Introduction
Throughout history there have been those gifted with Diamond Eyes, though those that have them more often than not refer to them as Cursed Eyes. Traveling through bloodlines involved in a pact long forgotten, the Diamond Eyes have steadily gained their strength. Where one could only see small glimpses into the future, now one can bend reality to their will. The one who could do this was David Lorenzo, more commonly known as Hex. Three years ago, Hex created a disaster that caused the deaths of hundreds and in doing so revealed the world to Diamond Eyes. The eyes have only gotten stronger as time past, making it more and more difficult for those with them to stay unnoticed. Hex was captured and imprisoned, his eyes covered and his body bound. Since then, those with Cursed Eyes have been hunted, captured and killed. Its hard for the general public to sympathize with people who can invade their minds after all. While most, even the government, don't know the extent or limitations of their powers, one thing is certain for all those who have them: Hex must be dealt with, either released or killed. Some see him as a leader, destined to bring about a worldwide revolution. Others see him as a psycho who f*cked up their lives. No matter which way you see it, everyday Hex is with them, then everyday they learn more about the secret behind Diamond Eyes, a secret almost all with the eyes don't even know. The story begins in the city of Ares, three years since the discovery of Diamond Eyes.
Diamond/Cursed Eyes: People with Diamond Eyes tend to have a faint glow to them, leaving a light stream the same color as their iris when they move or use their powers. People with Diamond Eyes are also allowed to have any eye color, but often wear color contacts to blend in, though it does no good if someone notices the light stream (making moving at night a lot harder). People with Diamond Eyes can have Heterochromia (though it is rare), but their powers are often weaker than those with same color eyes. The more they use their powers, the worse the light residue gets and eventually it appears even when they are standing still (Starting with the right eye and eventually the left). Powers are most often mental though many do exhibit manipulation of the physical world. Some are incredibly complex, such as controlling an element like Helium. Some are fairly simple like reading someone else' thoughts. The maximum number of abilities you can have is three.
Weaknesses of having Diamond Eyes: Most people with the eyes are blind by the time they are 60. Due to their natural adjustment to the eyes, when blinded they are unable to rely on their other senses effectively. While normal people can focus on sound and smell, those with Cursed Eyes find it difficult to do this. They are also unable to use abilities or powers while blinded.
Strengths: Eye sight, up until Senior years at least, is far superior to a normal humans, even that of a birds. Natural photographic memory. Heightened reaction time to visual movements. Able to see in the dark.
Rules:
1. One rule and one rule only. Do Not Be A D*ck. That basically covers everything from God-modding to one-liners.
