So it's modern day, the streets are packed, the air is lousy and the government is ever watchful. As humans evolved, we hit a plateau, until the first event happened. These event's occurred all over the world over the course of a couple months. Men and women displaying super human abilities unlike anything anyone had ever seen. People were moving cars with super human strength, levitating objects with there mind, flying around the skies like a bird. These are just some examples of what some people have managed to do. This of course, frightened the government and they did what they thought was best for national security. They defied these men and women's rights as people, sent men after them and locked them away in a secret facility.
They facilities location is only known to a select group people, it's existence was of course never disclosed to the public. They had their best engineers cook up a way to interrupt the abilities within these people. People labeled Homo Evoludas, but more commonly known as Evols. Several months into imprisonment and still, no one truly understands how they managed to inhibit their powers. Some speculate it has something to do with electrical signals and impulses to the brain, others think it's a radioactive element stored inside that mess with their powers. The only thing the prisoners know, that luckily the prison staff don't. Is that the devices around their wrist's are slowly weakening. In time, with their powers and combined efforts, they dream of escaping the hell hole the government named Purgatory.
The only man they've ever met, the only one to not wear tactical gear and a mask. The warden, Mr Todd. His first name was never given and the guards always address him the same way. He is supremely confident in everything he does, which makes him that much more pretentious.
Every day, they reside in their clear cells until the time comes for them to be allowed out for chow, brief time to mingle in a large open area. The entire area is covered by cat walks with roaming guards, their shift's change at random times. There's no window's or clocks so they lose all track of time. Purgatory does have a library but hardly any of the inmates are allowed in it, the recreation available to them appears to be meant for children. Board games, crappy plastic musical instruments, all junk really but when you have nothing else. It's a luxury to them.
Now everyone is coping with what they may have done in the past, dealing with the pressures of being locked away for something no one really understands. Trying to handle the harsh life of prison while retaining some sanity. The important thing to know is, that freedom may have been taken away from them, but escape is a real possibility if everyone works together. Escape Purgatory if you can.

Name: Joshua Stone
Alias: Stone
Age: 23
Appearance:
Not my art, just using the picture. This is Josh back before capture, when we actively fought
Josh has ripped the sleeves off of his top and occasionally wraps the pant legs up to be shorts.
Personality: Josh is a nice enough guy, he's not a bully, doesn't go out of his way to be a jerk. This of course isn't to be confused with weakness, he loves a challenge. He isn't afraid to take on the big guy. He has a thick skin from his up bringing, he takes a bit to trust others but once he does. He has their back until the end.
History: Josh grew up in a shady part of town, his parents were poor and his younger sister was very ill. He got picked on a lot because he came from such poverty and he always stuck up for his family, especially his sister which caused him to get into a lot of fights. This led to him learning how to protect himself, which naturally led to him wanting to really break people down. He started training in Mixed Martial Arts at a young age, around 10. Once he had stopped the bullying, he focused his efforts more to his schooling, his parents bright idea. He picked up the engineering side of his school work, anything that could relate to it, he caught on for some reason. It just stuck out to him and when he realized that he could make good money in that field, he worked really hard to learn everything he could and even earned a grant from the county to go to college.
At the age of 18, on the day of his graduation, his sister passed away. So enraged by this, he manifested his power for the first time and accidentally ripped a gaping whole in the earth that nearly sank their house. Josh worked from there to hone his skills in the privacy of their back yard. He had worked up a good level of control over the following years, keeping his power a secret from the world. Now ever since his sister's passing, he's been protective of women ever since. On this day, just a few months after his 22nd birthday, he saw several men trying to mug a woman that resembled his sister, close enough to have been a twin. He lost control, madly fought the men and let the woman escape, then caused an earthquake that buried the men and a 3 block radius. This was the event that couldn't go unnoticed, the government came for him the following day. They found him, shot him with tranquilizer darts and he awoke in a clear cell by himself.
Skills: -Josh grew up in a rough neighborhood so he learned how to fight which lead to an obsession with winning fights so he learned and still practices MMA.
