Bad Habits
Fever - Peggy Lee
It's 1958, and America has become the paradise of suburbia. Forget city living – after two wars nearly back to back, Americans have had enough of hustle and bustle and, well, just plain rudeness. Beatniks? They can hit the road. There's no room for booze and drugs in Mabel's neighborhood. It's back to nuclear family values within the standard household. It's the 1950s, after all, and the country believes it's achieved the highest moral high ground.
Except the country thought the same thing during the Prohibition. Ring a bell?
There are no speakeasies or backyard juke joints to hide the nation's sins this time around, but it doesn't mean the moral fallacies of man have faded away. People have just gotten smarter about hiding their little indiscretions. Behind those plastic, domestic housewife smiles hides a woman with just enough wrongdoing on her hands to put her right down there with the rest of us sinners. And you know what they say – what comes around, goes around.
This story is about the war on sinners…and getting even.
The two aren't mutually exclusive, by the way–war and revenge. One's just as ugly as the other, but war has the makeup of patriotism and morality to paint over its sins. It's how the Americans continue to gloss over the Cold War like it isn't the dirty deed that it is. But revenge? It's a nasty business. It doesn't always get meted out properly, but Karma has a way of getting around to all things eventually.
Karma–have you met her? Not the nicest broad, but her legs more than make up for it. It's the silver lining in the cloud for the poor suckers that have to rendezvous with her agency. She's all about making sure Tom, Dick, and Stanley get their just desserts, and she sure isn't picky about how it gets done. Some people say she's been running her agency since long before the war; her agents seem to keep coming from thin air. Some are ex-government agents, but most are like you – the suckers with a moral rap sheet so long that they were offered a deal: work for Karma and get the red out your ledger. It's either that, or fall back into the same mess that got you tied up with Karma in the first place. Because let's face it…
You've got some bad habits.
Hi everyone! I'm Kuno the menace, back with another rp. Bad Habits is a spy thriller with some – dare I say it – supernatural undertones. You'll be playing as a poor agent of Karma, an agency specifically designed to punish folks who need a good, strong dose of comeuppance. Unfortunately your character is working in order to correct a wrong of their own, so no turning your nose up at assignments! You're working for Karma until your sentence is done.
Don't be fooled by the melodramatic tone! There'll be plenty of fun and humor in this pre-Bondesque adventure, albeit dark at times. Players can expect:
I'll open up the discord once I've got enough interest here in the thread. Have any questions? Tag me down below!

- Action & Heists
- Swingin' Music
- Too many references to I Love Lucy
- Old-fashioned humor
