The Saviors: New World Order

Humanity has almost destroyed the planet, through war and pollution. Some animals and plants have mutated into dangerous species that seem to have one purpose: devouring humans. They roam outside the walls of compounds that the last of our race now reside inside.

The governments of the world have begun to construct the "Space Arcs" (or just Arcs) to take certain people to a newly terriformed Mars. It is not intended to be a permanent move, for the top geneticists of the world have created an ingenious way to clean up the planet.

Getting desperate, scientists created a type of superhuman, known as Saviors. These humans have been engineered to have certain powers that are designed to remake the planet. Some can negate pollutive chemicals. Some can reverse the terrible mutations of the flora and fauna.

However, the Saviors were not warned that there is another force running rampant on Earth: the scientists' failed experiments. These mutants are as intelligent as any human, perhaps more so, and they're angry. Carelessly tossed out of the compounds, they've adapted to the pollution, and are organizing an army to make sure the Saviors fail. And they will do so, even if it kills them.

Humans are leaving. The Saviors are left to their task, with only limited resources and basic radios to communicate with Earth officials. Silently, the mutants watch and wait for their moment to rise. The world will die if the Saviors do not succeed.


Here are all of the Savior powers. There are four:



1) You can eliminate noxious pollutants, making them into oxygen or nitrogen. Basically, as you breath, you are cleaning the air. You do not need a gas mask.



2) You can reverse the mutations of plants and animals. When you are within a ten-foot radius of any mutations, they begin to reverse back to their normal selves. You need a gas mask to breathe in the atmosphere.



3) You can purify water. This power is somewhat like the first in that you eliminate pollution. However, you need to touch the water to clean it. You require a gas mask to breath.



4) You have super strength. You are not for remaking the planet; you are designed to protect the other Saviors from outside forces. You can breathe for limited times without a mask.

For mutant characters, you can make your own power. Let's try to keep the Savior/mutant ratio even, though!

Here's my character:

Name: Ithycus Burns (Or just Burns)

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Description: Ithycus is tall and pale, with long black hair. He usually wears loose black clothing that's easy to move in. He's got a kind of pointy face, but there's always a smile there, or laughter. He is blind.

Personality: He's easy going, loves his friends, and is also fiercely protective. He is good at fighting, but does not like to harm anything, even enemies, and he can wield his power efficiently. He wholeheartedly enjoys his task of cleaning up Earth, and he never gets tired of it. He doesn't really have any love of the scientists who created him: it was painful, like torture. He knows what has to be done, though, and does it.

Power: Ithycus can reverse the mutations of plants and animals.

Short Bio: His parents gave his embryo to the scientists for the project, and, after he grew up and went through the painful experiment process (blinding him), he embraced his task. He volunteered to be left behind.

Weaknesses/Strengths: He only ever reluctantly fights. It's very hard to urge him to do so. Most of the time, when he's fighting, it's to protect his friends. He has found that, much of the time, when he reverses the mutations on animals, they'll follow him around, and he can train them. Now he has his own mini force of dogs, cats, squirrels, and various other animals that he's un-mutated.

Weapon: His power, a small handgun.

Other: Up for love.

Name: Lucy Hale

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Description:

Spoiler

Personality: She is graceful and posied, but clever and witty as well. She has a generally kind personality, though can be sarcastic, depending on her mood. If she is mad, some of her looks can give you chills strait down your spine. Don't make her mad.

Power: Strength

Weakness/Strengths: One huge weakness is her lack of ability to trust. But she is a strong thinker and strong physically as well.But she is very honest.

Short Bio: She was abandoned at a young age and she had to learn the guitar and sing to make money because she won't steal. She was picked for this because no one would notice when she went missing.

Weapon: Her hands, she beleives hand-to-hand combat is an honest way to fight.

Other: Definetly up for love, if you can get her to trust you.

Name: Coita Derser (coy-ta)

Gender: Female

Age: 18

Description:

Spoiler

Personality: She is always just sort of 'there' until you need her. She is always present, but never really a part of the action. She just likes to sit back and observe people. But she gives great advice and is really smart.

Power: Purifying water

Weakness/Strengths: She can't be near fire, ever, but she tells great stories.

Short Bio: She always had a loving family, and had a way of knowing that everything would work out in the end. She became very optimistic. She always had a happy life and was more than happy to offer her services when she was asked to do this.

Weapon: a small blue knife she always has with her.

Other: Up for love.

Name: Chella "Blue" Dela' Mode







Gender: female







Age: 13







Description:

Spoiler

http://img.wallpaperstock.net:81/avril-blue-eyes-wallpapers_12639_1024x768.jpg

But a younger than this picture









Personality: Quite cheery once you actually get to know her, but she seems mysterious and foreboding if you don't. And if you're her enemy, she's positively ruthless.





Power: Absorbsion. She can suck the life out of things, but it is very draining to suck it out completely. She tends to just weaken them. She can then temporarily use a watered-down version of their powers, if they have any. Works only by touch.







Weakness/Strengths: She dislikes her power because she can't touch anything without killing/harming it. Therefore, always wears gloves.She only takes them off when fighting. She is a weak fighter unless you get close enough for her to touch you-- although has great aim with a knife.







Short Bio: She is a mutant, although you can't tell that from looking at her. She has a prosthetic leg because of her mutation's side effects, and the mutation gave her bright blue eyes (hence her nickname). She hates Saviors because her mom used to be one. They had a very tough relationship, and Chella was often beaten. She is driven towards ridding the world of all who were like her mother. She was mutated when she was five, and her leg became mangled because of it. She now has a prosthetic leg.







Weapon: knife, hands. Wears a fencing vest most of the time, simply for some extra protection.







Other: She can live w/o a gas mask for a little while if she touches a air cleaning person.

Name: Daniel Keiron

Gender: Male

Age: 14

Description: Brown hair, wears a makeshift gas mask crafted out of an old astronaut helmet, as he was the last to receive one and the pile had been depleted. Average height.

Personality: While Daniel tries to be positive and uplifting, he often finds himself swinging into monotone moods. He attempts to be friendly to everyone he meets.

Power: #2, though he has always desired #1.

Weakness/Strengths: Has no problem with mutated animals, but has an intense fear of transformed plants, despite his repairing power. He is often to frightened to hang around a plant long enough to fix it. Can create small, almost always uneffective, quakes in the earth.

Short Bio: Daniel was a strong protester against the decisions the governments made toward destroying the planet. He was taken by the scientists, and, in a cruel joke, forced to clean the world himself, it being what he always wanted.

Is this post- first Saviors or alternate time line?

This is an alternate timeline...

Name: Satria

Gender: Female
Age: 16

Description: Black long hair, Black eyes. Satria is short but very strong regardless of her size. She tends to wear whatever clothing is available, and rarely smiles at all.

Personality: Satria hates that's she's a savior, but is determined to protect whoever she needs to. She hates smiling and being happy. She rarely talks, but when danger comes around she's always there to protect.

Power:#4

Weakness/Strengths: Satria is a very good fighter and can be very useful with whatever weapon you give her. However she doesn't really have any social skills and doesn't do well in big crowds.

Short Bio:Satria was taken away from her home and family when she was young, so she doesn't really remember much. Now she is a Savior with no memory of her past and no hope for the future.

Weapon:Bow and arrow, knife and her bear hands.

Wait, RedBird, I'm a little lost. Alternate timeline...? What's changing about it?
Oh, and I'm so in again by the way! *goes to retrieve profile*

Name: Calli Poole

Gender: Female

Age: 14

Description: She's pretty average overall. She has icy blue eyes and elbow length, straight brown hair. She usually wears baggy sweatshirts and jeans. Her gas-mask looks like a clear surgeon's mask, but.

Personality: she's always up for a challenge and an argument. Calli is spunky and secretly enjoys annoying the people she considers her friends. She also loves to play with words, which can further confuse her comrades.

Power: She can purify water with a single touch.

Weakness: Calli enjoys fighting, but killing is another thing. Blood doesn't scare her, but corpses do. She rarely finds herself able to sleep, which makes her weaker than she should be. She doesn't always think things through, and sometimes fears loosing her friends because of it.

Strengths: She can manipulate water to do just about anything, and can also make the water freeze, heat or boil. She's great at fighting, and her words can be just as powerful. If any of her friends are in danger, she'll risk her life to save them.

Short Bio: Her parents abandoned her when she was really young, and some of the scientists found her. She went through many painful experiments which made her tight-lipped and aggressive. She spent the first part of her life surrounded by men in lab-coats or locked up in a white room, so she treasures the friends she has, even if she doesn't always act like it. No one has ever seen her cry.

Weapon: All the water around her, as well as a small dagger in her boot.

Other: Not exactly into lovey-dovey stuff, but she wants someone she can trust enough to tell things to.

*one more question, would you mind if I gave a mutant character a shot, RedBird? Or would you rather we give the newbies a chance to claim them first? *

Edit: **Okay, here's my mutant!**

Name: Mercury “Merc”

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Description: Has silver eyes, just like her namesake, mercury. Jet black hair that falls just past her shoulders with bangs hanging in her eyes. She has orange tiger fur on her left shoulder that spans just about to her elbow. She has a thing for long coats (to the knees) in just about any dark color, but is typically in a dark orange one. She doesn’t need a gas mask because her DNA had traces of pollutants, so she no longer needs one.

Personality: willful, confident and arrogant, with a bit of an attitude towards authority. She hates taking orders, preferring to give them instead. Merc has a bit of a soft spot for big cats and usually travels with a mostly black White Siberian tiger with purple eyes named Zesix. She’s a bit eccentric and tends to be undecided and constantly weighing the odds of things. It’s probably a good thing she’s not in charge, because she’s whimsical and tends to have spur-of-the-moment, not always “bright” ideas.

Power: Can share thoughts with tigers, and can get several species of animals (mostly the big, sharp-toothed ones) to do whatever her current whim is.

Weakness/Strengths: she can think on her feet, but her ideas aren’t always smart or safe, and she tends to endanger not only herself but possibly whoever she was with, though that’s rarely her intention. Has a wild imagination and can try to find the good in people, although she tends to be more of a pessimist than an optimist. She hates/fears cockroaches and millipedes, and has no idea why.

Short Bio: she was experimented on when she was little by a wacko who was out to make human-animal mutants. The tests he put her through were excruciating and caused her to lose memory of her life before-hand, from birth until about age 8. She destroyed his lab when he combined her DNA with a tiger at age 13, and has been on the run from everyone since. She thinks of the world-wide mutation and pollution as a chance to get back at the humans who did that to her, and have a little fun doing it.

Weapon: Her claws/a bow with cobra-venom-coated arrows (although she’s not the most accurate shot, she’s deadly if she can hit you)

What I meant by alternate timeline is that things won't happen the same way as they did before. And there are new characters.
Also...Why don't you make a mutant, if you want to!

Okay...We're going to start soon, but we still need some more people!

I'll Join!

Name: Lila Hawke

Gender: Female

Age: (13-25) 17

Description: Long, wavy brown hair and deep brown eyes. She is small and elf like and has a small button nose. She requires no gas mask and so she wears a blue mask that covers half of her face.

Personality: She is quiet and withdrawn going about her work. She is deathly afraid of the mutant flora and fauna but she tries to cover her fear. She believes in true love.

Power: #1 Eliminating poisonous gases

Weakness: Deathly afraid of mutant flora and fauna. She hates it because she finds it unnatural, she is old enough to still have vague memories of how these plants should look and their mutations scare her. She also hates the idea that her sister is currently living on Mars having been too young to become a saviour.

Strengths: She is extremely agile and quick thinking. She is also driven by her passion to re-deem her parents death and to create a better world for her sister, this makes her unstoppable in some ways.

Short Bio: She was one of the last Saviours to be created and she is still trying to adjust to her strange ability to breathe in the toxic gases. Her parents had already perished on the toxic Earth and so she gave herself up willingly to become a Saviour and help the survival of mankind.

Weapon: (not obligatory): Hands, she has a small dagger but prefers not to use it.

Other: Up for love.

I'm a noob... so is there anything in particular I should know about the old one?

Nothing in particular, no...PM me if you have any pressing questions.

Ok. I shall. Are we gonna start soon?
