Young Writers Society

The year is 2020. World War III is three year in, with no end in sight.

The Big Three are winning. The Big Three consist of China, Egypt, and Brazil. They've already literally destroyed Australia, all of central Europe, and almost all of the island chains, aside from Cuba.

The United States military is starting to weaken under the pressure. President Baker has been assassinated and Vice President Edwards has a hidden agenda. The war is being fought on American soil, something that hadn't happened in a very long time. All Americans, including women, have been called to arms. Children are almost abandoned, left with only teenagers to watch over them. Any sort of history that the Big Three don't approve of, they destroy.

There is a militia party that is ran by teenagers. Almost all of them are orphans. They are brutal in their force. They are whispered about, feared by everyone, enemies and allies alike. This party is known as the Vipers.

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Viper or Enemy: Viper!!

History: Natalie was born in Virgina Beach, Virgina. She was raised mostly by her aunt, due to her parents both in the Navy. Her parents made her take marksmanship and mixed-marshal-arts lessons as she grew-up. Her aunt forced her to be fashionable and a girly girl, but on the inside Natalie was a tomboy through and through. When rumors came about the war starting, her parents sent her a letter, containing information and contacts from Russia and England. When she received word that her parents were dead, she joined the Vipers, became revengeful, blood-thirsty, and a killing-machine.

Vices: Her Russian friends pay her in Vodka, so she loves to drink. Known for punching the daylights out of people that call her Natalie, she goes by Nate and only Nate. She also smokes cigars to calm her nerves.

Other: Up for love, if anyone will look past her dark-personality.

I'll join, will post the profile later.

One question, though; Why isn't Austrlia on the list though? I know you said it was practically destroyed, but still. There has to be some somewhere.... Just curious...

Name:
Ingrid Parker

16

Female

Viper

Ingrid watched her mother and father as they were slain in front of her eyes. She heard their last screams as their throats were ripped out by enemy soldiers. Since that day Ingrid has sworn vengeance against her mothers and fathers killers. Her sister Rosalyn though, is still alive and Ingrid is trying all she can to find her sister.

Personality:
Ingrid is rather quiet since the incident keeping to herself most of the time and it really rare to see her smile. She is always thinking ahead planning herself and trying to keep patient. She often turns people away with her coldness, making her even more alone.

Appearance:


Weapon of Choice:
Ingrid uses anything to fight back enemies though the one thing she always has on her is her grandfathers sword which she took when she found his remains with the sword next to them.


Vices:
Ingrid cannot stand the sight of blood, before she was not squeamish now whenever she even sees someone cut she will breakdown and cry or go on a frenzy hurting anything and anyone that gets in her way! Though in saying this she can kill faster than most and is a very very bad enemy to have against you!

Other:
Up for love.

About the austalians, there are very few left. If you'd like your character to be one, you can

Name: Regan McManus



Age: 18



Gender: Female



Viper or Enemy: Viper



History: Regan grew up in Boston. Her parents were Irish Americans, proud patriots of both nationalities. She was home schooled by her mother. Regan was also schooled in fighting. She's always been a scraper, especially with her three older brothers, Sean, Connor, and Aidan. When things started getting bad, her parents started collecting all kinds of weapons. They hid them almost eighty feet under their basement so no one but them could find them. When the US started drafting for the war, her father and brothers went into the service. Her mother stayed behind with her and they worked as nurses for a while. When they weren't working as nurses, her mother and her trained for hours and hours. Two years into the war, there was an attack in Boston. Her mother was out finding wounded soldiers and she was attacked by the Chinese, raped, and killed. When Regan found her, she vowed revenge. She found a man named Cory Cossack, who was the starter of the Vipers. She trained and worked her way up the ranks and is now a General in the Viper clan.



Personality: Hard and passionate about everything she does. She has amazing endurance in some of the worst situations. When she kills people, she does something she saw in a movie, "The Boondock Saints". She takes out her rosary and prays for their souls and puts pennies on their eyes.



Appearance: http://dejnaa.deviantart.com/art/innocent-51638492



Weapon of Choice: Two 45 caliber pistols with silencers on the end. Sometimes she carries six.



Vices: She smokes a lot, and enjoys a drink or two every once in a while.



Other: She has three tattoos: One big one with a viper on her back with it's mouth open, and venom dripping from its fangs. Her second is an Irish flag blending in with an American flag, and her third is small around her wrist that says "Don't Tread On Me" with a small coiled snake.

Okay. I'll be an Aussie....cause I already am. lol.

Anyways, here's my profile.

Name: Paige Winters.

Age: 19.

Gender: Female.

Viper or Enemy: Viper.

History: As one of the few remaining Australians, Paige moves around a lot. She once had a large family from all over the globe and when she was 15, Australia was wiped off the map. Paige soon realised that she couldn't stay in what used to be Australia so she travelled across the sea to America to find this group called the Vipers. After two years of searching, she finally came across them-or rather they came across her. She's been with them for about 2 years now.

Personality: Paige appears to be quiet and shy, until you put a weapon in her hands and point her in the direction of the enemy. On the battlefield, Paige is dangerous-you don't want to get in her way.

Appearance: Tall with light brown hair and pale grey-blue eyes, Paige appears to be innocent-until she's gets close and you realise there's a dagger at your throat.

Weapon of Choice: Paige always carries a gun and a dagger: Beretta 9mm pistol. And a dagger.

Vices: She likes to drink Scotch, her father's favourite drink and she often gets drunk because of it. She doesn't care what brand, as long as it's strong. Paige also tends to smoke while drunk.

Other: Up for love. Has a scar across the base of her neck. Paige can't remember how she got it. This scar is almost always covered by her hair.

I'll give this one a go. It sounds like fun.

Name: Sasha (Sash) Kozlov

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Viper or Enemy: Viper

History: Sasha comes from a Russian-American family. He is a loyal and legal US citizen, but he is also very proud to be Russian. He was born in 2001, and vaguely remembers what life was like before the war. As a kid, he was a bit lazy, tough, careless, and, frankly, rather thick in the skull (luckily he grew out of that, for the most part). Nevertheless, he was a good kid at heart, or so his mother used to say. As soon as the war broke out, he was determined that America would be on the right, and, more importantly, winning side. When things started to go pancake-shaped, Sasha joined the Vipers, and ever since has been beating up baddies for the cause.

Personality: Sasha is very brusque at times, and often acts rashly. He has a very itchy trigger finger, and likes nothing better than a good brawl. Despite this, he’s very proud and has a strong sense of right and wrong... although his morals sometimes get a bit hazy after a drink or two. On his more pleasant side, he loves a good joke, black coffee, mint chewing gum, and action movies. When he’s in a good mood, (which is most of the time, actually,) he’s not a bad guy to hang around with.

Appearance: Tall, wide in the shoulders and has a considerable amount of muscle, as anyone would have under the circumstances. He has dark hair and dark eyes, and very white teeth. He usually wears his favourite black leather jacket wherever he goes, but only wears it for style. Although, truth be told, he has become rather fond of the thing.

Weapon of Choice: He’s armed to the teeth. Need I go into all of it? Really? Well, Okay then...

Sasha likes his old-fashioned semi-automatic rifle, Uzis or machine guns of any sort, (if he can lay his hands on some) plus a 9mm handgun and a glock that he keeps on him at all times. He also keeps a jackknife in his pocket and a straight razor in his shoe. (‘Cause he’s bad, bad Leroy Brown...)

Vices: Hubris: noun – excessive pride or self-confidence; arrogance. I think that pretty much says it all.

Other: Up for love, of course.

Name: Dylan Somersby

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Viper or Enemy: Viper

History: Dylan's father was American, his mother Australian. He grew up being told that one day he would see his mother's side of the family, as soon as they got the money together to go and visit. He had a fairly normal family, though they were far from well off, and there were moments when his parents only just made ends meet. His parents, his twin sisters, and even he himself, were all very optimistic about the future, and there was always the shadow of a plan to move out of their small town and head out to the big city. Things went south pretty quickly after the war started, though. His mother committed suicide shortly after learning that her family had been squashed like flies, along with the rest of Australia, and Dylan's father was killed off the coast of China only days after finishing his training. He sent his sisters north to Canada, since America seemed to be being attacked from all sides by the Big Three, but their bus was hit by a stray bomb during an air raid, and one was killed, the other sent to hospital in a critical condition. Dylan went looking for the Vipers immediately afterwards, figuring that if anyone was going to be able to scare the enemy into getting out of his country, it would be a bunch of feral teenagers with exaggerated stories on their side.

Personality: He is loud mouthed, cheerful and very often obnoxious, mostly as a way of distracting himself from what has happened, and what still has to be done. When it comes to fighting, he knuckles down and pretends that he prefers to be on his own. The truth is, nothing makes him calmer than working in a small team, but he's constantly worried about people around him dying. He thinks he's cursed, due to everything that befell his family, and tries to keep the rest of the Vipers at an emotional arm's length because of it, especially when the enemy is particularly close.

Appearance: http://ruthsantcortis.deviantart.com/ar ... -143586984

Weapon of Choice: His family's bolt action rifle (a carefully maintained relic from World War One), and a pair of kukri knives that he looted from fallen Gurkhas.

Vices: Mild depression, a belief that he is cursed, and a combat attitude that can almost be called a deathwish.

Other: Up for love.

This sounds interesting.

Name: Rachel Andrews

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Viper or Enemy: Viper

History:She was orphaned when she was thirteen and since then had lived in the streets, with some relatives but none of her relatives could bear her, she was a rebel. Since her parents died she started going to parties, drinking, smoking. She has a brother Jason who was sent to some militia she wasn't aware of, but when he left, she promised to herself that she was going to make each and everyone of the people that killed her family and if anything happened to her brother, she was going to make that person suffer as much as she had.

Personality: She's sweet, charming, respectful,with good manners and very friendly. But since her parents died and her brother left, she changed a lot. She's now unpolite, rebellious, doesn't like to take orders and hates loud places. But deep inside she's the same girl with the only difference that the situations around her had toughened her up in the most cruel ways.

Appearance: She's tall, very tall and slender but curvy which means that has very feminine curves. She has beautiful tan skin and brown hair. She has greenish grey eyes with big eyelashes. To make it short, she has an exotic beauty that combines Latin and European.


Weapon of Choice: a type of Japanese sword sometimes called a samurai sword.


Vices: She smokes, not always but sometimes, and sometimes drinks, and, yeah,she's kind of troubled.

**I'll finish it later**

Name: Bettina De Felice

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Viper or Enemy: Viper

History: Bettina came to America with her mother, Lita who was an Italian pilot. She was following in her mother's footsteps until their base was bombed. There were little survivors and the only reason Bettina did was because she was running a message between bases. She was heartbroken and depressed and finally built up a shell around herself. She joined the Vipers when she finally saw for herself what was going on on the field as she flew over in her bomber looking for survivors.

Personality: Bettina's tough and independent. She holds justice over mercy and has a very black and white perspective of things. She's not one to display her feelings and she's pretty blunt and very crude. She won't listen to orders unless she respects the one giving them and though revenge does not fuel her fire, she's still out there for her mother. She has a quick temper and she's kind of impulsive. She's creative and bold and makes decisions that might not be so popular with the majority group.

Appearance: bout 5'6'' and muscular with a dancer's build. She has very layered short brown hair and amber/brown eyes. She puts forth a pretty imposing image. She wears whatever and couldn't really care how attractive she is. She's just concerned about what gets the job done.

Weapon of Choice: She's a fighter pilot. However, if need be, she's a pretty decent marksman.


Vices: She can get very jealous and won't stand for being second best. She's always trying for the gold and won't stop until her opponent is completely out of the game.

Other: Up for love.

We'll start when we have one or two more guys I'm pretty pumped for it! I think it's gonna be a good one!!
