Hey, I have really been getting into storybooks lately and so I thought I would post one myself. This is based off the prologue to my novel.

Plot:
Set in the year 2318, the human's DNA has somehow gotten altered. Only about ten-thousand people are "infected" each with his/her unique super power. Most of the infected are freaked out and are running ramped throughout the world destroying everything they can. This unnatural behavior causes the government to become involved and capture the wild ones.

Our place in this setting is a group of infected all from the same town. We are trying to learn more about our abilities, prevent the other infected from killing us, and not let the government take us wherever the others go.

Rules:
1. No sex scenes
2. No killing off/government taking away another user's character without his/her permission.
3. Characters must be from ages 14-22.
4. No super-gory violence, but some violence is fine.
5. No multi-personality characters.

Character Profiles:

Name:






Age:






Power:






Appearance:






Personality:

I really shouldn't, but here's my character anyway.

Name: Raven Stayke
Age: 18
Power: Fire
Apperance: Short, spiky, black and red hair, and light green eyes. She mostly wears layered skirts with leggings and some band tee (Aiden). She has a lip ring and wears some type of bow in her hair. Is never without her vans.
Persona: Most would label her as the mean-baddie type by her looks but she really is nice and somewhat, emotionally, unstable. She gets scared easily and tends to linger by those she thinks can protect her in a time of danger. She loves to get along with everyone and hates making enimies.
Weakness: She hates being alone and is too trusting of others. Is, more or less, a pushover.
Strength: Karate skills.
Likes/Dislikes: Loves her Ipod and likes being 'in' on things. Dosnt like to fell as if she's surrounded. Crowds of more than four people creep her out.
Other: Love, friendship.

Oh, hun, you shouldn't fear me quitting. Haha, it's just the simple fact that I am already in roughly two SBs.

**Oh, I hate quitters, too. Nearly every SB I've been in so far has died because no one will post. It's really irritating.**

Name: Christine O'Donavan (Chrissy)
Age: 18
Power: water-manipulation
Apperance: Shoulder-length blonde hair and light-grey eyes. She wears ripped jeans,black tees, and black vans with a single whites skull on each shoe. She rarely goes out without her accessories (a black leather and spiked bracelet, silver rings set with sapphires), or her eyeliner.
Persona: Despite her outer appearance, Chrissy is fun-loving with a laid back attitude. She loves to laugh, but isn't to be taken lightly. She knows when to be serious, but otherwise, she's full of sarcastic humor and a few lame jokes here and there.
Weakness: Her reluctance to open up to others leaves her with bottled up emotions that can sometimes make her snappy and unsociable, though it passes when she is able to calm herself down.
Strength: She had earned a black belt in her karate class, and had taken some kick-boxing courses. She's also a fairly good archer and has some experience with bostaff.
Likes/Dislikes: She loves animals, especially cats, and music. She's rarely without her iPod. She doesn't like to confess her emotions, but prefers to not have people worry over her. She hates being pitied. She'd rather have others depend on her than lean on others.
Other: Up for love/friendship
Llama 1:"Shh! Do you hear that? That's the sound of forgiveness."
Llama 2:"That's the sound of people drowning, Carl!"
Llama 1:"That is what forgiveness sounds like; screaming and then silence."

*I don't quit SB's. My character eventually drifts off all posts except mine . . .*

Anyway, here's my character:

Name: Vires Vicis

Age: 17

Power: Time, not the ability to travel through and back, but the ability to make it slow down while he is moving at a faster rate.

Appearance: You can usually find him wearing skinny jeans and a shirt with something dryly humorous on it.

Personality: Vires is a horribly negative person with a pessimistic view on life. He has a very dark sense of humour, a strange view on honour and is rather sadistic. He seems bitter and hateful with his life. He is very cynical and maniacal at times. However, at times, he can surprise people with being quite empathetic. He has quite the vocabulary so beware.

Weaknesses: Terribly antisocial, well, not really anti-social, the society is more anti-Vires.

Strengths: Is a very strong minded person who can stand up for himself. He is also very efficient with people able to sneak up on people.

Likes: Green apples (LOL, random), and people who can give him a run for his money (match wit).

Dislikes: Red apples and people who can give him a run for his money (match wit).

Other: Up for love.

I claim a girl
I am nothing
but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted
apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's
or maybe like pocket candy
that's just a bit too sweet.

Wow three posts in two minutes. =)

Sounds good everyone and I really like your characters.


BTW: Also I will be the one to start the story book because my introductory post will make the setting seem a bit easier to work with. Dont worry about that now though!

True that. :D
I'll consider joining, don't worry I post nonstop. But it angers me when everybody else involved disappears. :twisted: I've ended like seven storybooks at my lonesome. :lol:
