Now, it's home to a massive population of superhumans - individuals who have a unique ability that would have seemed impossible in the past. But now, it's merely commonplace, these people comprising 1.42% of the entire city's population. No-one really knows how or why these abilities have appeared, but they have certainly shaped Hale in a way no-one could have predicted.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
GLASS (Generally Lax Active Success System) are a private "military" that has been hastily set up as a response to a massive increase in disorder and superhuman crime. Having only existed for a month, they are pretty under-equipped and don't have a lot of experience yet, but they're doing the best they can with what they have. But even within their own ranks, there's plenty of conflict - some of them are entirely anti-superhuman, seeing them as a threat to society, others see them as citizens that merely need to be controlled and kept tabs on.
Either way, they've got their work cut out for them. Multiple superhuman groups have cropped up, including the ARK (Allied Resource Keepers), a massive organisation dealing with illegal marketing and trading, something that has been unstoppable for the local authorities due to their use of high-end abilities. If that wasn't enough, they'll have to deal with independent 'terrorist' groups - people who have nothing better to do than hurt the innocent inhabitants of the city.
They need to take control of this city... but it won't be easy.

So... yeah. For those of you who don't know, this a total reboot of an original RP by

. Don't be discouraged by that, though - this is a totally new RP, with nothing but the basic premise being carried over, so it's new and open for everyone!
This is going to be an open-world thing, but I'll be keeping one central plot-line between GLASS and ARK going, so there should also be at least one thing to get involved in. If you feel like going on wacky misadventures or opening a restaurant, though, that's okay too! I'm fully encouraging people to set up their own factions and such too, to add some flavour to the world, so feel free to make as many characters as you feel you can handle.
Fair warning: although you don't have to engage with it if you don't like, this RP will likely feature death and other such themes. Humour is very much appreciated, though.
That's all I've got. If this gets enough interest, I'll hopefully be opening a character sign-up / IC thread pretty soon. Thanks for reading!
