[hider=Augur and Shade] The end of the world was nothing like it had been, during the last iteration. Where once the caustic static of Null Space had reigned, there now existed golden constellations and an oily ocean of cosmic dissonance. One thing had not changed, however. The gigantic machine that whirred and clicked against itself; shifting luminous shards of broken chroma. [color=778899]"I told ya,"[/color] said the woman shaped shadow in the machine's center, [color=778899]"each rewind has a new and unpredictable effect."[/color] Her voice was broken, but easily understood; a metallic twitch, here and there. Umbral digits extended toward a shard of acidic green, locking it between two gears. The machine, the Augur, groaned in protest before settling into stillness. 'Amara', as she had always said her name was, stepped forward, her shadow falling over the myriad orbs hovering just outside the Augur's platform. [color=778899]"This time, I think we'll be tryin' a different approach."[/color] Where the shadow of the shadow fell, the orbs lost their form. As they broke apart, they were pulled into the new World Shard. As protocol dictated; they were changed, mingled and manifested. They would not remember what they had created, nor their journey. They would be nothing like the champions who had fought to the end of Esoteric Reality. Amara's visage split; a scythe's blade of a smile forming across her face. Soon, she would follow them. As she always did.[/hider] Hi. I'm Fi. I hope to guide you through the intricacies of [i]Black Rose Egress[/i]; an RP inspired by countless things and set in a universe that has been lovingly crafted. I won't waste much time, so I'll set down the basics; below. Admittedly, I have a [i]lot[/i] of things planned for this setting. Please bear with my gratuitous use of strange terms. As well as my poor grasp of aesthetically pleasing formatting. [b]•[/b] We will be playing the recycled Amalgam Souls of champions past, arranged into new form and given new strength. While this creates new potential in the Augur, the Amalgam Souls are stripped of their memories and forced into an unfamiliar World Shard; becoming entirely new mortal beings. [b]•[/b] There will be two connected realities within this World Shard. One being Corporeal Reality, where the Amalgam Souls are simply humans. The other is Esoteric Space, where the potential of Amalgams are awakened. [b]•[/b] The date in Corporeal Reality is; [i]September 3rd, 2037.[/i] [b]•[/b] The starting point in Corporeal Reality is; [i]Cobalt Coast City.[/i] [b]•[/b] Amalgams will be pulled into Esoteric Reality at [i]11:11 PM[/i], and will meet the night the RP begins. [b]•[/b] Esoteric Reality mimics Cobalt Coast City, albeit with major changes to certain aspects to the cityscape. (This will be elaborated upon.) [b]•[/b] This is all to gauge interest in the idea. More information will be provided, in the OOC section. [b]•[/b] I am willing to answer questions, here or through PM. Discord is also a viable method of contact. I know that this doesn't give a lot to go on, but I plan to engage persistently in discussion; assuming interested parties appear. This is intended to be a 'High Casual' affair with a minimum of 3-4 paragraphs a post, along with encouraged communication between the Players involved. Thank you for your time. I hope I have at least somewhat piqued your curiosity.
