Here are terms that will be used for our story as well as our plots. I did steal some of the ideas cause I aint that original so if ya recognize things you get the pleasure of feeling smarter than everyone else. This is a developing board meaning that as new terms are thought of or as the plot progresses new things will be added so be sure and check back every once in a while.
A.C. - After Crisis
Any time period after the Robot Human War.
Barrier Cities
The Term used to describe the last thirty cities on Earth which are protected by shields using advanced technology.
Beast
An entity that lives inside a human. The entity had died at some point in their life but was given a second chance at life by the Oracle. They can be of any variety, generally the unimaginable (thing you would never though could exist on Earth) and have supernatural abilities.
Before Time
More or less the time before time. It's used to describe any period in which an abnormal creature may have lived (dragons and any other fantasy creature that may enter the rp).
Cyborg
A human who's body is not only composed of flesh, but mechanical parts as well. Humans generally become a cyborg if a part of their body had to be amputated for whatever reason. The machine replaces whatever part of their body they may have lost.
Reapers
A fraction of the national government who's soldiers are specifically trained to eliminate Infecteds.
Hume
What a Beast calls a human.
Infected
A person who possesses a Beast in their body.
Lunar Flower
A vegetation that was discovered in the year 2128 A.D. A white flower than blooms only in the moonlight. It looks almost like it's glowing. The Lunar Flower was used in medicines as a strong healing plant. After the Crisis War these plants became rare and what is left of the world does what it can do preserve what remains of their populations. Only seen in high research facilities.
L.O.P- Law of Preservation
A Law that stated all advanced technology is banned from all other than military services. (Meaning the most advanced thing normal people are allowed is probably shot guns).
Mandar
An Infected who's beast coexists with its host in a safe manner.
Oracle
What the Beasts call the "The Divine One," known to be a merciful goddess who grants followers a second chance at life either because they have earned it to to be given a second chance.
Ravens
An organization that fights to defend Infecteds and believes that they should be given more rights and have just as much right to live on this world as anyone else.
Robot
A machine that is created to carryout a specific duty or purpose. It may or may not have it's own conscious. Most are created for battle purposes. After the Robot Human War, robots were banned from any and all Barrier cities.
Robot Human War
A War that took place in 2936 A.D. which put the world in the sorry state it's in. (To learn more read the about our History)
