Neon Genesis Evangelion: Compiled World [Co-GM Wanted!]

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Compiled World

I. Intro

Fifteen years after a catastrophe known as 'Second Impact', Earth is being attacked by Alien beings called 'Angels' which seek to raze the fortress city of Tokyo-3 for their own sinister purposes. These beings, similar to the Kaiju in movies, are immune to nearly all forms of conventional weaponry, and can only be opposed by strange mechs called ‘Evangelions’, which in turn are piloted by children, whose 'strength of heart' can cause the machines they run to emit the same energy that the Angels use to render missiles, artillery, and even nuclear blasts ineffective.

NERV, the organization which maintains and uses the Evangelions, is in fact a subordinate group for SEELE, a secret organization that secretly controls world politics to serve their secret agenda: The Human Instrumentality Project, which aims to merge all human souls into one entity in 'Third Impact'. Gendo Ikari, NERV's leader, had plans to bend the Human Instrumentality Project to his own agenda: To reunite with his dead wife, Yui Ikari, during the merging of all human souls. To do this, he made sure that his son, Shinji Ikari, would be the pilot of the most important Evangelion, Unit-01, and unwittingly bring about 'Third Impact'.

It happened; Shinji Ikari, while trying to save a fellow pilot, Rei Ayanami, triggered an incomplete Third Impact which devestated the planet. Fourteen years later, he was woken up and tricked into creating a Fourth Impact. Then he actually found his courage, grew up, and taking responsibility for his actions, defeated his father Gendo and risked all to restore the world by making it so that Angels and Evangelions did not exist. This was all in your History textbooks.

You live in the world Shinji finally succeeded in saving: The world of the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. It is a peaceful world (most of the population being subjected to Instrumentality and then having their individuality restored more than a decade later will do that). Some people resent Shinji Ikari for bringing down disaster on them in the first place, but even more revere him for actually growing a spine and reversing the damage and then some. You can even talk to him and his wife, Mari Illustrious Makanami, and his exes, Asuka Langley Sorhyu and Kaworu Nagisa (and his adoptive sister, Rei Ayanami), from time to time; you live in the same town.

But SEELE's lingering obsession and frustrated desires cannot be defied so easily...

------

You were camping out with Ken Illustrious Ikari, son of Shinji and Mari, when it happened.

The sky turned red again, the campsite was engulfed in a pillar of light, and instead of the pristine Hakone countryside, you are now on a hill overlooking Tokyo-3, a city you only knew from textbooks as the original Tokyo was restored when Shinji Ikari fixed everything. You see Sachiel, an Angel who was Shinji's first kill, advancing towards the city, mundane ordnance ineffective against it as seen in the history videos you were forced to watch at school. You have a few adult supervisors; among them is Adult Shinji himself, who is flashing back to the past he had thought resolved. One wrong move and you're dead, either by the hands of the Angels or by humans who might see you as enemy spies.

What do you do? What do you and the other children do?

II. Lore and System-less play

Consult the EvaGeeks WIki for further details, but long and short of it is that your OCs are from after Rebuild of Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 (4.0), the final movie in the franchise as a whole. You are mainly OCs, kids aged 14 - 16, and the only adults are various Canon Characters who are with you camping out (you can play them with special permission). You do not start out with an Evangelion or any sort of Mech and have to rely on your knowledge of the world's future in order to get by... And said knowledge might be imperfect due to Alternate Universe shenanigans.

Do not let Gendo or SEELE or the JSSDF (Japanese Special Self-Defense Forces) catch you.

III. Rules

1.) No Godmoding or Powergaming, aka no controlling other players' actions, no defeating your enemy in one shot, and no shrugging of all hits without an AT-Field.
2.) Any consenting relationship between people of the same age group is allowed, whether it's Homosexual or Heterosexual. If you cannot stand such things, don't post here in the first place.
3.) Be polite to others.
4.) You do not start out with Evangelions.
5.) If you are permitted to play Kaworu, he has lost his Angel powers and cannot get them back. Disregarding this will lose you your permission.
6.) There are no stats or rolling; we go by pure narrative storytelling. This is not a license to cheat and win everything by yourself; see Rule #1.
7.) Rule #6 might change if enough players want it and it's really necessary.

Name: Ken Illustrious Ikari

Appearance:


Age: 14

Bio: Born two years after Gendo Ikari's 'Additional Impact' was foiled, Ken was lavished with the attention and care that his father didn't have in his youth, though his mother was careful not to allow him to be spoiled. Precocious, intelligent, and also with a natural grasp of how to make friends with other kids, and impress adults with his knowledge, Ken was fascinated by history, including how his father had saved Humanity from an apocalypse through the sheer act of owning up to his mistakes and growing up; this also taught him to be honest with himself despite every temptation not to be, despite every temptation to avoid blame for any fault he committed.

His life was normal, albeit with frequent trips to the Hakone countryside which surrounded his home village. He and his father's ex-boyfriend, Kaworu Nagisa, were friends with a shared interest in classical music, while Asuka Langley Shinkinami, his father's ex-girlfriend, was his self-defense teacher. After all, there were people who resented his father instead of respecting him, and they might try and target his son - He was sure there were attempts but he wasn't allowed to know about those.

One day, he and several other children and adults went camping out in the summer night; a few days passed without incident. Then, one day, as they were waking up for the sunrise, the sky turned red and he saw fear in his father's eyes.

A second later, the camp was engulfed in a flash of light, and it was early morning, on the same hill, but something felt different, as though the air smelt of blood. Then, the sound of artillery can be heard close to the coast - And Ken saw his first Angel (Kaworu doesn't count as he lost his powers!).

Sachiel was advancing towards a city he knew instinctively was Tokyo-3, and the JSSDF were firing everything they had at him. His life had changed forever.

Mundane Skills: Ken is good at history, English Literature, English in general, and Japanese Calligraphy, and can ride a motorcycle and shoot airsoft guns. His mother also taught him how an Anti-L Barrier/Anti-L System worked and even taught him how to recreate the blueprints from memory. He is also a fan of mundane, non-organic Mechs.

Personality: Ken is a 'Papa's Boy' who adores his father, though not to any excessive level. He tries to look calm, collected, and cool all the time, consciously portraying himself as a determined, brave and smart kid which his father's past self was not (his perspective only). This attitude can sometimes cross the line to arrogance, especially as he believes he can 'save' the Parallel version of his father in this universe and bring a happy ending to it as well.

He does not realize that he was merely lucky; that if his upbringing had been different, he'd be falling to despair immediately and that there is still time for him to plummet off the metaphorical cliff...

Mechwarrior: Disposable Heroes

Raven Rivers

Raven looked at Hugh and said, "You were a member of the Free People's Army? If so, tell us of their capabilities - What you know of them at any rate. As it is, what you've said about them is worrying; right now, most of us are thinking of a future alliance with the Cappellan Governor's remnant administration but I have a marked preference for the actual people of the planet... A preference which might end depending on what you tell us about them."

His eyes glinted as he said, "My wife and my son are in Tie Shan Prison, probably being tortured and abused in horrific ways no civilian should suffer through right now. We know full well that they might even be killed if the current regime wants to make an example of them. If the Free People's Army does not want to help us save them, or is capable of being of help doing so, then consider us enemies."

Then Raven shifted tack and followed up with, "But if your former comrades have a smidgen of the audacity, gumption, and actual skill you showed us, then not only do you have a chance at life, but your people, the people of Espia, might find themselves worthy of a new partner in their goals; if the Colonel can be convinced of their bravery and intelligence." His current frown shifted into a wry half-smile as he continued, "So tell me, what do you know of the movement beyond your cell and where in the city of Yuhzny Portveyn do your fellow rebels meet? Can your 'Free People's Army' us the respite they've been given to take the entire city in a week or otherwise prove themselves the strongest potential partner? And finally, do you know anything about Tie Shan Prison beyond its reputation?"

His eyes glinted again as he continued, "My wife will try to protect my son, but the latter is sixteen and fancies himself precocious. He'll probably do something foolish like mouth off to the guards or plan an escape on his own and end up getting tortured and shot in the back of the head for his trouble. The enemy was willing to murder our children while storming our compound to intimidate the rest into surrender. They have no compassion for our civilian contingent and yet still call themselves 'the good guys'. They treat us like the villains of the piece when they keep women and children in a dungeon to be used as their toys or even worse and break them in abominable ways that would disgust most decent folk."

A touch of desperation was entering Raven Rivers' voice, "And it's not just my wife and son. They also have the Colonel's... 'best friend' and our other other loved ones, now sharing some space with various dissidents from your own folk. Every little you can tell us about our potential allies or enemies helps in getting them back - All of them back. You get me?"

The Ghosts of Napoleon

<Snipped quote by Letter Bee>

If you can give a good reason for it to be either or, so it shall be. All the German states aren't going to be on the map because fuck that

@Dinh AaronMk

Hmm, I am also considering Prussia and Hannover.

The Ghosts of Napoleon

@Letter Bee

Technically, Bavaria is taken

@Dinh AaronMk

Technically, yes. Saxony was folded into Prussia in this timeline as well, right?

The Ghosts of Napoleon

<Snipped quote by Letter Bee>

Not even in the scope of the RP.

@Yam I Am
You're good to switch to the Decemberists chief

@Dinh AaronMk

Understood.

<Snipped quote by Letter Bee>

Just play the game by the rules, buddy. Make it make sense. Does your idea make sense? Does it play the game? No? Easy.

@TheEvanCat

Point taken. I'll either take Egypt after all or be the Papacy or maybe Bavaria.

Edit: It depends on what narrative I want to tell.

The Ghosts of Napoleon

<Snipped quote by Letter Bee>

It would have basically already lost pretty much everything in South America

@Dinh AaronMk

Early loss of the Philippines is in the realm of possibility, yes?

The Ghosts of Napoleon

Spain is losing its Colonial Empire to Revolution, correct?
