Default Avatars: Foundations. ((Sequel Thread.))

This world isn't different from yours - not much different, anyway. People kill people with guns, politicians wear suits and ramble on about change. The skys are filled with pollution and crime continues to ravage the streets of the grey, new york city.

Exept humanity has a new weapon in this pointless conflict, their avatar. Each human has an avatar that stands by their sides. It represents them - and their powers. Let's say someone has an avatar of that of a hawk - this avatar will give them unparraleled insight, dexterity and eyes sharper than most humans that would point out things most couldn't.

Humans have a mental link with their avatars, and their avatars may speak to others as if they were human themselves. Whilst the strength they bring is large - if an avatar is killed, the human either dies, or becomes a geist. Geist have no emotions, and will serve under whoever took the Avatar away. As if in a vain attempt to grasp it back.

Unfortunateley, the goverment has been controlling this - eventually grasping it's hand snug around the populace. A hand of dark opression.

They have created a legion of giests. No-one knew this until now, no-one apart from the rebel group. Who formed upon finding this out, a group of few, selected warriors plucked by their life by the hands of fate.

As the factions will allign, will the rebels be able to face off against the threat?

~The Story So Far~....

Orson and the founding members of the rebellion gathered for a meeting at the small, desolate and rather unimpressive makeshift base that Orson had set up. He explained to each and every one of them what they were going to do.

They would ambush a convoy, filled with captured innocents that the goverment were moving to their giest-making factories. Forcing them to bend itno their will, taking their Avatars away, and turning them into slaves. Without imagination, without freedom, without emotions, and without fear.

The perfect soldier.

Now Orson stands before the frieghtened and confused souls he had rescued, each having their home - their families, torn from them.

The rebellion starts now.

(( Right! Any who were from the old thread need to just post their old character sheets, and will be with the group who amushed the convoy. New arrivals to the series of threads will be those that Orson and Company resqued from the Convoy. ))

My sheet:

Name: Orson Karvi

Description:He appears a tall, striking figure. His hair is brown, tied to the back in a loose, unkempt ponytail. He tends to wear a loose, brown shirt with a leather overjacket. He allso wears dirty, torn jeans with a belt holding them up. His face is gaunt, yet strong and handsome. And stubble matts his chin. His eyes are coloured in an odd way, one blue, one gold.

Personality: He tends to be quiet and decisive. Never really giving too much about himself away.

Avatar's Name: Nari

Avatar's Description: Nari is a white-furred tiger, slightly larger than most - she stands at an impressive four feet tall and eight feet long. Her black markings very distinctive, she has oddly coloured eyes, one blue, and one gold.



Avatar's Personality:Nari is playfull and fun-loving. She tends to have a cheery mannerism about things, but can be reckless and angry when annoyed. To her enemies, she is a deadly adversary. To her friends, she is a faithfull and loyal companion.

History of the Human and it's Avatar: Orson and Nari were orphaned - their mother had passed from cancer, and his father had left home and never came back. After growing old enough, Orson went onto the streets. Upon chance, he found out what the goverment were doing when one of the convoys of captured humans and avatars were going to a factory where the giests were being produced.

He was captured, and forced under a series of rigorous scientific tests and procedures. An attempt at turning him into a super soldier, but it was mereley brought on by emotions - they couldn't control him, and he eventually broke out of the facility. Though he keeps this a secret, and hasn't told anyone apart from Nari, his avatar.

And from that day forth, he began to recruit members into the rebellion. Traning them, training himself - to use their avatars and themselves to their full potential.

Abilities that the Avatar brings about: Due to Nari's thick, nearly impenatrable hide, Orson is very tough. Bullets are stopped short of vital organs if aimed well, and knive-wielders have a hard time even denting him. Nari is allso very athletic, and can survive most falls. This allso passes onto Orson, being able to perform supernatural feats of agility and allso being able to survive falls that would snap the legs of most humans.

Allso, he has a very keen sence of smell, and is able to track down scents - and smell them approaching, his reflexes are allso keen, and he is sometimes able to dodge bullets where most humans would've died before they even had a chance to think.

Weapons the human may carry: Orson tends to carry two, silver pistols inside his jacket, and a knife attached to a stap on his leg - underneath his trousers.

Age of Both: 24
