You remember when you were younger and all your friends had Nintendos? And when you asked for a NES for your birthday, your mom said THAT WILL ROT YOUR BRAIN! and got you books about nature or whatever instead?
Well none of that matters anymore, because the role I have for you will negate any past disappointment you've ever had.
This role is like finding that last box of Thin Mints in the back of your cupboard loooong after it's Girl Scout Cookie time of year.
THE BASICS!
- This IS a family role with a preference toward the character being a brother, though it's by no means required.
- This IS a tribal-origin role, however your character does not have to still be a 'tribal' character (little too IC for more on this, PM with questions).
- There are NO restrictions on guild save for no Nilazis.
- Your character must be at least twenty-four years old for IC reasons.
- I'm open to inviting more than one person to join up, totally.
- Sorry, humans only.
- The character of mine you'll be interacting with already exists; we won't be building new characters together. I realise now that I didn't spell that out too clearly. Whoops!
THE BENEFITS!
- Your character's background tribe has a fully fleshed-out set of documentation, a detailed culture, and even an extensive VNPC history timeline!
- If you don't like the documentation, your character can ignore it at will! Although mine might not appreciate it.
- Should your character find he or she wants it, there is an opportunity for coded clanship down the road.
- You can play anywhere you damn well please, and our PCs never have to even meet or interact. If you've always wanted to play a tribal-background character but don't like the hard-coded tribes and can't be assed to write your own, feel free to use mine!
- Playing WITH me, however, is fucking awesome and you'll hate yourself if you don't.
As always, PM for more information.
Edit: Thanks for all the responses so far; OP updated with more info.
Playing with Fathi does rock your socks off. Even if you wear sandals.
I'm serious. Socks will manifest onto your feet, and then be rocked off.
Sounds interesting........mmmmm
Echoing Cola's sentiments. Fathi is the tits, and if I weren't neck deep into playing my undead nilazi halfling merchant, I'd jump all over this.
Yea bad timing Fathi! Unfortunately I'm still in love with current PC or I'd be all over this.

She's not lying. If I wasn't staff, I'd hop all over this role in a heartbeat, but it's too juicy and would require waaaay too much time that I already don't have.
And if Shal did jump on it and play it, I'd just kill his character, assume the identity, and play it myself.

I must echo, such a statement of the truth...

Disclaimer: Don't play with Fathi if you're not interesting in
long-lived character development. Also don't play with Fathi if you like playing with someone reliable, or getting involved in plots, or having the world come alive around you.
You have been warned.
I have to echo many peoples' sentiments and say that Fathi is awesome to play alongside. Unfortunately, I need to echo the other one about how my current character is far beyond fun and awesome, so I can't jump at this opportunity.
Fathi,
Why must you tempt me so?
You cruel, cruel bitch.
Love,
Shadow
FATHI IS ACCEPTING NO MORE APPLICANTS.
I AM RESERVING THIS ROLE.
KTHXBAI.
No but seriously, Fathi, as MoF has stated, is THE tits. The only set of tits. In all of Armageddon. Brilliant player.
[Insert fanboy rant here.]
what limited play i've done with fathi is my single worst experience in all of armageddon
you will regret this role
back me up ghost, am i right or am i right?
I heartily concur with OHST.

Your post had a few holes. I stitched them up though!
Warning: if you play with Fathi, you may have to play near/around me. Sometimes.

A rat-nest haired old doom sayer shouts, in panic-accented sirihish
"RUN FOR YAH' LIFE! THE END IS NEAR! BEG FOR -HIS- MERCY TO SAVE YAH!"
I just teasing...
And if you play with Fathi, you apparently never get to play with me, which is another bonus.

I think the only answer to this is that I have to hire you to PK Malken.
I wanted to do this role for a while but then other things came up.
I do not recommend unless you can tolerate high amounts of crazy-awesome, ass-kicking, and retarditry.
Also, despite what you may have seen on the GDB, the legs in Fathi's avatar are really those of her current character.

a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away ohst was good, nice guy that everybody loved from the bottom of their heart
then he met fathi
and ever since that day he wakes me up at nights crying rivers on the phone for how it sucks to be playing with fathi
true story
Quoteand ever since that day he wakes me up at nights crying rivers on the phone for how it sucks to be playing with fathi
That's because he wants her hot mud-body and it wasn't IC to hit on her.
Fathi = thumbs up. She gets Armaddict's seal of approval.
Every experience I've had role-playing with Fathi has been god-awful. I back up Ghost and OHST on this one.
Also, she has a smelly cunt.

We don't use -that- word in this house missy!!
Brandon
Smelly cunt indeed.
Seriously though, I'd jump on this if I wouldn't have to completely go against my current characters normal RP and commit suicide. In fact... I have yet to play any role...
In lieu of the fact that a few folks who have asked for more info/expressed interest have current characters that they don't want to store/suicide, I'd just like to point out that there wasn't meant to be a time limit on this or anything. It's ongoing at least until my character dies, although it's not like the background information wouldn't be viable without her.
After a PM I got recently, I guess I should clarify:
This role is for a currently existing character of mine; we will not be working on new concepts together. Sorry if I didn't make that clear enough.
OMG, if my character bites it, which seems unlikely, I know who I'll be PMing.

Same here. I had a lot of fun playing with Fathi before.
You guys won't be pming anybody if I kill her before she accepts anybody!
The PC or the person?
And if the PC...Just try to imagine somebody laughing at you like a linebacker would laugh at a 5 years old trying to beat him up.
Don't dare me! The sandstorms will never end!
the player
who cares about the pc?
Meh, in thinking over the matter, I'm betting the player is nearly as dangerouse as her PC...She is in texas, Thats how many guns per square foot of house?
Texas has a 1sqft:1 gun ratio. If the inspector comes by and doesn't trip over your guns while walking through your house, you are deported to California.
Where's that blushy-face smiley when you need it?
Thanks for all the support and kind words, everyone. This is still ongoing, just so you know.
Also, yes, I do own several guns.
Totally want to play with Fathi sometime! 8)
Everyone should play with Fathi sometime. Also, everyone should play in the Byn. Once upon a time you used to be able to do both those things at the same time; but alas, no more.
I remember that time.
Hot damn was that fun.
you should quote that one more time i did not get it
UPDATED UPDATED UPDATED UPDATED omg omg omg omg.
Yeah, so. The computer I had some of my Awesome Docs saved on went kaput for a while, but the Awesome Docs are back in my possession now. I have forgotten the names of some people who expressed interest, I'm sure, and I have a horrible habit of clearing out my PM box, so I figured I would bump this topic freshly so those who were interested and still might be have a chance to finally see the notes.
I've got one family member lined up who's sure to be just as Awesome as the documentation, but I'd still love a brother or two!
Thanks to everybody who expressed interest and said nice things except OHST and Biscuits because they have dick-shaped fingers and that's not cool.
(Note: I am severely medicated at the moment and any/all PM responses from me may or may not be coherent compared to previous communications. I regret nothing but apologise in advance.)

Best disclaimer ever.
I'm in the process of going through the last of my PMs now--those of you who have responded quickly or been patient enough bear with me, I appreciate it.
I empty my PM box a bit too sporadically sometimes, so if you expressed interest and I never replied to you at all, feel free to prod me again.
Some of your concepts have been really neat and spirited and definitely not the sort of thing I was expecting from such a generic role niche--I look forward to seeing some of them in action!
