Show Me Your Criminals

Posted 6 years, 11 months ago (Edited 5 years, 2 months ago) by Lonestarcelt

From the seediest back alleys to the opulent pent houses and offices of the most lavish towers to even the house next door to behind the highest offices of some governments or companies. There's one common element that binds all these places together and it's as much a part of human nature as anything else. Crime. From things as simple as stealing food to survive to some crimes which could be considered especially heinous. From the most petty misdemeanors to the vicious felonies. Criminals exist in all strata of daily life. Some have been caught and others are still at large. That's where this thread comes into play. This thread is for criminals of all shapes and forms. From all settings from the most fantastical, the most futuristic, the most contemporary? It doesn't matter. If you have yourself a character who is or was a criminal in some shape or form. Have they been caught for shop lifting and had to pay a fine? Assassinated a head of state and is on the run? Committed some unspeakable act and is now waiting on death row...or worse? Perhaps they were never caught at all? This is the thread for them. 

There are some rules however

  1. Given the nature of this thread there is a very real chance some seriously sensitive topics might come up? While this thread won't be marked as mature, as not all crimes might be particularly nasty, be smart in what you talk about and how. For example. For sensitive subjects please black out the text like this. Example text. Along with that. This thread will be less to recount the vivid graphic details of the crime and more simply letting people know what they did. For example. You can have a character that maybe be a serial killer. Try to frame it as just that. Saying what they are and maybe alluding to some of their crimes but keep any actual descriptions vague and PG-13 at worse. We don't need to know about particularly graphic details of a person's crimes. 
  2. Try not to romanticize what your character did if they did something particularly awful. By which, I mean, if say your character is a war criminal don't try to describe their crimes in a good light for example. There are exceptions to this rule such as the aforementioned stealing to eat but things such as war crimes, sexual assault, serial murder, or crimes against children? Don't frame those things as good or noble. 
  3. You can either post your characters one at a time or as a group in an OOC post. Post options are perfectly valid. Just try not to dominate an entire page with your characters. So if you are posting a few on their own? Try to only do three at a time and let more people post in the interim before you go back to going one at a time.

  4. Be respectful and don't cause drama. If someone breaks these rules please let me know and I or the admins will handle the situation.

    Now that that's out of the way? Let's bring out the line-up.

Current Ban List:

  • None, let's keep it that way. 
sasha cynocardia

sasha: extortion, blackmail, bribery, threatening bodily harm, destroying and stealing important documents, breaking and entering and trespassing, stealing their boss's cat after setting her house on fire but the catnapping was an accident because what were they supposed to do, sabotaging a p.i.'s investigation, attempting to sabotage a company's profits and expose evidence that one of their medications is potentially dangerous, petty destruction of property (windshields and tires). in the past: tampering(?), kidnapping

rook: murder is legal for mercenaries in their world as long as they're not seen doing it, so. however, robbing nobles who contracted them and publicly brawling (different from sparring; 2 parties agreeing to fight and one guy just flinging themself at another are not the same thing) isn't

marie: she's sasha's boss. uh. idk what to call "using the guy your grandfather used as an enforcer as also an enforcer". she's tom and sasha's greg. she plays the white collar game almost completely straight were it not for how she moves sasha around like a pawn to get away with doing illegal stuff. she's also just, like, the worst

sid and morgan: criminals like batman is a criminal.

 Vito 'The Boss' De Stasio pandaAWAKE

Vito is a business man, or crime boss. However, it is not intended that there is much focus on what he does, but more on his childish and cartoony behavior. Picked this guy to write about, as I like his character, he is such a cry baby and dramatic. (Crimes: Stealing, disorder, such)

Sinwotraz 2balt

I have quite a few! Sinwotraz here worked for an organization against the Interstellar Police Force and then accidentally made herself into goop.
