Yu-gi-oh! Scattered Memories

I'll one turn an NPC first duel but after that, I think I'm down to duel Mister Moros "@Eklispe" over there, all smug with his KOSS. Hope you have a Phase Shift, since I have some new Spellswords to unleash.

Am I that predictable?

Midnight Blue: A Midnighters Roleplay

I'm cool if you guys start midnight without me for now. I'll either jump in during the Blue Time or the next day.

Midnight Blue: A Midnighters Roleplay

Name: Echo Greene

Age: 26

Height: 5’ 2”

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Hider

Occupation: Track Coach at the local High School

Personal Interests: Track, Hiking, Making sick weapons

Fears: Heights, tripping, bridges

Power: Wayfinder (Wayfinders can see the fastest way to get to where they are going and have the ability to run at high speeds during the secret hour, although this power may not be extended to another Midnighter Like acrobats, they eat alot during daylight hours and like all midnighters, their eyes turn indigo when they look at the Midnight Moon..)

Misc. Info: Moved to Brisbane about a year ago after graduating college. When she discovered there was an opening at the local High School she jumped on it, already having developed a love of running. She loves nature but refuses to go into the woods from Eleven to midnight unless it is during the blue time.

Sample:

Echo felt the adrenaline rush through her as she ran down the streets, the blue glow surrounding everything as it always did at midnight. Her black hair flowed behind her, making her head look like a comet with a blackish blue tail.. Were the cars able to race next to her she would be side by side with them, able to keep up until the dreaded time came when the Blue Moon would set and she would be living life in 5 Mph again. She sometimes wished that the players on her track team could feel the rush of 25 Mph, or even the other Midnighters. She had tried once, to give one her speed. It hadn’t gone well, the other Midnighter had ended up with a sprained wrist. Returning her thoughts to her surroundings, she looked at the line of “Focus” which showed the way to the Cafe. Hopefully the others wouldnt be too mad she was late...

Midnighters: The Blue World [Two Spots Open]

Vespera

Rules 'n Stuff: Antisociality

Name: Vespera "Vess" Crest

Age: 16

Height: 5' 4"

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Hider

Occupation: 11^th Grade, Works at a Music Shop down the road from the school.

Interests: Music, Black, Being Alone

Fears: Large crowds, Physical Contact, The end of Midnight, Spiders, direct sunlight

Skill: Mindcaster

Misc. Info: Whenever she can she has her ear buds stuffed into her ears to help keep her mind off of the waves of thoughts that threaten to wipe her sanity. She refuses to touch another living being and never removes her black leather gloves that guard her hands from the unwelcome touch of humanity.

Sample:
Vess groaned at the sound of her alarm clock, displeased with the loud beeping that had awoken her. She lifted it to her face to be sure that it hadn't been running through the secret hour, which it obviously hadn't. Once she had sat up and rubbed her eyes she began to taste the usual bitter-sweet of her mother also awaking to an alarm clock 2 doors down. Rising from the bed, Vess slowly walked over to her rickety closet door and groped around for all the required garments before covering her bare body with the jumbled pile. On her way out she yawned and twisted the handle two times but to no avail. It was only after she had managed to drop a black sock in confusion that she realized she had locked the door the night before. Turning the locking mechanism then the handle, she continued her morning quest, turning into the first door after hers which was the bathroom. She dropped the pile of clothing on the counter that surrounded her sink, walking into the shower and turning the knob to the hottest setting.

Once she was properly cleaned, relieved, and dressed, she walked into the kitchen and fumbled with some bread and Honey Ham for some minutes before dropping it into the sandwich bag with an unenthusiastic face. No way in hell she was going to eat Klintin High lunch, even the minds of the lunch ladies suggested that they were skeptical of it. The familiar taste of Baking Chocolate filled her mouth as her mother approached. "What's wrong with school lunch? You even get it for free, why not take it?" Her mom would question this every morning even though Vess never answered. Instead Vess pulled out her phone and attached her ear buds, pushing them into her ears. Seconds later she was sitting in her car, turning the key to start up the sputtering engine of the old Jeep. Turning the corner of the driveway she rapidly hit the volume key on her phone, bracing for the oncoming onslaught.

Story

13 years ago, in Bixby Oklahoma, a group of teens saved their town from utter demolition on Halloween using the secrets of a Secret Hour between 12:00 and 12:01 that only they could experience. In this time they all had unique powers that helped them combat the monsters in the night. Once the Flame Bringer ended the darkling's attack on Bixby, this hour - and it's contents - spread to other places that had co-ordinates that were intersections of multiples of 12. The town of Klintin just happens to be sitting on those co-ordinates.

Known Types of Darklings

Slithers
Slithers are the vermin of midnight. They are often found in larger hoards serving a higher ranking Darkling. They look like small black snakes and can transform into small black cats. Sometimes have wings, and the ones with wings cant become their cat form.

Panther-Like
Panther-Like Darklings are just that, larger versions of the Slither's cat transformation. They can command Slithers. The majority of them have wings that retract into the body upon landing.

Crawler
Crawlers are spider like in shape when not in transit, but when they fly they turn into a black glob with wings. They command Slithers just like Panther-Like Darklings. All of them have flight capabilities. When they die by puncture or slicing wound, they disperse huge amounts of tiny Crawlers.

Halfling
Halflings are Darklings made from a Seer at midnight in a specific place without the Seer's consent. They are human like in shape and the Seer's face is visible in the chest of the Darkling. They can read lore symbols and have all the capabilities of a Darkling. If it is in the open when the sun rises the Seer will be freed. They command all lower ranking Darklings, which will defend it with their lives. All Halflings can fly. They sometimes contact Humans to attempt to kill Midnighters.

Old One (Or Ethereal Horror to some Midnighters and Darkling-Associated Humans)
Old Ones are Darklings that are older than the Blue Time itself, they have no likeness outside the Secret Hour. They look like a tentacle covered gelatinous glob, around the height of 3 humans one atop the other. They are almost immune to Tridecalogisims and Tridecagrams. They can touch you with a single tentacle and cause you to have a nightmare. They feed off the nightmares of humans. They always hover a few feet above the ground and barely ever leave their homes. They are the highest ranking of Darkling.

Skills

Acrobats in the Secret Hour are not held down by gravity the same as during the rest of the day. Seemingly always floating, and able to jump or "fly" fair distances. Like all Midnighters their eyes are photosensitive in the Daylight and reflect back indigo in the secret hour. They also must eat almost constantly and while in the Secret Hour can share their ability with others through skin to skin contact.

Seers are the Lore keepers. While blind as bats in the Daylight, they know where Darklings or Slithers have been since they leave a sharp, clear "focused" slime like trail or print. They are also photosensitive and like all other Midnighters their eyes flash indigo. They can read and write in the ancient symbols used by Midnighters for thousands of years. Seers can also pick out Midnighters during the Daylight hours claiming their faces being fuzzy with their glasses on and clear when off.

Polymaths are literal math geniuses. Often with a photographic memory towards numbers (especially 13 and it's multiples) patterns. They often create they best weapons against Darklings. Like all Midnighters they are photosensitive and flash indigo in the Secret Hour. Their power never shuts off, often dreaming in numbers or images.

Flame Bringers are Darklings worst nightmares. They have the ability to bring things like fire and modern day technology into the Secret Hour. While they can kick some serious Darkling ass, they are just like a regular Daylighter and have no adverse affects from being a Midnighter other than the fact that all Darklings want to kill them. These are semi-off-limits due to God Modding and plot reasons, if you would like to play as a Flame Bringer please PM me.

Metallurges are people who have the ability to find precious stones, metals, minerals, oil, water and probably natural gas in the earth. Like the other Midnighters they are photosensitive and their eyes flash indigo in the Secret Hour.

Mindcasters are basically mindreaders. Manipulators and Darkling Radars. They can force (ahem I mean) "suggest" a person to do something miles away. Wipe someones memory and when in full control of their skill can pass information on through a touch. They can sense who is and who isn't a Midnighter and have been known to recruit Midnighters from all across the country. They are often darker in nature, feeling most a home in the Secret hour and a fairly rare occurrence not as rare as a Flame Bringer but close. They are most like the Darklings than any other Midnighter. Very photosensitive and their eyes flash indigo.

~~RULES~~

~ All characters must be over the age of 14 and no older than 19 (High School age).

As toward the Geography of the town, I am open to suggestion if you know any real place we could put it in, but otherwise, it is a fully fictional place in the US somewhere in the north-east. It sits in a valley with tall Granite mountains on all sides and a river to the south that cuts through the mountains.
