@Hammerman I've got no problems with your CS, though I should mention the initial transformation and the events that lead to it (which is where the RP begins, actually) are somewhat violent; not to an exaggerated Hollywood extent though, kind of like being mugged suddenly at night. Nothing that actually affects anything in your CS, but just thinking you'd want to know.
@TheHangedMan Oh yeah, I have to ask, should I make a character that's already a veteran magical girl or should I make a newbie one? If the latter, I kinda need the plot reason on how and why she got chosen to be a magical girl.
Hmm, I was thinking no veterans for now, though if you'd like to co-GM and help me out I can let it happen. Though you'd only be slightly more experienced than the others. Is that fine?
Fuck, I'm gonna go for it
For the "Picture/Description", were you implicating that you'd personally draw the character or find a fitting picture? Just 'cause the former would be pretty cool of you
o shit i just remembered this was an interest thread
I'd be drawing them personally, yes. It's a hobby, though like I said, it'd take me about a week or so to finish though I can guarantee quality at least
Nice to see you. Anyway, think of it like this - if you had a whole globe full of girls with magical abilities that made them practically super soldiers, each divided into their own spheres of influence, and competing over a somewhat limited resource, what do you get?
Politics. Oh and fighting and stuff. But mostly politics.
Since before civilization, mankind has always feared the dark - or rather, that which lies beneath it. Horrors that roam as mere ideas for us when we are in the safety of day, and come to a twisted, wretched life at dusk. Ever and always, man has devised ways to fend off the darkness, methods both real and imagined. This fear led to the explosive expansion of man - this fear developed fire, agriculture, medicine. From this fear, civilization was born. The mad scramble to drive away the darkness had urged mankind ever forward.
And yet, it is also this same fear that kept the darkness alive.
The fear that gave birth to civilization had also borne with it . . .
Theft . . .
Cowardice . . .
Genocide . . .
Evil . . .
And with the birth of evil, the abominations that resided in the void us laughed and swelled in numbers and strength. They fed upon evil, and grew into true, living horrors -- horrors that spilled upon the reality of our world. And with evil as its sword and fear as its shield, horror encroached upon mankind. The corruption eroded at the roots of a budding civilization, threatening to kill humanity before the concept even existed. And Man was nearly driven back into the darkness, were it not for one thing:
Sacrifice
Just as fear had borne evil, evil had birthed sacrifice and courage. With the tools given to them by the enemy itself, mankind pushed back. The idea that death meant nothing, so long as those around them could live and love as they wished, resonated throughout the earth, and the horrors were driven back into the dark, and faded into legend, to disappear from collective human memory.
Still, humanity would not easily forget that which nearly eradicated them. Though society as a whole has forgotten what it meant to fear the darkness, there are those that still carry the burden of those memories, and the responsibility that comes with it; the responsibility to fight with your life on the line, knowing that they are the only one's that can. They stand as stalwart sentinels against the night. They are the torch bearers that light the path to tomorrow, with a flame of hope borne from their sacrifice.
The Kispu Sinnis Wardatu
The Magical Girl.
So yeah, this is, as you've guessed, a magical girl RP. On the specifics of the magical girl lore here, I'll leave it blank - that, and many others will be covered in the RP proper, as I want this to be a learning experience. As for what I can say about the RP:
Gonna be a lot of politicking here
Characters are limited to females only as of now, with ages ranging from 12 - 16
Expect the lore and magic system to be somewhat complex, with the lore being the heavier of the two.
Expect a lot of NPC's from me and any co-GM I choose; it's kinda necessary
The story is global by nature, so feel free to make a character who lives or comes from any nation without worry. The setting is nebulous by nature.
HAVE FUN, BECAUSE I KNOW I WILL.
As for the rules, it should be obvious: Basic RP rules, no godmodding, yadda yada, ect.
Need at least 4 players to start with.
[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b] (Ages 11~16)
[b]Nationality:[/b] (by residence)
[b]Picture/Description:[/b] (If you want a picture but can't find one that suits your needs, you can send me a description of you're character, and I'll have a picture up in a week or two, generally)
[b]Abilities:[/b] (Leave this blank for now! Your abilities will be gained at the start of the RP, but while they may be something you [i]made[/i] it won't necessarily be something you [i]chose.[/i])
Honestly, I promised myself that I'd only GM another game if I could get a handle balancing it along with everything else IRL, or risk shutting it down abruptly. I don't want that to happen again, at least, I don't want to be the explicit cause of it again, so I'm gonna ask someone to co-GM with me to lighten the load, if anyone is willing.
Eh, it's your character. Asides from the fact that it's from one of my games there's nothing really for me to say . . . well, asides from the fact that the incident that took place would never realistically happen in-universe, and even if it did, Cedric is the least likely to survive imo.
Interested, depending on which era of Mahou Shoujo we're going with. Personally, my favorite era was the Cardcaptor Sakura one, followed closely by Lyrical Nanoha up until ViVid, sans Record. Of course, I just really wanna do a Mahou Shoujo RP. If you want, I can link an old RP I did (that kinda died out due to inactivity but whatever) for reference.

My World
|| FAMILY MEMBERS ||
Michael Jenzel Lazaro (Father) - Works as a human resource manager and practicing psychologist; a very relaxed person, but undoubtedly sharp and terribly shrewd. Very little gets by him. One hell of a basketball player, and quite the charmer.
Nina Marie Emmanuel (Mother) - Businesswoman, stern, strict, a bit of a control freak, and has trouble expressing her feelings, but is a very sweet person underneath. Gets embarrassed easily if you push the right buttons. A talented singer who cares immensely for her family.
Marcus Jesus Dimalanta Emmanuel (Grandfather) - A retired Army veteran, and grandfather on Ser's maternal side. Moved in with the family at her request; divorced amicably from his first wife before remarrying. His second wife died six years ago. As stern and disciplined as his daughter but no less caring. Old, but tough, and a mean shot with a gun.
Leah Adarna Emmanuel Lazaro (Sister) - Ser's younger sister by two years. A star volleyball player in her highschool, and a bit of a princess and a hopeless romantic. Wants a puppy; she's probably gonna get it.
