::Background/Plot::
You startle awake to a sharp pinch in your forearm. The first thing you notice is a piercing white light, illuminating a pale blue ceiling. When you try to move, you notice your limbs are numb. Using your eyes to figure out what could possibly be wrong; you notice hard leather cuffs strapped to your wrists and ankles. They would hold you still even if you could move.
“Subject has returned to consciousness.” A rough female voice says. It sounds like she is talking through a cup. “Ready for insertion.”
Insertion? There's a slight sway, as if you’re being lifted, then the sound of metal against something rough sounds from near your feet. The blurry lights above you are cut off by a pitch darkness so intense, you might as well of closed your eyes. After a few minutes of the shrill sound, there’s the sound of a lock latching, then silence. Seconds go by; they seem to turn into minutes, which melt into hours.
Suddenly the cuffs around your wrists and ankles release. The room around you is small, metal, and still dark. You can barely sit up right without hitting the ceiling. Before boredom, curiosity, and fear can take over, a painful light flashes in front of you, almost blinding you. As your eyes adjust, you can see it leads out into a grassy field. When you step out, there are several more kids standing as confused as you across a huge meadow, surrounded by thick woods, then by steep, slick looking mountains.
You do not know your name, your background, or even what you look like. The last memory you have is waking up to those bright lights. You have the basic knowledge of how the world and survival works, but not the slightest clue how you obtained this knowledge. In addition, somewhere in the back of your mind, you keep hearing ‘Survive, don’t trust, rebuild’. It’s faint, but there. Don’t trust whom? These other kids who all look as lost and scared as you feel?
::About Your Role::
Unknown to you, there has been a breakthrough in science that could make the person who can perfect it rich. It's called the FOY injection. FOY for "fountain of youth". The injection was created by mistake and dangerously unstable. Over twelve volunteers have died for the chance to stay young. It miraculously keeps one from aging. Not forever, but maybe one day. So far, the side effects have been less and less violent towards the human body. It seems to alter matter at its' core. A majority of the people injected with FOY have reported shocking abilities. Bending water, crushing earth with their bare hands, not being burned when accidentally setting their hands on something hot. Faster healing than the average human being. The FOY volunteers started to push their abilities to the limit. Most ended up killing themselves, thinking they could fly or stop trains. The others just went insane. So a group came together to start a program that would ultimately result in stabilizing the injection. They took took young 'troubled teens' from group homes around the world, paying those homes more money than they could spend. They wiped the subjects memories with a simple surgery to the brain, used a therapeutic hypnosis to install certain commands into their heads, and set them free inside a treacherous environment with a fake agenda to study and fix FOY as need be.
::The Cove::
The Cove is surrounded by lush woods and steep, unsafe mountains. It's your new home. There's just one water source and plenty of space for building. The animals are exotic, some are poisonous, some are delicious. Some will kill you. The lake smack in the middle of the Cove is filled with plants fish, rocks, and fresh water. The mountains are unclimbable and abilities seem to have no effect on them. Hunt during the day because at night, creatures of the darkest nightmares come down from the mountain-side caves, looking for food and human is not off the menu. They're not much bigger than a lion, but they're powerful. They will not pursue pray that will cost too much energy to obtain. They are not all that intelligent and wont break into structures, but if you are out in the open, you're as good as dead.
