hey there. obviously i'm new to the scene here, or maybe i'm really not, but that doesn't matter. i'm really just itching to roleplay again. i've been out of the game for a bit, but i promise you, i can write. if you really want one, i can provide a writing sample.
a few things to know: - i have a life and i like to do things. i won't be super active. expect at least two replies a week. - i write at least 800+ words per reply. i'll be pissed if you can't match that and claim you can. - i prefer to roleplay male characters over female, for whatever reason. - i get pretty invested in plots and characters, so expect wordbuilding outside of the roleplay.
so, yeah. spies. i really like the idea of something espionage and crime related. i want some good angst and drama and action between these characters (multiple characters may be included as well--i'm open to it, honestly it'll probably be essential for the plot to get going anyway). i want secret organizations and ghosts and people on the run from their governments. i want a global mission. i want insanely high stakes and near-impossible odds. and i want two very capable people teaming up. i've got a character in mind that i want to try out for this, but i'll wait for people to bite before i go out and divulge any more about him.

i haven't necessarily done something like this before, either, so no worries. i've been a part of group roleplays similar to this in the past, but for whatever reason they never went anywhere. i'm hoping this can be more of a long-term thing ok, that sounds all good. since my guy is a brand-new character, i really have to flesh him out some more (all i've got at the moment is a vague personality and faceclaim, no history or anything like that just yet)
plot-wise, do you have any concepts or ideas you're particularly interested in? i'm open to any of your suggestions. obviously there's a lot of angles we can take, but i've got a few thoughts myself. perhaps one of those secret/nonexistent agencies has to team up with a reputable nation's intelligence agency (immediately causing some tension/distrust between them) to stop some criminal/organization/calamity from happening? i know it's vague, but. all i got right now.

so i very briefly whipped up this dossier-esque reference for my guy, based off a template i found online for these sorts of things. basically, he's a special agent that works particularly in foreign affairs and antiterrorism. and he would have gone to graduate school if he wasn't recruited by the cia right after he graduated from college. i didn't include much his personality or much backstory since it didn't seem appropriate for a document like this. still though, you can kind of discern bits and pieces of it. i'm planning on making him a very subtly cocky and sarcastic with a dark sense of humor, just in case it helps with your character creation. he's fiercely self-reliant as well. even if he does enjoy the company of others to an extent, he hates getting instruction from people he thinks are his equals/inferiors. anyway. without any further ado,
Central Intelligence Agency Washington, District of Columbia, U.S.A. CLASSIFIED. Some non-essential information has been redacted for the agent's privacy and safety.
Name: August Jude DeckerAliases: Hammer DOB: 11/11/1984 (34 years old) Height: 6'2" Weight: 215 lbs Relationship status: ████████ (████ ███████) Sexuality: ████████ Hair: Dark brown, wavy texture. Cut short, low-effort style. Eyes: Deep blue. 20/20 vision, unaided by lenses. Build: True mesomorph with a healthy balance of toned muscle and necessary body fat. In excellent physical shape. Distinguishing traits: Broad shoulders, facial hair. Fading scars from ████ on chest and back. Nation of origin: United States of America Location of origin: ████████, ██████ Education: Bachelor's degree in International Relations and Sociology from the University of Pennsylvania. Graduated magna **** laude. Languages: English, Spanish, French, German. Can only speak Mandarin. Combat: Kickboxing. Notably prefers melee methods of fighting. Well-versed with many firearms. Assessment: One of the best and most reliable agents the CIA has. Particularly skilled in handling difficult situations. The name "Hammer" is derived from his personal style in handling business. He typically is not very concerned with collateral damage and will not usually make a calculated effort to avoid it. This would only be problematic if his mission success rate wasn't so high (a stunning 96%). He prefers to work alone as opposed to working in a team. Although he appears to be a model agent with few personal issues, he has struggled with ██████ addiction and ████████ in the past, both of which have been resolved with psychiatric help according to our latest knowledge.

m interested, would u prefer to talk about the deets here or in pm in order to not crowd up this thread too much? also, I'm not too fond of rping female characters myself and I do have some preestablished spy bois, so I thought that'd be worth mentioning as well. besides, I have a lot of spy related missions made up though it'll also depend on what time period we're going to be working with. either way, I'm down to plot
just wanted to ask if ur on a spy kick due to The Man From U.N.C.L.E. because Henry Cavil and the alias "Hammer" gave me a good laugh

inky cool, cool. i bet she's a great character and i can't wait to see her. that idea is solid, too. there's a lot of different directions we can take it. would you mind sending me a private message so we can talk it over some more there? we sure do have a lot of plotting to do, heh
L’Éᴛʀᴀɴɢᴇʀ hey there. uhm, i don't have much of a preference, but feel free to send me a message if you'd rather do that. oh i'm glad you've got some pre-established ideas! i was really just caught up in the feeling of this roleplay. i'm also open to some different time periods, too. please send those my way! also i haven't even seen the man from u.n.c.l.e., so that's super awkward and coincidental if i unintentionally ripped a lot of stuff from it, yikes

Okie dokie man, I'll send u a pm asap And nah! It's nothing, it's just funny is all because the male leads for the film is Henry Cavil and Armie Hammer and that made me laugh. It's actually funnier now that I know it's completely unintentional
