The year is 2043. There are only three groups known in this continent we used to call North America.
Firstly, there's the Redstone Corporation.
Secondly, the Black Gloves, Redstone's inside men.
And thirdly, the most important. John.
The Redstone Corporation has made all its money and gained all of its power using a substance- namely, Red-dust- to control what once were the citizens of the United States. The substance drains the people of their emotions and after enough usage of the medication, makes them complete drones and entirely moldable. These 100% "treated" people make up the Black Gloves, a covert society created by the Redstone Corporation for one reason and one reason only- to hunt down and kill the members of John.
John is basically an organized rebellion against what has come of the country. Started by a person whom current John members have dubbed "The Man Who Didn't Need a Name", it has been fighting to take down Redstone facilities and wipe out the Black Gloves. They are all about originality and self expression, which are the exact things that Redstone wants to drain everyone of. So, subsequently, John is made up of some very outlandishly creative individuals. The name of the group is purely to camoflague it- if one were to speak of the group in conversation, it would sound like they were referring to an average person.
John's members create fake aliases to keep their true identities from becoming found out by Redstone or the Black Gloves. John's primary weaponry is explosives, which are created by a division of the group called Flameroses. John's members signal each other using firecrackers that depict their specific insignias.
The Black Gloves dress all in white aside from their namesake- a single black glove, usually worn on the left hand. If worn on the right, they are of the highest ranking. They all look alike other than their facial structures, eye/hair colours, and heights. They use different meds to do their dirty work, and most commonly they'll sedate the victim before administering Red-dust.
The Redstone Corporation is made up of stuck up business people who all dress in white, much like the Black Gloves but not as uniformed. They oversee the Black Gloves' missions and keep track of the people who are in "treatment" on Red-dust. They keep records of encounters with John members(commonly referred to as Johns) and who has been treated in that group. Pictures of each member encountered are kept on file and struck with a black 'x' across the image when they have been treated.
All of this is set in a desert-like area.

(Yay! :3 So can I post? :o) |
|
|
(Maybe we should wait it out a little longer? Get a few more people? I just really hope this idea goes over well.) |
|
|
(Alright, it does seem like this could be a good RP. I'm very excited to start.) |
|
|
Can my character be a member of another organization, like a gang existing in the story's canon? |
|
|
Well if I can't, just change mine to "John's".
Organization: *CLASSIFIED*
Alias: Sonata
Real Name: Kenji Ikezawa
Ag.e: 29
Appearance: SEE: My avatar
Kenji sports spiked midnight-black hair which has an odd habit of standing up even in the absence of wind. His skin is a light beige, but his face is a slightly lighter tone, due to its lack of exposure to sunlight. His face is almost always obscured by a mask, with a signature Rising-Sun on it. He is rarely seen wearing anything besides a professional-looking suit and tie, albeit with body armor underneath. His right arm, obscured by the sleeve of his suit, is actually mechanical, but it is rarely revealed to anyone. A military wristwatch is seen on his left arm.
Bio: Born in Japan, he was a law-abiding citizen for most of his 29 years of life. He studied hard as a teen, and was an attractive target for many universities across the world. When he graduated from his university with a major in Economics, he began a business that went well at first. However, Redstone quickly displaced the need for his business, and he gradually lost clients. After his final client pulled out and his company was declared "Bankrupt", he had a mental breakdown. He turned to dr/ugs and alco/hol, and soon lost his home. He went on a binge, watching action films at his girlfriend's apartment, and also spent time researching espionage and terrorism. This resulted him in spending the last bit of money in his bank account into weapons, and a new persona at the age of 28. He emerged as a thief, and a terrorist. Fueled by a deep hatred for Redstone for what they did to his business, he constantly harassed their local establishments, destroying Red-dust rations when he could, and making a name for himself. Along with a few other men like him, he formed an urban-guerrilla terrorist organization aiming to take down Redstone: The Knowns. Hiding his identity behind a mask he created himself, he embarked on a life of stealing money from the vaults of Redstone and sabotaging factories with the other Knowns.
Personality: Extremely methodical and analytical at whatever he does, from assassination to sabotage. Essentially a chess-master, being able to consistently second-guess his opponents moves, and where they might be going to try to kill him. When with other Known members or even his girlfriend, he is very introverted and withdrawn, even occasionally preferring to "speak" in Sign-Language.
Insignia: Rising Sun
Explosive of Choice: Thermite, C4, Semtex
Division: Within Known: CLASSIFED
When collaborating with the John's: Flamerose |
