This is just a little place to get to know the OCs of the game. To submit info about your characters, just PM me their name, age, occupation and a little bit about them! ![]() --------------------------------------------------------------- ARTHUR BANDT -- Age: 27 Occupation: singer, works at Sinclair Spirits on the side Brief Bio: Arthur was always told by his parents that he had a wonderful singing voice and he never really believed them. His mother always said his tunes could stop wars, which was a notion he would just laugh at. When his family decided to bring him down to Rapture, Arthur instantly found himself infatuated with Fort Frolic. Every corner of it; from the handles of the slot machines in Pharaoh's Fortune to the massive expanse of the stage in Fleet Hall down to the filthy corners of Eve's Garden. He spent all the time he possibly could there. In the recent months, Arthur seems like a nice enough fellow, but he sometimes lapses off into a dreamlike trance when he begins recalling what he found in Rapture, which is the same as what he ultimately lost -- a woman, lower class and poor. He never believed in class, never cared about the money -- he loved her and that was all that mattered. But the society in Rapture cared. And she vanished three days after she moved into his apartment. Arthur doesn't know where she is, or whether she's alive or not but when he falls into one of his absent states, she's most likely the image that's plastered itself in his mind. EDWARD WEST -- Age: Occupation: Brief Bio: EVELYN BAKER -- Age: Occupation: Brief Bio: GIL O'CULLEN -- Age: 25 Occupation: Fisherman/Smuggler Brief Bio: Gil came to Rapture originally with his father and younger brother. Originally his father had been a successful business men topside investing in the fishing market. Of course he had to suffer a bit of a demotion seeing as how Rapture already had a thriving fishing market. Never the less he worked humbly as a fisherman at Fontaine Fisheries. In order to support the family Gil also had to get a job alongside his father. A few months after arrival Gil's brother became very sick and in order to get the medical treatment he needed his father had to borrow quite a bit of money from his boss Frank Fontaine. In order to pay off his debts he would have to do any job he was given, even if it meant getting his hands dirty. He was eventually driven to the breaking point and in order to cleanse himself of the immense guilt and shame he carried he ultimately hung himself thus passing the debt along to his son Gil. While still gutting fish Gil works as an errand boy for Fontaine moreso than anything else. Often he plays the messenger carrying the orders and wishes of Fontaine along to the rest of the smugglers in the fisheries when the boss is unable to do so himself. In rare occasions he has been asked to dispose of those who go against his will. In order to deal with the blood he has on his hands Gil reminds himself that everything he does he does for the sake of his brother. He doesn't believe himself to be a bad guy, only a simple man in a bad situation. JASE SOLOMAN -- Age: Occupation: Brief Bio: LILLIAN PIKE -- Age: 24 Occupation: dancer at Eve's Garden Brief Bio: Lillian came down to Rapture after an argument with her family. Jake Cleary, her boyfriend of two years, was invited to the city and much to her parent's protests of leaving, she went with him. Once they arrived, everything was perfect. She was cooking and cleaning at their lovely apartment while Jake was out working and living his scientific dream -- along with Andrew Ryan's citywide dream. Months passed though and he became obsessed with his work, coming home late and not bothering to tell her anything about what was going on. Jake was abusive and he drank too much when things frustrated him. Lillian had no idea what was so wrong with his work that he would lash out this way. He broke her nose -- something she got fixed right up by Dr. Steinman before using the money she had saved up herself to hire someone to kill Jake Cleary. No one really noticed. At least she didn't think they did. Of course, this meant she had to actually go out and make a living for herself. And the easiest place to do that was at Eve's Garden. Lillian never minded that she wasn't as popular as Jasmine Jolene. In fact, none of the girls there ever minded -- it just meant they got less stalkers and less lewd comments. ROSE NYGHT -- Age: 25 Occupation: stripper/artist Brief Bio: Rose lived with her father, notorious mobster Graeme Nyght, and her mother, Varka Nyght, in Norway. Her father taught her at a very young age how to shoot a gun, and with practice she became an excellent marksman. She also studied music and is exceptionally good at piano as well as a little bit of the violin. Her childhood was, for the most part, a very happy one. When she was around the age of seven both her mother and father died in a house fire. She was taken in by a good friend of her father's, Russian mobster, Vladmir Horewhich. She grew up with him but she never really got over the death of her mother and father. Around eighteen years later Vladmir was able to get Rose into Rapture where he hoped she could start a new life without having to get trapped in the mobster underworld. She was able to settle down in Rapture but had to take up a job stripping instead of becoming a famous artist like she had hoped. She is currently taking up residence in Mercury Suits on the Fourth Floor. STEVE BARKER -- Age: 30 Occupation: theater owner Brief Bio: The thirty year old owner of Rapture's excellent theatre, Steve Barker is a fun loving, sarcastic entrepreneur. He is a tall, well built man, and can be intimidating when necessary. The young man takes his job very seriously, and on the surface is a classy, respectable citizen. He has a much darker private life, however. A frequent patron of Sir Prize and Rapture's other less-than-respectable establishments, he is slowing gambling and drinking himself to death. SYLVESTER "SHADOW" JOHNSON -- Age: 34 Occupation: Security Expert Brief Bio: Sylvester had always been the runt of the litter. Growing up in Brooklyn after being born to an impoverished family the fact that he had always been the weakest child had been the cause of years of misery and disappointment, unable to join in with the muggings and robberies. His mind however spun, reeled, thinking thoughts beyond those of most people. And when he arrived in Rapture he knew he had found his home. Very quickly he was hired into the Rapture security services after designing and creating the very first security bot. Finally his life had purpose. To work for the good of everyone rather than being asked to steal loaves of bread. He quickly went on to design Rapture's security network and very soon became intrigued with genetics and how to use the unique structure of DNA to everyone's advantage and soon created the very first camera capable of finding out a person's DNA using a variety of sensors in the corridors and halls of Rapture to aid it. Soon he made the genetic keys and he realised: Despite what his inventions could have been used for they were being used for far darker purposes. He quickly became noted by his systems of evil deeds being performed by Andrew Ryan using his systems. Ryan was using the bots to chase people as a fox hunts a rabbit. He set about to stop it and soon became chased. But he had made it so the systems would not attack him. But now he must avoid the guards and security but also Fontaine, who views Sylvester as a threat, someone who would easily be able to get rid of him. Sylvester must now hide whenever possible, but every day feels like a traitor. He must find a way to expose the truth. He must fight to stop the dark future he now sees. |
