≫ 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.

Brash, Self-Assured and Quick to anger, Sepp has traversed the US and back again. Although the Mennonite teachings of his youth had slowly become more pronounced 12 years ago back in Kentucky, since the death of a close friend He slowly forgone those teachings, but the roots remain, helping to keep the man grounded and from teetering into the abyss. Despite all this hoever, the man retains a soft spot for children and animals.

Character Motivations
Having walked the wastelands of America for 10 years before settling down in Monroe, the man just wants to rest in peace. Having spent the past decade fighting a one man war against the Red Eyed scourge in some mad crusade, The man is weary and has the scars that come with it. To be simply left in peace is all he desires at this point.

Physical Appearance
Standing at 6 foot, Sepp has grown from the little shrimp he was back in the day. Recovering from his near starvation in Kentucky, Sepp has managed to regain a healthy weight, though its still nowhere near pre-infection rates. That tattoos that used to decorate his are now gone, removed via some unknown method to leave a lattice of old scars from a decade of war. Accompanying this change is the regrowth of his hair, revealing a messy mock of light brown hair, matching a scruffy beard thats only just barely well kempt.

Biography
When the Mall group fled the remains of Kentucky, Sepp suddenly became the most targetted man in Valley Station. From within his "Junkyard Castle", Sepp struggled against daily and ever more increasing waves of Red Eyes, losing his dearest friend, Joey during what would of been his final day if not for the intervention of a ghost from the old world...

For 3 years, Sepp fought his way back to Kansas where his parents lived, losing friends, familiy and loved ones to the struggles of the new world, only to find the farmland had been burnt to the ground during Operation Sapphire. Heading the Ghosts words from that fateful day, Sepp began a one man war against the red eyes, a futuile war that only brought more and more hardship upon him. When ammo became scarce, He took up the weapons of old, Discarding powder and shot for wood and iron. As fuel rotted, He once more took up the horse, until they too grew old and weary from war.

For 7 years he waged this war, this crusade, "The War never Ended" he was told....More accurately, the war would never end. For everyone of those damned monsters he killed, 20 more would take its place. It was a rate he just coudnt keep up, no matter how much he improvised or innovated.

After 7 years, He coudnt take it anymore. The crusade he was sent on had practically near killed him, and would should he continue in his ways. And so, He settled down in Monroe, to rest, and recuperate, turning his sword into a plowshare, as the good book once said, taking up the occupation of his ancestors, as the education he recieved back on the farm came to help him once more. From this call to agriculture, he finally knew peace in his long, weary life...

It has been 2 years since he settled down, leading a quiet life. God knows if this will change in the future, but as the Ghost Of Old said...

"The War Never Ended."
