I'm not going to follow any strict expectations but I would like a decent paragraph (preferably two) as a minimum. I understand that sometimes there isn't much one can write about in certain circumstances so as long as the quality is maintained and something actually happens in your post/it had purpose, I'm quite relaxed about it all.
That was a bit of a ramble but I hope that answered your question!

(Trigger warning: this post involves kidnapping)
Below is a narrative introduction but first a summary! As the title suggests this is a RP about people with powers/special abilities. These may vary from regenerative abilities through to telekinesis. It is set in the modern day and the characters will be high school/college age (for simplicity's sake: between the ages of 16 and 18). It WILL be a fairly grim tale (at least, to start with) and everyone's characters will start out weak and slowly grow in strength as the RP progresses. Example: Even if your power is to control gravity at the beginning this will mostly consist of making something already falling fall a tiny, tiny bit faster.
This is a reboot/rewrite of a successful RP from Old Guild and had several parts but I'm hoping to have a new cast with new characters and so a new story will unfold (although I am of course happy for returning players to use their previous characters).
Children across the world are discovering that they are special, gifted with powers. Their abilities are fledgling, so weak that barely even their users know of them. As time goes by, they begin to understand their abilities a little better and practice their use. Or maybe they are too scared and simply refuse to use them, hoping they will just disappear, but end up using them by accident as they lack control. Gossip flies around schools about children who have had powers disappearing. Some of the rumours say they have been relocated or hired by special government agents for training, others are far less kind to the disappeared. You decided to keep your power a secret, either from everyone or from all but your closest friends or family, sure that they can be trusted.
But someone else must have found out and you have been kidnapped. Taken in the bright of day or the dead of night; maybe from your parents' home or in the middle of class you were powerless to stop it and everyone stood by and let it happen. The men and women came dressed in matching suits, almost clones of one another and they moved with a calm sense of purpose. Some hold you down whilst another prepares a syringe or a pill or perhaps they have been forced to stun you using a powerful taser. What is clear is that someone has found out your secret and they are very interested in it.
You wake up lying on a bed in an unfamiliar room. Your senses feel numb and your body impossibly heavy, even opening your eyes is a formidable effort. You managed to make out some of the room which is furnished in a modern, stylish fashion as if it were a hotel room. There are a couple of tub chairs around a low coffee table, a few generic magazines stacked on top of it, and a television fitted into the wall opposite the chairs. There is also a desk with another chair next to a wardrobe and a mirror.
There is no noise besides that which you yourself make. There are two doors to the room, one is locked and the other leads to an ensuite bathroom. Some panels on the wall opposite the door emit a light that feels natural but clearly isn't. As you acclimate to your surroundings, a click sounds from the previously locked door, inviting you to explore beyond your room.
Interest Check
Name:
Age: 16-18, a date of birth would be ideal. This will be set modern day, we'll say 7th November 2015 as the start date
Gender:
Sexuality:
Appearance: Picture/Photo/Description or a mix, I'm not picky as long as you're happy it describes your character as you want it to!
History: obviously they won't have much here beyond being at school but some details about their family, social status at school etc would be nice.
Power: the all important part! Best to be general here to start with, for example telekinesis, control of electricity, super strength etc. We can go into more detail as powers develop and the characters come to understand their powers a little better. Remember that they will start off very weak, almost the point they barely noticed they had a power at all and it will slowly develop as time goes on.
Please add in any other details you feel are relevant/necessary for your character.
If you have questions feel free PM me or post in the thread. Please post your CS (or PM me) so I can give my (largely symbolic) thumbs up before posting it under characters.
Oh, and rules...
The usual things. No over powered characters (unless I give permission!), no abuse in the IC or the OOC, be nice to one and another and if you're going to be really nice to one another then fade to black and take it to PMs. That said I'd like to think we're all fairly sensible here and I'm pretty chill about most things.
Please keep random chatter out of the OOC, there's a Skype group for us all (although I appreciate not everyone may want to participate there). If we can keep the OOC to things mostly relevant to the RP that'd be awesome, ta.
Note/Trigger Warnings: This WILL be a grim RP involving experimentation on younger people with a lot of long-term suffering and mental issues resulting from that. There will be violence, I'm sure of several different types, so please bear that in mind should you wish to join.

@Vocab Entirely up to you. If you want to just check some things with me then feel free to PM me, otherwise I'd say there's no harm waiting for the OOC. I'll have it up soon, seeing as it's mostly a copy and paste job!
Forgive the double post but here is the Character Sheet (just the minimum, you can add more details should you wish to!):

@Airalin Not this time!
Glad to see a lot of interest. I'll get a CS and OOC up soon so we can start getting ready. I hope to start the IC in a couple of days, or earlier if everyone is ready before then.

Hey! I do indeed remember, although I must be honest and say I don't remember whose characters were whose way back then!
Good to have you on board.
