You were born with a special gift...
...but the people around you treat it like a curse.

Your mother is afraid of you
and your father looks at you with shame in his eyes.

Come to Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp,
and you can show them all.

Back home, your powers make you a loner...
an outcast...
a circus freak.
But in this dojo...
in this psychic dojo, they make you

a hero.

You fold up the gold, crimson bordered pamphlet and place it square on your desk, glaring at its face. A large illustration of Agent Ford Cruller, one of the greatest Psychonauts to have ever lived, decorates the page.

To soar across the astral plane,
to wage psychic warfare against the enemies of free thought.

Receiving a boost of inspiration from Cruller's words, you hastily scavenge through your desk for something to write with; after flipping the brochure, you fill in the application form with a dreary, chewed pencil.

Cerebral Chaos

This is an RP based off of Psychonauts (a 2005 video game by Double Fine), the story of Razputin, a young boy with psychic abilities that runs away from the circus to go to Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp to train (as a Psycadet) to become a Psychonaut - a spy with extraordinary mental powers. As you progress through the game, you delve into the minds of many abstract minds as you develop your character and his PSI powers. I'm not gonna spoil it for you, it's an amazing game you should pick up sometime.

It's not necessary that you've played the game to join; there'll be none/few of the cast involved and only teeny tiny references to the story may be made. If you haven't then here's a few things you'll need to know.

Rules:
- General Roleplayers Guild rules apply, no racism etc.
- I expect decent grammar/spelling with at least one paragraph of writing. Should you get attacked by the mental demon known as Writer's Block then I won't kill you ;p
- Romance and violence (little blood/gore please) are allowed as long as we keep it clean >_>
- As per usual, no mary-sues, and nobody starts with Teleportation.
- While this isn't a rule per se, I advice that you don't go too deep with your character, so we can get some tasty development in there ;p
- No swords/guns. I mean seriously, who needs guns when you can shoot hate from your face.
- I won't urge you to post every hour or anything silly like that, but try and keep active whenever you can (be bothered :p)

I guess that's it for the rules -_-"

When everybody's signed up we'll get going I suppose. Sorry if this isn't entirely what you expect from a first OOC post ;p

Our story begins with everybody arriving at Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp, getting to know everyone etc.

Characters:

Is it okay to use other abilities?

I forgot to mention, if any of you have any extra ability ideas, then go on. They have to be psychic, like ;p

Are you okay with Cyrokenisis? (Ice)

Name: Kyle Hale
Age: 16


Strongest PSI Power: Pyrokinesis
Other PSI Powers: Levitation, Confusion, Telepathy

Personality: Kyle is fun-loving and seemingly carefree, quick with a laugh and slow to anger. Generally enjoying the quiet moments of life; those directly after finishing a project or assignment, long, warm days in summer spent outside, the cool of an empty room. Were one to look into his usually warm, somewhat mischevious blue eyes for long enough, however, one would see the marks of a warrior of a bygone age; depth, discipline, passion, empathy, and a certain confidence about him that is both reassuring and intimidating.

History: Kyle grew up a circus performer; an animal tamer, fire-eater, acrobat, in short, an all around master of the seemingly impossible, despite his strange upbringing it wasn't until he was 14 that his psychic abilities began to manifest, unfortunatly, around that time the circus tent had burned down, the ringmaster had run out of money, the dish ran away with the spoon and what was left was but a lonely knife and fork, ashes, and boy, devoid of home and family, who had spent a little under a year now at a nearby orphanage (and the occasional night in the cell of the backwater town's local police station). Later that same year he recieved an envelope, inside was a brochure detailing the wonderful world of Camp Whispering Rock, upon reading the brochure he hastily filled out the application and sent it in.

Extra: Kyle is a kleptomaniac, often stealing things that don't serve any purpose to steal just because it's shiny or because he can, or because he can't stop himself. Kyle is, as was previously mentioned, also an accomplished acrobat, and as such has the agility and stamina befitting it. However, while animals seem to respond and even have an almost instinctual liking of him, Kyle can sometimes seem callous or uncaring to humans, this is not the case, it is simply that Kyle is both passionate and outspoken, a combination that gets him into trouble sometimes, in addition to the myriad of other things that will get him into trouble

(Not the best character ever, but he'll do the job)

It'd be Cryokinesis :p and sure :D

Is this still happening?

I hope so

Interest = expressed. However could I add a few PSI powers?
