LastGen OOC

In the year 2055, there was a cataclysmic event known as the "Impact Aura" event. A meteor crashed into earth without damaging anything, but sent out a large aura that affected all human life on the planet. birth rates declined drastically, with 1 in about 10 million pregnancy actually resulting in child birth. At first this was thought to be the end of humanity, but there was a light in the darkness. Each of the children born, around the age of 5, developed psychic abilities.

The Impact Aura event was speculated to be a helping hand from superior beings assisting humans in evolving into higher beings as well, weeding out the children that had no psychic potential and bringing out the psychic potential in those who had it. Basically, it was a selective genocide of the old humans.

Scientist nicknamed the new children the "LastGen" children, an idea that said with them, humanity would die out and a new race would form, so they were the last generation of "normal" human kind. To help develop these children in safe and helpful environments, they created special schools for them to go to. Since there are no more child births the number of students in classes are amazingly low. Only 600+ children were born, and they were gathered in their respective countries to be raised together to ensure that their DNA would be passed on.

So, the rp will focus on a school that houses 4 or 5 LastGen children, and it will center around their daily interactions, and those that have plots for the children.

Let me establish the base rules for this

1. Not first come first serve. I am taking a limited amount of people to keep the rp under control well, but I don't only want to take those who can churn out a CS faster. I will accept at most four people into the rp based on how much I like their CS.

2. There will be a post rotation so things don't get to crazy.

3. Try to post once every day or so. This is only gonna be a small group so we do need everyone to post at least once a day to keep the rp active.

4. Fairness, no god mod, auto hit, etc. This is standard stuff people.

5. Remember the post length, this is probably gonna be a low to mid advance rp.

6. GM's word is final. If I say something, do it. It's just easier this way, I hate being tyrannical, but I'd rather do that and get stuff done than waste time arguing over stupid stuff.

7. Don't be a dick, this goes hand in hand with rule 6, just be nice to other people.

I tried to do this in casual but I decided to restart it in advanced.

This is all form the int check I created to for those who've already read it you don't have to again, and now it's time to share some new info.

Some people wanted to know more about the rp itself, so I'm gonna talk a little about where the rp is heading. So it will start off with the small group of teens interacting with each other. I intend for the first few pages to pretty much be driven by character interaction more than anything else. After this, we'll dive into some more interesting story arcs.

1st. In your character sheets I'm going to ask for potential arc ideas centered around your character. These arcs will mot likely be only a few pages long and used in between the larger arcs as fillers while I plan out the arcs in more detail. Every character will get an arc centered around them that can be used to flesh out your character more, establish relationships, but mainly this is for everyone to get a feel of your character. During each of these character arcs, I will let whoever is the "main" character control it, since it is your personal story arc.

2nd. Obviously not all humans want the LastGen to be the only remaining kind, so there is an opposing faction simply known as the "Agency" that will cause some trouble for the students during the rp.

3rd. Of course, Aliens. Why else would a meteor have the ability to selectively wipe out beings, right? There will be interactions with the "progenitors" as they'll be identified for now. They have their purposes for doing what they did, and also have a plan for the LastGen children.

Now, CS's. Remember, I'm not accepting everyone that applies and this isn't first come first serve. i'll wait a few days and then make a list of those who have been accepted. If you're accepted, good for you. If not, sorry that I used up your time without an results.

the format is

Name:
Age: (15 -17)
Gender:
Sexuality: (incase any romances bloom)
Appearance:
Personality:
Background:
Psychic Power: (Here is a wikia of psychic powers listing. Just say it's name and link it for this part)
Potential Personal Arc Ideas: (Just give a list of potential ideas)

I debated having people post a background or not and eventually decided I should, just a short simple one including how you discovered your ability, how the government got you, and how it affected you during your child hood.


Also, my own CS and some teachers as well.

Spoiler

Name: Eva Dorian
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: http://digital-art-gallery.com/oid/5...igital_art.jpg
Personality: A very kind hearted girl, Eva tends to want everyone she knows to be on good terms with everyone else she knows. She hates conflict, but doesn't shy away from it should it arise. Instead she tries to put a stop to it as quickly as possible. She's eager to rush to her friends sides', and if she had grown up in a normal world, she'd probably have gotten into trouble for he friends a lot.
Background: Eva grew up in a normal family until she turned 5, the age when most of the LastGen children gained their psychic ability. She found she could create balls of psi energy using her ergokinesis, and used this to play game slike baseball with the kids in her neighborhood. Once her parents found out, out of fear of what she could or couldn't be capable of, it caused them to turn her into the government almost immediately, where she grew up in the care of the government for 12 years. Now, with decent mastery over her abilities, Eva is being sent to the special LastGen skill
Psychic Power: Ergokinesis
Potential Personal Arc Ideas: I already know my own plot so I'll keep that a secret.

So remember, not first come first serve. Also, don't be to detailed. I just need the basic information when it comes to background info and stuff. I like letting characters develop within the rp itself more :).

A few questions:

Firstly, about how powerful should our abilities be? Considering that your character's power is the manipulation of every kind of energy, I'm feeling that the baseline power level is ludicrous. Basically a team of Akiras, here.

Second, can we use a source for our powers other than that Wiki? The number of articles are paltry and the formatting is juvenile. I suggest using the much more professional Superpower Wiki in its place.

I was thinking of using the super power wiki, but the only problem is that isn't limited to only psychic powers. I did however address just a second ago in the int check that providing other links are fine. Also, I planned on limiting myself to the use of psi energy and maybe a secondary energy format only so the baseline isn't "Ludicorous" as you say.

Alright, that's something of a relief. I was afraid that I'd have to pull some Touhou-level bullshit just to keep up.

I have a power for my character in mind, but I'm having a hard time categorizing it. What would you call the power to create and manipulate cosmic entities (stars, planets, etc)? Obviously this would start very small (a gravity well here, a nebula there) but will eventually scale upwards (miniature stars and black holes and such).

I'm not exactly sure that I would call that a psychic power. I do think working with the idea of gravity, maybe focusing on physics like forces and mass may be a good way to go though. Being able to manipulate the mass of an object, it's gravitational force, stuff along those lines would probably fall more into psychic abilities than cosmic entity control/creation would.
