Carry On My Wayward Son

Edited it. So basically, Sariel is the only one who is open about their race?

Blood-Stained Despair (Corpse Party-based Crossover RP)

I have a few ideas. I don't think I'll do RWBY characters this time, though. Already used Yang and Pyrrha in two different crossovers.

I'll probably have two, I assume that's alright?

Persona: Soul Train

Accepted! Devil Arcana is now taken.

Blood-Stained Despair (Corpse Party-based Crossover RP)

I think I might quit my current crossover and join yours. I like the scenario way more. Definitely interested and would like to join.

Soul Eater: New Generation

I would make another one, but with the max of two characters, I was intending on making a female weapon for Grey's meister.

Soul Eater: New Generation

Edited as well.

Persona Roleplay, anyone?

It definitely was.

Sorry for making you wait, here it is.

In all of its terrible glory, the OCC!

"And that concludes it for our Midnight Mash! Now, we all jump aboard the Soul Train alongside of our insomniacs . . ."

Introduction

Introduction

Heat has taken the state of Colorado by storm. It is now mid-June and the school districts are now on vacation in the sleepy town of Bedford. As a result, more and more students have begun to tune into the daily Soul Train radio program which runs on the local classic rock station between the hours of one to five AM. Though insomnia is a trend now, it is not during the school year. And that's where we find our heroes and heroines.

Whether you're a middle school or high school student, a college student or a grown adult, you've been part of the program for a majority of the year . . the past couple of years, even. Taking up a fake alias, you join in a talk-show along side of various other anonymous users from around your town until you are able to counter your night terrors and ultimately succumb to sleep.

Everyone on the Soul Train has secrets.

. . or so the rumor goes.

And it's very much the truth. Everyone on the Soul Train has a secret of their own, a reason for their night terrors. A story to tell and a fear to overcome and not even that – a secret life?

Ratings have never been higher for the Soul Train. And that's because the regulars have begun to take up arms . . . against their own nightmares?

Oh, did we forget to mention that portion? I suppose so!

As it is so, the ratings for Soul Train have never been higher! As of recent, the night terrors have been creating a much more powerful influence over the town. The physical manifestations of people's night terrors begun to rabidly roam the streets at night while some are in deep REM state. Terrorizing and roaming about, they cause much chaos for the town and the only ones to strike them down? A series of masked, anonymous users of the Soul Train, armed to the core and ready to protect what they care about.

The only secret is your own . . and your identity.

Nobody knows who you are besides yourself. Nobody else who participates in Soul Train or listens to it has a clue as to who you are. You are a hero of the night and the only thing that people know you by is your . . . alias?

Of course, you're not completely hidden from secrecy. Your heroics are widely acknowledged by members of Bedford, though some may only treat you and the others are "town rumors" or "town lore". Word hasn't gotten outside of Bedford quite yet, but there's a belief that if the nightmares spread, then more heroes will rise. But nobody acknowledges your actions more than your listeners.

Every night, Soul Train is bombarded by listeners, asking for advice or asking questions to their idols, their heroes. Some members of Soul Train become so involved in this activity that they've begun to carry handheld radios in order to keep up with their fans! Though your tactics, weapons, weaponry and anything else will vary, depending on your personal tastes. Be wary though – you might just give yourself away!

But the most unique portion of anyone who is a member of Soul Train? The fact that they can have a companion at their side. No, no, not the other members of Soul Train, but you are able to fight with anyone you choose, of course. The fact that they are fighting along side of themselves -- well, a portion of themselves. A part of their soul. Persona.

A Persona, a weapon, your fans and a team of allies are your side seems great, right? But who knows how people would react if they found out it was you? Remember to stay alive, keep your identity a secret and stay in the game.

. . The night is alive. And you're one of the first people to get a taste of it.

Nightmares

Nightmares

Night terrors are appropriately nicknamed "Nightmares" (or as SEES or the members of P4 would call these "Shadows"). They are commonly described as the physical manifestation of one's deepest, darkest conscience, secret or/and fear. As far as their "anatomy" goes they vary in their physical attributes and "abilities". Nightmares might have speech and others may not, it varies. Truly, the only traits that Nightmares have in common is their easily see-able blackish-purple aura and the bone-chilling sense that you will get while being around them. Only Persona users are able to "kill" Nightmares, but the way to destroy a nightmare will vary depending on its weakness. Explore and try to find what each Nightmare is weak to and utilize that in order to kill it. Some Nightmares may even take the form of mythological creatures, so don't be caught off guard by them!

Nightmares are basically shadows. If you do not know what they are, read about them here.

Persona

Persona

A Persona is a manifestation of one's soul or personality and is often referred to as a mask for a hardships that a person faces. A Persona is made from one's emotions, strong and tamed and if a person were to create a strong resolution in their heart, a Persona would undergo metamorphosis to become a new form. Like Shadows, Persona are designed off of mythological creatures, Gods, etc.

In this Roleplay, you will only have one Persona and it must be from your Arcana. You may choose a Persona from any game or create your own, but it has to be approved by the GM or Co-Mods. Sorry guys, can't let you be OP, now can I? If your confused about anything involving Persona, you can read more about it here. You can also check the very same Wikia for examples of Persona.

Arcanas

Rules

• As far as the "nobody knows your identity" goes, there will be exceptions to this rule: best friends, siblings, parents, partners, etc. Play around with that!


• Everyone MUST have a secret or a reason for their terrors – but, do not reveal in the CS, flesh it out during the Roleplay!


• Since this Persona, romance is permitted! In fact, encouraged. But if you want sexy time, you do sexy time in PMs and not in the Roleplay.


• You'll get a warning if you start drama outside of the Roleplay, after that, you'll be kicked from the Roleplay.


• Not a rule, but I'd really love to see some proper grammar and character development here. Take your time when writing a response.


• If you have any questions, PM me or ask here in the thread, I will get back to you as soon as possible.


• Only one warning for godmodding, power-playing or meta-gaming.


• Do not kill another player's character without their permission. It is okay to attack their character, but not kill them.


• As a follow-up to the two previous rules: do not control another's character without their consent.


• Listen to the Co-Mods, they have the same powers that I do.


• Do not speed-post. There will not be a posting order, but I don't want two pages between just two people, alright?


• Enjoy the Roleplay and all the chaos to come!

Carry On My Wayward Son

Posted. Sorry for taking too long, been asleep up until about ten minutes ago.

Persona Roleplay, anyone?

Well, it'd be kind of great if you had a little experience with the Persona series before joining, but no matter. I'll tell as much as I can within the OOC.

Don't worry about your character right now. I'll have an OOC up later and you can design your character then. Just get started thinking about what type of person your character should be, what dark secrets they hold, their personality, their weapons, etc, etc.

A Persona is the manifestation of one person's soul. It is a psychological concept that has been versed throughout the series from being a dark side to the "other side" of a person, the one you don't want to see. They are creatures based off of mythological folklore from AROUND THE WORLD from Iraq, Egypt, Japan, Greek, Roman and so on. There is so many Personas for each arcana that is it ridiculous.

And yes! Tarot cards, the major 22 arcanas from Fool to the World. You can choose any in between such as Emperor, High Priestess, Hermit, etc. The Arcanas will be first come, first serve and may be reserved. Your Arcana will be reflected by your character (ex: a character with Lovers would be afraid of love, a character with Emperor/Empress would be a leader, so on and so forth).

Does that help?
