Open The Arceus Gene: The Return

[Coloursfall]

THE ARCEUS GENE
The Return

it's back​

NOTES: This RP will be rated at least PG due to battle scenes, and other sensitive content. You have been warned.



It is year 4000, and mankind has undergone serious advances in technology. The large number of cities in the past has dwindled, leaving only six massive hubs of human life, in six of the worlds most powerful countries at the time. The cities moved underground, giving them more room to expand and develop. Technology has created incredible Artificial Intelligence, creating six supercomputers, one a city, that runs the entire hub, controlling the lives of the inhabitants. Each computer is located in the centre of its city, acting as Mayor, Judge, Jury, and Executioner. If the computer is displeased by something, it will do its best to correct it however it sees fit.

But these advances came at a price; humans have stopped training Pokemon, and have started to use them more like animals than partners. The Pokemon without trainers wander the world above, reining over the world humans have abandoned. The Pokemon have become feral, destroying any human they define as 'hostile'.

Another of the new technologies developed was the creation of powerful half-human, half-Pokemon warriors, born in lab test tubes to protect the Supercomputers. The Beastbloods, as they are called, are powerful fighters with acute senses and a taste for battle. They are born in the lab, but raised by specially chosen families under close watch.

Now, in the early months of the year 4000, the scientists of the mighty German city of Stadt, under the command of their Supercomputer, Kleine Schwester, have started a monumental project: The Arceus Gene. They artificially inseminated a beautiful young woman with a sperm containing the genetic materials of The Creator, Arceus, which they discovered in a ancient ruin above the Mountain of Coronet, in the form of a single, shimmering scale. The woman, known only as Florina, was to be sent to the more heavily guarded city of Toshio, Japan, escorted by Beastbloods and a few humans.

You are one of these escorts, the best of your trade, assigned to ensure the safe arrival of Seed of Arceus and his mother.

Me:

Name: Cecilia Alarik
Age: 20
Gender: Female

Beastblood?: Yes
If so, What Pokemon: Kricketune

Appearance: Cecilia is a small girl, and rather thin and frail looking. Her arms are oddly long for a human, and seem to be double-jointed. She can extent twin two-and-a-half foot long blades from her wrists, over her hands, which are very light and strong. She can wield these blades with a deadly skill. Her hair is black, and curls in bangs in front of her face (much like the 'mustache' on a normal Kricketune), and is long in the back, falling to her waist and normally kept in two flowing ponytails. Her skin has a very slight red tinge to it, and is smooth and slightly hard to the touch. She wears a tight jacket that is patterned like the pattern on a Kricketune's belly, it's red with three black ovals, with a yellow zipper going down to the middle oval. She also wears yellow bike shorts.

History: Cecilia is a dancer, and was trained in that art ever since childhood. Her adoptive family nurtured her as a small child, teaching her the arts of dance, painting, and music. They even hired a special teacher to instruct the girl in Capoeira - Dance battling. She is now very skilled in this technique, combining it with the powerful blows inherited from her Pokemon DNA. She was always a good student in school, getting straight A's. Despite her intelligence and physical charm, normal people outside her own family shunned her, and she became shy and withdrawn for a time. After she turned 19, however, she became more outgoing as she entered a special University of sorts specially for Beastbloods.

Personality: Relatively outgoing, Cecilia is alright at making friends, and is a social butterfly of sorts. Music makes her extremely happy and upbeat, and she can barely keep still when there is music playing. She tends to overlook it when someone treats her badly, preferring to push it aside as 'they're just teasing' or similar. In battle she gets slightly more serious, but will taunt and sing to her foe in a mocking way.

Special Skills: Capoeira, musical skill, artistic

Other: She's from Metropolis.

 

[Philly]

Name: Dr. Ruby Lehrer

Age: 29

Gender: Male

Beastblood? (y/n): Yes

If so, What Pokemon: Blaziken

Appearance: Mostly like a normal Blaziken, but with no antennae, 5 fingers, and shorter hair.

History: He was born and soon after injected with Blaziken genes. He learned expert control over his powers. He got a Ph.D, even with his Blaziken-ness. He was then selected as one of the escorts for the Holder of the Arceus Gene.

Personality: Can it be PO?

Special Skills: Fighting Strategy.

Other: Do the Beastbloods have the power to switch to Human and Pokemon, or are they just a combo?

 

[Coloursfall]

No, it can't be PO. Also, no they can't. And make it longer.

 

[allitersonance]

Name: Raven Crawford
Age: 18
Gender: Female

Beastblood?: Yes
If so, What Pokemon: Honchkrow

Appearance: Like a harpy, Raven appears to be more bird than human, and as such is rather small, at slightly over four and a half feet. Most of her body is covered in black feathers, except for her featherless face and the fluffy white feathers on her chest. Her powerful legs are more birdlike than human; the foot itself is longer than her greatly shortened leg, and is covered in black scales. At the end of her feet, four toes ending in sharp talons with a powerful. Her body is closer to the shape of a human's than a bird's, though her head is mostly unchanged except for the honchkrow hat that takes the place of hair.

Her wings come from her shoulders, and are supported by powerful muscles. Each wing is much longer than she is tall, and as such is usually pulled tightly against her body when not in flight. She has weak arms in front of her wings, looking very much like a human's.

here, have a sorta-reference picture or two

History: Evidently some cruel, sadistic person found it amusing to give Raven the name she has. This was the only act of cruelty she will really remember, though, since it's the only one she can't really escape from. In any case, she was sent to the Crawford family in Metropolis and lived there for most of her life.

Ever since she was young, she had many friends - well, maybe "friends" isn't the right term, as that implies equality while she was their leader. Perhaps "gang" would be more correct. At any rate, they called themselves - or rather, she called them - the Crowbloods, and they did what she wanted because she wanted it to happen. Every Crowblood had a murkrow-style hat and wore black, and only they could wear the hats without facing her wrath.

She might not have been the best in academics but she didn't care, since she was mainly learning to fight. She was trained in using aerial tactics and her moves, yes, but also a few human weapons like the firearms she could use. She tried a few blades, too, but melee weapons weren't the best for her, as it turned out - she wasn't agile enough with her arms for that.

When she was given the "choice" to escort the Seed of Arceus to safety, she jumped at the chance, and would have done so even if it was truly a choice.

Personality: Raven likes to fight, like many beastbloods; truly, that is what she lives for, and one of the few things she is motivated to actually do. She doesn't like being hit, though, since she can't take hits too well; she'd rather stay out of reach and attack from afar. She likes to surround herself with people, but thinks herself as superior to them - either they should be a subordinate or an enemy (and she's of course better than her enemies). She also loves flying just as much as fighting, and will often volunteer to do things if it means that she gets to fly.

Special Skills: Flight, powerful aerial attacks especially with feet, ability to use handguns

 

[Coloursfall]

:D I like. In!

 

[Darksong]

Name: Amanda S. Heilin

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Beastblood? (y/n): Yes

If so, What Pokemon: Raichu

Appearance: Amanda is short, only about four feet ten inches tall, with an average build otherwise. Her hair is long and brown, straight all the way. Protruding from her head are two brown Raichu ears. Amanda's eyes are light brown. She has a Raichu's cheek spots on her face. She wears a plain yellow shirt with short sleeves, but she doesn't seem to mind when she gets cold. She has blue jeans and white running shoes, and also a long tail ending in a thunderbolt pattern. On her back, she has a Raichu's stripes also, but they are covered by her shirt.

History: She was born in a slightly colder-than-average climate, and so is accustomed to it. Her father died when she was only two, although she can't remember exactly how very much, so she only lived with her mother for much of her life. Amanda doesn't have much memory of her father, and occasionally wishes she had gotten to know him better.

Personality: Amanda is mostly serious, and is irritatingly blunt. She doesn't like delays and always just wants to get straight down to business. Inside, she cares about others, but just doesn't often show it. She tends to be forgetful. Amanda is rather defensive, and when provoked, also very protective of her friends. When there are exciting things happening, she's most loyal, but might annoy others with her seriousness.

Special Skills: She's rather experienced at long-range special attacks associated with electricity, and enjoys cooking also. The ability to win arguments often might also come to mind when one thinks of talents.

Other: Nothing but these five words!

 

[Mad MOAI]

Name: Jerome

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Beastblood? (y/n): Yes

If so, What Pokemon: Kadabra

Appearance: Jerome's hair is long and white, straight, not tied up in anything and waist-length. His eyes are a deep black, with no emotion shown in them although he does feel some. He wears blue jeans that are rather tattered and faded around the knees. However, they have a rather large hole in the back; from the base of his spine extends a gigantic yellow tail with a brown ring pattern about halfway down. His upper torso is the same as Kadabra's. His lower torso is rather small, giving his tail an even larger look than it already has. His ears are long and pointed, and his feet have three toes--two in the front and one extending from the heel--each with a claw on them. He also has two fingers and a thumb on each hand, also with claws. He wields a spoon in his right hand, and has a red star on his forehead and a "W" mark in the middle of his lower torso which glow when he uses psychic power. His shirt is thin and white, letting his tunic-like chest and shoulders show through a bit. His cheeks are a bit pointed around the sides. His legs and arms are rather thin for someone his height.

History: When Jerome was combined with Kadabra, the experiment lasted a bit longer than usual; the scientist got carried away and gave him a few more Kadabra features than he would like. However, he lived with it, and he's rather satisfactory to this day.

Personality: Jerome has average intellect, although his fusion would make it seem different. He's quiet and focused, but gets angry easily, especially if someone breaks his concentration. He prefers stealthy and unnoticeable attacks to loud, damaging ones, and often conflicts with the enemy's mind as an assault. He likes it when people look up to him, but dislikes the teasing of his Pokemonacy. He likes meeting new people, but can often be insecure around them. When frightened, he quickly sends a psychic jolt to the enemy's mind and flees.

Special Skills: He can levitate and use telekinesis.

Other: Hi. This is epic ;D

 

[Coloursfall]

both Accepted, but fyi, the genetics are combined with them before birth - hence the test tube thing.

 

[Dragon]

Oh oh I join I join
Name: Vairocina (Vai)
Age: 19...
Gender: Female

Beastblood? (y/n): Hell yeah!
If so, What Pokemon:

Appearance: Vai is around 5'11", average for a Salamence. She has red wings coming out of her shoulder blades, which are somewhat feathery. Stretched out to their fullest, they are her height and a half. Vai has a tail, claw-like fingers and toes, but is still bipedal. Her ears are split into three points, and her skin has a slightly blue tinge. Vai usually wears a black jacket over a dark red t-shirt, and baggy dark brown pants. Her fingers don't have fingernails, but the skin is shaped like a claw.

She wears her dark brown hair loose, or up in a ponytail. Vai is light-weighted, and her bones are hollow, like a bird's. On each hip she wears a sheath for her daggers, which both have black hilts and handles, and gold or silver coloured blades.

History: Vai was born a test-tube baby, and grew up in a 'closely watched' family, nothing too special or different.

Personality: Vai is impatient, and somewhat laid-back. She doesn't take things too seriously, but knows her place. She laughs easily, and is relatively friendly to nearly everyone. Vai loves to fly, and feels confined in tight places. She prefers physical attacks to special ones, but will use special ones if she has to.

Special Skills: Vai can fight, fly, and... is agile?

Other: Stuff goes here~

 

[Storm Earth and Fire]

Name: Fritz Rothstein

Age: 23

Gender: Male

Beastblood?: no

Appearance: A tall young man, at around 6' 3". His eyes are blue and his brown hair is kept fairly short. He has an average build. He wears a brown-gray greatcoat, over a white long-sleeved shirt, and black pants. His greatcoat conceals a shoulder holster, usually with an unloaded pistol inside.

History: A resident of Stadt, Fritz grew up in a middle-class family with an important responsibility, raising a Beastblood. He got along well enough with his adopted sibling, but at times, found excuses to be away from home, to be away from the beastblood's terrible powers. He came to terms with it growing up, for the most part. He wanted to be a cook, and studied for it from a young age, learning from his parents.

However, one day, during a break at work, he received an e-mail directive. He was to help escort the Seed of Arceus and his mother. Realizing that the supercomputers made no mistakes, he resignedly reported in. He got about a month to be prepared, instructed in what to do, re-educated about beastbloods, and what to do. He was sent to a beastblood university for 4 days to help adjust him, and trained in handgun usage. Another thing was a crash course in the languages figured necessary.

Personality: Ordinarily friendly and social, and still is on the outside, his being around this many beastbloods, have made him apologetic, and he isn't willing to get on a beastblood's bad side, and is often acquiescent.

Fritz often distances himself from the beastbloods, and a lot goes through his mind, sometimes trying to shape up, but still being unable to interact with them as normal people.

One of the last things he was told was to shoot to kill anyone who tried to betray or leave the group. However, he can't bring himself to kill someone else.

Special Skills: cooking

Other: See Claudia Rothstein.

 

[Blastoise Fortooate]

Name: Mark Cochrane

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Beastblood? (y/n): YES

If so, What Pokemon: Nidorino

Appearance: With longish, brown hair and blue eyes, Mark is of average height and weight. His skin is purplish and has darker patches distributed throughout. A large horn sprouts from the center of Mark's forehead, not far from his large and pointed ears. Mark's mouth is ringed with sharp teeth, his two large canines sticking out from his jaw even when he closes his mouth. His feet, almost always bear except for sandals, have long ivory claws, similar to the ones sticking out from his fingers.

History: Mark, like all Beastbloods, was harvested from a test tube. He was placed in a foster family, the Divinsons, who, while never cruel to Mark, were nonetheless indifferent about his interests. Mark was a loner during his education, maybe because of his shyness, but mostly due to the fact that he had a one-on-one tutor. He was glad, if a bit scared, of going on this mission, and he went anyway.

Personality: Quiet around new or older people, Mar is generally a fun person friends. He hates being asked to do too many things at once, which generally would cause him to spaz out and run from the immediate area. He likes Pokemon a lot, and enjoys watching them.

Special Skills: Mark, being part-Poison Pokemon, can smell almost any poison, venom, or anything similar. He also knows about antidotes to these poisons, and thus has a great knowledge of herbs, spices, etc.

Other: I like this character.

 

[Elfin]

Name: Claudia Rothstein (Being the Beastblood raised by Fritz's family if it's okay, she'd have the same last name..?)

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Beastblood? (y/n): Yes
If so, What Pokemon: Espeon

Appearance: About 4'11. When people look at Claudia for the first time, they often stared, trying to decide if she's strangely beautiful, or a freak. Her face is longer than normal and she almost has a snout like a dog, with tufts of fur on the sides of her head. She has almond-shaped dark purple eyes with white pupils, and a circular red gem on her forehead. She has very short light purple fur everywhere, and very thin, slightly darker colored hair usually in a short french braid. She has cat ears a bit higher up on her head than a human's, and an Espeon tail. Her arms and legs are a bit shorter and longer (respectively) than normal, which only adds to her overall strange appearance. She usually walks on her hands and feet and can run faster that way, though she does move around normally around humans most of the time. Her hands and feet are basically just paws, (she has retractable claws on all four) which makes it hard for her to write neatly. She always dresses pretty casually. Normally, she wears a plain white dress with black leggings, or sweatpants and a tee-shirt. Normally, Claudia has cat whiskers on her face, but she always cuts them off out of embarrassment so nobody every actually sees them. She has a silver necklace that she wears 24/7 than looks like a Butterfree. Actually, the wings come off, and the body in a key. Her left shoe of her favorite sneakers (which she also wears all the time) has a secret compartment in the sole. Unlocked, there's a switchblade and a tiny wristwatch inside. In theory, the knife is for protection since she's not the best fighter without any weapons, but it wouldn't help much in a fight as she'd have to take off the shoe and necklace to retrieve it.

History: Claudia, like all Beastbloods, was created in a test tube. She tried to get along with Fritz, but she stopped caring after a while and tried making friends at school. This worked about as well as if she'd run naked through the street screaming "I'm Arceus' sister Jessica!", so she soon gave up that as well. After a while, she started drawing herself as a normal human and different people, and basically became apathetic about being social in general. She has always been very intelligent and did very well in school. While being much stronger than a normal human, she not a very strong fighter compared to other Beastbloods, though her healing abilities make up for that a lot. She was rather surprised at being chosen for the escort mission, but was still happy to help.

Personality: Claudia is very intelligent and loves riddles. She's not narcissistic exactly, but thinks she's smarter than most people, human or otherwise. She is very proud and dignified, and doesn't like admitting she needs help with anything. Despite that, she's eager to help other people with problems or healing them. She knows a lot about human nature, and how and why people act the way they do. She talks to herself pretty often, and would never admit this even if someone had a gun to her head, but she still sort of has imaginary friends and has "conversations" when she's really bored. She's very social, but always seems lonely in a way, often found standing by herself and singing softly. She's rather paranoid and a bit pessimistic.

Special Skills: She has slightly weak telekinetic powers and very very limited telepathy. Most importantly, she has the ability to psychically heal almost any type of injury. While this doesn't count as a special skill exactly, she's very good at singing.

Other: Hope you (link008) don't have to edit your form too much. ^^;

 

[Storm Earth and Fire]

Welcome to the family (Assuming we're actually accepted). ^_^

 

[Blazie]

Name: Sheena Azure

Age: 20

Gender: Female

Beastblood? (y/n): Yep

If so, What Pokemon: Lucario

Appearance: Sheena looks mostly human-like, as Lucario has more of a humanoid figure. Her skin has a slight blue tinge, but it's not noticeable unless you're expecting it. Her ears are longer than normal, end in a point, and are a darker blue than the rest of her body. Below her knees, her skin colouring fades into a dark black, and her feet have three toes, larger than a human's. Her eyes are red, and her hair is a deep marine blue. Her teeth are sharpened, almost like fangs. Sheena's most prominent features are the small but sharp spikes which come out of the backs of her hands, and the center of her chest. Sheena has had to cut circular holes in the shirts that she wears to account for her chest spike, and she gave up wearing gloves long ago. The thing that she is most grateful for is the fact that she does not have a Lucario tail, as such would provoke teasing and ridiculing, and present many inconveniences. She usually wears a light yellowish-orange zip-up hoodie, although she has had to get it modified to leave a hole for her chest spike, but in a battle she will shed this to reveal a tight-fitting grey tank top. Her dark cotton pants reach past her knees, and her shoes are simple black running shoes.

History: Sheena was raised in a test tube, and raised in a careful and protective family in Ciudad, like a normal beastblood. She got straight A's in school, and she was also quite athletic. That was about all that she was good at, though. She was never any good at social situations, and that was what influenced her to spend her time developing her battling skills and aura powers, rather than hanging out with her only friend. She loves to sing, but will only do so when she thinks that nobody is listening. After getting out of school, she decided to take a few years off before university, and has made a living by writing short fiction stories in the seclusion of her home. When she was asked to come as an escort to the seed of Arceus and its mother, she did so grudgingly, as she knew that she would have to spend all of her time in the presence of the other escorts, but she knew that she would be an aid with her battling skills. She has since then firmly decided that she needs to open up more to people, and that this is her chance to begin doing so.

Personality: Sheena, as mentioned above, was always quite shy, but when you get through to her, she opens up and is really very cheerful. She has boundless energy when she is happy, and although she isn't good with finding the right words to cheer you up, her energy and enthusiasm may. When she isn't in a good mood, she can be sarcastic and witty, but does her best to be nice to the people around her. She loves music, and music will cheer her up more than anything.

Special Skills: Fighting, singing. Her Lucario genes enable her to sense the presence of others through their aura.

Other: Epic :D I like this, it's creative, and cool, and interesting, and...-goes on forever-

EDIT: lol, I've edited this like five times in the last day. I'm going to stop now, and if I think of anything else to add, it'll just probably pop up in the actual rp.

 

[Mewtwo]

Name: Mysti

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Beastblood? (y/n): Y

If so, What Pokemon: Shiny Umbreon

Appearance: Jet-black hair with streaks of blue. Umbreon ears. Piercing yellow eyes, and dark black fur all over the
body. A blue circle on forehead. Clothes are the same black as the fur. Shirt has blue circles on top of the sleeves, and the
pants have them on the top of the legholes. Umbreon tail. Her hands and feet are paws. She can be quadrupedal if she
wants.

History: She has vague memories of her Shiny Umbreon before it was implanted in her, like how to use moves and
how to feel emotions. She has been very loyal to the scientists.

Personality: Very... hyper. Calm when needed, and can be very random. Cries easily.

Special Skills: Makes friends very easily. Also can use fake tears to lure the foe then strike very hard.

Other: If she can't be shiny, all blue is yellow.

 

[Blazie]

Mewtwo, sorry to be nitpicking, but... the Shiny Umbreon genes would have been implanted before birth. Note that they're born in test tubes. Hopefully that won't change your history too much. :D

 

[Coloursfall]

Everyone but link008, Evoli, and Mewtwo: Accepted

link008 & Evoli: everything else is fine, but give the rules a look-over again.

Mewtwo: BlazeAura is right, also, rule-read again please.

 

[Mewtwo]

Has been edited. Better?

 

[Blazie]

Yay! ^^ This should be fun. Thanks!

 

[Storm Earth and Fire]

link008 & Evoli: everything else is fine, but give the rules a look-over again.

All done with that.
