The Experimentals ~Discussion~

@cutebirdy79

I should have mentioned this somewhere before posting or should have asked you but I though since my character would go through heavy modification to get his power he might be mistaken for a failed experiment at first. I put him in a separate room because they think he is dead so he doesn't belong with the others. Is that alright?

@cutebirdy79 my characters started in separate rooms, and Rei took off before looking at most of the room he was in. Kylee..can't really see anything. I'm thinking Rei will bump into someone running through the halls, but I'm not going to be home for a couple days (I'll be back on Sunday) so I want to get to a point where I'm not in the way of anything.

cutebirdy79 • 13 August 2015 at 12:05 AM

@zx-metalmonster

Yes that's fine. I was just a little confused.

@chocolatechip

So was Rei in the room with everyone else or is Kylee? If they aren't, could you explain why they're there?

@xoxo5959

Yes, your character is in the room with everyone else but my character's are heading towards the cafeteria so they aren't in there anymore.

@cutebirdy79

I didn't know what I was doing, but I'm gonna say that Rei was in the room with everyone else, and Kylee wasn't because...*thinks long and hard and changes this sentence 4,000,000,000 times* ... !!! She had a medical episode and so they took her into a different room to stabilize her condition. I have an idea on how to get them into the room with everyone else.

It's going to be harder to get them in a spot where you can keep going while I'm gone for four days. I don't want to keep the rp from progressing because my characters, who are irrelevant to anyone's plot, are standing in a room while everyone else is leaving. At least this way, they can find the rest of the group wherever they happen to be when I get back.

Ugh, I'm an idiot. I'll get them in the same room as everyone else, and then find a way to get them out of the way. One step at a time.

@cutebirdy79 My characters were in a room, I'm not sure who else was in there though. So I'll just say their room was the same just barred off with curtains.

cutebirdy79 • 13 August 2015 at 11:31 AM

@chocolatechip

Okay. Now I understand. Thank you.

@featherstar_stormclan

Thank you for sorting my confusion.

@xoxo5959

I don't mean to criticize your character but I have to warn you about something. Losing one eye isn't as big a disability as you're making it seem, and don't take me wrong I'm not saying it's no big deal just that a person with one eye sees very much the same as a person with two just with a smaller field of vision. If you look online you can find a lot of people who argue that the vision of a person with one eye is bad because they see in 2D since the brain doesn't get two slightly different images to compare. These people usually don't take into consideration that there are other things that give a person an idea of depth, such as perspective, the shading of objects... I can give you a few links to back this up but I'm also telling you from my own knowledge.

Also, like I said I don't mean to criticize you, just to give you some friendly advice =)

xoxo5959 • 13 August 2015 at 8:58 PM

@zx-metalmonster

Thank you for your information. I was actually debating on having a character without an eye since I was scared of how I was actually gonna have my character develop to the change. As you can obviously tell, I was pretty much winging it ;u;

It would help if you, maybe, PM the links so I could understand and/or reference back to them? owo"

Sure thing =)

@cutebirdy79 I hope that its not too late to join this, it seems really exciting so far!

~Form~

Name: Lucia Brudnt

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Appearance:
Before - Her hair is an ashy shade of dark brown, though in most light it appears black. There are slightly noticeable strands scattered about that bear a lighter tone. Her hair is worn short and all too often reaches a slightly shaggy length, but it’s normally stands at about 5 inches, laying about in whichever way it so chooses. Thick and full. Her eyes are the emerald shade of the trees, or so some have said, with flecks of lighter, almost lime green and gold dapple her irises, but one would have to get awfully close to notice this. Lucia has a strong jawline and brow-line and more fine, ovular cheeks. She has very thin lips, pale pink. Lucia has a very slight frame with defined joints and bones. Her hip bones in particular seem to poke out from beneath any clothes she wears. Lucia is average height for her age at 5’6”. Her skin is tan with an undertone that could be best described as brown (rather than rose). She also has a very small rose tattooed behind her ear in memory of her late sister Rose.

After- Besides a rough cut of her hair, a few new scars on her scalp and a slight lightening of her eyes to a dull creamy green, there were not many changes to her appearance.

Personality: Lucia is very free with her emotions, and has no qualms about laughing with or hugging complete strangers. She isn't naturally over energetic, but finds that the emotions of others are perhaps more infectious to her than they are to the more closed off. She feels very strongly, regardless of whether the feeling is happiness, depression, love or hate. Hate may be a bit of a stretch however, as she tries to avoid developing grudges against specific people. Very empathetic.

Powers: Psionic Inundation (The user can project harmful psionic volleys, which may result in brain damage, memory loss, unconsciousness, vegetative state and/or death. The victim is not physically harmed, but damages the internal mentality of a target.) In Lucia's case, with her gentle nature, this is a power that she may grow to fear due to its violent repercussions but at times of great physical or emotional stress, it acts as a sort of defense mechanism. It is also limited by her ability to touch her target (ie. No physical touch = No power) She can also cause her targets to be "thrown back" by approximately 4 feet in order to have enough time to get away.

Other: 😊

@mila_titan

Accepted 😊 Start whenever you like.

madscienced • 21 August 2015 at 3:50 PM

Can I join in please?
@cutebirdy79 this is how you ping, right? I'm new. XD

Name: Alixza Pentir (Prefers to go by Alex)
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Before- She has platinum blonde hair that reaches down to her knees that she normally she just lets it do whatever it wants to and is pretty pale. Her eyes are red to a light purple depending on lighting. She wears a long red scarf around her neck that is old and ratty, along with frayed, over-sized jeans, an over-sized black hoodie, and beat up sneakers. She is also pretty much flat and boyish in looks. She has scars almost everywhere on her body. She is 5'3 and pretty weak.

After- The only changes are her eyes are a much deeper red.

Personality: She tends to have sudden mood swings and is a manipulative person who actively 'plays' with people to see what reactions they give off. She has almost no empathy for others and cares more about herself and what she wants than to other people, and is more than willing to let them suffer or even die if it amuses her or otherwise serves whatever goal or plan she has in mind. She is also terrified of people getting too close or touching her due to past abuse (which is also the reason her personality is so warped. she basically spent so much time being afraid/hurt that she started to imitate the abusers.). however, to the very few who actually earn her friendship and loyalty, she will do anything for.

Powers: She can breath out a light Tabun mist (a nerve agent that can cause seizures and paralysis. Deadly only in high amounts or if inhaled over a period of time. Symptoms appear slowly if not inhaled.) She only is able to produce enough to have a mild affect, not enough to cause any permanent harm.

She also has a slight immunity to attacks that come from the mind or emotions.

Other: 😃
I can change the powers if it's too much. It just seemed like a cool idea to me.

cutebirdy79 • 22 August 2015 at 10:41 AM

@madscienced

Your powers are fine. Your accepted. Start whenever you're ready 😊

@cutebirdy79

Name: Tearra Sylphos
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Before-
Tearra was once very pale with ruby colored eyes and long, pure white hair. She was quite weak for most of her life, unable to spend long periods of time doing physical labor or even walking outside; in fact she spent most of her days indoors reading books or other less taxing activities.
After-
When she was taken to the island, Tearra underwent a transformation that not only changed her appearance, but her health and fitness as well. Her long hair became a lustrous red color and her skin darkened considerably into a deep orange-brown, despite her seldom exposure to the sun prior to being abducted. Her crimson eyes remained the same color, however, and Tearra's personality has not changed much.
Personality: As someone who really didn't get out much throughout her life, Tearra is quite anti-social, not knowing exactly what to do when spoken to or when it is required for her to muster the courage to talk to another person. However, she is quite good-hearted and always thinks about others before herself. She values friends above all else, and strives to make them happy however she can; though sometimes she takes on more than she can handle.
Powers: Tearra can create and manipulate fire, but her level of expertise is only as big as her focus or anger, so her anxieties often get in the way when she needs to use her ability most.

When at her full potential, Tearra's fire will engulf her body, reflecting either her inner focus or her rage. If she is focused, the flames will be steady and strong, only burning those she would consider to be her enemies. On the other hand, if she cannot keep her emotions in check, her anger causes the fire to go out of control, burning any and all who it comes in contact with aside from herself. She is near impossible to be reasoned with while in this state, so she tries her hardest to remain calm at all times.
Other: She keeps with her an obsidian necklace, carved into a small crystalline shape. As a birthday gift from her late mother, it means everything to her. Also, "a face". *is slapped* I couldn't resist, I'm sorry, lol |D

cutebirdy79 • 27 August 2015 at 5:17 PM

@takatheeducatedkid

Accepted and yes you deserve a slap XD *slaps you again. Then hands you a cookie to apologize*

takaedakumi • 28 August 2015 at 9:12 AM

@cutebirdy79

Yay, thanks! *pats swollen face and eats cookie* :T

Seeing as the roleplay is already somewhere in the middle, how would you suggest I start up with a first post? I don't want to be that kid and just cram in a bunch of inconsistent information when I start. xD

cutebirdy79 • 16 September 2015 at 5:22 PM

@takatheeducatedkid


Sorry it took me so long to reply to your question. I had thought I'd already replied. *facepalm*

Well I'd just say that your character is heading to the cafeteria right now. There really is no need in having the part where she wakes up unless you want to write that part.

takaedakumi • 17 September 2015 at 11:28 AM

@cutebirdy79

Lol, it's fine. The same thing happens to me. :'D

Alrighty then! I'll get to writing a first post soon when I have the time!
