Humanity has been living in their comfortable lifestyle in a world that has become overly dependent on technology. That's a problem. Bacterias and viruses are adapting to our antibiotics a lot faster than the scientists expected. United States of America and her allies knew that there was a possible that a deadlier outbreak was going to happen after the Ebola Outbreak. Hundreds of peoples were infected in America and thousands more in West Africa. The citizens were in panic mode as they quickly turned on their loved ones over little disputes. Then, the CDC developed a treatment for the virus and the citizens calmed down. Government officials were worried about a major outbreak hitting America. A presidential directive was quietly signed into law in response to this possibility. It maps out the government's response to a national crisis, like the Ebola Outbreak. It's known as Directive 18.

The US Military began several programs to look for signs in someone if they would inflected. Hospitals updated their equipment to combat against emergency capacity issues. And the CDC issued preparedness messages to watch for signs if they are inflected. It had been seven years since the Ebola Outbreak dominated televisions all over the world. It has faced several other outbreaks and epidemics during the years; but, the world knew what to do. What if the world was introduced to a different kind of virus? A virus that can get someone sick and kill them? What if they come back from the dead? The governments of the world don't know how to answer those questions other than to contain the situation.

In the city of Baltham, a business man that just returned for Central America hasn't been outside of his home since he came back about a day ago. Neighbors said that always see the man every morning, going over his friend's house across the street. His friend decided to call his friend, who is a police officer, and told him of the situation. They decided to go over together once the officer takes his usual lunch break to see their pal. This is where our story starts.

๐๐€๐‹๐“๐‡๐€๐Œ โ„‡ ๐๐€๐ˆ๐๐๐‘๐ˆ๐ƒ๐†๐„ ๐ˆ๐’๐‹๐€๐๐ƒ
Baltham, Washington was founded two days after the state had become the 42nd state on November 11, 1889. The city is apart of the Bainbridge Island metropolitan area, which has a population of 130,000. Bainbridge Island has 304,000. The increased in population landed in the second largest city in Washington, beating Spokanea. Baltham was named the fourth-best place to live in the United States in 2020. Both cities are becoming an increasingly affluent bedroom community of Seattle, a 35-minute ride away on the Washington State Ferries. Tourists often found themselves spending time at the island and the city used that to make a profit. They spend more time at Baltham than Bainbridge Island.

Baltham is home to the headquarters of many small and large businesses, many of which are technology companies that started in the 1990s. The city has numerous thriving commercial districts, including one shopping center: Zemreaft Mall. It has one small hotel located in the middle of Baltham and Bainbridge called, Sweet Bay Hotel; Bainbridge has three hotels. Myriad development of major retail, residential, and revitalization projects are amidst planning, in construction, or have been successfully executed in both cities. The growth has resulted in the city council to start construction on a waterfront boardwalk and marina in the late 1990s. The boardwalk was just finished a couple months ago and it expends to both cities' coastlines. A waterfront multimodal bus/ferry terminal soon opened in 2002 and allowed people to travel to Settle in thirty-five minutes.

Both cities are continuing to grow still as more people moved away from small town to large cities. It's expected that in five years, Baltham will reach 200,000 and Bainbridge Island will hit 350,000. The cities also have set a high standard for other cities in America to follow in health and cleanliness. There are five different hospitals in the city and they are capable of handling any outbreak that happens. Bainbridge is currently the healthiest city in America, following by Baltham and Dallas.

In ISOLATE, the world has learned how deadly viruses can be if left alone. The United States of America combated it by reminding people of the possible risks of another 'Spanish Flu' or another 'Black Plague'. In secret, the president signed a presidential directive into law without the general public knowing. The directive, Directive 18, gives orders for the several government-run departments and the military on what they should do during an outbreak. The public doesn't know about this directive at all. The cities of Baltham and Bainbridge Island is where this new and deadly virus is going to get it's start. A businessman comes home after spending two weeks in Central America for work. He went into his home and hasn't been out for a day. This is where our new virus is going to play out.

There are two options that we can do: a non-zombified virus or a zombified virus.

Like in both The Division and Containment, the virus starts to spread as soon as his friends go to check their inflected friend. Since we are going to start in the first days of the outbreak, we will watch it spread to other parts of the cities and soon enough it could spread all over America. The civilians are going to face hardships and do things that they wouldn't normally do. Our characters will have to watch out for other humans as they are willing to do anything to feed themselves or their loved ones. Our characters are also going to change overtime as the government tries to combat against this deadly virus. Will they be successful? Or will the entire American government fall apart (That's the non-zombified virus option.)?

In REC, we get to see everyday civilians that live in an apartment deal with this virus that turns their neighbors into cannibals. No-one knows what zombies are, just like in The Walking Dead, and they don't know what to do at first. It would be a day or two until the Washington State government reacts to the outbreak and soon issues a state of emergency. Then, the US government will also react by sending aid and troops to the state and the cities affected by the virus. However, the hospitals will soon become filled with inflected people and things will turn for the worst. Our characters will react to the whole situation from the first day. They will be changed into a different person or try to stay the same. They have to watch out of the inflected and other humans or stop living (That's the zombified virus.).

If you like one of the options, then I suggest you to type which one you like the most and post it. The option that most people like will be the one that we are going to do and the introduction post will show that as well.

  • No metagaming, powergaming, godmodding, mary/gary-sueing or anything silly like that.
  • If you do something stupid, then expect consequences that could kill your character.
  • Since this is a modern day apocalyptic survival roleplay, realism is a must.
  • Romance is okay, but if it goes beyond a kiss take it to PM or off guild (Guild rules).
  • In interactions with large groups of people, if not using a collab, work a posting order out among yourselves so that you can all enjoy it and nobody gets left behind.
  • Don't make super long collabs.
  • Have fun. :>
  • More rules will be added depending on the option that we pick.

Besides the general interested check (which is this one), there are two other interested checks: Casual and Advanced. If the number of users (that are interested) is in a huge advancement than the other interested thread, then I will be posting the OOC in the other section. If there's an even number, then I will ask which one you're willing to do.

Do you want to add something to Baltham & Bainbridge Island? Do you feel like there should be more to the plot? Should I lighten up the front? Well, you can suggest something about how to make ISOLATE a better roleplay. Just post it on the many interested checks or private message me and I will take a look at it. If the people feel like that would be a great addition, then I will add it and mention you! There are some ideas that I will reject and don't feel down about. You can still post suggestions to me at anytime without paying any fees! I am the kind of person that will consider your ideas and look into it, so feel free to share your ideas!

Since the 20th century, mankind has made advancements in technology from medicine and televisions to nuclear weapons and long-range missiles. Before the 21st century, the world's best scientists and researchers met in Paris to discuss the possibility of human augmentation. Plastic surgery and implants were becoming more common as the century was ending. The conference discussed the ethical and moral quandaries of human augmentation only being made available to wealthy, developed countries. It also discussed the โ€œneedโ€ and โ€œwantโ€ in human augmentation, and the potential for human augmentation over the next century. After the discussions, The Code of Ethics on Human Augmentation was showed to the world.

The code created standards for a form of technology that is still in its infancy. World leaders at the time were too forced on the second major period of globalization. And scientist became too focus on the global warming to care about augmentation. The world soon forgot about the code until the year 2025.

The entire world has changed for better or worst. The Digital Revolution is still going strong as holograms are becoming popular as a form of entertainment. The Middle East is still suffering from terror attacks and ISIL is still a problem in the world. More cities suffered from terror attacks from Portland to Tokyo. NATOโ€“Russia relations are still strained because of the annexation of Crimea and several other issues between them. The gap between rich and poor nations is getting worst as third world countries are suffering. More countries have left the EU.

However, the world has advanced technologically and more countries are adopting social politics like same-sex marriage into their country. Then, augmentation started to become popular in the world. It started with making your ears look like an elf's and then advanced into prosthesis. The world was witnessing something big as cyberware was becoming more common in the world. Many countries realize that Transhumanism was becoming more popular with the youth.

Russia and several Central European and Baltic State countries banned Transhumanism and cyberware among with augmentation. The citizen, that have augmentations, are facing discrimination and police brutality. These people that are augmented are now outcasts from their friends and family members as they live in separated districts and often don't talk and see normal people.

Our characters will be living at Budapest, Hungary. One of several nations that left the EU behind, Hungary is still a secondary power; but, they have improved since the Second World War. The country was the first to ban augmentations and started to discriminate against the agumented. Other countries, like Great Britain and Germany, weren't happy with them and requested that the United Nations investigate the country. But with the situation in both Africa and the Middle East getting worst, they didn't have the time to investigate at the moment. For now, Hungary and other countries are allowed to discriminate.

Either we are both augmentations or one of us is just an average human. But, we will start the roleplay off by the laws that Hungary has approved being in effect. Meaning that we or one of us will be dragged off towards one of the newly built districts in Budapest. We will live in a country that doesn't treat people with augmentations with any respect at all. This roleplay will also involved some mature themes since I am now eighteen years old. And we will have to wait until the United Nations finally responds to the situation in these countries.

The Final Frontier takes place in a relatively near-future Earth that is still dealing with their own issues. The European Union (EU) collapsed after Britain's leave starting a massive campaign in other European nations to leave as well. The collapse led to an economical crisis similar to the 2008-09 financial crisis. Britain, the first country to leave the EU, suffered the least amount of damage from the crisis because the government prepared for it. They soon became the regional power with help for their ally, the United States of America.

The United States of America entered an era of growth and prosperity as the superpower improved their health, education, and several other major factors. With the growth, America became interested beyond the Earth and started to fund National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for hopes of going to Mars. Six years of development and nine months of travel later, the Calliope space shuttle successfully landed on the red planet. The crew aboard the shuttle explored the planet for a few days, following the trail that Curiosity went on until it stopped working. Meanwhile, the United Kingdom's Space Agency began on working plans to establish the first ever colony on the Moon inside one of the lava tubes.

The United States of America's rivals, China and Russia, began to develop their own plans about Mars. They even took it one step forward and came up with several concepts for terraforming Mars. Thus, the Second Space Race began in the year 2016.

"A good death is its own reward" ~ Colonel Hardy, Man of Steel

โœ  I'm an eighteen year old male college student living in California. I am currently looking into transfer to a University of California, hoping to become a double major (someone that completes two sets of degree requirements). Since I love both History and English to death, I might focus on them unless something else catches my attention. Currently, I am studying at my local community college to get into the university from dirt cheap.

I generally will write as much as I feel like writing. I can finish up a post in a few hours If I didn't have to worry about college. Please don't come to me and say that fiction is reality because I swear to God- If you can't separate fiction from reality, then please never contact me again. Your parents have completely failed you. Just saying. :)

Anyway, just remember that I got to attend college and it might take time to work on my posts. I will tell you as soon as possible if anything changes. Hope that you will message me soon. โœ

If you are interested in roleplaying with me, then please private message me. I would also like if you put forward investment and energy into your ideas, responds, and other things that I can't think of at the moment. Give me feedback and I will give you feedback as well (it isn't too hard). Also, I don't mind if you don't want to chat with me on a regular bases. If you want to chat with me on a regular bases, then I am fine with that as well. I am open to other ideas, plots, and suggestions that you have and willing to listen; despite that, I have the right to say no to them just like you do as well.

However, I have some things that I don't like at all. Like Romances. I don't play canon characters unless I am able to change them to my liking. One sentence posts kills my interest quickly. I hate those who just stand in the background and say nothing while I am working on the roleplay by myself. And I only use threads to chat and roleplayโ€” that means that I don't want you to ask me if I can use Skype, private message, and social media to roleplay on.

I also add ideas, plots, and fandoms often enough to keep this thread fresh. So, keep an eye on this thread for new cool ass ideas.

Thursday, 10th November
A man's scream echoed in apartment room twenty-one as the neighbors heard the scream. Some of them thought of calling the police and wanted to check on the Hawkins twins, but they decided not to as they thought they watching some sort of horror film. The twins, Ashton and Isaac, had been living in this apartment for a couple months after they moved out of that horrible mobile park. This apartments were not any better than the mobile homes, but at least one of the rooms was not a meth lab. Life resumed outside of apartment room twenty-one. Inside the room, it was another story. A stunned Isaac dropped a bowl of noodles and it shattered into pieces as he saw one of the characters for a television show was sitting on his brother's bed.

The character looked at him as he dropped the bowl and it broke. "Why the hell did you drop the bowl?" he demanded an answer as he got up from his bed and tried to pick up the pieces. "You know how much the bowl cost?"

Isaac still could hear his brother's demanding tone, the tone that Ashton made when he is mad. Was he dreaming? Did he overslept work again and Ashton just forgot to wake him as he went out? He went to pinch himself to make sure that all of this was not a dream at all. He was not dreaming as he pinched his arm three times before his brother's tone caught him off guard. "Hello?! Are you still here?" he asked while putting the broken pieces of the bowl into the trash can.

"Have you seen your self lately?" Isaac said.

"Of course I have! My eyes are fucked up! We were suppose to go to the hospital." Ashton answered his brother's question. "Are you telling me that something else is happening to me?"

Isaac was about to say what was wrong until he saw his brother transforming into... someone else? His eyes were wide open as his entire body was quickly changing. It took around fifteen seconds to complete the transformation but Issac knew who his brother was... He was looking at himself, like looking at a big mirror. He stepped away for Ashton as his body was shaking and he started to breathe quicker. Confused, Ashton walked towards his brother and asked, "What is wron-."

Even his voice sounded like Isaac's.

Ashton quickly covered his mouth as he heard his brother's voice and he saw that his brother was trying to say something. He immediately ran towards the bathroom to look at the mirror. And he saw his brother instead of Ashton in front of the mirror. It was too much to take in all at once. He did look like his brother from his hair to his current outfit of the day. None in his situation would have a plan already set, even Ashton was shocked by this tranformation. Then he started to have a headache as his breathing became faster. He tried to leave the bathroom, but everything was moving around so quickly. Instead of running, he placed one knee on the ground and held tight on the shower curtain. All of a sudden, he passed out.

Sunday 13th November
It had been three days since Ashton transformed into his brother and the character from the poster. Things have been awkward for the twins as they stopped talking to each other since the events that happened on Friday night. Issac refuses to look and talk to his twin brother, taking extra shifts at work and not going home on his breaks. But, he was trapped at home for the day because it was Sunday and most of the workers (including his boss) go to church on that day. Issac started to watch the television while he heard something in Ashton's room, but he could care less as he kept eyes on the screen.

Once Ashton came out of his room, he was dressed up with his usual outfit and a pair of sunglasses. He grabbed the keys to the apartment and put it in his pocket. Ashton looked at his brother and said to him, "I am going outside now. I will be back later."

"Good." Issac only said as he sounded happy that he had the house to himself. With that response, Ashton immediately left his apartment not wanting to start another argument with his own brother. Their relationship was doing so well until he got sick and got his 'powers.' He was not sure if things would ever go back to normal, but he was willing to fix things between them. Regardless, Ashton needed to go outside and breath some fresh air. Verona has not changed at all since he got sick and missed the small quite town. It was time to visit the good old Salem Diner on main street. It was only a few minute walk to main street, given that he lived in the 'bad part of town.' Then he heard his phone go off like crazy.

He grabbed it and saw that his best friend sent a text moments ago:

BORED LETS MEET
Abigail

It was Abigail as she always that sends text like this one. He kept on walking to main street as he tried to replied to her text. After all, he still has to deal with his 'powers' without freaking everyone else out. It took him a few second before he thought of something to say while trying to sound odd at all. He started to type as he did not noticed that the whole town had arrived before he saw the majority of Verona there. Most, if not all, of the windows were broken and the clearup was getting started. Ashton wanted to help out his community as much as he can. He deleted the original text and typed the new message until he got another text from his other friend, Andrew.

Get to the highstreet, something weird has happened, i need you to ask people for their storeis.. and scrape up my remains, i'm going to talk tot he sheriff
Andrew

Ashton looked at the text and just replied with a 'yep.' Then, he got back into finishing the text from Abigail and sent it once he was done.

I can't hang out right now. Main Street is a mess and I was asked to interview the store owners by my 'boss.' Maybe later?

He finally got to work, approaching one of the store owners while he was clearing up. "Sir, could you tell me what was going on?" he asked while getting his phone ready to type the owner's answer. He was not out of the apartment for a few minutes and he got back to work.

Common Name & Motto

"The Guardian of the East." Titan, Guardian, Middle East Relief, Montu, United Republic of the Middle East (URME).


Origins

Originally, Titan Company was not always called that name. Before the Great Collapse happened, another crisis was happening in the world and it started in the Middle East. The company used to be a humanitarian organization called "The Middle East Relief." The purpose of that organization was provide aid and supplies to Iraqis and Iranians during the Iranโ€“Iraq War. They also assisted Palestinian and Lebanese refugees during the war in 1982. The Middle East Relief gained much needed attention that interested other countries to help out the relief organization. Then things got worse as the Gulf War began when the United States invaded Iraq.

Less money was now going towards organizations like The Middle East Relief and more was going towards it's army. As the war got more deadly, thousands of refugees were in hands of the nearby humanitarian organizations. The Middle East Relief did their best to rebuild lives during and after the Gulf War. However, the United States invaded Iraq and it was the beginning of the Iraq War. The war would cost thousands of lives and caused ISIS to form in the aftermath. ISIS would also cause the European refugee crisis as millions tried to escape the collapsing Middle East. Things were looking hopeless but the Middle East Relief refused to back down and began their work. That was when they met a private security company based within the Middle East, Montu.

After reaching an agreement, Montu and The Middle East Relief joined forces to "better the situation in the Middle East." As Iraqi forces slowly defeated ISIS, Montu was able to provide that extra push needed to wipe them off of the map. While The Middle East Relief helped rebuilt several town and cities as they had been under ISIS control for several years. Eventually, the war with ISIS soon ended with a crushing defeat for ISIS and a huge victory for both Montu and the Middle East Relief. However, the Great Collapse came and it had a huge disastrous effect on the region.

Iraq and several other countries were falling apart as total government control was lost over the population. As the governments of the world were slowly collapsing, government regulations over companies were no longer being enforced. It was the perfect time to assume control for Montu and the Middle East Relief. Montu overtook the Iraqi government in the matter of days while the Middle East Relief immediately merged with several other humanitarian organizations and dying companies in the Middle East region. Soon enough, Iraq and Kuwait were being controlled and observed by Montu in 2035. The two organizations managed to get the attention of the royal families of the Middle East. Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Yemen, and Jordan came up with an agreement to hold a meeting to discuss the 'fate of the Middle East.'

In July, the CEO of Montu and President of the Middle East Relief soon arrived to Dubai for the meeting. The details of what happened during the meeting have not surfaced; but in the end, both organizations were given huge amounts of money and allowed complete control of their actions within the region. Dubai soon became the organizations' new headquarters after the meeting. In a year, the city has grown into being the biggest regional hub for finance, trade, tourism, and shopping in the Middle East. This growth would result in the formation of Titan Company, the combination of Montu and the Middle East Relief, in 2040. Titan became the most powerful and influential company in the region. This new found power spelled problems with relations between the royal families.

When the annexation of the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Bahrain, the remaining royal families declared Titan to be a threat and warned others on 2044. Titan responded by hosting an 'annual meeting between the Middle East.' Oman, Yemen, Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria responded and accepted the offer while Saudi Arabia declined to go and send a spokesman instead. The meeting was held in Baghdad, Iraq and details of that meeting also have not surfaced. But, all of the people that attended ended up dead within a two month period. All of the countriesโ€”besides Saudi Arabiaโ€”quickly fell apart and Titan took control. Their arrival was rather quick.

After the meeting, Titan once again were expanding their control over the Middle East region. Israel, Palestine, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan all went under Titan control in a three year period. With their defensive force, they decided to invade the ungoverned lands of Turkey and annex their remaining lands. In a one year period, hundreds of Titan forces died while launching an offensive strategies in their first and only war against a government. With Turkey under the direct control of Titan, it was not long before Afghanistan and Pakistan allowed the company to do whatever to them. However, Titan only took what useful lands were left and let the countries rot.

Saudi Arabia was the remaining government that Titan did not control in the Middle East. Instead of a direct attack, they waited for the dying royal family came to them. It took only two months (thanks to the blockade) before the family arrived at Dubai, but it was bitter sweet victory for Titan. The family allowed them to take complete control of Saudi Arabia, making Titan Company the first to unite all of the Middle East countries as one. In 2048, Titan Company began changes to their leadership making it run more like a government than a megacoroporation. Things were looking good for the company until one day.

Several cities in the Middle East were attacked by the returning ISIS forces as several bombings happened in the cities. Private forces quickly responded and attacked back, lasting days before ISIS retreated back into the deserts of the Middle East. The attacks left thousands dead and millions of dollars in damages to the cities. Titan vowed that they would wipe the ISIS threat for sure like they did in the early 2000s. However, ISIS supporters are everywhere and difficult to control and follow. Rumors surfaced that the 'royal' families of the Middle East are behind the support, but nothing can be confirm or deny and that scares them.

President and CEO Daifallah Habib, the first president of the United Republic of the Middle East, vows that he would wipe out the ISIS forces hidden within Iraq's mountains and caves. Habib is augmented, making him a target of several attack ads and threats for religious folks, and often shows it off with his metal arm and leg painted in tan. His goals, besides destroying ISIS, is to improve human augmentations to rival EDA Core.


Leadership

Titan Company was once ran like a regular company until they controlled the entire Middle East region. That was when the company adopted a government body. The United Republic of the Middle East is a corporatist authoritarian government. Historians have point out on how similar the URME is to Portugal's Estado Novo in the early 1900s (instead of the URME being fascists). The Republic allows basic rights for the people and it acts as if it was not authoritarian. However, people who opposed the Republic often faced punishments and political parties are heavily limited. And there is not any form of elections happening as well, making Daifallah Habib leader for a very long time.


Major Industries/Brands/Subsidiaries

Titan Company - Private Security/Humanitarian Organization
Jannah Media Multinational - Entertainment & News
Dhole Evolved - Human Augmentation
Albach-Kawa Energy - Oil & Gas


Company Culture

Titan Company has always been proud of caring for the people since the early days of Montu and the Middle East Relief. You could say that they consider the people before making decisions. It also means that the private security would always go save the citizens, which is a weakness that someone could use. However, they will fight in cities full of people if it means crushing the enemy or defending their lands. The culture is also like the one you would see while working in any other government. In short, Titan Company is both a government and a business; but, they tend to be government first.


Security Detail

Titan Company also offers security to their people in the United Republic of the Middle East. Their active 'military' is one of the biggest in the world with about six hundred thousand men all over the Middle East. The majority of the troops are fighting ISIS all over different fronts, which might seem overkill to those that do not watch the news. However, ISIS strongholds are all over the Middle East and URME does not want them to be influencing anyone else to join their cause. URME also has stated that they are not interested in expanding anymore ensuring everyone that they want only the Middle East. That does not mean that they will defend themselves, if they have to.

The 'military' also allows foreigners similar to the French Foreign Legion which recruits applicants aged eighteen to forty. Like the EDA, augmentation is also encouraged in the military; however, being augmented is not popular to many.

President Habib
"We are finally the guardian that the East needed for centuries."


General Information

Daifallah Habib | Male | Thirty-two | 06 August 2016

History

Life for Daifallah Habib was easier to live in than anyone else during the Great Collapse. Being raised in Dubai and having the best education that money could offer was the thing that made Habib into the man who he is. He went to college and then university to fulfill his dreams of becoming a businessman. It took him a few years of hard work and determination, but he got it with his degree. Even know the world was dying around him. Dubai was safe for all of the chaos, thanks to the local police force. That was before Montu and the Middle East Relief took over the city and government.

He joined Titan so he could make the Middle East a better place to live in. Years of working up the corporate ladder paid off during the attacks by ISIS. The original CEO, Taajuddeen el-Kaba, was attacked during the mass confusion. The injuries were serious enough to cause the company to worry. While he went into surgery, they came up with a plan and approached Daifallah Habib to offer him the CEO spot. He gratefully accepted and waited for the results of the surgery. Sadly, he did not make it because of lost too much blood.

After a day of mourning, Daifallah Habib was promoted to CEO and given control of the government. Much of Taajuddeen's original plans were removed to be replaced by Habib's. After two months of planning, he had changed the government into something different and interesting. Regardless, he has the best interest of both the people and Titan.

Personality

Habib has always played in the corporate game during his time before he became CEO of Titan. He enjoys playing the game so much that he gets into it by challenging and questioning everyone. People know him as a man that barely has any friends instead he has his advisers and loved ones. However, he has a public life with the people and travels all over the Middle East to give speeches and enjoy time with family. The private life seems too boring for Habib, but he does have to keep somethings in the dark. He is generally a cool person to hang out with often.

Relations

Since the death of his mother and father, Habib tries to keep his relations with his brothers active. They always tried to bring the family together by hosting events during holidays. Almost all of his brothers work for Titan besides one that became an artist, which was questioned by everyone including Habib. Desptie that little issue, he tries to keep the family together as much as he could do. However, he has to run a country and a company at the same time. It makes things more difficult. As for friends, he does not have many. In fact, most of his friends are advisers that he help with running a country. He has grow close to them despite being in office for only a couple weeks. He hopes to have more friends, but he is happy with spending time with them.

Name Of Country
United Nations of Earth and Solar System; The Federation; UN.

Ruler
President Amelia Larson of British Empire.

Species
The United Nations of Earth and Solar System's population is mostly made up of humans with some species from different worlds. Species can live and become citizens of the United Nations after passing the International Galactic Citizenship Test and living on one of the UN-controlled planets for ten years (living aboard space stations does not count). There are also augmented humans that make up about twenty-eight percent of the human population.

Allegiance
Since the fall of the Old Empire, the United Nations of Earth and Solar System agreed that the planets owned by the newly established republic would be neutral towards any sort of factions. For the most part, the republic does trades with different members of the galactic communityโ€”no matter their allegiance. Despite their neutrality, they have standing fleet and military preparing for any signs of an invasion or declaration of war.

Government
Republic/Federation.

Military

History
After the fall of the Empire, Earth entered a state of chaos as the people rose up against the collapsing empire. Government officials and loyalists were hunted down and killed in several cities all over the systems. The violence and killings lasted several weeks before most of the loyalists either left or got killed. During the last week, the United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland and the United States of America reestablished themselves and started to expand into the unrest lands. Then, other countries formed to protect themselves for the two larger nations. Eventually, fifty-six countries had formed and war was soon entering everyone's minds.

The Earth was still healthy and handed the Empire's usages of their resources. However, that was changing as nuclear war was getting closer. Until the reformation of the United Nation, where it included all of the countries. Their goal at the time was to reclaim the entire Solar System for any newly formed empires on those planets. They managed to put aside their differences and built a better fleet than the Empire's old and dying fleet. Their first targets was the Moon and Mars, which had been claimed by newly established countries. With their army and fleet, they attacked and spent four years on retaking them. Thousands died and millions of dollar spent on keeping the war engine going.

Eventually, both nations surrounded and were annexed into the Federation. But the goal of retaking the Solar System was not over. That goal took fifty years to accomplish due to resistance and cost of maintaining the planets and their colonies all over the hundreds of moons. After finishing their goal, they decided to end their expansion into other systems and tried to rebuild that the Empire destroyed. All of a sudden, the Copernican Federation made contract with the Federation and discovered the Earth for the first time since the Empire's fall. The Copernican didn't like the fact that they were welcoming aliens with open arms into Earth, the home of Humanity.

The formation of their political rivalry began after their first contact and the Copernican Federation is trying to pull the Federation towards their sphere of influence. However, the Federation refuses to be influenced and they are willing to stand their ground even if they could lose everything. Despite their warnings, Earth was declared to be sanctity and any permanently destructive weapons are not allowed towards the planet. They will even help defend Earth if it's invaded by another military force.

Ar-Rutbah, Iraq
11 June, 2049

Ar-Rutbah was once a quite town that almost had a population of 30,000. That was until the 2003 Iraq War came to the small and then ISIL forces conquered the town, killing thousands. Their terror ended when the Iraqi Army attacked the town and forced ISIL to retreat into the desert. After recapturing the town, the town slowly rebuilt as more people moved into the desert town. Even know the Great Collapse happened, the town still flourished especially with the help of Titan Company. The growth was suddenly stopped with the return of ISIL and the retaking of Ar-Rutbah. Hundreds of people died during the first days of the attack as Titan tried to defend the town. Sadly, they were either killed or captured where their execution was filmed and posted on social media. With the formation of the United Republic of the Middle East, President Habib ordered his forces to prepare for one massive offensive attack against ISIL forces in the town.

A sizable force for Titan Company was getting ready for the assault as several Defender-110s and Humvees waited for the signal to attack. The men started to check out their gear to make sure that they would work during the battle. Two howitzers were being set up while men checked on the tanks and APCs. One of the men looked at the town as the lights started to turn on. It was going to be one long night. The man soon heard his walkie talkie going off, talking about the incoming air strike. He grabbed it and listened as the other man said that the strike should begin in thirty seconds.

After putting the walkie talkie back in its place, he immediately shouted towards the group of men to get ready. They grabbed their weapons and additional gear as ten seconds already had passed by. Finally, the men soon entered their vehicles and waited while the howitzers got ready to take the shot. Suddenly, they heard the aircraft overhead as they soon dropped the bombs. Several small explosions could be seen in the middle of town as several buildings were gone. The vehicles drove towards the town as the tanks and APCs slowly followed the speeding Defender-110s and Humvees. Another set of explosions could be heard and seen that were most likely caused by the howitzers. The vehicles were now in the town as they could seen the citizens running away for the upcoming battle.

Then, one of the humvees got hit by a RPG causing the thing to blow up. Immediately, the remaining vehicles took a sudden detour while the tanks stayed behind to provide cover as they fired at one of the apartment buildings. The vehicles now drove a lot slower while they looked around for any ISIL forces. All they were seeing was people trying to flee for Ar-Rutbah. It was bad enough that they did not give the people any warning to run, now there was casualties. The man looked around as he could hear what sounded like another vehicle somewhere. Then, everyone saw the vehicle as it crashed into one of the humvees. The pair of vehicles crashed inside a deli as all of the vehicles suddenly stopped. It was a car bomb.

All of the men got out of their vehicles while grabbed their gears besides the two that crashed into the building. Then, the car among with the humvee blew up as some of the soldiers fell for the impact. As the smoke started to clear, shouting could be heard as gunfire was also heard. The nearby citizens started to run away before ISIL forces fired into the crowd. Several citizens among with Titan soldiers were gunned down. The commander took action and ordered everyone into one of the apartment buildings while the APCs attacked. Men, women, and children followed the soldiers into the apartment building while the commander helped with the wounded.

The lobby was crowed with citizens and soldiers as they tried to breathe. The APCs could be heard still firing their weapons towards the other buildings. The commander soon entered the building and saw the group of people. There must of been forty-sixty people inside the lobby as he looked at the wounded. Half of those people were wounded. He coughed as he walked towards the group of soldiers and ordered them to establish a HQ. It was risky, but they could not move without helping out the citizens first. The commander went to work with taking care of the wounded until the medic could set something up. It was going to be a long night.

The news of the sudden attack on the EEC headquarters in Vatican City didn't bothered the government at all. They were finally getting the taste of fear of a sudden attack that they have to live under everyday. President Habib was reading the details of the attack from Arabian News Network, owned by Jannah Media Multinational. It was interesting to read the details of the attack on an important European city. He then placed the datapad on the table from the rest to read it.

VATICAN CITYโ€”A bomb hidden in the upper levels of the European Economic Commission Headquarters exploded at 8:34 AM local time, destroying the headquarters and killing everyone above the first two floors said the local Security and Defense Force (SDF) commander, โ€œIโ€™ve seen blasts like these before in conflicts and uprisings that happened during the fall of the EU, except they were always by a single ordnance, not dozens. Whoever did this clearly had experience in planning; we vow to hunt them down with the help of the international community. Whoever did this, we will pay them back in blood.โ€

Other parts of the city also suffered attacks during the hour, killing hundreds. Several terrorist groups have claimed credit of the attack on Vatican City. A statement was released hours after the attack by the Red Orchestra saying that they will "liberate Earth and eradicate any trace of [their] vile taint!โ€ They also claimed responsibility for the attack as well as Europe Rising, a nationalist terrorist group in Europe. Millions took to the streets to protest the groups and demanded that the European nations take immediate steps to stop them for other attacks.

Europe has now entered a state of chaos as the uniting force slowly collapses. The last time that Europe entered that state was back in 2031 when the Great Collapse happened. European corporations haven't responded to the attacks yet, but they are requesting donations to "help the victims of this horrific terror attack." Meanwhile, ISIL has not claimed responsible for the attacks in Europe today. Despite that, President Habib ordered several airstrikes against ISIL-held regions. The President issued a statement today saying that 'the Middle East is truly sorry for the losses suffered in today's attacks and will provide any form of aid to the victims.'

Meanwhile, the Press Secretary told several journalists during a press conference that the military are currently activating several operations in 'hopes of bringing an end to ISIL for good.'

After reading the article about the attack, the Foreign Minister discarded the datapad by throwing it beside him towards another table. The meeting started with the attack in Vatican City and what the government should do. The first person to spoke with the young Quraish el-Jaffer, the Foreign Minister. He knew the companies and remaining countries in the world well enough that he was appointed as Foreign Minister. And he also has a degree in History, making it easier for him to know the cultures of those companies and countries.

"I could make the trip along with some diplomats to help. After all, it has been a long time since we last visited Europe." he said to the President.

"How would that help us?" Habib asked.

"Mister President, we could finally get them into some sort of alliance to deal with terrorists. Especially ISIL." he held back his tongue but then decided to speak the 'truth,' "ISIL has gained a lot of grounds since their attacks on our cities. I think that we should-."

Habib put his hand up to silence Quraish with a look of disgust. "ISIL is just a threat against the Middle East, not us. They are not even that well-organized. You assumed that they were just because they owned a few cities? Pathetic. However, we do need to reestablish relations with them. Your request has been approved, don't dare breathe anything else. Got it?"

"Got it, sir. I will prepare for the trip then." he said as he got up and walked out of the meeting room, while biting into his tongue. After the door was shut, President Habib turned towards the other ministers and said to them, "Anyone else?"

Ministry of Defence, Nu'ma al-Aziz, said to the President as she gathered the papers, "Mister President, can we discuss about the Battle of Ar-Rutbah. We just got new development that we should discuss."

"Alright, Nu'ma. Speak your mind."

"Thank you sir." she smiled at him, "The general told me that our forces were surprised by ISIL despite the airstrike. He requests that reinforcements arrive to assist in the battle before we lose them for good. I can issue reinforcements for Jordan and they should arrive by 1500 to provide aid, if you approve."

"Alright, your request is also approved. I don't want any ISIL forces to be alive, got it?" he said to the older minister as she gathered her things. It took a second, but she was heading for the door until the President stopped. Forgot to say something else.

"One more thing, I want you to also issue attack orders on Sab' Abar, Tadmur, and Irbid at the same time. We need to make sure that they aren't resting." he said to his minister as she nodded and left the room. After that, he asked the same question again and waited for a voice. A hour and half of talking later and the meeting ended on a good note. Despite the European terrorist attack, they were ready to strike down against ISIL. If ISIL fades away for the Middle East, then it could cause other terror groups to be mortally weaken. But that was not going to happen overnight. The newly established government needed time to wipe them out for good this time around.

President Habib looked at the city of Dubai for the meeting room windows as the lights were still on. The City of Gold is still shining and it will shine forever after his death with the help of Titan Company and the United Republic of the Middle East. He took the datapad and started to look at it as he left the meeting room. It was time for some rest.

Ar-Rutbah, Iraq
11 June, 2049

The surprise attack on Titan forces was over for now as the tanks kept firing for two minutes. During that time, eight people succumbed to their injuries. The apartment building provided some medical aid and food while scouting the first level. Despite the other levels, the place seemed safe for any enemies and perfect for a headquarters. The commander, Abdul Ghani el-Allam, sent some soldiers outside to gather any remaining supplies that they left behind. The tanks provided some sort of protection while the men searched the entire area. They returned with some extra ammo and a small radio for the streets. Abdul then began to order men to set up headquarters at the staff room nearby the check-in area.

It took some time, but they were able to set up a nice little station to contract command. After trying to establish communication with the general for a hour, they were able to finally get information about the recent backup units coming towards the city. Sadly, they did not know how long until reinforcements arrived to provide aid. Command suggested to stand down and wait until further orders. They warned of incoming air strikes and bombing over the next couple days to destroy any chance of ISIL getting supplies. After the briefing, Abdul went back to finishing up HQ.

It had been four days since the briefing and no word for command since. ISIL forces advanced towards the apartment several attacks, resulting deaths on both sides.

Main Street
"I immediately called my wife to tell her about the windows. They cost a fortune to get when we first opened our store. Now, we will wait a couple weeks to fix them especially with that storm coming." one of the store owners said to Ashton as he typed down the man's words onto his phone. This was his second interview and it was not worth the time. No new information was given and the stories were similar. They walked to their store and saw the broken windows. That's it. Ashton thanked the man as he finished up typing and asked for any additional statements. The man said that people should get ready for the incoming storm and clear up the glass before it hurts someone. While he was typing that finale statement, he heard a familiar voice as the voice got closer.

โ€œYou shouldnโ€™t be here yโ€™know. Mixed race kid wearing poor-people clothes in the middle of Veronaโ€™s biggest vandalism case? Might as well climb into the Sheriffโ€™s car.โ€ Abigail tried to upset Ashton but it failed as usual, "Nah, nah, Iโ€™m kidding. Whole fuckinโ€™ town knows youโ€™re too much of a nerd to do something like thisโ€ฆ"

Abigail sat down on the counter as she asked, "...Who works on a Sunday anyway?"

"Whoever isn't at church or sitting at home doing nothing." he answer his friend's question as he quickly saved the interview and put his phone away. He saw Abigail pulled out her phone and texting someone. That someone was most likely Veronica, another close friend of both Ashton and Abigail. Veronica and Ashton's relationship started out as his relationship was Abigail, but they get close and became friends. She also did something with her hands, wanting the interview to end as soon as possible. He thanked the man once more and got back to clearing up Main Street. After dismissing the interviewee, she looked around the street and saw pieces of glass all over.

โ€œMan, either Veronaโ€™s got a team of exceptionally dumb, angry kids or one incredibly determined psychopath.โ€ Abigail smiled while holding her hands up, โ€œI couldnโ€™t manage this much chaos on my own, so thatโ€™s me out of the suspect list. Where we going next, mister Journalist?โ€

"Thankfully, people aren't pointing their fingers at you. Since no-one else knows what happened and I am getting the same shit, I report what I have to my boss." Ashton said as he pointed at Andrew Marlowe, his boss and friend. He has respect for Andrew as a good friend and a great boss, giving Ashton this job helped improved his skills for the future. The sheriff was busy answering Marlowe's questions to notice Ashton approaching behind. He waved down his boss and mouth the words, "Meet me when you are finished."

He walked away for the sheriff and went back to his friend while saying, "Now, we wait until he's done."

London, British Empire, Earth

The city of London was once the powerhouse of the Old Empire, building ships and upgrading the planet's defenses. That was before their fall caused by the world's population tried of living under a tyrant. After the revolt, Great Britainโ€”and the worldโ€”were finally able to forge their own pathways. The people immediately went back to the old monarchy of the British Empire.

This is my first time being in this kind of genre on this site, but I feel good enough that I can survive it. I picked Catwoman because I love her to death and I always wanted to change Catwoman around a bit. I also wanted to bring back Red Claw for the animated series and make her more of a threat to Catwoman than ever before.

This version's Catwoman had a tough life, like the original Catwoman. However, her parents would die because of drugs and alcohol. The detention center, combined with the abuse back home, made her life more tougher to live in. It wasn't until she found the carnival that life began to treat her good, but good things don't last long. She was forced to live on the streets working with Stan the Pimp. She made several friends, but she knew that she couldn't let the abuse keep on happening. So she fought back and killed him. Normally, Selina would of been fine with it. However, my version was fine with it at first.

Years after thinking of the possibilities (thanks to the Batman's influence), she would come to regret killing Stan. Batman's influence and their 'relationship' would impact her for her remaining life. She knew about this and left him behind, trying to turn back into the 'old' Catwoman. It never went away. However, she would be challenged by Red Claw after not finishing a job for the Claw. It took years for Catwoman to hide; despite her best efforts, Gotham suffers a terrible earthquake and Selina races back home. Now that Red Claw most likely knows that Catwoman will be in Gotham, it's only a matter of time before she's gets attack.

Normally, she would ask Batman's help; however, she can't bring herself to go to him with every problem. So, she tries to capture Red Claw on her own. Both Catwoman's and Selina Kyle's morals and ethics will be conflicted during this plotline.

If your character would accepted the bounty and/or spent time with Catwoman during 2007-2012, then give me a headsup and we could come up with some sort of fun plot together.

This is where you outline your vision for the character including any notable changes or differences from the regularly accepted canon. Ideally this can also include hints towards plot directions and potential arcs for your character.

Any additional notes you want to put either for yourself, the GM's or other players to help clarify your vision or continuity.
