Introduction
Hallo, everybody.
Just for the record, this post isn't at all important to the RP. At all. In fact, you could just skip right over this post, and you wouldn't miss a thing. No, I'm serious. The next post is actually important, but this one isn't. Not at all. So if you don't like me having random a** flashbacks and acting like a Chibi spaz, skip this post. Go to the next one. Don't drop interest before you've begun because you decided to read the introduction, which, as previously stated, is not important. Now.
You're still here? Well, then, pull up a chair, because I plan on making this long.
Now, when I first got the idea, it wasn't RP material. I didn't even think of it as an RP until about three or four days later. In fact, when I first heard it, it was a summary to a book on tape, as quoted from my second cousin June*. And the only reason she gave me the summary was because we were going to the mall to buy one of my other second cousin a birthday present, and she turned on the car and the book on tape started playing. She promptly turned it off and let me know that we weren't going to listen to orphans. She gave me the summary, we laughed, and we started on our way to the mall, never bringing the subject up again. Oh, yeah, and we had sushi when we were there. That's not really important, but I like being reminded of sushi. Mm. Sushi.
When I finally got around to tampering with the idea as an RP, it was three or four days later, and I was in the car with my family. We were driving to my grandparent's house in New Hampshire, from Kingston in Canada. Actually, we were coming back to the mainland in a boat. While it was raining. Yay. I turned to my brother as we were hauling luggage onto the little half-sunken dock, and I told him my idea. He seemed confused, like he usually is when I spaz on him, so everything he did pretty much consisted of him nodding and helping me stick heavy stuff into the back of our minivan. I had kind of figured out that he wouldn't understand, but it was still a bit saddening. Only a little, though. I didn't cry or anything.
By the time we were in New Hampshire, I had almost the entire plot worked out. Unfortunately, my grandparents don't seem to believe in the power of the internet, so all the computers in the house(which was approximately one)had dial-up connection. I'm not allowed to so much as touch Grandad's computer, anyway. He does all his professional writing and stuff on there, and he's probably worried I might screw up his manuscript or something(Oh, did I forget to mention? My Grandad writes books. George Clark. Look him up some time). I can't blame him. And I wasn't about to defy him. He went postal on my dad, and he's a professor in computer science. Seriously. I've got nothing on that.
After a day full of homemade spaghetti, pork, and sandwiches, we were ready to head home. Still formulating a plan, I sat down at the computer when we found ourselves a hotel to stay in(one with free wireless!) and e-mailed my good friend, Cara*. Well, PMed. It seems more relevant when I say e-mailed. I dunno why. Whatever.
Because Cara'd been thinking about making me do a +Anima RP for just about ever, she jumped for the opportunity to make me meld my idea and hers. So we made a lovechild hybrid thing. Yaaay! And, well...this is it. Have fun. See you in a few hours, saying you want your old job back. And no, you can't have it. Stop asking. Slut.

Plot A long time ago, on another planet, one much like this, were creatures called +Anima. They were mainly human, but at a moment's notice, they could turn parts of them into an animal. And it could be any animal. A trout, a crow, a bat, a bear, a cat, an ox, a goat, a pigeon, a rat, a bee, an octopus...anything. The +Anima had a tattoo near their animal sprouting that represented what they were. Gills on the neck, feathers on the shoulders, wings on the back, claws on the arm, or a tentacle on the side. Any sort of tattoo could be anywhere on the body, as long as it was black and simplistic.
The way you became a +Anima was very basic. There were only three rules:
1)The person must be under 14.
2)There has to be an animal nearby that comes to mind.
3)The person must be very close to death.
Following these rules, a +Anima can be anything, do a wide variety of things. However, many +Anima are humiliated because of what they are. They are looked down upon by society, and many hide their abilities. They wait impatiently for when they turn 18, and the +Anima goes away.
But enough about +Anima. Let's speak about the plot, shall we?
The RP takes place in the kingdom of Zeffria. The king is quite a scrooge about +Anima - And everything else - and treats them quite unkindly. Several +Anima work for him at the castle, and he treats them much worse than if they had been normal humans. The workers, +Anima and humans alike, all hate him with a fiery passion, but they dare not let such a thing be said out loud, or he'd have their heads for sure.
But even with the cruelty of the king, there is light, as well. His daughter, the princess, adores +Anima, and is very polite to all the workers. All +Anima, and many of the humans, too, love her. That is why, when she disappeared, it was quite a shock to everyone. The king flew into a panicked rage, demanding the +Anima find her - or else.
What could they do? The +Anima had to leave, grouping together and searching for the princess, even without any information about what had happened to her. They didn't even know if she had gotten lost or gotten kidnapped. But they were determined to find her, no matter what it took. They would find the princess.
They would.

Rules
Before you ask, yes, I did shamelessly steal this set of rules from Gemshine, by Run While You Can. We were talking, and she was like, 'finish!', and I was like, 'fine', but my computer's been having hissy fits on me recently, so I just stole hers and cut out anything that was Gemshine exclusive. So if it looks kind of familiar, and not like the kind of thing I would say at all, you now know why. *Ahem*
Follow The Gaia TOS
We should all know this already, guys. This is a story that lives on Gaia, and as such, all the ground rules they set apply all the way.
Thy Will Be Done
Despite what you'd think, I'm afraid there's only one god here, and that's me. Any godmodding behavior won't be tolerated, especially as this is a non-combative roleplay. Having said that, violence is very much a part of life, and there's nothing wrong with a good fist-fight if tempers get a little high as long as they aren't taken too far and both participants are willing.
Wat iZ R0ng WIv dA WaI i TYpEz??!1
A few basic ground rules... Here's not what I want to see:
- Kris wlkd out da in2 da garden. "Heyy, wazzup?" he sed smilin.
- *Walks out into the garden* "Hey, guys, how's it going?" *smiles*
- Brb, guys, going to get a drink... Kris walked out into the garden. "Hey, how is everybody?" he asked, smiling.
And here's what I would love to see:
((Brb, just going to get a drink...)) Kris walked out into the garden. "Hey, guys! How's it going?" he asked, smiling.
Please don't use 1337 or txt tlk. Actions must be typed out properly, not highlighted, and posts must be written in the past tense. OOC (Out Of Character) speech must be clearly indicated, either by using double parentheses or by other means, and posts shorter than three sentences will be frowned upon. We have a language, do try to use it.
Ooh, Suits You Sir!
Romance is beautiful. Romance is natural. Romance is very much encouraged. Sexual behavior, however, is not. Any physical behavior must be kept PG-15, and if you want to take it further, send your characters to a secluded spot and take it to PMs.
Effing And Blinding
Bad language is necessary, and can be really effective when writing creatively. Nonetheless, there are some words that no-one wants to hear - and you all know very well what I'm talking about. Any offensive or extremely personal words used will be dealt with, and yes, that is a warning.
Now You See Me...
If you're going to be away for more than a week, please pm me with the title, "Castle halt!", and list the characters you play. All roleplayers that are absent will be added to the Absence list (see Lists below), so if a character appears to be a bit quiet, it might be worthwhile checking to see if they're away...
Three Strikes...
As far as rules go, they're pretty standard, but they exist for a reason. Should you break a rule, you'll be sent a pm with a warning and be delegated to the First Strike list (see Lists below). If you don't break another rule like a good little roleplayer, you'll be removed from it after a week. If you do break a rule, you'll move to the Second Strike, and so on. Once you have been removed from all lists, the cycle starts again. Effectively, every time you break a rule, you get three chances.
Be warned: once you reach black, THERE'S NO GOING BACK...

Profiles  Why do we hope to succeed?~!~The obvious~!~Name: Marion N. Pherini
Nickname: Mari-chan
Age: Fifteen. She is thought to be ten or eleven.
Height: 4'3".
Weight: 68 lb. 12 oz.
+Anima: Trumpeter Swan
Tattoo:Swan +Anima ~!~The not-so-obvious~!~Personality: Most of the time, Marion is a very shy, quiet girl, keeping herself out of sight and out of mind, probably because of how obvious her tattoo is. She works as a maid's apprentice, and spends most of her time with brooms and feather dusters. She is not a social butterfly, and knows nothing about her new teammates, besides their names. Despite her shyness, however, when she is needed, she will spring to attention, volunteering herself without a second thought. She'll just fling up a hand, yell a 'leave it to me!' and get running, or sprout her wings, or grab someone and haul them over a wall.

Name: Nana Edwanda Valentina Myrrha Senri
Nickname: Edward, Ed. People who don't know her call her Nana.
Age: Thirteen.
Height: 4 feet, 2 inches.
Weight: 72 lb.
+Anima: Rhesus monkey
Tattoo: A spiral with three lines off the left side, and three lines off the right side. It is placed on her tailbone. ~!~The not-so-obvious~!~Personality: Nana is possibly the craziest thirteen-year-old you will ever meet. This is probably because she is also a drug dealer, and sells illegal mushrooms. The fumes, or something of the like, probably got into her brain, and now she acts as if she's on 'shrooms 24/7. Nana doesn't like to stand still, and is a rather feral kind of person. Rather than walk, she crawls, or somersaults, or hops along in one way or another. Socks and shoes make her unbalanced and unable to get around. Nana is always very happy and eager to help, and doesn't quite realize that some questions aren't asked because they shouldn't be.

Past: When Nana was a little girl, she and her father used to go out on adventures together. However, one day, she got separated from her father, and was left alone in the jungle in the middle of who-knows-where. Being just a little girl, all that Nana could do for a little while was bawl her eyes out. After two straight days of crying, however, Nana was done being sad and was really quite tired and hungry. She got herself up and went out looking for food. She found bananas. She ate them.
After three or four years of living in the jungle eating bananas and becoming more and more feral by the day, Nana realized that she needed to find her father. However, in an attempt to get down from the tree she was in, Nana lost her footing and fell a long way. In front of her flashed a monkey, looking at the falling girl with dismay. If only I had a tail like that monkey, I could grab on to one of these branches with it... And suddenly, her +Anima was born. A tail and slightly pointy ears graced her, and she was able to scramble to safety.
After that, Nana lived by collecting the hallucinogen mushrooms in the forest and selling them on the streets. She didn't live far away from the castle, because that was where the rich people who could afford the 'shrooms lived. Therefore, she heard quickly about the missing princess, and went into hiding until the whole thing blows over. She's working as a member of the +Anima Surgery Implantation Experiments Association. They have yet to find out that she is a +Anima herself.
Crush sad (You can send me a PM when this is ready to be filled out.))
Biggest secret: Nana worries about her father daily. ~!~The other stuff~!~Other: Nana's dwellings consist of a few paper bags, cardboard boxes, and aluminum cans that she has creatively molded into a house that actually shelters her from rain and cold.
Username: xXBisexual FlanXx...Follow him.  There's nothing I can say to you... ~!~The obvious~!~ Name: Phillipa Lilith Monoghan
Nickname: Pippa
Age: Sixteen
Height: 5'3"
Weight: 119 lb. 7 oz.
+Anima: Fruit Bat
Tattoo: (•) ~!~The not-so-obvious~!~ Personality: Pippa is an unusually quiet young girl. Gentle and soft-spoken, she is easily intimidated and likes to stay out of the limelight. She is also slightly dim and quite slow on the uptake, and often lets her mind wander from the situation at hand. If she is asked a direct question, she tends to pause for a certain amount of time and think about her words before she speaks them, which can exasperate some. Being an +anima of a fruit bat, she is much more alert during the night time, and consequently spends her days feeling sleepy and withdrawn.

Dislikes:

Pet peeves:

• Hiccups
• Long words ~!~The secret~!~
Past: Born into a resonably normal family, Pippa grew up around the mountains, in a small valley town. Her younger years were filled with the memories of many long walks through the wilderness. She became an +anima when she and her father were sheltering in a cave during a storm during one of these walks, and a flash of lightning caused the roof to cave in. Pippa was thirteen at the time, and survived; her father didn't.
Crush: N/A
Biggest secret: Pippa's slow demeanour is a result of a head injury from a falling rock. Before her accident, she was a musical prodigy, and a gifted violinist. ~!~The other stuff~!~ Other: As an +anima, Pippa has the ability to sprout tiny, leathery wings and fly, albiet in a rather jerky way. She has abnormally sensitive hearing, and particularly enjoys the sound of a violin; she describes it as like "hearing a sunrise". Pippa can also lengthen her teeth and flex tiny claws from the tips of her fingers and toes to defend herself when threatened. Oddly, she can also use her toe-claws to suspend herself quite sucessfully, and prefers to sleep dangling upside down when she can, her arms wrapped tightly around her body.
Username: Run While You Can I'd happily spend my life in the shadows.  I am what I am ~!~The obvious~!~ Name: Genesis T. Kayn
Nickname: Gen (Jen)
Age: 17
Height: 5"9
Weight: 119 lb. 4 oz.
+Anima: Wolf
Tattoo: [Wolf +Anima] - The tattoo travels from the top of her back to her shoulders and the claws travel down her upper arm. ~!~The not-so-obvious~!~ Personality: Genesis has always been, and probably always will be an independant person. She hates to rely or owe someone and tends to keep to herself - as do most of her kind. She can be brutally honest and believes that everyone should speak their minds. Although she does not have many friends (usually due to her straighforwardness), she is loyal to any small group she belongs to - including her family. Gen wears short sleeves and open back clothing to bare her mark with pride, no matter what kinda looks she gets - she'll just return the stare with baring her claws. Genesis also has bad habits of smoking and swearing.

Past sad (My mom ran a canvas shop, she loved painting and giving them away to anyone who wanted them. She loved life and was just a vivatious woman. Dad was always away-he was a blacksmith for the army, so he was always traveling. Mom got orders from everywhere so she was always busy, but she always managed to cook a meal for when dad came home and have a paintstsained kiss on the cheek for me. I was usualy in the back of the shop practiceing-I wanted to be just like her, hers were SO lifelike. I was four when Sally was born. Mom said she got her mail ordered from the stork to keep me company. we were happy back then. Sally and me were always together. Always painting, cooking, braiding each other's hair, romping around. Mom always said she was good at picking them out from the stork. I was twelve when our lives fell apart. Mom had been painting late at night-she'ds been useing a candell for sight. It caught on the oil paints and the house was on fire in an instant. It had to be what happened, I woke up because I heard mom screaming-but I couldn't see Sally for all the smoke, I couldn't even see in front of my face until a beam broke down. It was an oppening in the roof, a small silver of light caught the painting Mom had been working on-the only part non chared was the eagle at the top. I felt wings on my back and flew away. I was heartbroken until the rest of the house burned down and I saw at least Sally was o.k. She's all I have now, all I live for. I grabbed her and we flew away, but a kidnapper saw us and dragged us to the king to be his servents.))

Past sad (THe first thing I remeber is my onichan Renna. She's always been around-for as long as I can remeber. She taught me how to paint, and cook, and swim-oh I loved the koy pond out behind the house. I'd stay in there for hours at a time. Dad never seamed to like me, he'd get all angry whenever I came aound and look mad at mom. I don't know why. One night when I was eight I had a nightmare. Serrenedy was sound alseap ad I didn't want to wake her. So I went for a swin with the fishies like I always do! When I got out there soething was wrong though the pond was filled with oil-from Mama's paint set. I looked down and sure engough the poor koy were dying from so much oil in the pond. The only thing o,k was a little turtle. I figured mom had gotton mad because the piture wasn't inspireing enough. It was suposed to be like an eagle of peace helping a once warring nation or something. I grabbed the turtle to ask if we could keep in and started inside when I was dad holding mom's candell and whispering about 'whore' and 'imposible' about how he was gone to long for a new kid. I didn't know-what was happening, but dad lifted the candell to one of moms super pretty paintings and the whole house was on fire!!! Mom started screaming and I tried jumping in the pond, but that was on fire to because of all the oil. The little turtle in my arms curled up into his shell and ignored everything. I wished I could do that. Suddenly-I was in my shell, and I didn't get burned. Serrenedy found me afterwards with her new pretty wings and she flew us away until some mean people shot us down and brought us here))

Past: Raised in a more or less loving family when he was really little, Davyn had not a worry or care. He helped with the small chores on the farm that was his home and had a love for the animals that was only surpassed by his own father, who doted on him. The youngest of nine children, he enjoyed all that life had to offer.
All went well until the winter of his 8th year, when there was a major storm. The storm was a killer, freezing anything in it's path so that food became scarce, and packs of wild dogs had begun to prowl the area looking for food.
Davyn had gone to tend to his favorite cat - a silver tabby that he called Moxie, when he was attacked. The dogs nearly killed him before his parents heard the commotion and came to the rescue. The dogs ran from the blasts of the shotgun, but the damage had been done.
Bleeding out and shivering in the snow, the small boy reached out to his cat for solace and was met with the warmth of it's pelt for only a moment before the blackness and the cold claimed him.
He awoke to weeping. He had become a +Anima. His parents tried as best they could to shelter him, but finally, the taunting of the neighbors and the townspeople became too much to bear and they moved away... without Davyn.
Since then he has taken care of himself, always on the move so as not to be recognized as a +Anima. One has to wonder though, whether his cheerful mask is just that.
Crush: None, at the moment.
Biggest secret: That he CHOSE to become a +Anima - his cat had given him the choice. ~!~The other stuff~!~ Other: Fights with a canoe paddle. ((It's twice the size of him! <3))
Username:Kitsu_is_EPIC_FAIL Did you know that a cat only has one life, not nine? Crazy, huh? Guns don't kill people - three quarter inch holes in the head do. ~!~The obvious~!~
Name: Deitricht Vaugn Richter
Nickname: Whistle
Age: 17
Height: '5"11
Weight: 176 lbs
+Anima: Hyena
Tattoo: I have to scan it.... ~!~The not-so-obvious~!~ Personality: Cold and dour, Deitricht goes about life with a measure of disdain. He likes little, and trusts few - but once won over is loyal to the end. Tends to keep to himself and will go out of his way to avoid contact with just about anyone. He likes to keep and gather secrets, and always seems to know more than he lets on. Is, once you've broken his shell, a very passionate and emotional individual who is simply afraid of being hurt. He will not hesitate to kill if provoked, and seems to regard death with a calloused eye, as though perhaps he has seen enough of it to be unaffected. Is rather proud of being a +anima, and grows very insulted when told that someone thinks it is a curse.
Likes:
- Being praised
- Having his alone time
- Whistling (Hence his knickname)
- The feel of guns when they fire smoothely

Pet peeves:
- Messy hair
- Skimpy clothing on others ~!~The secret~!~
Past: Born in a place far to the north, Deitrich found from an early age that his family was a little eccentric... as in, they were a clan of mercenaries. Adopted at a young age from a relative, Deitricht was never sheltered from just what he was to do when he grew to be of age.
All the young boys and girls of age to be +anima in his clan were put through extensive testing as they grew, to find the animal that would most suit them in their assignments and training. Once having gotten through the testing phase, they were exposed to animals on a daily basis, and were encouraged to bond with one - if not as a pet, then as a partner.
He was chosen by a Hyena - he didn't chose it. His peers were afraid of him. All the others had bonded with local animals - but he was different, in that he was supported by something foriegn.
When the children came of age, he and the others were ritualisticly tortured to bring about the state of +anima. If unsuccessful, the child would die as a child. All who survived came that much closer to being recognized by the tribe as adults.
Deitrich was among this number. He studied well, and became a formidable fighter, his +anima state affording him a bite that could splinter bone and the nightvision of his animal counterpart. He took the order to find the princess with stride, seeing it as a way to perhaps not only bring riches to his tribe, but to inform normal people that the +anima state is not a thing to be feared, but to be embraced.
Crush: None, so far.
Biggest secret: That all he wants is for someone to love him for him, and not just what he can do. ~!~The other stuff~!~ Other: Uses a gun unless he can get up close. Is blind in the right eye. Is left handed and was born on All Hallows Eve. (Halloween)

A bit self-less, he always want to help someone in need, but his timid nature keeps him from finding out the problem or asking a simple, "How may I help?" As a loner, he always tries to fit in with people, but never could. His goal each day and every day is to try and find a best friend, someone who he can be himself around.

Past:Aisha had grown up in an average family for as long as she could remember. Even before she became a +Anima, she had always been curious about the world around her and could never stay in one place before she felt the urge to move somewhere else. Her favorite animal had always been the cat because of it's grace and agility, and whenever she saw one she couldn't help but feel happy. When she was seven she had been climbing a tree to help a cat that had gotten stuck and when she finally had the cat in her arms, the branch supporting her broke, and as she fell, she held the cat tight and thought. If I were a cat, then I would be okay. The next thing she knew she had turned her body and landed softly on her feet.
Her parents were not happy about her becoming a +Anima, in fact they were furious. They told her to leave the house and never come back and for the next two years, she had to fend for herself, doing small chores for food and shelter. Despite what she had gone through, she didn't mind being a +Anima, and enjoyed it alot.
Crush:N/A (Yet)

The only thing she has left of her parents is her mother's ocarina, and she treasures it.

He tends to stick to himself, for fear of being disliked by the others, or being in the way of others. He doesn't enjoy being teased or made fun of and will instantly retreat into himself (figuratively speaking) when that happens. He is a strategic boy, prefering the behind the scene action, leaving the other stuff to the people who like the lime light.

Past: Korsu grew up in a normal family. Though there was somthing wrong with im since he was born. For some reason he had started to lose his hearing at a young age, and no one could figure out why. After a few years, he became able to only hear the loudest of noises. Soon after that his hearing degraded even more and he hasn't been able to hear since then. He was 5 years old. He's learned to read lips and talk in sign language with the help of his parents, who try their best to make him feel normal.
A few years later, Korsu's house caught on fire while he and his family slept. It originated in the kitchen and soon spread to his parents room which was nearby. They died as their room caught on fire, he could do nothing. He had awoken in the night from the smell of smoke. And when he realized what it was, he tried to get out of the house. The effort and cost of breaking through the rapidly spreading flames was to much for his body and he fell to the ground, waiting to die. He was saved by his village as they fought with the fire and one brave man managed to slip into the house and saw Korsu on the ground, covered in severe burns. He feared it was too late for the boy but scooped him up and ran out of the house anyway. Korsu survived the ordeal, his parents died in their sleep.
Crush sad (You can send me a PM when this is ready to be filled out.))
Biggest secret: He wants to be a normal kid and not be treated differently than everyone else. ~!~The other stuff~!~ Other: Korsu CAN speak. He learned how to speak before he lost his hearing. As long as he practices, he can continue to speak with others.

Reserved. Note:There seems to be a bit of confusion about the tattoos. They aren't images of the animal, they are a representation of what is gained. I have put down examples from the manga for you guys. fish +Anima. Crow +Anima. Bat +Anima. Bear +Anima.
