Rift Warriors X (Sci-fi/Isekai RP)

The year is 2045, and the world is gaming community is holding its breath as legendary video game developer Ryuichi Masada is set to announce his latest project. The auditorium and streams go wild he reveals Rift Warriors X - the latest entry in his trademark fighting game series Rift Warriors - only to be stunned when, after the teaser, Masada declares that X will not only be the final entry in the series! Adding to the shock, Masada claims he's only produced FIVE copies of the game which will be distributed to the top five Rift Warriors IX players worldwide in a few months time. What followed was a mad dash by players across the globe to climb the competitive ladder in the hopes of reaching the top five and becoming a candidate for earning this new game.

When the digital dust settled, the five players were recognized and each received a copy of Rift Warriors X. However, when they started up the game, there were no fighters available. All they saw was a blank slate on the character selection screen. Suddenly, each of the players are sucked into their respective gaming consoles and wake up only to find themselves in the world of Rift Warriors! Somehow, the players have been turned into the five characters they mained when they battled in the ranks to win their copies of X. What has caused this to occur? How will they escape? What is the secret of Rift Warriors X? Apply to join and find out!

Ever wonder what it would be like if various characters from across history could battle it out? Well that's what Ryuichi Masada dreamed about ever since he was in grade school. Upon graduating and joining up with a fledgling game company, Okami Sun Games, Masada created the first ever Rift Warriors game. Rift Warriors was a beat'em-up fighting game where fictional characters from across time were sucked into a pocket dimension known only as The Rift. When inside, they were tasked by a strange Entity known as "The Messenger" to battle against the other summoned warriors and earn their way home. To make things more 'interesting' The Messenger granted each warrior summoned a unique set of superhuman abilities depending on the era in which they were summoned and attuned to their unique characteristics.

With each passing sequel, more warriors would find themselves being dragged into The Rift. As the series went on, the lore behind The world of The Rift as well as the enigmatic Messenger would grow as well. However, the lore that was revealed was rarely - if ever - enough to explain the plot of the games, often leaving FNAF-sized debates going on in various internet forums. With the announcement of Rift Warriors X, Masada claimed that "all will be revealed" which led many to believe this would be the game that finally gave a clear answer as to what the real story of Rift Warriors actually was. That made the limited release and subsequent competition all the more surprising when it happened.

So for this rp you will be making two characters. The first will be your character. This is the player who became one of the top 5 Right Warriors IX players in the real world. In addition, you will be making a second character who will serve as your player's 'main' in the game world. This character can be from any point in human history, and will have unique abilities based on their time period. (For example, a Viking character may have the ability to manipulate ice and snow, or a Cold-War Russian soldier could manifest nuclear bombs or weaponize radiation). Make sure to apply the character's abilities into the respective movesets.

Ideally, the Rift Warriors character would be a fictional person from whatever time period you choose, BUT I'm open to the possibility of non-human characters so long as you check with me first before submitting it. Outside of that, you are free to develop the character's backstory and powers as much as you wish. Just don't make them overly broken or the players would be screaming at the devs for not fixing an unbalanced character.

As for posts, I'd ideally like at least two paragraphs per post on this one to keep the story moving since this one is going to be exposition heavy at the start, but that's just a guideline. With that being said, the character sheet outline is posted below. Let's have some fun, and I'll see you in The Rift!

IC should hopefully be up sometime tonight and we can get started!

@Morgannis Not a fan of the art style personally, but I’m not gonna judge. Art’s subjective so change it if you wish.

Rift Warriors X: An Isekai Rp

@Morgannis That should be fine. I figured it was the case, but I realized too late - as a writer usually does - that I didn’t think of how a timeline would work for Rift Warriors as a franchise given that most major games spend years in development.

Rift Warriors X: An Isekai Rp

@Morgannis A good first entry. One thing I want to point out, Rift Warriors is a LONG running franchise in this universe. For references sake, think of it like Mortal Kombat or Pokémon in this universe. Most people who were there for the very first game are going to be a bit on the older side.

Other than that, individual moves are fine. However what I meant was the characters in the game are granted unique “super powers” that their move sets are based around. For example, Capt. Wickham could become the sea herself and can summon creatures, weapons, and “drowned sailors” from her body to attack.

Oh lovely. Our cup runneth over!

Working on the IC, but if we can get possibly one more player we’re good.

@Morgannis Think of like a cross between Mortal Kombat/Street Fighter and Smash Bros.

No worries. I probably set a bad example already. Haha
