Hunting the Empowered (OOC, Interest)

OK, I'll start by saying I'm a Heroes nut (the show). So after seeing the opening for the new season, it gave me an idea.

Basically, my country (which typically uses MT/Early PMT tech in offsite roleplays) just outlawed anybody with special powers (the Empowered)

You would take on the role of someone within my nation who has special abilities.

I would play as the Kagetorian government, and are trying to hunt you down and send you somewhere and lock you up.

Anyone remotely interested?

I'm pretty much stuck myself to playing "Sudovan Native" characters-but that leaves a chance to bag a few in Port, or to have a Clan of the Ships emulating Bulwei I, II, and III in helping people targeted by a Pogrom to escape by ship out to the sea. (Bulwei I and II helped Jews to escape Roman pogroms under Tiberius, Bulwei III assisted Jews fleeing the Middle East during the Jihad that created the first Caliphate. Sudovans also moved Jews from European cities and Spain during various Inquisitions, and the Sudovan Clans hid and smuggled Jews from Europe during the rise of Nazi-ism in Germany)

I could play as the safe country for the empowered.

@Sudova: You wouldn't have to be a native, just empowered and in Kagetora

@Lynion: Well I was kinda going for something along the idea of all governments outlawed Empowered, because I don't want to have to go to war with anybody.

@Orinon: That's actually a neat idea. After would be pretty cool.

@DaWoad: Cool. I'm gonna see how many people I can get before starting it

He then came back to the school, give the ship back, and took the next shuttle to Earth. He has been travelling with Grace ever since.

She has multiple personalities, one is her usual one(peaceful), the other is violent and enjoys fighting.

Heroes is awesome. Is this FT, by chance, seeing that you mentioned "FTL ship" in your character bio?

I'd be down if it was more MT-ish, seeing as a lot of FTL tech would pretty much negate any inbred advantage.

My nation is FT.
Not massively FT(i.e Star Wars), but far enough to have Battlestars and FTL.
And i only have two characters for this, and they are travelling the world on foot, so don't worry.
well, don't worry too much, at least.

I'm interested in it with Will from Superhero School; maybe he's on a field trip or something, because participating in both threads may be murder.

OK, here's what I'm thinking.

This thread is set after the Super Hero School thread. Like maybe 2-3 years later.

@People with characters: accepted.
@ZL: Just so you know, I'm gonna have my nation leader be a closet-empowered

In general, this is going to be mostly MT, with a few PMT/FT stuff. Not much, just like passing mentions

Even better then
*evil laugh*
Though he probably won't know at first, he may figure it out, if he lives long enough
