≫ WHAT'S UP WITH GATEWAY ROLEPLAY? ≪

  • We've been radio silent for a long time now. We posted an announcement in our Discord server back in April of 2025, but never updated the forums. So what's up with Gateway Roleplay?

    After 5 long years, we've decided to place the development of Ties That Bind on an indefinite hold.

    This doesn't mean it's cancelled. We fully intend to run Ties That Bind: What Lies Beneath and Ties That Bind: City of Angels eventually. But to do so, we need to take a step back. In the meantime, we'll be working on smaller, invite-only projects.

    Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us this long! MindGate and I (Pika) have been working on this server for over a decade now. It truly is a passion project for us.

APPEARANCE

Joseph Thompson is your stereotypical description of a man lost to his own vices, in his case, internet culture and depression. He stands on the taller side at six-foot with young facial features, tired, sunken eyes, long brown hair and a stubble befitting that of a teenager. He additionally wears glasses. He has immense damage to his left hand from being exposed to fire. He isn’t usually seen outside of a faux-military jacket, T-Shirts, or jeans. It’s rare, but you can sometimes find him wearing some pieces of jewelry inherited, or given to him by his father. The usual suspects being a silver bracelet inherited from his father or a Saint Michael’s pendant.

PERSONALITY

Joseph at first glimpse appears to be nothing more than a nerdy, meek kid lost in his own world and vices. It isn’t difficult to completely overlook him, or not notice him in a room from a mixture of his bad social graces, and lack of a desire to communicate with strangers. Perhaps there is something more to him.
