Introduction

There was a group of children born in raised in a Top Secret facility that was located underground. They were bred to be better in all ways then humans. Their DNA was altered to make their bodies ideal for training in strength and endurance. Not only that but they were intellectual from an early age. They were like a family to each other slept, ate, trained, and learned together. They did not have names but numbers, and if they did something wrong or incorrectly they were punished. Male and female alike had shaved heads and all wore grey pants and white shirts.
The escape was planned after the death of number three. She had been beaten for not running even though she had a sprained ankle. The doctors had told her she needed to learn to endure the pain and when she could not she was killed. It was the same day that they were told to take her as an example. They were being trained as killers and could not afford, in their later missions, to be set back by pain. And so, scared and unable to cope well with their loss, the children escaped the Dark maze that was their home and into the world above.
Now it is seven years later and the “family” is spread out leading their own lives, as normally as they can. But they are being hunted and the government is trying to eliminate them. They are a threat, and a danger, and if they worked together they could eliminate the government and make things right, or better in the world.

As for this world there are districts and on each border a gate and guards leading to the next. You must have a cretin license to pass through the districts. Things like banana bread, and pop tarts can only be found on the black market, as well as ipods, and many other things. Life is hard and people are afraid of their own government.

Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

oops. her eyes are grey. Sorry


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

Name: Jessi

Age: 20

Number: seven

Personality: Jessi is very quiet and reserved, speaking only when she deems it necessary. Everything about her is average but she was the best in her weapons class and has a high pain tolerance making her escape a problem for the government. She is usually tense and scowling especially if the others are making jokes. She respects everyone, especially Jack and Zach. Jessi is an extremely light sleeper and almost impossible to sneak up on. The only thing that gives her away is her eyes which are almost a shade of purple and don’t seem to hold emotion very well anymore.

Favorite thing about the outside world: Jessi’s favorite thing about the outside world is the darkness of the night. She loves that even at the darkest it is never completely dark Unlike solitary.

Description of the past seven years: Jessi has never had a problem fitting in because. unless she is around the people she escaped with, she can change her personality, tone of voice, and posture. This sends different body language and helps her to not be noticed. After three died she shrank into herself more than ever. She had to become adept at stealing and distracting to live. Although she is one of the younger ones she can hold her own

Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

Name: Xyaver

Age: 24

Number: Four

Personality: He is a hard headed boy. He actually enjoyed the extensive work outs and trainings at the Maze. Well at least he did until three died. HE never really took it all seriously because he was good at what he did and never got threaten, but now with the people ready to kill them if they couldn’t run. That was to much for him and now all he really wanted was revenge and redemption for her death and others that would follow. After he escaped he became obsessive with the thought of killing and taking over the government.

Favorite thing about the “outside world” : He likes meeting new people and listening to their lives and how they want to change the goverment themselves

Description of what your life has been like these last seven years: He has just been runnning and trying not to get caught.

Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

lol use two if that is the one you want. you have the right to first choise. ^_^


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

Gone for Two if that's okay, seeing as though I've set him out as a protective figure for the group (unless people deem to make their guys significantly older:P)


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

As far as the number goes. I put six on mine because i thought it might be kind of odd if i took one. so because you the first one to show interest go a head and pick a number for yourself. i would prefer if it was under 10.


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

Here it is!:

Name: Zach
Age: 22

Number: Two

Personality: Zach was never quite able to adjust after escaping the Maze, he had broken just that little bit too much when they had murdered "Three" and had never been able to deal with it. Being fifteen when they escaped, his training had lingering risidual effects. Although Zach figured himself a father-figure for some of the younger group members, his compassion only ever stretched as far his situational 'family' and his ruthless efficiency often drove them away, too. Deep down, Zach is a good person but the constant turmoil in his life requires him to stand firm and protect those around him.

Favorite thing about the “outside world” : Rain- The steady and relentless patter of icy cool droplets splattering on his face as he stares upwards at the heavens, allowing them to roll down his flesh like tears leaving a trail of goose-pimples.

Description of what your life has been like these last seven years: Zach found it difficult to aclimatise himself to life beyond the Maze. He tried hard for the first too months to settle down, but loosing 'Three' and then having the others drift away from him was more traumatic than he would ever admit to them. Predictably, tragically, he turned to the one thing he was equipped for; crime. He avoided violence, but crimes like smuggling and identity theft often meant that it happened. When he turned twenty Zach washed his hands of it, though he won't talk about why. It was around the same time that the government caught up with him. Since then he has spent two years evading them while he tracks down his old family. He won't let them suffer again at their hands.

Description of Character: Zach has the physique of an athlete. Slender, muscular but not excessivly large - nothing that would ever draw him out of an anxious crowd. He has a mess of dark, sandy hair that is juust long enough to hang over his forehead and ears, never styled but always presentable. Zach's eyes are a deep, searing blue- two brooding ocean jewels sitting in a handsome, if unshaven and scarred face. He has a healthy tan, which accents gracefully off of his cliche good looks but a number of scars pock his flesh with white. A few weeks stubble cover the most noticeable, a jagged wound across his left jawline. His other scars are all hidden beneath his clothing, ever more grisly than the visible one. Other than these Zach has a hefty number of distinctive tattoos, but they are all perfectly designed so they do not hang below rolled shirt sleeves, or shorts or above a V-neck top. Zach's life means he must change identity often; anything that reveals who he truly is is dangerous.


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

They are only humans. I suppose you could look at them as super humans. They are trained to be better then the military. As for the setting I was trying to find a picture that could help. It is in the future, not to far though, there are no spaceships or things like that. The area they are in is like a city only its bleak and polluted. So the air always seems to be clouded and never clear. All the buildings are close together and the streets are almost like allies, because of how dark and dirty it is there. Does this help any?


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

Sounds like it could be good fun. I'll edit in a character sheet to this shortly, I think. A few questions though:

From what you've said, I'm not sure exactly of the setting we are in, could you clarify?
And are these people just humans - not unlike the scenario in Hitman, if you've seen that?


Re: [OOC] Dark Maze

Name: Jack

Age: 20

Number: Six

Personality: Strong, confident, and maybe a little pushy. She is not at all intimidated by the government or the fact that they are after her. She has done well for her self and is not about to lose her freedom.

Favorite thing about the “outside world” : The feel of a breeze on her skin still gives her Goosebumps from time to time, because it was something she never experienced before the escape.

Description of what your life has been like these last seven years: The escape freed them and gave them liberties they had never had. She didn’t grow up with a parent, or a lot of people since she was born it was all ways the same people day after day. After the escape a lot of the kids stuck together and helped each other learn to live in the different environment they were now in. they new about things, because they were at some point going to be allowed out in the world and it was part of their training, as was adapting to new situations. So a year went by and that was when she began to get things together like a place to live and a job to pay for food and such. Now as an adult she has a job and friends, who no nothing of her past. She is still in contact with others.
