This is an RP based loosely off the series "Lost" on ABC. The essential plot will be that of the television show except it is taking place on a different "Island" but with the same mysterious qualities of the television show. The characters from the show will not be incorporated into this RP, as it is only based off the idea of "Lost."

EVERYONE is playing a human, and there is no magic. This will be pretty interesting to show almost an everyday life sort of RP after a tragedy where there is almost no hope for the survivors. I want people to make their character's interesting and give them personality flaws and vices, as well as virtues.

A Xeios production at the forceful push of Clockz to get off my ass and do something RP-tastic, while waiting for Comet Saga at least. XD



Background:

"American Airlines Flight 278B is now boarding."

A gentle spoken flight attendant speaks over the intercom in the Airline lobby. A crowd of people, diverse and proclaiming many different tastes and personalities, move slowly towards the gate, handing their tickets to the Flight Attendant at the front. Everyone is welcomed onto the plane with a lei. A kind farewell from the Island of Hawaii. The passengers begin taking their seats, the time is precisely 10:23, the plane is leaving in seven minutes. People are still crowding on, trying to fit their luggage into the overhead compartments. Everything begins quieting, a few stragglers bring up the rear, keeping the plane a minute late from their departure. Slowly the plane backs up, and makes its way to the runway. The captain is informed of an error, but it appears to have fixed itself minutes later. The plane begins it's steady movement to taking off. Gathering speed and making liftoff.

Everything is going well, until a thousand miles off the coast of Hawaii. The right engine begins sputtering, but once more, it fixes itself shortly thereafter. The radio shuts down on the pilot, and he loses all transmissions with the Air Traffic Control Center. The pilot knows this is not a good time to be flying "blind," and begins turning back towards Hawaii, the closer stop for him. He thinks not to alarm the Vacationers as of yet, as he is sure they will not worry too much about spending another day in paradise. About 500 miles later, he announces to the passengers that they lost radio transmission a little while back so they were making a return to Hawaii hoping to beat out a bad storm that was going to be hitting the California Coastline in a few hours time. As he finished speaking to the passengers, the pilot picked up a strange signal, a mayday signal of sorts. Confused the pilot thinks only to try and contact the signal, and not Air Traffic Control.


"Can you hear me, what's your location."

*intelligible static* "Mayday" *static* "Lost.....Transmissions...Storm" *intelligible noises.

"Repeat, repeat transmission."

A storm rolled in in brilliant speed and the plane was assaulted with rain.

"Can.....See.....Me?"

"I can't see shit out here, state flight number please, I'll try and bounce your signal to ATC."

The pilot began fiddling with switches, trying to find a signal on the transceiver, a signal of someone in charge.

"Northbound......flight....67.......34000ft....Bearing northeast........"

Something clicked in the pilot's head, it could have been the direction, but was most likely the height. They appeared to be heading in opposing directions, and at the same height. Thinking quickly, the pilot turned to radio the passengers.

"Hold on tight!" Was all he had time to get off as he turned the plane downward and west, hoping to avoid the potentially oncoming aircraft. The passengers began to murmur about this sudden outburst and were driven to a panic as the oxygen masks dropped.

The Pilot's brow was covered in sweat as he noticed a glimmering peice of metal amidst the lightning. Despite his best efforts, the plane was still heading towards him, in a directly straight line. A small personal plane, heading at this height, or...was the height incorrectly read? All the pilot knew was that these were potentially the last moments of his life.









CRASH! It appeared the small aircraft collided directly with the tip of the airliner's wing. Sending off pieces of metal everywhere, damaging the hull of the plane. With little choice left and about to pass out from the loss of pressure, the captain aimed for a bit of land he could barely make out when lightning struck what appeared to be a mountain. Flight 278B, bearer of 143 passengers crashed late one December 29th.
This is the tale of it's survivors.




*bows* Thank you, thank you.

Uhhh, character sheet is in due order.

Oh, and guns, guns are a big no-no without good reason and approved by me. Guns must be in the hold, and must be kept in a locked bulletproof case, as with Airline regulation. This goes along with the regulation of all other weapons.(knives etc.) Also, with guns, you will be severely limited in Ammo, and the bullets shot will count against that total.



Name --

Age --

Nationality -- Country you originate from. (in parenthesis, put what different types of nationalities made the character)

Appearance -- (What you look like, give details on any extraordinary features or things that stand out. Comment on body type and build, clothing when they wake up after the crash.

Vices -- (Qualities others will find that are not so favorable, a key force in what will drive your character, and what will either draw others towards you or push them away.)

Secrets -- (Note, DO NOT fill this section out and post it here, if you could, please PM me with these, make them interesting. If need be, use examples from "Lost" like the character Charlie who is addicted to Heroine. Can be character Traits, Vices, Virtues, and Back story)

Possessions -- (Anything of note or value, something important to your character. Whether in their overhead bags or in the hold. Some of this stuff will be retrieved now and throughout the course of the RP. Clothes are a given, and should not be mentioned in this section.)




Let's hope this is a big one and let's all make this good.

Name -- Brady Hallahan

Age -- 20

Nationality -- American (Irish and English as well as a mut of other nationalities)

Appearance -- Brady has a smoothe, light complexion and hazle eyes. Her hair is long and thick, a shade of dark red and usually kept in a french braid. She quite the petite individual and stands at about 5'4". For the plane ride, Brady made sure to dress casually and comfortably, which explains her black sweatpants, sneakers, and light blue(now dirty) tanktop.


Hometown, State/Country -- Born in Philadelphia, PA(Gotta honor the Philliness the nerds are starting) but currently resides in New York City.

Occupation Pre-Crash -- Brady is a film student with an internship and a part-time job at an insect museum to pay for her college expenses.

Back story -- The director Brady had been interning with was shooting parts of his film. She was being sent home ahead of the rest to take care of some of his work back in NYC.

Virtues -- Brady has a good head on her shoulders. While not the most intelligent person in the world, she is well-rounded. She also knows when to speak and when to listen, as well as how to take simple things around her and innovate them according to her needs.

Vices -- Trust is not the easiest thing for her to give and she tends to dwell on things of the past, allowing everything to pile up, without uttering a single cry for help. (Teehee....might not sound that bad, but dudes, women like that are dangerous. XD)

Secrets -- Will PM them to you after class tonight.

Possessions -- Though most of her posessions were lost in the crash, her carryon contained some articles of clothing. In one of her bags was also a ziplock freezer bag with nailpolish remover, a nail filer, nail clippers, and other small toiletrees.

(I dun think they'd let a nail filer on the plane as a carry-on, so mind if she finds the bag just floating in the water or something? I want to be different, and rather than have a gun or something, the other items can actually be useful and I'm not talking about vanity purposes. If this isn't okay, just lemme know.)

I'm gonna start this RP up tonight!

I know all of you are tired of waiting for RPs to start and stuff, so this one is going right up.

Oh, another thing, I GREATLY ENCOURAGE more entries to be made, remember, just because there are faceless survivors with us, doesn't mean they can't turn into actual characters. Post new characters you want to play whenever you feel like it.

Enjoy!
