Something simpler. (Very simple) Details soon.

December 25, 2560

This is my diary. I’ve never written one before, but I feel called to write one. I’ll probably die – of course I’ll die – but maybe it will be passed on so that others may read it (for whatever purpose they would have to read it). Anyway.

The world is a dying crisp, a burning raw flesh barely trembling. The Angels, or so they call themselves, have recruited us, if you are a human, in fighting the so-named Vampires. With the Earth’s western hemisphere already corrupted by battle and power, the majority of our remaining population has fled to the other half. Everyone can carry a weapon.

I’ve often thought about why we’re fighting. It seems like a lost cause.

I will write later.

That sounds good. I can see how that will be more action orientated, maybe more posts will come out of that. Good idea.

Reminds me of Trinity Blood...:|

Anyway, sounds better. You just need to come up with a name for the vampires (or what-ever the hell they are).

Vampires? I don't like vampires. Meh, I guess I'll enjoy killing them, then. I'll still be playing the incompetant screw-up that barely knows how to fight, though.

I'm glad the response is good. :D It will be a choose-side-roleplay: the 'Vampires' or the Angels. To keep things simple, there will be no 'wandering' un-aligned player.

I will start it up this weekend as soon as my yucky exams are done.

If you are going to do angels, should the other side not be demons instead of vampires?

IN: I will explain when the roleplay begins.

Kit: As soon as the roleplay begins, I will post up details (I'll keep it simple this time; I promise!) and you can see if your character will apply.

Ooh, this sounds better. (Better as in easier to write and post faster.)

No unaligned players?
;p

Can't I have an entirely morally ambiguous character who likes to play both sides?
It's so much more fun that way~

Anyhoo. I like this idea.
I tried to read over your other RP guidelines, but I have the attention span of a gnat, so that didn't work out too well.

Hey I just rememberd. Blue Oni never got a chance. I bet he went through so much trouble making a profile and he never even got the chance to post it.:P

I've scrapped the previous idea. Here's a new one:

Forward:

The German philosopher George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel offered this thought:
The thesis is an intellectual proposition.
The antithesis is simply the negation of the thesis.
The synthesis solves the conflict between the thesis and antithesis by reconciling their common truths, and forming a new proposition. Conflict:
It is WPPU !9#. The World has dissolved into a myriad of citadel cities: medieval-like castle-towns governed by a powerful mayor. Although each of these areas is inherently the same, the insatiable desire for power prevents these cities from recognizing a more efficient level of existence. In fact, more powerful citadels are subjugating weaker ones, increasing their areas of influence. Specially trained soldiers, titled Sables, have become a primary method of taking control: assassinating rival mayors in order to ‘cut off the head of the snake’.

Now, in Western Exverathane, Cole Black – the ruler of Alpha and Delta – has initiated a mission to conquering adjacent citadel cities in an attempt to unify the continent. His goal is to destructively create a new era, one of community and development. Despite that, Beta – governed by Edith Asher – in conjunction with Gamma – ruled by Aiko Akemi – are taking countermeasures to nullify this attempt. Sables have already been released into enemy ground, seeking out their target.

Who will overcome?

City descriptions:
Alpha (Cole Black): a modern skyscraper city characterized by blue windowed buildings and a simply organized infrastructure. Cleanliness and rules are an apparent characteristic.
Delta (Arash Alcaeus, Black’s First Subordinate): a desert oasis centered on an extensive circular lake. The brown sandy buildings are crowded and busy; loud bazaars are often rife with violence in the night. The contrast between the wealthy and poor is clearly distinguished.
Beta (Edith Asher): a brown low-saturated castle-town. Ornately gothic parapets are widely spaced, and the quiet streets are often empty of vehicles. There is little emotion, but the citizens are diligent – perhaps even brainless.
Gamma (Aiko Akemi): a red heaven spun on shimmering silk. The center is portrayed by close fitting pagodas while the wide edge is illustrated by open rice-lands. Although there is a line between the rich and the working, technology here is a powerful emphasis – perhaps a weapon. As is opium.

Directions:
Choose a Citadel City: Alpha, Delta, Beta, or Gamma. Each of these is run by their respective governors: Cole Black, Edith Asher, and Aiko Akemi. Create a Character.

I need a MAP!

Also, can you specify the most advanced weapons. Are there guns or is just old fashioned blade on blade in this world?

Yurian

K! Map coming up!

About the weapons, give me several hours and I'll come up with more details lol.

Tada! I will get a new sub-forum up for the roleplay and move the previous one to Archives.

Okay. I have opened up the Discussion and Character Profile threads in the new sub-forum.

Halfmetal: the weapons can be anything currently existing/a little futuristic. That includes guns, swords, etc. but not hand-held nuclear grenades lol.

Do users act individually? or within a team or a "party"?

One really interesting method I learnd from another RPG place is that users gather into little groups of four or five to act as a team, rather than whats seen commonplace where users just post after post after post. Its also cool cuz it sorta assimilates the "FF" battle method. But its just an idea, or a question sort of. :aldo:
