Alright, guys, it's been a while...
The year is 3456. The location is the walled city known as Sentinel, or "The Nest" to some. it is a city stretching well over half the size of Florida(it is in a made up state, though, not Florida), but it is now divided. The government has become overly powerful, and has started dictating who reproduces with a technological fist of iron, in an attempt to weed out the "alpha" gene that keeps cropping up. However, nobody knows what exactly causes the gene to pop up. It can be given to a child from 2 normal parents lacking even the carrier trait. These "alphas" have heightened senses, one to three powers(only extremely powerful ones have three), and are extremely fertile, especially with other alphas, as opposed to "normals," who are just that. The fighting, along with the body count of each side, is escalating with each passing day-nay, moment-and is forcing those who claim to be neutral into choosing sides. The normals who aide the Alphas are legally determined to be traitors and are to be executed on sight, but are not prone to alpha attacks. The government has even enacted its "Valkrie program," an experimental superhuman project meant to hunt alphas. The alphas, though, only fight for peace, or so they claim; they want the government to treat them fairly, not like animals as the government chose to treat them initially.
You are either an alpha or a Valkrie; if you're a Valkrie, you get advanced armor and weapons, but if you're an alpha, you get heightened senses, strength/speed, and a power. So one thing remains to be seen... Do you fight for the eradication of the dangerous alphas, or the future filled with them?
Alrighty, first off, rules:
1. No god-moding.
2. Auto-hitting is a no-no.
3. My word is law. If you have a problem, come to me. Through PM.
4. Have fun and relax. Yes, there will be moments that bend reality: but it is science fiction...
5. Policy on arguing in thread: you get one warning, then you're out. Take it to PM if you have to make a case, people. It's not that hard.
6. If you do get booted, I will give you a cool down period of a day or two, then you can try again with another character. A second strike will result in a longer cool down period. A third is a permanent boot.

Armor types: (all armors are aluminum plates over a titanium framed exoskeleton, but vary in layout and tactical abilities.)
Soldier- well protected all around, from most types of damage. Has the ability to lock down after a certain amount of damage is received; this completely protects the wearer, but he/she is unable to move and cannot use weapons while locked down.
Riot- heavily protected front, but lightly protected back. Has the ability to send out a massive jolt of electricity through all plates and short range through the ground, though this causes temporary shutdown of targeting and other major in-suit systems.
Sniper- light overall protection. Built in shoulder recoil dampeners. Has the ability to cloak, though it doesn't hide heat signature, and the power drain from the shoulder recoil dampeners cause the cloaking to shut down upon firing of a weapon or using a knife.
Scout- lightweight overall protection. Has the ability to boost in any direction at high speed for a short distance. The speed causes processor lag, and the HUD must be allowed to catch up.

Telekenesis- can move and throw things at will. Strength drain varies with object size and speed thrown.
Healing- can heal all but the worst wounds, using the life force from other living things. Strength drain varies with wound intensity and amount of life force transferred.
Deconstruction- can completely disassemble anything mechanical simply by touching it and concentrating for a few seconds. Strength drain varies with size and complexity of disassembly target.
Cryokenesis- can create and throw ice shards, create ice formations, and spontaneously freeze targets. Strength drain varies based on distance to target and depth/intensity of freeze.
