| First topic message reminder :We're people just like them.... so why are we the victims?"Welcome to 'Search for Our Paradise'. This is the story of their search for salvation... for a paradise where our characters can live in peace and harmony. The RP will follow their journey, across the lands where it rains more often than not, where they will follow rumours of a paradise for people like them. Along the way they will have to make new friends and overcome various problems, including the floods that so often plague the land because of the amount of rain. Our characters are all human, but they are called 'mutated', 'different', sometimes even 'monsters'. They have powers or appearances different to 'normal' people. But who truly has the right to decide what is normal? -------------- For this RP I will only be accepting a total of Four characters. These will consist of me, Tenshineko and two others. Whoever wants to join this RP needs to PM me a completed bio. I will then decide from the bios that get submitted, who can join the RP. The accepted bios will be edited into this topic. Also, out of the extra two characters that are accepted, one can have a power, the other has to have a different appearance, however the appearance can grant them abilities, such as Tenshineko's character gets Night Vision because of her Cat-Like appearance. Please note that powers such as Telekinesis and any other powers that enable you to god-mod are forbidden and you may not have the same power or appearance as someone else.

Accepted Characters - My Character:
» Name: Raine » Age: 14 » Gender: Female
» Appearance: I will describe or link a picture to each form as she regains the memory of it. Current forms are listed below. Her human appearance is this; Raine is a slender female with pale skin and blue eyes. She has long, unnaturally white hair and wears a pair of white three quarter length trousers and a checked shirt that is many different shades of blue. Over the top she wears a pale blue long coat, though this seems to disappear and re-appear as if Raine can change it when she shifts forms. » Powers/Form: Shapeshifting, though only into animals and other creatures. Raine currently only knows how to transform into a Human, Blue Jay and Kingfisher, but hopes to remember and perhaps gain more forms.
» Personality: Raine is rather shy and reserved as she has no idea who she is. She tries to get to know people but will often find herself being abandoned in favour of someone else. Despite this she continues to travel, hoping to find something that will trigger her memories or somewhere she can at least star a new life. Raine also constantly finds herself trying to live up to other people's expectations. » History: Raine knows nothing of her history. She woke up in a grassy area with amnesia, though at the time she was in the form of a Blue Jay. She remembers nothing about herself other than her ability to shapeshift and the instincts and appearances that make her able to be in either Human, Blue Jay or Kingfisher form. She hopes to remember how to transform into other creatures as she regains her true memories. Raine is not her true name, rather only a temporary one. She named herself this after waking up during one of the numerous bouts of rainfall this world seems to have. Finding the sound of the raindrops to be calming after waking up with little to no memory, she named herself Raine after them.
» Likes: -The Rain She feels a sort of kinship with it, though she finds it hard to explain it to anyone else.
-Nature Same as the rain. As she is able to shapeshift, she feels at home amongst animals and nature generally
-Quiet Areas, especially at Night Being as shy as she is, Raine often find it nice to just sit somewhere quietly. She likes it best at night as she loves the view of the stars. Raine often finds herself dreaming of what might lie out there in the universe. » Dislikes: -Loud Places Raine has oddly delicate hearing and hates the noise in loud places. It is one of the reasons she is so shy and prefers calmer and quieter places. She also doesn't like the crowds associated with louder areas.
-Fighting Generally, Raine dislikes fighting and anything to do with it, Verbal, Physical or otherwise. Like a small child, if her friends or people she knows end up arguing, she will often slip away to find a quieter place to gather her thoughts.
» Strengths: -Observant Despite being rather shy, Raine has become accustomed to watched and learning from everything. With her amnesia, she isn't sure what could trigger her memories to return and so continues to search even the littlest of crevices for something that could help her remember. » Weaknesses: -Shyness Raine's shyness makes it harder for her to get along with people. It also makes it harder to make friends with people to start with. Because of this, Raine often finds that she relates to the animals she transforms into better than she does with other humans.
» Goal in Life: To regain her memories and to help the others find the Paradise she thinks they deserve.
- Tenshineko's Character:
» Name: Kisa » Age: 18 years old » Gender: Female » Appearance: She wears a black trench coat with a hood, and black pants, looks: go to Form » Powers/Form: With night vision, strength, agility, and able to talk to other cats. In other words Cat like reflexes. » Personality: Kisa is a shy person. Due to her appearance she has had little to no human contact in ten years. She is also very cautious to her surroundings. She love animals and nature. » History: Kisa was once a normal girl with a normal life with her mom and dad. One morning when Kisa was 8 years old she woke up feeling funny looking down at her hands and screamed. Instead of seeing her hand she saw strange large paw-like hands. Hearing their daughter scream the parents raced towards their daughter’s room and did not see what they were expecting. They saw a large creature in the girl’s bed with Kisa nowhere to be seen. It took them only a moment when they saw the torn pajama’s around the cat-like creature’s body that it was their daughter. Seeing her parents Kisa begged for help, she didn’t know what was happening to her. Taking a step towards her parents, Kisa’s mother flinched and her father shouted at Kisa to stay away from them. With a flinch of her own Kisa cried out to her parents again only for her mother to shout that they didn’t have a daughter. With tears falling from her eyes she leapt through the window protecting her face with her arms. Landing on her hand an feet like a cat she fell on top of a car crushing it on impact, she ran to find some sort of a new shelter nearly getting hit by passing cars. It rained that day like any other day but this day was different. She felt that she had to get out of the rain like a cat, by the time she made it to the forest she fell to the ground and cried until she could not any more. Over time she learned how to hunt small animals but still went looking for human food. Whenever she was spotted humans would throw whatever they could at her. Soon ten years had passed, Kisa was more like a wild cat than a human anymore. She could still talk but she often made sounds of a cat. When she was angry, frustrated or scare she would hiss. If she was really happy she would purr. Now she’s alone in her forest surrounded by nature and other animals and sometime she’ll see a cat and talk to it. But in the end she is still alone. » Likes: Nature, she feels at home when she is in the forest. The sun, When the sun comes out it feels like she is being watched over by someone, like a Guardian Angel. Singing, Although she is quiet she likes to sing. » Dislikes: The rain but puts up with it. Closed spaces or things around her neck, she doesn’t feel as free. Being around people, she is scared of what they will think. Loud noises, Kisa is very jumpy. » Strengths: Appreciates the small things. She is also loyal » Weaknesses: She doesn’t believe in herself » Goal in Life: To be a “Normal” person again and to have a family again.
- Ripple's Character:
» Name: Rosaline Croft (Goes by Owain) (I'll explain that later on xD) » Age: 19 » Gender: Female » Appearance: She wears a long black coat and tall boots. She also has an antique pocket watch. And a shirt and pants and stuff too xD » Powers/Form: I dunno if this can work but what about the ability to manipulate emotions? She can't completely make you feel a new emotion but can heighten one emotion or ease another emotion? If she gets too worked up or out of control things around her might start being affected. Like, if she's really really angry it might get windy? Or objects around her might start vibrating? » Personality: Owain is a very 'speak-only-when-completely-necessary' type person. She prefers to stay off to the side and watch over everyone from afar. No one is really sure who she is exactly as she keeps almost all information closely guarded for a reason unknown. She has a soft spot for anyone weepy or lonely, however, and tends to try and comfort anyone and everyone she can. » History: As a child, Rosaline was happy. She was involved in various clubs and had a bright future ahead of her. The day that she found out that she could manipulate emotions is when everything went south. Her parents wanted the poster child for perfection but what they got was a child who, in their minds, was a complete and utter freak. Her Father took the violent approach while her Mother took the 'disappointed from afar' approach, not wanting to get any blood on her hands, literally or metaphorically. Rosaline soon closed herself off, finding that the less her parents knew about her the less likely they were to hurt her. She found solace in the tattered old books that had once been read to her. In her favorite book, there was a young boy who ran away from home named Owain. He found his true family and lived happily ever after. Rosaline has gone by Owain ever since she ran far away from home. » Likes:Classical Music - It reminds her of back when she took ballet as a little girl. Back when her parents were proud of her. Windy days - Windy days make Owain feel tranquil and relaxed, two of her favorite emotions. Wide open spaces - Owain hates the feeling of being trapped and loves to be surrounded by fresh air and land that stretches on for what feels like forever. » Dislikes:Silence - Owain absolutely hates the silence. It feels suffocating to her and brings up feelings of abandonment and loss. Crowds - Owain prefers to be alone and in her own space or with a few people if she must. » Strengths: Very Stealthy - After running away and years of constantly being on the run from the police looking for the 'missing girl', Owain has learned exactly how to creep through any environment quietly. » Weaknesses: Very Used to Loss - After losing so many things, nothing fazes Owain now. Death and the fear of death do not exist for her. This makes her come off as cold-hearted more often than not, but she honestly can't find any reason any longer to be so torn up when she looses something. It brings only heartache. » Goal in Life: Owain still feels as if she has let down most of the people in her life. Her one and only goal is to make her family and friends proud again.
- Pikashock's Character:
» Name: Jack Muller » Age: 16 » Gender: Male » Appearance: His wings are like a bat's wings, except not attached to his arms and he usually hides them under his jacket. He also has large and sharp fangs in his mouth. » Powers/Form: He has Echolocation, and can fly for short periods of time with his wings. » Personality: Jack usually tries his best to be calm, but can be a bit temperamental and cranky at times due to his blindness. He has a good sense of humor and is sarcastic most of the time. » History: Jack grew up without a father, as he left his mom before he was even born. When he was ten years old, he found that he had wings start to develop and kept it a secret from anyone by hiding them under a gray hooded sweatshirt, and he also started to lose his eyesight until it was completely gone. He was still able to hide this because he started to develop Echolocation along with his wings. He couldn't hide his ears though, and had to wear a hood at most times. At 13 years old his wings were fully developed, and he made frequent trips to the woods to experiment with his abilities. People began to find out about him though, and Jack found himself having to travel to new areas frequently because of this. He started to enjoy the traveling, and started to do it just because he felt like it. » Likes: The night, because it feels more natural to him then the daytime. He also likes being in high places or flying, just to feel the rush and the wind. » Dislikes: Being alone, or when there’s nothing to sense. He also dislikes anybody who is arrogant, annoying, hypocritical, etc., and people who can’t take a joke. » Strengths: Other senses besides vision are stronger than normal, and he is determined and willing to do anything to help people who seem to have good intentions. » Weaknesses: He isn’t the smartest person, and can rush into things without thinking them through. Also when someone gets him mad, he can hold a bit of a grudge. » Goal in Life: To be able to live with his appearance freely instead of having to hide himself and not having to worry about being judged by others.
--------------
Denied(Perhaps introduced later in the story) Characters - Axi:
» Name: David Krotson » Age: 17 » Gender: Male » Appearance: » Powers/Form: Clockmaker: Basically anything mechanical that he touches with his hands will take itself apart down to its basic components. He can't control it so he prefers simple things that he can't accidently destroyed, and he wears bandages on his hands so that he doesn't accidentally destroy things. He can't use the taken apart things for anything, and he can't remake the object he destroyed, once he has 'taken it apart' he can't rebuild it. » Personality: David is rather cautious due to his ability, he doesn't take unnecessary risks. He is usually calm and tries to think things through carefully, thinking about every detail carefully, sometimes over thinking them. In some cases where he gets nervous or cornered he retreats into his mind and starts to think out all possible things he could do. He doesn't like to lead, he will just offer out his ideas on what he thinks would be the best thing to do. David has lived on his own for a long time, so he is slow to make friends, but if you become a friend of his, he won't ever forget you. » History: David is an only child and grew up with his parents until he was thirteen. His parents had realized that he was a mutant when he would try and play with toys and they would instantly fall apart. They kept it secret as long as they could, but when David started to play with other kids, either they or their parents figured out that he was a mutant and they kept away from him. So David then spent most of his time at home reading books. When he was thirteen he started to notice how much trouble his mutant status affected his parents so he decided to leave and find the Paradise where people wouldn't keep away from him. His parents gave him enough supplies and money to last for awhile, but obviously its been awhile so he makes his own living. He still writes to his parents occasionally. » Likes: Working, he has needed to work for a living for years and enjoys doing odd jobs. Soda, he doesn't know why, he just likes it. Seafood/Fish, he can catch it himself so its cheap. » Dislikes: His own ability, but he will still utilize it when necessary. People who treat other mutants badly, especially when the mutant has a physical change. Leading, he prefers to have a supporting role. » Strengths: Critical Thinking, Making Strategies, Lying(from living alone for four years) » Weaknesses: Making friends, not good under extreme pressure, he can't control his ability and may accidently destroy something. » Goal in Life: To master his ability. To find somewhere he can be safe and have lots of friends and where he doesn't have to lie anymore.

| Raine stood there for a moment to think over what Owain had said. The words were so slurred together that it took her a little while to realise what she had said. "W-wait.... you mean..?" She paused again, but her blue eyes seemed to dull as all of a sudden something came back to her.
A young boy sat, swinging gently two and fro. The swing was made of nothing more than some rope and a plank of wood. He smiled up a Blue Jay who was perched in the tree above, looking down from where the rope was tied onto the branch. The area seemed peaceful and quiet. Not like what you would find in a town today. Raine somehow felt that she knew this red-haired boy. "I'm one of those people too," he smiled, hopping off of the swing and landing gently on the ground. He paused where he landed, his body seeming to burst into flames before he emerged from the ashes as an Otter. The Blue Jay fluttered down from the tree, her own body glowing a pale white before she touched the ground. When she landed, she too was an Otter. Rusty brown fur, a white belly and whiskers. She laughed, a soft sound that Raine hadn't heard properly in so long.
Her mind suddenly returned to to the present. She blinked, looking up at Owain. Wait... looking up? Rain suddenly panicked. Not even a few moments ago she had been only a few centimetres shorter, not she was a whole few metres? Holding up her arm, she saw a brown webbed paw... I'm... I'm an otter! she realised. | |

| Owain's eyes flew wide open for the third time in their brief exchange. Well, that answers that question. She quickly looked around and fortunately found the street empty. She quickly scooped up Raine in her arms and ducked back into the alley before someone noticed an otter on the street corner. "So that's what your ability is." She attempted at small talk with a wobbly smile. |

| Raine sighed in relief as Owain took her into the alley. "That... wasn't meant to happen..." she muttered quietly. If there had been anyone on that street she might be dead right now... literally or figuratively depending on how much the people of this town despised people like her. "W-what's yours?" she asked, looking up at Owain. The feeling of being an Otter was odd... but like when she was a Blue Jay or a Kingfisher, it felt natural. She felt like she could fit in nicely with any other, wild otters that happened to be around. The same animalistic instincts, with a touch of human thrown in. | |

| "My ability?" She appeared a bit hesitant to give out any information on herself but figured it was fair enough. "I can.. manipulate emotions. Things around me like to.. do things according to my mood, however. It's sort of like a big blinking sign saying 'the freak is here'." Owain snuggled farther into her coat. "I'm getting better at sensing the emotions of others...But then again, I've have 6 years of practice.." She hadn't meant to let that information slip but it was already out there and now she was being bogged down by the painful memories once more. She shook them off but the air around her still grew humid. |

| Raine blinked before turning into a Blue Jay and perching on Owain's shoulder. "What's your name?" she asked, her voice quiet and with a chirruping, sing-song quality to it because of her bird form. Her head once again tilted to the side as she asked the question. Raine was still curious about this person, but felt at least a little more comfortable around her knowing that she too had an ability. | |

| The black-haired girl didn't even skip a beat in saying that her name was Owain. She had long since tried to do everything to get rid of her old identity. She had shredded every document, even tried to erase it from her mind. It always clung to her, no matter what she did to get rid of her. That girl she used to be. That girl she could have been.
After realizing that she had been zoning out, Owain shook her head and returned her attention to Raine. "I'm sorry, I don't think I caught your name either." |

| "Raine..." she replied, "At least... that's what I call myself. I don't know my real name." Despite the still chirruping sound that accompanied the voice, she sounded rather solemn about not knowing her own name. She attempted to perk up however by asking Owain for her help. "Could... Could you help me find out more about these rumours?" she asked, once again pausing before the word rumour. | |
| | | Guest Guest
| Subject: Re: Searching for Our Paradise Sat Sep 01, 2012 1:29 am | |
| Owain figured that Raine seemed harmless enough and nodded slowly. "Of course." She took a deep breath. She hadn't talked this long in years! "Well, while they were talking about it they never mentioned its name.. I've just been calling it Paradise in my head." She looked sheepish at this. "Supposedly, if you go farther to the west than anything has ever gone before you reach Paradise. It's a sanctuary for people like us.. People with no where else to go." Her shoulders slumped and the volume of her voice dropped a bit with the last few sentences. |

| "Sounds... interesting," she replied before pointing with her wing to a building across the street. "I can hear lots of voices inside that place, even from here. Maybe we could try getting some more information?" she suggested, looking at Owain with her small, blue tinted eyes. She ruffled her feathers using her other wing whilst waiting for an answer. | |

| Owain briefly considered her options and figured she had nothing to lose. She nodded and straightened up. With another nod of her head, this time towards the building, she began the walk across the street, doing her best to avoid running into anyone after having learned her lesson and getting lucky with Raine. |

| Smiling as best as she could in her bird form, Raine fluttered after Owain. She didn't like the feeling of perching one someone's shoulder and letting them do all the work of walking, however she soon realised that she may well need to be human for this rather than a bird. Fluttering into another nearby alley, she quickly changed forms before dashing back over to the building. Cheerfully, she pushed open the door and stepped inside. | |

| Owain had entered the building whilst Raine had been transforming. She was currently shuffling her feet anxiously. When she spotted Raine she appeared to relax a bit, seeming to feel a bit safer with someone she knew. Well, it wasn't as if she knew Raine, but she could relate to what she was going through and they weren't complete strangers.
The building had turned out to be a coffee shop which appeared to be rather popular with the town residents. Some were milling about while others were talking and there were even some people drawing, writing, and using the free wifi. Owain cleared her throat a bit before walking up to one of the writers. "Excuse me." She was a whole lot less talkative with complete and utter strangers who she had no clue were like. "Would you happen to know anything about some so called 'Paradise' for those strange people with powers?" Owain had learned to talk like the locals after a particularly harsh experience. |

| Raine wandered over to Owain but stayed silent as she glanced around the coffee shop. She didn't want to seem weird as she was now fully aware that certain words just seemed to escape her and she would often end up pausing for a few seconds mid sentence.
Owain walked up to one of the writers and began talking to them, Raine watched over her shoulder, looking almost creepy as she did so.
"Paradise? Sorry, I don't know much about it. Rumours? Yea, though I'm not one of those freakish people so I just ignore them." replied the writer, jotting down something on the paper in front of him. | |

| Owain grunted an 'Okay' before moseying away, hands stuck deep in her pockets. She stopped by the tables of a few more artists and people drinking coffees to no avail. She bit her lip and decided to just head out when she felt a mood of mischief and devilishness. She turned around and creeped up closer to the table so that she was in earshot.
"....Freaks! Isn't that... ....I know right!? So they have this legend.... some weird 'guide'...Oh my god you should hear the riddle." The person snorted. Owain frowned a bit before stepping a smidgen closer.
"They said something like 'The Early Morning Star will guide you home once you reach the place where a trillion sparkling diamonds and sapphires fall.' Sounds like a loud of crap to me!" The group laughed uproariously. Owain figured that this was probably quite a bit warped and not the full message, but she did take some information into account. She mulled over it as she signaled to Raine that she was leaving. |

| Raine listened to the conversation, wincing at the word 'freaks'. She didn't think of herself as a freak, after all she was no different to a normal human being. She felt the same pain and emotion as they did. The same joy and sadness. She laughed and cries like any other human.... so why was she and other like her and Owain called Freaks? They had abilities...powers, but not by their own choosing.
Raine slowly followed Owain out of the coffee shop. She wondered what all this new information could mean. | |
