Suddenly I notice that Toasterman is not going to have trouble varying their characters based upon type of combat, but type of weapon! Several people are expressing interest in guns.

You're forgetting one thing. Guns need ammo, and unless you have a box of it strapped to you, you're going to run out. Fast. :)

This looks really cool, I'd love to be a part of it although I don't know anything about the manga.

Anyways, could my character be a German soldier from the First World War?

If that's ok I'll have a sheet up as soon as I possibly can.
Sure, go for it. It may add a bit of tension as well, what with a British WWI pilot in the mix as well.

Oh! A note, as Jav3lin has said correctly, that guns do indeed need ammo, so the people with guns may be powerhouses in the start, but they will struggle later on. At least until other Drifters enter the scene.

I know this may sounda bit odd, But would it be acceptable for be to RP as Alfred Nobel? He was a Chemist, engineer, innovator, armaments manufacturer and inventor, the man invented dynamite!

I picture a slightly forgetfull but competent older gentleman how can just break into houses with little effort but tries to solves problems in over gandious but problematic ways.

For all in tensive pourposes we'll call him a thief/demoman with a cane sword.

Unless battles can be won with wit

that puts serious considerations on my character.

I ain't forgot 'bout that. I got 'nuff supplies in my ruck to keep me in ammo for a while, but I ain't afraid to go toe to toe if I need to.

Foolish girl, to not use guns when your enemies do is a damn good way to get yourself killed.

Presuming the era and location we find ourselves in has adequate amounts of things such as sulfur, glycerin, saleen and other compounds which may or may not have been discovered.

We'll see about that when you've ran out of ammo and you need a troll eviscerating with honorable fury.

Anyways, I can see our characters are going to be great friends XD

Name: Markus Schneider
Age: 19 (Born 1897)
Gender: Male
Warrior Race: Soldier
Appearance: Markus wears the standard uniform of all German soldiers of that time, however it is quite strangely constantly covered with mud and dirt, as well as a few bloodstains which despite his best efforts he has been able to get rid of.
He believes that he is somehow cursed with this constant reminder of his experiences in the war in the afterlife.
Personality: Markus is a kind and gentle person by nature, but the horrors he has endured have dulled his personality somewhat, and he is fairly sullen and withdrawn.
He does not particularly care about anything anymore, and only wishes he could go home.
Weapons: Gewehr 98 bolt action rifle with bayonet.
Period of Origin: First World War era Germany
Background:
Markus was one of the many boys captivated with the idea of fighting in World War One and seeking adventure. He joined the army early in the conflict, and when sent into combat he soon discovered that the grand ideals of adventure and prestige were entirely untrue, and that the only truth of the Western Front was that of the horrors of war.
He fought in several major battles such as Verdun and the Somme, along with many other others and was injured three times.
By late 1916 the war had taken its toll on him. His friends which he had joined the army with and fought alongside were long dead, he felt extreme regret for the French and English soldiers he had killed.
He eventually lost all hope of surviving and had ultimately lost his will to live.

In August, Markus was attempting to get to sleep in a trench when he saw a colourful bird just outside, the only sign of movement in an otherwise dead landscape.
He moved up to get a better look until it flew away from the trench.
With no thought for his personal safety Markus went after it, he wandered into the fog of No Mans Land and was never seen again.

Okie doke, hope that does it.

Lemme know if I need to change anything.

Ha, you just make sure that John in his desperation doesn't touch Myumi's Katana, or bow, because if you do, you had better be prepared for an unprecedented level of 'Psycho *****' to be unleashed.

@JAv3lin: Yeah it has mate, actually that reminds me, I was going to PM you about something.

Judging from the number of characters from a similar era as myself, I'm sure I'll manage. Phwew, I was worried that I was going to be some imbecile with a gun with seven other people with swords.
