We as the human race would fight and bicker among each other over the slightest things... a bit funny, isn't it? Since the time that we could walk we would kill and lay waste to each other over petty things such as territory and religion, even putting our ideals on the line while at the same time back at home our people would fight over trivial things.

Justice… equality… hunger… appearances… whether someone died for the right cause or not...

Anything you could imagine with your insignificant head we fought over... and many died.

You would think for such an advance race compared to all the primitive animals that were alive at the time that we’d be far better, wouldn't we? No. The truth was that we were nothing than primates ourselves; animals who could not go beyond our differences to unite and join one another and create a better world.

In the end, we just destroyed our planet through both war and pollution… but I suppose you too know that, don't you? But now, we have out civilization back... we have everything that we want to protect.

Though, we all still remember in the year 2267 when our world was nothing more than a nuclear dump with only a few patches of habitable lands left. It wasn't until a man with technology unlike any other finally united the Earth forces under a single banner through brute force by killing anyone who opposed him did we finally become whole. He built an impenetrable fortress and had his forces cultivate and secure whatever lands could be saved by using devices meant to preserve the lands that were untainted by the countless wars we held. Communities were built within these lands, before steps to move forward were introduced.

In the year 2321, the man who united Earth led expeditions from Earth to cultivate new planets with flagships each containing the newest development; the FrameWerks. These were powerful mechanized piloted units that can only be used by a select few individuals after years of training, but they allowed us to conquer planets with ease.

For years we slowly captured planets and things were working, we were finally at peace and enjoying things for we thought we were alone in the universe.

Or so we had thought...

Years had passed and in the year 2578, we finally lost communication with a human colony on our outer rim all of a sudden. At first, we thought it was just an error with the signal… until seconds later another colony tuned in and told us that they were being attacked.

We suddenly found ourselves thrown into a war with an unknown alien race for years, with all of our communications being cut off with all of our outer rim planets. Despite all the reinforcements we sent, we never heard from them… we could only assume the worst had happened.

It was only in the year of 2590 that we finally were able to make establish contact with one of our outer rim planets due to the efforts of the man who united Earth who was dedicated on find out what happened... but what we had found, was something far, far worse than discovering hell itself.



They were slain by an alien race called the Cruxi… and they had technology and firepower that was on a whole new level compared to us. Beam weapons, ships that were faster, soldiers that had barriers… you name it, they probably had it. However, their numbers weren’t as vast as ours. So we threw ourselves at them in order to keep them at bay, and to keep them from reaching more of our home worlds.

Though a strategy like that can only last so long until all of humanity starts to believe that we’re fighting a losing war… but that’s where you come in, kid.

You’re here to clean up our petty mistakes of our pasts as adults and to fight our battle. That’s the sad truth of the matter. Remember how I mentioned those Frameworks earlier, right? Well, you along with others around your age have been chosen to pilot experimental Frameworks in hopes of turning the tides of this war.

Truth be told, I don’t envy you… because I feel you’re going to be thrown straight into the horrors of things kid… I just pray you make it out of this alive, even if we don’t.

Welcome to End of Days (or EoD for short), an RP inspired by Mass Effect and Evangelion. Currently we are full on players, but if you still wish to post your interest we do have a sign up thread that can be found here.

Anyway, feel free to post comments, discuss things, or whatever your heart's content here~!

_____________________________________________________________________________________



Different facilities!

And sorry for the delay, got caught up with stuff yesterday... working on the OOC right now along with the Opening Post.

Edit: It's up
@Skyrte@Card Captor@Tricheus

All are accepted by the way! Very interesting characters as well~

Ah, and as something that I forgot to mention earlier...

...diseases, illnesses, and disabilities that your characters had before entering Kite are automatically gone upon entering it. If you had a missing limb, cancer, diabetes, HIV, a tumor, or were stuck to a wheel chair, well, you would find the limb suddenly regrowing and your disease halted along with your strength coming back to you suddenly. While it would be a shocking, and probably traumatizing experiences to your character initially, but it might also be yet another reason why your character may want to stay in Kite; disabilities they once had would become no more, but once they leave they would have them once again. Just a heads up is all.

Also, I will begin working on the OOC today since we have a good amount of players, doesn't mean I wont stop accepting players either since I intend for this RP to be pretty lively.
@Ammokkx@AtomicNut@daltar

All are accepted! Welcome!

@Tricheus

That depends. Flight is perfectly capable if it is your central theme, but hovering and levitation is also possible if it's a byproduct of magic or a spell. You could have powerful wings capable of taking hits from swords and bullets and lifting you high into the sky if you truly wanted. Just to give you an example. (Think of the movie Maleficent)
I'ma just go ahead and accept all sign ups up to this point, and say that we're full.

I apologize for the delay since I was busy yesterday and things came up, I'll have the OOC and Opening Post up later today, so keep an eye out.
Dang, I got busy yesterday, so was unable to get to this. Anyway, lots of interest! o.O

Real interested, but curious as to the other side of the belief side with negative thoughts and such, are you counting on the players making the effects, or are you gonna decide on them.


It'll be a little mix match of both to be honest, though for the most part it will entirely be up to the player themselves. I'll give you some indication most likely and some subtle hints of what kind of feeling your character will begin to have, but ultimately you will have the final say of how you will want to change your character. So, basically, your actions will equal consequences or even rewards and will shape your character.

Well I'm curious! Do we supply the personality while you give the power?


Starting off? Nope! As mentioned, you will start off with your own theme (like a hunter, communicating with animals, super strength or athletic abilities, summoning creatures to fight for you, etc.) of your own leisure, but this will be pretty basic for the most part. You'll have some simple average skills, but they'll still be pretty grand, but they wont be so over the top amazing however. So, simply put, starting off you have your own set of skills that you'd like to have just as long as you are reasonable, and you can decide how you'd like to expand them as you progress in Kite.

______________________________________________________

Anyway, here are the character sheets for those who are interested and are ready to make their characters:

  • Name: What is it that we should call you?
  • Age: So, how old are ya?
  • Sex: Male, or female?
  • Appearance: Might as well show or tell us what you look like. To be truthful, I'd like to see what you can do by describing yourself, but a picture is fine too!
  • Personality: Tell me, just what kind of person are you?
  • Background: I'd like to know a little bit more about yourself and know just why kind of life you used to live... we are going to have to get along after all.
  • Powers: The powers you were gifted upon being brought into Kite. These will be your bread and butter for now, and they will be your means of survival. I’m curious as to what you can do! Now tell me, what is it that you can do? Manipulation over magic? Can you summon things? Talk to and control animals? Bend your bones and contort your body? Are you capable of flight? Tell me. The possibilities are only limited only by your imagination... but remember, you are but a newborn chick compared to the masters who have been living decades upon decades here. Compared to them your powers are but basic gifts... so don't get too carried way or overconfident, okay?
  • Personal Motive: This is where I want to learn what makes you, well, tick. What exactly is it that you are working so hard towards? Is it actually to go back home, or perhaps you are actually wanting to stay here in the land of Kite? Perhaps you have no intention of going home? Perhaps you intend to make a name for yourself in this mystical land, make a family, or even conquer it for yourself? What do you want to do human?
  • Mementos: Now for the most important thing of all... your most prized possession. What small things were brought with you as mementos from the world from whence you came? Everyone is limited to two small things at the most, and these things are usually worth nothing to the people of Kite and others; the kicker is that they are important to you and you alone. How are they important to you or why you keep them close? Well, I’ll leave that entirely up to you.


With that, I'll leave you all to create your characters... and welcome, to the World of Kite.
“With everything that has happened to you up to this moment, with everything that you have experienced... can you give me an honest answer and say that you love or hate the world that you live in? And if you could have the option to escape it in an instant... would you wish for the opportunity to go back to it or live in the fantasy that was given to you?”

As the voice echoes into your head, cradling you as you fall into a deep slumber, you soon find yourself opening your eyes and waking up in a land unlike anything you have seen before... and you realize, that you are definitely no longer in your room.



"These are the first words that must be answered if you are to take your first steps into this adventure that I ask of you. If you love it, truly, truly love the world that you come from then you must take a step back and figure out why is it that you cannot hate it despite all that there is wrong with your world. I have seen your people fight, rape, and kill one another... I have seen the racism and the hatred... I have seen the violent outbursts and constant rage that comes from your kind... but if for some reason you can still love it and choose to go back, then I will give you that option once you have done me a favor of great importance. However as a being of contradiction and balance I must also ask of thee something else; if you hate it, why can’t you love it? If, despite all the opportunities given to you since the moment of your birth and the chances you have had to change, why is it that you can still find a reason to hate? Why is it that you can not forgive those around you and simply love them? What is it that you hate so much with the world?"

"I ask these things because it is my duty to and because whatever it is you feel towards your planet... yourself... and however it is you may act from hence forth it will shape you into the person you will need to be as you adventure into this world… MY world. Do be warned, however, that your feelings and your emotions can make a vast difference here in my world whether you want it to or not."

"For example, your anger and your rage can turn you into something you despise but what you crave... while your calm and love can bring you something else. These are but simple examples after all, nothing more and nothing less. Whether you listen or heed these examples or warnings are up to you."

"Now, you may be wondering, why exactly is it you are here? That is something I can explain with ease. Who I am can be explained another time, but here… in the land of Kite where dreams and fantasies come true by a simple whisk of one's hand, my people are in grave danger. I have allowed many from your world to enter mine in order to save not only this world, but yours as well because something has broken free. If it is not stopped, then both of our worlds will be destroyed."

The voice in your head finishes speaking for a bit, only to cough as if clearing its throat, although, it seems rather pointless why a voice in your head would be clearing its throat.

"Adjust yourself to this world and meet up with the others in the village nearby and do please stay on the roads as to avoid dangers living nearby. While it is true that you are my responsibility since I have brought you here without much of a single warning, I do not wish want to be responsible for your deaths so soon without having the chance to meet you all."

...and just like that, you're left to your fates in the mystical land of Kite.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Kite, The Realm Within One's Heart


Welcome to the mythical land of Kite, a land ruled by a plethora of different races that you will undoubtedly come across as you explore this land in your adventures!

In this RP, you will be playing as a person from the human world (our world) who has been transported to the world of Kite via a special means that will be mentioned in-game by a very powerful individual who has requested our help. Your character's powers will be through your character's own personality and how they view and have acted in their world own world:

Now, what this means is that YOU yourself are entitled of creating your own character, but it also means that they wont be very strong entering the world of Kite. They will be strong and be able to perform some pretty cool things based upon their mentality and what not. If someone was a thief their life, they may be adept to shadows, if someone was athletic they may be a good runner, if someone was an artist they may be able to summon things, etc... but those are only what they were able to do based on their real life skills. Now, there will also be people who could do those same things but at a lesser level if they have desired that power. Say that someone wanted to be stronger to protect someone else, but didn't have the strength to... well, in Kite, it makes dreams and fantasies real, and would grant that person more strength!

This is the gift that Kite grants; the power of 'belief' and 'bringing things into reality'. What you couldn't do before you can do here in Kite, but it is of course limited, and each playable character starts off with a central theme, however, once the RP gets started you will be free to adapt and branch out from this central theme and expand your powers freely. (Say you start off being a master swordsman, and you later want to dwell into magic, you will be more than happy to; the same could be said for a creature summoner or someone with a bow and arrow etc.)

Like a said, the only limitations are the ones that you give for yourself in this RP, however there will of course be limits starting fof for simplicity sake.

Anyway, there will also be be things that will be touched upon in this setting that may be disturbing to others, despite it being a high fantasy setting. I also know how some players can get in such settings and I would like people who are prepared for this kind of stuff and know what they are getting into.

Basically folks, in this RP I'm going to be making sure that people actually feel some emotion towards their characters and have them put through some stuff with actual character development instead of being a blunt character. This means that there wont be anything such as plot armor or dodge for days kind of stuff, everyone here will be on the same playing field.

This is an RP that I will invest my time into heavily, and you can expect me to be focusing on this one a lot. This doesn't mean I wont abandon my other RPs, just giving a heads up that I'm going to be extremely aware of this one and GM-savy!

Anyway, if you have any comments, questions, or are interested in this RP, feel free to throw it my way. I am all ears.
(Sorry for the late replies again, Doctor appointments have been killing me lately ;-;)

@Thanatos

Alright, I think that he's fine then... although I still do think there should be a little more 'kick' to the Framewerk. Nonetheless Accepted.

@Ariamis

Very interesting combination here that I think will be highly useful to our current lineup... I'll say that they're both accepted. Welcome!

And with that, I'd say we have about enough players to start the RP and get started. I think at most, I'll allow one or two more players in.

Anyway, I'll have an OOC up later for where we can chat and discuss things, before I get the opening post up.
@Fat Boy Kyle

Not at all!

Just as long as you're aware of the mind screwy nature is all.

@Thanatos

It just punches and bite things? You don't want anything else at all?

Does the notable death have to be related to the war?


Nope, not at all!

@Tancuras

Accepted! Glad to have Matsuda and Sparrow on board!

-------

I'll go ahead and post my own character here:

  • Name: Korie Ridley
  • Appearance:
  • Age: 16
  • Personality: Korie is an interesting individual, coming off as a kind person and putting everyone before them. They’re someone who follows orders without question but at the same time only if it is what they believe to be best for humanity. Telling lies is something that they would do if it means to protect and keep people safe, and if Korie would have to kill the few to save the many then they would do so. In the field of battle, Korie is calm and collected, keeping a level head even through the toughest of situations… but sometimes, sometimes they question if they truly are fighting for all these other people, or if deep down they are just wanting to fight for themselves.
  • Motive to live: To be honest, Korie doesn’t have much of a reason except for the orders given to them. They just want to live and survive and see the next day… to see the sun and breathe the air again. To have a chance to continue dreaming.
  • Background: Korie comes from mother Earth, and raised from birth to be a soldier by parents who aimed to create a child who would be ‘perfect’. Korie was their prize, something to be cherished and taken care of. Homeschooled and given regularly tests on a daily basis, this was their child’s life for years. To Korie, however, life was incomplete; everyday was another unhappy lecture or rudimentary test… the same old, same old… everything was the same. Until Korie’s mother was killed in a lab explosion. After the incident, Korie’s father began to perform even more tests on his own as he abandoned his child to the military. Years passed and Korie was taken into the Framewerk units.
  • Notable Deaths: Korie’s Mother… Not much is known about their father or even if they are still alive or not.
  • Other things: Prefers to keep gender hidden. Good luck getting to know them.


  • Framewerk Code Name: Aester
  • Appearance:
  • Signature Weapon System: Aester’s weapon is its ability to cause enormous vibrations throughout its body and focus it towards a single focus point to cause severe damage by using the pendulums that are hidden in its arms, shoulders, chest, and legs. While the limbs are well armored as a result, the joints are not, allowing flexible maneuverability for Aesther; a Jack-of-trades of sort.
  • Secondary Weapon System: Aesther has retractable stakes underneath its arms and legs that allow it to pierce and stick to large foes, or to hold its ground if it needs to unleash a large shockwave to collapse the nearby surroundings (for example a canyon pass) , or if it just needs an immediate weapon.
  • Flight-Capability/Thrusters: Korie’s Framewerk has built-in thrusters that are fairly normal and capable of decent flight and space travel if necessary, but for the most part it maneuvers like a normal Framewerk.
  • Special Ability: Blank.
Sorry for the late replies, been a bit tired and things came up today!

@Thanatos

Yeah, that'll be perfectly fine, although you might need to repost them since my memory is a little fuzzy X_X

@AtomicNut

Both Sigma and her Framewerk look good to me! I'd say they're accepted.

@Ammokkx

Serah and Atty seem fine as well, both are accepted.

@Raijinslayer

Ian is alright, although I would change a couple of things with his Framewerk. Either disruption or corrosion, you'll have to pick one or the other I'm afraid, not both because I feel him having both is pushing it a little bit. As for Last Rites, I think you should choose between claws+Blades or shields+bolts rather than all of them since again, I feel it is a bit much for one Framework to have all of that. Other than that, Anubis being a Speedy attacker with poor defenses is perfectly fine.
