Well, here goes nothing I guess.
[INTRO]
The outset of the 21st century...Earth is a planet teeming with life. Mankind, 7 billion strong, continued to prosper. However...this prosperity had a price. To a species unable to halt the environments destruction. Even so...mankind, desperate for salvation, clung to hope. A brave few began their mission, to the enigmatic land of ruin. Little realizing this harsh journey would decide man's fate.
[OPENING]
A group of people are assembled in a giant conference room. They are talking amongst themselves while staring at a large monitor. "Everything you hear in this session of the Schwarzwelt Joint Project should remain, as always, secret. The civilian populace is still unaware. Our information control program is going smoothly, in fact the news should be broadcasting exactly what we want in just a moment.", said the chief director of the Schwarzwelt Project, turning on the the news and projecting it onto the large monitor. A newscaster with footage beside her was shown,
"A new weapon seems to have been used in the increasingly prolonged Eastern European hostilities." The news reporter continued on with there scheduled report.
"Sir, we've just received new data from the drone we've sent inside the Schwarzwelt." the co-commander said as he broadcasted the images onto the larger screen, turning off the news broadcast. "This...this is what it looks like inside that thing?" The chief director said as he stared at the large monitor in shock. The monitor showed a large fiery battlefield, "But that's ridiculous! How could there be a battlefield THERE?!".
The next image showed a large shopping district with bright lights and sales signs, "But look, this can't possible be an accurate depiction of the interior." said the co-commander, baffled by the images that were presented. "This is a shopping mall, for God's sake! Someone must have gotten the signal crossed."
A scientist intervened, "They're predicting unchecked growth until it swallows the entire world. There'd be a panic if that information got out. And if they knew it was growing...I shudder to think."
"Do you think it's okay to send them in there chief?"
"We have no other way but to send humans in to investigate...Our only choice is for them to go into the Schwarzwelt."

Cool.
I noticed a few grammatical errors tho, you could fix those.
Other than that, the plot is pretty vague so you could expand upon that.

So what is the mission? To destroy oil tankers to save the world? Colonize space? Bring back magic from another dimension that will magically make carbon emissions safe?
Even if the characters don't know it it's important for the roleplayers to know it so that we know if this is something that interests us.

I'll see if I can make an edit later in the day, but I appreciate both of your feedbacks.

Actually now that I think about it, I already have the opening for the roleplayer, so I'll just post that when I can.

Here's that intro I promised that will hopefully explain the RP better. Long read
Four large ships ride deep into the center of Antarctica. As members of the Schwarzwelt investigational team, it is your duty to explore the inner depths of the seemingly large black hole and stop it from enveloping the Earth. You are around other crew members with different ethnicities and patches resembling what ship, all wondering the same thing: what does this mission have in store for us? Suddenly your commanding officer steps into the command room where you all are located, “Alright crew! Your attention, please.” Said Commander Gore, a tall african-american man who had a firm stature and a deep voice. Everyone looked in his direction and kept silent for the mission briefing.
“We will arrive at our destination, the Schwarzwelt, in thirty minutes. Our mission as the Schwarzwelt investigational team is about to get underway. I realize you were selected on short notice and came from all over the globe to be part of this mission, but it’s only going to be harder from here on out, so get used to it” Commander Gore said as he walked in front of the crew members, studying them each individually. “Fortunately, you’re all the elite of your respective nations’ service. You can handle this. If we all lend each other our support and work together as a team, this mission will go smoothly” Commander Gore said, walking to the large monitor that was placed in front of the crew members, “But enough pep talk. It’s time for our last formal briefing before entry”.
The air is filled with suspension and mystery as a woman from the crowd of team member walks towards Commander Gore and stands beside him. Who was she?
“First, to tell us about the land we’re about to enter, the Schwarzwelt...I’d like to introduce you all First Lieutenant Zelenin”, said Commander Gore as Zelenin waved to the crew members with a reassuring smile. Zelenin had short blonde hair that was up to shoulder length. She had sky blue eyes and a smile that could make any person feel better. She also hails from Russia, as is noticed in her accent. “Hello, everyone! If I may have your attention please” Zelenin said as she stood in front of the crew members. “I am First Lieutenant Zelenin. For those of you I haven’t met already, the pleasure is mine. I will now explain what observed data we have on the Schwarzwelt inner structure” Zelenin said as she turned on the large monitor to an image of Antartica (http://puu.sh/t2k3X/ee44935712.jpg). “The Schwarzwelt is a natural phenomenon that arose in the South Pole some months ago. But this phenomenon is one of a kind, we have nothing of its like to compare it to”.
(http://puu.sh/t2k7K/0b07b56592.jpg) “You may have heard false reports that it is a giant blizzard, but in truth...it is an unknown spatial anomaly that destroys and absorbs its surroundings as it enlarges. When it first appeared, it was a cylinder only one meter in diameter that stretched to the sky. Since then, it has spread radially. Swallowing surrounding observation bases and any investigators whole. Today, it occupies a sizeable footprint with a radius of several hundred kilometers. As we speak, the Schwarzwelt continues to expand…” said Zelenin with a very concerned expression on her face, “If we cannot engineer a reversal of the process, then it will inevitably swallow the Earth”. Nobody knew what to think after that statement. If this crew were to fail the mission, the Earth is doomed. The pressure was real, and you could tell as some crew members were already shaking with fear.
(http://puu.sh/t2kko/a6fc8265d8.jpg) “According to the data retrieved from the unmanned probes dispatched prior to this investigational...there is a several thousand meter wall surrounding the Schwarzwelt’s outer rim. This is a barrier that dismantles all approaching objects at a molecular level. (http://puu.sh/t2kw7/be99b34d23.jpg) You may be surprised to learn that the interior contains parallel universes, or other dimensions. Unfolding within the anomaly is a bizarre landscape we’ve had a hard time getting readings on. This is due to some sort of property the interior has that repels foreign bodies...whatever this property is, it’s destroyed each and every unmanned probe we sent in” said Zelenin. From what she said, some people started to think other life-forms lived inside the Schwarzwelt, and nobody has a clue what kind of lifeforms they’re up against. Suddenly, the monitor shuts off.
“And that’s what we know in a nutshell. It paints a bleak picture for our mission, no matter how one interprets it...but as many of you know, we have effective ways of dealing with each of those obstacles. The Join Project assembled its team and equipment based on the data we’ve collected so far. I am certain that if we all work as one, we can carry out our duties safely and efficiently.” said Zelenin as she smiled towards the crew and concluded her report.
“Thank you for that clear and concise explanation, Lieutenant Zelenin.” Commander Gore said as he shook her hand, “Now, Arthur will confirm our mission. He’ll be the one managing the assignments and duty roster” Commander Gore said as he turned on a separate monitor and activated a small robot that was attached to a dashboard near the monitor. “Hello, Schwarzwelt Investigational Team. I am the Command Unit Arthur. I will support you by coordinating our systems with those of the other ships to devise a strategy” said Arthur. “As you can see, Arthur is an administrative program with a pseudo personality. It may feel strange to take orders from him at first, but you’ll quickly get used to it” Commander Gore said as he stood beside Arthur.
“This team’s mission is to conduct a detailed investigation of the Schwarzwelt’s inner structure. The Schwarzwelt Joint Project is currently reviewing plans to destroy the anomaly. However, due to a lack of data, no sound plan for its definitive elimination has been submitted” said Arthur. “If your investigational sheds new light on the Schwarzwelt, the Joint Project should have little difficulty devising and executing a plan to destroy it. To investigate the Schwarzwelt’s interior may seem an impossible feat at first. But: with the amphibious assault ship we are all currently aboard, our mission becomes feasible” said Arthur, displaying an image on the monitor that was beside him,
(http://puu.sh/t2ld4/8162c6b400.jpg) “This next-generation amphibious assault ship uses a plasma engine to penetrate the protectice wall, it can also go airborne for brief intervals. (http://puu.sh/t2liN/b0116681a9.jpg) Thus, we can fly over the plasma cloud to safely begin investigating the interior” said Arthur, shutting off the monitor. “The investigation team is composed of four next-generation amphibious assault ships. Our ship, which is in command of the overall mission, is Ship 1, the Red Sprite. Ship 3, the Elve, houses many scientists who will be pivotal in our research. Ships 2 and 4, the Blue Jet and Gigantic, will server as combat support should emergencies arise. It will also house those who are specialized in the medical field.”
“As mentioned in Lieutenant Zelenin and Arthur’s reports, we carry with us some very serious gear” said Commander Gore, “With all the ships working in tandem, investigating that place is far from impossible. Our mission may be to challenge the unknown...but we can make of it a unique experience of saving mankind, and go home proud of what we’ve done!” Commander Gore said as the crew members shouted in unison “Yes sir!”.
“We will arrive to our destination in the next fifteen minutes. I would like all of you to spend the next five minutes familiarizing yourselves with one another. After that, we’ll each break off to our respective ships. You’ll notice on your shoulder you have a colored patch, that’s what ship you’re on. Red means you’re aboard the Red Sprite, Blue means you're aboard the Blue Jet. Yellow means you’re aboard the Elve, Grey means you're aboard the Gigantic. With that said, I will be back with you shortly” Commander Gore said as he stepped away from the crew.
