Warriors that could train the mind, the heart, the body, and the soul, are capable of superhuman feats. Strength beyond what the body would allow, speed beyond all speed, and weaponizing your fighting spirit in raw form... all of these feats are owed to ki. Many are capable of using ki, but few are able to utilize it to it's fullest potential. Especially martial artists. These few are known to the world as[/i] Nomads [i] as they travel the world for their own reasons - whether it be personal betterment, or helping the world - and challenge other fighters. Only the strongest and most skilled fighters are able to come out on top of these clashes."[/i][/center] [hr] Alright, vague opening spiel aside, welcome to [color=fff200][i][b]World Warriors: The Nomadic Fist[/b][/i][/color]. An RP that I've been meaning to do for [i]ages[/i] now and I'm just about tired of just throwing around ideas in my head, and want to put it in motion. Basically, World Warriors is the result of my love of the fighting game genre, martial art movies, and anime. This RP will basically be a fighting game themed RP where martial artists are endowed with supernatural abilities either from their training, or their natural talent, and they go on a world spanning journey. Engaging in supernatural battles with other combatants powered by ki which has been described above. If you are interested, give me a shout. There's a few things about the lore and setting I want to plan out with everyone to help me form a better idea of the world you all want to roleplay in. I'll discuss them when I get some people. Below is a FAQ (Lots of people asked these questions, shut up) I've assembled to explain the setting/lore in more in-depth. [hider=Frequently Asked Questions] ■ What is the setting generally going to be like? [indent]❱ It's going to be set in the modern-era a la Street Fighter/King of Fighters. There's going to be cell-phones and the usual technological advancements. But, it'll be a kitchen sink of sorts. There's going to be fantasy themes (Things such as Dragons, Vampires, Angels/Demons, etc exist), as well as Scifi (There's robots, space ships, and even aliens out there). It's mostly an incoherent kitchen sink that'll allow all kinds of characters to be made.[/indent] ■ What kind of characters do you want? [indent]❱ Now, I am allowing all sorts of things with this setting... Which means I expect everyone to utilize it. Everyone can make a group of bland fighting badasses that we will all forget about... [i]Or,[/i] you can make a group of colorful characters. Boxing pimps? Yes. Kung-Fu Werewolves? Sure. Go for more interesting and creative ideas, the more creative the better. But, don't make things too wacky. This roleplay will have it's serious moments.[/indent] ■ How does Ki work character-wise? [indent]❱ Basically, it's an invisible force that is within all life representing their fighting spirit. The more ki something has, the more powerful it is. Ki can be enhanced through vigorous training, [i]or[/i] something can naturally have a lot of ki. The more ki something has, the stronger, the more durable, the more endure, a singular being is. Someone will high-ki can tank bullets like it's nothing, and punch holes in walls. But, it can also be manipulated and manifested in physical form. Depending on the fighting style, characters can shoot fireballs, lightning, use telekinesis, manipulate the elements, etc. Ki can be enhanced through martial-arts training, and the same training can allow someone to manipulate their ki in the aforementioned ki. Also, magical creatures such as werewolves naturally have a lot of ki.[/indent] ■ What is the tone of this Roleplay? [indent]❱ I'd say it's a bit lighthearted - there's going to be fun and cool characters - but there will be moments where everything will get serious. Like One Punch Man in tone.[/indent] ■ How important will fighting be? [indent]❱ Now, this is a tough one. I [i]don't[/i] want this to be an arena Roleplay. While there will be plenty of fights, I also want to weave an interesting story. So, if you got excited about making an edgelord and defeating everyone, you will be solely disappointed. Also, since this is a story, try not to treat it like a competition.[/indent] ■ How strong can my character be? [indent]❱ Let's try not to make an invincible character here. Try to make a character strong enough so they don't get thrashed by mooks, but weak enough that they could get beaten by a stronger villain. That nice, drama-preserving, middle-ground.[/indent] ■ Can I make evil characters/villains? [indent]❱ Sure, it wouldn't make sense if everyone is a good guy.[/indent] ■ How many characters can I have? [indent]❱ As many characters as you want. I want a large cast, or roaster, of characters.[/indent] ■ Can my character use weapons? [indent]❱ Yes.[/indent] ■ Faceclaims? [indent]❱ You can use art, 3D renders, etc. I would prefer if you kept it to realistic looking art... but, also don't use the cringiest anime desu desu waifu art you can find. Please God no. I want art along the lines of [url=http://pre02.deviantart.net/c4c8/th/pre/i/2012/116/3/4/boy_by_sakimichan-d4xlmhi.jpg]this[/url] , [url=http://pre07.deviantart.net/4859/th/pre/f/2015/266/d/b/superribka_by_ribkadory-d9anyeo.jpg]this[/url], and [url=http://orig02.deviantart.net/2ca6/f/2011/003/2/9/cfas_fighter___faye_elise_alt_by_bayanghitam-d36bv1t.jpg]this[/url] (You should probably just get the art off deviantart).[/indent] [/hider]
