Staff Applications are now up! It's about time. :B
I've also done some layout shifting: The chatbox is now at the bottom of the forum, and a staff list will be on the top in its place.:B
I'm gonna try to bring this place back up some. Let's hope for the best.

Two NPCs have been added to 5. People and Organizations. Locke Harper is the fairly optomistic President and founder of the Esper Coaltion, while Nicholas Hobbes is the strict and serious Chief of the Vertex Police. Both are well known in the city, and both are named after old world philosophers. Have fun reading :D

Midnight, everyone should be asleep by now. Amras thought to himself, being careful not to wake anyone. He wanted to make sure he had everything he would need and began to take a mental catalog Rope, check. Backpack, check. Food and water, check. Clothes, check. Watch, he took a watch from a nearby table and put it on. check. The boy packed all the things he needed in his backpack and began to carefully navigate the close knit cots of the orphanage he had called home for so long. Finally, the window to the alleys was in sight, as well as his freedom. Once he had tied his rope to a bedpost near the window he began repelling down the wall to the alley below. Freedom at last! he thought to himself as he landed and began walking down the dark alley and into the streets.

The one thing Richard Gatz hated most about his life was the irony. He was afraid of the dark, because of this his powers manifested themselves as the ability to generate light; and because of THAT he often found himself being assigned to duties that involved darkness. He hated irony, but not more than he liked helping the Esper coalition. Thus, he found himself navigating the night time streets, fist glowing, making sure nothing terrible was going on.

Unfortunately Dick was always unlucky enough to find trouble. This time the trouble was what appeared to be an underage kid out much later than he should be. Still, it wasn't the worst possible situation and he'd had been given instructions on how to handle things like this.

"You there, stop!" he shouted. Hopefully he'd stop, otherwise it'd end up being a foot chase down night time streets. Dick really didn't want to have to chase someone down night time streets.

Amras flinched as he heard the voice. Crap! was all he could think as he turned around to face whoever had seen him, meanwhile preparing to create a barrier in case he needed to attack or defend. "What seems to be the problem?" He asked, trying to sound as innocent as possible, while looking for any possible ways to escape.

Saria had been walking around at night, in a black skirt and red T-shirt since he favorate clothes were in the wash, after the encounter with the demon Saria had in the Catacombs. She had been walking around when she heard someone shout. At first she thought it was some one was shouting to her but Saria noticed that it wasn't.

She found the source of the sound and saw it was a boy and a guy who seemed to glowing. Saria's eyes widened as she realized the glowing guy was a mutant and the last thing Saria wanted was for anyone else to find out about her powers.

Dick breathed a sigh of relief when the boy didn't run. That meant this would be easy, well, as easy as dealing with a teenager out late at night can be. He stopped for a second to consider his words before slowly approaching the boy.

"Do you realize how late it is?" He asked, holding his glowing fist higher to shed more light on the boys features, "You do realize there are curfew laws?" Dick stared at the boy; at best this would be some teenagers who's first time ti was sneaking out and would go quietly back home without causing any problems. At the worst, it would be a mutant hater who would try and pick a fight with him which could only end badly for Dick. No matter the circumstances, the media would be all over the rumor of an 'unprovoked mutant attack'.

"Well?"

Amras thought before answering. "Yes sir, I do realize." he began "But I don't intend to go back." With this he ran at the man, jumping just before he was within his reach. While in the air, he quickly created a barrier to use as a platform and jumped off of it. Once he had landed Amras began to run towards a crowded part of the street. On his way there he noticed Saria. "You had better get out of here!" He called as he went past her and into the street.

Saria's eyes widened as the boy noticed her but the purple eyed girl took his adivce and started to run, since it was obvious the glowing man would know that she was there since the boy shouted it out.

Dick found himself completely caught off guard by the young boys sudden display of powers. This boy wasn't a mutant hater, the boy was a mutant himself. And that mutant boy had just displayed the ability to leap over dick and run towards the streets. This meant a chase, something dick hated doing. Considering the boy had just shown acrobatic abilities, Dick was gonna have ah ard time.

Dick turned both his fists to a flashlight-like glow and took off running. Dick had no idea who the boy was or what he wasn't going back to, but dick had a responsibility to find him.

"STOP!" he yelled after him as he rushed passed a young girl. Dick then stopped as he saw the young boy vanish into the darkness. The boy had shouted something to the girl as he ran away and that meant talking to her was probably a better idea then going on some wild goose chase.

"Excuse me miss," He said to the girl, "but you wouldn't happen to know that boy would you?" Once again he raised his glowing fist above his head to get a better look at her face. She seemed normal, except her eyes were purple. Strange, but not the strangest thing dick had ever seen.
