There was a time before the war when Humans and Summons lived together, however, some grew fearful of their powers and in a brutal act of horror they killed the prominent King of the Dragons, Bahumut in the first battle of what came to be called the Summoner's War, without Bahumut, Odin was forced to take command and lead the summons, however they experienced heavy losses and many couldn't bear the sorrow of fighting anymore. Odin the Reaver "The moon was high into the sky and the cry 'Zantetsuken!' could be heard. It was Odin the Reaver, the knight, Gaurdian, Summon, who could literally cleave his enemies in two. This night however was his last, just as the others before him he met the same fate. Zantetsuken was not reversed upon him like in the 8th age, no a far deadlier technique had been created and now as he fell Odin began to wonder where it all went wrong. The Guardians of the world had done nothing to deserve such a fate and yet it had been thrust upon them. As Odin faded into the night he saw a hand appear and grab his sword. "...Gilgamesh..." was the last Odin uttered before disappearing. "You gave me quite an arsenal, now allow me to unleash it upon you. For your impudence your children will rise against you and wield these weapons against you." declared the man in the red cloak and then disappeared without another word. That is the story told everywhere, about how that night was hailed as the end of the war, humanity had triumphed against its enemy, but at what price? Gilgamesh's words still hung heavy in the air and each day the ruling powers become increasingly afraid of his promise, so far nothing has been reported. "Why take the chance?" The General who had struck down Odin asked. The rest of the council agreed and in a single brutal campaign set out to ensure that Gilgamesh would not have his way, little did they know that they had begun the apocalypse Gilgamesh described, it started with a boy wielding a sword that glowed a familiar shade of blue with an all-too-familiar name. The war had begun, which side will you choose? GilgameshYou have a choice, take part in Gilgamesh's curse or oppose it, the choice is left up to you.

The Rules
1) No Godmodding, pretty bassic 2) Romance is encouraged, just don't take it too far. 3) Violence is necessary, you can't talk your way out of everything. 4) No one can have the same weapon, might not make sense now but I'll elaborate more on that soon. 5) Pm all profiles to me with the title "Blades of the Departed" 6) Read the mystery condition, don't get lazy on me now. Put a ninja picture in the PM so I know you've read this. (Yes, Naruto pictures do count.)

To Elaborate: I'll post here to explain things as they come up. About Rule #4 - In the rp there will be many different kinds of weapons, this rule is to make sure that if someone gets a weapon it is unique to them, meaning no one has to guess who did what with what weapon, and besides there are plenty to choose from, why take the same one as someone else. Weapons - Your weapons can either be regular ones or, the weapons of a summon given to you discretely by Gilgamesh. He will not give you Excalibur, Masamune, and Zantetsuken, those will be reserved for those who ask and are deemed suitable for them. Here's a list of summons to look through: HEY LOOK FREE PORN!!Gilgamesh Lives, WTF MAN?! - The reason why Gilgamesh lives is for the reasons: 1)He is a collector of weapons, making him an veritable arms dealer. 2)Story telling: He was trapped in an alternate dimension, this is how he appears in most every FF game, this makes him detached from the battles 3)No one else fits the bill, seriously, you try imagining Bahumut passing out weapons without laughing.

I should have been born a human, but because of gene research I ended up a freak. By my creators I was labeled as a vampire of sorts. However I don't really need blood to live. Only to maintain any inhuman abilities I have. Also my blood can cure illness, and heal wounds as well. Even though I am can take any damage I can still feel the pain.

She was a war orphan raised by an extremely cruel bunch of villagers. She was always shuttled from one home to the next until one day her Gunblade appeared out of nowhere when she was about to be seriously hurt by some bullies. She wasted no time in defending herself. Shortly after she was charged with attempted murder and sentenced to death. The selected method of demise was to force her off a cliff. On the day of her execution she saw Jeremiah and Zenith come to her rescue after they heard of her Gunblade. During the fierce battle she was thrown off the cliff before Jeri and Zen could fight their way to her. On the way down she became aware of the other powers her weapon held, she found she had a connection to Griever. She wished she could fly and suddenly glowing white wings appeared, she was shocked but flew up just in time to avoid death. The villagers became terrified of her and begged for mercy.

Zenith was a more forceful person who didn't share Alastair's view of the world, to him the world was corrupt, nothing was fair and it would never be. Gilgamesh saw the differences in his pupils and found they both had nothing left to learn from him so before he left them he presented the Excalibur II to Alastair and the Masamune to Zenith. Despite their differences the two became friends until Alastair began waging war on the summons. Zenith refused to join him leading the two to a duel. Zentih could see the pain inside him and was able to defeat Alastair, but refused to kill him because he was the only family he had ever had.

Well to answer your question...
@Animeprincess_9400 In here the time period is not set in any of the Final Fantasy games or any other game for that matter. To put it simply, it is a world in which humanity declared war against the summons that helped them ever so much, now the only remaining one, Gilgamesh has declared that a generation will rise up against those who decided to kill the summons.

NPCs: These are the characters that will show up, they're mostly here for storytelling purposes and other random times. Here's a short list of NPCs in the story: 1)Gilgamesh, no one controls him unless he's giving out a weapon and even then it'll only be me. Other than that he remains in the shadows. 2)Disciple of Bahumut, he hangs around in the sunken city of Draconia, it's there that he's said to be perfecting some sort of special summoning spell. 3)The human king, anyone who has a Kingdom Sided character can control him to have him give them orders or declare rules and such, please try not to make everything contradictory or I will revoke this guy. 4)Villagers: Yes, cannon fodder for anything and everything you need, abuse and misuse them as you please 5)Generic enemies/monsters: feel free to abuse these guys as well. 6)Boss-Level enemies: These will occasionally appear as NPCs, anyone can be one but I suggest you do it in a battle not involving your person, it might get confusing for some.
