Exiled

It's the year 2244 the planet was invaded by a race of aliens known as the Luganda. Their plan was to colonize our planet and force us into reservations. The war lasted for nearly 200 years. The human race was able to fight off the Luganda and they left, but out planet had already greatly changed. The Luganda had brought plants and animals native to their planet and left them behind. These plants and animals were much more hostile then the ones the earth currently knew of. The climate had also been drastically changed allowing for massive storms to role through and diseases that had long ago become immune to the Luganda now ravaged earth.

Those that survived the war created Eden a set of three domes that would house the most elite humans in a attempt to reestablish the once great human race. Upon the construction a test was given to those everyone. Those that passed were given a ticket into the domes. Those that failed were left outside to deal with the Earth that no longer resembled out own.

Now

The largest of the Domes is known for housing those called the Elementary. This dome holds children from birth to the age of 18. Children never know their parents and aren't given last names. Those that are 13 to 18 look after the babies. In this dome tenements are built and four to five children will live in any one 2 bedroom apartment. During the day kids work in factories, plantations, and farms which provided food and clothing for all of the domes.

At the beginning of the year all those that are 18 must take a test. This three part test decides if a person makes it to the second dome. If they pass then they are given their last name and can enter the Elite dome where they will be given a job and a apartment to themselves.

If they fail they are exiled from Eden. They are still given their last name. On Exile day eight teens are loaded into a pod, which is ejected from the dome like a missile. The pod selfdestucts 5 minutes after it has been sent out. The pod is stocked with supplies to give the exiles a fighting chance. 3 guns, eight knives, and food for a week if rationed right.

You have just failed the test and are now being exiled. Good luck!

What you don't know is, the test is a test within itself. Your scores interested the Elites that makeup the tests. They chose for you to be exiled for a reason.

Celtic will now be overseeing this SB with me. Listen to her as much as you listen to me.

Name: Rya (Ra-ya)

Age: 18

Appearance: Rya has naturally long brown hair that she keeps tied back at all times. You'll also never see here without her goggles, she loves her goggles. Unlike the picture she doesn't have a tattoo on her arm. She does have fair skin though, and has a habit of bruising easily. She has a bit of a laid back slouch, but at the same time usually has her arms crossed over her chest defensivly.

She always looks like she's analyzing. What? No one can be sure. Some people often take a dislike to her because it seems she's analyzing everyone around her, making her seem stuck up.

She's got a scar on her lower back, not even she's sure where that came from. So it doesn't bug her. It does bug her when people see it, because it's fairly large. So they usually suspect some sort of abuse of fight to have happened.

Show her something the least bit technical and her eyes will almost literally sparkle, there is nothing she loves more then a fresh pile of techoligical junk to turn into a deadly weapon.

Personality: Rya is a strong spirited girl, although very quiet. She spends most of her time analyzing the world around her and how certain weapons will work in certain areas. For example, when she's in a clearing she knows long range makes for a good element-of-surprise attack, while a strong bladed sword makes for great hand at hand combat.

When it comes to socialising with people, she's not the greatest. Her idea of the best conversation is how to get the barrel of a gun short enough for easy storage, but long enough to fire acuratly. Or what shape an arrow-head should be.

She's not one to be a leader, she would rather hang in the back crowd and work on her latest great creation. She centers most of her focus around what she does best. Create to destroy.

Strong skills: Weapontry creation, hiding.

Weak Skills: Swimming, cooking, socialising.

Up for love:Duh, ya.

Potential: Tech. No questions asked, it's all she's really good at.

History: Even as a small child she was interested in creating amazing weapons. Because of this, she didn't have many friends. This didn't really bother her, her mind was to enloped in her work. She would create and innovate. To destroy. She would never hurt a soul herself. She just enjoys building weapons too much to think of much else. But after taking the test -which she failed- that got her exiled, she began to doubt herself.

She was certain she was smart enough to stay in the domes. Now she's not certain at all, she wonders if all these years she's spent working on what she does best were worthless, and that everything she had done was simple enough for idiots to make. She'll need a little bit of a pep-talk to get back on her feet. But once she's back, you can bet she'll be bigger and badder then ever.

Fun Fact: She's deaf in her left ear, and prone to dizzy spells.

Other: When she has her dizzy spells she just needs to sit for a moment, then she'll be fine.

Name: Cannon

Age: 19

Appearance:

Cannon has dyed black long hair that stretched to her lower back. She used to be blonde just like her twin, Iclisa, but she decided to look different so that people can recognize her from her twin. She wears a beanie, a black sleeveless vest and long shorts that stretched over her knees. On her beanie is the trademark of their sisterhood: a paw print.

Both of her arms are wrapped in bandages, and she wears a carpenter's belt where she hides most of her gear.

Personality: She is a contrast to her sister. She is strong spirited and highly independent. Cannon does not like to be seen vulnerable and is constantly arrogant. She often have difficulty trusting another person or getting help from them. She prefers being alone, and do anything she can to enter the dome.

Perfect. That is what she wanted in her task. She wants to complete things in the most perfect way. Because of her loneliness, she is usually less spotted in a group. no one minds if she has left or has entered a group, and she found various ways to accomplish that.

Strong Skills: knifing precision, ambushes

Weakness: Her own arrogance, surprises, and following orders

Potential: Scouting

History: She is the twin sister of Iclisa who was hinted though gossips and hearsays, members of a renowned family. Her sister never fell on the gossips but Cannon has. She had became ambitious, gain popularity and do anything what her suppose family were doing. However, that had not done her good.

Due to her egoism, she had failed the test while her twin entered the dome. Blaming herself, she tried to burn her arms as punishment making it a sign to do everything she can to meet her sister again. Now realizing that she won't face an Eden society, she transformed her egoism to persistence, adapting a cold sneer personality just to get what she wanted.

Funny fact: She has a love for puppies. When she sees one, her entire egoism sheds away and acts like a child playing with the puppy.

Name: Ender Katarn

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: Tall, tanned body. Has muscles, but isn't ZOMGWTH bulky. Wears long sleeve shirts under short sleeve shirts under long sleeve shirts and jeans/cargo pants. Doesn't like flashy/colorful clothes, rather, he opts for more relaxed or natural tones. Wears fingerless leather gloves when out and about. Dirty blonde hair, color changing eyes.

Personality: Fidgety, eager to assist. Loves to have fun, even while doing work. After certain incidences in his childhood, his 'bad' side (anger, sadness, depression, etc.) is almost completely locked away, and thus he has trouble being sad or mad or upset with anything or anybody.

Strong skills: Has an eye for battle (think Ender from Ender's Game...and NO, that's not where I got my character's name from >.> ); easy-going; finds it almost impossible to see the dark side of things; can make the best of what is around him.

Weak Skills: A heavy dreamer, will often zone out at the most inopportune times. Has a mild case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. When enraged he tends to be rash, though this is useful in battle.

Up for love: Meh. He doesn't really give a rip either way.

Potential: Soldier, though has a spritz of Scouting in him.

History: Ender always wondered what life was like on the outside of the Domes. He would live his life inside the Elementary Dome, going to school and doing what was expected of him; however, his mind was always exploring the intricacies and dangers of the outside world. When the time came for him to take his test, his desire to see the real earth along with his inability to concentrate well led him to fail the test, and be sent to the outside world - just as he had so long hoped for.

Fun Fact: Secretly wants to be a painter.

Other: Lives to explore and chop beasties things up while doing it. Weapons: His sword.

(Side note: Yay, seven edits to fix the errors my laggy internet made! :3 )

I will finish later.
Name: Clove
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance: Clove is 5'6" and lean. Her hair is red, shoulderlength, and unkempt. Uneven in places, as she cuts it herself and with a knife. She has fair skin, and her eyes are light brown, almost a soft gold. They, along with the shape of her face, soften her overall appearance. At first glance, Clove seems gentle; weak, even. Looks can be deceiving. She tends to wear a lot of dark browns and reds.

Personality: Clove is kind and likable - when things go her way. She's one of those people who is incredibly independent, and if a group of people she's with is doing something she doesnt agree with, she will argue, desperate to have the last word, and do what she wants regardless. She's very sound otherwise, and philosophic. She'll reflect on life often, talking about it with whoever is nearest. In fact, anyone who is nearest to her will hear her think out loud to them, which usually leads to long conversations. She isn't too serious, as it may appear, but definitely not completely silly.
Strong Skills: Survival, cunning, fighting, running, hiding, improvising, enjoying the little things.
Weak Skills: Getting along with others, taking orders, admitting when she's wrong, holding her tongue, getting her points across to others, knowing when to stop talking.
Up for love: Yes
Potential: Shooter
History:
Fun Fact: When Clove blushes, her cheeks turn slightly red, and her ears are more red than a flaming bloody tomato.
Other: Longbow and arrows:

*Dances*

Oh...I wanna claim the last fem spot if possible! Old exile!

Name: Catriona Phillips (Cat)

Age: 20

Gender: Female

Appearance: She has really long hair. I mean long. It was blonde before the exile, but its red now, bringing out the fire green of her eyes.

Personality: Catriona is smart. She is always quick on her feet and quick to make plans. She has a bit of a loner quality, but she can work with others. She has a protective streak, but she tries to demolish it with a cold heart. She is nearly the only survivor of the group she was exiled with two years prior. The only other survivor, Jess, disappeared about a months ago. *Anyone can take him if they want him. Figured it would be interesting*

Strong skills: Cat has always been smart. She is quick on her feet and always coming up with plans. She is a survivor.

Weak Skills: Cat has a bad temper, short and nuclear. There are times when she wishes she could just give up, but she know that if she does, she fall prey to the dangers around her.

Up for love: If you can woo her then go ahead, but she really fell hard for Jess.

History: She was exiled two years prior. Cat and Jess, the only other survivor of there group, were seperated a month ago after he disappeared.

Fun Fact: she has slightly pointed ears.

Other: She sings? She carries a knife on her at all times. It is made from the bone of one of the creatures she killed. She can be very deadly with it.



Also, she wears skintight leather pants and a leather bra. Thats it. She has a knife belt strapped to her waist wear she has a variety of weapons. She refuses to carry a gun, and she has various other weapons located on her body that are hidden.

Hey Bish. I'm in. Female new and male old. I'll try to get the profiels up tomorrow sometime... And I can change genders if you want.

Edit: Profiles. Sorry it took so long.

New Exile:

Name: Eliza Brooks.

Age: 18

Gender: Female.

Appearance:

Personality: Eliza, or Liz as she's often known, is somewhat shy and quiet. She tends to try to avoid people--well as best she can anyhow--and often prefer to be alone. But, if she likes someone, she won't go off into hiding and will do anything to take revenge if the person she likes is harmed. She's a little vindictive and has a nasty temper, if she ever loses it. Eliza can be extremely loyal to someone once they've gained her trust and she hates to see them ro anyone else hurt, despite her dislike of crowds. She can be friendly or not depending on the situation and the people around her.

Strong skills: Long Range Combat, tracking, sneaking around, hiding..

Weak Skills: Close Combat; She really is hopeless at it. Cooking, hunting/gathering. Social skills--she really lacks those.

Up for love: Yes.

Potential: Scouting.

History: Eliza grew up in the Elementary dome, like pretty much everyone else. She had a pretty normal childhood--if you can call being chased around by the others kids normal. Then she turned 18, took the test and failed. She's now exiled and after escaping the pod, kinda lost.

Fun Fact: Eliza tends to hide up high if she feels threatened, so you're more than likely to find her up somewhere high, especially when she's trying to avoid someone.

Other: Has a dagger tucked into her belt.

Singer you can't have a old unless you have a new

@PhoenixBishop - Is there no way we can have only an old exile? Because I would really like to join as an old but I don't know if I would be able to commit to two characters .... if it's a definate no then I might join with two anyway, I guess.

If no, I'll make two male profiles, one old, one new, probably up in the next few days.

It would be better to have the two, but I do not wish to stress anyone with two characters if they are unable to do it. I did this because if I left it open then everyone would make old exiles and they'd all be kick butt soldiers. That would get rather boring.

It is up to you. We need males badly so I will wave the rule just this once. But it would help to have two males as one needs to be in the New group and the other be with Scar's soon to be posted character.

Overall it is up to you. Whatever you think you can take on.

Yes, I see what you mean ... I will think about it - but now that the possibility was raised I have an idea for a new exile! So maybe I will join with two males anyway. Definately the old exile but I might make the other aswell. Thank you

Oops! Sorry! Ill make a newbie then:) Male since were runnin low! *isnt it funny how everyone always wants to be a girl?*

Name: Lachlien MacAffie

Age: 18

Gender: male

Appearance:

Personality: Lachlein is a quiet guy. He doesnt talk much since he tends to end up in fights when he does. He perfers to work by himself, but has a nach for healing.

History: Grew up in the dome. Kept to himself most of the time. He guessed on the test just so he coul dget out, not carring if he survived. Now hes out here and wants to live.

Potential: Medic

Up for love: yup

Fun fact: Hes a marshmellow for girls.

Other: He has two curved swords he keeps strapped across his back in sheaths. Handy with a swrod, but even better with herbs. (medicine)

I'll make a second character. this one will be an old exile

name: Gryk

Age: 25

Appearance: he has long red hair that somewhat turn to curls at the tips. He is 5' 7", and usually wears a long loose brown cloak. His arms and legs are covered in bandages and the most feature that can be recognized is the immense hump that is almost shaped like a baby in a fetal position. Despite his age, his facial featured resembled that of a man in his late thirties.

Personality: A hunter at heart, he works alone and prefers that way. He avoids any teamwork with anyone, and would only team up when his weapons had been compeltely destroyed. he had also a sudden surge and passion for the hun, and occassionally hunt creatures and sometimes other survivors to feed his pleasure. Once killed, he used the victim's body to decorate his weapons.

Strong Skills: puppetry. The hump on his abck is actually a large humanoid puppet that is attached to his skin, and he used it as his main weapon and defense.

Weak skills: since he usually works in the shadows, fighting him close hand would be a disadvantage but Gryk often comes up with plans. His main weakness is when his prey properly counterattacks him and damages his weapon.

up for love: nah. he loves his weapon more than anything.

history: Since he was a kid, he had envisioned himself to create the perfect human or humanoid and often stayed at night or tried to avoid working in order to make his vision a success. yet, despite his talent, he has no respect for teh rules and the otehr children and he would often fight with them just to get what he want. When he was exiled, he was actually happy since he couldn't think living in the utopian society they called eden. Instead, he spent his life in the forest adaptinga nd perfecting his art.

fun fact: he had designed the puppet to look like the female of his dreams.

Is there room for a male soldier?
