≫ 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.
Christopheris a character and a survivor in GWR's lore 'The Lone Star'
Christopher Jason Dane was a former Assistant Marketing Consultant in Fort Holly before the world fell apart. Stumbling out of the forest soon after it began with nothing but a Survival Axe, Tattered Clothes and a Camping Pack. From there he'd soon find his way to one of the Quarantine Zones, where he now resides with numerous other survivors under the name of 'The Crossroads'
Chris is the only Survivor of his Marketing Firm as they, rather unluckily, met a grisly end on a Company Retreat for 'Team-building' Exercises. Hence why emerged from the forest alone. He still hasn't talked about what happened there.
Appearance
Standing at 5'8", and weighing in at around c.150lbs, he is of a relatively slim build, but arguably attractive nonetheless. His eyes are blue, but appear gentle at the shallowness in which they're set in their sockets. His hair is brown, generally sitting off of his forehead if he can help it. His beard and stubble often grows quickly on his chin. To be frank, it's probably one of his best talents.
He generally wears suits, preferably grey and blue in colour if he can. Otherwise, he still tries to keep appearances by wearing deep colours. Polo shirts, Light Jackets, Trousers. He often tries maintain some form of appearance in order to boost his own self-esteem.
Quiet and Reserved, Chris is often noted to appear weak-willed and sheepish. But he is determined to do his best for everyone, regardless of who they are.
Biography
