"In a Civil War, there is no winner. Both sides have lost, as they are the same side, pitted against one another. Is that a life we want to live?"
The Digital World
The Digital World was once a peaceful realm, where the Digimon lived under the protection and governing of a group known as The Council of Five. Comprised of the most powerful known Digimon, they ruled with a just hand, and would fight to the last breath to protect their world.
However, the leader of the council knew that they would not be enough to protect their world forever. After speaking with the Harmonious Ones, the leader learned the fate of many other Digital Worlds that existed, cast into darkness until freed by the light of Chosen Humans, creatures from a world parallel to their own.
The leader of the council then decided to follow a similar path, and began to craft several devices that would be sent into the realm of humans at the time of their need. The council agreed on the course of action, save for one. Susanoomon. He believed that Digimon are strong enough to protect their own world on their own. As time passed, he became disillusioned with the council.
The day came when the Council's plan neared completion, but Susanoomon would have it no longer. He cut ties with the council, and sparked a Civil War between the Digimon and their ideals. As the war reached the remaining council, they knew now was the time, and initiated their plan, sending the numerous devices into the Human World, before turning to face their former ally.
Today the Digital World has changed. Following the Defeat of the Council at the Hands of Susanoomon, it was divided into 50 Sectors. Civil War still rages, with those who follow the council struggling to combat against those who side with Susanoomon...
"United we stand, divided we fall, reunited we are undefeatable."
Factions of the Digital World
The Digital Army
The largest faction in the Digital World, they fight for Susanoomon, the one who turned on the Council and began the Digital Civil War. They are filled with powerful Digimon, ranging from Rookie to Mega and those in between. Betrayal is met with swift punishment, and often execution by Susanoomon himself. This group despises the Humans, and seek to capture, or destroy, any who they find.
The Resistance of Light and Hope
The smaller of the main warring factions in the Digital Civil War, this group remains loyal to Alphamon, leader of the Council of Five, and the Council. They believe that the Humans possess something that will save their world, and want to protect that power with their lives. Their goal is to defeat Susanoomon and their forces, and to find the Humans brought to their world.
The Neutrals
These are Digimon that refuse to fight in the Digital Civil War. They have refused to choose a side, and live out their lives as normally as possible in the different sectors of the Digital World. However, many times push comes to shove, and they are forced to pick a side. Although both the Digital Army and Resistance acknowledges their neutrality, there is little they can do when conflict finds them.
The Unknowns
These are Digimon that hold no allegiances to the Digital Army, nor the Resistance, but still actively participate in the Digital Civil War. Their ambitions are unknown, and little is known about who they serve.
"Some take it upon themselves to do what they cannot. It is only after they have seen past the lie that they can see the truth of the situation."
The Humans
The Humans chosen were chosen for a reason, for traits that each possessed. Because of this, they were brought to the Digital World and bestowed a device known as a Digivice. The device would turn into the color that best suited the trait that they possessed and were chosen for. How they used that trait, and sometimes discovered it for themselves, would be up to them to decide.
As for partners, there was not time to create Digimon suited for them, so they would have to find a Digimon who shared their feelings. Sometimes, with a little help from the Harmonious Ones, it would not be as difficult as it seemed. Only together could the Humans free the Digital World from its darkness.
Rules and Guidelines
Try and keep things PG. Cursing/Swearing is allowed, but keep it low on graphic sequences.
Drama IC is acceptable to an extent. Drama OOC is not acceptable and should be taken to a PM.
Death of characters is a REAL possibility. It doesn't just have to be due to inactivity, any character at any time could be killed for any reason, so be aware of the situation!
I'd personally like to stick to basic Digivolutions (Standard, Warp, DNA), and staying away from stranger/special Digivolutions (Armor, Biomerge, Ancient Spirit, Fustion/Xros). However, I may be lenient if the idea is good enough.
While I don't expect immediate posts, posting frequency is a serious factor I consider when accepting RPers. Keep that in mind when posting a Character.
Basic Guild Rules Apply. Remember to be cool like the Fonz.
