SO! we've seen Arts with Burst Legends, but... the two of us over the past 2 years have been busy lol. some RPs took off, some failed with a lack of consistent postings from the players and some have never got past the drawing boards at all due to time constraints haha!
But we reckon this guild may be the guild to unleash them on again for a second try... and with that, we give you
The Shard Legends(tbc).
Rough timeline versionBasically, all of our RPs can be linked together in some way or another to form a sort of multi verse style world, actually it's more like a Marvel Comic style world... Each RP can be linked to a few others by either background Ideas, or multiple choices and outcomes of each RP and so on. Some only have slight references that explain some extra context in an RP.
We have a few in that map that have been completed, and there's a high probability that we won't play them. If we did play them again then they'd have to go through some changes.
Ancestors - Ancestors is a little bit of an oddity if it's compared with the rest(it’s also a bit unfinished so there IS plot holes sadly), it features a more supernatural theme and generally explains most of the back story(so far) for the Atlantians. The RP follows 8 kids and their chosen destinies as they try and piece together ‘the old war’ and stop history from repeating its self. The kids themselves take on the powers of what can only be described as their ancestors, though no direct link can be found to them(lol plot hole), in order to do so.
8-bit Heroes –
more info can be found here. Though it isn’t explained in the RP and probably won’t be, there are two ideas that can link 8-bits to the world. One is that Dave is in fact an immortal and has the power to create pocket dimensions, the other being that Daves computer was upgraded at one point with a processor using shard material… Either way the RP isn’t serious enough to HAVE to fit in…
Paradox – Paradox is another unfinished RP so there is some kinks to iron out… It features time travelling and is again another supernatural styled RP, though less so than Ancestors. The RP follows 5 people that find out they have the powers of the Atlantians through converging family lines that cause the powers to reawaken, and their battle to stop ‘a great calamity’ from falling over the world. However their powers didn’t reawaken in time and they fail… They survive the coming years and manage to get a grasp of their powers, even though the world is ********, and choose to try and ******** it by travelling back in time to train their younger selves before it’s too late and stop the ‘great calamity’ from happening. Unfortunately for everyone alive their time shenanigans cause the ‘GC’ to happen even faster, and now it’s a race against time to stop it again.
Plague – A Zombie Survival RP, not much else to say about that. The RP is based on the scenario that the children from Ancestors fail in their quest and a ‘great calamity’ is unleashed onto the world. Gameplay is interesting, basing the characters survival skills on things that you yourself could manage. And slowly building on them as the RP advances.
Ninja 2020 - As the shards found in Burst Legends have been around since the time of Atlantis, so have other 'power' users. Ninja 2020 is based around the use of powers through sheer will and training. When Atlantis disappeared, so did the shards, but the teaching lived on in survivors if the Atlantian people, and it is these teachings that allow them to push their bodies to their limits and beyond. The power users in this RP are 100% human, with 200% awesome, wall running up 5 stories and doing high jumps on mid air are nothing to these people. Some have even perfected their arts to such an extent that they can call forth 'supernatural' powers though really they can all be explained with science. The RP follows a group of 'Ninja' in the modern day who work to bring down corrupt world leaders, working behind the scenes to forward the world to a better future, or at least they believe they are doing so.
Monsterous Regiment – A group of ‘werewolves’ who in fact are an extremely potent form of immortals(explained more in Captured and Broken) who have lost the longevity in exchange for the ability to pass their condition on both ‘virally’ and genetically. The story follows a tight nit ‘pack/family’ of weres that have enrolled in the military. The story takes place in their second major mission, a mission to stop the launch of a massive biological weapons that could alter world history.
Captured and Broken - This RP details the troubles of a group of immortals that have been captured for experimentation to unlock the secrets of their powers to create super soldiers. The RP follows their escape, or their failure to, from the facility and uncover it's true purpose.
Burst legends -
Info can be found here No point in typing it out twice...
virolution/Badlands – Both of these RPs were originally guild wide rps so there’s a LOT of info with them…
They happen far far in the future, and are the results of the missiles from Monsterous Regiment being fired. The virus was in development to speed up the mutation rate in DNA of soldiers, or in other words, speed up evolution to create super-soldiers, however it was highly unreliable and generally killed 95% of the test subjects, the other 5% were successful in some form.
However a missile from Monsterous regiment hit the facility and released the virus to the world, where it spread extremely fast had the same results, killing off 95% of the worlds population, leaving a handful of people and nature.
But the virus mutated its self, as viruses tend to do over time, and it began to infect every living thing on the planet which also began to mutate rapidly, giving rise to a small number of humanoids of almost every species. A third viral mutation gave rise to ‘Viroids’ animals that didn’t react to the second mutation that contracted this virus became mindless grotesque monsters.
The setting for the RPs were both very different, one took place inside a futuristic city that was guarded from the extremely dangerous forests of the world vy a massive armed wall. The other was set in a desert environment that used an old fuel mining colony for its main areas.
