Birthday: 10/31/06

Personal Information

Country of Origin: United States of America
Spoken Languages: English, French, Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Arabic, Hindu, and Japanese.

Personality: Dr. Marshal is what most would call 'a smug bastard'. He is highly intelligent, and most unfortunately for others, he is keenly aware of it. With an almost photographic memory, he often tends to annoy others with remembering petty slights, mistakes, and missteps far, far longer than any reasonable man should. And doubly sinfully, he has the gall to not even take those things too seriously, preferring instead to make them the subject of jokes, japes, and biting quips. Indeed, he rarely takes anything all that seriously, always quick with a witty word. He can actually come across as charming, in adequate levels of exposure. That said, he does have his good points. He is a fundamentally good-natured individual, and while his memory for things to quip about is long, he is quick to forgive the same slights that he jokes about. If one decides to rely on him, he will prove a surprisingly dependable individual.

Background Information: The one thing above all else to understand about Dr. Marshal, is that he has a brilliant mind often used for decidedly stupid things. In his youth, he would apply his prodigious intellect to the task of pranking his classmates, and breezing through his academics while he worked on his real passion: forming ridiculously complex theories about videogames. He would just as soon create an expansive narrative about the hidden lore of an item, as rip his own theory to shreds with a throw-away line in some one-off NPC's dialogue as evidence. His propensity for analysis would extend, as he entered college, to the nature of reality itself, as he threw himself into the study of Physics with a gusto. And on his off-time, of course, he continued his old passions, though he would branch out to the hallowed arts of speedrunning. Where picking apart the lore was no longer enough, he found pleasure in turning a game engine inside-out with backward long jumps and glitchy hitboxes. But games came and went, and Dr. Marshal got... too good. The games were too simple to unravel, both narratively and mechanically. His work was awry in the opposite, running up against a series of unsolvable blocks that confounded the mathematicians and stymied all progress. It was a time of dread boredom and tedium.

And then, something new struck. ICE.

Where could he go with this, he wondered?

If you could design your own RPG class, what would it be:
A melee-focused warrior who uses magic to enhance his blows and body, mixing together sorcery and martial technique to form a whole greater than either one alone. However, the martial techniques themselves are the primary focus. No throwing fireballs or somesuch. A heavily skill-based class that requires precise timing of their martial techniques in order to deflect blows or land hits, rather than simply weathering blows through constitution alone. One does not become a Soulsbourne veteran without learning the necessity of timing!

What is your goal when playing an RPG game:
I want to understand the world. Not just in terms of its lore or mechanics, but also, to understand its many denizens. To understand the metaphysical underpinnings under which the game's world is structured. How its story all fits together, and how it all ticks towards its conclusion. I am as they say, 'a deep lore buff'. Since there's sadly nothing left to find in Elden Ring 3, this seems like a quite wonderful game for me to investigate. And besides, I have plenty of vacation days to use on it.

Personal Identification
Name: Marie Yang Gui-Lin
Birthday: 13 May 1996 (age 35 in 2031)
Gender: Trans woman

Photo for ID:
Marie is a somewhat plump, homely-looking woman, roughly 170cm tall with dark brown hair that currently reaches past her shoulders and is always either kept loose or tied into a bun. Has a tendency to squint, as while she is near-sighted, she has recently had a habit of not wearing her glasses. Tends to dress modestly (some would say slovenly) in the present time, favoring trackpants, big T-shirts, and other similar garments.

Personal Information
Country of Origin: United States
Spoken Languages: English, Mandarin, a smattering of German and Russian

Personality:
While not exactly distant or cold, Marie has a tendency to be reserved and selective in her words to others. In her current living circumstances, she has become somewhat lonely, and takes the opportunity to assist anyone in need and get to know them better. Has a liking for quirky art and music and something of a protective attitude towards people who are considerably younger than her.

Background Information:
After 6 years of marriage, the woman now known as Marie Yang was left all alone in an apartment that hadn't quite been paid off yet. Having parted with her husband and their adopted 5 year old as "amicably" as humanly possible, Marie threw herself back into her old passions (as much as she could afford). That included video games, of course. Even as she tried to rediscover herself, her life wasn't exactly smooth sailing. They hadn't paid off their apartment just yet, and just when she was considering downsizing to a flat, a friend of hers dropped a bomb: they'd signed Marie up for the closed beta of ICE. Housing would be provided, and pay too? It almost seemed too good to be true, and she couldn't say no. Packing her bags, Marie departed for her life's next adventure.

If you could design your own RPG class, what would it be:
You know, I've been playing a fair bit of Apex Predators and Coalition of Champions lately. I've never been one to take fights head on, but with a little foresight and help from a team, sometimes I can pull out a win. I'm not some kind of tryhard strategist either, I just know my strengths and weaknesses. So the kind of class I'd design to play...well, remember the Emerald Wizard from Phoenix Fantasy Advanced Tactics? All kinds of buffs and debuffs, and status effects too. They don't strike the winning blow on their own, nor are they full supports, but they make sure both of those roles can do their jobs. That's the kind of thing I like to do.


What is your goal when playing an RPG game:
Like I said, one of the things that I find the most satisfying is being part of a team and winning because our plans come together. It always hurts when a team ends up at each other's throats...I don't mind striking out on my own sometimes, but winning is always better when you're part of a team.

Forename: Ange
Middle Name: May
Surname: Sheppard

Birthday: 21/05/10
Gender: Female

Photo for ID:
c3cf913d72264bf4992d531f924effbe.jpg credit: @matchach
A petite young woman with close to no muscle tone. While her features do lend themselves to looking uncannily animated or doll-like, one can easily spot the disparity between her airbrushed photos and reality. She looks far more dishevelled and human, with untamed hair, dark eyes, blemishes, and a general air of listlessness. In public, she prefers to sport frilled dresses and heels. However, most of her time is spent in oversized and stained tees.

Personal Information

Country of Origin: The United Kingdom
Spoken Languages: English, a little French

Personality: While her working persona is cloyingly sweet, high energy and optimistic, the day-to-day Ange is anything but. Ange suffers from an intense fear of people, and this manifests in an incredibly aloof and withdrawn demeanour. Though her talent for stringing together foul-mouthed (redeemed only somewhat by their creativity) insults over in-game mic is not to be understated, she is otherwise near-mute, isolated, and drowsy. There are, somewhere deep inside, remnants of a personality, but they're inclined to only appear after adequate provoking or coaxing. This contradiction of personality has proven to be quite troublesome on the very rare occasions she is recognized out in public. It is one thing to throw away your dignity and pride behind the protection of an LED screen, but to perform this pantomime of cuteness in person is something else entirely. She hates it.

Background Information: Ange has not always lived in such an unusual manner. During her school years, she was an exceedingly average student in every manner. She attended clubs, had a close-knit friend group, and passed each grade rather comfortably. It was only after graduation that the sudden weight of adulthood became paralyzing, and she developed these unfortunate complexes. Finding herself unable to leave the house most days, she turned to video games as a means of escape. She'd spend all waking hours rattling through game after game and grinding levels, pausing only to maintain the minimum required to sustain her body. Her bedroom reflects this, littered with clothes, figurines and empty cola bottles. To start a career that would disturb this addiction lifestyle was ardently out of the question.

However, through sewing, modelling and photographing her cosplays, Ange has amassed a sizable following from the comfort of her apartment. She posts these works under the undignified alias @angelic_QT. Through these devoted fans, she can pay for all of her utilities and bills, be it from selling prints, sponsorships or Paymeon tiers. The constant attention and doting she receives have grown into an addiction in its own right, for it's her only means of fueling her self-esteem, and her only connection to the outside world. One can imagine how this has degraded her interpersonal skills. Today, she is only forced from the shackles of her apartment for photoshoots or late-night snack runs at her local convenience store, where she is on a first-name basis with all employees.

For her to apply for ICE was simply inevitable. There is no more favourable fate for Ange than being hooked up to an all-consuming video game. She applied before reading the terms and conditions.

If you could design your own RPG class, what would it be: Anything but a knight, they're needlessly dull. Why cover your character creation with such a plain helmet, it's sad. Maybe a mage or a priest or a summoner. You know, the classes with strange little weapons and hats and spells and pets, experimental playstyles, pretty.

What is your goal when playing an RPG game: What is there other than perfecting your build and K/D/A ratio? That is the goal, isn't it? Maybe I'm being naive. I suppose some games have pretty adorable cosmetics, too. In which case, I will collect them all. The kills and assists this does to my credit card are unavoidable…

Gender: Male

Photo for ID:
1669769238596.png

* * * * *
Personal Information

Country of Origin: United States of America
Spoken Languages: Korean, English

Personality: Jeong-ho is a kind and gentle soul, preferring to follow rather than lead. He's quiet when he's not in his comfort zone, but that by no means makes him uncomfortable. He likes a nice mix of going out and doing things as well as just sitting home and lazing about, or playing games. He's soft spoken, but can be rather intense and take control of a situation if need be. While he might seem to be that weird, quiet kid who sits in the back of the classroom (because he was), once he warms up to you, he's just a ray of sunshine. When he's gaming however... Jay is aggressive, competitive, but never outright toxic or mean. He is loud, commanding, and often explosive in his reactions. He's just really competitive.

Background Information: Jang Jeong-ho, was born a half German, half Korean bastard to a wealthy business conglomerate. He grew up the sole child of his parents, an only child. His father was away on business trips most of the time, and his mother was often busy with her day job. She was barista at a local coffee shop, and an aspiring author. There, Jay would learn all he could about coffee and find a love fantasy and worldbuilding, listening to the ideas of his mother for her books. for Although they were unmarried after Jay's birth, it was on his 6th birthday, that as a present, his mother and father would marry.

Jeong-ho's life growing up was not exactly easy, but it wasn't hard either. His father was absent for most of his life, but he made that up by spending as much time with his family as possible. He didn't exactly understand why his dad was always gone, but he knew it was important, or at least that's what his parents told him. His mother kept him home schooled until middle school, where at that point, he transferred into one during the middle of the year. Jay didn't have too many friends, but he found a group that he felt he belonged with. He joined the Newspaper Committee as a photographer, and from there until graduation, Jay had a place. It was with this group of friend that Jay discovered a love for video games, RPGs, and MMOs. He became exceptionally good at them, climbing ranks in competitive ladders. He would soon be scouted and signed by a team in one such game, and sign a contract to play for them professionally once he graduated high school.

After middle school and high school, Jay dove deeper into the eSports athlete world. He would travel the world more, competing in all sorts of tournaments, and if not win, at least get second. Taking a break from the competitive scene, Jay would go off to university. It was there when his problems arose.

Jay was diagnosed with insomnia, and had much trouble sleeping. He would often go alone at night for walks, lost in his own world. On one of these walks, Jay would stumble upon a car accident, getting hit by a car, and paralyzing him from the waist down. He was immediately flown back home, and hospitalized. From there, Jay's insomnia would persist. Restless nights of tossing and turning in bed turned into restless nights of endless gaming. He began to climb ranked ladders in other games, and his skills improved tremendously. When ICE had launched applications for beta testing, Jay submitted an application faster than he signed the contract for his pro gaming team.

What is your goal when playing an RPG game: Depending on the game it could be experiencing the story, world, and characters, improving my personal play and skill, climbing the ranked ladder, or just the endgame of all games, fashion.

Middle Name: Daniel
Surname: Knowles

Birthday: November 29, 2011
Gender: Male

Photo for ID:
1669766191345.png

Personal Information
Country of Origin: USA

Spoken Languages: English. Knows exactly as much Japanese and Spanish as someone who watches some subbed anime and took Spanish in high school (not much).

Personality: With an excellent memory for things that interest him, a decidedly non-allistic mindset, and an opinion on most subjects it's often hard to predict what Isaac will say or do unless you know him well. He's got a tendency to latch onto whatever he pays attention to like a dog with a bone and then drop them the moment he gets bored.

Get in his way and he'll plow through you, befriend him and there's nobody more loyal, insult him and he'll burn you to the ground with a smile. Give him snacks.

Background Information: Some students do better in private high schools. Isaac was one of them. It was less structured, but that let him learn better. An avid reader with a love for fantasy, Isaac preferred video game RPGs to real life ones due to the fact that a lot of IRL roleplayers were assholes and you could take your own time on a computer. Plus you could check the internet for cheats, walkthroughs, builds, and all the other stuff that made them more fun than blindly trying things. He's not lazy, it just that Isaac would rather spend time on the things he enjoys and bypass the rest.

In high school Isaac ended up on the fringes of social activity. He was fun and his few friends knew him, but he had a reputation for weirdness and at least a few misfortunes that befell those who crossed him could be traced back to his skills at digging up dirt. The last student to try bullying Isaac ended up expelled for possession after a teacher was anonymously alerted to the contents of his backpack and a teacher who called him "defective" was fired after parents were alerted to his postings on social media. Isaac denied being involved, but the way he grinned about it caused doubt. It's not cheating if the game's not fair after all.

Having graduated high school with...average-ish grades (homework and quizzes aren't exactly the best way to actually measure comprehension of the subject matter) Isaac decided to take a gap year to decide what he wanted to do with his life. And when the opportunity came to get involved with Realm Industries he took it.

Forename: Lex
Middle Name: Christopher
Surname: Maynard

Birthday: 8/23/10
Gender: Male

Photo for ID:

Personal Information

Country of Origin:
United States
Spoken Languages: English

Personality: Lex is fairly adaptable in new situations, often taking them at face-value. He's straightforward in the way he responds to things. He views life as one big adventure and he isn't afraid to step in the line of fire. Labeled as irrational and brash, he follows his feelings above all else. He never means to hurt anyone, and if he does, he's sure to issue a quick apology once things get sorted. He hardly likes being alone, and he will exhaust almost every resource to prevent the feeling.

Background Information: Born and raised in Hartford, Connecticut, Lex always had a group of close-knit friends he could have fun with. He tended to nick a few things from local stores now and again, and occasionally got caught once or twice. In addition, he frequently went with his buddies to see what they could find in the dumpsters. Their favorite spot to check was Splashin' Spheres, a donut shop that contained a large number of deformed donuts that the employees were obligated to throw away at the end of the day. Ultimately, Lex was just looking for a fun time, and if that meant he stole from large corporations, then that just added to his enthusiasm.

When high school came to a close, he found himself without a plan, while everyone else seemed to be moving on with their futures, he was lost. Lex was always a creative soul, a part of the drumline, and an aspiring artist. It didn't take him long to start trying to get a portfolio ready in order to apply to Black Diamond Ink, a tattoo shop in New Jersey. There he resided in a dingy apartment, and struggled with financial hardships, barely keeping himself afloat.

He found the beta-testing applications when he was scrolling through the internet. He knows virtually nothing of RPG games, but the compensation seemed like a hell of an upgrade compared to what he currently was living in. He couldn't help but submit an entry.

  • First Name: Arlo
    Surname: Tachikawa

    Birthday: January 16, 2007 (25 y/o)
    Gender: Male

    Physique: A lanky half-Japanese man who stands at 5'10, Arlo possesses all the gravitas of a flimsy man-child, possessing a certain look with his scruffy chin and his beady eyes that marks him out as someone wholly unreliable. It's not a matter of looking suspicious of course, nor a matter of some sort of seedy, criminal-esque aura. In the right light, he'd even look to be quite a handsome fellow! But it's perhaps owing to his good looks, to the effortless way in which he lounges just about anywhere, and one gets a sense indeed.

    A sense that this fellow needs to be taken care of.

Personal Identification

Forename: Desmond
Middle Name: Will
Surname: Adler

Birthday: 25 August 1991 [age 40 in 2031]
Gender: Male

Photo for ID:
Desmond is a raddled man with a wiry build, who could easily pass as someone's grandpa or at least their dad if he tried. Standing roughly at 185cm/6' and weighing 77 kg/ 169.76 lb. He sports short light blonde hair mostly slicked back but with a slight bang upfront, and his signature spruce moustache. His eyes were sky blue in colour. He dresses as one could call it old fashioned or like a gentleman should. The glasses are there more for style. Always seen with his trusty cane, mostly used as a walking stick or a weapon if some ill-minded people find some fault with him.


Personal Information

Country of Origin:
Ireland
Spoken Languages: Irish, English, Latin,

Personality:
Desmond is a hardworking, kind-hearted old soul, who plans their entire day schedule a day before and truly wants to follow it to a T, but knows that sometimes other things are more important and often breaks his plans to help others. Although he might appear to be a lover of old things, he much rather prefers new things, especially things made by people for the people such as indie games. The biggest flaw of his personality is how dense he can sometimes be. Not understanding obvious jokes or sarcasm, up to not knowing when someone is flirting with him is up there with how dense he is. Thankfully he has some experience now gained with age so he isn’t that dense all the time but sometimes. And his biggest virtue is his willingness to lend someone his ear and shoulder, the ear to listen to their worries and his shoulder so they can cry upon it, and after all that, if he can help said person fix their worries he gladly does so.

Background Information:
Desmond's life wasn’t exactly easy or nice in his early years being a thin and tall kid he was often bullied for he was like a stickman. The one of few reasons why the bullying stopped early was he took boxing lessons from his own father who was a former featherweight boxing champion. Years passed he still trained, and was learning to become a psychiatrist, his goal in becoming one wasn’t out of greed but rather out of service. He’s seen some shit happen to people, and watched them roll down the drain of life cause their psyche gave up on them, and he doesn't want to see another one go down that way.

During his studies and even after ending them he could be seen helping people more times for free or a symbolic amount rather than for proper pay. That way only his work at the police as a counsellor was paying his bills and the gifts from those he helped before also helped. One young man even gifted him an old PC by today's standards but it run, had access to the internet and had lots of games pre-installed on it. What more could a man wish for in his free time than something to indulge himself in?

So in between his training, helping people and work he could be seen either playing some kind of game with a rich story or reading one of those ‘Fanfics’ on the internet. RPGs were the thing for him, he played them over and over again trying to learn all of the story hidden within them, he would even sometimes write it down in one of his notebooks.

During one of the many free therapy sessions, he held he heard from one of the younger people there about a supposed amazing RPG game that will come out soon and that they are looking for beta testers for it. He didn’t understand what was so amazing in this game that the young man would be talking about it during the therapy but it seemed interesting enough. So after the session, he asked the young man to help him with signing up to be a part of the tests.

That is a hard question, but from experience, I can tell that a class which envisions the usage of aoe skill to damage or debuff the enemies, while finishing them off with melee skills with low cooldown. Such a class of course would require proper balancing to make it viable but not OP.

What is your goal when playing an RPG game:
Oh, I don't have a singular goal in any RPG. For I have two goals, the first one is relatively simple to learn all of its histories, or lore you could say, and to be able to retell to newer players, who might miss out on it. The other kinda ties into the first one, but its to write my own, no maybe our own legend into the game.

Personal Information

Country of Origin:
Russian
Spoken Languages: Russian, English

Personality:
Instinct—the voice in the back of every mind that bleeds into every action. A subtle pull, that tells you what to do and how to act. It's a thing we all have, but it can be trained or tamed. It is the one thing that sets us apart from animals; our ability to think for ourselves. But, to Vanya, it was the only song his mind spun. His brain was like an old-fashioned gramophone needle picking up strange radio signals and playing them over and over again on the wax cylinder of his consciousness. His moods swing wildly between extremes of grandiose pride and deep despair, a raging storm of emotions that is impossible to predict or contain. One moment he believes himself as great a man as anybody who ever lived, the next he despairs at the fate of his soul, convinced that the last vestige of his sanity has been lost forever and that he will wander forever in madness. He seems not to know when he is happy or sad, nor does it matter to him. What matters is that he must believe himself extraordinary, and so his thoughts are always full of comparisons with other men. And even when he looks upon another, it is almost invariably through the prism of self-admiration.

He is obsessed with the desire to be recognized, to receive the acclaim of others. He is driven to seek out all the people and things that might give him that recognition, whatever their nature. To this end he will sacrifice anything: friends, family, money, dignity... indeed, any value he once held dear. The only thing that seems to hold any interest for him now is the image of his own greatness. The world is but a passing phase of his life, and its small wonders are merely incidental distractions.

His mind is a maelstrom of delusions and envy, his every thought and action driven by a need to be seen, feared, and worshipped. He is a man of grandiose gestures, a man who would stop at nothing to ensure that his presence was felt, even if it meant destruction, pain, and death. If he sees something beautiful, he tears it down. When he hears music, it is always dissonant and discordant. He is always seeking the new. And yet, despite all his efforts, the new remains elusive. It exists only for him in dreams and fancies, and never in reality. In the waking world, there is no greater fool than Vanya, and he knows it—so he lives in his own mind.

Background Information:
Beads of snow, gently guided by the sky's soft hand, fell to rest on his brow. They were small and light as they drifted down upon the city below. A gentle, white blanket, covering everything in sight. It was like a dream world out there, when one could see through it to the distant hills beyond. Vanya’s first memory—held in one arm of his mother while his father slept on the snow-crusted floor. Her third husband was slain unceremoniously by her father’s men—on her order. Kamilla Nikolai knew of only one way to solve problems; she would destroy and never mend. The ease of destruction becomes the default answer for her always, a crutch of complacency.

But Vanya did not fear her. She was just another old woman with a will of iron who loved him and cared for him. Vanya was her fifth child and youngest son. His grandfather, Viktor, was a foremost member of the Bratva. His own father had been a senior official in the Russian government, and an assassin before that. The family name meant nothing to Vanya; he merely knew that his blood was thick with violence and treachery.

He spent much of his early years in the company of his grandparents. They taught him how to read and write in their own language. He learned about politics and history. But what he really liked best were tales told by his grandmother—about the great cities of ancient times. Cities whose names were lost long ago. Places where men lived in harmony with nature, and the Gods walked among them.

Vanya loved those stories, though they seemed more fantastic than real to him. And as he grew up, he came to realize that they were no more than fragments of a vanished reality, glimpsed in passing by a people gone from earth forever. In his leisure, he would buy and play video games, just to get a taste of what could be. It was not close enough though, never enough to let loose of the monotony he was chained in. He was a servant, a saboteur whose only purpose was to get a cushy spot in the government from nepotism. His sole end was to strengthen the position of his older brother when he would replace their grandfather and claim his heritage.

His older brother was undeserving by all accounts. When Vanya looked at his brother he saw a boy of ungainly proportions. His flabby arms and legs hung limply at his sides like wilting flowers. He was an embarrassment to his wealthy family, this unwieldy child of Russian lineage. His wispy frame was not built for hard labor and his leisurely habits had left him so unfit that even the simplest of tasks proved too much for him. His tongue, thick and unrefined, could not articulate the language of business. His eyes, sunken in like two dark pits, rarely looked up from the ground. He seemed doomed to fail, an unfit heir to a wealth of fortune.

The opulent abundance of his father's riches was like a long-forgotten dream, a dream that he had never dared to pursue. He stood, surrounded by luxury and affluence, and for the first time in his life, he felt a sense of entitlement. A dream, a goal, and a bubbling surge of envy. He studied, he worked, and he did everything in his power to prove his fitness, but to no avail. When it came time for his grandfather to retire, his older brother took his birthright.

Envy soured into wrath and Vanya dropped all of his pursuits in a mad stupor. Now, he sits idly wasting away in his own dreams. He has no desire to return to reality, for he can feel his blood coursing with fire. A new release, a new world to escape. When he sees the advertisement, he leaps eagerly at the chance.

If you could design your own RPG class, what would it be:
The weapon-master. They are highly skilled in the art of wielding a variety of weapons, from the swiftness of a rapier to the power of a warhammer. Their training allows them to swiftly and efficiently switch between weapons in the midst of battle, never letting their enemies gain the upper hand. Many of these warriors have perfected the art of dual-wielding, allowing them to wield two weapons simultaneously with grace and precision. They are a force to be reckoned with, as they can adapt to any situation, and are always prepared for whatever comes their way.

What is your goal when playing an RPG game: To find wealth, min-max my gear to the extreme, and speed-run the most powerful bosses.

  • Getting a picture of myself didn’t really jibe with me, so good luck identifying me from the description. I have slightly curly black hair that I rarely keep tidy. Also, my bangs reach my face which can be annoying sometimes. Oh, I also wear glasses since my eyesight is crap. I usually wear contacts, but since we’re not gonna be in civilization, I gotta use my bottlecap glasses. I’m also decently tall, around 5’9-ish, I think. Oh, if you expect me to dress well, tough luck. The only things I wear are long sleeves, hoodies, sneakers, and sweatpants (not to mention undergarments). Also, there’s this weird mole on my right cheek. Apparently girls like it, and I don’t give damn honestly. Oh, also my teeth are perfectly straight. Got braces a few years back but now they’re off.

Personal Information

Country of Origin: Korea
Spoken Languages: Korean, English

Personality:
  • I’m pretty lax about doing things. Just don’t go bossing me around, okay?
  • If there’s someone hurting, I’m not above talking them up. Just don’t expect me to babysit them.
  • You leave me alone, and I’ll leave you alone. The golden rule is golden for a reason.
  • If I headshot you, get rekt, lol.
  • Spending money is bad, so my battlestation is practically the equivalent to a potato. Also, what’s a phone?
    • Except when it comes to healthy food. I really don’t like diets, but seriously, I can’t eat junk food since it gives me mad stomach aches. Shut up and take my money. Give me the hanyak.
Background Information:
  • Yeah, I just grew up in a pretty dank hole in the wall. That’s all there is to it.
  • There was school, but I didn’t do too well there. I barely got my diploma. Oh, I was also pretty hot-blooded back then and still am. More like, I’m like a bear. Leave me alone, and I leave you alone. Try and poke me, though, get ready for a beating. The bullies usually left me alone. Didn't really care about the other kids, though. Not my problem.
  • I just work as a grocery store worker during the day. Though, when I’m not scanning barcodes, I’m usually working out and training my boxing. I’m pretty good. Got a few trophies out of it, but I’ve never really thought about going professional. Seems like too much work.
  • There’s also the odd-jobs I do here and there as well, but those aren’t too remarkable. It’s nothing illegal. That shit is way too stressful for me.

Employment Role:
  • Grocery store worker + gig-man + amateur boxer

Forename: Minma
Middle Name: n/a
Surname: Dior

Birthday: 01/17/1999
Gender: Male

Photo for ID:
1670394180073.png

Personal Information

Country of Origin: United States Of America
Spoken Languages: English, Spanish, Mandarin, Khanty

Personality: Minma is very intelligent and thinks things through before forcing any actions whilst keeping a cool head when under pressure. Although he thinks highly of himself he doesn't let his ego show.....usually, although he can be boastful about his skill at times and is never afraid to challenge someone if he thinks his being slightly disrespected. He's often courageous and adventures, always taking a chance to learn new things. He can be sarcastic especially at serious times. To those who he truly cares about, he has the upmost loyalty to them. When faced with problems he's clear-headed and calm. He's makes it hard to get along with him at first but he usually comes around. Minma is a hard working person. He doesn't fear anyone or anything that crosses his path in life. He believes in his power and skill level to be able to get him through any hardships. His intelligence level is on a different level and he's proud to show it off. With his intelligence, it made him a quick thinker and fast doer. Minma loves to train and is steady working on improving himself.
Background Information: Minma Dior was the offspring of a 5x MMA world heavyweight champion father and an astrophysicist mother. Having these two as parents has placed him in a position to always strive for greatness. Ever since Minma could remember he was forced to train under his father who wanted Minma to follow in his footsteps, however, it was Minmas' mother who he really looked up to. Although Minma spent countless days and nights training under his father and perfecting his martial arts, he would often sneak into his mothers laboratory and read up on studies and other material she had laying around. Minma never hated his father, contrary he adored him and cherished every moment spent together: sparring and jabbing one another, he just wished he could have polished his knowledge sooner. It wasn't until he moved out at 17, since he moved away for college, where Minma would truly unlock his true intellect.

During his years as an older adolescent, Minma continued to train himself in martial arts while also balancing a career as a quantum physics instructor for a class at Harvard University. At the age of 19 he had already earned his doctorate's degree and enrolled as an instructor. His alarming intellect didn't go unnoticed however, and he soon was met by the CIA where he declined a position as a director for their facility. At the age of 22 he earned a noble prize for his discoveries working as a quantum physics instructor.

If you could design your own RPG class, what would it be:
Minma would be the guy on the front lines throwing heavy hits while simultaneously stirring up tactical advancements. So a fighter/soldier/warrior, while also maintaining his position as a tactician. A balancing class would roughly fall under a ninja or assassin.

What is your goal when playing an RPG game:
Exploit the enemies weaknesses and kick some hardcore ass.
Observe and conquer every outcome.
Meet strong allies and even stronger enemies.
