Modern Infection

[ShadowDemonLord]

Modern Infection:
Modern Infection takes place on a Huge planet that is in its modern times. This role play is a Modern Fantasy so there are lots of different races on it. The one that is causing the most trouble is the infected. The infection started just as the planet turned into its modern days. People were at war yes, but that didn't stop the infected. The infection began just as the humans discovered an ancient artifact they found in a cave. This cave had lots of booby traps so many of the humans were killed. Inside this artifact was an egg of sorts. When it hatched, a creature jumped onto the generals face and entered his body. His body started to transform and soon, he bursted, more of those creatures came out of his body and the other soldiers started to shoot, killing each other, and some of those little creatures. Sadly though, those creatures still infected the humans, and thus they started to spread, and mutate, making themselves more deadly, leathal, and less killable. So far the infection has been 'contained' in a large city, but how long until it gets out? (Evil laughter)

Is there magic?
Yes! But sadly magic will not effect the infected. Magic should be used for help not destruction. You can use elemental spells on the infected but no: *Sprays the infected with fire and burns them to a crisp* The infected will just catch on fire and run at you! You can burn to!

Map:
I am working on the picture of the map. There are snowy areas on the map, desert areas, foresty areas, cities, ext. As other races are made I will lend that person the map so they can put their cities/villages on it, its just for locations.

Rules!
No abusing magic/weapons.
No rigging your character/race.
Don't make so many cities that their all over the map.
No one can make Infected characters.
If your character dies, then he dies, theirs no reviving with magic.
No air to land, air to air, air to sea, air is just for transportation.
No sea to land, sea to sea battles are alright, seas mostly for transports
No destroying the world!
No nuclear weapons
You can bombard land if you have a reason, I must approve.
You cant make your race part infected. They take over you completely so it isn't possible

That should be it! If I think of more stuff I will post it. I will also post events that will happen with the humans. Ex: The humans have discovered how to use fire to their advantage, thus making the flamethrower. (Thats just an example, I wont let that happen yet.) PS: The planet name is Kalnoa

[ShadowDemonLord]

SoLmaster, the world has just entered the modern stage. Maybe a few years after-wards, your race seems way to advanced. Levitation tanks? Sounds way to futuristic in my opinion. You cant make your race part infected either. The infected have a mastermind that is growing underground and it controls the minds of all the infected. Sorry but you cant do that. (Putting that in the rules section)

 

[SoLmaster]

Fix them to be less powerful. They are a race of Psychics now.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

*Sigh* fine sol, I guess that works.

 

[varsaigen]

Character Ability/Personality: He can lift over 200 Tons of weight, Can break a mental barrier, Can rip apart any minor class infected. He is cold to any one who hasn't been a friend to him.

How teh HELL can he lift 400,000 lbs??? He could lift the statue of LIBERTY with ease then! ><

The total weight of copper in the Statue is 62,000 pounds (31 tons)

Besides, if he can break a mental barrier, anyone he dislikes, he could fry their brain, by overworking its processors, causing illusions to the victim, headaches, too much to kill with. Besides, the Mastermind can control them all, and is like a Super Computer, dwarfing your puny, advanced head XD But I have to wonder if he has Overminds, giving him eyes in the sky? Or proving to work as secondary brains/tacticians for individual battles. With multiple brains as commanders, he can direct each one to command certain infected, making it appear as generals reporting to the master, when really its different attentions, and the ability (by brainpower) to focus on several battles, and calculate several factors, all at once. It's like having two heads! or.. thre.. or four, or five, or six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifthteen... ok, I'll stop now. I think you get the point though

I can set up the Infected Race in more detail than they currently are, if you want

BTW, I think I have a good concept for the secondary brains if you decide to accept them :3 The metal bindings around it, allow the brain to move, and gives it a more skeletal appearance, and makes it look more menacing as an infected brain.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Woa I didnt notice that... sol decrease that amount, no living being can do that, its not possible.

 

[varsaigen]

rofl the wonders of conversion calculators XD "tons <> pounds" is what I googled lol

Anyways, updated that post with much more info (before I found out you posted )

 

[SoLmaster]

He can lift up in mental contention but then he has to rest. He is Grand commander of the 4th fleet. So he kinda of a over mind.

 

[varsaigen]

Then that is far too much power, even for an genetically altered race. The ability to lift an entire army while other troops burn the immobilized infected... I dunno, but it seems rather cheap. You could level an entire CITY with that! 200 tons?!?! That is almost 7 Statues of LIBERTY! (6.667 if you want specifics)

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Yes sol, thats way to much powerz.Var, you gonna join this? To answer your question var, there are spores that it creates, making them move through the air, they act as eyes for the overmind. He has no eyes himself but he does have a massive ammount of tentacles, and when hes finish growing, lets just say hes gonna need an entire continent.

Heres what all the classes of the infected do.

Infectors: They run around in swarms, but are small and are easily killed. They have little tentacles, no eyes but feelers that allows them to sense things. Those little tentacles spread through out the body, killing it and taking it over, building itself on the body. They can create two forms when doing this, the fighter form, or the carrier form.

Fighters: They do just that, they can jump really far and high. When the persons infected, they act like zombies, the head and stuff is still there, just built on so it looks disformed. They can carry guns and shoot, just not very long ranged. They tend to walk up and fight with their claws. If they body dies, the infector can remove itself, and look for a new host. (The body remains dead.) If they body has been infected, but there is no infector present, the body will be dead but an infector can come and insert itself into that body, and use it again. (Only way to avoid this is to destroy the body)

Carriers: They are slow, and have a huge sack on the waist up thats built on from the infectors. Inside that sack are more infectors, that are incubated and when the time is right, the carriers can explode, doing damage to people around them and the infectors have time to spread. They cannot be reused.

Transformer: They look like giant flat spiders but without the eyes. They to have feelers as the infectors only they arnt from infectors, they come from eggs created by the overmind. They can transform themselves into three other forms, The lunger, shooter, and tanker.

Lunger: They look kinda like the transformer but it has a head, and some limbs. The lunger usually jumps onto vehicles and yank people out/kill them.

Tanker: The tanker appears as a giant dis-formed creature with no stomach area, there still is skin there that holds him together only there are holes in between. The tanker has a head but no eyes and feelers where his mouth is. He is huge and can take a lot of damage. He walks slow and has a huge arm he can use as a shield against bullets, small explosives, and magic. His other arm is smaller but still can do some damage.

Shooters: The shooters do not move, they act like turrets that can attach to walls, ceilings, and the floor. They shoot out yellow spices that can hurt like hell. They are a pain to get out but if you are shot with a number of times your most likely gonna die. They tend to shoot from afar and when they are hit, they curl over to cover their weak spot. Their weak spot is where the needles are so they tend to protect it. When someone gets close they usualy chicken out and turn back into the transformer.

.

 

[varsaigen]

so, he's a fleshy jellyfish

And yes, I'll be joining. And no, I'm not Chozo I'll be a lycan-like species. (like you wolf race in the Scifi RP ) I had been planning to use a wolf-like race eventually

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Well i guess now would be a good time to use them. I'll put in more of the infected race later, Im tired and Im gonna go to bed. *Yawn yawn*

 

[varsaigen]

Race Name: Lykeron (ly*keer*on)
Race Description: Humanoid wolves, like ShadowDemonLord's avatar. Has no markings unless they are tatoos.
Territories: A vast civilization on an opposing continent.
Government: Standard democracy, though the leaders are preferably of a military background (they KNOW how to handle wars )
Classes: Standard U.S. military :3 Enjoy... >:3
Vehicles: Modern technology of the US military :3 Hummers, tanks, drones, the epic technologies of war, made by freedom, as "presents" to the enemy >:3
Diet: mostly carnivorous, but sometimes omnivorous, though rare.
Cities: About fifthteen cities in the nation, with smaller towns between. Capitol is Kal'terra.

Edit: ok, troop types added in.

 

[Koicheen]

Oh, i'm so joining this. You're race seems interesting, var, but can you add some classes? The "standard democracy" sounds a bit out of place, or I don't understand what you're trying to say

 

[SoLmaster]

Changed the weight to 3 tons

 

[Jsprat100]

Name: Marac
Race: Human Medic
Character Description: Fairly Tall, Substantially fat, bald
Character Ability: Can find some form of medicinal value in most things, improvises medical equipment if neccisary
Personality: Stern and deadpan. If he hates you - he will tell you. Generally gives a half-arsed approach to his job. Motto: "Bandage them up and ship them back out"
Likes: Watching, but not participating in, battle. Holidays off. Alchohol.
Dislikes: Complainers and Softies. Anyone who disaproves of his medical methods. Both marines and magic users.

Sample Roleplay:

Marac was up to his elbows in blood. He had just to got rid of some alien material in a poor buggers torso. Producing a needle filled with a yellow slimy substance, he stabbed the point into the patients neck. The dying marine gave out a shout of pain as his skin fused together almost unnaturally.

"Ouch! What the hell do you think you are doing, fatty?" Yelled the young marine

"Ive just saved your life," replied Marac, "What did you think having an operation was going to be like? Did you want a plaster and a lolly pop or did you want me to get rid of the agonising pain? Get out of this tent now, I've got a technician with a leg full of shrapnel and I sure know you won't want to see the procedure"

The injured marine grumbled and walked out, clutching his stomach.

 

[SoLmaster]

Good but lose the sample

Hey var, Nice idea.
But it will take a lot of energy to to the secondary brain deal.
Mentol would have Grand Commanders as the main link to the other Commanders. Then link up with the seers in the main city to report. Therefore HQ knows whats happening. Mentol uses energy from enemy units.
Infected would have a similar set up but they would need massive energy tanks near by. Unless they give all their mental energy to the overmind. Then when some get converted, the mind gets a power boost.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Ya humans dont really care for magic users. In fact I put humans in here as a non magical race. (Sorry) If you want you can make a band of humans and call them something else and they use magic. But thats for you. Humans went all tech in this rp. I finished the map and I am ready to let you guys put your towns/ cities/ capitals on it. Im gonna try and post up a picture of it like a map and put names of sertain areas. Humans right now only have 1 and a half cities. Their main one and the one thats been attacked by the infected. (The infected cave is one blocked off by fences.) Oh and sol's characters approved, var's race is approved, and sprats characters approved. So var, your not gonna have any soldiers? Just vehicles? Interesting...

 

[SoLmaster]

Add Mage town and Land of Shak'Tak

 

[varsaigen]

ah. forgot to add soldiers to the list lol I'll update it.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Um guys, you dont have to put what everything does, I just put that for the infected so you know what they are and what they would do.

 

[SoLmaster]

Deleted the thing. Sorry about that got really board.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Alright, I uploaded a picture (You cant see the words and I dont know how to fix it, but I'll try.) The maps uploaded as well. Place your cities and send me the map file. Just dont mess with the terrain.

 

[SoLmaster]

Use sharp on photo shop.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

I dont have photo shop... im a PC not a mac

 

[SoLmaster]

I'm a pc as well and i have photo shop.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Well you fix it up then. You can do that cant ya? With just the picture I mean.

 

[varsaigen]

lol Im a PC and I gave up tryign to find my Photoshop CD

 

[SoLmaster]

OK, I'll fix then post it tomorrow.

 

[Koicheen]

It needs islands and stuff. Looks kinda... plain.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Bleh I know. But the islands would be to small to see seeing as how the map has been scaled down. I'll make zoomed in versions to show off some islands.

 

[Jsprat100]

Another bit of RP (I need something to put my mind on during the holidays)

Marac briskly walked out into the blighted wasteland, wiping the sweat from his brow. He had always hated house calls. Well, where he was going was hardly a house. It was an area on the outskirts of a technician station where there had recently been an attack. Some poor sod had something wrong with him, started acting strangely since he left the others.

It was true, the man was lying strangely, not even breathing. Marac had never before seen such an odd spectacle. He was suprised, though his facial expressions didn't show it so the crowds of mechanics and marines couldn't sense the fact he was caught off guard. Out of the blue, one of the mans arms began to swell and leak a pus substance. Crowds shrieked around him and stepped back. Marac did not.

"He has been infected. Difficult procedure. He needs to lose the arm if he has a chance of surviving" said Marac, producing a saw from his bag.

"You aren't going to lob his arm off with that, are you mate?" Yelled an apprentise technician from the crowd.

"What else do you want me to do?" replied Marac, already sawing through the leathery arm, "I don't think calpol is going to get rid of this, junior"

He continued sawing through. It was a clean operation, there was no blood or shouting. One woman feinted. Serves her right for looking. Once the infected limb was detatched, the only thing left to do was stun the infector. After producing a syringe, this time full of a red, sparking solution, Marac stabbed it into the mans heart. Instantly the bulging and bloating ceased.

"Youve killed the virus!" Yelled a woman from the crowd.

"No I haven't," Said Marac, to sighs from his audience, "The body and the virus are both in a coma-like state. No one touch him. You cannot get rid of an infector. I am going to get a transport sent over so I can study the lifeform"

"Surely you can do something?" Yelled an artistan from the crowd angrily.

"Look, buddy," said Marac, standing up and walking right up to the artistan, "If you think you can get rid of it, be my guest. Presumably you have spent more than my 10 years studying alien ailments and diseases? This isn't the flu, you naieve, old fool. You can bill me my payment"

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Just then a military jeep rolls in and some soldiers hop out. One of them walks up to Marac. "Sir, Im afraid Im going to have to ask you to step back. Theres no saving this man from the infected." Some of the soldiers put the coma'ed man onto a stretcher and into the humvee. One of the soldiers holds a shotgun just incase things get out of hand. Soon more humvee's roll in and soldiers hop out, they begin checking the citizens for any sign of infection and they seal the area off as contaminated until further notice. The jeep with the infected man rolls off out of the area and soon dissapears behind buildings.

"Everyone calm down. We are here to help you and make sure everything is alright." A soldier announces standing ontop of a humvee, they had the area sealed off with humvees that had mounted turrets on it. "If everyone would line up in an orderly fasion we will check for any abnormal signs and we will check to see if everythings clear. Just stay calm." He puts the loudspeaker down and a few soldiers start to lign up the citizens as well as Marac.

 

[Koicheen]

I could try to use my humble drawing skills to make a map based on the one you made. If you want, of course.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

OOC: Um sure. Btw var when are you going to add classes to your race. I cant add your race to the race board till you add classes.

 

[varsaigen]

um... classes... lets see...

Technicians, soldiers, marines, pilots, scientists (military), drivers, and various versions of black ops. In short, the US military.

 

[Jsprat100]

"What do you think you are doing? You marines are all the same! Give me back that corpse, it belongs to me for testing purposes, or I swear..." yelled Marac

"Sir, I feel..." started a Marine

"You won't be feeling much if I can't have that test subject back. I found it. I am a medic. I have stunned it. It won't move for at least a month. I want to test it, then I will give it back so you can prod it or whatever you do to make yourself seem smart"

"Get back in..." started the same marine

"I am a medic. 10 years in medical collage and this is the thanks I get? Just because I can't fire a gun or yell at people dosen't mean..."

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

The soldier started to get irritated and held up his gun. Another marine came in and stopped him, making him lower his gun. "Marac is it? Let me talk to you in private." He pulls marac to the side. "Marac, we are taking that subject to a secret facility in the icey snow lands. No one knows of its location. If you just cooperate with us you will get to go back home. If you want to test on the body, then you'll have to fill out an application and hope that the scientists reply. Until then I suggest you get back inline before we take forceful measures."

The soldier pointed marac to the line, some of the civilians were seen already and were sitting down waiting to be let go. Things were so far going along smoothly. After a few minutes aloud screetching noise was heard in the distance. The soldiers tryed to speed things up but then an infected lunger appeared. It grabbed a soldier out of a humvee mounted turret and he screamed in fear as it jumped back into some darkness. Soldiers fired in the general direction. A few of the citizens scream in fear from the gunfire and the other screaming.

 

[Jsprat100]

Marac stood staring at the lunger as bullets either bounced off of its hide or hit, but causing no damage to the freak at all.

"You are going at this all wrong," Said Marac calmly, "You want to sedate it first"

"We have been doing this for years, mate, just go home and play with your chemistry set," replied one marine cockily.

"You have minor bruising on your chin," replied Marac.

"Where?" quizzed the Marine

"Here" replied Marac, Punching him in the face, "It looks nasty. Here is my card"

Marac tossed his buisness card at the startled Marine and plodded off, wiping his brow and whistling a familiar tune.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

OOC: Lol marac, the creature went and hid itself between some buildings. And ya cant say stuff for other people either.

IC: As marac started to walk off another lunger jumped down from the roof tops and landed infront of him, the shock would make marac fall over. There was no medicine that could stop the lungers or stun them.

 

[Jsprat100]

OOC: I didn't think you were playing all of the marines. Sorry

IC: Marac had encountered Lungers before, but only in books or dead ones in the operating theatre. Just the other day he had nicked a lunger corpse from a battlefield. The fact was true, Marac's solution only worked on premeture cases of the virus, not when it was running around shouting at you. He could hardly outrun it - even someone who wasn't as out of shape as he was could never outrun it.

All he could do was play dead. Slowly reaching into his bag, he pulled out a cadaver solution - used to create an artificial state of death, similar to the poison in Romeo and Juliet. He slowly inflicted the purple death solution on himself and he feinted. He hopefully could outsmart the creature. Even if the creature still ate him, at least he wouldn't feel it.

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

One of the marines gets up behind the creature and hops onto it, and begins to slice away at it with his military grade knife. The creature tries to reach around to grab the marine as it slowly reaces up it turns around slowly. A marine points up a rifle and fires at the creatures underbelly. Soon the creature falls, dead. The marine gets up and dusts himself off looking at marac. He chuckles as he sees the syringe knowing that he wasnt dead. They picked him up and put him in a humvee where they drove him off back to his home. The place was soon secure and they released the civilians. When marac would awake, he would be in his home and there would be a note waiting for him on a table.

 

[Jsprat100]

Marac awoke. Was he dead? If only he was...no more infected or troubles. Then he opened his eyes. Bugger! He was alive! Was that even a good thing? Those marines he had loathed so much in the past had saved his life. They were still everything he ever hated. I suppose he got the rest of the day off work, and if that isn't good, nothing is.

He stumbled over to the table to find a note on a scrap piece of paper. That could mean two things. Someone had shipped him the treaty of london or the marines had left him a note. Unfortunately, it was the latter.

It read:
...

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

It read: "Hey, I'll try and put a good name out for ya in the science facility. If your lucky, you might get a position to study that creature. We could use another brain on the team." It was signed by the marine that had saved his life.

 

[varsaigen]

I have to wonder what the lungers look like. Are they like the Ing from Metroid?

 

[ShadowDemonLord]

Nah, they kind of look like stalker in halo 3 only with limbs, kind of thin limbs.

 

[Koicheen]

Screw it,i'm making my own race.

Name: Planet-touched.
Race description: Fairly similar to humans. But they all have distinctive white eyes, and light-blond hair. They gave themselves the name because they belive they were humans who were chosen and enhanced by the "Devines"(their gods). It is obvious they share blood with humans, but when, why, and how did the genetic altering happen is unknown to scientists. They see themselves as superior to other races, but they do not hate them. They tend to keep to themselves, and mind they're own business. They can be stronger or faster then humans (They're run speed record is faster then the human's, for example), and overall intelligence is somewhat higher, but they lack the very thing that got mankind to where it is today: ambition. The technology is, at first glance, different, but it only has slight changes, and it's mostly copied from others.
Classes: Guard (regular soldier), Medic, Higher rank officer, Informant (Special ops/scout), Many-Stared Cloaks (Special magic-user units).
Vehicles: HF-IM Battle Tank (Heavy tank), Relictant (light and fast transport/machine-gun platform), HJ-G36K Air Transport.
O/C/H: Omnivore.
Cities: Nemall, Teangrad, Laeas, and several industrial towns. Population lives in the cities, and all industry is in rural areas. Advanced and organized transportation system.


P.S. Meh, who cares about the map, we'll make due with this one. Character sheet coming soon.
