This is an(other) idea I'd like to put up. There are some people in the modern world who have the potential to unlock extraordinary abilities; we call these people 'Exposed'. Very few people know about their abilities, and those who do have hidden it from the public eye (some of them may have performed vigilante work). Anyone who shows extraordinary talent openly usually disappears days later; where they are taken, no one knows.

Well I guess I can tell you. They're taken to special facilities where they are studied, and it typically doesn't end well (to unlock these powers, most people have to undergo intense stress, but it could be different for anyone). An extremely powerful individual, known as Subject 66, seems to have more 'Exposure' than any other Exposed ever encountered by these scientists. Unfortunately for them, 66 has vanished - presumably kidnapped by a rival organization. Now, these scientists have searched the globe for more Exposed and openly recruited them - offering to teach them how to further hone their abilities. Their plan is to quickly train a task force of Exposed to find and extract 66. After that... well, that's where the real story begins.

Before anyone says anything, 66 is very powerful; if push comes to shove, 66 will not fall easily - if at all.

What causes the Exposure?
No one knows, and that's the way it's gonna be for a while. Could be anything - a genetic mutation, magical spirits, alien minerals, who knows? No one, that's who.

Do I have to be Exposed?
No. If you want to play a normal person, that's fine. If you want to play someone who uses gadgets and armor, that's fine. Up to you.

interested.

@TJByrum I am interested in this RP

Great. I'll try to get an OOC up this weekend.

Hey, this sounds really cool. I've done one like this before but it ended quickly. Hoping when this starts it will keep on going.

I'm very interested in this idea, pm me or something when you post the RP! :)

@projectodin @greywolf375 @knockout709 @tcarullo25

I was busy, and I'm usually always busy, but I will see if I can get the OOC up this week.

I'm just gonna leave this here till later.



This superhero role play takes place in the modern day, starting in the year 2016. A number of individuals in this world have been Exposed, allowing them to unlock extraordinary powers. The vast majority of these superhumans have no idea they can harness such abilities, and those who do generally keep it to themselves. Anyone who has ever shown exceptional skill, and who could possibly be Exposed, has disappeared - having been kidnapped by a covert research group known as the Society.

No one is sure where the Exposure comes from. Perhaps it is some natural mutation in our genetics, or maybe it radiates from the earth, or perhaps it is power emanating from the far reaches of space. Some Exposed have more Exposure than others. It affects everyone differently, and so anyone can have almost any power imaginable. Vague myths exist about 'superhumans', but not many people believe they exist. Only secret groups like the Society know the truth - though they don't know everything.

Recently, the Society has come across someone with an unusually high amount of 'Exposure', making them the most powerful superhuman on the planet. This person is known to the Society as Subject 66. Unfortunately for them, Subject 66 has vanished - presumably kidnapped by another covert organization.

In order to retrieve Subject 66, the Society has 'reached out' to a select number of individuals who they believe to be Exposed. These people will be pushed to their limits to unlock their powers, forming a task force capable of securing Subject 66. But once these superhumans show themselves to the world, their lives - and the lives of everyone else - will change forever.

[h]Rules[/h3]
Rules are subject to change.
1. No character may be completely invincible. Similarly, no character must be God-like, though I do not want to discourage you from selecting your powers and abilities.
2. If player-vs-player combat is to occur, it should take place in turns, and it should be mediated between both players. If their is a disagreement, my word is final.
3. You are NOT required to be Exposed. Your character may use special gadgets and technology to match the powers of the Exposed, or can be average vigilantes.
4. Characters with powers were either unaware of their talents, or hid them. No one can begin as a full-fledged superhero, though a 'low-scale' vigilante career is allowed.


Subject 66 - A mysterious individual with extraordinary powers. Perhaps the most powerful superhuman their is. Abducted by the Society, though their whereabouts are currently unknown.

I'm honestly extremely excited about this. Can't wait!

Interested!

Takes a look.

This looks neat
Color me interested

Sounds pretty good ;).

I'm interested, there is a super from another RP that I could adapt. I've used her before a put a great deal of work into her so I think she'll fit into this quite well. The only question I have is this: What are the restrictions on how and when the character's abilities develop? As part of my character's back story her abilities are genetic and developed when she was fourteen in a high stress moment. Is that satisfactory or do I need to come up with something else?

I may be interested in this if you're still accepting.

If you're still open, I'm interested

I'm interested! I have a perfect idea for my character! (Now stop interrupting me with awesome rp ideas! I need to post a post I've been putting off for weeks!)

Yup, interested.
