The World's Final Moments
The Plot
Mankind has never even thought that the existence of Daemons were a reality. However that sort of mindset was rewired when the Hell Gate came into existence and brought the interdimensional creatures onto this realm of reality. The Daemon horde had appeared as mere heat signatures on the dark side of the moon. To the astronauts that were on the Neo II space station this seemed strange and rather off-putting to know that there was life on the moon. Further digging suggested that the Daemon horde was kept a secret from the populace of Earth to prevent mass panic, but even then that proved to be futile. Meteors appeared on the space station's radar, and strangely these meteors came from the dark side of the moon. Using the space station as a means of warning the command center down on Earth, astronauts and other workers worked furiously to send a message down to Earth. However in the process of doing so some of the Daemonic meteors struck the space station causing it spin out of orbit and make head way down to surface of the planet.
On the surface emergencies were dispatched all throughout the world as Neo II came crashing down onto American soil. However the space station only landed within the desert regions of the country, but the explosion, along with the accompaniment of individual meteorites that survived the entry, was a sight to behold. The devastation didn’t end there though. Many nations, all across the planet, were struck by city block wide meteorites that desolated several major cities throughout the planet. As the meteorites continued to rain down upon the planet, creatures started to emerge from the craters that these meteorites were founded upon. These creatures, classified as Daemons, killed anything that breathed. Thusly costing mankind a great deal of pain and suffering. These creatures invaded the planet in the most tremendous and frightening of way possible. The Daemons had the upper hand, rendering the military useless for the military was not powerful enough to kill off the millions of the Daemons that have already set foot on Earth’s soil by then.
With the world now thrown into a one-sided extermination, those who were smart enough to hide from the Daemons are now figuring out that there is a way to defeat these creatures and retake their home. However by doing so these unlikely and reluctant heroes will sacrifice everything they have, blood and all, to save this planet.
Informational Guide
Spoiler: The State of the World
After the arrival of the Daemon species, it is apparent that the world isn’t doing so great. Nearly 97.9% percent of the population has been killed or captured [and used for torture or other forms of torture that benefit them and not mankind]. The world itself has nearly been reduced to a barren wasteland, filled with desolate cities and nearly deforested patches of land. Most of the forests, today, have been plucked from their roots and are replaced with relay towers that allow the Daemons to convey their telepathic commodities to other Daemons that are within distance of the relay tower.
Mankind, in this case, has been pushed to live in underground bunkers due to the fact that the air on the surface has been polluted with sulfuric chemicals that will burn a human’s lungs if they were to inhale such a fume [which will lead to death in a matter of minutes]. These bunkers, in order to sustain the human population, are connected from one long corridor to the next. By doing this the human population can commune without the necessity of having to defend themselves from the constant threat of Daemons. The bunkers themselves have been fitted to equally accommodate to the average life-style of human [for a Daemonic post-apocalyptic world they sure have nice bunkers]. The reason behind this was so that mankind could be able to exist while at the same time hide from the Daemonic presence that stalks the lands above.
On the surface, for that matter, the Daemonic species has excelled at nearly taking the world for its own and have been on a warpath to find these bunkers that hold the rest of the human population. Several Hive Minds have been erected within the last month and Daemons have essentially taken the world as their own.
Spoiler: The Daemon Race
[The Ziggurat]
The Daemon race is the only known supernatural and alien race to have existed on this plane of reality. The Daemons are controlled by what is known as the Ziggurat [A massive creature that towers fifteen stories higher than the Twin Towers]. The Ziggurat then births what are called Hive Minds who individually control their own set of Daemons that do everything in the name of the Ziggurat.
There are three primary Hive Minds and then there are four secondary Hive Minds. Which are listed below:
• Primary Hive Minds
• Hive Mind Alpha
• Hive Mind Beta
• Hive Mind Omega
• Secondary Hive Minds
• Hive Mind Ultra
• Hive Mind Quantum
• Hive Mind Ultima
• Hive Mind Megalith
Each Hive Mind specializes in their own particular set of abilities and powers [each with their strengths and weaknesses]. However as a means of realism, humanity only knows so much about the primary Hive Minds and very little about the secondary Hive Minds. In this case each “army” or “horde” is placed within their designated Hive Mind. The actual appearance of a Hive Mind varies from Hive Mind to Hive Mind and humanity has never seen a Hive Mind [and lived to tell that tale].
An average Daemon, who is known as a Bastard Daemon, is 6’11 and varies in skin tone and color from Daemon to Daemon. Their strength rivals that of Batman, as a means of comparison, and is able to tear humans apart at ease. A Bastard Daemon, no matter what Hive Mind they belong to, is always armored in the means of a knight. To a human, these Daemons are deadly but are categorized as D-Class Daemons.
Daemons, in terms of finding out what Daemon is what, are categorized from D to A [D being a Bastard Demon and A being the Ziggurat]. D-Class Daemons are your typical Bastard Demons who vary in armory and weaponry [meaning which ever Hive Mind they belong to, their armor is acquainted with that Hive Mind or represents that Hive Mind]. C-Class Daemons are much larger and deadly Daemons such as a Behemoth or an Earthshaker. B-Class Daemons are the Hive Minds and the Daemons that guard those Hive Minds [Which are called Protectorates]. A-Class Daemons are the Ziggurat and the Daemons that are attached to it. Humanity, as of now, has only encountered D-Class and C-Class Daemons and has yet to come across any B-Class or A-Class Daemons.
Spoiler: Misc.
Spoiler: Technology
Due to the recent destruction of the planet, most common technology of the twenty-second century has been lost. However some technology, known as Occult Technology [or Occ-Tech for Lingo sake], have been unearthed throughout the world by human traveling parties who dare set foot in the world above. This Occ-Tech has allowed humanity to produce holographic images and automated machines that do our every-will; following Asimov’s Laws of Robotics. Having holographic imagery and automated machines is a huge step forward in this day in age. However man has yet to militarize the plasma and proton laser systems that have been categorized as dangerous Occ-Tech. Ballistic technology is still a major player in today’s technology and is basically the only known military technology capable of going against the Daemons. However man has developed experimental weaponry by reverse-engineering Occ-Tech from a lost Islamic nation. This experimental weaponry [and technology], known as Neo Occ-Tech, has allowed turret base defenses and full camouflage [basically invisibility] suits that are capable of blending to any environment.
Spoiler: Definitions (So Far)
Ziggurat: The leader or mass controller of the Daemon species.
Hive Mind: A secondary leader that controls a horde Daemons.
Horde: An army of Daemons
Occult Technology [Occ-Tech]: Technology that was found amidst the ruble of the old civilization of man.
Neo Occult Technology [Neo Occ-Tech]: Technology that was reverse-engineered by incomprehensible measures and conditions.
Daemon Class System: A scale in which a Daemon is graded, based on deadliness, from D to A.
Spoiler: Rules
1. You must be active in the IC. Failure to do so without the appropriate excuse of absence will result in the termination of your character. You may make another, but any progress that your old character had made will be cut off from that point forward. In the IC the other characters will remember your character, but your character will not be with those characters if your character has been selected to be terminated. You will have a one month posting period between your posts [and I will be keeping track] and failure to post in that time period [without the appropriate excuse of absence] will result in the termination of your character.
2. For the sake of decency, do not speak of Racial, Sexist or Vulgar comments towards others or myself. It’s rude and uncivilized.
3. Arguments are to be kept at a minimum. Failure to meet this demand will result in a warning the first time, termination of your character the second time and banishment from the OOC the third time.
4. Realism is suggested; please keep the Story-Fights to a realistic level. No Over-Powering, Power Playing, or Auto-Hitting/Meta-Gaming Allowed. You’ll suffer consequences [much like the third rule] if this rule is not followed.
5. Respect Others and GMs. Also follow the rules assigned by the Administrators of this site [essentially just follow the RPA rules].
6. I’m not looking for quantity, but I’m looking for quality. You must be at least able to write clearly so that others can understand your posts. [But at least have three to five sentences per post]
7. The GM’s Word Is Law. I am able to change the rules as I see fit, if time comes for that decision.
8. This is an on-going story, with the amount of lore I have planned for this roleplay, so your characters may age and change as the roleplays come and go.
9. I will not guarantee your character will survive. If you wish to kill or be killed tell me and the situation before asking the other player if it is alright to kill that player’s character.
10. Have Fun!
10.5: If you’ve read this far then good for you! You get a sticker. But seriously if you’ve read this far then put this at the bottom of your post: “Earth’s Realm is under attack!”
Spoiler: Plot Pusher
What a Plot Pusher is that basically I’ll set a goal for your characters to achieve and the world is shaped around the actions and decisions your characters make to reach the goal I have set.
The goal for this story-arc is to destroy one of the secondary Hive Minds, specifically Hive Mind Quantum. Reports show that Hive Mind Quantum has become weak in the days of the Rift Storms and this is the perfect chance for humanity to strike back at the Daemons.
So your characters, which is basically the only resistance force Humanity has to offer, are going to be sent out into the Daemon infested world in order to find and destroy Hive Mind Quantum. How you go about achieving such a goal is up to you and other players. I’ll only nudge you along in case you get off track or are derailed because of some events.

Argon Jaden
Name:
Azure Lavone
Age:
20
Appearance:
Spoiler: Host Azure
Gender:
Male
Sexual Orientation:
Demisexual/Bisexual
Psychology [Personality And Mentality]:
He's a very stubborn man. Azure is the kind of person who takes yes for a yes, a no for a yes and an uncertain answer for idiocy. He's the type to adapt quickly to his situation, often changing just to suit it. One would call him detached, but that's exactly what and how he was taught. He can be ruthless and harsh if he wants to, but its hard to tell under that playful facade. As long as you respect him, or gain his respect, he will not butt heads with you. Azure has this I'm my own man mentality, but he refuses to leave others behind. Honestly, he's not the hero type, and is more of the really smooth, flirty criminal. The flirty part is his annoying part, since he literally flirts with anything on two legs, with no care for personal space. The only person who could actually, and literally, beat him to submission is his master, as she taught him all the skills he knew in fighting.
Historical Reference [Biography]:
At the young age of five, his parents had died to an illness of sorts, leaving him orphaned. But a few days after their death, he was taken in by Amanda Zweig, a brusque woman with a soft heart for children. She and her late husband, Heidrich Zweig, could not have children because she was barren. With that, he was taken under her wing. Surprisingly, for a young boy, he was a lot faster, with adaptation skills that made people wonder if he was even human. And slowly, he too began to notice the strange affinity he had over light energy. Taking quick note of this, Amanda (or Master, as she preferred to be addressed as) began to ruthlessly train him, often leaving him with an aching body and dislocated, or in some rare occasions, broken bones. She was rough and motherly all at the same time, being the support he needed when he felt helpless.
Heidrich, his foster father, also played a great role in his life. If his wife was the Teacher and Tormentor, the he was the Friend and Comforter. He's a large man, towering over Azure's 5'8 with his 6'6. The man was a giant teddy bear who taught him about forgiving, being kind and being the warm fuzzy people can't resist. Of course, Heidrich's life was ended when he was killed by a Daemon right before their very eyes. So far, Azure has taken it up to himself to avenge him.
Historia Bibilia [Military History]:
Azure doesnt have any military experience, but Heidrich does, and he did teach the boy a few survival tricks that saved him in battle. He has been visiting training camps though, but often gets into trouble because they feel that he is too "warm and fuzzy" with his bunkmates and is a little too stubborn for his own good.
Primary Weapon:
A modified Crossbow of sorts where the arrows he shoot either explode or set an area ablaze if it isn't his normal arrows. He brings them along in 10-10-40 ratios respectively. He often places them in a mechanical case attached to the back of his armor, though it is detachable. Azure is itching to get his hands on Daemon blood though, at least 100 ml of it so he could get Amanda to formulate a poison to counter it.
Secondary Weapon:
An Energy Katana that allows him to focus light energy and wrap it around the blade, or in some rare occasions, turn the blade into light energy. He refrains from doing this though since it guarantees at least a day in bed. It can be used without energy around it though.
Gear [Outfit, Holdables, etc.]:
His Armor Suit leaves little room for pockets, but it does allow him to attach a few things (his arrow case, five grenades, five flashbangs and a fart bomb... Though he really doesn't know why his foster mother wanted him to take it out during battle. It smells) to his armor. The armor more less allows him to focus his energy, giving him the ability to still retaliate at long ranged fights.

Spoiler: Abilities
• Spark
- When his ammo runs out, he can produce sparks out of light energy, often sending a slight jolt towards enemies. It seems to stun Daemons though, and gives on enough time to run. He can't keep it up for too long as it takes its toll on his immune system.
• Transcend
- This ability allows him to imbed light energy into any item, usually his sword, to deal more damage on his opponents. He doesn't use this much if he doesn't have an amplifier, like his sword or armor.
• Jump
- Energy allows him to shift his body forward in a blink of an eye, where it can range from Five feet to Ten. It's more of a replacing maneuver than an attack, and leaves him a bit disoriented, similar to how one is when he simply wakes up.
• Last Arrow
- Azure releases a wave of glowing blue energy thrice, having the ability to cut through things like lazer, but it fizzles out after a minute, and leaves him seeing spots and tottering on his feet. Worst case scenarios leave him paralyzed and bedridden for twelve or more hours.
Spoiler: Pets
In his bunker he has two adorable balls of fluff that reside with him. These are the orphaned kittens that had been born a few months back. It's mother had been taken underground by Amanda, but she had died, leaving only two kittens he's so fond of; Little Mimio (Female) and playful Necoco (Male). Insult anyone except his "babies". He loves them to bits and pieces.

Psychology [Personality And Mentality]:
Meet Miss Congeniality. Az is a fun loving, chirpy girl who almost, never says no. She's the type to never back down from a challenge, always looking at things with a positive light, though honestly, there is a dark side to her. She's not afraid to kill or be killed. The woman is pretty much invincible when it comes to verbal fights, though she prefers to not partake in them, still, she is a force to recon when angry. People shudder at the sight of her frowning face, which means that she's not at all afraid to fling others into the direction of the furnace. Still, the's as friendly and as playful as a puppy, but is even worse than an enraged shark during 'those times'.
Battle-wise, she hates getting left behind, often the one doing the leaving and though her tone is sugary, her words can be poisonous and deadly at times. Az hates it when people walk around like mindless thugs who simply do what others want without asking questions. To her, Ask if you don't understand, before you jump right in. Failure to do so will receive a very cheerful, and preppy bitchslap. Also, she's the type to boss people around. Sweetly might I add.
Historical Reference [Biography]:
Three years ago, she and her older brother were the only survivors of their family consisting of ten. (Two older sisters, four older brothers and her parents of course). Having seen them wiped out before her eyes was thought to have a negative effect on her, but surprisingly, she retained her cheerful outlook. Sadly, her brother died just two months after they had escaped. The poisonous gas had been slowly killing him and she had no idea.
Alone in the world, the girl slowly maxed out the abilities that she hid from her family; the ability to heal. Mainly, she felt that she had failed her brother because she had found out too late and was completely unable to help him, despite wanting to. Because of her skills, she forced herself to join the army, surprisingly surpassing those in her class. She became a skilled sniper, quick on her feet and silent as night. With these in mind, she vowed to bring earth back to its rightful owners, pledging her brother that she would spray his ashes over the sea when she was done.
Historia Bibilia [Military History]:
She joined a training camp that was supposedly exclusive for boys, but after proving herself more than worth, she managed to survive the gruesome training, with flying colors and a badge to her name. Being a fighter herself, she requested the sniper position, hoping to be able to cover for those in the middle of the fight.
Primary Weapon:
Az has a Sniper Rifle which she loads with static bullets. Her bullets are custom made, as they release a shock of electricity upon impact. She could see up to 5 mi, and has a 97.5% chance of hitting a target.
Secondary Weapon:
Switchable with her Rifle, she also has a Bazooka strapped onto her back. Like her earlier weapon, this also has static that paralyzes anything within five meters radius. Pretty good in slowing enemies down, but it also affects friends too so, she has to be very careful when firing.
Gear [Outfit, Holdables, etc.]:
Her Armor Suit has wings, which allow her to immediately evacuate, and also gives her flight and speed advantage in close combat, though she tries to avoid this as much as possible. To help with close combat, she has two Hooked Daggers. The daggers glow green, indicating that it has the ability to drain one of physical energy and transport it to the user. The hook on the other end is used to hook people towards her... or hook herself in places.

Spoiler: Abilities
• Heal
- The ability to seal small cuts and stop blood flow, or speed up the human healing process. She only uses this in dire situations because it drains her physically. The more critical the wound, the more energy it takes for her to heal it.
• Life Steal
- Usually embedded in her daggers, this one sucks out the physical energy of an enemy, making them exhausted and giving her adrenaline. This is very helpful in battle, but with the dangers of actually touching an enemy, it's not commonly used.
Spoiler: Pets
She loves animals, and she has two dogs, the last gifts given to her by her father before he died. Snow(White; Female) and Shade(Black; Male) are huskies that she has trained to be strict, and often attacks when they 'feel' that Az is getting annoyed or angry.
Spoiler: Alexander Chancsolus (Played By Hoef)
Username: Avalon Hoef
Name: Alexander Chancsolus [Alexander The Great]
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Psychology: Alexander, born under one of the many proud [and dead] generals of Russia during the Great Devastation, was given the skills and personality of a proud and brave leader. However his leadership does not come without faults. Much like any other Russian general [during this time] Alexander had suffered the constant bombardment of destructive thoughts and insane, but beneficial, ideas that could very well get him killed in the long run. He does not hesitate and he does not stall. If it is a life he is taking that is beneficial to him then he will not hesitate to take that life. Thus, as a result of this, he is not has merciful as people make him out to be. He doesn’t mean to harm anyone, but if it comes down to it he won’t hesitate in pulling the trigger.
Historical Reference: Alexander, dubbed Alexander the Great, was born into a famous military family; the Chancsolus family. Alexander Chancsolus was a free-spirited child growing up, always exploring and discovering new things about the world around him. He lived a childhood that most children, born under an extremely military family, would be living at this moment in time. However since Alexander was Russian, on his father’s side, Alexander was introduced to the military style of the Russian Navy. Alexander’s life was mostly constructed around his love for discovery and the sea and from then on, even after the days of the Great Devastation, he’s loves would propel him to make one of the hardest decisions of his life.
Historia Bibilia: Being born under Leonid Aleksandrovich Chancsolus, the High General of the Russian Navy during the Great Devastation, Alexander was only a teenager who was just getting out of highschool when he was recruited, by his father, during the Pre-Great Devastation timeline. Alexander, whose mother did not like his recruitment, decided to participate in the navy and soon flew through the ranks displaying the characteristics of his father. He rose to a Fleet Commander and by that time had participated, much like his father, in the Great Devastation [the day the Daemon Horde arrived]. He fought off many Daemons with his leadership and cunning appeals. However his fleet was defeated by the Ziggurat leaving him to be the only survivor of that incursion.

Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Psychology [Personality And Mentality]: Though he is not too sure of himself, he is more considered of a follower instead of a leader. At tough times, he wouldn't say anything to worsen the situation or cause more trouble in a certain group. Half the time, he would remain silent, but allow his actions speak for him. Every now and then he would speak, but only when he was given a question and he does tried to give a simple answer.
Historical Reference [Biography]: He was born in this world, though mostly raised by his father. He was informed his mother was captured by the Daemons on the surface, and was never heard of ever again. Though he kept his hopes high of knowing his mother was still alive. His father was very rough at raising him, always placing discipline and studies in his face so he too could survive this world. Living with his father was difficult, he never really played with the other children that roamed in the lower bunkers.
Historia Bibilia [Military History]: His father wanted him not only to survive, but also able to defend himself. He placed Diego in the resistance military when he was 16, trained with a few recruits, the training was harsh. Even worse when he was placed in a hole to test his durability of no food or water for a week. He had no problem with the no food sort, but the water was getting to his mind. Dehydration was their main concerned for their survival and Diego had to push himself to the edge point of no return. Allowing himself to hallucinate, become a sort of a feral, and a bit insane.
After months of hard training, and especially the cruel moments of certain events. He thought he was never survived basic training.

Patch
Age:

Gender:
Male
Sexual Orientation:
Heterosexual
Psychology [Personality And Mentality]:
Patch is, well, he's just Patch. He doesn't talk often, but he's not against talking when necessary. He just prefers to let his work do the talking for him. He has the habit of taking things apart to learn about them, and then put them back together in a completely different, and more efficient, way. His problem is that he's smart, with a mind that can step back and see things from a different angle than that of a normal view. He doesn't look like he has a good head on his shoulder, however, and so people tend to assume his more muscle than brains. This often makes it hard for him to avoid arguments, especially when there is a better way of making something work than how it currently is.
That's why he let's his work talk for him; if he can improve the efficiency of a defense weapon, or offense weapon, and have proof, then he doesn't have need to explain himself. Now a days he just lies and says that whatever Neo Occ-Tech he brings to the bunkers he bought off of some surface traveler. His hands always seem to fidget when they're not taking something apart or he's not gripping something; a tick that he has had ever since he was a kid, before the Great Devastation.
Historical Reference [Biography]:
Patch was barely thirteen when the Great Devastation occurred, taking not only his parents but his two younger sisters as well. In less than a few hours, he was made an orphan among millions, and soon even that number began to dwindle. He was lucky, and picked up by a group that was making their way to an underground bunker; humanity hadn't completely died it seemed.
Once in the bunker, for two years Patch still refused to speak to anyone, and often got into trouble when he was discovered tinkering with equipment-of course, no one complained after it was noticed that said equipment was working at a higher efficiency rate than before. It was only when he was asked for the upteenth time when he was fifteen what his name was that he simply answered, "Patch." Secretly after that, he began to study the layout of the bunkers, the entrances to the surfaces and the location of each connected bunker.
When he was seventeen, Patch left his bunker and went to the surface for the first time in four years. He was readily prepared, of course; he didn't have any interest in dying. Over the next few years, he moved from one ruined city to the next, gathering Occ-Tech and creating his own Neo Occ-Tech with what he could find. Every few months, he'll stop and go to the nearest underground bunker for supplies and business; selling Occ-Tech was a good business to have these days, and he wasn't one to pass it up.
Why he left the safety of the bunkers for the dangerous world above? Well, in his words, "I hate being confined-dulls the senses and the hands."
Historia Bibilia [Military History]:
Patch, as it stands to date, has no formal military training. While this may leave some things to be desired-such as discipline and obedience-he is very efficient with his weapons of choice. He was well aware when he left the bunker at seventeen that he wouldn't be able to survive on his brain alone, and so he taught his tinker's hands to be a fighter's hands. Being entirely honest, his hands have always told his story better than his words, so it was simple to teach himself how to wield a weapon or two, especially when he could always modify them to fit his needs.
Primary Weapon:
A modified Energy Sniper Rifle. With a few deviations from the original design, Patch's rifle is more accurate than regular Neo Occ-Tech. It's perfect for long distance target, which he prefers. The rounds that it uses he keeps clipped to his belt, and always has spares.
Secondary Weapon:
Two Energy USP-C Hand Guns. Made for close combat situations, Patch modified them to take the same basic type of rounds as his Rife, with the exception that the clips that the USP-C's us are more like a rechargeable battery pack. The charge level is what decides how many rounds he has available. A full charge is the max at twenty rounds.
Gear [Outfit, Holdables, etc.]:
His gear is not something commonly found among those that travel to the surface. Most of it is his own design, with modifications that fit his specific needs. He carries a satchel that normally holds inmportant documents or items, and the clothing itself has a number of pockets that hold other things. Energy flares, flashlights, things of that nature. It's light and allows him as much free movement as possible above ground. His mask even is something of his own design, something that cycles the carbon dioxide he breathes out, combines with some of the filtered air outside, and creating new oxygen. He carries his Rifle on his back and his two USP-C's under his jacket, on either side of his belt. When he knows he's traveling longer, he has an extra pack that he carries that rest on his back over the Rifle.

In the last six years, he's seen that while humans can't easily survive on the surface, animals adapt much faster. When he came across a German Shepherd pup-about six months old really-he was more than just a little surprised. Now, the dog is his faithful traveling companion, and a pretty decent guardian. Patch calls him Zeus.

Username:
Veloci
Name:
Aaron Krall
Age:
22
Spoiler: Appearance
Aaron stands at 177.8 cm whilst standing straight up. He weighs 80.74 kg.
Gender:
Male
Sexual Orientation:
Heterosexual
Psychology [Personality And Mentality]:
Aaron is very charismatic and intelligent. He can analyze a situation and make quick decisions that will usually result in victory. He also knows when to not attack an enemy, and instead avoid it. In fact, Aaron prefers to not fight at all, and wishes to accomplish a goal without fighting, because it means no one has to die. Aaron get's attached to people very easily, and will be hurt if someone that he likes is killed. However, when Aaron sees a friend or person close to him die, he will stop at nothing to avenge them, making him seem more hasty in his decisions, and more brash than he normally would.
Historical Reference [Biography]:
Aaron was born the third child of a loving family on the surface. He was taught normal things, such as Math, English and Reading. He had a brother and a sister, whom he loved very dearly, and they loved him. They were the textbook definiton of what a perfect family was. Sadly, it was not to last. When he was 10 and out scavenging, Demons descended upon his family. His family fought back, but they were eventually overcome and slain. Wracked with grief, Aaron left the site of his families death, and found a wandering swordsman. The man said nothing to Aaron, he just took in the poor lost boy, and taught him everything he knew, so Aaron could carry on the legacy of the Wandering Swordsman. Aaron quickly caught on to the art of the sword, and became a master by the age of 19. It was the very next day that the Wandering Swordsman passed away peacefully in his sleep. Aaron buried his body and swore to be a beacon of hope and light in the darkness that had overtaken the world. It was after he buried the man that he found the armor, hidden behind a secret panel in the wall. All that was there was the suit, and a note, saying one simple thing. "You brought me happiness, young one. Now take this, and use it to help you bring hope to the world." Since that day, Aaron has taken on the mantle of the Wandering Swordsman, and wanders the world, saving those who cannot save themselves.
Historia Bibilia [Military History]:
Aaron never served in a military, of any sort. The closest he has gotten to such was when, at the age of 21, he fought with a group of others against demons, saving the weak from death. It was there he learned how to use Bullpup rifles, and he is an adept in their operation. Besides that, Aaron has killed many demons, using a HF Blade that he got from the Wandering Swordsman.
Primary Weapon:
Swords, specifically a High Frequency Blade.
Spoiler: HF Blade
Spoiler: Secondary Weapon
Bullpup Assault Rifles. (TAR-21, FAMAS, FN F2000 etc.)
But he prefers to use the TAR-21 over all other varieties of Bullpup.
(His TAR looks just like this btw)
Gear [Outfit, Holdables, etc.]:
Spoiler: Suit/Armor
Aaron has a suit made out of a fine nano-fiber weave material. As such, it is very light, but gives the same protection as heavy body armor. It also slightly boosts his already impressive physical attributes. (It makes him have faster reflexes and have a higher speed as well as strength.)
[Note: He has 4 M68 Frag Grenades, which explode upon impact with a surface.]

Valeriya Sofiya Maksimov
Age:
19
Spoiler: Appearance
(Ignore the Animal Ears please, but, if someone really wants to, they can give her animal ears... >.>)
Valeriya is 170 cm tall, and weighs 71.12 kg.
Gender:
Female
Sexual Orientation:
Bisexual
Psychology [Personality And Mentality]:
Valeriya is very friendly to strangers, and seems bubbly and cheerful to most. However, this is just a front for a much darker personality. In reality, Valeriya loves to toy with people and is actually very cruel. She was known for torturing people and animals for no reason other than it would entertain her. However, she was almost never cruel to those whom she cared about, or made her feel good, in one way or the other. As such, Valeriya has been though of as insane, but she just has a fucked up sense of morals. She is also a bit of a masochist.
Historical Reference [Biography]:
Valeriya was born and raised on the surface by a cruel man, known only as The Night Terror. He kidnapped children and beat them for his amusement. This behavior rubbed off on to Valeriya, and she became his favorite, always getting his 'special attention'. She helped him beat the other children, and she came to enjoy the behavior after a few years. The man also taught her to use rifles accurately and to compensate for recoil with a gun correctly, during his few and far between moments of kindness. When she was 15, the man was killed by people, calling themselves 'Heroes'. She was distraught, because the man was the closest thing to a father she had had. She then went on to hunt down and kill every single one of the men who had killed her 'Father'. She would kill them all slowly, finding them, and then shooting them in the knees, in such a way so as to not kill them. She would then torture and kill them slowly, drawing out the pain. She finally had the last one die when she was 18, and she has since wandered the wastes, making a name for herself amongst the population.
Historia Bibilia [Military History]:
Valeriya has no military history. The closest thing is her hunting down and killing things for her amusement with her Rifle and sometimes her Desert Eagle.

Female
Sexual Orientation:
Bisexual
Psychology [Personality And Mentality]:
Determined, with a streak of cunning and intelligence, in possession of a lack of etiquette and entirely alien to the whole concept of shame with a dash of uncaring and a final sprinkling of boisterousness. Don’t be surprised when she comes up to you naked and talking, quite loudly and animatedly, on her latest assignment. And if you should ask her to put something on, expect a reply going alone the lines of “Why? It’s not too cold, I’ll be fine”.
Historical Reference [Biography]:
Born to a CEO of an industrial machinery and cybernetics company, she was home tutored for her ‘special talent’, kept away from those that might hurt her out of unknown spite. Later in life, she became progressively more interested in her father’s work, and eventually went onto to study mechanical engineering and cybernetics. At the age of 20, when the Fall hit, she was ushered into the secret weapon labs underneath her home, which so happened to be his workplace as well. She stayed sealed off for two years, no one but herself and the various droids there to keep her company. Least she’d get plenty of peaceful study time…
Two years later, a mining droid tasked with discovering new materials to be used on her latest projects and to attend to the maintenance of things, one struck upon a neighboring Fall Bunker. As it returned, it was shortly followed by military forces investigating the anomaly. What they were greeted with was a sleepy young women with a severe lack of clothes who’s rest they had disturbed, and flanked by warbots that might of one day replaced flesh and blood troops.
She spent the next eight years acting as a mechanic and make shift nurse, and doing the occasional cybernetic checkup. At first, the community disliked the women – none of them knew why they instantly took displeasure in her presence, and soon enough rumors were made to try justify their hate, often hearing insults as she passed through the corridors, ‘slut’ being a particular favorite of theirs with her disregard for clothing at times. Though this abused stopped just as it reached an all-time high as a small group attempted to rape her, and suffice to say it ended in Bloody Tears. They soon found themselves broken and moaning in pain a as women carrying a blood stained wrench walked away from the scene.
She didn’t get much trouble after that. Now a days, instead of leaning out to jeer at her, they hide away, keeping their heads down as she passes, afraid they’ll become the same as those shattered men found in the corridor, her passing indicated by her whistling growing faint and sighs of relief.

Her right arm is a cybernetic replacement gained from a maintenance run on the heating system, ending in it becoming an ashen ruin. Her frame is also subsequently enhanced, her bone structure strengthened to prevent the arm just ripping off, and to act as an anchor to future cybernetics.
She is also a blank, people just not liking her, themselves not even knowing why, though it does mean her very presence dampens psychic powers, and makes her immune to being directly effected by them.
