Steam...
It powers everything in this city our cars, elevators, phones, music players, toasters and even our guns. Everyone seems pretty content with their lives here except for the select few. These people believe they are gifted in such a way that they don't have to respect the way we live our lives but all they do is cause more pain than they stop. But these people do come in useful sometimes like when a mechanical steam-powered robot malfunctions (no-ones sure how this happens the minority think its magic) they come along and destroy them and everyone goes "yay". So who are you? What do YOU want? And what IS your purpose?


This Roleplay is a social roleplay with combat elements dealing for the guncrazy css nuts to the luvvie duvvies who just like hardcore roleplaying and like to chat to people (by hardcore I mean die hard you dirty dirty perv)

Username: PartingGift
Character name: Gustav Sedriech
Bio: A man of five-and-twenty years, Gustav was born in the country of Karststaat. When he was old enough, his mother left the country with him to live with relatives in Sanctus. The journey to Sanctus was on one of the very first airliners to be built. Essentially a large balloon filled with lighter than air gases, the ship was propelled by steam power. On the journey, Gustav quizzed and quizzed the pilots about the ship, about navigation, about practically everything, and the pilots were humoured by this inquisitive boy of two-and-ten years.

Many years after moving to Sanctus, Gustav made his home in Fumotropolis, and took hold of a dream. Having secured enough money to do so, he purchased a small airliner, barely able to carry ten people and their luggage. However, rumours of a fearless pilot and navigational skills that had to be seen to be belived spread, and eventually, Gustav was innundated with business. Seven years on, Gustav now flies a new type of airliner, a steam-powered plane, capable of carrying sixty passengers at high speed, without the need for a floatation balloon. Christened the Falke MkI, it came out of the HimmelHersteller workshops in Karstaat, and is the first of its kind, a true revolution in the world of airliners. [

When he is not flying, he is regulary seen on the streets of Fumotropolis, whether it be visiting Tomkuron Hellsing's parts shop for those all important maintenance parts and jovial banter, or frequenting bookstores.

Appearance: Around six foot two, Gustav's facial profile is hawkish, which is rather at odds with the smile that is nearly always on his face. His hair is a sandy-brown, side-parted and slightly long, accompianed by a muttonchop beard blending into a handlebar moustache.

His clothes are often a white shirt, with cream-coloured pinstripe trousers and waistcoat. A pocketwatch is always secured in a pocket of his waistcoat. A man of quite a clean appearance, except on days when its maintenance time on the Falke.

Powers: People say his skills at navigation and his fearless piloting are unnatural.

Weapons: Only a flip-knife which is often on his person.
Pets: A pet monkey by the name of Dieb. The fact that he even has one is proof of his flying skills, as they are extremely rare to see. When asked how he got it once, he replied, "I felt like flying south one afternoon."
Afilliations: Often talks to Tomkuron Hellsing, as he purchases parts from his shop.

Username: Red Phoenix48
Character name: Dentrag Ghulurak
Bio: Dentrag was always odd. His style changed over a matter of days, from flamboyant to bland. He discovered the extent of being able to change yourself to altering his physical form. He is also fascinated with lightning, believing it to be a better source of power than steam, which causes people to think of him as crazy.
Appearance: With the shapeshifting nature of his abilities, it is hard to fix him with any one form. However, every form has several things in common; Pale white eyes with tiny pupils, white fingertips, and a belt adorned with small buckles, bells, and other things. It also contains small pouches with tools and wire inside.
Powers: Electricity summoning and manipulation, Decently skilled with mechanics, Inventive.
Weapons; A piece of corded, high tension steel cable, serrated into a whip-like weapon that can be charged with electricity, Coilgun Pistol.
Pets: None that you know of.
Afilliations: None.. Yet..
Other: None.

Username: labryna

Character name: Erin Fen

Bio: Erin's single Dad was a successful inventor, and he did his best to teach Erin his trade. But one day, when she was 17, an experimental engine literally blew up in his face, killing him. In that moment of terror her telepathy was kick started and she felt her dad's fear and pain as if it were happening to her. She never told anyone this however, fearing people would lable her crazy, so while others empathized with her loss, they never knew the true depths of her pain. Swearing then that she would make the world a safe place for everyone, she does everything in her power to protect others.

Appearance: Erin's body has a somewhat slight, but athletic build. She rellies on quick wits and dexterity to overcome obstacles. Her hair is very light bordering on blonde, but she keeps it short so that it stays out of her face. Not really caring about the latest fasions, Erin wears everything from simple blue-jeans to long skirts, from T-shirts to dresses. The part of her most people remember however are her eyes. The tragedy and subsequent vow in her past have left her with a strong determination that shows in her eyes, which are rarely relaxed and always calculating.

Powers: minor telepathy, and some control over air and water (unrealized)

Weapons: Steam-powered crossbow from her father. Erin's invented several "trick" arrows utilizing steam pressure to create and launch grenades, and rotation to turn saw blades on the heads of arrows. Among other tricks.

Pets: N/A

Afilliations: Connections and favors in the ST&T company(Steam Travel and Technology). Has worked for them in the past on certain "questionable" assignments. Public knowledge is that she's a supplier of parts and can find almost anything.

Staring at the bleak clouds above, his face lit dimly by the glowing gauges in the cockpit, Gustav sank back into his pilots chair. Tapping one of the dials repeatedly, he eventually pulled out a small notebook from his waistcoat.

'Steam pressure low when engine is in operation. Piston seals?', he wrote down, and as always whenever something had needed repairing on any of his past airliners, he wished he knew more about the mechanical side of things. Basic maintenance he can do himself, but when it comes to the myriad of possible causes for low steam pressure, well, that was quite out of his depth.

Putting the notebook back into its respective pocket, he pulled a lever which would empty the furnace of its current fuel. No point in keeping it burning, his next charters were in two days time. Sitting in the cockpit, he watched the various gauges, and listened as the engine eventually stopped operating. Turning off all auxilary systems, he opened the door, and clambered out of the cockpit, seeing the face of his boilerman, Harker Kynes.

"You need me still?", Harker asked of Gustav.

"No Harker, thank you for coming out at such short notice. My suspicions were correct. Low steam pressure when raising the power output. My guess is that it's seals letting steam out, but I cannot be certain."

"I bet that'll be a bit expensive to fix, right in the guts of the thing. Still," and Harker glanced admiringly at the sleek, rivetted steel skin of the airliner, "it's a beauiful piece of machinery alright."

"That it is, Harker. Anyhow, I best be off. Time to pay a visit to Tomkuron."

"Aye, take care sir."

The two men both set off their respective ways, descending from the elevated airfield high above the city, into the bustling metropolis.

Tomkuron was leaning on the counter reading "Fumo Times" the local newspaper. He was inside his shop of course and it was a pretty large one. It was filled with all manner of things; cogs, gears, nuts, bolts, tools, steam engines grade 1 (smallest one) but he kept the bigger more expensive parts in the back so only professionals could order them. Back there he kept; Steam engines Grade 5, Steam capcitors, Steam regulators and all manner of things. To put it bluntly the shop was more of a warehouse with a shop front.
He looked up from the paper into the dark gloom of the shop front and saw no customer.
"Business is quite slow today.." Mumbled tomkuron to himself.
He waited a while until a old hunchbacked man wobbled into the sotre. I was ol'Pete a regular customer he was as mad as a hatter but sharp as a knife. He spent most of his time inventing so had to keep making visits regulary for parts.
"Ah! Pete what can I do for you today?" asked Tomkuron nicely, "we got some of them New Mcintyre 1900 steam capacitors in they say they work 70% more efficiently!"
"Weeell that would be nice but all I need today is a grade 4 axel and some grease Heeh hah heh!" cackled ol' Pete.
Tomkuron went over to the shelves picked up the grease and headed into the warehouse to fetch the grade 4 axel. He went back to the shopfront to find Pete had pulled in his trolley to carry it all. Tomkuron unloaded onto the trolley and said, " That will be 10 pounds and 5 shillings pete"
Pete handed over the money and said, "One of those fancy flying machines are landing today wouldn't mind having one of those."
"Oh really?" replied Tomkuron interested.
"Yup, Goodbye" said pete hobbling off with trolley in tow. Tomkuron walked out the front door and looked up shielding his eyes from the sun and spotted it.
"Well looks like and old friend has come to visit" Said tomkuron to himself.
