Thinking either Bahamut's "nothingness" domain or Odin's "desolation." I wanna take a superpower culturally perceived as belonging to "good guys" (in my case, healing magic) and have it operate in a mechanically brutal way with a great capacity for cruelty. (I'm basically envisioning a form of time magic, where the subject's physiological and temporal processes can be accelerated or otherwise fucked with so that they are reverted to an unharmed state..... either before they ever got injured at all or long after they've already healed, all in the blink of an eye. Kind of a darker, grittier Crazy Diamond.) Of course, this being basically some kind of "entropy power," she could also rust locked doors off their hinges, hide bodies by withering them to dust (ie. supernaturally advancing their decomposition), etc.

Dunno how "fair" or balanced the powers are gonna have to be in this game so I'm just throwing the concept out there for your quick approval before sinking real time into this ✌️

Either way, very, very cool thread, to which I wish only the best!

@TokyoPewPew

I'm not a GM, but that doesn't seem too crazy. It's technically a time-based mechanic, but it's essentially healing or decay, depending on the situation, right? Orihime's healing from Bleach functioned like that if I remember correctly. But of course, you'll defer to the GM, lol. And as with any power, it's all about balance and never abusing a power in a way that breaks the narrative or takes away another player's agency without permission. That's always my philosophy when it comes to powers at least *insert shrug*

Okay, then I will attempt to join then. I was thinking of either Gilgamesh, Odin or Valefor for a Dominant. Though leaning towards Odin. Like coming from a small, maybe remote rural settlement, who is still obscure. But kinda new to the world given their upbringing and kinda curious about the world, but ultimately reserved and knows that his family does not like the cities for a reason. But still willing to see it for himself and a bit of a scholar.

@Theyra

This is a great concept. Kind of like a fish out of water concept! Those are always fun narratives to explore!

@Aeolian

See, I was thinking leviathan because of the ocean vibes my character is going to have. But if I am to be told that Titan is a 'bro', how can I not have my dudebro be a Titan boi?

Plus I like the idea of a big muscle guy being surprisingly peaceful and down to earth (heh), and well attuned to nature and chillin'

@vietmyke

I 100% support this concept! A big muscular surfer who controls earth is so ironic. And I think your justification of the "Bro" Dominant choosing the most "bro-ish" guy on Libra to be his Regalia makes PERFECT sense!

Feels like a character you'd definitely run into in an actual Final Fantasy game.

@Mirandae

Agreed! FFX Wakka vibes? lol

@vietmyke

That is a great idea! Sounds like he's gonna be a really easygoing guy and a beach babe . A surfer with earth powers. I imagine he'll be kind of annoyed by that, no? lol

Regalia

Yay! Gonna get started on my character. I'd like to reserve the Dream dominant please, Anima! :) @Mirandae

I'm excited for this story to unfold! The Aesthetics so far are immaculate!

Edit: Midjourney AI Wizard also who can help as well if needed! LOL

Hello.

Welcome. I hope you find what you're looking for on here.

Cheers!

Duh. ❤️

Lost History: Lineage

I love dreamy, mystical, magical concepts like this. There's a lot of potential here.

I am officially expressing interest, and I may also be tentatively interested in Co-Gming. I can help out with the character sheet, art, world-building, lore, aesthetics, NPCs, etc.

Cheers!

I can't believe this much time has passed since this. For some reason, this RP did really stick with me and become one of the more memorable ones. One that I had wished would've become more than what it was. It had incredible potential, but even just going as far as we did; for some reason it was still so enjoyable.

@Lionhearted

I won't speak for everyone, but I think most of us feel the same way about the Bleak series. It has a unique atmosphere that was so enjoyable. Dream-like and atmospheric, felt like reading a multi-dimensional novel. Maybe some day it can be revived again in a new iteration and form. :)
