≫ 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.

Victoria has a very motherly nature. She is kind, caring, and loves to help others whenever she's able. She's usually calm and collected. When things get a bit messy, she tries her best to keep her ducks in a row. She loves making friends and meeting new people, but most of the time, she could be found reading a book or painting. She tries to love everyone, but there is no one that she loves more than her wife, Laura.

Character Motivations
Victoria wants to try and get the best out of what is left in life. The outbreak changed a lot of her future plans, but that doesn't mean that she still can't find happiness in the wasteland humanity has been left with. She strives to help others as well, hoping to teach kindness. love and responsibility. It's a difficult task in these times, but if there is a will, there is a way.

When she is working, she usually ties it back. She has a curvy body type. She isn't physically strong, and isn't the best in a combat situation, but she can move fast. She can usually be found wearing comfier clothes; oversized sweaters, jackets, t-shirts, skinny jeans, and sneakers or boots. She's also as blind as a bat, so she always needs her glasses, even though they're held together with tape at this point.

Biography
Victoria Harper, born Victoria Morgan, was from a white-collared, middle class family that lived in Vermont. Her mother was a school teacher and her father was an architect. She was a gifted student, well versed in reading and writing, although math was never her strong suit. They lived their typical suburban life in peace and happiness until the outbreak hit. At the time, Victoria was 11, and felt lost in the new world that they were living in. Luckily, her parents quickly worked to protect the family. It wasn't long until they were accepted into a small community just outside of New York. Her mother was once again teaching the children there with what little they had, and her father was working hard to help build their new home further. Victoria's life changed even more though, when she met Laura. She was 13 at the time, and had noticed a new girl that was in need of a friend. Victoria was determined to become that friend.

They spent every day together, almost. They grew up together. They were inseparable.

Their community started falling apart when Victoria had turned 17. It was overrun, and she was barely able to escape. In all of the chaos, she lost both her mother and father. She, herself, was nearly lost as well until Laura had found her. Their lives changed once again, and things were hopefully looking up.

They moved around a lot, trying to find somewhere they belonged. No where was good enough for them though. For years, they just became drifters, spending nights at camps, finding shelter in abandoned buildings, and sometimes just sleeping on whatever flat ground they could. Victoria was happy though. She had Laura with her.

When Victoria was 21, she and Laura finally became a couple. It was like it was meant to be. Imagine it; falling in love in the middle of an apocalypse. They continued on as drifters for years, until they found a small settlement that welcomed the two in with open arms. There, they married, and enjoyed the honeymoon phase until they decided to leave again. As much as they loved their cozy settlement, they didn't feel like they could call it their "home."

This brings them to Monroe, where they currently reside. They've spent the last four months just keeping to themselves, but now, they're ready to really be apart of the community.

This is where their story continues.
