Warehouse 13: A Different Day to Live In

"What you are about to enter is a world beyond what you will ever think of. Its filled with bizzare, fantastic, and amazing objects will shatter everything you ever thought about the world. And this place itself... No matter how much time I have spent here, I have yet to find out all of its secrets. And the people incharge of it will surprise you. But, I think that this simple introduction is enough, and that you will see what I mean in mere moments.

Welcome to Warehouse 13."

A simple introduction to the Warehouse

Welcome to the roleplay Warehouse 13: A Different Day to Live In! This is my version of the roleplay, and a beginning, I will give a simple definination of the Warehouse:

The Warehouse is a large facility in South Dakota that is able to constantly expand the amount of items held within it, due to being placed right next to a mountain and being underground. It has many different sectors, depending on the objects stored and how dangerous they are considered to be. There is the main area, which contains most of the general artifacts, and it can be considered extremely large, being as far as the eye can see. While it does have an actual end, it is very easy to get lost in it and think the place has no actual end. There are many smaller areas which contain artifacts according to either a time period, being extremely dangerous, or just plain whacky.

The Warehouse is run by a group of people known as the regents, who are a group of average people from all around the world, and they make the large choices for the Warehouse, as well as ensure it runs smoothly. Along with the regents, there is a single person known as the Caretaker. The Caretaker is the person who is directly responsible for the Warehouse, being in direct contact of it and the people running it at all times, when he or she are needed. The Caretaker is given certain special abilities to ensure he has a special connection to the Warehouse, and only very certain people can be chosen.

When it comes to collecting the artifacts, tagging them and managing the inner parts of the Warehouse, there are agents. There can be any number of agents at any given time, and they are only granted access if they were invited by the Caretaker, after the latter has deemed them to be right for the job. They go around the world, chasing the artifacts as they appear on the surface, and after they manage to ensure it harmed no one and move it safely to the Warehouse, they tag it and then place it in the appropiate place, which is usually defined pre-maturely to the artifact's arrival. Once in its proper place, the agents go on to the next case.

Detailed explanation of how the Warehouse is built and the different sections in it:

Warehouse Structure

The Warehouse, a massive metal and stone structure, provides storage for both artifacts and items of significance to Warehouse operations. It includes a variety of rooms, most of which exist underground, and each with different purposes.

The Umbilicus

The Umbilicus is a cylindrical shaped corridor filled with explosives which can be detonated in the event of an emergency. This is the only main entrance to the main Warehouse. The Umbillcus is entered through the only door in the Warehouse's exterior, and leads to Artie's office. The Umbilicus controls entry to the rest of the Warehouse with a retinal scanning device.

Alternate Entrances

There are supposed other entrances to the Warehouse, but those remain secrect, only to be used in time of need.

Warehouse Main Office

The Umbilicus leads to the main Warehouse office. This room houses the Warehouse's office as well as the main power and the central alarm system used in cases of emergencies. Along the wall to the right and rear of the desk are two massive filing cabinets. The first wall of drawers resembles an old library card catalog. The second has yet to be identified. In one corner, a small kitchenette sits in an alcove and includes a refrigerator and coffee maker. Directly next to the kitchenette is a metal, circular staircase leading to an upper level. Last notable thing about this room is that it leads to a small balcony overlooking the main artefact storage.

Artifact Storage

A coordinate grid mapping system locates each artifact stored in the Warehouse, though no clear indication is given of the reason for the organization of the grid itself. The grid system may be indicated by large, yellow circles on the floor of the main storage area that contain letters and numbers in them. The coordinate mapping system doesn't seem to be related to the actual organization of the artifacts, however. Artifacts appear to be placed in the Warehouse based on overall balance of energies and locations added to the Warehouse computer system after placement, rather than a grid location found first and the item placed there second.

Every aisle is given a name and at the beginning and end of each there should be a sign indicating what aisle that is. An aisle's name usually has something to do with what artifacts are kept in it.

Despite careful placement, artifacts in the Warehouse frequently appear to move on their own (in theory towards anyone who is metaphysically predisposed). Regular screenings every decade ensure items remain where they are recorded to have been located last. Although Warehouse personnel can walk or ride through the Warehouse to retrieve or store artifacts, in emergencies they can strap into a harness and use a zip-line system to travel to specific Warehouse coordinates quickly.

Due to the large number of artifacts, and the psychic turbulence each artifact generates, the aisles of the Warehouse occasionally generate 'static', which Artie assures is harmless. Despite this claim, he warns the agents to 'duck and cover' as soon at it appears. The static manifests careening orbs of ball-lightning that carom off the shelves and support columns of the Warehouse, seemingly without direction or purpose.

When in the Artifact storage area it is important not to touch anything and not to go in the storage area with high emotions. The artifacts can pick up on a person's negative energy and accidentally activate.

Warehouse Filing Room

In addition to artifacts, the Warehouse contains a massive paper filing system housed in a separate room. The filing system contains details about each person who has ever worked for Warehouse 13. According to some, this room has yet to catch up with the Warehouse's technological advances.

More places will be detailed as the Warehouse is explored further.

Rules:

Rules

GM: Mr Nim

1) No Godmodding. I will not tolerate it. If anyone who is controlling a char vanishes for a period longer than 3 days, then in order to ensure the story goes on, the last person to have contact with the freezing character, or the person who needed to post after the freezing character, will need to make a post where they either approach a different character, one which is possible for them to contact, or simply cause something that will attract the attention of their character. If the owner of the freezing character will not be around for longer than a week, it will be stated that the agent had an emergency (Different reasons will be stated, depending on the character's personality) and they have been given time off until further notice.

2) Each person gets to control one character. Simple as that. I will allow the use of NPC's, but only to advance the missions and such.

3) While all characters get to have skills and such, I do have to request that you try and stick to only one skill in which their char is an expert. I do not mind that they will know how to do several things, but they cannot be an experts on everything. Even the Caretaker has only one thing they are an expert on, and that is the Warehouse.

4) If you don't agree with someone or something, you can tell them that. Nobody is going to feel insulted because of that, and most actually feel like you helped them. However remember that the GM always have the last word, don't argue with them if they don't agree with what you say. It's fine to bring it up, it's not fine to drag an argument on for pages. Again, try to contact one of the other GM if you can't agree with one of the decisions. But stay civil at all times.

5) If you want to fight another person's character, be sure to let them know first. I will not tolerate people autohitting others, but I will also not agree to people managing to dodge a lot of bullets without blinking. Everyone in the Warehouse is still human, regardless of using an artifact or not.

6) A) Do not go around and use artifacts with a light head. While I agree that some do not have a negative effect, Most of them have a negative effect, if it happens during the use or after. Most artifacts can also activate by simple emotions being felt near them, so you might want to watch out with where you are doing some of the things.

B) Do not go and create artifacts out of the blue. I will agree to use the artifacts from the show, but you must first ask me if it is inside the Warehouse or not. As for original artifacts, there is a template for them and every single artifact used must be snagged, bagged and tagged (If its a canon artifact then link it to the Warehouse 13 Wiki or use the template, if its original then a template is a must.)

(Will expand as more agents join)

Warehouse Personnal

Stephen Lincoln - Caretaker (Mr Nim) : The Warehouse Caretaker is the agent who has a form of symbiotic connection to the current incarnation of the Warehouse. Their link allows them to actively search through inventory, sense if the Warehouse is in trouble, and above all be a living body for the Warehouse's soul to share. A Caretaker has access to the restricted files on the current and past Warehouse secrets.

The Regents (NPC's) - The idea of having a group of people running the Warehouse was first started by Warehouse 2. The Regents serve as the protectors of the Warehouse and create the artifact protection procedures that are used. Over time as more and more artifacts became stored in the Warehouse the Regents not only became the Warehouse's govenors, but also the keepers of its secrets.

The symbol of the regents is the Eye of Horus. In Egyptian mythology the Eye of Horus represents protection, royal power and good health. The Regents also have a higher position in the line of running the Warehouse, to ensure the Caretaker does not have too much power in his hands. The Regents never meet in the same place twice and when they meet they do it quickly and quietly. Having multiple Regents in one place at one time could prove disastrous if anything unfortunate should happen.

The Agents -

These are the people that keep the Warehouse going, collecting new artifacts that need to be gathered, make sure the Warehouse is safe, and do the everyday jobs that are required to maintain it. There is usually one agent who is considered to be the Head agent, and he is the one who is responsible of giving out the missions for the other agents, but he is often also involved himself in doing the missions, to ensure they run smoothly and that everything goes well.

Head Warehouse Agent - Marianne Malvo - Revans Exile

Agent - Axle Niebo - Charlie
Agent - Alexander Tenning (Warehouse Fresh Arrival) - Mr Nim
Agent - Herbert Grover Carver - FuzzyFly

"Now, I only have one question to ask. Will you accept an invitation to an Endless Wonder?"

Yeah, I told Fiery and she went :DDD

Anyone knows if Glitchy is still around, by the way? I will send a message, but am curious if he is busy or something.

Sakamoto Senju

Arriving at the gates of Konoha appeared really nice and welcoming to him now. He wasn't about to say Kirigakure was extremely menacing, but he did have an odd feeling about it. But nothing could beat being back where he belonged. He begun jumping between the building roofs, making his way to the Hokage office. Landing on a roof in front of it, he saw Meisa and gave her a wave of his hand, seeing she is in the middle of briefing a team, and then jumped to the window of Hisoka's office, which was open, as usual.

Going through it, he landed on the office floor and immediatly kneeled "I have returned from my mission successfully, Hokage-sama, and I have a full report, including a further report on what you requested from me." He said, and then looked at Hisoka, hoping he would allow him to get up soon. His knees weren't used to kneeling too much, and even mere moments were annoying to him.

Deidara Yuhiko

Sitting on a tree's branch outside his house, wearing his black hood and stolen ANBU mask, Deidara was meditating while holding the Tiger seal. He felt the heat of a fire butterfly inside of his mouth, but also managed to keep it there for several minutes now. Hearing a pair of small wings suddenly arrive, he quickly let go of the seal, which made the butterfly in his mouth vanish, and then removed the mask from his face before the small sparrow that was his cousin's sparrow see it. He jumped down, at which point Michi spotted him and went to fly in front of him.

"Asami has requested that all of Team 13 will meet her at the Minosaki Teahouse within three hours." the small bird told him, at which Deidara nodded before doing a few seals and letting out his mouth a small water butterfly. He let the sparrow drink from it for a bit before it flew away from him, and Deidara released the jutsu and made the water butterfly vanish. Sighing and wondering why would Asami suddenly want to see him and his team, he went inside his house to hide the cloak and mask before changing to his regular attiture.

3 hours laters

Arriving at the tea house a couple of minutes after the shceduled three hours, Deidara looked at it from the outside. It was a very average tea house, and he found nothing special in it. Sure, it appeared nice, but he wondered if there was anything that Asami was hiding in it. Walking inside, he spotted Midori and Renya, and gave them both a wave of his hand before approaching the two "Hey Midori, Renya. Nice to see you two." He said and gave them a smile, also wondering where Asami might be hiding, unless he was blind and she was hiding right under his nose.

Naruto : The Rise of The New Generations

Hoshi Miwa

Looking at Tora as he went next to her, she gave him a small smile before Eiji landed next to her "Hello Eiji. I assume you can guess this is your new student." She said and looked at Tora "Tora, this is Eiji Emiya, your sensei. I do hope you two will get along nicely, and I also hope we can have the lesson about genjutsus soon enough." Hoshi said. She also saw Kuni land next to Eiji, slightly pouting. Looking around a bit, she wondered where the third student was "I thought there was also a third student?" She asked, and Kuni raised her head "He said he needed to go do something back at home. I wasn't paying too much attention" Kuni said, and Hoshi nodded.

Soon after, Ryoku landed next to Hoshi, and after a brief hello to Eiji and her, to which she replied with a nod, he entered a different room and allowed his students to train a bit. She then watched as another team landed, and the sensei talked to his students a bit. Walking inside the room, she approached Ryoku, who watched his students do the runs. Standing next to him, she gave a small smile to the running students "We are almost ready to begun, Ryoku-sama. We just need the forth team to arrive." She told him, and waited for his reply.

---

Yoshikuni Sadako

Hearing her sensei's reply, she realised that she had been dumb enough to not even look in the trees. How could she have missed such a thing? Wanting to slap herself, Kuni noticed Shiro looked to the side, and after quickly telling her something about needing to go do something in his home, he left without saying a word to Eiji. Wondering was he in a rush, but not too interested or eager to find out, Kuni just kept following Eiji.

Soon enough they landed back in Amegakure, and in front of an impressive looking structure, which they entered. They found Hoshi, who Kuni thought was cool, but a bit too purple headed, and next to her was a boy. Tora introduced him to Eiji, and Kuni caught the name Tora. What kind of a name was Tora? She thought for a moment, while taking deep breaths to properly regain her breath "I thought there was also a third student?" Hoshi suddenly asked, and Kuni looked at her "He said he needed to go do something back at home. I wasn't paying too much attention" She replied, and Hoshi nodded in return "What now, Eiji-sensei?" She asked before seeing the Amekage come, say a brief hello and another something to Eiji, and then another room in the structure with his team.

A Warehouse 13 roleplay

Not really looking for villains right now, but maybe start as an agent and turn rouge later? Just a thought.

And an OOC will be up later!

Warehouse 13: A Different Day to live In

I agree Firo, I agree.

And right now I'm doing an interest check, and I understand most people are busy with finals and other things, seeing its near the end of the year, but if I manage to get enough people interested, I will create an OOC and start the roleplay itself, but it will be open until we have...

I'd estimate a good amount of agents would be seven, or eight (Not including the Caretaker.) I will also give the option to create former agents, but am still thinking about the conditions there will be for creating one.

Never the less, it is nice to know it has more interested :)

A Warehouse 13 roleplay

Cyndus, I don't really plan on having the canon characters around, but you can always make such a char! Having an experienced character who will also be a father figure is awesome!

Seravee, I think you should do more than lurking, but I guess thats a start :P

And I guess I should explain how this will work: It will mainly be in the show, we will go tag and bag an artifact, but I will not be the one who always choose what the artifact is. I'll let each one get a turn at choosing what the artifact will be. I'll also be building a plot for something bigger, but I will also allow others to get in on that plot as well (Not everyone, but like... You get me)

Like the show had, except... Doing it in our own way. New and Old artifacts, new plots, and brand new agents to have, which could mean a very interesting story of its own.

A Warehouse 13 roleplay

Hey, I'm interested in creating a roleplay based on the TV called Warehouse 13 (Warehouse 13 in Wikipedia). I'm looking to see if anyone else is interested, and also have a basic way of describing the general things about the show for all of you who do not watch it!

For anyone who might be interested in learning more about it, feel free to read the three hiders, but the basic idea is described in the Warehouse 13 basic plot hider. More information can be found in the other 2 hiders, and if enough people will be interested, I will create an OOC and have a full, very well detailed explanation of everything, but if anyone else wishes to know more, feel free to ask!

Warehouse 13 basic plot

The plot of the show was around a secret warehouse, filled with mystical objects that each had a special ability of its own. Each object has a good and bad side to its effect, so that makes all of the objects dangerous to use. At all. So, the objects need to be collected, tagged and placed in the secure place that is Warehouse 13.

I plan the roleplay to be based in Warehouse 13, only without any of the canon characters or story. If this happens after those characters died, retired, or simply never existed, I will choose later, but my point is that I want fresh agents, fresh Caretaker, and a fresh, new story. This will be our warehouse, our artifacts to play around with.

Explanation as to how the Warehouse works

The Warehouse is a large facility in South Dakota that is able to constantly expand the amount of items held within it, due to being placed right next to a mountain and being underground. It has many different sectors, depending on the objects stored and how dangerous they are considered to be. There is the main area, which contains most of the general artifacts, and it can be considered extremely large, being as far as the eye can see. While it does have an actual end, it is very easy to get lost in it and think the place has no actual end. There are many smaller areas which contain artifacts according to either a time period, being extremely dangerous, or just plain whacky.

The Warehouse is run by a group of people known as the regents, who are a group of average people from all around the world, and they make the large choices for the Warehouse, as well as ensure it runs smoothly. Along with the regents, there is a single person known as the Caretaker. The Caretaker is the person who is directly responsible for the Warehouse, being in direct contact of it and the people running it at all times, when he or she are needed. The Caretaker is given certain special abilities to ensure he has a special connection to the Warehouse, and only very certain people can be chosen.

When it comes to collecting the artifacts, tagging them and managing the inner parts of the Warehouse, there are agents. There can be any number of agents at any given time, and they are only granted access if they were invited by the Caretaker, after the latter has deemed them to be right for the job. They go around the world, chasing the artifacts as they appear on the surface, and after they manage to ensure it harmed no one and move it safely to the Warehouse, they tag it and then place it in the appropiate place, which is usually defined pre-maturely to the artifact's arrival. Once in its proper place, the agents go on to the next case.

There are many more secrets to the Warehouse, and each section that I explained about has a lot more detail to be known, but this is the basic about each section of the general knowledge of the Warehouse and how it runs.)

Basic definition of how an Artifact works

A regular object which was so greatly influenced by an act of the person using it, or by the personality of the user, that it inherited a power which similates the user's action at the time. It is possible for everyone to use most of the different artifacts, but some artifacts are more complex and have certain conditions that need to be met with first, such as, using the artifact on a person you dearly care for, or only on injured people, and so on. It is possible to break most artifacts and thus remove their magic, but some either require a certain way, or cannot be broken at all.

Most artifacts gain their ability at a single, defining moment of the person using it, like making their greatest discovery in life, saving a person, and such. Some can gain their ability after being used many times in the same manner and under the very same condition.

Each object gains both a positive and a negative reaction to it. An example would be John A. Macready's Sunglasses. Upon wearing them, they would gain invisibility to the naked eye, but could still be seen through a camera lens, but after removing them, the wearer would be blind for a period of time which is twice as long as the wearer had the sunglasses on. (Example from the show.)

Now I only have one last question to ask you...

Do you accept an invitation to an Endless Wonder?
