The year is 2016. There has been a breakthrough in bioengineering. For many years, there has been an effort to make the adrenal gland accessible at will. This was made possible by a serum, nicknamed Stim, developed by an American medical research corporation. Medical science is typically aimed at improving human life. This research team's goal was to harness the human body's natural ability to amplify itself in survival situations, and make it available for everyday use. This would make it possible to improve America's livelihood and productivity.
Since the administering of Stim to the public would undoubtedly lead to a severe increase in crime, the precaution was made to administer first military and law enforcement. Over the course of the next few months after the serum's completion, the initial test subject, consisting of various animals, showed drastic increase in strength, agility, reflexes and critical thinking. Noting no negative side effects, the Stim was then tested on human subjects with similar results, leading to the administering of the serum to the military and law enforcement of the country.
Stim was very successful. Crimes were significantly less successful, and eventually the crime rate dropped sharply. Seeing the positive results of their creation, it was desired that the serum go nationwide, so that the populous could reap the benefits from the serum. Their decision was a direct result of their lust for human advancement. All aspects of human life would never be the same.
A year later, upon a routine examination of the animal test subjects, the researchers found that their initial subjects had either died or gone completely insane. It was agreed upon that this was nothing to worry about, seeing as animals are inferior to human beings as far as their genetic makeup. There was also the fact that this corporation was adamant about their nationwide release of Stim. Thus, the reports of the negative side effects went unreported.
Storyline:
It is now 2020. Approximately 75% of the nation's population is either dead or have been reduced to seemingly mindless beings that want nothing more than to sate their obscenely destructive nature. 20% remain completely unchanged due to the fact that they did not decide to take the Stim. They now have either been killed off by the savage creatures, or fighting to survive in a wasteland where there is no such thing as safe or sanity.
The remaining 5% are the only chance humanity has left for survival.

There are three types of people in this RP. Two of which will be playable. They are those who are somewhat more than human, meaning those who were positively effected by the serum, and those who did not take it for whatever reason. There will be a limit on the number of the enhanced humans. And so, of course, any one else can be human. Those who apply for the enhanced characters will be judged by my Co-GM Mephisto and myself. (This is a dual dictatorship!) The two of us will be among those who are positively affected by the serum. You will be required to send a first draft of your first post to either myself or Mephisto (after acceptance of course). This is to better understand the type of writer you are.
Please note that the number of enhanced characters we allow in the RP will be determined by the number of players who join. So, if we have a big turn out, you are more likely to be selected. So, for now, assume you will be a regular human. We will inform you if you are selected to be enhanced or not. (INVITE YOUR FRIENDS!) Also, those who frown upon or despise profanity, this is not the RP for you. For those of you who do not mind, please feel free to use as colorful of language as much, or as little as you see fit.
Character Skeleton:
Name: (First and Last)
Nickname: (If you choose.)
Age:
Altered by Stim: (Yes or No.)
Profession, Talents or Skills: (If you choose to list any)
Appearance: (Photos are acceptable, but frowned upon. :D If you choose to do so, please, no anime. This is supposed to be realistic.)
Hometown: (Though the RP will be centralized in Chicago.[Why Chicago? Because we can! Think about it, stories rarely take place there. ^.^])
Background: (Relatively short, but not too short. A decent paragraph or two will do.)
This post is subject to change, but you shall be informed if changes do occur. We hope you enjoy this RP. We sure will
