The Other Side of the Glass | Open and accepting!

[Neon Taile]

You are a Shadow, nothing but an imprint of someone else. You live in a ghost world, imprisoned inside a palace of glass, the place they told you was home. But things are changing….

The world is different now.
Years into the future, humankind have discovered a parallel existence which portrays ghostly images of people and places on Earth in detail.
For a time, the humans were content with exploring and concocting theories about this strange world, full of ghostly people - content,that is, until the ghostly images started mutating.
The people, or Shadows, as they came to be known, were previously nothing but imprints of humans, who supposedly felt nothing. Then, they started to mutate, to develop a personality of their own and gain supernatural powers.
The humans started to become scared. Very scared. The solution they came up with to protect themselves from the Shadows was short term - but effective.
Now, the Shadows are imprisoned in a palace of glass. But all is not well...

Welcome!
Sadly, I'm afraid there has to be rules at some point, and in this case, it's after this little paragraph. However, don't be disheartened - there will be plenty of fun stuff to do as we'll. Anyway, if you would like to learn more about the plot and the world this RP is set in, the head on to the second post!

Rules
PLEASE READ - Please try and write 5+ sentences, with correct spelling and grammar (although of course occasional mistakes are fine – after all, no one’s perfect).
Obey all of Tess’ rules.
Please tell me if you're not going to be able to post for more than a week.
I may ask you to write more in your posts or touch up on your grammar if I feel it’s necessary – please don’t feel like you’ve been banned or anything.
Please use (parentheses/brackets) or [square brackets] when in OOC.
You’re welcome to chat in OOC, but don’t fight.
Please try and keep the genders even – I don’t want to restrict it to one.
Don’t make characters a werewolf or vampire - I don’t mind if they can shapeshift into a wolf, or grow fangs, just not exactly that, if you know what I mean. Shapeshifters, please restrict what you can shift into, for instance all birds, or just 3 or 4 animals.
Currently, I’d rather you didn’t make more than four characters. PM me if you’d like to make more.

Now you’re over the hard bit, you can get down to making your characters and all the rest of it! If you don’t feel like writing a whole lot, then you’re welcome to leave personality out – I’m sure we’ll get the idea after the first few posts. Please read the rules above, and if I think your character is too powerful, I may ask you to tone their powers down a little (thanks!).
A surname will not be necessary (although you can add a 'nickname' surname if you know what I mean). Please add a number, preferably below 200 to the end of your character's name, adding a 0 on the beginning if necessary (003, 117, 085).
You’re welcome to use your own form, as long as it includes name, age and looks.

"So you want to learn of the Shadows? Well, my friend, you are at the right place. Settle down, and I shall begin my story..."

The world is different now.
Years into the future, humankind have discovered a parallel existence where ghostly imprints of people and places on Earth are mimicked in exquisite detail. These ghosts of people did not think or feel – they were just illusions.
But then, they started to mutate – the colours became more vibrant, the images became more real, until they were just like living and breathing people.
Some people argued that these Shadows, as they came to be known, weren’t real, were just an illusion, others that they loved and felt pain just the same as themselves. But no one could tell for sure.

So, for many years, the Shadows and humans lived in an uneasy peace – each stayed in their own, minded their own business.
Then, the Shadows started to develop powers – strange, magical powers - and the humans started to be afraid.
Eventually, the humans decided that the Shadows were to be kept in a safe house, a house of glass run by computers of the latest technology. The Shadows were tricked, imprisoned in this high-tech palace, and the humans were satisfied. But now, the computers that were once cutting edge are starting to run down, and a strange darkness is slowly infiltrating the two worlds...

The Glass Palace
The ‘palace’ in which the Shadows inhabit is a strange structure, built out of glass and steel. The rooms are constantly changing, which gives the impression that the building is ‘alive’, in a way. The rooms, nicknamed ‘pods’ by some, are circular, built out of white plastic and steel. The furniture is very much the same in each bedroom: a steel bedframe with uniform grey and white bedding, a metal wardrobe and to finish, a glass desk and plastic stool.
There is a strange lack of windows in the place, although much of it is built out of glass.

Dinner will be in an hour's time. Your food is tailored to your needs, so the meals differ between the Shadows.
