Plot
Crash.
That was all you heard before everything went black.
Echoes of police radios still linger in your ears, chatter and cries of worried pedestrians throughout the city. The hurried and panicked screams of a news reporter stands out in the midst of everything, hurried footsteps thumping out in your head.
"It would appear that, right now, here in West Chicago, an L train has crashed. Apparently it seems to have collided with another train, but how or why this has occured is currently unknown to us. Rescue teams are currently working to remove and dislodge the shrapnel and debris, but efforts appear to be mute. It is unknown if there are any survivo-" The news woman is suddenly cut off as a portion of the train explodes, sending a chunk of metal down towards her and abruptly shutting the camera off.
You jolt awake from the crashing sound of the train, relieved to have simply been dreaming. That is, until you realize what once was your bed room was now a cavernous series of jagged tunnels, with hardly any visible light besides the slightly luminescent azure stone the caverns are composed of.
Several others lay around you in a circle, each with their own horrifying injuries. You realize that you, too, have these injuries. Then you also realize on each person's wrist, including your own, lies a small computerized wrist watch.
On a bright red LED display found on each watch, is a large number.
'7'.
Setting
Imagine death as something you can beat. Miraculous recoveries have happened before, with people surviving things thought to be biologically impossible. From burning your skin off, or to severing your spine, it's all been survived before.
Now imagine that it isn't a psychological will to live that gets people through these, but rather something more. A test, if you will.
Each of you have been in a terrible accident. For an unknown reason, two L trains in the western part of Chicago have collided on the railway. You were not one of the survivors.
When you die, you get transported to the Abyss. Those who conquer and escape it achieve a second shot at life; by some miraculous means, they will survive their accident.
Your human bodies are dying, however. Each day in the Abyss is a minute in the real world. Each of you have a wrist-watch detailing how long they have to escape the abyss; 7 days.
With nothing but the mangled visage of your human bodies, you set out to escape the Abyss. Some have done it, it's true.
But even if you manage to come back...
What price will you have to pay?
Rules
No romance. You're essentially zombies, so that'd be gross.
No powers. Some exceptions apply, as if you don't have legs than you can obviously fit under small spaces.
No Mary Sues. This should be obvious.
No godmodding. YES, THERE ARE THINGS THAT CAN KILL YOU. Er, double-kill you.
Don't time-skip without my permission. Time is precious, especially in the Abyss.
This is a mini RP. Thus, it is a smaller RP designed for only a certain number of pages. Will is designed for 75 pages, and so don't expect the level of writing found in my regular work.
And finally, normal ROBLOX rules.

Character Sheet

Name: Andrew Travis Mills
Gender: Male

Biography: Andrew had slept in on the first day at his new school. Instead of running there, his mother told him to catch the train there, which he did and...yeah...poor Andrew ;-;
Other: Andrew will usually be calm, as from all the video games he has played, this looks like a child toy commercial. He doesn't care that he lost his arm, considering he watched Mad Max. |

Name: Matthew E. Woodstock
Gender: Male
Appearance: Matthew well Matthew was quite of the nerd species. His facial features didn't offer that much from the norm besides a squarish round jaw that was submerged under a thick layer of stubble that was brown in pigmentation. I guess this went well with his hair, which clung to his neck and brushed his eyelids, oh I almost forgot to say it was brown in pigmentation as-well. His eyes were by-far his most remarkable feature, featuring a dazzling emerald green coloration rimmed by crimson-red. To bad they are covered by his bulky glasses..
His body type was that of an average athletic person, a light muscular build. His height is well.. disapointing to say the least, standing only at 5.6ft tall.
Items: His cracked touchscreen tablet
Biography: [T/B/R]
Other: I have to go in a sec so sorry for the bad C.S.. |

Character Sheet
Name: Vincent Pistone
Gender: Male
Appearance: Fairly average in height and weight, but pushing towards the larger side, at 5'11 and 190. The skin remaining unbloodied or burnt is a lighter tone and his build would have once been considered athletic. His jet black hair was once large, curly and styled into a sort of 80s mullet of sorts with a white bandana tied around it but is now heavily burnt and choppy and the once white bandana has been nearly turned completely red.
His face is squared with a larger lip, a sharp nose and wide-set eyes but the whole front of his face was scorched to the bone, slowly shifting into blackened burnt skin a little past his ears. His sunglasses are cracked and bent, having been in one of his jacket pockets, he transferred them to his skeletal face upon seeing what had happened to him.
At the time of his death, he was wearing a black leather studded jacket with small spikes on the shoulders, a white T, dark-wash denim jeans with the cuffs rolled up and black biking boots. His pants are full of scorch marks and burn holes, revealing hunks of blackened or heavily burnt skin. The white t-shirt is nearly completely red with several large tears in it visible as Vincent only zips the jacket about half way. His prized jacket has several burn holes in it and the ends are heavily ripped and frayed but that is the good part.
His jacket and torso are full of various sized hunks of jagged steel, some piercing out the back and a couple having entered into his back with the black leather now shining from the crimson dousing it. Had he not been dead he would have considered it a possible new trend, his 'punk' looking jacket now all the more metal in his view.
Items: A black guitar pick, a medium sized 8" italian stiletto, and possibly his guitar if it had even partially survived the wreck.
Biography: Vincent was an up-and-coming musician in a band that specialized in hard rock and light metal, having gathered a fairly sized following in their home city and were close to getting their first record produced by a small-time company. He was considered a very good guitar playing before his demise, sadly having sat near the front of the train. He was actually on his way to a band-meeting to discuss the record deal when his life had been ended abruptly.

(I'm gonna rewrite it to make try and make it as partially good as Gavin's.)
Character Sheet
Name: Alice MacGrunn (It's a unisex name.)
Gender: Male.
Appearance: Alice is a rather short boy for his age, touching 4'10" and growing no more, his weight however was 83 lbs, gave him the appearance of a sickly boy, when in fact he was healthy for the most part, that was until he died, of course. His skin color was unaffected by the crash. His hair sunset red however, used to be tied neatly in a ponytail, flowing gently down to his lower back. Now, the ponytail was burned only a small portion remained.
Alice's eyes were two huge, vibrant, green orbs of joy. Even coming from a where he came from Alice learned to love life, always smiling and happy. His thin lips always curled at the end in a slick smile. His nose was bent in the middle, from being broke and never fixed correctly.
When he left home he was wearing a long sleeved white v-neck that is rolled up to his forearm, while his pants were cut cargo pants stopping just below the knee, where his socks began so none of his skin showed. His shoes were hightops, matching the socks.
He died by getting pierced through the middle of his chest by a steel pole used for holding on when the seats were taken. His right eye also came out of his socket.
Items: Nothing but a pen.
Biography: Alice is only 12, he was brought up in a horrible neighborhood, his mother died when he was younger and his father barely managed to support them with his job, also balancing that his father was an alcoholic. Tired of wasting his life away, and wanting to become something greater Alice set off, catching the first train he could, unfortunately.

Name: Lance Dali Gender: Female Appearance: Her injuries weren't bad, she would say. She has a bone sticking out to the side above her knee, and her foot completely off. Also, she had large burn marks on her arms, from the explosion. She wants to cut everything off her torso and just DO DA FLOP. But nope. Her eyes are dark blue, and her shirt is black with "Like A BOSS" in white on it. Her shorts are a pale gray, and about a inch below is where her bone starts to stick out. On her foot that isn't gone, she has galaxy sneakers with white laces. Items: Tiny dragon key-chain Biography: Lance's life was what she called normal, for a girl that was bullied for having a boy name. But all of her life she would just laugh it off, and take it as a complement. She liked having the name "Lance", it reminded her of dragons, her favorite animal. In fifth grade, she was bullied all day everyday. She kept to her plan of just laughing it off. Then, she turned out to have the most success in her class, which proves laughing and smiling is good for your health :D (Nononono MLP IS INVADINGGGGGG!!!!!!) (Meh, do I need more to it?) Other: (None) |
