Matt took a step back. This had escalated far too quickly for him. The horror of the virus combined with the ruthless violence of Freya and the eerie woman were too many emotions to process at once. He took advantage of the current lack of emotion to take action. He passed by the women and closed the door, leaning against it to keep it closed. The female scientist didn't seem the least bit concerned. Was she trying to be brave while being afraid of them, or did she know something that he didn't?
Well, technically, she knew a whole lot of things he didn't. Matt decided to pick a topic and start from there.
"A virus. You're going to kill us. With a virus. So you want us to stay here for fourteen days until we die? I..." He scowled. The numbness had worn off and was being rapidly replaced with anger. "I don't know what this is about, or why you think it's so funny, but I'm not about to just sit and die. As long as you're here, you might as well answer some questions. Specifically, the ones she-" Matt pointed at Freya "-just asked you. A lethal virus? Is this some kind of prank?"

Bio
Hi. I'm Matt. You could say I'm a Case of Identity...
1. The Important Stuff: Faith and salvation
I am a Christian. I believe the KJV Bible and that God is real, Jesus died for me, Jesus rose again and offered salvation to the world. Heaven is real, Hell is hot and the only escape is Christ. I accepted salvation the only way you can: by admitting I was a sinner (and I still am), believing that Jesus died for me and rose again, and calling on Him to save me. Anyone can do it anytime and be granted eternal life.
"Matt, why are you saying all of this?" you ask.
Because last time I was here, I did a crap job of establishing that and just tried to 'fit in.' I'm going to add a little more of this to my characters and to my signature, because it's the right thing to do and because there's freedom on these kinds of sites. Not to an extent that interrupts/derails the story, though. Your game, your rules.
2. The Actual Bio:
Hi guys. I'm Matthias Emmanuel Angel, I'm 24, and this is where I spend time when I'm not doing other things (church, homework, studying, video games).
///
What I like:
-Landscape Management (my major)
-Guitar (over a decade of experience and not much to show for it)
-PC Games (gave up on Xbox, no regrets)
-RPGs (I play them too often though)
-Water instead of soda (oooo look at how healthy I am)
-Google SketchUp (awesome 3D models, free download)
-The number 23 (it's the best number)
///
What I don't like:
-Profanity (especially when it's just filler in comedy)
-Lewd content and porn (and anyone bragging about it)
-Gory movies (how are they going to get butchered this time?)
-Jerks (you aren't a jerk, are you?)
-Insects (kill them all)
-Dying in video games (and forgetting to save)
///
I realize, of course, that this site doesn't have limits on profanity of lewd content. No worries. I'll work around it, and won't join up with RPs rated 18+. If you feel like it will be a problem, let me know BEFORE the RP starts.
3. Other Internet Presence:
You can find me in a couple other places.
Armor Games: MattEmAngel
Steam: club_blizzy
...and Comments here, of course.
See you in another world.
-Matt

So far all three characters are a pretty similar, especially Amie and Trish...I may switch over to Matt if we don't get any male characters with a different personality.
Matt stared awkwardly at the woman. She was almost robotic, from the unblinking eyes to the posture to the flawless white lab coat. He was still forcing himself to stay focused on reality. Half of the dialogue went completely over his head, but from what he could make out, he was in fact some kind of test subject and the other woman's name was Freya, who killed people. Neither of these facts were encouraging.
"So..." Matt began asking, pausing to avoid asking a dozen questions all at once. Slow down. Focus. What's the biggest question you have? He stood up straight and touched his head, sending another sharp pain through his skull. As a result, he ended up asking one of the more irrelevant questions possible:
"Why'd you hit me in the head?"

-Withdrawn-
Matt looked up at the camera. It wasn't moving, but it was definitely recording. The words "testing facility" came to mind, but he shook it off. Nothing good ever came from a testing facility, and he wasn't about to become a "subject."
He stepped up to the door and examined it. Completely blank with a single knob. He put his ear up to it and tapped on it. The door was wooden, but it was thick and durable. He jabbed the door with an elbow. Nothing. He looked along the side of the door opposite the knob for some trace of hinges on the other side, but it was sealed. The door was a perfect fit for the frame. Matt stopped, then, out of curiosity, knocked sharply on the door.

True. But I'm not good at playing two parts. I'd appreciate it if you could handle Elysium's dialogue when it comes to major plot points (such as the beginning here).
You're the GM, so the story progression is up to you. You play the part of the organization and whoever has locked the door and all. But you know that. I'm just making sure you aren't waiting for me to do it.

But seriously. What's going on here? I like this idea, why isn't the GM responding?
DISAPPOINTED!
DISAPPOINTED!
"Okay..." Matt replied slowly. He had been hoping for a name of some kind. All he knew now was that she might be a threat depending on who he was. Lovely.
"I...uh..." he attempted to speak, still trying to stay focused on reality. The room, the mark, the woman, the injury...it was all too much for him to process. He decided to slow down and focus on one thing at a time, and, since she had mentioned the mark, he turned to examine it in the mirror again. There was nothing remarkable about it at all. It was just a black shape. No numbers or codes or anything. It wasn't an injury, though, and it was definitely new. It must have happened while he was unconscious.
"I don't, no. I've never seen it before. What is it?" he asked is a flat voice. He hadn't really considered what the woman's part in this was, but something made him suspicious. She was far too calm to be new to this place. It didn't set well with him.
