Bio
WIP I'm coming back after forever so clearing all of this seems like a good choice.
Just few basic things.
1. Left for my own sort of health reasons. 2. I ran a game for almost a decade when I stepped away from everything. 3. Currently working on getting an interest check up for the game I am going to hopefully be able to run.

History
Biography:
Jace was born and raised in Galway Ireland, for the most part anyway. His parents had a farm there, and he liked working in the fields, it helped him if he wanted to join any sports. When he was 3, his little sister Janelle was born, and when he first saw her, he swore to his parents that he would always be there for her, no matter what. It wasn't until a year later that the doctor's discovered something, that Janelle was blind. After that, he became even more protective, keeping close to her, and being wary of anyone else.
He always was coming in and out of the house with friends, and they knew to be nice to his sister. Jace at one point had a friend name Sean, but he didn't stick around for very long. He had made the mistake of teasing Janelle for being blind, and an argument ensued, which resulted in the end of their friendship. He played football (or soccer in the states) and was an amazing athlete in school, and worked hard. He picked up fencing, learning how to use swords of all types. It was by far his favorite past time, but he would never give up his football career. His life was great, until he was 16 years old. This was when everything changed.
He and his sister Janelle were at school when the fired happened. His parents had been home, and no one really knew what had happened, but the barn and their house were on fire. The entire thing burned to the ground, and his parents bodies were pulled from the remains. Jace and his sister were put into the care of some of their neighbors, while the authorities tried to get a hold of relatives. The only one who would take them was their uncle who lived in Seattle Washington. They ended up packing up their bags, and moved in with him on the other side of the world.
Jace continued schooling, until he graduated and started going for a degree in Computer Science. He managed to get an internship at Microsoft, and works there when not in school. He had to take a break for several weeks when he got sick. His uncle thought it was just because his body wasn't used to the Seattle area, so he didn't really think much of it. Though deep down, Jace knew that probably wasn't true. That something was seriously wrong.
Discovery Of Your Power:
At first, Jace thought he could create and manipulate ice, like his sister. She had told him about her abilities, and after a little while, he accidentally created ice, and it shattered on the ground in front of him. This made him believe that somehow they ended up with the same ability, but that changed, when he was walking around Seattle one day. He passed by a man wearing long pants, a leather jacket, and boots. He didn't pay much attention to him, but Jace wasn't exactly doing very much, but he was trying to stay calm. School was stressful, and he was freaking out. He took a shortcut down an alleyway, and his mind kept racing, and soon, a trashcan went flying in front of him. He stopped, and stared at it for a moment, before lifting his hand, to see if he had caused it, only to find the can moved with his hand. That, was when he truly learned what his power was, and that he was different from Janelle after all.
Ability & Powers: Power Replication
Ability & Powers Weaknesses: He may only replicate one ability at a time, and whatever power he has will have the weaknesses and limitations of whatever ability he has.
Additional Information
Theme Song:I Won't Let Go-Rascal Flats Extra Information: Super speed Wolves of Red Lake I agree to follow the rules for this RP and understand that if I do not follow the rules, the GM or Co-GM may kick me out of this roleplay.
@Blu With light manipulation, your character would be able to shoot beams of light, or create little balls of light in their hands if you don't have any other light source, things like that.
Location: Circus Interacting With: People in circus tent
"Ooh, the hotel, where everyone might just prolong their inevitable death! That is probably your best option, but the question is, how to get there quickly without dying. There is always the option of going back into the tent and dealing with Wolfy over there, but that would probably result in instantaneous death, and I'm guessing you want to live".
"Just shut up already, I don't need you narrating everything that is going on. Go away and leave me alone," she whispered in his direction. The hotel though, she wasn't sure where that was, since she had never found a need to go there. It made sense to her for them to head over and go there, since it was any place but where they were presently.
Katsumi, well, she was tempted to head back into the tent, but she knew that she was probably out of her league with the wolf. She noticed the silver haired girl talking to herself again. To her, the woman definitely had a screw loose or something, but now was not the time for this to be debated about. At the suggestion of the hotel as a place to hide out, she looked at the group and nodded her head.
"Alright then, let's head over there. I'm guessing since you suggested it, you know the way," Kat said to them. "Kono tsuitachi wa kurutte imasuga, ima wa nani mo dekimasen," she mumbled under her breath, waiting for someone to lead the way to the hotel.
@Almalthia The year is still off. She would be born in the year 2313, remember, they haven't aged a day, and as far as they know, they are still those ages and the group went into stasis in 2335. So as far as she knows, she is still 21 years old, even though based on when she was born, she'd be 31. Does that make some sense? (let me know if it doesn't, I knew the whole age thing might get confusing)
Oops, I just forgot to fix something. I translated the sheet over from X-Men and I missed it. The year is 2345, and your characters have been in stasis for 10 years, I shall fix that on the sheet, but that needs to be fix. Sorry about that, and thanks for helping me realize that.
Location: Police Station Interacting With: Sheriff Bradley
Lydia nodded at his request, pulling out the envelope. The letter that had caused so many problems, and the one that resulted in James' death. If she hadn't gotten the letter from the cat, she wouldn't have met James, and she never would have been curious about the letter. She didn't like the idea of going back to that house, but it made her feel better to have someone else with her who might have seen something similar to it. Though she highly doubted it, it did make her feel better.
She got into the backseat of the police car, though she didn't like the prospect of basically being locked in the back, but she went along with it. Before the door shut, she handed Sheriff Bradley the envelope. It felt good to get that out of the way, since the thing was nothing but trouble. Lydia waited for the car to start, before she spoke. "That way," she said as she pointed in the direction she had come from, back towards the house.
I'm sorry, but you've been removed from the RP since your counter rolled over to day 8. To keep the role-play moving smoothly, people need to be posting within the time limit. You are welcome to reapply here in the future when you have more time, but I have warned people that I am getting to be a little more strict on this. Best of luck to you, and I hope to RP with you in the future.
Location: Earth Time Frame: 2345 RP Tags: Science Fiction, Dystopia, Casual, Realistic Type: Dystopian Survival Goal: Try to find out the truth about yourselves, and try to survive. Age: Minimum character age is 16, max is 25, trying to keep the characters relatively young.
Premise
The world was completely destroyed by war. The reason: over whether or not to destroy any supernatural beings, or anyone who wasn't truly human. It has been fought for generations, but 10 years ago, it finally came to an end, when the last one was killed. Now, things are not so simple, the world has to work hard to rebuild itself, and there are some problems with this. The peace is fragile, and one slip up could result in the war starting all over again.
15 years ago, just five years before the war ended, a group of scientists by the name of the Dark Anarchy started working on a way to create more supernaturals. Though, they worked secretly, for the world did not want more of them, though some countries would have welcomed them. If anyone outside of the exclusive group knew, it could mean the end of everything that they had worked so hard to create.
They knew that they were not going to be able to get volunteers, instead, they made people disappear. Their research showed that young adults were the best prospects for the experiments, and so they brought in people as young as sixteen in order to test their serums on. Over the years, over a hundred people were taken to their underground lab, until they were down to just thirteen people, the others all died due to the failed experiments. Unfortunately, they were found out by one of the many controlling powers of the world, and their lab was destroyed.
What happened to the thirteen people though? Each one had been placed in a stasis chamber, to ensure that they were hidden and safe, and to ensure that they had no memories of the experiments that they were subjected to. They were only meant to be locked in there for seven months, but ended up being there for more than a decade, until a military squadron were instructed to find them, and to eliminate them. Their memories though, the program that had been initiated had be meant to be stopped when they were due to be brought out again, but it hadn't. Now, they are woken up but they do not have any memories of who they are, or where they came from.
And they have to try and work together to survive, and find out who they are.
Lore
Humans
Previously, any and all powers and abilities were simply referred to as deviances. If someone was perhaps a little odd, in that they could see things that others could not, perhaps that they could heal with a single touch, or that they were immune to flames, they were said to have a deviance. Years after the Altsoba Massacre, this definition was revoked and revised, as we realized that it is simply more complicated than that.
Deviances, as they are now understood, refer to (often) extraordinary abilities that distinguish someone from the average human. However, these are not differences on a biological or genetic level. While these can be small things, such as a sixth sense when it comes to healing and knowing what is wrong with the patient, it can be as dramatic as pyrokinesis. Deviances are a result of the shattering of the Cursed Flask in 1719, the shards which were recovered in 2018 by MI13. The flask's contents were said to grant immeasurable power, and with the contents mixing into the air in trace amounts, individuals can sometimes acquire slight abilities from exposure. There is currently no method of explaining why some people gain a deviance and others do not, however. This area of research is still relatively new.
Mutants, also called homo superior, are powered individuals who gain their abilities due to an X-gene. This gene is something that is simply part of their genetic makeup from birth. It can be activated when the individual is subjected to great stress, often during puberty or traumatic moments. It's important to understand that while a mutant's powers can be called a mutation, they were born mutants. They did not mutate throughout the course of their lifetime.
Mutates are those who, as the name implied, mutated to gain powers. This is often due to the presence of electromagnetic radiation outside of the visible spectrum. Encounters with radioactive waste would certainly qualify. It is possible for those with an X-gene to mutate when exposed to radiation or other materials, but it is uncommon and also effectively 'neutralizes' the X-gene.
Inhumans, also called inhomo supremis, are individuals who are descended by unfortunate souls who were experimented on and had their genetic code modified. This unorthodoxy in genetics can be activated through a process called terringenesis, in which the inhuman emerges from something akin to a cocoon with newfound abilities and powers.
The Aulid, are a small group of people who were experimented on by a group known as Dark Anarchy. They were kidnapped and turned into people with abilities similar to that of mutants. Each one can be identified with a tattoo of a number on the under side of their left arm, as well as the branded mark of the Dark Anarchy on their right shoulder.

The world is controlled by the GM - All NPC's, weather, what you see, what you find, what happens, everything. So if it isn't in my post, it didn't happens
If you wish your character to have "connections" please run it by the GM first to ensure it is acceptable and isn't already being done by another.
Randomization and LLA are used in this RP - Please refer to Lady Amalthea's tutorial for a description if you are new to this concept
Posting Habits

Must IC post once every 7 days (It is your job to keep up with when you need to post. Your last post hits Day 8 and I remove you from the RP.)
I do not accept no inspiration as a reason not to post
Keep up with all IC and OOC posts
Under Extras, state your favorite science fiction show or movie.
No word in IC or OOC after 7 days is grounds for removal from the RP.

Spots are not first come first serve
Gm will review completed CS first
Gm will review previous Rp's and posting habits
Gm will then notify you if you are approved
Character deaths will happen, no one is safe - it will be randomized and you will be notified when your death approaches. (This does not mean you are out of the RP, it will mean however you need to make a new character should you wish to continue - I recommend having Back Up Characters Ready)
I am looking for long term highly dedicated Rpers.

Special - To New Comers To The Guild - Pm The Gm for a tid bit to add under extras instead
Roles
Each character is going to be given a number. This is the number that is tattooed on their right arm and what your character will be known as since they don't remember their name. Each character will have a "specialty", and this goes with the characters number, to make things a little easier so people aren't all picking the same number. Some specialties are a little more vague, while others are very specific. This can help guide you into different skill sets for your character. If you need help with skills, let me know. Here is a list of the specialties and the numbers to go along with them.
Ranged Weapons Specialist - 2 (Nallore)
Brawling/Hand to Hand Combat Specialist - 11
Bladed Weapon Specialist - 13
Tech Monkey - 7 (BlueSky44)
Psychology - 6 (FantasyChic)
Physics - 8
Medical - 10 (melissahart)
Demolitions - 12
Neuroscience - 4 (Almalthia)
Mechanic - 9 (Morose)
Survivalist - 3
Leader - 1 (Blu)
Rogue/Thief - 5 (Roscoe)
Each character, because of the experiments, will also have an ability of sorts, a super power. It has to be on this list, because only certain abilities would be available for the experiments. There are more abilities than there are people, so please try to avoid multiple people having the same powers, since no two experiments were alike.
Telekinesis (Morose)
Gravity Manipulation
Create copies of self
Teleportation (Roscoe)
Walk through walls (Nallore)
Shapeshifting
Light Manipulation (Blu)
Learning the history of an object by touching it

[sub][color=ed1c24]*By submitting this CS in its completion I am stating I have read all the rules for this Rp and am agreeing to follow them to the fullest with respect and courtesy. I acknowledge that I can and will be removed from the RP without warning if I break a rule or cause problems with my fellow Rpers or the GM.[/color][/sub][/hider]
You might have noticed if that there is on section of the character sheet that is missing. The History section, the part where you create your characters backstory. Well, your characters have no memories of their pasts, so neither do you. You are allowed to PM me suggestions for your characters backstory, but the rest is completely unknown to you. Your characters won't even know their name at first, only a number which is how your character will be referred to. Eventually there will be a point in which your character finds out their name, and you can choose to use that or continue with the number.
WIP I'm coming back after forever so clearing all of this seems like a good choice.
Just few basic things.
1. Left for my own sort of health reasons.
2. I ran a game for almost a decade when I stepped away from everything.
3. Currently working on getting an interest check up for the game I am going to hopefully be able to run.
All set, that's all for now.
