Why is there so little activity in futuristic??
In the year 2077, passengers fly to other worlds in spaceships. Even though they can travel at the speed of light, the trip takes so long they use sleeping pods to freeze their bodies and consciousness for as long as the trip takes, sometimes even hundreds of years. The ships pilot themselves using AIs, so crashes are almost nonexistent. Unless you're shot down by anti-space travel Earth dwellers called Earthlings.
Today, your character wakes up after 252 years hibernating in a sleeping pod, with no memory of why they were on the spaceship, why they were going to Earth of all places, or how to survive in Earth's wild environment. Your character must defend themself from Earthlings, survive in the new, harsh environment, and learn how to control their new…gifts. Whether good or bad.
Play as any species you want, look how you want, and you can have up to 3 characters if you think you can handle that many. The characters wrecked in a mysterious 'radiation' zone, what kind of radiation no one is sure. The only thing they know is that they are changing and that they are stuck on Earth.
Rules:
Grammar: Do what you want.
Sexuality: Don't make them all the same sexuality, it gets kind of old.
Powers: DO NOT make your character crazy powerful. The changes are both good and bad, make sure the amounts are equal or have drawbacks to a power.
Be nice.
Please post at least once a day!

Any species. Fantasy, alien, or completely made-up. It's in the future and they've discovered hundreds of other inhabited planets, so pretty much every species exists now.

@Bandito

Blake didn't even remember waking up, she spent the first five minutes of her consciousness coughing. Stupid breathing liquid. She squinted, suddenly realizing it was the middle of the day and she was looking at the sun. A second later, she was looking at smoke. She struggled to lift herself up as she twisted to look behind her. A huge wreck. Her ship?

@Shadow_Knight group

Zanha groaned. She felt a heavy weight on one of her arms. it was crushing. She opened her eyes. The sun was so bright. Why was it so bright? She tried to move her arm and let out a cry of pain. It was stuck! She wasn't going to be able to lift it. Where was she? Should she try to yell for help? Was this planet even inhabited? What if the inhabitants try to hurt her?
(Are we just going to say they speak the same language or what?)

@EternallyEris

Ajax coughed out the last of the breathing liquid with a disgusting spat on the ground. He hated light speed travel. He wheezed as he straightened against the wall, blinking to clear his cloudy vision. "What in the hell…?" Was that sunlight? Yellow sunlight? Where the hell was he? His home world had three blue suns so the light was softer, this harsh light made his eyes hurt. He stumbled walking like a drunkard through the ship. "Ugh." He groaned.
