Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans - Altered Cast


I. Intro

It is the year 323 of the Post Disaster Era, and Humanity is in the grip of a vise of its own making.

The military organization Gjallarhorn, originally founded to prevent a repeat of the catastrophic Calamity War, has fallen into stagnation and decadence, putting most of civilized space under their iron boot. Nowhere was this boot more felt than on Mars, the Red Planet, where poverty is rampant and the authorities are brutal, with any expression of discontent with how things are silenced with the club and bullet. In the streets of Mars' cities, children are regularly taken and sold as 'Human Debris'; slaves to be implanted with illegal cybernetics and used as cannon fodder by various mercenaries, pirates, and bandits who prey on those who cannot afford Gjallarhorn's taxes for protection.

You are some of those children (or teenagers if you managed to survive), owned by Chryse Guard Security, a private security firm who hires out both adult soldiers and Human Debris as fighters. This company, also called CGS, is not rich enough to afford Mobile Suits, the humanoid machines which make up the main strength of any decent armed group, having to content itself with smaller 'Mobile Workers' which are barely usable for war. However, there are two things that lift you from being ordinary and unremarkable.

One is that you have one of the legendary Gundam Frames, the Gundam Barbatos, in your headquarters. True, it has been repurposed into a power source, and cannot be used for combat yet, but should one repair it and use it as a weapon once more, it would be lethal even to other Mobile Suits.

Another is that the two leaders of the Martian Independence Movement, the 'Children of Revolution', has specifically requested CGS' assistance in escorting them to Earth, where they plan to argue and plead for more rights for the Chryse Region of Mars. Why is that the case? Well, no one knows, but perhaps it is your opportunity to earn your freedom... Or fight for it.

Wait, there are two leaders this time?

II. Lore and AU Elements.

Basically, this is an Alternate Universe of Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, an installment of the Gundam Series set in its own universe. What's so alternate about this? Well, every canon character has been replaced with an OC, including the protagonists, who will be replaced by the players' own characters. Not just that, but enemies, aka Gjallarhorn and various pirates, can also be played with special GM Permission.

Consult the Gundam Wiki for further info (the Post Disaster page is also relevant).

III. Rules

1.) No Godmoding or Powergaming, aka no controlling other players' actions, no defeating your enemy in one shot, and no shrugging of all hits without good-enough armor.
2.) Any consenting relationship between people of the same age group is allowed, whether it's Homosexual or Heterosexual. If you cannot stand such things, don't post here in the first place.
3.) Be polite to others.
4.) You can get Gundams besides the Barbatos later.
5.) You can have Custom Mechs which are not Gundams later.

IV. Character Sheet:

[b]Name:[/b] (Don't call yourself 'Zero' or 'The Red Comet'.)
[b]Appearance:[/b] (No IRL pictures)
[b]Age:[/b] (14 to 16 if a kid; older if you're an adult)
[b]Bio:[/b] (Backstory; at least one paragraph of four to five lines each - More is preferred.)
[b]Mundane Skills:[/b] (What is your OC good at?)
[b]Personality:[/b] (At least one paragraph of three to five lines each - More is preferred.)
[b]Do you have the Alaya-Vijyana System?:[/b] (Type 'Y' or 'N'. If Y, you can have up to 3, but if every OC has 3, I will lower the limit to 2.)

Might have a really vague idea but we'll see how it turns out I guess. Been kind of in a big RPing slump for a while so hopefully I can get this to work, but if I end up not being able to keep up or whatever at least Gundam being what it is makes it easy to write out my character if it comes down to it. XD

And here I was thinking that G-Witch would've brought in a bunch more Gundam RPers. :(

@BigPapaBelial, @Rin:

Perhaps the two of you can be enough? At minimum, we need an Orga and a Mikazuki equivalent; I can provide the equivalents of everyone else myself.

I guess we could see how that turns out. Might be tempted to at least try for the Mikazuki replacement but we'll see I guess.

@BigPapaBelial

Not necessarily direct alternates; I only proposed them because players might find them easier. If you have a more original idea, you can make them as well.
