So I decided to commit to it. Delete the older one if necessary.
The story...
Long ago, the world was consumed by a bitter struggle over justice and ideals. The Old Order, once the head over a well controlled utopia, fell into chaos when the people rose in the name of freedom. The war ended when a flash of light---the governments final superweapon---lit the world as the last semblance of society was either destroyed or retreated to the moon above.
Yet beneath the surface of the burnt planet, many had been in hiding. As generations past, the air of the planet cleared enough that travel above the surface could once again be possible.
Communities started to build, and hope for the future started to return.
But, hope does not exist without great challenge. As the fragments of humanity reformed, so did it dissect. Though food and water supplies were difficult enough to protect from raiding parties and the like, Justice and ideals returned, and battles between factions began once again.
As a human on this long-conflicted planet, will you find the keys to bring about a new world peace? Will you pick a side and aim for global domination? Or will you simply observe the elements around you as the world consistently twists and turns?
Guidelines:
1) This is very casual. Literacy and punctuation are important, but not IRREDEEMABLY IMPORTANT, as many guilds tend to treat it.
2) If you wish to get out of character, just type OOC:, ensuring that it (and all of the OOC conversations) are in a color separate from your regular typing color.
3) There are six combat styles: Fighter, Support, Medic, Tank, Summoner/Engineer, and Overwatch. You may pick up to four for your character, though less than four is ok if you wish to make a more vulnerable character, or have them be oriented towards specific styles.
Fighter: Damage oriented. "Kill them before they kill you"
Support: Focuses on flanking enemies and supporting other classes. "Never go out unprepared."
Medic: Keeps group in good health. "When the s**t hits the fan, they always come running back to us."
Tank: Keeps the enemy distracted and soaks up damage. "Come at me with all you've got!"
Summoner/Engineer: Uses magic and/or technical skills to bring forth some extra help. "Anyone order a militia?"
Overwatch: Uses magic/items to buff teammates and debuff enemies. "Just imagine how much more difficult it would be without me around?"
4) Swords, guns, magic... whatever floats your boat. All weapons will be equally judged on effectiveness. An individuals deadliness is determined by their skill and background, not their boomsticks.
5) Be sure to include at least the character name, a picture, fighting styles, weapon, A THEME SONG and some background information. Any additional information is accepted, though.
6) Please, no more than two main characters at a time per person. If a character dies, their slot can be replaced by a new character. Side characters can be as numerous as you want, without limits. As for "Boss battle" characters, just pm me a description before posting them. I will almost always accept them.
7) You can make up different factions whenever you want (I'm keeping that open to ideas), and you can name your attacks/spells, too.
cool Even though this is a dark atmosphere, do not be afraid to be comedic with characters and situations biggrin
9) HAVE FUN! We can make changes and whatnot if there are any issues.
