Verthaven:
A Bloody Paradise







This story is set in the middle of the summer, and in a very peculiar universe. The same technological advancements and events have taken place. However, a strange condition has occurred that has given people God-like powers that defy the laws of science itself. Granted by a mysterious green energy that resides inside of them. These people have been around for two centuries, until they came out of the shadows nearly fifty years ago. Since then, they've became a growing part of society. Strictly regulated by the NEST organization, most of these enhanced humans are no different from the average human. They wear no capes, no cowls, they are average citizens that simply want to live their lives. They go to school, they get jobs, they have fun. And they are everywhere.

This story in particular is set in a sunny californian city called Verthaven... The Sunny city of dreams and heroes. They couldn't be anymore wrong. Called a mixture of New York, Miami, San Francisco, and Venice, this watery city is paradise to some people, the perfect summer vacation spot. They rarely note the rampant crime and sinister organizations working in the background. Now is the time where they put their plans in motion, and like dominoes, the city will be brought to its knees. This story centers around the trials and tribulations of the Metahumans of Verthaven. Their choices and involvement in what will change the city.

You can be one of these characters with superpowers. Of any background, and ability. Remember, power corrupts, but only if you let it. It is entirely up to you what you'll use your supernatural power for. Robbing banks, gaining strength, or helping the world for the better.

Choose your battles carefully, and your allies with even more care. Since all actions have consequences... Can you be sure who will follow you?



Welcome to my newest RP, Verthaven. The above should give you a good idea of what the RP is about (Much more info will come later). The basic gist of this RP is that it's a character-focused slice of life RP where people live in a beautiful, yet dangerous, coastal paradise of a city. This is a somewhat linear sandbox game, Where players are encouraged to form their own subplots, and stories - all while I work towards a larger overarching plot.

Feel free to place interest, and ask any questions. I have the OP completed, but I figured that I should get interest before I put it up.

I might be interested. Are superpowers obligatory, or can we go with Batman-style superhero?

I should have probably noted... this isn't really going to be about super heroes, and more down to Earth people with powers. More like Heroes, or Misfits, rather than DC/Marvel Comics.

...hrm...Well, if that's the case I have to say I've never really been into that genre. In fact, Heroes totally bored me.

still, though, willing to give this a shot. I need a good super RP xP

I see. I might be still interested, though I have absolutely no idea about my character.

I'm trying to decide between a wendigo-based character, an android, or a girl who fucks with inertia in her immediate vicinity.

I really love wendigos.

How would he/she be wendigo-based? Just curious, since it seems cool.

Thanks! I'm not entirely sure. I think a power centered around consumption-that never-ending hunger. Their more monstrous abilities lie dormant, but that urge to consume's always there, and the more they indulge it the more power they're able to use. Drawback being that a bloodlusted shark usually isn't the most clear-minded. Not to mention even among metas that's a pretty disturbing power. They'd have to try and keep it under wraps.

Thought about playing it from a more spiritual angle, too. Aside from just eating physical stuff, more abstract stuff. Dreams, fear, etc. Don't know how that'd work out. I'll let it simmer for a while until Lone gets his shit together puts up the OP.

That's definitely cool. I'd like to see a character like that in the role-play. It could cause for some drama, later on in the role-play.

Much appreciated. Feeling the other two as well though. This always happens, indecision over what characters to use. Ah, too many choices. I'll probably wind up flipping a bunch of coins or something.

All the coins in the world.

Also, I don't really know how Inertia would work, since it's a sub-power of Kinetic Energy Manipulation. Just a heads-up, unless you don't mind/have other plans for it.

Rude.

Jokes aside, it's interesting and I place my interest!
