OOC's up, let's get it! Still taking more interest, so anyone else feel free to join & let's make this epic!


Invincible

From the dawn of time, mankind has had many stories of those who were superior to regular humans. These beings have been called many thing, the Olympian Gods, the Asgardians, angels, demons, mythical creatures such as vampires & werewolves, and many other names. Long believed to be nothing more then legends & myths throughout human history. But, what if all of these various stories had some truth to them? Thus the story of Invincible is born.

The setting is the "Real" world in the year 2019. In January the entire earth was ensnared in a bright light, an ear shattering noise was heard across the planet, seven million people were instantly vaporized, fires started in several places across the planet, and the whole world was plunged into a week long blackout. The world's power was instantly returned, the total death poll no more then 15 million including those vaporized society recovered. A week later without notice the entire earth was plunged in darkness for nearly 12 hours, and three million of the seven million initially disintegrated reappears on the earth.

The three million who returned have no memory of being vaporized & their month away from earth. However all of them have been imbued with superhuman abilities, powers based on their deepest subconscious desires & wants. The cause of the incident was a multi-national secret government experiment attempting to re-engineer technology from a space-ship recovered from humans from a parallel dimension. The idea is these humans from the parallel earth were planning to invade the earth, but their own initial fleet sent to our earth was disintegrated, and only one shape safely made it to our planet. The government's tampering with the ship activated a technology that causes accelerated evolution in humans, and the world around them.

Premise
People can play as regular humans and/or those dubbed as "The Invincible". Some who returned manifested their powers right away, some are just now discovering them, and their are others whose powers remain dormant. The storyline revolves around how those with superhuman powers affect the real world, as well as the aftermath of "The Incidents". The Government coalition responsible for the incident have formed a secretive multi-national paramilitary agency known as Legion to capture & kill those empowered. Also people with superhuman abilities have become public knowledge in the past month of the RP.

Rules:
1. Fairness, want everyone to be fair and remember this is a story powers can grow over the story.
2. You can have as many characters as you can keep up with.
3. Stay as active as your life allows you to, and if you foresee an extended duration of unavailability try to free up any plots/characters you have interactions with.
4. Minimum post length at least one to two paragraphs
5. Set in the "Real" world so keep that in mind, this not Marvel or DC comics.
6. Powers are first come first serve, a power can be reserved if you PM me, and let me know. :) I'll keep a record of reserved powers, as a result of this it's advisable to ask and see if a power is available. Duplicate powers are allowed if the original person who picked the power doesn't mind, but try to have a creative difference for how you use the power.
7. Due to the nature of how they got their powers, no characters under 14 have powers.
8. Have Fun!

Background: Kalep Jackson's entire life he's always felt like the entire universe was working against him at every corner to keep success out his grasp. He was born into a lower middle class family in Chicago, Illinois. His father Bryson Jackson worked at the post office, and his mother Angela Jackson was a private practice therapist. Growing up with his sister Carol, his childhood was fairly alright. When he was five his parents moved to Atlanta, Georgia as his mother was given a job paying 30,000 more a year. With his parents making good money, he was able to focus on his academics, finding out early on that he didn't have a future in the NFL or NBA. By the time he was in middle school his mother's firm was closed due to a massive multi million dollar malpractice suit, and so the family had to live on their father's income for almost a year.

Over the next year he discovered many different things including marijuana, alcohol, & women. Thus, the downward spiral of his life started. In the midst of his freshmen year in college, his father became unemployed which lead to them loosing their house in Miami. He got involved with selling drugs with one of his friends Jace, and was able to support himself so his parents & sister could rely on unemployment. He cruised through the rest of school and managed to save up over 50,000 from selling marijuana & eventually cocaine. By the time he graduated both his parents had managed to find work again, and he decided to abandon his drug dealing career. He went off to college to pursue a degree in business management, although without his parents support he slipped back into his old habits a few months later. He ended up starting a semi-succesful T-shirt business with his college room mate Darry Fuller.

In the end it was meeting his future wife Tasha Moore which finally got him to straw away from selling drugs. The clothing business failed, but he had enough money to finish his bachelor's degree without too much financial headache. After college his relationship with Tasha grew more serious, and still having a knack for business he went to law school to pursue a degree in corporate law. He settled into a high paying internship, but reuniting with his old friend Jace Parker from high school got him hip to the hood again. Although now Jace was into music, and was making some waves with his career. Having been a fan of music his whole life, it wasn't long before he was in the studio as well. His music did fairly well, but like every other venture he tried it went to nothing. Luckily he remained in law school, graduated, and started working in corporate law. He got married to Tasha, who'd also been in law school & was now working as a criminal defense attorney. The first two years of their marriage were wonderful, and he had his first daughter Iyana Jackson.

In the end, life caught up with him again. A couple bad business deals put him in the hot water, and he developed a problem with drinking. He ended up getting temporarily disbarred for a year, and slipped into depression. He lied to Tasha for months never telling her he was disbarred, and his drinking was worse. In a desperate attempt to save his finances, he ended up wasting his savings of 15 grand on both trying to revive his failed music career, & the stock market. In the end his marriage crumbled, and Tasha left with Iyana. Seeking out help from Jace, he ended up getting employed at a car dealership, however because he wasn't selling enough cars to pay his mortage alone without Tasha he went back into selling drugs. A month after he was arrested for felony posession of marijuana & percocet with intent to distribute. The bulk of the money he'd made on this last run selling drugs went to legal fee's and he lost his house. He was forced to move in with his sister Carol, who was now working as a realtor and just when it seemed it couldn't get ANY worst "The Incident" occurred. He was vaporized right in front of his sister, but it seemed the universe had other plans for him. He reappeared back in Chicago a week later with no memory of "The Incident" and ended up reuniting with his family. Over the next few months he grew more depressed, and it only worsened when he began hearing people's thoughts including Tasha's the last thing he wanted. Knowing how the world felt about people with powers, he ended up getting extremely drunk and began driving to the woods with suicidal thoughts filling his mind. He lost control of the vehicle, and it flipped but another aspect of his newfound powers manifested and he was able to move the vehicle with nothing more then his mind to safety. It's been two weeks since then, and he hasn't told a single soul about any form of his powers. Part of him is hoping this is all one big nightmare from an acid trip gone wrong, "The Incident", the pending felony case, being disbarred, loosing his family & house. Hennesy's being consumed daily, and not even the manifestation of superhuman abilities is helping. Across the United States, especially in Atlanta it seems super-humans are the new group to hate. After all...the first month people began manifesting powers, some high school kid murdered over 100 kids at his high school by sucking the oxygen right out the school. With all hope lost, he's just looking for answers, and maybe these new powers might be the answer to this bullshit he calls life.
Haha, glad for the interest! The OOC will be up soon.
I must say, I'm interested, though you should delete the second interest check before people get confused.


How do i delete it?
Accident.
After typing all that out, realized that was kinda long for the premise.

Summary
--The story is placed in the "real" world with some obvious differences. Massive light engulfs the planet, seven million are vaporized, moderately powerful fires across the planet, and a week long blackout. Power is restored to the world on the eigth day, and a week from then three million of the seven vaporized return to the earth.

--The vaporized that returned have been granted superhuman powers, each individual's power is based off of their subconscious desires & wants. So a super nosy person might have gained the power to read minds, a person who feels bound to their surroundings might have gained the power of flight, etc.

--The cause of the incident was caused by a multi-national government experiment on futuristic technology recovered from an attempted invasion from a Parallel Earth, similar to our own with an altered history. Said organization has formed an international secret military coalition known as "Legion" to hunt down, capture, kill & possibly recruit the superhumans. A few people's powers manifested shortly after the returned, others manifested over the three months, and SEVERAL have powers that are still dormant.

--Storyline focuses on the world recovering, dealing with super-human powers, The Legion attempting to move in the shadows, and fix this situation, and also the looming threat of the parallel human earth actually managing a successful invasion of earth.
