Evangelion is one of my favorite animes and I really want to try to get a RP started. If you don't know anything about the show still show an interest. I have some background information below.

Now, in short, Neon Genesis Evangelion is an anime dating from the mid-nineties that is among the most influential in history, changing the face of anime forever. The original was completely incredible. and the Rebuild films are, by some margin, my favourite films ever made (as well as being my favourite anime). Seriously, if you haven't seen Rebuild, watch it! Although you mightn't want to do that just yet, so you can hold off a minute. So, a guide on terminology and general things about the series.

 [hider=The Second Impact] The Second Impact was an event that fundamentally changed the face of the Earth. Occurring in 2000 and centred on Antarctica, the devastation unleashed by this killed three billion of the Earth's ten billion people, and another two billion died in the massive-scale resource wars that followed. The world's oceans became an orange-crimson due to vast amounts of nuclear, chemical and eldritch contaminants released in the blast, its oxygen content lowering significantly, rendering it uninhabitable to life; millions of species were wiped out, the entire continent of Australia becoming a blasted hellscape and Antarctica simply disappearing off the map entirely. The world's oceans rose, rendering most of the world's coastline uninhabitable, and the horrors of the mass starvations and great wars that followed were never forgotten. What nobody, save for the highest echelons of NERV and the enigmatic members of SEELE know, is that it was caused by experiments upon Adam, the First Angel, housed in a classified facility in Antarctica; after the testing of experimental anti-Angel weaponry on Adam, it broke free of its restraints, massacring the research team before losing control of its S2 engine and destroying itself, triggering Second Impact - and, as some claim, the beginning of the end of mankind...[/hider]

[hider=Angels] Mysterious entities, very little is functionally known of the Angels. What is known is that they are veritable gods, projecting AT (originally standing for Absolute Territory, since more appropriately re-adapted by NERV to stand for Absolute Terror) Fields which render them nigh-invulnerable to conventional weaponry; the only reliable way of destroying an Angel is to deploy something with its own AT Field, which cancels out the Angel's field and renders it susceptible to damage. They can take many forms, varying from skyscraper-sized humanoid abominations to giant airborne crystalline prisms to billions of microrganisms lead by a single hive mind; however, all have the ability to deploy an AT field, and all have a single 'heart' that can be destroyed. Doing so destroys the Angel's AT Field, which binds the Angel together, causing the Angel's physical form to completely destroy itself and liquefy into Angel's Blood. Lastly, the most unique component of an Angel is its S2 Engine - powering its AT Field and allowing many of them to change shape, the S2 Engine is an organ outputting what is believed to be infinite power.[/hider]

[hider=Evangelions(EVA's)]Experimental weapons created by mankind for countering the Angels following the Second Impact, the Evangelions are eighty-metre-tall cyborgic humanoid weapons systems. Each costs hundreds of billions of dollars to produce, and each is incredibly powerful, knocking over entire skyscrapers in a single punch and capable of running at speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. They appear mechanical, but are actually living organisms in a suit of powered armour, which simultaneously makes them better-protected and limits their power. They can engage and destroy Angels in hand-to-hand combat, or can use large-scale firearms, typically infantry-style assault rifles and handguns vastly up-sized for use by the eighty-metre-tall Evangelions; they are also universally armed with at least one 'Progressive Knife', the edge of which vibrates at an extreme frequency to enhance cutting power. They are piloted via 'Entry Plugs', long rounded cylinders where the pilot sits breathing LCL, a liquid substance containing enough oxygen to continue the function of the human body while offering enhanced shock resistance and reducing risk of lung collapse during high-G Evangelion manoeuvres. They require constant power sources, limiting their combat effectiveness; their emergency internal batteries are only capable of outputting five minutes of combat-level power before shutting down. One of the most unique - and unfortunate - features of the Evangelions is the restrictions on piloting; due to the effects of the Second Impact, only those born after the Second Impact can pilot them; this is further complicated by the extreme psychic stress that an Evangelion puts on the pilot, which severely exacerbates existing personality problems. Lastly, NERV's greatest secret, the most classified piece of information regarding the Evangelions, is their origin - the organic components of the Evangelions are, in fact, cloned Angels, utilising the roughly humanoid "Adam" as their template and with several mechanical components.[/hider]

[hider=Tokyo-III] Tokyo-III: A massive fortress city, specifically designed to resist Angel attack, Tokyo-III was constructed following the destruction of Tokyo during the Second Impact. Extraordinarily heavily militarised, nearly every building is heavily-armoured, and the entire city's above-ground portion can be retracted underground into the 'Geofront', an immense cavern buried beneath nearly a kilometre of armour plating. Unbeknownst to most of the city's inhabitants, it was actually constructed around the containment facility of Lilith, the captured Second Angel; should any Angel unite with it, it would cause the Third Impact, destroying mankind. [/hider]

There are many worlds, and some run parallel. This is one such world. In this world, Rei, Shinji and Asuka never existed. Instead, there was another group of EVA pilots. Another group who stood between mankind and utter destruction as the world slowly began to burn around them. This is their story.

Now, as you may have gathered, this is an Alternate History of Neon Genesis Evangelion; one way of putting it would be that it's our own version of the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. That is, so to speak, the same basic events, but the changes in character lead to different outcomes, and ultimately, a divergent plotline. However, the key difference here is that we've completely changed the characters. In short, Shinji, Rei, Asuka, Gendo, Misato and every other character in the series never existed - they may have parallels, but that's it. However, there are other changes, and some things have stayed the same. A short list:

Differences:

-As mentioned above, ALL of the characters are different. Some will have parallels (for instance, the EVA pilots will have an equivalent to Misato, and there will be a director at NERV to replace Gendo), but none will appear in this RP for any reason. 
-The EVAs will be different; they will share the numerical designations of canon EVAs, but will appear completely differently, and may have completely different backstories and purpose. For example, Unit 02 may not be for physical combat it may be for long range weaponry.
-EVA's do not have to be plugged in at all times to function. They have a 12 hour battery life, and are always charging when not in a mission.
-SEELE does not exist, however there is a SEELE counter part. This PERSON wants the destruction of all humanity, in order for Humans to reach the next level of evolutoon

Similarities:
-All Angels are the same
-All organizations are the same, Except SEELE
-The Vatican Treaty is in affect, meaning limited spaces available

Rules: 
1. Don't God-Mod. "Asuka punched stupid Shinji" is not an acceptable post. "Asuka swung a punch at stupid Shinji" is an acceptable post. See the difference? With the alternative, you give the other person a chance to choose how they will react.

2. The above is not sanction to avoid everything that your opponent throws at you. Take some hits, and your opponent will do in kind. Generally, though, try and sort out how the fight will end, instead of just trying to make your character win.

3. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES are you to EVER kill off someone else's character, unless you have THEIR CONSENT to do so.

4. Be respectful to everyone and have fun. 

5. Swearing is allowed, don't go overboard like Samuel L. Jackson

6. Romance is allowed and encouraged, but there are two rules. Firstly, keep it realistic - love at first sight doesn't work, even between teenagers. It'll take time. Secondly, keep it PG-13. I can't stress this enough. If things are about to go too far, take it to PMs. 
 
7. To prove you read the rules, please write, "Stupid Shinji" at the bottom of your CS
