I'd think a professional would be a better place to voice your problems and vent for positive reactions, rather than the status bar of an RP forum. But that's just me.

[@neurovoid] That article looks incredibly biased for one agenda. There are various articles that list differences in neural wiring and anatomy. Not to mention hormones from gender-specific organs

Beyond Humanity: Chaos quarantine.

Progress, advancement, evolution. These are concepts that have driven humanity forward through the ages. And even now, in our modern era, progress hasn’t slowed down in the least. Progress brings us prosperity. But now humanity has been offered a gift. A chance for humanity to go beyond itself; to become something more than human. We thrive on advancement, but how willing are we to advance ourselves? And will this gift truly bring us advancement… or will it lead our society to ruin?

It all started on the first of March, 2016. The city of London was thrown into confusion as the entire city was put into lockdown. Any and all exits out of London were completely obstructed by the country’s military. Any contact with the outside world was made impossible. The millions inside of the quarantine were given no explanation why they were caged in the grand city. To others was told that a dangerous virus was the cause. But no, in the city there was no plague, no pestilence. But as the first day proceeded towards dusk, the true reason quickly unfolded. The first humans awakened. One obtained the power to lift a car. Another manipulated fire with his will. And yet another found herself capable of transforming into a mighty beast. The more time passed, the larger these cases grew in number. They numbered in the thousands, their powers as varied as their goals. Thus concluded the prelude that plunged London into chaos.

You are one of many, awakened to your power that night. This power and how you use it is completely up to you. So what are you going to do? Will you use your powers to do everything you have wanted? To acquire anything your heart has ever desired? Will you fight those who would dare use their powers for evil? Will you seek the truth behind your powers? Do you want to achieve ultimate power or would you rather shun the chance you were given? Or maybe, nothing of the above interests you and you just want to escape this quarantine as it continues to plunge further into chaos?

Whatever you do, the choice is your own within the chaos quarantine.

If I still have your attention after this, awesome! Let me shortly summarize: You are a human who has just obtained supernatural powers. You are trapped in the city of London, which is now completely quarantined. You will have to survive in this city, fending off other superhumans and securing whatever you need for sustenance and comfort. In the meantime, you will probably be struggling with various topics; such as where these powers came from, or how to become even stronger for reasons that are your own. Or maybe you would rather see this society return to normal and find a way to cure it? Or maybe you just want to find a way to escape this damn place.

As the above implies, I try to put a lot of emphasis on what you, as a player want. I have tried to make this a very flexible setting with many different factions, important NPCs and plotlines. All of which players could involve themselves with or leave by the roadside, with fitting consequences as a result. Simply put, I want the players to choose individually what they want to do and how they go about it. I plan on having it go somewhere between open world and a group RP. Every player will get to know eachother, but they are under no obligation to join forces or even have the same intentions or goals.
This also means I can accomodate different group sizes. Depending on the amount of interest this gets, I can adapt things. This is also the reason why I placed an "advanced" tag on this. Honestly I do not really care too much about how well you can write, as long as its proper english and a normal length (no one-liners, I usually like to have 2-3 paragraphs with sometimes more).I am only an average writer, and thus I am not expecting the writing of a bestseller from my players. I am, however, expecting active player participation and decision making. I intend to drive a plot forward based on the choices that you make; based on who you ally with, who you antagonize, ect.

Furthermore, I do not intend for this to be a very cute RP. There will probably be a lot of blood and gruesomeness very fast. The only thing that I will shy away from is (explicit) mature content, because that would be in conflict with the RPG rules. Therefore, if you can't stand the idea of somebody being gruesomely eaten by a group of angry lycanthropes... you have been warned :D

Lastly, I will also mention that I have very little GM experience. It's also a small warning that things may be quite bumpy because of my inexperience at times. I hope to find players who do not deter from something like that. ^^

Well, that's it! Thanks for reading. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Things can just never be easy, eh? :D


Julius rose his brow in the same manner at her response. Wasn't that really just the same thing in the end? Not that he felt the need to argue the point. It was fairly futile. He allowed her to believe what she wanted in that regard. He stared straight at her as he heard her rant. He wasn't about to let her intimidate him and she'd know it. He knew Addy, and she knew him. She should know that threat wouldn't get her anywhere. If anything, it just got Julius annoyed at her. Was the way he had approached her so awful that it was worthy of that demeanor? Or had he really been so bad to her that he deserved that? Well he found that out rather quickly.

He kept silent through her rant, letting her finish all the way through. During the rant his expression went unchanged, keeping his ice cold stare trained on her. Her face had gotten red that it rather amused him. He hadn't moved his head at all during her rant, allowing her to draw closer. Her reaction afterward made things even more amusing. It caused a bit of a smirk. She backed off, but he wasn't going to allow her that much breathing space. He moved his right hand to his chin and bowed forward, moving his face back right in front of hers, about the same distance it had been before. "Feeling better? But I wonder what would've happened if you would've actually said these things during our relationship instead of afterward. It's all true, sure. However, you tend to bottle things up, and then explode without really explaining anything. I'm pretty sure I would've heard a rant like that."

His smirk dissapeared "I'll tell you what would've happened. I would've apologized and told you that it must've been because I was tired. The reason we could spend to little time together was because I was working my ass off besides school and moving to a new apartment. I was happy if I could get four hours of sleep, goddamnit! I tried to give you whatever time I had. Maybe that was why it felt forced? I was forcing myself to stay awake every moment I was with you. Maybe that was also why some of my comments were off? Heck I don't even remember myself saying that. Oh, and you should see how that guy was looking at you when you. He might be married, but he definitely was not thinking of staying faithful." Oh, Julius could tell her stories about married men being unfaithful, but he wouldn't. His father's past was none of her business. He raised his voice as he continued. He wasn't yelling, not yet, but the anger was very audible. "At the very least I tried. I might've talked alot, but at least I was talking. Maybe you should've kissed me to shut me up and talked yourself. But no, you took no initiative of any kind. At least I complimented your voice, you never showed me any real affection. Whenever I thought about you, I wondered if you actually cared about me even a little bit. And honestly I am still doubting if you did. Instead of putting any effort in talking about what was troubling you, you just cut things off completely. How the hell do you think I felt back then?"

Slowly he backed off. He studied her reaction for a second, then sighed. "Whatever. I'll do whatever the heck I want. You do whatever the heck you want. If we see eachother, lets just say hi or something. Or ignore my existance, I don't care. I just can't be bothered with the same kind of silly drama like yesterday, it's so damn childish. I'm just done." He had hoped so badly to resolve this nicely, but just felt disgusted right now. He wasn't at disgusted at Addy, not at himself. He just despised this entire situation in its entirety. He waited for a reaction, just a simple nod; a confirmation that he could just have his nice and quiet for the coming days. Hopefully it was so and they could both be on their merry way for the rest of this ruined day.
@Melo

Not recently, but she was posting drunk pics on Tumblr this weekend, so I assume she is just out there being young and free. She'll come back to us. :p


Young and free?! How dare she! Everyone knows RPing is a fulltime commitment!
Did anyone hear anything from @savi? XD Julius is kind of frozen in time at the moment :P
Sounds interesting enough! Sign me up.
<Snipped quote by Remipa Awesome>

You know, after reading the lyrics you got me to ship Lila and Hunter there for a bit! :o Maybe if she were less of a snob things would work. Or if Hunter got his life together... OMG what if things could work between them one day if they both changed?!

If he ever sang that to Lila, her stone heart would warm up and she'd probably forgive him and even end up in bed with him. O.O

Props to you, Remipa! You actually got me to ship Delunter for the first time ever!


You do forget that Hunter doesn't really have the musical skills (going by his hobbies) to pull it off though... or the aviators? :P

Would her heart still warm up if it was sung like a total amateur? :P
Selessia looked at the woman, who still talked to her despite of Selessia's dismissive behaviour. She sighed once more "Selessia." She then sipped from her new drink as she turned her attention to the old man Klaus. As he spoke, it became apparent that Nullomancy was truly much more than simple training. Ashur had been able to provide her the basic crystals she needed to learn the basics of a construction nullomancer. She mainly had iron and heat charges, but she also had a number of others: electricity, water and a few magnetism crystals to name a few. Ashur told her after a bit of initial practice that he felt this was her area with the greatest aptitude. She had just kind of gone along with what he said. After all, she hardly knew anything about nullomancy apart of what Ashur had told her. She had hoped that the spectre would go further in depth, tell her about the many amazing things you could do with the powers. Maybe she could even get an awesome weapon like Ashur had. But now it sounded like she would have to put in a lot more effort than she initially anticipated. "Well, it's not like I have anywhere else to go anyway." She smiled at Klaus "In fact, traveling around the world sounds rather awesome. Meeting invisible tigers sounds rather cool if you ask me... I'm not too sure about spiders though."

She thanked Klaus for the story as she finished another glass. Then, realising the hour had grown late, she let Maggie lead her to her room. For someone who had basically lived in a treehouse for her entire life, this room was nothing short of amazing. It was almost as pretty as the room she had in Ashur's mansion. Since then she had always hoped to sleep in a room like that again, but she didn't think it'd be this soon. Maggie gave her a set of instructions and then left. She first decided to take a bath. She had been able to dry herself well enough, but that was not enough to remove the dust. She bathed herself in the soothing hot water for nearly an hour. She took her time relaxing, fearing that she wouldn't get a chance like this for a long time once the training actually started. Three times she found herself almost falling asleep in the bathtub. The third time she decided to get out before it actually happened. Unleashing her heat crystals, the water vaporized within seconds, drying her faster than any towel would. She then jumped into the bed, falling asleep within mere seconds.

She awoke to the sound of knocking on her door. The absence of light and her groggy feeling told her that morning definitely hadn't come yet. Why the heck was someone knocking on her door at this time of the night? She let out a soft and clearly moody moan as she replied "yes?" the voice she could hear on the other side of the door was Klaus' "M'lady. We are attacked by imperials. Get yourself ready, we need to defend ourselves." She let out a loud sigh. For how arrogant Arbos had been, she had at least expected his base of operations to be well hidden. In her own village there were never unwanted intruders. For all of Arbos' arrogance and nullomantic mastery, he was inferior to a bunch of kids when it came to hide and seek. Selessia quickly dressed herself and unleashed her iron charges, forming around her left arm like a gauntlet. She could feel her iron crystals starting to recharge afterward. If she were to go into a fight, better to have as much iron at her disposal as she possibly could have.
I'm writing my post right now, dangit :P

There, be happy.
