Story-
"Welcome, to Jorge Jacob's Asylum for the Gifted," a female computerized voice said through the floating orb following your group. Around you is a large dome, probably thirty feet or so in radius, with most of the dome past ten feet made of bulletproof glass. The wall painted plain white, and the floor of white tile. "You may be wondering what those bands on your wrists and ankles are. The short definition would be, they suppress your abilities."
"Follow me, and we will get you marked with your number." It led them through to a terminal. "Set your palm on the indicated area, here," it floats over and points with its camera to a hollow cube on top of the terminal pole with a basic hand print on the bottom. "It will scan your palm and stamp an identification number on your wrist." All participants did so, and pushed through the terminal after scanning, one by one.
It then led them through a door at the other side of the dome, and on a basic tour of the facility, starting with the restrooms right by that door and inquiring if anyone needed to use it, through to a hallway of several different doors explained to go into halls of bedrooms with two bunk-beds per room, and ten bed rooms per hall(five on one side, five on the other), with men's on the left side halls and women's on the right, also indicated by a sign of a male figure over each door to men's rooms and a female figure over each door to women's rooms.
It then led them to the cafeteria, bustling with people. "As you can see, its time for lunch for most of the inmates. Lunch starts at twelve o' clock sharp and continues to one o' clock. Each inmate will get a special amount and special type of food per person. Now, have lunch, socialize with other humans, and I will be back very soon to continue your tour."
Plot-
People and animals, as they always have, are evolving. Animals are past most of their evolution but humans have only grown weak through their laziness and fear. But now things have changed and nature is taking it upon itself to force it.
Superhumans randomly started popping up all over the globe. Of course, as humans are, they freaked out. They were afraid at something unknown and above them. So what did they turn to? Technology. They started working on something to "cure" them, but could only suppress them. So they rounded all they could get up and took them off to prisons.
Due to protesters and a group known as the "Equalists" rioting about their rights to live fairly and not be taken prisoner, many governments were forced to give them at least better housing and so they made asylums all over the world for them and made them look humane. In a sense, they were, even if the superhumans were being taken against their will.
Many Equalists still riot and try to conduct raids to release superhumans, and it sometimes works, but many times it only ends in a blood bath.
Rules-
-No powerplaying, metagaming, etc.(Knowing things you shouldn't, doing things you can't, generally being godlike) -Keep language to a minimum. I know you can because ROBLOX censorship is terrible, but I don't want you cursing as much as you can because you can. -Disobey ROBLOX rules at your own risk. -If you have an argument or concern, work it out or message and admin, don't ruin the roleplay with your bickering. -Don't be a jerk, and maybe the last rule will never happen. -Things can be mildly unrealistic, hence superpowers, but don't just make up whatever you want. -Take constructive criticism, and don't get mad about it. -Don't give destructive criticism.
Disobeying these rules will result in you being warned, then suspended(technically just ignored but you get the point).
Character Sheet-
Name: Age: Appearance: Abilities: Biography(Optional): *Personal Items: Other:
Additional notes-
*Simple items from your life- a photograph, a book, glasses, etc.
If your abilities morph you, the different features will return to a baby-like skin when the ability-suppressor bracelet is attached. So if you have a giant metal spike coming out of your forehead, it will morph into normal baby-like skin from having not been there before. If you did however have skin there, it would stay the same.

P.S.
You will get your personal items later in the roleplay, after the tour.
P.P.S.
Don't say "Marked" or I swear I will just decline every CS you make... just make a CS or leave! Anyone that posted it before this I'll let slide.
My CS:
Name: Cornelius "Cory" Bard Age: 14 Appearance: Light-blonde, medium-length, generally messy hair, and green eyes, Cory stands at 5'3" and weighing approximately 100 lb., he's generally scrawny for his height making him look lanky.
Abilities: Technology Control Cornelius can get inside technology within his vision with his mind like a virus, but as the virus he is during it he can also get pushed out of it with a firewall or antivirus protection. When using this ability, he's devoid of the outside world besides sounds. He can't feel or see unless through a camera or sensory machine of some sort. When using his abilities, his eyes become a lighter, neon-hue of green, and lines spread out of them like a circuit.
Biography(Optional): Cornelius was born a mute, not being able to make a sound out of his mouth, and was just five when he discovered his powers. He just thought it normal, not knowing much of superhumans at the time, and became a wiz-kid/nerd with his parents simply assuming it was because he was a mute and it was a way to communicate with people without speaking.
His parents and only sister- his only sibling - finally learned of his abilities themselves when he was ten, and tried to keep him a secret. Cory got an MP3 player that he always kept with him and used it to speak when nobody but his parents were around. However, eventually, and inevitably, someone found out and reported it to the authorities and that night a stealth raid was set on his house, where they snuck into his room, covered his mouth to keep him from screaming(even though he couldn't if he wanted to), and subdued him with a suppressor. They then took him to a black van, and were closing the door as his parents came bursting out of the door in their night clothes, his mother crying and his father yelling his name as some of the men stopped them in their tracks and wouldn't let them pass, saying something to them.
The next day he woke up in a white tee-shirt and black sweat pants, and looked around to see a large white dome with a skylight, and an orb that was speaking. He knew what the bracelets they put on him were, but he tried to take control of the orb anyway. Of course, it didn't work.
*Personal Items: MP3 player
Photograph from home of him and his sister with their parents on either side of them, behind them a nice fireplace standing on a red-brown carpet and a tan wall behind them.

Can I play as an Equalist, or no? What is the format of the identification numbers? Also, I can't stop thinking of the title as J.J. Abrams' Asylum for the Gifted instead of the actual one. Please help me.

Equalists I was thinking wouldn't come in for awhile, and I was thinking them more along the lines of the Asylum going on lockdown and everyone being escorted to say, a bunker, while security dispatched of them or something of the sort. Maybe they'd be released, maybe they won't, maybe some will and others will be contained... not really sure but it wasn't gonna be much of a player-thing, just a scenario.
The identification numbers in my mind essentially had small print, with one number essentially the size of text here, maybe a bit smaller, and have 10 digits printed just below the wrist on the bottom side. I never really went into detail with a lot of this because I just wanted a lot of it to be left to the imagination, but I can see how the ID numbers would probably be needed.
As for thinking J.J. Abrams'... well, you just have a problem and should probably go see a shrink.

Sorry, I meant 5 digits... not sure why I said 10. So, for example, 12345 could be an ID number.

| I see. But if it DID read J.J. Abrams' whatever, just imagine the amount of lens flares. |

What do you mean destruction? Destruction of what? Just combustion of anything, or a destructive ability(fire perhaps), or destruction of lemons?...
You'll have to be more descriptive if I'm to judge it.

| Any nonliving object can be destroyed either via touch or by shooting a purpleish tansluscent energy (except diamons). If it hits sometyhing living it will simply knock it back and destroy dead cells like the outer layer of skin, clothes, hair, etc. |

| Also, different levels of breaking, like making things fall apart to cracking them to vaporizing to dust, which wear out the user the more intense the effect. |

Sure, I figure if the bracelets can stop powers, they can subdue them to, so any testing they might do on you could be lessened to assure you don't break through the building or something. Could be like cyclops, super-strong ability being weakened by science.
