You have my interest. Legit this time.
Best part is, you can technically recycle your character if you still wish to use her.

Memento Mori
| GM: Lord Wraith | Co-GM: BlackSam3091 | Genre: Superhuman, Modern Fantasy | Type: Linear, Sandbox |
| PREMISE: |
While unofficially Hyperhumans, individuals with extraordinary gifts unique to them, have been part of the world since the early 1900's, in the year 2014 they received an unofficial outing at the hands of terrorist Yakob Kowalski. Kowalski having lost his family to a young Hypes' developing abilities, had maintained a grudge over the years culminating with a plan to expose Hyperhumans as dangerous individuals. However he was stopped by S.H.I.F.T., the Specialized Hyperhuman Intervention Federal Taskforce.
In light of these events, humanity realized they weren't alone. Originally Canadian based, S.H.I.F.T. was part of the Hyperhuman Equality, Logistics and Protection department. In the aftermath of Kowalski's attempts to paint all Hyperhumans as destructive monsters, H.E.L.P. was elevated to an international organization and joined with the United Nations. Now able to work on a global level, H.E.L.P. has discovered they are not the only the only ones interested in Hyperhumans. While there are some who wish to use Hypes to their achieve their own goals or protect their own interests, there are others who wish to see this entire race exterminated.

| PLOT: |
PRIMARY PLOT:
A strange illness has begun to befall the city of Toronto. So far the cases are isolated but doctors fear that it will prove to be extremely contagious. All reported cases have only thus far affected Hyperhumans. Symptoms include sneezing, headaches and eventually escalating to shakes, shivers, sweating and high fevers. Most importantly, this illness affects a Hyperhumans' ability to use and control their powers. Loss of control is common as is loss of their abilities altogether. So far there are no leads as to what is causing this illness nor how quickly it will spread. The only clue was an ominous warning from the notorious hacktivist group known as Uroborus.
| BACKGROUND INFORMATION: |
| HYPER HUMANS: |
Homo-Virium
"Hype"
Humanity has been constantly evolving and adapting to the world around them for centuries upon centuries. Even now, humanity is undergoing major changes as a new race makes itself known.
After millennia of Earth being routinely doused in what is known as coronal mass ejections, the side effects are starting to show. The coronal mass ejections or CMEs, are a massive burst of solar wind and magnetic fields being released into space and often directly at Earth. Carried within these events are high energy particles and it is these particles which have begun to cause humanity to change and develop new and sometimes unfathomable abilities.
The resulting effect of the high energy particles is an evolution that was first mistaken for a mutation and coined as the condition 'Viriumosis'. As research continued, it was realized that the mutation was not a temporary condition but the start of a new species as the 'Homo-Virium' was not the result of disease but rather was born with their abilities. The genetic difference became known as the 'Hype-Gene' or 'Hype-Factor' and was most common in families with a long spanning ancestry and history. The 'Hype-Gene' was a culminative result of high energy particles stored within the donating parent's chromosomes which resulted in the creation of the 'Hype-Gene' in their offspring. As such, a human born without a 'Hype-Gene' cannot develop Hyperhuman abilities no matter how many high energy particles they absorb throughout their life, however their offspring may be a Hyperhuman. The 'Hype-Gene' isn't exclusively carried within either sex but is a dominant gene within both ensuring that the child of a Hyperhuman will indeed be one themselves. Studies are inconclusive whether powers levels are greater or equal within children who have two Hyperhuman parents. Despite the fact that the 'Hype-Gene' takes a dominant role during the embryo's development, it remains practically undetectable until puberty as it lays in a dormant state until puberty. During puberty, the overwhelming release of hormones awakens the dormant 'Hype-Gene' which then begins to develop super-human abilities within the host.
There’s an estimated one Hyperhuman per every million humans on Earth. This is expected to double in the next ten years and continue on this path until eventually make up the majority of the Earth’s population within the next hundred years.

| F.A.Q.: |
Didn't want to score an immediate point but I figured I'd go bold or go home.
Thinking quickly Thorn shot forth his arm. Growing various evergreens from the arm, Thorn quickly detached the limb as the fireballs impacted with it, creating a wall of fire between Thorn and Madcap. Expanded his chest, Thorn produced numerous thorns which were then launched through the flaming wall towards the clown. Igniting as they passed through, a rain of burning barbs hailed down on Madcap, each laced with a natural parasitic toxin which would slow her down if not completely imbolize the clown should she be hit by enough of them.
Realizing that there wasn't much of a chance of him advancing down the field with Molotov laying down cover. Coming up with a solution Thorn dug his roots into the floor of the base, feeding them further and further into the cement floor creating numerous cracks that allowed him to slip through as he tunneled beneath the training room. Erupting from the floor behind the enemy flag, Thorn reached out to grab it before retreating back underground.

@The Kid Lantern And Hob desperately needs Rane to stop blowing holes in his ship but we can't always get what we want :P
Not sure if anyone has suggested this already, and while I know the Co-GM abilities are probably a way down the works, but would it ever be possible for the GM to be able to select which posts the Co-GM is actually able to Co-Edit as opposed to just the default first post? Say in the situation the GM makes an announcement later in the thread, or if there's a couple of reference posts at the beginning as can happen with RPs involving well developed worlds.
I figure the easiest way to do this (based on my limited knowledge of coding) would be some sort of toggle option for the thread creator to enable or disable the Co-GM's ability to edit their posts. Not sure how this would work in the Co-GM made a post however as this would obviously need to be a two way street so to speak.

Fenrir would hold a wee battery fan in front of his face, blowing the spores harmlessly away.
He's on the sidelines anyways haha
Everyone should attack Thorn en masse. Green Peace would have a fit.
Thorn single handedly wins by expelling mass amounts of spores which first relax their bodies and then lull them into a sleep. (Provided none of them turn into Reavers we're all good.)
@Hillan Come attack Thorn, I need something to react to lol
Man I have this idea for the ship to constantly be need of repair in the same way the Falcon and Serenity are in their respective franchises so Hob is always cursing at the ship and arguing with it (haven't decided if it will have an AI or not yet). Most of his down time will then be spent working on the Jumper (whose name I may or may not yet change haha)
