<em class='bbc'>‘It is the beginning of the end for me, and yet, it’s all so beautiful...’</em><strong class='bbc'> Tessa pondered as she collapsed. It had been a rough fight for her, and her long, stringy brown hair- usually the colour of an autumn sun shining through the leaves of a dying tree- was spread across the ground, like a dark halo, and in the middle of that halo, a small, shrunken face; a pale and gentle smile touched her lips. Tessa was staring up, softly laughing as the breath escaped her lips, and her violet eyes searched the skies for an answer, for the reason behind the hidden atrocities that had just occurred, but even the skies had no answer.</strong><br />

<strong class='bbc'>Tessa whimpered, and released a soft breath, her eyes fluttered closed, and the light left her face, her body collapsed onto itself. She looked like a young child’s doll thrown onto the moss ground, a body without a life.<br />

But, as quickly as she had given up, a thought had entered her fragile mind, a thought of love, and friendship, and everything she had given her life for. Her bunkmates, her friends, the only people who understand her. With great strength and power, she opened her eyes and rose to her knees, not allowing herself to draw upon any other energies. She raised her eyes to look piercingly upon the devastation.</strong> “I will not give up here, I will continue...”<br />

<span class='bbc_underline'><em class='bbc'><strong class='bbc'>Description:</strong></em></span><br />

Based in a modern-day time period, many high schoolers and college students have been being kidnapped and taken to a special “school”. These students have special powers, and each of these powers comes with a price, the more dangerous the power, the higher the price.<br />

A man, called the professor, by the students, has been collecting all of these students for his evil purposes. These students have many places they can go, but they are isolated to the society. They cannot leave the school grounds, and if they attempt to they will be brought back, the second time, they will be killed.<br />

There are a few simple rules each student MUST follow:<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> Do not attempt to escape, serious punishment follows for those who do not follow this rule.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> If fighting occurs, both parties and any supporters of the fight will be subdued and serious punishment will follow. (And, assuming a fight breaks out, there is to be no god-modding.)<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> Students will be tested periodically to determine their academic skills and combat potency. If a student is deemed “under average” on any of these, the student will be eliminated. (This will rarely occur, and only with permission from the owner of said character. Used mostly for a plot twist, like a scary thing.)<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> If a student does not participate in group session, they will be placed in social exclusion and receive serious punishment.<br />

<br />

<span class='bbc_underline'><em class='bbc'><strong class='bbc'>Rules for you to follow:</strong></em></span><br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> Use parentheses outside of Roleplay, once we’ve begun. You can go ahead and ask questions or comment. <br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> Two characters maximum per person, one of them must be a main character, while the other can be used to add to the plot, but hopefully we’ll have enough going on to not need them. Please identify the main one.<br />

<strong class='bbc'><strong class='bbc'>-- </strong></strong>We are playing the DMs. Do not godmod. If we feel like we have to step in and invalidate your post, we will. If you get in a fight, do not specify if your attack hits, let the other player decide; however, that does not mean you never get hit, we are only mortal.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> If your power is strong, then you must have an equally strong drawback. This is not a drawback to other people, it must prevent you from doing something, whether controlling your character, or allowing your character to move.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> Cursing is okay, in an appropriate situation. Don’t go around and curse every other word. That gets annoying. <br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> And keep your posts long, a paragraph or 2 minimum. We’d like the plot to move, and the 2 sentences aren’t cutting it for us. No, that doesn’t mean we’ll be annoyed if you don’t make two paragraphs all the time, I respect writer’s block. But do your best.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> Be creative! Don’t have a bland character no one wants to play with. Don’t steal ideas from others. Have an opinion, have a good time. Just takes a little motivation to produce a masterpiece, work is not required.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>--</strong> We, being me and my friend VIIth Angel. We created this together, with me being new to this site. So, please be nice if I miss something, I’ve read the rules, and I assume my friend has too. We’re trying something new. (Not RPing, making an RP)<br />

<strong class='bbc'>-- </strong><span class='bbc_underline'>There are multiple groupings to choose from for your character. If you do not choose, then we will sort you into one.</span><br />

<br />

<strong class='bbc'><span class='bbc_underline'><em class='bbc'>Form to fill out: [Delete the stuffs in here]</em></span></strong><br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Character’s Name::<br />

::Gender::<br />

::Age::</strong><br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Group:: </strong>[The group is the 'type' of power your character has. Each group can have 4 members and 4 members ONLY. There are to be no overflow groups.]<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Power/Ability::</strong> [Remember, your power must reflect something with your personality, or affect it. Whether it’s passive or aggressive, it also must have a drawback the more dangerous the power, the higher the price.]<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Drawback to Power/Ability:: </strong>[This is the problem with having your power, a serious effect using it has. This is NOT your personality, and this is not a passive effect. If you have questions about this, feel free to ask.]<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Personality:: </strong>[A good description is required, because I get annoyed if I don’t know anything about your character. Take this part as the second vital-ist part.]<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Reason::</strong> [This is only needing to be used if the character has a large flaw in their personality springing from something in the past. And I swear, I don’t want the whole RP to made up of ]<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Appearance:: </strong>[Good description, we’d like to be able to say “I saw this person with the brown hair and eyes..” rather than refer to you by name when we’ve never met you. Do NOT post a picture, a picture AND a good description is okay. But just a picture is NOT acceptable.]<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Entrance Post:: </strong>[Whether you’ve been in here for a while, or they just brought you in, this would be your entrance post, so we can see your level. Obviously, ours are a bit large, we put a few days into this. So it’s all okay.]<br />

<br />

---------------<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Character’s Name::</strong> Tessaline Prin Merray<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Gender::</strong> Female<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Age::</strong> 19<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Power/Ability::</strong> Energy Manipulation- The ability to use the life energy of things around her, when using it the energy becomes visible, to look like a beam, or sword of light (or dark). When using a person’s energy, the person will be drained, as with a animal or plant.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Drawback to Power/Ability::</strong> The drawback to this power is mental. When Tessa uses her power, she opens her mind to be controlled by the energy of the organism. If she kills the organism while using the power, by draining it too far, or kills another organism, she will be controlled by the energy. As she gains strength with using this power, her mind will become stronger and the effects of smaller, shorter times using it will diminish, however, the threat will never disappear.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Personality::</strong> Tessa is a very shy person, she is afraid of human contact and won’t talk to other people. She is an introvert and a very quiet person. She has always been used to being hurt and insulted by others, so she has little temper, and is very hard to anger; however, when she does anger, she throws herself into the rage and can lose her control over herself. This has always scared her, and thus she is afraid of herself and anyone else with powers.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Reason::</strong> She discovered her power at 13, when she got angry with her parents and drew the power out of a spider on the nearby wall. The spider died, and she gained immense strength, and lost all control, killing her family and ending her up in here immediately. Since then, she will always blame her powers on herself, and the death of her family on her powers.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Appearance::</strong> Tessa is a beautiful girl, but her beauty is scarred by a great many things, such as the short scar on her cheek. She has bright violet eyes that sparkle with the radiance of the sun’s light. She has long, thick, brown hair that is darker at the roots than at the tips, due to her not going outside often anymore. Tessa is very pale, and underweight, as her bones are all too obviously seen. Her light, and radiance, that all people have is dimmed, and her beauty looks ruined, because of her treatment of herself.<br />

<strong class='bbc'>::Entrance Post::</strong><br />

<strong class='bbc'>Tessa opened her eyes and gasped, sitting up in bed. She had heard someone downstairs, and she was worried that there was another new ‘inmate’.</strong> <em class='bbc'>The poor sucker, they had no idea what they were in for. This was a place of horror, of anger, of fear... and a place for the dangerous people to be taken to. The ones who turned on their families, the murderers. The people like her, the broken ones. Here, they were called special, but she knew better, they weren’t special, they weren’t blessed. No, cursed was a better word for it. Tessa, at just the age of 13, had murdered her entire family, before collapsing. It’s not as though she meant to, she would never have hurt her mother, her brother...</em><br />

<br />

<strong class='bbc'>The thoughts were too painful. And she rolled over on the thin cot bed, closing her eyes and crying softly into the pillow. She had been here for 6 years, as they studied her and her reactions to anything and everything-- well, everything except social interaction. She refused to meet anyone else, because if she cared, and she slipped up, she could kill them. That was not acceptable in her mind.<br />

<br />

The boarding facility was good for one thing, all the freaks got to stay here and die slowly, away from society, where they couldn’t hurt anyone.</strong><br />

"Work for us?" The guard laughed. "Kid, why don't you ask your 'leader' what we want with you. She would know." He chuckled. "Just gotta be good and you can ask her." He said, with a yawn, "The professor... He saves people. He doesn't want to hurt you. You do it to yourself."

 

------------------

 

Tessa opened her eyes to see the professor. "Time to wake up...." He cooed, angering her. "I can't move sir, I'm so weak..." She said, as he pulled her out of bed, and a guard supported her. "Please.. Don't make me do this. I'll be killed!" She insisted.

 

"Oh no child... We wouldn't let that happen."

The guard grabbed him by the throat again as he hissed. "I won't be some pawn for a dude who has obviously lost any sanity that he may of had. No matter what i'll fight even if I have to fight my way through it. Sooner or later the dark will take back what he stole from it in the first place and shall the night be eclipsed by day." Struggling as he was brought of the room he was ready to bolt again but the familiar feeling of dread. 'I kill now to save more. To give others a chance just hear that all of you.' Musing to himself he looked at the guard with fury. "He kills when he believes they are nothing. I kill for a purpose even better than his at this point. You can try and break me but you can't tame the dark." Wiggling he was about ready to break out of the guards grip and start a little fight against the powerhouse. Of course what next happened had him wide-eyed. 

The guard dropped him near the training courtyard, where Tessa was now weakly standing, leaning against a pole. She was staring into the eyes of a man, roughly her height, with her energy flowing around him. It had only been a few seconds and she knew she couldn't walk, much less fight. "You see that?" The guard laughed, nodding towards Tessa. "Look what you got her into, no power, a ten minute brawl." He chuckled, looking over towards the professor who was watching, taking notes.

 

------

 

Tessa could see William and the guard at the corner of her eye. But they didn't matter to her. She learned her lesson. Don't go easy on her charges. Now she had to survive. The man threw a long whip towards her, and she moved, stumbling forward, but was caught on the back, and she fell to the ground. The whip was headed down towards her, and she just barely rolled out of the way.

 

Tessa was terrified. Her own power was being used against her. She could be killed any minute now.

Again a low growl came from William as he looked at the Guard with narrowed eyes with pupils shrunk down to the point you couldn't see them. "Let. Me. Go. You. Damn. MURDER!" His teeth meet flesh as he bit down on the Guard's hand ignoring the blood the best he could. Landing on all fours he looked ahead ready to launch at the Guard attacking Tessa. His body shook violently before the dark tendrils appeared around his hands making deadly claws before looking up. His eyes where tinted red the color he had to use to keep alive as he showed his sharp teeth tot he Guard using Tessa's energy. "Let play then!" Gleefully he shouted it almost as if he was to happy to murder the Guard in front of him. Rushing at the Guard they pushed to the ground with the energy vanishing while he held up one clawed hand. "Any last words before I rip out your heart?" He was mocking him, the Professor, and everyone else that could hear. The dark was about to prove how uncontrollable he really was well almost.

Tessa felt her powers return as the guard lay there, stunned into silence. No one reacted, Tessa looked at the professor, who seemed to be smiling. Tessa didn't feel the need to save that guy. But William couldn't go crazy again. Tessa couldn't handle it.

Tessa moved and grabbed William's shoulder. "Let go kid. He's not worth the pain." She said, with a gentle tug on his shoulder, all she could manage.

I'm gonna do a quick summary here. So others don't have to go read through.

 

Tessa and William got in a fight and collapsed the cafeteria.

William tried to escape and Tessa got punished for it.

Tessa is now trying to keep another fight from breaking out.

 

 

Now that was easy. ^.^
