I thought of this idea a while ago. Simular things have probably been done before, but I thought I'd just ask people's opinions and think about writing it anyway.
So, it's set in an alternate universe where everybody in the same age group and gender look the same, dress the same, ect, but all the people have the ability to recognise who is who. My main character believes what people are told about everyone looking and being the same, like everybody else seems to. However, there are alterations in her appearance which makes her different from everyone else around her - she didn't know this was possible. It will probably be due to some unheard of (by most) disease where a persons appearance mutates to make them different - or maybe something else, but this is the idea I have now. She will get killed if she gets found because she would stop everybody from looking the same, which isn't what society wants, and her parents know they will be killed if they keep her and hide her, so they kick her out and she has to run away. She discovers that people in the world aren't all the same and that society has been lying to her. As she runs away, a group of people find her and take her in. This group of people live in an underground or hidden society because they are all different; either for reasons they can't help or their own personality choice. They function as a society just like a town. I have an idea that one of the main people in that group will be a very funny character with various piercings, blue or turquoise hair and a mohican and she will be one of leaders or something. I'm not sure of other things that would happen next, but the group would have to hide to not get caught and found by the goverment, and some people in the group may have to fight. I think this story would also, in a way, sort of promote tolerance and acceptance of others and people who are different...
So, what do you think? Is it a good idea, or is it lame and stupid?
