Every human has a little bit of stardust.
The Zodiac constellation that governs the sky on one's day of birth decides one's element. Humans develop an affinity to their element and are able to affect and control it marginally upon adulthood. These abilities built and destroyed civilizations and societies as history passed. It was nature and it was known.
However, the age of technology dawned on the human race with even greater challenges. Plagues and famines swept out populations by the thousands. Cures that are found don't always work on all elements. New studies prove that there is a real difference in the capabilities of the Signs and their elements. The unbalance is causing tensions within nations and governments are trying to find solutions before civil wars tear countries apart.
You only knew this through the textbooks. Your whole life was spent in a facility and you were named after the Sign you were born in. Experiments done to you were not always humane, but it had changed your affinity to your element in drastic ways.
You are an Anomaly and this is your tale.

There were only ever a handful of you, in your memory. Twelve, to be exact. But one by one, some of your brethren died of cardiac arrest. One, while you were in class. Another while you were eating. One didn't come back from an operation. And so on. You don't completely understand how these things happened and you have a feeling any of you may be next. But Aquarius had an idea.
Aquarius was left the eldest after the others' deaths. While the experiments completely removed his control of Air, he was brilliant and a little crazy, a headache to the researchers that manned the facility. He's organized pranks and games with his creative little schemes. He knows your talents and encouraged you to do even better. If you had a device, he'd let you test it on him. If you had a concoction, he'll volunteer to taste it. So when he said it was time to escape, you believed in him and put your faith in him even if his plan seemed half-baked.
Just when your group has outsmarted the researchers with nothing but your talents and abilities, Aquarius collapses right at the gate.
In the three years that followed your escape and the loss of the big brother you had looked up to, you and the remaining Anomalies banded together with the goal of destroying the research that robbed you of your humanity. You'd act upon Aquarius' plan to take down the Bureau of Advanced Research. It's time for revenge.

You live in an underground bunker made out of an abandoned club's basement. The front door is barred and the entrance is through a dumpster at the back of what's left of the building before the fire you never witnessed destroyed it. The empty dumpster keeps hidden a hole in the wall which you and your fellow Anomalies crawl through. Inside was a makeshift base, the center of all your activity. Your group had turned to a life of crime to gather the funds and resources you need for the big plan. After all this time, Aquarius still guides you.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is where your story starts.

Welcome, to a role play created by Boss Megu and Mippu.
Before we create your characters, let's have a few ground rules, more of a guide than anything else.
Before we create your characters, let's have a few ground rules, more of a guide than anything else.
1. All Iwaku rules and guidelines exist, and are followed in this RP.
2. @Mippu is my fellow GM. Her word is LAW, just as well as mine. :3
3. No god-modding. As co-GMs, @Mippu and I are the exception, but only if your character is inactive, or with you give us explicit permission to move them, carry them or shove them
4. ONLY ONE character per person. There are 12 zodiacs, 4 are dead, effectively. Let everyone have one please.
5. This is an Adept-leveled RP. Let us write at least 1 paragraph length post. Typo's are fine, everyone does it.
6. ALERT Boss Megu or MIPPU when you are quitting, going on hiatus, away for a bit, or are unable to post for a few days because of so and so. We would appreciate it. That way we won't wait for you.
7. Questions are welcome and we will gladly attempt to answer them. If you feel shy, PM us.
8. Let's be POLITE and PLAY NICE. Arguments are to be taken via PM. Let's not disrupt those who have no part.
9. If you've read the RULES, please add anywhere in your sheet "Anomaly". ;)
10. Because I am OC, I will have ten rules. PLEASE HAVE FUN.
