Five(/six) teenage delinquents are caught outside during a supernatural thunder storm and acquire special abilities in the process. They aren't the only ones who were changed by the storm, and must face many challenges that it has brought to south east London - all the while serving community service together. Their powers, and the events that they experience together, separate them from their family and friends, and the only people that they can possibly trust are eachother.
In the real world, there are no 'superheroes' - but there are uniforms. If orange jumpsuits can be considered uniforms.




You don't need to have watched the TV show, it's a pretty simple idea, the synopsis above kind of covers the whole concept. I'm basing this more on the first couple seasons of the show as I feel they are best to fit a roleplay around. I'm wanting around five (as that was the number of original cast) people to play the main characters. I'm looking for interesting and unique characters, hopefully all bringing something different to the group. They all need to be flawed, of course, or else they wouldn't be doing community service, and it also adds a lot more to the RP if characters are flawed. I'm wanting balance so I'll put a minimum of at least 2 of each gender, and ask that we communicate with eachother so we don't get similar characters. Since this will be a fairly small group (6 at a stretch, probably, most likely 5,) I am very open to other's opinions and would like everyone to have an influence on it. Although it's based on the show, we are mainly taking the general concept of Misfits, the plot itself will be our own.

Hello~!

I'd definitely be interested in this and not because I've seen a few of the episodes. ^_^

Haha. The series is good, in my opinion but others might find it not so good.

But I've been dying to do a roleplay based around the series. :)

Guys, might be a good idea to figure out the gender of your character and post it here, just for balance's sake. App coming soon, OOC to follow that.

My character will be male.

Awesome. Also, just a note, I'd prefer powers that don't affect the plot too much. Stick to things like invisibility, fire manipulation, flying, etc. Stay away from things like time travel and all that. (We may do time travel stuff later in the RP because it's pretty awesome but right now I'd prefer to keep it simple.)

Here's the app. Copy and paste it and replace anything in italics with your own information. Also replace the Character Name and IMAGE URL bit. Would prefer photographs for the picture, because if we're mixing picture and stuff like anime that would just be confusing.

[center][img]IMAGE.URL.HERE[/img]
[h1]Character Name. Nickname included.[/h1][/center]
[hider=Character name]

[U]Appearance[/U]

[indent][I]Include a description of your character here in addition to the image above. Include things such as height, body frame, facial features, hair colour, eye colour and dress sense.[/I][/indent]



[U]Full Name[/U]

[indent][I]First name, middle name, last name.[/I][/indent]

[U]Age[/U]

[indent][I]Probably 18-22ish[/I][/indent]

[U]Sex[/U]

[indent][I]Male or female[/I][/indent]

[U]Sexuality[/U]

[indent][I]Character sexuality[/I][/indent]

[U]Birthplace[/U]

[indent][i]Preferably in United Kingdom[/i][/indent]



[U]Characteristics[/U]

[indent][i]Summary of their personality, what they act like, etc.[/i][/indent]

[U]Goals and aspirations[/U]

[indent][i]Life goals, hopes for the future.[/i][/indent]



[U]CV[/U]

[indent][i]What jobs have they had, if any? What kind of an education. Just a short summary.[/i][/indent]

[U]Crime[/U]

[indent][i]What got them in to community service. Make it a realistic one - you wouldn't get community service for mass murder.[/i][/indent]

[U]Background[/U]

[indent][i]What occurred in their life up until their community service. Go as in depth as you like. This is most likely the longest part of the app.[/i][/indent]



[U]Power[/U]

[indent][i]What extra ability did they get when the storm hit?[/i][/indent]

[U]Skills & Abilities[/U]

[indent][i]What were they good at before the storm? i.e. lockpicking, fighting, persuasion, etc.[/i][/indent]

I'll be taking part with a female character then, I have an occupied Sunday - as usual- so I'll be taking the application with me and be able to submit it tomorrow at the latest.

Hey, color me interested. I'll work on a sheet in a bit.

As someone who hasn't seen Misfits, I just wanted to be sure-our powers will be more aligned towards the weaker end of the spectrum as opposed to, say, Superman-level characters, right?

Well, the characters have only one power, generally, unlike Superman, who has multiple. (superstrength, flight, etc.) But there are some pretty OP powers in Misfits, like invincibility, so there is quite a range. Obviously, I'd like it if you chose a power that isn't too OP.

I'll be taking on a female role, as well. If that's okay.

I should have my character sheet up soon, by Thursday hopefully.

EDIT: Nevermind. Male it is.
