Verthaven:
A Bloody Paradise





This story is set in the middle of the summer, and in a very peculiar universe. The same technological advancements and events have taken place. However, a strange condition has occurred that has given people God-like powers that defy the laws of science itself. Granted by a mysterious green energy that resides inside of them. These people have been around for two centuries, until they came out of the shadows nearly fifty years ago. Since then, they've became a growing part of society. Strictly regulated by the NEST organization, most of these enhanced humans are no different from the average human. They wear no capes, no cowls, they are average citizens that simply want to live their lives. They go to school, they get jobs, they have fun. And they are everywhere.

This story in particular is set in a sunny californian city called Verthaven... The Sunny city of dreams and heroes. They couldn't be anymore wrong. Called a mixture of New York, Miami, San Francisco, and Venice, this watery city is paradise to some people, the perfect summer vacation spot. They rarely note the rampant crime and sinister organizations working in the background. Now is the time where they put their plans in motion, and like dominoes, the city will be brought to its knees. This story centers around the trials and tribulations of the Metahumans of Verthaven. Their choices and involvement in what will change the city.

You can be one of these characters with superpowers. Of any background, and ability. Remember, power corrupts, but only if you let it. It is entirely up to you what you'll use your supernatural power for. Robbing banks, gaining strength, or helping the world for the better.

Choose your battles carefully, and your allies with even more care. Since all actions have consequences... Can you be sure who will follow you?



Welcome to my newest RP, Verthaven. The above should give you a good idea of what the RP is about (Much more info will come later). The basic gist of this RP is that it's a character-focused slice of life RP where people live in a beautiful, yet dangerous, coastal paradise of a city. This is a somewhat linear sandbox game, Where players are encouraged to form their own subplots, and stories - all while I work towards a larger overarching plot.

Feel free to place interest, and ask any questions. I have the OP completed, but I figured that I should get interest before I put it up.





I know I started this in the casual section twice, but I feel as if it'll really find it's target audience in the Advance Section.

Looks intriguing, I'll declare interest! So, when you say abilities, what perchance do you mean? Do you intend to focus more on elemental things, simpler things like enhanced physical abilities, or more wild things reminiscent of Magic? Or something else altogether?

Thing is, I'll allow pretty much any kind of power long as it isn't outright magic. Think of X-Men, or the InFamous series.

Would there be different degrees of ability, something that could be trained and strengthened, or is it more you get what you're born with kind of powers?

All the above, actually. Powers develop over time and usage of them, so they can be trained. Someone who had their power up until their elder years could very well be a master.

And, some peeps are born with their power, but it's uncommon to say the least.

  • Superrrrr Regeneration

Here's my question. Are we starting totally over, or are we picking up where we left off?

Mostly rebooting in another section - After talking with the squad, we figured that it'd be better off in the Advance.

Here's my question. Are we starting totally over, or are we picking up where we left off?


I decided (due to a lack of other ideas) we're going to pick off a little bit after where we left off. I'm going to do my best to summarize what happened in a way that doesn't require anyone to read the old IC.
