Overview

Supernatural creatures do exist, living amongst and with the human race. Of course, not all of them are civil and even the ones who are 'cause trouble unintentionally. They are a danger.

And that's where the organization comes in. A secret agency , named Dusk, the government created to deal with and solve supernatural problems. They are like hunters, but they don't only hunt, they protect.

These people are better than any hunter/huntress. They have been specially recruited and trained for the job. And most of all, they are unique humans who have been genetically modified with supernatural blood injected in them.

With these powers, they are dubbed as DuskChasers for those who fear them and DuskGuardians for those who seek their protection, but to anyone and everyone they are called Vessels. The only catch for these people is that they are government property.

------------------------------------
The story will be centered around our eight protagonists as they build relationships, dreams, and complete missions.





  • [bg=#9c2a2a]
    [BCOLOR=#808080]Dusk[/BCOLOR]; The secret organization that was founded in the mid-1980's. It was created by the government to deal with any problems and or troubles having to do with supernatural creatures. Whether those problems include taking the bad ones down or protecting the good ones. Because after all, they are still considered citizens in the US.

    Their capital division lies outside the city of New York in a secluded area, not easy to find. The institute appears more like a large campus, but to anyone who might come by it, it's disguised as a unique military base. Not only is a workplace, but a home to the field agents, the vessels.

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

    [BCOLOR=#808080]Vessels[/BCOLOR]; The field agents who have been genetically modified with supernatural/mythic creature blood. Because of this, they have not only possess the inhuman abilities of the beast but their weaknesses as well.

    Though, this is the least of their problems. These people were specially recruited at a young(around 10 and up), specifically chosen from broken families,harsh standards and lives they can never go back to. And most of the time, they pick out those who've had an encounter with the supernaturals.

    Once they've recruited these people and modified them, they are no longer their own, but government property. With this reason, among others, they live in the base, train in the base, study in the base and more.

    To keep them in check whenever they disobey protocol they are 'disciplined'. Though, if they are unwilling to be punished for their actions, they have a second option and all it includes is the press of a button and intense pain for the disobedient Vessel. But it's rare to ever see this happen.

    Each Vessel has a tattoo that can be found on their body, it symbolizes the creature of the blood the held within them, along with their agent number(The smaller the number, the stronger they are.). The marking isn't only to be recognized, though, whenever the beast that they contain the blood of is in the vicinity, it burns, warning the agent of their presence.Or even if the creature was there once upon a time ago it.

    Lastly, they also gain code names. No, not the titles they are given by the folks they protect or hunt such as DuskGuardians or DuskChasers. These names are given to them by the agency based on their skills, powers, creature blood or even something memorable they had once done.

    --------------
    [BCOLOR=#808080]Office Agents[/BCOLOR]; These agents work within in the base, whether it be a doctor, technician, scientist, engineer, supervisor or more. However, unlike the Vessels, they are not superhumans. They're normal human beings, recruited in normal standards.

    Yet, most of these people do all of the behind-the-scene work and help support the Vessels with their missions or just help them in general. They still have been hired because of their high IQs, their intelligence. They are geniuses. And the ones in the high positions have superiority over the Vessels.

    The Captain
    His name is James Mulligan, but to everyone else he's just the captain of the capitol division. He can be seen as a rough man in appearance, but in reality, he's a warm person who knows when to show tough love. He knows just about everyone on a personal level.(FC: Paul Blackthorne)


    The Dock
    Margarette Brielle, she's the head doctor of the medical division and like the captain, she knows every Vessel as well. The main reason being because she sees over their health. Nonetheless, she is a harsh woman that strictly follows rules and regulations. (FC: Ruth Negga)


    Kooky Doctor
    Peter Alexandria is known as the kook doctor. He is a young genius who was recruited at a young age. And he has quite the fascination with supernaturals. Because of this, he always hangs around the Vessels.(FC: Devon Bostick)

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

    Besides having to work around supernaturals, there is another issue. Hunters/Huntresses.

    There are many types of this particular people. Most hunters/huntresses ride solo or with a group of two and more.

    Most of them hunt for the good of the human race, it is only natural that most of them would be human. Though, there are some hunters who aren't human at all, that are full blood supernatural. Which brings us to another type of hunters. Hunters who are supernatural bounty hunters. It's as exactly as it sounds.

    Lastly, there is the worst kind of hunters. Those who poach and sell supernaturals. They are the biggest threat.

    But none of these groups of hunters have legal backup nor approval. So they have a more difficult time doing their jobs than the Vessels.

    Unfortunately, Vessels run into many of these hunters/huntresses very often. And all three groups do not care for the Vessels in the least.

    [BCOLOR=#808080]The Seniors[/BCOLOR]
    They've been apart of Dusk longer and have been in and out of the field before. They have experience, more skill and have more flexibility with their powers. Lastly, they're a bit known among the supernatural/mythic community.


    [BCOLOR=#808080]The Freshmen[/BCOLOR]
    Fresh out of the academy. They do have control over their abilities but have yet to really test the limits and explore it. They've never been out of the field before, so the only experience, skill, and knowledge they have are from studying, training and simulations.

    1.Treat everyone the way you'd like to be treated.If I have to spell it out, please be kind and respectful to one another. No one likes a douche.

    2. Respect the GMs. This is my idea and what I say goes, I'll have many things to do to keep the story going interesting. Of course, I will ask you guys for permission with things that include your character. This should not be a problem.

    3. Use the CS that I provided. I don't mind if you add more details that you want to put in, so as long as you fill out all that I handed you.

    4. I don't want more members of one sex over the other. I'll only make an exception if some want to do a same sex couple,if that's case, tell me. So, when you reserve your character, state it's gender along with whether they're a Senior or Freshmen.

    5. Romance is encouraged, but that should not be the only relationship built around your character. Friendships, rivalry, frenemies are all there too.

    6. Pre-planned couples are allowed, just let me know beforehand. And don't make it an insta-love. Give it some time,that goes for all couples,planned or not.

    7. If things get hot and heavy, take it to PMs or fade to black. I don't want any of that on the roleplay thread, thankyouverymuch. And I don't think it's necessary to add 'keep within your age group'.

    8. Gain permission before you maim someone's character. I don't want any problems. No godmodding or Mary/Gary sues either.

    9. Posting minimum is two small paragraphs, but it would be greatly preferred, and recommended, if you wrote more than that. I understand if you're stumped, but that shouldn't be if things go along smoothly.

    10. If you read the rules type at the top of your character sheet "Team 13" as a header in any color and font you like.

    11. You have to post at least twice a week. I know we're all busy, but I want to keep this roleplay going and alive. If you don't think you can do it,you can leave now and not in the middle of it. There are others who would like to join so you don't have to feel bad.

    12. I'll give your CS a 'Cookie' if it's approved.

    13. If you have an idea for an episode/arc, PM me! If you have an idea for anything just Pm. And if you have a question, ask! Don't stay confused.

    14. Lastly, this roleplay will include things such as violence, explicit language(mainly cussing), and other non-child friendly topics.

Yep, that's what I thought. I'll mostly likely have mine after you two.Hopefully, I'll have it in tomorrow.

But I am so excited to see your characters I don't feels bad about procrastinating.
 
Creation's going by pretty slow for me, however, I'm thinking about my character having Chimera blood.

Something I'm pretty sure I've never done before.

    → HEIGHT ?
    Scout's not strikingly tall, standing at about 5'5".

    → WEIGHT ?
    His frame is lithe, not petite, but far from built, weighing in at about 125 lbs.

    → HAIR ?
    His hair is a shade of dirty blond, and never fails to be messy. It's texture is curly, wavy, and overall just wild. He rarely bothers to get a brush through it because he always breaks them.

    → EYES ?
    Scout has been told he has puppy dog eyes, a shade of warm brown, but they sometimes appeal a hazel, golden color in the right lighting.

    → SKIN ?
    Scout is just slightly tanned, with an assortment of freckles on his face and shoulders; although they're not noticeably prominant unless you're close.

    → SCARS & MARKINGS ?
    He has various scars across his body from past experiences, and training incidents. His most prominent, however, is a thin, long scar that goes up his abdomen. When he's on the hunt, he wars skull face paint. Who knows why.

    → PIERCINGS ?
    None.

    → TATTOO ?

    → DRESS ?
    Scout always dresses lazy, but always manages to pull it off. Skinny jeans and hoodies, sweatpants and t-shirts, if it's comfortable, Scout will wear it; whether or not it actually matches is a whole other question. When out on a mission, he's much the same; but often chooses to wear black skinny jeans, a black hoodie, a pair of boots, and face paint. It's "kind of his thing."

    → PERSONALITY ?
    In short, Scout is not a very serious person. He's very playful, he likes to have fun with things, and he has no problem jumping into someone's personal space to get on their nerves. It's what he does best, he likes to act painfully oblivious just to piss people off. Snarky and witty, Scout's mouth never stops running - like, ever. The boy is always talking, laughing, so very animated in everything he does that you just want to slap him upside the head and tell him to sit the fuck down, ironic, considering he looks like he'd be very sluggish. This works as both an advantage and a disadvantage for him, his inability to hold still for long makes him insufferable on stake outs, but when there's action? That boy can go. Don't let appearances full you with Scout, he may act stupid and oblivious, but in reality, he's extremely smart and quick minded, another one of his strengths. He's often underestimated. Scout is quick to jump to conclusions, quick to panic, an overall very emotional person, but once you give him a moment to come back down to Earth, he will. Stubborn, tell him to not to do something, he'll go out of his way to do it - a sense of adventure that could get him killed. Confident, but not cocky, snarky, but not unbearable, an idiot, yet not truly; you have to get to know Scout before you draw a true conclusion on his character. Because what seems like an idiotic slacker with a motor mouth is actually the guy who could kill you with a paper clip and a toothbrush.

    → LIKES ?
    + Sugar. (I wouldn't suggest actually giving him some.)
    + Caffeine. (Again, for the love of God, no.)
    + Any sort of long ranged weapons.
    + Art.
    + Upbeat music.
    + Those who can take a joke.
    + Green eyes.
    + Flirting, although he's god awful at it.
    + Animals.
    + Nature.


    → DISLIKES ?
    - His real name, he'll kill you if you use it.
    - Mentioning Peyton.
    - Gore, or unnecessary death.
    - "Know it all"s, those who think they can boss everyone else around.
    - The cold.
    - Big crowds of people.
    - Being underestimated.
    - Large bodies of water.
    - Anything that would harm a witch, such as fire, water, etc.


    → HOBBIES ?
    - Reading and art.
    - He enjoys running, like track, but when he's actually forced to do it he'll groan as obnoxiously as possible.
    - Getting on people's nerves.
    - Making blanket forts and then using said forts to hide from responsibility.


    → HABITS ?
    - He cannot sit still, he has to always be tapping something, moving something, always.
    - Bites his lip when he's nervous or thinking.
    - Paces when he's worried.


    → FEARS ?
    - Loosing those he has left.
    - Opening up.
    - Death.


    → INSECURITIES ?
    - His real name.
    - Being underestimated.
    - Feeling stupid/weak.

    → BLOOD ?
    Witch.

    → CODE NAME ?
    Wicked.

    → AGENT NUMBER ?
    10.

    → POWERS/ABILITIES ?
    Scout's abilities are mostly mental, and do not effect his strength.
    - Procognition: Scout can tell when events will happen before they actually happen, but it's mostly gut feelings or intuition. He rarely sees actual events fold out before him, but rather, he can sense it just before it happens. (Such as catching a glass just before it hits the ground; this also makes him agile and swift, since he can see the enemy's moves beforehand.)
    - Telekineses; He has yet to fully control this, and it's largely tied to his emotions rather than sheer will. (Mirrors can crack when he's angry, candles can go out when he's upset, however, it's never much more powerful than this.)
    - Hexes: In a broad sense, he can use his ability to fuck people over. Hallucinate, mess with their dreams, drive them crazy. The stronger the person is mentally, the harder it is to do so. (Scout doesn't like using this anyways.)


    → WEAKNESSES/LIMITATIONS ?
    - Horrible migraines: Of course, with this much mental activity, it's bound to leave Scout curled up on the floor trying to tear his hair out.
    - Terrible pain tolerance: So much as a cut can slow Scout down, his pain tolerance is down right shitty.
    - Hallucinations: He sometimes sees visions from the witch he had gotten the blood from, he sees her in his reflection for a moment, he hears her memories, her voice, gets images of her life. He gets weird senses of deja vu. The visions can be so intense, he'll pass out.
    - Lack of physical strength: To put it simply, when face to face in a real fight, Scout will get his ass kicked.


    → TALENTS/SKILLS ?
    - Anything mental.
    - Mind games.
    - Flexible.

    → HISTORY ?
    It's no shocker that Scout came from a shitty life, like everyone. He doesn't dwell on it, in fact, to him, his history is just "whatever." He likes to compare it to old, cheesy child hood stories. Scout's life was relatively okay, until he was about seven. Both his parents, on the way home to pick him and his sister up from a friend's after a night out, passed away in an accident. Scout didn't quite understand it at the time, other than his babysitter's crying, and all he wanted was his parents, that he wanted his sister to stop crying. Why was everyone crying? He didn't know.
    Unfortunately for Scout, his only living family was his father's bitch of a sister, who had an awful heroin addiction; so obviously, they were not placed in her care. They were sent to an orphanage, ironically, a Catholic one, with strict religious teachings. Scout grew up lonely, often separated from his sister in an attempt to 'separate the sexes', growing into a shy, nervous boy under the care of the orphanage. Taught to hold his tongue, to only speak when spoken to, he was an easy target for bullying and an easier target for abuse from the other boys. Pushed around, beaten for his share of food, called everything from 'loser' to 'faggot', Scout learned to accept this as life. Until his sister was to be adopted, and they would loose one another forever.
    Peyton was the one to devise a plan to escape, and they had nearly been caught, but eventually ran into the night, hand in hand, away from the orphanage, away from the thought of life without each other. They were extremely close; after all, they were they had left of their family.
    For awhile, they were homeless, staying in Youth shelters across the state, sleeping on park benches, getting by just barely. It was when Scout was thirteen that they were approached the organization. A warm bed? Appetizing food? A roof over their heads? They needed no more persuasion, coming to the organization quite willingly.
    For awhile, everything was well. Both he and his sister were injected with the blood, he with wiccan, she with werewolf. They didn't mind, they were just happy to not be hungry for once. While Scout's body took the foreign blood naturally, Peyton's didn't. At first, she was fine, in fact, she was showing amazing potential, but not for long. She grew sicker and sicker with each passing day, and Scout was forced to watch his only remaining family wither away before his eyes. It was worse than his parents.
    She had passed when he was fourteen, she, sixteen, and he has been determined to fight his way through training to make her proud. Since then, he had grown out of his shell; he's told that he resembles her more and more as the days go by.


    → RELATIONSHIPS ?
    Open to anything!

    → EXTRA ?
    tumblr_n4rmroTI781qjbpeso1_400.gif

    - Peyton Colt, the badass big sister that never got a chance. She was injected with werewolf blood, although her body rejected it after a month.
    - He has a slight Boston accent.
