    World Forged by Powers OoC

    The World Forged by powers explores what the world would be like if super powers were real.
    • It takes place in the modern day and uses sci-fi rather than magic.
    • You can play as practically anyone you like.
    • It is always open to new players no matter how far along it is.



    A brief history of Earth:

    Timeline:

    Powers and Technology:
    Spoiler



    RULES
    1. No stealing from other media. All material must be kept at least a little bit original. In other words, don't put stuff we could get sued for if we put it in our comic. Change the names and don't directly copy things.
    2. No magic. This includes runes, curses, chants, etc or unrealistic powers. All things must be explainable by what I like to call "superhuman physics" if you have questions about what this means feel free to ask me or one of the other GMs on this thread.




    Player Character Sheet Format
    (PCs may only be controlled by the player who owns them.)




    NPC Sheet Format
    (NPCs may be controlled by anyone as long as they stay in character. Try not to throw them off their plot rails willy nilly, though.)



    NPC Group or Organization Format
    ------These are groups/organizations that exist within the world that the PCs or NPCs can be part of.

    Legal Name: Amber Frost.

    Nickname(s): The Coilgun.



    Equipment:

    Her whole clothing is woven with Nano-tube Capacitors, which she uses when no other power source is available, and constantly recharges with static, when it's needed.
    She normally keeps several small, steel projectiles about herself, usually in the form of spheres, or more aerodynamic design, in order to fire them at higher speeds.

    Appearance:

    Height: 175 Cm. ''5'10 feet.
    Hair color: Black
    Hair length: Hanging down to her waist.
    Eye color: Pale blue.
    Skin color: Unnaturally pale, due to her lack of sun exposure.
    Body shape: Athletic, and agile, though not over human standards.
    Facial features: Delicate and refined, sporting a thin, but sharp nose, medium sized eyes, and thin lips.

    Date of Birth: August 7 of 1993.

    Race/Gender:
    Race: Human.
    Gender: Female.




    Legal Status:

    Registered super.
    DSE agent (Captain).
    North American.
    Criminal record: Accused of multiple murder, acquainted by lack of proof. (Quite shady matter, DSE involvement in her freeing is likely.)

    (I'll edit if something needs to be changed, or I left something important out.)


    Information.

    This is an already established organisation within the RP, so feel free to join if you want.

    Group Name: The New York Special Collections Network AKA NYSCN

    Purpose: They take and execute various contracts, ranging from delivering packages to obtaining packages to protecting individuals to eliminating individuals.

    Reputation: There’s always someone willing to take whatever job the group is given and generally the ones that aren’t any good at it end up getting killed off rather quickly.

    Foundation: It wasn’t so much founded as it came together at around the mid nineteenth century.

    Group Size: Around a thousand, special servicers included.

    Group History: It started small, of course, but since many people saw the benefit in sharing contacts and special services, it grew pretty quickly, up to the point where freelancers basically stand no real chance.

    Group Location(s): New York, New York

    Legal Status: Shady, mostly, although some cops know how to use the Network to obtain information.

    Other: The different agents themselves usually do not care for one another that much, and if one of them is threatened or killed, then it was most likely their own fault anyway. If someone so much as touches a special servicer, however, the group will unite to take down whoever did so.
    They can't all be victories, so let's at least make this a draw.

The combination would get the school closed down very quickly, so you'll have to make a choice between either the brutal tests or the prestigious school.

    Now, without children dying there are still plenty of options for her education to have been ruthless and intensive, and without the prestigious status the DSE could still have recruited her from it, so you can make either choice without there being a significant impact on the rest of your history.

    As for the rank of 'Captain', the DSE follow a different ranking system (and I apologise that this isn't mentioned anywhere yet):

    Director
    Deputy Director
    Assistant Director
    Section Chief
    Division Chief
    Special Agent In Charge / Assistant Special Agent in Charge
    Supervisory Special Agent
    Special Agent

    Post the changed character sheet again so we get another alert to take a second look at it.

    Greetings here.

    I saw the first instance of this roleplay running around, seems immensely interesting.

    Once I finish editing out the alien references in the powers/tech list I'll put it under a hider to make it more visually appealing.

    Nah don't worry, got the reading done. Awesome and quite complete backstory. I like it. I also love how you still capitalize LASER as an acronym x]

    I'll hopefully come up with the CS tomorrow.

    Oh well, I was kind of sleepy when I wrote it, and I even thought it up while I wrote it, so I didn't notice the inconsistency of it before. I think I might add some stuff to it as well, make it more detailed. Anyhow, I just had a cup of coffee, so I'm ready for round two.

    Yup, the Ministry is totally playable.
