Kotori seemed to often have pause between her words, more or less not because of her ability to speak was at question, but because she was quite timid. Rui gave her the time she needed to respond as he stood by. Based on how her body language was it seemed she was reassured to some extent. She spoke up not long after, asking why he was here early. Well, about that... There wasn't much to do at home today so he decided to go out for the day, and since he was already out he felt he should just come here and wait and take a look around before the festival begins.

"I was just out of the house already awhile ago so I figured I may as well just come here right away instead", he responded. As usual for the festival though, he was seeing a lot of girls in yukatas, it was summer after all and so yukatas were in season.

"That being said, we're the only ones here so far", he noted. Even Kazuki and Megumi were late. Well, it was almost time, but you'd think a few more people would already be here too.

That's okay, tell me what difficulties you're having and I can help explain them for you.

The Three Realms War [Act II] [DMC/Bayonetta/Darksiders Crossover]

So a low-down on the missions that will be at play for this Act. There will be two types of main missions, Defense, and Expedition, with a 3rd called Engage, which consists of only a boss fight or series of fights.

There will be more details in the Characters tab in Aquapolis. But for convenience, here is the link.

The Aquapolis City Registry

Welcome to Aquapolis

Aquapolis is a city rich in culture, it trades it's rich fishing industry with the rest of the world, and was built around the Fourth Seal. Their entire culture is about protecting it, and part of it was keeping that fact hidden, doing their celebrations to "protect" a god so to speak, one way they call the seal itself. As a result there are cults dedicated to it's worship as the Seal rather than a god.

Technologically, Aquapolis has the best in hydro technology, as demonstrated by their city. Hidden to the rest of the world though is their magical technology derived from their advanced fort-like underwater shrine that protects the seal, as described when the DHO came to observe it's entrance, it was like a whirlpool into oblivion. Not even they know what the seal itself actually looks like, but offerings are thrown into it during festivities.

AQUAPOLIS MISSIONS

The Races

Hider

Human: The natives of the earth realm, beings capable of the greatest evil, or the greatest good, making them sought after and making the realm of earth a place that both hell and heaven wish to have dominion over. Humans, while lacking the physical strength of a demon or angel, are often ingenious fighters to make up for it, making them excellent hunters.

Demon: Demons are the native race of hell, they come in all shapes and sizes, and come from many myths and legends, but generally a demon is a supernatural being that possesses superior physical capabilities to that of the average human, and often have access to supernatural powers. Most demons come in a very horrific form, but powerful few are able to take forms that look almost completely or completely human.

Angel: An angel is a divine being from heaven, there are two kinds that exist. The Laguna angels, where many of them appear rather inhuman, gaudy yet horrific and terrifying beings of great power. Then there are the Army of Light angels, the traditional kind, humans with wings and divine powers. Similar to demons though, they all possess superior physical capabilities to the average human.

Half-Demon: Half demons are born of a demon and a human parent, though incredibly rare, possess a form that appears human until they tap into their demonic power. They possess the physical capabilities of a demon, while being consistently humanoid in appearance.

Nephilim: Half demon half angels. Such a combination is impossible by normal means, a Nephilim is born by mixing together the dust and remains of both an angel and a demon, allowing them to give birth to a new being, the Nephilim. They possess abilities both divine and unholy, and similar to both demons and angels, possess superior physical capabilities. They are about twice as large as humans, and exhibit brutal natures.

Cyborg: A cyborg is a human having gone under extensive or minor cybernetic enhancements. The enhancements can often vary, but very consistently have they enhanced their physical capabilities. This allows humans who have become cyborgs to stand even with some of the more powerful demons and angels.

The Three Factions

Hider

Hell

Hell

The Demon World, or Inferno, whichever name takes the speaker’s fancy, is the realm of hell, home to demons. Mundus is the primary ruler of this realm, even after being sealed two thousand years ago, his desire to rule over the human realm has not changed, and he leads an army to march upon it. Queen Sheba also has dominion over demons in this world, second only to Mundus. She is much less an ambitious force than Mundus who seeks conquest.

Heaven

Hierarchy of Laguna

One half of the forces of Heaven, once led by Jubileus. The Hierarchy of Laguna are divine-yet-inhuman-looking beings, with skins of gold and marble, and of all different shapes and sizes. They value order, duty, and devotion above all else. While they appear to be of a finer temperament than their counterparts in Inferno, in reality they are single-minded, stern, and even sinister at times to humanity, with certain high-ranking Laguna expressing outright contempt or scorn for humans. Many of their lesser numbers appear to lack much of a will of their own, relying on more powerful and intelligent of their number for orders. A recent crisis has left them without most of their leadership, so who, if anyone, has risen to assume those positions is unknown at this time.

Lumen Sages

An ancient magical order with an affinity towards light and the sun, and who derive their powers from pacts with beings of Paradiso. While at one time the Sages worked alongside their counterparts, the Umbra Witches, to maintain the world’s balance, the Clan Wars saw them presumably wiped out, with the last known Lumen Sage perishing some centuries after the wars’ end. However, recently those who practice the powers of light have begun to reemerge, somehow surviving into the modern day, and have reorganized the Lumen Sages. Who would do so, and for what purpose, remains a mystery.

Army of Light

Led by Uriel, these soldiers make up the other half of the Heavenly forces, alongside the Hierarchy of Laguna. They resemble winged humans in intricate and advanced armor, and, with the loss of many of Laguna’s commanders, are the de facto leaders and strategists over all of Paradiso’s forces. While they are more sympathetic as a whole to humanity's plight than Laguna or Inferno, their primary interest is protecting Heaven, and will sacrifice or turn against human lives should they believe such actions will further their goals.

Humanity

Gilgamesh Incorporated

In recent years, many humans have learned of the existence of Heaven and Hell, and not just experimented, but excelled. They see the world of mystery and magic as an opportunity, not just for fame and fortune, but for the good of humanity. The conglomerate formed by such parties is Gilgamesh Incorporated, named for the hero of legend who sought the power of the gods, and Gilgamesh Seeks to represent humanity in the war between realms and establish it as an authority equal to heaven and hell. Using state-of-the art technology combined with sorcery to augment themselves and their weapons, Gilgamesh wages war against those who threaten humanity with the Reclaimers, their private army, supplied by companies like the arms manufacturer Regalia.

Order of the Sword

Since the events some time ago with the almost complete destruction of the city of Fortuna, the Order of the Sword has gone under extensive changes. The Ascension Ceremony has been completely changed from it’s demonic original process, to more of a knighting ceremony, and the efforts and technology of the Order of the Sword was simply diverted to researching demonic and newly found, divine power, believing them to be a future threat to mankind, as well as the order. Now led by Kyrie, with Nero as her protector and general.

Demon Hunters Organization

In the shadows of the city, demons are not an uncommon occurrence, always finding some way to slip through the cracks into the human world. This is where the demon hunters come in. They work more like a guild than an organization, jobs get posted up, a demon hunter takes one, or is assigned one if they are urgent and special skills are required. Lady has as of late become one of the top ranking officials for this organization.

Umbra Witches

An ancient society of female magic users who harness the powers of the moon and darkness, and who evoke the powers of Inferno in their techniques. Umbra Witches derive their powers from demonic patrons, and once safeguarded the balance of Light and Dark alongside their counterparts, the Lumen Sages. However, several hundred years of war and Witch Hunts led to their near extinction. Recently, one of the last surviving Umbra Witches, Jeanne, has decided to revive the old ways, and share the Umbran cause amongst new sisters. Only time will tell what these new Witches fight for, and if they can reclaim their former glory.

The Charred Council

Charred Council

Predating the existence of heaven and hell, and perhaps the universe, is this ancient authority. Tucked away in a plane of its own existence, the three Councillors stand in a volcanic crucible, and from there seek to maintain peace and balance over all creation. While the Charred Council has little direct power to do anything itself, its wisdom, precognition, and productive temperament has accumulated a vast amount of respect, followers, and agents, including the Four Horsemen. It was the Council that imposed treaties on heaven and hell to keep the peace, but now that the first seal has been broken and the treaties cast aside, the Council is reeling to regain control over the situation. To that end, its messengers seek new champions of balance.

Weapon Upgrade - You can spend points into upgrading your weapon and accessing stronger techniques specific to the weapon. Upgrades from level 1-3.

Technique Upgrade - You can upgrade your existing Techniques into a Level 2 or Level 3 version, which lets you attach more and more powerful properties to them.

Style Upgrade - By upgrading your Style, you gain new aspects of the style, and allow you to use more powerful techniques. For instance level 1 Trickster might grant you faster evasion, but level 2 will grant you agility for wall running and so on, but level 3 gives access to a high-speed teleport. Upgrades from Level 1-S (1, 2, 3, S).

Costs (remember everything starts at level 1)

Weapon Upgrade -
Level 2 (6 points)
Level 3 (9 points)

Technique Upgrade -
Level 2 (2 points)
Level 3 (5 points)

Style Upgrade
Level 2 (9 points)
Level 3 (12 points)

How to gain Points

• Defeating enemies. These must be enemies sent at you by any of the GMs. They can be sent after you involuntarily, or as part of a mission you have chosen to undertake. Depending on number and/or strength of enemies, 1-5 points can be earned.
  Stylish combat. More on judging system later. Basically being stylish in combat will give you free points that level up the Style you use in that battle. Depending on style, 1-3 points can be earned, automatically added to your Style, if your Styles are full, these points can be spent anywhere you like.
• Defeating bosses. There will be two kinds, ones that you will simply encounter, normally the first time you see them they’ll be far too powerful for you to fight and are best avoided, but later they can be hunted down and defeated for a massive bounty of points. Then there are the ones that are thrown at you during your missions, these ones are designed to be a challenge to you, but they can be defeated. You will earn 3-6 points depending on the boss enemy’s strength in comparison to yours.

::Gaining New Styles, Techniques and Weapons::

Techniques can be gained whenever you please, but certain types of techniques will be locked behind your Style level. New Techniques are free, but be sure to run them through a GM first, plus you are not allowed to add new techniques midway through a battle.
New Styles can be obtained for 5 points, but it is recommended that players stick with 1-3, anymore than that, and it gets truly complex.
Gaining new weapons can be free, or cost you something. To gain a weapon for free, you have to earn them, as the weapons you can gain throughout simple progression are existing Devil Arms or other weapons, so you will be limited to those. You can also make new weapons by spending 5 points.

The Three Realms War [Act II] [DMC/Bayonetta/Darksiders Crossover]

A Devil May Cry, Bayonetta and Darksiders crossover RP

Act II

With the advent of the destruction of the Third Seal, both angels and demons have begun to question their actions, though the bloodthirsty demons are happy to rip and tear away at humans and angels alike, those among the angels and the more free-thinking demons have begun to act on their own. A splinter faction of angels led by Kushiel have separated from the Army of Light and the Heirarchy of Laguna, bringing with him others affiliated with Heaven, while Gomory leads a handpicked regiment of demons who have more to think about than their next meal or opponent.

It's been two weeks since the destruction of the Seal, and the DHO have received a transmission from the city of Aquapolis located on Brightwater Isle. It appears they were hounded by a particular demon for the past week, who had managed to slaughter their guardians, and so were seeking additional protection. Knowing that there is a seal here, the DHO had mobilised.

Over the next week, they would be visited by both Gomory and Kushiel, and a truce was formed, that the seal would be protected from this demon. It was a reluctant alliance, but one they all felt was necessary. Be it the mysterious Nephilim who had appeared, or the insane demon Vega, they all had a common enemy.

Prologue of Act I

Hider

Nobody knows who did or how they did it, but the first of the Seven Seals of the apocalypse has been destroyed. Faced with the beginning of the end times, Heaven and Hell have thrown off the treaties of peace and balance imposed upon them by the venerable Charred Council, and as they renew the struggle of ages earth has become our battleground. From the depths of Inferno, the demon king Mundus summons his unholy legions, while Paradiso’s gates have unleashed the fearsome Hierarchy of Lagunas and the Army of Light in reply.

Yet the war they wage is hidden. Invisible to an oblivious humanity, heaven and hell engage in brutal conflict across the globe. The elements of humanity lucid to the Trinity of Realities, however, are not blind to the war gripping their world, and they respond in kind. Seeking to assert the authority of humanity as the equal to heaven and hell, Gilgamesh Incorporated and its army of Reclaimers has entered the fray, and groups like the Demon Hunters Organization and the Order of the Sword mobilize. Newly reformed, the Lumen Sages and Umbra Witches renew their alliances as well, and the veiled world of angels, demons, and humans is plunged into conflict.

And no matter who you are or whose side you’re on, you’re about to get involved as well. In the American metropolis called Barlour, a wealth of colorful characters are about to attract some special attention. Fighting is all but inevitable; the only question is: who are you fighting for?

---

Welcome

Welcome to Act II, is this a strange time to enter? No it isn't. In fact this is the best time to enter rather than in the middle of any other act, as this is a very good chance to make a new character.

You will choose between human, angel, or demon faction, your allegiance is straightforward, and though you all may have misgivings with one another, you are all here to protect the city of Aquapolis on Brightwater Isle from a demonic menace. Be it one reason or another, you feel that the seals should not be broken, despite the desire of Hell to destroy it to invade the human realm, or the desire of Heaven to control, in order to put humanity under their dominion. Gomory the famed recruiter and general of Mundus' army has separated to follow her suspicions regarding the being who calls himself Vega, while Kushiel who has experienced his crazy shrewdness and hatred firsthand, seeks to stamp out this threat at the very least, all while worrying about the mysterious group of Nephilim who too threaten the seals.

For those returning from Act I, I welcome you. Though a spot as a Council Agent will not be available at the start of Act II for players who are joining, there will be a chance to become one through the course of Act II, even as early as the first or second set of missions if you desire it so much.

As a Council Agent from Act I, your job is mediator between the three factions, but you may act on your own faction's behalf besides the Council if you so choose.

Persona - The True Self

Warakuma Central Shrine

Wednesday
Jul 13th, 2015

As Rui wandered around the festival grounds around the shrine, seeing many stores already setting up or just about ready, he circled back around to the meeting site. It was almost time, a little early, but it seemed Kotori was the only one here.

"Oh Kotori, you're quite early. Are you that eager for the festival?", he asked as he walked up to her. The sun was beginning to set upon the town, and the heated air of Japanese summer began to settle. In not too long, the street lights should come on to replace the sunlight, but well before that, the streets were well lit with festival lanterns. There were already a fair amount of people from town coming in and enjoying the festivities.

"Well, anyways, I'd noticed you're in thought quite often since we cleared the village. If it's about the things we saw and heard, don't think about it for at least until the festival is over. We'll find out more and have our questions answered when we delve deeper anyways, so just enjoy yourself", he advised, giving her a reassuring smile.

Fire Emblem: The Eternal War [ENDED]

Sordan

Even in their company, Sordan generally kept his distance, it wasn't really a matter of trust but more one of habit. His senses were keen, and he was used to travelling alone, even as a commander of men of shadows... Or rather especially because he commanded men of shadows, was why he had this habit. In fact it was probably part and parcel why he was reluctant to approach this group and ended up simply tailing them for some time. Perceptive they were, moreso than even some commanders he's been required to kill, but that might be because those commanders were often placed there by their families. A sad tale that does not concern him.

Those Jerod seemed to have his doubts about Mark, he was sure that was simply jaded cynicism and paranoia. The eyes on Mark were sharp, a tactician's as he recognises, but the body language and the way he spoke, not to mention his aura. He was not a man capable of heinous deeds, even if this was an act, it was an incredibly good act that came off as completely natural. Still, he had no reason to be close to any of them anymore than what services he is willing to provide and information he can share.

Not long after reaching town they were greeted by a knight in green. Based on his armor, he was a rider, though not a very high ranking one, but enough to be armored properly and given a horse... Perhaps a man of a noble house? Regardless, as fine as the ladies he has noticed are, it is of little concern to him. Jerod seemed more intent on just leaving this little exchange entirely,

"Very well, I suppose the sooner we have supplies the better", he responded as this would allow the ones less travelled such as the poor girl Rionach to recoup her strength, furthermore he wanted a better look at this situation. Cavaliers of royal houses rarely travelled alone, and one so happy-go-lucky was either posted in this town, or had a more level-headed companion. Was it cause for alarm? Definitely not, but they couldn't afford to get anyone's attention.

"By the way, do you think it's in our budget to get travelling cloaks? Perhaps your Prince could do with some way to hide his hair, silver comes rare, even in Tellius".

Pack your bags for an island vacation because a new thread is going to be made for Act 2. It'll be open for new players once again as they can be part of Kushiel's splinter angel group separated from the main force, or Gomory's handpicked demons she prepared to deal with Vega, or among the human alliance who have moved in with the same objective.

With the unveiling of the mysterious Nephilims appearing in Tabernacle and Undersky, as well as Vega's appearance after assuming Sevrin's body, a threat that threatens all three seems to be significant enough that some feel the need to deal with them first. The Council deems this action worth supporting, and so has sent their agents to be go-betweens between the factions as well as be their sword in the coming conflicts.

The goal is the same, secure the Seals, and remove all threats.

We'll be seeing demons fighting demons, and angels fighting angels, as Kushiel and Gomory's forces defy their masters regarding the fates of the Seals.

Also yes, Brightwater Isle will be the hub for every faction this time, so a lot more chances to interact with one another. I'll prepare some detailed info on the culture of the people living here too, so be sure to make use of that.

Thread is coming soon, this is more or less notification.
