Real Name: Journey Hunter Watts Oasis Name: R@ggedy_S@lly Age: 19 Appearance: Real Self: Oasis Avatar: What You Do in the Real World: Student, part time job at Gregarious Simulation Systems Residence: dorm room at Halliday University in Columbus, Ohio Skills: Programming, coding, hacking, extensive knowledge of the innerworkings of the Oasis Weaknesses/bad habits: Gets really absorbed and oblivious to her surroundings when coding. Uses her insider knowledge of the Oasis to easily advance, upgrade, and collect for her avatar. Frequent moods/expressions: Friendly, outgoing, snarky humor Background/History: After solving Halliday's Easter Egg contest within the Oasis, Gunters Wade Watts and Samantha Cook used their newfound wealth, fame, and control of the Oasis to encourage people to begin repairing the world from the damage it had taken due to various geopolitical events. They started by shutting down the Oasis two days a week. No longer could people spend their every waking hour ignoring reality and wasting away while the world outside did the same. Conscientious of the extreme overpopulation, Wade Watts and Samantha Cook opted to set another example by adopting rather than having a child of their own. They adopted a newborn baby girl, naming her Journey Hunter Watts. Pop culture nuts that her parents are, her first name wasn't only in honor of a popular 80's band. There were many metaphorical reasons they'd given over the years, mostly revolving around the reminder that life should be a journey and to journey gave life meaning. Apparently they had regrets for having spent practically all of their childhood and young adult lives in a world that wasn't real, and yet, having spent their lives hunting in a virtual world was what led them to each other and to the life they had now; hence her middle name of Hunter. Wade and Samantha wanted to be sure that Journey had a normal childhood outside of the spotlight. They'd only shared the news of having adopted but kept her name and pictures out of any and all media. Not a difficult task to keep her out of the limelight. Several years had passed since the hunt for Halliday's egg had ended and in that time, Wade and Samantha's popularity remained mostly with Gunters. To the rest, they'd just evolved into the heads of a big tech/entertainment company. Journey was able to attend public schools and be amongst her peers, make friends, and live the normal life of a normal kid. After graduating, she got into Halliday University where she continues her studies in the field of computer technology. Journey excels in her classes, thanks to having been raised on computer tech. Wanting to continue living a normal life, she'd opted to staying in a dorm on campus, even though her home is nearby, and avoids giving details of her parentage. Since her early teens, Journey has been learning the ropes of her parents' company by working in some capacity at Gregarious Simulation Systems and continues to do so on a part-time basis. Her plan is to transition to full time after graduation and work her way up, eventually taking over when her parents decide to retire. (Note: Some details may end up changing about her background or her character. It's hard to form a full picture until I've gotten a feel for her by interacting in the world we end up building in our RPG.)

Real Name: Emmett Rodgers Oasis Name: Drag0nSlay3r Age: 18 years old Appearance: IRL: OASIS Avatar: What You Do in the Real World: Full time student in the business diploma program Residence: In the dorms at Halliday University in Columbus, Ohio Skills: Computer and tech. savvy, artistically inclined (loves theatre, acting and writing) Weaknesses/bad habits: Stuck in a cycle of following the lead of others and is used doing what he is told, rather than thinking for himself Frequent moods/expressions: Can be known to be shy and reserved in the real world unless familiar with specific acquaintances and friends Background/History: Emmett Rodgers was born in the small town of Lynden, Washingon State to parents Deborah and Wilburn 'Willy' Rodgers. Growing up in a small town with little to do, Emmett would often occupy his time in his bedroom immersed in comics and stories about fictional heroes who went through trying times but always overcame the obstacles, slayed the brutish foes and saved the Princess, rather than playing outside with the other neighborhood kids. Through his school years, these books and comics inspired Emmett to write stories and screenplays of his own (one of his scripts was produced into a theatre production at his school which he directed and starred in), and living vigorously through these heroic characters, Emmett looked up to them in hopes that he could be as courageous as them to go out and find his happily ever after. Though, living freely like his characters and doing what he loved was nothing short of a dream as he was expected to join the family business and one day take over for his father once he decided to retire. Emmett was always brought up to do what was expected of him, so out of respect he never spoke out of term regarding the matter and presumed it as his lifelong duty to the family. After graduation from high school, Emmett worked hard to maintain good enough grades to achieve a scholarship to the business diploma program at Halliday University in Columbus, Ohio just as his father expected of him, where he resides in the dorms and participates in the University's official Oasis clan on a weekly basis as Drag0nSlay3r to escape the stress of his pre-chosen career path and to attempt to jump out of his comfort zone to make new friends.

Real Name: Ray Johnson Oasis Name: B@nshee_Queen Age: 19 Appearance: Real-Life (Kit Harrington) Oasis-Avatar: (Sylvanas from World of Warcraft) What You Do in the Real World: Student, running the Household for him and his Dad Residence: a dorm room at Halliday University in Columbus, Ohio Skills: programming, hacking, gaming, playing the guitar and singing Weaknesses/bad habits: sometimes a bit dreamy and naive (in compensation to catch up on his childhood) Frequent moods/expressions: wants to get appreciation for his own sake, sometimes embarrassed because of his father’s past Background/History: Ray’s father, David Ross, worked for IOI as one oft he players during the Easter Egg contest when he was just a young adult. But when Wade and Samantha took the Oasis he became unemployed. He had to do some different jobs to earn enough money to live. But he didn’t work with computers again. He wanted to forget those years and sealed everything that remembered him of this era in a wooden box. Some years later he got to know Joanne Johnson, Ray’s mother, and they fell in love with each other. David and her didn't mary but another couple of years later she got pregnant. They bought a bigger house and became a little family. Ray was raised with much love. Everything seemed to be well… But there came a day... Sadly Joanne died in an accident when Ray was just twelve years old. His father fell into a sort of limbo and left his little son nearly by his own. So he had to learn standing on his own feeds in his early years. One day he found his father’s wooden box on the attic and went through it. He was fascinated and wanted to learn programming and start gaming, too. He began to use the Internet to learn more about computers and programms. He also got to know interesting facts about old computer games called MMORPGs. And of course, it didn’t took much time til he created an own Oasis account. Ray also started to write songs to handle with his grief about his mother’s death. His father recognized his talents just when Ray was sixteen years old. And suddenly David regained his vitality and started to encourage his son. So Ray was able to study at Halliday University. Although Ray isn't shy and don’t have problems to talk to other people he avoids one of his classmates: Journey Hunter Watts. It's because of her family name. She's the daughter of Wade and Samantha. But in truth Ray gets a clandestine crush on her. ( Hollywood Heidi Just if you're okay with it ^^) (some details of his background or his character Maybe could change later when we start the Play - just the same as Heidi already said ^^ ) My Browsers still aren't working alright so I keep on posting the Links for the Giphy-Alters: I also choose two pics to combine them into one like you guys already did.www.zap2it.com/blogs/happy_birthday_kit_harington_a_gif_celebration_to_make_you_smile_more_than_jon_snow_does-2014-12 andgiphy.com/gifs/warcraft-world-of-warcraft-1zjOOpgD3uF5OHg1Do

Real Name: Morrigan Ophelia Ashen Oasis Name: xXxEsoteric_ArcanaxXx Age: 20 Appearance: Real World:i.imgur.com/pHqlINP.gifOasis Avatar:What You Do in the Real World: Studies psychology and neurology at Halliday University. Residence: Stays at the dormitories at Halliday University while in game she can be found in Tartarus; the world she runs. Skills: Hacking with particular specialization in viruses and program manipulator/modification Weaknesses/bad habits: Maybe slightly unhinged and suffering from a mental illness or two. Frequent moods/expressions: Apathetic in the real world. In game she is a complete agent of chaos and finds delight in what she does. Background/History: Morrigan was born 5 years after the events of Parzival winning Halliday’s Easter Egg Hunt and the only child to an Irish Mother and deadbeat Father. During the height of the Gunters her Father was one of the participants though never beat the first game blaming Parzival for his short comings, which quickly shifted to passing his blame onto any and everyone else. Growing up she quickly found herself adept at reading and writing code which allowed her to create and sell almost anything anyone could need in the Oasis be it counterfeit or not. Since the shutting down of certain days hit her Father hard he became a very negative and toxic person leading Morrigan to want nothing more than to escape her Stacked existence. Scraping all every cent she could Morrigan saved and saved until she could afford to leave and attend Halliday University to where she studies psychology and neuroscience to learn more on the code of the human computer; it’s brain. Shortly before moving out to Halliday University Morrigan set up Tartarus her own slice of hell. Tartarus resembles a mixture of theme park and circus, there are rides, arcades, exotic animals from movies, her favorite are the Mogwai one of which she carries around with her and of course there are the games, rumor has it that after some games you will never be the same even outside of the Oasis.

Real Name: Brian O'Neal Oasis Name: NavaL_AchE - INACTIVE (last online: Apr 18, 2064 at 21:11pm) Age: 48 Appearance:Real Self: Oasis Avatar: What You Do in the Real World: changing jobs like his underwear, currently substitute teacher for physics and math at Halliday University in Columbus, Ohio Residence: Appartment in Columbus, Ohio Skills: Tech savy (yet more a nerd of weapons and motorbikes rather than computer stuff - except for gaming), strenght sports, boxing Weaknesses/bad habits: A bit of a macho personality, smoking, sometimes drinking a little bit too much of beer or whiskey (especially ever since the tragedy of having lost his daughter to a coma state), miserable at cooking or any housework at all, has struggles to deal with any negative emotions so he suppresses them until they would break out in a sudden tantrum and lately even panic attacks although he's good at downplaying those, doesn't like to receive help from others which isn't going for people only but also for all the medications he ever should have taken, doesn't like to talk feelings, sometimes has a cruel sense of humor, strong language Frequent moods/expressions: Collects vinyl discs of old-school Rock'n'Roll and other music legends such as Joe Cocker and Tina Turner, always carries a gun with him, his daughter means all the world to him, over-protective of those he cares for while most unpleasantly around those he can't stand, has his own code of behavior but to that he strictly sticks, distinct sense of justice (but plays the judge himself all to often which brought him one or two suspended sentences yet never imprisonment), hardly ever shed tears if not never at all, haunted by nightmares ever since he can remember Background/History: In the winter of 2022, Brian O'Neil was born and raised on a small farm in the west of Ireland. After his father Brody O'Neil had died during an accident with the farm machines in 2028, his mother, Nessa O'Neil, married another man, Sean McCarthy, only a year later. He never officially adopted Brian and his seven year older sister Cara, so they kept the last name of their birth father. Brian and Cara soon learned to hate their mother's new husband as he was not only a drinker but also a bully.
When Brian reached the age of 14, he could no longer just listen to their mother's vespertine muffled screams and cries. He pulled the gun out of Sean's holster laying on the coffee table, pushed the bedroom door open and... fired. Deep under her shock, Nessa should have been thankful for her pain to have ended, yet all she felt was anger and fear of her own child. She promised, however, to give the false evidence of his husband having shot himself after he came home from another pub-crawl, if Brian would leave the farm forever. Cara was on the side of her little brother and made the decision to take him with her to the States where she was going to start her career as a teacher at Halliday University in Columbus. The siblings left Europe and never came back to their place of birth, nor ever heard anything of their mother's wellbeing or whereabouts. Settled in Ohio of the United States, soon Brian started to study engineering, not to become a teacher just like his sister, but an operator. His dream was to eventually work for the military, constructing and building weapons and armory. Unfortuntaley, he never made it there. Due to his temper and his lack of accepting a subordinate role to anyone, Brian was loosing one job after another already while he was still a student. Eventually, he gave up on trying. He started to accept his mistakes, and to take on different dreams in areas of life other than his job situation. After receiving his bachelor degree in the summer of 2043, Brian focused back on a career after all, just in another place of life. The Oasis. Halliday's Easter Egg hunt was still in the running, although people started to give up on it. Brian, however, used this chance to make himself a name there, not as a Gunter but instead as a provider for weapons and equipment. Soon he had established his reputation as one of the top sellers for all kind of stuff that would help people to stand against the tasks of the hunt. When, in the end of 2044, Wade Watts and the others won the hunt, he would, however, loose commissions yet still was someone inside the Oasis, especially his own boss. Despite the hours and hours he spent in the game, sometime in 2049, Brian met a young woman, Janet Jones, who he fell in love with and only two years later became his wife. Another two years later, Janet got pregnant with their planned child, a girl they named Jewel. They led some fulfilling years together, and, even though that never seemed to have become a real problem betweem them before, Brian's doubtful and risky income earned and lost in the Oasis caused a huge dispute one day in 2064. In reality, it had been a whole different issue that piled up with Janet. She had kept to herself that she was diagnosed with brain tumor and saw their life being not only limited but also separated. From that day on, Brian had never again logged into his Oasis account, and instead found himself a job that would keep them above water at least, even if that would mean to repair toasters for the rest of his life. His establishment in the Oasis, built with lifeblood, had always meant a lot to him, but so had Janet and Jewel. The little family had been given three more years until, in the winter of 2067, the disease took their beloved wife and mother. With Janet's death, their daily life had changed a lot. Not only because Brian was overchallenged with the household and stuff, but also because Jewel and him seemed to emotionally move apart from each other. While he was all busy with holding the purse and their home, his daughter spent more and more time inside the Oasis. However, Brian never brought that up or took it amiss on her, for he could only imagine how hard it must be to have lost her mother in her young teenage years. Still, they had never shared a word with each other about Janet's death. One day, it was the 14th of May in the year 2070, Jewel wouldn't answer his call for dinner, freshly made with love by their favorite pizzeria. When he went to check on her, Brian found her in her room, lying on the ground and with the VR-glasses around her eyes. She had fallen into a coma state. With no sign of a cause. Only a few days later, Brian lost the only somewhat long-term job he ever had when one of his coworkers made a misplaced comment about his family situation. The result of that was a bloddy nose, two broken ribs and an instant dismissal - the latter for Brian's part. From then on, Brian's sister forced him to finally visit a doctor, which, in the end, he only accepted to make her stop begging him. The doctor diagnosed him a phase of depression due to the trauma of the past years. Brian also got prescribed medication same as the advice to attend a stress-management program. Brian neither took the medication, nor the advice. After almost four months without a job and hardly ever leaving his apartment, Cara started to become fed up with checking on him every now and then if he was still alive, because he wouldn't answer any of her calls. Eventually, she got him a part-time job as a substitute teacher at Halliday University, where, by this time, she had worked her way up to the board of directors, although he never did a teacher's training certificate. This was another thing he agreed to just to silence her, for he wouldn't even believe himself to have any teaching qualification at all. During all the time, there had been left one constant in his life, however. His daily visits at the hospital. Every day, he just watched Jewel in silence, wishing for her eyes to open up again. Although it meant to actively stand against his emotions, he knew it would be worse if he didn't see her at all, because she meant the world to him.

* CURRENTLY IN A COMA STATE * Real Name: Jewel Chava O'Neal Oasis Name: M!ssMarla Age: 17 Appearance:Real Self: Oasis Avatar: What You Do in the Real World: Last-year student at Ogden High School, sometimes volunteers in a practicum at Gregarious Simulation Systems for mostly auxiliary tasks although she could do more if she would let anyone know about her skills Residence: Parental home in Columbus, Ohio. Currently inpatient at the community Hospital Skills: Computer, a little bit of coding and hacking, genius in any kind of puzzles, writer of short tales and clever riddles that got anonymously and weekly published within the Oasis Weaknesses/bad habits: Fatally attracted to her best friend Drag0nSlay3r in the Oasis while being sure he sees no more than that in her especially since they don't know anything about each other's life in the real world, doesn't get sarcasm which leads people to hoax her in a playful way once they find out Frequent moods/expressions: Shy, introverted, placid, dedicated, open-minded, rather unconfident, keeps her life and affairs mostly to herself, has no real friends other than her dad in the real world and Drag0nSlay3r in the Oasis, content and happy with little, book and story nerd, sucker for old detective stories and really old movies back from a time where people had only black-and-white television, lover of everything Disney related Background/History: In the autumn of 2053, Jewel was born as the first and only planned child of Brian and Janet O'Neal. Since childhood she was raised rather untypically female, at least when it came to stereotypical activities. The reason for that might have started with the fact that her dad always wished for a son instead of a daughter, yet as soon as she was born, she was his little angel. Still, he hadn't given up on teaching their child things such as football and crafts. Jewel always had fun with those, especially because her dad not only was that but also her best friend. At the same time, she appreciated girls talk or just messing up with make up and stuff with her mom. Eventually though, Jewel focused more on activities on her own just like reading and writing, yet she would never say no to a head-to-head football match or a round of Mario Kart with her dad, as that reminded her that she had to leave her own little world at least at times. When she reached the age of 11, she overheard an argument between her parents and heard them talk about something that changed her inner life fatally. Her mother had been diagnosed with brain tumor. The little family had been given three more years until, in the winter of 2067, her being 14 years old, the disease took her away from them. While her dad put every effort into their daily life of paying the bills and running the household as good as he could, Jewel stopped reading and writing for herself but instead started to do it for research reasons. She dug deeper and deeper into background information about the Oasis and its founder James Donovan Halliday. Soon she learned everything about him, his life and death, and the Easter Egg hunt that had been won by a teenage boy with the name Wade Watts. Jewel read herself into the life of the Watts as well, which, at some later point, had her end up applying for a volunteer practicum at their company after school. While she fulfilled her auxiliary tasks with barely anyone taking notice of her, Jewel took all her chances to search for secret information she was sure to find somewhere. Information about James Donovan Halliday's avatar, Anorak. And before she knew it, Jewel had gotten herself into a twenty-four seven job, as even in her dreams her brain wouldn't stop the thinking, brooding and planning. What exactly that was, would remain a mystery to anyone but herself. Not even her best friend in the Oasis was aware of what she was about to do, nor where she was about to go. And then, on the 14th of May 2070, Jewel was finally heading for a whole new place to find her much longed-for answers. Or so she hoped at least. It was the same day that she was found lying on the ground of her room, with the VR-glasses around her eyes. She had fallen into a coma state. With no sign of a cause. Apparently.
