Realistic or Modern The Lost Children- (a superhuman Lab rat Rp.)

WeaselThor

The Thundering Mustelid
The year is 2021 and the world seems to continue on unchanged. Yet the government sanctions cruel scientists to preform experiments on people in an effort to take a step beyond being a nuclear superpower. The first ten years of the program they found that adults were more likely to reject the genetic augmentations. However children under the age of 16 bonded better with the processes. The younger the better. It was then that runaway children stopped being found. Infants disappeared from hospitals, and their mothers were silenced. Though the public would never know, this was all a part of project Seraphim. Yet the government made a fatal mistake when they took the wrong kid.

Delta force Ranger James Stryker was away on tour when his daughter was born. Yet complications apparently took the live of his Wife and daughter. Being as paranoid a man as he was he refused to let it be and inadvertently stumbled onto the Seraphim projects archives. After nearly a year of planning and searching he found the first facility. Sure it was heavily guarded, but he was delta force, the best of the best. Factored in with a fathers rage and the element of surprise the facility was caught unaware. So was stryker though. In this facility he found Six children none of whom were his daughter. But he owed it to these kids to at least see them into adulthood. It was then that he decided that the governments secrets and mistakes could be the perfect weapon to strike them with. As such he has begun training these kids to one day overtake the other facilities and gather the subjects from them as well. All with the purpose of recovering all the kids he can and finding those responsible for the project and eliminating them. But can this hope ever succeed?

(Hey guys this is superhuman rp that seems at first glance to be your typical lab rat science experiment story. But assure you it is not that. Think of this as the origen story of an entire comic book world. If we do this well then we can make it a series with various arcs and chapters. While i do have a plot in mind your decisions will heavily influence the direction of the story. For now i am accepting 6 characters all of whom are genetically modified humans. The age range is 8-24 yrs.
Powers cannot be magical, metaphysical, or transdimensional in nature. So basically this is how it will work. Tell me what power you want but don't specify its parameters. I will do some calculations to figure out how to scientifically grant the power and what its limitations will be.
(Example- you claim super strength. I will apply the science as to how it was achieved and what the maximum lift capacity is.)​

By the way if it wasn't apparent i will be playing the role of James stryker.
Once we have all 6 Of the Lost Children Filled we can begin.
 
I'd be interested. I was wondering if super speed would fit into any of the powers you listed? If not, would you mind if we could have some examples of powers that would fit?
 
I'd like to play an 8 year old girl... would the power to make fire from her hands be able to work somehow?
That is doable. It took several dozen excruciating surgeries but it was a success. Four Artificial Organs about the size of a childs kidney were attached to the bottom of her lungs. Two organs condensed oxygen into a liquid state by adding enzymes that lower the freezing point of the gas this organ is recharged by simply breathing. The other two organs use air from the lungs and chemicals from her food and turns it into a mix of methane and phosphorous. Tubes were implanted into her arms which can draw from both chemical pools to unleash short bursts of 2200°f flames. These flames can instantly kill a normal man and are enough to melt tank armor after 4 seconds.

Super speed is achievable but it would be a very long and arduous procedure. This means you'd have to be on the higher end of the age range.

But the process is achieved by 4 Dangerous and extensive implants. The first was by far the most painful. Every nerve ending in the body was replaced with photoreceptors meaning they beam signals to each other at lightspeed. This both puts your characters reflexes well above 100 times a normal human rate, and dulls pain to the point that he/she wouldn't even feel a punch that broke his/her jaw.

The next is a full skeleton coating made of a Nano-laddered polymer that makes the bones able to withstand the tremendous forces associated with the speeds he/she will be moving at.

Third is the Metabolism stabilizing artificial organ which stores calories to fuel the characters bursts of super speed. It also speeds digestion to the point the he/she could out eat any competitive eater.

The final implant is the replacing of the muscles with monofiliment "spidersilk" fibers which are much stronger than even steel. Attatched to servoes which allow for the high speed movement. This sets his/her top speed at 1534.54mph or mach 2.
 
I'm interested in playing as a 17 year old girl that can turn into a tiger, cause tigers are cool. Would that work?
This is a tough one but i think i have got it. Through her entire life she was receiving gene therapy and mental training to hone her instincts. Overall this was a mild process it caused no more pain than the shot and its side effects were aggression and a strange change in metabolism which removed plants from her diet.

What the gene therapy was doing was implanting two Dormant nuclei in each cell in her whole body. The dormant nuclei could be activated when certain circumstances were met (killer instincts set in hence the training) the result would awaken the both dormant nuclei and make her human Nuclei go dormant. The first Added nuclei is the one that turns her cells into that of a tiger. The second is one that causes the cells to restructure themselves granting her the actual form of the tiger. The second nuclei also boasts an impressive healing factor that triggers as the transformation happens. This allows the body to survive the horrific process and makes it so that any wound sustained will heal when the transformation is initiated. So for example if someone blew her brains out in her human form she will die because its her natural form. However if her brains are blown out in tiger form she will revert to human form and be fully healed. That said she can turn from human to tiger and heal any nonlethal wounds.

That's so freaking cool
 
Alright, I might have some sort of idea? It's something I've used before in an rp outside of here and it worked fairly well.

It was theablilty to manipulate forms of technology, if I remember right. Sort of like a human remote controller.. Not sure how well it'd work, if that wouldn't be okay I can think of something else!

I dont think that will work For several reasons.

Who in their right mind would make someone who could manipulate technology in a lab filled with technology. Also it would grant control over several other characters implants seeing as how all are made with technology. Not to mention it means the bad guys have no way to fight that character at all seeing as how technology is the main advantage they have.

Because of this it is not an acceptable power.
 
Ok theoretically, a character who can either a. bite through almost any substance, or b. digest any substance?
Both can be applied to the same person. Ill even throw in a spit up ability. Is that your final choice? I dont wanna have to drop to many sciency bricks so im only gonna cover final choices.

That's fine! I wasn't sure how well it'd work out, I'll see if there's something else. Thanks! <3

that's the most scientifically functional thing i can think of. either that or a half-lizard person, but being able to just eat glass and stuff sounds more fun.

I will be taking some liberties with how science works so feel free to aim for a tricky one if you'd like. I do have the science for this one though.
 
Maybe amplified senses? Better hearing/sight/smell/taste than most people have. Not really sure, it sounds a bit lame haa but it's what I'm coming up with.

Ooooo go with that one i have lot of material for that and it could add a great detection factor to our team.
 
Not decided just yet, but would something like hemokinesis be applicable here? I'm guessing it would be restricted to the users blood if so.
Also, are you planning this to be long term? I only really get involved in roleplays that plan to go for long enough to actually resolve some plot :P Am interested in the theme though.
 
Ok so the superhuman senses are achieved in three separate ways that all work together to make the most Sensory powerful being on earth.

First came the computer implant. It was a massive computer designed to replace the memory center of the brain. It allows for theoretically infinite storage capacity by building artificial braincells to hold a super computers worth of information each. Which is needed for the next series of implants.

Phase 2 was the replacing of the sensory sectors of the brain. Set with a thought activated "Power wheel" this allows the subject to adjust how much brain power is directed to each sense. Which already amplified the senses to a high degree. (The subject could sacrifice vision, taste, touch, and smell to amplify their hearing to the point that they could hear a heart beat from 1000 yards away through stone walls.) it also allows the subject to filter out the excess input so they only hear, see ,smell ,taste , or feel what they want to.

The final piece was the surgeries.

The eyes were removed and replaced with the most advanced optics imaginable. It allows the subject to amplify the range of vision, the zoom, and light Levels. (Can see the whites of a mans eyes from 7 miles away in any level of light, Can see in absolute darkness, and can see microscopic objects. Even objects in space while on the ground.)

Eardrums were replaced with highly advanced vibrational detectors allowing the subject to hear conversations from up to 7 miles away, detect sounds that humans and even animals cannot. And even echolocate.

Olfactory nerves were switched out for molecular detectors/filter which can identify chemicals in the air less than 1 part per billion. They can smell otherwise odorless chemicals and even filter out harmful toxins. Subject displays an immunity to any aerosolized chemicals and toxins so long as they breath through their nose. These same detectors are applied to the mouth allowing the subject to detect any taste or flavor but he filters are not present so the subject is vulnerable to ingested toxins.

The skin is modified with an external layer of artificial nerves that allow them to detect the faintest disturbances in the magnetic fields and atmospheric pressure around them. The subject claims to be able to feel doors open all throughout the facility. And even when confined to a sensory deprivation chamber seems aware of the presence and motion that happens within 30ft of it. Even while asleep the subject displays amazing situational awareness.
