Psychosis Interest Check
OOC Board
Okay, I've lurked a while and haven't found myself jumping into anything yet. So I'll take a go at my own, but first I'll check if anyone even cares (and this is a bit out there, so we'll see.) If there's interest I can expand if you want me to, with pictures, histories, bios and what not. Or I won't, if you find that kind of thing redundant or my writing too boring.
Time period: Just a teeny bit in the future, some enhanced versions of modern technology are basically the only differentiating detail.
Short Version: A being resembling a god has been struck down by some careless mortal. This being, too powerful to cease existing in such a mundane manner, instead collides with earth and shatters - into three parts. Each part is a manifestation of the original being's mind: The Order, The Free, and The Open (Superego, Id, and Ego respectively.) The being's presence distorts the fabric of reality itself, and earth morphs to fit the three personalities. The factions of The Order and The Free wage a never ending war. The Open, the only entity capable of restoring things to normal, is lost - though it's denizens remain out in the open. Both The Order and The Free seek to destroy The Open and harness it's power, breaking the stalemate and shaping the world in their image. Humans have become pawns in this war and now serve one of the three entities - each entity mutates the human to fit it's image. (Here come your character choices):
The Order:
The Free:
The Open:
So. Let me know if I missed something, or you have a question. Or you're interested. Or you hate it.

The Order:
- Spoiler:
- Description: Duty, honor and control are paramount to soldiers of Order. They are trustworthy and loyal as friends, but punish weakness and impulsiveness ruthlessly. Punishment is almost always death, there is very little middle ground or gray area when it comes to The Order. Personal privacy and liberty is not known in Order culture. While the authority's are all powerful and all pervasive, they are capable of benevolence so long as the rules are followed.
Abilities: No inherent abilities other than an inexhaustible supply of discipline. However, this intrinsic discipline allows them to excel at worldly pursuits such as marksmanship, piloting, mathematics, science....anything that can be 'learned' basically.
Aesthetics (you can pick one or a combination if possible): Dull or complete lack of colors, missing facial features or totally faceless (except mouths), lithe, practical clothing/armor, faceless masks/helmets.
The Free:
- Spoiler:
- Description: The Free can be described as many things, and often they do not stick to one personality. The Free's culture is almost a collection of clans, with the uniting purpose of destroying all restrictions. They can be lustful, conniving, attentive and forgiving allies at their best, but this is mirrored by a capacity for unrestrained hatred and sadism. The Free live on the extreme ends of emotion, and thus have an acceptance of moral ambiguity their Order counterparts do not.
Abilities: Alluring, bestial strength
Aesthetics (you can pick one or a combination if possible): Extravagant clothing, unnatural skin tone, terrifying or beautiful, claws, fangs, oddly colored hair, oddly colored eyes, grotesquely long tongues, often ambiguous gender
The Open:
- Spoiler:
- Description: There is no single unifying culture for The Open. Many live amongst Order and Free peoples. A small group exists that searches for their leader in hopes of ending the nightmarish place earth has become. Denizens of The Open seemed to have retained the most human qualities, though those living amongst other factions are almost always subservient and overly accommodating.
Abilities: Calming, manipulation, limited shape changing (chameleon-esque)
Aesthetic: No unique aesthetics, often blend with other factions.
So. Let me know if I missed something, or you have a question. Or you're interested. Or you hate it.

Re: Psychosis Interest Check
I am interested I am a bit of a slow poster but I figured you'd rather have this going slow than not at all!
I haven't decided which character type I want to be...all three sound very interesting!

Re: Psychosis Interest Check
Alright, cool.
Slow posting is not a problem, I'm capable of being patient.

Re: Psychosis Interest Check
Awesome. Is there a long version of the story? I was wondering, since your post said "Short Version".
I am still trying to decide between one of the Open and one of the Free. I might have to make both...

Re: Psychosis Interest Check
Yeah, the longer version would include important people, locations, and specifics on each faction and that sort of thing. I was going to put it up in an OOC if there was confusion about the setting, but I didn't want to scare off people with a wall of text right away.

Re: Psychosis Interest Check
Haha Okay. Well if you want to sit on this and wait and see if there is any more interest, I'm game. Or,if you want to post the OOC now, I can try and tackle it

Re: Psychosis Interest Check
I suppose there is no harm in setting up the OOC. I'll get started on that, it'll probably take me 30 minutes or so.
