[b]Current Status: [/b] [color=fff200]Temporarily Closed[/color] [img]http://firstlabs.net/public/uploads/laboratories/14.jpg[/img] [i]Scientists have always been stretching as far as they could go. Most of the time, their work benefited humanity - improving living conditions, life spans, and way of life. But some, push in other ways. Some for the joy of unrestricted research, others for the money, and still others because they were forced. It was a secret project - unbeknownst to the world. Bordering unethical and even a bit inhuman, it was kept on the down low. Decades of research, billions invested, and many failures but it finally paid off. They had created life - well at least manipulated the current strands of DNA to make a superhuman. The wake of dead bodies and failed subjects were countless but none of it mattered now. It had been done. The ultimate soldier. A trained assassin and spy that would obey their beck and call. Perfect for military use or secret organizations. The weapon did all that they hoped it would do. Extremely intelligent it flew through the lessons of mathematics, science, history, computers, and anything else assigned to it. In fighting - it become faster and more powerful as it aged. Able to on skilled ex-special forces one on one. With super speed, enhanced senses and incredible reflexes the weapon was turning out as they hoped. Survival - the weapon was able to blend in no matter where it was dropped - the forest, city, ocean and somehow manage to survive and get back to base. The creators were not stupid. They knew that precautionary steps should be in place in case a fail safe was ever needed. The small implant by the brain stem took care of that. Able to be remotely activated, it would cause a small explosion that would effectively kill the weapon. But only a few really thought it was necessary. Along with training in education, fighting, and survival - the weapon underwent severe mental conditioning. From even before birth it was fed information and subliminal commands to ensure the utmost obedience. Thus, when everything went wrong, no one saw it coming. No one knew why or even how the weapon managed to escape. Several people paid for the blunder but the powers that be knew that they had to get the weapon back - dead or alive. But even with a fail safe, they had to find the weapon first. The ultimate spy - the survivalist of the survivors, the weapon completely fell off the grid. But that didn't stop them. They would find the weapon. They would bring it back in and "fix" the issue. They would see what happened, wipe it and then start over. Only as a last resort would they use the kill switch. It was after all - worth billions. [/i] Hey all! If you are still reading then thank you. I'm looking for something similar to Dark Angel, Cybersix, x23, weapon x style RP. Or for laymen's terms: genetic experiment gone awry. Military and/or secret organization wanting to track down their weapon, etc. etc. etc. :) I added a couple options that can kickstart a brainstorming session of where we want to take it. But first things first: [hider=Rules] (yeah, yeah, I know...) Romance I have no problems having romance involved (in fact romance is part of life so could be interesting). However, if we do romance we get PG-13 and fade to black. I am 26 but I don't want to write/read certain things. However, there might be alluding to adult themes - thus the 18+ requirement. As for pairings - I only do M/F. Though I can (and will) double, I prefer my writing partner be female if we including anything romantic (no offense ;) ). Violence There will be violence. I'm not a big fan of gore so it won't be extreme but people will die. Everything is not rainbows and kittens - though both are awesome :) Language I don't personally use certain words in my vocabulary but I'm not going to make a big deal of it unless it's clear you don't have any other vocabulary (i.e. every other word). Also follow site rules. Grammar/syntax and whatnot: I'm into writing for the fun and joy of it. I am not a grammar Nazi. That said, I will do my best to give you proper sentences, correct spellings, and overall comprehensive posts. We are adults so I do expect some level of clarity (i.e. no text speech or one liners) but I won't jump on you if you have misspelled words, "improper" sentences, etc. I will certainty have them at times and so can fully understand if others do as well. :) (Though - I'm also looking to improve so if you are grammar nazi and can work with my imperfect writing feel free to apply :) ) [/hider] [hider=About Me] I'm 26, male. I work 40+ hours a week and therefore can be fairly busy. I will not always be posting everyday - sometimes taking 3-7 days to reply (depends on the week, brain energy, and where we are at in the story). My posts are usually mid to high casual. Sometimes longer but not below 2 paragraphs. I love mysteries and hidden pasts so expect a lot of various reveals throughout the rp - which even with a back story here I might add more. I also like sad and depressing things so expect some (hopefully) tear-jerking moments as well. I prefer 18+ as I'm an adult and some adult themes might be references. Better safe than sorry eh? I will not write smut. If we get to the point where two characters reach that point, we fade to black. OOC - I don't mind it. I like to brainstorm and chat but it doesn't have to be a lot if you don't want. I'm a big world creator and love planning things out but I also don't mind (and appreciate) input. I do like to have things I reveal in the RP but collaboration would be fun. :) [/hider] Still interested? Great! So - I'm really looking for one individual (again 18+, preferably female) so I might be a bit picky. Therefore, this might not be first come - first serve. We'll probably chat briefly and make sure we both have the correct understanding before making the decision to move forward (or not). Please don't feel bad if it doesn't work out. You are still a wonderful person :) Writing samples are always fun (and I can submit one if you'd like) but it's up to you. Though note - I might go check out your writing on current RPs. It's not that I'm stalking - think of it more openly spying :) [hider=Subplot Ideas] This will be in a "Serenity/Firefly" universe with space. In fact, the concept of a freighter and crew will be a parallel story probably running alongside (not neccessary Cannon characters though. We can discuss though) This can go a couple ways: - Your character is captain of a ship (we can discuss crew and who's who). You learn that your newest crew member is hiding a lot when you find yourself running from Alliance. - Your character is tasked with hunting down the weapon. As the journey progresses you either (a) question your loyalty to the cause OR (b) do everything you can to bring the weapon in. We might split the crew and I'll be playing the handlers. - You are one of two weapons created - the first. You are the character who flees. My weapon is tasked to bring you in. You try to convince my character to flee as well. This too will be same Serenity/Firefly setting and we'll probably split the crew. (I'll be captain in this instance). There's a lot of potential so feel free shoot other ideas if you come up with something. Though I am keen on it being set in the Firefly/Serinity universe - though probably not with Mal and the gang. But Alliance, the men with blue hands, etc. :) [/hider] I'm looking for someone who enjoys writing, has some great ideas, and is fun. If you're interested send me a PM and we'll see what comes of it
