[Gypsy]

Plot/Settings

Spoiler

Kalladen was a thriving city. It was set in a large peninsula off of the eastern coast of the country of Galden. At the center of Kalladen was many small business and community buildings. Several parks throughout the city was the epicenter for stately homes. Farmland and beautiful forest dotted the peninsula on the cities edges. You could say Kalleden was the perfect picture of modern society. In the year 1992 several adults and children where admitted to Fathom Hallow, the cities main hospital, exhibiting some very odd symptoms. Some patients had developed a high sensitive to sunlight, and grew extremely sharpened teeth. Some patients became carnivorous and had long course hair and a nearly wolf-like appearance that only showed in the moonlight. Several other patients developed other mutations, each having it's own nearly otherworldly quality. Doctors where working day and night to try to figure out what was causing this epidemic. It was soon discovered that these strange symptoms where caused by a mutated virus, that was growing more and more powerful by the day.


The virus was originally transferred through the water system. The crisis was growing rapidly, and getting harder and harder to control. Galden grew fear that the towns epidemic might spread through the rest of the country, so they cut off Kalladen. The government built a large iron fort that surrounded the entire peninsula. The fort was constantly guarded by an army that came to be known as Magnus Soldiers. No one got into the town...and no one got out. The local doctors where able to purify the water, but the virus began to mutate once again. Now, it is transferred by blood. Trapped in this hell on earth, the citizens of Kalladen where thrown into a panic. Businesses where being robbed, community building and parks where vandalized.The numbers of those infected with the virus where rapidly growing.This new group of people came to be known as The Vomica, which translates to The Cursed. Fathom Hallow was changed from a hospital, to a prison, keeping those infected isolated within it's walls.


Anyone who shown symptoms of the virus was immediately ceased and taken to this new prison. Adults and children alike where being forced into this prison where they would live out there days alone. Many of The Vomica managed to escape capture and sought refuge in the outlining forests.Being pushed out of their homes, The Vomica began to settle into the forests and now abandoned farm. The Vomica had some disagreements about how to handle their new situation. Some wanted to try to make peace with the regular humans and try to find a cure, others wanted to embrace their new found powers and use them to rid the land of those that disagreed. Out of this conflict, two new groups where made. Those that sought peace called themselves Lumen, and those that sought destruction called themselves Atrum. Resources are quickly depleting, but until a cure for this virus is found...there is no way out for the denizens of Kalladen. No way in....no way out. Survival is all they have left. Nothing more....nothing less

[Don Valence]

Name: Valen "Ironheart" Helsinger.


Age: Twenty-six years.


Gender: Male.


Race: Human.


Powers: Immunity to the virus within Kalladen, and as a result is less likely to be influenced by more of the psychic-based abilities of the virus-created races.


Appearance:

Personality: Cold and spiteful, Valen harbors a strong hatred for the monstrous new races within Kalladen, and is known to spare none who step out of line. Referred to as he 'Iron heart' of the Magnus forces, mercy is not something to be expected from the dangerous monster hunter. While he remains kind and courteous to pure human beings, he displays no such warmth for other creatures, even those of the Lumen faction. In his eyes, if they are a 'monster', you had better watch yourself. Due to a psychological trauma in his past, he is known to hear voices in his head, and is commonly referred to as a psychopath.


History: Before the virus epidemic, Valen lived a happy and peaceful life in Kalladen. He had a loving wife, and a new and beautiful child, whom he loved more than anything in the world. Life had been good for Valen...until the first patients began coming in. Working as a biological scientist in the Fathom Hollow hospital, he was one of the first to witness the virus and begin preparations for vaccine. When it was discovered that the virus was waterborne, the scientists had something small to work with, but it would prove not to be enough. He spent many days and nights trying to find a cure for the dangerous new pandemic, but he came no closer to it than any of his other associates. While no cure was to be found, they had managed to at least purify the water, but the virus had mutated once more, and became transferable via bodily fluids.


Once it became clear that the virus would not be stopped any time soon, the government has created a massive blockade to shut in the citizens of Kalladen, resulting in mass hysteria and rioting. To combat this growing disaster, the hospital as transformed into a prison, and Valen had to continue his work at his home in the higher-class side of the city. While the chaos raged outside, Valen and his family hid themselves away from the outside world, surviving on the food reserves inside their home while Valen worked ceaselessly to find a cure. One night, while he was merging some experimental chemicals, he heard a scream come from upstairs. The sound startled him, causing Valen to break vial containing the fluid and cut open one of his fingers. Despite this, he rushed upstairs...only to be met by a horrid sight.


Reaching the living room, Valen saw his wife and child dead...at the bloody claws of a werewolf. The creature saw Valen and began making its way toward him, covered in the blood of the man's family. In a panic, Valen tried to escape to his lab downstairs to retrieve his rifle. The beast followed him, however, and began trashing all of Valen's hard scientific work. It was all Valen could do to obtain his gun when the werewolf attacked him and bit into his leg, its virus-carrying saliva entering his veins. Valen snarled, lowered his barrel at the skull of the creature, and pulled the trigger. Anger and despair overcame Valen, and he raised the gun to his own head, for he was sure he could change...but he stopped himself, for he simply did not have the strength to end his own life.


So Valen waited for the virus to take its toll...but the change never came. For several days, he remained locked way in his home after burying his wife and child, but still nothing happened. Then he remembered; the chemical he had been making...he had cut himself on accident, and the contents must have gotten into his blood stream. Desperately, Valen searched for the miracle cure, or at least the data. However, the werewolf attack had destroyed everything...there as no way to retrieve the information necessary to recreate the mixture. After a few more days to mourn his lost family, Valen approached the Magnus Soldiers with a new view: all of the infected were lost forever...the only cure for them now was death.


At first, the Magnus Soldiers had pushed him away; he was an average citizen in their eyes, and this a potential carrier. In order to prove to them that he was truly immune to the virus, he demanded for vial of vampire's blood. Amused by his audacity, one of the Soldiers gave him the said vial. After drinking its contents, he was carried away to Fathom Hollow and was observed for a week. When the authorities were satisfied that no change had occurred, they released Valen and brought him into the Magnus Soldiers. With his new duty in life, Valen has become a figure to be despised by the infected population of Kalladen, and someone to be admired by the few remaining human residents.


"These abominations of the world are no longer human; they are beasts, monsters. I am a predator of their kind, and a predator cannot afford to have a conscience or to show mercy..." - Valen Helsinger, the first Magnus Purifier.

[Ozmic]

Name: Marcus "Ursus" McConnell


Age: 41 (Was 36 when he contracted the virus - it doesn't look as if he's aged a day past)


Gender: Male


Race: Were-bear


Powers: Increased strength (both in his beastial form and when he's 'normal'), healing and slightly faster than normal reflexes when he's in his human form and his 'controlled' transformation. When he is transformed by the light of the moon, however, his strength is drastically increased while his speed and reflexes suffer.


Appearance: Tall and looming, this giant of a man has a look that matches his outdoorsman lifestyle. Large and toned, he stands at nearly seven feet in height, is broad shouldered and stone-faced. Never a stranger to the elements or a hard days work, his skin is tanned from the sun and both scarred and calloused. The lines in his face make him look his age, but also show that he's seen much in his years on this earth. Blanketed by long, brown hair and an equally rugged beard, he holds an air of animalistic power to him that's only grown in the years of the virus running through his veins.


His transformation looks one of two ways: when controlled, without the change caused from the light of the moon, he is a hybrid of bear and man; an eight foot tall beast with extended claws, larger muscle mass and bone structure and terrifyingly sharp fangs. When transformed by the moonlight, however, he becomes more beast than man, towering over most creatures at thirteen feet in height. His claws and fangs extend even further and his eyes burn with bloodlust and bestial rage, quite nearly glowing crimson. In both forms, his fur matches the hair on his head, brown with tinges of black and grey here and there.

Spoiler

Personality: Generally regarded as an asshole or just plain mean, the male has a very straightforward, no nonsense outlook on things. He lives to survive and, especially since the viral outbreak, to protect himself and his sister at all costs. Underneath his bitter and cold demeanor, however, is a caring individual that fears he's lost much of his compassion to instincts and the monster within him.


History: Before the virus, Marcus kept mainly to himself by farming and hunting in the vast forest surrounding his home. His parents raised both he and his sister on lands like those and he was no stranger to them, seeming to know many of the 'secrets' the forest kept from city folk. That said, he was known well enough in the surrounding towns and liked if not tolerated. However, in the years of the outbreak and the five years until the present, he'd lost any and all companionship outside of his sister. Not only did he become more reclusive, but those that had known and trusted him spread rumors of what he'd become. Usually, they stayed as far away as they could in fear, but there had been occasions where he'd been forced to show them the beast to protect his home and family.


After the outbreak and the death of their parents, he'd become much closer with his sister and took over the role of protector, paranoid that any mistake by him could saw down the last remaining limb of his family tree.

[usagi froggy]

Name: Pashmina Afghan


Age: 29


Powers: Pashmina's eyesight zoom in and out sort of like a camera. She can also focus on certain things that she wants to. She can also knit a near indestructible thread that makes what she knits like armor. She does this because people would not expect just an ordinary article of clothing to be so strong.


Appearance: Pashmina is quite a beautiful woman with pale green skin almost like an alien's, but a few shades lighter. She has long brown hair that is a similar shade to a leaf in the winter. She likes to tie it in a braid or ponytail and drape it down her right shoulder. She has a mahogany deerstalker cap made of her special thread. She has striking gold eyes that are the color of a dandelion. Her eyes fade to a pale yellow when she focuses on something. She wears brown hiking boots all the time. She has a brown vest that she wears made of her thread. She stands tall for a girl just under 5'11 and weighs 155 pounds.


Personality: Pashmina is extremely blunt girl and will point out all your flaws without the bat of an eyelash. She is pretty rude and cold towards people and doesn't like talking to people too much. She is an active girl and likes to get up and go. She'll do most things just to do the and is quite a daredevil. She doesn't like to sit around and can never sit around for more than an hour other than sleeping. She is quite conscious of her appearance and tries to make sure that she always looks well kept.


History: Pashmina's parents already knew that they wanted a boy before she was even conceived. They were disappointed when they found out that she was a female and her father vowed to teach her the ways of hunting and sports. She was born the largest baby at the hospital at 11 lbs. She was brought home after a week and was an extremely healthy child.


When she turned 5 her father started to take her out to the forest with her and let her watch him hunt. After a few weeks of watching, Pashmina took her father's rifle and shot a rabbit. Her dad took this for dinner and could never have been prouder. He bought her her own rifle and she started to go to the woods everyday after school and shot game for sport. People payed her for her game and she gave some of her own game to the people who could not afford it for free.


When she was 13 years old her father was diagnosed with cancer. He died just month after being diagnosed and Pashmina fell into a state where all she did was lay in her room. She couldn't go to school or eat or do much of anything. Her mother feared for her and knew she had to do something. A psychiatrist started to come over to her house. For the first few weeks he just sat in Pashmina's room and the stared at each other, but Pashmina then told the psychiatrist how she felt. She poured all her emotions onto him and soon felt much better. After the session she started to appear normal, but she was quite hostile towards others. Her mother wondered where her sweet little girl had gone and knew that she would never be the same.


After a decade or so of life going as normal Pashmina was diagnosed with the virus. Her mother didn't want to let the doctor's tear her away and take her to that prison, but she knew she had to. She was influenced by the others there about how terrible everything was and how the people who did this to them should suffer. After she and the others escaped she became apart of the Atrum and is now plotting her revenge against the people who kept her contained after she changed into this elven form.

 

[EliCarter]

Name: Donald Hawthorne


Age: 26


Race: Malato


Powers: None.


Appearance:

Donald is a normal height for a human man, standing at around 5'10", he weighs around 146 lbs with a defined body. His face is very similar to that of his father's, same wide jaw, narrow eyes and interestingly shaped eyebrows. But after the virus hit that all changed, his fair hair turned black, the whites of his eyes turned black as well while his irises turned white.


Personality: Gruff and tough, Donald was never a sweet boy to begin with, finding friends with the rampant young testosterone-driven boys and never looking back. Of course as he grew older his father wanted none of this, cutting all ties with the boys friends and forcing him to study politics and learn the ways of the city. Of course this only made him lack the social skills necessary. Thus Donald has the makings of a business man internally but his bristly nature, and now terrifying appearance keep this side of him far away.


History: Donald is the son of the Mayor of Kalladen, the mayor was not a man who stayed in power using his charm and charisma, though he had plenty of charisma and charm anyways, unfortunately it also worked on the shady side of politics.


Donald grew up with his Dad constantly flinging politics in his face Donald, despite his distaste for it, internally the boy grew into a talented politic, and while he hated it, he joined many clubs and signed up for many activities he wasn't very fond of in order to appease his father.


As the events of the virus took place and though the mayor found out his own children had become infected he left when the walls were put up, focusing on leading his city from behind the walls, though he soon gave up and used the epidemic as more of a tool to gain sympathy while he attempts to work his way higher up.


Donald realized this quickly and his hate for his father sky rocketed, disgusted with humanity and their selfishness he's more focused on enjoying himself and trying to stay alive than doing anything else. He's affiliated with the Atrum and will help them out occasionally on their missions. 
Name: Maya Hawthorne


Age: 21


Race: Fae


Powers: Classic Fae abilities, save for her orbs function similar to weakened phosphorous missile heads, just obviously without the explosion.


Appearance:

Mae's already slender frame was diminished by the virus, taking her from 5'3" to a mere, barely 5 feet tall, she weighs 112 lbs. Her hair is light, as are her eyes and it is cut just above the armpits. Other than the change in her stature and her hair and eye color she looks relatively human.


She can normally be found in many feminine outfits, blouses, high waisted skirts, cardigans, which directly contrast the leather jacket and thick leather gloves she wears in order to subdue the effects of her touching metal.


Personality: Mae is a woman who knows how to carry herself to receive what she wants, posh and subtle, she's more inclined to quietly chew someone without than engage in a screaming match with them. Her pride comes from her vast knowledge of the politics and layout of Kalladen, though her inexperience and her pride are her vice in many situations.


History:


Mae grew up with the same fate her brother had, though she embraced it more readily than he did, despite the fact that he was more naturally attuned for such subjects it didn't take long for her to completely immerse herself in her work. Getting to know Kalladen, and dabbling in the illegal activities there as well, not that her father knows of this.


When she was sick, though provided the best service, alongside her brother she thought her father would stay with her, and was sadly mistaken, though she believes it's only a political thing, and he'll be back, while Donald knows the truth, in the meantime she has urged herself to lead the city in her father's face, managing to gain a few followers with promises of "freedom" and a "cure", lies told to her by her father through the wall too keep her calm.


She is on the Lumen side, and currently resides in the "hospital", and is attempting to be free in order to make it to her father's home and splurge the resources there, with her small following.

History: "Where am I?" The man's vision was blurred with an amassed haze that caused the color palette of the world around to mix together with no outlines. The man slowly lifted his head as his whole body felt that of a heavy weight on each limb. "Who.. am I?" The man asked in confusion as he lifted his led like limb from the floor tucked inside his fingertips was a large book with postet notes rising from the top in a colorful arrangement. "Whats this?" He slowly opened it the contents of the book made his eyes explode with a vibrant intensity. His pupils shook in socket as he read the first page.

Zaq's finger pressed against the pages on the side and thumbed through it as each page had his writing all over every corner of each sheet. the pages felt familiar to his finger as the little tuff of air from the pages flying by tickled his forehead. So this was his life now... the shock he though he would feel was gone. As he had learned that he is practically dead already tainted his very mind. Zaq let out a sigh as the book came to a close with less than half of it written in. A pen was clipped to the back bounded cover that looked fairly new as it had just been replaced. Zaq slapped the book closed with a low thump as he slowly lowered himself back down onto the cot bed he was apparently sleeping on. Everything seemed to be slowly making sense in his head as he grasped his surroundings of a small room complete with a cot a end table a small light and a closet. Zaq yawned as he turned and faced the door the cot letting out a shriek and moan as his body moved into position.


Other note:


His book is his sole possession and will stop at nothing to keep it safe.

 

[Damien Decker]

Name: Vinn Sage


Age: 26


Race: Striga


Powers: Telepathy


Appearance:

Personality: Vinn is an easy going guy. He likes pina coladas and strolls on the beach. He has a short temper, but for the most part can keep it under control. He has a weird sense of humor, and can be a bit perverted sometimes. He is always cracking joke and teasing people for fun, but normally means nothing by it. He does have a tendency to over react to most things and needs guidance sometimes to determine whether or not it is the right time or place. He loves to make friends and be surrounded by other people all the time, it makes him feel important.


History: Vinn was infected at the age of 22. At first he was scared but quickly learned to accept his new found gift and embrace it. His family was killed in the panic when the infection first broke out. He was left by himself for a little over a year, to fend for himself. After he became infect, he found a small group of other infected. He stayed with them for about 2 years, learning his new found powers and developing them. After he had learned what he could and felt he could survive on his own, he took off and went exploring for new found friends, making sure to stay under the radar of the Magnus. Staying deep in forest and caves most of the time he made it to present day with only a couple cut, bumps, and bruises.

I think I might drop out of this, I have a couple of big rps coming up and trying to juggle this one just isn't going to work.

 

[Gypsy]

That is alright Eli, understandable. Due to the fact that I am not going to be on very much, and so many people have dropped out, I will probably be closing BC, for good this time.
