There are thirteen of you, and infront of you are twelve gems. A young, spoiled looking girl steps forward and grabs two gems. She immediatelly disenegrates into a pile of ash. You are horrified by the power of the crystal. You look around. Each door has a color correponding with a crystal. You try one. It is locked. What crystal will you choose? You are cut down to a remaining 11 crystals whena boy steps forward and grabs the black crystal. That leaves you with 11 crystals, of the following color: Yellow, Blue, White, Brown, Orange, Red, Green, Light Purple, Dark Purple, Clear, and A gem spinning so fast it seems like an array of colors.

[spoiler=Blur, Tyson Belark]
Name: Tyson Belark
Gender: M
Age: 19
[spoiler='Appearance']Tyson is very muscular. He has a very ripped physique due to the numerous sports he has done. He has dark messy hair. His hair is also somewhat spiky in the front, and comes down to cover the middle of his forehead. His eyes are bloody red color, a very unique color that most do not have. He also has a strong jaw. He is pretty tan for the average American male. Tyson casual wear consists of a T-shirt and dark jeans with sporty sneakers. When the weather is cold, the only difference in his attire is that he normally throws on a zip-up hoodie jacket. Tyson has a cold and calculating look about him, but this doesn't reflect his personality. He is usually never seen with a full blown smile, but can be caught with an occasional smirk, or even more rarely, a grin.[/spoiler]

[spoiler='Bio']Tyson was born into an ordinary family. His father was a hard-working, family-oriented man. His mother was a loving and caring guide in his life. Tyson grew up to be very well-disciplined and hard-working, and because of this he always excelled at whatever it was he tried to excel at. He was a top student in school, and was on both his high school's basketball and track teams. However, Tyson's real interest wasn't in school, but rather, in martial arts. Since he was just a child, he had always practiced wrestling and jui-jitsu to one day test his skill in the world of mixed martial arts. In over twenty amateur fights, he had sustained only a single loss. When Tyson was 18, he had an encounter with another student at his school. This student had provoked Tyson by attacking him because he heard that Tyson could fight, and so Tyson responded by showing him that he could indeed. Tyson was suspended for the incident although he tried to say he fought in self-defense, and was not able to get into the colleges he had applied for. Due to this reason, he had decided that he would become a pro fighter, and he would earn a living that way. However, just before his first professional fight, Tyson disappeared and was never seen again.[/spoiler] [spoiler='Personality']Tyson is a very determined, and hard working guy. He is very disciplined and rarely ever loses his cool (although he has proven in his past that even he can lose it sometimes). Once Tyson puts his mind to something, he will not stop until he sees it through. He always keeps his promises, and is a man with great integrity. Tyson likes to fought for those who cannot fight for themselves, and protect those who cannot protect themselves, a central reason he took up mixed martial arts in the first place. He is a strong believer in fairness, and has a strong moral and honor code. Tyson is not extremely sociable, but he can hold up a conversation if he senses the other person needs to talk. He is very well educated, which makes him very calculating in his approaches. He is also a pretty proud and stubboron guy, making him hard to work with. [/spoiler]

Weapons: Will have a katana as the story progresses. [/spoiler]
[spoiler=Blarkma24, Oswald "Oz" Archer]

Name: Oswald "Oz" Archer
Gender: Male
Age: 15
[Spoiler=Appearance:] Oz is a tall, thin fair-skinned kid with longer brown hair. He wears an old gray sweatshirt reading just "University". He also wears torn black sweatpants, worn out sneakers and a black and white baseball cap. Usually has a pretty straight face with some whiskers growing as he is not really too fussy about what he looks like. He wears a watch on his left wrist, stuck at the time of 4:55 because he never bothered to get it fixed even though he knows perfectly well how to fix it. His hands can usually be found in his pocket when he isn't working, while he's leaning up against a wall, always looking like he is thinking about something.
[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Bio:] Oswald (called just "Oz" by friends) is a kid with only two or three close friends. He is a decent student in school, maintaining a B+ average. There is one thing he loves in life: baseball. He could play all day and every day. The only thing is, he's pretty terrible at it. He would always be picked last for the neighborhood pick-up games. Thus, none of the other kids wanted to be his friend, save a few other rejects. While his grades don't reflect it, Oz is actually a genius, an inventor. He has a knack for finding out how things work. While he values this skill, he'd do anything to trade it in for some baseball prowess.
[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Personality] Oz is quiet and reserved, usually doesn't speak unless spoken to. Even then, it's usually a shrug or a grunt or a one word answer. He is usually someone who stays on the sidelines during a group process. He'll usually just take on tasks individually as he favors independence and just separation from most people in general. He'll always be tinkering with something, however he'll start more projects than he will finish. A lot of times he is secretly envious of people much more successful than him (especially athletically) and can't stand them. Otherwise, Oz is pretty emotionless.

[spoiler=Esplin 9466 Primary, Arashi]
Name: Arashi
Gender: Male
Age: 19
[spoiler=Appearence: ] http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/9198/368617.jpg][/url][/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Bio:] Arashi lived a mostly normal life, went to school, graduated, got a job, got fired; His life changed around when he met a man who showed him how boring his life was. The man was nobody special, but he showed Arashi much about life, including combat; both unarmed and the use of weapons. Dispite his hand to hand skill, he almost never wins bare handed fights, his personality makes it so that his only wins come from fighting far less experienced fighters, or when he blacks out. His first time blacking out was when a friend got stabbed by a man trying to rob them, he put three men armed with knives in the hospital, using his bare hands. It took three profecianal fighters to restrain him without causing permanent injury. (Just so I dont have to specify, one or two would have been enough, however it would require the pro(s) to not hold back.) Although he learned the basics of many styles and weapons, his gift was the rope dart. After only a year of training with this weapon he had obtained a skill level equal to what would be expected after about 3-4 years of training.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Personality] Arashi has a major confidence issue, namely, he has none. Although not always obvious about it, he rarely has anything good to say about himself, even when it comes to his skill with the rope dart. Confidence aside Arashi is a gentle person and has been known to go as far as taking multiple punches to the face without reaction in order to avoud a fight. In terms of non combat, he has a unique ability to quickly adapt to new situations. He has been able to remain completely calm in situations when most people would freak out.[/spoiler]

Accepted. Your gem is the clear one, with the ability of air manipulation. I thought it would go well with your fighting.

[Captain Murphy ☆]

My app is almost finished but... question, our person is just supposed to be a regular guy/girl with a regular boring life? If so then how far should the bio go into? Also, how did we get into the time capsule thing, it would make since that we would be in the time capsule near the time of death wouldn't it. Unless we have a Philip J. Fry type accident...

[MagnetBomb]

We assume we were put in there in a planned sequence. You can be at any point in your life, when you were frozen. Essentially, people who foresaw disaster gathered people they thought would be able to save us when disaster struck, and stuck us Ina desolate wasteland and froze us.

Name: Isaac Hamilton

Gender: Male

Age: 22

[spoiler=Appearence:]
Isaac is well-built, short and has lightly-tanned skin. He has golden blond hair and dark green eyes. He wears a white cotton shirt and a black jacket with diagonal blue stripes, as well as casual red shorts, fluro green sneakers and a black and white checkered beret. He regularly shaves but always has stubble. Isaac is left-handed and wears a wristband on his right arm. He loves his hat and actually has a small collection of them in the inside pocket of his jacket.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio:]

WILL FILL IN LATER

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Personality:]
Unlike EVERYBODY in ANY RP (ah-hmmm), Isaac is bursting with confidence. Sometimes this leads him to do stupid things and run headlong into bad situations, but overall he makes the surrounding area more cheerful. His radiant aura and perpetual smile are both common features of Isaac and he reflects his mood with his hats. This is somewhat complicated so I won't go into detail, it doesn't really affect the story (hopefully), so yeah, watch out for lots of hats.

[вєgσттєη ιηѕαηιту]

Name: Daniel Warren

Gender: M

Age: 16

[spoiler=Appearence][/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio]Daniel grew up bored in school. He was extreemly inteligent and would finish all of his work before most of the other students had even started. He tended to distance himself from others, because he usually envied them. His intellect was not a blessing. It was a curse. He would think so much his brain hurt. Often times he would struggle through the day with a migrane. He still sufferes occasionally with them, and will randomly pass out every now and then. He only had one true esacpe. Fighting. When he fought, his mind was basic, animalistic, and free. He was no longer in pain. He joined underground fight clubs and would often come home with bruises and cuts. His family didn't care about him enough to ask however. One day he ran away from home, and never returned.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Personality] Daniel tends to distance himself from others. When he is forced to interact with others, he tends to be short and often comes across as rude. He is misunderstood however. He really cares about how other people think or feel, he just choses to hide it. He is quick to think his way through situations, and is very adept in fighting and parkour. He hardly meets a challenge he can't face head on. His biggest downfall is that he doesn't handle group situations very well.[/spoiler]

Gem Color requested: Light Purple

Weapons: A Katana

[Kakkon_Wolf]

Name: Lucas Specter
Gender: Male
Age: 17
[spoiler=Appearence:] [url=http://postimg.org/image/x53kpdzk7/][/url] The white-haired guy is the alternate personality[/spoiler]
Bio: Bad student, but by no means stupid, was never interested in being acknowledged by an inconsistent educational system. Had a lot of problems with teachers, parents, classmates - people in general. Bullied, attacked, verbally and physically, but never gave in to the physical aggression and never got into fights, except verbal ones, because he never thought it was worth the trouble. Knew what he was, hardly got depressed, and even then he just drank. Had only a few friends he actually wanted to keep and really did, but after losing them to different "incidents", way too convenient to believe and not getting explanations, because of police incompetence made him realize that he didn't belong in such a place where a person's life only matters to people close to them. After losing almost everything, he decided to keep only himself, since it was too convenient everyone else around him was destroyed, and not him. And went to a laboratory that was believed to cryogenically freeze people in time capsules, and thus was frozen.
Personality: Has Dissociative identity disorder, and thus has one extra personality, with which he can communicate in his mind, there isn't an overblown rivalry between them, since they often come to an agreement and the original personality dominates 90% of the time. His original personality is more of the thinking and more human one, is still an a**hole and takes pleasure in battle, but is hardly reckless, strong tactician but his train of thought wanders too easily. The alternate personality (could be called Specter) is completely inhumane, if he considers someone an enemy, he would kill him as fast as he can, without any thoughts upon the matter. In battle he relaxes his whole body, but uses his senses to dodge or identify weak points in the enemy. Luckily Specter has only taken control once, and even then, Lucas was conscious and took control before Specter could kill anyone.
Gem Color requested: Spinning (or as I like to call it - Spectrum) or Dark Purple, but preferably Spinning.
Weapons: [spoiler= Black and white tactical dagger with custom-made black onyx-infused steel blade] [url=http://postimg.org/image/goo7lmyp3/][/url][/spoiler] and [spoiler=Engraved black and white pistol] [url=http://postimg.org/image/ifq1di9v5/][/url][/spoiler]
Other: Trained senses and reflexes, highly sensitive, above all others, sense of smell. Stealth expertise.

[The Skullbook]

Name: Edgar (Eddy) Maolin
Gender: Male
Age: 17
[spoiler=Appearance] [/spoiler]
[spoiler=Bio] Edgar was never one to make a scene always clouding out the world as living beings annoyed him. Finding escape in literature he became extremely creative with everything he did. From reports to strange training regimens. He never really found himself attached to anything and constantly changed the way he did things. He always made straight A's in school and outside of school he was taught martial arts.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Personality] Eddy is very chilled. He thinks rationally and irrationally. Because of his annoyance to talking people he shows no pity or sadness to others. He can be both insane and merciless at times, but at the same time be thinking up 200 ways of countering or figuring out the problem he has. When he loses the emense amount of patience he has he will finish what he started as fast as possible and show no regret to what he did. Being as he is he has wireless headphones that have been around his neck since forever, touching them is taboo to those that aren't him. He considers them, a pen, and his well preserved notebook to be his items only for his eyes.[/spoiler]
Gem Color requested: Yellow
Weapons: a pair of wireless headphones, his notebook, and his pen. Hoping to do something cool if I get what I want to get here.
Other: The headphones are thick titanium and weigh about 20 pounds out of the sheer amount of metal layers put in it. The pen is a long, old fashioned ink pen with a knife-like end. The notebook is for later on.
