Ok, so first of all, this is my first RPG. So if I am not clear on things, I'm sorry and please ask any questions you have. ^^ Luckily, I have had help from the ever so kind Rocklobster. Thanks dude! ^__^b

GM is me, and co-GM is Rocklobster.


Humanity's Edge

Earth, the year 3130. A horrible didsease has broken out. In the first 6 months of this disease, it has spread very rapidly and killed 10% of the world's population. The doctors and scientists are working fast and hard on finding a cure. It seems there is no hope. Until finally, they come up with something: The nanobot. In a hurry to create them, they look past certain details and inject the nanobots into the diseased, and many of those who are not diseased. The nanobots heal the sick, and much, much more. They begin taking over the bodies of the humans they were injected into. They begin to develop a collective mind, and attacking the humans. The humans try to fight back, but are over powered by the nanobots. Eventually the humans go into hiding.

Okey, so here is the character format:

Alias: Johnny Walker
Real Name: Ambrose Percy IV
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Appearance: 6'2" lean build. Brown eyes. Dirty blond hair. Scruffy beard.
Personality: Fiercely independent, abrasive, talkative, vengeful, distrustful at first, more depth below this exterior.
Bio: Ambrose Percy IV was a privileged child. He was born into a life of wealth and luxury. Since he could have whatever his young heart desired, most things lost their enjoyment/meaning very quickly for him. By age 11 he was quite an indifferent child; however, then his father took him on his first hunt. The excitement of the hunt and the exhilaration of the kill fascinate him. They do not grow old. Ambrose become such an adept user of firearms that when his father pressures him to enter the military. After all, all the Percy men have been served the country. Ambrose, being a spoiled rich kid, does not take well to the authoritarian military. They let him get away with a lot, tho, b/c of who he is and how good he is in combat. He is so good that they put him in a special "non-existent" squad to carry out seedy assassinations that the country does not want to be tied to. After many successful ops, Ambrose's team screws up. Upon failure, the squad is deemed useless and dangerous (too many secrets), so the military secretly does away with each of them. Ambrose is able to escape, but the military still claims he is dead. He takes on the moniker Johnny Walker and becomes a nomad of sorts, killing his own food and living his own way. The experience of betrayal at the hands of the military extinguished any lingering flame of trust left within him. He was living in an isolated, small commune when the call to go into hiding was issued.
Skills/weapons: Johnny hearts guns. He can also survive in the wilderness on his own.

Name: Major Katelin Thomas

by Twila27
Name: Liam Hawkins
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Appearance: He wears spectacles, has a skinny, tall physique with a rigid, hawk-like face. Short brown hair is concealed by a plain black cap, and two steel blue-gray eyes stare out from beneath the brim. A musty brown backpack filled with supplies and kits with surgical knives positioned for an easy defense hangs from his shoulders. A small handgun remains loaded beneath his torn and shabby greyed white doctor's coat from his clinic, which he is sentimentally attached to.
Personality: A serious, grave man, Liam takes orders without complaint, although he has a side of him that absolutely despises fighting. He strives to compensate for the inevitable battles with a gentle, compassionate side that comes out when he treats patients. He vehemently opposes things done by force, and won't treat a patient that refuses him on the grounds of "free will".
Bio: His parents died when he and his brother were 20, and because the disease was the cause of their death Liam went into the medical field to oppose it. Close friends with his twin brother Kiernan, who is the only person outside of his patients that he'll talk normally to--although Liam's beliefs and views oppose his brother's on many subjects. Around a year ago Liam had to flee from his clinic when he realized that the nanobots were attempting to invade it and possess him for his medical talents. While he has a desire to form some sort of cure or try to discover one, he has no actual plans for how to do so. Because the evil nanobots arose from the advance of medical technology, Liam prefers to use older methods that don't involve the use of rare, expensive high-tech equipment.
Skills/weapons: His traditional medical skills, implements, and the small gun.

All right, here we go! (If you don't mind, Ella, my chara is going to be Ket's sis.)

Name: Kora Mason
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Short, spiky light brown hair and greenish yellow eyes. Rather tall for her age. She wears comfortable blue jeans and black tank top.
Personality: She carries herself with maturity beyond her years. Behind her adult-like facade hides her true self, a frightened child who had to grow up too soon.
Bio: Her parents died from nano possession when she was very young, and she thought of Ket as a replacement parent, since he is nearly ten years older than she. Her ideas of him broke to pieces when their parents' death drove him to join the military to purge the rest of the existing nanos. She hadn't seen much of him since, staying with different families until they could no longer take care of her. Now 16, she lives alone, trying to keep the off the nanos that seem attracted to her for some odd reason. Because of this, she has nightmares about her family almost every night, her unconsious screams leading the nanos ever closer to her location. To evade them, she is forced to move around a lot and have few personal ties to others, lest they become possessed because of her. She does know Lauren through her brother, but they aren't all that close because of their age difference.
Skills/weapons: Her maturity and discretion allow her to be a very influential leader, negotiator, and personal problem-solver. Her only weapon is a small knife that she keeps in her pants pocket.

Hope this is okay, Ella!

by Lynna
Name:Azalea Hope Ashenbridge
Age:19
Gender:female
Appearance: Long, bright red hair (really, really red) pale skin, hazel eyes
Personality:Despite her elegant and refined appearance, she can be very loud and mischivious. Even through all the horrors of the nanos, she still believes that there is hope in the world. She loves to dance and write, and is constantly keeping a journal. Percevierance and cheerfullness are her good points, and uncaution and stubborness are her weaknesses. Koji (TG's character) is her older brother and she has quite the sister complex
Bio: I'm uncertain of her history. I think it should be that her father caught the nano's and so was killed and her mother is out there somewhere. She is the only known human who is immune to the nano's, and it is believed she can cure people of them ( this is only a thought. You can tell me what you want done, Ella)
Skills/weapons: She is extreamly skilled in martial arts and in knife-throwing. She also is a pretty good archer. She's tottally hopeless with guns though

by TGJesusfreak
Name: Koji Jameson Ashenbridge

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Appearance: Medium length messy brown hair, built strong, 5 ft 10 in high, light skin color (but not white).

Personality: He can sometimes be quite abrasive, but he means well. He can be quick to take offence and quick to apologize. He is worried for his sister at all times. Hopeing she has a future to live for. She's the reason that he keeps fighting onward. Without her hopeful attitude, he'd have have given up hope long ago.

Bio: When they were kids they lived in a house in the woods. They played a lot outside climbing trees and the like. So avoiding the nanos by hiding in trees is used frequently. When he was 12 he became fascinated by electronics, learning all he could about them and then making inventions. Azalea and Koji's father was taken over by the nanos 5 months ago, shortly after the injections started, the shock of the nanos taking over him killed him. The nanos now control the empty husk of his body. Their mother is out there somewhere whether she has nanos or not is unknown...

Skills/weapons: Koji is an electronics engineer. He's got a pretty good shot with a handgun, and has learned a bit of martial arts from his sister but is not near as good as her.
