Up above the clouds dwells a floating city known as Columbia. Life is peaceful, the citizens going about their daily lives as they have for years. Many citizens follow blindly in the word of the prophet and founder of Columbia, Zachary Comstock. A few have grown wiser, have learned not to trust everything that the "prophet" says. These people have started a group, a society that specializes in matters that are best kept out of Comstock's view. They call themselves the Knights of Songbird...
Far below Columbia, hidden deep in the Atlantic Ocean lies another city. Rapture. It is a bustling underwater utopia, the people are happy and spoiled. But with the recent discovery of a substance called ADAM, things are looking down in parts of the city. ADAM has been used to create plasmids, and now some people have become addicted to splicing, and so are referred to as Splicers. This is not the worst of the evil in Rapture... to get ADAM, it must be harvested from young girls. But the process renders them into walking zombies, known as Little Sisters. Orphanages have been created as a front for ADAM factories.
The scientists who have been working on the Little Sisters caught wind of an experiment performed by Columbia's own genius, Rosalind Lutece. The experiment involved one child and used quantum physics to allow the child to seemingly open multidimensional "tears", windows to parrallel realities. The success of the Lutece experiment sparked curiosity into Rapture's scientists, and they have now began experimenting on the Little Sisters, as well as any unfortunate civilian they can manage to lure in. The experimentation is practically torture, the victims trapped in a prison. This experiment has been taking place for months, and has managed to stay under the radar from the rest of Rapture as they continue to splice and go about life. But one victim sees an opportunity... and they take it. One experimentee has escaped, and they are in search of help...
Some knowledge of the Bioshock series will be required for this roleplay, if you have not played the first game or Infinite, I suggest going to the wikia for Bioshock and checking out the timeline/history for Rapture and Columbia.
This roleplay will take place in both Columbia and Rapture. Most of the characters will be part of the Knights of Songbird society, but there can be exceptions. The escaped victim is an open part, and if you wish to roleplay as them, just let me know. First come, first served. I am fairly flexible on characters, so if you have a plan for how to bring your character into the story if it be different from being in the society or what not, just let me know and the worst I can do is say no, haha.
The plan is for the escaped victim to make their way to Columbia in search of Madame Lutece, and after warning Lutece of the experiments, she approaches the Knights of Songbird to help. So the roleplay will begin in Columbia and lead to Rapture after a short period. Vigors will be available for use in Columbia settings and of course Plasmids once in Rapture. Weapons are allowed as well, for a weapon list, check out the wikia also.
