Several years after the main timeline…

Pet Shop and NEST continued their struggles, both desperately trying to overpower the other with their own morals. Each battle, each small journey into the outside world, NEST had to cover up before the media could report an insect-human sighting. Just one time could be disastrous— but no one can keep that up forever. NEST slipped up, a too-eager reporter leaked the story, and all of a sudden, insect humans were top news. As the conflicts between NEST and Pet Shop grew more heated, harder to cover up, and the stories were already out, more and more of the clashes were recorded and leaked to the media. NEST redoubled their efforts to gather and safeguard as many insect humans they could, and Pet Shop did the same. But now there was a third party: the government. Agents scouted as many areas as they could reach, searching for insect humans to take into custody. Some of them went willingly, others… not so much.

NEST tried to negotiate with the government, Suchan Jang its spokesperson, but Pet Shop had other plans. Breeder released feed-trained insect humans in the capital, given only the orders to kill. Unknowing that NEST and Pet Shop were two different organizations, the government’s forces, sure they had been betrayed, were ordered to wipe out the attacking insect humans as monsters, wild beasts. Suchan Jang was caught in the crossfire.

Thus began the active hunt for insect humans, under the presumption that they were all beasts. Those that hadn’t found or been found by NEST hid themselves away, or tried to escape into neighboring countries who were far less aware of their existence. Pet Shop fought back while NEST hunkered down and fortified their defenses— but eventually, Pet Shop’s numbers were whittled down, Breeder killed, and his forces devolving into chaos.

There was a period of peace, the government sure they had neutralized the threat. But when an event at a nearby elementary school escalated too far, everything turned around again. A child had stood up to her bully, but in doing so, two pairs of iridescent wings were revealed, hidden beneath her jacket. The girl was immediately detained, and the hunt was back on again, far more covertly.

NEST had slowly become used to the peace, and while still wary, were nowhere near as well-protected as they had once been. Government agents infiltrated, and when they were discovered, were detained and imprisoned humanely. However, when the government hadn’t heard from their agents in too long, they assumed that they were dead, and sent in troops to eradicate NEST.

The protection units did their best to fend them off, but the civilians were in panic. The government had blocked as many of the secret entrances as they had found out about, and the others were packed with insect humans trying their darndest to save themselves. They ran, many of them carrying children and with a spouse— some of the children not their own, just unlucky kids who had gotten a faceful of the dreaded Jungle Juice that had started this whole mess.

Some of them escaped. Most of them did not.

Now, ten years later, the buzz about insect humans had died down. Small groups of them had gathered, visionaries aligning them to form new bases, modeled after NEST. Insect human scientists worked together to recreate the Cinderella formula, the coveted cure. Hidden, underground bases were founded all over East Asia, growing into a network of small towns, hidden from the outside world.

But of course, not all the insect humans were pure of heart, just trying to build a new life. Some were bitter about the Great Entonoid Genocide, and became Pet Shop sympathizers, forming gangs with others and ex-members who wanted to form a new world where strength dictated all, or just stewing in their hatred for years. Others still were government agents, willing insect-human prisoners who had agreed to infiltrate the HIVE to pass updates to their superiors in exchange for amnesty.

And the majority. Young people desperate for an escape. Not so young when turned that they’re used to it, but not so old that they’ve accepted that they’ll be entonoid forever. These college age students enrolled in the university in one of HIVE’s small towns, named NEONEST, after the original. The valedictorian from each grade receives the cure, becomes human again. Many of the interconnected towns also have similar academies, offering Cinderella to the highest performer.

The tensions are growing, as each individual puts in their bid for survival. Will you strive to become human through petty, educational competition? Will you seek to steal the cure for your government, convinced they could find a way to manufacture more? Or will you wait for the right moment with your comrades in arms to rise up, and make the world a place where insect humans rule based on strength alone? Or maybe, just maybe, you’re just along for the ride, an adrenaline junkie whose entonoid transformation was the best thing that ever happened to you.

Welcome to NEONEST, new freshman. Which path are you on?

And welcome to the world of Jungle Juice, a webtoon where a bug spray advertised to kill all insects had unintended side effects— and ended up merging the DNA of the insect killed with the nearest human. Your character should be ~18-22 to be a freshman at NEONEST, either merged with an insect at a young age or being the child of an insect human (or two, in which your character may be a human-insect hybridization between two insects). They would have been 8 to 12 during the Entonoid Genocide. You don’t have to research your insect(s) extensively, of course, but please be realistic. They won’t be able to control fire because they were merged with a fire ant, but they could shoot painful acid like a fire ant.

Alrighty folks, here goes nothin’! The first Night RP in God knows how long pft anyway we’ll see if I can keep this running longer than a week but hey yk what low pressure, join if you feel like, whatevs

If you’ve got any questions about the series, @Schrift and I are both well-versed in its lore. Any questions about the plot, hit me and I’ll do my best to answer.

Rules:
-Pokecharms rules (gasp, no way!)
-Romance is allowed, keep it PG-13.
-Ya don’t have to be an entomologist but keep the powers realistic, think of ‘em like insect-based mutant quirks from MHA.
-On that same note, please don’t push to be OP. If you’re a dragonfly mutant that can fly really fast and can see well, that’s cool, makes sense; but your speed won’t guarantee an auto-hit on whoever you target and your sight won’t let you see through things or predict exact positions without fail. This is an RP, it’s fun! Not a competition.
-Put “frog legs” in your bio to show you read the rules ♥
-No character limit, just make sure you can handle all of em!
-The majority of the plot will be taking place within the freshman class, but if you want to make older or younger side characters or NPCs, go for it! Any and all creativity to worldbuild or forward individual character plots is totally welcome!
-This’ll be a fairly classic superpowered school RP, but will have a lot more freedom, be more character-driven. The school life could delve into chaos at the whim of any character! Go wild with motivations, bonds, and future (evil or otherwise >:)) plans.

Alrighty fam, here’s my character, just had a few things to finish up when I posted the thread soooo here is the finished product! I know I said you don’t have to study your insect(s) but I’m a nut so I did cough anyways
Name: Minji Sun
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Insect(s): Titan beetle
Sexuality (optional): Straight

Personality: Minji has what some may call a “devil may care” attitude while others consider it just plain obnoxious. She’s a lenient, tolerant, go-with-the-flow kind of person but can be snide and purposely irritating. She’s also extremely lazy, though she considers it efficient, as she tries to put in as little effort as possible for the maximum output. In a school environment, she will often fall behind in grades— not because she doesn’t get it, but because the high scores on her tests does not make up for the fact that she never completes any assignments. Being merged with an adult male titan beetle, though, means that the beetle’s mating drive is now a part of her, which she controls as much as she can, but still has a tendency to flirt far more than she should.

Appearance: A hefty, tall frame for a girl at about 5’10”, wiry with muscle and broad-shouldered, though it does nothing to detract from her developed curves and a face that would no doubt be quite attractive without her insectile features. Minji’s eyes are dark but playful, with long lashes and honeyed skin, and her dark reddish-brown hair hangs in an endearingly tangled flop just above shoulder length. Spiky brown antennae hang lazily over her forehead, though their jagged edges are almost menacing when paired with the fierce mandibles like bolt cutters protruding from her face on either side of her mouth.

-mandibles capable of snapping steel bars
-antennae provide fantastic sense of smell
-flight; dark brown elytra conceal gossamer wings, though it’s difficult to sustain air time
-hard-to-pierce exoskeleton
-very strong grip strength, can cling to vertical surfaces easily and hard to be pried off
-able to lift 850x body weight
-breathes through pores spread throughout body rather than lungs; can push air out through these pores to make an intense hissing sound
-spikes on limbs, as well as extra, insectile legs growing from her sides
-doesn’t need to eat except to replenish energy after arduous flight
-unfortunately, all this weight and armor does make her slower and lethargic; she became rather lazy and sleeps a lot
-intense mating drive

Affiliation: None; ex-NEST, Pet Shop sympathetic but not strongly opinionated.

Minji was born human, but unfortunate timing with a huge beetle her little brother had caught, a panicked flight on the insect’s part, and an insectophobic mother walking into the room with her newest purchase of glorified Raid left her a grossly altered person by age 8. With a mother that now feared to look at her and a young brother who doesn’t know what he did to tear the family apart, Minji was glad to go with the Nest recruiter that came by the house once her condition was found out. She lived in a NEST orphanage with other unfortunate entonoid children, where they were well cared for, for two years before the Genocide occurred.

When that happened, the children were some of the last to be evacuated due to widespread panic, and the age group with the highest death toll. Minji had found herself grabbed by a wasp-man she didn’t know, along with one other entonoid child, and pulled outside the compound, where everyone was flying, running, climbing, or camouflaging in different directions. The wasp-man was able to rescue both children, including Minji, but died in an erratic flight trying to lead the government agents away.

Minji returned to the home she had been born in, and covered her more obvious features with heavy clothing, a beanie, and a mask. There she laid low for years, enduring the avoidant gaze of her mother and the pestering questions of her brother, until word of HIVE’s existence reached her ears. The idea of not having to hide from her own family anymore, to return to a place like NEST, was intoxicating, and though she could understand the anger of Pet Shop sympathizers and the fear of those searching for a cure or aligning with the government, Minji’s newfound freedom in HIVE was enough of a change that she didn’t end up leaning far to any side. It would become a home, and NEONEST would be her entertainment. No more hiding. No more questions. She could show herself now, and that was enough.

Other: frog legs :)

Draco Nightshade Reserved place in Nightshade rp.... Nightshadeception.
Name: Shiro Scarlet
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Insect(s): Giant Darner
Sexuality (optional): Straight
Personality (optional): Shiro is not a white or black character, Just like any other human being. Fascinated by a certain Hero that existed in the path he has similar mindset of protecting people. He doesnt see anything good in fighting, even if they are in the right for what humans did to them, yet he is not defenseless.
He seems to not understand some things about human society, as most of his life he spended with Grandpa at the Hive town, however he is quite smart guy and understanding as well, not judging others for what they believe but ready to protect what he believes in and he is capable to kill for it as well. He might also have small temptation to eat frog legs due to his dragonfly genes.
Appearance: a Young Male with Icy-blue hair and a greenish-yellow eyes. He stands for around 6 feets to 6'1 tall, Weighting around 150lbs. He is wearing a typical NEONEST hoodie, which is green on a chest and back, with a good itself and arms being white. He also is wearing blue jeans and black sport shoes.
He is wearing wingerless gloves on both of his hands, that are supplied with small pieces of armour and act like a knuckle dusters. He also has a Blue dragonfly necklace on around his neck.
Well hidden in his trousers, Shiro posseses medium long blue, Strong tail, and two pairs of very strong and sturdy wings on his back hidden in his hoodie, that was made in a way that he can release his wings without any worry that he may destroy his clothing.
Abilities/Mutations (up to you how much detail to go into):
-Wing Manifestation
-Powerfull bite
-360-degree vision
-Enchanced Agility, Strenght, Endurance and Durability
-Lunglessness (unsure, possibility)
-Wallcrawling
-High-speed Flight
Affiliation (govt., NEST, Pet Shop gang, none, or undisclosed): Currently Nest
Backstory (optional, but recommended— doesn’t have to be long): Shiro doesnt remember much of a life without his wings, as he used his Jungle Juice at a really Young Age and he gained a physiology of one of the biggest, if not the biggest kind of Dragonfly from Europe. He didnt feel like monster and thought of his wings as beautiful. He was quickly found by a Nest and joined an adoptive family, living together with his Grandpa.
Most of his life was at first in peace, and as a still very small kid he saw one of the Nest officials, known as Suchan as a great Hero. He heard of his deeds and was an idol kid wanted to become as they had very similar, though not identical physiology.
All of it went downhill... His Hero died.. His home was destroyed.. Kid didnt understand why back then. He slowly grew up and now as an adult has a lot on his head.. He wants to be like his Hero. Protect both Insects and Humans.. But he has his own share of trouble, school, poor living... And a very sick Grandpa.
Other: I first thought of Character before Reading Webtoon and didnt knew Suchan was a dragonfly too.. Sorry for spoiler to anyone not Reading the Webtoon.. Do it.
Anyway, It was a problem for me but finally decided that Suchan was a great idol of my character. Person he strives to be for the others.

Previously Deathstalker62
Name: Korin Yujin

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Insect(s): Locust

Sexuality: Straight

Personality: I'd like to have Korin's personality form throughout the RP, if that's alright.

Appearance: Korin is of caucasian descent with ocean-blue eyes and gold-blond hair. His stature is lanky and slender, with him standing at 6ft while 'disguised', since his legs would be completely folded up in his pants in that outfit. His true height is between 8-9ft with his legs fully unfolded. Korin's upper body is mostly human, while his lower half is entirely locust-like. The only non-human things about his torso is the carapace (and the wings underneath) on his back, his antennae, his mandibles and his two sets of arms, both of which are long enough that, if you put the length of both together, they'd be as long as his legs. His clothing choice typically consists of sweaters, t-shirts or tank tops (all of which have space for all arms, either by having two holes on each side or by just having large enough open space. His pants consist of either shorts or jeans (just jeans in his disguise) as leather is, so far, the only type of material to not be torn to pieces by the spikes on his legs. If he doesn't need to disguise himself, Korin just likes to walk barefoot. If he does, he just goes for boots tucked into the pants so it completely hides his legs.

Abilities/Mutations:
- Korin is capable of eating just about anything, organic or inorganic. However, he does also need to eat his own weight's worth of food every day in order to stay fed.

- Locusts are surprisingly strong, both in their arms and especially in their legs. This also translates to Korin, with his arms having inhumane strength but not as much as his legs.

- Korin has gained super-sensitive hearing, as the hearing of a Locus is often compared to that of a human ear or a microphone. This also means loud or high-pitched sounds are effective against him.

- Locust Mandibles are capable of not just holding things in place but are meant to either cut or crush held things within them. This also translates to Korin's mandibles.

- Korin is quite sturdy, not just from his skin having been fused with chitin but thanks to having fused with a Locust, he has also become waterproof and immune to liquid poisons.

- A Locust's antennae are not just wind-sensitive, but chemical-sensitive as well, allowing him to pick up if something has been poisoned or if a chemical gas is in the air ahead of time. (As well as granting him enhanced senses and reflexes, of course.)

- There have been reports of Locusts crossing entire seas in just a few days. Naturally, this translates to Korin, who isn't just capable of flying quick, but also for very long.

- A Locust 'breathes' through several spiracles, openings on its body and even has an air sac and, using this, can survive several minutes underwater. This, naturally, also translates to Korin.

- Locusts aren't known to be runners, as they are more leapers. Korin himself thereby also can cover more distance using leaping and flight, but his ground mobility is still pretty good given his strong locust legs.

Affiliation: Undecided/Undisclosed

Backstory:
Yujin stems from a lower class family, one who owned a semi-small farm and whose fathers had generations of farming in their bloodline. The property kept getting passed from one son to the next, with his grandfather having recently passed and his father taking him, his brother and his mother along to follow in his footsteps. While not being off very wealthy, they could afford themselves some amount of luxuries now and then. Flip phones, a CRT TV, a Radio and, of course, Jungle Juice. The very product they needed for the insects that were to raid their property and eat away at their crops.

It was at sundown one day, the evening was coming to a close and the night was starting to settle in. Yujin, his brother and his father were hard at work, keeping some bottles of Jungle Juice and other insect spray at their side, adding them to the water hoses planted into the ground so they'd spray at the swarms of locusts that his father knew were coming, seeing as how his fellow farmers warned him of them. He figured that, seeing how they could get their hands on this new spray, they could try it out and see if it'd really work.

Unfortunately for them, it was already too late. Because of the shadowed darkness of the night sky, they could not see the flying cloud of blackened clumps flying towards the field in the distance. And so, the three had to fight them off using the bottles of Jungle Juice each one had carried on them. The insects had died, for sure, but.. they had also begun changing. Severely. From the amount of locusts killed, they had infused into their body. Shifting. Morphing.

When the three came to their senses again, the mother stood in shock over them. Giant Wings. Mandibles the size of the very bug spray bottles they had kept. Insectoid Limbs. They had turned into the very thing they tried to keep away. Locusts. Despite this, their bond was still strong. Even though these were strange changes.. they all had to live with it now. And live with it.. they tried. Sadly, trying to feed three Locust Entonoids was a tough challenge. And so, Seiro, Yujin's father, would often come up with little to no produce to sell. They only had enough plants kept to support two of their newly mutated family, not three. So, upon drawing straws.. Korin was the one who fell short. He was sent off to NEONEST, something that his mother had heard of thanks to their connections. And the rest is history.

Other: Some think Frog Legs can leap a far distance.. clearly, they've never seen a Grasshopper. I mean, it's in the name.

Schrift

Previously Schrift007
Character Sheet:

Name: Eli (Yup he wasn't given a last name, only a first name by

Age (18-22 for freshman): 20 years old

Gender: Male

Insect(s): African Giant Millipede/Amazonian Giant Centipede (yes he was born a human insect hybrid)

Sexuality (optional): Bisexual

Personality (optional): Eli is a man made of pure hard work and simply works hard with his goal not being results but to just better himself in the end. He's a massive book worm and can be seen spending hours in the library studying, just studying and studying. Though common to believe he's a genius, or to think he's one of the highest in the class when it comes to academics... well not exactly. You see he's quite per say... well school isn't the easiest for him. It just seems no matter how hard he tries he crumbles at school, and on every single test. It seems he just can't get higher than a D- which isn't exactly great for his confidence. However this doesn't hold him back as he doesn't give up. Something you'll realise quickly with him is that he just doesn't give up, he's a tenacious bastard with no sense of quitting whatsoever. When it comes to people he tries to act brotherly around them, even though he may not be the oldest he often tries to care for people. He tries to bring comfort to others and often time finds himself putting others before himself a lot. In terms of ambition, Eli doesn't strive to be the strongest or greatest; Eli strives to simply become a professor at HIVE. When it comes to combat, he doesn't shy away from using his abilities and often seems to rely on them a bit too much. Though a bad habit of his is his impulsive behaviour when annoyed. He just can't help but throw firsts with those who get on his nerve which just shows as brotherly and mature as he tries to act he still has a long way to go.

Appearance: Standing at roughly 5'7, soft smile and dark purple hair with patches of red and specks of yellow, Eli's appearance seems somewhat odd. His face being relatively human, with pale white skin as if he's never seen the sun in years. A pair of bright green eyes, like fireflies in the night adorned with a pair of rectangular black framed glasses. Though it seems only parts of him are human as many other parts seem very... insect like per say. The first thing you'll notice is his neck is a very dark black, with brown highlights. This goes throughout his body, namely his arms, legs and torso. It seems that the only part that doesn't have this colouration is his hands, feet and face plus a few other bits and bobs. Looking closely you'll realise that these aren't skin but actually coils, millipede segments specifically. Essentially Eli compresses his limbs a lot so they are regular human size and not their fully extended size. Contracting muscle and all to give this somewhat human appearance. When fully extended his arms, legs, torso and neck respectively extend to, 47, 58, 36 and 5 meters. Giving him the total height of 99 meters tall. Though on the underside of his arms, back of his legs, front of his torso, and on the side of his throat you may notice these yellow bands that cover his body. Like rows of bamboo, these are actually millipede legs, yes they do open allowing him to have some extra grip, Eli doesn't tend to open them since it leave him open to taking more damage as beneath these are pink fleshy bits of his body which are slightly softer than human skin and can be damaged easily. On his back you will notice these two large antennae, gold in colour they point downwards though are fully capable of movement. However Eli normally keeps these covered most times until it's time for battle. Eli's clothing involves a lot of long sleeve clothing, with his usual attire being a white shirt with short sleeves. Ontop of that he has a normal lab coat with the sleeves rolled up to his elbow, with the bottom often consisting of baggy trousers. In terms of footwear, Eli wears a pair of hightop shoes.

Abilities/Mutations (up to you how much detail to go into):
Milipede Mutations-
Extension:
Legs, arms, torso and neck are all capable of extending and moving freely in midair. This doesn't make him immune to physics, meaning if he decides to fully extend and be 99 meters tall chances are he won't be able to maintain proper balance with such thin legs and tall body. Though when limbs extend, he can choose to either do it slowly coil by coil letting it wrap around victims or he can choose to let it explode out in one long shot allowing him to deliver a punch equal to that of a great white shark biting down. Sure it's not the strongest punch in the school but it's definitely a mean one if it catches you off guard. His limbs seem to also possess a certain springy/elastic quality making them somewhat unique. However at the risk of over stretching, Eli's plating may separate revealing a pink fleshy layer. Not exactly good and if he decides to go past that he may even risk tearing his arms completely off.
Regeneration: If those millipede legs for whatever reason are broken off, Eli can easily just regrow them. Not instantly but the process isn't as long lasting as you'd expect. For larger parts of his body, he can also regenerate them, to the point where he can regenerate most of a limb if it's damaged however if he fully loses a limb then chances are he won't be growing it back. Vital organs aswell don't seem to be affected by his healing factor meaning if they are damaged he will need medical care.
Millipede armour: those black parts around his body are much much more durable than human flesh. Making them resistant to slashing attacks, and blunt force. Fire is very much effective against his armour and may even weaken it, though he can withstand it for a brief moment. However his true defence comes out when he fully extends and rolls himself up into a ball. Burrowing into the ground and creating this circular spiral allows for him to block attacks that are incoming pretty well. And by interlocking the legs inside this mini dome spiral creation, he can provide much more defence against attacks while he rests up a bit. Though note while durable it isn't invincible and can still be broken through.
DIGGER: Eli's millipede anatomy makes him surprisingly good at digging, well he can burrow quiet easily thanks to the help of the legs on his limbs. Fun fact, millipedes do in fact burrow when they feel threatened.
Toxin Secretion: Eli's final millipede ability, millipedes are able to produce a toxin that is effective against living creatures. When sprayed from his body, it causes irritation in the skin and depending how much of a dosage you get it can go anywhere from a simple stinging nettle sting to feeling like your skin's on fire. Though the effect isn't permanent, and usually wears off in a few minutes, a shot to the eyes can leave enemies temporarily blinded.

**note that while he does have all these abilities that doesn't make him some combat god meaning while he may be proficient when using some of these skills that doesn't mean he's experienced in using all of them.

Centipede Mutations-
Antennae: Those Antennae on his back are capable of detecting vibrations which is useful for him, however it is most useful on the ground where he normally uses his antennae in the soil to detect nearby movements. However this also means that he is susceptible to being grabbed there causing him a great amount of distress.

Affiliation (govt., NEST, Pet Shop gang, none, or undisclosed): Former Pet Shop member, now NEST

Backstory (optional, but recommended— doesn’t have to be long): Eh I'll do it some other time when I have it but for now it shall be a mystery. Just know something happened involving frog legs. Them damn frog legs are the reason why he just doesn't enjoy biology.

Other: While he sleeps Eli often sleeps curled up into some adorable and equally grotesque spiral.

Here it is!

Name: Aja Ainsley
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Insect(s): Warrior Wasp X Asian Giant Hornet
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: Aja is mostly calm and collected, but can go into random temper tantrums, when she's angry. To the victims of these tantrums, it ends up in excessive stinging. Aja is very protective of little bees and hornets, that follow her around. They supply her with one of her favorite foods. Honey! They also help her with fights. Aja can take a lot of beatings and doesn't mind getting into fights.
Appearance:
download20221002174855.png
Ajas' lower body is the body of an Asian Giant Hornet including the stinger, with the bite of a Warrior Wasp. She also has 3 sets of wings. She stands at 5' 3".

Poisoned Teeth and Stinger: Ajas' teeth & stinger secretes a painful venom, described by her father. "Torture, you are chained to the flow of an active volcano"

High Stamina/Lots of Flight Time: One of Ajas' favorite pastimes is flying. The longest she has flied is for 5 hours.

Attack Pheromone: When Aja is in a fight, she usually releases a pheromone, that attracts hornets, bees and wasps to the area, that do her bidding.

Digging: Aja can dig deep tunnels into the ground. She was taught by her father. (Asian Giant Hornet)



Might add more stuff later (studying insect biology so this part was fun)
Affiliation: None
Backstory: Her mom likes frog legs a lot.
Other: When you combine two painful things, and even more painful thing happens.

@Prof.Ninja To answer your question, technology in HIVE is pretty much modern, although it’s used a lot less due to the uses of insect powers. There are still music devices, mobile smartphones, computers, etc but a lot of the heavier machinery (unless for factory use) has been mostly replaced by people with beetle or ant complexes who can lift hundreds of times their body weight. It’d be a few years behind the outside world’s technology, but essentially modern-day.

Apologies for the double post ^^”
