For those of you who haven't watched the show Misfits, here is a brief rundown (in list form!):
  • Kids are on Probation
  • Strange storm hits and gives everyone powers based on personalities
  • Powers run rampant, and hilarity (and danger) ensues


Each episode introduces a new problem and then solves it, while there are some overarching inter-episodal issues. I want to run a few quick quests based off of this idea. So here is the deal.

It is twenty years after the storm hit and the powers have pretty much become scarce. However, those who were just babies at the time the storm hit are now beginning to manifest their powers, having finally reached a point in their lives where their personalities are heavily defined (this plays a crucial part in determining what your powers are). You will be playing these people. I need 4 or 5 players per run. Each run will have various encounters, essentially having storylines that encompass multiple episodes. Each Season will have 3 episodes, the last of which will be the Finale for said season and give way to new characters. Player characters will die or leave, and new players will be cycled in as it goes on.

You get to choose one power, based on the personality of your character. Powers can be anything, save for godly/overpowered ones (aka time/space relate, omnipotence, invincibility to everything, etc.) If you wanna play, just fill out this:

Damn thing wouldn't let me post before, so I sent my character to Max directly. Stupid mobile. Anyway, I'll post it here once we hammer out the details. Got some specifics that need worked on.

You don't have to be yourself. I am myself but... also not myself. I'll use my appearance and mannerisms etc, but it's not really me. Also, I almost chose technomancy. Almost. :3

Frog's power sounds interesting but a tad OP. C'est la Misfits. XD

Looks like we have our first team!

@Luke: Check to see if Technomancy == Technological Manipulation. I tend to believe they are but sometimes Technomancy also includes creation of things that would not be scientifically plausible yet can be made due to the "magic-like" nature of "Technomancy."

A note to all potential players:

After you choose your powers, they will be capped at the beginning. I will notify you via PM what your cap is when the game starts. For example:

Daniel has Super Strength. In the beginning, he will only be able to lift something up to 1 1/2 times his body weight. However, each episode he will be able to lift more, so in EP2 he might be able to lift 2 times his body weight and EP3 he might be able to lift three to four times his body weight.

This is because Episodes are NOT consecutive days. An Episode may take any amount of time, from a week to a month to maybe two months, and between episodes there is time too.

Think Technological Manipulation + The ability to "read" electronics. I.E. I could turn on a computer and gain information without touching it, and without the use of a monitor, mouse, or keyboard. I could tell what files have recently been read by a computer, and I could read raw data. Encryption would still work against my attempts to read something, but I could *probably* crack it given enough time and enough practice. Compression algorithms are not encryption, and 1337 gives me a migraine.
