The planet Xeriage, home to many peoples, animals, plants, powers. The planet which is now being used as the grounds of a massive experiment. People from all universes, all time lines, all worlds, are being harvested with the start of what is simply called 'The Experiment'. They are stuck on Xeriage while scientists study them- how they act in the new area, how they plan on surviving in this setting(which is like modern industrial Earth), how they interact with both one another and others. Though they are all very different, if nothing else, they have one thing in common. One primary objective: Get home by any means possible. CHARACTER SKELETON: Name:
Age:

Universe/Timeline/Etc:
Bio: You can have several characters. What I mean by 'Universe' is like... well, I'll show you with mine. Approved CharacterName: Cecilio di Adessi Age: 16 Appearance:  -Then  -Now Universe/Timeline/Etc: Steampunk. Bio: Cecilio, the second of two sons of a wealthy clockmaker and his beautiful young wife, was born blind. His father commissioned several other engineers at the time to create a way for his son to see. The way they'd eventually come up with were special goggles, which granted him sight by the time he was ten years old. He and his brother both learned their father's trade, and when he passed on, the two took on the business together alone. The two made their own wealth before Cecilio was taken from their little town to Xeriage. There, he was completely changed before being set into 'normal life'. His blindness was fixed, his hair and inner pigments were dyed black, he was given a whole new identity. Now he's attempting to figure his way around the little area that they're all at, and make friends while trying to formulate a carefully-thought-out plan. |

Well why the hell not? I'll use Ratio (since he's been pretty much nuked from the other one unless Corte comes back =P)
Name: Horatio (Ratio) Vartle
Age: 27
Appearance: Ratio is rather tall (standing up straight about 6'1'') and lean enough to be considered rather skeletal. He's got pale, papery skin that looks as if it had been stretched over his bones and dark, wiry hair that falls about to his waist. His face is gaunt and sunken and his eyes are a pale grey color. He rarely stands up straight, but in spite of all this he has a fairly imposing look to him.
Universe/Timeline/Etc: Medieval fantasy
Bio: Ratio (once Horatio Pendragon Vartle III) was born to a very well off family in the town of Torr. His parents, Horatio Pendragon Vartle II and Rosemary Tourmaline Vartle were two nobles of the robe who bought their way into close quarters with the king and were in very high standing. However Ratio was born epileptic, something his parents had never seen before. His father thinking his son had been possessed, locked himself away to try and find a cure, and when his wife, after years of little contact, was unfaithful, he assumed that she'd been possessed as well and beat her to death before taking his own life.
Ratio and his sister and sole companion, Sophronia, were then taken in by an old man who taught them how to use magic. However, the group was eventually discovered and Sophronia and the old man were killed. The only people who remained after the attack were Ratio and the old man's adoptive son, Rachen. Rachen cared for Ratio in the next few years and as time passed Ratio began to delve more and more into the practices of magic, perfecting the art tirelessly. He eventually heard of some of the old man's other students beginning to come together and raise alliances to win the crown. Eager to fulfill the goals that the old man had instilled in him, Ratio began to work to form his own militia, the Brotherhood of Black Arts. Currently it is the largest alliance in Matria and Ratio is at its head.
As a result of all of this, Ratio is a very egotistical and self confident person. He is crafty, wiley, and will do what ever he has to to get what he wants, no matter what that may be. On most occasions it is agreed that he cares little for others and mostly just for himself, he shows little to no compassion, and can be stubborn and difficult to work with. However he is still a brilliant mind if not a little bit outlandish, and in spite of his sometimes eccentric sounding ideas, he is rarely wrong about his convictions. This and his skill in magic make him a strong leader in spite of all of his shortcomings.

Are there limits on character origins? (Only human, only from earth, ect.) I'd imagine not. That would kind of defeat the whole multiple universes part. =P We're supposed to have radically different characters. |

I have a hard time putting the character in words but I do want to be a part of this. I'll post it when I have a clear idea.

Actually, can pre-existing characters be used?

Edit: Finally got it! Name: Aya Brea Age: 36 Appearance: Aya is a relatively short woman standing at 5'7'', 116 pounds, she has a small but muscular frame. Her heritage is predominantly white with hints of Japanese facial features, blue eyes, and blond hair. Universe/Timeline/Etc: Sci-fi/Horror, modern day, Parasite Eve Bio: Aya was born in Boston, Massachusetts on November 20, 1972 to Alexander and Mariko Brea, a pair of well established journalists in the Boston community. In 1978 her younger sister Maya was born. At fourteen the Brea family was in a car crash that killed Mariko and Maya. Aya almost died as well but was saved with a organ transplant from Maya. The incident brought her and her father close together as well as changed her attitude to be strong, independent, and caring.
At the same time, one of Maya's kidneys was transplanted into a young girl named Melissa Pearce. Unknown to any of the doctors, Maya Brea's mitochondria were highly evolved and began changing Aya and Melissa's genetic structure.
At the age of 19, Aya attended the University of Massachusetts majoring in criminology. She moved to New York 6 years later became a police detective with the NYPD 17th precinct. Within the first 6 months of working at the precinct, Aya became involved in an incident known as the 'New York Blockade Incident' to the general public. As an officer, she was partnered up with Daniel "Bo" Dollis, a veteran cop, who watched over her like a daughter.
On December 24, 1997, Aya attended an opera performance at Carnegie Hall, which starred Melissa Pearce as the lead. During the performance, Maya's advanced mitochondria, which had lain dormant in Melissa for years, awakened and transformed her into creature who called herself Eve. Eve killed everyone in Carnegie Hall via spontaneous human combustion, except for Aya who was immune to the effect. Aya instead gained Parasite Energy (PE) powers.
During the next six days, Aya fought Eve and the creatures she spawned, known as Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures or NMCs, all across Manhattan, greatly assisted by the incredible powers she started to exhibit. Aya would later discover that she was granted great power due to the fact that she possessed Maya's mitochondria (transferred to her body during the organ transplant), but it was unable to take control of her as it did Melissa because of Aya's evolved cell nuclei. Eventually, Aya engaged Eve in a showdown on Liberty Island, in which Eve was killed.
A few months after Eve's rampage in New York, Aya left the force and joined a newly-formed branch of the FBI known as MIST. The purpose of MIST, based out of Los Angeles, is to hunt down and destroy any remaining Mitochondrial Eve creatures. During her time as a MIST Agent, Aya had always worked alone due to the abnormality of her powers.
In early September of 2000, Aya was following a lead to a tiny town called Dryfield in the Mojave Desert where she met a 29-year-old P.I. from Texas called Kyle Madigan. With Kyle's co-operation, Aya soon discovered a strange facility called Neo-Ark where government scientists were using Eve's DNA to breed a race of Artificial Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures. To control the ANMCs, the Neo-Ark directors brainwashed a young girl named Eve, a clone of Aya. After discovering that Eve, as well as the ANMCs were all made from her, she destroyed the facility and took Eve back to Los Angeles with her.
After the destruction of the Neo-Ark facility, Aya left MIST, any documents containing information regarding the NMCs were disposed of by the US Government, she took the young Eve in, forming a motherly bond with her, and thanks to one of her friends in MIST, Rupert Broderick, pulled some strings and created a profile for Eve saying that she's Aya's daughter, no questions asked. I realize that was sort of long but this is a slimmed down version of the original Bio. |

This sounds fun. Do you mind? Name: Alron Istrün Age: 20 Appearance: Alran is a pale skinned human standing at about 5'10 inches. His brown hair is cut short and windswept. His face is gaunt and his brown eyes have dark circles underneath them. On his chin is a trimmed and pointed goatee. A rectangular golden piercing hangs from his left ear. His outfit consists of a red shirt underneath a leather vest and a pair of black breeches and a belt with two holsters and a few pouches. On his feet are tan leather boots and fingerless leather gauntlets on his hands. Universe/Timeline/Etc: Dungeon Punk/Magitek Bio: Compared to most, Alron doesn't have a very impressing story. His relatives weren't murdered, he was no high noble, his village was not ransacked by trolls, he has no disabilities, and he has no vow of revenge.
Instead, Alron was born in a small farming community. He grew up tending cows and picking turnips, not adventuring and slaying dragons. Though one day, he got bored of his life and left with nothing but a handful of money. This marked his first steps into the world. Alron had only heard of magic in folk tales, but had seen magnificent displays in any and all large communities he visited. Buying low-end equipment, he started his new career in being an adventurer.
Fast forward a few years and now Alron has traded his farmer's clothes and cheap equipment for middle-class clothes, enchanted leather, and three magical weapons. Strapped to his back was a sword with an elemental slot in the guard and two revolvers with elemental slots in the handles.
Alron's adventures had turned him from an ignorant farmer boy to a jaded young man. "The world is only made of gold if you wear tinted optics," he often says. Few things are new to him and he has no qualms about cutting people down, be they man, woman, or child. Several sleepless nights have made him a rather reliable watchman. |
