Hi guys,
I've been working on a potential event and have come to the point where the notes can be released. At this point in time I require some outside input. Scroll through and have a look, once you have read it, please come up with some Civilian Bios. Submit them below and they may be included in the final game mode.
The rules have not yet been completed and the entire event is a work in progress. Please make sure your comments are constructive.
Introduction
The purpose of this event is to promote camaraderie , have fun and go back to the roots of roleplay. Three factions will be operating. Civilians, Insurgents and Military.
General background
The country of Altis has been under going a political change over the last forty years. The government of Altis has ruled with an iron fist. The democracy is a farce. All elections have been rigged however there has never been any concrete proof. Until now there has only ever been a small rumbling in the back rooms of the civilians.
In the past decade there has been a growing number ‘incidents’ mostly labelled as training exercises by the government. People are afraid. They are afraid of those who are intended to be the protectors. The police are working for the government. Corruption and death is one and the same in Altis. You pay the right people you live. You mess with the wrong people you die.
The Rumarma have had enough. This small group of youths are ready to impede the government at all cost. They are planting roadside bombs, attacking convoys and causing havoc for the government. Their intention is to free Altis and take into the twenty first century once and for all.
Rules of engagement:
Military:
Objective:
The military is to work with the civilians (if they can convince them to) to find the insurgents and neutralize them.
Arrest them where possible, kill them where required. The military must NOT fire unless fired at first and must NOT detain or harm anyone without logical and proper reason. Having said that, the military is permitted to question people if reasonable suspicion arises.

You may use any means necessary including but not limited to, explosives, vehicles, civilians, deception, lies and dickery. If you are to use civilians keep in mind they are permitted to snitch to the military.
Civilians:

Civilians:
Steve the Fishmonger - you work on the docks as a lowly fish monger trying to sling 3 day old fish simply because it’s all you’ve ever done. You grew up as a youngster in and around the docks, your father was a fisherman so you learned your skills at gutting a fish at a young age. You keep each and every eye ball in a small pouch under your trolley. Why? Because you can. That’s why.
Joseph the Mechanic - your small run down garage has been in your family for two generations. While it may not look much it does the job. It puts food on your table and keeps the wolf from the door… most of the time. You enjoy the smell of old engine oil and sometimes fall asleep on your creeper whilst doing your work.
Jorge the Beggar - ever since your brother was charged and hung for treason you have lost all hope, you work the streets looking for any food you can find. You scrounge through bins and collect cans for the recycling centre. Sometimes you are able to get some fish heads off the fishmonger somewhat begrudgingly. Funnily enough most of the heads come with out eyes.
Martin the Florist - you moved from Holland to Altis thirty five years ago to set your family up. You did not expect the government to be such a pain in the crack. You used to be a doctor, you healed the Elite in Holland which mostly turned out to be Windmill moguls. You are now a florist, you learned the art from sheer necessity and the refusal to let your family down.
Waylon the Janitor - congratulations, you secured one of the few government jobs that allows you to come and go from the military compounds without much scrutiny. You are still subjected to searches every now and then however you have accepted it as a part of life and it no longer bothers you.
Maqbakalla the Youtuber - your fame came over night after you perfected the ability to create small fireworks in your backyard. You created youtube videos telling people how to make the devices. You have come under government scrutiny after the recent spate of bombings.
Roger the Purple - You sell grapes at the market. Your stall is next to the fishmonger. You have regular arguments with him over the smell of the three day old fish and rude manner that he greets his customers.
Noel the Mayor - You’re in charge of this town. You’re naive mind is what keeps you in power, not knowing the military is such a powerhouse you continue moving forward in your own way. You ignore all the mayhem and despair and have created a shell around you in which you recede to whenever things get to hard.
Gerald the Sportstar - You’re a washed up football player from the last generation who is refusing to accept your demise. You spend your weeks at the local sports bar commentating loudly and drunkenly over the television sets. The other punters take pity and are yet to get sick of your presence.
Jahmal the Bible distributor - You distribute all manner of religious material. Your methods are unorthodox and have garnered criticism from your local churches. It has not curbed your enthusiasm and you can be seen most Saturdays on main street trying to sell or hand out different literature.
Nenashev Vladislav Yanovich the Slav - first generation Altisian, you have not yet forgotten the “old country”. You recount story after story day in day out at the local. Gerald and yourself are good friends however do not see eye to eye on everything.
Speck the Troll - Previously the front office staff at the government headquarters he was moved into the Administration block where he became well known for organising office events, halloween parties, birthday events and secret santa.
Laa Kee the Beef Merchant - you are a butcher, your ability to slice up a cow knows no rival.
Tru Lee The Game Tester - You spend most of your time playing games for a small company, every game they throw at you, you suck at, This does not stop you, you continue to play games terribly.
