Going Viral: A Digimon RP

So @metanoia answered most of the other questions how I would have answered them so no need to go any further into that. Sorry for the delayed response, had a busy day yesterday.

Two, you mentioned there'll be 'other social media apps/celebrities/influencers that are known of and about'. Does this mean despite Digimon not being part of other media, people do know of them? Further, this means each of us has a known online presence involving them, right?

Thanks, I didn't want to assume too much so figured it wouldn't hurt to clarify!

@Blazion

Great question. So the "other social media apps/celebrities/influencers" is in reference to the ones we know about in the real world (TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, etc.). The Digimon app is one that only our characters will know about as well as those who inhabit the Digital World. At some point in the RP, the worlds will collide in a way that Digimon and the Digital World can no longer hide from the Real World, which will change the "influence" power even more. Hopefully that makes sense?

Going Viral: A Digimon RP

vi-ral

adjective

• relating to or involving an image, video, piece of information, etc., that is circulated rapidly and widely from one internet user to another.
• of the nature of, caused by, or relating to a virus or viruses.

noun

• an image, video, advertisement, etc., that is circulated rapidly on the internet.

Social media has had a momentous impact on our everyday lives. Whether we like it or not, some level of virtual interaction will impact us at some point. Depending on tweet, a photo, a TikTok or anything from that matter, all it takes is one fateful moment for something to viral. The concept of "going viral" is not prejudiced at all. There are influencers who get paid for a living to make digital content in order to make money and sustain their following. While every post on social media may not be a hit, more times than not, it produces a plethora of views and clicks. On the other hand, an ordinary person may not see as much engagement on their accounts. However, all it takes is the right moment and correct usage of the algorithm (intentional or not) for their own posts to reach the masses.

With connection to our entire world in the palm of our hands, no wonder there are so many apps that pique our interests. Social discussions, sharing photographs, trendy dance moves... if you name it, there is probably an app that you can tap to download. But what happens when an app you didn't download appears on your phone? Would you hold down your thumb on it and try to delete it? Or are you curious to learn more about it?

There is a unique bridge between our world and the Digital World that lives across the information superhighway. In recent years, the bridge has been destroyed, but with the progression of new technology, it has slowly rebuilt itself, allowing digital creatures known as Digimon to shift from one side to the other through certain devices (computers, televisions, laptops, phones). For select individuals, one of these creatures, known as Digimon, has biomerged into the real world for an unknown purpose through a new app that has downloaded onto their phone. The true purpose and functions of the app are currently unknown, but it frequently gives updates about their specific Digimon and other creatures as they emerge.

The "engagement and analytics" portion of this app isn't clearly explained, but what becomes clear is this: the more you associate with your Digimon, the more VIRAL you become... for better or worse.

"Going Viral" is a Digimon roleplay that has been created in the mold of Digimon Tamers (the third season of Digimon). Digimon aren't readily known of per se (no card game, video game or anything like that), but it relates to Tamers in that it occurs "our world." So there will be other social media apps/celebrities/influencers that are known of and about. As of right now, I'm keeping the deeper portions of the plot ambiguous for the sake of not wanting to spoil any and everything.

The plot will revolve around a group of individuals who are partnered with Digimon (known as Digi-Influencers); these Influencers (for short) can either have had their Digimon for a while or could be brand new at the start of the roleplay. The Roleplay itself will be episodic and take place in different arcs depending on what is needed. Not all of the characters need to be together at once per se, but they are all working towards crossing paths at some point. Other Digimon (good and bad) will biomerge into the Real World and cause issues, mixed with your usual "slice of life" moments. Influencers will also have the capability of battling each other depending on how things go.

My hope is to keep this RP on the relatively smaller end in terms of the number of players. I would like for this to be roughly no more than 3 to 6 people total as that will help me with managing the characters and the plot. The goal is to eventually craft a team of Influencers to take down the big bad, but as with most other social media personalities, people can either work together or against each other to make themselves look better.

in-flu-enc-er

noun

• one who exerts influence; a person who inspires or guides the actions of others
• a person who is able to generate interest in something by posting about it on social media

The Digi-Influencers (or Influencers for short) are your "DigiDestined" or "Tamers" in this roleplay. For the purposes of this roleplay, we'll say that this group will be between 18 to 22 years old (so, college-aged). I've chosen this age range because I feel like they would have enough "freedom" to do what they want, while also having some level of immaturity in there. As with any RP that I host, I'm looking for a diverse cast and interesting characters.

The Influencers are named as such due to their ability to cause influence to their Digimon and those around them (including potentially other people, Digimon and Influencers). If you have seen Digimon Data Squad/Savers, it works almost similarly to Digimon Natural Ability/Digisoul. This power allows Influencers to assist in powering up and digivolving their partners not just in a linear way, but through other means as well (to be revealed). Keep in mind though that influence can be a good or bad thing, though. Influencer's, upon receiving the Digimon app, will have their phones transformed into a D-Phone (Smartphone Digivice).

Influencers will only have one partner Digimon. The Digimon franchise has a plethora of options to choose from over at Wikimon (fan creations are not allowed due to not wanting to cause any issues with the creators of those Digimon). Depending on your character's history, they will have known this Digimon for some time or may even meet them at the start of the roleplay. The nature of the relationship between the Influencer and the Digimon is up to you, but what is solidified is that the two of them are partners.

• First, thanks for making it this far into the interest check. Shout out to you.
• This is not a first-come, first-serve sort of roleplay. I'm looking for roleplayers that can vibe with a casually advanced roleplay while also providing great characters.
• Once you are done with your Character Sheet, please PM it to me so that I can evaluate it before acceptance. Do NOT post your CS in the Character or OOC section until approved. PLEASE NOTE: In your application, only include up to your Digimon partner's Rookie form.
• Looking for this RP to be between 3 to 6 characters. Very much so a small group.
• Please post at least once per week in character. There will be instances where the group may be split up into separate groups to handle a task or quest so the Influencers won't always be together. Because this is a casually advanced RP though, I'm providing a little bit of leeway in posting. The goal is for this to be a long-term plot with minimal pressure. If you are unable to continue the RP, let me know so that we can phase out your character.
• The roleplay will be a combination of slice of life, action, and adventure. Feel free to create your own subplots with other characters (enemies, friends, lovers), but just make sure that the other person approves of it.
• There will be a Discord for quick OOC chatting, but OOC here is fine too. Important information will be posted in the OOC and linked in the Discord.
• At least two paragraphs per post. Give us something to reply to!
• Have fun!

Rangers

Location: Downtown Food Truck Station
Interacting w/: Everyone

One moment, Andre had come to terms that this moment would be the end of his time on Earth. Who was going to take care of his two little sisters? Would the news talk about how he went out a hero? Was it selfish to want to actually protect everyone who was out here on New Years? But all of those thought soon vanished with the emergence of a relatively short woman and the synchronization of a mysterious crystal and his body. Everyone was observing the new devices on their wrist simultaneously now with the Bechats looking somewhat hesitant at their enemies being provided with a newfound power. A momentary glow with each person's respective colors emanated from the circular screen of the Power Morpher before subsiding.

Charlie's hazel eyes glanced over at the opposition, the smoke from both sides of the battlefield rising above a quickly spreading fire. The Rangers needed to work quickly before things got out of hand. The morph sequence wasn't something that could simply be figured out on the fly; there was training that needed to be done along with some sort of teaching as well, but Charlie didn't feel qualified for that. If they could somehow survive this battle, Dr. O would be the best person for the job when it came to educating this team about who and what they were now. Between the Bechats sprinting forward now and the Rangers witty comments, Charlie only had one thing to say:

"Focus, guys!"

Glancing up from his Power Morpher, Andre's eyes widened as a Bechat came at him with one of its lances. Before, he was responding and reacting on his own power... but now? He felt an electrical jolt of energy coursing through his body and guiding him with fluid movements. It was like taking a test, but knowing all of the answers to it beforehand... along with actually studying.

Ducking out of the way of the lance, he gripped the staff portion of it and yanked it, sending the Bechat down to its back and then shoving the lance through its torso, causing it to explode in a bright, gray light. "Yooo... what the fuck!?" Andre hollered with brightened eyes. Technically, he had just killed the thing, but somehow watching this intergalactic creature implode upon impact was satisfying. He didn't feel bad about ending a creature that had caused so much damage right into the New Year.

The Bechats swarmed in a manner that forced the group of five to separate with from one another. When Andre finished off one of the humanoids, he looked up and realized that he was back to back with Jackson while the girls were a few feet away handling their own Bechat problem. "You feelin' hella powerful all of a sudden, Jack?" Andre asked, ducking out of the way of another attack of a Bechat, grabbing it by the wrist and then hurling it into Jackson's direction so that he could finish off the double team attack.
