The world has entered a new age of technological advancement. Video games, television, hover vehicles of all shapes and sizes. Virtual reality interface systems with internet servers rivalling the mythical Digital World have become commonplace. In the land of the humans things run rather smoothly. A technologically advanced, if not a bit overly reliant, World has risen. And yet, despite the setting all else seems unchanged. Children go to school, teens and adults work as they can, various individuals rebel in different ways, the government keeps its secrets, civil servants do what they do and criminals prey on the helpless. 

“What if I told you the Digital World was real?”
“I’d say you were nuts.” 
“And if I could prove the existence of the Digital monsters of legend?” 
“When was the last time you ate and had a good night’s rest?” 

In the shadows of the net, hidden away in a world parallel to our own lies the home of these creatures once thought to be a fallacy, a figment of human imagination. Digimon, as they are known, live, play and work. However, unbeknownst to the innocent of both worlds the Demon Lords of the Digital World were moving, gaining power and spreading their influence. The first year of their rise to power was instant. And yet, 5 years later, though once six, the Great Demon Lords of the Digital World find themselves down to four. It began with the betrayal of Beelzemon. 

[b]The Slumberer[/b]
Though he is one of the great general Leviamon spends his time slumbering in the depths of the the Net Ocean near the dark area. No digimon dares ventures to his supposed territory. Even the other Demon Lords leave the massive beast alone. It was decided he would be left alone unless the Demon Lords were to be driven into a corner. 

[b]The Traitor[/b]
Beelzemon, a digimon of great power, capable of possible becoming the most powerful of all the Demon Lords, save for perhaps Leviamon, left the sides of his former comrades. Though the embodiment of the sin of gluttony initially he grow beyond such chains. He grew to better understand the innocent digimon of the Digital World. He grew to feel a compassion for them and turned his back on the other lords. He has not been seen since his departure some 3 years ago. Even now, after his battle with Belphemon, he is sought after by the other Demon Lords to be made an example of and to be forced to use his power for them. 

[b]The Defeated[/b]
Belphemon attempted to bring Beelzemon back a year after he left. This led to the two coming to blows. The battle was great. In the end Beelzemon managed to deal a powerful blow forcing his former ally into what is known as the beast’s “Sleep Mode.” Many misjudge this admittedly adorable creature to be a sort of mascot or underling of the current four Demon Lords, but he is resting, healing, biding his time until he can rejoin the fray. 

[b]The Remaining[/b]
The remaining active members of the Demon lords continue to spread their influence, wreaking havoc in the Digital World in their quest for dominance. Daemon, Barbamon, Laylamon and Lucemon show no mercy to those who oppose them. However, they rarely move of their own volition. They use pawns and minions to complete their dirty work as a show of their power. They are not needed if their forces can get the jobs done. And if the inhabitants of the digital world can’t take down their minions how could they hope to handle the four themselves? 

[b]The Plan for Salvation[/b]
At the beginning of the fourth year of the Demon Lord’s reign a young man by the name of Junichi Miyamoto was contacted by an unknown entity. Fearful that the rise of the Demon Lords, and chaos of the Digital World, would spill over into his own world a Junichi developed a program with help from this unknown source. It would allow a human the chance to travel between his own and the Digital World. All that was needed was a group to help combat the rising evil. However, Junichi’s unknown aid would be tasked with the creation of this group while he got to work creating another program. 

Junichi would soon create the popular app Digi-Protocal. The public has access to features that include an online trading card game in which players collect cards and strategically play against others with the aid of a virtual simulation of the digimon they’ve collected. Additionally owners of the app are treated to a guide to various digimon as well as an augmented reality camera which add various digimon to shots taken.

Unbeknownst to those who purchase the app is a series of others features that’ll be acceptable only to the chosen few. Digi-volution, Digi-modify, Digi-track, Digi-Map, and Digi-HUD were just a few of the programs Junichi had developed to help the Digi-Destined, as he learned they would be called, bond with and help their future digital partners combat the threat that laid before the. 

Now, coming into the beginning of the sixth year of the rule of the Demon Lords, the time has come for the destined to be chosen. It has taken time for Junichi’s unknown friend to decide using the app and to raise a group of digimon who will help them fight. Should they accept the burden they will be offered, the fate of the Digital World and the real world will be in their hands.

Alright guys! So, that is a bit of backstory on what we’ll be going with. From here on out I will be adding more information, but not in the form of a narrative as I did above. 

[b]How?[/b]
You wanna know what I decided?! Number 2!
So, each player will be in charge of designing their tamer. You will also pick your partner digimon as well as their digivolution line. HOWEVER, another player will be in charge of developing their personality to either compliment or contrast your character’s (you two can discuss as needed). I understand this plan of action comes with the risk of one player dropping. However, in the event that a player drops I have a sort of plan. To elaborate, if a play drops that means a tamer and digimon slot will be opened. The person who was controlling the digital partner of said (dropped)player will most likely be able to pick of the digimon of whichever tamer is left without a buddy. I know that seems confusing, but trust me, a plan is better than nothing. Additionally, not trying this out because of the fear of failure would be like saying we might not as well try to RP at all. 

[b]Digivice[/b]
Ladies and Gentlemen, our digivices will be our phones. Upon entering the digital world the tamer’s phones will transform:
[center][img]https://i.imgur.com/nGuelrp.jpg[/img]
(Of course, you get to decide the color scheme of your own.)[/center]
They will retain the features held before, along with stored data and the previous capabilities, but they will gain access to all the features of the Digi-Protocal App and much more as we come to find out. They will be durable, one of a kind and pretty much beyond anything the characters have ever had access to before as far as the realms of phones go. 

[b]For Your Consideration[/b]
I'm thinking the final group will be something like 6-8 people. This isn't really a large group, but that's what it is considered in the tags. I do not run things on a first come first serve basis. I'll accept any number of Characters applications up to a date that is not yet set. From there I will approve the people who will form the group. I recommend you have an idea of the digimon you want to use in mind when drafting the tamer, but do not partner up yet as we do not know for sure right off the bat who will be in the roleplay. 

[b]Rules:[/b]
[indent][list][*]First and foremost, standard RPG rules do indeed apply.
[*]As the GM of this roleplay my word is law. As such, please follow the guidelines set by myself along with any, and all, Co-GMs.
[*]No Mary/Gary Sue, Overpowered, bullshit tier characters please. While it is important to note that not every character will be on the same level, it is also important that nobody is immortal/untouchable.
[*]No power playing, metagaming, whatever. OOC knowledge should not be utilized in the IC, you should not, in any major way, attempt to control, harm, or move another player’s character without permission.
[*]Romance is, of course, allowed. However, please take any sexual content and other acts above the PG-13 mark to PM or fade to black or whatever
[*]It is likely that there may be death, but all matters will be discussed beforehand. Still, there will most certainly be destruction and gore, within reason. So, please be aware of this. 
[*]Have fun and try to be as active as your schedule allows. I know it is tough, but please try to let someone know whether or not you'll need to go if you can.
[*]I honestly don't mind cursing or other variations of coarse language too much. However, please do not go overboard.
[*]Being that this is casual level roleplay I expect a paragraph per post. Understand that this is a MINIMUM requirement, lowballing at that, as I understand it can be difficult to slam out large posts on a regular basis for some.
[*]Finally, as the Gm of this RP I reserve the right to add and/or change any of these rules as I see fit, although I will only do so within reason of course.
[hider]If you read all of these rules then please complete the following sentence somewhere in your Character Sheet: “My favorite digimon is…”[/hider][/list][/indent]
