Evangelion is one of my favorite animes and I really want to try to get a RP started. If you don't know anything about the show still show an interest. I have some background information below.

Now, in short, Neon Genesis Evangelion is an anime dating from the mid-nineties that is among the most influential in history, changing the face of anime forever. The original was completely incredible. and the Rebuild films are, by some margin, my favourite films ever made (as well as being my favourite anime). Seriously, if you haven't seen Rebuild, watch it! Although you mightn't want to do that just yet, so you can hold off a minute. So, a guide on terminology and general things about the series.









There are many worlds, and some run parallel. This is one such world. In this world, Rei, Shinji and Asuka never existed. Instead, there was another group of EVA pilots. Another group who stood between mankind and utter destruction as the world slowly began to burn around them. This is their story.

Now, as you may have gathered, this is an Alternate History of Neon Genesis Evangelion; one way of putting it would be that it's our own version of the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. That is, so to speak, the same basic events, but the changes in character lead to different outcomes, and ultimately, a divergent plotline. However, the key difference here is that we've completely changed the characters. In short, Shinji, Rei, Asuka, Gendo, Misato and every other character in the series never existed - they may have parallels, but that's it. However, there are other changes, and some things have stayed the same. A short list:

Differences:

-As mentioned above, ALL of the characters are different. Some will have parallels (for instance, the EVA pilots will have an equivalent to Misato, and there will be a director at NERV to replace Gendo), but none will appear in this RP for any reason.
-The EVAs will be different; they will share the numerical designations of canon EVAs, but will appear completely differently, and may have completely different backstories and purpose. For example, Unit 02 may not be for physical combat it may be for long range weaponry.
-EVA's do not have to be plugged in at all times to function. They have a 12 hour battery life, and are always charging when not in a mission.
-SEELE does not exist, however there is a SEELE counter part. This PERSON wants the destruction of all humanity, in order for Humans to reach the next level of evolutoon

Similarities:
-All Angels are the same
-All organizations are the same, Except SEELE
-The Vatican Treaty is in affect, meaning limited spaces available

Is anyone interested? I need at least 2, NOT including me.

I like the idea of a small Eva game, but I'm not sure about some of the things being changed and some of the things not being changed. I mean, using original Angels would probably give the fights more tension, since only the GM would know what they are capable of. I'd also prefer the 5 minute limit for the plugs, but that's just personal preference.

Also, while I wouldn't recommend switching over to playing it, the tabletop game Adeptus Evangelion probably has tons of ideas for an Eva RP amongst all the dice stuff you can just ignore. I don't know what you have planned, but some extra ideas and inspiration wouldn't hurt.

So I suppose I'm kind of interested.

Yeah, that's going to bite me in the ass when I fail to get a sheet together in time.

Sweet well I'll put up an OOC. I have to go back to work in a bit, so I'll make my character when we I get home.
