Setting:
The year is 2134, and you live in the city known as Lisco. When you look up, you see the sky, but in all reality you are in a large glass dome. It extends across the whole city, comparable to the size of Chicago; and with new technologies rain, snow, heat, and cold, all happen through a control center. It is changed when wanted, but is usually kept on realistic weather standards: spring, summer, fall, and winter. Lisco is like any other city, police, apartments, streets, fast food, parks, grocery stores, the good, the bad, and the ugly. The dome seems like it has been up since the beginning of time, but it has actually been about 100 years.

Plot:
Due to outer biological hazards, a dome over the city had been lifted. Little did the superiors know, people had already been affected, and presented a hidden power within themselves. They lived as everyday citizens, struggling with what they had in secrecy.


Note: The plot is going to have major unknown twists, which is why there isn’t much of a plot up there. You may twist it if you please, but I will if no one gets to it. I will also be playing many NPC’s to keep things interesting!

Races/Powers:
You are a human, but you have powers. There are no demons, werewolves, vampires, or elves, you know, anything that is not human!
You may on the other have a variety of powers, shapeshifting, elemental control, intensified sight, movement, or reactions. Of course you can be unique and come up with something random, like to sense vegetables or something. Feel free to come up with what you want, not just my examples.

Appearance: User Image
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Weapons: Pocket knife, pepper spray
Powers: minor earth controll, wants to learn more
Location: Casa Verda Apartments on 19th street room 302
Personality: Her moods change with what is going on, and easily, like an open book. She is easy to smile and laugh, and on the same note to grow depressed and cry. She is paranoid but also amused by small things.
Biography: Once upon a time she had lived at the nice part of town, with everything she could have possibly needed. Arkane was abandoned a year ago by her father, left with little money and a minimum wage job as a waitress at Smokey’s. Her power had come from her mother, who had died at her birth. Not able to afford much, but paranoid of any possibility of anything worse happening, she decided to train herself for self defense when she has the time. She has no known relatives, though has recently become interested in the surrounding dome, now and then traveling the miles to look at its edge.

Appearance: User Image
Age: known to be 24
Gender Male
Weapons: A pistol and a hidden dagger
Powers: Illusions
Location: Apartment on 7th Street Room 1
Personality: Sly, cunning, charming, always smiling.
Biography: Varsen never had parents. Ever. Or so he liked to say. The world he lived in was a creation of his own, is own powers of illusion. He canceled any childhood he ever had from his mind and proceeds to believe he is ageless, and above all. He began making money with little shops, and upon realizing his powers, exploited them in any way possible to make money.
He now has many houses, and a gang of thugs when needed, but often as not he didn't. He isn't sure now what he wants, with everything he needs at his grasp, so he has been on a search for what he doesn't have.

At first she wanted to become a professional photographer and set about to do so but after a twist of fate she was hired to take photographs in secrecy of philandering and unfaithful partners caught in the deed, needless to say she uses her powers to stalk others or, if the money is tight, live in a more suitable fashion for a period of time (like living homeless as a cat).
Currently, if someone is suspect of doing an unmentionable and suspicious deed you call up Calli.

Biography: Sol never realized how many people actually were bestowed with powers until he found himself accidentally mimicking others in public, this caused issues about his own identity and it took him awhile to learn how to control himself. He did this by negating the powers of all others around him, just so he could be normal. His parents never had powers themselves and died when he was 17, leaving him a hefty sum of money allowing Sol to live on his own. He has a book store down on Burgundy Strip called Quaetia Books, someone else he inherited from his parents. Here he sells used and new books, also has a mighty fine collection of older texts stored in the back. He is well educated, having graduated from highschool at fourteen, he has various masters degrees.

Soon enough she came to realize that her eyes were not really bad but they were better than most people's eyes.

Arkane slammed the door, fumbling with her keys to lock it. Once again she was off to a shaky afternoon where the possibility of walking in late could get her fired. She fleeted down the three flights of stairs, through the door, and out into the not so busy street. It was a more poor part of town, so people stayed in as often as they could. Sighing she made her way for Smokey's, another eight hour shift ahead. Getting off when it was dark was one of the worst things for her. The constant paranoia of being mugged, or worse, always jumped into her head. It's just a matter of getting there and back she thought with a small reassuring nod.

The female tucked a strand of long brown hair behind her ear and glanced at her watch every few seconds as if the constant movement would help. She felt as though her brows were always pulled into this worried, unknowing look. Her speedy steps stopped for but a moment as she looked at the doors of Smokey's with her large blue eyes, then continued at the quick pace. A few minutes late she threw on her uniform and bounced over to a table with her painted on smile. “And how can I help you today?!” Her voice piped with emphasis on the “you” to make the person feel special.

Calli was adjusting the new lens on her camera, it had cost her a cool five grand and at least two months of almost non-stop work but it had all been worth it. The lens itself was infra-red, something she had been missing dearly after he last lens had met an unfortunate demise at the hands of an angry patron, it had nearly broken her heart when she saw it dropped into that toilet...

At the moment Calli was sort of on the job, she had been told by her current patron (an old woman who had suspected her husband of twenty years to be hooking up with younger males) that 'Smokey's' was a place she had usually silently followed him to and his schedule had always remained about the same. Calli noted the time on her mobile phone (which also had a pretty-advanced camera on it), seeing that in about half-an-hour this so called "cheater" would appear to meet a young male lover and whisk him away.

She sighed and shifted in the semi-comfortable diner booth she was sitting in, removing the lens and carefully placing it back into her camera bag.
She almost jumped out of her seat when she was addressed by the waitress.

"Uh, umm, can I start out with a coffee please? And may I ask, what are the specials for the day?"
PostPosted: Sat Jan 31, 2009 7:43 pm


One of the first things she noticed were the girls eyes, they seemed intense, put to use and... She stopped. “Sure thing!”
Arkane perked and didn’t bother pulling out her notepad.
“The lunch specials are the club sandwich and the burger… basket?” She flushed at the last word; having almost forgotten, “yes that’s it!” she smiled a little nervously at the female.
If she had bothered memorizing today’s menu that wouldn’t have happened, but she slipped in to the back of her head, noticing the camera bag the girl had.
It would have to be an expensive camera, but she decided not to comment on it. At one point when she was younger photography had been one of her favorite subjects, even taking it as a high school freshman. As if an instinct she placed a hand on the pad in her apron pocket, it always made her feel safe to be doing something, anything with her hands.

Calli adjusted her gaze on the waitress, she examined the girl, her hair, her eyes, her features and habitually noted to herself that she was non-threatening. Strangely, this habit had come from her experience of being animals the weren't typically at the top of the food-chain, something that she couldn't seem to break.

"Club sandwich and burger basket, huh?" She gave a slight smile and placed her hand on her chin thoughtfully.

"I believe I'll have the burger basket, can I have fries with it?"

She widened her smile into a friendly grin, she was afraid that her tom-boyish appearance was appearing to be a bit intimidating, never thinking that it may have been her honed gaze.

“Yup, comes with it! It’ll be up ina bit.” Arkane grinned back and shuffled to the back counter, yelling to the cooks.

Varsen was sitting atop a horse; a carousal horse that is, the breeze blowing the long locks of blond hair under his hat. He was gazing ahead, at the moving horizon while adults grabbed at their children. Maybe the ride wasn’t something he should have done. He hopped off mid-rotation and walked from the skeptical glares. He was outside Lastey’s, lately he had been liking those things… they were called Twinkies, he remembered. He picked up his grocery bag full of the spongy cakes and walked towards his apartment.

It was a nice day out and he had decided to not drive his flashy car, keeping in shape was important anyway. He could always make himself appear well built but he liked the reality much better. A grin adorning his face he stopped and watched people walk about him. People watching was interesting, especially when you watched them in pairs. He never quite felt creepy for it; it was entertainment like anything else. His phone gave off a few buzzes and he was moving again, down 9th street to Daisy Park.

Eyeballing her phone for the time, Calli adjusted her gaze to an older looking man walking into the diner that matched the description her patron had given her. She tipped the beak of cap down lower as to make sure that the man could not catch her gaze. With a hand, she grabbed the body of her camera and instinctively placed a smaller lens on it. Out of her peripheral vision she watched where the man sat down, it wasn't too far from where she was herself but unfortunately close enough for her to be noticed for any unconventional activity. All Calli needed was one picture, one!
She would have to wait and make sure that this man was indeed cheating on her wife, this would mean watching him while he was at the diner and if he left, following him. Calli was notorious for dining and dashing.
Damn, when is that food going to get here? She thought nervously.
