"  Drag my tongue across the sand, so happy just to crawl across the land. Soon I'll be the best around. I'm gonna keep my plunder underground. Hard flesh cold against the rain, dust billowing around my brazen brain. Saw off all my stinking limbs. Blood dripping down my sunken money chin.  "

 Welcome to Distant Past, an RP inspired by a song sharing the same name. In this RP, the plot will center around a mystical happening across the world. A strange set of viruses seems to be finding people to 'infect'. No, it is not a disease, nor is it contagious. The string of viruses is known as the Beato Plague. The OC you use doesn't have to have this 'infection'. Now, onto what this 'infection' is. This may seem confusing. Basically, people are specially chosen by 'what will currently be unknown' and are infected with a virus, shown through appearance and sound. When I mean appearance, I mean it can be shown through some sort of an alter in their appearance. For instance, an eyeball changing it's appearance, let's say to a spinning gear. For sound, it can change your voice. The change must involve what the power given does. For example, if I had a character who was chosen to have a virus that involved flying, she might grow wings or her eyes might be a light blue or have stars spinning inside them. Or her voice might become wind-like. Still confused on what the hell I mean? I don't know how exactly to explain it further, so sorry. But there's one catch. These powers are outlawed, and anyone seen with these powers will be sentenced to death by the government.

 Known Beato viruses ~

 '''Toon - This virus gives the user large rabbit-like ears and their color scheme is changed to just black, grey, and white. Their voice changes to just sounds, no words.'''

 '''Canistrial - Grants earth magic and the ability to harness certain animals' appearances and powers. Along with a few dark magic spells. It also gives the user fox ears and a tail.'''

 '''Chrysoprase - Grants a few magical abilities but also makes voice glitchy and cracking a lot. Also, when tapping the user's noise, it honks.'''

 '''Aevum - Basically, mild time powers, such as temporary stops, reversals, and limited travel. It gives the user an odd shimmer, almost a glow (like when you put a flashlight under your thumb, but more like sunlight through clouds) and gives the user's voice a slight echo.'''

 Gleoiterus - Eyes enlarging, higher pitch in the voice, skull becoming more sperichal and chubbier face, more facial muscles.

''' Sveliomus - It makes your body slipper and slick, and your tongue long. You can camoflauge, but when you feel frightened or angry, your body can change shape too. When this happens, your eyes drain color until becoming completely black, where you will then fall unconcious. When the user is provoked or scared, they go on a rampage and slaughter. '''

''' Citrine - Grants one or two wings, as well as altered skin and hair. One of the user's eyes are turned into a gear, while their voice becomes stuttery and glitched. It also gives them homicidal thoughts. '''

''' Transtidapoda - The User's arm (can be left or right) would be covered by diamond shaped rocks, while the user would have porcupine needles running down their spine. The user's legs are replaced by three tentacles for each spot a leg would be. The user can grasp objects with their tentacle suckers, and have light control over water. Someone with this disease seems to always want fish, and fish only. Their thought of the government is that it's completely useless, and if they think you're infected, they'll assume you as better. '''

 - Obviously you can make custom viruses -

 Re-reading this, oh my, this is horribly confusing. I am very sorry.
