≫ 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
Katherine Fitzgerald

I Agree
Yes

Has this character appeared in a previous lore?
No

Age
19

Blood Type
O+

Personality
Katherine is an emotional person. She's a bit immature, as she is prone to outbursts of anger or frustration if a situation becomes difficult for her. In general, she isn't very good at faking her feelings--subterfuge and manipulation are not her strong suits. Instead, she prefers a headstrong and aggressive approach to life.

Character Motivations
Primarily, Katherine intends on finding out as much info about her surroundings and the locals as possible. She hopes to use them for her own survival until either she catches wind of her old group's location, or until they find her.

Physical Appearance
A young adult, Katherine stands at 5'9" and weighs about 140 lbs. She has mundane and matted brown hair that matches the color of her eye. Her most noticeable features are the vast amounts of scarring on the right-side of her face--injuries she sustained during her group's shootout. Similarly, her left arm is missing just above the elbow. She typically wears long sleeves in a vain attempt at hiding her lack of arm, though she neglects to try and hide anything about her face.

Biography
Having been kidnapped by an infamous bandit group, Katherine Fitzgerald has spent the majority of her time learning the ropes on post-society survival. Katherine's status with the group transitioned from 'prisoner' to 'member' after one of the group members vouched for her, but it wasn't until she passed several of the trials the group laid for her that she was officially inducted in full. Katherine partook in many of the group's activities, namely robberies, and though she never particularly enjoyed the work, she acknowledged it as a necessary part of survival.

It was after Katherine spent two years with the group that tragedy struck. An inter-group dispute resulted in a shootout that nearly took the group leader's life if Katherine hadn't intervened. Taking the shot intended for her superior caused her to lose consciousness. By the time she was awake again, the base was abandoned--with infected all around her. Realizing that one such infected had decided to help itself to her arm while she was out (as well as the gunshot wounds she had sustained), Katherine barely had the strength to pull herself out of the base alive. Death would have been inevitable for her if she hadn't been rescued by a stranger--a passerby who had happened upon the base during the commotion.

After having been nursed back to health by the stranger, Katherine made the decision to leave them and set back out on her own. Without the group that she had spent so much time with, Katherine has spent the last few weeks wandering the barrens, void of a goal and unsure of what to do with herself. Finding her old companions is always a possibility, but without any leads, the chances are slim. For now, she plans to scope out her surroundings, find out as much as she can about the local establishments, and with any luck, find a vulnerable group that she can leech off of as much as needed...
