(This roleplay takes place on Krypton please only join if you have some knowledge of the TV show Smallville or have watched the superman movies.)
History: Krypton was a planet of giant size located somewhere in the outer reaches of trackless space. Described as an unusual planet with a unique atmosphere and a tremendous gravitational pull far greater than that of Earth, Krypton had a massive uranium core and was occasionally swept by windstorms so violent that the planet's tallest skyscrapers had to be lowered into the ground to prevent their being toppled by the powerful gales.
Although a number of texts seem to place Krypton in the same solar system as that of Earth - somewhere past Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn - the vast preponderance of textual evidence places the planet of Superman's birth in a distant solar system, revolving about a red sun - as distinguished from Earth's yellow sun - at the rate of approximately one revolution per 1.39 Earth years.
Born almost six billion time-cycles ago - six billion time cycles being the equivalent of approximately 8.3 billion Earth years if one assumes that the terms "sun-cycle" and "time-cycle" are synonymous - the planet Krypton occupied the same solar system as the planet Thoron and was orbited, at various times in its history, by two, three, and perhaps even four natural satellites. When, in November 1960, Superman makes a time-journey to Krypton in the period immediately preceeding its destruction, he romances lovely Lyla Lerrol under the soft radiance of Krypton's two moons; but it is firmly established in the chronicles that the renegade Kryptonian scientist Jax-Ur destroyed one of Krypton's moons prior to this period, a heinous crime for which Jax-Ur was banished into the Phantom Zone, clear evidence that Krypton had three moons - one of which was evidently named Koron - in the not-too-distant past. In addition, Xenon, the so-called twin world of Krypton, was evidently Krypton's fourth moon, sometime in the ancient past, until it spun out of its orbit and left Krypton forever.
Although the planet Krypton was much like Earth in a multitude of ways - it is even called Earth's sister world in Superman #53 (1948) - Krypton's atmosphere and solar radiation were substantially different from Earth's and the weight of its gravity was incredibly stronger. The distance from Earth to Krypton has never been established with absolute certainty, but scientist Mel Evans has estimated the probable distance at 0.317 light years.
Krypton was a planet of staggering richness and incomporable natural beauty. Among its many scenic wonders were:
The Fire Falls, a magnificent flaming cataract teeming with mutant fish;
The Gold Volcano, which erupted gold instead of lava;
The Jewel Mountains, whose fascinating beauty entranced all beholders;
Meteor Valley, a scenic valley created by a monstrously gigantic meteor that glanced off the surface of the planet during Krypton's prehistoric past;
Rainbow Canyon, a deep natural gorge traversed by a breathtaking rainbow;
The Scarlet Jungle, a weird wilderness teeming with red and purple flora; and
The Three Sisters of Krypton, a trio of great fire-geysers so named because they always erupted simultaneously.
Other natural wonders of Krypton included Shrinkwater Lake, whose waters contained some strange chemical that could shrink ordinary men down to ant size; Great Krypton Lake, which was ultimately contaminated by the evil Professor Vakox; and the Great Krypton Sea, whose waters were once the home of a highly advanced civilization. Other of Krypton's geographical features are enumerated on the accompanying map.

Storyline: "In the last days of Krypton nothing out of the ordinary was occuring the warriors were protecting the children from harm. As well as hunting harmless things that got in their way. Until a mysterious cloud shrouded over Krypton's Surface. Nobody knew what this cloud could be but took nothing of it perhaps it was a gust. But it did not go away after the few days so the Kryptonians just seemed to forget about it. But the sky leaked moisture that got into the rocks making Kryptonite witch is deadly to the Kryptonians however this was a rare occurance and nobody knew the cause of this because most of the warriors who found this Kryptonite would die before they could harm it. Their was also another sort of kryptonite that made the Kryptonians act ruthlessly. That Kryptonite has caused a band of Kryptonians to join and take over the planet of Krypton think everybody was inferier to them. The sky continued to leak over the past few days more and more kryptonians died from it. The band was known as "The New Kryptonians"

Information:
Name: Dal'Eo
Age: 282
Appereance: He wore a thick coat of silver armor under it lie a thick black cloak that reached down well past his feet and draped to the ground. He also had a pendent with a "U" shape and two lines through it witch ment "Anger"
Powers: X-Ray, Speed, Strength, Hearing, Flying, Heat vision. (Advanced Kryptonian. Keep in mind Age comes with powers do not do a 98 year old kryptonian and they know all these powers.)
Information: He was respected around Krypton and did not like the band of these "New Kryptonians" He also had vast knowledge of the falling water having seen it take its course on another Kryptonian. His mother and father both vanished both being warriors they were expected to come back however they never did.
"He walked into the Gold Volcano his eyes were a bright shade of green. He could feel a strong power coming from the cave however he did not know what it could of been. He then looked into the cave "Anybody their?" His voice was deep almost as if it had hatred behind it. Dal'Eo took a step in and then winced his eyes scanning the cave he was still a younge Kryptonian as most lived to be well over 1,000. He saw nothing as he scanned and then turned to walk away hearing something click behind him."
