"Box"

Yesterday was a typical day. You went to work or school... or just lazed around the house, or did whatever you usually do. There had been no warning or sign that anything would change. There had been no impending apocalyptic predictions, well at least not till the end of the year.

And yet...

6,840,507,003 people, roughly the world's population, had vanished over night. Not died. There was no huge battle for the souls of the masses. No corps left to signify that there had been so many people. No zombies, no asteroid, no aliens, nothing. Only the buildings remained and all life vanished.

And somehow, you are still here.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It had been a glitch in the system that had caused this. The artificial beings that were called humans were very few in number, not that they knew such. They were kept in the Box, a high-tech simulator. The four were raised from infancy very carefully. They were supposed to die in there, never learning of the truth. Unfortunately this changed everything.

The idea was to create a new race, similar to our own, but without powers. There were many reasons for this. Mainly though, we hoped to delude the seemingly ever growing powers of our own people. It sounds strange doesn't it? That we would hope to cripple our own strengths. It was tragic, but our powers would only lead to our demise. With each generation the powers grew and it had almost become a race. Families struggled to find others of power, secure an heir who would be stronger than all others, and the final goal was to rule the world. Of course no one openly spoke of such, but it was obviously happening. Which is why the Box was constructed, why the humans were made.

Unfortunately with this glitch, we can't continue testing the humans within the Box. We have no clue how they'll react to their entire world being a lie. Worse yet, we have no way of knowing how they will genetically react to us.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So this is where we, the humans, begin. Our world is empty and a strange voice calls us as if through a PA system to meet with each-other...

As long as I can fill the human slots, we'll start then and I'll take Crete number 1 for the sake of the plot

K, Submitted my character. Decided to just get it done today. If I need to fix anything lemme know.

Miikii · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Miikii** on Fri Mar 30, 2012 2:55 pm

Looks good to me ^_^
Apparently blonde is the hair color to have XD

I also added my own Crete for the sake of starting right away once we get the last human at least.

Zodia195 · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Zodia195** on Fri Mar 30, 2012 5:28 pm

Well if you have problems getting people, I can always play a Crete too. One question though, the 3 Cretes from the power houses, did they want to marry one of the humans?

Miikii · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Miikii** on Fri Mar 30, 2012 5:51 pm

No, well kinda not. The 3 are looking to enhance their powers, take over the world (more like a King/Queen, but perhaps there's a few dictators out there) and such. This is usually done by finding someone else with powers similar to their own so that their children can be even more powerful. The humans are a product of the government, and the idea was to delude the powers so that no one could take over like that. The humans are basically, top secret government biological warfare in a sense.

So 1. the houses /shouldn't/ know about the humans
and 2. if they did they'd probably not like the idea

Of course the side effect of the humans' power duplicating/magnifying might change their minds, and further more there's no way of knowing what the child of a Crete and Human would be like. So it would be a gamble. The result could be a truly powerless person or an extra powerful one.

But what's a gamble like that if anyone should fall in love. =P

Sorry I took so long! I've submitted my character. Let me know if anything needs to be changed. :)

SukaiKori · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **SukaiKori** on Sun Apr 01, 2012 7:16 pm

:3 I'm really interested in starting this. Question, do the humans start off inside of the box or in the same place the Cretes or in?

Zodia195 · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Zodia195** on Sun Apr 01, 2012 11:46 pm

Looks like Arctic fox isn't going to submit a char. I sure hope we get that last slot filled soon. 1/4 of the rpgs I join don't even start due to people not joining.

SukaiKori · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **SukaiKori** on Tue Apr 03, 2012 10:22 pm

MM, same here. I'm waiting on a few to start before I can start posting but it's taking a while. This seems like a really cool RP too. Hope more ppl join.
