Everything comes to an end.
Love, hate, betrayal.
The greed of wealth, the lust for power, the comfort in religion.
In the final moment, everyone falls,
even the kings of empires and the princes of darkness.
In the silence of the tomb, we all get what we deserve.


~ Eric Van Lustbader




TL;DR Summary:


  • Set within the God Eater universe, although I do not intend to stick to the lore strictly for the sake of originality and invention; if you're not an utter nerd, that's fine.
  • This takes place in the year 2071. During the events of the first game.
  • We'll be primarily taking on the roles of a Revenant and GE group leader respectively. As well as their companions, --assuming you are comfortable with running multiple characters-- attempting to survive once stranded beyond the reach of the Fenrir organization.
  • The plot will be mostly driven by our characters' journey. There will be an eventual 'endgame', However apart from occasionally steering us towards it. The intention is to simply have fun exploring and building upon the world we are in.
  • Characters from different factions will not have any prior knowledge of each other. We will start with first contact.
  • For simplicity sake; Revenants < God-Eaters < Aragami < Revenants. Rock, Paper, Scissors. Each have their strengths and weaknesses. Revenants are superior physical specimens to God eaters in nearly all respects save intelligence. God-Eaters are capable of easily killing Aragami compared to a Revenant. Aragami can kill Revenants with relative ease. Both can kill the bear, but one's a human with a gun, the other a wolf. Bears are tough.
  • Anything at a casual level or higher is acceptable. If I can read it, and it has substance, then I will probably be content. Just don't send me 'I cast fireball.' as a reply. I will twisted tea you.




Origanally wanted this to be a 1x1 RP, but posting this here to see if there is any group interest.

Well, this is interesting. Though, I do wonder how things would go for god eaters cut off from Fenrir. God Eaters without access to a supply line tend to have well-documented problems once their bias factor meds run out.

Indeed, hence one of the risks to the character(s) and driving plot points, Revenant characters would also suffer from potential frenzy mind you. They will not be able to feed on a god-eater's tainted blood.

Their stranded status is not meant to be a permanent, but instead the group's first universal goal.

That's fair. One could also argue that eating a god eater at least temporarily gives one the same abilities. But even then, in the long term, that's still likely to end up with one very dead revenant.

At least if healing bullets work on revenants, they won't have to worry about dying quite as often. Transfer bullets and burst effects might be a little less useful, though. The real fun of this sort of thing would be doing stuff that doesn't happen in the games but still makes sense, though. God Arcs are mini Aragami, so you can probably use them to cut (or devour) a way through walls and other normal matter, for instance.

I was thinking of it more in the sense that bohr parasites would just flat out destroy aragami cells, making feeding on god-eaters potentially deadly to both parties. With the parasite the revenants are host to instinctively wanting to consume all of the aragami cells in the target's body, it would most likely send them into a mid-feed frenzy and cause them to loose control. Resulting in a butchered god-eater and the creation of a lost. Although the same would apply attempting to feed on an aragami.

They also have all their magic, so while I won't say no to transferring abilities, without some sort of extreme circumstance, attempting this in the field would fail for balance sake. At least at the start. Want all parties to feel balanced in this.

But yes if it makes sense feasibly, with the exception of the above, go for it. :)

I'll be waiting to see if perhaps 1 or 2 more are interested before attempting to move forward with this, if even as a 1x1.

Hopefully a few others turn up. I can't be the only other fan of one or both games on this site.

I'd say, yeah, overall it's a matter of just going with what feels appropriate for the story.

Is this still open? I'm interested to see where this goes.

@NightHawk72j The thread was posted a year ago and the GM has not logged in roughly a year, so I would think that it isn't open.
