Kindergarten, a vast canyon filled with numerous holes carved on the faces of rocks; these are referred to as the "birthplaces" of many Gems. All over the Earth are places such as these, mostly unfinished and forgotten while others are still very much standing as if a constant reminder of what lead to the events of the Gem War and the mistakes that were made by HomeWorld Gems. Not all of the gems made in these places were mistakes but most of them were corrupted, unable to take normal form and forced into monstrous form with only base thought as far as anyone could tell. If the corrupted gems weren't bad enough, the process to create these gems took the nutrients from the Earth, killing the planet slowly and leading to one outcome if not stopped. Rose Quartz, the one that saw beauty in everything was enthralled with Earth and wished to protect it from being misused. She banded together with her friends and allies to start a rebellion. They fought hard to protect this world from the HomeWorld Gems. The War was intense and many gems were destroyed from both sides. In the end, Rose Quarts and her closest friends were the only ones left of the rebellion that was known as the Crystal Gems. The only ones left on Earth are now outcasts of their true home. The Earth was now their home and they felt responsible to clean up the mess that HomeWorld had left behind and continue their mission. Little would Rose and the others know that not all the gems from the Kindergarten had awoken for the Gem War. They still sat, forming or even just staying in their gems and refusing to project a body. Others hid or stayed in there holes, making a choice not to be a part in the War. It wouldn't be long before they popped into existence or were tempted to form with a bustling metropolis now built on the remains of their birthplace and HomeWorld gems poking around in the Kindergarten once more.

There is a reason this one is on top! If you have a problem with anything at any time in this RP than please feel encouraged to talk with my Co-GM or myself. Speak up, I am not a mind reader but I do want everyone to enjoy themselves as much as I can. [*] The first also leads into this one, if you are going to be gone for a [i]few[/i] days than please notify again the Co-GM or myself. That way we can work in you being gone so everything doesn't come to a stand still. I do not expect everyone to be posting 24/7, after all this is supposed to be fun and entertaining, not pressuring. However, there's no fun with characters being away the whole time without notification if they're still interested in participating in this RP at all. [*] If you have an idea, please share it! Speak your mind!I want everyone to be a part of this RP. The growing and the movement of it all. [*] If you have read all my rules than put hail the king at the bottom of your profile [*] You must post at least two paragraphs minimum (5-7 sentences per paragraph). More is always good. [*] You can play a maximum of two characters unless permission has been granted by myself or Co-GM [*] The king is a lie so write bow to the queen instead. Making sure not too many people skimmed. Be sure to read the rule under this one cause it is important and I will know straight away if you didn't read it. [*] After an initial post, you most wait for two other people to post before you may post again. Sometimes conversations may force a post to have to be sooner but maybe not. [*] Have fun and welcome to my magical RP!

So attacks will most likely be dodged unless you can surprise the gem.
