≫ 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.

Character Name
Constantine Hasapis

I Agree
Yes

Has this character appeared in a previous lore?
No

Age
28

Blood Type
O+

Personality
He's a cooperative person that tends to avoid conflict. Rather than resorting to violence, he's the type of person to attempt to achieve a mutually beneficial solution. He's not a pushover, however, and it irks him when people are dishonest or are not upfront with what they want. Trust and loyalty are his strongest values so he tends to be honest and tries to find himself in a group.

Character Motivations
One of his fears is to be nothing more than just another survivor. He wants to contribute to something more meaningful and worthwhile. The entire human civilization may have fallen for the worse but he feels like it's not too late to try to get together and bring something back and it starts with being a productive member of society.

Physical Appearance
He's average looking as a man with gloomy dark eyes, short and trimmed full beard, and his hair is messy, long, and wavy. His skin is olive and sun-tanned. For his build, he appears to be around 5'7'' and looks slim but fit. As for his outfits, he tends to wear something comfortable and nothing fancy. Especially since things can get messy at any moment.

Biography
Constantine was only 16 years old when the world collapsed. In the middle of highschool and the aspirations of being a pilot have suddenly vanished into the core and primitive desire for survival. With his family, he moved around from place to place anywhere where there was safety, shelter, food, and medicine further away from the cities to avoid the plague and other desperate survivors. They drove to the country in Maine where they had a distant cousin who owned a farm. From there, he lived with a small pocket of farmers who ended up working together to protect each other and support each other from the disaster. He worked with animals, plants, and the basic chores around the place. It wasn't long until food and water became scarce. The group was starving and had to resort to killing most and eventually all of the livestock, eating all of the preserved fruits and vegetables, and had to resort to scavenging. This proved to be difficult for the group. They began to starve and people were falling out. They started accusing each other of holding out, having favorites, conspiracies against each other and it tore them apart. That's when everyone started to go in their separate ways and not necessarily on good terms. His mother and sister died of starvation. His father never returned on one of his scavenging runs. This was the lowest point of his life. Young and alone to his own devices. Starving and desperate.

Luckily, a group of questionable scavengers took him in after he rescued a member from one of the infected by pushing them away and bringing the scavenger to safety. The group stole, swindled, and sometimes violently took what they needed. This wasn't really who he was but he stayed with them and tried to minimize his involvement by only taking up roles that require scouting places out, being a lookout, and providing distractions. He lived with them for a few years until he ran across another group of survivors whom he ended up staying with for years. The story they told was that they went and "liberated" a cattle factory and then they were herding cows ever since. They primarily made their survival off of selling furs, cheese, and meat. They traded fur for winter clothing and preserved meats. This allowed him to pick up the skills over time. He learned how to become more self-sufficient by picking up skills techniques from others. Eventually, he picked up on their trade on how to skin, butcher, preserve meat, and also how to make cheese.

While they were driving the herd southwards to avoid the cold weather, some thugs ambushed and overran their group. He was able to get on one of the stock horses and was separated from the group when he fled. He then ended up in The Barrens where he found the community of Monroe and decided to settle for the time being to work and live.

Hey!

I read through your app and am super excited to see the character! He seems awesome and I'm sure he'll be a valuable addition to the server. I like how you incorporated starvation into his backstory, I'm sure fears of that recurrence will lead to some interesting aspects to the character and his perception of the world.

If you haven't already looked over the thread on food, I'd recommend giving it a cursory glance. As a butcher and cheesemaker, you might want to utilize the system to some extent.

Your character is accepted! Furthermore, if you need any items related to your trade, let me know and we'll get them to you. They'd belong to the community of Monroe over you personally, but we'll make sure to have them for you to use. (Stuff like meat grinder for making sausages and all that).

I'll give you your whitelist info at launch.

Glad to have you back around and I look forward to hopefully roleplaying with Constantine!
