Silverman Loan and Trust OOC; Closed. Rated {M}

The Silverman Loan and Trust bank, Los Angeles. Attractive, tall, wealthy, and surrounded by other skyscrapers and offices in the heart of the city. The bank's vault is estimated to hold a bit over 30 million dollars...the suckers.


A band of thieves have decided to rob it. After successfully entering the vault below, they are unfortunately met with the realization that someone tripped the alarm, and police now surround the bank. Unknown how they will survive, or IF they will survive at all, the band of thieves are trapped inside together. Some say there is "No Honor Amoung Thieves"...will these thieves break the mold? Will they help each other along to the end? Or end each other?


---------------------------------

And that's essentially the plot. This RP will be centered around the band of theives (You guys) and their efforts to leave the bank, and deal with each other at the same time.

This RP will be rated {M} for explicit language, brutal themes, possible drug use, and possible mild sexual content. (If you REALLY feel the need to "get it on" with a fellow Robber in the heat of the moment, keep it mild. Nobody came here to read Porn.)

Here's are the descriptions of the areas of the bank. (I'm to lazy / unskilled enough to make an actual floorplan).

This the the first RP I've made here. (And on my like, 3rd day) so if you have any comments, or just down-right HATE it, feel free to let me know. Otherwise, post your Char sheets, we'll go over plot developments and whatnot as it goes along, and we'll get this hellride started.

Note: I MAY allow 1 cop if one really wants to play as one, but they would have to present good reason / plot idea. I'll post a Character Sheet if people promote an interest in this RP.

I like the basic concept/idea of this a good bit I have to say. *smiles* Its quite original, and I'd be curious to see where such a plotline ended up going. That being said, now that you've created your first rp, why not go on an advertising blitz? I would heartily suggest putting a link/banner in your siggy, using the roleplay directory, and when you have enough posts PMing folks to ask if they'd like to join.

Oh yes, you should also put possible how many otehr folks, what types of robbers, that sort f thing perhaps as well?

Anyways, good luck! If you need any help advertising please ask. :3 I'll consider joining myself, but just have to see how the ever so dreaded schedule plays out.

You folks, I'm retired pretty much officially. *nods* Take care okay? You can hit me up on AIM at Griff Highwind or email me at griffhighwind @yahoo.com I'd love to hear from ya sometime!

Why thank you very much! This is the first RP i've created on these forums, and I'm not quite sure how people would recieve it. As for the advertising, I don't know how to create a banner beyond putting a URL in my sig.

~grin~

@ Gabe- Thank you for the link, forgot to put it in the advertising thread. ~happy~

That is a really original idea you have there! Even if I am not included in the game I am dying to see where this ends up.
Here's my Character Sheet, I have tried to keep it as brief as possible but if you want to know anything else let me know :)

-Real Name
Bella Cullen
-Aliases (If any used during the heist if a Character wishes to conceal who he is from the Other Robbers.
Known by first name only. No-one knows her surname.
-Gender
Female
-Appearance (Physical)
5' 4"
110lbs
Long, wavy, dark hair
Dark brown (almost black) eyes framed by long dark eye-lashes
Pale, creamy coloured skin
Oval shaped face with full lips
Body-wise she is slim and stronger than shes looks, although she is not muscular in any way.
-Appearance (Apparel)
Black leather bikers jacket
White cotton vest
Fitted black combat trousers
Black leather high-heeled boots
And a balaclava
-Past Crimes. (Although you must list ALL of them, you may state which you wish to be known to both fellow Robbers and Police Record.)
Arson, Assault, Theft, Forgery, ID Theft, Bribery, Murder, GTA.....the usual
Her fellow robbers are aware of her background.
The police are aware but have not managed to pin anything on her.....yet.
-Special Trademarks and Conditions (Suffer from a mental illness? Like to go to the bathroom on whoever you kill? Fine, list it here.)
No mental illnesses or special trademarks. However, the only way you would know she has been anywhere is if something is missing. Stealth would be her main talent.
-Weapons of Choice (What are ya taking with ya?)
1) Note: Only 1 main weapon, 1 sidearm, 1 melee, and 3 grenades are allowed max. (If you have 2 little weapons like Uzi's as your main weapon, that's fine.)
2) The only exception to this rule, is the team's Demoman, who will carry an additional Explosive Charge to blow the vault or a wall w/e.
2 Heckler & Koch USP 9's
1 Gerber Guardian Boot Knife
-Nationality
English
-Background
Bella was born in the west end of London where she lived with her mother, father and older brother. She left home at 13 to attend boarding school in Europe, although she regularly moved school at her tutors request due to "high-spirits".
She moved to New York aged 19 where she began down the slippery slope to jail. She has been linked to many high profile thefts in the past few years but never charged or caught in the act. While she readily admits to being a thief she never steals from "good" people, preferring to target corporations and the obscenely rich.
Bella is highly confident but naturally a very quiet person, she surveys her surroundings and other peoples reactions to a situation before making a judgment.
She is highly intelligent and could be described as manipulative towards her "friends" and foes.

-Special Trademarks and Conditions: Slight asthma, though she smokes. Also she has two cigar burns on her left wrist and a scar shaped ya?)

-Real Name: Dorian McAllistor

-Aliases (If any used during the heist if a Character wishes to conceal who he is from the Other Robbers.

Hawk

-Gender: Male

-Appearance (Physical):
Spoiler: click to toggle
Thicker on the arms though muscle-wise

-Appearance (Apparel): Black jeans, combat boots, plain black t-shirt, black motorcycle jacket, sunglasses, black visored and background motorcycle helmet with a hawk poising to strike on the back of it, black gloves, and the lower half of a balaclava.

-Past Crimes:
1) Illegal street racing (several convictions)- Known
2) Public assault (several convictions)
3) Burglery (several convictions)- Known
4) Kidnapping (suspect)

-Special Trademarks and Conditions: Punches his victems in the ribs with his ringed hand leaving a scar of a hawks head in their side as a permament reminder.

-Weapons of Choice (What are ya taking with ya?)
1) Note: Only 1 main weapon, 1 sidearm, 1 melee, and 3 grenades are allowed max. (If you have 2 little weapons like Uzi's as your main weapon, that's fine.)

Main: Desert Eagle (with many extra clips)
Sidearm: Three inch battle knife
Melee: switchblade
Three grenades

(If you'd like me to change that, I'm down, just give me a heads up)


-Nationality
American

-Backround: Dorian was born into a life of crime. He had sharp instincts, keen eyes, and quick reflexes. His father indirectly pushed him into it. He was always being beaten by the drunk, either for no reason, or by defending his mother who died when he was ten. At twelve, he ran from home, and found some street racers. They beat him too, but realized that it didn't bother him after being beaten so much.

They took him to their leader as it was a group of racers rather than loners, and they threw him on a bike. His specialties (said earlier) were proved invaluable, he was a natural. They trained him before he could drive, and as soon as he could, he dominated. Now number one on the streets, though it wasn't all he wanted in life. Racing was fun, but there needed to be more adventure.

He left the racers on one condition, he come back and race in important races. Now he is doing organized crime such as this.

Hawk can also navigate his way around a computer amateuraly. He was a natural, but even naturals need to feed their talents, though his skills lay with motorcycle performance/enhancement, he has other skills he practices with for such occasions. He has many limitations though.

Thank you both for hopping aboard. ~grin~

I've already looked over and accepted "Spadge".

As for Skie's character, there's 2 things.
The physical appearance pic that you posted doesn't work, so if you can't fix it, please post a written version.

And as for your crimes, you hinted about what's on your police record, but failed to mention what the Robbers know of your criminal past. If you could edit it so, that would be great. I'm going to accept your character in the meantime.

Real Name- Daniel Miranda

Aliases- Silas

Gender- Male

Appearance-
Spoiler: click to toggle


Silas is wearing exactly what he is wearing in the picture, a nondescript black and white suit. Along with it he carries a duffel bag in which he carries his supplies. He stands at 5'10 with a normal build. His hair is naturally brown but he colors it blond.

Past Crimes-

Known - Drug trafficking (Convicted and time done under his original name)

Unknown -Murder
Arson

Weapons of Choice (What are ya taking with ya?)

Main- Personal grenade launcher, can be armed with both smoke and explosive grenades.

Sidearm- Beretta 9mm

Melee- A very sharp knife.

Grenades- Homemade high yield pipe bombs rigged pennies which act as shrapnel. Three of them.

and of course an explosive charge

Nationality- East Coast

Background- Pharmacy work can be boring, even for the most studious of people. In a place filled with drugs the decision of where to divert your attention is obvious, obvious to both Daniel and to his boss. He met a few interesting friends in prison though, friends with interesting professions who were quite happy to meet someone with a chemistry major such as himself. Skills were exchanged and Daniel saw the world in a new light. There was just... so much out there ripe for the taking. He did his time and found work out of prison with ease, especially the kind of work which involved the knowledge he had and the knowledge he learned. Five bombings on the Northeast coast, four of which were just competitors to his employees but the fifth was just for fun. Only 7 people dead, over twelve wounded. Then, things started becoming an little too pressed on that end so perhaps it was time to move. LA seemed like a good spot to go, with a job which had quite lucrative payoffs.

I like the Silas character very much. I think the team's found their demolition's expert.
~grin~

However, I want to point out that "Caucasian" is more of personal appearance than a type of nationality.

Welcome aboard.



*****I'll start when we get 1 more person, and I'm partially holding it open for Nona, who replied earlier to see if she had enough time to juggle with her current RP activity and stuff. So I'm going to PM her before I allow the last spot to disappear.

In which we the robbers discuss the particulars of plan B

With 20 minutes left there are really two options to choose from, we smash, grab and leave within 20 minutes or we'll need to use those 20 minutes to make sure that once the police charge in we're not all pretty much screwed. I'm supposing that we're going for the latter option because the safe isn't going to be open any time soon. In my opinion there's a few things we need to do.

-First, force the hostages to move furniture so that the entrances are barricaded.

-Separate all of the hostages so that they are all alone. Hostages together can communicate and are much more likely to try to escape. They don't need to be in different rooms as we'll need to always be able to make visual contact with them. So separate all the hostages, bound and gag them, instructing the hostages to buck their knees together if they need to use the restroom.

-Take complete control of the bank, finding the manager and eliminating any other guards. We'll need to take control of the security system and other such things.

-Think of a way to force our way our of here with hostages. Anyone ever see Operation:Swordfish? If we don't need to use the explosives on the vault we may be able to use something similar.

Well, I think the bind and gag is an excellent idea, someone will need to scavenger for something to bind with though >.>

I really don't think the hostages will do much as far as plotting, because 1. There are no character hostages (I assume there wont be?) 2. I actually think it would make for a more interesting story if they could fight back a little. and 3. There's already been a shooting, people are more likely to act if there's a chance they won't be killed.

I think the group should have to rely on their intelligence as well as brute force, maybe plan B could be a special escape route that's been blocked and they were unaware. I'm not sure exactly how it would work.

I completely agree with barricading the doors and any windows, but I think it should wait til the last minute as police are arriving, since they hope to get out of there first.

Ooh I like the hostage character idea. I might open up 1 or 2 spots for em.

However, the thing about the cops coming in about 20 minutes, is that it's wrong. The cops response time is 15 minutes, and by the time we open the vault and start to head out, we find that they've surrounded the bank.

As for getting the vault open, we can decide whether to open it peacefully, or blow it. Keep in mind, we blow it, we get less money from it. You can execute either of those Plan B details you specified earlier, but don't expect on leaving the bank in 20 minutes.

EDIT: If someone wants to go ahead and introduce their character by shooting some guards or something after the alarm, feel free to do so if ya feel the need.

Double EDIT: I want to give everybody a chance to introduce themselves at the beggining before I post again. If someone hasn't introduced themselves yet, you can advance the story by starting preparations to get the money.
