((gonna try this again..... because last time things got confusing and slow.... super quick.... this is taking place AFTER the meteor shower. if you wish to have your character do a flashback, so be it.))

Evangelists called it the rapture. The beginning of the end of civilization. Fire had fallen from the skies. Irradiated meteors, they said, crashing through the earth's atmosphere from an indeterminable source. Blackouts rolled over big cities while nuclear power plants had meltdowns in several different individual countries.... Casualties were at a million, and the population of smaller or developing countries were all but wiped out.

Those of us who were effected by this attack from the heavens first-hand and lived... were changed forever. We gained... powers and abnormalities. Each different then the last... Some of us became violent, overcome by primal rage. Some of gained from it, gaining a heightened intelligence or the ability to aid those in need . Other were driven to the brink of madness... there was more destruction than there were benefits.

The crime rate raised considerably as well as a strange trend of costume wearing vigilantes with strange and amazing powers. That's right, Super heroes and villains were no longer just the stuff of comic books...

The Setting: New York City (of course). Politicians are battling it out on whether or not the super heroes are good for the city. A new crime syndicate called the Zhombeys, consisting only on those physically and mentally maimed by the Rapture, ravage the streets on their way up to power, while an "ex-super hero" runs for governor. Police forces are forced to turn to outside help, while trying to protect civilians from getting caught in the crossfire of "Good and Evil".

Information needed:

Name:
Alias(if they have one):
Alignment: "Good", "Evil", or "neutral" (If you haven't decided yet, just put neutral, we'll figure it out Remember! Not everything is black and white. So those who are considered "Good" may not truly have the best intentions and vice versa).
Powers/Strengths:
Weaknesses:(Their weaknesses have to be equivalent to their power/strengths. I don't want to see any super strong super heroes who can fly, shoot lasers, and dodge bullets with their only weakness being a fucking rare rock)
And whatever else you think is important. e.g. Physical description, background, age, gender, etc.

Rules: There are only two

<b>No Godmoding. Urban dictionary defines God modding as "when someone’s character has the ability to do practically anything without limits or boundaries. And example is when they simply cannot be harmed by any and all means other RP-ers try." as well as controlling other characters' reaction to it. Please, please, please PLEASE don't try to make your character flawless in any way. It makes a shallow, unrelatable character and draws away from the story itself and all the other characters. The more flaws, the better, the more interesting the character, and the more dynamic the plot. Even if they are flawless in appearance, characters may have personality flaws

Keep all characters within reason They must be humans with or without unnatural powers. They can only have gained said powers after the meteor shower.
