[OOC] [High-Casual]We Are Changed.

[iSuspect]

Congratulations. If your name was on the list, then you are chosen to participate in the government experiment called, "The Changed." If your name is on this list, please report to the high school office immediately. There you will be given further instructions.

Your body goes pale as you read this, for your name was on the list. You can no longer hear anything, fear has taken over. People are pushing you, but you can't feel it. Looking around, you notice the others hugging their friends, crying. As you make your way to the office, the other five join you. You're scared and surprised. Tears fall down your face, and you feel as though your throat is closing up. You were chosen to be changed. Entering the office, you see your parents. They too are crying. Bags are lined up against the wall, each having a name on it. You pick up yours. You don't even get the chance to say goodbye. Men in black suits come in, ushering you and the other five away.

Once the office doors close, you know that your life has just changed.

PLOT (In more detail)

You are one of the six that are chosen. They are sending you to a university that they call "School for the Unique." What they do there is;

1. Make the teenagers breath in a a gas that changes their genetics. The process is terribly painful!! They are given special abilities. Powers almost. Each teenager has a different power. (Example: Flying, Elemental [fire, water, earth, air, any element] Psychic, ect...)

2. Train the kids to learn their new powers

3. Make the kids fight each other to the death

4. The winner gets to go home, and their power is given to the U.S military to make super soldier

5. They (the scientists) can now control the world.

But something happens that the scientists do not plan. The six (you) escape! Now, they are searching for you.

As soon as you get out, something happens. Your abilities/powers are suddenly amplified, and much strong. It's the fresher air, it's the new found freedom. It doesn't matter...you're stronger, and ready to kill the bastards who changed you. A war is about to break loose.

Rules

1. Respect - This rule is the most important because we are all adults here, so can we please act like it. Also, respect my roleplay, rules, other people's characters and others, in general.

Name: Paulsen 'Paul' Thomason

Nickname:
Legion. Paul was given this nickname by his mother and father, specifically because of his IQ and thought process. At times, it seems as if multiple people are thinking at once in the teenager's brain, and since Legion means 'multiple' it kind of stuck with the boy.

18 years of age, senior in high-school. (18 / 12th Grade)

Gender:
Male

Sexuality:
While he has nothing against people of a different sexuality, Paul is strictly heterosexual.

---

"The Appearance..."

[- - -]

Description of Appearance:
Paul stands at a decent height of 6'1, weighing 197lbs and managing to keep a sharp, semi-muscular figure despite his interests in books and history, as he could often be seen on the track team or at the gym whenever he gets in a funk, either academically or emotionally. His skin is a medium-shade of brown, neither too dark, nor too light, with a chiseled jawline and an angular face. He has dark brown, almost black eyes, which are focused and narrowed most of the time, practically glinting with their bright determination and intelligence, along with an inner humor. His hair is cut really short to his head, while he himself is cleanly shaven, other than the neat, trimmed beard that outlines his jawline and chin. Despite every piece of him signifying that he takes care of himself 24/7, and that he's a neat freak, Paul doesn't really try to keep himself so clean and trim. It happens naturally.

Style:
Paulsen sticks to things that comforts him the most, or at least clothes that doesn't look stupid. His usual 'style' is regular jeans, t-shirts of darker, or white, colors, along with a collared, sleek suit jacket or a sweater vest with a collar. Paul also wears flat converse shoes, whichever ones allows him the ease of mind.

Distinct Markings:
Paul has a few scars along his upper torso, from his childhood, but other than that he's scar-free. He also finds tattoos to be...stupid, as they will wrinkle and shrivel as you grow older.

"Delve A Little Deeper..."

[- - -]

Likes:
Paul could seem distant, or disgruntled, some of the time, but there are quite a few things that he enjoys in life. For example...

| Peaceful moments by himself. | Hanging out with chill, or cool people. | Writing in different languages, reading, and practicing his penmanship. | Exercise, and jogging/swimming in particular. | Playing many types of video games, action/adventure games in particular. |

Dislikes:
| Loudmouthed idiots that ruins his peaceful time. | Illogical, ridiculous thinking, and people who rush in without a plan, even if it's a small one. | People who gets offended easily. | Anyone who would hurt his family. | People who talks with their mouths open. | People with sticks up their asses. |

Personality:
"Yeah...well...you're inbred. Hah."

Paul has a bit of emotional baggage locked away deep inside of him, mostly due to the things he has gone through in his life. Despite this, he keeps it to himself, managing to maintain his casual, laidback personality even with series of thoughts constantly overriding themselves in his mind and soul. When he was younger, Paul was a loud, antsy boy who always wanted to be the center of attention. Annoying - Hell, obnoxious even. He was disliked...a lot in middle-school, even though all he wanted was the attention he believed that he deserved. It all changed, of course, when he went to high school and realized that being an annoying idiot would get him no friends, and only hatred, dislike, and bullies. He changed for the better, becoming a generally more serious and liked guy because of it.

Paulsen is calm, laidback, and focused, with an over-casing of serious to seal the deal. He's generally quiet unless he feels the need to speak, or if he's spoken to, and even then he formulates words easily, with the same casual tone he keeps with everything. He isn't one to throw his problems or questions onto other people, but if someone wants to confess something to him, be it personal or a general question, he listens with honest ears, and in return, would give you an honest answer.

Honesty and bluntness is another thing. Paul won't lie unless he dislikes you, or doesn't trust you at all. Whenever asked something by people he's completely neutral to, or people he actually likes, Paul responds with the calm bluntness of a rampaging rhino. Whether or not it hurts your feelings, Paul speaks the truth, mostly to help the person asking the questions rather than hurting their feelings and causing drama, another thing that Paul hates with a passion.

Drama is something Paul dislikes, and it's very easy to realize why. Drama creates problems, and unneeded problems are annoying and complicated. While Paul enjoys puzzles or word-games, he attempts to cut the line whenever it crosses to personal and unrelated emotion shit. Some people may think that, since Paul is such a smooth-mouthed male with a sarcastic wit of a silver blade, it would be stupid for him to hate drama. Sure, Paul may enjoy minor quips and jokes, some in which may be offensive to certain people, especially with the language, but he smoothly lays off when he could see the victim getting really, really upset. Unless they're someone he dislikes. Then he makes them suffer.

In general, Paul is a laidback, 'chilled' teenager with a love for knowledge and videogames.

Strengths:
Paul is a very smart individual, managing to maintain a steady 4.0 throughout his highschool life, only dropping down to a 3.7 one year due to a very rocky time in 9th grade. He's also very mature, and despite the sarcastic and blunt comments/jokes that he drops out during certain situations, Paul is an overall serious person, and takes everything with a certain amount of caution and seriousness. He's also athletic, keeping up a regular training regime despite spending most of his time studying and/or gaming.

Weaknesses:
Trust.

Paul could joke around with you, talk to you as an equal, and generally be friendly if he's in a good mood, but it takes either an angelic person, or someone he likes right off the bat to gain his trust easily. If it's not any of the above, it will take a while for him to become truly used to you, and for him to trust you with anything about him. Likewise, if he doesn't trust you, you shouldn't trust him. Loyalty is earned, after all. Not given.

"The Talent..."

[- - -]

Mutation:
"Once I inhaled the gas, and the pain started...I could, over the sound of my choked screams, feel my brain internally expanding...and it was as if a veil was destroyed, allowing me to finally see."

The gas has given Paul an extraordinary ability. The ability...of Psychokinesis, though narrowed down to only a few applicants. He wields the power of telekinesis, telepathy (He can only talk to other through their mind, not read their thoughts), and the variants of those powers as well. Paul can command direct control of objects and lifeforms - physical, invisible, or even gaseous or liquid, and move them with his mind, though using his hands and arms to support the strain usually helps immensely. He can also crush objects, utilizing the blunt force of his telekinetic prowess. His telepathy allows him to utilize slight precognitive awareness, which gives him prior alerts to physical threats aimed towards his body.There's other uses for his power of Psychokinesis, including creating constructs with his telekinetic energy, and even enhancing his strength via mentally enchanting certain appendages.

- Telekinesis ~ Move, crush, pull, or generally affect things with your mind.

- Telepathy ~ Heavily increased reaction time, and the ability to talk to others through a mental link.

- Enhanced Intelligence ~ Brain is similar to a black hole. Paul was originally a 4.0 student, but his mutation has increased his intelligence to new levels.

Mutation Strengths:
As Paul's powers are firmly connected to his brain, whenever he is free of a headache or migraine, no matter how minor or severe, and when his brain is extremely fresh and free-thinking, his powers are amplified, as he can use more of his telekinetic powers when he has more brain power to work with.

Mutation Weaknesses:
To use his mutation effectively, Paul needs to keep a calm mind, even in times of great danger. Luckily, he's a very adaptive and calm individual, and keeping calm in even the face of death is easy enough, especially with his new heavily enhanced and organized brain. However, sharp, incredibly loud noises increases the heart-rate, and therefore, abrupt noises such as that could potentially disrupt his flow of power, if only temporarily.

"Delving A Little Deeper..."

History:
"It all started with...the boisterous screams of a traitorous woman. Oh, former-mom. You crazy lady, you."

From what he remembered, which was a lot considering his photographic memory, Paulsen was originally named 'Keenani', born to a lower-classed family back in Miami. His mother was a single parent, and a really, really bad mother. The lady had no job, if being a drug addict counter, and she was a super-alcoholic. Like, super. She would even go as far as to temporarily sell off her cheap, worn-down car for booze money.

But, carrying on,

It was obvious that the Lady, who shall go unnamed, didn't want her child. In fact, she was only impregnated with the annoying 'pest' because she had gotten drunk off her ass at some party, and had taken like ten men to bed that night. There was no way for her to buy diapers, bottles, milk, or even baby food. There were only two options for her at that time. Kill the baby, which would have just been terrible, or put it up for adoption. The second option was free, and wouldn't scar her for life, so with the baby wrapped in a torn, moth-infested sheet, the Lady took herself up to the adoption agency, drunk off her ass, and commanded for the secretary to put the baby 'back where it should have been'.

Long story short, she was arrested not even an hour later due to drunk driving, child neglect, and drug use. Keenani was, even with all of the uncaring love he had been given, still a cute baby boy, and was shortly put up for adoption minutes later after his mother was taken out of the agency, kicking and screaming, by burly police officers. There, in the adoption agency, he was clothed, properly fed, and taken to an orphanage to await any adoptionees.

The orphanage wasn't anything one would expect. At his first visit there, Keenani, now renamed Paulsen after various law-breaking statements written by the secretary, was rather amazed, even for someone as young as two years old. It was a bright place, with kids of all sizes and colors running around. He melded into the usual crowd, keeping to his room, and generally being inconspicuous.

It was when he turned 10 that he was finally adopted. He was happy to be accepted, finally, even if it were with people a shade or two whiter than him. He grew up an extremely smart boy, though he changed in middle-school due to hormones, and matured once more when he made it to high-school, or 8th grade in his case. During his time there, he learned to love his family immensely, even building a tight friendship with one of his cousins, John. Life was great.

"Will Paulsen Thomason report to the office?"

"Fuck my life."

Other:
He is the cousin of Johnathan Marr, despite the two having vastly different last names and appearances.

Age:
17. 12th Grade.

Description of Appearance:
Sabrina has long, raven colored locks of hair that cascade down to her mid-back - And no, it is not weave, it is actually her real human hair. She has chestnut brown colored eyes and they shaped perfectly round. Her skin is a mocha-caramel color and she doesn't want it darker so that is why she tries her best to keep it evenly toned. She has perfect, whiten, stain free teeth - When she smiles brightly, she really smiles brightly and it practically light up the room or mood. When she smiles or laughs, her cheekbones rises up into perfect little dimples that have been pinched so many times by her grandmother. Sabrina stands at about five foot seven and weighs about one-hundred and seventy pounds. When she wear her heels, she is at least six foot one.

Likes:
| Intellectual People. | People that know how to hold a conversation. | Food. | Eating, even though she doesn’t gain a pound. | Laughing. | Telling Jokes. | Reading. | Singing. | Writing. |

Dislikes:
| Dumbasses. | Smart Alecks. | People that can’t take a joke. | Yelling. | Smelly People. |

Personality:
{ +Intelligence. -Silly. +Cheerful. -Controlling. +Self-Confident. -Sometimes Rejects Change. }

Sabrina has always shown people her cheerful side, even when she sad. She has been offered many awards and even received many because of her cheerful, happy attitude. She is also self-confident and that she doesn't really need anyone else to tell her that she can do or she can be anything in life if she just put her mind to it. She knows all of that, so no one needs to tell her anything of the sort. The main trait of her personality that she ultimately hates is her controlling nature. She honestly doesn't know where this came from, well, she kind of does because she has always been controlling ever since she could speak. She truly hates it though but she'll make a great boss one day.

Strengths:
Sabrina is not really athletic or anything though she did tryout for cheerleading but didn't make the squad. She felt that the captain hated her and that is the reason she was picked. But Sabrina is excelling well in all of her classes, maintaining a 3.8 GPA. She is highly encouraging of her classmates and offers to tutor them or help them study when they have a major test or an exam coming up. Most people kindly accept her offer, others just look at her with their faces scrunched up and rolled their eyes, which she finds is extremely rude.

Weaknesses:
Her loved ones. That is her ultimate weakness. She can't stand to see someone hurt her love ones right in front of her and not do a damn thing about it. Sabrina may not be strong but she'll kick some ass in a heartbeat - Though she may not win either but she'll find a way to get a few punches in there.

"The Talent..."

Mutation:
Advanced Intelligence - Even though she is one of the smartest people in her class, she gained even more intelligence on certain matter of things.

Atmokinesis - Is the psychic ability to manipulate the flux of the atmosphere with the mind at will, resulting in a change of weather patterns and formation of freak weather conditions.

Mutation Strengths:
Focusing on the weather without too much noise or sound. She won't be able to concentrate effectively enough and could probably cause almost anything to happen if she doesn't concentrate. It is important that she has absolutely silent when she is trying to focus on the weather, in order to change the weather patterns to almost anything she want.

Mutation Weaknesses:
Her emotions. If her emotions get the best of her, she won't be able to use her abilities at all. Well, she could use them but it'll be best for everyone if she didn't.

"The Basics..."

Name: Esther Lark

Nickname: None due to the lack of creativity in her parents in name choices.

Age: 17 / 12th grade

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Asexual panromatic

"The Appearance..."

Description of Appearance

Esther has a light complexion as she never goes out much. She’s all of five foot three and about a hundred ten pounds, being a bit on the scrawny side. She lacks feminine curves, although doesn’t mind. Sometimes she can be mistaken for a boy, but once again, doesn’t mind. Her limbs are rather lanky, and don’t have much muscle.

Her face has a bit of a mature angular look to it, which is usually clear of most acne. Behind large prescription glasses, her eyes are a lovely dark brown. Like her eyes, her hair is the same brown, worn that of a messy bob, where the hair is pretty short in the back and longer in the front. Most of the time she doesn’t even style it and it can be described as a bed head.

Style

She wears mostly baggy clothes, or rather “boyish” clothes. Her clothes are mostly neutral tones, varying from browns to blacks to greys, or more diluted colors. Her outfits usually comprised of jeans, and a shirt, or a sweater with shorts, or a combination of the two. It doesn’t matter to her, as Esther doesn’t really care much about her outfits. However, she doesn’t want to stand out, hence no bright colors. Her shoes are simple slip-ons that are easy on her feet and can stand several months.

Distinct Markings

A few moles here and there, such as a small one by her left eye, and one on her neck.

"Delve A Little Deeper..."

Likes

Reading, doodling, the internet, quiet, and videogames

Dislikes

People, routines, gore, soda, and sunlight

Personality

Esther’s main trait would be apathetic. That goes for her looks, others’ looks, things going around her, or just in general. She is neutral towards people, not wanting to be on sides, such as that in petty fights.. Esther can also be known to be on the pessimistic side, being the kind of person who sees the glass as half empty. Matched with her uncaring attitude is her laziness. She’d much rather spend her time reading or surfing the web than taking a long walk on the beach.

Esther isn’t much of a people’s person, and can be a bit uncomfortable when around people for long periods of time. Given her reclusiveness, she can be rather socially awkward, so she doesn’t talk much as she has no idea what to say most of the time.

Strengths

She’s a whiz at technology and trivia. She’s fairly intelligent; however, hence the laziness, she doesn’t apply herself much in school, so she often gets low grades. Despite the social awkwardness, she can empathize others and their actions. She also tends to think things through, such as plans or situation.

Weaknesses

She cannot stand the site of gore or the talk of gore. When exposed to either, she’ll become sick to her stomach. This goes to the same to anything else she deems “gross”, such as childbirth, the human body in general, and already been chewed food. She’s also really fond of cute animals. Esther also tends to overthink things, such as something she could have said instead, and trivial details, like why the alphabet has to be in order. She also can't see squat without her glasses.

"The Talent..."

Mutation

-Invisibility- This allows her to disappear from sight.

-Force fields- Allows her to project an outward force for means of defense or other means, which gives off a greenish glow. It’s either that of an orb, or a wall. She can move the orb/wall, such as expanding it, or if she traps something in it, she can move both the field and the object.

Mutation Strengths

-Invisibility- She can hide from foes, or just people in general, which she tends to avoid. This would help her become stealthy. Esther can make things she touches do the same, not quite yet people but more specifically her clothes.

-Force Fields- It can block physical attacks. As she can move both forms of it, she can push things away.

Mutation Weaknesses

-Invisibility- Although she cannot be seen, she can be heard. This is most affected by her emotions as well, as she can take the phrase “wanting to disappear” quite literally, and if she feels either fear or sadness, she will vanish.

-Force fields- As she can move things inside the orb, heavier the object is, the harder for her to move. Expanding or moving the force fields drains her energy quicker, so it would take more practice if she wanted to shield others. This can also be slightly affected by her emotions, such as if she wants to shut people out, she can literally do this. They also don’t last very long

"Delving A Little Deeper..."

History

Esther was born to a well off, loving family. She never knew her father who had died of a serious illness when she was younger, but had her older brother and mother. Her brother is nine years older than her, and is very protective. Given so, she’s never had any trouble with bullies, or even school work, as he tried to help as best he could. Given the circumstances of her father’s death, her mother never really was there mentally. Of course she did her best with her kids, feeding them and providing for them, it was Esther’s older brother who mostly raised her.

In middle school, tragedy struck, and her mother had died in a terrible car accident. This caused Esther to sort of reel inside a shell and lock others out. Her brother had to take care of her after the incident which made them both orphans. Esther seemed to cut ties with people, not wanting to get close to them so it wouldn’t hurt if she lost them.

When high school rolled around, she managed to simply blend in and go about her own business as someone who no one really notices. That is, until she finds her name on the list to partake in the experiment. That was when her brother could no longer protect from danger.

Other

Kinda a mixture between Violet from Incredibles and Shadowcat.

@Termott: Spot saved. Welcome abroad!!

For the next person interested, if you could please make a character to balance things out that would be great. Thanks. :)

[Zordon]

iSuspect said @Zordon: -Bows down.- I did a Power Ranger roleplay a while back. Sorry. Anyways, welcome, welcome. Also, please replace that pic with a real person. Thanks. :)

I remember (and rechecked) that the characters need to be realistic but, I was not aware that it meant I could only use photos of real people. I can if you absolutely require it but, I try not use celebrities so that people have less of a reference and thus bias.

[iSuspect]

@Zordon: Doesn't technically have to be a celebrity - Just a real person.

[Zordon]

@iSuspect: Picture changed.

@Zordon: Thank you so much. Sorry but with this type of roleplay, I would much prefer real images.

Name:
Johnathan 'John' Rourke

Age:

Gender:
Male

Sexuality:
He doesn't much like anyone, he thinks that if he meets someone who interests him enough that he actually loves them then he'll just go with them.

"The Appearance..."
[- - -]
Description of Appearance:
John stands at 5 foot 11 inches and weighs 154lbs. He is rather thin and is often told to eat more because of this. He has a small bit of muscle from his time at the gym but its rather minor. He is rather pale but not so pale as to be pure white. His skin is only slightly paler than average is what im trying to say. He has blue eyes that one could match with the ocean in hue. His hair is the most defining part of him. It is shaved at the sides and long at the top. He styles his hair into an impressive height.

Style:
John usually wears rather bland shirts on a day to day basis. They are mostly either black, white or striped and are only covered by a jacket when the weather is bad. He always wears jeans and despises loose fitting clothing like 'joggers'. He usually wears sneakers more often than not.

Distinct Markings:

Likes:
-Books
-Writing
-Music
-Old movies
-Various people in history

Dislikes:
-People who dislike certain genres of music
-Most people
-The monarchy
-Hypocrites
-Boring people

Personality:
John is a strange chap to say the least. He doesn't get on with most people and prefers himself as company rather than others. When he actually finds someone he liked enough to call them a 'friend' he will most likely keep in contact as much as possible. He finds most people idiotic or boring and so finding someone who he doesn't consider a total idiot is sort of an event for him. He idolizes various people from the past, like Steve Mcqueen or Johnny Cash.

He seems to consider himself worse than he is. He thinks of himself as an annoying person who should socialize more and as such is rather depressed at times. He usually just wants to read or listen to music, and dislikes people who pester him when he's doing such.

Strengths:
John is very smart in certain areas. Areas like History, English, French and others that interest him he has a very high knowledge of. Other things like Maths or Computing that he has no interest in are a bit rocky for him. He has also developed a rather good running speed, which he developed after running away from bullies so many times.

Weaknesses:
His dislike of most people provides a lot of downsides for him. He doesn't get along with a lot of people and so he doesn't have many allies. This provides many issues to tackle in his life like bullies or people wanting to beat him up.

Mutation:
After inhaling the gas, John gained the power over the use of a 'Ballistic scream'. This means that at any time he wants he can open his mouth and let loose a scream that is able to destroy a certain range of things depending on how loud the scream is. Along with this, he gained telepathy so that he could actually talk to people without killing them.

Mutation Strengths:

He can talk to others selectively and can therefore not be heard by certain people if he so wishes. This provides effective when he wants to use stealth or he just wants to talk about someone behind their back while in front of them.
Ballistic Scream:
The most obvious advantage of this is the offensive, he can obliterate things by just saying "Ravioli" if he so wished.

Mutation Weaknesses:
Telepathy:
If he's absent minded while speaking to someone, he may let something he was thinking about let slip within their mind by accident.
Ballistic Scream:
He cannot speak without harming someone or something. This has taken a great toll on his morale and made him more depressed than he already is.

History:
John was born in Manchester, England and spent the most part of his young life there. His life had an absence of extended family as they mostly all lived in America which was also where his parents came from. One might think that he would have grown up with an American accent because of his parents, but his Mancunian friends got rid of it somehow and replaced it with the signature Manchest accent.

John had very little friends while growing up. He had two best friends and that was about it. He spent almost every day after primary school at one of their houses if he didn't have something going on after school. If he wasn't playing with his two friends he would have been either reading or listening to music. His father raised him on Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison and even named him after Cash himself. John remained with the two country stars being some of his favourites, but grew to have his taste evolve into various other artists like David Bowie or Pulp. This affected him in his teen years as not many others shared his peculiar taste and bullied him for that among other things.

His highschool life was filled with bullying and distraught. The only subjects he really excelled in were English, History and French. The others he was either average at or was flunking. Along with this, he was bullied for his lack of interest in sports and dislike of most people. His two friends couldn't even help him either, as they were moving to a different school soon after. He gained a friendship with his cousin, Paulsen over the internet. He desperately wanted to find out more about his extended family and contact Paulsen through a social media network. They soon began chatting and gained an almost immediate friendship if not just for the fact that Paul was one of the only people John did not hate immediately. John later had to move to America after his parents Visa expired, and attended the same highschool as Paul even if John has only just joined.

Already everyone -Crack whips.- Let's get those bios done as soon as possible, please. :)

[Soul]

Ah, of course. I may finish mine tomorrow, after church, if I don't tonight.

Mr.Pink is a friend on Skype, and we've decided that our characters will be cousins. Hope that's okay.

[iSuspect]

That is perfectly fine by me.

You guys must've read my mind because I did want two characters to be related.

[Soul]

Maybe we did.

Anyways, can you explain to me what you mean by this:

Mutation Strengths:
[What makes the mutation stronger than what it is?]

Do you mean...

"A diamond alien walked into a diamond field, and felt himself get ten times stronger"

That kind of deal?

[iSuspect]

@Soul: Yes, that is basically what I mean. And by weakness, what is their kryptonite? I hope I spelled that word right.
