Alias
"A false name used to conceal one's identity; an assumed name."
Many heroes, vigilantes and villains use Alias to hide their true identity to protect themselves from the Government, any enemies or just to keep their normal lives separate from their superhuman ones.

Rules
0.) All IWAKU rules apply.
1.) Respect anyone and everyone in this roleplay, we are all equals and I won't tolerate any OOC drama. No meta gaming (such as knowing another characters weakness without having a valid reason)
2.A) Multiple Characters Are allowed, as long as you handle them both, and your posts don't suffer because of it. Your characters can have powers, cybernetics, and any special scientific powers. However, no magic is allowed.
2.B) Make your character powerful, but not a god. If I feel like your character is too strong without a weakness, they won't be accepted until they're adjusted. If I feel as if you are playing your character too powerfully and not getting hurt in an extremely hard fight, I will ask you to tone it down. If you don't I will be forced to kill off that character.
3.) Make your character unique and interesting! Make it your own, and be creative! If you want to be apart of a certain group or organization, feel free to! (Unless its another PC's group, then check with them before hand) Do not post in the IC until your character is accepted.
4.) This is a mature roleplay, and will include violence, gore, cussing, drugs, and alcohol. It will not include any graphic sexual scenes, and we will leave them fade to black.
5.A)You will need to post atleast ONCE a week. If you and whoever are interacting with can fit in more post, feel free to continue posting. Don't leave anyone in the dust and give people time to respond. If you have to go ghost for a week or two, let me know ahead of time so I can set aside a space for your character.
5.B)Post length is set atleast two paragraphs. I prefer a good quality post however, and if you can't hit a lengthy two-three paragraph post every time, I understand. Don't write too much either, we are telling stories together, and most people don't want to read an entire novel before they post.
6.)If you're unsure about something ASK QUESTIONS. I won't bite, and generally like to think I'm a nice person, so if you're unsure of a piece of technology or super power, ask.
7.)This is OUR world, not just my own. If you want to introduce a piece of lore, organization, or anything else, I'd be happy to work with you in order to fit it into the world.
8.A) Finally, a thank you for giving this Roleplay a shot! There is a bit of information to take in, but I'm wanting to make this roleplay unique and a fun story telling experience for us all.
8.B) And a special thanks to Kat, for providing some help, inspiration, and giving insight on some pieces of information before this was entirely open.
8.C) This isn't the most flashy OOC, but I did my best damn it >:( You may see some spelling errors or formatting errors, so forgive me.
Setting
Welcome to New Angeles, the futuristic city of America
If you have a question about the city, time period, back ground, etc. Let me know! I've tried to come off as clear as I can, but I'll understand if you don't think I did! Shoot me a PM and I'll answer any questions you have for me.
Year: 2030, Twenty Five Years after the majority of LA was wiped out. The City was rebuilt and renamed New Angeles, and is now Americas largest and most technologically advanced city.
The city was rebuilt quickly and better than ever thanks to the advancements of technology and help from several corporations and governments. The city doesn't have a standard police force, but instead has hired the Peacekeepers, a militarized police force that will keep the peace. Hackers make their living in this city of lights and robotics, being hired to cause mischief and blackmail business owners.
The city is a hub for Trade, Entertainment and Business, but at night it is riddled with Crime. Shade, an infamous assassin group, has a headquarters here. Members of the Hounds of Wrath, a deadly mercenary group are often hired to be criminal enforcers in the city, and often class with the Peacekeepers.
Raziel Technology and Robotics has one of its three technology centers here, along with several other companies that specialize in science and robotics.

Plot Lines
-
Following the explosion at an apartment complex, Arcadia got wind that Elijah "Reaper" Brandt was involved with the explosion. Seeing an opportunity to bring the mercenary in, Director Sydney Pearl sent two agents to capture the freelancer. Emilia Bachmeier and Naomi "Zero" Swift was tasked with bringing the supersoldier into Arcadia custody, preferably alive.
With Arcadia on his tail, Elijah rested up for the night and headed to a repair shop known called "Eidos" ran by Lepton Seamyar, aka Clockwork.
Meanwhile, the two agents tracked Brandt to the Hounds Pool-Hall the location of an information dealer, Jacob Luther. Former friend to Elijah, he reluctantly gave the women the location of Elijahs closest hide out located in the Dock District in Warehouse 31, where our protagonists lay in wait.
~~~
Elijah finished up at Eidos and headed back to the warehouse. Stopping at an old-garage, he stashed his car and picked up a crate of ammo before heading back to his hideout.
Emilia and Naomi were already waiting for him in his living-quarters.
As Emilia and Elijah sparred, Naomi took a call from Director Pearl, who congratulated them on being successful in their attempt to hunt down Brant.
~~~
Emmett was waiting outside the building, waiting for the best opportunity to catch Reaper. -
Meanwhile, the Peacekeepers have sent their youngest detective, Vector "Arachnoid" Anderson to find the source of the explosion and bring the culprit to justice. Emmett Everett, a renown free-lance detective, also arrived on the scene. The two men, now working together, are already a few steps behind our Arcadia friends.
Emmett questioned some civilians, getting a tip on a survivor of the blast heading south. He left Vector, and the scene of the crime, to head to a local informant by the name of Jacob Luther. Reaching the Hounds Pool-Hall, he eased dropped on Jacob and some Arcadia Agents discussing the survivor of the explosion. As Agent Emilia and Agent Zero left the pool-hall, Emmett quietly tailed them.
Meanwhile, Vector was packing up at the scene of the explosion. Peacekeeper bomb-specialists linked the bomb back to a former bomb-maker, and quickly sent officers to try and learn the whereabouts of Shade, who were thought to be behind the bombing. Vector geared up for combat, and soon was tasked with dismantling several Shade members held up in an old office located above a factory. Learning the assassins held a hostage, Vector made the rash decision to forgo his orders to wait for back up, and go in alone in an attempt to save the hostage.
~~~
Earlier that day, D.E.E.R contacted a former DEER agent living in America, Alexandra Morris, and requested her help in gathering Intel on the explosion, suspecting Furor to be the reason for the blast. Alex reluctantly accepted, and photographed the crime scene. She picked up a scrap of cloth that belonged to Elijah Brant, before being chased off by a ES Spider Drone. She stuck around the site, before tailing Detective Anderson to the office building, where she silently knocked a Peacekeeper sniper on over watch, and watched as Vector entered the building.
~~~
Riley Arondottir, one of the five deadly Shadows of Shade, was approached by Crow in the dead of night, and tasked with diverting Peacekeeper attention from Shade. Making her way to the crime scene, Riley subtly watched from the side-lines before picking up on information about an informant that might know more about the bomber. Playing the act of a distressed woman who lost her friend, she took advantage of a cadet and read his mind. Picking up on the location of the informant, Riley quickly implanted false-information in his mind. The false information was the location of a Furor hide-out, not Shade. The Peacekeepers quickly mobilized and sent in a Detective, thinking they were still dismantling a Shade insurgency.
Riley planted herself at the site of the office, this time playing the act of a helpless hostage. -
Three days ago, convict 964, previously known as Keenan Ford, escaped an Arcadia convoy when he was being transported to a prison located in Washington. He escaped, and left behind the corpses of Arcadia soldiers. Director Pearl pulled some strings and kept things hushed, not letting the media or other organizations know. Aldrin "Cutlass" Domindor is tasked with tracking down Ford and taking him into custody, quickly and quietly.
Managing to corner the fugitive in an alleyway, Cutlass and his team managed to cuff 964 before Ashley "Neon" Coleman took it upon herself to play the hero, and attacked the soldiers. Freeing 964 and escaping with him, the two are now on the run from the law.
After scaling a wall with the help of Ashley's powers, the two criminals briefly encountered Jan Mckennon, who was having a homeless man donate money to her.
Now the two head to Eidos, in need of a place to lay-low and heal 964's wounds.
