Pictures by NarayanKEver wonder that colors and shapes are more than to its physical meaning? Everything you think about them is wrong, the deeper part symbolizes more to them than just looks and as the saying says; "You can't judge the book by its cover."

It is the same as how you view the world. You know only a slice of it but out there is the bigger picture. Now colors itself, is a wider picture and let me tell you where it begins

-Ria Tsurara

A brief introduction
Welcome to Shimizu Mega Pyramid City and E.N.M.A Institute, Where total peace is truth. It is the first MegaCorp of its kind in the world to produce a city filled with gifted beings known as Espers and to some extent Mages. Since then every MegaCorp in the world has its own school that develops students into a crime fighting asset. From here, Adam Pride and his associates will help you learn how to better control your gifts and know more about the mysteries of beyond this world.

Timeline

II Great Pacific War 2018-2027
Caused by China. Allies with China are South and North Korea, Russia. Their enemies were Singapore, France, Philippines, Japan and Germany. Other countries joined the fray.

2018. II Great Pacific War. A war struck internally in the United Nations due to China's selfish interests of land hogging. Many people lost their homes and loved ones. The war lasted until 2027 of March. The most gruesome tortures were the Death March of Blood where war prisoners are lead to the walls of North Korea and shot dead on the inside. Followed by the Fall of the Great Wall of China where even the innocents were killed as a reminiscent to WWII's Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombing.

At the last minute of the war, South Korea betrayed the Pacific Power Alliance and joined the Nakama Power Alliance.

World Restoration
2028- 2030
It took three years for the world to recover. China is reinstated in the United Nations but further provision are to be conducted on a daily basis. In order to atone for their sins, China is to offer their firstborn children into different countries and serve for the military. Adam Pride distributed 9 powerful beings known as Level 10 Espers in 9 countries.

Rules


    Disobey them and ban you.
  • It should be noted that this RP will have mature themes. Fade to black will be applicable to sexual situations, but don't expect situations including drugs, gore, or some taboo subjects to garner the same treatment. This is not to say that any of the above will be done in excess, just that they may be done.
  • Combat will be handled on a case-by-case basis, with the GMs proctoring in case issues or disagreements arise. Should you want to script your fight, let the GMs, and your partner(s) know. Make sure all parties are in agreement. A 'scripted fight,' is one wherein the victor is decided before hand.
  • If a problem arises for a player in regards to the GM and they feel uncomfortable bringing it up. Go to the other GM for advice. Don't worry, we're perfectly reasonable people and nine times out of ten we'll work through it with you.
  • The GMs have final say on all matters--this does not mean that I cannot be swayed or convinced. Still, if something must be resolved, we will resolve it and that'll be the end of the discussion.
  • Should you lack inspiration or enough material to post, tell someone. Communicate. Talk to your GMs. Worst case scenario, we'll just move your character aside till you can post again.
  • While you may expand on or modify the base format of the character sheet, make sure all necessary sections are included.
  • No OOC drama. Keep it to PMs, and hopefully keep it non-existent. If needed contact a GM for problem resolution.
  • Posts of a paragraph or more; quality over quantity. If you're drawing a blank, don't worry so much.
  • Posting expectations of once, at the very least, every two weeks barring extenuating circumstances.
  • Only accepted characters go in the character tab.
  • Post your Character Sheet in the OOC for review.
  • Standard Guild rules apply.
  • IC swearing will occur.
What to Expect

  • Interactions with at least semi-realistic cause and effect. If you kill someone, expect there to be an investigation or at least it be on the news.
  • Medium scale in terms of character power, unless you've got good reasons/you prove you can be trusted with more.
  • Posts of a paragraph or more; quality over quantity. If you're drawing a blank, don't worry so much.
  • Posting expectations of once, at the very least, every two weeks barring extenuating circumstances.
  • A GM who is willing to work with you, hear you out, but not break his back to suit your every need.
  • Good communication be it player to player, GM to GM, or GM to player.
  • Some measure of political intrigue.
  • Multiple plotlines if possible.
  • Group world building!
  • Collaboration posts.
  • Some Taboo Subjects.
  • Some slice of life.
  • Some dark themes.
  • Some combat.

I've been a bit busy recently, thinking on some things, so I haven't had much focus on RP stuff. Was hoping to get it down today, but that didn't end up happening. Should get a character up soonish(a day or two) if all goes well.

I was kinda hoping to see a character or two first before making my own. Just for the sake of clarity.

What? You're putting that on me?

Fine, let's see...

To start with, let's define Espers.

Espers are people who use Prana to alter reality. In most cases, Prana can only be used to alter the Esper in some way, increasing their strength, modifying parts of their body, things like that. Your power level would depend on the amount of Prana that can build up in your body and how much you can focus that energy to your will. A level 10 is a person who's Prana concentration and Control have reached levels high enough that they're no longer limited to affecting their own body, and can use Prana to change the environment around them. This is called Escana (ESper arCANA).

A few things separate Escana from Magic. Escana will still use the Esper as it's focal point, anything it does starts at the Esper. It's energy source is still the Esper's Prana. Escana follows scientific laws, rather than magical ones.

Normal Espers (usually level 6 and up) can have abilities that look like Escana, such as manipulating fire or electricity. These are actually still just Esper abilities, since the reaction starts in your body and spreads outward. They typically can't effect anything outside a short distance, generally a foot from their body.

Extremely barebones CS but it's functional as it is, I'll update it more as people start uploading their CSs. (btw gud shit @chukklehed)

I figured a returning veteran should stay a returning veteran, since Bang Constantine's entire point was being that one guy who's an "internally obnoxious, externally simple" character.

THanks Chuku.

@Feisty-Pants Was expecting you too xD
THings are progressing nice and slow and I was in school for the past months.

@Grey I summon thee.

So guys. I am saying this now. There are 12 Level 10 Espers.

Japan has three.
USA has two.
Russia has one.
Germany has one
Singapore has one
South and North Korea has two.

The rest would be GM Staff information. Slots are open for Level 10. Any Level 10 creation would have to go through chuk and me.
I still have a lot to discuss with the GM Staff. But this information is for those who are deciding to jump the gun and make a Level 10.

Remember. I am not requiring anyone to make all student characters. WE NEED VARIETY.

Here are the slots:3 Teachers.
The rest are students.

@chukklehed SInce we are going to have limited amount of members. I want to know watcha think about the ratio we might be having aka slots.

I am limiting 2 characters for now per player. 2nd character creations will not happen if a month hasn't passed. SO in short, one character per player.

Rules can change and I'm open for discussion. We're all open for discussion.

Let's keep this raining!

@Masaki Haruna So I've read through the CS (As well as the ones that have been put up by other players) and I believe most of the things that didn't make sense to me are starting to become a bit clearer. I do have a few questions though:

  • What is the different between an Esper and a Mage? My assumption is that Espers are more based around a superhuman ability like telekinesis whilst mages are more about... well magic. Spells, Curses, Dark Arts, Witchcraft etc. Though it seems like some of the abilities shown seem to blur the lines between them, leaving me a bit confused.

  • Could I get a little more information on the setting of the Roleplay? As I understand it, we are living in a pyramid city that is also kind of like a prison? I may have misread that bit in the PM. Is there any additional info you can give us about the city? It will help me personally when writing my biography.
