(( Thanks, Tiger. <3 ))

Name: Conner O'day
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Species: Jumper
Powers: The ability to teleport himself short distances, with a range of about 10 yards. He both disappears and appears in a black cloud of smoke, with absolutely no time between the two. He refers to this as "jumping", due to the fact that 
he actually bends space around his body, allowing him to move without exerting any physical force. This is very taxing on him, however, especially when doing multiple jumps within a short period of time.
Personality: He tends to be the quiet, sultry, short-tempered kind of man. His glare could send you to hell and back, and he doesn't seem to get along "well" with anyone. He more tolerates others. Will roleplay it out more.
Appearance: He has handsome features, and bright, piercing red eyes. His hair is black, and he keeps it short, and he has normal, if not slightly pale skin. He is a little taller than most, and has a slim, rather formless figure. He is quite normal-looking other than that, the only exception being a long, black, devil-hooked tail protruding from his rear. He manages to hide this from the humans by simply running it down along his leg, which isn't entirely comfortable, but works well as a disguise. He rarely smiles, but if he were to, you might catch a glimpse of his vampire-like fangs, his teeth a pearly white.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Name: Keth Regal (Ket)
Age: Older than he cares to remember, appears around 20
Gender: Male
Species: Unknown
Powers: Although they wouldn't be considered powers, Ket has an extreme sense of observation. He notices tiny details that others take for granted, and is usually able to piece them together like a puzzle. This way, he always seems to stay several steps of his friends, and his enemies. His gut is accurate in the extreme, rarely failing him when it acts up. It is, as of yet, unknown whether or not he has telepathic powers, or if he is simply able to understand things, and people, on an unnatural scale.
Personality: Ket, over years and years of noticing every detail, of piecing together every little mystery, and after solving every little problem, seems to have been driven to insanity. He has episodes of complete breakdown, where he will often destroy everything in his path in fits of rage and terror. And yet other times, he will be calm, gentle, and almost normal. He often hallucinates, which, on more than one occasion, has nearly gotten himself and others killed. He tends to shift between stubborn and submissive, but no matter what state he is in he always seems to have a rude retort if he feels like it. He is quiet, and is often torn between what is real for others, and what is real to him. Although others don't know how, he can find his way in to small nooks, and hidden crevices where he likes to watch and observe. Some find him slightly disturbing, especially with the way he watches them. He will refer to song lyrics and old sc[injection]ripts if the topic is suitable for them. And one last thing to add; don't give the albino knives, guns... or nutella.
Appearance: A bit shorter and thinner than average, Ket is an albino. His hair is kept at a short / medium length, and his eyes are an icy grey. Pale skin, white hair, pale flesh; his entire body seems to be lacking with pigment. He has the habit of pressing his thumb to his lip when thinking, and almost always sits by squatting low to the ground. His sense of balance seems flawless; he'll end up perched in places one would never expect him. He has wide, innocent eyes, and overall 'cute' features. He appears a bit younger than he is.
Other: Ket advanced through the grades at an extreme pace, and was finished with one of the most complex mathematical, professional courses available to the public when he was seven years old. He is now kept (when he isn't sneaking out) in a government-run lab facility, where it is suspected others try to experiment on them. Little do they know, he has never once in his life actually taken their daily "treatments".

(( Hope this is alright, feel free to point out anything you see wrong. ^^

Also, edited for Aiden. ))

((Ok then, everyone remember to post in bigger font, k. But before we start I need to ask you guys about the setting. Do you guys think it should be changed or kept the same? If you want it changed just give me an idea and I'll make a new setting.
LeoLeaf I'm not sure why it won't work, 'cause it works for everyone else.
LaCortori, I love Keth! His personality reminds me of Myrnins from the Morganville Vampire series.))

((Ok then, I think I'll start this off then.))

I hand a cup of coffee to the man standing across the counter and say, "Here's your coffee sir." "Thanks." The man replies. I watch him leave out the door. Moments later two other men come walking in. "Hey guys!" I yell to the two men as one comes up to the counter and slumps down on a chair. The other sits next to him and glares at him. "Luffy, what did I say about giving Triston the stink eye while you're visiting me at work?" Luffy's eyes soften as he looks at Forra and says, "Sorry, but you know I can't help it when he acts like this." I know what you mean... I thought to myself as I looked at Triston. He sat there slouched, arms dangling freely, his face flat on the counter, moaning. Idiot. "Let's not forget, you're friends can't be here unless they order something!" My manager yells from the back. I wave him off. "Come on you two, cough it up." One of Triston's arms move, grabbing his wallet from his pocket and placing it on the counter. "Thank you." I take twenty dollars, stuff five in my pocket and make them their coffees. Triston mutters something unintelligible, I smile and say, "You still owe me money. Just be glad I didn't take all of it." He groans and I smile once again. "K, here's your black coffee and your chocolate mocha" Triston sits up strait and chugs his entire drink in ten seconds flat. How he does not burn his throat is a complete mystery to me... "New record!" Triston says with a grin. "Gawd, you're such an idiot." I mutter to myself. "Heard that." Triston says. "I'll see you guys later." I say as I head to the back. My shift was finally over and I couldn't wait till I got out of here.

I look over at Luffy, who was finishing his drink. Out of the corner of my eye I see Forra take off towards the forest. "So do you wan-" "No!" Luffy says, then walks out of the building and starts walking in the same direction as Forra. "Hey wait up!" I say as I gets outside, then run over to Luffy. "Why are you following me?" Luffy says with a groan. "I'm not following you, I just happen to be going the same way as you."I reply as we pass under a shady building. Luffy says, "I don't think so." His body turns black and melds with the shadows. "That really does hurt..." I run my fingers through my hair, then head off to The Underground.

After the shadows envelope me I start heading off to the forest.

((I forgot I had fixed Forra's appearance a while ago. I went and fixed it. I tend to go between first and third person. First is what I usually do. This is to help clear any confusion that may happen. I play as Forra then Triston then finally Luffy. One paragraph for each of them. 
The Underground is kinda like a bar for non-humans. I'm going to be adding more info about this place on the first page.
Also Aiden is it ok if we have the font at three or would you prefer it at four?))

 "Thirteen!" Keth shouted, bolting straight up in his makeshift bed. He tumbled off the bench, racing with bare feet across the white tile floor. By the time he slid to a stop, he already had the thin, rapidly shortening stick of chalk in his hand. Even though he had only just woken up, his eyes were wildly alive. He grabbed the eraser and scrubbed a clean spot off the blackboard, the chalk making clicking, skidding sounds as he scribbled down an equation. He muttered to himself as he worked, his writing considerably neat for the speed at which he was moving. "Three times twenty-seven to the eleventh..." he murmured, "...divided by 'f' of 'x', minus six-hundred and three, times 'a' to the forth..." he continued, "...divided by the square root of Pi when 'x' is equal to thirteen." he grinned, looking over his work.

   He bit his lip, thinking for a minute. Then a small frown played at his features.

 "General?" he yelled, pointedly up at the black-glass observation room above him. He waited for a moment, then an answer came over the speakers hidden throughout the room.

 "Yes, Mr. Regal?" a man answered.

 "Have those short-minded idiots calculated Pi yet?" he asked, studying the overfilled chalkboard. He could have sworn, even though the intercom was off, that the man he was speaking to sighed.

 "Not as of yesterday, Mr. Regal." he answered. Keth nodded grimly, silver eyes bl[injection]inking as he thought.

 "Would you kindly ask them to hurry?" the boy called. The "General", as Keth had nicknamed him months ago, was once again reluctant.

 "Of course, Mr. Regal." he answered, although simply by the tone of his voice Keth knew the professor didn't plan to urge the team of humans and supercomputers on.

   The boy continued to watch the blackboard for a while, squatting on the ground as he thought. He knew the security team would be at the door in only moments, so they could escort him back to his quarters. Knowing this, he took a while to savor his work. It was only a second later that his prediction came true, the bleach-white doors opening to show him his normal guards. He hopped back up onto his feet, cocking his head to the side as he walked towards the men. They were both much taller than him, and a bit older it seemed. He guessed somewhere in their mid-thirties.

   One man, Darian, was tall, burly, and had skin the color of chocolate. His deep, brown eyes flickered over the boy, who gave a quick turn, lifting his arms to show that he was weaponless. To most people it would have seemed there was absolutely nothing in the room that the boy could use, but to him they seemed blind. He oftentimes would pull out only one of the things he had found, just to prove them wrong. He had never attempted to use any of them, he was satisfied by the look of shock and worry on the others faces just before he was tackled to the ground.

   This time, he went easily. After both Darain, and his white-skinned partner, Viktor, were fairly certain Keth posed no immediate threat, each on of them grabbed one of his skinny arms and lead him out of the room, several halls to the right. Halfway back to his room, Keth began to sing in a soft, melodic voice.

"Come back and take you home
I could not stop
that you now know
singing

Come out upon my seas
curse missed opportunities
am I
Part of the cure
or am I part of the disease?"

  
   Both men exchanged nervous glances, knowing what Keth's singing often led to. They tried to drag him along a bit faster, but it wasn't long before the boy froze solidly in his tracks, refusing to move forward. He stared with wide eyes down the hallway, squirming with a weak whimper.

 "It's alright, Ket, there's nothing there." one of the men tried to reassure him, and although, deep inside, Keth knew they were right, he couldn't undo the paralysis that was already controlling him. He stared forward, watching the bright, white walls as they melted before his eyes. He felt the heat burning his skin as part of the ceiling dripped from above, landing with a splatter at his feet. He jumped back, letting out a terrified cry as more began to ooze from the lights and ceiling. He stared at the men in horror as the molten liquid dripped down on their faces and shoulders, making sizzling, burning sounds as their flesh was melted through. It was like acid, and soon, as bigger glops fell from above, all that was left of the men holding him were glassy skeletons.

   Keth let out a horrified scream, trying desperately to pull away from them. Their grips were as solid as steel, but soon, the boy kicking, shouting, and pleading, Darian was forced to hug the boy against his chest to keep him from escaping. Keth sobbed as the man bent over him, holding him still.

 "Ket! Ket, stop!" he ordered patiently, but firmly. The boy continued to fight his guards, heat from all around him making beads of sweat drip down his face.

 "Please, please!" he choked, tears staining his cheeks. He watched as one of the doctors ran down the hall from back the way they had come, and Keth recognized him in an instant. "Doctor Mordecai, please!" he sobbed, "Please!"

   The doctor rushed forward at the sight of the horrified boy, eyes burning with worry. He pulled a small needle from his pocket, unsheathing it and stabbing one of Keth's forearms when Viktor pulled it out for him. Keth continued to struggle, letting out a cry of pain as the molten material crept towards his feet, burning the boy's heels. He begged for them to let him go, confused and scared beyond sane thought. After a minute, however, his mind began to slow, and the boy's frantic attempts weakened. He felt his body go limp with relief as the hallucinations began to waver, and he once again saw the world for the way it was. His tears were not so easily subdued.

 "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." he panted over and over again as his world began to darken. "I'm sorry..."

(( High-fives to whoever knows the song. xD ))

[[Yay! I installed Google Chrome and the format stuff fixed. I'm intimidated by   LaCortoriReturn  intro, so I have to make mine great! ]]
The sun was barley touching the forest floor making the the time of the day unknown. As Charlotte crawled out of the hole in the hollow tree she lived in, as shadows swarmed around her body forming a dress that fitted and wrapped around her body hugging what little curves she had and stopped mid thigh, making her look taller. The sleeve of her dress came off her shoulders and gave way to a scoop neck. Though she didn't know why she tried to look nice since she wasn't expecting company or anything. 

Petie didn't have to squint or flinch as much when she came out of her house, though her eyes did have to adjust to the lighting difference. The atmosphere was warm and fresh as her stomach growled for the breakfast that was awaiting her arrival just around the corner. A smile lit her milky skin as she released a huge yawn and stretched big. The sun was coming through the trees more and dots of sunlight warmed her face. "ah..." She moaned closing her eye and ending her stretch.  Fluttering her eyes open again she jumped up and down warming her body up before she went to go hunt for food.

With a huge smile Petie stopped jumping and took off running. The birds flew up ahead keeping her company and singing to her. Her feet pounded on the ground hard. Her feet were bare and the tiny rocks stuck into her feet making them bleed, but she didn't care. She was in search of food. Her deep black water eyes were searching the ground and bushes looking for berries that were going to be her breakfast. Her eyes landed on a bush filled with blueberries. That she decided  will be my breakfast she exclaimed in her thoughts remembering seeing the bush the other day. She didn't stop to get the berries, she kept running. Peties hair swung side to side as if it were a copper sea caught a the storm. She was now in search of water, though she knew exactly were to go. Living in these woods for years have given her great knowledge of the layout of the place.

Swallowing hard trying to get the thought of her past out of her head, Petie heard the sound of running water. The birds swarming over head had now disappeared but the song they sang to her remained in the air. Still running, the sound of the water got louder and louder. The bushes and trees soon cleared and a river unraveled. Still running full speed towards to long and deep, but slow moving river, she look a graceful leap into the water. The shadows of her dress disappeared and took the form of a bikini. Petie gave a small chuckle and started to swim. Her red hair turned dark instantly as she enjoyed her normal morning.

((The Underground.... hmmm funny, that's what I used to call a club for non-humans in my earlier rps. XD ))

If you do this

If you do this you'll never have a chance to try again.


If you do this you'll never have a chance to try.


A young girl sand as she sat on the roof of her house, her pale legs dangling off in the light breeze that swirled around her.

It's the same sound

Same sting.


The same collapse


Of every thing.



It's the same slice,



Same blade,


The same lie,


Same ol' vein


She continued to sing while her bright blue eyes gazed out into the sky. The sun hadn't even began to rise yet, and yet she was wide awake. She sighed slightly as she watched the light colored clouds slowly drift across the seemingly endless blue-black sky.

As she remained seated, she hugged the large black coat closer to her body as the light breeze kicked back up to rather cold gust.

My weight

My face


My height


My race


I'm a mistake.



My weight



My face


My height


My race


I'm such a disgrace.


She continued to sing to herself before getting up and jumping off the roof.

"You're such a freak Zoran!" An older man said in pure disgust when she landed on the cement.

"Love you too Mr. Carteris." She replied with a smile and a wave as the older man drove by in he sorry excuse for a car.
Once he was out of sight, Zoran shook her head and headed in side her house.

You're perfectly flawed

You're perfectly incomplete


Like cracks in the glass


And faded photographs



You're perfectly flawed



You're perfectly incomplete


A work in progress


Imperfections will keep you unique





Once inside, she locked the door and finished singing the last two verses of the song she had began up on the roof.
With a sigh of boredom and a slight glance towards the clock on the wall, she marched up the stair case that lead to her room, the guest room and the shower.

"Another day... another drag..... another day of 'You're not what we're looking for to fill this position'.... I swear if I have to go to another interview with another manager who thinks his s*** doesn't stink-" She grumbles and growled while she went into the bathroom and prepared to take a shower.

((Sorry for my fail... I have a huge headache which is causing a not so fun case of writer's block.... that said, anyone want to be friends with Zoran?))
