Welcome to Baybridge, sequel to the RPG hit Verthaven. An original superhuman setting that is less about the caped crusaders, and more of a realistic look at what the world would be like if Superhumans walked among them. And the results... vary. These superhumans are collectively known as Metahumans, people afflicted with a strange energy that has enhanced them in some way. These Metahumans are global, and many of them are only interested in peacefully living their lives. However, it's been seven years after the worst Metahuman disaster of all time, in which a Metahuman - known as the Devil of Verthaven with the power to end the world - appeared, and attempted to burn all to ash. After her defeat, an era of great change followed. Whether for the better or worse, is up to you.
In Baybridge, it's a big city in Washington in which many Metahumans migrated into the city, hoping to find a sanctuary. You can be one of those Metahumans (Or a baseline human), and participate in this new story. Even after the Verthaven Disaster, no one is truly out of the woods yet. New threats, and old ghosts, are waiting for their moment, and it's almost time for them to put their schemes into action.
Baybridge is a character driven RP where the characters are the focus. There will be a deep and complex storyline, but the characters will be able to act freely within it and make their own decisions. The RP will be focused on the characters interactions with each other as they are pushed through a crisis.
The Theme of this installment would be genes, and the idea of a "perfect human being," and the lengths some people are willing to go in the pursuit of it, and the obsessions with genes. In a story that heavily inspired by eugenics. This RP will center around the battle against the mysterious Founding Family, and their forces as everyone puts their efforts towards stopping their goals, regardless of what they may be. The challenge comes in the mystery behind them, and who they may serve.
It's October, and a new Era is approaching.

0.1 Towards Zero
- It's a few months after the Eco-Natura battle, and the Overload Crisis, Baybridge is still recovering from the immeasurable damage they caused. However, a select few RAVENs are discretely investigating the organization that was behind both of them. They even branched out to other countries for this search. However, the world is more terrified of the threat of the Black Hound. A black armor clad assassin that has been killing British politicians left and right. The world fears this enigmatic figure with the symbol of the snarling down on his chest, and more importantly, where he'll strike next.
1.1 Oppression.
- The Harvest Festival - that is hosted in Baybridge once a year - was meant to be a time where Baybridge is finally free to relax. However, due to a surprise visit by Deborah Javuant, the leader of DOVE, the Black Hound launched an attack to assassinate her. After the initial attempt failed, the Black Hound summoned his soldiers - the Intimidation Unit - to wreak havoc on the festival. Forcing everyone there to either fight, or run, to save themselves from this monstrous threat.
1.6 Caught.
- ]In an attempt to retrieve the Mannequin and the last of the Hands Executives from RAVEN, the Black Hound has taken the Orchestra Mall in Courtbridge hostage. His terms are simple, and has no intention of harming the hostages, but would handling over three dangerous criminals to the world's most infamous terrorist be a great idea?
1.2 Cadence
- After a disastrous Harvest Festival, the Black Hound not only failed to kill his target, but he more or less handed information on his employers to DOVE and RAVEN on a silver platter. All while Meifeng Zhao has retrieved a valuable package. Now, everyone is gearing up for the inevitable confrontation - but something does not seem right. The Founding Family is currently gearing up for their upcoming plan - by kidnapping people all over the city. It is a mystery what they are after, and what they hope to gain - but it can't be good for the world at large.
1.3 Reflection
- With the threat of the Founding Family looming over the horizon, there is apparently a mole in their organization. Calling themself "The Man in the Mirror," this mystery person is contacting strangers who have been crossed by the Founding Family with instructions on how to go up against such an organization. Mostly ways they can get back loved ones who have been kidnapped.
1.4 Generation of Bliss
- Jiao-Long Liu, a very important player in the Metahuman scene, is hosting a grand party for his son who is turning six this year. This is a grand event that many businessmen, Saviors, and more, will be attending. However, this will not go as planned, as Jiao-Long is a man of many secrets, and he holds secrets that have been hidden for generations now....
1.7 A Diplomatic Solution.
- In the midst of all the chaos caused by the Black Hound, the Metahuman International Party - an organization dedicated to mending the damage between man and Metahuman - has decided to arrive in Baybridge before all hell boils over. They have been operating within the city by attempting to mend the damage, and hosted many speeches. However, the big event that the MIP are planning is a debate against a Savior Board Executive. In the midst of the revelation that the Saviors were behind the Pure, the MIP intends to improve relations between the two groups. However, the Founding Family intends to use this to their advantage...
