OOC: As you may or may not know, I grow bored very easily. Thus, this is one of the reasons I have created this RP. Also, I found that my many of RPs have grown far to similar for my test, and as such I have decided to spend my snow day on writing this. I hope you enjoy it, because I actually thought about this one for more than 5 minutes before writing it! :lol: On the surface, Earthling society has been normal, having a neutrality in its senses of justice and morality. Humans have done great deeds and horrible endeavors, yet the balance between the two is always in perfect position, despite government scandals and the infamous Rosswell Incident. However, the supposed aliens of New Mexico pale in comparison to one single act, that appeared as a defiance to the Supreme Being. whether it be God, Mat, or Buddah, a group of humans have created what was thought of as the work of almighty creator: life. Scientists have always been curious as to see whether their art can one day develop actual human beings, seemingly the greatest experiment of all time. The government felt the same, and in 2000 on New Years Day, project Divine became a reality. The greatest scientists in the world were called together from their individual fields, whether it be physics, medicine, or chemistry, and hired for the single task of creating intelligent life. After many years of intensive experimentation, the scientists, now known as mortologists, did so in 2012, their success being the creation of Shells. Shells are an interesting beings, being made of synthetic bodies to make the "perfect" representation of humanity. Despite some with odd hair and eye colors, Shells were indistingishable from actual human beings. The use for such a creation would have been extremely high, since they could do the work for humans. Their presence would have been the talk of the scientific world, that is, if they were known. The government made sure that project Divine would remain a complete secret until the time was right, despite how it angered the mortologists. In the end, these brilliant scientists agreed with the governments proposal, though this did not guarantee that no one would find out. A group of people known as the Bishops created a powerful organization by what they believed was the will of God, and discovered the secret of the Shells through interrogation. Believing that Shells were the greatest sin of mankind, they sought to eliminate them with the Holy Spirit itself. Roaming the streets at night, they began hunting down mortologists, hoping for any trail that might lead to the facility where the Shells were being developed. However, it was too late, the Bishops' efforts were in vain. To protect themselves and the Shells, the mortologists erased the memories of the Shells through hypnotism, and sent them all to an orphanage before the arrival of the Bishops. Now the chase insues, the mortologists wishing to reclaim their "children", and the Bishops desiring only to destroy "mankind's greatest sin". Factions Humans: The people of normal society, they are unaware of the presence of Shells or mortologists. Furthermore, the Bishops have not shown themselves directly to them, and thus a person does not realize that a Bishop might be walking right beside them. Because of the improved nutrition of the modern age, humans are actually quite physically capable for things not seen in the past, though do not go above the limitations of humans. Shells: Created with synethic bodies, Shells were once lifeless. However, their breath of existance came from the souls of the dead, which the mortologists implanted into them with the help of graveyard corpses. Yet, they do not exist as the dead person, but rather as their own state of being. Shells have perfect memory unlessed erased manually, and can learn a concept instantly. Despite this, however, their bodies are somewhat more fragile than normal humans. As a means of protection from the Bishops, Shells have two forms, Type A and Type B, both having completely different personalities from the other. Starting from Type A, one does not go into Type B unless willed to do so or from extreme fright. The Type B form looks much different from Type A, and is given enhanced attributes that are far greater than normal humans. Of course, a Shell does not know of any of this because of their erased memories, and simply believe that they are normal human who were orphaned by an unknown reason. Mortologists: The greatest minds the world has ever seen, mortologists are the sole creators of the Shells. With an intelligence exceeding the level of genius by an extrodinary amount, even a teenage mortologist is capable of inventing unique ways to get through any obstacle. Using this to their advantage, mortologists wield technologically advanced devices, developed specifically for fending against Bishops and reclaiming the Shells. Thinking of their creations as their greatest brainchildren, mortologists will stop at nothing to return the Shells back to the facility and continue with experimentation. Bishops: Bishops are a part of a secret organization which has been trained exclusively for the removal of Shells. Unlike their mortologist enemies, they use the powers of God, or the blessed of their weaponary. Equipped with divine swords and pistols, Bishops use prayers to endow their weapons with the ability of exorcism, allowing them to actually banish the stolen souls from a Shell's body and back into the corpse it came from. Bishops usually wear blessed glasses, which allows them to see the soul within a person. From this, Bishops sometimes refer to humans as blue souls and Shells as red souls, because of the color of their spirits when seen with the glasses. Though they wear white robes while hunting at night, Bishops live normal lives during the day. The leader of the Bishops is a Saint, determined by their great abilities and experience. Character Creation Name: Age: Faction: Biography: Appearance: Rules 1. No god moding. 2. No killing other characters without permission. 3. No one may become a Saint unless speaking with me privately. 4. No constant dodging or attacking. 5. No unprofessional behavior. |

Appearance: Mainly a black shirt, blue jacket, black pants, silver hair, and purple eyes. Sergei sits near the steps, looking around for something to do. |

Yuki falls over, suprised that someone had just pelted him with a snowball. He smiled happily, waving to Alaric as he stood up. Yuki: "Hi Alaric!" Yuki then came to the conclusion that Alaric had hit him with the snowball. "I'll beat you this time!" Yuki hid behind a car, preparing a few snowballs. around 10 seconds later, he had several under his arm, and was throwing him at Alaric as quickly as he could, though his aim wasn't very percise. |

Alaric ran behind a tree and began making snowballs, throwing them as he made them. As he was reaching down to make another, one of Yuki's hit him. "Gah!" Ignoring further snowballs he began rolling a large one, picked it up, and walked towards Yuki. "Ahaha!" |

Yuki dropped the snowballs in his arms as he saw the behemoth of one Alaric was carrying. He began running down the street as quick as he could, though he wasn't as fast as Alaric, laughing happily as he tried to escape the snowball. |

Alaric ran after him, once he was closer he threw the snowball. To his disappointment it didn't reach Yuki and just hit the sidewalk. "Aw... almost got you. We're near school anyways." |
