Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
As for your locations, I will just have your apartments confining to each other, will that be ok for y'all?
That would make your apartments at deck H C for 'central', S for 'Starboard', and 'P' for Port', Starboard and Port have their own view on the sea, while Central is provided with ShoWall technology

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Do you mean "connecting to each other"? "Confining to each other" doesn't make sense, sorry.
Other than that it sounds fine.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
if I am allowed a suggestion for a better interaction, since the occasion is growing.
Makani, Tee and Delilah are all set to a restaurant. They can ask their wristband to point them to the nearest one.
The nearest one is located one deck below, port side. Excellent view, fine dining for all necessities.
Also, posted for Kurowolfe. Sorry for the delay^^'

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Name: Roux (a mix of flower and fat cooked together and used in alot of Creole cooking to thicken sauses.)
Gender: Male
Color: Fuzzy Wuzzy (#CC6666)
Type: Main
Species/Breed: Catahoula Cur
Age: 2
Appearance: Somewhat tall, Roux has medium short fur and is really snuggly fluffy. His eyes are dull colored, a blend of Ice Blue and Grey. He often walks around smiling at everyone with a glint in his eye, and the color around his neck is simple and black made of some strong stuff like leather... With a tag that had a little skull as it's emblem.
Personality: Roux is a little bit manic, a gambling man and a man soul he has three primary functions in life. Drink, game, and music. He plays music constantly around him, a mix of jazz and big band, and is extremely good at the horn. His hands are always boping along to the beat of the music whenever he's not doing anything. He's extremely good at mixing drinks and serving them quick, that being his specialty, and often uses this as an excuse to talk to people. He's also great at gambling, and sometimes pulls a deck of cards out of nowhere just to play some rube or another. He always uses his wit and words to get out of situations, and if he's in trouble will often use his creole charm to convince them to make a 'fair' game out of whatever is going on.
Story: Being a free animal, and his own citizen on the ship, Roux definitely made it big time when he won the ticket in a game of craps. Heart of the cards, luck of the dice. He quickly found his place as a bartender, and general nucanse, based off the casseno floor. For a while he's dealinf decks, mixing drinks, and playing his horn on red velvet carpets but that's not enough. For his next trick, and his first story arc, Roux is going to back-ally deal his way into, somehow, gaining control of the casseno floor and bar.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Well, given his sheet, Roux is definitely one interesting life form. In fact, one like him could have easily gambled his way aboard the ship at the expenses of those who lost with him. That's what comes to my mind. And it'd fit with his interesting traits.
In fact, this guy seems perfect to be a challenge for security: a flamboyant rogue with talents, I like it a lot. His CS needs only to be refined so that you decide if he's a humanless passenger or a pet.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Oh, ok. If humanless passenger is a thing it totally fits him doesn't it? So yeah, how should I add that? Thst should be it. I'll add that he won his place in a card game. I like his rougeish qualities, but I'd asume he has a job with the casinos and he slowly works his way with baxk ally gambling and well placed bribes into head of the casinos. That is going to me his first ark.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
I wouldn't necessarily announce the bribes. If he's skilled, he shouldn't need them. Remember, Security won't mind cheating so much as they will bribery.
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
the only problem with this strategy is that the casino staff is made of ani-droids, and security is quite tight. He should be VERY good to draw at least the bartenders and/or cook staff to his side, since those are humans. Or he'd need to be one heck of a hacker to find a way to cheat into the games, since the anidroids are programmed just to avoid that.22xander wrote:Oh, ok.

As for his own lifestyle, since Roux has a legitimate ticket (he could prove it with a letter that testifies it), he can live his own lavish life as a passengers, all included, as long as the maiden voyage goes.
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
He'll find a way to get himself head of the place, and do what he can. He wants to figure it out, the games are fine the way they are but he wants control of the kitchens, the bars, and the music. Make a house a home with a little Louisiana style, big band and New Orleans Jazz music, home style cooking, and his own signature drinks.valerio wrote:the only problem with this strategy is that the casino staff is made of ani-droids, and security is quite tight.

And besides, I said he's going to try didn't I? He doesn't actually have to win the arc, it's just something for him to do. He's not one for finery, but boy does he love a party.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Something along the lines of an old repairman and his anidroid that he found and practically put back together. Old man, grey hair, fairly Geppetto-like in his looks. Droid is old, less refined looking, missing a few things, fur that hasn't been put on a piece, eye covers so it's just a glowing camera lense. Old and run down but loved nonetheless.
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
I have no real comment, but if you make this charecter I'm going to be making a bunch of FNAF jokes. Fair warning :3
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Uhm. Since Anidroids are built by Atlas Corporation and its subsidiaries (Jemmy and Asur being the only ones built by the Pentagon), you need a story how this guy could assemble an ani-droid out of scraps and claim ownership. Consider it a challenge!^^Deske wrote:Something along the lines of an old repairman and his anidroid that he found and practically put back together.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Cars are built by a multitude of companies, but that doesn't stop my friend from tearing them apart and building rat rods. Though the implications of doing so with artificial intelligence and assuming Atlas doesn't sell these on a consumer market, that'd be a bit more difficult.
I have a question though. How does Atlas rid itself of anidroids. What happens when they reach the end of their usefulness? What do you do with old parts when new ones come out?
What answer this has will decide whether or not it's feasible for me to make a story about a personally owned Anidroid or come up with another story of some sort.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Well, in this RP Atlas Corporation just STARTED to release anidroids to the market, and they are conceived to be durable models. This current generation is the first, operative since no longer than 1 year.Deske wrote:Cars are built by a multitude of companies, but that doesn't stop my friend from tearing them apart and building rat rods.

All damaged parts, anyway, are to be returned to the plants abilitated for recycling though you can understand that there are no sufficient scraps amassed in one factory to make one anidroid.
BUT, there are surely a lot of parts that come from earlier prototypes, defective anidroids that weren't even released on the market...so your human could have used those to assemble his own customized droid

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
I'm pretty sure I just watched that initial idea fly right out the window and gracefully shatter on the ground. Oh well. Either way, I'm probably going to hold off on writing up anything for a week. My phone is starting to die and that's how long until my laptop gets here. Thank you for the information, I will be seeing you in the future. Hopefully.

Sorry to hear that. Your idea had merits, though with some correction.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Eh, maybe something will come along. I just don't want to break your rules too much, considering the anidroids seem to be servantlike, I don't know how one with free roam would do.
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Oh, they are more free to roam than you think. Of course, they follow their specialization, basically, but it doesn't mean they lack any will or spirit of adaptation to new situation. Anidroids are supposed to evolve as AI, not to stay intellectually fixed like automatonsDeske wrote:Eh, maybe something will come along.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
I was told I could post this by Valerio. I'll work on one for Enrique tomorrow since his will be simpler.
Name: Miguel Villalobos
Type: Resident
Species: Anidroid Wolf
Age: 5 Pet Years / 2 Human Years
Color: #666699
Neighbourhood: Apollo City
Appearance: Miguel isn't your average Anidroid, in fact he's probably the only one like him in the world. Miguel is a custom built Anidroid, created by an employee of Atlas. His parts are mismatched but with proper fur coverage he looks relatively normal. Regular grey fur mixed with a bit of brown and various shades of grey give him a bit of a feral look, a feature intentionally given by his builder. He has all his parts and most of his fur which, unlike the grown fur of today's anidroids, his was a prototype synthetic blend meant to self repair after damage. Matching eyes are hard to come by for his head model as such only the green colored cameras are visible giving him a bit of an eerie appearance, especially at night. He's missing some motion dampeners so the small twitch movements like eye movements and ear movements are accompanied by small clicks as they move. Usually wears a pair of sunglasses to hide his eyes and a light jacket to hide the unfurred parts of his supporting chest structure. He's well built however and sturdy, no wires sticking out, just some supporting metal and exposed back and stomach servos, hence the jacket.
Personality: Miguel is rather charismatic, he's good at making friends and good at listening to people and helping with their troubles. He's as adventurous as he can be with his limitations. He's rather closed off about himself and tries to hide what he's missing, hence the sunglasses and jacket. His programming places him around 23 years of age.
Background: Miguels owner and creator, Enrique Villalobos, was a project overseer during a prototype phase of Atlas' Anidroid project. His knowledge of building parts and assembly allowed him to step forward as overseer and gave him the ability to build Miguel. During prototyping phase various parts were thrown into the metaphorical bin as unfit for use. Many of these parts were grabbed up by Enrique and used to build Miguel. This occurred over the entire prototype project as such, Enrique was able to gather many parts even extras in case things broke or turned out to be damaged. Over the course of his entire prototype project run, Enrique collected parts and built Miguel in complete secrecy, fixing and programming certain parts and processors to do their jobs correctly. By the end of the run, Miguel was near completion and when the consumer model Anidroids were released, Miguel was having his base personality completed. Just after Anidroids became a hit, Miguel was completed and running nicely, still covered in secrecy, but learning about the world nonetheless. Eventually, Miguel was brought out of hiding during a house visit that somehow turned out in Enrique's favor. The executive director had come to visit while Enrique was tinkering with a knee servo. The director stepped through the door and discovered Miguel and Enrique sitting there, both looking at him. A small write up of legal papers proving that Miguel was the legal property of Enrique, due in no small part to the fact that discarded objects are no longer considered property unless retained and Miguel was allowed to continue his existence albeit with no help from Atlas in the form of parts.
Other notes:
-Miguel is not waterproof, with no synthetic skin or fur to protect his midsection, water has full access to the movement systems for his legs and back or stomach. The jacket he wears protects him enough from rain or ocean mist, but being submerged or having large amounts of water directed at that area can cause small short circuits to his hip and spinal servos, usually resulting in their ceasing to function. Resiliency is his game though, a little drying and he'll be fine.
-Miguel has a malfunctioning vocal processor, due to an accidental short circuit during installation, leading to troubles such as a faulty censor and temporarily being unable to speak English.
-Miguel has a intermediate knowledge of various computer systems, coupled with a high powered prototype networking antennae, allows him relatively powerful remote access functionality and while he doesn't have a security system(Anti-Virus, Firewalls, etc) built into him, he is fully capable of defending himself against attempts to access his function s.

Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
The RP is set in our time. The ship is futuristic, it contains a hoard of the most advanced technologies that for various reasons are not marketed yet or are too costly to go into mass production. Other recent technologies are used in place of cheaper daily appliances. Several animals have been studying with new techniques and become specialists in a single discipline and work like humans would do. The most advanced technology present in term of robotics is of course the ani-droids.Hotep the psychic wrote:ok so this is a futuristic RP?

Every new appliance you can come up can be submitted in the OOC, as long as it does not violate physics laws and/or slips into magic. You can make new daring theories a reality, here.
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
Hey question, does Roux's general tallents count as the same thing as those dogs with full on carriers? I mean it's not conventional but the things I listed as his talents were the things that he used to get money of all sorts. I'm just woundering.
Re: HPU: Apollo City OOC
no problem with your character. There are tens of thousands of people aboard the ship, you can get any assortment you want when it comes to talents. Roux is fascinating because he's got one unique blend for one unique passenger who, technically, shouldn't even be there. He's the real X factor aboard^^22xander wrote:Hey question, does Roux's general tallents count as the same thing as those dogs with full on carriers?
