

Going to re-use a character that I never had a chance to play... xD

Name: Dysis Aray
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: Dysis possesses jet black hair, with a hint of auburn when reflected underneath the rays of the sun. Her hair reaches to the middle of her back, where is it tied loosly at the bottom with a thin rubberband. She has long windswept bangs in the front, which allows the casual observer to notice her unique eyes - the clearest crystal blue with rims of green around the pupils. Her eyes are fairly large, framed by short eyelashes and thin, arching eyebrows.
Her face is often set in a determined look, her thin eyebrows furrowed. Her walk is weary yet graceful, her petite form aged from bearing such a heavy burden for one still so young. Her skin has a tan complexion from being out in the sun so often.

She dresses planly, oftentimes in a plain t-shirt and low-rise jeans.

History: Dysis was born into a lower-middle class family, consisting of her older brother and her mother. Her father walked out on them after Dysis was born, with the intent to pursue a 'Bachelor's lifestyle'. Despite all this, her mother raised them both and they lived a fairly comfortable lifestyle since her mom worked a steady job of being the editor of the local newspaper. However, after her brother passed away, her happy lifestyle fell into one of grief and sorrow. Her mother became severly depressed, refusing to talk, look, or see anyone - not even Dysis. However, after one night, she came home to find her mother missing and gone,leaving no trace that she ever existed. Afterwards, she has been arrested on several counts for vandalizing the city, though in the end she agreed to work as a painter for them - till now.

Personality: The best way to describe her personality would be to compare her to a Sea Urchin. Dysis is aloof, though at no means shy - she values her silence and solitude. When touched at her sensitive points (such as her family), she becomes extremely aggressive and bitter towards the offender. Underneath the sharp exterior though, rests a scared and frightened soul. She is unsure of her destiny, of the chance of finding a cure, and of her mother's life or death. The only thing that gives her confidence is her passion for painting - which she practices day and night, resorting to grafitii if nothing else is possible.
Painting, to her, is a vital part of her life - her passion, just as a religion may be to a religious person.

RP Sample: [edit later] but must I? xD

 

[pokefan89]

Name: Jacob Holcomb
Age: 16 originally (turns 5 when scared)
Gender: male
Appearance: Jacob is a bit on the small side, both in height and in width. He is rather good looking, with tanned skin and nice features, though his unkempt hair mostly ruins the look. He usually wears a plain white T-shirt and blue jeans, and he was able to steal these out of the back of a truck. As a five year old, he is about two feet shorter, but not much thinner; his face has the usual little boy charm and impishness, in addition to the cuteness factor.
Personality: Very down to earth in most respects, Jacob is nonetheless very proud of his appearance. He is a very trustworthy person, and easily scared, especially when he is in an unfamilar area. Also, he is generally shy and friendly, though he is liable to be extremely belligerent whenever anyone attempts to control him. He has an extreme fear of fire (of any type) and will always seek to avoid it.
History: Jacob spent his entire life living in the country, never once entering a city. He was always treated kindly by everyone he knew and basically led a good life until his parents died in a fire only three months before. Since then, up until the experiment, he lived with his grandparents, where he was not allowed outside except for school.
RP sample: Can I put a link to an RP I've done in the past?
