So, this has come about due to a slight fear that I'm not going to be able to do justice to the massive universe of Mass Effect in my Mass Effect Quest...and not to mention I've been asked to do some minor world building to the Reaper's...so I'm a bit nervous. As such I'm going back to my roots. The first post I ever did...a Worm post. To be fair I really should make a second chapter for that...it was really popular.
Anyway. Let's get this started. Our goal? Try to fix everything wrong with our character's life and the life of other people around us...possibly capes. Oh! And try not to die.
BEGIN
You are a...
[ ] Male?
[ ] Female?
[ ] Name?
From: Each comes with its own unique backstory, chose wisely.
[ ] New York, Brooklyn: You're black...well you're a lot of things but mostly black...whatever your nationality is 'yes' and you're age sixteen. You've never really cared much for heroes or villains. Growing up in Brooklyn and it's gangs you've learned not to look at everything in black and white. People don't join gangs because they're psycho's or monsters...well not most people anyway. They join because they have no choice, it's join and be safe on the street, gain some extra cash to feed your fam. Or die by getting mugged. You have no one, just your mother a nurse, who has taken care of you since day one, and a few friends. Some of them in gangs. Everyone has a side they don't want you to see.
[ ] California, Los Angeles: You're a simple person of British descent and your age sixteen. You live in the upper class section of Los Angeles, you live your life on an everyday basis keeping away from the gangs there are. You live with both your parents, your mom a marriage councilor, and your father a lawyer, and have lot's of friends. You're the popular kid at school. You've admired hero's all your life, and you always wanted to be one. You try to keep away from the kids at school you see passing around weed, buying and selling it. You're life isn't the most interesting, but at least your safe right?
[ ] Illinois, Chicago: You are a child of Japanese descent. You live in Chicago, in a foster home with foster parents, your original parents were killed in a mugging years ago. You stopped caring about that a long time ago so it doesn't bother you. You're relationship with your foster parents however is...strained to say the least. You often act out in school getting into various fights. You also don't have much of a liking towards heroes. You often question why were they too late to save your family but not you? You don't have any friends to say, but your foster parents
do care for you despite the trouble you give them.
[ ] Brockton Bay: Your from the bay. Your parents are Cuban immigrants and you, as well as they regret coming here more than ever. You're relationship with both of your parents is pretty good, but they fight a lot due to money problems. You go to Winslow High, and try to keep your head down and you don't have too many friends. You have a couple good spanish friends here and there, some caucasian, and you and the ABB kids have a...mutual understanding you guess? It's weird but you try and stay away from any E88 and some Merchant kids as few as they are in Winslow...then again, you never know who's a druggie.

Pick one, and I hope any residents aren't offended if you're from Chicago or Cali or NY if it's picked by the way I portray it as I've only passed through there to see friends (I'm from NY though). This will kind of be practice world building for me no matter what's picked,so let's go.
