I thought of this idea while reading one of the many werewolf vs. vampire stories and I came across the word mate. A long time ago there was such a thing as an arranged marriage and even today it is used in different countries. My view on that is that no one's life should be controlled and that we are entitled to be free human beings. But what if one strong opposing force controlled everything? It's a lot to grasp and how this force does as it does, but one person defies this world's natural laws by speaking against this force? Here is the plot:

Plot:
All girls go to boarding school until 18 and boys do the same. It is not co-ed, but separate. They meet their mate for life at 16 and "get to know each other" for 2 years until leaving school and getting a home. Everyone has the same everything: home, school, etc... Women are allowed 2 children, one boy and one girl. When they reach menopause it is the woman's duty to report to the doctor. When men reach 40 they must do the same as well. You can use your imagination on what happens. They do this so the population never changes and everything is strictly controlled.
Children must leave their parents at the age of 3 and are taken to boarding school. The only originality in a person's life is their job chosen by their talents, skills and also how you performed in boarding school. The usual jobs are things like working at a office that helps produce a product. Bad jobs are factory working and good jobs are doctors and government agents. They are normal jobs, except from the government agents. They devote their whole life to helping enforce the Supreme Law. The highest job is very rare and is only chosen very 50-80 years or so and it is the ruler of this world. That person needs to be, frankly, brain-washed to believe what they do is right. The child chosen has to obey as well as command. It is the hardest job in this other world.
This world has advanced technology and can be kind of sci-fi if you want it to be.

Rules:
-PG-13 and nothing more
-No killing characters, unless with permission from character-creator and me
-Age: 13-40 (or whatever if it’s the leader)
-One character per person
-No more than 12 characters
-No picture-perfect characters (but mine of course... just kidding!:D)

My Character:
Name: Fresia Rubensi
Age:16
Description (Type it out or pictures will be appreciated): http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/4664/p2wm0.jpg
Personality: Brave, outspoken, popular among her friends, does not obey every order, likes trouble
History: Had dreams of her parents when she was younger and cried more than other girls when she was separated. Unlike everyone else, she remembers their kindness vividly and can only wish to see them when she leaves. She has dreaded her mating day since when she was first told about it.
Talents and Skills (or their job if they are 18 or older): She is particularly good at art and music. She has a beautiful voice and sings high soprano in choir. She is great at writing, but doesn't show that skill in school.
Weakness(es): Chocolate (No that's mine. Haha! :lol:) Her weakness is mandatory classes instead of the few creative.

If anyone breaks the rules they will first be given 1 warning and then will be kicked out. Anyone can make up a character and make sure it's good and easy to play. :D

Name: Markus Shepherd

Age: 16

Description: Tall, with black hair and grey-blue eyes. http://juonkung.deviantart.com/art/Russian-Boy-57180444

Personality: He seems to be mildly amused by those around him, never so much as to laugh out loud, but enough that he almost constantly wears a self-satisfied smirk on his face. He is usually very sombre in his dealings with those around him - he's dedicated to the government, and while not as blindly zealous as his parents, he does disapprove of the extremely rebellious tendencies he sees among his peers from time to time.

History: The son of a government agent and a teacher, he was raised believing that everything they put forward was infallible. The natural rebellion that came with adolescence, as well as a few eye-opening experiences in seeing what his father did for a living, challenged that belief to an extent, although he still believes that the Supreme Law is overall correct, even if there are a few problems with it.

Talents and Skills: He's a good athlete and a crack shot, the result of the side training he has undertaken with his father. He is also a talented speaker and, although not very creative, can write very well if a non-fiction piece is requested of him.
He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt. - Yossarian, Catch-22

Wide-eyed stupid.

If you're gonna rule the world, you've gotta get up early! - Joel S. Dickens

okay, we have 6 characters so far, including myself, people who call spots, and everyone else. if you have called a spot and do not post your bio, the people who did will be added on to the 12 characters. those who have already wrtten their bio may add on anything they want and have been added to the character list:

-Fresia Rubensi ~ SeleneForeverDream (me)

-Jessy James Brown ~ myfriendsavamp

-Leo Radcliffe ~ xXParamoreXx

-Markus Shepherd ~ Billy

-Erika Johnson ~ *singerofthenight*

remember, if you haven't posted your bio yet, please do so ASAP. techniqually, 8 characters are up to take. i will post the Final Character List when we have 8 more bios posted. any more will not be posted. all the characters look great! why are all of them 16 though...? oh well. 16 is an interesting age for the people in this "nothing" world, so feel free to do as you wish. i guess if someone made theirs older, they would soon die. the life span of 40 years really isn't long. 18 is a good age also for people who are still going to make their bio. anyway, as soon as 8 people post bios, the sooner the story can start. :D

Character Profile:

Name: Eva Morrow

Age:15

Appearence: http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w175 ... wnhair.jpg
[url]

Personality: She hates the thought of mating day because she was always very independent and and extremely defiant. So defiant it gets on peoples nerves.

History: Her brother is the ruler of the world. He was taken away when she was an infant and he was 12. She had been told how happy he was when he was taken. He had actually wanted to rule over a government built on lies. No brainwashing was necessary. Now he has been attempting to get his younger sister on his side for a while. He has been so desperate he has sent numerous guards in order to bring her to him. So far she hates the government. Since she has entered this boarding school she has felt somewhat safe from him and his torture threats here at school and protected by friends. Regardless, mating day is 1 year off and so that, besides endless studying has been bothering her forever. Her parents are mysterious, but guess what? She doesn't care. She hates them for letting the government take her when she could barely stand on her own two legs. She hates them for letting her brother become the menace he is today. When all the other students have cried over their parents she has never shed a tear for any of her blood relations. Her new family is her friends at school and she knows she can trust them. She thinks of herself to be unrelated to her "brother."

Talents and Skills: She is a mistress of disguise. She can use a few tools she can completely transform herself into anyone. She uses this to her advantage a number of times.

Weakness: She is really lactose intolerant. Her brother has been trying to use this to his advantage...

Can I add a pet? If so here it is...

Pet: Lucy the cat. Lucy is a black cat with a white face and green eyes. It's a girl. She is unusually small and can easily fit into a rucksack which by the way, Eva carries around with her 24/7. It is filled with make-up, fake noses, and wigs of all sorts, plus a hand mirror.

Personality: Tiffers is that quiet and awkward person most people try to avoid, well, all people try to avoid. Her beauty makes it to where she is that girl any guy would want as a mate, she is just scared who she may be pared with since her sixteenth birthday is only a few days away...

She was never taught things as a normal child would be taught and decided to take up gymnastics just to prove she could, and she did and is the best gymnists anyone could ever see.
