The City of Adoria (O/A)

[D2E]

The City of Adoria.

This sprawling metropolis is home to millions of people, all going about their daily routines. Adoria is home to a bustling economic sector. Businesses thrive in this city, and you can find anything if you look hard enough. Whether it is relaxing at the white sanded beach or risking it all at one of our world-famous casinos, Adoria has it all!

“The city of hopes and dreams! There’s nothing you can’t achieve in Adoria!”

But underneath the surface lies an entire world of secrets; an entire population with powers living secretly in between average citizens. Each one of these superhumans gets their power from their Crest, a symbol on the body that unlocks the potential of the owner, bestowing incredible energy upon them. The origins of the crests date back decades, a secret history only a select few have knowledge of.

With the number of people with crests quickly increasing, the government has turned to its newly created task force, Guillotine, to hunt down and detain any troublesome crest users. Opposing them is a rag tag gang of hoodlums known as Flaga. Will you extinguish the Rogue Crests with Guillotine or will you bring down the corrupt organization with Flaga? The choice is yours!

In the beginning, all crest users will don a black crest. (As seen on the left). Once a crest user has joined a faction, their once black crest changes to the red or blue crest of Flaga and Guillotine respectively. When a power user has their crest changed to that of a factions, they gain increased control of their abilities. Because of this, power users in a faction tend to have slightly better control of their powers compared to power users who haven't joined a faction.

This change in the crest is caused by a special ability of the leaders of the opposing sides. This secondary ability is given to leaders passed down from previous generations. Its other use can be the ability to pass on their leader-type abilities to one, and only one, person. Only one person can occupy the leader position of a faction at any time. when leaders pass on their leader type abilities to their successor, they will lose the use of the leader type abilities. If a leader names a successor beforehand, the leader type abilities will be passed to their successor upon their death.
-crest users who haven't joined a faction will maintain their black crest.

Guillotine

A division of the government that specializes in tracking down and detaining crest users at any means necessary. They promote morals and ideals for the good of the citizens of Adoria while secretly stopping individuals with crests. On the surface, they claim to take down any trouble making crest users who would use their powers for evil deeds. However, this is often a lie told to the members of guillotine to get them to follow orders. Many of the government higher ups are corrupt, and would gladly see the end of all crest users that they can’t control like pets. Although guillotine is responsible for taking down many criminals with power, innocent crest users are sometimes framed and taken down as well.

Flaga

A gang of power users made up of mostly previous or current criminals, thugs, and hoodlums. Their main purpose is to combat the forces of guillotine and cause trouble for them. Without realizing it, they might be fighting for the rights of power users all over Adoria. They fight for freedom, even though they go about it the wrong way. Not all of the members of Flaga are bad, but most of them will easily steal, vandalize, or commit other crimes as though it were nothing. Many of their members have been framed or blacklisted by the government as criminals.

Hello people of Adoria! Its your favorite underground radio station looking out for all those freaks and geeks out there, ADORIA RADIO! Why is it such a lame name you ask? Who knows, who cares, I'm just here to give you the 4-1-1 on the happening on Flaga and Guillotine. If you're a new time listener or just stumbled upon us, just know that I exist to remember the good times... That's right! Anything that's happened before will be provided here, in a nice little recap. Think of me as the after show of your favorite TV program, only shorter and less obnoxious!

Wondering who this mysterious person is and why they're doing this? I'm Nobody! Yep, just consider me an outsider that delivers the current events between the two groups. The ups, the downs, info on who did the what, where and why, and best of all obituary! Don't ask how I get this info, let's just say I've got eyes and ears EVERYWHERE. As for why I do this... meh, I don't really have anything better to do I just think what we have here is special... So anyways, just remember, if you need something that summed up everything that happened yesterday, tune in to Adoria Radio! This is Nobody, signing off!

All previous updates and any bonus background info I find will be saved right here in the Archives Thread!

Second Entry:
Heeeyyyy there Adoria! Guess who’s back? It's your Friendly Neighbourhood Radio Personality, NOOOOOOOOBUDDY! Sorry about being so darn quiet, Sometimes the things I hear just scare me straight to the bone. Some of you guys wouldn’t BELIEVE the things I’ve been hearing from Guillotine. In case you were under a rock or something, Guillotine’s Empress of Doom Alice Maelstrom just called out a war on any crest user that wasn’t running with Guillotine’s crew! For the past few hours I’ve been trying to relocate every time I see a goon run out and chase whatever they think has a crest! Alright enough about me, let’s talk about what most people with a TV DIDN’T see. Noah, I don’t know what you’ve done in a past life but OHHHHH MAAN you got your a** KICKED! It wasn’t just one person that did him in, it was a collaboration between four Guillotine members! I won’t give anything away, because I care about Ezekiel, but I hope Flaga knows what they’re doing with certain people, wink wink!

Of course I didn’t exactly… see what happened, but I heard it all! Issac knew exactly when to kidnap Noah with his crazy powers, then my good friend Nick puts up a barrier and then… Kado Swade, I’m glad you don’t know where the hell I am cause your powers scare the hell outta me! The sound of a guy getting crushed into the ground by an invisible force is something you cannot sleep over ladies and gentlemen! Anyways, now that you know how Noah got shoved into a cell, we can move on! It seems there are people I haven’t heard of before like Oliver, Hector Hayes, and some guy named Mnemoi... Mnemoisee, screw it, all I heard was gibberish whenever I head this guy’s name. Anyways, it seems these guys are moving around doing some crazy things with Guillotine, who knows what these guys are doing? I don’t, I paid more attention to the other Crest Users out there!

As you don’t know out there kiddies, Noah wasn’t the only one to be captured by Flaga. Guinivere and August were brought into custody for reasons that I cannot remember! Boy, if Guillotine was actually some swanky bar, I’d be pissed I’m not getting scooped into there… You know what, I’m done for know, I think I’m gonna *BOOM* Whoa what the hell just happened?! Hold up now kiddies, there looks like there’s some smoke coming from Guillotine HQ! Let me listen in for a moment and I’ll give you all THE BEST coverage the crappy news can’t give you!
