Dark alleyways are your bread and butter. Semi-automatics pay the rent. Magic is matter of course. Drugs, sex and violence is often how you communicate. The cops are underpaid, overworked, and disgruntled. And the Hunt is as real as it can get.
The Hunters. The Hunted. All part of this intricate game of the underworld. Where the Hunted hide in every shadow, and the Hunters are always on the lookout for the perfect bounty.
And what happens when all of that is threatened, nobody knows...
This is a world quite unlike the one you are used to. The technology is more advanced, for sure, but more importantly magic has not died out in this reality. Magical species abound, and different races walking down the streets is as common as Happy Hour at The Rusty Spoon.
Bounty hunting also a very viable option, one many take. Only a few are good at it, and very few out of those live past the ripe old age of 30. The bounties flow like water: the government has enough money to shell out rewards, and private bounties can also be posted through public facilities.
The rules for this game (look at previous versions to see additional rules, if you're submitting a late application):
-Movement is restricted to the large city known as Acco. In the city, about $1,000 will buy you living supplies for a week. Inflation is a bitch.
-No powerplaying (1 warning and then you're out, plus the powerplaying move deleted), I reserve the right to reject your character under any circumstances and not allow you to make adjustments, if you're gone (not posting) for more than 3 days TELL ME or your character is forfeit, meaning you leave them to the mercy of my imagination. And no bitching afterwards, you had your warning.
-If there are people who are not online, you cannot make more than 3 posts a day, so as to not risk leaving people behind.
-Don't be bitchy with me. I am bitchy right back, and I'm better at it.
-You are forbidden from having fun.
check it, bitches, profiles.
if you are new to the area, you have to send your profile/audition to me for approval first. since it's past the deadline, this means EVERYONE. bitches need some adult supervision.
Starting off at
The Rusty Nail.
The City of Acco
(NOTE: I will be updating the days to keep everybody on the same page (for instance, I will do Day 1/Day 2. Time moves oddly in Acco sometimes. Please keep up with all the pages, because although I will try to distribute new information to all, I might not be able to.)
Downtown Acco - Shops, restaurants, cafe's, and the small centralized Brownietown. (Like Chinatown except with the willowy, brown-skinned, noseless/earle
ss/huge-eyed ethnic group.)
Acco Police Station - Where you collect yon bounty.
Acco City Library - Supposedly boring, but it stores a wealth of information (if you know where to look in it intimidating labyrinth) and is also the home to a surprising number of shootouts.
Acco Underground - The ghetto.
4play - The strip joint.
Pierce United - The biggest corporation in the city, and it owns half of Acco.
