Utterly Mad

Welcome to... What does it matter? The name doesn't matter, this is a Lost City. This city is huge, nearly as big as Rhode Island. The residents are either the drugged out psychos Dead Eyes, or the sober Survivors. If the Dead Eyes don't kill you the lack of food and water will, if you happen to have enough food and water, you are gonna get stabbed for your can of sardines. This city is hell, people want to leave but the outside world walled it off. You are trapped in hell. You're in your hideout, sleeping restlessly in your bed.

Name: Jason Barnaby
Age: Somewhere in his 30s
Gender: Male
Appearance: The world and the city hasn't been too kind to this ole' country boy. Even though he's in his prime, is beard and hair have streaks of grey. His nose is bent and 'broken', his thin lips are chapped, and most of his face is covered in dirt and what appears to be dried blood. He's of an average physique, but in his current state of malnutrition he's looking a little too thin. And shockingly, his teeth are a pristine white.
Clothing/armor:
Weapons:
Inventory:
Perks:
-Carpenter: He can construct things (out of wood and scrap) faster then most people [-3]
-The Man from Batertown: No matter how fair, or unfair a deal or trade is, people just can't seem to say no! [-2]
-HUGE GUTS!: Before he even moved to the city, he was a lumberjack, jumping from tree to tree, happily sawing with his chainsaw which he totally didn't steal when they fired him and chopping with his hatchet. Cutting down trees was once a very meditative and calming experience for him, and thus he knows his way around this tool of "productive" destruction. But when the Dead Eyes roamed the streets, and looters started outnumbering decent folk, he turned his tool into a weapon. Learning the ways of the chainsaw and hatchet, figuring out how disembowel in the fastest way possible. [-5]
Traits/Disadvantages:
-Numb: Though he has been fighting the city for a long time, and doing terrible, horrid things to survive. He's starting to care less and less about if he lives the next day or not, he really has no one on the outside, and anyone on the inside that he cared about is either a mutated druggie or dead anyway. [+1]
-Missing Digits: During a run in with a particularly nasty Dead Eye, it was in the ensuing wrestling match that he had both his index and middle finger on his right hand bitten completely off. Lucky part is, is that he managed to clean it and remove anything that would not allow it to heal itself. Unlucky part, he's a right handed man. [+2] [Can't use guns in right hand, any guns used in the left hand get a huge accuracy penalty]
-"Have you been taking your Joy?": In a brief fit before things went to shit, he tried some of the drug that ultimately led to the cities quarantine and downfall. In his brief stint he came out okay, but not unscathed. Parts of his brain have been "cooked", all together; he has a hard time remembering things that happened last week and normally has a journal with him to act as a 'second mind'; his metabolism was also mutated, requiring him to eat and drink more to sustain himself... but with literally no benefits. Its like he's got permanent munchies. [+3]

Equipment Disadvantage:
-Might as-well have been made in China: After years/months/centuries of use, and barely any parts to keep it functioning. Jason's Chainsaw has fallen into some hard times, first it was intestines and skull clogging up the engine or causing the teeth to not rotate, then it was lack of gasoline to power it, and now finally after so much use (a shocking amount actually) it has finally given up the ghost. The engine is shot to hell, the blood that's caked on it has cemented itself on the parts, and gas is such a luxury that if he were to find any, it'd be to fuel the generators for another day or two. Not to use in a chainsaw.

It does make for a helluva bludgeon though.

Skills: [Construction] [Destruction] [Machinery (chainsaw falls under this)] [Bartering] [Hatchets]

This feels Bioshock-esque
It is isn't it?

Name: Rhodri Kraakman
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Appearance: Rhodri is 5'10, and skinny from frequent malnutrition. His hair and eyes are brown, with his hair being long and unkempt. He has a full beard as well, giving him a "survivalist" sort of look.
Clothing/armor:
Weapons:
Inventory:

Perks: Melee Training: Rhodri took some martial arts classes before **** went down. He can look at an enemy's attack and have some way of countering it. Guy swinging an axe at you? Grab the axe by the handle, kick the ****er away and use his weapon against him. Guy trying to punch you out? Block the punch and trip him, proceed to stomp face in. You get the point. [-5]
Craftsman: Rhodri can make more items off the bat. [-3]
Iron Gut: Can't be too picky with what you eat in the Lost City. [-1]

Traits/Disadvantages: Blind in one eye: Some Dead Eye ****er slashed Rhodri's right eye with a dagger made of scrap. This left him blind in his right eye, and he has a nasty-looking scar running through his eye. [+4]

Skills: Unarmed combat (weapons like punch daggers and brass knuckles fall under this), Crafting, Tailoring.

I'm gonna make the IC tomorrow in the afternoon, I'm gonna probably wait for more people if they join.

In order for more people to join each other RP's, I will be joining every single RP that will be made from now on (join bladelands you scrublords)
