Midcreek, a typical, peaceful town in California, has just been wiped off the map in a catastrophic gas explosion. To the knowledge of all media sources, all 3,421 residents of the town, mystifyingly, are now deceased.
All, as it seems, but several teenagers who must now flee from civilization with a price on their heads.
-
Plot
In the December of 2013, several Midcreek locals learnt of a political conspiracy that could potentially see the inprisonment of the President as well as several of those working under him. The group who had learnt this information did not share their data and continued to research in to the conspiracy, agreeing to only reveal their findings to the public when they were completely sure that they were correct. However, their research was never complete, as in early March, 2014, the government caught wind of their snooping. The President did not know what to do. He knew that only residents of Midcreek knew of the conspiracy, but he didn't know how many. The conclusion he came to? Kill them all. It was lucky for him that there was a large gas power station by the center of town.
It was the day of the High School Prom when it happened. The explosion went off and quickly obliterated the town center, including the High School and all the students and teachers inside. The government took all the precautions to make the flames spread to every corner of the town. If anyone survived, soldiers sent by the government would throw them back in to the flames. There was not, according to government records, a single survivor. 3,421 dead. Any residents who had recently left town were hunted down and researched - and if they looked a threat, they were assassinated. Any who had left some time ago were left to live, as they did not pose any threat. It was one of the largest disasters in American history. It was a huge talking point. The government were criticised, the gas company was criticised, everyone was criticised.
Ultimately, however, it seemed that the President's plan had failed, and there were survivors. Several, from the local High School, who, for whatever reason, had not turned up to the Prom and had instead had the luck to run in to a man that would save their life. These students, together, fled. Some attempted to find their family - they were killed. Some split off from the group after escaping the town - they were killed. Some attempted to get in to contact with anyone they knew out of town - they were killed. The half-a-dozen-or-so who did stick in the group ultimately survived, but only on constant run from the government, who would surely learn of their existence any time soon. Their lives would never be the same again, or so it seemed.

Opening Setting
It's dark. You're in the back of a van beside several other people of your age. Nobody is speaking. Around an hour ago, you and those around you escaped from your hometown, which is now no more after a huge gas explosion. You don't understand what is going on, but you heard someone mention that you were being hunted by soldiers, and you would die unless you got in the van. So you got in the van. You don't bother over-analysing the situation at hand, you are too focused on comprehending the deaths of everyone you ever knew that lived in the town of Midcreek, including your family. You've been told that if you try and contact anyone, they will be put in danger, and they will die.
The man driving the van took your phone away and snapped it, so you have no way of knowing where the hell you are or contact anyone anyway. After a while, the van stops, and the driver lets you out. He hands you and the teenagers around you several bags of supplies - sleeping equipment, food. It's enough to last a while. You realise you are in a forest somewhere in California. The man solemnly explains why he cannot stay and returns to the van before driving off in to the distance.
You have half a dozen people around you, but you've never felt so alone. You're stood on a dusty roadside in the heart of an expanse of trees with only standard supplies to keep you alive. You look around and realise that you will need to stick together if you want to survive. The path ahead will be rough indeed.

CS:


Name : Michael DeLorenzo (Nicknamed: M-D)

Age : 18

Gender : Male

Sexuality : Heterosexual

Personality : Micheal tried to remain cool and calm and takes a situation as it presents itself. He uses sarcasm to help deal with a situation most times, but never at the expense of belittling others. Does what he can to help foster unity within the group realizing that the only way they'll survive is working together. Will help others without asking and puts the needs of others above his own. Michael is not afraid to interact with others, but most times just enjoys being quiet and being deep in his own thoughts.

History : Michael was born and raised in Midcreek and he is the youngest of three children. Dad (Robert) was the Sheriff and his mom (Ellen) was the high school principal. Michael had a dream of leaving Midcreek, because while his family is very well known and Michael is pretty sociable in public he is actually very quiet and keeps to himself. He hated the spotlight and his main reason for wanting to leave was to be known for being his own person. Michael loved his family but everyone knew his family so well that at times Michael felt like he was mainly known for his family more than his own accomplishments.

Michael was part of the yearbook staff as a photographer, and had been accepted to Ohio St on a scholarship where he was going to major in photography,

Michael is into photography, Sci-fi, murder mysteries, the music of Bruce Springsteen, The NFL, and working out

Appearance : Stands about 6'1" 220 lbs

Clothing : Blue Jeans, Black T-shirt, running shoes, and a leather jacket.

Skills & Weaknessess : Michael has a very keen eye for detail and seeing the big picture. He thinks fast on his feet and is not afraid to become physical to defend himself or others. All that being said Michael hates being compared to others, especially his own family. Anyone who tries to compare him to someone else and Michael gets very "annoyed". Michael is big/strong but however he doesn't possess great speed. He also has a fear of bats and frogs.

Other His older brother Eric was in his second year at UCLA as a starting Tight End, and his oldest sister was Adrian was at the University of Houston. Since it is believed by the outside world that everyone in town is dead Micheal realizes that his brother and sister believe that he died as well, and though it hurts him he has accepted that as a fact of life now.

Edit: Why wasn't he at the prom? At his Junior Prom Michael's girlfriend dumped him at the prom. He wasn't interested in being a part of something that could reopen an old wound. (Interestingly enough his ex-girlfriend, her new boyfriend, and their family members got pulled over for the slightest speed violations a lot by the Sheriff's Department for an entire year)

Dmessenger, real life pics only. I'm sorry but other than the pic, your app just doesn't look good enough for Casual, let alone High Cas.

MST3K, that app looks pretty solid. You're in.

Edit: Also, if anyone wants to be a younger character (13-16) I could open a slot for a younger sibling of my character. If anyone is interested in playing that role, PM me.

Working on getting the character sheet together. First time upgrading to casual, though, so don't be afraid to tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Are pictures necessary? I feel weird using pictures of real people, but I can if it's that important.

He said it was high casual. A bit too close to Advanced for me. I'm not that good at writing yet. I'm dropping out. Sorry.

Though her hair is cut short, to the ears.


Name: Lillah Lawson

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Homosexual

Personality: Lillah is the loner type: she's silently broody and keeps to herself. She's angry by default and isn't very patient with people--but has developed the self control to deal with them despite. Her sense of humor is lacking and she'll roll her eyes before she laughs. She's a person who's hard to get to know and doesn't show much interest in getting to know others either. Despite these negative qualities, she tries to be a better person and will grudgingly land a hand where ever it's needed. She's brave, but not stupid, and very independent. She believes she knows how to take care of herself, and therefore has trouble accepting help from others. Factored into all of this is insomnia, clinical depression, and anger issues.

History: Lillah lived with her adoptive father with whom she had been since she was a toddler. He got more of a son than daughter, though, as Lillah picked up video games and sports instead of dolls and dance. That said, even sports weren't really her thing for a while: as a pre-teen, she was forced to pick up--and eventually loved-- kick boxing as a means of self defense by her father.

Needless to say, she wasn't exactly the most popular kid at school. Her sophomore year is the primary reason why, however: she got into a fight with another student in defense of second student. However, the disciplinary office went easy on her, and she was given the choice to join a non-contact sport as a means to work out her aggression or expulsion--she went with track. (If anyone wants to play either of the students she got into a conflict with, I'd be down for IC drama.)

Come prom night, she chose not to go because, "It's lame as fuck, dude." Besides, she wouldn't fit in with the crowd, anyway... Now, she's without her father and stuck with a small part of the student body she dislikes in general.

Appearance: She has a straight, boyish figure and a short hair cut to match. Although lean, she's muscular as well: her limbs are toned and the beginnings of abs sit at her mid drift. However, she doesn't really go out of her way to show off her rectangle-esque physique, save for her arms since--when she's not wearing a coat or sweatshirt--she prefers tank tops and other sleeveless tops. Her skin is dark olive in complexion and her eyes a light, exotic brown. Her hair is dark brown, as well, and stops just short of the bottom of her ears. She stands at about 5'6" and weighs in at about 120 lbs of angst.

Clothing: Camouflage cargo pants, a white tank top over a sports bra, a plain hooded sweatshirt, and tennis shoes.

Skills & Weaknesses: On the plus side, Lillah is independent, resourceful, and street smart. She's good at self defense, as well. Her anger issues aside, she generally has good self control. On the negative side, this tends to lead to her bottling up stress that she doesn't know how to deal with. She's dependent on anti-depressants and sleeping pills that she's without now that their town has been blown away. She struggles to work with others, her will power is less than impressive, and she can be especially lazy without medicine. On top of all this, she's constantly struggling with depression and insomnia during the night.

Other: Ambidextrous, of mixed heritage but primarily Middle Eastern.

Name: Joe Stark (Most people just call him 'Jojo' though)

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Personality: Normally quite cynical, Joe is that one guy who you don't mind having in your group but not when you're talking about happy memories. If, however, you have a strong craving for sarcasm, dry humour, and black comedy, Jojo is your guy. Typically classed as your average 'funny asshole', he's pretty infamous around the town for his verbal brutality and stunning pranks. People come to him for help in retribution due to his mischievous nature and relatively high intelligence, but is otherwise left to mix with his smallish group of very close friends.

History: Jojo is one of the most normal and average people around. His childhood was uneventful, and so no personality flaws were foreseen. However his pessimistic outlook and quick wits changed their perception of him when he managed to graffiti a piece of art depicting several teachers and head students in a Roman-style orgy whilst also managing to hack the school server and send a letter of concern to every email telling them how they've been 'naughty boys and girls' and parking every single one of the senior students' cars in the gymnasium. It's quite blatant he never managed it himself, but Jojo continues to restate he worked solo. He gained a small crew of loyal jokers who he would conduct smaller prankers with until January 31st, when he would perform his 'Annual Pranking Palava!' in which a prank of enormous proportions would be performed. The school and the police could never definitively tie him and his lackeys to the event, but they always watched him closely around that time of the year.

Appearance:

Clothing:


Skills & Weaknesses: Jojo is clever and quick, however is not as honourable as others. Seeing no sense in injuring himself in order to save others, he will judge the odds on the battle to see if he most likely win. A man of strategic intelligence, Jojo would be almost entirely useless in a social situation relying on his people skills to advance.

Other: Jojo has a pet dog called Maxxy. Maxxy is Jojo's trusty companion, and has seen just about as much shit as Jojo has. A quiet dog who is quite shy, she will stick by his leg, gently rubbing against it to tell him she is still there.

Just let me know if you aren't happy with anything.
