Thanks for the interest, everyone. The OOC is now up.

@Archmage MC
I need more details, so it depends on how you describe it; it can either be a balanced machine with its own strengths and weaknesses, or an overpowered piece of garbage. Framewerks can be experimental in their design up to a certain point.


We as the human race would fight and bicker among each other over the slightest things... a bit funny, isn't it? Since the time that we could walk we would kill and lay waste to each other over petty things such as territory and religion, even putting our ideals on the line while at the same time back at home our people would fight over trivial things.

Justice… equality… hunger… appearances… whether someone died for the right cause or not...

Anything you could imagine with your insignificant head we fought over... and many died.

You would think for such an advanced race compared to all the primitive animals that were alive at the time that we’d be far better, wouldn't we? No. The truth was that we were nothing than primates ourselves; animals who could not go beyond our differences to unite and join one another and create a better world.

In the end, we just destroyed our planet through both war and pollution… but I suppose you too know that, don't you? But now, we have out civilization back... we have everything that we want to protect.

Though, we all still remember in the year 2267 when our world was nothing more than a nuclear dump with only a few patches of habitable lands left. It wasn't until a man with technology unlike any other finally united the Earth forces under a single banner through brute force by killing anyone who opposed him did we finally become whole. He built an impenetrable fortress and had his forces cultivate and secure whatever lands could be saved by using devices meant to preserve the lands that were untainted by the countless wars we held. Communities were built within these lands, before steps to move forward were introduced.

In the year 2321, the man who united Earth led expeditions from Earth to cultivate new planets with flagships each containing the newest development; the Framewerks. These were powerful mechanized piloted units that can only be used by a select few individuals after years of training, but they allowed us to conquer planets with ease.

For years we slowly captured planets and things were working, we were finally at peace and enjoying things for we thought we were alone in the universe.

Or so we had thought...

Years had passed and in the year 2578, we finally lost communication with a human colony on our outer rim all of a sudden. At first, we thought it was just an error with the signal… until seconds later another colony tuned in and told us that they were being attacked.

We suddenly found ourselves thrown into a war with an unknown alien race for years, with all of our communications being cut off with all of our outer rim planets. Despite all the reinforcements we sent, we never heard from them… we could only assume the worst had happened.

It was only in the year of 2590 that we finally were able to make establish contact with one of our outer rim planets due to the efforts of the man who united Earth who was dedicated on find out what happened... but what we had found, was something far, far worse than discovering hell itself.



They were slain by an alien race called the Cruxi… and they had technology and firepower that was on a whole new level compared to us. Plasma weapons, Wormhole-using spaceships, soldiers equipped with personal barriers… you name it, they probably had it. However, their numbers weren’t as vast as ours. So we threw ourselves at them in order to keep them at bay, and to keep them from reaching more of our home worlds.

Though a strategy like that can only last so long until all of humanity starts to believe that we’re fighting a losing war… but that’s where you come in, Cadet.

You’re here to clean up our petty mistakes of our pasts and to fight our battle. That’s the sad truth of the matter. Remember how I mentioned those Frameworks earlier, right? Well, you along with others have been chosen to pilot experimental Frameworks in hopes of turning the tides of this war.
Truth be told, I don’t envy you… because I feel you’re going to be thrown straight into the horrors of things… I just pray you make it out of this alive, even if we don’t.

Link to the interest check
Welcome to Souls of Steel (or SoS for short), reboot of Hearts of Metal. In this, pilots are recruited to pilot massive, Evangelion-sized war machines called Framewerks that are humanity's last hope against the Cruxi menace. The combat effectiveness of the pilots are determined with two attributes: Experience and Synchronization Rate. These will be randomized for every pilot, but are affected by their age: older pilots have more experience, while younger pilots have a higher synchronization rate.

To have a character sheet submitted, you must first submit your pilot's age, and after I have provided the experience and synchronization rate you may submit the sheet with them included.

Some ground-rules:
1. Please wait for at least two posts before making a new post.
2. If you need to be absent for a while due to real-life issues or anything else, please inform in the thread or through a PM so I'll know. Thank you for being a cool guy.
3. Collaboration is recommended for dialogue and/or combat between characters. Meetingwords is a good place to make them, for example.
4. Military rules apply (no possession of weaponry or sharp objects while in the base, superiors must be greeted with sir or their respective rank and so on).
5. Site rules apply.
6. Have fun, and ask me if there's anything on your mind.

Character sheets will come in the OOC provided there is enough interest, but you may request for your character's experience and synchronization value if you provide an age between 14-25.

We could actually do with either moving towards another event (which admittedly seems impossible with these girls all over the place, but something to consider), or giving us more to hunt. I predict that if tit skit reaches the action the pace slows into a drag.
@AtomicNut
That's disturbing considering how she has a zero in that department.
It's cute how Kei wants Julia-sempai to notice her, and even cuter when Mary's too embarrassed to follow them.
@kusanagifire
Oh yeah, Guts is the best:

@The book of bad juju
I just thought to mention it as a unique aspect of it. Also, I want to add that the character's disability is treated respectably ( at least outside of the henshin sequence, but I believe they had good intentions even there), and no other character actually mentions it or draws any attention to it at any point outside of the character herself at believable moments.
