no one wanted the first war, but most agree it had to happen. the second war was another story.
the scene of WW3 was cruel. it was what most expected - nuclear fallout, bioweapons, technology that did not belong in the hands of mankind. it ruined the earth, almost wiped it clean of humanity, but still the germ persisted. no one knows quite what triggered it, but it was a pot that had been boiling for a long time. humanity did not perish, but persisted, trying to grow and feed society in the last living crevices of the earth, the leftover military settlements and bunkers that had survived the force of the war. humanity changed, mutated, became different as it evolved to survive, but didn't lose it's capacity for creating suffering and so, as society finally got back on it's legs and burst anew from the war-torn Earth, using leftover technology for new ideals, a new crisis began. The First Mutant War.
--
it has only been 2 years since the First Mutant War, and tensions have seemed to have ceased between settlements as humans are once again picking back up the pieces of the turmoil they created, and society is in disarray.
more and more groups are estranged from the Fort settlements as they are deemed 'too changed' to be allowed back into 'regular society', and it feels like more people are going off on their own to brave the wasteland than deal with it all.
the main city, Fort Delta, along the old American northern east-coast, is the central hub for new human society. this is where the first struggle began, and was the first place to point guns.
Fort Alpha and Bravo are the main controlling settlements in the mid-west, close to where the bulk of the trashed wasteland remains un-rebuilt, and the more mutated humans reside. they are the resisting force and a safe haven for even the most mutant of people.
Fort Oscar is the farthest-west settlement, and it feels like no one has heard from them or any of the other west-coast settlements for a long time, and most people speculate that it was wiped off the map by Fort Delta at the start of the uprising. Fort Kilo, Fort Tango, and Fort Echo are deep in wasteland territory now.

the pressing problem of New America is when a human stops being a human, and this is why mutant folk struggle. to a degree, everyone is mutant, but some more than others, and this is where the controversy arises.
there are Stage 1 mutants, that have more adaptive properties, such as enhanced eyesight, senses, animal features, perhaps even strange abilities. Animal features are the most common mutation among humans.
then there are Stage 2 mutants, that are a lot more monster-like. their mutant features are marring and strange, perhaps even aggravated forms of Stage 1 mutation. with Stage 2 mutants, fantasy becomes reality, and it generally doesn't look pretty.

Cʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀs﹕
Armise "Armistice" Wicks 26 Male Armise is a tired-looking vagabond, tall in height at about 5'11", with a lean and unimpressive build. His skin is tan with a splash of starry freckles across his cheeks and glassy blue eyes framed by dark brows. He has bags beneath his eyes, and a scar going up from his chin, across the left side of his mouth and up his cheek. His tawny brown hair is short and messy, slightly curly and permanently wind-tossed. From his outfit, it's easy to tell where he's been and where he's going. He still wears the old Delta Military uniform from the First Mutant War, though now messy and worn from being in the wild. It consists of a green coat and brown pants with black boots, and he has the Air Force patch on his left shoulder as well as a pair of pilot's goggles sitting atop his head. A long red scarf wraps around his neck, and he always carries a backpack and beaten-up rifle. From being away from society for so long, Armise's personality could use some work. He is always attentive and alert, like a wild animal, and is rather quiet when alone by himself. He seems worn by time and tempered, but still trying to survive. It's as if he's hollowed out from the inside, but still going through the motions. There are whimsies of himself stuck behind, and he is always friendly to travelers he meets, no matter their origin or destination. He enjoys making people laugh, although his jokes may perhaps be a bit too quiet or dry. If anyone ends up close to him, they will have a taste of his fierce protectiveness. Armise is a Stage 1 mutant, with animal features that aren't as obvious as they used to be. The two spreading hawk wings on his back are long gone, a casualty of war. The only thing left of these mutations are the feathers that grow from the back of his neck, tawny brown to match his hair. Originates from Fort Delta Ex-military, vigilante wandering the wasteland with no destination. Also bi. The Blue Adept

Nikolas "Niko" 20 male Niko is a tall guy who stands at 6'3 or around there anyways. He's well built and muscular, with a pale complexion and dark brown eyes. He has brown hair that sometimes naturally fluffs up on his head and a bit of scruff on his face to go with it. He is very protective over his brothers, and would do anything for them. He's a bit of a socially awkward giant who doesn't like being alone and hates talking to people. He prefers to stick with his brothers and is pretty quiet. However he's very loyal and won't judge you, no matter what you do. He's also a master at self control, since he used to have a lot of anger issues and took it out badly. Despite this, he doesn't really know right from wrong and has a tendency to well...punch people if they get on his nerves. He is possibly the worst liar ever and can't lie to save his life, but he is a pretty good secret keeper since he'll just clam up or threaten someone to be quiet if they press for answers. He has a lot of respect for people and prefers to use a steel bat and his fists as weapons over anything else. Mutations: Black and white ruffed lemur ears and tail to go with abilities. He was separated from his actual family long ago and banded together with his brothers, who are the only family he knows now. They all sort of just wander around together. His brothers are Kai, Ty, and Norman, he's also straight. S'more
Kaiyo "Kai" 20 male Kai is a short guy, as he only stands at 5'6 and isn't gonna get any taller. He's also pretty lean, get also fairly strong so don't judge him. He has Caucasian/Asian skin, and light brown eyes, with a bunch of fluffy black feathers on his head that replace his hair. He is a bit interesting as he's pretty responsible and overall a nice, dorky guy who loves science and is overall far too naive for his own good. However he's also a sadist and pretty demented if given the chance, he's the most savage of all the brothers and is a real killer when he gets all crazy, which is triggered by multiple different things. He is also a bit aggressive and violent. Really without his brothers help, he probably wouldn't be all that great. He is however, a very trusting, very naive, stubborn, and rash dork who jumps to conclusions way too fast and is the type of guy who falls hard and fast in love. He is a bit weird, as he has Gentoo penguin feathers instead of hair, so wherever any normal person would have hair, he has feathers. He also has webbed fest and ear holes instead of actual ears. However he also has a long chameleon tail, chameleon eyes, and all the abilities that come with both a penguin and a chameleon. Origin: Same as Niko. His brothers are Niko, Ty, and Norman, he's also straight. Also he invented a chameleon suit that he wears underneath his clothes that can camouflage with him. S'more
Tyler "Ty" 20 male Ty is a tall guy who stands at 6'1 exactly. He has naturally tan skin and dark fluffy black hair which he keeps in a small ponytail. His eyes are a light green and he has scars all over his arms and back, but he makes sure to cover those up at all times. He's an interesting character, as he appears very laid back and flirtatious, not to mention narcissistic. However he's almost always planning something and is the real leader of the brothers. He puts them first no matter what and if quite intelligent. He is also very fierce and stubborn, he isn't afraid to stand up for what he believes in and will challenge anyone if they get in his way. He's also fairly flirtatious but tends to say most flirting for when he's also fighting, as he calls it flirtfighting. He is very protective of his brothers and anyone else he lets in. He has a tendency to be more friendly towards strangers and will bring in strays far too often for the others liking. Stage 1 mutant with cat ears and tail, along with fangs, claws, and whiskers too, to go with his cat like abilities. Origin: Same as Niko's. His brothers are Niko, Kai, and Norman, he's also Pansexual. S'more
Norman 15 male Norman is pretty average in height as he stands at 5'9 and still growing. He has pale skin that is covered in freckles and his eyes are a dark green. He has a mop of orange curls on his head that don't seem to want to be tamed. Norman is an interesting character as he has a lot of walls and different masks and personas he puts up for different people. He's great at reading people, lying, and manipulating others, he is only truly himself around his brothers, yet sometimes he even deceives them. He puts on a different act for different people and at times it's really hard to know who the real Norman is. Sometimes he doesn't even know. So it's really something he's still figuring out for himself. Stage 1 mutant with red squirrel ears and tail, along with squirrel like abilities and senses. Origin: Same as Niko's. His brothers are Niko, Kai, and Ty, he's also Bi but isn't aware of that yet, as he is a very confused little teenager. S'more

Aiden W. Hamilton 22 Female Tall and imposing in a sense, Aiden is a olive-skinned girl who stands at 5'10". Her expression is usually angry, and her features don't seem to help much in that case. Her eyes are a dark brown color, sunken into her face a bit, with thick dark eyebrows and numerous facial piercings. She has plump lips, a square jaw, a 'ski jump' nose, and a buzzcut. On her left eyebrow, Aiden has a stud and ring, and on her lower lip, she has a labret piercing and snakebites as well with rings. Her ears are heavily pierced as well, adorned with industrial bars, lobe rings and studs. Aiden's outfit consists of a normal old white t-shirt, a worn black trench coat jacket, cargo-like black pants, and hefty combat boots. She usually keeps an array of knives stashed away in the pouch that hangs off her belt, and a gun holstered on the other side of her hip. Unsurprisingly enough from her appearance, Aiden is a tough cookie. Hardheaded and overzealous, and rather mean to really anybody. Much like her mutation, she's built armor around herself to keep people out. That's how she likes it. She can be protective of friends and people she finds herself caring about, but to anyone else, they receive the cold shoulder. Aiden's mutation is an ugly, frightening sight to most, but can be very useful in an array of situations. Her skin can harden to the density of titanium, impenetrable and cold. Whenever her mutation is used, the area of skin 'being used' turns black and shiny, like metal. Stage 2 mutation. Originally lived in Fort Oscar before the Mutant War, and is now wandering the wasteland. Neptune

Robbie Williams 23 Male Standing at 5’10 and lanky, Robbie doesn’t seem to win in the muscular category. Having more smarts than dashing good looks, this boy uses that to let people underestimate him and let him coast through life. He has wildish brown hair that is styled in a way that makes it seem like a went through a car race with the roof down.

Constance Falk twenty-five years old female Standing at six foot two, with a pretty wide build and obvious, lean muscle on her, Connie cuts a pretty intimidating picture. Her skin is tanned from spending so much time outside, although still relatively lightens covered in freckles. She has blue eyes and red hair that reaches past her shoulders. She's almost always found wearing a black and red varsity jacket, as well as a dark tan stetson. Connie could generally be described as a kind person, who likes to connect with people on a deeper, emotional level. She's empathetic in the sense that she feels for a person, and therefore must help them resolve their problems. With an intense curiosity and interest in the weird and abnormal, she can often be found caught up in impromptu, impassioned rants about subjects she finds particular interest in. As of recently, living in the wasteland, she's become more guarded and quicker to jump to violence as an answer. Her faceclaim is Sharon Belle. Here's a fun one. Connie, being a level two mutation, is pretty messed up. However, it's not outright obvious. Her entire torso, from the middle of her sternum down to her navel, appears to have a massive scar, with small, branching scars off of it. Except, then this "scar" opens up. Yeah, splits open, flesh curled up and leaving a gaping hole where tens of black tentacles squirm around inside. Course, she can control those tentacles and extend them outside of her body, use them in fights and whatnot. Also, how convenient, she can shove things inside her tentacle gap and consume the things. Connie hails from fort sierra. She be super gay. biography of southern rain

Jaime Lucero-ranke 29 Male Towering at 6'4", skinny with broad shoulders and a wide chest, and lean muscles coiled underneath his warm brown, sun-kissed and rough. Although one would think him a looming presence, he isn't very threatening with his bad posture and a child-like, mischievous glint in his eyes. His face is long and just as thin as his body, with high cheekbones, a sharp, crooked nose, and pointed chin. He has thick, wispy dark brown hair, shaven on each side, leaving only a long fluffy strip of it, never fixed up into a proper Mohawk. His face carries a thick, ugly, pinkish scar that runs from his forehead, through his thick brown eyebrow and right eye, twisting all the way down to his mouth and chin. The right side of his mouth looks to be eaten away, torn up, thick with scar tissue, revealing some of his crooked, yellowing teeth and gums. His eyes are a piercing, moody green, with darker flecks of green around the slit-like pupils; his eyesight isn't very good, due to mutation. Jaime's attire is tattered dusty blue jeans, with old worn out brown leather boots, a riddled, thin white tank-top and an black old leather pilot jacket, and most of the time, a black and white patterned bandanna tied around his face, to cover his unsettling smile and as much of the scar it can. Jaime, despite the Hell that's been unleashed due to the recent wars, is a very optimistic and humorous fellow. He's always wearing some kind of smile on his lips, even though he hides it underneath the bandanna due to feeling self-conscious over his mutated and damaged face. Jaime is very sensitive about his outward appearance, feeling like he resembles something like a hideous monster, but he knows he isn't alone. He enjoys laughing, which can be contagious despite it sounding loony and off. When it comes to getting annoyed, Jaime has a biting wit and sarcasm that can often lead to most feeling offended. He does have a bad temper that he'd learned to control over time, but it doesn't take much to make him bull-raging mad. Jaime is cautious, and very observant, choosing to be silent when he finds it necessary to be. Sometimes he isn't fully 'there', and has a tendency to zone out, daydream a lot. He's not exactly social, but indeed likes occasional company from time to time. Stage 2 mutation; Where human canines should be are two, sharp, knife-like fangs, that at times drip a venomous, possible acid-like transparent greenish-yellow liquid, that has an unbearably sweet smell to it. Under any type of emotional pressure, like fear, anger, a survival mode similar to flight-or-fight, the skin on his arms, neck, chest, and back, painfully break out into sharp, brown-black and pale yellow scales, rough, thick, and dull in color. This can give him some, small protection against attacks, and can keep damage to a minimum, making injuries not as severe. His eyesight already bad, it's helpful that during this does he have a snakes, 'heat-seeking vision', which can be very useful, especially during the nighttime. His jaw also gains the unnatural ability to become very flexible, allowing his mouth to open as wide as he wants, for possibly a more lethal bite. Once the threat is gone, the scales start a molting process, which can be painful considering he'd rather peel it off than let it naturally rub/fall off. His home state was somewhat near Fort Tango, and because of that his once beautiful desert home is now a heaping land of waste and possible radiation danger zone. He ruins a lot of bandanna's and clothes because of the annoying glands that produce the deadly poison. The way he pronounces certain letters or words can sound off, due to missing part of his lips/mouth. Jaime isn't a big fan of guns, and steers clear of needing to use them. He absolutely hates the cold, and prefers somewhere hot and dry. He does carry with him a small tattered, dirt-covered pack, with a stolen gas mask inside and a few other colored bandannas, and a rusty old machete on his back. GryffinStar
