GMs:
Lie RenOmniaIt's the year 670 PGI (Post Great Innudation). Only 670 years ago, the Earth was ravaged by a series of great tsunamis and earthquakes. Along with the decay of the magnetic field, which caused sea levels to rise immensely, the natural disasters sunk much of the Earth's land. Now, only parts of Asia and North America are left. However, the west coast of North America sunk due to a giant earthquake that destroyed land from California to Mexico and mid-Canada. If there were any people left, the floods following the earthquake killed them all. Scientists quickly tweaked untested technology to create a safe haven from the floods. At the center of midwestern and eastern North America, the illustrious city of Lumina stands.
Lumina is home to the surviving major corporations, and the CEOs of these corporations have taken over the government. This oligarchy, now known as The Foundation, expects all to worship them, as they were the ones who saved them from the floods, and the citizens happily complied, if only to stay safe. However, what they didn't know was that the corporations only let a certain number of people into the protected city. Their doctors tracked how many died and they let more in accordingly. This left many decent people out with criminals and the mentally insane, who never would be let in, as well as wild animals who became lost due to the decayed magnetic fields, leading them to become more hostile. They rarely survived long.
The corporations made the force-field visible by building a dome around its perimeter, but the dome was made out of mirrors and mirrors only, so no one could see in or out. The Foundation spied on all the citizens, planting cameras around every corner and having their robotic army patrol the streets.They banished anyone that was accused doing anything that might be considered heresy against it, even if wrongly accused. The heretics were quietly sent outside the Floodgate, the entrance to Lumina, never to return, or to be privately executed, depending on “how serious” their “crime” was. The Foundation became more and more corrupt over the years, and there were rumors of a plot to purge the Borderlands and take over Asia, giving them more territory and people to rule over. It was also said after invading Asia, they would wipe the memory of those in their empire so that they wouldn’t remember what atrocities they had committed. These rumors, though true, were quickly dispelled, and those who were involved in the plot were not permitted to leak information about it. If suspected, they would be sent to the Borderlands and purged with the rest.
Outside the domed city, uprisings were born but died before they even reached the Floodgate, due to the uncooperating criminals and the uncontrollable mentally insane. If they ever started traveling to the Floodgate, animals most likely killed them within a week.
Recently, banished scientists accused of leaking information to the public brought secret technology The Foundation was building to replace the robotic soldiers and use less power to the Borderlands in their luggage, which remained unchecked due to The Foundation’s overconfidence and lax security. The Foundation planned to put bionic chips into randomly selected citizens after kidnapping them and taking them to a lab, where the chip would be put into their brain without consent, as they thought people wouldn’t want the chip put into them when they found out the operation was potentially fatal, but some scientists disagreed.
The bionic chips continued to be modified in the HQ of an organization that desired to rise up against The Foundation and take over Lumina, but they were still missing something -- subjects. They decided teenagers or young adults would be most fit for the operation, as they were usually more physically fit.
Your character is either a recently banished citizen (does not have to be a scientist) or a resident of the Borderlands (a criminal, a normal person trying to survive, etc.). We (Omnia and I) will only take
two or three applicants.

We’d prefer if the bionic ability had something to do with something the brain controls.
Here’s a basic example.
Enhanced Physical Abilities
- Super Strength
- Super Speed
or
Enhanced Intelligence
- Psychokinesis
- Eidetic Memory
The list goes on.
If you’re planning on applying, you can reserve an ability until the OOC is up. Feel free to message Omnia or me if you have any questions.
