"...."
The girl slowly, quietly, rose to her feet. Her small size and soft features hid the nature of the being that she truly was. Her manner of dress, an elegant kimono with frills around the sleeves and base, rustled as she stood. It was before her, the vastness of that which she was meant to protect. And yet... it no longer was hers. Not anymore. The events that had been set in motion all those years ago were finally coming to fruition. She sighed. The girl knew this would happen eventually. It was something she knew the whole span of her existence.
... And yet...
She did not wish to accept it. She did not wish to stand by and simply await the end. This was the way of things. She existed in hopes of stopping it entirely, and yet she was prepared for failure. For her power to vanish. And yet she could not stand by... even with her power waning, she would not stand by.
The floor beneath her shimmered, and suddenly it was transparent. The blue planet below... Earth.
No, she would not stand by. Just because she could no longer fight this herself did not mean she could not find another way.
Tsukuyomi prepared herself.
Humanity, as a whole, has long been unaware of what lay beyond their sight. And yet, twenty years ago, something happened. Something terrible. The experimentation of Angeltech, the discovery of not only humans with psychic abilities, but of the supernatural, mystical ability known as Archetype, lead to the discovering of a true horror. As a group dedicated to the furthering of both humanity and technology, Angeltech could not allow such discoveries to pass without utilizing them to their full potential. However, they kept them secret, unsure if the population at large was ready for such things. They experimented in secret. And it was in this way that they learned. Angeltech discovered something horrible, an existence that symbolized one thing only: The completeness and utterness of Death. Not simply the death of people, but the death of everything.
The tried to contain their discovery. They could not let the true horror of its existence escape to the rest of humanity, but even after they managed to fragment it, a terrible process had been set in motion. Creatures, terrible monsters, they were brought into existence by the very beginning of this process. All Angeltech could do was begin work to combat it.
It is now a matter of days until the process set in motion twenty years ago finally ends. At Himawari High School, a new exchange student arrives. Another student notices they can perceive the unusual. Rumors of a strange girl in traditional dress, a frilled kimono, even, have spread through the student body. And far darker rumors of monsters stalking the night have spread, too...
So, um, this is trying something a little different! To start with, there are nine "roles" to fill in this RP. Each character must fit into one of these roles and follow any rules associated with them(only three posses rules). Beyond that, they simply must be in high school or associated with it, as an important part of this RP is bonding with and learning about the other characters in order to band together and cause a miracle that will avert the end.
Role List:
-The Esper: A student that possesses the ability to sense things far beyond what a normal human would be able to do. The Esper's psychic abilities may not be combat related, and they may not be mind reading or mind control. Psychometery, being an empath, reading the presence of others(including monsters), and analyzing monsters via psychic abilities are all allowed(the latter being required). They must attempt to keep their abilities a secret initially, until the characters become aware of the supernatural.
-The Robot Girl: The only role with a predetermined gender, the Robot Girl is a female-programmed mechanical warrior designed by Angeltech to combat the creatures that have come into existence as a result of the process set in motion twenty years ago. She was completed and deployed only a year ago. She is armed with a variety of weapons designed to destroy them and has been enrolled in Himawari High School due to the high density of creature activity in the area. She must attempt to keep her nature a secret, unless it is discovered or she chooses to reveal it.
-The Oldest: They must be the oldest player character.
-The Sporty One: They must be into athletic activities.
-The Otaku: They must be far, far more into anime, manga, and video games then any other character.
-The Gang Leader: They must be the head of a band of delinquents.
-The Hacker: They must be extremely good with computers.
-The Detective: They must be capable at solving mysteries and discovering clues.
-The Witch/Wizard: Rumored to be into some strange things, this character is the only one who will begin with an Archetype.
Note: If I have an overflow of players, I will allow side characters who do not fit one of the nine roles.
Archetypes:
Archetypes are powers drawing on figures from human consciousness. Fairy tales, mythology, they are abilities based on these existences. A human being can develop an archetype naturally, through discovering their existence and gaining the resolve to use such a power for a purpose they believe is important, having it awakening in them through the work of another being with such abilities, or through drug treatments. The final method is unavailable to any of the player characters.
Archetypes are deadly to the creatures that began to appear twenty years ago, capable of utterly destroying them.
Archetypes are often tied to the personality of the person that uses one, the figure they are based on being tied to the personality of the one the Archetype is attached to.
Examples:
The Archetype Gaap would allow teleportation and the ability to use water as a weapon.
The Archetype Surtr would allow the user to gain fire as a weapon.
