Thread Status: Closed -- But if you're just itching to get into Dark Asylum please PM me a character sheet and I will see what I can do.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>

Time Placement: 2012

Plot:

After a nuclear bomb is dropped on America and the youth of the country have been genetically changed -- different things start happening to them as the course of nature should be. The bomb hasn't had an affect on people who were -13 and 20+ and this is surprising to most. It seemed that the ones who were affected by the bomb were only the ones who were going through puberty and the changes of life. The land is being rebuilt from its once barren wasteland like state after the bombing and in doing so the government is seizing any youth who is considered "mentally insane" or a threat. All of the youth that have been seized are taken to the Dark Asylum -- a "safe haven" for those who have been changed by the bomb. At Dark Asylum the doctors and nurses are supposed to be trying to help these poor souls become the normal people they once were. But what is really happening here shocks the patients [or prisoners]. The ones who pass the doctors tests and are deemed with great strengths are used to help aid the government in getting back at the terrorists who bombed America. Those who are not deemed worthy enough to be part of the governments military plans are "filed away" -- the staff of the asylum tells the youth that being filed away isn't so bad... you're relocated to a more sophisticated facility where your genetic behaviors can be better assessed. But is being filed away just that? Relocation? Or is it something more? On top of all of the genetic changes from the bomb teens are trying to deal with everyday life and learning how to process their new found abilities. With the outside world not understanding their situation and the new inside world wanting to either use or harm them -- how will they ever make it out alive?

[[I realize that this is a little vague but I want it to be interchangeable and be able to be molded into a story and plot more suitable for the characters.]]

"Race" - Species/Special Abilities:

- There are only three species:
- Human [Needs to be most common]
- Shape shifter
- Undead

- Special abilities can be pretty much whatever you want... from swiftness, stretching, stealth, flying, mind reading, etc. [[Think X-men only different.]]
*If you are a shape shifter you get no special abilities because you will be able to take on the special abilities of who ever you're shape shifting into.
* If you're undead you will only have one ability because you're more difficult to "file away" and or test on. [By the way, undead are not zombies and can not be vampires they look like regular people only they no longer need air or their heart to live. So, you can take that however you'd like.]
*Remember that special abilities and species can make or break your character depending on your doctors and nurses! [By the way, all doctors and nurses are NPC's made up by you so you get to decide the path of getting filed away, become a soldier, or try and escape!]
*Try not to make a whole bunch of useless NPC's -- yes there are guards and what not but don't make a gang of fifty coming after you. Two or three is fine... and believe it or not, you probably won't be able to just hit them and kill them. You're still coming to terms with your powers. So, keep it realistic in a non-realistic type setting.

- You are only able to have two special abilities [[They should probably go hand in hand -- such as swift and stealthy, flying and super strength, etc.]]

- Doctors and nurses are trying to learn about you and your changes so you can make your character as willing to give information or as stubborn as you'd like. [Just try and remember that if your character is not willing to give information that this is going to make the staff angry -- so you'll probably need to escape or be filed away! Oh noes!]

Ages: 13 - 19 only.
*Age note: If your character is 13 -- believe me, they're probably not going to be experimenting with the opposite sex much... so again, keep it realistic and PG-13 [no matter what the age!]

Game Notes:

This is how Dark Asylum appears on the outside.


Inside.


- Everyone has their own rooms! Everyone's room number will be given to you at orientation! [I will announce orientation and where it will be held.]

- There are specific times in the asylum [The mandatory times -- but don't think that just because it's an established time that you can't skip it ;D]:
- Wake up; 6:00am
- Breakfast; 7:00am - Mandatory [Between wake up and breakfast you are able to shower if you'd like.]
- Study Hall; 8:30am - 10:30am - Mandatory
- Lunch; Noon - Mandatory
- Dinner; 5pm - Mandatory
- Lights Out; 9pm - Mandatory
- Friday is Group; 6pm - 7:30pm - Mandatory
[Usually within my posts there will be front desk announcements. Unless it is a scheduled meeting between another patient and their doctor.]

* No one is allowed to go off of the asylum grounds for "security measures" and "precautions".

*You can be pulled out of your daily routine at any moment by your doctors and shrinks. This is something that is to your choosing but within a weeks period you should go and see them at least three times.

- There is a music room, art room, t.v room, commons room [With games, puzzles, etc.], smoking area [to those who are 16+] in the court yard, work out room, and a gym for those groups who would like to play a game or two [Any time when you are in the gym you are being recorded on tape! So remember that if you don't want your abilities known!]

**If you have any ideas or suggestions please send me a pm and I will think it over and see how I can put it into play.

Character Sheet: [Please post this as a reply to this thread. Thank you.]

Name:
Age:
Race: [Human, Shape shifter, or Undead]
Appearance: [You may post a picture if you'd like -- but also try and put details so that we can see your writing style also.]
Abilities:
Has your character grasped their abilities yet? [Yes, No, and if so -- how did they learn them so quickly? If not... please, do not make your character seem as though their ability usage is flawless IC -- everyone makes mistakes ;D ]
Background: [Tell us a little bit about your past. Are you a sibling? Where are your parents? Do you remember what all happened since you got your abilities? Do you like your abilities? Etc.]
Personality: [Is your character a dark person? Maybe he's weird? Is she the jealous type who wants all attention on her?]

* Keep personalities in mind while creating the abilities -- it should determine whether your character is going to be a hero or villain. And by this I mean -- your character is not opposed to teaming up with the staff and infiltrating the other patients plots for escape

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>

Alright, Sorry that was so long but the information is needed! I just hope everyone has read the whole thing. If not, then I will be super angry [and don't think I won't find out].

Also, I have the right to edit and change this post whenever I wish or feel as though it would better the game.

Okay, see you in character!

Name >> Isabella Rose Darwin
Goes By >> Izzy, Bella
Age >> 18
Race >> Shape Shifter
Appearance >>
Bella's eyes are a piercing blue in colour, revealing nothing of her true emotions. Her light blonde hair is long, reaching to the small of her back, and frames a porcelain face messily. Full, rose pink lips curl most often into a taunting smirk, sometimes revealing straight white teeth. Her nose is slightly crooked from where it was broken by another one of the girls in the Asylum [now gone], who provoked Bella to attack her.
A birth mark can be found on her left inner thigh, taking on no particular shape. She stands at around 5'7", weighing in at roughly 59kg. She has the build of her dancer - not that she dances - and takes after her mother mostly.

Abilities >>
Bella's grasp on her abilities is vague, though her understanding of them is growing stronger. Confused as to whether or not she should let the staff of the Asylum know about the true extent she believes she can reach, she for now keeps them in the dark. She has, however, shifted shape completely only once. That is how she was placed in the Asylum.
Background >>
Not much is known about Bella's past. Her biological father left her Mother, Rose, when Rose cheated - Bella was only five. The only contact that Bella has ever had with her father is a birthday and Christmas card each year - she believes that he has started a new life, new family. The man that Rose cheated on Mark [Bella's father] with, Joe, soon became Bella's step father.
A few years passed, Bella went to school like everyone else, and lived a normal life like any other kid. However, when she was seven, Joe began to physically abuse her.
Not many know even this, and all that she has revealed is that the hitting and such continued for eight years. When she was 15, Bella had finally had enough and moved in with her Aunt. Her mother visited her for a time, but soon those visits became almost non-existent. Those that do know of the physical abuse Bella has received has each wondered if she has been sexually abused as well, but have never asked. Nor have they suggested counseling, as they know Bella's answer would be a frank and downright NO.
Two months after her 18th birthday, Bella's abilities became known when she shifted into the form of a young girl, possibly around seven years of age - this was in the presence of her Aunt, who was typically frightened and shocked as she is very against anything that she cannot grasp and that defies her logic. The young girl Bella transformed into was in fact a younger version of herself, occurring when she was frightened and upset having been chased home by a group of drunks.
Personality >>
Bella is a withdrawn, dark humoured girl. Often it seems she barely has a grip on her sanity - if she even has any. Speaking only a few words when spoken to, and saying most when throwing an insult or contradicting the words of someone. She tells no one nothing, and appears to be a confident, if only bitchy, different and somewhat depressed girl. However, this is mostly due to her many insecurities and trust issues.
Other >> She has a secret obsession - Country & classical music


I'll elaborate when I get home... Going into town ^^

Name: Joseph
Age: 16
Race: Human
Appearance: Joseph is a typical teenager that likes to dress in black. He has semi-long bright blonde hair that he refuses to cut and green eyes. His almost immaculate face has a diagonal scar going across his cheek, which he doesn't like to talk about.
Abilities: Joseph has the ability to move very fast, faster than a normal human eye can see. Joseph has grasped his abilities somewhat but still has to work on them. He is also able to walk on almost anything because of his speed.
Background: Joseph grew up with just his father, who was a newspaper writer that was often critical of the government. His mother had died when he was very young so as long as he could remember it was just him and his dad. When the bombs dropped, Joseph was with his dad in the newspaper building. Only Joseph managed to survive the radiation that affected everyone in the building. Soon afterwards, he was caught by the government when he was still trying to figure out his abilities. He likes his abilities but sees them as a poor substitute for his father and freedom.
Personality: Joseph is often critical of those in power, a trait inherited from his dad. He sometimes hides it when he chooses. He is kind, however, and is at times lighthearted, but can be serious.

Name: Jessica 'Jess' Lockheart
Age: 16
Race: Human
Appearance:
She's 5.4' 1/2 and weighs 124. Jessica is the kind of girl who wears little make up and wears what she likes one day she'll be in baggy Jeans, tank top and half jacket, The next she'll be in a skirt and layered tank. She'll basically wear any thing but she is never without her choker
Abilities: She is able manipulate water and turn it in to ice but she has little control over it (Kind of think Bobby’s power from X-men)
Background: Jessica has 3 brothers two are twins who are 4 years older then her and the other is 5 years older then her they love her dearly and was always protective of her, her mom died when Jessica was 5 in a car crash their was a thunder storm that night so she is terrified of storms thanks to that night. Her Dad has raised her and her 3 brothers since then. Luckily her dad was on a business trip in Europe and her brothers where away at collage their too, it was a family tradition to go their for collage, so they weren’t in the US during the bombing. She was taken from her home to Dark Asylum the day of her family’s return from Europe.
Personality: Jessica is usually a nice person with the occasional mean sarcastic comment; she likes to listen to others worries and problems and tries to help. She can be kind of blunt but it really depends on the situation. She also loves animals and is kinda a tomboy but what do you expect from a girl who grew up with only 4 men in the house.

You're all accepted!

almostinsane please fix your race from male to either human, undead, or shape shifter please

Here's my character sheet. Will be posting up the IC in a bit. Thanks everyone!
** Also, you all realize if you're human you get two powers right? Undead get one and shape shifters get none because they take on the power of the person they've shifted into.

So if you're human and want two powers just edit them into your profile.

** Warning: On other role play sites that I am on -- when I host a plot/game... I'm known as a 'Nazi GM' because I try to keep everything very tidy and what not. So, if that offends you then you probably won't want to consider staying. Then again, who could be offended by a nice clean and tidy rp? Not me, that's for sure!

-------------------------------------------------------------- >>

Name: Chloe Vendetta
Age: 17
Race: Human
Appearance: Cheese. Chloe has naturally brilliant red hair that she keeps about shoulder length with some cute bangs. She tries not to wear too much make up -- just enough eyeliner and mascara to make her deep hazel eyes stand out. Her hair compliments her milky complexion. Standing about 5'5" and weighing only 130lbs -- she's quite petite. Usually she can be found wearing darker colors such as black and grays -- it helps her keep a calm about herself.
Abilities: Manipulation of fire.
Has your character grasped their abilities yet? Not really. Chloe understands what she can do but doesn't realize the extent of her power. She believes that the only thing she can do is conjure fire to the palms of her hands. Really she is able to manipulate it anyway she wishes.
Background: Chloe lived a fairly normal life so far before the bomb hit. She had a good handful of close friends -- though they were considered the 'freaks' of school. She was the only child of a FBI agent [dad] and a police officer [mom]. Chloe never had to need for anything -- except that she wished her parents would quit their day jobs so that her friends could be at ease when coming over. Her father was very over protective before the bomb hit -- but afterward... he nearly pushed her out the door to the asylum. This nearly broke her. She had packed all the essential things -- laptop, sketch books, clothing, etc. And then she headed out.
Personality: Tends to be nice at first -- but if you rub her the wrong way she will rub back. Chloe tries to see the good in everyone but sometimes it's not as easy as she once thought it was. When entering high school she didn't have a lot of friends she she pretty much kept to herself until a couple other people had come along and broke down the walls -- those people are now dead. All of her friends are dead. She has trouble sleeping at night and this makes her a little cautious also.

Sorr tardmuffin. Edited my profile. Is it better now?

Yes it is, thank you so much I really appreciate it. By the way the IC thread is up! The link is in the second post in this thread XD

Lovely, there will definitely be a spot open for you XD

I'm so glad people have taken a liking to this plot line. It's my first plot line that I, myself, ever created and I honestly had no idea people would actually respond so well to it Yay.

Name:Alexi Prast
Age: 16
Race: Human
Appearance: Approximately 6'4", Extremely skinny and "lanky" looking. He always likes to wear nice button up shirts, does not like to tuck them in though. Always wears a black fedora with a pin on it that has a celtic cross on it. He likes loose legged jeans with legs that reach a little below his shoelaces. He always wears the mediocre vans sneakers because they are comfortable. He has high cheek bones, a sort of handsome but only if you look hard kind of look to him. His blue eyes are the most profound part of his face.
Abilities: The ability to manipulate and compress soundwaves to dangerous levels
Has your character grasped their abilities yet? No not at all
Background: [Tell us a little bit about your past. Are you a sibling? Where are your parents? Do you remember what all happened since you got your abilities? Do you like your abilities? Etc.] Alexi grew up a computer geek, always loved computers, wasnt very partial to games though, but as he was growing up he became more social when the attacks started he was hanging out with friends when he laugh shattered glass and ruptured ear drums. A few days after he was thrown out of his home and disowned by his parents, and thats when he was abducted by the men in black. Personality: He used to be open, social and even a bit of a flirt. But now he wished he could be like that, now he cannot talk aloud, only in very faint whispers. And since he cannot talk to people he has become sort of depressed.

(Better?)

I might join, if I get my brain to pump out a character other than you know who lol

Kwontumn, my only problem with this is that it appears your character has had these abilities all along. When really -- the nuclear bomb is what originated the abilities. It changed specific peoples genetic make up and gave them different abilities. So, just change the little portion of the background where it appears they just came to be as he was growing and then I'll have no problem accepting the character.

Alright, but for now -- I have to leave my little computer and run to go make dinner. Thanks everyone. Be back soon XD

Okay I updated it, is that more what your looking for?

Name: Marcus Alexander
Age: 16
Race: Undead
Appearance: http://www.revenantmagazine.com/BoyEatsGirl1337_f.jpg
His skin is white/redish and his hair is half-long black.
Abilities: The ability to teleport himself to places he can see. He cannot control the ability yet, when he tries he most often lands on the completly wrong spot. He has got a side effect from being Undead. Suddenly he can get this huge desire for flesh, wich he has to learn to control eventually.
Background: Before the explosion, Marcus was a popular guy. He could almost pick a woman where he stood. But he wouldn't, becouse he was in love with a girl, completly in love. But she was on a whole different level than her. She was one of "The Outsiders" a bunch of people who just didn't fit in. So he was happy on the outside, but desperate on the inside
Personality: He was always smiling and laughing, he had a lot of friends too. Now he has to struggle to smile.

Name: Tosh Layman

Age: 17

Race: Human

Appearance: Tosh has rather small dreadlocks that are mostly blonde. Average build and on the small size for a guy being 5'6 and 140lbs.

Abilities: The ability to turn completely invisible and transparent either his whole body or just parts of it.

Has your character grasped their abilities yet? In a sense yes., he can use his power on a whim but also randomly loses control over it as well. Such as when he loses concentration he will unknowingly use it.

Background: Tosh used to be an average kid, he was well known and liked in his circle of friends and casually known to others his age. He wasn't the most well behaved kid but he could have done worse with his relationships with his family. He had a little sister and his stepmother, both killed in the blast. Soon after authorities spotted him(with patches of his body seemingly missing) and immediately shipped him of to the Asylum.

Personality: He was always been described as mellow or a "pretty chill dude." He avoided drama and just liked to hang out. Never really expressed much emotionally other than the occasional and average outburst of annoyance. He was and still is that way, preferring to go with the flow so to speak.

Deja Vu, you're accepted [naturally lol].

And Zorian -- I was hoping that any undead characters would take heed to the no zombie rule. Mainly because I did not want them to be munching on their peers. I do not mind if your character keeps his flaw -- but please, do not eat the flesh of other players without their consent, okay? And try not to make it a habit of eating the flesh of NPC's XD

Also, I am trying to get the IC moved to the proper forum board because I messed up XD newb status.

PS: Remember in posts that this is not a school -- it is an asylum XD A little bit of a difference.

Just one question! Are we kept in cells, rooms? Or are we aloud to roam around the asylum?

Okay, what'd I miss o.o Kronos is in the RP since when? Lol -Just started reading IC-
