Roleplay

You have a perfectly normal life. You may not be happy all the time, but you do nothing out of the ordinary. Then, someone in a black hoodie, black leggings, and a black mask that covers their mouth and nose shows up at your door, asking your parent’s permission to take you to train in the arts of the Walkers.

Every year, the Walkers send out Collectors to seek out teenagers with the abilities of the Walkers. If their guardian consents for them to be taught the arts, they become Pupils and have to journey with their Collector to the capital city of the Walkers. They must brave many dangers on the way and must keep to the shadows to avoid the eyes of opportunists who would use their powers to their own advantages. Because of this, Collectors often move in small groups with other Collectors and their Pupils, which also allows the Pupils to get to know each other and form friendships, a vital part of their journey towards becoming Walkers.

Our story takes place in England, where a group of Collectors are trying to find their Pupils and attempt to get back to the capital in Norway. They will encounter many challenges, but may find friendship and maybe love on the way. The Collectors must also help their Pupils pass the most important test of their lives... the Rite of Passage.

This RP is based off of Alan Walker’s music videos, which tell the story of a group called the Walkers... and if you watch them you may guess what the Rite of Passage is ;). Anyways, the Walkers aren’t my group, but the idea of the Rite of Passage, the Collectors, and the Pupils are all mine.

My Character:

Character Name: Sophie Harris, nicknamed Soph.

Role: Pupil

Age: 16

Gender Identity: Female

Sexuality: She’s not sure, but thinks she’s either bisexual or pansexual.

Personality: Soph is very introverted and quiet. She does like to talk to kids with the same interests as her. Once you get to know her she is very excited to see you and is a great friend. She hasn’t had a romantic relationship before, so she doesn’t really know how to get one or how to keep one going.

Appearance (pictures are welcome, but if it’s not yours please say so): Soph has black hair with purple highlights and blue eyes. She is nearsighted and has purple glasses, but she typically wears contacts instead. She wears a grey sweater with black jeans and black sneakers before her Collecter comes for her, and the signature black hoodie, leggings, and mask after they come for her.

Likes/Strengths: Soph likes to read, make music and sing, LOVES chocolate, and video games. Her strengths are that she can speak some French and German, her ability to make music, and that she is pretty fast and agile when she runs.

Dislikes/Weaknesses: Soph doesn’t like awkward silence, avocados, and not knowing what comes next. Her weaknesses are weapon gases, cute animals, and a good book.

Backstory (optional): Soph comes from a great family. Her parents supported her in any decision she made, but were also strict on some things, like curfew. She is a only child and was a straight A student. She was bullied a lot at school though, which led to her amazing speed at running.

Other: She has pierced ears and wears diamond studs. She also has a necklace given to her by her grandma that has a single sapphire on it.

And it's not in a shy, scaredy cat way, more of a 'I don't have time for you and I don't care' kinda way. She is behind a facade, and does not give away information willingly. She's normally calm, calculating, and curious. Fairly sensitive, but she hides it behind a mask, not letting things get to her like they should. She absolutely loves messing with things, and is like a cat with the way she gets on your nerves. She gentle though, and calm, often digging at people with a smirk. Is teasing. Introverted, she just dislikes people. She is extremely impractical and sometimes lives in her own little world. Spaces out a little bit. Just wants a friend, but has zero social skills and never picks up clues. Doesn't like telling people things about herself. She does not like responsibility, and can be moody.

Her real hair color is really, really dark brown, but she hates that color, so it's purple. Her eyes are a green-grey-blue, if that makes sense.

Her parents, however, didn't have much time for her, running their empire, and such. She was taken care of at a young age, just by her parents, and developed a entitled attitude. However, behind the facade if weath and power, her parents beat and neglected her, giving her plenty of fears and insecurity. She kept this secret, she never talked nor spoke about it. As she got older, at the age of 6, her parents decided it was time for a couple nannies, and left her mostly in the care of them. The nannies were hired together. They were a lesbian couple, Garnet and Indigo. They were appalled by the young girls actions, though blamed it on the parents, and took it upon themselves to educate the child. She grew quite close to them, learning all she could, and developing their personalities. They were more her parents than her actual parents. [b]Other: [/b] [LIST] [*] She has a Saluki named Anastasia. [*] She carries resentment, and anger, at her parents, that will flare up without warning. It's literally terrifying when she gets into murder mode don't ask about her parents. Her parents never told anyone she existed. [/LIST]

@MintyKitsune

Accepted! Love her hair!

@Enmity

No rush!

I'm wanting to make a Collector character, so if I could, I'd love to get more info on the Walkers and Collectors! (so that I can make my character as accurately as possible to what a Collector would be like). Like what exactly are the Walkers' roles in society/what they do for their jobs, and are the Collectors a completely different group, or are they just Walkers that get assigned to go get Pupils? Is there a certain age range for pupils/walkers/collectors. And what exactly are the abilities of the Walkers, and if the Collectors are different, do they have the same or different abilities from the Walkers? Sorry for all the questions! [b]Character Name[/b]: Solomon Wright [b]Role[/b]: Collector [b]Age[/b]: 29 [b]Gender Identity[/b]: Male [b]Sexuality[/b]: Straight [b]Personality[/b]: Solomon is often described as a grumpy old man who dislikes people most of the time. He’s very serious most of the time, , and it’s hard to get him to laugh or even crack a smile. He’s blunt with his words, liking to get to the point, hating pleasantries. He keeps to himself most of the time, enjoying his solitude, but he’s extremely loyal to the walkers and the few people close to him. He’s not a man to go against orders, being very by the books, though he’ll grumble and complain through the whole process. [b]Appearance[/b]: [img]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/14/ff/83/14ff83c869a92cd85f2dcbf6749f56fd.jpg[/img] Not my image! [img]https://i.imgur.com/G7leTsp.png[/img] My image! [b]Likes/Strengths[/b]: Solomon has a lot of combat smarts, physical as well as tactical. Because he's not particularly strong compared to his peers, he prefers fighting smart, never brute-forcing a situation (defensive fighter), but he does have good stamina and precise, if not particularly quick, movements. He's perceptive, picking up on body language and small, often overlooked details. He likes solitude, a good book, and cats. [b]Dislikes/Weaknesses[/b]: Solomon's... not the best people person. To put it nicely, he often rubs people the wrong way. To put it harshly, he has the tact of a wild boar. He doesn't work well with a team. Dislikes small-talk. Dislikes incompetence/stupidity. Hates Collecting, would refuse if he had any say in the matter, but he’s good at it, so they keep sending him. [b]Backstory[/b]: Doesn't talk about it. Doesn't talk about himself at all, really, but people say he was taken in as a Pupil at 15. [b]Other[/b]: He has a worn, antique coin that he carries with him, and he’ll often be seen twisting it absentmindedly in his hand.

@dragonfly

You are accepted! Looks like you’re my Collector!

Now to answer some of your questions. The Walkers are a top secret society that normal humans have known about for centuries but never really pursued them. They are excellent architects and have the ability to connect with and control drones. These droids can scan buildings and basically create them from nothing. That’s as much as ordinary people know, but more will be revealed.

That was what the Walkers role in society was, on to the Collectors. The Collectors are chosen by the Master, who is the leader of the Walkers, to find teens who have the Power to connect with drones. They carry a special device that leads them to an already selected Pupil, so it basically chooses who gets who. If the guardian of the potential Pupil allows for the Collector to take them, the Collector gives the same device to the Pupil, now under their protection, which will lead them to their drone. The saying is that, “You don’t choose it, it chooses you.” Once the Pupil has “bonded” with their drone, it’s the Collector’s job to successfully get the Pupil to the Capital where they will be trained to fully become a Walker. The drones are often found in piles that have chosen Pupils, so Collectors and Pupils have another reason besides gangs hunting them to come together.

Pupils are often chosen between the ages 15 to around 19. That’s when their power begins to surface and is where they need to be trained, or their power will either vanish or cause their bodies to “overdrive” and slowly waste away. Collectors are between the ages 25 to 35. If they’re to young or to old, they risk their missions with either their inexperience or their age.

Collectors are just Walkers who have been chosen to find children. Some of them may be more in touch with their drones or have enhanced strength and speed. This type of Walker is rare though so they aren’t seen often. They are also highly prized by gangs or other people who might take advantage of their powers, so they may not be given a mission to increase the chance that the Pupil will go unnoticed.

That’s all the lore I’m willing to give out right now, but I may give you guys some more later on ;). If you want to see what the drones look like and what the Walkers typically wear, out check out Alan Walker’s music videos! They are what inspired me to create this RP and his music is AWESOME!

Yeah! I listen to a few of his songs, never seen the music videos though. I'll have to take a look.

Thanks for answering my questions! I have ooooooone-ish more for now if that's alright XD I'm guessing Collectors/Walkers would need to be good at some sort of combat (physical combat and/or using their drone ability as combat?), right? Since they need to get Pupils places safely, Collectors/Walkers would need to be able to protect the Pupils and themselves from various threats like the gangs you mentioned.

Yes! Collectors need to have mastered many different forms of martial arts and be skilled with weapons like knifes and pistols to be qualified to become a Collector. Their drones don’t have weapons, but they can be used by the highly skilled to create obstacles like walls and shelter in emergencies.

Are drones robots, or animals? idk its probably a stupid question,

Just making a quick reference for the characters so that I don’t have to flip through every page to find them
