Jerimiaha’s constant companion "DOG" (Telepathically intuned to Jerimiaha )

A pair of 'Non-Human Hunters', they move through the ruined world hunting down those creatures considered ‘abominations of creation’. Lab created life forms that blended human DNA with that of other animals or those creatures that evolved from the ashes of the apocalypse and are not entirely human anymore. It doesn’t matter to them if the creatures have lives and ‘family’ or not. To them, if it’s not pure human, then it doesn’t belong in this world. Not true brother and sister, but they couldn’t be more like siblings even if they had been born so. You can best believe, where there’s one, the other is there as well, just….hidden….for now.



The female member of this duo, she works with Clyde like hands on a clock. She uses a high powered, compound bow with titanium tipped arrows. Carrying several knives and two hand guns holstered on each hip, she looks more like some sort of gun slinger from the old west than a modern day hunter. A deadly aim with her bow, she’s got a tongue that’s just as sharp if you get in her way. Working in tandem with Clyde like a well oiled machine, she roams the land, above and below, looking for anything that isn’t human and puts it ‘out of her misery’.

Height: 5’10”
Build: Athletic/Slim
Hair: Brown, Shoulder Length
Eyes: Hazel



The male member of the pair, Clyde is like a stealth fighter in human form. Silent as a church mouse, he sneaks up on the target. The heavy fire power of the duo, he carries several guns on him including three 9MM, a Colt 45, a 44 Magnum, G36K and several hand held explosive devices. A pair of binoculars complete with night vision. Always decked out in black/olive green complete with a Kevlar vest, he patrols the land with Bonnie looking for those things he and Bonnie believe never should have been created. In any way for any reason.

Height: 6’3”
Build: Athletic Muscular
Hair: Black, short cropped
Eyes: Light Brown

The duo travel around in a well armored personnel carrier that acts as both transportation and weapons/ammo depo.

In the late 23rd century genetically manufactured bio-mechanical beings called Synthecans were widely used throughout the Solar System. Regardless of their purpose they were stronger, faster and more intelligent than the ones they were created to serve.

Synthecans were commonly utilized for missions and tasks that were too dangerous for Humans, but they were also used as prostitutes in remote off-world mining colonies. It was their exploitation that eventually caused them to rebel against their masters and these units were forced to be terminated. The geneticists that created them found that at the age of five the Synthecans began to develop their own emotional responses and began to react to situations based on their own self preservation rather than following the directives pre-programmed into their organic cybernetic processors (OCP's). As they became 'self-aware', ethically Human society had to extend the same rights to these beings as they would any other living creatures. The solution was to make it illegal for any Synthecan passed the age of five to remain on Earth and further more all 'Sixes', as they were termed, would be forced to wear 'obedience collars' when in heavily populated areas for the rest of their lives.

Synthecans are biological robots, manufactured by literally assembling various grown body parts in order to make a being in the image of man but superior in every other way. They would become conscious and fully functional as adults, programmed to carry out whatever duties they were created for.

Their bones are made of an organic polymer that has a tensile strength stronger than steel and their dense muscles being made of the same substance gives them unnatural strength. Pre-designed muscle memory also provides them with incredible precision and coordination, allowing them to mimic and perform any maneuver with expertise. The skin of a Synthecan is as well an organic polymer and if one were not sure it was synthetic would simply question it's appearance, since their skin is flawless and catches the light differently than real flesh. Their blood is coloured deep purple.

A Synthecan's OCP, is a cloned Human brain that has been modified and adapted to a series of cybernetic processors that harbor the information that allow them to perform their super-human feats. The OCP also contains libraries of information that geneticists are able to tap into with by administering specific chemical agents into the blood stream, thus allowing a Synthecan to perform a new complex task without need of training.

Pheyd was a combat model, specifically designed for assault. He defended his masters from and hunted down corporate terrorists successfully for five years and when he began to develop self awareness was sold off for off-world exploration. He joined a team of scientists that were embarking on a deep space exploration mission that would take them beyond the solar system, that would take them as far as Orion's Belt. Pheyd and other Syntecan's who did not have a mortal physiology would maintain the vessel while the Humans cryogenically hibernated.

Decades passed and during their deep space travel war had broken out through the entire solar system. By the time they reached their destination the Earth had been obliterated and the off-world colonies were in chaos. When a deep space transmission of what had occurred finally reached the science vessel the international crew slowly destroyed one another and Pheyd was the only survivor. The ship had been sabotaged during the fray and it's speed compromised, which would have been a death sentence for a Human, but not for a Synthecan. The scientists grew their own food and produced water in a bio-sphere so Pheyd pointed the ship back to Earth and began the long journey back, surviving by tending his gardens and periodically hibernating. Eventually, though, as time lingered he entered deep hibernation, a state completely preserved a body through a process of flash freezing. For a Human this state required a trained to team to revive them and quite often it was not successful after an extended period of time, but Synthecans were different their bodies could endure the process and revive naturally. He set the instruments to leave him frozen until sensors detected Earth as he knew that once he awoke he could not be sure if the bio-sphere would maintain itself for centuries and life would be brief after his revival unless he could escape back to his home world.



He stands 6'4" and weighs approximately 300 lbs. The excess weight is due to the fact that his muscles and bones weigh far more than a Humans. His hair is white and his eyes are unnaturally bright blue. This is because quite often the Synthecans were manufactured to stand out from Humans, so certain physical attributes were modified and odd eye colours were common. His complexion is very pale.

Sabine had been born on a southern island in a Cheysulia village. Her parents were of the Jaguar breed, living in harmony with all other breeds among the islands. Their's was a semi-peaceful life, having to fend off the occassional mutant hunters from time to time.

Sabine was small for her breed at 23 years of age, standing only 5'2" and weighing about 120 pounds. Her skin was a golden color with faint rosettes down her sides and the middle of her back. Her canines were longer and sharper than that of a normal human, her hair coal black and her eyes were a light amber color ringed in Green. Her pupils were round, instead of slitted yet she could see well in the dark, the pupils expanding when needed to allow more light into the eye. Her hair was waist length and black as night. She had an exotic look to her with an athletic body that was also soft where a female should be soft.

Her hands had retractable claws just under the fingernails and they were sharp as needles. Usually, when having to fight, she used only her claws but would use knives when available to her.

She was an excellent tracker and hunter, not being the favorite with the males as she could fight and hunt as well as they could, but she didn't care. She was the only cub her parents had been able to have and as they had gotten older, she had taken on the duty to care for them.

Description to be developed in the story.

Name: Kaelan Sinclaire
Age: 25
Race: genetically altered human
Hair: Black, long, thick
Eyes: Light blue
Body type: voloptuous and toned
Height: 5'4"


Kaelan comes from the mountains, her mother having been somewhat of a recluse. Kaelan had more stamina than a normal human female. She could run for longer distances, fight longer (if her wounds weren't energy draining), and just go longer than normal women in all areas. But, she had her weaknesses. Once she was drained she had to sleep for up to 24 hours to replenish herself as well as eat and drink mass amounts. Also, if she lost too much blood, that would weaken her quickly.

She left her mother's a year ago, glad to be away from the crazy woman who didn't know how she got pregnant with Kaelan. Kaelan had learned early on to ignore her and take care of herself. It had made her a strong woman as well as a good fighter, having had to learn about her gifts on her own. She was excellent with a bowie knife, her weapon of choice and one she carried on her at all times. She also carried a small crossbow and small quiver of bolts stapped to her back as well.

She was traveling, learning about the world beyond the small mountain she'd lived on with her mother when she entered the area where SinTara had been killed.

Miles McGuire is on a special assignment for NASA - tasked to deliver and mount a new communications module to the abondon space station obiting Venus. The countries involved in the joint affair have taken sides and this space station has been abondoned.

During this time frame the world is at war and tensions are high. While on a space walk to install the communications, Miles experiences the first of several large white flashes coming from behind the moon. The earth is beyond the moon and suddenly Miles feels very alone as communications with earth returns static on the radio comm. On the return trip to the space craft, COL Mcguire notices a fuel leak in one of his capillaries. The trip back to earth will take a lot longer to return and if he's lucky the earths gravitional pull will do the rest. Returning to the craft, Miles opens a food pak and turnson the tv screen. Dreams of returning fades as first images of a nuclear holcaust flash across the screen on his instrutment panel. Christ...he's several years away from earth and it doesnt look good.

Approved.

Remember, no laser guns or anything quite that advanced. The only weapon that's beyond the 'norm' is the sort of weaponry that uses intense sound waves that causes a great deal of destruction to inanimate objects and can scramble the brain if it's used close enough. It mostly sends your target sprawling back a few feet with the intensity of the shock wave it produces. The weapon can be anything from a hand gun sized object to that of a tank's gun.

Welcome aboard, Easy!

RP

Is Paradise a 'real place' or only a thought of what Kitty perceives as REAL?

How far along is the story since the wirte up of the remn. of civilization?

Besides the hand guns being about as good as in the Firefly series..

Is there a clan like the Planet of the Apes ? Hybrids or MJR Strauss's group?

Easy

Ah, that is the question of the day, Easy.

Is Paradise real or is it something the Hybrids only perceive to be real? As far as Kitty, Tom and Gavin are concerned, it IS real. That particular part of the story never got further than what you read. It's completely up to us as writers to determine rather or not it's real or something else entirely.

The story has advanced a great deal since the Remnents of Civilization post. With Leo now gone, Kitty and Tom ended up following Plymuth to a remote civilization outpost where they found themselves in the middle of a confrontation yet again. Kitty's injured (took a deep grazing shot to her thigh). Gavin's caught up with them again and has given them a place to hide for now. It's cramped and below the city but it'll do for now.

The enforcers of this outpost are looking for them while Rarmon (the cyborg like man who likes blowing things up) and Jack (an advanced sniper) elude them as well.

The misfit band of hybrid/mutants are going to have to move soon. The problem with that is that they are unfamiliar with the territory. Not to mention all sorts of predators come out of hiding at night and prowl the land in seatch of their next meal.

As far as a clan of hybrids or anything like that, no one's taken that subject up in writing but it's not to say they are out there. In some of the ealier posts in the story, Kitty had some trouble with a pair of panther brothers. They and Kitty, along with other feline/human hybrids, were created in the same lab but when the humans who created them died, they found their own way and many of them left the bunker to seek out a better life.

So that's it in a nut shell.


Let me know if I can give you any more details. I'll be glad to help.

Yeah... I've also been alluding to the fact that spontaneous mutations are occurring. Why? Well there's many reasons, but basically it just makes for a cooler world. In Stonehaven, where the characters are right now there are hybrid people. How they got that way is not really known but the Humans are aware of them and trying to live in peace alongside them. Most of them look completely human, with some very minor differences but you know the nature of people. All takes is a different eye colour or skin colour to give people a reason to be racist.

Basically for the non-humans or humanoids as they call them in Stonehaven, it is just like the discrimination the African Americans suffered during the 1950's. Hybrids or Humanoids if they are known to be so, are not allowed to drink from the same water fountains. They frequent different places as well, but there are many Pure Humans who really don't care one way or the other and so there are also many places where they co-mingle.

It hasn't been established yet, but there would be signs on buildings with symbols on them to let the humanoids where they are welcome and where they are not. Of course, if you're a hybrid that looks completely human you can go where ever you want, but heaven help you if you're discovered.
