In the year 24XX, the metropolis known as Aegis 09, was faced with a massive energy crisis. The city had begun to take in too much energy than its Force Metal Generators could produce, and as a result, could face a catastrophic power failure. In desperation, the city's scientists started to experiment, in an attempt to create an artificially more powerful variety of Force Metal. Through many errors, they seemingly created the perfect Force Metal that was dubbed "Crimson Nova". While it seemingly had more power than normal, the side effects were immediately noticed. Machines began to malfunction, reploids enhanced by the Force Metal began to go haywire and attack anyone around them, and the Crimson Nova metal started to corrupt the city's systems.
Aegis 09 had traded one crisis for another, and as a result of reckless experimentation, more than half of the city has been quarantined. Special forces units comprised of volunteers and soldiers are deployed on a daily basis to combat the constant threat of crimson reploids, and scientists are working around the clock to find a way to stop Crimson Nova. One such unit of is about to take a routine patrol through the quarantine zone, a patrol that would become a battle for survival.
REPLOIDS Artificially created androids that were given sentience, giving them feelings and intelligence comparable to humans. They were originally designed for the aid of humanity, but have since integrated themselves into society and have become their own people. They are near identical to humans and, in some cases, can only be differentiated by the plates over where their ears would be. Other times, they are easily distinguishable by their build, being more bulky, tall, or slender to fit the role they were designed for.
PSEUDOROIDS Often referred to as Falseroids, these androids share the sentience of they're reploid counterparts, but are distinguished by having more animalistic features than human ones. Also, unlike reploids, pseudoroids are created through bio metal, from which they gain their abilities and strengths from. In the past, pseudoroids were seen as beasts who could turn Maverick at any moment, but with recent events, they have been created to aid in the fight against Crimson Nova.
BIO-METAL/FORCE METAL Two forms of power that have been used throughout history for many, many purposes. While Bio-Metal was created as a means to power chosen reploids and for the creation of pseudoroids, Force Metal was created as a power source for machines and tools, and can even be used to enhance and upgrade reploids and pseudoroids alike. Many experimental, illegal, and dangerous forms of Bio-Metal and Force Metal have been created throughout history and have lead to many threats to humanity. Crimson Nova is a prime example that humanity is doomed to repeat past mistakes.
MAVERICK A term given to robots and/or androids who have essentially gone rogue, whether through the means of a virus, an error or glitch in their systems, or just because they choose to. Mavericks seek their own goals and will achieve them no matter what, usually at the cost of human and reploid lives. Maverick Hunters were created to oppose the rogue intelligences, and are instructed to do whatever it takes to apprehend, or in most cases, destroy/kill the Maverick.

Angela sat in silence after listening to what Gohan had to say. She stared at her ramen bowl, lost in thought. World threatening events? And she was one of the people he picked? She was just an inexperienced fighter, sure she won the tournament but that didn't hide the fact that she knew next to nothing about actual fighting techniques. The most she knew was to just give her all, take hits or Dodge them when need be. And she was chosen to be a protector of the planet? She felt a sick feeling wash over her, what if she refused? Would they be down a fighter? Have less of a chance for survival? What would happen to the planet? Her family?
Her family...
Angela took a deep breath and dug into her ramen bowl, finishing it in quick fashion. After her sudden feeding frenzy, she set the bowl down and thanked the shop owner before turning to Gohan. "I'm... I'm in... I only ask that you let me explain things to my mother and sister... Get them set and everything." She said. If this was a threat to the planet, it was a threat to her family. She wasn't about to let them down by running from something like this. Plus, it would be interesting to see what all this training would be about, maybe she'd actually learn more than just punches and kicks.
A collector of fighters? Angela couldn't help but be interested by the sounds of that, especially considering that Bakuto would be in on it too. But she was just about to head home with her prize money, she couldn't just move on to something else without letting her family know otherwise, she had a promise to keep after all. "Look... I appreciate that you've chosen me for this group of yours... But the main reason I joined this tournament was to use the prize money to help my family... I can't just forget about them." She said before turning to the ramen shop owner and thanking him for the bowl. She chuckled a bit after he himself had taken her autograph offer.
"You have anything to sign?" She asked the shop owner. "And besides... You seem to know me, but I don't even know you. Who are you?" She said as she turned back to the old man.
I'll have a post out later today. Again, sorry about the absence. Work is tough but it is slowing down to a point that I can become a little more active.
Angela was still suspicious of the man but was satisfied with his answer that he wasn't actually just tailing behind her. She turned back towards the ramen shop's owner. "Yeah, I'll also take a water..." She said before looking back at the old man. "Well... You found me... So what is it that you want with me?" She asked as she was given her water. "You want an autograph for one of your grandkids or something? Man... I'm really not used to fame..." She let out a sigh as she waited for the old man to answer her.
Anyone here a Fire Emblem fan, or have at least heard of it? If so, I'd like you to help me with a small project. While browsing the youtubes I found a couple of channels that did this kind of playthrough, a Pick My Edits run. Basically, if haven't heard of it, I basically start a game of either Fire Emblem 6, 7, or 8, and all of you fine individuals will choose how my game turns out. Change the classes of the characters and bosses, change they're growth rates, what character they are entirely, etc. The playthrough will be done on the hardest difficulty and is done just for the heck of it. This is all in good fun after all.
So, what do you all think? This sound interesting? If so, I'd like suggestions on which game to actually start with and after a good few replies, we will begin the edits. I look forward to seeing your ideas on how far we can push this. :)
