Red Rising RP (SIGN UP)

[KaladinsSenseOfHumourSpren He/Him]

How many people here have read Red Rising by Pierce Brown? Saying 'read Red Rising' sounds really weird out loud. 

Anyway, let's RP! I'm thinking that we pretend that all golds except RP characters (initially, at least) have vanished. 

(Lightbringer spoilers)

Spoiler

Maybe someone made Eidmi 2.0? I probably spelt that wrong.

So all remaining golds head to Luna for an Institute, the best gets to be Sovereign, the next best become ArchImperators or ArchGovernors, Imperators, Governors and Praetors follow. 

So, this'll start with an Institute. This will have spoilers for the first book, Red Rising. Even if you don't mind spoilers, this will be difficult to understand if you're not familiar with the worlds of Red Rising.

For now, all characters are Gold.

Name (e.g. Lysander au Lune):

Gender:

Personality (two sentences at least):

Ancestry (just which planet/moon their family is from is enough. E.g. Venus, Ceres, Titan, Io, Luna):

Physical attributes (think strength, height and speed relative to the average Gold):

Other (things like charisma, problem solving, etc): 

 

As drafters no longer exist (yet), pick your own houses! We have Mars, Ceres, Minerva, Pluto, (struggles to remember), Bacchus, Juno, (checks the wiki), Diana, Apollo, Jupiter, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Vulcan.

However, as I doubt there'll even be thirteen people in the first round, a lot of the houses will not be present and we'll most likely have two or three in each, making it a fast Institute. 

Sign ups close when I deem we have enough players.

oh god, red rising? That's a throwback.

For context, Red Rising is a sort of space opera dystopia with a caste system based on "color" (it's roles), with gold on top. The Institute is a kind of proving ground for rich kids, and it's kinda like the Hunger Games but high tech.
 

 I probably won't play, but I encourage people to read the books/ play the game!
