Setting Description: A horrible disease has swept across the continent. The government is horribly incompitent at dealing with it and a large portion of the country quickly falls into anarchy. They try to remedy this by creating a program called the I.I.S (Infection Incineration Squad). Unfortunately the I.I.S (and the government as a whole) is horribly corrupt and ineffective. The I.I.S quickly quarantines any area with the disease and starts killing the infected and setting things on fire.
Important Info: The infection is extremely resistant to changes in temperature and can survive both on land and in water. The only reliable way to kill it is with fire. It can spread without a host and multiplies slowly. The most dangerous part about it it’s ability to secure itself in crevices like a weed. Even if you think you’ve destroyed it if any trace of it remains, no matter how small, it will slowly start to spread again. It is difficult to treat in humans and often leads to deterioration and eventual death. There are # stages to the disease. Stage one is the incubation period. It is nearly impossible to detect in this stage. Stage 1 can last for up to two days, and any direct contact with the area of infection or a surface it has touched will result in infection. Stage 2 is where symptoms start to show. A dark black discoloration to the infected area will appear and it will start to secrete a slick black substance. Extended contact (10 minutes or more) with this substance will infect anything it touches and is how the disease survives in water. If the infection is internal this substance will clog up pathways in the body, dramatically the speed at which the infection progresses and possibly leading to death if it interferes with the body’s essential processes.
Epithet: Shatter. Can break 3D holes in reality, this makes shards that act like a mirror that shows what was in the space they used to be. He can control the shards like projectiles or use them to slightly alter reality, like making or removing a small object. To do this, he needs to shatter the space he’s in. He can then step out of reality and alter it by drawing on the shards. When he’s outside reality nothing non Epithet can really hurt him. He appears as a black smokey silhouette with glowing white eyes. His scars glow as well, If he uses his powers for something big.
Other: Extremely observant. He’s infected but keeps it at bay with his epithet. The initial infection point was his lungs. Luckily skin to skin contact doesn’t spread it for him because it hasn’t traveled there yet.
Appearance: Wears a facemask with a red X painted on, a dark blue faded hoodie, slightly ripped blue gray jeans, and a white t-shirt with the same X as the mask. He has scars from using his epithet to shatter large spaces. They look like shattered glass going out from his eyes to his collarbone and from his wrists out to his hands and up his arms. They bleed when he uses his epithet too much. He also has lighter scars all across his body from shattering himself, they’re hard to see unless you know what you’re looking at.
Epithet: Deadeye. It causes her to never miss a shot, but she goes blind while using it. The blindness lasts for 10 minutes after the accuracy wears off and she can’t use it again for 15 minutes. It slowly damages her eyes while in use. When she uses it her eyes get clouded over.
Other: She’s part of the A.I.F (Anti Incineration Front), a resistance group against the I.I.S. She’s brash and likes to taunt enemies, especially when she has the upper hand.
Appearance: Wears a dark grey and green poncho, dark black gloves, and dark black pants.
Epithet: Tear. She can rip anything apart like paper but it can rebound and tear bits of skin or clothing off. It has caused her to develop scars across her whole body as a result and she has to constantly repair her clothing. the scars will occasionally glow when she uses her epithet on anything bigger than a truck. Her wounds cause her great physical stress and her epithet is renowned for its potency.
Other: Hates people. She joined the A.I.F. because she just wants people to leave her alone and all this anarchy really isn’t helping. She ended up getting attached to them and now she genuinely cares. She doesn’t show it, but she trusts them with her life.
Appearance: She usually wears a faded lilac shirt, a dark purple-blue hoodie, and ripped black pants. She almost always has bandages covering her hands, arms, and legs. Her clothes are frayed at the edges and always have a few small rips in them.
Epithet: Magnetism. He has a natural magnetic field around him, causing metal objects to shift around when near him. He can attract or repel things from him at varying speeds. He can also magnetize other things and people to one another. If he doesn’t use his power enough his magnetic field strengthens. Eventually it becomes a hazard.
Other: He’s the resident medic. He’s become close friends with Mera due to her epithet hurting her so much. He nearly got an arm chopped off once when he didn’t use his power for a few days.
Appearance: He wears a light pink shirt with long sleeves, a bright red biker jacket with lots of pockets, and blue jeans. He has a light blue leather bag with an over the shoulder strap that’s filled with medical supplies.
Other: Her and Gio were friends before the apocalypse and decided to stick together. Gio was a bit hesitant to join the A.I.F but Molly convinced him.
Epithet: Chance. She can summon a dice with any number of sides. When rolled whatever outcome is printed on that side happens immediately. She can specify what kind of actions but not the exact wording. For example: she could summon a healing dice but can’t control how much it would heal or hurt the recipient.
