THE CLICHES

It's the year 2015 (yes, there wasn't any Apocalypse in 2012. Now you can shut up about it). In the underground of America, contract killings are a booming business. The agencies that control these killers are as cold, calculating and brutal as the men and women who work for them. Except for one agency.

Welcome to The Cliches, the most average contract killing agency in the underground. Mister Bigg is your employer; the very definition of 'boss': nice tuxedo and always puffin' away on a Cuban cigar. Sitting behind an oak desk he directs your actions, namely, who is the next target for you to rid the world of. The Cliches has been around for years now, it's a well known name and it is on it's way to the top of the pile. And, of course, rival agencies have taking note.

You are a contract killer. You and your 'closest' associates are the best of the best in The Cliches, and thus Mister Bigg calls on you most often to do the killings. But not everyone is who they seem here...

It seems a mole has been leaking information to an enemy agency. Jobs are being compromised, and identities are being discovered. Since you are the best of the best it's up to you to find the mole and stop them, and take down whatever agency placed the mole in your midst. Are you up for the challenge?

***

Awright, allmixedup and I were working on this earlier, and we decided that too many SB's try too hard to be original and not follow cliche's. Well, we decided to change that!

In this story, we want as many cliche's as possible while still having a moving and original plot. How is that gonna work? We have no clue. But it's nice to try new things, eh?


Some character cliche's we've come up with to give you a headstart:
Jock
Geek
Loser
etc, etc.


Spots to claim:

The Cliches
1. GrantBlayfur: Greyson, The 'Normal' One
2. allmixedup: Katya, the Drama Queen
3. LavenderBlue: Ismene, the Nerd
4. --Open Spot--
5. ReisePiecey: Ridic, the Cool One Mole, leaks info to Excaibur's Bullet!
6. Kaywiia: Parker Marie Campbell, the Tomboy
7. Maddox Patt: Apache Mode, the Geek/Hacker
The Cliches agency is closed to new members until we get some villains!

Excaibur's Bullet, the Rival Agency
1. ultraviolet: Kree, the Ninja/Killer
2. Dr. Jamie Bondage: Brian Copenhagen, the Emo/Scene Dude
3.
4.
5.


Character Profiles

Code: Select all
Name:

Gender:

Age (any age, but keep it believable.):

Agency (The Cliches, or the 'Rival Agency):

Cliche (prep, jock, nerd, etc.):

Personality:

Appearance (Description and/or picture. No scene models):

Favorite style (poisons, seduction, sniper etc.)?:

Up for love?:

Other:


Rules:

-For now, writer's are allowed ONE character. If we don't get enough reception, we will increase the limit as necessary.
-Swearing is allowed, as long as it isn't in excess. Same rule as almost every other SB out there.
-Romance/relationships are allowed.
-Sex scenes are allowed, but keep out the graphic details. Best thing to do is have the characters go off and do there thing, then cut to later so we can continue with the story.
-ALL posts must be at least 550 characters. Don't ask why 550. That number is cooler than you.
-ALL posts must use correct grammer, sentence structure, etc. This site is to help you better your writing, so you might as well work at it, eh?
-NO God-moding.
-NO super characters. That includes super powers, 'special' abilities, etc. These are supposed to be generic characters that could fit in in the real world.
-Timestamp your posts in this fashion: Name of character, location, date, time. Example: "Greyson, Secret Underground Super Lair, August 24th, Morning"
-Finally, PM me and the creator of a character before you kill that writer's character. If you don't, we will ask you to remove your post and we will continue the story as if the character had never perished. It's no fun to die suddenly in the middle of a SB.
-ALL normal YWS/SB rules apply.

Urgh.... I'll join. v.v

Name: Zae

Gender: female

Age: 19

Agency: Cliches.

Cliche: Loner

Personality: Haunting, violent, quick, and soft spoken. She doesn't hesitate to speak her thoughts, but they're almost whispered. Has been named Shadow Girl because of her ability to seemingly melt away into the shadows, disappear, flow through her movements seamlessly. Won't shower you with affection, even if you're her best friend. Which you aren't. Because she's a loner.

Appearance: Wears a gray beanie.

Spoiler! :
Image


Favorite style: Good with guns, knives, and extreeeemely stealthy.

Up for love?: I wish you luck, good sir. (And that's a yes.)

Other: Great aim.

Name: Ismene

Gender: Female

Age: 22

Cliche: Nerd (specifically a know-it-all)

Agency: The Cliches

Personality: Ismene likes to correct people, and, if they happen to be right, contradict them (debate it), even if she knows it's wrong. For Ismene, other people come before herself and she likes helping them out, though she needs to be constantly reminded by others to at least give herself a little attention. Ismene can be a little vague at times, for example if someone asked her if she liked starfruit, she might just say yes/no without explaining her reasoning. But when the question involves life or death, Ismene can be very helpful in planning.

Appearance: Being less than interested in her appearance/herself, Ismene's wild curly hair is usually unbrushed and in a ponytail or let loose. Her eyes are those depicted in the photo (chocolate brown).
Spoiler! :
Image



Favorite style?: Seduction and then leading them to a pool (drowning), busy highway (car crash) etc etc.

Up for love?: Yes, though she is picky.... XD

Other: Admiring knowledge and her greek ancestry, Ismene has a tattoo of the all-seeing eye on her left ankle, facing outwards.

Name: Parker Maire Campbell

Gender: Female

Age (any age, but keep it believable.): 17

Agency: the cliches

Cliche (prep, jock, nerd, etc.): Tomboy

Personality: She's an out and out tough girl. She hates preppy cheerleaders, and can't stand anything related to them (i.e. the color pink, small purse dogs). She doesn't really make plans, and prefers to go on instinct. She makes spur-of-the-moment decisions. She is very outspoken, and just says whatever she wants. She doesn't really plan ahead, and takes things day by day. She is very blunt. Most people don't challenge her unless they want a fight. She is very defensive, and hates people who tell her girls can't do guys stuff. She loves to skateboard, and also plays the electric guitar.

Appearance (Description and/or picture. No scene models): She as straight brown hair down past her shoulders, and her face has very defined features. She doesn't really smile a lot. She has a medium build. She is of average height, at 5'7'', and is considered muscular as girls go. She wears baggy pants and a tank top a lot. She only owns sneakers; any other shoes, in her opinion, are totally useless.

Spoiler! :
Image


Favorite style (poisons, seduction, sniper etc.)?: hand to hand combat, or using a gun. She prefers hand to hand.

Up for love?: Maybe

Other: Her theme song would be So What.(It's what I listened to making her profile)

Her Skateboard:

I have a few questions: One, are the rival agency people cliches, or just regular assassins? Two, If they are regular, How exactly would you define a "normal assassin"? I would've posted these in the DT, but there isn't one.

Oh, and if I did make a character, would I get to name the agency?
