It's the distant future. Humans have traversed the nearby planets. On Jupiter, we found a unstable element called skilltonium. It's atomic structure changed to fit with any other element put in the nearby area, so it is highly valued. When we surfaced the first batch of skilltonium, it bonded with the dirt and iron, creating fiends, who were deformed and presummed brainless. But then it caught sight of the skilltonium, and consumed the first miners and the first batch. From then on, we've been in a war with these creatures, utilizing the skilltonium to bolster our own abilities.
The tech.
When earth's natural resources started to dwindle, we found a way to convert earth to data. We did so, and now earth contains portals in and out of this data world. Only things not created by the data can travel through these portals, because anything made of data dissipates into the portal itself, destroying it. Because everything on earth is data, anything is possible on it. As such, it became a "Hub world" of sorts, for humans to come back to, to relax, sell treasures found on other planets, and to socialize.
The planets.
Mercury - fiends traveled to this planet, overtaking the human population and enhancing their fire related abilities.
Venus - tamed by humans, but inhabited by fiends here and there, this world has become a new earth of sorts. Most human here dislike the data world of earth.
Mars - dubbed, "the discovery planet," tests of all sorts are done here by scientists, because it offers a wide variety of habitats. Fiends here have been tamed, and occasionally work with the scientists.
Jupiter - Battles rage day and night here. Fiends and miners do war continuously for the precious skilltonium. Only for the brave of heart or dumb of mind.
Saturn - only inhabited by fiends, due to the fact that the rings somehow block out portals. No one knows what happens here or beyond this point.
The skilltonium.
Skilltonium had an interesting effect on humans. It bonds with them, and changes their abilities, their skills, based on the personality of the bonded human. Small doses slightly enhance anything, but large doses tend to cause insanity, giantism, and rage. These behemoth humans are forced to leave earth. If they retain any brain function, they tend to become rulers of fiend clans.

You wake up. It's a misty morning. It always is, that's the way this town likes it. You decide to get up and dawn your armor, the same way you always do, just in case. You go outside and check the mail. Nothing new, as per usual. Digital posters are strewn about, talking about the latest on Mars, how cool it is on Venus, and the recruitment going on now on Jupiter. As always, the portal nearby is active, but surrounded by punks. Where do you go? What do you do?
OOC I thought you were talking about the past. You got me confused with the different tenses in there. BTW, I'm going to tag you in posts concerning you, if you don't want this, just say so @Loop_Stratos

You make sure you have everything before you lock the door and head into the city. You're not particularly exited, because Athien is full of upper class snobs. You get there and see a training portal, to weed through canidates. Many middle aged men are lining up, of all different sizes, builds, and statures. When you arrive at the desk after a short wait, you're asked,"Class, skill level, and name please. These are required for me to send you through the training portal."

"Long-Ranged Fire Support, [Insert whatever skill level is here], "Glitch"." I say straightforwardly.

IC: "Thank you, your evaluation test will be ready in a moment. Please wait."
He types for a short bit, before the portal on your right opens. "Head in. You'll have a minute to examine the area and find a location before the test begins, ghost. Please remember that this is just a test. You will not die, and you will be evaluated." You enter the portal, and you are teleported to the top of a lush mountain. You see a road, and a couple bots made to look like fiends. They look like they're escorting a chieften, assumed to be your target. Around you is not much cover, but a little bit down the mountain is a patch of bush and tree. Further still is an overgrown bush, but you could easily be seen from the right. What do you do?
