If I post anything in the incorrect place I am sorry I am new here :(
I do beleive this is where I post R.P's up for discussion?

Persecuted

Human beings have finally begun to evolve, to go to that next step. It started with one, then two, and then eventually there were a hundred. It has only been two years since the first advanced human appeared, and it has been three months since their “condition” has gone public. People are either ambivalent, or fear them and what they can do. People of the government have proposed to collect those with gifts, and they have a method. But the restrictions of the government are preventing things from becoming evil. Civilians have begun to take it into their own hands, and some of the evolved have been killed in “accidents.” Accidents that have gone ignored, especially if the individual was known to have powers.

The evolved are beginning to go into hiding if they went public with their powers. If no one knows, they try to continue to blend it, but some can not. Then there are those that have split up into gangs, to protect themselves, and each other, some even work to protect those that persecute them, becoming hero's of sorts.

This actually sounds very interesting. If you would allow me to I would like to be a part of this.

I just have a couple questions before I post my character profile.

1. When you say powers, do you mean like any kind of power, or something specific?

2. I assume when you say "accidents" you mean that they are getting killed off?

3. I'm a little confused as to what kind of person you can play as. If you could make that a little clearer for me I would really appreciate it.


Otherwise, I think this has a really nice premise and could be a fun RP  ;)

I do have to say, I am rather curious about this one as well, and I would like to know a bit more about it as well.

Generic evolved- This is someone with powers who wishes to blend in with others.

Gang/Hero evolved-This can be a gang of normal civilians who wish to get rid of the evolved or a team of evolved who either want to wreak mayhem or save others.
Hero's self explanatory-work alone to save those who need it.

Normal civilian–Someone who either doesn't believe in the evolved,  or who doesn't care.

Up too 6 powers.

Hope this helped :3

I guess it may help the rp if at least some of the pc's start off as friends, friends of friends, relatives, friends of relatives, and like that?  Maybe eventually forms a group like the Defenders, which use to be a group of supers in marvel comics who had no official status.

Just wondering, when you mean an evolved person, do you mean someone who would have powers like Spider-Man or Wolverine sort of thing?

Ah, it's all good, that's what I was kind of after, and not really....I actually now, don't know what I was after from asking that.

Because I have a character from my own little universe that I could use in this RP, it's just that he had features about him that makes him stand out, you know, wings, a tail, blue skin sort of thing :lol:

Hehe cool, cause he does have a power, super strength, but it's not great you know, not Hulk strong or anything like that, I suppose you could say, more Iron Man kind of strong.

But yeah, I'll throw up a profile using one of those template things you have provided us with ^^

Name: Drake
Age: 20
Orientation: Straight
Appearance: He has blue sking, wings that reach down to his legs and a tail.  He has short black hair and tends to wear only a pair of shorts.
Personality: Is indeed, rather friendly, but of how humans have treated him, doesn't tend to like them as much, however, still does heroic like deeds when he wants so to speak.
Background: How he came upon his powers, or how he became what he is, is a mysery, even to him and he is still trying to figure it out himself as well.
Power: Flight, tail impalement and limited super strength, healing as well (not fast healing, but not slow either, it's more medium paced so to speak)
Other: He stays in an abandonded church, so that no one would really try and find him.

***

Name: Zoe
Age: 19
Orientation: Bisexual
Appearance: She wears a shirt and pants, as well as a pair of metal guantlets to which she had created for herself.  She has long black hair as well.
Personality: Upon first look at her, one would believe that she isn't all that friendly, however, that's where the whole "Never judge a book by its cover" comes in, as she is rather friendly actually.
Background: She was raised up by her parents of course, but when they were killed, she had to leave her home and met Drake, deciding it would be best to stay with him at the moment.  She had also created her metal guantlents because of a strange power she has surging within her, so her guantlents channel that energy into blasts as well as more power when punching something or someone, however, she can't remove them as she has added in tubes that run from the guantlets and into just above her wrists.
Power: Energy blasts via her guantlents as well as increased punching power, also, she is rather computer smart as well.....if that counts as a power XD
Other: Nothing else really that hasn't already been explained

Well, those are my two characters, I may bring a third in as well, or I may not, haven't quite decided on that one yet.

Awesome Charries :))

[Name] Trinity Hawthorne
[Affiliation] She is against the existence of the Evolved
[Code Name] Mindfreak
[Age] 20
[Orientation] Straight
[Appearance] Trinity has white-gold hair that falls in silky ringlets to the middle of her back. Her shorter bangs sweep across her forehead, barely skimming her right eye before blending in with the rest of her hair. Her eyes are a deep sapphire blue hue and appear almost violet in certain lighting conditions. They are quite narrow and angular, rimmed by wispy black lashes. Trinity’s complexion is quite pale, and gives her the appearance of a china doll. Her small button nose has a sprinkling of light brown freckles over its bridge, seemingly the only color to her face. Even her full lips are pale pink in color. Trinity’s features are sophisticated and angular; she often appears older than she is. Trinity is not very tall – she stands at just 5’3” – but she is fit, with subtly defined muscles. Her height accentuates her curvy figure, but she tends to cover it up with her nondescript clothing, all of which she wears in varying dark colors. Her overall appearance gives her a delicate yet misleading angelic quality.
[Personality] Trinity is cold and calculating, with no value for her own life or the lives of others. She holds grudges against several people, and it is her desire for revenge that drives her. She is quite ambitious, but the motivation behind these ambitions has been tainted by her overwhelming bloodlust. Trinity is nearly void of all emotion but hatred and anger; her mouth is always set in a hard line, her eyes glinting maliciously. Her vendettas have caused her to become completely callous to anything and everything. She is closed-off to the pain and suffering of others, and isn’t afraid to walk over people to get what she wants. She has an extremely violent temper hidden under the unemotional mask.
[Background] Trinity grew up as a “troubled” in a broken home. From a young age, she began to develop a very violent nature that grew progressively worse with time. Her first killing was the drowning of her cat after it had scratched her. At the age of twelve, she beat her friend’s dog to death because it had growled at her. The smallest things would set off her temper. Her human murders began when she was fifteen – she killed her abusive step-father with his own shotgun while he was sleeping. However, Trinity still had a sliver of humanity in her heart, which remained only because of her loving mother. Sorrowfully, knowing she could no longer return to her mother, she took to the streets without looking back. She wandered alone for the next few years until, at age 18, she began to evolve. Not knowing what was happening to her, she hid on the outskirts of town until the transformation was complete. She eventually returned to town with her new powers, keeping them a secret from anyone and everyone she saw. Not long after her return, she heard that her mother had been killed – by an Evolved, no less. This event was the straw that broke the camel’s back for Trinity. The last of her compassion drained away. She became a monster. Hearing of the reward being offered for the capture of the Evolved, she immediately applied for a job as a bounty hunter. The government inevitably found out what Trinity was; but instead of putting her in confinement, they let her have the job. Their promise to her was that, if she continued to be of value to them, she would be the first to be treated if they found a way to reverse the effect of the evolution.
[Power] Psionic blast (ability to overload another's mind causing pain, memory loss, lack of consciousness, vegetative state or death after having created a psionic link into that individual's mind); telekinesis, Possesion
[Other] Trinity is skilled with firearms and also in martial arts.
--------------------------------------------------

Name: Tiffany Barker

Age: 16

Appearance: Tiffany has long brown waves that reach just past her waist and is constantly tied up. Her eyes are a peculiar shade of violet and are large, making her look innocent and sweet in any situation. Tiffany wears clothes to match her eyes, sweet and innocent, usually with a few bows. She doesn't like dark colours and usually wears bright pastel colours and hair accesorries that stand out in a crowd.

Personality: With Tiffany, what you see is what you get. Tiffany is very gentle and loves just about everything and anything, an optimist at the least. She is not easily afraid, but is completely defenceless in any case. She is almost always smiling and will join in with conversations. Tiffany can make the best of most situations, but disaproves of many things. She stands by her beliefs and is not afraid to say what she thinks, which usually gets her in trouble, but not much trouble. It's hard for most people to stay angry at her. Tiffany can get quite emotional, and never cares to hide it, but would rather make a bit of a scene. You can trust Tiffany, unless it's something extremely against her morals, then she would most likely judge you, but would still never tell anyone.

Background: Tiffany's father died when she was a toddler and her mother was stricken with grief, soon spiraling into depression. Tiffany does all she can to make her mother happy and that means working hard in school, doing all the chores and even cooking meals on bad days. Her mother was improving until her sister, Tiffany's aunt Lorraine, died. Once again, Tiffany was left to pick up the pieces and spend another chunk of her childhood helping her mother get back on her feet.

Powers: Telekenesis, Fire Manipulation and Animated Hair ((Basically, she can grow her hair whenever she wants. It's totally random, but oh well.)) Time Manipulation.

Other: Tiffany, has some habits that she does when in different moods, like twisting the hem of her dress when she's nervous or scared, running her hand through her hair when she's been complimented, playing with strands of her hair when she's tense, etc.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Jayden Roberts
Affiliation: Jayden is his own person and affiliates himself with no one but is not unknown to work with gangs, even the occasional 'hero'
ëCode’ or Gang name: He hasn't earned himself a nickname yet
Age: 22
Orientation: Straight
Appearance: Jayden is 6'5" and firmly built, with a lean frame. He has a four inch scar on the left side of his face. There are a multitude of scars along the rest of his body, but they are generally hidden. His eyes are green with a hazel hint around the edges. His hair is an unruly black that he wears longer. He has a bad boy look about him. He tends to wear simple jeans, and an old leather jacket that he has owned for years. But it is not uncommon to see him wearing different clothes. He is just more comfortable in jeans and a simple t-shirt.
Personality: Jayden has a dark disposition, though he is not evil in any way. He just lacks the capacity to care deeply. He tends to just do as he wants, despite what it might mean for others. There is some capacity in him to care, he just doesn't know its there. When he does care, he doesn't really show it with words. He does it with acts. He will got to the ends of the earth for something that he believe is right, it does not matter what will happen to him when it comes to this. He's smart, especially mathematically, and with statistics. He knows how to work the streets, and because of that he is a fighter - mentally and physically.
Background: Jayden grew up in the bad part of the Bronx, making his living with little assistance from his parents. He has done just about every type of drug and has dealt them. Made good money off of it as well. When his gifts manifested Jayden took advantage of them, until his younger sister was killed by another dealer he ripped off. Her death was gruesome, and Jayden was forced to watch the whole of it. It is largely the cause of who he is today. Jayden withdrew then, disappearing for several months. His gifts manifested after her death.
Power: flight, telekinesis, and healing (He heals quickly, but when he heals others he takes on their wounds and has to endure the pain. It can also be destructive, but only if he is touching a person.)
Other: Jayden is open about his powers, he does not care if anyone knows what he can do, but he won't tell them if they don't ask.
