oh god how do i rp again HEY EVERYBODY. I'm Xel. I come bearing a familiar face. Meet Timothy Lawrence from Borderlands, aka the guy who made some real serious career mistakes to end up where he is, which is STUCK LOOKING LIKE HANDSOME JACK PROBABLY FOR FOREVER. Also he has to do basically everything Jack tells him to. So that kinda blows.

As far as AU notes go—Tim is Jack's bodyguard/doppelganger/field agent. He's undergone numerous surgeries and mods to go from strongly resembling Jack to being essentially identical*, all for a sweet fat paycheck and the promise that he'd be able to return to his own life in time for Claimant Day. Due to a "clerical error," however, the man named Timothy Lawrence no longer legally exists within the system. Full rundown is here!

The fact that Jack even has a body double is a closely protected secret, at least for now in the beginning, but the better your character knows Jack or comes to know Tim the more likely it is that they'll start to notice some strange inconsistencies from one interaction to the next. I've got a bunch of catching up to do so please bear with me, but I'm super happy to plot if anybody's got ideas!! Feel free to add me on plurk @ piasora and/or discord @ tevinter#3439. Super excited about playing with everyone!


(*Because he doesn't have Jack's scar, the dumb thing he has to do is wear his own mask all the time when he's out in public. Like, it's just literally a copy of his face on his face. Jack sucks.)

Hello! I'm Kam and I play Giovanni Rammsteiner from DOGS: Bullets & Carnage. He's a Company attack dog and has a sizeable dislike of Jack but has to be reasonably civil towards him because he's basically Company property and would get put down if he went around killing Company employees he doesn't like.

I will have to think some more of how we could use that for plotting purposes, but I'm sure there must be something fun we could do. And welcome to the game!

Thanks, pal! C: Hahaha, dislike Jack? WHATEVER FOR

[ofobedience]

No good reason, clearly!! >.>

[cauterised]

body doubles.....why this....

But anyway, hello!! I'm Val and I play Riza Hawkeye, who is a Company Enforcer and on good enough* terms with Jack so this clearly means I need to hit up Tim for shenanigans later down the line. c:

Hope you have a good time here!


* she doesn't want to kill him, close enough

[blap]

Close enough is good enough, that's Tim's philosophy. c: but yes hello Val!!!! I am 1000% up for shenanigans so if anything ever comes to you definitely let me know. ♥
