"Fifty years ago, scientists focused their time and energy on trying to discover the God Particle, hoping that it would aid them in unraveling the worlds mysteries. Though their research was quickly abandoned, with the discovery of Data. Broken down to it's most basic level, further than atoms and molecules, everything is made up of data. Humans, trees, the ground beneath your feet... We are all connected through Data.
The world began to change, seemingly, for the better. One could hardly tell the difference between what was real and what was artificial anymore. Man could create plants and trees, but scientists still were not satisfied. They thought that they could act as Gods. They began tampering with the genetic code of man, in search of eternal youth.
The consequence of a failed test subject was, arguably, worse than that of death. Men lost themselves as their data was corrupted. Some even turned into fiendish beings, appearing as demons. They were aptly given the name 'The Corrupted' and they were not easily killed off or controlled by normal means. It was only a matter of time before one of them took to the streets, bringing chaos and destruction with him.
People began to question the works of the scientists. They begged the scientists to stop their research. The scientists did not listen, they continued their work, shielded by the government. As more incidents occurred and the death count rising, the cries of the people turned into action. Their rebellion eventually sparked a war between the people and government.
Between the war and corrupted running rampant, the world became a giant battlefield. It was no longer a beautiful paradise, that world fell to ashes. The new world became known as Purgatory."
Key Points About The Present
-The rebels are currently living underground
-A strange girl has fallen from the sky and is in the possession of the new world government. After examination, it's believed that the girls data is made up of that of gods.
-Government scientists extract data from the girl, using it to create powered troops and continue their research to elevate themselves to the status of gods.
-A mole placed within the ranks of the government returns to the rebels with information about the girl and a composite disk containing some of her data.
-Rebel leaders decide to keep the information a secret, as most would oppose them using the data.
-Rebel leaders hold exams to determine candidates for a secret battalion, whom they will use the girls data on (our characters)
Other
-I imagine the powers our characters will receive to be more like devil fruit user abilities in one piece.
This is still a pretty rough idea, so I'd love to see your thoughts and suggestions! :) Feel free to ask questions and I will try to answer them as best as I can. Our characters won't be starting off with any outrageous abilities, there will be development. Also, remember that our characters would be the only ones of their kind (on the rebel side). So some of the survivors may be repulsed by their existence. Kind of like the x-men (or just mutants in general) being shunned by the very people they protect.
Soooo....yeah! Who would like to play?
