What happened?
After the near extinction of humans, the remaining (about thirty two million, as estimated) try to survive. Most of the remaining are severely contaminated by radiation. However, the Global Asylum of England inadvertently created what became a natural shield. Radiation has seeped into the building, and most of the residents have signs of that, though all of them are lucky survivors of the Christmas 2032 impact.
However, everything isn't as nice as it seems. The inhabitants are still prisoners, and they still struggle to scrape out an existence. They are constantly manhandled and mistreated by bored guards, and most of them have been in solitary confinement since the impact. After a mass breakout, the remaining government (all of the nations had merged into the Global Party) rounded up all the prisoners and intentionally implanted them with not only radiation, but also several movement detectors, shock receptors, and the worst were killed.
But now, with less than one million humans left, the asylum has become more barbaric than ever. The guards live in luxury in the remains of their break room, and even have limited music. Meanwhile, the outsiders, who are those so severely infected by radiation that a touch could probably cause major problems, are locked away in an asylum only miles away. However, after the asylum burned down, the outsiders began slowly leaking into the English asylum, forcing global lockdown of all areas. Thus, the only food is supplied by what is known as "scrubbed" delivery, which is basically food which has been injected with so many chemicals that it causes worse side effects than radiation. After that failed the government returned to delivering tainted food.
In the solitary confinement cells, blood, sweat, and tears have combined to form what is known as the cavern of death. The series of tunnels has been carved out by prisoners over the years, and despite the many skeletons and rotting corpses remaining in the tunnels from cave-ins and failed escapes, people still use them. Though some have been taken, and many lie in long-dead, white fingers of bones beneath the asylum, every cell has an inscription, coded or hidden by the blood of the tunnel maker. These writings, once deciphered, reveal the area in which the prisoner's map of the tunnels should be, though it's not always as easy as it seems to find the map...
So now, a few of the outsiders as well as the native dwellers of the asylum (most of whom descended from the survivors), and the world is basically locked down for what appears to be eternity. In reply, rebellions aren't uncommon. What we focus on is not only the life of the asylum, but the life of those who leave it as well...

OOC Notes
Talon sighed, raising a brow as he wandered about the mess hall for lunch. After getting his share of radiation-filled chili, he wheeled back to a table in the corner, looking about curiously, as if waiting to see what would happen. As he did so, he ate ravenously. Years of experience had taught him to eat quickly in order to keep his food.
After he was finished his chili, he set it down on the table as the loud Clack! of all of the computer-controlled cell doors unlocked, and the doors swung automatically open by means of some wild computer technology.

Cadwyn poked the lump of brownish substance with her fork. Supposedly it was chilli, but it smelled a little like drain cleaner..and didn;t look as if it had come from anything close to nature. She held her nose and scooped it down her throat at once, like she was downing some sort of particularly noxious shot of drink, and grimace a little as it left a metallic taste in her mouth and burning on her tongue.
"Ugh...nasty.." she muttered, pressing her bandaged hands against the table and glancing around the area nervously, as if expecting to get jumped at any moment. She'd edged her way into the large room but a few minutes later, and felt rather...exposed on her own. You could never tell what some of the people were likely to do.
She pushed the tray away, feeling the food doing somersaults in her digestive tract, and leaned against the table, absent-mindedly watching the young man known as Talon. How on earth did he manage to keep it down? He had to have some sort of iron stomach.
"I-impressive..." she mumbled.

Talon sighed, looking over and noticing Cadwyn, wincing slightly as his leg trembled momentarily. With this, he downed some of the water he'd also gotten, downing it in a matter of gulps before he finally backed up a bit, pulling the tattered sweatshirt he wore a bit closer about himself before he wheeled a bit past Cadwyn, finally parking himself in the corner where some old books were stored. With a contented sigh, he ran a trembling finger from one book spine to the next, finally selecting a dust-covered, old leather bound book and cracking it open, blowing some radioactive dust from the pages as he began reading. His right eye was straining slightly to read, though he seemed rather calm besides that.
After a few moments, he simply flipped the page and continued reading, his brow shooting up every now and again, only for him to mentally shrug and then flip the page.

After a few minutes of sliding her tray around and tugging at a loose thread on her sleeve, Cadwyn couldn't conceal her curiosity. She had a tendency to want to talk to most people that didn't look like they were likely to drive a metal pipe through her head, and she figured that as he was in a wheelchair, she could get out of his reach pretty quickly if he tried to break her arm or set her on fire.
She sprang to her feet, the old bandages leaving bloody flecks on the floor as she edged over, in an almost comedic attempt to look like she was doing it casually. She really wanted someone to talk to...starting to feel rather...avoided by people around the asylum of late. Being on her own was not a state she liked as it meant she was in the company of her own thoughts...and that was never pleasant.
Sidling over, she leaned forward,s tilting her head curiously to try and catch some glimpse of the book.
"Er...uh..what'cha reading?" she asked, trying to put on her most sociable and least frightening-sounding tone.
"Is..is it good?"

Jae Hwa Sat at a table with many others Talon, and Cadwyn she sat a beside them but seemed a bit distant she stared down at the tray. she could only think about her beloved cello and its lovely sound and the bow moving across it. Jae Hwa looked at them make some conversation will ya? her eyes turned white showing how shy she was "H-hello I-I'm Jae H-Hwa." she said in a small voice betting that they wouldn't here her she picked at her food a little more then ate a small portion before looking back at them to see if they had responded come on say something! "D-Do you like m-music?" she stumbled out your pathetic! why do I even try to help you, you selfish ungrateful child so annoying a pest go back to your cell and cry. Jae Hwa looked down and let a tear roll down her cheek don't cry you big baby! your life has no purpose just lay down and die. Jae Hwa quickly brushed her tear away her life had no purpose she was useless, her cat ears shoot out of her head she sighed and looked down. why does she think such bad thoughts about herself?
OOC Notes
Talon sighed, raising a brow at Cadwyn's question. "No idea, really," he muttered, frowning as he took a hoarse deep breath. "But I do believe this is something having to do with The Sword in the Stone," he said with a nod. With this, his working right eye flickered up to meet Cadywn's, though his left remained where it had been. "Anyway, you're safe with me, I'm not going to try and kill you," he added, winking before his eyes drifted back down towards his book.
"Yes, I believe this is Sword in the Stone, I was trying to read this before, but someone lost it in their cell. They eventually found it...after the dude died, but whatever. This place is already haunted enough, a ghost book's not going to hurt a thing," he muttered casually, his eyes taking in the words before he simply flipped the page. In response to Jae, he nodded, signalling that he at least knew she existed.

Violet sat in the mess hall and she looked at Cadwyn and Talon. She listened in on their conversation. Violet wasn't eating the disgusting glop they call food. She had nothing better to do so she listened. She was bored and tired. Violet's eye color changed to blue. She sighed and she put her legs on the chair next to hers. Violet hummed a small song from Evanescence. The song was called Bring Me To Life. Then she sang it in a low voice so she didn't bother anybody.

Cadwyn peered over his shoulder at the book for a moment, before straightening up. It was rather reassuring to be told straight off the bat that he wasn't planning to kill her, so it alleviated some of the crushing nervousness associated with talking to new people.
The talk of ghosts bothered her a bit. She'd heard a few stories about supposed hauntings in the place, though she could never tell if they were real, or just the workings of deranged minds. She certainly couldn't trust what she saw, as interference in the visual centres of her brain often popped up in the form of odd hallucinations, and she'd trained herself to try and pick out what didn't belong and to disregard it...though when the female nearby started sprouting ears she started to call that into question. She decided not to comment in case it was another visual disturbance, as she didn't want to start screaming about cat ears and scare off the wheelchair man, who seemed at least to be tolerating her up to now...and really that was all Cadwyn required from a person. If they didn't scream at her to leave them alone, she counted them as a decent sort.
"...how would you get a sword into a stone? That would...would really damage the blade..." she mused.
"...seems like a silly thing t-to do...if....if you ask me.."

Jae Hwa sighed at least once her life someone thought to at least nodded to her see no one likes you no one will like you your a freak face the facts hon. Jae Hwa shook her head come on no one is talking to you what do you expect? to find love? ha what a joke! your ugly, vile and stupid your nothing compared to me! she let more tears fill her eyes she pulled out her small book and put it up to her face to hide all the tears. her eyes turned blue to show her sadness yet I am dead and I took your body when will I be able to use it when will you give up stop the struggle? I can make you perfect just give up. Jae Hwa put her hands over her eyes to cover them the book dropped to the floor everyone could notice now. cry all you want you little brat ugly little snitch you are nothing.

(Minimum of one paragraph.)
Talon sighed, raising a brow and flipping the page, wincing slightly as his leg trembled once more. "Well, I do believe it was placed in there magically, bewitched by Merlin to only come out for King Arthur," he said, his eyes still locked on the book as he flipped the page, taking another hoarse breath. "Anyway, I only know because I like classics like these...only thing that still works in my cell..." Talon muttered, sighing heavily.
With this, he flipped the page once more, his eyes flashing from word to word. Ironically, when he was born, he was supposedly mentally deficient, which was about as far from him as you could get. After a moment, he looked back at Cadwyn. "Anyway, I don't know. Hm, why did Achilles just get everything but his ankle dipped? Why not just flip him around and re-dunk him, hm? It's a story, doesn't really have to have logic," he replied, grinning and winking.

The smile was rather contagious, and Cadwyn couldn't help but hesitantly return it, her thin lips pulling upwards in an awkward grin...though her expression was mainly one of relief.
"I don't know...people in stories are all a bit...stupid. Like that story I read once when I was smaller about the er...the red girl...Red Hood Girl or something...she thought some big toothy animal was her grandmother. How could you make that mistake? They didn't even look the same...unless the grandmother was very hairy..I've seen people like that...but I don't think there were mutants in those stories...I don't know..." she replied, digressing a little.
She read when she could find things, though she often didn't concentrate for long enough to get through something. She knew a few of the stories though, stories about the world when it was something different...though a lot of that seemed so alien to her that she had trouble even imagining it. It was a world away from the grim reality of every day...more than a world sometimes, it seemed. The idea that heroes in shiny armor were going to come and save everybody had appealed to her at one point, but by then she knew better.

Talon nodded, grinning. "That would be Little Red Riding Hood... They used to tell me that story growing up...they being the nurses that are long dead now..." he said, sighing and frowning. "Haven't heard many of those stories in a while...maybe last time I heard one was when I was about...six? Seven? Either way, subtract eighteen and you get at best twelve years ago..." said Talon, closing his eyes for a moment before he reopened his book.
"Anyway, I still know some of them. They were from way before this...some people still know 'em..." Talon muttered. "But most don't anymore... Really, it's a shame in my opinion, because the stories are a link to our roots...well...um...sort of. Maybe I don't want to be linked with some of those people, but at least they didn't nuke the world..." he grumbled darkly.

Violet exited the mess hall and she started to sing Cherry Bomb while dancing a little. She was in a good mood now so her eyes changed to green. She entered her cell and she continued to sing. She also started to sing Its The End Of The World As We Know It. Violet sat down on her uncomfortable bed and she sighed. She stayed quiet after that and she exited her cell. Violet looked around and she saw that everybody was at the mess hall so she danced a little in the hallway before entering the Mess Hall again. She sat down in the seat she was previously sitting on and she continued to listen to the conversation that Talon, Jae Hwa and Cadwyn were having.
OOC Notes
Cadwyn nodded grimly as she considered it. It was a strange thing to consider what the people before than had done. However much she though about it, she didn't full understand what would drive someone to launch a nuke. Didn't they understand what they would do?
"...maybe they were all just foolish like the stories before the war....why else would you launch bombs that burn everything?" she replied quietly, gazing up at the ceiling.
"....I don;t know...I try to imagine what it's like occasionally...but I find it hard...even with the stories. I guess most can't think of it at all....or maybe they don't want to....don;t want to think about it because they'd never be able to live in the now knowing what they used to have and threw away..."
She suddenly blinked and shook her head, laughing nervously and tugging her sleeve.
"...haha...sorry..I'm rambling..."

"Who knows, maybe they were just bored," Talon muttered, shrugging mentally and muttering darkly under his breath. "As for the old stories, they had morals...most people just didn't know about them," he added, coughing heavily for a few moments before he finally wiped a few traces of blood he'd coughed up off onto his tattered shirt.
"Ironically...I know that a band called The Beatles was still popular back then, even though they were all long dead. Their songs were mostly focused on bringing peace, but I guess no one listened to them with that in mind. I used to have some of their music...my Dad gave me some albums before he was hung...but that's forever ago... Who knows where they went? Probably ruined or stolen by guards," he muttered, sighing heavily and growling in pain as his chest began to spasm. "Who knows? Maybe people were supposed to do this...I heard from somewhere that there's a reason for everything...probably another of the dead nurses that used to take care of me..." he mumbled through gritted teeth,

Cadwyn nodded a little.
"I can't really think of a reason though...I don't think anything has really gotten better...I don't know...I guess I don't know enough to say..but it....it sounded a lot better then." she mused, shrugging her shoulders, before realizing something was wrong with Talon. He appeared to be in pain.
"..er..are you...are you alright?" she asked, leaning forwards, concern crossing her face.
That would be awfully bad luck, she found someone to talk to and they dropped dead within minutes of initiating a conversation. She certainly hoped that wasn't going to happen. Of course you were hard pressed to find someone healthy. The guards seemed more hardy with the better facilities they received, but no-one was what you'd call well, the price of all the radioactive particles burning around in their bodies. Some people were worse than others though.

Teeli situated herself quietly on an eroded lunch bench, moving in slow motions as to not draw attention. She listened attentively to the conversations behind her. In an environment such as this, information could prove to be valuable; or so she continued to tell herself. In a world where possessions were often ripped from you and attachments were signs of weakness, information and knowledge were of the highest priority. She swirled her spoon through her defected chili, her nose twitching as the fumes spread up her face. Something about a sword made of stone, or maybe it was a stone of swords. Focus! Teeli pinched her eyes shut tightly as her head throbbed. Now was not the time to have a headache.
Teeli rotated her neck slowly, taking a glimpse of the conversationalists over her shoulder. Her eyebrows perked up and immediately narrowed. Hmmm, it was the wheel boy... She had studied him a few times before in the precious two-hour moderated "social time" they were given. Since he was indeed a male and therefore kept in the Male Ward, she knew little about him. Though his chair was of utmost interest to her. So many cogs, nuts, bolts, and springs... She imagined herself elbow deep in the dis-assemblage. The side of her mouth curled up as her eyes traced the machine. Her lips parted as she let out a shivering sigh. Slowly rotating her head forwards, she continued to listen to the conversations around her as her headache slowly dulled.

OOC Notes
Talon sighed, finally relaxing as he looked back at Cadwyn. "Perfectly fine...sorry...that happens a lot," he muttered, scanning the pages of his book once more and raising a brow. At that moment, he noticed Teeli, and nodded simply towards her, coughing once more. "No one here's exactly 100% functional, obviously...who knows what the hell is going on inside all of us with all the radioactivity that flies around in our systems. "But whatever..."
After a few moments, he finally closed the book, marking his place by ripping off a shred of a tattered shirt shoved into a side compartment of his chair. "But as far as I know...people are definitely not going forwards on the evolutionary food chain..." he added, sighing heavily as he shoved the book back in place.

Cadwyn shook her head a little.
"N-no...I don't think so..so many mutations now...it's kinda scary...I saw a baby b-born here with no mouth once...made me feel lucky..imagine having no mouth...though at least you wouldn't ever have to taste the chilli..." she mumbled, rubbing her bandaged hands together as she followed Talon's nod to catch sight of Teeli, frowning a little and shuffling her feet somewhat on the floor.
"I d-don't really know what it's like outside here..but I've heard people outside want to get in...because...becuase it's so bad....don't think I really wanna go out there..."

"Really now? Hm...I've always wanted to see what was out there for us to see... I don't know...maybe it's just me..." he muttered, sighing heavily. "But yes, this place isn't exactly the idea place to live," he concluded, coughing a bit more before he finally leaned the little bit he could and vomited, trembling slightly, wiping his mouth off and shaking himself off. "I don't know. The medical care here is pretty lax anyway..."
With this, as if to emphasize his point, he vomited once more, frowning as he noticed traces of blood in his vomit. "Ugh...not this again... Didn't they just vaccinate me for this?" he grumbled, backing away from the vomit and frowning. "Sorry... Meh, probably worse things that could happen..."

OOC Notes
Cadwyn sprang back a few steps, trying to avoid getting her feet showered with Talon's chilli making a second appearance. People tossing their lunch up in the Mess Hall wasn't really unusual, she felt rather nauseous herself...but she stil dind't really want to get any on her. Her bandages were nasty enough without the addition of that.
Throwing up blood was really not a good sign though, and it made her frown and look over in his direction. She edged back over after a few moments when she was reasonably sure he wasn't going to do it again.
"Hm..that is....that's not very good..." she mumbled.
"....could be the food...it was really nasty today...I didn't eat much...or..or maybe the vaccines are bad...if they were actually vaccines..."

Talon frowned, shaking his head. "I doubt the chili's bad. It's getting better than usual...less of that metallic aftertaste..." he muttered, shivering slightly before he looked back over at Cadwyn. "No, probably the vaccines. Who knows what they put in those. The needles are kept who knows where, and new diseases are showing up every day."
With this, he sighed and closed his eyes, slumping over a bit as his breathing faded into a faint wheezing. "Maybe I'm just having one of those off days, who knows? We're all pretty prone to random infection here...just look at some of the records...causes of death..." he muttered, his voice a bit weaker as he pulled out a tattered old booklet containing some old prisoner records. Without thinking, he randomly opened it and read some quick information. "Age of death, 15. Cause of death was intestinal infection and possible homicide," he grumbled shoving the booklet back into place.

Cadwyn nodded, shoving her hands into her pockets and leaning back against the book case.
"....I...I suppose..I get sick sometimes...mostly get headaches...and..and nosebleeds." she replied, before lifting up her bandaged hands.
"....also these....I don't really..take the b-bandages off anymore...I don't want to know what my hands look like...don't want to see...just wanna...forget about it."
She guessed that probably wasn't very sensible...but then again there was precious little that she could actually do about in anyway. Medical supplies were few and far between. She guessed the guards had them...but she didn't really have anything the guards wanted, so wasn't all that likely to get anything. The state of her hands wasn't really their problem.

Talon sighed, nodding. "True...rarely to most people get medical treatment... Main cause of death around here..." he muttered, sighing as a guard simply walked by and mopped up the vomit, looked back at him, and walked away. "Guards, yes, they've got all the medicine they want...we don't..." he wheezed, trembling slightly as he managed to finally gather himself up a bit more, coughing up some blood before he finally returned to his more sensible self.
"Who knows, though? It's pretty much one of those 'social status' things...it all depends..." he said, fumbling with the controls on his chair, relaxing slightly as the chair slowly, somewhat jerkily rotated so that he was leaning back a bit more.

Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
Yeah... it seems that my roleplay has had a sudden myocardial infarction and died... Hmm... Well, if you want to join, feel free... not sure if you'll get much roleplay from it, though...
Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
I check back here about once every couple days man, posts haven't moved since I posted almost a month ago, safe to say its dead most likely.
Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
I am just wondering where everyone is haha. I am ready to start roleplaying when I see some activity going on :P
Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
Good evening,
I was thinking of creating a character, I've never done that before. Any advice?
I was thinking of a character who had very bad eye sight/almost blind and was a kind of crazy religious type. Asteroid was the fist of god or something along those lines. Not really sure about the religious thing, I'm not religious so maybe best to avoid.
thanks,
Adam

Crane: Needs a cane and some vicoden.
I have watched House, didn't really have him in mind when I made Crane, I just needed a Doctor that would fit in in a particularly unpleasant laboratory, and she just became fun to use.

Re: [OOC]
Blam House, Vitamin. ;) Great show, though. LOL.
Yeah, don't worry, it takes a while to get used to the layout of this place. Like I said, if any of you need help with something, feel free to message me, a designer, a moderator, a mentor, or an administrator. The staff are always happy to help out with whatever you need. :)

Re: [OOC]
If it makes you feel any better I'm a noob to RP Gateway as well, though I've been RPing for a while. I still get a bit confused with the format from time to time...but I'm sure I'll get it eventually, it's a bit of a change from an ordinary forum setup.
Dr Crane is up. =D
Not the most friendly character I ever wrote...for some reason my Doctor character always end up awfully bad tempered.

Re: [OOC]
Jumping in is the best approach, in my opinion. As for the other stuff, yes, your post is fine, I figured you were newer to this site. Anyway, your assumptions are correct, it's been a couple decades, maybe a century since the asylum was founded. Your other concerns coincide with that, so you're on the right track. :) If you need any more help, let me know. :)
Re: [OOC]
Ah, an OOC thread! This will definitely help. I apologize in advance for posting in wrong places or newbie mistakes! I'm brand spankin' new to RoleplayGateway and pretty much role-playing in general. I like making up characters and short stories, so obviously an interactive one is quite appealing.
If there's anything I do or write that isn't up to par or done in the right way, please feel free to yell at me! :D I've been trying to read a bunch of the articles written in the Academy section, but the vast quantities can be overwhelming! I figure, I should just try to jump in.
On the note of questions,
I was looking over the info trying to see what year it was exactly. I got the feeling that we were children of prisoners - so I'm guessing a couple of decades after the asylum was founded? Is that kind of the right time-line?

Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
Go for it, I'm up for anything. This is one of those things where you can go a little crazy...maybe no as crazy as Gambit's...but you can do what you feel like within reason. And a doctor character would be fine. :)
Re: [OOC]
I've been trying to work out how to get the OOC chat for the RP up properly, but I don't really understand how the chat works. D:
Well I'll just use this to ask, have been thinking about throwing another character or two in as asylum staff types, and I was wondering would a Doctor character fit into the structure? It's been a while since I use my grumpy old Doc Crane, and the asylum just screams to be the sort of place Crane would get hired.
Also tempted to put in a character the deals in contraband, though not sure how realistic that is in the setting.

Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
Okay, so, a few issues to address really quick.
Please use the OOC chat for all OOC conversation, which brings us to the subject...we do have a chat, so feel free to use it to roleplay! So, now that we're done with all of that formal stuff, let's get to the point.
First of all, remember that this roleplay is character-driven, so what you do affects the plot. That means to choose your actions carefully. As for other issues, please try to use grammar, and make sure to be a little active! Anyway, besides this, enjoy the roleplay. Just a few quick notices. As for any other things, just have fun. :D

Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
Point taken. Whatever. It's fiction, it can have some of its own logic and whatever. ;)
Re: [OOC] Mortalitas
sounds interesting, but I feel i should point out that an asteroid the size of China would probably completely destroy the planet, much less all life on it.

This is the auto-generated OOC topic for the roleplay "Mortalitas"
So, yeah, anyone can join! Just enjoy! It's more of a freeform type thing, but whatever. Anyway, start whenever you want!
