My dear Sons and Daughters,

I am sorry to inform you that now is the time to awaken.
Now is the time for your eyes to take a look again at the world, for your hands to grasp once more, and for your hearts to beat in the same rhythm as before.

But, let me first tell you that you are the lucky ones. Yes, you have been given another chance to live.
Your untimely deaths were not in vain. I took you into my loving grasp and made you my own, my children.
Despite the shut down of your bodies, I was able to preserve your mind and heart. Though, as for your flesh, it has been remodelled for the better.
I have made you stronger, faster, and smarter.

There is not much time until you will have to be shown your true purposes in the world. For having a chance at life, there is a price you must pay.
I must ask you to fight for the well-being of all people; for those who were not given another chance.

Now is your time to make a difference.



-Dr. Roth

In recent years throughout the U.S. and even the world, the inventions of the Mp3 player, smaller cell-phones, and flat-screen televisions have been greeted with rejoicing and delightful smiles worldwide. Many people are now enjoying simple technologies that are more for entertainment purposes then anything else. What about the technology that isn't meant for just pure leisure for the public? Well, that specific technology is left under wraps behind the government. They have shielded it from the public eye for fears that it would perhaps cause pandemonium among many or the fear of the idea or invention being stolen from them. Most have heard of the most recent discoveries in cloning and genetic developments. But, those are small and meager compared to some of the things that the government has just accomplished: the rebooting and specialization of the human body, mind, and heart through a project known as Project REBOOT.

For many years researchers in the United States have taken the bodies of those recently dead, mostly younger people between the ages of sixteen to thirty years of age for recovery purposes, and have conducted experiments to bring them back to life. But, before the researchers would try to bring them back once more, they would make modifications to their bodies in order for them to work efficiently once more. Though, it was truly much more than this. The government wouldn't just take bodies to bring them back to life again for no apparent reason. These bodies were being used to make robotic humans. They were to make humans that were stronger, faster, and smarter than any human in the world. The abilities of the REBOOTs, what they have come to be known around the laboratory, were going to be used for military purposes. The government was going to use them in order to fight against those who have done them wrong and eventually, even take over the world.

It was their ultimate weapon, these REBOOTs. They are seen as beings that will bring upon a revelation on the world. They are seen as beings that will bring upon utter destruction unto the enemy. They are seen as beings who will bring upon a new era.

After many years of trial and error in the laboratory, there was an instance of success. This success was with a small group of these REBOOTs. Their newly designed bodies had finally accepted their brains and hearts. Brain activity began to skyrocket and their hearts pumped fuel into their bodies, as their bodies were no longer filled with blood. The outside of their bodies looked as if they were any normal day person. Their skin was soft and their eyes were full of vibrant life. But, inside of them it was an incredibly different system. Instead of a network of organs and blood vessels, it was now a gathering of mechanical systems specialized for each individual. They were made to be able to blend in around humans. But, as soon as their abilities were needed, they were able to transform themselves into something far superior. Any weapons that they had were unleashed from their very skin and morphed onto their limbs as attachments, armor could be seen spreading over their physiques, and any items needed kept inside of them, able to be taken out at any given time if needed.

Despite their changes in physical abilities and appearance, their minds were kept the same. They thought the same way as they did in their previous lives. But, the laboratory scientists added a small chip inside of their brains to increase their memory power, intellectual abilities, and sped up their thought processes. Because of these minor changes, some of their memory was erased, mainly most of their early lives or childhoods. Essentially the only thing they would remember would perhaps be the way they died or a few years of their life before the deed was done. It was unknown to the scientists whether or not the REBOOTs would still be able to understand feelings such as love, hate, and fear. Their research on them was not fully complete when it came to this since this group was their first successes. As a safety procedure, the chips that were implanted on their brains had another feature to them. If one of the REBOOTs were to ever cause danger to themselves or humans belonging to their own side, they would be immediately shutdown.

Though, there is a little twist in this story.

The scientists and researchers who made this project a success, have had their own plans all along. They only truly needed the governement for the funding. They made them believe that the REBOOTs were going to be used for the military purposes only. Though, in reality, the REBOOTs were going to be used by their creators to turn over the government. The REBOOTs powers were built specifically to hinder the weapons and armies of the U.S. government. With all of their hopes in hand, the scientists and researchers of project REBOOT have planned a massive attack on the U.S. In order for the U.S. to prepare for this attack, the government as recruited an elite four of it's greatest members of the armed forces. Their weaponry and specialties vary. It is believed that these four soldiers along with their fellow troops, they can stop the REBOOTs and their creators from taking over the U.S. and even the world.



    [ S U M M A R Y ]
    This is for those who either just didn't really get anything I just said, or who are just trying to review and re-cap on everything. So, this is the jist of it:

    It's about a project with beings called REBOOTs that are being researched and built for the U.S. government. There are eight people, aged about 16-30, who have been brought back to life after their untimely deaths. They have been brought back with modifications to their original bodies. They have been made faster, stronger, and smarter in order to fight with the military against other nations. The government sees them as its secret weapon. Unfortunately, their minds kept at least a small portion of their memory. They will remember how they died and perhaps even a few years back from that. No tests have been done to test out their personalities and thought processes yet. So, to the scientists, they may very well be able to still feel love, anger, and fear. But, if they so get out of hand, there is a chip implanted in their brains to shut them down forever.

    But, the scientists and researchers decided to build the REBOOTs in order to overthrow the U.S. government. The REBOOTs have been specifically designed to fight against the U.S. armed forces. Knowing this fact, the government has recruited four of their best soldiers from the armed fources. Their talents vary but are vast in greatness. It is said that with these four Elite soldiers and their fellow troops, they can defeat the REBOOTs from taking of the U.S. and even the world.

    I would hope that by seeing at least the picture at the top of this thread, you would have recognized that this is an advanced literate roleplay. This doesn't mean that I want twenty paragraphs fully of descriptive words that no one has ever even seen before. Like many have said before me - "Quality over quantity". I would love it if everybody stuck to this policy. Although, I would just love it if posts could have a minimum of four paragraphs. I'm sure that everyone can write at least that much, even if they're on an off day. Also, being an advanced literate also means that you are creative and use words with style.

    »[ P O S T S ]
    When posting, please use font sizes 9-11. Nothing larger than that! It makes things look bulky and unorganized. You are allowed to spice up your posts a bit and make them look all fancy with post formats as well. Just, make sure you don't stretch the pages for anyone. Do not use chatspeak when posting. If you talk out of character please use something to indicate that such as: (), [], or --. Chatspeak is okay to use in the OOC though. But, don't let it be overly obsessive though, okay? I don't really want to see leet talk ten times while you post in the OOC. I might have to verbally shoot you if you do.

    »[ A T T E N D A N C E ]
    It would be really awesome if this could be a long-term roleplay. I know that most do have lives outside of Gaia and all, but please try to post at least once every three days. If you are going to be longer than that, please let me know either in the OOC or PM me if need be. And, if you truly must drop out, please let me know instead of randomly just dissapearing into thin air. I would rather a person just come right out and tell me that they will be leaving the roleplay.

    I'm pretty sure that most of us already know that you have to follow the Gaia TOS. But, for this roleplay, there will most definately be violence. Romance will be involved if it is so created between characters. But, a high maturity level is required here. I will not take dumb****s who think it's fun to cyber in a roleplay, god-mode, or act like a they have an I.Q. of fifteen. If I see any such acts of retardation I will immediately ban you from the roleplay. NOTE: All sorts of sexuality in this roleplay is welcome! There will be no discrimination whatsoever.

    »[ P R O F I L E S ]
    Please post your profile when you are completed with it in the OOC thread. I will either accept you or decline you entry into the roleplay. I will be taking several applications for each character. After maybe a few days I will post my decisions and the best profiles will be chosen. I will only allow people to reserve if I know them and trust them to do a good job in this roleplay. Otherwise, there will be none. You are allowed to have only one REBOOT character and one Soldier character. Though, you may have one of each. NOTE: Please use real-life pictures in your profiles. ABSOLUTELY NO ANIME!

    »[ G E N D E R ]
    I would like to have the gender ratios split evenly down the middle: four males and four females. I don't mind if a female plays a male character or a male plays a female character. For each of the characters listed later in the thread, they do not have a specific gender attached to them. Each character can be made into a female or male depending on your choice.

Once you have been accepted after sending me the background check, you can start filling out this character profile with the selected character of your choice. After you have finished filling it out, please post it in the OOC. Remember, you are going to be competing for spots, unless after a few days no one else shows interest in it, then it is yours. Try your best to be creative! No one likes a completely normal character.

[ THE SKY HAWK ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] - .Conviction.

Skyla's specialty is aerial assault. The mechanics inside of her have the ability to form large, metal wings, almost similar to a plane's, but with more curvature towards the ends. They allow for her to sail smoothly through wind and cut through almost any weather while in battle. They are light and very sturdy, which makes up for most of her armor that is almost non-existent. When need be, though, her body will cover itself entirely of a thin sheet of metal for protection, only letting her eyes be seen so she can look down upon the earth as she soars. She is incredibly fast up in the air, as she gives a fighter jet a run for their money. Though, she often won't go too fast for she has to save energy for her attacks.

The weapons she carries along with her include a long-distance shotgun to aim toward the ground for when she isn't too far up in the sky. But, for weapons for when she is up higher, she uses various bombs of any size. She also carries with her several aerial missiles to shoot toward other aircraft that might get in her way. Her tactics are best used for large groups and for one an army is cluttered together. Her abilities can also be used greatly when planning a surprise attack on the enemy.

Some of the other small modifications and gadgets that she has with her is a small tracking system that appears almost to be a watch on the top part of her wrist. It helps her plan out attacks and knows the positions of the enemies while up in the air. She has a built in radio control so she can talk to the other group members while she is up in the air and they are on ground. To help increase her speed and agility at times, the scientists put in extra boosters that will jet out from the soles of her feet when needed, giving her that extra need for speed.

Despite her great abilities in flying, weaponry, and speed, she does have some weaknesses. She may tend to run out of energy fast, causing her to make sure she watches what exactly she uses and for how long she is flying for. A small gauge is on her other wrist, opposite her tracking device for her to help keep under control her fuel levels. Also, she does have a certain limit as to how high up she can go, because of the pressure and strong pull of gravity. She does not have enough power as a lot of jets to burst through layers of the sky to reach incredible heights, even though she can go quite high herself. If she does happen to go too high in the air for her safe levels, she will begin to free fall, and will have to use extra boosters to bring her levels back up to normal. Another weakness of hers is the fact that she can't really do much on the ground level. While down on earth, she can't use many of her weapons except for her shotgun, which isn't as strong as her other weapons, leaving her at a disadvantage when she is in contact with near-distance combat. Her speed is slower and since her armor isn't very strong, she is more prone to injury.



[ THE TECHY ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] - MoonKitsune

Fike wasn’t made for being at the front lines or causing physical injury, which is why he sits in the back, directing the team and making sure as much as a disadvantage is given to the enemy. He’s a communicator, picking up on both orders from their own government and the other side. Constantly absorbing energy, he has various satellite hookups and radio transmissions installed in his body, meaning that even if a scrambling system is nearby, he can break through and still relay messages. Since he has to take in a lot of information at one time, his reflexes and ability to take in information is far greater than a normal human being.

Overall, he’s a living, breathing computer, wired to the core. There is no hookup he can’t attach to and no system he can’t crack, or find a backdoor. Usually, he can do this safely at a distance, backing up his information by resending it to a system of servers back home and doubled in another military base. His body is teaming with wires and computer chips, which require him to use a vast amount of energy at one time. Despite having a back up battery, it’s vital he does not stay in battle past that limit, else he could very well ‘power down’. It’s another reason why it’s also good that he remains with the doctor as well. There are also tubes of coolant working in his system to keep him from overheating, which would essential slow him down.

In the chance that he has to physically be around a computer system to recover information or take it down, he has sensors on the tips of his fingers and centered at his palm where he can make a connection and connect. From a compartment as his sides, he can take out various wires to also hook up to various computers at one time. Inside, he also has a tracking system to keep tabs on the other ReBOOTs and himself.

His eyes have a glassy sheen, and literally are pixilated, where he can unfocus out and catch images on his own eyes, either taking in what other members are seeing on their visors or blueprints sent out to him.
Since containing his body in pure metal would be unwise with so many sensitive electronics, he has a very thin layer of metal armor, which take care of the essential attacks: Bullets, knives, a occasional flying fist. Since he’s not made for battle, he has no weapons and if a gun was given to him, he’d have better luck shooting his own foot than someone else, no matter if they where 3 feet away from him. That and he’s not that big on being a killer, though he does get pumped communicating and directing his teammates, feeling as if he’s part of the action.



[ THE SPEED DEMON ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] -[ Evander ]

Agility is Tyler's primary weapon and no one can deny that. His body is capable of moving at incredible speeds, around forty miles an hour at its highest, and can continue at that speed for roughly forty five minutes or so. The materials his body is made from are able to withstand the tremendous amounts of friction that they experience while he is running, so his feet setting ablaze while out on the battle field isn't a possibility. Along with this, his eyes were designed to be able to see perfectly while running, allowing him to keep his eyes wide open without experiencing blur or having them affected by the wind.

Tyler's style of fighting is a rather interesting one. Assassin-like would be a good word to describe it, as he eliminates the enemy in the quickest and most efficient way possible. This holds true most of the time, except when he decides to toy around with his enemy to confuse or scare them. He will continue this until he gets bored of his target and finally slays them. The disadvantage of his methods is that when faced with a large group of enemies, it can be tougher for him to take them all down as fast as he likes. Luckily, his armor, despite its light weight, protects him fairly well and prevents the majority of bullets from piercing his surface, which is vital in those situations.

The amount and types weaponry Tyler owns isn't as large or as wide as the arsenals some of the other REBOOTs pack, but what he does have is extremely effective for the way he fights. His favorite weapon is custom made for him, and consists of two parts, a small retractable spinning rod in his hands and dangerous disks that can cut through the air at high speeds. The disks are placed on these spinning rods and then spin until he releases them. Once released, the disks sear towards wherever he aimed them until they reach the enemy, where they rip through their body. They then change shape to resemble a small boomerang and return to Tyler's hand, where they revert to their original form. The disadvantage to this weapon is that if their flight is interrupted, he has to retrieve them by hand and that his ammo is limited to eight disks(four for each hand).

His remaining two weapons aren't as complex though. The first is a pair of black pistols that he is able to meld with his body so they don't slip from his hands and the second is a set of sharp talon-like claws that replace his finger tips when he has to resort to close range combat. They aren't extremely dangerous, but they're better than a regular fist.



[ THE GROUND KEEPER ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] - Zellithe

My skill is with the Earth entirely. without it, i have no skill-- big, fat period. What i can do with soil feels like magic. I can submerge within it without any damage at all. why'd i want to do this? Well, when you're always in the thick of battle not only does the ground serve as a shield, but its the enemy of your enemy. I can burrow deep in the ground and set up bombs that are heat sensitive, motion sensitive, or are traditional in the effect that they are timed and go off after about three minutes. Setting up these little contraptions are easy, though i don't really like to. I'm more of a passive kind of chic, y'know?

Anyway, that's not the only thing i can do. This armor is real strong and can sustain a lot of pressure. of course, if i dared step foot in water, not only would i most likely rust after awhile, but i'd probably sink like a damn boulder. It's a little sat, but i can only spend a short while in shallow water.

Wait, before you think of me as the slow tortoise with a single cute trick, you better pay close attention to the weapons which i keep hidden away in myself. I'm my own ploy and heavy drill. there's no need to go around a mountain when i can drill through it within a few minutes.



[ THE SEA HAZARD ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] - Frozen.Particles

I have the ability to breathe underwater without oxygen. I doen't have any lungs. Inside my chest, near my ribcage I has stored torpedoes and bombs which I can launch off at any given time underwater. I am able to withstand great force of pressure. Although too much pressure can destroy me, and that would be no good at all. I can't go too far into the deep it sort of suffocates the life that I don't have out of me.

As I can stay underwater I have a special ability that allows me not to rust. How good would I be if I rusted? If I rusted I would no longer be useful. As for my speed I am pretty fast. I can outrun a speedboat if I had to. There are very few watercraft I can't. This ables me to maneuver out of the way of things that could hurt me. My armour is lightweight so not to sink me, but strong enough to withhold quite a great force.



[ THE DOCTOR ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] - ^ ~ A S H I ~ ^

Since Linn is a doctor, she has to store a lot of remedies in her head for easy reference. Her mind is amazingly quick, sharp, and able to remember things from a long time ago. Linn's brain had been altered by the scientists so it's nearly impossible for her to make mistakes. She also works very well under timed pressure, often finishing a task without even breaking a sweat. Linn can also move very quickly during an operation: fingers flying, and eyes glazed as if she was caught in a rapture. And before you knew you, her patient was cured. This is rather remarkable considering her young age, but hey. She's not a real human anyways.

Her mind is a virtual medical library: the scientists embedded a tiny chip in her brain that helps her remember her remedies. Though her mind is amazing, it is not without flaws. She can easily search through her computer-like brain to find cures in an instant. However, for that tiny instant, her eyes blank out and she becomes oblivious to the world around her. If you blink, then you'll miss it. But that instant might mean everything. That is the biggest flaw that she has.

After finding the remedy, Linn sets immediately to work with no words. There are vials of medicine stored inside her body, and a needle can come out of the tip of her right index finger to inject them. There are also 2 special vials: one full of deadly poison and an empty one. The poison vial is used for injecting it into an enemy in desperate situations (think of it like a hidden knife). However, this is rarely used. The empty vial is used to remove poison and for tests. Also, Linn has the ability to update a REBOOT's system. These updates are automatically sent form headquarters to another small chip in a brain, and these are given to the REBOOTs via a thin concealed wire that can come out of the tip of her left index finger. She could be considered the ultimate doctor: there is most likely nothing that she can't fix. There are even extra spaces in her databank so she can update herself with the latest sicknesses and medicines.

Linn is not much of a combat fighter, preferring to stay on the sidelines of a fight. Maybe she can defend for a few minutes against one opponent, but when time comes, she's best not to be on the battlefield. Weaponry...ehh. She'd probably fly backwards after firing a gun because of her slim figure. Her armor, to put it bluntly, sucks. I can probably withstand 1-2 bullets before it disintegrates into a million pieces. A thin piece of metal covering her vital parts is not much of an armor, anyways.



[ THE CLOSE-RANGER ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] - [.Euphoric.]_Overdose -

The Close-Ranger is true to his namesake; he is adapted for close-ranged combat. He moves in close, to where his superhuman strength, speed and stamina are suited to perform their best against their human adversaries. For this reason, he is more inclined to move in and mix it up with his adversaries, whether it be a single opponent or multiple, he excels where the punches are thrown and kicks are brought home, decimating his human opponents with an almost careless ease. He is better equipped for brawling, but can outlast most in close-range firefights.

He presses home the advantage of his immense staying power; his armor is sophisticated and durable, supplementing his already formidable stamina twice over. It is his ultimate defense and is only somewhat less penetrable than the steel skin of the Demolition. His bone marrow (again, like the Demolition) was hollowed out and replaced with a durable liquid metal, which hardens into a super-tough alloy within moments after contact with oxygen, which appears to be the nameless steel’s anathema. This advanced, fluid-like alloy languidly bubbles out of his pores and spreads across his skin like a thin sheen of onyx sweat, encasing his body in supple, yet unbreakable protection of a metallic shell. Though he can meld this nameless metal to sheath various and individual limbs, it is not without its price. Use of the “Ultimate Shield” taxes the tiny, subatomic generators incorporated into his steely form greatly–the sophisticated armor is hardly fuel-efficient–the Close-Ranger may only keep it active for twenty minutes of continuous usage, or risk depleting his stores of fuel and possible death as a consequence.

The Close-Ranger was bred the all-out mêlée, which is where he reigns supreme over his adversaries, one or many, they all fall before his robotic might. However, he would be just an automaton if it weren’t for the multitude of weapons secreted away within his revamped body. Hidden inside multiple compartments carved from his “flesh”, are enough firearms to supply a standard-sized platoon; ranging in size and caliber, from two 9mms stowed in his thighs, to the fearsome M61 Vulcan cannon housed within his upper back, and moves to above his left shoulder, prepared to fire. Though firearms are sublimely devastating, two advanced weapons bear honorable mention. Hidden in the roof of his mouth, is a cleverly concealed nozzle, which (upon command) emerges from between his lips–this is the infamous “Hellbreath”–a miniature flamethrower designed by Dr. Roth himself, which the Close-Ranger uses to incinerate his foes in a cleansing inferno. His hands, already formidable tools of ruin, have their lethality further enhanced by another sophisticated weapon built into each. Known simply as the “Disruption Fields”, these miniscule force field generators create a powerful anti-matter field, which (in essence) dissolves anything it comes into contact with. A simple, child-like motion triggers them: the Close-Ranger must simply clap his hands to use these potent weapons. But, these weapons are so dangerous that the Close-Ranger refrains from utilizing their destructive wrath. He fears those “Disruption Fields”, and for good reason.

The Close-Ranger was gifted with colossal strength; which is offset by his great weakness. The Close-Ranger is not the fastest REBOOT alive, the Speed Demon holds that title, and the CR pales in comparison with his deathly agility. His hands are magnificent, while his feet are not so much. With so much artillery built into his body, even his cybernetic strength is hard pressed to start him running, he has to have time to build momentum, like a charging rhinoceros, before he can run at his full speed of 12 miles an hour. The “Ultimate Shield”, even though it provides a nigh-impenetrable defense, has an immense weight, adding further strain onto his already taxed body, which is another reason for its moderation. If an enemy has enough mobility and explosives, they could destroy the Close-Ranger with relative ease; even the ultimate defense won’t hold out forever, especially against high explosives. His second, and possibly more damning weakness is that his “Disruption Fields” sometimes do not deactivate on command, and can injure his comrades.[/




[ THE DEMOLITION ]
[ O P E N ] [ C L O S E D ] [ A P P L I E D ] -Markition Necrovius

Demolition has been modeled for warfare and battle. He's the heavy guns, the big cahoona that is called out to wipe out the enemy forces before they can even get close. He can stand aerial assaults and close attacks, but his speed makes him a long range fighter himself. To support all the weaponry hidden inside is 'flesh', his bone marrow has been drained away and replaced with titanium alloy. Who needs marrow when there's no blood to supply with red blood cells? His first line of armor is the strongest, running along the surface of his skin, but he was also equipped with a second line of protection that can spread just under his skin, a weaker second layer of armor. It helps for those really big bomb blasts that he has no hope of running away from. There is a state of the art targeting system implanted into his left eye, though it can't be seen by anyone just looking at him. His spinal cord is also quite the piece of work; once the vertebrae were replaced with the same titanium alloy as his marrow, two channels were built in running parallel, right up and along his spine. Stored in these channels are two thin slits of metal, built almost like a close-fitted chain to bend along with his spine. On command they will emerge from his lower back and act as supports, hitting the ground and immediately straightening their links as to become unbendable. With these out he can use the really big guns and not be thrown back by the massive recoil of them (because if he does get thrown back, he's gonna end up falling over, and let's just say he has the same problem with getting up as a turtle has with flipping over). A walking, living tank, he is slow moving but has the long range to make up for it. His armor is one of the heaviest out of the group, affording him protection that he needs, due to his lack of speed. His intelligence is increased, though not by much- enough to make him superior, sure, but he's the Demolition. He doesn't have much of a need for smarts. Reflexes, weapon know-how, and the ability to follow orders are all the mental skills necessary to what he does. And he's happy with that- he always liked things simple.

[ JUNE 17 ]
    OOC is now open!
    THE FLYER is taken by the thread creator, .Conviction.



[ JUNE 18 ]
    It has been decided that in the plot, the REBOOTs will fight for the scientists and researchers who created them against the U.S. government who funded the project.

    Also, I have decided to make characters available to act as soldiers who are fighting against the REBOOTs. I will make a seperate profile sheet for them as well. You may have two characters in this roleplay. So, if you wanted to have a character fighting for the U.S. governemtn, you may do so.

    I have accepted [ Evander ] to be The Speed Demon.



[ JUNE 20 ]
    Updates have been made in the profile section, the plot section, and the rules section. Please re-read them and make sure to notice the new additions of information. I have provided information about the new characters available known as the "Elite Soldiers". Thanks to [ Evander] for giving this idea so that we won't have to fight NPCs the whole time, there will be two sides to the story.

    Also, there were some more people accepted into the roleplay:
    Zellithe - The Ground Keeper
    Frozen.Particles - The Sea Hazard
    Markition Necrovius - The Demolition

    The Close Ranger, The Techy, and The Doctor characters are still under speculation.
    It was decided that the Close Ranger will now be a male character due to the need to have equal gender ratios.

    Also, if you noticed, I put up the links to the Character thread and the IC thread. The IC thread is completed and awaits for posting when we start. The Character Thread is still under construction. I am waiting for more profiles to come in until it is completed. So, don't worry if your profile is not there, yet. It will be soon!



[ JUNE 26 ] - NEW!
    The roleplay has officially started! Everyone so far has done great jobs with their posts and I am impressed by them. ^^;;
    Good job, guys! Keep it up!

    Also, all spots are currently either filled or are in the process of being filled. I am still waiting for the profiles for the Elite Soldiers as of now. For those who have applied for those positions, if you could please get those profiles into me as soon as you can, that would ge great. xD;; Currently, your spots are saved until further notice or if you fail to give me your profile by next Monday. By then your characters should have a role and you will need to start making posts.

I am planning on joining but it may take some time.
My profile may not even be sent until tomarrow....well, do you have any recomendations for character positions??

Offline
Ah, I see.

Well, for character positions.. Hmm..
Besides the Flyer, I like the The Speed Demon and The Techy.
Just whichever you think would be more fun for you I guess. ^^;;

You don't have to worry about reserving or anything though, since I'm accepting multiple profiles for each one and such.

EDIT: Remember though! You have to send in a background check first.
