Digimon: As The Lights Fade (Casual Interest Check)

[Shiny Keldeo]

So Recently I Got the Incentive to Create a Digimon RP in the Casual Section, With a Few of My Own Custom Ideas and Such. So I've Been Thinking About the Storyline, Rules, and Other Things and Well, Here they Are.

Plot

As Was Fortold, Evil has Returned to the Digital World Once More. However, this time is different, as the defenders of this world have disappeared from the face of the world. With No One to Protect the Innocent and Just, Evil Quickly Took Hold and Effortlessly Enslaved the Digimon. These were Dark Times.

The Goings On in the Digital World Affected the Human World as Negatively as Well. Important Technology was Malfunctioning, Strange Lights and Figures in the Sky, and People Disappearing. The Governments of the world can provide no explanation for any of these events, and it is beginning to cause panic among the people.

There Was, However, a Small Rebellion of Digimon so Insignificant the Evil Ones Never Took the Time to Take Care of Them, Until they Began to Grow. Across the Digital World, this Rebellion, Known as the "Defenders of the Light", Fought Against the Evil in a Losing Battle.

One day, something changed in the Digital World. A Digimon, the Legendary Alphamon, Returned and attempted to fight off the evil, but it had grown too strong, even for him. He was defeated, and left to digitize. However, he managed to call out to the human world, looking for help to return the Digital World to what it once was, and defeat this evil for good.

Rules

-No Godmodding (That's a Basic Rule for Most RPs)
-No Controlling Other Players or Their Characters
-Death is a Thing, But I'm Enacting the Digiegg Rule for the Digimon.
-Customization Will be Allowed to an Extent, I May Allow a Few Custom Digimon, Just Keep Rule 1 in Mind.
-DigiFusion/Xros, Digimon Data Squad Crap, nor Ancient Spirit Digivolution are Allowed. Armor and Biomerge Shall be Allowed, Along With Warp and Basic Digivolutions.
-At the Very Beginning of the Story, You Have No Idea that Digimon or the Digital World Exists, or What it is Like.
-If You Want a Double Digimon Pairing, Just Say So In Your Post and I'll Look at It.

If Interested, Leave a Comment/Application Below. If We Get Enough, I'll Start the Actual Roleplay!

Only Accepting 10 Max Roleplayers, Sorry. 6/10 CS' Approved, One Pending, 3 Slots Open. Will Be Starting the New RP Later Today, So Be Ready Everyone!

[tobiax]

Might be interested. Although I feel like if you're allowing customized Digimon, you may want to make a Digimon CS, so that you can see which Techniques the player is using for their respective Digimon, as well as what the customs look like and such, so we have an idea beforehand and no one tries anything sneaky. And this is just my opinion, but an area for things like the Digimon's personality might be helpful too?

[Decker126]

This sounds pretty interesting. I'd like to give it a shot.

[vancexentan]

I'll give a tentative interest in this. I don't know all too much about digimon as it's been awhile since i've seen it but i know enough to be a decent player. I intend to have an andromon line.

[Shiny Keldeo]

@tobiax Thanks for the Input, That Actually is a Pretty Cool Idea, I'll Get Working on that when I can.

@Decker126@vancexentan Thanks for the Interest, I'm still making some changes, but you guys can make a CS if you want too.

[Avanhelsing]

Sure. Why not. My knowledge of the series goes to about 02 but I can learn quickly. I will figure something out for my sheet. ALSO DIBS ON TERRIERMON as rookie.

Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Terry

Bio: Terry has always been your average kid for most of his life. He never really stood out except for his odd habit of punching bullies for some reason. He sees it as his job to protect those who cannot protect themselves and he has a mean right hook. However Terry is now the new kid in town since his family moved a month ago. Now he has no idea what is going on around him but is still trying to make a few friends.
Personality/Traits:Friendly, Outgoing, protective of his friends no matter what
Digimon: Fresh: Zerimon In-Training: Gummymon Rookie: Terriermon, Champion: Gargomon Ultimate: Rapidmon Mega MegaGargomon (Biomerge) , DNA (NONE right now)

[Shiny Keldeo]

Post Updated:
-Added to "Plot"
-Added to "Application"
-Added "Custom Digimon"
-Added to "Example/My Application"
-Added "Custom Digimon"

@Avanhelsing Looks Good, If You Don't Have a DNA Or Armor Digivolution You Don't Have to Include Those in Your Digimon. Also, Looks Like Your the First Biomerge to Apply, and I Like Terriermon Too, Ever Since "Hurricane Touchdown".

[Avanhelsing]

@Shiny Keldeo

Honesty time: I had to look up the Hurricane thing. I knew the American Digimon movie was cobbled from three different movies but I never knew the name.

[Shiny Keldeo]

@Avanhelsing Lol It's Cool, Not Many Know all the Japanese Digimon Movie Titles. And the American Digimon Movie Was Really Cobbled Together From Three Movies, Which Made it Terrible. The Dub was Bad and They Cut Out a Lot Of Important Scenes, and that Stupid Diaboromon Virus Infecting Chocomon... Which had Literally Zero Connection in the Original.

[vancexentan]

Name: Derrick Quinn
Age: 14
Gender: Male

Appearance: Derrick is a short male of average build and size. he doesn't have much in the way of muscle and is rather unfit. He wears glasses though he can see decently without them. He has grey eyes, white skin, brown hair.

Bio: Born in New Jersey young Derrick grew up with his parents and grand parents in a large home. He was taught the meaning of staying true to one's goals by his grand father who had fought in a war long ago. Derrick's younger live left him with the urge to tinker with and learn how to use technology of all sorts as his father was a technician and his mother was the head of a government funded lab allowing him easy access to all sorts of outdated or new technology that his parents let him have. His grand father taught him how to defend himself and all sorts of camping and survivalist things while out camping. Though he preformed averagely at school he was actually fairly intelligent and knew how to get things done. He joined the boy scout's of America before leaving out of personal choice.

He spends most of his time now of days reading technology manuals and figuring out how to tinker with all sorts of new gadgets and when he isn't doing that he is out with his own group of friends doing all sorts of things together in arcades or just messing around. He is also a frequent user of the internet.


Personality/Traits:

Bold but polite Derrick is older in spirit than most kids his age. He acts responsibly and likes to think things through before doing them though he does have times when he is simply fascinated by things and acts before he considers the consequences. He absolutely adores dogs and finds them great companions. He has a deep interest in how things work and why they work. He is honest and hates to lie about anything or to anyone unless he has too and is a very bad liar when he has too. He has an indomitable spirit that keeps him from giving up on things easy. Though he can be serious he prefers to be a free spirit that takes whatever comes at him with vigor and pride not letting chances go by. Though he doesn't like fights he's not afraid to pull his punches.

[tobiax]

@Shiny KeldeoWhy thank you. Oh, and just for narrative cohesion and to avoid any confusion, you may want to... perhaps, have everyone have the same style Digivice, (unless there's some reason for it to be different story wise) even if it's some custom design for this story, or looks like something specific, like handheld Tetris (as a joke example). And, again, for the sake of the narrative, maybe, (again, unless there's some special reason that doesn't feel tacked on) that the method to reaching the Mega Form is all the same, perhaps your favorite one? Or at least give the option for alternates, like standard Digivolve Megas and Biomerge Megas, so there's at least a bridge between the player characters, and some choose to or don't manage Biomerge for some reason, while some only have it figured out, and not standard/warp. Just my thoughts.

[Shiny Keldeo]

@vancexentan You Don't Have an Armor Digimon, So You Don't Need the Digiegg of Loyalty. Also, If You Did Have One, that Trait is Taken...

[vancexentan]

Alright i deleted the digiegg.

[Forsythe]

Interested. I got my eyes on black pawnchessmon line =)

[Pyromania99]

Oh my, Familiar faces here. Still got room?

[Shiny Keldeo]

@Pyromania99 I'm Going to Allow Maximum of 10 Players for this RP, But I'll Probably Start When I Have 5 Character Sheets Including My Own.

[Forsythe]

How does this look?

Nonna

”There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance.” - John C. Maxwell

Name: Nonna Anatolyevna Ivanova
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Nationality: Russian
Appearance:
Nonna is an average looking woman, circa 173 centimeters tall. Coming from the cold Siberia, her complexion is fairly pale. The girl weighs around 70 kilograms, yet doesn’t look overweight, but rather imposing with her gymnastic figure.

Her face is quite angular, dominated by her icy blue eyes and snow blond hair that reaches below her shoulders. She doesn’t like to wear makeup as her hobbies leave her sweating profusely more often than not and it would just be a bother.

She likes to wear clothes that display her social class in some manner, yet are utilitarian in nature. Most often her winter clothes would be lined up with fur rather than synthetic materials, but keep enough pockets and easily cleaned outer material.

She carries herself straight, whipped out by her athletic hobbies, military family background and a good dose of pride. She seems aloof, as even when she smiles her lips barely arch up. It’s hard for her to just stand still and she often chooses to pace instead, do something with her hands or at least chew a gum.

History:
Nonna is the daughter of an English fashion designer and a Russian officer. Despite being of mixed descent and having some of the English patronizing bigotry in her blood, she considers herself Russian as that is where she grew up.

Never being short for money, Nonna lived the life of luxury. She had however many expectations put into her, as the only heir to both the clothes company and to her father’s military tradition that reached as far back as the Tsars. She could never shake the feeling that her father would have liked to have a son as a firstborn instead, but despite that she succeeded in overcoming every challenge he put in front of her, even considering enlisting in the military rather than going to the UK to a business academy that would prepare her for the other half of her inheritance.

Personality:
Due to her upbringing, Nonna is well mannered and won’t shy from a conversation with anyone. That however doesn’t mean you are going to like what she says to you. She is downright cold most of the time, but under the ice is a heart. Normal people and their problems don’t interest her as much, but if you have something special or even unique about you, she just might come talk to you.

Her friends she considers family and will do much for them, but if you get on her bad side, you’ll find out why Stalingrad still strikes fear to the hearts of Germans to this day. Her biggest flaw and yet a strength would be her pride.

In her free time, she likes to equally engage both her body and her mind. A bit 'damaged' by her family's social status, she is slightly above the amusement of the 'peasants', choosing a bit eccentric - and expensive - hobbies.

She treats Pawnchessmon with respect and as an equal partner, both of them striving to be the best they can be. They both would have liked it better if they could do that on their own, but they grudgingly acknowledge their partnership makes both of them much stronger.

Skills:
Fencing: Nonna has been training her swordsmanship since her early teens, becoming rather proficient with the weapon.
Tactician: Trained by chess, poker and with knowledge of military, Nonna can usually come up on top of statistically stronger opponents due to her admittedly ruthless plans.

Equipment:
Whenever she passes into the digital world, she appears with a sword with the scabbard held on her belt. Her digivice can be attached to the sword’s hilt, with the buttons sticking out of the grip and the display on the crossguard. The digivice is jet black with silver trim.

Trivia:

• Voice actor: Marina Devyatova
• Theme: Youtube
• She is disgusted by anything lower than a fish on the evolution scale and downright scared of spiders.
• Nonna always keeps her hands and mouth busy.
• She speaks fluent English albeit with a thick accent, but when zoning out or under strong emotion, she tends to slip back to Russian.

Relationships:
TBD

Pawnchessmon

Species: Pawnchessmon (Black)
Apparent gender: Female
Appearance: See the wiki link
Personality:
Pawnchessmon is a rather silent character, preferring to let the much more self confident Nonna to do the talking. Her faceless appearance also doesn't exactly help, and she could be mistaken for a statue for most of the time.

She is fiercely loyal to Nonna, to the point of following her and her commands even if she doesn't agree with them, because she considers her partner to be the 'king' piece on the board. Also, as a digimon taking on characteristics of a footman, she doesn't have too many qualms with using deadly force.

Her own ambitions are obstructed in mystery even to her partner, but she chose Nonna because she believes the girl can give her the strength to become the queen - the most powerful piece on the board.

In her later digivolutions, Pawnchessmon's moral compass starts improving, although as she enters the ranks of chess nobility, she isn't able to acquire black and white look on the world, relishing in intrigues and tricking her opponent. She does however get the strong urge to protect her own side in the conflict. When biomerged with Nonna as Queenchessmon, she is a very formidable opponent, strong both in body and in mind, and completely unforgiving of anything and anyone who crosses her path or touches anything dear to her.

Attacks:

• Pawn Spear: Stabs with her spear.
• Pawn Buckler: Charges with her buckler held up.
• Pawn Lightning: Fires a shockwave with a lightning fast strike.
• Vpered!: Pawnchessmon’s first move is made at double its normal speed.
• En passant: When Pawnchessmon’s opponent charges into their first attack, she gains a burst of speed to dodge it and strike the enemy from behind.
• Promotion: Pawnchessmon gains mega-class power for a single strike, provided she is located behind the target’s back. This depletes her power completely and resets her into an In-training if the target is an Armor digimon, Champion or Ultimate, or to a fresh if the target is a Mega or DNA digimon.

Digivolution line:

• Fresh: Metalkoromon
• In-training: Kapurimon
• Rookie: Pawnchessmon (Black)
• Champion:Knightchessmon (Black)
• Dark Champion: Mekanorimon
• [Crest] Ultimate: Rookchessmon (Black)
• Dark ultimate: Gigadramon
• [Biomerge] Mega: Queenchessmon
  
  • Where the regular version has pink trim Nonna’s has blood red color.
  • Instead of the heart motives, this variant has skulls.
  • Rather than a cricket stick, this one carries a lance.
• Dark mega: Chaosdramon

Trivia:

• Voice actor: Emily Marie Neves
• The Mon never seems to get easy, always standing in attention and alert even when asleep.

Relationships:
TBD

[Shiny Keldeo]

@Forsythe When You Enter the Digital World (At Least in this RP) You Will Gain Nothing from the Digital World, Reminiscent of the Original Digimon. You Will Not Be Able to Enter and Leave the Digital World at Will as You Could in 02. You Only Have What You Take With You. Also Keep in Mind that You Have no Clue the Digital World Exists, or that Digimon Exist.

Otherwise, I See No Problem With This App. I'm Very Lenient on Fresh and In-Training Digimon, So Those are Fine. Just Everyone Make Sure Not To Double Up on Any Other Stages Than That.

And One Last Thing for Everyone, I Have Decided to Basically Combine all Three Digivices into One, I Don't Have a Design for it yet though, so just put the color of it. It Will be Capable of Standard, Warp, Armor, DNA, and Biomerge Digivolutions.

[Pyromania99]

Does it matter where the characters are from? Just want to know so I can make sure I set this character is up to the way she needs to be. Err, I guess more of where they are currently.

[Shiny Keldeo]

@Pyromania99 Doesn't Matter Where They Come From TBH, They All Have the Same Destinies, So Nothing Will Change That.
