Children are the future of our world. We teach them to be what we imagine would be good for them and our world. We do our best as parents and hope it's gonna be enough. Being a parent has never been easy. And it certainly isn't getting easier with time.

But when your child is capable of a supernatural power - what does that mean for you?


SYCEP is here to help you. The Institute with the Special Youth and Child Education Program will allow your child to grow up in a safe environment with other children that hold similar abilities like them.

SYCEP - a safe future for your special gifted child!



The program offers

~ education ~
~ a comfortable home ~
~ full and free health care ~
~ parenting exchange and support groups ~
~ diversified free time activities ~
(playground, swimming, different sports, exciting trips, different games, and more)
~ personalized training for your child's ability ~
~ and much more ~




A letter in your hand - your child on your mind - are you confused? Scared? Curious? If you knew it before or not - now you do. Your child is gifted with a special ability. Has it shown yet? Has it scared you yet?

SYCEP doesn't give you the chance to decide yourself. The letter, signed by the president personally!, insists you go to an 'informational meeting' to listen to all the things SYCEP has to say. You didn't know what SYCEP was before that letter and maybe you don't know it reading the letter either. It's all very confusing.

However, welcome. This is the story of a group of completely normal parents in a fight against something they wouldn't ever had thought of.




The world and my plans


The world is our very own 2017 world as we know and love (or hate?) it. At least on the outside it is. SYCEP may or may not has some technical abilities that the outside doesn't know of - government and all, they always hide stuff, right?

SYCEP is an institute that isn't known by anyone not involved with it. You won't find commercials on the TV or on bus stops. You won't have heard of it by a distant family member. If you try to search for it online, you will be disappointed. It doesn't exist in the world wide web. You won't have a clue what SYCEP even means. Until you meet it.

In this world, five years ago all of a sudden, seemingly without a reason, a couple children born each year will contain an ability within them that isn't considered 'normal'. Maybe they can fly? Maybe they can cause fires? Or their scream makes windows burst? These children are all being detected now and recruited to SYCEP. Where they are supposed to learn and grow up, live with their parents and safe the world one day. Though the last part is definitely not mentioned by anyone of the SYCEP or the government. But the government sure shows interest in children with superpowers - how could they not? Where that leads... we will see.

My plans for this roleplay aren't all too fleshed out, because I wanna adapt to what all of us write up and come up with. But I have a couple of scenarios that will take place if I see fit. I will be leading the story a little bit, if it won't lead itself (and I don't expect it to honestly, but it'd be great if it did!).



Character Sheet

(The CS template might change a bit still, forgive me if it does)

Note: You don't have to create a child if you plan on:
1) creating it together with the other parent (once you find one)
2) you plan on finding a partner who will create the child (
In those cases just leave it blank until you have decided on a partner and your shared child
3) you are allowed to PARTLY fill out the CHILD CS if you want to discuss some things with the other parent first

Please note that you can only have one child with special abilities if it isn't twins or triplets. So if you have created a child and someone else, who you want to partner up with, as well, you two need to work out how you can make one child that suits the both of you.

Siblings are allowed - no older than 12 though.

All kinds of relationship that you can think of are allowed. (Three people married, open relationship, divorced, engaged, widowed, single, exes sharing a child but you have a new relationship already, ect.)


If you want your character to have a wife/husband, divorced ex, significant other, whatever please write it in fat words above the hider of your CS.

There will be no ghosting of significant others, the other parent or both (cause they can be different persons obviously). So it is highly encouraged and very much so wanted that you guys get together as a couple or exes to battle this fight. The only acceptable excuses for one of the two parents not being in the facility are: they're dead (tell us why), they've lost the custody (in that case the SYCEP wouldn't have contacted them for this matter; tell us why they lost custody). I encourage you to please get together and create creative, maybe unusual, but realistic families!

I'll try to rig up a sheet. I like this unique spin on the overdone genre of superkids+facility.

Threw my own parent/child pair into the mix. c:
(Sorry for the use of art instead of physical pictures, by the by- it's just been near impossible for me to find faceclaims otherwise, haha. I'd be more than willing to try and look again if asked, however.)

Hey all, taking longer than I'd hoped for on this due to some troubles going on with my prospective partner for this RP. I'm going to wait it out for as long as I can without missing the flight, but if things don't get sorted out before then, I'll have to press on alone.

Hi everyone. Thank you for your interest and dedication so far. My life is a little hectic right now. I am hoping that things slow down a tad bit ao I can really give my attention back to this rp and be the GM you deserve.

I dont think I'll have much time on Sunday (For sure dont have on Saturday) but maybe hopefully next week everything will be calmer so my mind can focus on this again.

I am planning on making a lesbian character and would love to find a wife for her. If anyone wants to consider it.

Allonsy!!

I got a little busy too, so I haven't finished up my CS yet, but would be willing to work on a female character that might work for your character's wife. I should be getting free time real soon as well, but let me know if you have any specific interests in a character and I can make one to suit it :)

I'm jumpin' on board, if that's alright!





@KahleenCuthald Just wondering if it's okay for potential sibling relationships between parents. Wendy's supposed to be Suzanna's brother, but I understand if that's not a-okay!

@mskennedy615 Love it. Accepted :)

@EchoicChamber I am okay with the drawing of the mother but the child looks too 'unreal' for me. I am honestly not very fond of anime. A child with two doesn't usually have hair that full or long hair and definitely not red-ish eyes. I would like a picture where I can imagine that a real life person would actually look like that. So if you can find a drawing or whatever that looks like it could be from real life, I'm all down. Apart from that, it sounds good. Make sure that the child doesn't have full control of her powers though or can just burst a tree out of her pocket at any time. Sure it takes energy and training and we wanna portrait that too. :)

@McHaggis Accepted! Now that was a nice read.

@Roosan As well accepted. He seems super interesting.

@SaikaAnge Heyoooo! I have heard you and I have smiled! Let's talk this out in PM and see if we have similar ideas of our characters and their marriage?

@HalfOfLancelot Accepted and of course siblings are okay as well! Relations of any sort are welcome, if realistic and this sounds realistic to me. Does it to you?

How fun would if be if some ex-lovers ran into each other and their new families and had to get along now and live under one roof? I am up for most kind of relations, if anyone feels extra creative, as long as it's realistic and not the whole family (aunts, cousins, grandparents, ect) in the SYCEP suddenly.

Man, everyone is slaying their CS and I am sitting here and barely know what to do with myself. Busy days (or weeks?) always kind of put a real dull on my creativity for my own characters. So hopefully I can whip up something myself soon (oh please let it be soon) that will get even remotely close to what these amazing writers have done already. I feel like I am so out of everyone's league and should stick to storytelling and not write in here myself. Oh boy. I think here I should add that my writing might be a little less good because most of my English is self-taught and I am not able to whip up words and sentences and phrases the way I could if I learnt some more English...

I fucking hope I didn't forget anyone who had questions or submitted a CS. If I forgot you, I am sorry, please slap me across the face and tell me to get my shit together ;)

Love that people actually seemed interested in this idea... WOW!

@KahleenCuthald Aight, that sounds fair enough. c: I'll try to find a better picture for the child, cause I don't want to break the style of the roleplay badly or anything. As for her powers, I was thinking that it was more or less kind of random as to how much control she has over it. So she might accidentally grow a bunch of random plants at a really inconvenient time, or she might try to make something grow during training and only make a leaf twitch or something. Does that sound alright? If not, I have no problem whatsoever in editing it if you'd like.

EDIT: Would this picture be alright to use for the child?

@EchoicChamber That sounds good! And the picture is totally fine with me. Thank you for considering to edit things for this RP and to my liking. I always feel so bad when I say no to anything on here cause I don't wanna stop creativity and dull someone's excitement or anything.

@KahleenCuthald Don't worry about it! It's your brainchild, and I would hate to do anything that would put a damper on this experience for anyone. :) I'll go ahead and resize the pic real quick, and then swap the old one out ASAP.

EDIT: Image fixed!
