[17 Oct 2010|01:05am] GENE UNIT Directory CAST LIST RULES SUPERPOWERS TAKEN PBS NATIONALITIES APPLICATION WANTED APPLY PLOT PAGES In the early 1980s a secret worldwide organization know as the Gardiner initiative began to work on a chemical compound to alter human genetics. Their goal? To allow humans to develop superpower abilities. In 2008, they discovered a formula that would affect certain humans depending on their genetic structure. Once the Gardiner Initiative cut through the red tape of governments around the world they put this chemical compound into world water supplies. As only few humans would be affected by the compound, it was the Gardiner Initiative’s intention to spread the compound as far as possible in order to generate as many meta-humans. In January 2010 stories began to surface around the world of people who could perform amazing feats such as fly, turn invisible, even read minds. The Initiative began to round up these people. Some they deceived by offering to help them with their new found powers while others were abducted outright when they resisted. Those that have been captured so far have been brought to a prison-like building in a hidden location and put into the Gene Unit. Here they will live and receive training to develop and learn control over their powers until the Initiative decides it time to start phase two of their training which will induct them into the world of espionage, black ops and assassination.

Epitaph [17 Oct 2010|11:43am] Who are we? We are an original character supernatural game based in the very near future, in a world where the lines between 'normal' and everything else are fracturing all over the place. A world that seems to be pretty much falling apart and where everyone is having to adapt to stay alive. The game focuses on certain areas around the world. These areas have been cut off from the world at large, but are connected to each other by a series of mystical doorways. Each area has it's own issues and problems to deal with - whether that be rampaging vampires, supernatural gang warfare, food shortages, or just learning to get on with life. We have a friendly and welcoming game environment and player base and dynamic plots that range from the small, involving just a couple of players, to overarching game plots. A supportive mod team ensures that everyone gets as much as they can from the game itself. We're also looking for new characters! Could you play one of them? Who are you? You are Noah St James. You're an eighteen year old musician from Marquette, Michigan. Last summer, your dreams came true and you and your high school band were signed to a small record label and moved to New York to work on an album. Well, you and two out of the three other band members moved - your best friend and lead guitarist, Thom Harkin stayed behind and left the band. Only you know why - Thom has a secret he cannot tell. He is a protector, sworn to protect your little sister, Kaysen, with his life. You know his secret, you know why he had to stay behind as you left the small town for the bright lights of Manhattan. Only then Manhattan got cut off and the world around you changed. You are Devon and maybe you've been a hunter all your life. Or maybe not - your past is pretty much your own. One thing's for certain though, you can handle yourself. You're capable, and assured and maybe have a few tricks up your sleeve. Life lately hasn't been good to you though, because currently, you're missing. At least, you are according to your best friend Deacon, and according to the teenager you took under your wing a few months back, Rori. They're both looking for you and all they know is that you're alive. They'd really like to find you sometime soon. You are Heidi Ramone. You're an air elemental, but life for you was fairly normal until you took that job after college working at the Stanley Hotel. And then suddenly there were ghosts, and the place got cut off and well, there's not a whole lot to do out there in the middle of nowhere. Of course, then that door in the ballroom appeared, and you found out you could visit other places - places all round the world. And damn, but you're a curious one... You are Jen O'Reilly. Born and raised in Manchester, England, if you have any kind of a supernatural ability, you've never revealed it in public. You lead what seemed to be a perfectly normal life. You had your friends (even if one of them, Dean Conway moved away to Marquette, Michigan last summer. Things changed for you at New Year, when you and your boyfriend, Stuart (Stu) headed out into the city centre to celebrate and you've been trapped there ever since, in a town full of vampires. You've been fighting to stay alive. hell, as far as anyone knows, you didn't make it. So many people have been turned into vampires, after all. What does the future hold for you? And what does the future hold for your boyfriend? You are Switchboard. The voice of Manhattan, the nerve center of it all. You are holding it all together, playing music, playing emergency call operator, you're the sense of humor that keeps people going, the woman with the power to touch lives. Touch everyone's lives, since everything happened. There's a bright side, damnit, and you find it. And when you do, you're going to share it. Light up the dark, fill those sound waves with your voice and music. Rock on, Manhattan. You'll be there to guide. You are Maxine Bennet. Or maybe you are her husband, Brendan Bennet. Either way, you're trying to support your daughter, Roxie, who you adopted when she was 11 years old. It was only then that you discovered that she was a dreamwalker. Times have been interesting since then, and you've tried to support her. You've also tried to bring her up in the ways of your church - the Church of Harmony. you believe that all creatures, no matter what race, devotion, subset, or supernatural species or ability, deserve tolerance and peace. Unfortunately they don't all believe that in return. EPITAPH † FAQs PREMISE † RULES † APPLICATION † CHARACTER TYPES CHARACTERS † WANTED † AFFILIATIONS CONTACT US or ASK A QUESTION!
