After nearly 5 years of experimentation in the lab orbiting Valix IV, the final prototype had finally been completed. Thought impossible by almost everyone, it had taken thousands of years to be realized.
Fenway eyed the statis tanks for the previous experiments. They were all well and good, but it wasn't right. The shrinking process had damaged them, slightly. But it was no matter.
With his lab assistants behind him, he prepared the initial firing tests on an apple. He watched as the power cycled. 10%... 30%... 60%... 100%. A green beam shot out from the prototype's muzzle, and impacted the apple with a slight crackle. The apple pulsed, several times, before finally crushing into a tiny point. The beam shut off. Fenway brought the apple under a microscope.
It had been preserved perfectly. The experiment was a success. Fenway and the lab assistants began cheering. After a few minutes, they began checking over data processes to make sure everything was as expected.
It was at this point that the machine started crackling. Fenway looked up, just as power arcs began circling the mechanism. It began filling the room with green sparks, until the room began flashing. Fenway spied several objects being crushed, just as he was himself. He lost consciousness.
When he came to, he noticed he was on the floor. The lab table towered above him. and the pieces from the prototype littered the floor. A critical malfunction. He got up, noticing he was a mere 1 cm tall, and spied the other lab assistants, also shrunk, nearby.
They were the only ones on the small station. This was not good.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In Shrunk, everyone aboard the small research station has, along with many other items, been shrunk to mere centimeters in height. The prototype has been destroyed. And there is nobody else on the station, save the rather large security and maintenance robotic systems. They probably won't take too kindly to tiny people running around...
Application:
Name:
Species:
New Height: (Remember, around 1 cm based on creature)
Abilities:
Flaws:
Role aboard station:
Everyone starts in the main research chamber, on the floor.
Our goals? To survive, and somehow return ourselves to normal size.

Name: Subject Zero (Zero)
Species: Skytherian
New height: 1cm
Abilities: slightly able to read thoughts of machines
Flaws: used to be very dependant on psychic abilities, the sudden removal of them will be a big problem. And to avoid the whole complication with the overlap of type 1 and 2 psychic fields that would be caused by Zero and a certain other character, Zero no longer produces a type 1 psychic field.
Role aboard station: Researcher

Name: El'uriaq Nightblade
Species: Valyrian
New height: 1.3 cm
Abilities: Can wirelessly operate consoles using his wrist mounted linker. Can withstand extreme temperatures, up to 300c
Flaws: Without a daily dose of plasma radiation, Valyrians become psychotic and paranoid during brief spells of withdrawal, eventually this is lethal, but only in the very long term. Inbreeding has also lead to El'uriaq being a haemophiliac (bleeds profusly from even the smallest cut)

Re: Shrunk
Zero is accepted, remember that the psychic abilities are greatly nullified and Phi is greatly corrupted, but not totally destroyed.
Luna is accepted under one condition- The magic abilities no longer work. Why? They rely on the psychic field, and the shrinking caused flaws in Luna's cortex (Nothing major), that broke the delicate balance the abilities rely on.
William is accepted, though the AI is corrupted due to the fact it runs on a quantum computer, and therefore, it's circuitry was compressed to an unsafe level.
El'uriaq is accepted, though the remote linker may be corrupted due to the compressed nature of its circuitry.
Cyyv is accepted.

Application:
Name: McGruber
Species: Poopian
New Height: .9 cm
Abilities: As an organism composed entirely of fecal matter, McGruber can squeeze himself into narrow cracks and crannies. Oh, and his smell might catch people offguard.
Flaws: Reproduces assexually, revolting smell causes many to steer clear of him, and his limbs easily crumble. Requires a weekly supply of urine to not dry up and lose sentience.
Role aboard station: Test subject. Poopians are a recently discovered race and scientists are curious as to how they work.

Re: Shrunk
Really, your taking away most of my ability, all I can do is fly, at least ACH can breath fire. I'm not allowed teleportation, or basic combat spells? It's not like magic has infinite power, in fact magic takes up a lot more energy than physical strength.

And if you don't change your mind can you at least accept basic object levitation and manipulation? I mean really, its just an extended arm reach, magic is like physical strength, it has a weight limit (which is severely reduced to to downsizing). And if you don't accept even that

Tiel you need to be more serious (IF ANYPONY SAYS "why so serious" I WILL GO TO YOUR HOUSE AND PERSONALLY BURN IT DOWN) a sentient well poop seems to have been the straw that broke the camels back. But what you did, I think he says your criticizing his RP ideas and such, and you making a joke of it has pushed him over the edge.
