Re-genesis: And Thous Trough Fiction Earth Was Reshaped
Out Of Character (OOC) Basic SynopsisIt stated on October 20 2014 AKA "Arrival Day" with "The Arrival" (20-10-AY) when the 12 "Gates" which defied all laws of physics and which didn't bulge against the rain of ICBMs that humanity fired at them, appeared 50 km above the surface of Earth.
From time to time one of the "Gates" would open and things which, until then on Earth, only existed only in fiction, myths, art or imagination, appeared. Dragons, mages, elves, robots and many more begun to fill the world. To make things even worse each location which appeared would "stretch" the Earth, pushing away what was located there when the location appeared, and soon Earth started to have gigantic patches which sometimes didn't even fit in the climate and vegetation of the area. From parts of Azeroth (Warcraft) to the Academy City (To Aru Universe) many thing begun to appear all over the world.
Now we shall embark upon this world from the small European town of Buje. Today's Europe which is facing grim moments as the sudden appearance of a large part of China from Fallout (from 2050 in the Fallout universe) a few years ago lead to the lost of much of Europe to Chinese forces.
The RP will start in the town of Buje, which severs as one of the transfer and living places for refugees, human or not, from the more northern parts of Europe.
Except for the core which can be observed using Google Map or another similar service Buje now has also changed as it is:
All across the hills around the core of the city before "The Arrival" slums and refugee camps have spawned, reaching somewhere between 20,000-100,000 in population (due to a significant presence of refugees no listed in official files).
A EUFOR base and airfield also have been build north from the town to help control the Alpine area of Slovenia and defend the Sava river valley, one of the rare parts of the Pannonian basin which evaded becoming a mountain region from the Golden Sun, thus becoming one of the key sources of food for the remains of EU.
The valleys around the city have been turned into as efficient as possible agricultural lands, mostly direct consumption cultures like wheat to evade the cost of nurturing livestock.
All industrial facilities have been turned towards the needs of stopping the advances of China into EU territory, AKA they are producing weapons and military supplies.
20 October 2014 (Arrival Day of Arrival Year) - "The Arrival" in which multiple locations and races from Earth's mythology and fiction appear, causing panic and disaster as they do. Some of them include: Parts of Azeroth, Discworld, parts of Weyard, the Dragon race.
14 January 2015 (Re-genesis Year 1)
Golden Sun fires, converging over the place where Mt. Aleph appeared in this world - near the Hungarian city of Debrecen. The resulting release of Psyenergy both turns most of the Pannonian basin into mountains. Soon Adepts start to pop up all over the world.
20 March RY 3 (2017)
The eastern part of China, hailing from the Fallout universe 27 years before the nuclear war which lead to the events of Fallout appears north of Scandinavia. In the next 5 years this county used its more advanced technology to push into Europe. EU and allies have been forced to abandon all territory north from the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathian and the Pannonia mountains (which formed as a result of the previously mentioned Golden Sun event). Small holdouts are still present in the form of the Crimean peninsula, Iceland, Ireland and Scotland.

1. "Arrivals"
"Arrivals" are when the "Gates" open and bring people, locations or whole lands to Earth. When an "Arrival" happens it will arrive at a specific geographic coordinates of Earth and push aside whatever it was until it is reaches full size. This will increase the surface area of Earth, trough from above 50km Earth's surface will appear the same as it was before "The Arrival".
It has been confirmed the size of an "Arrival" is usually connected with how much people know about the thing that is "Arriving". That means that both the Christian Heaven & Hell would almost certainly appear in their whole size. But the random nature of what will "Arrive" is still now showing any sort of pattern or regularity.
2. Those which "Arrived"
Named with different labels, from "Newcomers" to "Portal Scum' those are those which come with an "Arrival". Hailing from different worlds and races if separated from their fellow kin they commonly end up as wanderers which everyone scorns trough in more advanced countries there are efforts to integrate "Arrived" individuals into society, but with limited success if they are not in a large group.
It is also noted that those which "Arrived" are outside of the rule of usual laws of physics. Rather they are ruled by their own respective rules which are related to the fictional universe they come from.
3. The Golden Sun
The Golden Sun is a event that ushered on the end of Golden Sun: The Lost Age and released psyenergy upon the world of Weyard. But when Golden Sun was unleashed on Earth it had a drastic effect - it spawned Pysenergy over the world creating Adepts between ordinary humans and those which "Arrived" showing that the things that "Arrived" can spread their influence both over Earth and each other. It also confirmed that the rules of one "Arrived" are equal to the rules of another "Arrived" showing that for example in the future a person cloud be a immortal vampire, Adept and mage at the same time.
4. The "Stigma" and the "Anti-Arrivals"
Roughly after a year from "The Arrival" non-adults would, in rare cases develop strange moles somewhere on their bodies. At first this was ignored but in 3 RY one of such people showed the ability to negate a magical attack from a Orc Shaman, and many similar reports came in, mostly about defensive abilities like creating shields which blocked all attacks and so on, trough offensive abilities were also witnessed. The strange moles were now renamed "Stigma" and the people with them "Stigma Holders". In RY 5 a new name was also given to the "Stigma Holders" after one scientist hypotheses that "Stigma" and those born with them were a way that Earth was trying to fight the "Arrivals" and "Sigmas" and those which had them were some sort of anti-bodies. From that day the "Stigma Holders" were also known as "Anti-Arrivals".
But even "Stigma Holders" are not enough to stop the "Arrivals" and with each time the "Gates" open the future looks darker and darker.

Your character can be a mythological, anime, novel or other fictional character of any kind. It can also be a regular human, "Stigma Holder" or Adept from this Earth.
If it is a existing race in the home universe/setting of the character you have to put a link to the Wikipedia/Wikia article of the race. If not you have to fill in a Race Creation Sheet.
Home universe/setting is from which universe or setting the character comes. If it is a universe of anime/game/novel and so on that a link to the appropriate Wikipedia or Wikia article is required. If you want to use your own universe then you must fill a Setting Creation Sheet.
Appearance is to be a picture of good description.
I want a nice sizable bio which follows the character's story from "Arriving" on Earth (for "Arrived" characters), "The Arrival" (character which were on Earth before "The Arrival") or from when they were born (for those rare ones which were born after "The Arrival") to the RP starting date.
Personality can be a few words or even left to be roleplayed completely. But if you are planning to use a major character from one of the "Arrived" locations then you need link his character page from Wikipedia or a Wikia.
The lists of skills, abilities and equipment is for easy management of said. Fill in as much as possible to make it as clear as possible.

If you don't have a name for you setting you can just put (character name)'s setting with the character being the one coming from this setting.
Technological Level - Use Earth's history as the most relevant one. Like 6 century Europe, 1900's America and so on. If more advanced then our Earth then compare to any well known Science Fiction setting.
