So, here's a quick summary:

With the invention of the Ω (Omega) Amp, a device that attaches to a performer's body and harnesses the power of their music, sound itself has become the world's most potent weapon. The Music Industry rules the world. Individual countries which have stood for hundreds of years fell one by one and were overtaken by The Genres. You know the ones, Metal, Country, Hip Hop, Classical, etc. For a time, the world was in turmoil, as the Genres, and their Label Armies (more like squads, or bands, really) vied for complete supremacy.

But one Label sought to change that. The people behind Locksley Records remembered what it was like before the great Dividing. It was a world where genres not only coexisted, but could harmonize with one another, and combine their styles to create greater and more beautiful things. The people behind Locksley Records wants to bring that time back. They have scoured the world for the best and the brightest musicians, artists, and dreamers, and they have brought those people together to create the band, Collaboration.

As a member of Collaboration, it will be up to you to use your expertise, musical skills, and imagination to defeat the champions of the Genres and reunite the world in perfect harmony! Do you have what it takes?

A character sheet will be expected to have a particular genre, instrument, and some sort of background. Feel free to add whatever you like.

I made a quick character bio for reference:

Name: Melody Shine (Real name is Meghan Lovell)
Age: 21
Genre: Pop
Instrument: Headset mic
Background: Melody always knew that she would be a singer, a Pop Princess ranked alongside the greats like Britney Spears, Katy Perry, and the like. Sadly, her voice was not quite powerful enough to carry her through the qualifying rounds to becoming a Pop Champion (referred to as Idols). Disenfranchised but still hopeful, when the call went out for members of a sort of resistance movement, Collaboration, she heeded the call, eager to show the Idols what she was truly made of!

So! Any questions, comments, anything?

I'm in, of course! ^~^

@Lady of Mist@Azazaa

Awesome!

I saw Hip-Hop and I was immediately drawn in. Any room for me?

Yep, plenty of it! ^~^

I'm gonna bump this....
Bump! ^~^

Interested, maybe as a jaded old goat. How long has this musical stuff been around?

@Ghost Queen

Not exactly sure.... If you send the GM (Karl) a PM then I'm sure he'd be glad to answer! Maybe not exactly old, but middle aged might be alright! ^~^

But if you want, I'll just make sure he responds to your question on here!

@Ghost Queen

For the purposes of the story, the Omega Amp was invented about 70 years ago, and didn't see widespread use (re:Weaponization) until about 65 years ago. The Genres officially took over the world about 50 or so odd years ago.

Like I said in the intro, the people behind Locksley Records remember what it was like before the Genres took over, so you could imagine that some of the senior staff have been around for 50 or more years at least.

Any other takers? .3.

A bit of bumperpool. I really want to see this idea succeed.

I'm lovin' this! Consider me in (if that's cool w/ y'all).
