Everyone knew it was only a matter of time before another world war started. Tensions had been high between countries for years. Peace negotiations faded into the background. Rumours and whispers began.
With technology advancing at the rate it was, governments pulled money from things like foreign aid and education and gave it to weapons research and manufacturing instead.
But powerful new weapons were nothing without the right people to wield them.
So, scientists began to experiment on humans, trying to create the perfect super-soldier. After much trial and error, they found that a specific type of person was the ideal candidate for experimentation.
Of course, all of this was extremely illegal, so the scientists couldn’t just ask members of the public to volunteer. Instead, they had potential candidates “arrested” and then taken to their labs.
And so, on the 17th of September 2043 at 3:18 am, the first super-soldier was created, named "subject 0018".
Characters needed:
- the first super-soldier, subject 0018 ( @Qxeenscryche )
- the leader of the scientific research team ( @abrocadabruh )
- the second-in-command of the scientific research team ( PERSON NEEDED )
- 3-4 other scientists in the research team ( @"That_Spunky_Little_Parakeet (In honor of my baby Marbles)" ))
- 2-3 test subjects ( @Carrots @PeaceWillWin-FearWillLose @shurikenbadasswolf13 @Bunny )
- a corrupt government official/politician/leader who is overseeing the whole thing ( Ileana )
(9-11 total)
Rules:
- keep it PG
- keep swearing to a minimum, please
- no racist/sexist/LGBT+ phobic slurs/comments
- have characters with different morals, please! The “antagonist who is actually kinda good” thing is really common, and it gets boring if every character is the same.
- no Mary Sues, please.

Name: Sloan Alexander
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Role (scientist, test subject, etc.): test subject 0020
Species (your characters don't have to be human!): human they think
Powers/Abilities: Enhanced sight; can see through walls, heat signatures, and see microscopic cells at will, though he sees normal most of the time.

Appearance: Long and shaggy chestnut brown hair, fair skin, eyes with no irises or pupils; just all plain white, 5'11, long eyelashes, needle scars up and down his forearm.
Backstory: He was found abandoned on the doorstep of a fire station and taken to an orphanage, he was then taken into a hospital once they saw his eyes, and the scientists and others tried to hide it from the public; as it looked like they were lying about how the eye works and whether or not he was completely human. He's spent the largest portion of his life in different research facilities studying his blood, dna, and eyes, so he doesn't know much about the outside world.
Other (Hogwarts house, glasses or no, etc.): They made him customized coloured contact lenses which he refuses to wear.
((Just letting everyone know, there are no more spots available for "test subject" characters.))
(I can try and be the corrupted leader person, not sure how well it will go, but I can do my best.)
