______________________________

The year is 2059 and 90% of the Earth's surface is covered by ocean due to global warming and rising sea levels.

Amidst this environmental disaster, A fleet of powerful sentient warships appeared seemingly out of nowhere and
assaulted the navies of the world in the year 2039.

The advanced technology of the hostiles, collectively referred to as the 'Fleet of Fog', made quick work of any opposition.

It was in the year 2049 that a last, desperate offensive was conducted against the Fleet of Fog consisting of a large number of warships from a coalition of nations.

It was a total defeatfor Human fleet and with it came a total air and sea blockade by the Fleet of Fog.

Undersea communications and satellites were also destroyed, cutting off any contact across continents.

Now a full decade since their invasion, a new independent force is stirring up the balance of power.

The Phantom Fleet.

Little information exists about the Phantom Fleet except for the fact that is a small group of FOG ships that have defected, lead by their flagship: Fog Carrier Shinano.

An alternative universe take on the anime: Arpeggio of Blue Steel - Ars Nova, the story of this roleplay revolves around a small group of defector Fog ships, and their human allies, known as the Phantom Fleet. These sentient weapons of war that once simply obeyed all orders are now faced with trying to understand life outside of combat and the customs of humanity. It won't be long until they are forced to fight in order to maintain this existence outside of the Admiralty code, the absolute authority of the Fleet of Fog.

The Phantom Fleet in currently off the coast of Japan where Shinano is considering setting up the first diplomatic meeting between her and the government of Japan. For the past two days, Shinano has been playing music of the great artist, Beethoven, through random radio channels as she collects and processes data. It is a well known fact that sitting in one place for too long is dangerous for the Phantom Fleet, even with its stealth field generator. However, if there is any hope of change for both Humanity and the Fleet of Fog....it lies with the Phantom Fleet.

1. Be kind to other players and do not god-mod your character.

2. A single paragraph is all I ask for, whether you do more is up to you.

3. Real life takes priority. If you can't post for a long time, just tell me and I will understand.

4. Romance is fine. 18+ stuff is not.

5. You can not force another character to do anything without consent.

6. If for some reason your character dies, you can make a new one.


You do not have to know anything about the anime or WWII at all in order to participate. This is a casual RP so my own true requirement is people write in whatever way is most fun so I am not looking for one particular style. There will be battles and fighting so I expect everyone to participate in them, but at the same time do not feel pressured to make a super-complex attack strategy. This is an RP not an RPG so you will not be punished for missing out on a few details. Length is not nearly as important as quality. Everyone has different levels of time and skill and I want everyone from new to experienced writers to feel welcome. If you have any questions, or ideas, please PM me. I will try to respond as quickly as I can. Last, but not least, just have fun being a powerful ship girl.

This just had to pop up when I had to be dealing with important/personal stuff IRL and probably can't take on another RP

I'll keep an eye on this, @Ithradine. I've been working on my own blend of Kantai Collection/Azur Lane/Zhan Jian Shao Nyu for some time, although I've only put some of it to paper recently.

Also, I'll hopefully get a reply to our 1x1 in the next few days.

I hope so. Something happened a few days ago when I decided enough was enough and that I needed to work on distancing myself from it.

Anyway, I don't want to talk up a storm about my personal problems, but I do have a question about the RP.

The only requirements for character creation are that you must pick a historical WWII ship to function as your vessel.

Does this include ships from all the Axis/Allies? I know in the manga there are other ships such as the Bismarck.

Also, what about the Admiralty Code and all that?

You can choose any warship from the Axis or Allies. As for the Admiratly Code, the Phantom Fleet does not abide by it but the Fleet of Fog still does

Ooo... maybe I can play the Abraham Crijnssen, or the O'bannon... or maybe U-511/Ro-500. I'll have to think about it.

I like this. I saw a little of the anime a few years ago and completely forgot about it until now. I'll probably join.

Don’t know much about the anime, but I heard ships and my sailor senses activated. Lt. Sirkaithethird (not about to drop my last name) at your service.

I am honored to have you here, sir!

You are a WWII warship, with lasers and neon colors. That has a girl avatar.

That is the shortest version I can offer.

Everything in the intro is pretty much all you really need to know. If you have a question about a specific thing, then I'll gladly answer.

Great, I’ll do some research, and it seems you’re looking for a capital ship?

Yes. We have a growing quantity of destroyers, and we need other ships to balance everything out. So far we have one carrier, two destroyers (one planned and one already accepted), one destroyer escort and I believe a cruiser of some kind in the works.

Looks like you’ll need a few more destroyers and Crusiers as well, to have a fully rounded fleet. If you’re okay with it I’ll probably take a Scharnhorst Class Battlecruiser/Battleship (has been described as both due to its heavy artillery and size but it’s speed counters that)

Well-rounded fleets are welcomed, but just remember Fog ships are powerful on their own right. They're basically ships with superpowers that can cut through humanity's naval forces with ease, although Fog vs. Fog might be a worthy challenge on its own.

Regarding your ship choice, I don't see anything wrong with it, though I'd imagine you'd need to find a reaason as to why they're off the coast of Japan. Certain ships seem to be concentrated in certain fleets, like the Lexington being in the "Northern America Fleet." Maybe you can check in with @Ithradine about that, but for now, I should really be getting to bed. Been running on fumes for most of the day.

Good night, I’ll figure something out, like a convoy escort that stranded in the pacific or something
