Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Character Heist is a roleplay thread set in the Character Development Thread universe.In a seemingly random string of arrests, characters from all reaches of the world find themselves in prison, in the same jail cell - where they meet with their mysterious benefactor by whose actions orchestrated their "framing", and is now calling upon them to help botch a franchise of Casinos. The Victorian(R) name will be on merger with Trinity, and our benefactor M. Kobayashi doesn't like that. He wants to sabotage the deal, stealing the goodwill diadem in trade which shall place at the grand opening of the Trinidad Casino in Las Vegas. How it is accomplished, our benefactor doesn't care. As long as you manage to ruin relations without tracing the act back to him.Once you are released, you are given two weeks to prepare for the caper. During the wait, our benefactor will be helpful in providing a safehouse, with all the necessary resources you need in order to pull it off. (Don't go looking the gifthorse in the mouth, however.) You can write our characters practising research, schematics, logistics and the strategy of ruining the merger deal.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The rewards will be immeasurably great. Apart from taking the diadem, our benefactor allows us to keep all of the collected loot we find, to be split according to group decision. In case some people feel unwilling - our benefactor also has a nasty stick to provide motivation.This shared story thread will draw upon the classic Heist genre, with the added twist of having characters from various worlds and stories participate, showing off their espionage skill sets. Our characters, being strangers to one another, must coordinate their efforts in order to successfully achieve the Casino heist.The thread can be found here. It began in July 2011 and ran for two months before reaching a conclusion.

Extremely Short Time Span: Averted. Most Character Development Threads take place in less than twelve hours, due to Webcomic Time. Heist however is aimed for at least two weeks.

More Dakka: The practicality of which is fiercely contested, mostly on Pragmatic Villainy grounds. Rob is the most adamantly anti-gun, though Yuki, Daisuke, and Alice support him.

Even Evil Has Standards: Alice refuses to kill Shinji, not because he's agreed to stop fighting but because his son Daisuke is present. And when snipers try and kill Daisuke, she, Viper, and Python enter a Tranquil Fury.

Superpower Lottery: Gant won it. With the exception of Alice's "old friend", all the other characters are quite reasonably terrified of Gant's power, though Alice is dubious about Gant's chances against the New Powers... assuming they exist.

Shout-Out: The name of the Caligula, a neutral hotel where various characters have rooms, is a reference to the hotel in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Caligula's Palace, which in turn references Caesar's Palace in Real Life Las Vegas. Alice jokes that her friend Isaac should get the Pepsi logo tattooed on his shoulders.

Can't Hold Her Liquor: Alice swears she has a high alcohol tolerance "for her weight," but given how little she weighs, that doesn't mean much. Has results both expected and otherwise.
