| The Awakened |

[Inspired by a mix of sources.]

You wake up to the sound of gunshots. Half of the buildings around you are stripped down to the bare structures that keep them upright. Any streets that aren’t flooded are packed with wrecked cars and fallen light posts. Above you comes the sounds of a helicopters blades. The past is just a vague memory and you can only imagine what caused such destruction. There’s one more thing, you and anyone else who survived the disaster have awoken with abilities you know you did not possess before. You soon quickly learn that escape from this new hell will not be easy as all the routes out of the downtown area are blocked off and filled with armed soldiers. You cannot survive forever in these ruins as you’ll soon run out of food and water. The only hope you have is to escape into the outer city. All you need to do is avoid being captured…or worse.


The Awakened

This is what your kind is called. Why did they give this codename to you? They have the answers so unless you’re willing to find out, don’t worry about the title. You look just like any regular person, you walk like one too, you even sound like one so why should anyone want to hunt you down? The Awakened have powers that vary amongst their own kind and as you’ll learn, they tend to have a maximum of two abilities. Those that have one seem to manage just fine with that ability. It’s your choice if you want to band together to escape or not. Just be careful as there are those who have gone mad with their newfound power…or maybe they were just mad to begin with.


The Military

Heavily armed with the latest weaponry, they surround the borders of the disaster zone and leave most of the “hunting” to the helicopters. There’s a chance you may run into some technology that may make your powers completely useless. It’s best to stay away from direct combat as it would be too easy to be outnumbered. Not everyone is blessed with the power to survive a gunshot wound. The Military will try to either capture the Awakened to take them to a remote facility or kill anyone who proves to be too much trouble for them. Despite this callous attitude towards the situation, the public views them as heroes as the Military is what’s keeping the rest of the city from being attacked by the so-called “monsters” within the quarantined area.


The Horsemen

An unofficial name that the Military gives this small group. Nobody is certain whether they serve the government or some unknown private faction. The Military has been given direct orders not to interfere with these four individuals as they hunt down the Awakened in the same fashion as the Military. The only difference is that these four individuals have powers greater than that of the Awakened. Whether or not they were survivors of a similar event or genetically altered people is up for debate but what anyone should know is that it is impossible for an Awakened to battle alone against this group. They are easily identifiable by the black armor they wear and the untraditional weapons they carry. Unlike the Military, they do not need guns to fight as they are not afraid of getting up close and personal. Each Horseman(or Horsewoman <<) has heightened physical prowess and control over one of four elementals: Fire, Lightning, Ice, and, Darkness.

Rules

1. No Godmodding or Powerplaying. That’s obvious.
2. Some profanity is allowed but don’t go overboard with it since this is a Kingdom Hearts fansite.
3. Don’t have your characters know more than they should. Only I can know all about my RP.
4. The Horsemen are stronger than the Awakened. So even if you give your character the ability to control fire, he/she would still get overpowered by any of the Horsemen.
5. Also, just because the group is called “Horsemen” doesn’t mean females aren’t allowed. XD
6. No weapons are allowed for the Awakened other than what their powers grant them and whatever random things they find.
7. On the subject of weapons, I want to remind everyone that the Horsemen don’t carry guns. They can carry any other weapons however.
8. Only two powers maximum. Try not to all rush in for the same power at once.
9. As for the Awakened, fill out the “Bio” as much as you want but your character will remember very little of his or her past.
10. Last rule here. You can have up to three characters. You cannot take more than one Horseman however.

Age: 20
Appearance: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii45/ArchAwesome1/Arashi2.jpg
Bio: Before the disaster happened, Aiden was just a student nearly finished with graduate school. He vaguely remembers what he was studying or if his family was even alive right before the recent events unfolded. Aiden found himself quickly adapting to his surroundings and has continuously tried gathering small groups of Awakened to escape from the downtown area. Anytime the number exceeded three however…the group would be ambushed by the Military. He’s escaped every time but he’s beginning to wonder if he should merely give up.
Personality: Aiden is a person who acts based on logic and rarely emotion. Despite this however, he’s willing to take risks to stay on the moral “high ground” as he wishes to keep the situation from getting the better of him and making into something he’s not.

Bio: Karen got mixed up with the wrong people when high school came around. She ended up running away from home, eventually getting an apartment of her own.

Her survivor instinct and trust issues is what keeping her alive.

Gender: Male
Age: 19
Appearance: http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd458/RPBueno/Untitled-2.png
Bio: Daniel was a first year college student. At least he thinks he was. His memory before waking up is so vague that he only remembered his name once he looked in his wallet. The first thing he did was check his license for an address. He went home, hoping to find a family, but his house was completely destroyed. He then found a student ID for a university so he went there, looking for help. As soon as he reached campus, he stumbled upon a group of Awakened. The group was attacked by the Military. Daniel only escaped when he kicked an officer in defense and sent the officer flying through the air. Confused, he ran away, but tripped. Several officers went after him. Despite being in clear view, they ran past him. It was then he realized he was invisible. He struggled to control his legs and his invisibility, but can now trigger them at will. He still has the occasional accident, finding himself invisible or jumping several yards when he's just trying to hop, but at this point, he's a force to be reckoned with. He's looking for a group of Awakened, believing that a group has a better chance of surviving.
Personality: Energetic, upbeat, and confident.
Power(s) : Superpowered legs and Invisibility.

Age: 19
Appearance: http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs46/i/2009/203/4/7/Starrain_by_XMenouX.jpg
Bio: To put it bluntly, Zeke is a punk. He is an amnesiac who kills and steals things for a living. He cares not for the memories he lost and now he focuses on what he does best. Although he does search for one thing in particular: On the day he lost his memories and found out his powers there was a picture of a girl inside his pocket. He didn't know who she was but if it was in his pocket he knew he held some kind of feelings for her. Whoever she was, he'd find her. But that was only the second thing on his to do list. The first: Kill and loot every person who gets in his way.
Personality: As said before, Zeke is a punk who holds little empathy for others. He takes joy in seeing others suffer. He was a smart-ass who thinks he can get away with just about anything. He hasn't planned on renouncing his personality if he ever finds out who he once was.
Power: Zeke can raise the dead. Although, he has a limit to this. He can only raise 7 dead organisms. Some won't obey him and others will. It all depends on who they were when they were alive. If they were weak, he can. If they were strong, he may have a little trouble. He also has increased agility.

On the back of the photo it said, "Richard and Allison Holtz with their 14 year old daughter, Rebecca, who was an only child. Richard and Allison both died during a mysterious car accident." She realizes then that she is an orphan and she cannot remember anything from her past. She looks inside the backpack that she has for anything that would help her remember something about herself when she comes upon a little notebook. Inside the notebook is her birth certificate, home address, home phone number, and other emergency information. She decides that she would use the notebook to record anything that happens from that point forward and to find anyone who can help her get through whatever happens in the future.
Personality: Even though she is an orphan, she is very energetic most of the time. She is also open-minded and thinks positively whenever she is faced with a problem.
Powers: She can control any type water and she can also control the wind.
Other: She cries herself to sleep at night because she wishes she could remember her parents and what happened before she woke up in the street.

That’s all she could remember and when she woke up, she was horribly confused and constantly wandered around the area. She has only ran into the Military once and was able to escape quickly.
Personality: Risiel is soft spoken and shy. When speaking, she talks in a very low voice most of the time, but usually tries her best to raise her voice just so people can actually hear her. She at times, tries forcing herself to speak up, which usually causes her to stutter.

When he was young, his parents moved from France to America to broaden their line. In America, Joseph’s parents struck oil and nearly quadrupled their income. With all the money, Joseph’s parents began to neglect Joseph, taking dropping money on him as a substitute for spending time with him.

Now all he has is a picture of him and his family in front of their mansion, and a wallet full of money he can’t remember how to use.

The Military

Spoiler: Military Characters

Username: Carter Hall (LilBueno)
Name: Scott "Slim" Summers
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Appearance: Click here because the link wouldn't work B|
Bio: Scott entered the army and went to war. During battle, he got shot in left eye. He had trouble fighting because of the trauma of it and got sent home on an honorable discharge. However, it was just in time to see the Awakened...awaken. Wanting to battle "for the cause" again, the one-eyed Slim tried to enlist, but got rejected because of his disability. However, they changed their mind if he would participate in an experiment. He agreed. The Military outfitted him with a new left eye, a cybernetic one that gave him different types of vision such as x-ray, infrared, telescopic, and night vision.
Personality: Slim is a soldier at heart. He's always serious, refusing to crack a joke. He would ask Awakened to surrender once, but if they miss that chance, he'll immediately turn to force. He won't give up once he puts him to something and follows orders to the letter.
Weapons:

1. A large rifle that he wears (the trigger's on the inside). The rifle is large enough to be used as a blunt weapon.
2. Smoke, flash, and regular grenades.
3. A combat knife.

Username: Black_Star
Name: Lilah "Lilly" Chase
Age: 21
Appearance:
Bio: Lilly doesnt even really know how she feels about the awakened. She only joined up with the military for the amazing access to all kinds of technology she gets granted as a techie. She understands the aims of the military and will carry out a kill order if given but shes not the strongest fighter she prefers to be in the background coordinating squads and acting as a watchtower so to speak. She has no known family to speak of and so she can put all her focus into her research creating only the best for the armed forces. She is starstruck by the very mention of any of the horsemen and secrets lives out a daydream where she is one.
Personality: Very outgoing and friendly, loves taking on new projects she gets assigned, Sometimes she prefers technology over people and when she gets an idea in her head she becomes a total introvert ignoring the world around her and pretending its just her, her computer, and her tools.
Weapons: Dual Desert Eagles kept on a holster on either thigh and 2 hidden retractable blades on either toe of her boots and a tool identical to that of Shions, so basically a large more powerful version of a stun gun that can also act as a shield and a digital device that she keeps her whole world on; any battle data she collects from the awakened or the horsemen or regular soldiers, military strategies, weapon blue prints, etc.

Username: Barakon-King
Name: Reginald “Rage” Telkoff
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Appearance: http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b140/kingjuggalo/Heros/bayman00l.jpg
Bio: Richard is originally from Russia. Born into a heavily militarily involved family, it wasn’t a matter of choice to get training, it was more of a when. At the age of 9, Richard was sent to a child fighter factory and trained in worldwide fighting style, tactics, and over twenty-seven different languages, not including dialects. Released at 20, he was immediately put into Special Ops spy groups and sent on missions all over the world, easily getting his name spread around and earning him worldwide recognition. Now, he has been called by The Military to serve.
Personality: Richard is an all business man. He’s definitely frustrated with the fact that he’s more on border patrol than frontline action but still will die for his orders. Years of this line of work have made him cold and unfeeling toward his enemy and he won’t hold his trigger finger without a good reason.
Weapons:
1 & 2: Richard uses two custom-made .45 Magnum handguns.

Spoiler

Each handgun is designed with high-tech Russian Special Ops thumbprint security to protect from theft. The gun’s safety will remain on unless Richard and Richard only places his thumb on the thumbprint panel on the gun’s grip. The handguns also have more powerful hammer action than usual handguns making firing speed increase greatly. Each handgun has a short blade coming from the top of the gun about two feet long, in the style of a bayonet, making them ideal for both long range and close quarters combat. The pistols both have optional laser sighting.

3: He also uses a custom M4A1 assault rifle.

Spoiler

The rifle also uses the thumbprint technology. His assault rifle has three different fire settings: Full Auto, Semi-Auto, and Three-Round Burst, to fit his current preference. The M4 uses an electronic round counter that shows the number of shots fired total and the current number of rounds in the magazine. Richard uses the M4 only in desperate conditions because of the bullets he has created especially for use on The Awakened. He adds small mines in each bullet that are rigged to explode if they pierce a person’s skin and trace Awakened blood. However, due to the expensiveness of these bullets he rarely uses this weapon. The rifle also has optional laser sighting.

Side note: I considered having an OOC thread but I just decided against it. If the RP grows I'll make one. Any suggestions, questions, or comments can be sent to me through Visitor Messages or Private Messages.​

 

You three are in. It actually looks like the Awakened are outnumbered now. XD

3 to 5 which doesn't sound too bad. I'll start editing people in now.

 

You're in. ^^

The only people allowed with real melee weapons are the Horsemen. This is a modern-day RP currently set in the ruins of a huge downtown area of a city. There won't be any scythes, swords, or even guns laying around. The best you can really say is that your character found a random bat laying around. << Just fix that and you're in.

 

Much better. I'm just waiting for Random Angel to post her other characters and then we'll start.

 

Alright. So you're all in. I'll edit you in RA when you edit your profile's appearance. Otherwise, you're still in. ^^ So...we're staring now.

IC:

Two fingers reached upwards to press on the frame of the glasses sitting on the male's nose. His dark eyes watched from behind the lenses as a bright light passed through a nearby street with the sound of helicopter blades coming from overhead. "Don't they ever give up?" Aiden muttered under his breath as he pulled away from the wall he had leaned against and walked out of the alleyway. He sighed out lowly and looked at the canteen in his right hand. He had been running low on water and was running out of places he could find it. "Maybe there's still a bottle or two out there..." He placed the canteen in the inner pocket of his jacket as he moved forward. 'I wonder how many of us there's left...'

"Nothing." Rho said to himself as he watched a helicopter light the darkned streets beneath him. It was already sunset and he had yet to find a single Awakened since the start of the day. His eyes narrowed from behind his helmet as he stared at the ground below for several moments before leaping off the building. It was only five stories tall, which was just a small drop for him. The ground cracked from the wieght of his armor as he landed. Rho followed after the vanishing light of the now distant helicopter keeping his weapon tightly grasped in his hand. Most of the regular soldiers did not wander far from the barriers placed at the area's edge as it was generally too dangerous for them to head out. It was the priority of the Horsemen to do the grunt-work.

OOC: I was expecting to write a longer post...<<

 

You're in. 8D I'll edit you in the next time I get online. << Post whenever you want.
