OOC: Have an idea... curious if anyone would want to play it

[carini]

OK. Who here has sene the movie "The Usual Suspect"
I love this movie and think it has space to role play in... You could be a character from the movie (Verbal Kint and Keyser Soze excluded... the are just names to drop and character to interact but not actually be any one person) or you can make new character.

Anyone Intersted?

 

[carini]

ok guessit was a dumb idea... but i'm not gonna close it yet... just incase maybe thre is one person out there that things the usual suspects is as cool as i do

 

[Morgoth]

Hey, could you tell me what the usual suspect is? Then I'll join in.

 

[carini]

It's a movie about 5 criminals caught up in a really really bad situation.. the movie it;s self if just a jump off ponit i feel... the reason the criminals get to where they end up is out of fear of "the ultimate" criminal, Keyser Soze. He;s so good that some don;t even beleive he actually exsists.. if you haven;t seen the movie.. go rent it.. it rocks


the reson i thought of rol playing this was i actually wrote story for a fan message board based on the movie but never had a chance to finish it.. just love the characters and Keyser Soze

[Morgoth]

Ok. Sounds good. If you tell me the criminals, I'll pick one and start.

 

[codeseeker]

I love that movie. I'd also like to play but as you can see from my tag I'm still a virgin (correction I've been upgraded to experienced) and don't know exactly what to do. I'd love to join in though if you could get me up to speed though.

 

[carini]

Ok.. Morgoth. if you haven;t seen the movie yet (or even for a whhile.. check it out again... )I want you to be McManus ... (this all takes place pre movie BTW

codeseeker... nothing has started yet.. just laying the ground work.. but think of a character you;d like to be eithre from the movie or not and let us know ok

(Can;t be Keyser or Verbal though.. they are just fair game background characters)

 

[codeseeker]

Give me a shout when you're ready. I'll rent the movie this weekend and tell you after. I think I want to be the character Baldwin played though. More to my kind of personality. I can't remember his name though.

 

[carini]

That's McManus... which.. sorry but screams Morgoth.... Unless Morgoth want to be someone else... or make one up

 

[codeseeker]

Margoth fits the profile that well eh?
Okay I'll see what I can do and get back to ya after I see the movie again.

 

[carini]

OK (may i suggest Redfoot... a 2 dementional character in the movie.. so plenty of room to grow)

 

[Morgoth]

No it's fine, you can be that dude. I'll be a criminal named John "No Remorse" Thompson. Once thrown into jail for killing 20 people, at different times. Once for life, he's escaped with the others.

 

[carini]

That's cool... My character is named Jules Dixon .. she's a logistics expert. If you got a heist to plan Jules is the one to call.. I'll give a full character description later

 

[Morgoth]

Very good. Now, when should we start?

 

[carini]

i should start it prolly next week.. i gotta watch the movie again then write the begingin whch will be a long one

 

[Morgoth]

It's fine, I can wait.

 

[codeseeker]

Hey folks I've run into a little snag.
I had a major system crash and I have to rebuild.
I won't be able to play until I get everything fixed though I still want to play.
I've worked out a character that should work out ok.
I will be Demitri Kopalov. A hit man from the old country that's been looking for Keyser. I'm sure I'll have a run in with him soon.
Does that sound good to you?

 

[carini]

sounds great...hope everythings working for you smoothly soon
