≫ 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.

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

Before we can go any further, I need to address the most glaring issue: You haven't read the lore. At least, there are no direct references to it in Leon's biography. Also, note that we currently are ~14 years into the apocalypse. A lot can happen in that time, but Leon's biography cuts off at the beginning. Please include a brief summary of how he's fared thus far 13-14 years into the apocalypse. Note that he would have been 8 or 9 when it began since he is 21. You can also make him older to fit the lore. The lore can be read here.

Also, we require that all characters have a first and last name. You've only provided a first name. Your character may be whitelisted as simply Leon, but please include a last name in his biography.


Reply to bump the thread once you've made those changes, and we can continue with the application process. Thanks!

Hi again! Due to inactivity, I'm going to have to deny your application.

You're free to apply again with the same character if you'd like. Thanks!
