Welcome to the Battle. Will You Survive?
In the dystopian future, when America is gone and replaced by an entity only known as the Council, the land mass of America is split into eight sectors, each one being named after their own sector. Each sector had a specific element that is labeled to it. Sector One is Fire, Sector Two is Water, Sector Three is Earth, Sector Four is Air, Sector Five is Weather, Sector Six is Light, Sector Seven is Shadows, and Sector Eight is Animals. These are labeled this way for one specific reason: Leviathans. Leviathans, as they are called, are advanced humans with powers that label with their sectors element. They were placed strategically like this, else they would fight with the others if they were in a different sector, and the Council did not want that.
When the Council took over, they swore that they would end all fighting, but they knew that the human mind and body craved strife. So, as a counterbalance for the animal inside all humans, they created a battle field in which sixteen young adults, leviathans between the ages of eighteen and twenty five, would battle for the amusement of the rest of the nation, to keep the murderous instinct of the mind at bay and the fight or flight mindset down. Not everyone agreed with this, but everyone was forced to do it. No normal humans, those without powers, were chosen to go into the arena. Sixteen would walk into the arena, only one would walk out.
So people would not be training for a specific arena each time, the Council appointed a man would change the arena, a five mile by five mile space with the ability to close in on itself if necessary, every year as the Battle started. This man was called "the Gamemaker". Many people could guess the idea for the next arena, but many were also wrong. Each year the Battle arena is different, but the premise remains the same: Be the best, be the strongest, stay alive.
Already going to answer what you are thinking. Yes, this is a combination of the Hunger Games and X-Men. I hadn’t seen one in a while so I figured it would be fun to create one. I will be jumping on and off and up and about all throughout the fall, as school starts this next week for me as well as marching band has already begun. I will most likely appoint a GM to help in my absence. Secondly, I would like to do a group TitanPad with story arches because not all of us are going to be around each other at a time in the arena. This way, it’ll be easy to keep track of who goes where. I am looking for a Co-GM that will stick with this and help me out with story arches. That would be very helpful. Also, the Gamemaker will be an NPC character controlled only by me or my Co-GM depending on circumstances. I am looking for at least five to eight committed people to START off with, and we'll see if it grows from there.
There's something else I wanted to clarify. I know it seems like this should in the arena RP, but I wanted to do a slice of life portion in the sectors, which is why it's not. Also, it is a bit easier to GM from one of these RPs than from the arena one since I've never done an area RP before.
The Rules
- Your character will most likely die. Get used to it.
- This is a character driven roleplay, so the decisions of the characters will affect the outcome.
- Respect others and please respect me. Leave the drama in leave life. Ain’t nobody got time for that here.
- At LEAST two paragraphs. And decent sized paragraphs! About eight sentences each.
- Depending on how much interest we get will objectify how many characters each person can have. I’m going to say two at the moment, but this is a place holder for now.
- PG-13. Please.
- Good grammar, and good spelling. I am a Grammar Nazi, so you'll help me out a lot by being awesome.
- For Leviathans, the power has to be related to your section. For example, if you're from Sector Two, you can have a power that has anything to do with water, i.e. cryokinesis, aquakinesis, and so on.
