![]() The Human World is Dead The Bigger Picture Plot One of the main laboratories in the race to save the world has made a secret breakthrough, without telling anyone outside of their main circle and leaving even the interns who also work along side them out in the cold. What if they could place the souls of humans within dolls, which never breathe or consume food or water? Which do not require the gas guzzlers, the large planes, the buses, and all the other things that seem to kill off the planet bit by bit? Well, somehow they found a way and are willing to test it out on... the interns. The main scientists want to keep it as contained as possible as it's a dry run to make sure all ends well. As a cover, they state that everyone within the facinity is required to have DNA samplings taken from them as a way to further their research. Naturally, for the sake of science, everyone does as needed, along with the interns, and unbenownst to them- the dna taken is used in an experiment that will change their lives forever. The plan was to construct a hypothetical, controlled environment within the lab before initiating the transfer from human to doll but suddenly, catastrophe falls as time begins to tick further and further away. The end of the human world is coming to an end and as a last ditch effort, and a hopeful look to the future that no longer belongs to the human race, the main scientists initiate the machine that will transfer the souls and essence of a human being into selected dolls that look similar to who the interns 'used' to be. As the end comes and people are dying off, the interns all black out at the same time in what they believe to be a reaction to a lack of oxygen. They believe they have died along with the others, only to open their eyes to a post-apocalyptical earth in the bodies of strange little dolls that must make their way, find survivors and the machine, and find a way to somehow recreate the experiment to save whatever is left of humanity by turning them into the new species: Dolls.

Name: Asuka Chiharu Age: 22 Gender: Female Background: Asuka has always been fascinated by science...even when she was a little girl. She enjoyed doing experiments and finding scientific ways to help others and herself. Although her parents did not like the idea of Asuka becoming a scientist, she didn't let them get in her way. She continued pursuing her dream of becoming one through her life. When an opportunity to help science comes to Asuka, she immediately accepts it, and gives them her DNA sampling. Unfortunately, she had no idea about what would happen to her... Appearance: Asuka Anything else? Nope! |

Name: Naomi Peterson Age: 18 yrs old Gender: Female Personality: Quiet, Caring, Trustworthy, Can be Rude at times... Background: Truthfully, Naomi was kind of pulled into this. Her father was always disappointed in her, except if she gave away something for a good cause. All she wants is to make her dad happy, so of course she'll do anything for him. For some reason, He thought that the little science project going on down the road was a good cause. So, she gave away dome of her DNA-with her father behind her at all times. After that, nothing really happened, and she thought that was how it was going to stay. Little did she know that nothing wasn't ever going to happen. Appearance: Naomi Anything else? umm... she tinkers a lot. She loves to create little machines that work sort of with the same mechanics as a clock. |

Name: Cary Aiden Age: 23 Gender: Female Personality: Cary can be quite sarcastic at times and plays highly on her wit to get her through life. She doesn’t take kindly to insults, horseplay, or lies, especially when she’s determined to get something done. She is an intellectual, reading and studying like a loon. However, don’t be fooled as she has her fun side. Like her hair, she can be wild and fun, enjoying the little things in life. She’s not materialistic, finding joy in simplicity (except for those complex experiments and data analysis’ her bosses give her at work). She enjoys solving problems pertaining to science and anything logical. When it comes to personal problems, she’s at an utter loss. Background: Cary grew up in a household of three little sisters and two older brothers with a single mother trying hard to raise them all after her father’s mysterious disappearance. With little sisters constantly whining about the most mundane things, Cary grew up with an understanding that petty things and actions never get you anywhere in life. She was dedicated, protected but also encouraged by her older brothers, and soon entered a double major in chemistry and biological processes. She was a science geek from the exact time of birth so this came as no surprise to anyone. Cary quickly found her foot in the door of a huge opportunity and shimmied her way into an interning job at one of the most prominent laboratories as the world was coming to its climactic point in the fight between man and nature. She knew that whatever the main scientists flung at her was crucial, no matter how small it seemed and worked her hardest to make a contribution. When they came around asking for samples of DNA, she eagerly gave them what was needed. She knew the clock was ticking and knew far too well that it was a matter of life and death after two of her youngest sisters, age eight and ten, died from sickness relating to the crucial condition and instability of mother nature. Never did she think that that small sample would make her one of the world’s only hopes. Appearance:) Human Doll Anything else? Sucks at directions and is creeped out by clowns and porcelain dolls. |

Sounds fun. EDIT: I'll make a character at some time... Maybe tomorrow if not tonight. Also...I don't mean to be crude or anything, but they are dolls, so I was wondering...would a male have a penis? If not I am going to have fun with that little fact. ![]() My character WILL freak out. Edited by Joey!, January 13, 2011, 1:11 am.

HAHA! I was WAITING for someone to ask that! That's why in the rules I stated that this rp can't really get too explicit since... they're dolls and have nothin', and I mean NOTHIN', down below ;) EDIT: madjack, there's an edit button on each of your posts so you can go in and fix stuff within your profile ;) Edited by Wicked, January 13, 2011, 3:45 am.

They can't. That's the sucky part for them. Humans have to suffer somehow for what they've done to the earth so now, they can't reproduce. However, they live until, for some odd reason, they shatter. So, in a way, they don't need to reproduce though some may want to. It's kind of their punishment. I could, though, find some magical way to give them like... reproducing organs later on in the game Maybe the machine wasn't done with it's work and is still trying to manifest "human" into dolls. I can play around with that concept and see where it goes from there. I've actually been thinking about the many things that could happen, since the interns were supposed to be the trial run. There could be mutations the machine is still causing and somehow, they start growing or their fake bodies start becoming more like the human anatomy with intestines, a heart, etc. Right now, the dolls are just vessels with souls inside them.

Okay. I just asked because I figured they could die/shatter; therefore, if they couldn't reproduce then the human race is screwed. |

Name: Seth McElroy Age: 20 Gender: Male Background: Seth grew up in a relatively quiet residence. His two younger brothers made things annoying, but he lived. The pollution and crowded population really bugged him. To be honest, things would be done way differently had he been able to run things his way. He was a well-rounded student who was best at math and science. He liked to take things apart just to see what made them tick. Now, he couldn't always put it back together again, but he still enjoyed it. It may seem that he had ADHD, but he just enjoyed doing things with his hands and he couldn't stay still! Video-games were beneficial when putting up with his little obsession and he could be seen carrying a hand-held system around often. This job seemed like a good way for some extra money, and maybe he could learn a little more about science. Appearance Anything else? Seth enjoyed mythology. Science, mythology, and magic were things that appealed to him. (Science fiction fit there too.) Anything that was out of the ordinary made him happy. |

;) That just adds to their problems. Buwahahahaha. Anywho, I'm most likely going to make it so that further down the road, they experience some changes and start morphing into a more human-like being. Kinda like a symbol for them finding themselves through all the trials they'll go through to find the machine ;D Joey!

Name: Amelia (Mils, Millie) Lacie Tyler Age: Twenty Four Gender: Female Background: Millie grew up with her father, the CEO of a major oil production company, earning millions by the month. He was never the type to push his daughter in the direction he had gone and was a very supportive father. They were a rich family, but Millie was by no means a spoilt, rich kid. Granted, she got a top notch education that cost a pretty penny but with money comes privilege and her father was not just going to deny her this privilege. However, she was taught from a young age how to save money, how to get the best deals, how to handle money. And she was never the child that got something just because she asked for it. From the time Millie could support her own head, the child was fascinated by the stars, all those celestial objects, the idea of the ever-expanding universe, the millions of galaxy and the planets. Once she got older, she began to gain a vivid interest in science, and particularly physics. It was at age twelve, having done extensive research on the subject, that Millie decided she was going to be an astrophysicist – calculating luminosity, density, temperature and chemical composite of the stars. Space was absolutely fascinating to her. She worked hard in high school, gaining excellent grades and all A’s in the science departments – with outstanding results in Physics. She went on to university, and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Astrophysics before buckling down and gaining her Master’s Degree as well. To earn some extra money and to gain some work experience, despite the work’s lack of a crucial role in her career, she worked as an intern in a laboratory, giving some of her DNA to the facility upon request. She had begun her PhD, when the apocalypse began. Human Doll Anything else? She enjoys writing fiction in her spare time. |
