Machine Flower was basically the whole reason this RP came to be. Ideally, everything within the facility as far as life, technology, and relationships should work similarly to how the comic is portrayed. All the Subjects grew up in the Acacia facilities since they were babies. The reasons for choosing furs for certain types of abilities is a factor of many variables ranging from physical/mental compatibility, responses to test treatments, and the estimated probability the individual would survive a successful treatment.
For the Hadesian, I had expected their ability to be a use when desired effect rather than constantly active at any direct contact. However, if you wish to play the latter then I could see that being just as applicable to this world space. Also, if at any point anybody wishes to modify something about their character, feel free to shoot me a PM. I'm sure Acacia Technologies have all sorts of experimental treatments that could have a wide variety of effects on Subjects.
I do have an overall storyline in mind with this RP, as is hinted by Two's vision in the first post. As for when we get to the next major turning point in this RP, I will likely enact that once I think everybody is getting nicely settled into their characters and the story in large. Of course, I am always open to ideas for side-story arcs based on individuals.

Please ReadIt seems there is a fair bit I had left vague from this RP in general. This is my first attempt at GMing an RP on these forums and I didn't expect some of the differences. As such, I'm going to enact a few decrees to get everybody on the same page as it were.
First, I would like to establish a minimum posting limit from here on out. I would like it to be a minimum of a paragraph (5 sentences), but would like to see people averaging around two paragraphs to ensure your fellow players have plenty to respond to.
Second, and more importantly, have you read the comic this RP is
heavily based off? If not, could you please please please do so? It is a very quick read and it will give you a lot of insight as to the world space we're all playing in. Several inconsistencies with this RP can be amended with a quick read.

If you have any uncertainty about how something works or how something would be, don't hesitate for a moment to ask me. This also goes for anything you may want from the RP that isn't necessarily offered readily; talk with me and we'll see if we can make something work.
At the moment Two is waiting for his partner to post, but for the sake of catching up we might be skimming over our evaluation. I'll try to have a post up this afternoon to try and give the story and the group direction for the next part of the story.
