Neon Genesis Evangelion: Compiled World
I. Intro
Fifteen years after a catastrophe known as 'Second Impact', Earth is being attacked by Alien beings called 'Angels' which seek to raze the fortress city of Tokyo-3 for their own sinister purposes. These beings, similar to the Kaiju in movies, are immune to nearly all forms of conventional weaponry, and can only be opposed by strange mechs called ‘Evangelions’, which in turn are piloted by children, whose 'strength of heart' can cause the machines they run to emit the same energy that the Angels use to render missiles, artillery, and even nuclear blasts ineffective.
NERV, the organization which maintains and uses the Evangelions, is in fact a subordinate group for SEELE, a secret organization that secretly controls world politics to serve their secret agenda: The Human Instrumentality Project, which aims to merge all human souls into one entity in 'Third Impact'. Gendo Ikari, NERV's leader, had plans to bend the Human Instrumentality Project to his own agenda: To reunite with his dead wife, Yui Ikari, during the merging of all human souls. To do this, he made sure that his son, Shinji Ikari, would be the pilot of the most important Evangelion, Unit-01, and unwittingly bring about 'Third Impact'.
It happened; Shinji Ikari, while trying to save a fellow pilot, Rei Ayanami, triggered an incomplete Third Impact which devestated the planet. Fourteen years later, he was woken up and tricked into creating a Fourth Impact. Then he actually found his courage, grew up, and taking responsibility for his actions, defeated his father Gendo and risked all to restore the world by making it so that Angels and Evangelions did not exist. This was all in your History textbooks.
You live in the world Shinji finally succeeded in saving: The world of the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. It is a peaceful world (most of the population being subjected to Instrumentality and then having their individuality restored more than a decade later will do that). Some people resent Shinji Ikari for bringing down disaster on them in the first place, but even more revere him for actually growing a spine and reversing the damage and then some. You can even talk to him and his wife, Mari Illustrious Makanami, and his exes, Asuka Langley Sorhyu and Kaworu Nagisa (and his adoptive sister, Rei Ayanami), from time to time; you live in the same town.
But SEELE's lingering obsession and frustrated desires cannot be defied so easily...
------
You were camping out with Ken Illustrious Ikari, son of Shinji and Mari, when it happened.
The sky turned red again, the campsite was engulfed in a pillar of light, and instead of the pristine Hakone countryside, you are now on a hill overlooking Tokyo-3, a city you only knew from textbooks as the original Tokyo was restored when Shinji Ikari fixed everything. You see Sachiel, an Angel who was Shinji's first kill, advancing towards the city, mundane ordnance ineffective against it as seen in the history videos you were forced to watch at school. You have a few adult supervisors; among them is Adult Shinji himself, who is flashing back to the past he had thought resolved. One wrong move and you're dead, either by the hands of the Angels or by humans who might see you as enemy spies.
What do you do? What do you and the other children do?
II. Lore and System-less play
Consult the EvaGeeks WIki for further details, but long and short of it is that your OCs are from after Rebuild of Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 (4.0), the final movie in the franchise as a whole. You are mainly OCs, kids aged 14 - 16, and the only adults are various Canon Characters who are with you camping out (you can play them with special permission). You do not start out with an Evangelion or any sort of Mech and have to rely on your knowledge of the world's future in order to get by... And said knowledge might be imperfect due to Alternate Universe shenanigans.
Do not let Gendo or SEELE or the JSSDF (Japanese Special Self-Defense Forces) catch you.
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 an AT-Field.
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 do not start out with Evangelions.
5.) If you are permitted to play Kaworu, he has lost his Angel powers and cannot get them back. Disregarding this will lose you your permission.
6.) There are no stats or rolling; we go by pure narrative storytelling. This is not a license to cheat and win everything by yourself; see Rule #1.
7.) Rule #6 might change if enough players want it and it's really necessary.
