≫ 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.

Yes

Has this character appeared in a previous lore?
No

Age
37

Blood Type
AB+

Personality
Kaide is a true neutral, nether good nor bad in his own right. His goal is simple: Make money, and sell drugs to help people escape the hellish world they have found themselves in. He mainly keeps to his own affairs and rarely intrudes into other peoples business, and will really only step up to help someone if there is something to gain or they are on his property under the effects of his drugs. He is not optimistic nor pessimistic, but simply accepts the world for the way it has become, rolling along with both the good and evil of it. He also does not see his role in supplying harmful drugs to the wasteland as a bad thing either, but rather that his job is to simply sell a product to people who were going to die now or going to die later. Kaide prides himself in smart thinking and rationality, thinking through every extreme emotion he feels and dispelling if if deemed unnecessary or uncalled for. However, if pushed far enough he will snap and give in.

Character Motivations
Make fat stacks and provide a service, not even to find meaning, but to find something to do. So why not do what he does best? Make your reality disappear. Kaide is in the business of drug making and alcohol brewing, the chef of fucking peoples minds. Heroin, Meth, Weed, Shrooms, Opium, Alcohol, hell even Tobacco. While he prefers to grow drugs, he could also grow some food on the side for a little more profit.

Physical Appearance
Kaide stands at 5'8 with brown hair and green eyes, slightly muscular but fit build. He does not show his true appearance to the world, instead hiding it behind a resign cast black dog mask whenever he interacts with other people. He wears a gray jacket with multiple enamel pins and various patches denouncing religion, the back patch stating a long verse in Latin. His typical attire is a tshirt underneath the jacket along with jeans and black combat boots. His hair is usually up in a mohawk or flattened down and hidden underneath a beanie.

Biography
Kaide was born and raised in Rochester New York, born to a middle class family. His mother died at the age of three from breast cancer, and his father married a year later to another woman, who would turn out to be abusive. For nearly a year he underwent neglect as a toddler, and event which would leave him scared and his development hindered. His parents would soon undergo a divorce, and his father would take him and his sister and move to Buffalo Ny. From there he entered school, proving to be a smart kid and an A+ student, however his stunted growth would leave him with a detachment from his own emotions, and an anxiety disorder and mental illness that would lead him down a darker path and into the underground. In his high school years he became apart of the punk community, getting into various drugs and prescription pills that he become fond of and grew a big liking to, soon picking up the hobby of growing his own weed and shrooms in a run down shed on his fathers property, teaching himself the basics of botany.

After high school Kaide went away to college, deciding to try for a doctorate in Pharmaceutical science at St Johns University in Queens NY, with a minor in chemistry. And so he moved away from the big city, however his bad habits followed him. He made new friends within the punk community in the big apple, and continued his growing operations and drug dealing in order to help with his school and living expenses. He would only spend 6 years in school learning the science of drug making though before the virus would hit. Kaide was lucky, he would be home on break visiting his family when the first signs of the Red Eye showed up in Manhattan, and watched on the news as the city descended into chaos. Him and his father packed up and, after loosing contact with his sister, headed into the country side. The weight of the world ending would be to much for his dad, who would commit suicide a couple months later. Having nothing left Kaide went mad, and the broken emotions inside him would start to make him lose control of himself and his identity, plunging him into an anxiety ridden insanity. At the end of it all, when he finally managed to regain rational thought and quelled the extreme depressed and suicidal emotions through force of will, he collected himself. However, the person Kaide was before was gone, and the partial mental stability came with a price. And thus, Kaide the Mutt was birthed.

He returned to his old hobbies, using drugs to escape his reality and offering his services to help others escape theirs. Over the years as supplies became scarce he started to make his own, picking up mold making and blacksmithing in order to forge the supplies he needed to continue his operations, even taking on the dangers of mining in order to gather the resources that were precious and rare. To Kaide, drugs were life now, and as years passed he would make his way across the desolate state of New York in search of more costumers for his desperately needed services, packing up and carrying along his drug making supplies as he went.

Would you like your character to start with any items?
Distillery and a Laboratory

Would you like your character to start with any skills?
I am going to try and get a high medical stat off the bat, but ill also need farming and wood working XP. PZ requires a lot of high stats in order to mechanically make drugs. Hell, its level 7 farming just to grow weed alone, and there are a ton of work benches I need to make in order just to make the basic drugs. So any help in those three stats would be appreciated.

Right so I have a problem. When I go to log into the server and get to the skills part of the character creator Gateways updated professions dont show up. It also gives me the ability to take a luck skill, so im not sure whats wrong.

We aren't using the Gateway profession mod. And luck still shows up despite the mod, the trait just doesn't do anything.
