The Star Children (Ported from another site)!
From the Stars to the Ground, Ad Astra Per Aspera. All througout history, people have looked at the stars in wonder and in awe, without realizing that they themselves are stars. Every person, every human, is exceptional in some way, most don't just realize it. But a few know that they are unusual, and others know too. That is where we get the concept of Geniuses and Prodigies from.
Sprinkled here and there all over the country are adults and children alike that exhibit unusually high intelligence. But a far less number of them are even more exceptional, displaying powers that no other group of people can match. Who are they really and why do they have the abilities they have? Why can some people move things with their mind? Why can others set twigs on fire? Why do some have unusual strength?
There are several theories. Some say that Aliens had a part in it. Other say that it's a natural product of Evolution. A few say it's both. Nevertheless, people are after you. Some seek to save you, others seek to use you, more want to kill you. You are a commodity now.
Option A: You are these teenaged (14-20) star children. You've grown up knowing you’re smarter than your peers but you still don’t really know why. All of you display high intelligence as well as other abilities like telekinesis and super strength but they are weak and inconsistent at first. As you have high intelligence, it will certainly not be unusual if some or all of you have entered or are progressing through college. I’m looking for 5-6 of you. Your characters don’t need to live in one state or even one region of the country; you’ll be brought together. Please use the character sheet below.
Option B: You are Bounty Hunters who hunt Star Children for the Government or Other Factions. You don't have powers, and being a genius is optional, but you are grown up, have adult privileges, and are armed to the teeth. There can only be 4 of you.
Option C: You are a Government Agent whose job it is to handle the Star Children when they have been brought to you. Note that applications for this are accepted only if 1.) you are a player known for their reliability (aka having lots of free time). There can be as many of you as there are kids, aka 5-6.
Name:
Appearance:
Age: (14-20 please unless you're a Bounty Hunter or Gov't Agent)
Sex:
Power (in addition to high intelligence; nothing too crazy please):
Short bio:
Rules:
1.) No Godmoding or Powergaming, aka no controlling other players' actions, no defeating your enemy in one shot, and no shrugging of all hits without an energy shield, or really good armor.
2.) Keep romance - any romance - PG-13 or slightly above.
3.) If you're going to be away for an extended period of time, please inform us instead of making us wait for you.
4.) No arguing in OOC, please.
5.) Have fun!
