Name Redacted — Soviet Union 2775
Overall Physical Profile Soviet Union 2775 was an individual turned into a Genesis Project at the age of thirty-three years old when he was considered to be in “Peak” physical condition. His body structure resembles that of “super soldiers” and stands at six foot nine inches and weighs roughly two-hundred and sixty-five pounds. He has broad shoulders that blend into a smaller waist. The man is a human mountain when it comes to overall muscle and strength.

There are a ton of prominent marks on SU 2775’s body, he is littered with scars with two prominent gunshot wounds — one on his upper left shoulder and the other on the lower inner part of his right thigh. He has slash scars, ground cut wounds, prominent ones, being on his right waist area, right upper arm, his neck, and the mid-left part of his back.

His brand can be found starting in the middle of his shoulders and running down his spine. His brand reads “СУ 2775 Альфа 1933”

Background

In 1908, the USSR was gathering unnamed children off from the streets for experimental government projects. After being captured off the streets, he was marked by the government at the time by an inner wrist tattoo. This was the beginning of his journey. At the age of eight years old, he would be starting his training to become a super soldier for the government of the time.

Throughout the years, they rigorously trained him and other children to be their “perfect” human soldiers. They did pre-testing and other experiments on each individual in his unit. Constantly being trained and experimented on was killing his psyche — it was killing everyones. They became test subjects and numbers without being anything more.

Before the Genesis Project started on him, USSR V was forced into WW1 at the age of fourteen years old. By this time, he was a trained fighter and up to par with lower specialized units in the military.

In 1933, right before WW2 began, Project Genesis was started on him. It was started on his whole group of comrades. This was a mass murder in the basic sense. Every single individual was pronounced dead and pushed into a body pile to be dealt with. USSR V woke up in the pile of dead bodies in extreme pain and a sense of overwhelming loss. It felt like he was in an internal void and that he was nothing at the same time. Peaceful to a point and horrifying at the same time.

Once he was pronounced alive after being considered dead for so long, he was marked as SU 2775. This was when the neurological issues and his ability to connect to the neurolinks and other neuro-abilities that project Genesis supplied to him was faulty — they caused him seizures, he had lack of control in connecting and disconnecting from it, and so on. The increased super soldier abilities were at par and where the government wanted them but the neurological damage that he suffered and will continue to suffer through might never find a cure.

They forced him into WW2 and other wars after that. Top secret missions and more. He was a working dog for them. This was his life up until the fall.

Once the fall happened, realization set in, and he was able to take control of himself. No one in his testing facility escaped alive. SU 2775 went on a murderous and revengeful rampage on every single living soul in the buildings he had been contained in for years. He was free.

He was already taking pre-college courses to follow in their footsteps.

After the Fall of society, his only mission was to help keep his family alive and make sure they all got to point B from point A, safely. He feels like he failed his parents along with his siblings because they all perished. He is currently wandering without hope.

Background

Roman spent the first seven years of his life in Russia with his immediate and extended family. At this time, he had two older siblings, a younger sibling, and his parents as his family. His parents ended up obtaining citizenship in America where they moved to Boston, Massachusetts where both of his parents could start work.

They only lived in Boston, Massachusetts for roughly a year before moving to Seattle, Washington.

It wasn’t a very long time until they moved again, Seattle, Washington to Atlanta, Georgia.

Atlanta, Georgia to Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Colorado Springs, Colorado to San Antonio, Texas.

Over roughly six years, they moved constantly, until about eight months before the Fall of society, they were planning to establish themselves in Portland, Oregon. Everything seemed wonderful except for what was going on in the world — tension was high, school was a medical field experimental prison setup, and distancing from everyone was normal. Most of his classes were online, so he didn’t attend physical school for the most part which sucked in his mind — being the social kid he was. They still had outdoor sports so he was big into swimming and cross country.

Everything turned into chaos when the Fall of Society hit in 2020, Roman was only thirteen years old. During the initial fall, the family lost their mother and their youngest sibling. Emotions were high and loneliness was rampant in the sense of loss — a single father with six children.

Over the past four years during the fall, Roman continued to watch his siblings get sick, pass on to the next life for one or another reason, or become infected with the virus. By the end of it, it was Roman and his older brother. They had no clue what to do and his older brother gave up, practically, and stopped trying as hard.

Sadly, only a week ago, he got to watch his last family member turn to the virus. He feels like it is all his fault because if he was being more careful, they wouldn’t have been in the situation that they found themselves in, and his brother would still be here today or at least he believes that. Survivors' guilt.

The Archipelago Universe

The Archipelago Universe is a diverse, expansive, and complex setting that is similar to the depths of our world out of writing. From the miniscule components to the most established figures — there is freedom to write as you please in this setting. Remember that actions do have consequences. One has to agree for their character to die or be overruled by world owner discretion.

Archipelago is a world of a western and eastern continent, three major islands, and eleven smaller land masses completely surrounded by water. These regions have similarities and differences depending on which ones you choose to write in and visit.

Aspects of our world apply to this one, to an extent, but the same functions tend to apply except there is magic in this universe along with manifestations. The human race in this universe has subclasses based on magic. An average human contains at least some level of magic even if they are not able to use it. Education, bloodlines, years of experience, and many other options can broaden a character’s magical abilities beyond the imagination.

Pure bloodlines which are referred to as the “Pure ones” are families that have been in rule or power of a country or territory for generations. These individuals tend to be stronger in magic than others unless their bloodline was not a magic-user one. They tend to have specific abilities that cannot be found outside of the family tree.

Individuals or families that have recently come into power, less than five generations, are referred to as “Refreshers” since their territory is under newer rule or currently going through a change in power. They do not have the foundational magic that the pure ones have and they do not have specific abilities to only their family tree.

A manifestation is the literal manifestation of an individual's soul that you and others can interact with. The manifestation appears in the form of any kind of animal and is able to verbally communicate by words. They do not hold any magical abilities in the sense of spellcasting or so on. If someone’s manifestation dies, the individual dies, and it is extremely frowned upon to physically interact with someone else’s manifestation.

If someone goes around killing people, especially by manifestation, they are considered to be committing the worst crime imaginable. The majority of countries are all in agreement with eradicating individuals who harmfully touch others' manifestations or kill people in this way.

The countries that do not put these individuals to death are: The Duchy of Mavesland, Sagria, the Saberia Territories, and Weil.

The countries that put people to death for such a crime even in times of self-defense are: The Mardesia Empire and Baland.

Note: Manifestations appear quickly after birth or take up to the age of eight years old. Individuals that do not have their soul physically manifestate are extremely rare and they are considered dangerous. There are plenty of taboo views and superstitions around these individuals.

Magic subclasses

These are currently being worked on.

The foundation of this setting is to bring a complex and deep experience to each and every writer that is immersed into this universe. It will be formatted to a “sandbox” type of setting where people are given leeway. There are consequences. Characters can die in this setting by the character owner’s approval or world owner discretion. In the sense of any world with populations and structured communities, there are rules, and actions against those rules can have consequences.

Understanding the magic concept of this world is quite simple, in reference, do your best to keep a connection to realism. Answer all the what-ifs about the ability you are trying to introduce into this world. Every character sheet has to have the magical abilities that can be used by the character. A character sheet can always be updated because characters can learn more or advance through the magic they already know — grasping new abilities into their rosters. Each new ability to be added to the roster needs to be approved by a world owner.

What is encouraged? Socialization and connection is highly encouraged for this setting, inside and outside of character, so a character can be properly immersed. This is not a requirement, characters can be fully written with barely any communication outside of the universe’s setting — the more prominent you want to be. The more active you might need to be out of character.

Do not be shy about asking anyone to make a character that is a part of something! Are you interested in having a sibling or cousin to the family in control of the kingdom? Ask about it. If two individuals cannot agree on something, the world owner(s) will always be there to help. Are you not looking for a major role but want to interact? See if someone wants to “double up” with you and someone can write the human and the other can write the human’s manifestation. The possibilities can be endless on flexibility.

What is being sought out character-wise for this roleplay? Anything. Anyone. Any level of writer is welcome to join and put their two cents into the world. Remember to be true to your abilities — this only comes into play if you want a more prominent role such as being a part of a family in control or a character that might cause events to uproar. All of this is discussable and debatable.

When you are making a character, you technically have to make two — your human character and their manifestation [lifeforce] that is an animal. As stated above, two writers can share these to have more diverse interaction, if desired.

What is allowed for this role-play when it comes to characters? Almost anything. There are limits that are known and undiscovered. We recommend that you write a character in the way you enjoy. They do not have to be prominent in the world to interact and do things. Characters who are recently born to the age of six-years-old are highly encouraged to be NPCs/side characters, not main ones. Remember that children are children. They will not have the same abilities, proficiencies, or communication skills as adults.

I'm giving everyone I'm currently role-playing with a heads up that my posts may become somewhat erratic for the near future due to personal shit. I'm still bopping around and will do my best to post as I find time and precious motivation.

I will begin working on my next post here once I've finished doing the rounds of keeping everyone in the loop.

Sorry for any inconvenience & Thanks for understanding!

@Lu

DO not worry about it! We understand that out of roleplay life takes priority. I hope everything starts going better for you and calming down!

The one thing that was highly recurring in his life was rejection. He was familiar with it from birth to now. Being a part of a large family had daily little rejections in it. Being a son of a merchant and practicing the family skills and business since he was barely double digits had a paramount of rejection in it. Having a mischievous, charismatic, and desire for intimacy or the desire to feel wanted and needed even for a night — that always had an equation for rejection. Rejection, no matter what it was, could always be disheartening though he realized as a young child that it was an occurrence no one could escape from; not even the kings and queens of the world.

A gentle frown appeared on his face, it was subtle, I always have too much on my mind, he thought while her words swirled in his mind. It caused his body to feel a little colder and ache slightly. If that was a requirement, to have little on your mind, Sunni knew he would never succeed in whatever this was. “I understand,” Was something that came out without much thought to it. Did she have to keep emphasizing? Maybe he didn’t make it clear that he understood what was between the lines?

Her words seemed to make his presence a little brighter though his body language still seemed defensive. As if he wasn’t getting his hopes up at all. Is she not rejecting me? He was starting to feel confused about this whole interaction. No, do not think like that. Her prior words were rejections. Elara is just being nice. The man reminded himself as his amber eyes glanced over to read her facial expression.

Then she brought up work again and he nodded in understanding — I wouldn’t want to neglect my duties. Sunni found himself thinking for a moment, because he didn’t know how to respond to her words. Not at first. “Let’s focus on what needs to be done for Dawnhaven then,” Was that the right thing to say? He had no clue. She seemed more into her work than not which he understood. “It’s not like it’ll build itself or anything,” His tone was playful and he was trying to joke. A faint smile appeared on his expression.

Sunni was allowing his mind to run wild as they walked and nothing was said between them. There were so many things on his mind, constantly, and so many things to do that it felt like a never ending void. A dark abyss that he was falling into forever and ever. In his mind, there was always going to be work and something new to do. That solidified his acceptance to Elara being nice. She would always be busy as well. They would never have any time for each other and it was quite selfish of him to be having a crush on someone that he didn’t know along with everything that needed to be done. He couldn’t probably focus his energy towards someone while trying to do everything he’s been doing or trying to support his best friend and his marriage. His thoughts continued to get darker and he hated himself for that.

The man shrugged his shoulders at her words, “That’s what happens in a community. You look out for each other,” He was trying to downplay his own actions to that of being general courtesy. Something that was nice and nothing more. In his mind, it was nothing more than something that should happen. With everything going on in Dawnhaven and blight born being accepted left and right, plus the being in the middle of nowhere along with the beasts of the world — looking out for each other was the least that someone else could do.

“It was pleasant,” he smiled with his words as they were spoken evenly. The man thought about her other statements and nodded his head in consideration. “There is always time to talk, though you are right. We should focus on the priorities at hand. I’m sorry for distracting you from the princess,” Sunni stated without any negativity but understanding. Understanding that Elara was someone that was proud of her work and priorities. Sunni decided to smile a little more, “I hope you have a good day,” With those words. He left her near the cabin and went towards his own tasks — going to work on that roof alone to at least get it done.
