Eighteen years ago, there was a never before seen meteorological event; a widespread show of lights was seen over the coastal city of Greenbriar. A cause for the event was never discovered, but for two years after, the effects were difficult not to correlate.

Over ninety percent of pregnancies in Greenbriar in the following two years ended in miscarriage, still birth, or sickly children who lived short lives.

You are one of the few exceptions, those few babies who survived and were dubbed "The Greenbriar Miracles." You graduate today from Greenbriar High’s smallest graduating class since the city was founded.

And that night, as you all celebrate your next step into adulthood, the lights come back into the sky. Over the next few days, you will begin to discover the powers you have been endowed with.

This will be a super power RP, with the fun little twist that you do not get to decide your own power. It will be given to you by myself or a GM.

A quick note about posting standard: there is none for size, but I would like to see basic spelling and grammar adhered to. If it's a weak spot for you, don't sweat it too much as long as you're willing to hear me out when I correct you on it(which I will do gently, and privately). If you are offended or annoyed about being corrected, this is not the RP for you.

Also please do not apply if you are not willing to play with whatever power is assigned to you.

Greenbriar, Oregon is a coastal town, but by no means is it a bustling port city. The city’s western edge sits right on a stony cliff that overlooks a stark, rocky beach. At high tide the water crashes all the way against the cliff wall, smashing everything and washing away the debris.

The town is middling in size, and is sometimes seen as a quirky “downtown” to nearby Riverview, which brings in a lot of business from out of town shoppers. Most businesses are small and local, and many residents commute to Riverview, or further. Many townsfolk take pride in the fact that there is no Walmart in the city limits, and the local Starbucks doesn't do as well as Cliffside Cafe.

Locales:

The Beach: High tide comes right up to the cliff face, so no permanent buildings are made on the beach itself, but there is a switchback staircase carved into the rock of the cliff itself.

Beach Street: A street that runs parallel the the cliff. It is the home of many a vintage clothing store, antique shop, and pleasant family owned restaurant. It also features many of the towns oldest buildings, including the courthouse, sheriff's department and mayor’s office

Cliffside Cafe: A pleasant coffee shop on Beach Street, owned by a local family. It sits right on the cliff, and has both inside and outside seating that have a direct view over the beach and the sea beyond.

Greenbriar High School: Only six years old, before it was built, students had to catch a bus into Riverview from ninth grade onward. It's a handsome building, with up to date teaching and learning tools, but it only accommodates a thousand students.

Riverview Towne Centre: The closest mall, a twenty minute drive at the worst. If you want name brand clothes, it's the only place to go. Many local hipsters scoff at going to the mall, but a wardrobe from only the local small businesses would cost a fortune.
Ugh, I do hate rebooting, but it's true that we lost a great many characters.

So, if there's a reboot, don't nobody go saying how powers are decided. I'd rather it remain a surprise to anyone who hasn't already found out.

Just a light nudge to those most involved.

"Is it?" Audrey asked, wishing she could compare the shapes of their cuts, but sadly there was only one cut now. Or had there only ever been one? "That's not possible," she murmured to herself, trailing off. Then she turned to Zoey behind the counter.

"Wait, who else did you play nurse for? Was it her?" she pointed toward the door and searched for a name, "Maren? Wait."

She bent down and quickly undid the laces on her boots, then ripped off first boot then blood-soaked sock and put her heel up on the counter. "Was it her foot, did it look like this?"
I am unsure what to do about Miles. I don't like playing other characters, but he could be useful and he's currently tied up with Maren right now.
@Famotill

I actually did still have this subscribed.

If you try the universe again, shoot me a message.
@Kyrisse So now she can notice her hand is healed, and Audrey is bringing her attention to the fact that her hand is now sporting an unexplained wound. Time to put two and two together, at least for her power.
@Mr Allen J@R31GN@Kyrisse@SouffleGirl123

"Thanks," Audrey cut in, as Zoey was about to give the bandage to the wrong person. "Uh, some gauze and maybe an alcohol pad?" When Zoey turned them over Audrey started cleaning her hand, and then bandaged one of the cuts. She needed another and when she asked for it, Zoey turned it over easily enough.

She was looking around, not, trying to see what she might have cut herself on, but she hadn't even been touching anything. There was no blood on anything other than herself and the used gauze. She lifted and dropped her hand in a gesture of surrender. "I don't know what even cut me." She looked at Kassidy, who had touched her just before it happened, "You didn't, like, cut me just now, did you?" She spoke more meekly than usual, but she was completely at a loss here.

I'm posting tomorrow for sure....unless I'm forced to urgent care


Is that likely? Are you okay?
@AbandonedIntel I would love to make that connection, but I don't want to change too much of he background you've built up, and the shop Audrey works at/grew up in was not kind to her specifically because she is female. I don't want to force your character to have that same background.

But, it might me interesting if Aud and Gab have a sort of sisterly resentment thing going on, where Audrey resents her for how easy she has it at the shop.

We could discuss it in PM if you like, try to hammer something out.
