Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) IC Something has happened, something drastic. Whoever you are, wherever you're from, you were taken away. You don't know how, you don't know why. One moment, you were living your everyday-life. In the next? In the heartbeat it took you to blink, your world melted away and was replaced with somewhere else. But you didn't feel anything. There was no wormhole to suck you in, no weird tingle of magic. Whatever happened, you're just in a new place. The technology is very advanced. Anything you might have dreamed it to be, it likely is. Pollution is non-existent, what with the advanced state of the world being all green. The city you found yourself in has tall buildings, a dense population, and just about any sort of creature walking around. It looks like utopia! But something pricks under your skin, something that nags the back of your mind. Something isn't right. You don't know why you're in this new world. Now you need to decide what you're going to do about that. Rules Follow DC Forum rules. Please be respectful to each other. I follow the 3-strikes process. I'm expecting there to be some OP characters. I expect everyone to know how to be fair. No godmodding and/or powerplaying. This is mostly a Sandbox RP with a bit of a driving plot to keep things moving. If you have plot ideas, let me know. Any sort of character is allowed as long as they aren't canon characters. So, no, Spyro is not allowed. But I'd be okay with his long lost cousin, Becky. I will be updating things as the RP progresses. If you need a brief summary to help catch up, I will have one written within the first few posts of the IC thread. Please post all characters in the OOC thread. Characters posted in the IC or PM'd to me will be ignored. Edited October 31, 2016 by Narvix Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) We're alowed OCs of the same species as canonical characters, right? And what's the deal on Dpore? If you don't want to readvthe wiki, Spore's characters... are both canon and OC at the same time. Excepting The Grox Empire, which is canonical as a whole but whose indviduals are OC/canon like the rest. This sounds interesting, and I think I might join!

Posted October 30, 2016 The Spore creatures would be fine. And, yes, similar species are fine. I'm assuming you're thinking of putting in Dusky the Umbreon? Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 Yes. And a Spore creature. Thanks! Reason I asked about Spore js just... character status in its canon is completely weird. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 Hello, it me I have so many OC'S I'd love to throw in. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) The Spore creatures would be fine. And, yes, similar species are fine. I'm assuming you're thinking of putting in Dusky the Umbreon? Wasn't Dusky a Flareon? And I would like to join this. Gotta keep joining the multiverse RPs until one actually ends up lasting... Edited October 30, 2016 by Felixr2 Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 99.9% of forum RPs die before they reach completion, and that's a conservative estimate. If your only goal in joining RPs is to play through to the end, you're going to be very disappointed. Just enjoy the ride ;0 I'm somewhat interested, but this is a pretty bad time for me so I'm probably not going to join. Maybe, though. Share this post Link to post

I know, but I just hope they last like longer than... a single month. I do enjoy the ride, though, just hoping that sometime in the coming years maybe one of the RPs I join reaches a stage than can at least be seen as something like "the end of chapter 1". But yes, I agree the most important part is enjoying the process, and I definitely do; which is why I'm still around. -Of course Choice is an exception, as it was already going on for a loooong time before I joined- Edited October 30, 2016 by Felixr2 Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 I'd like to join in on this! Got a lot of OCs I want to develop. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 30, 2016 I could probably join as well, if you'll allow me. I usually only make characters once I have some context for the world, but I could always just reuse Clarion or Jocelyn from either of my previous ones. Share this post Link to post

Posted October 31, 2016 Username: Narvix Name: Phaenon Age: 237 years Gender: Male Species: Grygon World of Origin: Aclosie Appearance: With two sets of feathered wings, Phaenon possesses the face of a bird of prey. A wicked beak, dark in coloration, protrudes from a face covered in grey feathers. Black scales follow the ridge of his maw, creeping upward towards the crest of white and grey feathers that sprout from the top of his head, back of his neck, and follow his jaw. Piercing green eyes with slitted pupils provide him with a very sharp sight. Down his neck, more grey, white, and black feathers are highlighted by black scales, covering his chest and the upper portion of his forelimbs. Below the elbows, his legs are covered with tan, hardened, skin and he possesses taloned 'hands', each with four digits. Following his body, his torso becomes less feathery a little over halfway down, gradually replaced entirely with black scales. His feet also possess four digits. From the base of his spine sprouts an exceptionally long tail, barbed near the tip with three hooked blades. Overall, he stands roughly 10 feet tall at the shoulders and is approximately 23 feet long, tail included. Personality: Phaenon likes to believe himself a creature of simple comforts. He enjoys thoughtful conversation and pleasant company. Having a soft spot for small creatures, Phaenon tends to see himself as a mentor to all he meets. (Even if someone isn't quite fond of hearing his advice.) If something confuses him, he'll pursue the matter until he comes to an understanding. Sometimes, this brings him to troubling situations, of which he tries to reason his way out. Phaenon doesn't like doing anything that could ruffle or dirty his feathers (or scales), so he tries his best to avoid conflict. But that certainly doesn't make him completely innocent of playing coy or intimidating (especially if it gives him a good laugh). Weapons: Talons, barbed tail, beak. All naturally built in weapons. Powers: -> Let There Be Fire: Your basic fire breath. Phaenon can let loose a steady stream of flames, for approximately three minutes, that can reach up to 8 feet.[Active] -> The Ground Trembles: Phaenon has a limited control over the element of Earth (Soil in his world). Mostly, this is restricted to minor quakes in a small radius but he is able to create tiny avatars. These avatars are always in a set of three and no taller than 4 feet. They resemble bipedal creatures of various species and can't do more than physically interact with the world around them. The avatars have no magical abilities nor possess any physical prowess. [Active] -> The Winds Rage: Phaenon has a stronger control over the element of Wind than he does of Earth. He can control the air currents and stir up raging winds on a whim. [Active] Skills: -> He has a lovely singing voice. -> Phaenon taught himself to read in several different languages. (Not very useful in this new world.) Other: N/A Username: Narvix Name: Kristi Foster Age: 32 years Gender: Demi-female Species: Meta-Human World of Origin: Earth Appearance: Standing at 5'10", Kristi has straight, light brown hair that brushes her shoulders and hazel-colored eyes. She weighs around 146 pounds with an average build and triangular shape. She has a squared facial structure with moderately defined features (high cheekbones, pointed nose, and full lips). Kristi has a light brown complexion and doesn't actually tan; she just gets darker from all her time outside during Spring and Summer. She likes to wear light amounts of makeup, mostly sticking to just eyeliner and mascara with the occasional soft-shade of pink lipstick. Typically, she enjoys wearing sun-dresses of various colors and styles with ankle-high boots that match. If she's not in a sundress, she's in a pair of "short shorts", sneakers, and a tank top. For colder weather, you'll find her bundled up with long jeans, t-shirts, boots, and a jacket. Personality: Kristi is a pretty fun-loving woman who prefers to avoid stressful situations. She's constantly talking, especially when on a subject she loves or knows a lot about. Dedicated to her friends and family, Kristi doesn't like to see anyone in any sort of distress and will always try to lend a helping hand. Many see her as a sort of bubbly person with a soft spot for insects and reptiles alongside with dogs and cats. She does enjoy the company of others and actually prefers it to being alone. In all honesty, she'd much prefer to be out and about to do something instead of staying inside all day. However, that won't stop her from accepting the offer to just cuddle up on the couch and have a movie marathon with friends. As mentioned, Kristi avoids stressful situations as best she can. She can't handle stress very well and often easily falls apart into tears or fits of anger. She'll end up apologizing profusely though for her behavior after she's calmed back down. She won't apologize, however, for standing by her opinions and what she believes to be the right thing to do. If, of course, someone proves her methods or stance wrong, then she'll reconsider but the best you might get is an indirect apology. Weapons: N/A Powers: Spectral Interaction -> I See Dead People: She can see the ghosts of those no longer living in the world, be they buried for centuries or recently drew their last breath. She can't touch them though, they just go right through her. [Passive] -> Whispers From the Grave: Not only can she see them but she can hear what the deceased have to say. However, the only way she can respond to them is by speaking out loud. [Passive] -> You Owe Me a Favor: To some extent, she can compel a ghost or two to do something - be it interfering with someone's life or finding specific information for her. However, she has a harder time with forcing the ghosts of recently deceased individuals to do what she wants as they still cling to the concept of living a lot more viciously. [Active] Skills: -> Kristi is pretty fair at understanding a situation and solving the various problems with it. -> Since her ability can't be turned "on" or "off", she has perfected her poker face and is no longer phased by gruesome things. -> Her body doesn't exactly show it but she is rather athletic and makes a decent runner or gymnast. Other: -> Megan's identical twin. -> She's working on it but Kristi isn't the best at accepting when she is wrong. -> She is terrified of deep water. If she can't touch the ground, she won't get near it. -> Kristi isn't always able to read people as well as she'd like. Username: Narvix Name: Megan Foster Age: 32 years Gender: Agender Species: Meta-Human World of Origin: Earth Appearance: Since they're identical twins, Megan has the same height, build/shape, eye and hair color as Kristi. They do weigh a few pounds heavier though due to muscle toning. Their hair is cropped short and often spiked using hair gel, either for a duck tail at the back or a ruffled appearance. They'll wear eyeliner from time to time but nothing else beyond that for makeup. Preferably, Megan enjoys wearing tank tops of various colors and designs, cargo capris, and a thin flannel jacket with sneakers. If it's too cold, they'll take to sweatpants and thicker coats. Personality: Megan is the quieter of the two but also more prone to short bursts of temper. Since their head is constantly riddled with the invading thoughts of others, they don't particularly enjoy the company of other people and are always curbing their tongue in conversations. (Megan can't reveal they are able to read minds after all.) With their short temper, Megan sometimes tries to avoid fights. However, they don't mind fighting dirty and letting their tongue (or fists) fly unchecked. Megan is often a cynical person without any large hopes for the future. While they're not strictly pessimistic, they label themself a harsh realist and prefer to keep their expectations low. They can manage their stress pretty decently, using art as a way to vent any frustrations they have or daily exercise. Weapons: N/A Powers: Mind Reading -> I Know Your Secrets: First and foremost, the most basic of their sub-abilities. They are able to read the minds of others, listening to all of their thoughts without detection. It's a bit hard to turn this off though so it makes for quite the distraction or headache. [Passive] -> Poison in Your Thoughts: If they wish to, they can force themself into someone's mind and alter that person's thoughts. Their limited to how much will power the "victim" has but, unless they're a fellow/powerful mind reader, it doesn't take long for them to achieve what they set out to do. [Active] -> Linking Our Minds: Alternatively, they can act like a conduit, letting up to five people enter their own thoughts. In basic terms, they act like a communication device allowing for people to utilize telepathy when they wouldn't be able to otherwise. This poses a lot of risks though as anyone could alter their thoughts in this state. [Active] Skills: -> Megan is physically fit with a fair amount of stamina and strength. -> Though without any particular form, they are a decent challenge in a fist fight. Other: -> Kristi's identical twin. -> Their abilities are strong from years of development and inability to "turn off". -> They have chronic migraines that sometimes affects their vision. -> Megan is terrified of storms. -> They are a sucker for kittens.

Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) Username: Dusky_Flareon Name: Dusky/Hellfire Age: 16 Gender: Agender (Any pronouns EXCEPT he/him acceptable. Do NOT use he/him.) Species: Flareon World of Origin: Pokémon Appearance: Dusky- Mostly similar to a normal Flareon. However, the yellow parts of her body are blood red, and the orange parts dark grey. Her eyes are bright green and have slitted pupils. A strand of red fur hangs from her head tuft over her right eye. Hellfire- A large Flareon, missing the creamy fur (which instead is replaced by short black fur). The other fur is also pitch black, with scales poking out in various locations, oozing blood. Hellfire has a pointed, longer muzzle as well. Her tail is long and muscular, looking like a dragon's tail, with a red flame at the end. Red fire wreaths her neck as well, and appears where a head tuft would be. She also has dracomic wings with two wing fingers and a wing thumb, conncted by frayed and torn membrane. The tears in the membrane ooze blood. The top side of the membrane is a black like the rest of her coat, but the bottom side has a fuiey glow and is a gradient ranging from yellow near the wing arm to red at the edges. Personality: Dusky- Dusky seems quiet. She has a tendency to keep her mouth shut unless outright asked something - which even then, she may try to dodge the question - or she decides to speak up. She doesn't notice when she is feeling emotion unless it is extreme, but she will act out that emotion without noticing. As a result, she dislikes her emotions and tries to keep a clamp on them. If there's one thing she seems to hunger for, it's validation in the form of approval or praise for her actions. However, extreme anger, sorrow, and emotional pain cause her to snap and turn into Hellfire. Betrayals also cause her to turn into Hellfire from anger. Hellfire- Hellfire is vicious, barely giving a whit about... anything. What she mostly cares about is how fast she can kill the current object of interest and what can kill her next. Hellfire has a tendency to go on destructive, firey rampges that leave area burned up and plenty of glass/ash behind if her opponejt fails to fight back. If her opponent fights back, she becomes an all-out attacker with little regard for the surrounding area and whatever may be in it, even using bystanders to her advantage (living shields, hostages, watch me kill them, etc). Hellfire reverts back to Dusky if calmed down. Weapons: Claws, teeth, paws, fire breath. Flight as Hellfire. Powers: Pyrokinesis - control over fire. Immunity to fire. Flash Fire - Absorbs fire, natural or magical, and powers up intrinsic fire abilities and fire magic. Skills: Would intelligence count? Other: I will fade to black when a transformation between the two forms happens - the transformation involves bones growing/shrinking first, the muscle, then skin and is rather gorey. Let me know if Hellfire's too gory or too OP (I didn't include her in Warped!Dusky due to gore potential). Do you mind if I add the Spore character later? Edited November 1, 2016 by Dusky_Flareon Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 You can add the Spore creature later. As for the gender of Dusky, you can always use Genderfluid, Non-binary, Agender, etc. I don't have a good link to give you but i definitely suggest searching the web a bit. The details were fine and you don't have to "fade black" for transformations as long as you don't describe every little thing in excruciating detail. I'll put Dusky up later tonight or tomorrow and you can post with her once the RP is started. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) Alright, I'll use Agender for Dusky, editing the form. Thanks for letting me know Hellfire's good. Edit: Form edited. Edited October 31, 2016 by Dusky_Flareon Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 Alright, character sheets are listed in the IC. I'll be starting the thread tonight once I'm off work. People are free to submit character sheets/join the RP whenever they please. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 Fixed some typos in Dusky's sheet. I HATE not seeing typos till too late... Share this post Link to post
Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Nothing like that new RP smell. Username: TehUltimateMage Name: Erin Laflamme Age: 21 Gender: Female Species: Human World of Origin: Earth (Alternate Universe): Modern world earth where magic and dragons are commonplace. Appearance: Erin stands at around 5'7, although she seems shorter because of her poor posture. Her face and frame are bony and pointy, giving her an unintentionally dangerous look highlighted by narrow bored eyes and a slight pout. Her orange hair, natural but clashing with her tan complexion, is pinned up in a messy bun with locks falling all over her face as if she can't decide if she wants to hide behind her bangs. Forgoing the fashion revival of wizard robes, she goes for a classic combination of a hoodie underneath a coat of many pockets, paired with jeans and hiking boots, all in neutral and unassuming colors. Personality: Deadpan and sarcastic, Erin has very underwhelming reactions to everything. Even with her ability to see through illusions, she has the habit of dismissing strange events and tries not to get involved in things -- although things have a habit of involving her. She is very practical-minded; a quick thinker, improviser, and her pockets are filled with every which thing she might need (matches, rope, multi-tool, and pocketwatch to name a few). Weapons: N/A Powers: Null: Erin is known as a Null, meaning that she is unable to use magic (which is a learned skill in her universe); however, she is also unable to be affected by magic. The effects of being a Null are passive and constantly on, and affect only herself. A purely magical attack may get absorbed completely, but spells that use the elements are fair game. Jammed Signals: Any operation of magitech by her is straight up impossible, and sources of mana cease to work in her vicinity. Magic locks and barriers are rendered useless. Depending on the source, this effect may or may not be permanent. Erin jokingly says that this jamming effect extends to electronics in general, and so most things she uses are mechanical and anachronistic. Eyes of Clarity: Erin can see through illusions and glamor, but will just as easily dismiss a vampire as just a human wearing fangs. Mind control, mind reading, and other sensory tricks are useless. Skills: Erin knows a little of many things, although nothing has really kept her interest for very long. Her survival skills are decent and so is her cooking; she likes to rebelliously go places (freerunning) but never anywhere too dangerous (since she has to rely on her natural healing) and will usually return home eventually. She does carry a harmonica with her to get some practice in while wasting time. Other: Unemployed. ~~~ There she is, my Nanowrimo child(*not related to any other laflammes i have, probably). Let me know if her anti-magic ability is alright like this. There's definitely ways to find loopholes around it, but I'm pretty firm on the 'dead zone' concept. Edited November 1, 2016 by TehUltimateMage Share this post Link to post
Posted November 1, 2016 Omf she's perf I'll add her to the list. Currently working on the starting post so stay tuned! Share this post Link to post
Posted November 1, 2016 @Narvix Oooohhh, I feel like the biggest idiot ever now. Dusky's supposed to have the Flash Fire ability. Can it be added to her sheet as "Flash Fire - Absorbs fire, and powers up intrinsic fire abilities and fire magic." Re:Spore charaYes, I'm adding them, but I'd like to make sure the species I have in mind I iploaded to Spore.com. Share this post Link to post
