"There are 12 zodiac signs, and each sign has its own strengths and weaknesses, its own specific traits, desires and attitude towards life and people. On the basis of analysis and images of the sky, or the position of the planets at the moment of birth, astrology can give us a glimpse of a person's basic characteristics, preferences, flaws and fears."
These signs are the Zodiacs, 12 deities that rule over our known planets and help guide many humans towards their future.
For thousands of years, the Zodiacs have been in constant battle against each other in a war that is named by the humans as, "The Zodiac Legacy." This battle has put a little rift in the fabric of space, but they have always managed to keep it in line so humans will not notice a change in the atmosphere. Though, the Zodiac conflict does not appear to be making a huge hit on the world as of late, since their battles are merely noticed as "comets," "asteroids," "meteors," or "shooting stars."
The 12 Zodiacs have battled and balanced each other in the Zodiac Legacy. Some of these Zodiacs wish to harvest the powers and energy of the other Zodiacs for themselves while the rest wish for peace and try to bring the other Zodiacs into conversion for good.
To try and bring an end to the Zodiac Legacy and bring peace back into the stars.
Every 200 years, the Zodiac energy has seeped into the world and are found roaming the earth. The energy could be absolutely anywhere. It could even be near you.
Actually, it is. It's right around your area. The Zodiac energy is so close to you, you could almost.. Absorb the energy.
200 years have passed, and at this moment, a Zodiac will be coming for you. Not to worry though, there are people also coming for you. These people will help you and train you so you will get the hang of your new powers. These people are coming from research labs. They know more about the Zodiac energy than you do. You need their help, and luckily, they're happy to give it to you. But which lab you are going to, depends on which lab finds you first.
To think you were a mere human for a moment and now a human in Zodiac allegiance in the blink of an eye.
Whether a good or bad Zodiac has given you their powers, the twelve have one thing in common.
And that is to find the other people who have also gotten a bit of Zodiac energy.
You are to carry out the mission the Zodiacs have set forth for thousands of years. You are to carry out the Zodiac Legacy.
Good luck to you. The stars are in alignment.

"Yeah, okay, I get it. The name of the lab is childish but so are we. Let's go out for celebratory pizza!"
- Robert Wells, the current CEO of Z.A.P.S. Laboratory.
Z.A.P.S. Laboratory is a Zodiac research laboratory located underground in Hinsdale County, Colorado. The lab hosts and contains some of the most advanced scientists, technicians, and doctors in the U.S. Robert Wells, a 34-year-old research scientist with the mind of a twelve year old has taken Z.AP.S. into his own hands in hopes of finding the 6 Zodiac human counterparts capable of succeeding in Z.A.P.S.'s goal.
Find the other six in hopes of restoring the peace of the original 12 deities and bringing an end to the Zodiac Legacy. With a bonus of kicking Zodiac Corporation's butt.
Z.A.P.S's rival, the Zodiac Corporation has attempted to bring an end to Z.A.P.S each 200 years. Luckily, Z.A.P.S. is too good to stoop down to their level.

"Time is of the essence. We need those Zodiacs. We need their power."
- Danika Sherring, the current CEO of Zodiac Corporation.
The Zodiac Corporation is the second Zodiac Research Laboratory in the country. It is currently residing in a desolate Burns, Oregon.
Like its rival, Z.A.P.S, it too contains some of the top researchers, technicians, scientists, and doctors to aid the lab every 200 years. The current founder of the corporation, Danika Sherring, is a 30 year old woman with an iron fist. She is all business and to be honest, a little too mature for her age. Danika has taken the Corporation into her own hands to try and guide the new recruits toward one goal and one goal only.
Find those other Zodiacs and cut them of their power... Without trying to act like an immature brat like Robert Wells.

The reason why this CS is a big handful is because of the personality and interests. Most Zodiac horoscopes are a bit of an unreliable source of persona and feeling. On one hand, a person who is let's say a Libra, reads a certain horoscope and it is completely true for them. On the other hand, another Libra reads the same horoscope and thinks it is completely untrue. Sure there is only one person for each Zodiac, but you just gotta represent a Zodiac to its true potential, yo. c:
