I'm not even sure what to classify this as. Scifi? Superhero? Fantasy? Something like that. I suppose you'll have to read and find out.
You are a college student. You are broke. You have bills to pay. He is offering you a good sum to participate in an experiment. You read the briefing, something about seeing the effects of vitamins with added chemicals and how they affect a person based on gender. Several male and female college students will be called to partake, and you think nothing of it. It's money, right?
Wrong. The Scientist is Professor Finn Rohrbach, a scientist from Germany, and he has discovered a rare element that, when combined with certain chemicals, can give beings incredible powers. The rats Rohrbach tested with all developed incredible powers and he now wants to push forward and test on human subjects.
When the subjects consume their picked pills, they gain powers within the next few days and are required to stay in Rohrbach's lab. One of them, a male, consumes a black pill and goes... a bit crazy. He leaves the lab without permission and becomes a murderer, killing civilians left and right, always clever about it. Rohrbach explains everything to the subjects, telling them it is now their responsibility to use their powers to stop this man and then leaves, presumably to some private island where he can spend the rest of his life in relative peace.
There are several pills, one for each participant. For this RP to work, we need to get a few RPers and then start, once we start, it will be very hard for others to join in later. I may let one or two slip in after start up in IC, but that would be it.
My max number will be 10. This means that I will absolutely stop after 10 players but I may stop well before 10 if I feel that we won't get many more. My minimum is three, four including myself.
The way the pills will work is, you will make a list of 2-3 powers that you wouldn't mind playing. When you make a CS, you will have a section to say which pill your character took. I will randomly assign colors to these powers and make a list of colors for you all to choose from. And so, when you post your CS, I will tell you which power you got. You may only change your power ONCE and when you ask for a change, I will choose from the list myself. After that, you're stuck with what you got.
I will make rules and such as interest comes in. Thanks for reading. (:
