FALLOUTS![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/Biohazard_symbol.svg/100px-Biohazard_symbol.svg.png) This image belongs to Wikimedia and I stake no claim on it nor do I intend to use it for purposes that would infringe on copyrights. I just wanted to make this look cool!
In an attempt to study the effects of radiation on humans that were exposed to continuous amounts, scientists built a laboratory that could sufficiently sustain itself, like a self-contained city, and experimented on young infants by exposing them to radioactive iodine. Many died but a select few survived to grow into young children and teens that possess abilities beyond which the scientists never imagined. These children have never experienced life. They have been confined to their small level of the building all their lives, acting as lab rats for the scientists to study. They've never seen the sky or felt the grass under their toes. The scientists took their freedom and made them freaks of nature. They've been kind enough, never inherently mean or cruel, just not loving or fair. They have fed them, clothed them and some of the scientists even named a few, though the names are just for show and they aren't spoken during testing. Mostly, they named themselves. We named ourselves. My name is Rysa. I've been here for as long as I can remember and I hate it. I hate these walls, I hate the food, I hate the scientists and their stupid, smug faces. They aren't like us. They can't do the things we can do. They've had us for so long that they've forgotten; they've forgotten who we are and what we want. Well, hear it from me: We are the Fallouts and we want out.
To keep this rp from getting too crazy, there are fifteen spots open for Fallout characters, not including mine, and a few for the main positions of power in the lab. The scientists/grunts themselves will be NPCs most likely because that'll make posts way easier if we don't have to worry about godmodding the scientists. Note: the positions of power in the lab are the only scientists who AREN'T NPCs. I know that seems obvious, but I wanted to make sure I said it.
RULES: there are a few 1. Follow the forum rules 1.5: be nice to people 2. no mary-sues or gary-stues 3. No godmodding OR powerplaying. like I know these guys have powers, but all of these powers have drawbacks and side effects. These characters, while enhanced, aren't invincible. 4. No killing off someone else's character unless they say you can. ALSO, you CAN kill NPC scientists, but keep in mind that if your char does that, they'll probably be punished for it. 5. This rp is in 3rd person, despite my little blurb with Rysa up there. 6. No restrictions on character preferences. LGBT characters welcome 7. I'm pretty chill about activity. Just be on once a week or so. 8. POSTS: must be about three sentences per, preferably more, but it's not required.
TO JOIN: I hate forms. Just tell me the age of the character (around 6-17), their name, gender, whether they're a Fallout or a Scientist and what power they have. Appearances and personality can be described in the actual roleplaying.
CHARACTERS: 4/15 Screen name: Hawki || Rysa || female | 15 | super speed (drawbacks: Rysa gets exhausted easily if she uses her superspeed and she'll often crash into walls or injure her feet even if she has shoes on)
Screenname: valkoinenleuka || Valkoinen || female | 17 | strength (drawback: Aggression and impaired judgement)
Screenname: valkoinenleuka || Mikael || male | 16 | healing (drawback: exhausting)
screenname: petewentztheemogod || Mikey || 17 || Male || powers over fire (drawbacks: he can get very violent with his power, and his body heats up whether he likes it or not and if he uses too much, he gets burned. Badly.)
Screen name: LiliesoftheDawn || Aria || female || 16 || Aria's power is destruction. She can choose to turn anything into dust. However, it takes pretty large amounts of energy to destroy anything larger than her own hand and she must be touching it with bare skin. Plus, she has pretty bad control over it and is terrified of touching anything living, because she might lose control.

Rysa kicked at a wall as she sat down in the mess with her tray of food. She despised the place enough already and it wasn't like her sneakers would scuff the walls or anything. The food in the lab wasn't horrible, considering it was a self-sufficient building and a few of the chefs used to work in restaurants or something supposedly. Huh, she thought testily, we're lucky they feed us at all. I wonder if they would go far enough to use starving us as a punishment?
(that's the worst post I've ever written D:)

Valkoinen had been napping on the floor, lying on her stomach with her arms folded under her head. The years of testing had turned her pale in all aspects. Her hair, her skin, even her eyes. She hadn't seen the sun since infancy, but that was probably a good thing. She was sensitive to temperature and light, even variations in the air conditioning and the wrong wattage of lightbulb could irritate her. She didn't like the labs much, but she couldn't imagine life outside it.
Mika, on the other hand, hadn't had much sleep over the last few nights. The experiments had seemed to become more frequent lately, mostly waking him in the evenings when he tried to sleep. Now he'd become cautious and he'd avoided sleep since last night and most of today. He was hoping they wouldn't come to take him tonight if he didn't try to rest. He wasn't certain what else to do.

Rysa finished her food and pushed her chair back, leaving her tray and trash where it was. She knew she was supposed to be polite about it, but the scientists hadn't been polite about experimenting on her--on any of the Fallouts--so she saw no need to go out of her way to show them the respect that they had taken from the others. She wandered past kids who waved and greeted her as she went, heading to find Mika who was having another of his usual bouts of insomnia. It wasn't uncommon, given that the scientists could come for them at any hour of the night and that some of the Fallouts they took never came back and were soon replaced with more candidates. Still, Rysa went to see him, concerned despite the fact that none of them slept very well unless the scientists slipped them sleeping pills secretly. She knocked on the doorjamb of his room, remembering her manners this time. "Hey, Mika. How's it goin'?"

Mika gave a fairly bad start when he heard the knock. He sat up as his head snapped to the source. He recognized Rysa, though he didn't exactly relax. His only response was a small shrug. He wasn't certain how to answer. He didn't usually make an effort to speak to the other Fallouts. He tended to be fairly shy about interacting with others. He wanted to believe they were all nice, though he couldn't help but feel the scientists had bribed some of the others into acting certain ways to find information they couldn't collect otherwise.
Valkoinen shifted a bit in her sleep, rolling herself over to her side. She wasn't the friendliest person in the holding room. She was guarded, irritable, and she tended to raise her voice very easily. She was unsocialized, though could anyone here truly be? She heard a few footsteps out in the hall and she opened her eyes a bit, blinking as they adjusted to the light in the room. She gave a small sigh and rolled again onto her back.

Rysa wasn't deterred from speaking even when Mika didn’t respond. She wasn’t the kind of person who backed down very easily, though she did know how to take a hint. “Okay,” she brushed her brown hair out of her face, “just lemme know if you need someone to talk to.” She left the room with a tiny, concerned furrow of her brows. Rysa wandered through the white walls, glaring unhappily at the fluorescent lights above her head like it was all their fault. She wasn’t sure why she felt so responsible for the other Fallouts and when one of them wasn’t doing well, it made her unhappy. Although, how well could one do, being a lab rat who was never allowed to see sunlight with the threat of death looming everywhere?
(eeh I gtg. x_x it's super late and I'd write better posts after I've had some sleep. Thanks so much for joining this~ See you later.)

(I have class and work today so i won't be on till late. It's also a friends birthday so i told her we'd play Starbound together)
Mika gave a small nod in response waiting until she left before resting his back against the wall. He couldn't keep up like this. He had to sleep at some point... If he made himself sick doing this, they'd say it was his own fault, that he should have taken better care of himself. The paranoia itself was infuriating, and he couldn't heal illnesses as far as he knew, so he'd probably take a while to recover from any sickness. That wouldn't stop the tests, of course.
As she grew more awake, rubbing at her eyes and yawning wide enough to pop her jaw, Valkoinen sat up. She looked toward the door that the scientists usually entered through. She suspected there was probably a secret entrance they didn't know about in case they blocked this one. It wouldn't be hard to do, they were provided with basic furniture, and she had the strength to move them around. Either way, she'd probably get snapped at if she tried.

Mikey tried to fight back as he was ushered into the Commons room, shutting every colourful word as he heated up his hands and burned everything he could lay his hands on, causing several hisses of pain and discomfort as their fire-resistant suits protected them for the most part. But they hadn't prepared enough for this much of an explosive outburst of violence from Mikey, coming straight for forcing him to use his powers until all he could see was red from his own fires as he set everything in that goddamn training place ablaze. He was pretty sure he had burned people too, which he didn't care about because he would gladly do it again. A couple more burn scars littering his back didn't matter to Mikey. He was simply adding to the extensive collection of pain.
The cold tiles of the floor seemed to seep into the palms of his hot hands as Mikey was shoved into the room and pushed into the floor carelessly, dirty looks sent his way from the scientists as he growled at them with malice and pure hatred. Soon he found himself standing up and walking over to the wall, his worn black boots creating loud thuds in the silent room. And then his fist was sent flying to the wall with a loud roar of, "[fudge]ing [richard]s!" Creating a loud thud and a scorch mark on the wall, and pain to shoot up Mikey's hand. He didn't realize there was another person in the commons room with him, he was too busy trying not to burn the whole place down.
(Probably the worst starter I have ever written)
(But, hopefully it's good, and geesus mikes do u need a hug or smth)
