I don't think I'd be able to make an irc chat. My schedule is too wacky and I got docked an hour of internet by the admin so doing one late at night for me is out of the question.
(and i work on games during the day, so i don't pay that much attention, it'd have to be transcribed if you guys can do that)

Well, I can tell you this off the bat... Destiny and Shamrock will still be together after the time skip... and those plans I had will indeed go through. I spoke with The Game about this, so don't think I'm controlling her character. We've discussed it.

One part down.

Well, I figured we'd skip enough to cover Eris's community service days, so I was kinda expecting one.

@challenger01: just out of curiosity, do you two know each other irl?

Good morning (or whatever timezone you live in),
I hereby announce my intention to join Sunset Plateau and fill one of the slots with two main characters and 1 guest. As soon as I will have the character sheet ready, I will post them here.
Thank you for your attention. Hope to be a good neighbour here, too! :D :D

Awesome Valerio! Now, I'm not the GM (I'm just the BF of the GM :P) but it might be a good idea to wait until we initiate our time skip. We'll be jumping about 4 months forward.

Thank you for the warning, Challenger! And, as promised, here are my characters!

NAME: Valiant Leone
CHARACTER TYPE: Main
SPECIES: Dog (Italian Wolfdog)
AGE: 6 (21 PYO)
NEIGHBORHOOD: Sunset Plateau

APPEARANCE:
Dorsal grey-and-tan fur, russet on the inside, with black muzzle and paws, smooth medium hair. Iron-grey eyes. Valiant wears a black collar with the Italian Coat-of-Arms (Image). Valiant’s right arm is an advanced cybernetic prosthetic Image (see below)

PERSONALITY
Valiant is not much of a confident guy, but he remains a very loyal and pack-conscious wolfdog. When you get to enter his confidence, he’ll become a good and protective friends. Due to his previous job, Valiant tends to be suspicious of strangers and/or people/pets he meets for the first time. Valiant is also very competitive and law-abiding with a low tolerance for breaking rules, yet he’s very open-minded on many so-called ‘taboos’, when it comes to pets business. Valiant is also not used to his artificial limb, and this doesn’t help him socialize. He’s gay.

OTHER NOTES
Valiant is very, very good at tracking, and hand-to-hand fighting. He has a good knowledge of the legal system. His hobby is solving jigsaw puzzles of any kind. The more complexes, the more he likes them. He owns an iPod Classic filled to limit with any kind of music, from symphonic to metal. Elio and Maria Leone are two retired public employees who just want to enjoy their last years together with their new son in a tranquil place, far from their too troubled land.

BACKGROUND
Valiant has been raised and trained as a police dog for the Direzione Investigativa Antimafia, in Sicily, Italy. There he made a career in several arrest of notorious ringleaders, but he paid dearly for his bravery. One night, a corrupted colleague of Valiant’s human partners helped in the kidnapping of Valiant, whose arm was then cut off. The dog was left in the fields to day, alone, as an example for the rest of the policemen, but Valiant managed to stop the hemorrhage and reached, barely alive, his base. There, he was given a brand-new prosthetic arm, courtesy of the Pentagon for helping once rescuing two of their men from a kidnap.
After being honorably discharged, Valiant took off to US with his new adoptive family.

NAME – Rikki Leone
CHARACTER TYPE – Main
SPECIES – Ferret, female
AGE – 4 (16 PYO)
NEIGHBORHOOD – Sunset Plateau

APPEARANCE:
Rikki’s fur is entirely black, save for a white bandit mask. Blue eyes. Rikki’s collar is white with an Italian Monarchic Flag as tag.

PERSONALITY:
Rikki is a good listener, thanks to her former job (see below). She’s also a very playful and friendly mustelid, the perfect counterpart for Valiant, whom she encourages a lot to open up. She’s Valiant’s best friends and has a lot of suggestions to give him. She doesn’t like to stay alone.

OTHER NOTES:
Rikki can stay quiet and immobile for hours in a single spot, she can easily pick many kind of locks. She can hack computers, and has a photographic memory. She loves videogames, she can play any kind of them and never get bored. She collects shiny things.

BACKGROUND:
Together with Valiant, Rikki worked as scout for her team, infiltrating where no pet could and gather information and useful objects. In truth, many of her team’s successes were due to her work. When Valiant was almost killed and had to retire, Rikki followed him without hesitation.

NAME – Bora
CHARACTER TYPE – Guest, Feral
SPECIES – Bird (Red-Tailed Hawk), female
AGE – 3 (12 PYO)
NEIGHBORHOOD – Sunset Plateau

APPEARANCE: Grey belly plumage, brown with black spots on the back and a red tail. 133 cm wingspan, 65 cm long, golden eyes.

PERSONALITY
Bora is a ferocious predator, but most of all she hates humans for killing her mate and destroying her nest, and will exact her revenge whenever she can on their pets. Bora has no faith in social relationships, she just lives on waiting to harm the intruders of her territory, the forest near Sunset Plateau’s park.

OTHER NOTES
Bora is exceptionally skilled as bird of prey, on day and night, and very patient. She likes to inflict pain to her targets. Bora is the name of a cold, powerful Italian wind.

BACKGROUND
Bora used to be wary of humans and their pets, but would generally leave them alone. Once, a group of pets happened into their nest, in the abandoned building in the forest, while she was away to hunt. When she came back, she found the disaster and her life went to pieces. Since then, she had vigorously chased away the intruders in the most painful ways. She has given the place the sinister fame of a ‘Haunted House’, since no one saw her despite many attempts of animal control and police to catch the culprit.

I don't see any problems Valerio and I don't have a problem with the arm as I said over skype. I approve of the character you can introduce him after the skip plus I know you have 2 others you want to show us as well.

Edit: I like the second one as well I don't see anything wrong with it can't wait for the third Edit 2: Yay our first antagonist this should be fun I also approve of this one Val

Welcome to Sunset Plateau Valerio!

Um, I just thought of something. I was thinking of changing Khun's age to 5 and a half. Doing a time skip to the next year would make him 7. And I didn't intend for him to be that old. Unless, it's not really that old. That would make him 24 in dog years.

That's a little much don't you think? I mean, I understand the concept, but the main thing about pet friendly is that no one ever dies. They just leave permanently.

I'm pretty sure that the time skip is gonna happen at the end of the current day. Which will be whenever we decide that that's the case. I'd say it's about mid afternoon though now right?

1) This thread was easier to catch up. There is another, shorter PF, but it's so FILLED with rules that I'd go crazy after one post
2) ICEKITSUNE IS THE GM, YAY
3) I know many of you already and I really like this bunch o' critters
4) I can help work on this setting, which still has few features

And now, let's have fun! :D

Re: PF: Sunset Plateau OOC

Sorry for the double post, but this proposal deserved one of its own...

I saw we have many 'dead' characters, most of them very interesting and others just waiting to be developed after way too short appearances. So, here's my idea, folks: either me, Buck, Ceet, or IceKitsune, asks their owners, on behalf of the whole group, to use these characters for very limited appearances, say 2 days tops a week in SH, as special guests, while waiting for their owners to return.
These characters would be available to every active player, with the commitment to use them in full respect of the character's sheet. This would allow us to keep them appearing from time to time, rather than letting them fall into oblivion :cry:
To use one of these characters, the active player will have to notify here in OOC first so to avoid overlapping.

If there are characters whose owners are not returning at all, then I suggest said characters be available by default, always with the same 2-days appearances rule.

I hope you'll all find this feasable.
Thank you for your attention! :mrgreen:

I suppose you can try, if you really want to use those characters. I don't find this necessary, but it could be good when done right.

However, half of the owners probably aren't even around anymore. So you might have a hard time finding some of them to give you permission. I also recommend against cross-overs, since I think it might get confusing if they crossed their neighbors.

But no matter what, you will need to ask Buck about this first.

Hello folks!

I would like to join Sunset Plateau with my character, Darien! That is, if you'll have me... ;)
In the main OOC thread I wrote:I finally decided that I want to try roleplaying, so I created my first character! I would like to join Sunset Plateau with him.

Name:
Darien Shephard

Character type:
Main

Species:
Dog, Belgian shepherd (Malinois)

Age:
5 and a half (~19)

Neighborhood:
Sunset Plateau

Appearance:
Darien looks fairly typical for his breed. His fur is a warm shade of brown, except on his belly where it's a lighter color, and he has the markings of a malinois: his muzzle and his ears are completely black, while his upper back and his tailtip are colored with a touch of silvery fur. He wears a simple black collar and a polished steel tag shaped like a small pen. He usually wears his glasses, they have a thin, silver colored frame and small rectangular lenses that have rounded edges. And if you look close enough, you might spot a small patch of missing fur on his left upper leg, the size of quarter.

Personality:
As a puppy, Darien wanted to follow in his fathers pawsteps, and become a firedog. Sadly, an injury left him with a weak leg and so he was forced to occupy himself with the mental variety of activities. He soon discovered he had an affinity for writing, specifically for journalism, and so he proclaimed himself a newsdog! Through the years and his hobby, since he can't really call it a job after all, he developed an innate curiosity and a laid back, outgoing personality to help him sniff out all things interesting. He enjoys playing board games or cards, and he's also a big movie fan. He likes to know and befriend many pets, so he can stay in the loop and hear some good stories. When it comes to romance though, his confidence vanishes in an instant. He feels painfully single, but he has no experience beyond being friends with someone. He finds it hard to venture out (of the closet...) into this unknown, dangerous, yet exciting territory.

Other notes:
Darien writes an online blog called 'Pet Fancy!', and he has plans regarding a weekly home-printed edition too. If he can find pets to read it first, of course. He regularly pulls all-nighters, often spending many hours reading or writing, sometimes until the brink of dawn. Whenever anyone asks about this, Darien claims he suffers from mild insomnia... His time writing has also caused his vision to get worse, after looking at monitors and notepads for a long time, especially at night when the lights are dim in his room, his eyesight isn't perfect anymore. He can manage without his glasses, but his vision is not completely sharp and he will have trouble without them when it's dark.
Darien tries to exercise as much as his leg allows, he doesn't want to put on weight since he can't burn calories by running around and playing like a regular dog.
Darien was adopted by his dad as a puppy. James Shephard is a firefighter, he worked at the same precinct as Darien's father. He adopted a shepherd specifically for the purpose of the pun in his name. Yes, he has a weird sense of humor. They moved to Sunset Plateau after James was transferred to the local fire station.

SPECIAL:
Strength: 4 "I can lift this big stack of papers with my arms, but there's a limit 'cause my legs aren't so good."
Perception: 9 "I can sniff out all the details!" (-3 penalty for his eyesight, when he isn't wearing his glasses)
Endurance: 3 "This short jog across the street is fine, but now my leg is aching!"
Charisma: 8 "Hello, hi! It's good to see you again, how have you been? I'm with the press!"
Intelligence: 10 "I'm a well read dog!"
Agility: 2 "Jump around? With my leg? Are you kidding me?!?"
Luck: 6 "Look, a four leaf clover! The second one this week! But I never find any money... oh well!"

So... opinions? Is he okay? I remembered one of the Bigglesworth cats wearing glasses once, so I thought that would be okay. Also the penalty to perception when he's not wearing them.

COLOR - BF4000
For the time being one character will be more than enough for me I think, at least until I get the hang of things, if that's okay.

That stuff would kill him, so it's a no-no. You could just state he tends to suffer from insomnia, thus being able to work overnight.

To think that I re-birthed life into this RP makes me so happy that others are joining :D Also, it's kinda nice that some of the characters are getting shipped like Destiny and Shamrock. It's kind of a very loving neighborhood wouldn't you say? ;) Also, Valerio, you have to deal with Shamrock for cutest male of Sunset Plateau :P

5 and a half (~19)

Neighborhood:
Sunset Plateau

Appearance:
Darien looks fairly typical for his breed. His fur is a warm shade of brown, except on his belly where it's a lighter color, and he has the markings of a malinois: his muzzle and his ears are completely black, while his upper back and his tailtip are colored with a touch of silvery fur. He wears a simple black collar and a polished steel tag shaped like a small pen. He usually wears his glasses, they have a thin, silver colored frame and small rectangular lenses that have rounded edges. And if you look close enough, you might spot a small patch of missing fur on his left upper leg, the size of quarter.

Personality:
As a puppy, Darien wanted to follow in his fathers pawsteps, and become a firedog. Sadly, an injury left him with a weak leg and so he was forced to occupy himself with the mental variety of activities. He soon discovered he had an affinity for writing, specifically for journalism, and so he proclaimed himself a newsdog! Through the years and his hobby, since he can't really call it a job after all, he developed an innate curiosity and a laid back, outgoing personality to help him sniff out all things interesting. He enjoys playing board games or cards, and he's also a big movie fan. He likes to know and befriend many pets, so he can stay in the loop and hear some good stories. When it comes to romance though, his confidence vanishes in an instant. He feels painfully single, but he has no experience beyond being friends with someone. He finds it hard to venture out (of the closet...) into this unknown, dangerous, yet exciting territory.

Other notes:
Darien writes an online blog called 'Pet Fancy!', and he has plans regarding a weekly home-printed edition too. If he can find pets to read it first, of course. He regularly pulls all-nighters, often spending many hours reading or writing, sometimes until the brink of dawn. Whenever anyone asks about this, Darien claims he suffers from mild insomnia... His time writing has also caused his vision to get worse, after looking at monitors and notepads for a long time, especially at night when the lights are dim in his room, his eyesight isn't perfect anymore. He can manage without his glasses, but his vision is not completely sharp and he will have trouble without them when it's dark.
Darien tries to exercise as much as his leg allows, he doesn't want to put on weight since he can't burn calories by running around and playing like a regular dog.
Darien was adopted by his dad as a puppy. James Shephard is a firefighter, he worked at the same precinct as Darien's father. He adopted a shepherd specifically for the purpose of the pun in his name. Yes, he has a weird sense of humor. They moved to Sunset Plateau after James was transferred to the local fire station.

SPECIAL:
Strength: 4 "I can lift this big stack of papers with my arms, but there's a limit 'cause my legs aren't so good."
Perception: 9 "I can sniff out all the details!" (-3 penalty for his eyesight, when he isn't wearing his glasses)
Endurance: 3 "This short jog across the street is fine, but now my leg is aching!"
Charisma: 8 "Hello, hi! It's good to see you again, how have you been? I'm with the press!"
Intelligence: 10 "I'm a well read dog!"
Agility: 2 "Jump around? With my leg? Are you kidding me?!?"
Luck: 6 "Look, a four leaf clover! The second one this week! But I never find any money... oh well!"

So... opinions? Is he okay? I remembered one of the Bigglesworth cats wearing glasses once, so I thought that would be okay. Also the penalty to perception when he's not wearing them.

Oh, and I would need a little help with finding a color, please?
For the time being one character will be more than enough for me I think, at least until I get the hang of things, if that's okay.
