A crack in the night;

a bone chilling roar;

a soundless scream.


Since before civilization, mankind has always feared the dark - or rather, that which lies beneath it. Horrors that roam as mere ideas for us when we are in the safety of day, and come to a twisted, wretched life at dusk. Ever and always, man has devised ways to fend off the darkness, methods both real and imagined. This fear led to the explosive expansion of man - this fear developed fire, agriculture, medicine. From this fear, civilization was born. The mad scramble to drive away the darkness had urged mankind ever forward.

And yet, it is also this same fear that kept the darkness alive.

The fear that gave birth to civilization had also borne with it . . .

Theft . . .

Cowardice . . .

Genocide . . .

Evil . . .

And with the birth of evil, the abominations that resided in the void us laughed and swelled in numbers and strength. They fed upon evil, and grew into true, living horrors -- horrors that spilled upon the reality of our world. And with evil as its sword and fear as its shield, horror encroached upon mankind. The corruption eroded at the roots of a budding civilization, threatening to kill humanity before the concept even existed. And Man was nearly driven back into the darkness, were it not for one thing:

Sacrifice

Just as fear had borne evil, evil had birthed sacrifice and courage. With the tools given to them by the enemy itself, mankind pushed back. The idea that death meant nothing, so long as those around them could live and love as they wished, resonated throughout the earth, and the horrors were driven back into the dark, and faded into legend, to disappear from collective human memory.

Still, humanity would not easily forget that which nearly eradicated them. Though society as a whole has forgotten what it meant to fear the darkness, there are those that still carry the burden of those memories, and the responsibility that comes with it; the responsibility to fight with your life on the line, knowing that they are the only one's that can. They stand as stalwart sentinels against the night.

The Kispu Sinnis Wardatu

The Magical Girl.



So yeah, this is, as you've guessed, a magical girl RP. On the specifics of the magical girl lore here, I'll leave it blank - that, and many others will be covered in the RP proper, as I want this to be a learning experience. As for what I can say about the RP:

  • Gonna be a lot of politicking here
  • Characters are limited to females only as of now, with ages ranging from 12 - 16
  • Expect the lore and magic system to be complex
  • Expect a lot of NPC's from me; it's kinda necessary
  • The story is global by nature, so feel free to make a character who lives or comes from any nation without worry.
  • HAVE FUN, BECAUSE I KNOW I WILL.


As for the rules, it should be obvious: Basic RP rules, no godmodding, yadda yada, ect.

Need at least 4 players to start with.

Will we be assigned powers in the IC or in the OOC? I'm asking because I generally create my character with their power in mind. But if in IC, then I will create my character without that knowledge.

@Tombprince & @Stern Algorithm You do have leeway to create your abilities. It's just that later on you'll be given choices on general attributes to focus your crafted ability on.

Name: Winnie Tran

Age: 13

Nationality: Vietnamese-Australian

Picture/Description:


Abilities: (Leave this blank for now! Your abilities will be gained at the start of the RP, but I'll be the one deciding on them)

Personality:
A non-stop chatterbox. Quick-witted and sassy, won't attack others unless provoked, gets along well with people. A bit lazy when it comes to studying but still manages to get top-notch grades. A bit distant from parents, she feels like they don't get her.

Likes:

  • Arts and crafts (baking, too)
  • Dogs and other cute animals
  • Watching cartoons with her sister

Dislikes:

  • Being pressured by parents
  • Mean people
  • Her geography teacher

Fears: "I haven't really thought about it, but losing my family and friends, I guess? Wait, did you just say this was a life and death situation?"

Bio: Born to fairly affluent parents who immigrated to Australia during the Vietnam War in their teens, Winnie was the youngest of two daughters. Winnie's life so far has been carefree and uneventful, getting along with everyone she meets and living in the lap of luxury thanks to her parents who hold significant roles in the national bank. Gets along very well with her sister who's in her final year of high school ("Like peanut butter and jam! Though Nat is allergic to peanuts...").

Winnie has just started her first year of high school. She's attending the same private girl's school as her sister. Winnie's looking forward to all the new friends and changes that come with high school. Oh, and that magical girl thing sounds pretty cool to her too.

Name: Shakti Subramaniam

Age: 16

Nationality: Indian

Picture/Description:


Abilities: N/A

Personality: Shakti is severe and judgmental, with a tendency to be condescending to those who do not meet her high standards. She is a perfectionist and places high value on individual effort. She doesn't believe that systems, environments, institutions, or fate can truly stop a motivated individual and won't accept that excuse from anyone. Shakti is driven when it comes to her goals and will do whatever it takes to achieve them, though she is too straight-forward to be a schemer.
Likes:
  • School
  • Trying fancy foods
  • Clocks/schedules

Dislikes:
  • Tardiness
  • Excuses
  • Narrow-mindedness/ignorance

Fears: Trypophobia. Invasion of personal space, body, and mind. She hates the idea of something getting under her skin, figuratively and literally. She believes there should be an absolute barrier of fear dividing any two individuals at all times.

Bio: Shakti was raised in India by fairly affluent parents who provided her with the best that could be found. Their expectation of her in return for all this was that she excel in her studies and become a 'global citizen'. She grew up in an educational system that still clung very strongly to the vestiges of British influence, so she learned to speak perfect English and wears a uniform to school. Rising to the top of her class, Shakti became something of a ruthless ice queen. With her whole future ahead of her, her biggest worry in life right now is deciding what field she wants to focus on in higher education.
