≫ 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.

Personality
Darius has always been a quick tempered, but heart in the right place kind of guy. He doesn't resort to violence but is never afraid to protect himself or those around him. His main goals are to find something good left in this world and make a new life for himself and possibly to help those around him.

Character Motivations
Darius is wrestling with his demons and trying to find any good still left in the world. He strives to believe in it and find it. He yearns to find some good to do and bring some type of meaning to his everyday survival.

Physical Appearance
Darius is a 6'2" brown haired medium build man. The hard few years since the fall can be seen on his face. A few vein like scars can be seen down his arm, he received these after the outbreak first started, running through and keeping to the woods. A scar along his left cheek from the first time he experienced evil in the new world, a group of bandits robbing a couple for what food they had.

Ex cop

Biography
Before the outbreak Darius was just like any other cop, dedicated, outgoing, hardworking, and of course divorced. He was fired after his drinking got out of hand after his divorce and lived a lonely life. Trying to find purpose again out of self pity. The red eye, changed everything, first it was isolated incidents, then home invasions. Slowly but surely he started noticing the signs and decided to head into the mountains. After a few months he headed back down to find a horrific scene. People robbing people, as if the infection wasn't a battle enough in itself. Gangs setting up and claiming out territory.
Darius found his meaning he had been searching for, the times of hiding in the woods and self loathing were over. It was time to do some good. Time to change some things for the better.

Hey, Ketatsu! My name is Pika and I'll be reviewing your application today.

Before we can go any further with the application process, I need to address the most glaring issue: It isn't clear whether you've read the lore fully or not. You mentioned the virus by name, but Darius' age doesn't match up with his background. Since we're 14 years in, he would have been 17 or 18 at the start. Otherwise, your biography is good! The easiest fix here would be to adjust his age. Just make sure you've read the lore fully!

Also, don't be afraid to request high skill levels. 14 years is a long time. Someone would be able to master a skill after that long. Obviously don't request all level 10 skills, but level 10 in one or two skills that Darius is incredibly proficient in is completely fine.

Once you've made those fixes, just reply to bump the thread and we can continue with the application process. Thanks!

Fixed, I am so sorry about the age. I didn't think about the time gap
