"Let me grab another biscuit. For some reason, I'm really hungry. Then we can head out. I'll just eat it on the way." He told her, walking over to grab another. "Sorry you have to hide... I wish you didn't, believe me I do." He told her, holding out his hand for her to climb on.

If he had the power to protect her, he would. But... he didn't. And so this was what they had to do.

Yato simply nodded when she told him her stomach felt better. He was still chewing on the biscuit, staring out the small window nearby, prepared to shield Lux from prying eyes should he need to.

He turned back to look at her when she ask what the room was for. "We cook food in it, like you just ate. Lots of people have to come in here to fix enough food for everyone that comes in this castle and so it needs to be big." He explained, picking up another biscuit.

"are we doing anything today? I want to see more, everything's so interesting, could we see some more flowers? I liked those"

"Mmm." He mumbled, his mouth full. Once he swallowed, he responded to her, "We could go spend some time in the garden. I don't think it'd be too hard to hide you out there. But just know that someone might see me and want to talk so you'll need to hide when they do. Can you promise me that?" He asked, looking over at her expectantly.

The Academy (MxM)

Lucas

_{"Hey, you! You smell nice!"}

Name: Lucas "Lulu" Bryton
Age: 20
Sexuality: Bisexual

Student
Class: Shapeshifter
Powers/abilities: Lucas can shift into the form of a Shiba Inu.

Likes: Dogs, People, Good Looking People, Food, Sunlight, Chasing Things, Napping, Honesty
Dislikes: Cats, Schoolwork, Rain, Ugly People, Mean People, Children, Water, Vegetables, Liars
Personality: Lucas is a free spirit and does what he wants. He's generally kind to a fault but is also very blunt and will tell people exactly what he's thinking without regards for their feelings. He doesn't believe in lying and hates people who do. He's grown to like his abilities and often uses them to get away with things he otherwise wouldn't be able to. I mean... Who can say no to the face of a Shiba Inu, naked or not? Though, there are those few times he's gotten scared senseless and shifted while inside a girl's locker room before. Not exactly his best moment. He'd always been told, even before his powers started showing up, that his spirit animal was a dog and now well... he can sort of confirm that.

History: Lucas grew up in a large family. He has many brothers and sisters but is the only one that seems to have acquired their mother's ability to transform. [This is all I really feel needs to be revealed here. :P If you want more, lemme know.]
Other info: Lucas has dated many people but none of the relationships have lasted more than a few months. He's all but convinced he's not meant to date.

Lucas does indeed have a pet Shiba Inu with whom he is best friends with. The dog, named Shelly, was his family's dog and when he moved to the academy, he asked if he could bring her with him. He uses her sometimes to get out of sticky situation since people know he transforms into a Shiba Inu, he can get Shelly to act as a decoy for him while he runs away.

@Suku Looks fine to me. I like the RL appearance for some reason. :P

Athalia Academy Season Four: Back on Track (Freaking Finally, amirite?)

Eric's arms reflexive lifted up to try and catch her, hesitating as she caught herself. Lucy, meanwhile, was grinning from ear to ear and happily jumped from Eric's shoulder to Ryuu's hand and began her climb up to his shoulder. Eric swallowed as Andromeda asked him to help her. "It's no problem." He replied, his voice small. He walked up closer to her so that she could wrap her arm around his neck and if she did, he'd start walking with her towards the infirmary. "Y-You should b-be more... careful." He told her, pausing to reflect on what he was saying to her. He might have sounded like an asshole... She probably knew she should be more careful... He was such an idiot.

Meanwhile... Lucy grinned up at the floating man before realizing he was a floating man. "WOAH! What the heck are you?" She asked, staring up at Oliver. She'd seen some weird stuff when Eric doodles sometimes but he'd since stopped since it usually ended badly. She shivered at the thought, though Ryuu would probably think the shiver was in fear of Oliver.

-whistles innocently as she enters-

Hello! I literally have no place coming into this RP, however... I can't seem to stop myself from wanting to join. So feel free to shoo a lowlife like me away. (I'm in college and time is very limited. May not even get one post out a week, very slow poster when in school. I'm currently on break which is why I'm so active right now. so ye.)

Paradise (Reboot)

Throwing this up here just to let many eyes view it. It's intended to be a smaller group, so ye. Thanks for reading should you! :D

In 2045 a new form of gaming was released into the public. It was said to be a surreal experience and it didn't disappoint. Paradise, as the game was called, ran on the newly developed game system named The Revelation. Developed by ᴢᴏʟᴛᴀᴄ Industries. The game and it's system were pioneered by a man by the name of Miles Standish. This game has everything any gamer could need. Countless worlds to explore each with their own unique culture and wildlife.

This is where they come in. A small group of friends that have been playing together for about a year or so now. None of them know one another, but they are all good friends despite the distance. Their hangout is a chat-room that the group managed to buy together. They call it 'The Cave.' While being one of the lower tier rooms, it has everything they could possibly need. Together, over the years, they managed to buy several things for the room like couches, games, a TV, books, posters. They made it feel like a home and it was where they spent most of their time.

However, one afternoon, while they were hanging out in The Cave going over what they'd earned that day, one of the members turns on the TV to find something rather horrifying. News that just recently, the main developer of the game had died. Worried, they all immediately look to the news feed, finding that every channel in existence was discussing the young man's death. Hours later, a message pops up on their internal screens. The late Miles Standish's avatar appears before every player currently in the game and begins to speak to them.

"Hello fellow adventurers, assassins, mercenaries, bards, etc etc. I think it's due time that I explain the situation to you. I have a little proposition for all of you." He begins, his face masked in blackness.

"If you can discover the secrets I have placed through the game, then I will give you all of my vast riches and you shall live like a king." He continued, turning his head slightly as if looking at something in the distance. "There is no time limit, however... knowing the clever nature of the lot of you, I'd encourage you to work in haste. There will only be one winner."

"I won't be handing out any clues so... This is all I offer you. Good Luck." He finished, the screen blipping out as the characters returned to the reality of the situation. In each of their inboxes is a small book icon labeled, "Book of Life"

There are rumors that float around.. strange rumors that Standish isn't dead. And that another rival company is after all of his secrets. F.A.Z.E. is an organization that showed it's ugly mug a few months after the announcement of Standish's death. Their mission? Get his riches and shut down the server so that they can launch their own without resistance.

Welcome to... Paradise!

Rules

1) One character per person.
2) Respect is a must. Disrespect will not be dealt with in any case.
3) Metagaming is a no-no. Same with sexual themes. This is NOT a romance centered RP. There can be romance, but it will not be a centerpiece of the RP.
4) Mary/Gary Sues are bad. Your character should have flaws, give them some! (It'll make your character better and more interesting, I promise.)
5) Characters may start at Level 5. No higher. They can start at any level below that. If you're planning on making a character any higher than that, please discuss it with the GM first. Up until level 10, players in game are required to stay at the starter planet and attend school. Leveling up is a fairly slow process but shouldn't take long.
6) Three Line Minimum
7) Have fun!!

In order to have a balanced party, there will be slots for different classes. We don't want 4 blademasters and 3 marksmen. We need variety. So... Here are your choices and what has been taken. Claim them before they're gone!

--In place of slots, I've elected to let people be whatever they want. However, when a CS is posted for approval, if you chose a class that is already being used, we may deny you to keep things balanced in terms of party members. So just be aware of that when creating your characters.

Classes

Freelancer
- Freelancers have no bonuses or penalties to any skills. They can learn to do anything besides class specific skills and abilities, but will never be able to specialize like the other classes.

Cyborg
- Half Man, half Machine. Cyborgs are humanoids that have been modified using Magitech. Cyborgs have access to Hardware equipment items which can modify how they function. In exchange for the abilities given by their Magitech, Cyborgs are vulnerable to EMP and other electrical based attacks, as well as suffering a base penalty to certain activities such as Sneaking and Swimming.

Pilot
- Anybody can hop in a mech or a ship, but only a Pilot knows how to squeeze every bit of power out of their ride. Pilots are the masters of vehicles, and suffer no knowledge penalties no matter what they drive, as well as gaining bonus vehicle abilities.

- A fighter who specializes in swords and bladed weapons, Blademasters usually carry more than one blade. They can learn magic sword skills.

Warrior (Berserk/Normal/Etc)
- Warriors, unlike Blademasters, are terrible at learning any kind of magic. They can learn to use any kind of nonmagical weapon skillfully.

Ki Brawler
- Ki Brawlers are similar to cyborgs in that they have access to equipment the other classes to not. Ki Brawlers can only use a very limited list of weapons, but have access to Ki Markings, tattoos which grant them unique powers. These powers can range anywhere from simple stat changes to magic like abilities.

Limited Weapons: Staff, Short sword, Chain Knives, Throwing Knives

About the Game Itself

Paradise is a game developed by Miles Standish that came out in the year 2045, which is coincidental in that this was the 10 year anniversary of Miles' sister, Lisa Standish's, death. The console itself is a fully integrated body suit that plugs into the machine Standish, creatively, named the Globe. It is a circular frame in which the player sits in and straps themself into. When they say, "On" the system boots up as prompts them with questions. The system, much like Apple's Siri, is a programmable interface that speaks with the player through their life while not in the game and gives them information about what is currently happening in game. When they log into the world, their suit plugs into the interface and they go into a 'dream-like' state. The circular design of the console, allows the player to move as their character would building up muscle and even giving them the nutrition they gain in game. The system keeps them alive, giving them everything they would need to be a healthy individual.

Beginner's Guide

Skills, Abilities, Stats and Techniques: Know the Difference

Skills: A skill is a passive bonus certain characters get to actions they preform. They can be trained either by taking certain classes at the academy, using them often, or the use of certain items and equipment.

Abilities: Abilities are active powers your characters gain, and are decided by the game. Abilities cannot be altered, and are learned by taking certain classes at the academy, leveling up, advancing certain skills or equipping rare armor and weapons.

Stats: Stats are your character's base ability. They are separated into several types, and can be improved by leveling up, using certain items or equipment, or taking the "Practical" classes at the academy. Stats are as follows:
STR: Strength. Determines how physically strong your character is. STR is used in Melee combat, interacting with certain environment items, and using certain equipment.
FOC: Focus. Used in casting spells and building items. A certain amount of FOC is required to use higher level firearms, and the FOC skill effects how accurate your shots are.
AGI: Agility. Determines how fast and agile your character is. Used for moving around the environment and in using certain items and equipment.

Techniques: Techniques are combinations of Abilities and moves the player uses, and are not determined by the System. By using complimentary abilities together, a player can turn seemingly weak powers into a strategic advantage.

Chapter Two: Magic and You

Magic in Paradise can be used two ways. You can either cast spells using the Base System or the Interpretation System.

Base System: The Base System uses the game's pre-programed spells. Once you have learned a spell, all you have to do is think the name of the spell three times in your head to activate it.

Interpretation System: The Interpretation System is more complicated. Once you have a magic skill, you can activate the system by thinking Interprate three times, as if you were casting a spell. After that, whatever you imagine for the next five seconds will be translated into a spell. This system uses far more mana than the Base System, and can be difficult to control, but isn't bound by the limitations of the Premade spells. Once you achieve a similar effect five times with this system, you have the option of recording it as a personal spell, and it will then have an appropriate Mana value applied and can be named.

CS

Real Name: Callum M. Essert
Username: Erevan
Title: The Nomadic Duelist
Age: 16 real, 19 In-game
Gender: Male real, Male in-game
Race: Human
Class: Blademaster
Level: 4
Stat Build:
STR: 5
FOC: 3
AGI: 4
Skills:
Dual-Wielding
Swords (Rapier)
Acrobatics
Equipment:
Regal Rapier (level 4) x2: "Swift, Sharp, precise. The weapon of choice for many duelists."
Rogue's Garb (Level 3) Full body armor: "Simple, Cheap, Crude, Stylish. There may be more advanced options, but for some, the best defense is a nice piece of leather."
Duelist's Gloves (vanity): "The true duelist knows that the three most important things are speed, precision, and style. In no praticular order."
Blademaster's Cape (Vanity): "Your goal, look better than the Xenomasters. Just don't look like you're trying."

Personality: Both Callum and his character share one defining trait, a love of fun. Callum seeks adventure, never staying in one spot for too long. He does however, enjoy travelling with a party. He gets lonely easily and will often make conversation with party-members, whether they want to or not. Callum is a genuinely nice person who wants everyone around him to have as much fun as he's having. While his fun-loving nature makes hm a likeable person, it can also be hard for Cal to take things seriously and stop joking around.

Background: Callum, usually reffered to as "Cal", was born into a fairly boring middle-class household. He was born second of three children and found himself constantly bored with reality. He was fascinated by grand stories of adventure and danger, devouring books, movies, and TV shows. He dreamed of becoming a hero, like those of his stories, when he grew older. Unfortunatley for him, two things made this impossible. 1) Due to an accident when he was young, he walked with a severe limp, and 2) There are no dragons to slay or villages to protect in real life. Paradise solved both of those problems and gave him a chance to not only live out his fantasies, but also to befriend people who thought the same way as him.
