The ARK



You awake, naked, on the shore of a strange beach, with a diamond-shaped metal implant. Upon closer inspection, it releases a holographic UI to manage your inventory and biological stats like health, energy, hunger, and hydration.

You have no idea how you got here, but that isn't the strangest thing about the island. Just looking at the beach you landed on you can see one thing that is out of place: dinosaurs. They seem just as lost as you, noticing the large reptiles living side by side with the animals that filled their throne: large mammals.

Info!


- Rp Thread!
- Chat thread
- HEAVILY BASED ON ARK: Survival Evolved
(if you haven't played it, you can pick up whats going on fairly quickly)
- Your character can be from any timeperiod. The dinos here have larger gaps between them than human history, so why not?
- You can tame most of the creatures here! The exceptions being invertebrates like trilobites or nautiluses.
- Local fauna and growable plants and berries
- LD's rules apply!
- You can form tribes of people! RP-wise, there is a limit to how many dinosaurs you can manage by yourself, having more people means more hands for more dinos.
- ARK's main point of frustration is that danger comes out suddenly and usually with no warning, decimating everything within a few minutes.

"I must have ice in my veins to do what I do. I expected the ice to melt, but it didn’t… It just gets colder and colder… And I welcome it.”

Name:

Hunter
[Last Name Unknown. ]

Age:
20 years, 1 month

Gender:
Male

Appearance:
Picture Above! <3 || Source

A handsome male with brown hair, a light/almost fully-shaved beard (look at pic), and intimidating yet captivating green eyes. Hunter stands at 6 foot 1 with a weight of 190 pounds, a good bit of it muscle, also having a large amount of strength. Hunter is a very strong [/muscular] man with visible, stone-hard muscles, earned from violent and rather aggressive training (from his father+on the force/by himself). As is common for most on the police force, Hunter has a good amount of scars, but not all are significant; He has one on his chin and his left wrist (his POV), both from a knife (in the same fight). He also has a long one across the right side of his torso and another long one down his right arm (his POV).

[ Significant: Muscular - 6'2'' - 190 pounds ]

Personality:
Hunter is the most stubborn person on the planet. As stubborn as an ox, if you will. He would never back down from a fight- ever. When asked about something he would rather keep to himself, the man simply lies, instead of deflecting the question or not responding; he's able to keep a straight, poker face when lying.
Hunter is a very violent and courageous man; he is fearless, which can be bad at times (a lot), as he'll take on any opponent and rush into a fight, though he is a strong person. His ego is easily damaged. He'll be the first to jump with fists ready to defend his honor, rather than tossing insults back and forth. Given his slightly short temper, Hunter is quick to fight and is likely to attack if given a good reason (A good reason in his opinion. Not usually an actual good reason.).
Although Hunter doesn't fear much, one of the few things he fears is losing the people he loves and if someone managed to break through the stone surrounding his heart, he is one of the most passionate males there is. He holds those he cares about very close and is quick to attack if someone he cares for [or he] is injured, insulted, or threatened, often causing damage.

New Survivor?:
No. Been on the ARK for a good bit of months, more than half a year.

Brief History:

Tamed Dinos:
Sky
Bullet

Other:
Voice of Jensen Ackles ~ Dean Winchester

Animals

Name:
Sky

Gender:
Female

Species:
Dire Wolf

Appearance:

Personality:
Sky is a spirited wolf of nature, a daring adventurer with a taste for danger and a knack for getting in trouble. While she's a champion of friendom and a cold girl, she is fiercely protective - there is literally nothing she wouldn't do to protect her loved ones.
She's an endearing menace. An energetic wild wolf who insists on living outside of society's expectations and demands. While her untamed ferocity is unquestioned, she pounces and claws her way through life motivated by love. Love of her friends, family, and food (though she hasn't got any friends or family to love at the moment. Other than Hunter.). Many pity the soon-to-be maimed fool who tries to get in between her and her loved ones.

Eeyup, I even have a dedicated server for me and my buds !

Take your time, I'll likely post the rp thread itself in a few days, after all forms are done.

That being said, I need to make my form after I respond to rps!

Don't worry about getting forms in quick, just knowing there's interest is nice !

I intend for this to be a chill rp, I mainly reply very slowly, so hopefully it won't die out because people want to get a post everyday from everyone.

Name:
Fume Qe'tor
Age:
~25
Gender:
Female
Appearance:
A tall, lanky individual, Fume mainly has toned musculature, barely visible unless one knows how to look. She stands at around six feet,
Personality:
Quite bubbly and easily excitable, Fume at her best is generally a blur of excited motion. She has a morbid interest in bones and animal skins, as well as weaponry. One could say her favored hobby beside guns and tech is collecting remains. She loves finding dead survivors, primarily to figure out what in hell the arm implant is. She's considered one of the best people to have a good conversation about the supply drops and pillars scattered around the island and cave systems.
New Survivor?:
No
Brief History:
Fume's past before the island is something she keeps closely guarded. She does have the trappings of someone who knows her way around guns, particularly with how quickly she managed to make and develop several of her own firearms. She does have a grasp on anatomy as well, though for what, this isn't very clear.
As for when she came to the isle, it was a huge challenge for her. She at first hunted near the beaches, only going inland to access supply drops, and eventually rafted to one of the southeastern isles to establish a base. Ringo was her first tame, and then Michi, after she found the sarco stuck and unable to get out, allowing her to safely tranq the beast.
Presently, she works as a postwoman and deliveryperson to anyone she meets that can employ her.
Tamed Dinos:
Michi (Sarcosuchus) & Ringo (Pterodactyl)

Name:
Michi
Species:
Sarco
Gender:
Female
Appearance:
Mostly greenish with black-colored dermal scales. Her snout is a light green in color. She's a good 30 feet long, and can easily get to Fume's waist.
Personality:
Just a tad bit playful, she has a tendency to bite things or nose them when inspecting them. As she weighs over a ton, this tends to be a bit damaging to anything she inspects. She will bite it, but by then someone would alert her handler and make sure she won't be using her mouth to discover someone. Like all reptiles, she's a bit sluggish, but quite quick given a proper warmup. She loves to rest in greenhouses she can fit into.
Tamed By:
Fume

Name:
Ringo
Species:
Pteranodon
Gender:
Male
Appearance:
Brilliant red markings on head and body, on a pale body. His wing membranes are a very faint grey-pink. Approximately 8 feet tall. Usually has a saddle on him.
Personality:
A relatively jumpy Ptero, Ringo is constantly vigilant. Slight noises make him almost fly into the air. Likely due to his line of work, his tendencies tend to save both his and Fume's asses.
Tamed By:
Fume

I'll keep an eye on this, haven't played ARK, but sounds extremely interesting, and I've watched a ton of videos on it. I should be able to fill out a form by Monday or Tuesday, if not, later

Name: "Call me Sen. Anything else and I slit your throat."

Age: Appears to be in late teens

Gender: Female

Appearance: Sen is tall, and is of Oriental heritage. Her eyes are a striking olive color, and her black hair is usually kept in a tight bun on the top of her head.

Personality: She's quiet and very hostile. Sen believes that she survived on her own accord with no help from higher powers. Death is not something she fears, but she also wouldn't want it to come to her. If you bother her, she won't hesitate to seriously injure you.

New Survivor?: Nope.

Brief History (before and after coming to island, if applicable): Before she washed up in what she describes as a hellhole, she was an assassin and pickpocket. At the tender age of ten she had killed four already and stolen currency equivalent to four hundred US dollars. When she awoke in this place at the age of sixteen, the first thing she did was make a weapon.

Tamed Dinos: Love, Patience, and Kindness.

Other: Two mottos. "Blood is thicker than water." "Get on my bad side and you die. Get on my good side and I tolerate you until you do something to annoy me."


----

Name: Love

Species: Utahraptor

Gender: Female

Personality: Hateful, cruel, and just as quiet as her mistress. Fiercely loyal, and would die to protect those she's close with. Anyone else she would gladly make into a meal without much thought.

Appearance: Mostly a muted green-brown color, but has black markings all along her body. About 7 feet tall and 14 feet long, making her significantly larger than most of her species.

Tamed By: Sen

---

Name: Patience

Species: Utahraptor

Gender: Male

Personality: Rash, impatient, and moody. He can usually be seen hissing, calling, stomping, and lashing his tail. Basically throwing a temper tantrum because he didn't get his way, but a nip (harsh bite) from his much larger sister easily puts him back in line.

Appearance: 5' tall, 10' long. Smaller than most others of his species, and certainly smaller than his sister. He's also muted brown-green, but his markings are a fiery ginger.

Tamed By: Sen


----

Name: Kindness

Species: Utahraptor

Gender: Male

Personality: He shows that he's hungry by biting. He shows he's happy by biting. He shows he's upset by biting. He shows he's exited by biting. He shows love by biting. He shows hatred by biting. See a pattern here?

Appearance: About 6' tall, 12' long putting him at average height. Muted brown-green with brighter green markings. He's also missing a talon on his left foot and has scars along his sides.

Tamed By: Sen

Accepted! Though one small modification:

the velos would have to be Utahraptors or Austroraptors to be that size, actual velociraptors are quite smaller! Then the heights you listed would fall into average.

There's a reason I have a "kick spielberg in the nuts" jar, lol.

My fav dino, tho, is a therazinosaur. Herbivore with claws to make a carnivore jealous, haha.

And I'll see if any of the reserves manage to put a post up, I'd like to start at 3 people and let others filter in.

That sounds cool. But imagine how dangerous Sen and her three could be xD Like, Sen with a knife to your throat. Three savage raptors ganging up on your dinos. You'd be screwed xD
