≫ 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
Corrine Reyes

I Agree
Yes

Has this character appeared in a previous lore?
Yes

Age
32

Blood Type
B

Personality
Coming from a rather well-off city-based community in New York, the environment Corrine is used to means that she struggles without her creature comforts. She is like a fish out of water in The Barrens, which amplifies her determination and ambition to return home and see her friends again. She is generally a pleasant person to be around, though she is known to get a little prickly when pushed. She often finds it hard not to speak up when something is bothering her, even when it would be better for her to keep quiet.

Character Motivations
Corrine is determined to return to her community in New York and is looking for help fixing up her car and getting back on the road. She is open to making friends, but she is set on the idea of getting home some day.

Physical Appearance
Corrine is a small built, olive skinned woman with wavy brown hair and small brown eyes. Her facial features are sharp and angular. She has a mole below her left eye. Standing at 5"4, she doesn't appear to be particularly threatening.

Biography
Corrine Reyes was born and raised in Texas, with parents who moved to Texas for work in the oil and gas industry. Her parents were wealthy, and as their only child she was rather spoiled by both parents. After all, they had experienced hardship when they were growing up and didn't want their child to miss out on anything. Corrine was in New England at college during the early days of the outbreak, so she never found out what happened to her parents and her college friends became family to her. They survived in various groups and camps together for the first few years of the outbreak, until they ultimately became part of a large settlement in New York city itself.

Corrine was in the area of The Barrens on a long expedition with her group when she took a wrong turn to their rendez-vous point and suddenly became lost. She is stopping by town to get her car repaired and rest up before leaving on the long expedition back to New York alone. Will she find something to keep her in town?

Would you like your character to start with any items?
1x car (near needing repairs if possible!)
1x pistol
1x medical kit
3x food items
1x axe
1x duffel bag
1x watch

Is your character a member of a group?
No

Heya, Euan! I've reviewed your application, and it's accepted!

Since your character's occupation is a scavenger, you're going to have to abide by the 2 item request limit. I can give you the car, duffelbag, and two other items from your list. Which two would you like?

If you have any questions, feel free to reply and ask. Thanks!
