The world has changed a lot in 300 years. After the incident with the oil-destroying nano machines, the places and people of today are destroyed, leaving but a few to repopulate and make sure something like this never happened again. To ensure this, all war is taken away, and people have an operation at sixteen to turn them into perfect faced Pretties. Before they have the operation, they are Uglies. Then, there are the Specials. Special Circumstances is the major secretive authority in all the cities, even though the cities have no contact to resolve wars.The members of Special Circumstances are simply known as Sepcials. Specials are made with a horribly cruel beauty, unbreakable alloy bones, extra keen senses, with a few thrown in, a type of transmitting skin cells called skintenna, and extreme speed and strength given to them through major reconstructive surgery. However, even though everyone looks supermodel gorgeous, something is horribly wrong. All the Pretties have lesions, or wounds, on the brain, making them think and act the same way. They are given these lesion during the Pretty operation. Some people know of these lesions and plan to destroy them. But the Specials have different plans. However, is the same true for the Specials? Do they have the mind controlling lesions that the pretties have?

This is an rp based on the trilogy of books by Scott Westerfeild. In the new high-tech world, everything is all about saving the environment. Hovercars, hoverboards, and massive surgery are some of the changes that have overtaken the world. I would prefer that you had read the books, but will accept anyone that wants to join. Please, the main focus of the rp is to further the series, so please, no getting to far from the subject.

Char. Name: Taumis (pronounced Thomas) Proudrock
Age: 17
Type: Special
Appearance: http://www.gaiaonline.com/profile/in...22060435199219 (Gaian Avatar. Reconstructive surgey, or surge, gave him ears, tail, and wings.)
Personality: Is quiet and attentive, but has massive outbursts of anger, thanks to the special lesions in his brain. Currently, he is trying to break the lesions by working his brain around them.
History: He was a very tricky Pretty, causing havoc everywhere he went. That's why Special Circumstances wanted him. He was their obedient puppet, attacking innocents and killing people. Then, he learned of the Special lesions and was disgusted to find out that Special Circumstances had tried to control him that easily. Now, he is trying to figure out a cure for the lesions.
Added Info: He is excellent, like all Specials, at tracking and feild work, but finds his place at the kitchen, or a library.

Taumis was riding his hoverboard through the factory belt outside of New Pretty Town. and getting some fresh air in his lungs. Nothing made him happier than getting into nature and playing with its forces, proving his mettle against the torrents and mealstroms. His crash bracelets were snug on his wrists, making sure that he would have a safe ride, the magnets jumping right back to the board. "Too bad the magnetic grid doesn't wind its way through the forest. I would love to take a fly through the trees without the racket of my lifting fans." he said, looking down at his perfect hands. They were full of strength, but were as gentle as a kitten if he wished them to be.

"it's amazing that no one is ever around when you're bored." he thought, swatting the flys as he moved at cruising speed. "I geuss I'll go pay those Pretties a visit. Bubbleheads are at least better than the feedback." he said to himself, and turned to New Pretty Town.

As he flew over the party towers and mansions of extravagant New Pretty Town, he smiled at them all. "Pretties may be fools, but at least they are all allowed to have a good time. Those lucky bubbleheads." he said, looking down to those happy Pretties dancing and playing in the streets and mansions below. The dark was a perfect cover as he put on the smart mask that shaped his face into that of a normal Pretty. He hated wearing it, because it turned him into one of the crowd, and he was an individual. His ears, which were now hidden, and his tail, tucked safely in his pants, proved how much of an individual he was. No other Special had them, they all looked wolven in appearance.

Izzy was at the biggest party she had ever been at. This was crazy! Her and Peris were going to do the biggest trick they had ever tried. They were going to pay the Specails a little visit. Izzy was itching with excitment. "Ready Peris?" Izzy asked as they pulled on their gear in the elivator.

He finally set the board down on some soft grass in the park and switched to infrared vision, scoping out the land. Millions of fiery forms blazed across his vision, but most of them were just partying. He was not looking to mess with them. Right now, his mission was to find the individuals trying to find the specials and redirect them, making them think that specials didn't exist. That thought caused a burning anger in him. "I should be noticed. I'm special, different. Why am I confined to this life of solitude and unrecognition?" he mumbled. He finally spotted a pair of figures wandering away from the parties. "Gotcha." he said, smiling horribly at the two, and began to walk their way.

Izzy searched for Paris's hand in the dark. When she found it she gave it a quick squeeze and let go. She was so happy that Paris was doing this with her. They had become really close after Tally left. All of a sudden Paris stoped, turned and gave Izzy the sing to be as quite as passable.... Izzy could tell there was something wrong

"Hold on. I know you. You're Peris." he said, pointing to the boy. "That must mean you two are going to go out tricking. What's the plan?" he asked, trying to sound like a fan. The words tasted sour to him. 'I hate having to act like I don't know. This is worse than anything.' he thought, the smart mask staring to smother him.

"Maybe" Said Izzy. She looked at the stranger. He didnt look normal, he had the same face....but the eyes...."We were leaveing, Werent we?" Asked Peris as he tugged on Izzy's sleave. "Uh...?" Izzy said as she came out of her daze.

Username: scorpio grl
Char. Name: Alexis {but accepts nicknames} Cartwright
Age: 16, she just had her surgery seven months earlier. {I think that's the right age; I'm not sure.}
Type: Pretty
Appearance: http://s62.photobucket.com/albums/h117/scorpiongrl/?action=view¤t=gothgirlgheh.jpg {Her eyes alternate from an oceanic blue to purple according to her mood- her first surge.}
Personality: Usually bubbly/happy and mischievous around others, but when alone or with Jakob she is serious and hard-thinking- especially about fixing the leisons in her brain. She has bouts of "blondness" every now and then and dislikes the way she has to act around others to seem "normal". She loves to hoverboard and to go tricking. She's kinda lazy, but extremely smart.
History: Alice has always had a defient, noncompliant streak, even when she was a littlie. She was always pulling dubious escapades on her teachers, and even her friends, with sometimes reckless actions to make them happen, and she was always pushing the envelope with her best friend, Jakob. The teachers and authorities never liked either of them because as soon as they would send them back to their dorms, they were both out again, up to different pranks. Since her surgery she has calmed down a bit, the lesions taking effect, but she's still fairly tricky and rebellious. She ratically dyes her hair as dark a black, sometimes darker than, as the commitie allows and has red streaks in it, often changing to different combinations of purple, blue, red, and black. She is often in trouble and has a few "battle scars" from her pranks after the surgery. She went "surge happy" a few weeks ago and got a tattoo on the edge of both eyes { http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h117/scorpiongrl/1164327717_q0wqtx3dr6.jpg }and a tattoo of a fairie on her right shoulder blade that will wink and change expressions when she wishes it to- http://s62.photobucket.com/albums/h117/scorpiongrl/?action=view¤t=tattoosfaerie.jpg .
Added Info: She doesn't like needles, and is almost afraid of them; she dislikes skirts, but wears them anyway; she likes to surge.

Char. Name: Jakob Bension {Ben-shin}
Age: 17
Type: Pretty
Appearance: http://photobucket.com/mediadetail/?media=http%3A%2F%2Fi169.photobucket.com%2Falbums% 2Fu220%2FSenjuAsaki%2Fhot_anime_emo_vampire_by_emo tay.jpg&searchTerm=emo%20boy&pageOffset=4
Personality: He was and is Alexis's best friend and partner in crime, always running a muck with her and pulling pranks. He isn't as reckless and risk-taking as she is, but is just as determined to have a good time. He is usally happy and exulatant on the outside, but when alone or with just Alexis, he shows how sober and intelligent he really is. He loves to have a good time and is protective of those close to him.
History: He went to school with Alexis and they became good friends, her bringing out the more rebellious side of him. He got his surgery first since he is older, but he never forgot about her. They would often sneak back and forth over the bridge to meet each other in secret to hang out and, of course, pull pranks. He also dyes his hair as dark onyx as is allowed, though keeping the ends a dark red, making he and Alexis look like twins quite a bit, when her hair isn't a different color, anyway. He also knows about the lesions from Zane {I think that's his name, please correct me if I'm wrong} and is working to fix them. Zane was his idol and we he found out what happened, he barely could restrain himself. He then enlisted Alexis's help, after her surgery, to help out.
Added Info: He isn't as "surge happy" as Alexis, but he does enjoy getting something done every now and then. He has a small tattoo on his shoulder saying "Rebel" and his eyes change from hazel, to blue, to green often, though that is just natural for him. It was a surge.
{Wow, that took forever...>< Are the profiles OK?}

He smiled at them. He could tell they were starting to feel terrified of him. It was delicious, like a sweet wine. "Wait, do you two mind if I join in? I haven't been able to pull off a decent trick in weeks. I miss the excitement." he said, pulling off the best sad kitten face he had. If the could see his ears, they would be laying at a ninety degree angle to his head, but luckily, his long hair hid them for the moment.

Alexis grinned wickedly as she loaded the small, bright cracklers in her pockets and purse, her eyes a mischievous purple. "This is going to be great," she said to Jakob, turning to face him as he was shoved the cracklers in his pockets as well. He smiled back, a devillish glint in his eyes. She was dressed in a punky skirt with pockets and a dress shirt with a purse on her shoulder.
"I know," Jakob replied. He combed his fingers through his shaggy hair a bit when he was done. Since they'd been caught jacking a hovercar and going joyiding, they'd had to "lay low", so to speak, sticking to smaller tricks.
This one for instance; they were using harmless cracklers that would go off at a specified time. They were going to strategically place them in spots around and in the party area and when they went off, they would surprise, and hopefully scare, the other pretties. It wasn't a great trick, but it was still entertainment. And everyone knows a little entertainment is better than none at all.
Jakob smiled widely again, his hazel eyes dancing. "You ready?" he asked.
"Always," Alexis answered, and they were off, out the door, heading to the informal party.
