Before we start,
Not a Server RP!!!

The Story.
You wake up, you don't know where. Is it in the middle of the woods? In a swamp? How about a dark alley?

You look around, and then try to stand up. It takes you several minutes, but you eventually sit up. You look at your arms, and notice they are grey. Your neck moves slowly, as you look over yourself. You notice something not too far away from you.

Is it a knife? A gun? Or a rope?

Suddenly, the pieces come together. You realize... you're dead.

How is this happening? If you are dead, then how are you alive? Why are you dead in the first place?

Questions flood your mind, and you eventually stand up. You shuffle around for several minutes.

Do you actually look like a zombie? Does your leg drag behind you? Is your arm too stiff to move?

You keep moving for several minutes, and eventually get most of your limbs to co-operate. You walk just as you did before, except with a slight limp or your arm stops swinging at some point.

Soon, you find a reflective surface, either a shiny hubcap, a pool of clean water or a broken mirror. You get a look at your face. It is pale, grey, dead. Your eyes are glazed and white. You take one last look, and then turn away in fear. You walk off, and wrap your arms around yourself.

You instantly recoil. You are cold. Of course you are, you're dead. You feel the other parts of your body, and they too are cold.

What do you do from here?

Ghost Story
Yes, I know it is just copy and paste.

You wake up, you don't know where. Is it in the middle of the woods? In a swamp? How about a dark alley?

You look around, and then try to stand up. You can't move, or feel anything. You think about looking around, and your head moves. You look down, and see something.

It's you.

You panic, and try to back up. You can't move. You think about moving back, and you do. You look at your arms, and they are faintly transparent. You notice something not too far away from you.

Is it a knife? A gun? Or a rope?

Suddenly, the pieces come together. You realize... you're dead.

How is this happening? If you are dead, then how are you alive? Why are you dead in the first place?

Questions flood your mind, and you eventually get the basic idea of floating around.

Soon, you find a reflective surface, either a shiny hubcap, a pool of clean water or a broken mirror. You get a look at your face. It is pale, white, dead. Your eyes are glazed and white. You take one last look, and then turn away in fear. You walk off, and wrap your arms around yourself.

You instantly recoil. You are cold. Of course you are, you're dead. You feel the other parts of your body, and they too are cold.

What do you do from here?

Some things to know.
1) You are DEAD.
2) You don't need to eat.
3) You don't need to breathe.
4) You can't feel anything. No pain, no hunger, no fatigue.
5) Some part of you is not quite the same.
6) Your mind is still intact. You are not insane, or a mindless maggot factory.
7) It might scare people when they see a walking corpse.
8) Why are you dead in the first place?...

Rules
1) I am the boss. What I say goes.
2) Listen to the acceptors.
3) Include 'dead' in your everything else.
4) Basically, just read my guide.
5) You have three (three, tres, drei, 3) chances to apply.
6) Don't break any of my rules. http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/how-to-be-a-good-role-player/

Backstory:

Name: Mike Gringham
Age: 23
Cause of Death: Climbing accident.
Appearance: I'll photoshop one later.
Personality: Spastic, happy nearly all the time, and loves climbing.
Backstory: Mike was a happy guy. He was newly married, and he was the climbing director at a scout camp for the second year running. He was on the repelling wall, when a kid's shirt got caught on the wall twenty feet down.

Being the only certified rescue climber at the time, he locked in and slid down to help the kid. The boy was panicking, and absolutely lost it when Mike pulled out the knife to cut his shirt. Mike couldn't get a good go at the shirt, and accidentally cut his own rope.

He fell thirty feet, and landed on the knife blade. He was killed instantly.
Anything Else? If my friend finds out I based this off of him, I'm a dead man.

There's literally no problem with your app, Clue. Except, I'm pretty sure Bn has some secret plot thing that he told no one about yet, yet he declines you because your character might have some kind of interference with his secret plot, which isn't fair because you could've never known of it. And, you used an abnormal amount of different lines.

Cause of Death: Suicide. He swallowed some poison, shot himself in the head, and hung himself over the edge of a cliff while he was on fire. He mised his head, and severed the rope. He fell of the cliff into some deep water, which put out the flames.. He swallowed some of the salt water, which made him vomit the poison. He was washed ashore and saved. 2 weeks later, he died of pneumonia. XD

Say what?

It's rather simple. He tried to commit suicide in every way possible at once, and failed. Two weeks later, he died of pneumonia. What do you not get?

Name: Bogdan "Lenin" Khmelnitsky
Age: 27
Cause of Death: Democide. I think that's the word.
Appearance:



(NOT ANONYMOUS, V, FROM V FOR VENDETTA.)

Personality: Very antisocial, prefers to try and stay out of business. Also, very anti-government.
Backstory: Socialist, communist, anarchist, activist - call him what you will. No matter what he, she, or it is, Lenin is the most revolutionary revolutionary ever. Involved in countless asssassinations of politicians, including poisonings, headshots, and even stabbing in public, Lenin is nothing short of the greatest anti-government advocate ever.

However, the government caught him in a Byzantine web. He was contracted by an unknown person to kill a low-ranking official, and was told to aim for the head. As he was setting up for the most efficient kill, a SWAT team was sent in. Bogdan didn't pick this up until his corpse was already littered with bullets.

Now, he wanders as a ghost, trying to find the official that he was going to kill.
Anything Else?

He fell of the cliff into some deep water, which put out the flames.. He swallowed some of the salt water, which made him vomit the poison. He was washed ashore and saved. 2 weeks later, he died of pneumonia. XD
Appearance: http://www.google.com/imgres?q=furry+ar ... x=33&ty=46 , but you know, realistic, and dead, and not herobrineish.
Personality: Funny, cracks jokes. Likes to pretend to be, you know, alive.
Backstory: Seve was born in a poor French family. He had to get a job at the age of 9 to help buy food. When he was old enough, he managed to scrape up enough money to go to a very cheap college, and get a decent job. He saved up enough money to move to America, in the hopes that he and his family could find better work. His parents found a job at a bookstore before they retired at the ages of 72 and 61. They died of natural causes as he took over their store. Are you reading this? Seve soon moved on from the bookstore, and began to work for a make-up company. Working his way up, he became the CEO. He soon realized that this was too much stress. He tried to run it, but his every decision was criticized. He tried to commit suicide, using every possible way, just to ensure he would not have to deal with the stress. Would you like me to say it again? Too bad, I'm lazy. Seve amazingly survived the suicide, in an ironic circumstance. He was watched to make sure he didn't try to kill himself again, but he sadly died of pneumonia.
Anything Else? Is this dead?
