Heist of a Lifetime(closed)

[MetalSonic 86]

Somewhere in the arctic, there resides a small research facility known as Arkaden. Founded nearly a century ago, it is the number one resource in the research of the supernatural. This base is home to creatures that defy human understanding, ranging from being indestructible to any kind of weaponry to ones that possess reality warping powers that have to be kept under strict monitoring. In addition, deep underneath the surface, there is a treasure trove of magical items, the one of interest to the Client being the Gauntlet of Spirits, a gauntlet that can grant immortality to its wielder. Unfortunately, the Client doesn't have the necessary manpower to acquire his desired treasure as a mercenary group called the Graycloaks are tasked with Arkaden's security. This is where you come in. 

As renowned crime lords, you've been commissioned by a mysterious client to break into Arkaden and get the Gauntlet of Spirits to him as quickly as possible. In exchange for your service, your employer has promised to reward you handsomely with enough money to guarantee lifetimes of pleasure. Of course, anything else you happen to find along the way is yours for the taking. Only the Gauntlet is of importance to your employer.

Plot summary

Spoiler

A simple description for a simple premise, this is a heist RP. A small team of renowned criminals are brought together by a shared contract with an unknown employer who wants you to break into a secure research facility to steal a magic gauntlet that can grant its wielder practical immortality. The RP will have a three act structure with the first act being the heist, the second being the journey to the client, and the third being a finale to be introduced when we get there.  I'm hoping for at least 4 other members to join.

The Graycloaks

Spoiler

The Graycloaks are a mercenary group local to the arctic area. As the name suggests, the members can be identified by the gray cloaks they wear. Numbering in 250 strong, this private army is most known for their remarkable loyalty and pain resistance. In addition, they seem to possess a resistance to mind control and forms of possession, which makes them more ideal for Arkaden's interests, given the nature of what they guard. Once on the job, the only thing that can break their loyalty is the contract expiring, which may be soon.

Supernatural abilities

Spoiler

Yes, supernatural abilities will be allowed, except for teleportation or and time manipulation. As long as they can be reasonably used without breaking the narrative, I don't see any reason to have a resource system to limit usage.

I never watched supernatural, but I think that this is an interesting premise for an interesting rp.

I meant the genre supernatural, not the show. I forgot that there even was a show by that name.

Then on that note, I am even more interested in this!

While I have an app up, I will be creating a short history of Arkaden before officially opening this.

Since no interest, this RP is now closed.
