a shot in the dark ... the last chance for manβin order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be presentβ
Nuclear weapons have destroyed over 99% of all living life on Earth. In a last ditch effort to ensure the survival of the human race, leaders from across the globe sent a small group into space to colonize a planet light years away.
These were not volunteers and many were taken against their will, leaving their families behind. Ethnicity, religion, nor financial status were not taken into equation when the group was chosen. Instead, scientists searched for as many people as they could possibly find with the genetic modification known as the 'X-virus'.
The X-virus is a natural genetic grouping found in less than one percent of people. This 'virus' allows the individual to survive in a state of cryostasis. With this ability, the scientist were able to send a shuttle into space with 113 passengers referred to with the code name 'X-Men'

RULES
β’ i. I don't have a lot of formal rules, just your basic ones tbh. As for this rule I'm just going to put it out there, you have to follow forum rules. That's a given. Also be a 'good' roleplayer. You know what this means, no god modding, perfect characters, etc.
β’ ii. I expect you to be active at least three times a week, meaning I want a minimum of three replies per week, this shouldn't be that hard to do. Though I understand if stuff gets in the way, just try and talk to me about it first.
β’ iii. This will be an advanced roleplay, meaning I want at least two good paragraphs per post. Roughly 300 words, though I do ask that you at least try to match your roleplay partner's post length.
β’ iv. If you have any questions or ideas about the plot or the world itself just ask! I'd be more than happy to fill you in.
β’ v. This probably doesn't belong here but I'll put it here anyways. To keep the front page 'clean' I'm just going to put your characters name on the front page under 'members list' with a link embedded in it to your full length joining form.
β’ vi. Have fun! If you aren't enjoying this roleplay, make sure to tell me and I can try and think of something to make ends meet! (:

The Earth that was destroyed many years ago is much different than the Earth you and I know today. The rocket that left Earth carrying the 'X-Men' (not actually x-men, just the code word for it. Similar to Project Star Wars, a proposed defense plan by Ronald Reagan in the 1980s) left the planet in the year 2990. The rocket had a self operating system that was capable of running up to an extra one hundred years longer than it needed to in case anything went wrong. The shuttle, dubbed Andromeda, carried 113 passengers that were preserved in a cryostasis state for the duration of the 113 year long journey. However, not everyone made it. Of the 113 passengers: 23 died due to their body not being able to handle the freezing state 27 woke up too early and died of unknown causes before the Andromeda landed 14 never woke up from the cryostasis 9 committed suicide within the first week of landing 18 died of natural causes after landing on the planet Meaning twenty-two people are all that remains of the human race. We are an endangered species, verging on extinct. That being said, it has been over a year since the Andromeda landed on Planet X and, with the help of a docu-series created by the last surviving humans on Earth, life has become a little bit easier. That is until someone who wasn't supposed to wake up- woke up. One of the bodies who didn't wake up upon the landing now joins his fellow survivors, only one thing is different - he remembers Earth. It is assumed that the scientists wiped the memories of the X-Men before they left Earth, though it's unknown what really happened, but there is hope that with all of the evidence left on the Andromeda, as well as the boy who woke up, that they might be able to regain their missing memories. To make matters even more difficult Allen (the one who woke up) says that the current leader is not only a murderer, but also the person responsible for starting the whole war on Earth. Though with no memories to recall such an act, the remaining survivors must decide who to believe Allen, or their trusted leader who had protected them since they all woke. This can lead to potentially two camps, one splitting with Allen, the other with the current leader. The one with Allen lives in huts near the water, while the others live on the Andromeda. Wildlife here is very similar to what it was on Earth, many animals resembling deer, fox, bears, and other animals of the sort reside on this planet. Though they do have their own little 'alien twist'. I don't have any specifics on what wildlife is regulated to this world or what they look like, but if you have ideas let me know! Besides, we're all building this world together (:

I won't be adding Allen to the roleplay for another couple of posts, because I'd like for everyone who joins to be able to take a breather before we head into the plot lol Oh and feel free to copy this post form if you'd like (: EMILE -- Andromeda / STARTER -- OPEN FOR ANYONE TO REPLY Beep! Beep! Beep! Emile groaned as he searched for the alarm clock by his bed, desperately trying to click snooze just one more time. He reached out with his long arm before clumsily knocking the dreaded instrument on the ground and out of reach. With an exasperated sigh the young man sat up, albeit slowly, wiping the sleep from his green eyes with delicate fingers. He leaned back against the wall behind him trying his best not to think about all the chores he would have to do today. Beep! Beep! Beep! Emile groaned, forgetting entirely about the doomed machine that had woken him. He swung his slender, tanned legs over the edge of the bed, leaning down to grasp the alarm clock with his long arms and turning it off. 11:!7! Who the hell let me sleep in so late? A familiar pain shot in his head as it felt like his brain was about to explode, looking down at the empty champagne bottles by his bed reminded him of why he had slept in so late. "Oh my god..." He croaked in English, rubbing exhaustion from his eyes. "I hope Ansa has some Tylenol..." Standing on weary legs, he leaned against the nearest wall for support before making his way to the bathroom. A quick shower later, Emile finished his morning routine before slipping on some clothes -pants and a long sleeve shirt because of the 13 degrees Celsius temperature and cloudy skies that the Andromeda's weather forecaster had predicted- and heading out the door of his 8x8 room into the main lobby of the spaceship.
God, if you're listening here on this foreign planet, I'm begging you... please let them be serving quiche for breakfast... Much to his disappointment, Emile settled for rationed oatmeal with no sugar and a Dr. Pepper. In all honesty he was surprised that his favorite carbonated beverage had made it onto the Andromeda, but boy was he glad that it did. It may seem odd but it was a comfort drink for him, he couldn't place it as to why it was... it just was. If only I remembered Earth... and why I feel this longing to be there... With great disgust and a long sigh, Emile sat down at one of the many seats in the cafeteria and dug into his oatmeal, scarfing it down in only a few quick bites.

Ansa had woken up an hour or so earlier, pulling herself out of bed and getting dressed in a simple t-shirt and jeans. She didn't particularly need warm clothes, since the cold had never been a problem for her, somewhat unsurprisingly. She had brushed out her ashy blonde hair, choosing not to put it in a short ponytail that day, something she sometimes did since her hair was just long enough to do this without it looking too short.
Once satisfied with her appearance, the tall woman had headed out of her room and out into the rest of the ship, making a beeline towards the cafeteria area.
She had gotten her own breakfast, adding a little bit of sugar to her oatmeal and grabbing some water. She didn't really like having sugary, carbonated drinks with her breakfast, and she didn't know how Emile did it. Though he really did have some sort of connection with Dr Pepper that she neither understood nor wanted to understand.
Talking of Emile, Ansa was just cleaning up after her own breakfast when the Frenchman headed into the cafeteria and grabbed himself his own breakfast. The Finnish woman noted that he looked like absolute death - and she knew exactly why that was. No wonder he'd slept in.
So she approached him, sitting on the seat opposite with a mischievous smile on her face. Normally she wasn't like this - certainly, she wasn't the one to initiate conversations most of the time, but she simply couldn't resist. Her desire to mess with Emile overrode her generally quiet and measured nature.
"HyvÀÀ huomenta!" the woman said deliberately loudly, just to mess with Emile's hangover.
But she returned her voice to its normal volume as she continued.
"Ahaa, looks like someone can't handle his picole," Ansa said with a chuckle, before adding "I might have some painkillers in my room if you want some."
She often spoke English with the others on board the ship, sometimes dropping the odd Finnish word or phrase in there if she wanted to. But most of the time when she communicated with Emile she'd occasionally drop whatever bits of French she knew in there too, just to show she was making an effort. Sometimes it was nice to know that other people were putting that little bit of extra thought into what they were saying.
He probably would, she thought as her grey-blue eyes looked him over once again. Especially since she'd made his headache worse already this morning. Plus, the two of them got on quite well. And not just because Ansa appreciated having another tall person on board the Andromeda.
Vocab
HyvÀÀ huomenta - good morning (Finnish) Ahaa - aha/I see (Finnish) Picole - booze (French)

Emile groaned as a familiar tone greeted him from afar. "On y va!" He muttered under his breath, clutching his head in pain as she raised her voice. With a not so menacing glare the Frenchman began to rub his temples comfortingly. "You my friend are a bad influence on me. Last night was evident of that." He said, taking a sip of his soda to clear his throat.
Despite his not so friendly demeanor, he and Ansa got along quite well. He especially enjoyed it when she spoke French to him, it was an interesting sound when the foreign language escaped her Finnish tongue. She had been one of the first friends he had made here and thoroughly enjoyed her company. "Go gΓ©ante. Bring me your painkillers." He mock-ordered, stepping on her toe. "I don't know how you eat this... likavesi." Emile sighed, trying his hand at a bit of Finnish. She made an effort to speak to him in his native tongue, so why not do the same? He spun the spoon along his delicate fingers before dropping down on the oatmeal, making a discomforting noise.
All of a sudden he stopped, taking a second to smell the air. "Ahaa! You dog! I smell sugar on your breath, I thought we were running low? Did someone find more?" He questioned, practically begging for the blonde woman to share her secrets. With a quick glance around the cafeteria he drew closer before whispering, just loud enough for Ansa to hear. "If you stole it... I won't tell." A mischievous twinkle in his eye as his lips spread to form a smile. Say what you will, but Emile was not a rat, especially when it came to his friends... and if something benefited him.. or neglected someone he disliked... or if it had the chance to turn amusing... Okay okay, maybe don't tell Emile your secrets... unless it's about sugar. Dude needs something to down this oatmeal with.
Vocabulary:
On y va! - Here we go! - French gΓ©ante - giant - French likavesi - sewage/slop - Finnish

"I thought the French liked their drink too," Ansa said with a raised eyebrow when Emile called her a bad influence "clearly you are all just rÀÀpÀleet. I could outdrink you any day. And, in fact, I do."
She liked to think of herself as tough, though she knew alcohol tolerance was in no way related to her actual strength or toughness. She just enjoyed pretending she was superior. Even though she was far from the strongest person on the ship. And him stepping on her toe was a perfect opportunity to pretend she was tough, as she bit her lip and pretended it didn't hurt her.
It looked like she would be needing painkillers too.
The Finn groaned when Emile smelled the sweetness of the sugar on her breath, clearly smug that he had caught her and a little furious that she had found a supply of sugar.
"voi paska," she muttered with a sigh, defeated.
She considered refusing to tell him, but that would be a pretty horrible thing to do, plus he kind of deserved to have a little bit of sugar for the oatmeal he rather accurately described as sewage - she had to admit she had given him a smile when he spoke a little Finnish. It made her happy to hear him speaking her language. No, she needed to tell him. He was a good person, and they were as good friends as you could get in their situation.
She leaned closer to him so she could whisper.
"Il y a un tout petit peu restants dans la cuisine" she whispered, "in the cupboard furthest to the left."
Once she had finished whispering she stood up, brushing some hair behind her ear.
"Alright, my little friend, I'll go and get your painkillers. I'll be just a moment." she said.
While she was gone, Emile could go and hunt down the sugar she had told him about. It wouldn't take long for either of them to fulfil their little tasks.
And so she returned a few minutes later with a couple of tablets in her hand, setting them on the table for Emile. She hoped he had been able to find his sugar, otherwise, he would probably be furious with her or something, and that wasn't something she wanted to deal with. She hadn't had any major arguments with him or anything, but she suspected that it wasn't something she wanted to happen. Not just with Emile, though it would be hell, but being in an argument with someone in a confined space was never a good thing.
Vocab rÀÀpÀleet - weaklings (Finnsh) voi paska - oh, shit (Finnish) Il y a un tout petit peu restants dans la cuisine - there is a tiny bit left in the kitchen (French)
