[CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE]
SURVIVAL SIM // CO-OP
...//You are shipwrecked on a deserted island with nothing but the clothes on your back and whatever amount of wit you possess. There are plenty of resources available for the harvesting - berries, rabbits, heck, even the flowers are edible in a pinch. A deep gloom hangs over the island, however, even during daylight hours. Somehow, you get the feeling you don't want to be without a light source after the sun goes down. Can you find enough to eat, locate a suitable shelter, and gather enough resources to keep your campfire going before dark?
CO-OP: Work together to gather resources, cook dinner, and survive the night!

PLATFORMER // CO-OP
...//You find yourself the star performer in a theater filled with a myriad of intricate, maze-like death-traps. Your mission is to use your wits and acrobatic prowess to leap, climb, drop, and cartwheel to safety within the allotted time-frame. If you perform well, and collect enough of the secret tokens hidden throughout the level, you will advance to the next stage. If you perform badly, you'll have to try again. The only way out is by advancing forward, so failure is not an option!
CO-OP: Help your partner leap, climb, drop, and cartwheel to safety! The odds of beating the stage within the allotted time are much better with a friend.

FPS // CO-OP
...//A mystery lurks in an abandoned underwater city. The citizens are gone - fled, dead, or worse. Those who remain are mindlessly antagonistic, drug addicts whose humanity has sloughed away in the face of their addiction; they are mere shells of the people they once were, and they won't abide your trespassing. Your only option is to kill or be killed as you advance through partially flooded buildings, abandoned shopping malls, and empty city streets. There are a plethora of weapons at your disposal, from bludgeoning weapons to firearms. Ammunition is unfortunately less so, a scarce luxury in this underwater death-trap. You might use it as you find it, but it may be more wise to save it for the fight up ahead. It's probably going to be a big one.
CO-OP: Explore the watery city side-by side, watching each other's backs and murdering the heck out of anyone who tries to murder you!

FARMING SIM // CO-OP or PvP
It's a peaceful life in the valley. Everyone in the little village knows everyone else, and crime is something that happens in other places. Life is simple and slow-paced, and that's how the villagers like it. However, the annual autumn Harvest Festival is coming up, which means competition between friend and foe alike is at an all-time high. It's up to you to grow the biggest, bestest pumpkin and show up all the other country bumpkins on the village square floor.
CO-OP: Work together to raise the biggest pumpkin anyone has ever seen! Combat various dangers to your crops together - moles, mice, wild deer, everything that goes on four legs is keen to ruin all of your hard work, and your chance for glory!
PvP: Competition is at its most fierce between PCs, obviously. Sabotage between participants is frowned on by the village council, but only the sabotage they hear about.

ACTION/ADVENTURE // CO-OP or PvP
Darkness overshadows the land, and the only hope of combating it rests firmly upon your shoulders! Take up a sword and shield and stab, slice, leap, and parry your way through a land filled with menial side-quests and dangerous mini-dungeons. The only hope for restoring order and light to the world is to rescue the far-away princess, whose royal authority is the key to evil's defeat and world peace.
CO-OP: Stab, slice, leap, and parry your way through dangerous obstacles side-by side, watching each other's backs as you do so!
PvP: To the one who manages to rescue the princess first go the spoils! Probably! Stab, slice, leap and parry your way through the world's dangers, stabbing your opponent in the back somewhere along the way if you're able to do so!

Well, I mean...I'm not being paid to look and sound like this anymore, soooo...
no subject
[And Raven thought he had problems, but this really takes the cake. And it really seems like too weird a story for this guy to just be yanking his chain.]
Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I figured the only kinda person that would go through with somethin' like that would be someone with total loyalty to their boss... or whatever.
no subject
[He shrugs again, and flips over to the next item in his inventory...which is a large, heavy pipe wrench.
...Well, it's no gun, but it's better than his fists.]
Trust me, it's been a couple years now, and that's been plenty of time to regret my life choices.

[Raven's had a brief look through his own inventory, but he's going to figure out the very basics of using his pistol before he looks at the other stuff dumped in his inventory. (Grenades? What the heck are those?) He looks ahead at their surroundings, then back at Jack.]
All right, ready ta go, uh... What should I call ya?
[It's an invitation to say if he has a preference for his real name or a fake one, now that he's apparently free of his boss around here.]
no subject
[His hesitation about using his real name is less to do with being previously legally forbidden to speak it and more to do with not really wanting to use that name while his face looks the way it does. Maybe it's a weird hang-up, or maybe it's not...he doesn't have any precedent for it, but it is what it is. If nothing else, he's used to answering to "Jack" by now anyway, so, there's that.]
And I'm ready to go when you are, uh...?
[What's ur name, sir??]
