You are walking down the streets of NYC. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. In your hand is a flyer that is actually all around town. You see your destination up ahead. A normal looking comic book store called "J&G's Comic". This comic book store is run by twin brother and sister. Inside, it looks pretty normal too: oth brother and sister are behind the counter, employees helping customers. You go up to the front desk where you show the owners the flyer, which advertises a way you can get super hero costumes, or become your own. The owners smile and invite you behind the counter, where there is a door. Behind the door is a staircase leading down. You think nothing of it, or at least, not until you see where the stairs lead. For this comic book store is not your ordinary store. Below the store is a gigantic room split into two by a concrete wall. There are no windows, only a door in the wall. Behind that wall, is a laboratory. The twins, Jordan and Gordon, are greedy geniuses. They turn unsuspecting people like you into superheroes. Why? Because they get money for selling you to whatever country pays the highest. Because what country wouldn't love having freaks with superhuman powers as soldiers? You don't really get a say in what hero you become. After the experiment, you lose your freedom. You get taken into one of the jail cells that line the walls of the other half of the room.
The jail cells themselves aren't much. You get a cot, a bathroom full of items prearranged. The door to the cell is made of a special glass substance that can withstand any powers, or so they say. No one has been able to escape.
In the middle of the second half of the room, is a chamber made of the same material as the jail cell doors. This is where all the experiments are allowed to interact. There's one TV. and some games. Not much there.
Enjoy your stay at J&G's Comics. You'll be there for a long time.

 ™ Important Characters ™
What would this roleplay be without the two most important characters? The twins who own the place right? If no one wants to be them after a bit, I'll just dub them NPCs; but I would really love to have the twins played by actual people, the same person if you want. I'll leave their appearances up to you, but what you need to know is that their names are Jordan and Gordon Malone and that they are 35 years old.
And before anyone even escapes from the facility, I would love to have some goons. It just wouldn't be fun for some people to get free without someone trying to bring them back in and hunting them right?

 〖 Important Information 〗
The cells that our dear captives are held in are made to make any power totally useless. So if you have the power to walk through walls, you cannot do that in the cells. Teleportation? Won't get you out of the cell either. Superhuman strength? Not going to work either. You get the picture?
The thing about the goons, they were experimented on willingly. They like what the twins have been doing, so they act like guards.
If your character has a power to control others, use it on NPCs only please. I do not want to get complaints from people saying 'So and So took control!'. And I would really like not see any profiles that have the character given the powers of a 'God' or something okay?

Silence. Silence. Silence. And yet more silence. Enough to drive a person crazy. One such person who could have been driven crazy by the silence if she had not been used to it was sitting in the 'common room' as she liked to call it. The one place where all of them were allowed to mingle with each other, instead of being hit by a employee for lingering and fraternizing. A big no no for the institute. There could be no possible chances for planning an escape. An escape from where you ask? Hah, the person sitting could tell you all about it. Unless you could get a hint from the massive wings that grew out of her back, which were currently folded around her as she rested her back against the 'glass' walls of the container. One arm was draped over the bent knee. The other was folded in her lap. Her eyes were closed, head leaning against the wall as well. The only movement she would make was a slight flinch or jump as she heard random noises. One never knew exactly what those noises meant in the institute.

Quiet as ever. Just like regular. In this place, It was almost always quiet. Except...for when they experimented of course. Either way, Rick rested his head on the torn up bed. He needed to escape soon as possible. But of course, Who had ever escaped? No one. What was his chances? He crossed his arms around his chest. He couldn't believe he was still living. This had to be by far, the most boring place in the universe. He sighed and closed his eyes.

With a sigh, the winged female stood up and stretched. Seemed like none of the other experiments were wanting to wander into the common room at the moment. She banged on the wall to draw the attention of one of the traitors, what she called the people who were the opposite of her, who willingly became an experiment. They were allowed more privliges than the girl and other victims. Like not having to be restricted to the common room or a cell. Like getting decent meals. Like getting first dibs on freelance jobs.
The traitor slid open the door and grabbed her roughly, not caring if he almost caught a wing in the closing door. MJ knew better than to comment or back talk. Oh sure, when she was in one of her moods she would. Let someone else beat her up instead of herself over what she had done. That's all she had been able to do really. That or help the newcomers. But she wasn't in the mood to be backhanded, so she stayed quiet as she was led back to her cell.

I opened my eyes. It felt like hours had passed, but it were just minutes. "Why cant they just hurry up and do something with me. I'd rather do evil than sit here all day." I thought. I stood up and shouted. I wanted to go into the common room. Perhaps someone would be there. Perhaps I would be un-lucky as like every other day. The goon led me to the common room. I looked blankly around the room. No one was here. Sadly, I sat down. I thought for a moment. "Perhaps I'll wait a bit."
