Note: This is a reboot of a previous RP I happened to GM several months ago by the time of this post. With the recent announcement of the "MonsterVerse" being a thing with the American Kaiju movies (Pacific Rim, Godzilla 2014, Kong Skull Island, Godzilla 2, Godzilla VS King Kong, Pacific Rim: Uprising, etc), I feel like its a good time for this RP to start back up again. This is a reboot of the same RP as before, with more or less the same ideas and roles. With enough interest (lets say 5 people), I will make the full RP.


(Old Banner Created By Altered Tundra; New One To Be Created By Me)


The year is 2054...


Exactly one century after the Kaiju Era began. It all started back in 1954, after a giant kaiju being, known simply as "Gojira", invaded the bay of Tokyo, Japan, engulfing the entire city in flames and killing hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians. It was said that this giant, hideous, monster was created unintentionally by the detonation of an atomic bomb, and was known as man's bastard "Nuclear Child". It was only after the brave effort by scientist Dr. Serizawa, while using a powerful weapon called the "Oxygen Destroyer", was when Godzilla was ultimately defeated, turning him into nothing more but an empty skeleton. But while doing so, it also intentionally takes the life of both the scientist and the secrets of the Oxygen Destroyer. The world breathed a sigh of utter relief, many of us thinking that they would never have to worry about such a threat again...

WE WERE WRONG.

In fact, this marked the age of the Kaiju, monstrous beings that rose from the depths of the ocean or from unseen lands far from civilization. And yet... these figures have been seen taking the forms of US, the forms of humans! These beings have been called "Kaiju Gijinka" or simply "Monster Humanoids", supernatural humans that have unique alien-like abilities and are able to transform into giant several story tall monsters! These beings come in all different shapes and sizes, along with different abilities, origins, and motives. Some kaiju have been seen to protect Earth from threats of the unknown, with some even protecting humans from harm, while some come with a thirst for power and destruction, some coming from the depths of space itself. And yet, even they can turn into one of us, walk amongst us, and on certain occasions, fight for us. Earth is now a new playground for these figures of intense power and destruction... and we, the human race, are no longer the dominant species on this Earth.

But that doesn't mean we can fight back. Major powers all over the world have banned together, setting aside all our differences, on simply to protect cities throughout the world from getting trampled over by these beings of mass destruction. To fight monsters, we created monsters of our own. From human-piloted mechs, to size-changing androids, we have invested much into keeping humanity safe and sound. And not just our cities... but the entire world. Today we face the monsters that are at our door and bring the fight to them!





Welcome to "MonsterVerse - A Kaiju-Gijinka RP", a roleplay based off the giant monster films and animations from Japan and beyond, turning them into shapeshifting humans. Here you have the chance of making characters, whether they be a Kaiju shapeshifter, a mecha android, or even a human working alongside them as a scientist, pilot, or anything else you can imagine! This world can be considered as one massive playground, with multiple scenarios, missions, and episode arcs taking place all around the world.

I'm pretty sure you guys know the rules, but of course, allow me to plant the ground rules in case you are new or simply happen to forget:


  • Respect: Always respect your fellow players! Keep any major disagreements to the PMs.
  • No Godmodding: Pretty straight forward, don't have your character do an action or series of actions that are without limits, and that they seem to avoid injury no matter what, can land every attack and so forth.
  • No Autohitting: The act of making an attack of yours automatically connect with another player without giving them a chance to react, respond, or attempt a dodge, again very simple.
  • No Powerplaying: Don't operate anyone else's character without their consent.
  • No Speedposting: Please wait two more posts from someone else before you can post again.
  • Posting Length: This is a casual roleplay, not a free one. That means I do expect a good amount of effort when making your post. Two paragraphs are the least one can do. Also, I would like people to post at least twice a week, preferably more but I understand people get busy. If you'll be unable to post for a few days, just let me, the GM, know.
  • Questions: If you have any questions, ideas, and whatnot, feel free to ask me. If you can't continue to be in this RP due to various situations, please let me know before leaving. We don't want to feel left in the dark in these situations.
  • And lastly: HAVE FUN!

@Lmpkio Oh my goodness thank you for this glorious RP set before us, merciful Ghidorah our scaly god.

Would I be able to reserve a canon Kaiju, such as Mothra?

I'm not 100% but I may have been apart of the original RP, either way this looks pretty cool.

I am very interested in this rp! I love Godzilla and giant monster movies, and I feel like this would be so much fun.

I would love, if possible, to play as Cthulhu. I believe he would be counted as either an alien or as a Kaiju. If you don't like that idea, I can easily pick King Ghidorah to play as.

Cthulu sounds better as an antagonist boss more than a playable character (I mean he's incredibly strong damnit), but Ghidorah is free to use.

Looks like 2 - 3 people have confirmed to join the RP so far. We need at least two more if we want to bring this RP up on its feet. Who else is interested?

@Lmpkio I just couldn't wait for the OOC to post this. I think I'll also make an alien Kaiju antagonist, but regardless, I'm glad on how this CS came out.

A kinda proof of concept, if the abilities sound off towards the end there it's because I'm barely firing off at half a braincell here it's so late.

Based the general character idea off of Commander Farsight and I feel like he'll fill out the rouge niche since we have two "Fighters" ,in Godzilla and Gypsy Danger, and Mothra kinda fills out the Mage position.

@Pathfinder Now all we need is a Nurgle-infested King Ghidorah for tank position.

@Lmpkio

Hey, quick question. Would I be allowed to play as the Dragon Zord from the original Power Rangers? I was rewatching the trailers for the new movie, and I'm feeling a little nostalgic lol.
