2024
A science lab exploded.
Four scientists were killed in the explosion, and the remaining three found that numerous chemicals had spilled into a container and somehow survived the explosion. Upon testing the mixture, they identified the chemicals and recreated it. The scientists tried to find out what the solution did by testing it on a rat, but nothing happened. They weren't sure what to do with the chemicals, but then one of them had an idea:
What would happen if they mixed animal DNA with the chemicals?
They mixed lizard DNA--that being what was on hand right then--with their chemical solution, but before they could test it on the rat, it splashed back onto two of the scientists. They immediately mutated into strange, lizardlike creatures. Still vaguely humanoid, they had rough scaly skin, small sharp teeth, hooked claws, and tails. The remaining scientist, instead of being terrified, was fascinated by the mutation. Unfortunately, he was very greedy, and instead of sharing his discovery with others, he killed the mutant scientists, and kept the secret to himself. Over the next few years, the lone scientist experimented with his chemicals, testing them on human victims instead of animals, and becoming ever greedier and more twisted in the process. Eventually, for no specific reason, he created a huge amount of his mutation chemical, and combined it with DNA from hundreds of animals.
~~~
2027
The apocalypse.
The lone scientist, having killed hundreds of animals for their DNA, created an enormous bomb, filled with enough mutation chemicals to spread across the entire continent. When he set it off, he was killed in the initial explosion, but thousands of people were mutated across North America. The chemicals somehow seeped into the ocean, and over the years, the mutation spread over the entire planet.
~~~
2030
The wasteland.
For three years now, the world has been a barren wasteland, only the strongest and the cleverest surviving, searching for the few oasisis remaining in the endless deserts. The endless search for water has driven many mad, adding to the dangers. But now, a strange sickness is spreading, traveling from person to person at an alarming, almost impossible rate. The illness is caused by traces of the mutation chemicals remaining in the water, and the only cure lies in the minerals of the oasis waters. To save the mutants, a select few mutants with strange and unique abilities must find each other, travel to the oasis, and find the cure. These mutants have never met each other however, and the hardship they have encountered has hardened them, to the point of hostility rising to impossible heights. They must overcome their misgivings and travel the wasteland, dodging insane mutants and sickness, to reach their goal. But, if they catch the sickness, they will slowly weaken, and eventually they will die.

Karen~
I watch Silvia curiously as she skitters out of camp, but after a moment or two, my thoughts drift slightly. Okay, more than slightly. Some of the young mutants here remind me of my little sister. She was eleven, I remember, when the mutant bomb went off, and now she would be fourteen, if she were alive. A pang of grief shakes me, and I lean against a rock, losing myself in memory until Silvia comes back, leading a strange, winged mutant.
@Umi, I was thinking that when Karen and Zotiyac meet, they should at first not remember each other, but eventually certain things click, and yknow. Whaddya think?
(September 19, 2019 - 11:39 am)
@Nyx | Sure! That would be perfect for them to meet unexpectedly, and not remember each other. I’ll think of some ideas for Zotiyac to remember Karen.

Sorry I haven't posted recently - school has been hectic, but I'll try to post soon.
@Moonlight - I like the idea of having them be like older brothers to Liz, good idea! ;D
(September 26, 2019 - 9:28 pm)
I apologize for forgetting about this!! I will just slide back in this. @Sorrelshine I'm glad you like the idea!
~Liz
There was a great comotion that night and I of course slept through it. Then I woke up to the sunlight blinding me. I stand up insticltivley grabbing for my spear. Then I remember the journey and the other mutants.
Don't trust them. You can't trust anyone.
I walk over to where the other mutants seem to be gathering. Silvia comes in with a bat mutant. Naholi, Sebastian, and Kira come over with a new mutant. hold my spear out not backing down.
They came to kill you. Don't trust them.
"A-are they sane?" i ask
"I believe so, Calm down." Silvia says to me.
"Who a-are you a-anyway?" I ask the bat mutant and the deer mutant.
Don't believe them. They lie.
"I am Noma" the bat like one says smiling "I mean you all no harm. I was following a rouge pack of mutants to make sure they didn't come to my camp."
He is lying he led them here.
I shake my head trying to get the thoughts out of my head. SOmeone comes up beside me and when I look it's the Fennec fox mutant. Ari, I think is his name.
"Liz, I think they are okay." He says softly.
They are going to trick you. Beware.
"I'm Wish!" the deer mutant says "DOn't worry I'm not crazy! I used to live by Sebastin and Naho!"
To cheerful. She hides secrets.
I nod silently too afraid to talk. The thoughts have been coming up since yesterday they only started being loud today. I try to push them away but I can't. It might be the sickness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(September 29, 2019 - 9:33 am)
Ari rose silently, his fox ears twitching, moving toward the commotion. The little lion girl, Liz, was there, looking terrified. Silvia was there too, looking suspiciously at a stranger mutant. He seemed bat-like, with short brown fur, bat eats and large red eyes. He stalked up silently behind them, listening. “Who a-are you a-anyway?” Liz was asking. “I am Noma,” bat-boy replied, smiling. His teeth were like needles. Ari stepped up beside the lion-girl. “Liz, I think they’re okay.” he told her softly, though he still stayed alert. “I’m Wish!” the deer-mutant chirped. “Don’t worry I’m not crazy! I used to live by Sebastian and Neho!” Ari raised an eyebrow at her. He didn’t like how cheerful she was. In a world like this, nobody should be that happy all the time. He’d keep an eye on these newcomers. “So,” Noma started. “Why are you all out here in the desert, nowhere near any camps?” Ari exchanged a wary glance with Silvia. “None of your concern,” Ari replied, his tone carefully guarded. He glanced at the sky. It was past dawn, but not by much; they should be moving soon. He slipped his staff from over his shoulder and leaned on it, looking pointedly at the sky. Namir walked up behind him, studying the scene. Ari made a few rapid signs with his free hand, briefly telling his friend what was going on in their own adapted sign language. The leopard nodded. Want me to go wake everyone up? He signed back. Ari allowed a small smile to creep across his face. Feel free to surprise them a little. Namir snickered and jogged off. “What was that all about?” Sebastian asked. “Nothing. He offered to go wake everyone up.” Ari replied innocently. “We should move as soon as possible. There’s an oasis I know a few hours from here.” Sebatian shrugged. His gold eyes looked distracted. “Ok. I’ll go…” He made a vague gesture with his hand and wandered off. Noma paused. “Mind if I tag along? I’d like to see what you’re trying to do here.” Ari hesitated. “If you like, I guess.” He still didn’t trust the bat, but he didn’t really trust any of them yet, so why not? He heard yelps of surprise from the camp. “What’s that all about?” Silvia asked suspiciously. Ari couldn’t help grinning. “Oh, nothing. I imagine it’s rather jarring to wake up with a snarling leopard in your face.” With that, staff in hand, he strode away.
~~~
Well, that was interesting. Seems like Ari might have a tendency towards a natural leader. (wink wink) I figure Thomas (my other character who hasn’t come up at all yet) will be at the oasis Ari mentioned. And it probably would be a bit of a shock to wake up with a leopard in your face, don’t you think? hehehehe…..

Kira~~~
I knew something was coming, I just didn't know what. The buzzing in my head had started up again, which meant that I should be careful. So when I felt something hovering over me, I did the natural thing, I lunged up and punched it. Then I saw who it was and felt instatly sorry.
"OH my goodness! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to punch you."
The leopold guy just glared at me and stalked off. I wandered over to the exit while everyone else was woken up. I saw a strange bat mutant but wasn't too concered, I was wondering when he would arrive and I supose sooner is better than never. I amuse myself by making patterns across my skin, while everyone gathers and packs up camp.
"OK, I know of an oaisis a few hours from here, we should head that way." the fennec fox guy, Ari, says.
I frown, I know about that oaisis and it's in the oposite direction we should be going. But I supose everyone needs to fill up their water canteens, and it's really the closest one. And then we take off, trudging through the hot desert to our next destination.

Logan~
I end up walking by Silvia, Noma, and Karen. None of them are paying attention to me. Silvia is staring across the group to Ari and Namir, for some reason, and Karen seems turned in on herself. She bumps into me time and time again, each time mubling a distracted apology and moving off, which isn't like her. I wonder once again what her past is.
(October 1, 2019 - 10:35 am)
OH GOSH I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THIS!
I'll post soon!
(October 1, 2019 - 10:52 pm)
Sorry I haven't posted recently! I'm going to make another charrie now~!
~~~~~~~~~~~
Name: Monarch (M, Mon, or Arch for short.)
Age: Monarch doesn't have an age. She appears to look like an 18 year old.
Gender: Female
Mutation: Butterfly
Weapon (s): Three small daggers, and a pistol.
Personality: Monarch is smart. She loves fighting and sparring for fun. Although, she can be childish at times, but she's serious around other people. She loosens up only when she's with Zotiyac. She jumps to conclusions quite fast, but most of the time she's quiet. She only talks when she's around Zotiyac.
Appearance: Monarch wears a black cropped shirt, sleeveless. She wears baggy shorts that have many rips in them. Monarch has a few cuts and bruises on her arms. She hides her arms with a hoodie that's black. She wears knee-high black socks with combat boots. She wears small, fingerless gloves. Her eyes are a really dark brown, almost black. She has small, white specks on her face. Monarch hides her face with a worn-out bandana. Her hair is a nice, firery orange. In her hair, there's small streaks of black around her scalp. She wears a belt with a huge pouch carrying her daggers and pistol. She wears a ripped cape to hide her butterfly wings.
Special Powers/Abilities: She can easily fly.
Background: Zotiyac is like a younger sister to Arch. Arch was always taking care of Zotiyac. Arch never knew her family well, and so, Zo was Arch's "family".
Other: Monarch trusts no one, but Zo. You'll earn her trust... eventually. She's going to stay single.

Noma~
I walked with the spider mutant Silva and the two wolf mutants, Karen and Logan. It was a little past noon, the sun and its reflection in the sands so bright that I had to close my eyes. Not that it mattered, since I see with my echolocation, but it was annoying. "This is why I don't go out during the day," I muttered to myself. But despite it being my least-favorite time of day, I would rather try and learn about this group of mutants than fly ahead to the oasis and nap until they got there. Based on their path, they would head toward Green Valley after filling up at this oasis. I would like to at least know what their goal is before they reached my settlement. "Silva, could I ask you a question?" I asked. "I know that trust is scarce around here, but could you tell me what you're looking for? If I knew, I'd be able to help you. Green Valley is relatively welcoming for a settlement, so we'd be happy to help if its a good cause. But we can't help if you don't tell me what you're up to." I didn't add the rest of my thought: and if you have more dangerous intentions, I need to stop you now, before you reach Green Valley.

Silvia~
I hesitate before answering Noma. "We're trying to find a cure for the sickness. You know about the sickness, right?"
(October 4, 2019 - 11:28 am)
Noma~
"I do," I said, sighing in relief. "That's a noble goal, though I'm not sure how possible it is. I'm sorry if I came off as pushy, but ... the people in my settlement, they rely on me to protect them. I didn't want to chance anything. There's so few of us left, after the sickness and ... well, this." I swept my arm across, encompassing the barren landscape. "We have to protect what's left. So, do you have any specific plans to accomplish this goal? Beyond stopping at this oasis to refill, anyway."
(October 4, 2019 - 7:20 pm)
Zotiyac~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up after the morning sun broke over the skyline. That morning, I was determined to search for my sister, Karen, yet I did forget her name.... What is her name again...? I thought to myself. After all these years, I've forgotten everything...
I sighed, stood up, and walked out of the tent. Monarch was traveling everywhere, and I'd finally found her! "Monarch!" I yelled at her. Monarch looked like she hadn't slept in years. "Monarch...?" I repeated, but more hesitant. She shook her head to get herself out of her daze. "Yo." Monarch said after a long moment of silence. "Hey..." I began, "Where had you've been...." Monarch looked at me, confused. "S-sorry! My grammar is uh...confusing..." I said while rubbing my head, also in confusion. Monarch just smiled. I could tell she had smiled under her bandana. She always gave me a flutter of hope when she smiled. I then gasped. "Will you help me find my sister!?" I began to screech in delight. Monarch raised an eyebrow, "What? You have a sister?" I just stood there and looked at her awkwardly. "Uh yeah.....? I never told you?" Monarch nodded. I blushed, feeling embarrassed. "S-sorry!" Monarch then took my hands and said, "Yeah...no need to be sorry. Finally found you eh?" I nodded, feeling very happy. Monarch sighed and adjusted her bandana. "Fine...I'll help you find your sister..." I then smiled so big, that my cheeks hurt. "Thankyousomuch!" I screamed in her face. She pushed me away by my chest. "Personal space." "Right...Sorry!" I replied.
"Shall we get going?" Monarch said. I nodded, determined to find my sister at last! Monarch took my hand and started running like she was in an anime or something. Naruto running, I think. She slowed down when she came across something huge. Something...different. There was dust over the..thing, but I for sure saw something clearly. A huge crowd of mutants. Just like Monarch and me.
((LET THE SUSPENSE HAPPEN!))

"We are traveling with a group of righteous idiots."
Gamma looks at me. "Can't say I don't agree with you, but that's an odd statement to suddenly blurt out. They probably heard you, you know."
I shrug. "It's the truth. The truth can be spoken whenever."
Gamma, "Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. We should probably walk farther away so they don't hear you."
