[size=1][list]"Who's to say I'm not God?
Whatever I want I get. Whatever I dream becomes a reality. Whatever I do is looked upon as divine.
The world is mine to save."
-Michael McKline[/list]

[list]?Michael McKline was admitted to an asylum on December 18, 2054. During the period of 2030-2053, McKline murdered a total of seventy people in the name of salvation, believing himself to be God. He "accepted their sins and sent them to my [McKlines] domain, heaven." He felt no remorse. He felt no pity. All that he did feel was infinite omnipotence and a duty to save. He killed to save the souls of those he deemed, dirty.

?His methods were cruel at best. McKline would capture the victims using a kind of illegal nueral suppressant to knock out the victim. He'd transport the person to his home, via a large van, and chained them to a cement wall in his basement. For the next week to a month, he'd feed them only enough to survive on. He brainwashed them, constantly giving sermons to the nature of him being God, and the only p[ath to salvation was to be killed by him. He would whip them, burn them, cut off pieces of their bodies and feed it to them, scald them with boiling hot water, impale them with hundreds of acid-tipped needles, until they begged him to kill them, to save them, to liberate them from the accursed flesh they were imprisoned in.

"I remember most clearly a Mrs. Dianne Laine. I preached to her for nearly a month and a half." He laughs. "She could not understand that I was her God, here to educate and illuminate her. She even broke free once." He pulls up his sleeve to reveal a large jagged scar. "Cut me with a fork she did. I had to damn her for that. The first true commandment, is thou shall not dispute thy God. I injected her with an acid compound that ate her sinful flesh from the inside out." He shakes his head. "She's with Lucifer now."

?On December 25, 2054, McKline disappeared from the asylum he was in. He had been locked in a windowless, ventless room. He was fed oxygen through a small hole no larger than a centimeter across. The security video shows him there one minute, and gone the next after a blinding blue light rips across the screen. Officially, the case is still open, but no one really expects to find him.[/list]

-July 13, 2157,
Temporal crimes have been on the upswing. Since the invention of time travel, something supposed to be used strictly for historical observance, there have been several alterations of history. There are few records of actual history that remain. Those are locked in temporal chambers and exist outside of time, therefore they cannot be changed by the alterations made. The ones we know about are the extinction of the dinosaurs was prolonged several million years, allowing for partial primate evolution, and the coexistence of he two for several hundred thousand years until there was a plague that killed all the large dinosaurs off.
Hitler was assassinated as a child by an extremist Jewish faction that stole the technology. They eluded the police somewhere into post Ramsus Egypt.
A group of terrorists got a hold of some of the technology and used it to go back and destroy several very important religious figureheads of the late 20th century.
Several more have been committed, but no one is sure what they are yet. A group of individuals has been injected with a dose of temporal nano-machines. They give off an anti-temporal signal, removing them from the proper flow of time. They are unaffected by the changes. It's their job to track down the terrorists and interrogate them to find out what changes they've made, and fix them. For nearly twenty years, they worked, fixing history and preserving the present. They had it nearly complete.

Michael McKline was stolen from his cell by a cult dedicated to the worship of him and founded by a past 'disciple' of his, the only one that ever got away, or was he set loose? The man, Dennis Alecsen, founded a cult in the year 2060. It grew and grew until someone got the big idea to go and steal him with a time machine. It worked, he was removed from his time and transported into the future, 2136. Michael McKline died in the year 2156. His mind was preserved and hooked up to what his cultists deemed the "God-Game". He exists in a world of his own design. Anything he can imagine, he gets. During the time he was with the cult, several members were instructed to go to different spots in time and wait. Time [i]is[/i] relative. When he died, they were instructed to act and carry out their terrorism, completely messing up history again.

If they remove the mind, it dies. The only thing the 'Time Police' can do it hook themselves up to the machine and interrogate the man from the inside. The world is made to be made. Anyones mind can affect the world, but McKline has had control for so long, it's almost complete. The going will be very tough, but they have their training, and their minds.

A very simple signup. I don't want anyone to spend too much time on theirs. This game is going to take place in a kind of constantly shifting environment. One time it might be a medieval period and the next a world in nuclear winter. It will use a chapter system, but everyone will be in play at all times. The chapters will separate the changes in the world.

Everyone will be playing the part of a "Time Cop".

Thanks. Questions are always welcome, but I'm going to make an Underground thread probably tomorrow.[/size]

[B]Name[/B]: Angelica Moss

[B]Age[/B]: 21

[B]Appearance[/B]: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/PicKitty/scrapper.jpg[/IMG]

[I]--Notes about Appearance: Hair color is brown with blonde tips, eye color is green and uniform is standard blue and grey. (She's wearing a "Time Cop" uniform instead of the warrior.. thing).--[/I]

[B]Bio[/B]: Angelica was born to a young business man and a lovely housewife. She got standard education and her homelife was peaceful. She made lots of friends and was top of her class. But at the young age of 29, her mother was murdered, for reasons unknown. Her father was accused and found guilty of his wife's murder, and was sentenced to jail to await the death penalty.

Angelica, determined to find the person who ruined her family, dedicated herself to her school work. This alienated her from her old friends, but led her to meet other students who had the same passion for studying as she did. Some called them nerds, but they were actually quite normal. Just smart.

They were a group of 7 until some went to different universities. But Angelica and two others, Stuart and Loretta, stayed together. Angelica grew very close to Stuart and they started dating soon after they began their first year at their university. Loretta grew jealous and disappeared soon that year.

From there, things only got worse.

Stuart broke his back in a car accident two months after Loretta vanished. He was confined to his hospital bed. Angelica could only stand by and watch. Her foster parents' small business went bankrupt and they were forced to sell their home and get an apartment in the dismal part of town. Her grades began to slip and she nearly got kicked out of her university.

She later got taken hostage in an odd crime at a bank. Luckily, she managed to fight all of the men inside and get away with nothing but a few cuts and scrapes. The police force picked her up and entered her in an expiramental program that was designed to protect the original history.

She was only 19.

From there, she trained for two years to become a Time Cop, and already she is one of the best.

She uses her head in almost all situations. But she's still human, so emotion does get in the way at times. Her determination to be the best can get her into sticky situations, but her cooperation with teammates is a quick fix to any and all temporary "backfires".

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][SIZE=1]Name: John
Age: 26
Appearence: [IMG]http://server2.uploadit.org/files/BurningGundam-Godgamecharacter.jpg[/IMG]

John is athletically built with a slight tan due to his constant time at the beach surfing. His hair is a shaggy blonde and is about mid-length because he really just forgets to get hair cuts. His eyes are and emerald green. When he was younger John's mother told him that his eyes were that color from the "strong Irish bloodline."
At his full height, John stands about six feet five inches. Also he has a long scar from his right side of his forehead down to his chin.

Biography: John was raised in a middle class working family with two older brothers. His mother was a nurse at the county hospital and his father was a lawyer fresh out of law school.

Now this life may have seemed normal and it might to an unwary eye. John's father was a heavy drug addict, especially to a drug that would cause fits of utter euphoria without the side effects of the more primative things such as Methamphetamines, Marijuana, Crack Cocaine, etc. this drug was much more potent and too much of it could cause a self-induced fit of schitzophrenia, this happened once and John was the target of it that time and he walked away with a long gash down the right side of his face. He nearly lost his vision had it not been for his mother managing to knock his father out and getting him to the hospital where they performed a surgery to repair the damage to the best of their extent, this resulted in John's eyes becoming more vibrant green for awhile, when his father saw this he said that his son was a sort of demon.

After a few months, John's mother finally reported his father for child abuse and illegal drug activity. He was arrested and as he was being taken away he said when he got out he'd be back for them. That never happend, within a week of being in prison, John's father was killed in a prison brawl.

When John grew up he became an upbeat kind of person, but he usually doesn't like people staring at his scar, though its his most distinguishing feature some people say, others say its his eyes; either way he is very shy about showing his scar. He decided he wanted to help people that should have been helped and saved, he became a Time Cop. Now his first major case has to deal with one of the most sadistic murderers right up there beside Hitler and his torture methods.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

Name: Eric Tudor

Age: 27

Apperance: [IMG]http://www.stoned.com/jared/photos/requiem/0101.jpg[/IMG]

Eric stands around 5' 11", sometimes appearing shorter due to a lazy slouch he habitualy developed through his teenage years. An unusually tawny man he hardly trains his body for strength moreso than he trains for flexibility.

Biography:

Eric Tudor came into the world alone one cold January morning, Natural Timeline era 1976. His mother, a "free-spirited" woman of her age, died giving birth to him, and his father was nothing more than a memory and a name to those that knew of his mother's assignations with the man. With no immediate family or close friends willing to take the child of one condemned a hippy, Eric (given his father's name) was given to a small orphanage tucked in a dirty little corner of New York city commonly called St. Luke's Orphanage.

The child was raised in this time by Sister Angela Tudor, a young nun who took to loving the child, as if he were her own. She taught him things of faith, loyalty, and forgiveness, enlightening the young boy. Although her intentions were true, the violent world that grew around Eric would soon prove to swallow him.

As a teenager, Eric became somewhat of a delinquent, such as running with gangs, spending endless nights becoming wasted and dissapearing for weeks on end. Yet he always returned home to Sister Angela, and worked hard at his studies always aiming to make her proud. Eric lived two seperate lives it seemed, a young man with good intentions who exposed himself to the violent world around him. An odd lifestyle, but one that suited him somehow.

When Eric turned eighteen, his "foster mother" Sister Tudor became deathly ill. He began to spend more time at the orphanage, staying by her side, and quietly prayed when he had a moment to spare. Despite the prayers, Angela Tudor passed away, and Eric was once again left alone. Taking Sister Angela's last name as his own, Eric set out to change his life, doing something he knew that would make the sister proud, he would work for the good of the world, and work for the law.

Eleven years passed since then, and Eric did well to make those who knew him proud. He flew upwards through the ranks, with quiet determination, and a steel will that no one could rival. Eric was reckless, true, but he had skill. Skill that attracted a most unusual job proposition. He was interveiwed by the commanding officers of a department that called themselves the TPD, or the Temporal Police Department.

Without so much as a thought Eric accepted, feeling that he really had no other reason not to, it wasn't as if he had anyone to go home to at night.

Eric says little of his upbrining, if anything at all. He's not one to be overly social, and at most times keeps to himself. Although quiet, he does have a large reserve of willpower and determination on his side, and he can be a little gun-ho and reckless at times. But, taking risks is second nature to one that feels they have little left to live for.

[b]Name:[/b] Malcolm Kane

[b]Age:[/b] 44

[b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://www.cinecon.com/albums/albuo25/aal.jpg[/img]

Malcolm stands roughly 6'2" in height and weighs somewhere in the region of 85 kilos, he's athletically built though this comes as part of the job description. His clothing varies as per the mission requirements, the above picture was taken during an assignment in the early 21st century.

[b]Bio:[/b] ?Time is linear, like a piece of string, it has a beginning and it has an end. My job is to remove the knots in the piece of string, to bring it back to the way it should be, to the way it was in the beginning. I have met great minds, and greater evils, I have seen the changes occur before my very eyes, seen those recognisable centuries after their death flicker out of existence. I cannot say if the world is a better place because I do my job, some perhaps deserved to die before they would carry out there evils, however I am not the judge of that. I do my job, that is all there is to it, to un-knot the string, to keep things as they were so that things will be as they should.?

Malcolm Kane in linear terms was born July 2nd 2113, his family no longer exists due to alterations to the timeline, his ?father? is now married to a different woman and has a completely separate family, his mother was never born. Kane has worked as a ?Time Cop? for over a quarter of a century, in that time he has corrected both subtle and perceptible changes to the timeline, apprehended dozens of felons and ?un-knoted the string? in his own words. His work has made him one of the most recognised Time Cops in the business, this on occasion makes undercover work slightly difficult, he has no gripes about his line of work, it is what he is here to do.

Quiet by nature, Kane is one to act and then speak, and even then his actions speak far louder than his words. He has no taste for violence though if necessary his is willing to use it to apprehend a suspect. Though he is not overtly friendly, he does make gestures once trust has been earned, mostly stoical and down-to-business is character, he does have an underlying grief about the events surrounding his family. His work has possibly made him this way, his has experienced some many timelines and so many people it is hard to remember what his life was like before, the only personal effect he is known to keep is a holograph of his family preserved out of time.[/size]

[SIZE=1][B]Name:[/B] Daniel Reed

[B]Age:[/B] 28

[B]Appearance:[/B]
[IMG]http://home.no.net/stnorge/newspro/news_images/enterprise/connortrinnee_blaa_dress.jpg[/IMG]
Though Daniel has no scars on his face he does have them on the rest of his body. Mostly on his torso, though it's mainly near his ribcage or back. He has a somewhat famous "barbeque" scar in the middle of his back from when he and his brother had a fight at a barbeque and his brother scarred him with a hot metal stick.

[B]Bio:[/B] Daniel Reed was once known as Daniel Williams when his parents were married. He had a half brother whose dad married Daniel's mother, and then Daniel was born. As a child he grew up in a small house that was in a pretty quiet area, though Daniel had a rough childhood anyway. His brother, Robert, was a bully. He was 5 years older than Daniel so he always had the advantage, but even if Daniel went to his mother about Robert she always thought Robert was just like his father and didn't listen. Therefore, Robert got everything and Daniel didn't get much. Daniel didn't have many friends and for most of his childhood he was determine to teach Robert a lesson, so he would normally find something to use as weights or train in secret. Even if he did this, Daniel was never a match for Robert. Robert was bigger, stronger and older, and it would always stay that way.

It was like Daniel and his parents had another life, because he soon found out himself that his mother had cancer. Though she died of it before Daniel could actually tell her he knew or even speak to her. After that, Robert was left with his father and half brother, were he lived a worse life. After the death of his mother Daniel felt more alone knowing that she died and he didn't even know at first. He hated his father and his brother, though the father was never around Robert always was. Because of Robert being a bully, Daniel was sick of this and decided to fight him back again. When he was 14, Daniel had a fight when his brother was doing a barbeque, causing both the brothers to set the back garden on fire and making a long scar on the back of Daniel along with many others. After that Daniel was sent to live with his mother's sister when his father had enough.

For the first time in his life Daniel had someone who he could talk to. His auntie was nice and encouraged him to work hard and give the best his could. Daniel later changed his name to Daniel Reed after his mother's last name and not his fathers. He decided to leave his past life behind and forget about it, then start a new one were he could work hard and become anything he wanted to be. His auntie didn't have a lot of money, but she spent most of it on helping Daniel. He then found out that one of his great, great, great (keep saying great until it get's to around 1999) was a Police hero who had his name printed in the papers many times over. And that was all the inspiration Daniel needed. He then decided to work all his life and become a Time Cop, so he could actually do something and not seem like his past life with his brother and father was affecting him. Daniel was 18 when he decided this, and ready.

So he left his aunt and trained to become a time cop, determine to actually be something in his life and not let his horrible brother or father stop him like they would want too. He didn't have any contacts with his aunt or any other family member since he became a time cop, but that didn?t matter because he knew that there was always the chance they could be erased from history.[/SIZE]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=2][COLOR=darkorchid][b]Name[/b]: Vera Leisteré

[b]Age[/b]: 25

[b]Appearance[/b]: [IMG]http://neuvoxraiha.250free.com/Mystuff/Tere4.jpg[/IMG]

[b]Bio[/b]: "My body is my mind and my mind is my body for there is no conundrum between the mind and the body. Separate the two, and they will be joined together again. Try to stop them from being one, and the screams will be shattering."

Vera lives in her head as easily as she lives in her body. As you can see, she's from a suburban home, and at one point, she was bent on living an utterly normal life. Unfortunately, the backyard you see in the picture is gone, the concrete beneath her feet has been shattered, and by her own hands, she tore down the wooden fences and set them on fire. Better to destroy her timeline and escape then let it simply be erased. Such is her way of thinking. The alterations in time were instantly compensated for by her mind, and her body was quick to follow. Somehow her body made the jump from her present to the new present. She has been instructed in the University on the methods of time, the ways to gaze upon it and through it, and for her, it has concluded that time is a parabola. It stretch back, curve here, and stretch forward. The points however, should not be marked up and marked down and switched. They all have their place, and Vera Leisteré will not tolerate any aberrations within the parabola of time.

The Temporal Police recruiter found her standing in a simulation of her home, and staring up at a sky that no longer exists. The officer extended his best wishes to her and asked her to join their team. She looked over her shoulder and agreed. With that she was trained, or trained as far as they could. But she was already prepared. She isn't aware of the extent of her abilities, or how far time can be stretched, but she is aware that to prevent her own land from disappearing, she will have to exercise her mind and her body and indeed, her spirit, before she can return to that "normalcy" that once was. At the University, she's hailed as one of the most inovative thinkers in the Mobius School. But that branch of study is still viewed as a bizarre and ultimately esoteric field.

Within the Time Cop force, she is not well known. She prefers it that way. Slide in, make the alterations, and slide out. Most who see her vaguely recall a swish of a black skirt, a brief flash of mocha colored skin, but then nothing at all. That is the way they've instructed her to operate, although they all know she is capable of so much more. Very few have witnessed her in full glory, but all who have are aware that when she so chooses, she can shatter minds as easily as a bullet shatters glass.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[b]Name-[/b] Allen Legent

[b]Age-[/b] 40

[b]Appearance-[/b]
[img]http://galeria1.terramail.pl/bruce/f/bw08-04.jpg[/img]

[b]Bio-[/b] Allen was born in a small city on the outskirts of St. Paul, Minnesota in 2117. He lived normally. Had a good mother and father, even a dog. They were never rich, but always had enough food and aways had hot water, power, and gas. He grew up in a reletively laid back atmosphere, and got invoved in drugs very early. He started on marijuana, eventually moving to more severe splicings of the herb. His father caught him.

He wasn't punished, at least not in the normal sence. His father, a person that grew up in a family that accepted occasional pot use, told him that he could continue using if he wanted to. He wouldn't love him any less and neither would his mother. But drugs inhibit the mind. If he wanted to be succeful, like his father, and keep a family, he'd cut it out of his life. Allen, wanting to become a scientist, did.

When he went into college at 18, he was drug free and had been for nearly a year. He lived up the college life. Learning. Drinking. Sleeping with women. And never doing drugs. He was at a party one day with a lot of illicit material, and illegal activity. Some of his very good friends were doing a lot worse drugs than pot. He begged them to stop and become like him, succesful and drugfree, but they wouldn't listen. The police crased the party, arrsting a lot of people. Several were put in prison, and were forced to become clean. His friends left prison new men and women.

He came to admire the police, and joined shorty after his father and mother died of natural causes. He moved up the ranks quickly, commanding his own St Paul precinct after about ten years. He was offered participation in a special program. It doesn't have a lot of publicity, but is extremely importat to the survival of the world. Allen was intrigued and came to the informational meeting. The TPD (Temporal Police Department) offered him a job as long as he'd leave his entire life behind, it will be made public that he joined the FBI and was assigned to a obscure part of the organization that is very secretive. He accepted, knowing all his friends would be happy for him.

Allen acepted, and joined the TPD.[/size]

[center][IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=21472[/IMG][/center]

[b]Bio-[/b]Born in Harlem, New York in 1962, Will was a product of the decade?s racial strife. His father was shot by police while protesting; his grieving mother was so distraught she couldn?t hold a steady job. Living on welfare was next to impossible, but they made do. Will was able to resist the temptation that ruined the lives of so many of his childhood friends, to drop out of school and make easy money selling drugs. He graduated at the top of his class, but wasn?t able to afford college.

Instead, he applied to and was accepted to the New York City police academy. He served with distinction for fifteen years, solving many crimes that?d baffled other detectives for years. After his successful capture of the ?Eyeball Killer?, so called by the press for his trademark of removing his victims eyeballs after death, Will came to the attention of the FBI. He became a profiler for the Bureau and continued his pattern of success for a further seven years.

Will retired from the FBI and became a private detective, but this didn?t last long. On the night of February 27th, 2007, a man wearing a trench coat approached him on his way home from the office. He offered a new life, new challenges, and a new opportunity to serve others. Will blew him off as crazy until he pushed a copy of the next day's [I]New York Times[/I] into his hands. Highlighted was a story about an airplane crash in which Will was listed as one of the deceased. Shaken, he refused to believe the stranger. He quickly got into his car and drove home, thinking no more about the incident.

The next morning he received a call, a family emergency had come up and he was needed in California, fast. After packing quickly and phoning his secretary about his plans, he took a cab to the airport and boarded the first flight to Los Angles.

Two hours into the flight, the first signs of trouble emerged. The pilot encountered heavy turbulence and lost all radio contact. Will began to worry, recalling the newspaper headline the stranger had shown him yesterday. The plane soon found the cause of the turbulence, a tornado was less than a mile to their left, and its fierce winds were buffeting the plane like a leaf. The pilot overcorrected and the plane plunged earthward.

As the passenger compartment erupted into chaos, it seemed to Will as if time had slowed. The stranger appeared next to him, and repeated his offer. Faced with little choice, Will accepted.

They both vanished in a flash of blue light.

The plane erupted into a burst of flame as it smashed into a Wheatfield. Very few passenger remains were ever located. [/color]

[size=1][b][color=dimgray]Name-[/color][/b] Abigail "Abby"

[b][color=dimgray]Age-[/color][/b] 27

[b][color=dimgray]Appearance-[/b][/color]
[img]http://www.serienjunkies.de/NCIS/ncis.jpg[/img]
Fourth from the left(the one with the black hair in pigtails). She's normally seen with her hair in a ponytail. Her usual attire consists of blue jeans and a black t-shirt with some kind of heavy metal band logo on it. She stands around 5'5'', has black hair and black eyes.

[b][color=dimgray]Bio-[/color][/b] Born March 27th, 2130, to parents of whom identities have remained unknown[color=slategray][b]*[/b][/color], Abby grew up in what was a normal neighborhood. Her parents were said to have been part of the local police enforcement. Whether that's true has yet to be determined, but nonetheless it is known that her parents had a great influence upon her behavior. Their constant insistence upon her to keep good grades in school caused her to withdraw from everyone and focus on studying.

[color=gray]By age 15 she was taking college courses. Some say she was a profound genius, while others seem to think she's insane, as she could always be found with a book on supernatural occurances on her. Had she accepted any of the offers she received to take IQ tests, people were sure that she would have scored well above that of a genius.

She became quite interested in her parents field of work[/color][b][color=slategray]*[/b][/color] [color=gray]when she was around the age of ten. It was about this time that she also began researching the paranormal, shortly after reading an article on crop circles in the newspaper. Soon she began studying the field of law as well as reading as much as she could on UFO's, aliens, crop circles, etc. Her research was so intense she completely lost all interest in most other things. Soon her only two interests seemed to be the supernatural and law. She had very compulsive urges to become a police officer of sorts after studying its field of work so much, that she finally followed her urge.[/color]

[color=slategray][b]**[/b][/color]At the age of 19 she attended a law enforcement academy and graduated two years later with high honors. Her adeptness in the field of law allowed her to quickly become a high ranking officer at the precinct in her hometown. After four years at the precinct, she attained a job as an undercover FBI agent. Her work hardly ever made mainstream news and if it did, she was never mentioned, obviously, as she was an undercover field agent. She preferred it this way, as that was why she took the job in the first place. She was very seldom seen not working on a crucial case and when she wasn't working, she was often seen reading some kind of novel involving the supernatural.

[color=gray]Then, when she was 27 years of age, an intriguing offer came her way. An offer to participate in a special program that only the "elite" officers were accepted into. The offer[b][color=slategray]***[/b][/color] stated that her "special skills" and "advanced knowledge" were needed and necessary to the success of the program. Looking at what her life was like, day after day, working on cases, reading any material on any kind of paranormal activity she could get her hands on, a realisation that she needed a change. Her life needed a change, she accepted the offer and was immediately transferred to work with the TPD.[/color]

[b][color=slategray]*Since her parents identities are unknown, no other information on them was ever available. She refuses to speak of her childhood for some reason, as well as her parents. Adding to that fact, she never gives out her real last name. She assumes a new last name wherever she goes and assumptions are that something involving her parents caused her to drop her last name and never refer to her parents again. She seems to have some kind of grudge against them and because of this, it has even been questioned whether or not "Abby" is the name that her parents gave to her.

Assumptions on the fact that her mother and father were police officers are all that has been given. If the fact was proved to be true, then her interest in law would become more clear.

**This information is the only information that has been proven to be true.

***The form that this offer came in is unknown at the present time. Discussions of how she was asked to join the TPD are rarely brought up in conversation, and if the subject arises, its quickly tossed aside and turned into a completely different topic.[/b][/color]

[b][color=dimgray]-Sounds like an awesome RPG![/b][/color]

[color=gray]EDIT: Changes instated. Hope its ok now.
EDIT II: All areas colored in [color=gray]gray[/color] are parts that have been re-edited. I've done my best to rewrite most of it, but unfortunately, I'm out of time on the computer and can't edit anything else. I do hope that its better now and is up to scratch.[/color][/size]

[size=1][font=veranda][color=indigo][b]Name-[/b] Ashleigh Anna-Maria Gordan

[b]Age-[/b] 25

[b]Appearance-[/b] [img]http://www.celebritydetective.com/estefan1.jpg[/img]

Ashleigh is usually seen with her hair down or held back with a bandanna, and her usual attire is faded blue jeans and a T-shirt.

[b]Bio-[/b] ?Don?t tell me what to do. I?ve taken enough ******** from my sisters, my brothers, and my parents; I don?t need it from you.?

Ashleigh was never really comfortable with her life, and being the youngest out of five made it very difficult. She, her two brothers, two sisters, mother and father, and grandmother, all lived in a small apartment together. Her mother worked 24/7, and her father was never home. Ashleigh and her sister learned how to cook, clean, and keep house from their grandmother, while the boys went out with their friends and to school and their day jobs. Ashleigh?s oldest sister (Gloria;30) never got along with the old woman, and they two were always fighting. When Michelle (their mother) would get home, tired and frustrated, the two would be all over her, forcing their opinions down her throat. It always led to loud fights, and they always ended with Gloria slamming her door on the way out and her mother crying on the couch.

Ashleigh was always quiet and tried to stay out of things, and when she would leave the house after the fights, Celia (grandmother) would always call her a coward, or yell at her. Ashleigh learned to ignore the rebukes, and once she was old enough, she moved out. The only person who ever really paid attention to the girl was her younger brother, Jonathan. He, now 19, felt the most sympathy for his older sister, and when he gets the chance and break from college, he visits her. Now that Celia has passed away, things are slightly calmer in the Gordan home. Ashleigh would visit occasionally.

The red-head is usually pretty quiet about her past, but sometimes she can be pried to tell. Her father, Ross, had begun to yell at her mother, and things were to tense for the children to be there. Her mother was pregnant again, and her father wasn?t happy about it. Jonathan being the youngest of all five, there were no children in the house, and the two adults live alone. Ashleigh was afraid for her mother; the woman did not want to lose the child, or adopt it out, and was crying harder than ever.

Ashleigh joined the Time Police as an escape from her vicious family, and (maybe) from herself. The woman is very quiet and closed, and she works best with Vera. That is, when the other will take her. No one spares her a second glance, and she?s glad for it.

Sounds fun! ^_^ Hope you don?t mind I added Vera in, Raiha![/size][/font][/color]

[size=1]Signups will be closing on Wednesday, 10:00pm Central Time.
I will be taking six people in. I'm not making any dicisions now, just letting all of you know that seven sounds like a fair number for the RPG, and even that isn't final.

Also, I can't remember who asked this, but he Chapter system will work the following way:
[list]Chapters will be divided by how and when the mindscape changes. Say, for instance, when we first go in it will look like New York 2004. That's chapter one. The next chapter, it might look like Ancient China, or England int he middle of nuclear winter.[/list]

I just think it'll be easier to determine how the landscape looks this way then by posting it in a post and possibly have someone miss is.

Is anyone still confused?[/size]

[color=teal][b][size=1][i]Name: [/i]Michael Smithson

[i]Age:[/i] 50

[i]Appearance:[/i] Distinguished graying hair, pudgy but certainly not unfit, Average complexion, average height, Perpetually wounded-looking eyes, stubble recognizable as a few days' not shaving.

[i]Bio:[/i] Unbeknownst to him until qite recently, his grandfather fell victim to McKline's ruthless, sanguinary proselytizing during the last century. Having already known of the story of McKline and his methods of conversion, Michael Smithson finds this fact astounding. Becuase of his obivous detachment form his late grandfather (being dead before one's birth aften causes such a detachment!) Smithson owes his recent interest in McKline's harrowing case to curiosity over a bloodthirsty vengefulness. Rather than seek an excuse to avenge his long-dead grandfather, Smithson's curiosity presses him to explore his queer connection to such a terrible "entity."

However, his connectoin to McKline does not stop with his dead grandfather. His 24year-old nephew long ago joined the cult devoted to McKline himself. Smithson had always disapproved of his nephew's actions, and long ago broke off all contact with him. But when reports of recent temporal terrorism placed his nephew as the leading suspect, Smithson decides to take a personal interest in McKline after all. In order to find his nephew, thinks Smithson, he must learn more about the foundation of the cult, meaning finding a way into McKline's mental dominion.

23 years ago Smithson's wife and newborn son disappeared, presumably as two of many people who each year fall victim to inadvertant chain reactions of temporal terrorists and the Time Force members who try to set things (reasonably) right. His losses drove him to become a Time Cop, and his thoughts occasionally drift around the idea of stealing a time machine to save his wife and son. He creates elaborate plans to do so as a way of coping with his grief. However, his relatively high position in the Time Force and his sense of duty keeps him from actually following through.

Um... I don't know what else to put. He's respected by enough colleagues to count, he lives alone in a modest condo on the 14th floor of a metropolitan structure... He... has good posture... or something. That's really all I can think of.
