The first black wolf born as a combination life form, now known simply as Half, was named Iris. She was different from every other combination because of one, small mutation: endurance. Where it was tuned down in all other wolf types, this one was given an upgrade. But it didn't go as planned. The endurance was too high, and Iris didn't fall where the others did. She stood until her bones broke, her muscles tore, and her body was all but destroyed. Somehow, she lived, and got stronger, and stronger, and stronger. Finally, at the end of the year, Iris's patience broke. She rallied the wolves and any others that would follow, and, with pack moral and inhuman comradery, forced their way out. The rush claimed more lives than could hold the facility together, so everything else in there, like it or not, was free to go. Now free about the world with powerful friends and an unstoppable leader, the pack made it widely known what was happening behind closed doors. Unable to throw a lid on this, the entity in charge, still unknown, claimed ignorance and left his/her employees to the world.
With five hundred years, Halves are still unnaccepted as human or anything close. Living areas are fenced off, cerfews are enforced with brutallity, racism is at a high not seen in the slave days between whites and blacks. Many Halves vanish without cause, and reasons are never found. Almost every human hates Halves with a passion, whether for their bodily superiority, agility, or the fact that they are simply better than them, all humans who hate them resort to violence. There have been public hangings, burnings, beatings, rapes, muggings, murders, anything and everything to bring pain to something with breath.
But there is something fighting back.
A pack of wolf types, known as the Riharians, has surfaced and turning the tables by hunting humans. The first kill was brutal by any standard, something not even those of the horror industry have ever seen. Suffice it to say that the body was spread across three blocks, and everyone in those blocks knew instantly what was happening.
A young black wolf claimed the kill, one going by the name of Stray, with the backing of sixty others. A massive operation was launced to bring them in, ending in a slaughter than resulted in the loss of the entire pack, but also the loss of half of the active Army. It was later discovered that the Riharians were decendents of Iris, all of them. It was also discovered that the purest member, Stray, was missing. Now, a year after the incident, known as Black Snow day, because it happened in december, all black wolves are labled as Riharians. Very few even exist anymore, and those that do are tortured for the location of the vanishing Stray. As before, it's one against the world. And as before, the Riharians call to bring it on.
Okay, rules:
1. I am the only Riharian, no exceptions, it is crucial to the story that it remain this way.
2. No godmodding/jacking/-oh hell, you either get this already or get out of my thread.
3. You are not limited to wolves or even Halves altogether. You may be human or Half, just make sure the story is believable.
4. The tech level is set about that of GITS, just to generalize.
5. Have fun OR BE DESTROYED...the choice is yours.
The CS:
Appearence:
Race: (If Half, type as Half/(animal combination) See mine for clarification)
Name: (No last name required, though encouraged. I have a reason behind mine)
Age: (Halves live longer, about the same as an elf from any fairy tail. They also mature early and can function as an adult, though most don't get to looking out of their teen years, at around ten years of age.)
Skills: (What kept you alive until now)
Uplink type: (Working on this idea. The choices are Digital, Fiber Optic, and Softwire. Digital is the insertion of a part, like a finger, into a port where a flash drive style thing comes out. You get the idea. Fiber Optics are the same as cyborgs in GITS. No exceptions here. Softwires require direct contact. It litterally turns the brain into a computer linked by contact to the target and works by thought process. The connection is usually weaker and takes much longer to obtain as opposed to the others (Instant) The uplinks will function as everything from ID to cash transactions.)
Racial abilities: (They MUST be possessed by the race you chose to be naturally) (May accept hybrids, but don't put faith on it)
Personality:
Biography:
Reason for siding with ___ : (Just put humans or Riharians and your reason. You don't have to be human to side with humans, or the other way around.)
And now here's me:
Appearence:
On the left.
Race: Half/Riharian
Name: Zephryn 'Stray'
Age: 18
Skills: Con man, thief, brawler, knows how to survive in almost any enviornment
Uplink type: Softwire
Racial abilities: Unstoppable endurance and stamina, naturally strong, ultimately loyal to whoever earns his loyalty and those that obey him. Never leave a Half behind.
Personallity: Hard to determine. One minute he'll be cowering scared in a corner. The next he'll jump up and rip your throat out then go on a rampage laughing like a maniac. Generally, though, he's passive to the world around him unless it specifically involves him or something sparks his interest. Also, he never sees a problem with anything he does, whether it be killing or stealing, he sees nothing wrong with it.
Biography: Zephryn was born to an unknown mother and father, raised instead at a church he was left at. Shortly after he turned eleven, Zephryn ran away from the stifling bible kissers and made his way to the nearest city. Very quickly, he learned that he had a thing for music, and began holding invite only raves. He saw, a hundred times, how cruel humans could be, specifically when they broke his raves down. So, without much regret, he got together with a few wolves like him and went to work, trying to find others, keeping some of their own safe from the law, or busting into fights to distract cops from Halves. Then the police killed one of them, and Zephryn got serious. He led the first raid and got his first kill, then made an example out of the body. From then on has been nothing but raves to fund his activities and raids against the cops.
He regrets what happened to his friends and comrades, but refuses to dwell on it, instead focusing his feelings on fighting back. Currently, he intends to build up a small force of elites with different skills and force his way into what he believes is the last remaining Half test facility, then free whatever is still held inside. Since there is a strong possibility there are Riharians, his wolf loyalty makes him never stop. A friend that never joined the raids, Zeke, is working on his own team after his brother, who did go with Zephryn regularly, died in the attack.
Reason for siding with Riharians: Isn't it obvious? Kill or convert the humans.
Sorry I took so long, here it is.
