This an RP based partly off of a story I'm writting. This first post contains the plot of the story, which you need to somewhat understand to do this RP, and how the RP will work:

Story Plot
In the story my friends, my siblings, and I are puzzleing on gaia and get sucked into the internet and turned into our gaian avatars. This is because some weird virus is affecting the internet causing a bunch of online sites to mix together into a single world that shouldn't exist. We have been brought in from the real world to stop the virus and get the internet back to normal.

This is how the RP will work:
In the RP, we start after everyone has been sucked in (though people could join late because I have that happen with a couple characters in the story) and we begin our journey to fix the internet in this wierd, mass-site world. Each person plays as their current gaia avatar or a tektek dream avatar. Each character has a magic power and a weapon, though the weapon isn't necessary for avatar's who's magic can help them in battle.

Character Profile Format:
Post the following as your first/profile post.
Name:
Gender:
Character Image:
Magic Power:
Weapon:

Since that form above may need explaining, here's the info.
NOTE: Even if you think you get it all, read through this. There will be info you'll need for creating your character.

Name: This is the name of the character. Must be human as they are humans, they just look like gaia avatars.

Gender: This is the gender of the character. It can be different than their physical gender because one of the characters in my story is a girl who's avatar is male... hence she physically looks male, but is still a female technically.

Character Image: Here you tell me if you are using your current avatar (I will save a copy for the characters list if you are) or insert a tektek image of your character if it isn't your avi.
NOTE: All avatars must have either pants, a jacket, a bag/purse, or a hat that will act as the new form of their inventory. Characters will be able access any items stored in their inventory through the pockets of the jacket/pants or by pulling them out of the hat/bag/purse.

Magic Power:
Remember when I said to read this even if you understood. This section (and that note in the above one) is the reason why. In this one I tell you all the possible limits to your imagination as far as powers are concerned. Because of how things work in my story, some types of avatars have specific types of powers where others let you be more creative. I will let you know what to look for when telling me your character's powers in the next post.

Weapon(s):
This isn't required as I said above, but if you do have any weapons you want your character to have you must post them. I'd prefer the list not to be longer than five (5), but you can have more if, like Katie, Matt, or Greg (see the avatars in the post below) you are using a weapon for wings or some other physical part of your avatar. They can be removed and used then, but don't count on your weapons list.

Rules to your magic:
#1: Please work with the limits I set. You'll probably find a way to have what you want if you work with me.
#2: If I ask you to change your power for some reason please do so. I will only do this if you don't follow my ristraints or make your character too powerful.
#3: Characters get one power only. The only exception to this is the ability of flight. If an avatar has wings like Matt, Katie, or Greg (See avis below) it can fly, but also has another power related to the rest of the avatar's appearance.
#4: If I add anything here, it's to keep things to the storyline.
#5: Last, but not least, have fun with the creation. ^_^

Power Types:
Here I explain the types of powers I set restraints to.

Half Animals:

Characters like Katie, Greg, Dakota, and Jenny who are half animal generally have the ability to turn full animal. Meaning Katie and Greg become full dragon, Dakota can become a full werewolf, and Jenny can become full wolf. I have one exception to this and that is.....

Character Avis:

If, like Jon, your avi is created off of a character from a videogame, book, movie...ect You get the abilities of that character. I may make you tone the powers down if they are too powerful, but generally I let these be as they are.

Elemental Avatars:

Id you have an avatar with an element related item, like Sarah, your avatar is an elemental and has the related element as it's power. The only exception to this is flame sword. That technically counts as a weapon, so has no effect on your avatar's power.

Random Powers:

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

This catagory is all the other powers. If, like Matt, Emily and Joey, you don't fall under any of the catagories above, your avatar can have whatever power you want it to.

NOTE: all avatars used as examples in this post are actual characters from the story. They are the avatars/dream avatars of my friends and cannot be used in this RP because the character they represent is created off of the friend. I won't even use Matt, which is the character created off of me, for the sake of makeing this rule fair for everyone.

Character List:
Here I will put the profiles of everyone so there is a single reference for people to look at for info about characters in the RP.

Websites in the Mix:
This is also just a helpful one place list of websites that are included in this mass world. PM me with any that you would like to add.
Gaia Online
Neopets
