Except for one difference in the month of January. "The Incident" otherwise known as "The Event" occured, a massive global disaster that struck the world at the beginning of the year. A disaster so unprecedented it united the entire global populace against one common tragedy. 200 million residents of planet earth were instantly disintegrated in a manner reminiscent of Thano's somber snap at the end Avengers Infinity War. Without any form of warning or reason millions of people were disintegrated around the globe. Several explanations were given to explain the horrific nightmare that engulfed the world at large. Numerous theories had been thrown around in a vain effort to make sense of this calamity. Some of which included the christian end times rapture, alien invasions, advanced biochemical terrorism, but in the end nothing was confirmed. The most horrid part of all of this that kept those who were left on earth was their was no definitive answer. With so many people wiped out of existence in but a moment there was even more lives lost as collateral damage from the unfortunate applications of this atrocity. Vehicles without drivers running off the road or crashing into ones still manned by the remnants. Planes without pilots plummeting to the ground, ships without captains left roaming in the depths of the ocean, larger vehicles such as trucks & bus's spiraling out of control without drivers to control them, homes engulfed in flames where residents had been cooking when they were evaporated. As if that wasn't enough, a global blackout lasting four days took place simultaneously at the same time of the mass human incineration. The following month another unprecedented occurrence followed one which would lead humanity even further down the rabbit hole. What sort of follow-up event could be as alarming & devious as the one that stripped so many lives from civilization? The Return of those very same people that had been whisked away in the blink of an eye forty days later. Many were embraced by relatives, friends & other loved ones they'd left behind, while some where met with a well earned suspicion. To some that rematerialized a mere speculation that they were not who they claimed to be was the least of their worries. The saddest of them all must have been those who returned to find their lives in shambles. The very people they cared for most in the world slain as collateral damage in "The Incident" itself or who took their own lives as result of being unable to cope with the morbid reality of those they cherished being vaporized. The Vanished have no memories of their absence whatsoever unable to recall anything except their final moments before being wiped off the face of the earth. Within the next four months the world quickly comes to find out those who've returned have came with mysterious gifts. Abilities that could only be described as superhuman powers the likes of X Men mutants or DC's own league of heroes. Set five months after the initial incident,four months after the Return. The world is reeling fracutred over the populace that vanished without a trace, and returned 40 days later with superhuman abilities. Many of the Fractured as they were called have tried to integrate back into their real lives, many have not manifested powers as of yet, and many think they wont. Regardless as you can imagine while not nearly as serious as the chaotic incineration of millions, the manifestion of superhuman powers has caused destruction and even the loss of some lives. The world is racing to figure out what to do, how to handle their superhuman populace, the validity of these powers, how powerful are they, what people have them, do any who were not incinerated have them, who allwas incinerated, who was behind the event, what does it mean for the world and the future of humanity? Find out in the world known as Fractured that we build together, a real life copy with small difference's such as politicians, major events, and how everything pulls together. [b]Premise[/b] People can play as regular humans and/or those dubbed as "Empowered. Some who returned manifested their powers right away, some are just now discovering them, and their are others whose powers remain dormant. The storyline revolves around how those with superhuman powers affect the real world, as well as the aftermath of "The Incidents". The Government coalition responsible for the incident have formed a secretive multi-national paramilitary agency known as [b]Legion[/b] to capture & kill those empowered. Also people with superhuman abilities have become public knowledge in the past month of the RP. [b]Rules:[/b] 1. Fairness, want everyone to be fair and remember this is a story powers can grow over the story. But I'd prefer you remember that powers are GROWING, so do not start off with any sort of mastery of your ability. 2. You can have as many characters as you can keep up with. 3. Stay as active as your life allows you to, and if you foresee an extended duration of unavailability try to free up any plots/characters you have interactions with. 4. Minimum post length at least one to two paragraphs 5. Set in the "Real" world so keep that in mind, this not Marvel or DC comics. So the current year is 2019, everything that happened in the Real World/Reality happened up until January 2019 where the storyline begins/takes place. 6. Powers are first come first serve, a power can be reserved if you PM me, and let me know. :) I'll keep a record of reserved powers, as a result of this it's advisable to ask and see if a power is available. Duplicate powers are allowed IF THE ORIGINAL person who picked the power doesn't mind, but try to have a creative difference for how you use the power. 7. Due to the nature of how they got their powers, no characters under 14 have powers. 8. Reality Ensues, to make this a unique & fun experience in this RP reality takes precedent over emotional attachment to characters. Meaning for exmaple if your character is waltzing around Manhattan and Manhattan is hit by a Nuclear Missile, your character is deceased. Unless of course your character has means to teleport out of the way or such etc. There will be situations in the RP that may cost your characters their lives, but alas you can have multiple characters. 9. Most importantly, have fun.
