I thought they needed Seconds strings to time travel.

@Shadow Dragon

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

that might be for time travel in all dimensions at once as I doubt a Time Lord or some such from the Doctor Who universe/dimension needs Seconds strings to use the Time Vortex.

Edit: To quote someone who knows...

@ZAVAZggg

We had this huge discussion trying to hammer out the new time travel rules so that people couldn't keep going back Existence-wide after a certain event a while back. I don't remember much of it though but we just had a convo about the individual universe time-travel the other day so this is good timing.

Sorry about his atatude.

Alright, I'll go find some staff and ask for some containers while ordering the extra crab dip and lobster to go.

It's fine. Good luck.

I can always talk to the damn thing on my own later.

Salvador: *Brings my hand to my forehead as I sigh.* I've got no option but to talk then, since I've already tried to fight the damn thing. It's very good at dodging.

@Stabby

Good luck.

Actually somewhat original ideas

So the tags are a bit of a mess because this is basically a suggestion of two ideas for people to potentially take and evolve into something good. I don't have any interest in RPing either of them myself (I'm stretched thin on RPs as it is) and I suck as a GM, but I'd be interested to see what people more inventive than me could do with the ideas. So hopefully one or both will catch your interest and they'll get made into something good.

Idea 1

In the year 2023, an event called the "Deep Night" occurred, in which every animal on earth fell asleep simultaneously for 48 hours. Due to modern conveniences such as vehicles, this caused a lot of damage to the more heavily populated parts of the world as drivers fell asleep in their cars and planes. During these 48 hours, another event known as "Hades' Touch" occurred, in which all electronic devices on the planet went offline for 13 hours. The death toll from this was astounding; medical life support alone caused much of it, while many medicines and foods that required refrigeration spoiled in this time leaving further turmoil for humans when they awoke.

However, the truly odd result of the Deep Night was that upon awakening, many humans found that they had metamorphosed into what became known as "Hybeasts," short for "Hybrid Beasts" or otherwise known as "Chimeras." These Chimeras were humans that had gained traits of other species, the most popularly well known example in fiction being the cat-person, in real life. While unknown, the truth of the matter is that there is one Chimera for every species of mammal, lizard, and reptile, as well as many types of insects and fish. These Chimera gained two notable changes aside from their appearance; they gained the base parameters of their animal counterpart, on top of the base parameters they had as a human, and they gained a mindset similar to their counterpart.

The combination of these events have left the world in turmoil, with most humans discriminating heavily against the Hybeasts. Not only does the average human fear and/or loathe Chimeras, the governments of the world wish to capture and research them, often against their will, and likely for the rest of their lives. This has led to many governments splitting up and military infighting as the members who remained human fought those who became Chimeras.

The Deep Night was caused by...?

Things to note:
(For example, a hawk Chimera can see as well as a human with perfect vision combined with a hawk with perfect vision, not just as well as a hawk, it's cumulative.)
(For example, feline chimeras have feline instincts and their personality leans towards that of a feline, though is not overtaken by the feline mindset, they're still mostly human.)

CS

Name:
(First and Last)

Age:
(Self explanatory)

Appearance:
(Either a picture, short paragraph describing them, or both. Does not necessarily need to have the animal traits in the picture, it's a general idea.)

Animal counterpart:
(Both the animal they're a hybrid of and how those traits manifest visibly. ie if their ears change, or they get a tail or feathers, etc.)

Bio:
(A description of their personality and traits.)

History:
(A short look into their life before the Deep Night.)

Hybrid traits:
(Non-visible traits gained from their animal counterpart. These are cumulative, so for example a Hawk Hybeast would have the vision of a human combined with the vision of a hawk on top of that, not just one or the other.)

Relationships:
(Optional. Other people who the character knows, either other players' or NPCs.)

Idea 2

Long ago in another world there lived a creature with unimaginable power. It took the shape of a human with hair made of serpents, each of these countless snakes having unique eyes that granted them and their host powerful abilities. Now the creature is dying, and on its deathbed it chose to bring to its world many humans, granting each the power of a snake in the form of their eyes. These humans with eye powers are known as "Gorgons," and each is locked in a power struggle against each other for the full power of the original, the power of "endless sight." Each Gorgon can gain the power of another by consuming their eyes, and once per 24 hours a Gorgon may switch to another of their eye powers, but only once and only to one of the other eyes they possess per change. (Switch from eyes 1 to eyes 3, then must wait 24 hours to switch back or to eyes 2, for example.)
Most of these powers coincide with the personality of their bearer. These powers come in several types: Self-affecting, Other-affecting, Illusory, and Counteracting. Self-affecting eyes can range from granting superhuman strength to granting supernatural powers. Other-affecting can do anything from firing a beam of energy to forcing something to remain still in space. Illusory eyes give a form of control over illusions that affect other living things, or in some cases that affect the user. Finally, Counteracting eyes prevent the use or effect of another type of eye.

The Game is moderated by the Basilisk, a terrifying creature with eyes that can turn you to stone. The Game takes place in a world where humans have destroyed much of their own civilization and sent themselves back to the Bronze Age, if not the Stone Age.

Famous Examples of Eye Powers: Geass, Sharingan, Byakugan, Rinnegan, The Mekakushi Dan's eyes, etc.

Banned Eye Powers: Anything that can do more than one thing, Lelouch's Geass, King Charles' Geass, Mangekyo Sharingan, Clearing Eyes, Meeting Eyes, etc.

CS

Eye Appearance:
(Either a picture or a short description of what the eyes look like when active. Must be notably different than their normal appearance.)

Bio:
(A description of their personality and traits.)

Hope these gather some interest~

Digimon Hackers: Jormungundr

Shion sighed. Apparently she'd need to actually explain her plan, since her teammates seemed incapable of noticing where she was headed. "You've got three choices. You can follow the vent, you can go blend in like I suggested, or we can set you up as a member of this place and have a fight. I didn't want to risk being overheard but somebody doesn't watch enough movies to have figured out why I was provoking you. Whatever you do, hurry up."

With that, Shion went back to sitting cross-legged on the floor.

@Stabby

Nope. Unless you think it'd work better to fight it, that's your best option.

Digital Monster: Ascent of Tartarus (A Digimon Story Inspired RP)

I'm always interested in digimon rps, lol. I'm afraid I'll end up getting disqualified due to my difficulty writing CSs though, but I'll give it a shot anyway. I'm assuming that Elysium is just the American/European version of EDEN, or is it a replacement? Does this take the canon timelines or is it its own separate entity?

RP Level Preferred: As close to Casual as possible, simply because writing fluff to fill out a size requirement is difficult for me. I tend to make concise and to the point posts rather than be grandiose.
Character Age Preferred: Well, based on the multitude of digimon series protagonist ages, I'd say somewhere between 14-24, to give a decent range.
Location Preference: Doesn't matter to me, since I know little of either option even though I live in one, lol. America, I suppose, though either way if it's supposed to be in the real "real world" rather than a constructed one the politics will be interesting.
Digimon Familiarity: I'd guess I'm in the top 10% of digimon fans when it comes to how much they know about digimon. Though I mean that only in the general sense; if it came down to specifically anime knowledge, or knowledge about Xros/Fusion, I'd be much lower. Also, just to put it in terms of the games you mentioned, I've beaten both CS and HM on Vita and have the complete edition which I'm in the process of 100%ing.

Anyway, hope this takes off, even if I don't end up being a part of it when it does.

Salvador: How is that going to help?

@Stabby

Conversing with one's zanpakuto is the best way to learn about it and how to draw more power from it.
