Romance and Sex:

• His first sexual interactions came in his late-teens with Michelle his Girl Friend.​
• After reanimation in the bunker, he as been horny as hell, but has managed to restrain his aggressive urges and relieve his urgent need with the Base Doctor Leslie Hawkins.​

Backstory:

​

Tyrane had it good. Foot Ball Star. Lead String Quarterback in High School. ROTC. A job on the weekends at the local shooting range (Mostly loading shelves and collecting brass)​

​

That ended when his school blew up. Terror attack. "The 42" He was at an away game. His girlfriend Michelle was in the gym practicing (she was Gymnastics Captain). From the police reports 42 schools across America were targeted. Most of them small towns.​

​

He signed papers as soon as he could. He’d always wanted to be military, like his grandfather, and his great-grandfather. His father was a farmer, blown out knee from construction accident. But his uncle was a Marine.​

​

He graduated wearing his Uniform, walked from the ceremony to the Marine Bus, and never looked back.​

​

Sniper, Marksman, C.Q.C.,Hand to Hand, Medic training. He was acceptable with computers as well. He’d started looking at going Ghost Operations. (CIA and such) when the Space Force Command tagged him for an experiment.​

Verified Casualty reports:

• Sniper (+300 meters): 12
• Marksman (<300 Meters): 367
• C.Q.C (<30 Meters): 1287
• Hand to hand Combat: 454
• Friendly Fire: 0

Psychiatric Report:

Although Collins’ aggressive nature is not outside of norms his attack posture when dealing with Terrorist units is enhanced. Most of his hand to hand kills have been deemed unnecessary and he could have subdued the targets. It is noted that he does subdue and restrain women and children when possible.​

​

Tyrande Collins unit wiped out on multiple occasions with him as an only survivor. Sat Comm has verified after action reports and has not found any cause for discipline of Mr. Collins. Psychiatric evaluation has determined he suffers from P.T.S.D. and Survivor’s Guilt. Removing Mr. Collins from Tactical Combat is not advised as it allows him an outlet for his aggression.​

• Name: Alaina Elise Carmichael.
• Nicknames: Lane (Brother), Laney (Mom), Elly (Boyfriend), Sexy Bitch (Girl Friend), Slut (Girl friend - when in the mood)
• Age: 22
• Sex: Female
• Sexuality: Bi Male prefered

Personality
Flirty with the wrong people. Tends to get attracted to the bad boys/girls. Really likes goth girls and biker guys. or anyone in a uniform. RAWR!! Gets used by them for her smarts and skills. In bed and computer.

Low self-esteem: After multiple back-to-back relationships (male and female) that used her computer - and bedroom - skills to get what they wanted and then dumped her, Alaina's self-esteem plummeted. She's mostly accepted the reality that she will never be loved or married. Even though that's what she craves. An old-fashioned mind set she wants to be wifed-up, but she'll never have it so unfortunately she spends more time with computers and a keyboard than she does talking to people. People use her, computers don't.

Backstory
Top of her class. Straight A’s. Fast track to MIT, early enrollment. Pre certification classes. Hell she was taking classes on line she shouldn’t have had access to, except she hacked the system.

Then she made a few mistakes. She hacked the wrong site. Read some files she should never have known existed. Got tagged and woke up in a cell in the middle of fuck no where.

The gun on the table. The hand cuffs holding her to the floor mounted table and she knew she was fucked.

Option one: Agree to an experiment. Get out of it and join some people she never wanted to meet.

Option two: …..

She picked option 1.

Motivation: Survival.

Quirks and Flaws
Inquisitive. Never stops asking questions.

  • A Marine unit came to their rescue and took heavily casualties.
  • To memorialize the Marine unit, she tattooed her right shoulder with their unit tattoo. (See "Description" above.)
    • What Alice didn't know then and -- as of this post -- still doesn't know is that Ty Collins was a member of the Marine rescue squad that had responded to the attack and had actually carried Alice from danger.

• She was 32 years old when she entered stasis the last time.

Romance and Sex:

• Her first sexual interactions came in her mid-teens with other women; exploration more than preference.
• Didn't lose her virginity to a male until she was 22.
• Most of her lovers have been male, perhaps 3-1.
• After reanimation, she was horny as hell but resisted interacting sexually with other Stiffs because of the potential awkwardness of living in close quarters with a former lover.
• Day 14, she became lovers with Kirk "Mac" MacFerguson. They have both sworn a commitment to one another. (Posts 260-271, leapfrogging)

History in the bunker:

[Alice2015]

Rita Reynolds, PhD

• Horticulture Specialist.
• "Shanghaied", not a project volunteer.
• She doesn't like to be called Doctor.

Description:

• Image (face only), image (body)
• 22 years old.
• 5'2", 102#; 32C-23-34; fit, muscular, delicious hourglass figure.
• Dirty blonde hair, somewhat wavy hair reaches to her mid back.
• Green eyes.

About her:

• Last of four daughters from a well-to-do rural family from Central Oregon (Bend, to be precise):
  • Father was a best-selling author of non-fiction books on environmental issues.
  • Mother had been a supermodel, actress, and judge for an amateur singing competition.
  • In addition to all of this, they owned and operated a WWOOF (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms), on which Rita developed her yearning for knowledge in horticulture.
• The family were pacifists:
  • They rarely watched television and only listened to key radio and internet programming that shied away from news about world violence.
  • Rita wasn't naive about such things; she knew and understood the horrors out there in the world. She simply didn't spend time each day keeping up on who was killing whom over what limited resource or ideology.
• She was a swimmer:
  • As a child and young teen, she won medals in swimming.
  • She went to state as a 13-year-old and qualified for the National Junior Team.
  • Swimming was getting in the way of her education, though, and school came first.
• She excelled in school:
  • Her last two years of high school, she took almost exclusively college level courses.
  • She achieved 2 bachelor's degrees in Horticulture by age 19 and a master's by 20.
  • She became part of a research team exploring the use of hydroponics in space.
  • She received her PhD (Hydroponic Applications in Space) at 22.
• She was shanghaied into the Project:
  • A new pandemic was spreading.
  • She went to a clinic to be tested and got what she was told was a flu shot.
  • The next thing she knew, she was being reanimated from suspended animation.

Romance and Sex:

• She's a virgin. Yeah, really; can you believe it?
• Like many girls, her first sexual interaction -- kissing, caressing, and probing, but no oral down yonder -- was with another girl, in her case a cousin; they were both 14 and more curvaceous than most girls their ages.
• She attempted unsuccessfully to give her virginity to a high school jock as a junior. She was so tight that he hurt her trying to get in, and she called it to a stop.
• Since then, she's only ever reached third base -- the hands under clothing part, not the mouths on parts down yonder -- with men with whom she'd had some dates, before her anxiety of going farther caused their relationships to collapse,

History in the bunker:

• Day 5:
  • Reanimated with 5 others: Marcia Weathers, Tyrande Collins, Alaina Elise Carmichael, and two others yet identified.
  • She spent a few hours in the Horticulture Lab, looking over what she would have work with.

  • She joined the NYPD, where she felt at home.
  • She quickly rose to Detective, working Narcotics, then Homicide.
  • On her first Narcotics undercover assignment, she was stabbed by a suspect who she was still then able to chase down and arrest. She was commended for this with a medal.
• The Project:
  • Unknown to her, Marcia's DNA had made it to a classified data base of genetically superior human beings. (No, that doesn't mean superhero; it means DNA free of markers for most serious diseases and ailments.)
  • When the Armageddon Virus was becoming a threat -- initially unknown to the general population -- she was offered a job with pay and benefits she'd never imagined: Overseer at the Richardson International Bunker Complex, which was a classified shadow project of the cryo Project.
  • With others, Marcia was tasked with monitoring dozens of people who were already in stasis.
  • She was incommunicado with the outside after the release of the Virus and the rapid collapse of society.
  • When the time came, the Project Administrators told her what was happening out in the world and offered haer a cryo bed. She took it.

Romance and Sex:

History in the bunker:

• Day 5:
  • Reanimated with 5 others: Rita Reynolds, Tyrande Collins, Alaina Elise Carmichael, and two others yet identified.
  • She told the others that she'd been shanghaied. (The specifics of her story have not yet been posted, but when they are, I will change this post.)
• Day 6:
  • With the others, she learns about the 144 years, the possible extinction of the human race, and the likelihood that they will never escape the bunker (which, of course, will not be the case but is not something the characters know at this time).
  • She has sex with Alaina. (Details begin here.)
• Day 8:
  • Had her first threesome ever with Alaina and Adeline.

The Basics of the Story
​

The Deep Space Travel Research Project:

• The year was 2040.
• The Deep Space Exploration and Settlement Project (DSTRP) -- typically referred to as the Project -- was a top-secret, multi-national experiment in cryogenic stasis.
• It was researching suspended animation for the upcoming Space Force crewed missions to Jupiter's moon, Europa.
• Dozens of volunteers -- nicknamed Stiffs -- were put into stasis in locations around the US.
• They were told they would be in stasis for 9 months. (Some had previously been in stasis for 1 or 3 months.)

The Garden of Eden Project:

• Totally unconnected to the Project was another top-secret operation called the Garden of Eden Program -- typically referred to as the Program.
• The Program filtered through tens of millions of blood samples taken during medical appointments, blood donations, surgeries, etc.
• It searched for people who were considered genetically pure: no markers for disease, ailments, etc.
• Its purpose was to accumulate a list of people who would repopulate the Earth if ever the human race was to become threatened with extinction.

The Armageddon Pandemic:

• Ironically, this need to repopulate would become necessary.
• In 2041, less than a year after the Project's volunteers entered stasis, a disgruntled bioweapons scientist stole and released a lethal virus upon the world.
• The worldwide death toll would ultimately reach over 97%.

The Project and Program are united:

• Those in the know of both the Project and the Program quickly went to work.
• They transferred the Project volunteers to the Richardson International Bunker Complex in the mountains of southeastern Greenland.
• They also shanghaied hundreds of people on the Program's list, filtered out those who were not infected with the Armageddon Virus, put them in stasis, and sent them to the RIBC as well.
• In total, 60 people in stasis were successfully moved to the RIBC. (As of this writing, only 36 remain alive; see "Reanimation of the Stiffs" below.)

World changes:

• 144 years pass; it is now 2185.
• The Armageddon Virus has killed over 7.7 billion people.
• Global warming -- which had already been passed the breaking point -- has melted the entirety of the planet's ice packs and snow fields.
• Sea levels have risen 250 feet, flooding coastal cities and recreating the look of the planet.

Reanimation of the Stiffs:

• A variety of systems failures, followed by an earthquake that rocked Greenland, has cracked the outer wall of the RIBC.
• Flooding into the bunker's lower levels has led to 24 deaths.
• The bunker's Artificial Intelligence -- Bertha -- begins reanimations of key personnel to deal with the issues.
• This ... is their story.

Description
of the
Richardson International Bunker Complex​

Image

• The image only depicts the upper 6 levels.
• There are an additional 8 levels beneath those. These are the cryogenic pod levels.
• More on each of these levels is described below.

Location

• Gunnbjørn Fjeld in the Watkins Mountain Range on Greenland's southeastern coast.
  • The complex is a bunker located at the yellow dot.
  • FYI: A fjeld is a mountain peak that rises up through a glacier, ice pack, or snow field that is permanently located, not seasonal.

Construction and use:

• The bunker was built in the 1990s by the US Government as a security bunker to be used in the case of nuclear war.
• After the COVID-19 pandemic, additional medical facilities were added to deal with biological issues.
• After a larger, more advanced complex was built elsewhere, there were plans to abandon this facility.
• However, when the Armageddon Pandemic struck, the facility was quickly converted to house the cryogenic pods that were part of the Deep Space Exploration and Settlement Project, simply called the Project by most people.

 

[Alice2015]

Doctor Leslie Hawkins

• General Practitioner, civilian.
• Recruited to the bunker's Medical Staff.

• At a summer family reunion, she lost her virginity to a 20-year-old cousin. She was barely 16 at the time.
• She became Tyrande Collins lover almost immediately after reanimation.
• She learned she was pregnant on Day 14. She hasn't told anyone as of the time of this writing.

History in the bunker:

• Day 5: reanimated with 5 others: Rita Reynolds, Marcia Weathers, Tyrande Collins, Alaina Elise Carmichael, and Gregory Young.
• Day 6: fucked Ty Collings in the Gym.

 

[Alice2015]

Greg Young

• Senior Airman, US Space Force; least senior member of the USSF members (so far).

Description:

• Image coming, maybe.
• 6'0", 190#; muscular, with very little body fat.

About him:

• Nothing has been posted about his youth.
• Education:
  • He got a Culinary Certification Degree, thinking he was going to be a reality show television chef.
  • He abandoned that an Associates of Science degree in mathematics.
  • He landed a scholarship and began studying bio-engineering and DNA manipulation.
  • He gained acceptance to two different medical schools but failed out of both:
    • At the first, he simply couldn't handle the load and was told he should seek a different career.
    • At the second, he and several fellow Frat members raped several unconscious coeds at a party. The women couldn't press charges as they were poor witnesses.
    • Nevertheless, he and others faced expulsion. (See "Space Force".)
• Space Force and the Project:
  • Greg was one of the people who'd been identified as having near perfect genetics.
  • When the powers that be learned of Greg's situation, they made him a deal.
  • They got him out of his campus trouble on the condition that he joined Space Force's cryo research program.
  • He was fast tracked through the training and joined the Project.
  • The reasons for him being here -- an accusation of gang rape -- was ignored, although it did make it into his record.
  • He is one of the few people in the bunker who knew the truth of how long the occupants would be here for much longer than 9 months.

Romance and Sex:

• He's a misogynistic, heterosexual rapist.
• He raped Adeline Legrand on Day 6.

History in the bunker:

• Day 5: Reanimated with 5 others: Rita Reynolds, Marcia Weathers, Tyrande Collins, Alaina Elise Carmichael, and Leslie Hawkins.

[Alice2015]

Adeline Legrand

Description:

• Image
• 32 years old (born in 2009)

• Natural redhead; straight, fine hair reaching to midback is often wore in a French braid.
• Hazel-green eyes.
• Light, almost imperceptible freckles on her face; on the rest of her body, they are more obvious.

About her:

• She's a genius, a child prodigy; anything she put her mind to came to her easily and in far less time than it should have.
• She was fluent in 9 languages by the time she was 12-years-old: French (her native tongue) English, German, Mandarin, Euskara (also known as Basque), 2 African Bantu languages, and 2 Innuit languages.
• She got her first college degree -- a bachelor's in science -- at age 12. 9 more degrees, including 3 PhDs, would follow.
• She accomplished all of this while also conceiving of the form of suspended animation in which the bunker's occupants had been.

Romance and Sex ... and rape:

• She is bisexual and has no preference of one gender over the other:
  • When it comes to other women, she likes being with two or more of them at a time.
  • She's very good at cucking cock, though, she can't deep throat an above-average sized one.
  • She hadn't been with another woman for 4 years prior to going into stasis, so when she, Marcia, and Alaina began a sexual relationship, she was very pleased.
• While still in stasis, she was raped by Greg Young (Day 6; see #69):
  • She was reanimated because of the rape. (See "Day 7" below.)

  • Each bedroom is 6'x10'.
  • Each has a twin bed, a small desk and chair, and a tiny wardrobe with drawers and hanging space.
• The 4th wall offers linen closets, counter tops, lockers, and more.
• This 4th wall also includes 2 doors:
  • One goes to the Hygiene Room (toilets, showers, sinks, etc.)
  • One goes to the Gym, which includes all the expected equipment and a sauna.
  • The Gym and Hygiene room are also connected by a door.
• Level 4 was used by the higher-ranking Project workers prior to our characters arriving.

Level 5 "Bunk House": 45 beds

• In this case, the image (linked above) is accurate: 3 high bunks; 15 bunks; 45 beds total.
• Layout:
  • The bunks are nearer to two sides of the room.
  • A third side of the room is a Quiet Area: couches, chairs, bookcase, etc.
  • A fourth side offers linen closets, counter tops, lockers, and more.
  • Also on that wall are doors to the adjacent locker room and Hygiene Room.
• This level was used by the lower-ranking workers prior to our characters arriving.

The Deep Space Cryogenic
Stasis Project (DSCSP)
and
The Garden of Eden
Program (GoE)​

The concept of the DPCSP, simply put:

• The idea was to put human beings in suspended animation for long, timely trips into space.
• The first mission was to be a crewed mission to Jupiter's moon of Europa.
• The stasis portion of the mission was referred to simply as The Project.

Who perfected the concept of suspended animation via chemical cryogenic stasis:

• Many scientists/doctors had their hands in the conceiving, designing, developing, and testing of stasis.
• However, the Project would never have reached fruition if not for the work of Adeline Legrand, PhD.

Non-Human and Human trials:

• Late 2020s: animal testing began. There were failures, of course.
• Mid-2030s: human testing was approved -- and kept highly classified, of course.
• 2038: The first human test subject -- Captain Alice Walker, United States Space Force -- entered stasis for 30 days. The test went off without a flaw.
• 2039: Alice -- along with a few others, including Tyrande Collins, then a USSF Master Sergeant -- entered stasis for 90 days. Again, the test had no problems.
• 2040: Dozens of test subjects entered stasis for 9 months.

The Garden of Eden Program:

• The Program -- not to be confused with the Project -- was totally unconnected to the latter.
• The Program was also highly classified and, actually, illegal.
• It searched through the DNA samples of hundreds of millions of Americans and non-Americans:
  • The samples came from a variety of sources: medical appointments, blood donations, surgeries, health insurance applications, genealogy sites, etc.
  • The goal was to identify people with genetically superior DNA -- no, not people with superpowers, but people whose DNA showed few if any markers for disease, ailments, etc.
  • The government wanted a list of perfect people for repopulating the Earth if ever it was needed.
  • The GoE was simply a thought exercise, and no one ever thought any thing would come of it.

The Armageddon Virus

• 2041: A devastating virus began sweeping the world, making COVID look like a typical winter flu.
• The US Government scrambled to collect as many uninfected GoE identified persons as they could.
• The were shanghaied and shipped -- most of them unconscious, some of them already in cryo -- to the Richardson International Bunker Complex in the mountains of southeastern Greenland.
• The Project volunteers were also relocated to RIBC as well.

Note: for more details on this portion,
see "The Basics of the Story".​

2040:

• The Deep Space Travel Research Project puts United States Space Force volunteers into cryogenic stasis.​
• The Garden of Eden Program is identifying people considered genetically pure: no markers for disease, ailments, etc.​

2041:

• The Armageddon Pandemic begins.​

• The Armageddon Virus kills over 7.7 billion people.​
• Global warming -- which had already been past the breaking point -- continues; the entirety of the planet's ice packs and snow fields melt.
• Sea levels rise 250 feet, flooding coastal cities and recreating the look of the planet.
• Troubles occur at the RIBC:
  • Over the decades, the facility suffers a variety of systems failures, leading to deaths.
  • An earthquake just weeks before the RP's start cracks the bunker's outer wall.
  • Ground water begins flooding the bunker's lower levels.

He also helped her to understand she had issues with guys because they were always given positions of authority over her. She never felt like an equal and she had to prove herself to a 'man'.​

Although she has had sexual relations with men, she was never treated right by them and this reinforced her dislike of the male gender.
