  • The Beginning
    Many teenagers all around the world have been developing powers recently. There are some who can read mind, some who move things with their mind, and some who can see the future. Each and every power is unique and has its own little flaw, but the government is going crazy and trying to figure out why teenagers are developing these powers. They're poking teens with needles in hopes of finding some connection, but as far as they can see, they are random and there is no pattern.
    Seeing this as a good thing, the government welcomes the teens to a facility to learn more about them and offers them a place of safekeeping. They learn about a few different teenagers and began to stick them in on government jobs to use as a new weapon. That is until a huge star comes right for the earth and burst open, but instead of hurting anyone, it takes a few people. These people are random also, but the government targets the unique teens as a threat, and begins to worry.
    In confusion of this, they hurry to capture and/or kill any teenager who has or shows signs of developing odd or extraordinary abilities. Scared and confused, many teenagers, with and without abilities, began to flee and look somewhere safe. Somewhere where they will not only be accepted, but they will feel accepted. A place like Berkeley.

    Berkeley
    Berkeley is a very unique place that not many people know about. That's because it only shows itself to the ones it wants. If it wants you there, you will be able to see the massive castle on each map you look at, and it is told that a trail will be shown to you to lead you there. Because Berkeley is not seen by many, the people who are inside are well protected and cared for. The only question is by who?
    Inside of Berkeley there are many different things going on, but the number one goal is to protect its people. Berkeley is not a house, but it is a city that has unique powers of its own. When it wants to be seen, it can show up wherever it is needed, whether it is in Japan or America. When it wants to be kept a secret, it makes itself disappear. For thousands of years, this city has lived off of the power of these teenagers who have been able to do and learn these unique abilities.
    The people inside of Berkeley is what makes it keep running, but recently it has been failing. The flowers are not growing back in the springtime, people without powers and who are not called to Berkeley have been able to see it, and the more it travels each day, the slower it gets. It's obvious to the members of Berkeley that something is obviously wrong, and it all started the same night as the star hit the earth and burt. Even the people who have lived in Berkeley their entire life have never seen anything like it, but it's up to the new set of teenagers to now save not only Berkeley, but the world too.

    The Story
    When the government officials begin to notice that the teenagers are disappearing and are nowhere to be seen, the forces become more powerful and no one will rest until they have the teenagers. While searching for the unique powered kids, one by one, each government official who ever came in contact with the teens are disappearing along with the ones already gone in the ball of light.
    The remaining government officials blame this on the kids too, and are convinced that they are working with a larger power. Whether it be some kind of god, the devil, or who knows what else, they believe that there is no hope for them and begin to push the human population into safekeeping, trying to save them from the enemy, not realizing that the enemy was really themselves.
    Each teenager who receives a new ability was visited in the night by none other than the future. They have a mission for them, but can't let them know who is giving them these abilities. Each ability would come in use for the future war that would break out against the government and then people of the world. At the end of the visit, each kids mind was swept and was left with only fragments of that night, including their new ability. Now they are stuck to decide which side they would be on.
    The bad side, or the good side. Whichever side they choose, they will be placed in classes and learn to work with the other students, while training for the upcoming war that will decide whether good always ends, or if bad is getting the side of it now.

    Dorms /Classes/Activities
    Each dorm is set up in such a way. There are four bedrooms, two bathrooms, one kitchen, one living room, and one dining room in each hall. The males and females will be split up into different halls and each gender has four halls.Each person who comes into Berkeley will be assigned a class and school based on their abilities. Each student will also be assigned a set schedule. There are many activities allowed, but you must have between two and three.

Brea. . . Is it possible for you to go over your entire CS and darken the text color? :X

My text color is white. . . So I can't really read anything xD
Arg, I just copied one of my other CS's and then changed the info in it so I didn't have to redo the coding, so I thought the color would be fine. Sorry about that! Anyways, should be fixed now.

@Brea Peter and Najeeb should totally be friends. They're heads of the equestrian team so they'd def bond over horses and stuff, and they'd have a lot of time to hang out too due to club work :D

Sounds doable :) Give me a moment to look over Najeeb's CS to make sure they'd be compatible as friends, but I don't see why not.
 
[BCOLOR=#800000]Relationship Proposals.[/BCOLOR]​
I've gone through and read all the CS's, and this is just how I think our characters would interact with each other. Feel free to decline my ideas and suggest your own. If you approve of the proposals you can rate this post however you want, or reply to this post letting me know you're okay with it. Don't rate unless you approve, because if you do I'm going to add the relationships I suggested to my CS's. If I don't get a reply within a few days I'll bug you again just to make sure you saw it, and if you still don't reply I'll just list them as neutral.

  • Isabelle Johnson
    • Bridget - Hm, I can see them getting along, but Belle might be a little too social for Bridget to want to hang out with her often. Buddies?

    • Peter - Friends?

@MAD KING JAI

    • Phoebe - Buddies?

    • Phoebe - They'll be in volleyball together. But Phoebe would honestly hate her. Enemies?
    • Peter - They both are in the art club. Another friendly neutral? She seems to have too many walls for Peter to get close to her, but he'd still be nice.
  • Sabrina Fawn
    • Bridget - They both are in student council. But, Bridget will see how she is and avoid her at all costs... except for, they'll be living in the same hall. Maybe we could start them off as neutral and see how they act in the IC and go from there?

    • Peter - They'll both be in the equestrian club. Peter isn't a hateful person, but he wouldn't be able to stand her. Enemies?

    • Peter - Although Bart's constant flirting would get annoying, Peter would still enjoy his company. Friends?
  • Charlotte Willow
    • Bridget - Bridget would like her, but would probably shy away when she starts to pull other people into a conversation with them.Just because Charlotte seems like the type to include everyone. So, maybe buddies?
    • Phoebe - Roommates! I think Phoebe would oddly like her, a lot. I think they could grow to be really, really good friends. Maybe even Best Friends?
    • Peter - They'll both be in the equestrian and art club. She's easy to get along with, Peter will like her. Friends?

  • Aramis Calvin

    • Phoebe - Hm, Phoebe would probably just overlook him. Neutral?
    • Peter - They'll be roommates. I don't see Peter getting to know him too well, but I do think they'd get along just fine. Friendly neutral?

I'm sorry guys but I am going to have to leave this rp. I think right now I need to hold back on how many rps I join because I am still not in the best head space which might explain why I can't think up posts for this rp and I hate doing this but I am going to have to drop. Good luck and sorry for all the people that had relationships with my chars. Right now I think I need to set my limit on rps a little lower than my usual, since it's only going to make it less fun to rp than it should.

So what's happening here?
 
Right now I am out with my grandfather who is currently not doing well. I should be back fully Sunday, but with the condition he is in, I cannot promise anything. So until then, we are pausing this. I forgot to pass the message along to the thread, I'm sorry.
