"It's time to awaken."
Within every living organism there is a organelle kown as Mitochondria found in every Eukaryota cell that lies dormant. The Mitochondria controls the cell cycle and growth and without it could cause many problems for the living organism or even death. But what happens when you have too much of the Mitochondria organelle or all of the organelle awakened at the same time? In 2019 a virus went airborne in Chinatown, New York known as the Varicella Zoster, at first it was diagnosed as Chickenpox but then more people started to get infected with new symptoms making doctors and scientists wary of the Varicella Zoster. The new symptoms resulted in many deaths as they would include random combustion, odd unknown swellings, and suffering of the body where the living organism would still be breathing but the physical body itself was nearly dead. The new scare caused many to flee the town but only to realize that the virus was spreading all throughout the state. Scientists discovered that this new virus was awakening Mitochondria organelles and producing new ones, there was little anyone could do. Government stepped in blocking all ties to the state, no one was allowed to leave or enter. Official personnel roamed the streets in body suits burning all infected bodies that no longer were capable of moving or that were just simply dead. Those who were still alive were forced into homes with others like them with curfews. After weeks of the infection no cure was found and nearly half of New York was dead. Officials sent out a message that a cure was on it's way and that everyone was to stay in their homes for the next three days, not only were they to stay in their homes but they were required to write the number of how many were living in the house on the doors. People did as they were instructed but when the third day approach someone made the brave attempt to step out. Officials were gone, more people were dead and the city was left in silence.
2022, three years has passed since the first outbreak of the Varicella Zoster virus and more than eighty percent of New York is dead. Survivors (You) have managed to say alive for three years somehow either it be a miracle or just by chance. Now when you thought things were bad enough things got worse on a critical level. The Varicella Zoster virus is still around and has gotten stronger, animals have mutated and are attacking anything in site. Even people have mutated in odd ways, though it is hard to determine if they still have control or not making them something for others to avoid. How can someone survive in a place like this? Is something causing this and was it really the Varicella Zoster virus all this time? What is the next move...

This RP is based on the Original Parasite Eve but is not the game itself. This is also one of my favorite games of all time, I had this when it first came out. Warning: Not for sensitive people.

Your Story;
You are a survivor from Binghamton, New York or the neighboring Johnson City. There is no doubt that everyone and thing has been affected by the Varicella Zoster virus but some have shown less symptoms than others due to the Mitochondria organelles still being partially dormant. Time is running out for you and it's up to you to make a choice; Find a Cure, Escape New York or Get to the Bottom of this Whole Mess. But none of it will be easy and near impossible to do yourself. Go find any other survivors who may want to join you and complete your goal.
Mitochondrial Disaster;
There is no denying it, the Mitochondrial disaster is unavoidable! While these cells are being awakening due to the Varicella Zoster Virus, people are bursting into flames. There are only 2% of the remaining population (40%) in New York that have appeared to be unaffected yet. There are five stages of the Mitochondrial Disaster.
Unawakened Stage: The organelles have not yet been awakened within you. Your trigger is unknown and they could awaken at any moment, especially when you least expect it.
Stage One: The Mitochondria Organelles are just awakening! Stage One known symptoms include the following:
>Constant Headaches
>Abnormal Warmth of the Body
>Rashes (Specifically Caused by Varicella Zoster Virus aka Chickenpox)
Stage Two: The organelles have been officially awoken, one wrong move could trigger Stage Three faster than a blink of an eye. During Stage Two you should be very cautious of your moves. Symptoms include:
>Random Combustion (Avoidable)
>More Aware of Surroundings
>Crawling Sensations (Like Bugs are Crawling Under your Skin)
>Migraines
>Slight Vomiting
>Tightening of the Stomach
>Decrease in Appetite
Stage Three: Is it possible Death is around the corner? The organelles have taken full swing with your body and producing more Mitochondria. Few have survived Stage Three mainly due to suicide. Symptoms Include:
>Constant Sweats
>Bubbling of the Skin in a Brownish or Orange Like Color
>Increased Painful Vomiting
>Shortness of Breath
>Migraines
>Easy Tear of Flesh
>Joint Pain
>Decrease in Appetite or None at All
>Random Combustion (Avoidable, also less likely in Stage Three)
Awakened Disaster Stage: The time has come and you have fully awakened. Unfortunately for you, you are no longer human in a sense. All animals are in this stage as well. If you had a goal like finding a cure, you might as well give it up now as you have a new set of goals. Here are your choices; Escape the State and Spread the Virus, Go on a Killing Spree or Find Balance and Control within Yourself. Symptoms Include:
>Complete or Major Mutation
>Insanity
>No Control
>Heightened Senses
>An Ability
>Constant Pain
[spoili] To gain the chance to gain balance in control, you need to roll a dice. 1-5 You Failed 6-10 You Succeeded. If you don't have control then you are hostile and can attack other players, if you have control then you may work with other players or even fight of other Disaster Staged Humans or Animals. If you don't succeed the first time or in your CS, you will be granted another chance later in the story. If you did succeed, there are chances you may lose control which will be presented by the GM. Abilities can be super strength, speed, superior reflexes etc.

Weakness: What are you not good at?
Appearance: Describe your character including your symptoms, like where are the rashes. A picture can go here or above "Name" but there still needs to be a description. One Paragraph Minimum or Five Sentences. Please avoid "Anime" Pictures. If you are a Stage Five Mutation, remember you are barely even human anymore. If you need ideas, PM me.

(CS Possible to Change. Any questions should be asked through PM to keep the thread clean.)
Bonus Clips:
For those interested in mutations, here is a video to show you the idea of a human mutation though there is many different kinds. Some more severe tan others. This will also help you script out your posts better especially during transformation. WARNING: Don't watch if you are easily frightened. But then again why do you think it's in the Horror section?
How to make Gypsy happy and more likely to approve your CS: (Sorta Like Rules ;3)
1. Details and Spell Check. I understand English is not everyone's first language but try your best!
2. Active People. We all have a life, if you need to disappear let me know beforehand.
3. Proper punctuation and capitalization.
4. CS's are a decent size and come with good details.
5. No drama. I don't want to babysit.
6. Really badass and gross Mutations.
7. Respect everyone.
Added Details From Previous CS's to Keep in Mind when making yours! (And Growing)
>You can wear any protective wear including masks, but you are never safe from the virus itself!
> You are an ordinary human who got caught up in a terrible mess (Unless you are a mutant) so don't give your character too many weapons or gear as it will seem unlikely to get good gear unless you raided an Police Department or some type of abandoned official camp which would more than likely be swarming with Mutants both Human and Animal by this time.
