“Anomalous. Old Definition: irregular, deviating from the norm or from what people expect. New Definition: a person with special abilities; someone further along in the evolutionary chain.
“We, the members of the Council, have created a safe zone, a.k.a. Markson, surrounded by two layers of walls to protect us from this dangerous new species. Any Anomalous inside the city will be expelled to the Outlands to live away from us, the Normals. Considering that these Anomalous are a danger to the population and an overuse of space and room, we have created Guards, who go out into the Outlands and demolish the Anomalous population. They need to be eradicated to where the Anomalous gene completely disappears.
“Guards are highly trained individuals, youngest being at the age of seventeen, that are sent out into the Outlands to hunt down any Anomalous and eradicate them. The Guards are trained in schooling, being the top choices, each picked individually by Council Officers. It will not matter where these children come from.
“Each of these children will be chosen every year, no more, no less in one year and it does not matter of their age. There will be one student chosen from each level of class, of which there are four. They must be top marked in Physical Education, Anomalous History, Normal History, and Weaponry. The students with the highest marks from each of the five separate Grids in Markson: four from Slight, the west most Grid, four from Principle, the east Grid, four from Till, the southern Grid, four from Luminosity, the northern grid, and finally four from right here in Focal, the center Grid. They will all be sent to the Guard Training Center in Focal and they will train for exactly one year and a day. They will train in Weaponry, Defense, Hand-to-Hand Combat, and Anomalous recognition.
“These students should be considered privileged and, even if they come from the lowest of lowly places, they are to be accepted.”

This is a gifted teen RP. Anyone interested will be playing a Recruit, someone between the ages of 15 and 19 who goes to training to be a Guard. But you will also have a special gift that you cannot reveal to anyone, especially your trainers, or else you will be shot on spot for being an Anomalous. Drama will be created and each of you will go through training, as well as head out passed the wall to fight some of the wild Anomalous yourselves.
If we get up to twenty who are interested, great! But if we get a few, then the rest of the Recruits will be NPCs. Post a character sheet below if you are interested!

Rules
- No Mary Sues or Toms or Joes. This is in the future. Give me some creative names
- Respect me and I'll respect you. Period.
- No God Modding or OP characters
- Because your powers will be developing, put a line through them in the character sheet. This also lets me know you read the rules.
- There will only be four characters from each of the five Grids. As soon as a Grid is full, it will be taken off the board.
- You can make your own weapons, but I have the final say on whether it is appropriate or not
- Have fun with it!
