Peace. It's a word that not many people have experienced in life. A word that many don't truly understand. But peace is the only thing that the people of Arysium know. Cut off from the rest of the world, the people of Arysium have lived in a very quiet and unaffected world full of prosperity, their technology evolving rapidly past all of the filth and pollution and into a new future for them all. It wasn't until the last century or two that they really found out what strife was. The first of what was to be called "Meta-Humans" was born around that time, now referred to as 0-P.R., or Post- Revelation. A man with a broken mind, he used his power over fire in an attempt to seat himself as the king of the lands. He was stopped in his tyrannical pursuit by another, a young boy who proved invulnerable to the blaze. A deep fear creeped into the populace... Now, in the year 223PR, the population of Metahumans is at an all time low. An all-human corporation known as Helios has provided the people of Arysium with protection. Their robots patrol all over, keeping them safe. Helios provides them with food, medicine, water, and even shelter. But what could they need protection from? The Revolution. Metahuman "terrorists" who would destroy us all if we let them... Or so the good people at Helios would say. If the people knew that Helios was gathering up Metas and reporting a "drop in birth rate", maybe they wouldn't call it a revolution. There are those who oppose the corporate rule of Helios, those who hide and strike out against the tyrant. The Freedom Fighters need help if they are ever going to gain the rights they deserve. The question is: who will you choose to side with? Will it be Oppression? Or Freedom?

Okay, hopefully you've read the bit of history I put up there for you. This is an idea I had that I really wanted to share with others. I'm hoping that we get a decent roster of people here. Locations contain but are not limited to: 1. Arcadia: the literal center of the world. Arcadia is a massive city, with a bustling population. Anything can be made or found here, and it is the home of Helios. 2. Emerald Coast: rolling hills, grassy plains, and white sand beaches command the landscape south where small towns and families tend to sit. The Freedom Fighters main base is hidden amongst the landscape. 3. Scorching Sands: A desert landscape to the west where people are few and far between. Many of Helios' testing is done here. 4. The Sea of Trees: A massive forest to the north and east that houses many climates. Slowly shrinking due to deforestation, but still imposing. Thins out towards the southern side and merges with Emerald Coast. 5. Skyreach: The northern mountain range that dominates the land. It's snow covered peaks and heights provide Helios with the perfect place to conduct their experiments unseen. 6. Mount Brimstone: a craggy, treacherous landscape that culminates into a volcanic ridge. Inactive for some time, be careful not to leap head first into its fiery depths. I want our world to expand as it progresses, so please share your ideas with me as we go along. I'm part player, part narrator for this story, and anyone who wishes to assist is most welcome. Now, for the rules: 1. Please refrain from God modding. I'll allow practically any powers and abilities, but let's keep it legitimate. Just play fair and keep it clean. 2. Ask me before charting out huge chunks of the world. We can't just throw fortresses or explosions everywhere. 3. Anything goes. You can do almost anything unless told otherwise. 3 1/2. viva la revolution in character sheets. 4. It's probably better to keep it PG-13 ish. Any other questions, please ask me! And... Character sheets will be on the Characters Tab.

Yes. Although not many people in the world would remember it, and they would group a magic user with the metahumans.

Why is Rule #1 after Rule #3.5? NUMBERS! So this place is shut off from the rest of the world? So what IS the rest of the world? And how is it shut off from it? Did Helios create a really big wall? This seems interesting, so I'm definitely joining.

I left it a mystery because people generally have avoided leaving and finding out, as well as it leaves room for expansion if we get that far. Helios generally discourages leaving. I really hope we do.

Right, I'm all for expansion in narratives. I think ima make two diametrically opposed characters, and see what happens. Although it seems this isn't getting the attention it deserves, which I think is a shame.

Yay, new people! Hopefully we'll be able to gather a decent roster. Any idea of how many characters you'd like to have before we start?

I'd like at least four or five of us, maybe two characters each if everyone is fine with that. I'm making my second character tonight probably.

Hmm. I might make a magic user and re-work Rhyss for the freedom fighters. If I'm not mistaken there isn't a leader for them yet? I might see about Rhyss if thats ok..

If you or anyone would like to lead the FF, we can decide on it. My FF character is going to be a roamer, more than likely he'll need convinced to join them. He's mostly going to be on the run.

> GJ. Thinking up a character, what are the limits on magic powers? Nothing, really. Just don't abuse it or make it unfair to everyone else. Play fair and you can do whatever you want.

So, I can have multiple kinds and aren't limited to one class of mage per say? EDIT: Not planning on making him mega OP, but I don't wanna be limited to fireballs or something similar.
