Magical Girl Saga: Season 1

[ImportantNobody]

Introduction
.
This roleplay can be serious at times, but is also not afraid to delve into the realm of humor with parodies on anime clichés, most notably the Magical Girl genre, but anything anime is fair game and of course other types of jokes are always welcome. Only join if you like a healthy mix of both humor and a good roleplay (which should be everyone ).

Magical Girls/Guys and their Crystals of Power
.
Called MG's for short (Magical Girl or Magical Guy), the MG's are said to hold the greatest power potential out of any human. Every time there's a problem that could threaten the entire world, a new generation of MGs are sent in to stop it. Countries from all over the world can be selected to become MG's, but the official meeting place for them has traditionally been in Shousai (晶萃) Japan (a location I made up). The force behind the creation of the powers that MG's use is believed to be from a woman known as Lady Arentaria, the world's first magical girl who is said to be as powerful as a whole MG generation combined, but sacrificed her mortal body in order to allow for future generations of magical girls to exist and continue to protect the world that both she and they love so much. Her power is transferred to them in the form of things known as Crystals of Power, given from inside an unmarked box of the color of the Crystal of Power inside (explained below). This box is delivered from the jaws of a platinum colored fox with sparkling eyes that turns all the different colors of the Crystals of Power. He's invisible to most normal mortals during this time and he never makes even the slightest of sounds. The only time he's visible to everyone is when he descends to earth in what appears to be a silver colored comet, signifying the beginning of a new generation of MGs.
.
The Crystals of Power come in different shapes and colors, the colors being Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet, Pink, White, Black, Bronze, Silver, and Gold. While Bronze, Silver, and Gold Crystals of Power are given to males, black and white can go to either male or female, and the other colors are given to females. For age groups involved, most of the time they're given to teenagers who both have room to grow in power with the crystal and are old enough to be able to carry the responsibilities of being an MG. Some younger and some older have become MG's, but this is rarely the case. None of the Crystals of Power are said to be superior or inferior to the others in any way; they're simply different. Some can allow the MG to use fire, some water, some illusion, etc., and in most cases some or all of their physical abilities are also enhanced. Working together with other MG's can allow even more abilities to be used.
.
The existence of MG's are not a secret to the populace, but obviously a lot of things about them are kept secret or covered up for security purposes. Most people simply know them as the cool guys and girls who run around saving people from monsters. However, not all MG's are so nice. Every so often one of them turns bad for one reason or another, in which case it's the duty of the other MG's to take him or her down and retrieve their Crystal of Power, which is then swallowed by the mysterious platinum colored fox. MG's aren't supposed to work in the favor of only the country that they come from. Instead, their duty is to the entire world. This has some difficulties during times of war, with teams made up of individuals from opposing sides, but most of the time they were able to work together on missions for the common good of mankind. The MG's may seem to have a lot on their shoulders, but they do have both each other and Magical Companions to help them out.
.
Magical Companions
.
Called MC for short, these little guys/girls/its are actually the Crystals of Power transformed into the form of a creature while keeping the same color scheme and type of powers as the magical girl who's destined to wield that crystal. They rarely look humanoid. They're as unique as humans are, or possibly even more so. They can communicate telepathically to anyone, but have the strongest link to their MG. It's the job of the MC to guide the MG on his or her journey. Some can be more helpful then others, but beggars can't be choosers. The MC's are assumed to be immortal, as a few of them have been around for every single generation of MGs. MC's are switched between generations every so often, but that's a rare occurrence. So why not just send them out to save the day? For one thing their actual "power levels" are unable to come close to the potential of the MG's. Second, if they take enough damage they may dissolve into a bunch of flashing lights, causing the MG to lose his/her power and the MC doesn't reappear again for that generation. While in crystal form they can take far more damage, but even then may suffer the same fate.
.
The MC needs to be in crystal form in order for the MG to transform, in which case their essence is absorbed into the MG's chest. While in crystal form they can't do anything besides communicate telepathically. Besides these MC's is the Platinum Fox, who's also considered to be an MC, but to who is unknown. Most just accept that he helps out all magical girls, but he's very seldom seen. Also, as far as anyone knows there's no platinum Crystal of Power given out to anyone.
.
Suit Levels/Transformations
.
Although magical girls start out with only a single transformation called Suit Level 1, with enough training they can transform again while already transformed, giving them a more powerful suit called Suit Level 2, and thus a better set of powers and abilities beyond what they could achieve in their normal suit. Beyond Suit Level 2 is also a third, which takes even more effort to pull off. The higher the suit level, the more energy is used up both in the transformation itself and in maintaining the transformation, and takes longer to pull off unless you're just that good. That means it's more efficient to fight in your lower transformations unless you need to go higher. All magical girls can theoretically reach up to Suit Level 3 with enough training, but up until later generations of magical girls it was almost unheard of for any of them to achieve Suit Level 3 until they were well out of their teens. Even Suit Level 2's took a few generations to figure out how to do so.
.
Transformation sequences cause the clothing you were wearing to be replaced with your magical girl suit. Energy is given off during this time, resulting in flashes of light and sometimes various other theatrics that conceal you while you're transforming, both from the...*ahem*...watchful eye and from attacks. The defensive capabilities of this light is actually greater then a lot of defensive moves that can be pulled off normally. A strategy was even developed to transform to deflect an attack, but obviously you only have limited transformations and it takes a lot of energy to do so. The time it takes to complete a transformation sequence varies depending on the individual and practice, but it's possible to get it to happen instantaneously, or at it's longest stretch around 10 seconds before transformations tend to run out of steam and fail. This doesn't include the time in building up the necessary energy and preparing to begin the transformation, which could take as long as it...well...takes. While dancing during transformation sequences is a tradition, in most cases it's not necessary. Some say carrying out a set routine while transforming keeps their concentration on the task at hand.
.
Monsters and other Magical Beings
.
While this is still Earth, magical influences have changed it from the Earth we know in some ways, from strange new phenomenon to deadly monsters. However, the every day monster is not enough to cause a new generation of MG's to be called upon to save the day. This only happens when said monsters, or other dangers, are powerful enough to cause global catastrophe. The Crystals of Power are said to need time to "rest" for long periods of time in between generations, so they can't always be there to help fight the monsters. Other magical beings may be on the side of justice, evilness, or everywhere in between. Things like vampires and werewolves don't technically exist, but some magical beings may resemble what influenced such legends. I dislike both vampires and werewolves, so if you're not an MG then try and be a more original monster/magical being (if you aren't a normal human). Compared to an MG's maximum potential, almost everything else doesn't stand a chance...almost everything. There are some things out there that you don't want to mess with, and besides, most MG's won't be at maximum potential anyways. At least at the start.
.
Miscellaneous Information
.
*Shousai Japan was chosen as the meeting place and headquarters to the MG's due to Lady Arentaria being born there. It's a quiet, peaceful village but with a bustling "Outer Shousai" city surrounding it for tourists. Most of "Inner Shousai" is reserved for special monks at temples, MGs, MCs, and other high honored guests and assistants. Inside the central living quarters has a room specifically designed to the likings of each MG. They're always welcome there, but if they're there too often...aren't they doing their job?
*Not all MGs live the high life, and many have even died in the line of duty. In fact, sometimes entire teams have died and roughly 30% of all MG's have died at least once in the line of duty. At least once, you ask? Well, there's an afterlife known as Joukai ( 上徊 ) where people who haven't completed their life's purpose go. After undergoing some rigorous trials to prove how badly they want to return to earth, someone in Joukai can came back to life on Earth in a new body modeled perfectly after their previous one in most cases. This can officially only be done once and only if you died for a noble cause, although there are some loopholes to exploit. People in Joukai can't die there (they pop back to life moments later), but they can be transported to their final resting place.
*There have been 16 Generations of MGs prior to the events of this roleplay, putting their appearances at well under once a century, making it a big deal when they appear, and putting them within the realms of simple legends by many. The 4th generation was the first to have a member achieve a Suit Level 2. It was also, ironically, the first one to have it's entire team die. They were evacuating citizens away from the danger zone of a magical attack as powerful as a nuclear blast nearby Kyoto Japan, which has left a crater to this day and has a memorial for them at the epicenter. They were successful in their endeavor. Generation 9 also saw it's entire team die, but this time to complete tragedy. Generation 10 brought about the Suit Level 3. A total of only five generations had no team members die, the latest being Generation 16, what's said to be the greatest one yet and a tough spot to fill for the newcomers of Generation 17.
.
Plot
.
Generation 17 has begun today at the appearance of a silver "meteorite" descending from the sky at exactly midnight. However, it was actually the Platinum Fox, a mysterious being who delivered the Crystals of Power containing Lady Arentaria's energy to 12 chosen individuals around the world. He didn't say a word; simply dropping off the crystal and leaving as suddenly as he came. The various Magical Companions to these recently appointed Magical Girls and Guys transformed from the crystal inside the box they had received, revealing their destiny as defenders of the world's peace. Apparently there was a threat looming within the darkness that was more powerful then any that had been seen before. The Dark Master, a highly dangerous being, had escaped from his prison, the Crystal of Unbreakable Chains, and had once again set his sights on destroying the world. Monster attacks are becoming far more frequent in response to his evil energy. The job of the MGs is to find and destroy the Dark Master, but the source of his energy has been shrouded in mystery. For now they must try and deal with his minions while gaining clues about where he is and how to defeat him. Two high level minions are twins, a woman and a man, who are apparently from another world.
.
Rules
.
1. Standard forum rules apply (such as god modding)
2. I can add more rules when needed
3. IC posts should have a good sized paragraph at least (around 6 sentences)
4. Posting order should be upheld to give everyone time to post, but if you're in a situation separated from other characters then it wont matter as much to wait for people outside of that scenario to post.
5. If someone is gone for a week without notice, they can be dealt with in this roleplay however I see fit.
6. Reservations of character colors only last you 3 days until you need to post your character or else someone else can snatch the spot. Extensions can be offered for special circumstances, but don't randomly pop in after 5 days asking for an extension.

Character Sheet
.
Use this website to make an appearance for your character (unless you have a reasonable excuse why not): http://www.dolldivine.com/sailor-senshi-maker.php
It starts out with a minor state of undress at the beginning, as all dress up games probably do, just as a warning in case you have very strict parents watching over your back. It's nothing worse then what you'd see at the beach, so don't worry. If you don't know how to save the image on the website, you can always hit "PrtSC" on the top row of your keyboard two to the left of "Delete", then hit past on Microsoft Paint (or an equivalent program that lets you paste images), then save that image there. At least include the Suit Level 1 appearance.
Example of this:

Spoiler

Name-
Age-
Gender-
Nationality- (All nations are welcome)
Appearance- (Read the information at the top of "Character Sheet")
Personality-
Powers- (Keep all your powers to a certain theme, such as if you have fire, only have fire based attacks rather then throw in some water ones)
Talents- (Not magic, but useful things you can do)
Bio- (I don't need their entire life story, but post important stuff that we should know)
.
What about a sheet for your Magical Companion, you ask? You can create him/her/it using the same sheet (obviously minus the nationality). Things like age and bio could probably be hard on you without me explaining more about the backstory of all the magical companions, so I won't be too hard on your sheet. Just post what you know about them and we can have some mysteries to fill in. The magical companions don't count as your second character. If you don't wish to play as a magical companion, or perhaps only want to play as a magical companion, why not give the slot for your magical companion to the one who wants to play one? Otherwise, they can just be an unhelpful one who rarely wakes up or something.

[Bumblebee848]

Name - Levina Audenaert
Age - 16
Gender - Female
Nationality - Belgian

Appearance -

Personality -
Bubbly, energetic, and a bit hotheaded. She's always the 'happy-go-lucky one' and rarely lets herself get down in the dumps, and is typically one to spot the silver lining in even the worst situations. Not incredibly intelligent, she's prefers to solve things simply and easily, with a fight! Often times she'll jump right in, head first, without a single thought of repercussions and/or consequences.

Powers -
Her powers grant her control over electricity, lighting in particular. When fighting, she is able to coat parts of her body with a layer of electricity, which stimulates her muscles and cells, making her movements enhanced in both speed and strength.

Super Kick Special - A quick combo of rapid kicks in quick succession.
Yellow Roundhouse - A lighting fast roundhouse kick, often appearing only as a streak of yellow to the naked eye.
Electric Two Step - Light footed maneuvers based on a basic hip hop move that lets her effectively dodge attacks.
Lightning Pop n Lock - A fast combo attack of punches and kicks with a flurry of confusing movements in between, based on a more complex hip hop move.
Lightning Knuckle - This attack coats her knuckles in electricity, giving her punches and extra, er...punch.
Lightning Strike - She gathers all her electricity into her fist, making her punch a focused electrocution point.
Dancing Thunderbolt - She fires a thunderbolt and manipulates it to a certain extent while it's in the air, making it appear as if it's dancing.
Ultra Ultimate Thunderbolt - In this attack, she is able to draw electricity from the sky, and bring it down on a specific target in one focused burst. Limited to days when there is lightning.
Ultimate Thunder Dragon - A special attack in which her weasel-like MC is coated in electricity and travels like a thunderbolt. While in this state, it elongates and grows, almost resembling a dragon as it travels at high speeds.

Talents -
She focuses quite a bit on her physical prowess, always looking to keep herself in shape, and constantly trying to become stronger. Her skills don't deviate from this mindset very much.

Hip Hop - She is a talented hip hop dancer, incorporating it into many aspects of her life as a MG. She chooses to dance a hip hop routine during her transformation sequence, focusing heavily on footwork.
Kickboxing - Where most of her fighting prowess stems from.
Parkour - She practices parkour regularly, training her agility and overall strength, especially since becoming a MG.
Running - She has speed on her side, and a good deal of endurance.
Baking - Not cooking. She is good at making sweet treats, but any other attempt she makes in the kitchen turns out as an utter disaster. If she ever offers to make something besides dessert do not accept.

Bio -
Levina was born in a small poor town of northern Belgium. As the oldest of three daughters, she often burdened herself with supporting the family, as their father had abandoned them when her mother grew sickly after the birth of her youngest daughter. Too young to get a respectable job at the time, she turned to the lifestyle of a thief. As she spent most of her time running from angry shop owners, she gained a strong physical body early on, learning to place most of her trust and priorities into maintaining her strength. This was how she got into parkour, and long distance running.
One day, when she was stealing from a small house, she was caught by a woman far stronger than Levi. Rather than punish her, however, the woman fed her, and asked her what she hoped to gain from stealing. Levi answered truthfully, and in return, the woman offered to make her stronger.
The woman was a renowned kickboxer, and decided to become Levi's trainer. When she felt Levi displayed a good amount of skill, she offered her the chance to continue training in the U.S, which would give Levi the chance to properly support her family, by sending back her winnings from tournaments. Levi immediately agreed, and left for the states, where she became one of the youngest kickboxers with her level of skill and strength, fueled only by sheer willpower.
It was during her time in the states that she discovered hip hop, drawn to the heavy strong movements that other dance styles lacked, and immediately claimed it as 'her' art form.
At the time of the Platinum Fox's descent, she was training in New Jersey.
