Conduits or Bioterrorists are a sub-species of humans who possess superhuman abilities afforded to them by the "Conduit gene". Conduits can be present in both humans and animals, and their abilities can range from manipulation of a certain forms of energy or matter, to flight, enhanced senses and strength, or other physical and mental enhancements.
Conduits are the result of a rare mutation in human beings. This ostensibly named "Conduit gene" is naturally occurring. Those with the Conduit gene usually have no powers at birth and may live their whole lives without realizing what they are, with a few ways of identifying Conduit potential.
So the setting of the RP before we begin will be a kind of run down Denver. Below hopefully will answer any questions you may have along with a quick synopsis of what is happening in this RP or what the lead up was.

It was an era of peace. An era of greatness. An era where any man or woman, poor or rich, deviant or mundane, could prosper. There was once a time, long ago, when this wasn't the case. A type of human called a conduit, was created after a machine known as the Ray Sphere exploded, sending a flooding wave of radiation across the world. Conduits could manipulate any form of matter to their will, and they had enhanced endurance and strength. Humanity didn't accept them. They turned them away. Conduits were mercilessly killed for displaying their powers in bloodbaths. Humans were killed by the hundreds. It was total war. Soon after, it was discovered that the same radiation that turned all humans into conduits was responsible for a disastrous plague that ravaged thousands upon thousands of humans each day, leaving the conduits unaffected. After all this pain and suffering, one conduit, named Cole MacGrath, sacrificed himself in an attempt to save those afflicted with the plague at the cost of the conduit gene and those carrying it killed off. His attempt was in vain for the machine made for such a purpose was severely damaged leaving Cole MacGrath to face the beast with only his powers.
The Beast is a conduit, one that can unlock another conduit's abilities at the expense of great energy and massive destruction that kills all those without the gene. It ravaged the east coast all they way down to New Orleans were Cole fought it but to no avail. Another city was lost with the people crying outrage that it was because of the conduits that they were suffering.
Most of this war has been isolated to the North American continent. The world titters on the edge not sure what to do. A plague still ravages the masses with the potential to break out and consume the world. The beast lurks among the ruins of once great cities, an army at his beck and call of conduits willing to join the cause. Walls are made in a vain attempt to protect civilians. The masses still want the conduits to be blamed for the mess, but the government has turned to them for aid to fight this threat under the head of a conduit named Brooke Augustine with aid of the lost hero Cole MacGrath. Some have risen to the occasion to show peace can be made, like the hero of Seattle, Delsin Rowe with his fellow conduits proved to protect the city from a surprise attack by those that support the efforts of the rogue conduit called the Beast. Others have induced fear into the people in an attempt to destroy what they call 'the bio-terrorist threat'. Yet will riots nearly happening every day can the world ever return to what it once was? Can conduits and normal people stop bickering to save themselves?
No more is the fight just a war, it's a fight for survival. If the plague and the Beast can't be contained then the rest of the world will fall, conduits taking over the ashes

The following footage was recovered from Channel 6 Conduit News, on January 24th, 8:14:56 PM EST.
A man is standing in front of a camera. He appears to be standing in an old, abandoned factory, due to the chains and pipes of varying sizes in the background. The man has a tan, scarab shaped mask on. It's weathered and beaten, covered in pockmarks and scratches. It appears to have recently been in battle. However, his suit is polished and well defined. It is dark, almost blending into the background of the factory. The man simply stares into the camera for a few seconds, his neon green lights giving off an odd, eery glow.
"What makes a conduit?" The suited man's voice rings out, hollow and metallic. It's been digitally altered, to add an aura of intimidation and fear. "His personality? His appearance? His opinions?" His strips of neon green lights fade and glow as he speaks, flickering in and out. The man begins to strut around the factory. Each step he takes, the metal grating shakes. The camera fuzzes out for a moment, briefly returning to the original news broadcast. It then slowly fizzles back to the original footage. The man is standing in a new area.
Behind the man are two figures. One is clothed exactly like the ringleader, but looks to be more a grunt who does the dirty business. He has the same suit and mask, albeit slightly wider to fit his more muscular frame. The man's neon strips on his mask are dark, signifying he hasn't been speaking. The other is dressed in ragged sacks. His hair has long outgrown, and he hasn't shaven in weeks. Police analyzation reveals this to be the man who disappeared one month ago in Macon, Georgia, revealing he's been kidnapped for several weeks now.
"Here we have Harry Meadow. A family man from Macon, Georgia." The leader drones on, emotionless and uncaring. "He's a family man. A healthy young wife and two children, boy and girl. He's 34 years old. He's a farmer, selling his crops for money. Unfortunately, Harry's also a conduit." The man gestured toward Harry's hands. They were both contained in a large, steel ball. The metal ball was also the same restriction that the government uses on rogue conduits to entrap them and keep them locked up. The man slowly walked over and kneeled by the man.
"Harry Meadow is a liability. A danger, to everyone, including himself." The man revealed his hand. They were encased in golden gloves, with neon, green glowing strips forming a pattern on them, similar to the mask. "Imagine. Harry here gets drunk. He gets mad. He goes on a rampage, gathers some rogue conduits to help. Next morning, Macon is ravaged and destroyed." The man slowly placed the metal glove on the back of Harry's head, gripping the scalp tightly. The man tries to say something, but his words come out in a hoarse whisper heard by no one.
"What makes a conduit is his powers." The man's gloves made a loud, starting up noise. The neon strips all began to glow brightly. "And what were to happen if you took away those powers?" Harry Meadow began to make a horrible screeching sound. Sparks flew from the glove. A neon glowing blue energy flowed from Harry's pores, seeping into the neon strips of the gloves. Harry was clawing at the air and convulsing. It was a horrible scene. The man simply tightened his grips. After 30 seconds, the deed was complete.
The man stopped, and slowly stood up once again. He straightened his tie. The leader raised his gloves. The neon green strips were now a dark, maroon red. Suddenly, a large, flaming pillar of fire erupted out of the gauntlet. "This is his power. Harry Meadow's ability to control and manipulate magma. The Ray Sphere radiation absorbed." The fire disappeared, and the man lowered his gloves. He leaned in close to the camera. His face was emotionless and hidden due to the mask. "I thank you for your time tonight, people of the world. Thank you for watching this special broadcast."
The man paused, and the neon green strips briefly faded. "And to any conduits watching this broadcast.." The man's face was hidden, but it was clear he was smiling. "You have nothing to gain. You have nothing to run from. The Syndicate has arrived And you. Will. Fall." The man raised his glove, and a pillar of fire erupted from the gloves, interrupting the footage and filling the screen with white, glowing embers. The hacked footage ended, and the regular conduit news filled the broadcast once again, unknowing of what had just happened.
Most people thought this was a joke. A harmless, but poor taste, joke. People started to take this a lot more serious when they realized Harry Meadow was a man who went missing. Police soon investigated the Meadow residence, only to find him hanging in his bedroom. There was no suicide note. His family members report that he arrived home in an armored van and was thrown out onto their yard. His family was overjoyed, but Harry didn't seem to notice. Harry didn't say a word, in rags and long hair over his eyes, and locked himself in their bedroom, where he killed himself. The footage struck fear in the hearts of most conduits, leaving an impressionable mark on conduits and people alike.

1. No metagaming, godmodding, powergaming, etc. etc.
2. Try to be kind to any other fellow RPers in OOC. In IC, however, you can be as much of an arse as you want to another.
3. Try not to make very short posts. While I do admit in some RPs I have been guilty of this, try to do at least 2-3 paragraphs per post.
4. Stick with inFamous lore. Don't do sudden retcons or huge changes to the lore. If you haven't played the games yet, it's cool, just wiki some junk if you don't know it.
5. NO ANIME PICTURES. I just love this rule.
6. Try to be unique with powers, by that I mean no repeats please. If a power is taken that you wanted well unfortunately you'll have to find something else.
7. Have fun! If you don't, The Syndicate will take you.
8. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE. Please only join if you are willing to commit to a long haul. I don't expect you to post every day but merely that you don't just up and disappear from the RP like a ghost. I wish to have this RP have longevity to it but that means I need people who are willing to stick to the RP.

Name:
Scorn aka Chloe Allaire, Leader of the Reapers
Age:
25
Gender:
Female
Appearance:
Lovely skull face woman on the right (Yes old fanart of Scorn herself shame it never got finished by the person who started it)
Side:
InFamous
Personality:
She's a deranged psychopath that enjoys watching others suffer. She has no love for normal people, in fact she would rather watch them all suffer under her powers as well as those conduits who stand in her way.
Biography:
Before her powers, and before Conduits were even known publicly, Chloe had been a good girl, a kind person who was shy and timid around most people. No one ever bothered her or asked why she had bruises on herself since she had always been such a kind person, why would anyone harm her. No one knew her home life. She was raised by a neglectful and abusive father and mother. Her mother wasn't even her real mother, her father had had a drinking problem for most of his life and had a child with another woman who left Chloe on his doorstep. He would of gotten rid of her, if the woman he hadn't been a part of a dangerous gang and she hadn't left a letter saying if he dared got rid of the child his head would be cut off.
Of course this made tension between her father and step-mother who hated Chloe, only raising her because of the fear of what would happen if they didn't. Despite that though, they beat her and treated her as if she was garbage yet it never made a dent in Chloe's kind nature. She always tried to look at the light of things. Her parents might of been drug addicted, drunks who hated her but she led a happy life, she might of not had many friends but those she did have she loved them like they were her family. It wasn't until one tragic event that pushed Chloe over the edge and ended that precious life and reborn her as a cruel and psychopathic killer. That event that would spawn her new persona, Scorn.
Her father had been drunk and probably high at the same time but he forced himself upon her, which led her kind self to die, finally unable to hold back the truth, the truth that her life was a dark one, a cruel one. That the only thing that comes from being raised by two monsters, is an even greater and deadly monster. Scorn was born and she hatched a plan to get her revenge after fifteen years of neglect and abuse. She drugged her parents one night and when they awoke both were tied up in chairs facing one another, and hooked up to an impressive work of a hand made contraption that would have them kill each other. The fear that Scorn saw in their eyes made her smile and laugh. Oh how she tormented them, causing them pain and suffering like they had to her before she allowed them death. First her wicked step-mother who she had made her father slit her throat, and then through this end, allowed him to see the device work in motion as a Rube Goldberg machine made its rounds where in the end a gun would eventually kill him. When cops finally arrived on the scene, they only saw Scorn laughing hysterically and repeating the words 'I WIN!' over and over again while a house was ablaze behind her.
She would plead insanity and with the evidence that it was true she was abused and her parents had a record, the courts would agree with that assumption and sent her to an asylum upstate. Here she would cause even more chaos. She became the most insane person they had there and was kept in twenty-four hour lock-down. She remained in lock-down for three years before her powers manifested at the age of eighteen. Upon her power's manifesting, she escape the confines of her prison with ease and disappeared into the shadows, she would not be seen for five years, not until she declared her claim as head of the reformed gang, the Reapers and her territory being all of Denver.
While hiding she learned of the Reapers and more about the events of New York City, where she found her true calling. She met the last two remaining conduits of the old gang there and learned as much as she could about the old gang. She also recruited another man, the last of another gang that had been in New York City, that gang had been called the Dustmen. He was the last surviving conduit of that gang and despite the fierce rivalry that had existed many years ago in New York City an alliance was struck between her, the Reapers, and this Dustman.
Now Scorn head of the newly reformed Reapers, her main task is taking the head off of the group calling themselves the Syndicate and abiding her time until the Beast shows itself again. She has hatred for humanity but doesn't want to rule a destroyed city.
Power:
Shadow Manipulation
Power Abilities:
Teleportation- Being able to use shadows as a means to go between distance though she can't go super far this way, mostly used for means of getting behind an opponent that she's facing to surprise them. Can also be used to gain access to tall building tops, a quick way to scale large structures and get around swiftly at times if there are lots of shadows around.
Shadow shot- a concentrated shot of darkness that does some damage to her opponent, can be focused to do increased damage.
Shadow Rocket- Shoots a ball of darkness made from shadows that are around her. Explodes on impact surrounding the person in darkness as well as doing quite a bit of damage but costs quite a bit of her energy.
Shadow beast/Shadow camouflage- able to create a beast, more commonly the shape of a rather large dog, or in myth what is called a hellhound and have it appear when she uses Shadow camouflage, a form of distraction basically. While she camouflage's into the shadows the beast appears to distract her enemies as she either slips away or gets a better advantage.
Shadow grenade- A densely packed ball of shadows used as a means of blinding her opponents, it doesn't do much damage but rather temporarily blinds them allowing her to strike quick and fast with another attack while they are blinded.
Other:
She has haemolacria, a rare condition where rather then crying tears, she cries blood. It was from her abusive parents that she got this.

Name:
Kiera Drogoth
Age:
23
Gender:
Female
Appearance:
Side:
Hero
Personality:
She's a rather upbeat but serious person that can handle a joke from time to time. She tries to think positive of most things but knows that not everything can be perfect and simple and has a mind of a strategist from the years of being with her father who had been in a gang and got out but still had enemies on him. She's loyal to her friends and will protect those that she cares for even if it means death. She is a compassionate person and tries to help all those that she can, when she can.
Biography:
Kiera was born into a dangerous life. Her mother abandoned her to his father, not caring about her and thought of the night that she had shared with Keira's father a one night fling with unexpected results (of course it wasn't the first time these results happened from a one night fling). Keira's father was left to decide his daughter's fate, as much as he at the time did not want a child, he couldn't get rid of her so he took care of her, and did what was expected of himself while he resided with the gang. When Keira was about five though, he managed to get himself out of the gang, faking his death and ran into the hills, having Keira and himself live a life of seclusion for the most part besides the long trips to take her to school. He taught her most of what he knew and that she had to be careful, because he still had enemies and explained more as she got older on his past life. She had been shocked to learn that her father had lived such a horrible life but never left or was angered by him. She was more disappointed by him but was proud he had gotten them out of that terrible life to this nice one.
Eventually though all good things come to an end and his old gang did find him and ended her father's life while Keira was attending her school studies. She came home to the smoldering remains of a house. This was when her powers appeared. Outraged she let out a scream into the night that shook the air and made glass shoot out of the ground around her. She was shocked and scared at what happened and ran.
While on the run, she stumbled upon a person who looked nearly like her in a lot of ways. From what she learned, that girl had called herself Scorn though she learned that her real name was Chloe after some digging . She found it odd that both of them never knew their mother, coincidence perhaps but the events that made them not know their mother were nearly identical. Both were abandoned, left with their parental fathers. She tried to make friends with Chloe but eventually figured she was too insane and far gone to have any means of a normal friendship. Eventually she left Scorn not learning their relation until a little later. By then it was to late to find her again, the old place that she had stayed with Scorn and the others beginning the new group of theirs had moved on.
For a time Keira traveled the country, never really settling anywhere but just seeing the sites of the United States, that is until the events of New Orleans drove a wedge between mankind and conduit-kind. She settled for Denver and works as a local nurse trying to help the sick and those afflicted with the plague.
Power:
Glass Manipulation- Shape, compress, and/or otherwise manipulate glass, including properties such as color, opacity and flexibility. Includes granulation, heat/cold resistance, polish glass, repair glass objects, resistance/invulnerability to damage, sharpen/dull glass objects, and thermal resistance.
Power Abilities:
Glass Shot- Fires a glass blade from palm, though only one shot at a time, can do quite a bit of damaged when focused properly.
Shrapnel Grenade- A glass grenade that on explosion sends out shrapnel of glass, downs weakened foes.
Glass Surfing- Her form of transportation, she takes a piece of glass and forms it into a platform she's able to stand on and can surf on it basically.
Glass Shield- Takes glass from surrounding environment to form a glass shield around her. She can harden it to take quite a bit of damage but can only do it for so long before it shatters.

She drugged her parents one night and when they awoke both were tied up in chairs facing one another, and hooked up to an impressive work of a hand made contraption that would have them kill each other. The fear that Scorn saw in their eyes made her smile and laugh. Oh how she tormented them, causing them pain and suffering like they had to her before she allowed them death. First her wicked step-mother who she had made her father slit her throat, and then through this end, allowed him to see the device work in motion as a Rube Goldberg machine made its rounds where in the end a gun would eventually kill him. When cops finally arrived on the scene, they only saw Scorn laughing hysterically and repeating the words 'I WIN!' over and over again while a house was ablaze behind her.
She would plead insanity and with the evidence that it was true she was abused and her parents had a record, the courts would agree with that assumption and sent her to an asylum upstate. Here she would cause even more chaos. She became the most insane person they had there and was kept in twenty-four hour lock-down. She remained in lock-down for three years before her powers manifested at the age of eighteen. Upon her power's manifesting, she escape the confines of her prison with ease and disappeared into the shadows, she would not be seen for five years, not until she declared her claim as head of the reformed gang, the Reapers and her territory being all of Denver.
While hiding she learned of the Reapers and more about the events of New York City, where she found her true calling. She met the last two remaining conduits of the old gang there and learned as much as she could about the old gang. She also recruited another man, the last of another gang that had been in New York City, that gang had been called the Dustmen. He was the last surviving conduit of that gang and despite the fierce rivalry that had existed many years ago in New York City an alliance was struck between her, the Reapers, and this Dustman.
Now Scorn head of the newly reformed Reapers, her main task is taking the head off of the group calling themselves the Syndicate and abiding her time until the Beast shows itself again. She has hatred for humanity but doesn't want to rule a destroyed city.
Power:
Shadow Manipulation
Power Abilities:
Teleportation- Being able to use shadows as a means to go between distance though she can't go super far this way, mostly used for means of getting behind an opponent that she's facing to surprise them. Can also be used to gain access to tall building tops, a quick way to scale large structures and get around swiftly at times if there are lots of shadows around.
Shadow shot- a concentrated shot of darkness that does some damage to her opponent, can be focused to do increased damage.
Shadow Rocket- Shoots a ball of darkness made from shadows that are around her. Explodes on impact surrounding the person in darkness as well as doing quite a bit of damage but costs quite a bit of her energy.
Shadow beast/Shadow camouflage- able to create a beast, more commonly the shape of a rather large dog, or in myth what is called a hellhound and have it appear when she uses Shadow camouflage, a form of distraction basically. While she camouflage's into the shadows the beast appears to distract her enemies as she either slips away or gets a better advantage.
Shadow grenade- A densely packed ball of shadows used as a means of blinding her opponents, it doesn't do much damage but rather temporarily blinds them allowing her to strike quick and fast with another attack while they are blinded.
Other:

Side:
Hero
Personality:
She's a rather upbeat but serious person that can handle a joke from time to time. She tries to think positive of most things but knows that not everything can be perfect and simple and has a mind of a strategist from the years of being with her father who had been in a gang and got out but still had enemies on him. She's loyal to her friends and will protect those that she cares for even if it means death. She is a compassionate person and tries to help all those that she can, when she can.
Biography:
Kiera was born into a dangerous life. Her mother abandoned her to his father, not caring about her and thought of the night that she had shared with Keira's father a one night fling with unexpected results (of course it wasn't the first time these results happened from a one night fling). Keira's father was left to decide his daughter's fate, as much as he at the time did not want a child, he couldn't get rid of her so he took care of her, and did what was expected of himself while he resided with the gang. When Keira was about five though, he managed to get himself out of the gang, faking his death and ran into the hills, having Keira and himself live a life of seclusion for the most part besides the long trips to take her to school. He taught her most of what he knew and that she had to be careful, because he still had enemies and explained more as she got older on his past life. She had been shocked to learn that her father had lived such a horrible life but never left or was angered by him. She was more disappointed by him but was proud he had gotten them out of that terrible life to this nice one.
Eventually though all good things come to an end and his old gang did find him and ended her father's life while Keira was attending her school studies. She came home to the smoldering remains of a house. This was when her powers appeared. Outraged she let out a scream into the night that shook the air and made glass shoot out of the ground around her. She was shocked and scared at what happened and ran.
While on the run, she stumbled upon a person who looked nearly like her in a lot of ways. From what she learned, that girl had called herself Scorn though she learned that her real name was Chloe after some digging . She found it odd that both of them never knew their mother, coincidence perhaps but the events that made them not know their mother were nearly identical. Both were abandoned, left with their parental fathers. She tried to make friends with Chloe but eventually figured she was too insane and far gone to have any means of a normal friendship. Eventually she left Scorn not learning their relation until a little later. By then it was to late to find her again, the old place that she had stayed with Scorn and the others beginning the new group of theirs had moved on.
For a time Keira traveled the country, never really settling anywhere but just seeing the sites of the United States, that is until the events of New Orleans drove a wedge between mankind and conduit-kind. She settled for Denver and works as a local nurse trying to help the sick and those afflicted with the plague.
