Well, here's my RG character
******

Spieces - Cat - American Shorthair

Age - 21 (6 in human years)

Neighborhood - Radient Gardens

Appearance - Shadé has black fur on most of his body, with the exception of the area from his chin down to his stomach, which is grey. The tips of his ears, nose, fingers and toes, however, are a bright orange. His tail is no definate color, as it changes depending on his mood. He has a green collar with a tree trunk as the tag. He wears a brown strap over his shoulder which he uses to carry his two-wheeled skateboard whenever he's not riding it.

Personality - Normally happy and jumping around, Shadé has a carefree spirt. However, despite his name, Shadé is scared of the dark and prefers to be in the sunshine. Quick to make friends, he often does something stupid to lose them, only to get them back five minutes later.

Other Notes-

Prefix this by saying that I think I took the last slot, as says my math. Someone please tell me if I'm wrong.
Edit: VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID VOID

Name: K-bar
Species: Cat (Abyssinian)
Age: 3 dog years, 21 human years
Neighborhood: Radiant Gardens (I hope!)

Gang: Founder, Leader of, and (so far) sole member of the Feline Pyromaniacs Association (FPA)

-Appearance-
If you were to remove the five hand grenades, four sticks of dynamite, det cord, time fuses, gasoline, matches, mini-flamethrower, and fireworks attached to an olive drab combat vest and matching collar from his person, K-bar would look normal. As it is, he is definitively NOT normal and constantly smells of singed whiskers, burnt hair, smoke, and cordite (explosive charges). Originally, his fur was brown. Years of exploding, igniting, and incinerating objects has turned said fur dark gray. A liberal dousing with warm soapy water is required to wash the ash out, and even then, his fur is STILL stained dark-brown. He also has a chunk of his ear missing, due to a child-hood incident.

-Personality-
Three things make K-bar happy: explosions, fire, and more explosions. He’s also completely insane: hyperactive, nearly bi-polar, and full of enough ideas to destroy things to make him a terrorist if he were human. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of bombs and such but is otherwise unremarkable in the intelligence department. He is also musically inclined with a decent baritone (he sings covers of Frank Sinatra) which he commonly employs when rigging bombs.

-Other Notes-
As a kitten, K-bar got lost in the desert at Andrews Air Force Base. Nobody really knows HOW he got there, only that he somehow survived getting shelled by an F-15’s 2,000 lbs bomb. He came out of the experience shell-shocked, unhinged, and thoroughly in awe of the power of a bomb. His obsession started from there. It’s worth noting that his owner is a mechanical engineer that is also obsessed with bombs and enables K-bar’s exploits, but instead directs his own energies toward the design of bombs for work instead of actually setting them off. K-bar’s favorite food are Nature Valley Granola Bars and his favorite non-explosive activity is sleeping.

I think that's too adult of a rating for the entire forum, to be honest.

If you can edit your character to being "pet friendly" (meaning kid friendly), it might be all right.

So, I'm thinking I'm gonna redo the map for RV. I'll follow the original layout, but the houses will be bigger, to accommodate names, and I'll add in buildings and such. If anyone from another neighborhood wants me to make a map for theirs, PM me with any special buildings that aren't character's houses, and landmarks. Also, I'm thinking that house ownership might need to be reset, for two reasons: 1. I don't remember who had what. 2. With the constant fluctuation of players, I think it would be beneficial to just reset it. If I'm given the ok from y'all, I'll give you the map, and you can claim what house you want. Does that work?

Well, I've got to get approval from the RP mod first, and I'd imagine that it'd be fairer if the players who already have characters in the RP got first-pick. Of course, if you get a character and get involved before I finish, then, by all means.

Okay, so I edited it, but I may have gone to the other extreme.... dang. Whatevs, I'll post it and then edit as needed.
Edit: Last name changed.

Name: K-bar Coltelliano
Species: Cat (Abyssinian)
Age: 8 years, 28 human years

Gang: None, really, but willing to help in any gang that requires assistance.

-Appearance-
Well, originally, K-bar’s fur was brown. Years of slightly traumatizing experiences with exploding and burning objects has turned said fur dark gray. A liberal dousing with warm soapy water is required to wash the ash out, and even then, his fur is STILL stained dark-brown. He also has a chunk of his ear missing, due to a child-hood incident.

-Personality-
K-bar’s a rather… off-kilter kitty. He’s been with various owners, notably with a Marine detachment in Iraq (somehow, he survived the experience) and a stint as Base Mascot at Andrews Air Force Base. The various military related experiences as well as explosive related incidents have permanently changed him, giving him a distaste for loud noises and nightmares of explosions and lava. However, he also happens to have received extensive abilities perception, running, and hiding skills as a side-effect and is easily a cat more prone to violence (a la Grape, not a la Kill Everything). Also is slightly anti-social and helpful when called upon. Note that he copes with the trauma by being hyperactive, but only in groups. Alone, he stares contemplatively at the wall or naps and is extremely quiet. Overall, he appears to be well-adjusted, considering his past mental trauma.

-Other Notes-
The mentioned child-hood incident is when, as a kitten, he was accidentally left at the test-site for a thermobaric bomb. Following the age-old-tradition of “hide if you have no idea what’s happening”, he was able to prevent incineration when the F-15 dropped its ordinance. The flying debris took a chunk out his ear when he was blown from his hiding place by the over-pressure. This event prompted his putting up for adoption and eventual transportation to Iraq, then Afghanistan, (over the course of three years). He’s only recently been adopted by a Vietnam veteran who could use the company and sympathy and the pair lead a relaxed life grilling hamburgers and napping, with the occasional smattering of neighborhood drama.

I must protest! K-Bar the Pyro sounds like an AWESOME Character! He doesn't have to be constantly setting things on fire, only show an interest, which of course can add alot of interest to things. The timid one isn't as interesting.

Why do they have to be so emo? You make them sound so depressed... Shouldn't it be funny and entertaining too, like the comic?

The first draft of K-Bar was much to violent. I'm all for having the rp be as entertaining and funny as the comic, but there's nothing funny about half the neighborhood burning down. The second draft may be on the exact other end of the spectrum.

@Funnychickenface: You could keep the first character, but turn the pyromania into a constructive hobby, rather than a dangerous obsession.

That, and the RP's rating is PG-13, meaning violence can't be too much.

Don't worry about it, FCF, it happens. We try to be forgiving as possible here. :)

What if he didn't actually start fires himself but liked explosions and stuff vicariously, like in video games, books, TV shows, movies, etc.?

THIRD DRAFT OMG.

Name: K-bar Coltelliano
Species: Cat (Abyssinian)
Age: 8 years, 28 human years

Gang: Founder and (so far) sole member of the Radiant Garden Feline Pryomaniac Association (RGFPA)

-Appearance-
Well, originally, K-bar’s fur was brown. Years of slightly traumatizing but ultimately exhilarating experiences with exploding and burning objects has turned said fur dark gray. A liberal dousing with warm soapy water is required to wash the ash out, and even then, his fur is STILL stained dark-brown. He also has a chunk of his ear missing, due to a child-hood incident. He normally goes about in an olive-drab collar with a hand-grenade ornament thing. However, you can tell if he’s off on an exploding adventure if he’s wearing a vest with 4 hand grenades, 6 sticks of dynamite, fuses, blasting cord, and other assorted bomb-related gadgetry. He’ll also be sporting a mini-combat helmet.

-Personality-
K-bar’s a rather… off-kilter kitty. He’s been with various owners, notably with a Marine detachment in Iraq (somehow, he survived the experience) and a stint as Base Mascot at Andrews Air Force Base. The various military related experiences as well as explosive related incidents have permanently changed him, giving him an almost fetish like joy when witnessing or initiating explosions. He also happens to have received increased perception (but only when bombs are involved), running, and hiding skills as a side-effect and is cat more prone to violence (“The best solution to any problem is properly directed force to somebody’s face!”). Also, he is slightly anti-social but helpful when called upon. Note that he copes with the trauma by being hyperactive, but only in groups. Alone, he stares contemplatively at the wall or naps and is extremely quiet. It should also be noted that quiet K-bar means “Imaging new ways to blow up the sofa” K-bar.

-Other Notes-
The mentioned child-hood incident is when, as a kitten, he was accidentally left at the test-site for a thermobaric bomb. Following the age-old-tradition of “hide if you have no idea what’s happening”, he was able to prevent incineration when the F-15 dropped its ordinance. The flying debris took a chunk out his ear when he was blown from his hiding place by the over-pressure. This event prompted his putting up for adoption and eventual transportation to Iraq, then Afghanistan, (over the course of three years). He’s only recently been adopted by a Vietnam veteran who could use the company and sympathy and the pair lead a relaxed life grilling hamburgers and napping, with the occasional smattering of neighborhood drama. Also, said ‘Nam Vet dislikes explosions in general (“Gosh, darn-it K-bar. Could ya’ PLEASE STOP BLOWING UP THE SOFA?!” “But it’s funnnnnnnn~~!” “I don’t care, it costs too much to replace a sofa every other week!!”) since they have a habit of destroying his personal property along with them. Instead, he enables K-bar’s passion for such things in a nearby as-of-now empty lot or a nearby dry creek bed. The remains of 42 sofas are visible in said creek-bed.

Also, K-bar invites anybody who feels like it to join him at the Creek Bed when they see he’s off to blow something up.

Favorites list:

Favorite artist – Frank Sinatra
Favorite food – Nature Valley Granola Bars
Favorite activity – blowing up sofas (dur)
Motto: “There are two solutions to any problem. First, the immediate application of judicious force to somebody’s face. Second, the venting of all frustration toward said problem in the detonation of a sofa.”

I personally would wait until you got the OK, considering the nature of your character, but other than that, yeah.

My characters are in my avatar: Honey and Vanilla Cake. Vanilla in particular is not going to want to associate with this guy at all--she's timid and has had a bad past. And while Honey tries to be friendly with as many as possible, she's also very protective of Vanilla.
