To Central City. I hope you enjoyed the trip in, wheter you came by car or train, or airplane. This is the year 2217, and we sure do have a vibrant economy, a triving social life and some of the highest tech on the planet of Mars. Take a walk through Centennial Park, seeing all the cool and creative sculptures on display and enjoy the many fountains. Or walk down the beach at Navy Pier. The city is only as exciting as you make it. So come, visit the famed Central City." You either live here or you traveled here... When your life spun on its head. In the span of 24 hours a bomb went off, the city was put under quarantine and thousands of people died... The one's responsible for this so called Evo Bomb, the Vectors have assumed control over the city. They use the might of the subjects, twisted amalgamations with insane abilities, who are cruel, vicious and absolutely insane. But not as nearly crazy as the Vectors themselves. All but the one who calls herself the Nomad. "But worry not, mortal. For as long as there is hope, there is a way. The Evo Bomb set forth a change in all things... Advancing them beyond what one would possibly believe. You who have survived, have gained an amazing gift. The choice is now yours: Survive, or Thrive." [hr] This is a story about change. About a city under development. Taking place in a future era, it has elements of a post-apocalypse world. The bomb only took out a few buildings, but sent out a virus that changed the very DNA of those in the city, giving them powers. There are some, however who have no powers, called Shells. The story takes place roughly six months after the Evo Bomb was used during New Years, and the city has all but gotten back to a new "normal" [hr] Now... Onto the powers... The virus changes those with a strong will. And [i]always[/i], gives powers based on your [b]personality[/b]. To demonstrate I have The Nine Kings who represent this: [hider=Lawful King and Queens] Lawful Moral: Orion. He is kind, but aloof, often found wandering about his area giving a helping hand to those who need it. He has Celestial Embodiment, which allows him to call down Angels and use Holy energy with the Touch of Heaven. Lawful Neutral: Utopia. She is described as distant, calm and very tactful. She has Regeneration, which allows her to regain lost body parts and her minor power of Harbringer of Destiny gives her the ability to astral project. Lawful Unmoral: Haven. She is cold, overbearing and vain. She cares not for those whom are under her. She is more than enough to handle a threat with her Stasis and Void's Gift. [/hider] [hider= Chaotic Kings and Queen] Chaotic Moral: Sol. A boisterous man with a vibrant smile who hosts the most parties. Even with the Threat of the Subjects he's got Solar Embodiment and the Curse of the Enflamed to keep him and his own from harm, most of which he causes himself. Chaotic Neutral: The Mad Titan Mack. He is a true nihilist who gives zero fucks for most people. But for the ones he calls his own, he is a fearsome opponent with his Nihilistic Touch and Eyes of the Mad God. Besides this, he is hailed as a strong leader, and a brilliant strategist. Chaotic Unmoral: Ah, Luna... What can be said of this Queen is that she is ever changing... Except for her desire to destroy. Twin sister of Sol, she has Lunar Embodiment and Enchantress... Beware of her web of sabatouers and spies. [/hider] [hider=Neutral Kings and Nomad] Neutral Moral: Nomad. She is patient, kind and efficient. Easily in the top three Kings, she has Telekinesis and Telepathy. She never wanted what the Vectors did and renounced them, causing them to declare her an enemy. She loves life and refuses to take lives. True Neutral: Only one can claim the crown of the High King. And he is Dragon. The The man who sits on his throne and judges all the others. Balance is what he represents and it is expressed in his Emperor Dragon Embodiment. This fearsome man is one of a kind, and like all dragons, he's demanding, calculative and does what he wants... And never holds back. Nuetral Unmoral: Nexus, the swiftest man in the city. He's got the looks, the money, and the power to break people who don't do as he says. His Flashpoint and Slipstream mark him as a powerful enemy, or a useful ally. [/hider] [hr] Rules: No godmodding. There is always something stronger than you. I'll say it right here: No Meta is stronger than the Two Kings of Creation and Nomad, the last Vector. Keep it real. You're surviving, not living in a mansion. There will be some swearing, some mention of gore... But keep your pants on, people. Fade to black or take it to PMs. [hider=Now... A list of restricted Powers, ask to use them] Ergokinesis Telekinesis Suggestion Telepathy Spatial Manipulation(only useful for self) Blood Manipulation(Only useful for self.) Physiology Changes: No Dragons, already got one, but go wild. [/hider] Now...

He is patient, steady and firm in his ideals and actions. He wields his might like a true King of Old, many jokingly calling him King Arthur. He is the reason the citizens started calling their leaders Kings and Queens, despite several of them not taking well to it. Orion avidly fights for his people, and for others. He believes that those who have power must use it responsibly, ethically and most importantly, safely. He despises those who use their Gifts for selfish gain, those who act rashly and in anger and those who commit violence against innocents. He spares them no mercy, though will not kill unless it is a necessary measure. His people view him as just and fair, if a bit aloof.

His father, Peter, worked in the Docks, hauling and packing stock for the Corps. His mother, Artemesia, worked as a clerk for NovaCorp. Orion was an only child as his parents had trouble conceiving, though they adopted two more children by the time Orion turned seven. Orion was a troublemaker, though quickly learned how to talk his way out of almost any situation. he'd regularly fight the bullies at his school, and grew to be one of the bigger kids, making the sight of him cause them to flee before a fight started. He came out to his family and friends early, at the time when his future husband, Vic, started his transition. Vic and Orion were inseperable since childhood. Twin souls, Orion did his best to protect him from bullies and his family who refused to accept him. Orion proposed when they turned 18, and they married a year later. They conceived two children, Apollo and Andromeda, a year after their marriage. Orion earned his degrees, doing his best to support his husband and children. He was loved by his community, moving with his family to District One where Vic was offered a position with Central Hospital to study as a doctor. Orion finished his degrees and was elected as a city official, overseeing the Humanitarian aid. In the year 2185, Orion was elected as the city's youngest Mayor. He led the city for the maximum length of four terms, 20 years. The people loved him, and he sat at the Head of Mars Senate and on the Interplanetary Council until the EvoBomb detonated, where he was forced to quarantine along with the entire City.

She earned two more for her work in Molecular Biology and Genetics by age 38. She married fellow researcher, Tau Hollis(changed to Sung since she had won a bet), and they wanted to wait for children. Alanya joined AGRE(Advanced Genetics Research and Experimentation), one of the few MegaCorps who had a foothold in Central City at age 29. Tau joined her shortly after, and together they worked on the Evolutionary Enhancement Compound(EEC[pronounced Eek]). Their work culminated on that fateful day when Vector One, Osmund Fremorrow, unleashed it upon the City. In the ensuing chaos, Alanya could not find her husband, who is presumed dead.
