In this role play, you will be playing an amalgamation of you and someone else or an alteration of yourself. Normally it's a fandom character or something of your own imagination. This will be an adventure-based story and inspiration will be drawn from Yakushoku Distpiari - Gesellschaft Blume, The Rising of the Shield Hero, Rave Master and Black Clover. Specifics regarding the plot will be worked out in the thread before everything officially starts.
Introduction
Welcome! I'd like to inform you that you, have died. It’s unimportant how. Well, unimportant for the bigger picture, but I guess it is pretty important for you, eh? What can I say, tough luck? But let’s not dawdle on depressing things! You have died and just as you were expecting a dark tunnel with a white light at the end, you are confronted with a peculiar message:
“GAME OVER. RESTART IN ANOTHER WORLD?”
The whole thing looked like it was taken from the video games you used to play, except for the question about restarting in another world. What's with that? Shouldn’t it say “restart at the last checkpoint”? Hm, guess not. Right bellow the question there were two buttons: [YES] and [NO].
Naturally, you're going to choose yes. Why? Because this story needs you to! How do you expect me to lead this story if you decide you are fine with being dead? Stay on the rails! I mean, on figurative rails, not real ones, because then you’ll probably just die again. Unless you're some sort of superhero. Which you may very well become in this new world we’re going.
Just as you press [YES], a new message replaces the old:[/font]
“PLEASE CREATE YOUR CHARACTER.
[OK]”
Now, what the hell does that mean?! Aren’t you already created? Your mom and dad worked hard at it too! Does this reincarnation system want to pick a fight with you!?! You are perfect the way you are, they said so at school! A special little snowflake!
Hmmm, but are you sure you are perfect? Maybe you wanted to be a little slimmer, a tad taller or you might be unhappy with your gender? Be honest, I won’t judge. Sorry, I will, but I can promise you that I'll keep everything confidential. My lips are sealed!
Here’s your chance to fulfill all of those fantasies, except the particularly weird and perverted ones. This isn't the place for those. So press that [OK] button and let us dive in this fantasy world filled with magic, adventure and annoying anime tropes!
As you press the [OK] button colors explode around you. What was previously a pitch black void of death was now dyed in a cloudy combination of white and blue. Message telling you to create your character was gone and in it is place some kind of form appeared before you. It took only a quick glance to realize what it was.
A Character Sheet:
[Appearance]
Name: This one is simple. Write down the name by which you want to be known in this world. You can pick your Earth name, but that would be boring. Nobody likes boring people. Gender: Are you a boy or a girl? Maybe neither? Or both? Hey, it’s a fantasy world, you can find all kinds of stuff. Background: Tell us about yourself. What did you do in your Earthly life? How do you feel about your death? What are your plans for the future?
Level: This is your character level. As you do stuff you grow more powerful and it reflects in your level. You start at level 1. Class: Hey, it’s a fantasy role-play, it just wouldn’t be right without class system! What, you don’t like class system? Filthy commie! Don’t worry too much: you make your own class and it has no actual influence on your development, its purpose is descriptive. Race: Similarly to the Class field, you make up your own race. Now you can be that extraterestrial transgender leprechaun you always wanted to be! Isn’t that great?
Abilities: You have 5 points to spend on techniques, spells, skills or traits. During the course of the RP, you'll get both more abilities.
Equipment: You’re dead. You got nothing. Nothing! But you may acquire things on your journey around the world, so this field here is where you’ll list all weapons, armours and other such items in your possession.
[FINALIZE]
Now that you pressed [FINALIZE], you have officially made your character. Or, better say, remade yourself. Congratulations! Now, our journey can begin. Fasten your seat belts, because we are about to land! Reincarnation world, here we come!
Once again, light explodes and you get engulfed by a rainbow-colored whirlpool. A sudden feeling of being launched downwards possesses you and the instinctive fear of falling forces you to scream. As you look bellow you the myriad of colors clear and an unfamiliar landscape began rapidly approaching you. Your eyes water from the speed, making you unable to properly inspect the features of the world around you. Not that you’d have enough composure to do it anyway, as your destination became clear: a gray, rocky mountainside. You show no signs of stopping as you draw closer and closer until finally you hit the mountain’s surface at full force, exploding from sheer force of the impact into a spectacle of gore...
That didn’t happen. Before you collided with the surface, either out of fear or something else, you lose your consciousness and darkness envelops your mind.
For now, there will be no character limit, but applications will follow a certain level of strictness; this is due to my need for cleanliness, uniformity, and aesthetics when it comes to characters.
I've never seen a roleplay introduction done like this! It feels really immersive and gives lots of potential! I'll definitely fill out a character sheet soon, when I have the chance.
Yes, sir. Each would cost a point. As far as the weapons go, sure thing. As long as it fits your overall theme which would be interpreted in the Class section of your sheet.
@Gilgex Point allocation would be relative to milestones reached in the story and certain achievements done by your characters. There will be other instances but I hope that answers your question.
