Sign Up Darkness Falls: The Fall of Man [M-VSL]

[Kairi]

[CENTER]Year: 2200[/CENTER]

At the dawn of the 23rd century, mankinds technological advancements were beyond anyones comprehension.
- cures for every disease known to man; including cancer and aids.
- the perfection of A.I (artifical intelegence)
- space travel
- unlimited amounts of natural resources for earth and all its colonies due to advancement in the sciences.

Earth was at peace; there hadn't been any fighting, nor any full scale war for 7 years. All nuclear weapons were dismembered, unifying all of earth under a single government through the leadership of the President of Earth for 10 years; Micah Armago. Every country still had their national leaders, presidents, kings etc...but they all answered to Micah Armago.

Through this time of peace, there was no need for soldiers to serve in the military for combat. All weaponary research came to a halt by the the order of President Armago because of his policy for peace on earth and all its colonies.

Till now...

***
New Years Eve: 12:58pm 2200
***

As like ever year, millions of citizens gathered together in celebration within the walls of all the major cities of earth.

***We are now taking you live to New Berlin, where we are only two minutes away from the crystal ball being dropped. We all here at BBC...the Berlin Broadcasting Corporation, would like to congradulate all the citizens of earth for having such a successful year of 2200.

***The view is incredible from down here at the base of the Omega Health Instution...the tallest building in the world. Everyone is looking up at the ball as it prepares to decend upon the OHI's tower peek.

***The entire city is lit up in a marvelous setting of lights, fireworks, and yes...even candles now being held by some religious members wishing for yet another year of peace.

***Here it comes ladies and gentlemen....the hour we've all been waiting for...only 10 seconds away.............5.......4......3......2.......1......*

Suddenly the entire city went dark. All forms of power connected to the city grid were out...leaving no lights for people to see. With the fireworks dying down...all of New Berlin was blanketed in darkness.

(In a whispering tone)
***Its me...Katie King...reporting from New Berling.

''Are you still filming Dave?''

''Yea...the camera has its own battery; but the light is very dim.''

''Fine...thats good enough''

***Sorry...Katie King here. I don't know if anyone is watching this...the site which your looking at is incredible. All forms of light have gone down across what seems to be the entire city. People aren't in a panic...but they're just standing around. Still looking up into the sky speechless. The silence is actually un-nerving....''

About an hour goes by without nothing being said...then...

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A deafining scream erupts amoungst the crowd. Everyone is running around in circle...trying to escape the masses.

***OH MY GOD...OH MY GOD!...Dave...Dave where are you?''

No response...Katie turned around to see Dave's dead body lying on the ground with the camera still running on her.

(In a panic...too terrified to move)
***Oh MY GOD...whats going on?...they're bodies everywhere...

With corpses all around her...she circled in the same spot...trying to see if she could see anyone around...alive.

With her back turned...a massive, grey hand came out of the darkness and swept Katie off her feet. The camera couldn't see exactly what it was...only the screams of the tormented Katie as her flesh was wripped to screds...being tossed into the dark.

After a few minutes...the camera picked up a faint shadowy figure...then the picture went out.

***
Minutes later in London, England
***

''Mr. President...Mr. President...there's something I need to show you.''

''Not now Admiral, can't you see I'm showing my daughter the fireworks.''

From his coat pocket, Admiral Vega revieled a video tape.

''Sir...this can't wait.''

Moments later...in one of the many suites of President Armago's mansion. The admiral put in the video tape recording of BBC's New Years broadcast...showing what transpired above.

''My God in Heaven...'' proclaimed Micah...''notify the board.

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]It's been a month since that day...and similar attacks have been made in other populated and desolate areas. With these new events...Micah has had no choice but to reopen the world wide military to help control the situation.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]Unknown to President Micah; there has been an underground facility underneath the streets of New York City for years preparing for a time such as this.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]Full of scientists, researchers, inventors, and soldiers; the project known as Heaven, under the supervision of Commander Joseph Red of America, is now recruiting the most potential individuals on earth and on all of earths colonies to lead the team to learn, contain, and destory this new threat.[/COLOR]

--------------------------------------

Your mission is to search out and destroy all form of the paranormal that you come across. Everything from vampires, zombies, ghosts, witches, demons, and monsters will be incoperated into this; using a chapter system with gaps inbetween each mission to socialize and ultimitaly process information leanered through each encounter with the paranormal with what is going on on Earth.

I have a basic ideal where this will ultimitly lead too...but by all means...you can make this as creative as you'd like it to be. You will be the leaders of this team that goes out into the unknown...with the ones posting as well as other soldier who will come to some gruesome deaths:) I will be opening an underground as well if anyone has any questions or ideas. No one person will be the center of this...so make this rpg your own.

I hope your not afraid of the dark...

Your Greatest Fear:

[Meggido]

OOC: this RPG sounds awesome hope it gets up.

Name: Farel Sandivar (23)

Gender: Male

Home Planet: Mars

Apperance: see attachment. The guy below but with daggers instead of a sword.

Personality: Farel is the quiet, shy type but this is due to his haunting past which he does not want to revive. Though he is very reserved he does not like to be left alone. This also relates to his past. At times he can appear clingy but when it comes to action he is in there with no problems. When it comes to fighting, though he can use stealth, he is very reckless.

Bio: Farel was born on Earth, but at the age of 12 he and his family moved to the colony on Mars. At the age of 18 he was accepted into the new space exploration program. As it was unknown of what was out there that could be encountered he was trained in all fields of weaponry though he prefers to use rocket launchers and the new AK37.

As part of the program his genetics were modified so he could slip into the shadows if need be. Because of this new power he was moved from the sapce exploration program to the secret service. It was there that he met his fiance.

When the attacks on the Earth began, Farel took no heed to them. It was on Earth and not his problem. When the problem came to Mars he was involuntarily involved. As the city was attacked he was able to slip into the shadows but his fiance was not. She was killed in front of his eyes. Farel acted on the world Presidents plee as soon as he heard about it.

He looks for closure in any form it may come. Whether it be revenge or death he will find it. But what holds him back is his new found feeling of lonliness, and it scares him.

Weaponary: Ranged Weaponry - specialises in the use of rocket launchers but mainly uses an advanced, silenced version of the AK-47
Melee weapon - twin Daggers

Gift: Is able to blend in with his surroundings like a Chameleon

Your Greatest Fear: Being alone

OOC: PM me if this needs to be changed but wait until I finish it.

Personality: A joker. He has a black sense of humour, and it always comes out in times of great danger. He enjoys his job more than anything in the world, and takes great pleasure in disposing of the supernatural.

Bio: Born into a rich family, Lee developed strong psychic powers when he was a child. He was put into a specialist hospital, and given a psychic dampener ring around his head. This supressed his powers, but made him comatose until they could invent a new improved version.

They finally managed to invent one when he was fifteen, and he awoke from his coma. When he was twenty, he attended the fateful New Year's Eve party with his family, where they were all killed, except him. This forced him into a month-long depression, where he never left the house.

He finally got over his loss by developing a sense of humour about his entire life. He decided to put his power to use by joining Project Heaven, and destroying as many monsters as he could.

Weaponry: Two pistols and a sword

(yey...my character. If you all wanna get others into this rpg...spread the word!)

Name: M
age: 24
Gender: male
Home Planet: Da Moon

Apperance: Standing about 5'11''...M has short hair which is a dark shade of purple with black/purple eyes as well. He's very well built with a calm look upon his face...you can't see it; but his entire left lung and arm is artifical, along with his left eye. The rest of his body is human.

Personality: M has a very gentle spirit...you never find him out of control in any given situation. Very focused and calm, M is always a pleasure to have along...never is he on the extremes on any level; he's always very moderate and caring.

Bio:
Both of M's parents were scientists on the Moon, studying the vast potential of the human mind. They never expected to find such power in their own son; not able to come up with a name...they simply named him M...for empath. It was hell for them as baby, for every emotion that came to his thought was expressed through their own emotions. Whenever M got upset...his parents could always feel it inside.

However...as he grew up...he began to control his emotions, as well as directing his efforts towards feeling others, sometimes looking into their past...and futures. But he always surpressed it for he felt like he was invading on others privacy. Whenever he does look into the heart of humans, animals, etc etc...he would shiver and go into a trance...and at times...he could even sense the presence of ghosts, which he has come to fear more than anything.

Through his entire life...not once did his parents place him in any experimental setting. They wanted to protect their son from such a life...however his father constantly trained him to control his powers as well as his military capabilities. Despite it being outlawed on earth...the colonies weren't under such jurisdiction.

A month after the event at New Berlin...his father's superiors called upon M to serve in Project Heaven on earth. The government knew of his sons abilities...but trusted in his judgement to raise him on his own. Now he's in the base underneath New York City...waiting for the other recruits.

Weaponary: A miniturized chain gun with armor piercing bullets and a shotgun on his belt. He also has a spear which he carries aroud with him with a long blade at the end with electrial charges, which can retract making it a simply walking stick.

Gift: Empath
Your Greatest Fear: Ghosts

[Kairi]

Damn...no one else is signing up. And I was getting excited about this as well:(...any ideas everyone...

[lil kitsune boy]

Name: Eric Corvis
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Home Planet: Earth
Apperance: 5'7", short 'dirty blonde' hair, medium build, eyes vary depending on mood, ranging from sky blue to slate gray(while it's rare, this is usually NOT a good thing)
Personality: Cheerful and easygoing, he is the model of 'the nice guy'. He will go out of his way to help people he doesn't even know and he will never betray the people who trust him. He loves to have fun and to laugh. Even with this upbeat personality, there is something unseen about him which suggests he hides a deep sadness.
Bio: Eric spent most of his early life moving around, whether it was being expelled from old schools or problems with his family, he never stayed to long in one place. His family managed to settle down once, but he had grown so used to moving around he ended up causing trouble so he could move in with other family members. After a while, they became so sick of it they threatened to throw him out of the street. This sobered him a bit and he learned how to get along with his family, finally learning to accept staying in one place. After a while, he managed to make lasting friendships, even fell in love. But that was only until that damnable New Year's Eve, the night his life was destroyed. He was with his family, his girlfriend was there as well, he'd even planned to propose that night, when it happened. The wave of supernatural force that now threatens the world came over him like a tidal wave... When he came to, the girl he loved and his entire family were torn to pieces, and his hands were stained red with their blood.
Ranged Weaponry: Shuriken and kunai(a dagger designed to be used equally well for both throwing and melee purposes).
Melee weapon: A traditionally handcrafted nodaichi(over sized katana) of exceptional quality that his girlfriend had given him as a gift. It's the only possession he has an attachment to and he is quite proficient in it's use.
Gift: Insight which results as brief glimpses of the future, effectively a danger sense that also increases his effectiveness in battle as well.
Greatest Fear: Losing someone he cares about/Being overcome by whatever it was that caused him to kill the people he loved again.

[Rei_Man]

Name: Carl Wethryn

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Home Planet: Earth

Appearance: Approx 5'9", medium-length brown hair, green eyes. Average build. Usually found with a good amount of stubble on his chin. Generally wears a dark grey tank-top, with matching boots and trousers. Often also has a worn-out body-armor vest, and a belt with a holster.

Personality: The classic 'loner' type, he is of the opinion that his business is his own, and that no one should have the right to interfere with it. He'll do what it takes to get the job done, but dislikes having to work within a team. As for as he is concerned, his best and only friend is his gun. He also has a thing for antique military goods.

Bio: Carl was always fascinated about war and the military, and even from an early age he'd hoped to become a hero in his own right. When he turned 19 years of age, he was finally enlisted in the armed forces. However, with the beginning of the long peace less than a year later, he was soon relieved from service and returned to his civilian status.
Soon afterwards he joined a security firm, offering guards for small and large corporations alike. Unfortunately, as crime rates fell steadily, the demand for - and action seen by - security guards started to dwindle. Eventually, they were nothing more than unnecessary symbols of power and authority, and Carl resigned.
His last resort was to join an underground militia, who refused to accept the government's call for peace. He remained in this group, striking out against government buildings and officials, up until two months ago - when one of his colleagues turned him in to the authorities.
Carl was originally given a ten-year prison sentence for his actions against the state, but one month ago his sentence was recalled. Due to his past service in the military and the experience it offered in the situation, he was assigned to a small rag-tag group issued with the protection of a government facility. The facility was attacked in the middle of the night, and Carl was one of only four soldiers who were skilled, or lucky, enough to make it to the escape point alive. After being reviewed several times over, it was decided that, in this case at least, his experience outweighed his crimes, and he was enlisted on the Heaven Project force.

Weaponry: Ranged;
1. Magnetic Acceleration Rifle - A basic bullpup format assault rifle (where the clip is behind the handle) with enhanced bullet speed.
2. Desert Eagle - An antique by most standards, but practically unstoppable at point-blank range. One of Carl's most treasured possesions.
[INDENT]Melee; A heavy sword with an unusually long handle. [/INDENT]

Gift: None.

Your Greatest Fear: Getting caught in a fight without ammo.

[Kairi]

Alright...looks good so far. The rpg will be starting this weekend; so everyone get ready. I'm also going to leave open for anyone else who wants to join as this progresses; you never know who will die (a.k.a leave the rpg:)) So please...get anyone else that you know of to join...

[I]Let the darkness come...[/I]

[Kiba_the_Chosen]

Name: Taikaru (Silent Death)

Age: 23

Gender: Female

Home Planet: Unknown Yet, some believe she comes from Earth

Appearance: A young women with semi-glossish black hair that strands. Her suit she wears is flexible leather that bends in the way she moves. With an added touch she has dark blue eyes.

Personality: Taikaru is quite evil to comparison of some people. She could almost be like the creatures in the incidents. She has a ruthless behavior and kills her target without hesitating. Without any distractions she is able to be quite grotesque with her kills.

Bio: As a young girl her she loved her planet. She loved to have fun. But that all ended when she was 10. Her mother died from a bullet wound to the back. Her father also died from a bullet wound, but it was to the back of his head. She was scared and the next thing she knew she was in an underground research facility at the age of 18. They told her that she was in a coma for eight years. They also assured her that the wars were over and peace resonated through the land. Yet the memory of her father?s blood clinging to her face wouldn?t vanish from her head. She was also told that she had to pay off the debt she was in for her treatment. So she has been with the underground agents ever since.
Her training progressed through the years; she even found her ability that saved her. They said the man that attacked her was gone. All but the head of the victim was found. There was a wound left but it wasn?t blood or a scar. It was just black and the eyes looked frightened. This power came from her to have a gift. She was taught that some humans receive gifts from evolution. It was basic common knowledge.
Anyway, after getting out of the coma she was able to remember how to do things. They were amazed at this for if a coma is not treated with in the first five hours they wouldn?t have been able to fully revive her memory. But now she is awake and very dangerous.
Her nickname was given to her by the ones who saved her. They found her gift works best in the dark. There for they named the gift? (Look at gift.)

Weapons: She has two black hand guns that have a bumpy texture on the handle. They bullets are powerful when shot out though. The advancements in the common hand gun were quite extraordinary.

Gift: Shadow Cleaving

Your Greatest Fear: The face of fear itself.

OOC: Hope you like it.

HEY EVERYONE...VERY IMPORTANT!!!...WE HAVE A NEW MEMBER JOINING THE ANGEL TEAM...THIS IS [U][B]ALTRONS[/B][/U] PROFILE FOR HIS CHARACTER...


Name: Julius Aurelius
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Home Planet: Born on Mars, lives on Earth.
Apperance:
[url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...nfinity/gah.jpg[/url]

Imagine him without the flight suit. 5'10", with green eyes. Medium build.
Personality: Julius loves to talk to people, and is usually very personable. He likes to have fun, and enjoy life. However, his job comes first always. Before and during the mission, he will become extremely serious, psyching himself up for the challenge ahead. If the mission fails, he blames it on himself. If it succeeds, he pushes the credit to someone else. One could go so far as to say Julius is humble, but it is not so.

While he likes being praised, he thinks that too much of it will make you become complacent, so he shuns it.
Bio: Julius was born on a Martian city. At his birth, he was diagnosed with a special 'gift' which the doctors labled a syndrome. It's medical definition is "Responsive Shell Syndrome," and it was so hyper active in Julius that he learned how to talk nearly a year before the average age of speaking infants. His father took advantage of such a gift, and helped him learn all he could in such a short time as the infantile years. He knew that children's brains absorbed information much faster than an adult, but his child was extraordinary. He had learned multiplication and division in kindergarden.

He lived on Mars until he was four years old. After that, his father decided it would be better if they moved to Earth, as there were better job prospects there, and his family needed the money.

Once they reached the Earth, his family's situation became much better, and they began to succeed. Julius had become very good in school, mastering information nearly five grades ahead of where he was. His teachers didn't know what to do with him, but the government did.

When he was 16, he was recruited by the military to join them in a project which he readily accepted. He hungered for a challenge, wished to better humanity. The government agency offered both to him. So, he joined, and trained as hard as he possibly could, and as a result learned to conquer his previous fears of death, and became an outstanding soldier. He could think much faster than any other soldier in the field could, as his brain soaked up all possible information on the battlefield, and actively applied it to his previous encounters and lessons. Some joked that he had a computer lodged inside his head.

All in all, he trained very hard, for he was told that "One day, people like you will save the world. You must bear that weight. You must save us all."

His time had come.

Weaponry:
- long range weaponry: Assault rifle, silenced pistol.
- melee weaponry: kodachi [small katana]
Gift: Hyper responsive brain. This means that he has no "powers," but can react to stimuli four to five times as fast as a regular human. Whether learning a new skill, reacting to a new combat situation, or sheer reflexes, his are much faster than normal. Basically, he reacts to things faster than most.
Your Greatest Fear: Bodily mutilation, loss of an apendage, and death of a loved one. He fears death of a loved one because he becomes very attached to them, and if they are taken away from him, he would suffer extreme grief. He is completely afraid of bodily mulitation or a loss of an appendage because he likes to remain mobile, without hinderance of a wheel-chair or some other means of help.
