The V's [Closed Recruitment]

[AidanRP]

 

Variant: a form or version of something that differs in some respect from other forms of the same thing or from a standard.

We're Different. Really.

When Viperial Fell, Jaden and some few former members stuck together. Tyler Lorenze and Jaden became closer than ever before, and became brothers in ways they had not in the duration of Viperial.

After the dissapearance/death of Luke Runningham, Jaden became a reluctant leader. Tyler assisted him in running the crew, and slowly some left, some joined, and inveitably, some died. Unsure of where to take the group, Jaden asked Tyler for advice. His reply? "Fuck it." There were a lot of fallen groups across the lands, pieces of a puzzle that no longer went together. Unintentionally, these are the people that flocked to Jaden and Tyler's following. It was many months in the shadows, many months of hardships, and many months of ready to just give up. But eventually, after the crash, they stabalized. Shortly after day 975, the group began to rise oncemore. When they finally felt comfortable once more, they had a tight knit group.

Dillon - a brit gangster with a dark past.

Paul - a gruff American with combat skills from unknown experiences.

Brooke - a shy but deadly woman.

Jake Powers - American Gang Banger with a taste for blood.

These were the founders of what became the V's.

That's what truly makes us special - the lack of unity. We're all variables in our own way. Each and every one of us found our way one way or another. We survived. Many knew each other long before the founding, some new, but all together in one common goal ; survival, no matter the cost. After the fall of old empires - remnants remain - with nowhere left to go. Some say that's reckless, some say its dangerous, but to us its family.

By Day 900, the founders hat met - Jaden and Tyler were acquainted.

By day 950 the Idea was formed. - They formed the path for their new group

By Day 1000 they were ready to move forward. - The members were selected.

We had passed day 1000. - The group was born.

Jaden removed a purple cloth from his bag, and wrapped it around his arm before throwing a bundle of the same cloths in front of the rest."Enough. Enough of trying to find unity, enough of trying to find a place to fit in. We don't fit - and that's what makes us bind together in our own special way."

"Fuck the past, fuck the future, let's live for now and see where that gets us"

Some came from the past of Viperial, some the Mafia, and some no groups at all. It didn't matter, because that's what made them special.

We're Different. Really.

The Variants came together with the common goal of survival, but that evolved.

Over time, everyone within this group had made their own observations of the world they now found themselves in, what was right, what was wrong, what was fair, what was not. But they never had a say in it themselves. That changed with the V's. In this world, what is needed, is Balance. Far too often wars in this land are brought upon by an imbalance of power. Someone sits on top, and someone else wants to take the throne - it ends in death on a massive scale, and more often than not, nothing is resolved.

The goal of The Variants is to be an Equalizer in said conflicts. They will analyze these fights, pick a side they agree with, and offer their support to that side. By doing this, The V's are able to pseudo fight their own battles, and create a climate which is comfortable for themselves.

The V's wish to prevent parties from getting too powerful, and will intervene themselves should one faction begin conquest. We call these - "High Risk Factions" or, HRF.

HRF's are defined by their quest for power, whether this be from a political standpoint, or by force. HRF's will be closely observed until a point in which they subside, or a point in which the V's must intervene.

There is no right, there is no wrong, only balance.

and with balance,

comes peace.

No offense, but your goals are pretty generic.

I feel like you should at least have one goal which doesn't fall into the following categories:

1. Basebuilding
2. Get more members
3. Get guns
4. Find groups

Thank you for the feedback - I know. I’m trying to update our goals as we speak and have added a few to better represent the vibe I am trying to provide for this group. But the initial goals were very generic.

Please change the font size! I feel like I'm a first grader reading my first book Good luck with this!

[Noble]

A quick change, you got two secitons of IC goals.

[PublicVoodoo]

Id like to see a few more SMART goals added to the list before pushing this to acceptance. Maybe think of some sub goals that could follow the main ones you already have or maybe recent IC interactions/groups on the server could add some goals to the list.

[AidanRP]

@Hammond fixed. Im retarded lol

[AidanRP]

Edited goals 

[kalyri]

entertaining encounter with you boys today.  enjoyed it, you guys made the situation tense but not overly tense.  enjoyed hearing about what you all are about ICly and i'm hoping to run into you guys again when more of us are around instead of just me and blisna with luka who seemed to the focus of your attention.

 

good luck with the group guys

[Mexi]

Seeing as it’s been updated since Ducky’s last post I’ll throw my 2 cents in..

- You haven’t really expanded your goals past basically repeating them just with different words, still come across as rather generic. Try to come up with something that is specific for your group and one that wouldn’t match against others, that also allows you guys to push your own RP as you work to the goal date set.

- OOC Goals 2 and 3 are conflicting. TRUE NEUTRAL but also providing good Hostile RP? Also IC goals D, E, F and I aren’t ‘True Neutral’ either. Might wanna get together and read over things and brainstorm a little bit more, seems rather contradictory and not a solid idea for the direction of the group.
 

Also take a peek at the SMART Goals section for group requirements, it’ll help when it comes to adding/ editing the ones you currently have.

My definition of true neutral is it can go either way depending on the circumstances, and when the circumstances come to us being hostile towards another group, it is also a goal of mine for our hostile rp to be good. I don’t find that contradicting. The exact quote is “Provide good hostile roleplay when required”.  
 

In regards to IC goals D.E,F, and I, I believe this is basically explained by the same explanation above. There are some groups, in which we will be hostile to. There are others, in which we will protect. There is a complex morality to our group which I don’t feel the need to put out there right now to be meta’d but have faith that it is there. Our fluctuation between hostilities with some and relations with others is a part of the abstract ideals that make us V’s. If you have any sort of ideas on how to word that less confusing in the goals section, please leave further feedback.

I assure you, it is not. Unfortunate you see it that way but w/e. Hopefully the RP in game will show you otherwise!

Happy to prove you wrong in game  

[AidanRP]

Edited some goals, added some, removed others.

I am working on a addition that should help alleviate some confusion around our morality and goals. Should be up later today or tomorrow.

not sure who you are bro but if i was asking for someone to roast our group id post that in a different thread man. 
Like they said above we can all prove that in game if we ever meet.

After reading the goals and the backstory multiple times, I still don't understand what this group is really meant to be. The goals seem very generic and the backstory seems to just explain the characters rather than the actual group, also there is a lot of talk about "Viperial" without explaining what that is or means.

You called AndreyQ's comment a roast but after reading the group thread his comment seems very valid.

Anyways good luck, and this was in no means meant to be a roast, but what I have observed.

[TheMcgregor]

Best of luck with the group. You shouldn't make a group to impress people it should be made based on a vision you had for the group and take it where you want to. Constructive criticism is fine yes but nobody can say what is right or wrong and at the end of the day EVERY single group on the server is generic one way or another.

 Keep at it and keep working on your goals and if you enjoy what you are doing then don't change it just make sure you find ways to stay motivated because its very easy for dayZ to go stale when you don't feel like you have any real direction.

 

Best of luck.
