(Based on a roleplay story I participated in many years ago. I'm very much out of practice so please be kind ^^")
It all started with the looming climate crisis facing the world and it growing ever more dire during the first two decades of the 21st century. Humanity was running out of time to make the necessary changes to curb the threat and preserve what natural resources were left; and the world's leaders and most brilliant minds were scrambling for solutions.
It was the year 2067 when the solution was found... but at a cost. Yes, both technology and humanity arose and evolved to meet the crisis, but it was thanks to the "successful" results of human experimentation. In an effort to preserve the human species in a rapidly changing environment, the world's brightest biohackers, biologists, and doctors banded together to expedite the human evolutionary process via gene splicing. This resulted in a new generation of mutated humans known as: "The Gifted". These gifted humans were born with all different sorts of supernatural abilities ranging from human-animal hybrids to being able to control the weather. Realizing these abilities could be harnessed to stabilize and heal the environment, the now unified world government would end up exploiting The Gifted for their abilities but would regard them as selfless heroes that "voluntarily" dedicated their entire lives to the cause of restoring the planet aka Operation Gaia. When in actuality, these first generations of gifted "heroes" were made, raised, and trained in military facilities before being shipped out to the outside world. Though, of course, very little of what Operation Gaia was or what was happening behind the scenes actually reached the general public.
As the decades passed and the environment began to stabilize once again, the topic of The Gifted and talks of human rights began to erupt. For you see, as The Gifted and non-gifted humans began to mingle and reproduce; the population of new Gifted children began to rapidly grow with each new generation. With the exception of the first handful of generations, the Gifted were being born rather than artificially made. These newer generations of Gifted were inheriting the altered genetics from their Gifted parents and ancestors, and when you play the lottery of genetics things get even more complicated. Some children's powers manifested differently than their parent's while others inherited their gifts from ancestors father back. In some more uncommon cases, children of Gifted parents never manifest powers of their own but instead are carriers for the gene.
In the end, though, the world's leaders were met with an unexpected problem: What do we do with these Gifted children now that they have served their purpose in restoring the planet? Do we simply continue to assimilate The Gifted into the non-gifted population and, if we do, how do we keep their dangerous abilities under the control of the world government?
The year is currently 2245 and the solution the world came to all those years ago was Operation Tartarus. The Gifted are now being relentlessly hunted down by the ever so aptly named police force, The Hunters. This police force is mostly are made up of Non-Gifted humans, but there handful of Gifted that were made the exception; only after they were beaten into submission and then molded into the perfect super soldiers, of course. In order to keep the upper hand over the Gifted, the Non-Gifted Hunters were given the worlds most advanced armor and weaponry. The world government, now known as The Republic, established countless military concentration camps around the world where The Gifted would be contained and where the most dangerous classes would be imprisoned. These imprisoned Gifted, the average aging between 10 - 35 years old, are exposed to all sort of inhumane and harsh conditions while surviving confinement. However, all is not lost for The Gifted, as whispers of a Gifted rebel army echo the metal halls of the military camps and with it, hopes and dreams of freedom and equality....
Hey there, everyone!! Thank you for taking an interest in this forum! It's been a long time since I last jumped on RPG so I'm really rusty ^^" but I'm going to give it my best shot and I'm excited to have you all aboard for the ride!(If anyone is willing to Co GM and help me with storyline ideas please let me know as that would be greatly appreciated)
Before we get started on creating our character sheets I want to go over some ground rules for this RP so we're all on the same page and can have the most fun time!
Da Rules:
1.) This is going to be considered an +18 Forum so expect there to be themes that are considered adult in nature. For the sake of being respectful of others, I'm requiring that everyone put a trigger warning at the start of their post if sensitive or triggering themes are going to be discussed in post. You may be asked by a GM to put certain parts of the post in a hidden tab if the post gets too graphic or gory.
2.) Swearing is allowed
3.) Discrimination of any kind is absolutely not allowed under any circumstance. This forum thrives on diversity and is encouraged.
4.) Please be respectful to your fellow players and if any issues arise please DM me so that we can get it sorted ASAP
5.) All Character sheets must be approved by a GM before adding them to the Character Page. You may be asked to make some changes before being approved.
6.) While the plan is to have a main story line be the driving force of the forum, character interactions, personal character growth, and relationship growth is encouraged!
7.) Let's try to keep the sexy stuff to a PG-13 rating, so that means that when the clothes start coming off either have the scene fade to black or taking it to the DMs, please.
8.) You will be expected to have at least basic grammar and posts be at least one paragraph long, so no one liners.
9.) I will provide a CS and relationship sheet. Please use it as that will be preferred.
10.) Picture would be preferred for Character Sheets (No anime or cartoons please, gifs are allowed though).
11.) After your CS is approved and added to the Character Page, please make a post in OOC if any major changes are made to the CS.
Please let me know if you have any questions and I will try to answer them the best I can!
Note This is required to fill out for the characters of the RP because you are likely going to interact with everyone at some point. (even if it's just acquaintances)
We will need at least 5-7 characters before we get started with the story!
