Shop Description
Setting
In this B/C shop, you create and play a character with special powers. In our world these people are known as 'evolveds' in a polite way. As freak, monster, or mutant in a less polite way.
When you step in, the world has just seen the first few of these people pop up and everyone is scared. A terrible persecution of those very few led to a few evolveds rising up to strike back with violence.
The conflicts between humanity and evolveds led to several factions being formed. There is the government, with their employed evolveds serving as superheroes and an attempt to boost their popularity. There are also those who oppose that which the government promote, things such as forced labor for evolveds, or registration and their blatant use and abuse.
You play a young evolved, just coming into his own in this dangerous world, and around the second or third generation. Where as before you there are only a handful of evolveds, your generation is the turning point. More and more will continue to pop up, their powers discovered during puberty.
You can become a superhero or a villain, entirely dependent on your actions.
Why does this attract the player?
The player will play a character in this young and dangerous world. The main focus will be character development based on ethical and philosophical issues. Is someone inherently good or evil? How do they come to their choices and solutions? Through various quests, mission and experiences the player will be given choices which will shape their characters and their futures while they explore the world more in-depth.

Story Introduction
Setting
We all dream of having special abilities. The ability to snap our fingers and have our work immediately done. The chance to just fly away. We all wish for something more than who we are at times.
We have all read fictional accounts of Mary Poppins, or the XMen, or Harry Potter, and have all at least secretly wished to be able to do some of the fantastic things these detail.
None of us think of the devastating consequences of actually GETTING our wishes. How the world responds, negatively or positively, to those of us with additional power. How now, just because we have power, we can't use them for ourselves alone as our daydreams have it, but everyone seems to think we must choose sides. Everyone thinks we must be super evil or super good, and something.... extra human.
We're not, we're ordinary people. But this is what we live with.
How are you handling it?

How to Participate
Whether you're interested in pretty art alone, or in fun RP without many restrictions, or in highly defining a character in a complicated world through literate RP, we have all three!
There are two ways to get a character from our shop, either in a normal flatsale for people scouting for good art and/or minor, fun RP and one for those who are interested in heavy role-play opportunities.
Flatsales
- B/C Shop enthusiasts who are out scouting for good art and RP'rs who want a relaxed environment can come in and scout out for flatsales with premade characters.
Flatsales and their previews will be announced several days before the flatsale. Flatsales will always be prompted, but this does NOT suggest RP requirements... See rules for what we consider to be active in shop. Flatsale price is 8K for the first stage only. Art for the other two stages are 8K each as well. That makes a total of 24k. Three total stages are promised to individuals who pay and who meet at least the minimum participation requirements. Premade flatsales will be had at the artist's inspiration. Usually someone showing some interest does it for her. If you only lurk, then we won't know!Roleplay
- Our unique roleplay system will allow the player to follow his own course at his own pace. You will decide how much you RP and when without any pressure from us.
We have a tiered system with many preset prompts and various freeplay prompts. This will allow for greater freedom from your side, while still guided only in the vaguest sense by us. But when you do something or what you write is completely up to you.
Growth.
- We have several different kind of characters available, depending on activity. Perks for roleplaying are: faster time to request art, as well as extra art outside the regular growths.
a. Roleplay casuallyCharacters who are unofficially role-played can request a growth once every six weeks.
b. Roleplay dedicatedlyOfficially role play characters can request a growth once every four weeks, after basic RP requirements have been met.
c. Don't roleplay at all.Growings: Characters who are NOT officially role-played can request a growth once every eight weeks.
Each growth costs 8K for full body or 5K for waist up. You can have two growths, for a total of three art pieces. By roleplaying and doing extra missions, you can accumulate credits to exchange for extra art.
Role-play enthusiasts.
If you really like the shop and the concept, you can start playing without an official character. However, you are required to either participate in a flatsale to obtain a character or to bribe the artist. Please note that you can advance only up to level 5 if you do not have an official character, because that is the official growth level.
Warning: Once again, our artist is inspired by what she sees in role-play and in shop, but if you go this way, please do not expect a custom created character. Do not get over attached to looks. Also, characters written unofficially are subject to having shop managers ask for changes in them once they are official, should there be any issue with the character.
Bribes
A different way to get a character is to send a bribe to the mule. PM the mule with whatever amount or items you offer, and our team will get back to you as soon as possible. Please also post in thread that you have sent the mule a PM so we know to check.

Sales
Next sale: TBA
Sale type: Writing Sale
Price: 8k (upon winning)
Will be featuring: Four females.
Rules:
- Flatsale will last 24 hours starting from the designated time. Participants must choose from one of the prompts below and must submit their entry by PM. The length of the entry must be 300 - 1500 words, but quality is more important than quantity.
Everthing about the character can be determined by the player, this includes powers, as well as possible outward mutations, unless otherwise specified. These will be incorporated in the design for the next growth.
After the deadline is over, judges will deliberate, and the winners will be notified within 24 hours. After that you have another 24 hours to send the trade. We expect some kind of participation from your side within seven days, unless you have specified you do not want to roleplay.
If roleplay designated characters are not picked up within a month, a refund will be made, and the character will go up for sale once more. If there is not enough interest in the flatsale characters, already established writers may pick one up if they so choose.
Prompt
Your character has just discovered they are an evolved, but... uh-oh! So did everyone else! What do you do now?

Rules
1. Behave yourself courteously. Both in your thread behaviour and during roleplay. 2. We need you to show activity in thread at least once a week.
3. Every action has a consequnce. If your character spits our super powerful villain NPC in the face, said villain will not hesitate to kill your character. Game over.
Information
PowersDuring a flatsale, you can choose your own powers for your character. All character powers must be unique. The exceptions to these rules are the elemental powers: Fire, Water, Air, Earth. The latter which is divided into two elements: Earth Control and Plant Control.
The second exception are the mind powers: Telekinesis, Empathy and Telepathy. For the latter ones, a dice roll system will be installed and abilities will be severely limited. Telepathy does not equal mind control and will be limited to only communication between minds. Empathy will be limited to the ability to feel emotions and precisely gauge their moods. However, these kind of powers will not be a good primary power.
If the player shows no interest in the shop for over one month, the unique concept of the power will be revoked, and it will become available to anyone.

FAQ
Q: Can we have more than one character?
A: Yes, you can. But only if your first character is roleplayed and has already had one growth. There also must be at least two flatsales in between the aquirements. (Bribes can be done at any time). So if you get a character in flatsale 1, you may not snag another one in flatsale 2 or 3. Instead you have to wait until flatsale 4.
Q: Can I have more than two characters?
A: Yes, you can. However, only if one character is completely grown and the other must have already had one growth. (See previous question)
Q: Do I HAVE to be a superhero or supervillain? I don't like action stuff.
A: Well... no. You don't. This roleplay is focused on character development, which happens through various way. However, the setting is such that violence is a very realistic part of the world. Imagine this occuring in our own society, and look at precedents throughout history. Man always fears what he does not know and violence ensues. I find it intrigueing to watch intolerance, but--- off topic.
No, you don't have to be a superhero or supervillain. However, you will need to develop your characters powers and their bonds with others. You dont have to go out and perform heroics or crimes, but things could get rather boring, very soon.
Q: What's this about credits and extra art?
A: We like to reward our roleplayers. By doing extra missions, roleplays and taking on more responsibility, such as guiding new trainees, you will be given OOC credits. A certain amount of these can be traded for either extra art (for free, and does not count as growth) or for... certain other goodies. ninja

Crossfade & Legion
The two fearless and young superheroes have bravely explored an abandoned and haunted hospital just when all hope seemed lost and all vigour abandoned. For following their mission in the absence of proper guidance, we commend them.

THE OWNERS
SSJ Girl - The creator, fantastic artist, BBCoder, and RP writer. I'm more of the artist and manager here, though. Ariya (see below) is the real RP star here. Anyway, I live in the Netherlands, which is teensy *wheep* country in Europe although I really like it. I have a major problem placing commas, so you can brick me if necessary. Uh, I like it if you guys are active and will often reward you with a sneak sketch. (Bwhahaha) I really like Flashcharge and Solarduct the most. Although I'm a big fan of the Dark Alliance and all the NPCs we HAVEN'T introduced yet. Yes, I do like to think of myself as evil. Whee!
AriyaLauna - Also known as SSH (Super Secret Helper) Shhh, don't let her know that you know her secret identity! Is the almost-23 year old girl co owner and role play coordinator of the shop who currently resides in Florida, USA. She's likely the cause for the problems all the characters go through. (She SAYS she's on the good guy's side, but her ACTIONS prove otherwise..hmm....needs more observation...) ((*points at the chibi* Muwhaha! Ariya SWOONS over Photon! Bwhahaha!))THE COPYRIGHT
Okie dokie, so if you totally try to steal anything, you will definitely be hammered! Why? We have worked really hard on the shop idea and artwork. The writers of Chronicles of Evolution all have their own original ideas. Don't steal our concepts! Any questions? PM THE MULE!
