Fate. The ever popular belief that one is not in control of one's destiny. That someone, somewhere in time, is ultimately guiding you. And if you believed it to be true... you're right. The norns, the three sisters designed to control the paths of mortals, are truely the masters of fate. But what if you could change fate? What if you could alter time, undo the future, which is your past? Humans, in the year 2011, have came up with the ability to alter chronotons, the particles which are like fibers of the time space continuum. While a smart idea at first, the humans did not seem to understand they were killing fate... as well as time.
A fate, aptly named norn, derives her power from time. But the destruction of fate, the defying of fate, it often times weakens a norn, more and more. Her control is lost, so is her power. When the time travellers came, so did the desire to rectify the situation, but due to the chronoton flux, they could not see when.
Humans began messing with time, as the norns first attempted to try and correct the mistakes of the past and future. But... when they finally realize that they've violated the first rule of time, never interfere.... why not make fate stronger? more powerful?
Rules of time travel for norns:
Skuld grows stronger the further in the future she is, and thus larger. Urd is the opposite, stronger in the past than the future. These two are directly tied to one another. Verdandi, however, lives in the present, which is never any different.
When time is extended, belldandy grows. When time is shortened, belldandy shrinks. Urd and skuld grow and shrink in proportion to where they're at in time respectively. When they are at the beginning of time, skuld is twice beldandy's size, and urd is half, and of course, vice versa at the end.
I.E. if the norns are standing at 1/1/2009, at five feet tall, and time is extended 1000 years, Skuld will grow, but not Urd. By proportion, the norns have not moved in time at all, but they are more "in the past" than before. Consequently, if time is shortened by 1000 years, urd will grow, but not skuld.
The goal to grow is to extend time... more.. and more... and more

Well, there's not much to say here, except try to keep it interesting if you can, and follow the tos rules. Also, even if you are a god or goddess, it won't be cake walk to overpower a norn.
Skuld, the norn of the future, can achive foresight, basiclly knowing what will happen, before it happens.
Verdandi, The norn of the present, can make an instatanious moment happen.
Urd, The norn of the past, has hindsight (Unknown by the other two) to let her know what has happened before.
Also, as the past and the future changes, so does Urd's and Skuld's personalities, repectively. The more plesent the future is, the more peaceful Skuld becomes, and vise-versa. Same goes to Urd with the past.
Verdandi dosen't grow like the other two, instead she grows or shrinks the longer or shorter time gets. She is also immune to any changes in the past or the future, this is the voice of reason between the two.

(Alright then I'll go ahead and mess the hell out of the time stream.)
The walls were solid white and filled with curves not a single corner could be found in the building. Men and women in equally white coats moved about the halls of the ground and upper floors. These floors were all about the theory of things how to make the innovations of the future and how to make them work. It was the lower floors the floors under the feet of the men and women in white coats that created the innovations and put them to use. The newest of which was the BYBT project. It was the worlds first fully functioning time machine.
It worked by creating what was called a time bubble. It looked like a floating sphere of clear water. In reality it wasn't liquid at all, but that doesn't really matter. What matters was whatever or whoever entered the bubble would be taken to any targeted location and time that they specified. And thats exactly what was about to happen the first ever use of said time machine with a living breathing person.
----------------------------------------------------------
Tyler slipped on the helmet a little air escaped as it sealed tightly with his suit. "All ready doc." A large man walked up to him, he was dressed in a rather expensive suit. "Remember don't mess about. This is just a test run. You are just going to walk around record a little of what you see then return. Nothing else, got that?" Tyler nodded then turned about and walked over to the designated area for the jump. It was simple a empty part of the large room with a rather large red x on the floor. A voice came over the intercom briefly as it counted down till the bubble would form. Then as the voice predicted a sharp snap and a large clear bubble shimmered in from of him. Tyler stepped in and in an instant took a step back out. Only this time he was in England, 1349 AD with the black death running a muck. "Well this is certainly something else." Tyler said in amazement as he flipped on his helmet's camera and began to record.
The landscape was filled with death and dieing. His cloak was enabled letting him get closer to some of the villages without ever being seen. This was just a test jump after all. However from here on out missions would be a bit more intrusive. Tyler watched village after village each filled with morning. It was a terrible sight to behold. It really started to get to Tyler after a while the needless death on such a scale that could be stopped. But he couldn't he didn't know what would happen in the present if he did. So he walked and he watched and was preparing to go home.
Then he heard a cry for help. It was soft and in the distance, he instantly started towards it. He soon found a family slaughter cut to bits and pieces. He figured that he'd heard the death screams of this family, but then he head something inside the small home the bodies were infront of. He took a look inside and saw three men all with weapons and in a mix of light and heavy armor. At first it look like nothing, but he caught the sight of a young body between them. The young girl screamed out for him only to be silenced with a swift slap by one of the men. That same man then grabbed her by the arm and pulled her to her feet then slammed her to the wall.
Tyler couldn't help, but watch. He knew what was about to happen and he knew that he could stop it. It would be so easy the armor they had wouldn't hold up to even his knife much less a bullet. He could just squeeze the trigger three times and it would be done, but he couldn't. He was told not to interfere. He watched as they started to grab at her cloths starting to tear them away. She screamed again and he reacted by reflex. Three shots rang out and the three men dropped to the ground large holes in their backs. He came out of cloak the girl was scared out of her mind. She backed away to the corner liked an animal curled up and crying. Tyler quickly removed his helmet, "Its ok, its ok I'm not here to hurt you." He tired to say in a as kindly as he could.
None the less the girl just sat there facing away from him like he was some kind of monster. "What the hell am I doing." he said to himself, "What the hell have I done." He stood up putting his helmet back on. "What the hell have I done." A time bubble snapped into existence before him. He walked through.

Urd jolted as her head looked straight ahead of her, whether or not she was looking at anyone. She felt a tincy bit nicer, but that was the problem. She didn't do it. neither did her sisters. They were only to observe, their first rule, never to interfere. But someone interfered with the past, She felt it.

With a loud snap he was back in the same large dull grey room with the red x bellow his feet. He could see the large man one Mr. Graceson in his suit, his face blood red. "What the hell was that!" "I believe it was England." "Very funny smart a**. You killed not one, or two, but three people. THREE PEOPLE. Your extremely lucky that those people were going to die only a few days later from the plague. You can't go doing whatever you want back there." Tyler just listened like a child being scolded "Sorry sir." he said once Graceson was finished. "Sorry. You know what your lucky I don't have you shot. Get out of my sight, if you do it fast I may consider not firing you." Tyler did as he was told and quickly left the room walking by other person heading in for the next jump.
---------------------------------------------------
With the new jumper in place and Tyler back in his quarters they got ready for the next trial jump. This time it was a bit more intrusive then last. They expected some casualties this time, but only a few. The man in an identical suit to Tylers' walked to the center of the room. He waited for the snap and walked through the bubble to the past.
He landed in Israel 75 AD in the middle of a Roman attack. The walls would hold out the Romans this day, but that wasn't way he was sent back. It was what was going to leave the walls on that day. It was the last known position of the Ark of the Covenant. It was a simple job slip in and steal the Ark. It was lost to history anyway so it wouldn't have a huge impact on history. However he would most likely end up having to kill a few people to get said ark.
