    Oh, you silly peoples...it's not the size of the plot that counts; it's what you write in it. Now how about you say something about that instead? =O Anyways, I realize that this is largely moot since the RP has already been posted, but:

    humanus. These creatures were called this for there humanoid shape, ( These are basically humans)

    Umm...dude, the word 'humanoid' means 'something that resembles a human'. Humans (unless horribly disfigured) are always humanoid in shape because their shape is the definition of the word. This is a divine decision so I really don't see why you bothered to justify the naming in the first place. Just say they were called 'humanus' and leave it at that. =O

    There are also lots of grammatical irregularities here, but what bugs me is mostly that there seems to be a distinct leaning towards quantity over quality here. If we're going to be all organized about this with set amounts of money, items and whatnot I find it odd that you have been very vague about both the skills and the magic system. So we use these 'arguments'...umm...how exactly do we go about using them? What do they look like? What do they do? What kind of spells do you get out of how many arguments? The same lack of info plagues the races (I mean, we have a very brief summary of their general abilities, but what about lifespans, maturing rates and general attitudes towards them? Whereabouts are they found and how common are they? What kind of societies do these races form? These are important factors in giving the character a credible history.) I'd also like to see the skills graced with more than one line of description. What, for instance, is the difference between the chemist and herblore skills? Both just say 'this person makes potions'. =O Now original worlds are all well and good (I like original worlds, honest.) but you shouldn't overcomplicate matters. You also have a 'god worshiped' field on the sign-up but you have given absolutely zero description on what these gods are like and what they demand of their followers; that's going to make it difficult to make the right choice for a character (I mean, what if I accidentally made my uber-pacifist goody two-shoesy, wouldn't-hurt-a-fly character worship a deity who demands his followers to sacrifice their first-born child by strangling it with the intestines of a still-living goat at new moon? That...wouldn't go over too well.).

    Personally, I think this whole thing would be a lot better with half the number of things in each category properly explained. Again, it's not the numbers that count; it's the quality of the goods. :3

    @Shiney: Well, it would help if you didn't base all your plots on animes I haven't watched... AAANYWAY, there's not really much I can say about that since that plot seems to assume that I know how this whole spirit world thingiemajigger works (which I don't). You've got a very basic aim for the plot laid down, but what I'd like to see is a clear starting setting. So we're somewhere in a lightly futuristic human world hunting demons who are somewhere else? I think you need to be a bit more specific than that. Also, if these demons possess some unknown means of transportation (and goodness knows what other exceptional powers they have), why is a bunch of rookies sent to deal with it? You'd think that they'd be stuck with handling interdimensional loitering or something while the experienced people deal with the important stuff. o.O So, uh...a bit of clarification, please?

    Frozen Wind

    In a land called Mystifall, lay many odd and mystifying things. The land is hilly in most areas, covered in mystifying forests, and much more. The creatures that inhabit this land are filled with as much mystery as the land itself. There lay Dragons, Pegasus, Elves, Giants, and other wondrous things. The king, Valsour, since being placed in order has changed the once free filled land into a place filled with rules. After a witch grouped together other mystical beasts to over throw the king, he has banned all magic, leaving witches, warlocks and others without being able to take hold in wars or anything for that matter. Then, after finding a queen, the two decided to give birth to an heir to their throne. When he was born, they gave him the name of Vincent. The queen wanted both a girl and a boy so that the throne may have the strength of a warrior and the heart of a healer. The king and queen hired a psychic, the only type of witchcraft that was left alone. The fortune teller told them that they would give birth to two other children who would be twins. One would be a girl and the other, a boy. They would name the girl Kilala, and the male, Ziratheus, with the boy being the oldest by an hour. By the next three years, the king and queen had finally given birth to the twins just as the psychic stated.

    As years passed, the three siblings grew together, playing around the castle they lived in. During that time, Ziratheus seemed to have an interest in witchcraft and other psychic abilities. This gave the King and Queen a scare, until they took action and got him a trainer who would soon teach him how to battle using no psychic talents. This would surely take his mind off those distractions, the King and Queen thought. The other children were as the two rulers had hoped. Kilala; The gentle, and Vincent; The Strong. One night in the castle, Ziratheus over heard his parents conversation about how Vincent and Kilala would be great rulers together, but not once did he hear his name. This brought jealousy and hate to his heart. The next day, while Kilala sat in the garden, picking flowers, Ziratheus walked up to her and gave her a drink that he had poisoned. Later that day, she decided to give the drink to Vincent, being the kind hearted girl she was. The day after, Vincent got ill, and when the King and Queen ordered a doctor, he stated that he had been poisoned.

    As the family mourned for this event, Kilala stunned everyone by healing her brother magically. Valsour then allowed the practice of magic so long that it be done for healing use only. Ziratheus was most interested in this ability, he figured that if they were both twins, he could surely use healing powers, but sadly, he could not, no matter how hard he tried. Then, one day, as he practiced, he stumbled upon a discovery, he could move objects with his mind. He gained many evil ideas from this. The next night, he ran away from the castle, leaving a note stating: I hope your kingdom prospers in this land, for when I master my abilities, I want to crush you all…especially Vincent and Kilala...Tell them to prepare themselves for a war that will soon come when they are the rulers of the throne. I will become the King of this land and when I do, I shall be more powerful than any of this land.

    Now, in this land, the Queen has died but Valsour lives on and has given up his throne to Kilala and Vincent. As rulers, they have taken a stand, worked together, and have turned this land into a loving place that it once was. Although with good comes evil. Since being in rule, Kilala gave all rights back to the practice of all magic, hoping it would help with the threat that Ziratheus had made. Although, Ziratheus is not the only evil, but also a group of witches who are attempting to take over the throne so that they can obtain a mystical orb hidden in its walls that has been rumored to have more power than a god. This orb has been locked away, told not to be used unless the lives of the land depended on it, but the effect of having the orb is that your good energy is overtaken by evil, making you a vessel of a demon. The witches who have gathered together plan on using this orb to summon the devil himself to bring ruin to the world.

    Lately, in the land of Mystifall, a tornado has appeared, it is believed to be the work of Ziratheus. The towns people, still living, have claimed that where ever the tornado goes, the area it hits, becomes absolute zero, freezing anything that had been there. No one has gotten close enough to observe this monstrous cyclone, but it also seems that it leaves behind rocks that have diamond like crystals randomly placed on them. It has been just discovered that after a week, the area that has been frozen, becomes defrosted, but nothing that had been frozen could live through that temperature.

    You are a simple towns person who has traveled to an area where the tornado hit and you have found one of these crystal filled rocks. The next day, Kilala and Vincent announce that if you are in possession of one of the rocks, you must report to the castle as soon as possible.

    This RP is based on pure fiction so you may start your character any where you want. You come up with his/her home and what routes they take to get to the castle. Just know that the destination you are heading is called Heavanus.

    So basically, it's like your own story book. You make up the story of your character like you are reading a book like "Little Red Ridding Hood."

    Humanus is just some unoriginal way to give Human a more fantasy name. Just like how Chaotic made magic sound like Mugic. Which is just some wierd letter. What was more original was how Fable called Magic "Will". Anyway I would recommend to Fallen that he renames Humans to something completely different or just call them humans

    Strife Delivery Service. (A FF Rp)

    Back story

    It had been over a year since Cloud had defeated Sephiroth and cured all who had Geostigma, life had gone back to normal, at least as normal as Cloud Strife's life could get. Just because the planet was no longer super pissed didn't mean that the monsters had totally disappeared. Although they were less frequent Cloud still found the Ride from Madger to Asuse, (a small town to the far north) a treturase journey. Cloud was well aware that all of the monsters recognized the sound of his bike and would attack him if they were feeling particularly bold.

    After an hours worth of Riding Cloud stumbled across a creature he had never seen before, it was a tiny golden bird. At first Cloud thought, What luck a Gold Chocobo! Running over and taking it in his hands he realized that it was far to small to even be a baby Chocobo. Yet it didn't see to fear him so taking it as a good luck token he fashioned a small cage out of branches with one hand, for he feared that if he let the animal go it would fly away.

    With the bird in its makeshift cage Cloud rode the remaining miles safely arriving in Asuse just as the sun was setting. Taking the Parcel from the old man who had called him not more then two hours earlier, Cloud looks at the destination written on the package, Medger. What Luck, he could go back home much faster today, he looks down at the silent creator in the cage attached to his bike, "Guess you really are-"

    The animal starts screeching and fluttering looking at him with wild eyes, Cloud hears an odd snicker, "I hope you enjoy your new delivery service…" a voice whispers behind Cloud's back, turning slowly cold sweat running down the back of his neck, Cloud faces the one who had spoken.

    His pupils dilate and his breath comes in short gasps, Blue eyes, White hair, an evil smile and his own screaming was all Cloud knew before he was taken by darkness.

    Morning found him asleep in his own bed, Was it all a dream? he wondered as he woke, standing and looking about the room he nods, everything seemed to be in order. Checking himself over he found that his pant leg was only slightly torn, "When did I-" a light chirping catches his attention.

    Cloud turns slowly fearing what he might see and there in a cage on the bed post sat the small golden bird. "NO!" is all Cloud was able to cry before he backed up to far and ended up breaking and falling out of, the window.

    Cloud lands hard on the concrete sidewalk in front of Seven Heaven. "Cloud!" Mariline cried running outside and kneeling next to his unconscious body.

    Opening his eyes, again, Cloud saw Tifa looking down at him, The rays of the sun surrounded her head like a halo, "Did I die?" Cloud asks making her laugh.

    "No." she says covering her mouth and helping him up.

    Cloud rubs the back of his head, "How did I get back?" he asks.

    "Back?! You haven't even left this week." She says surprised.

    Cloud blinks then notices something strange, Tifa's eyes… they were green. Looking around him, Cloud started noticing things that were different, for starters, Seven heaven had five floors, "Cloud are you Ok?" Tifa's voice was muffled as though under water.

    Cloud hat fallen out of a window on the fifth floor, he struggles for breath as he notices a Black Red XIII that lay tied to a post next to a sign that said, 'Silver Tears.' "Is Cloud alright?" Came a familiar and forbidden voice.

    Cloud turned trembling and what he saw made his knees buckle, Sephiroth was walking over, white hair flowing behind him a concerned look on his face. Cloud tried to say something before he ended up in a strange kneeling position on the ground. Cloud could only watch awestruck as Sephiroth embraced Tifa and kissed her lightly on the cheek.

    Cloud got a sudden urge to vomit, this was so wrong. Cloud was trembling staring at his hands he remembers something, if the bird was here then maybe, "the package…" he whispers.

    "What did you say?" Sephiroth asks leaning close trying to hear him.

    Cloud stands up so fast that it looked as though he were sitting on a spring. As his head snapped up he hit Sephiroth in the face. Not caring that Sephiroth had to stumble back to nurse a broken nose, Cloud runs toward the garage were he normally kept his motorcycle, and he did find it in there, only it had a sign attached to the front that stated 'Strife Delivery Service.' Cloud walked around the bike, the sign was the only difference, "where is that package?" he wonders leaving the garage, "My room!" he decides. Running around the building he passes Tifa and Sephiroth who were in each others arms, inside the Silver Tears bar he pats Denzel and Mariline on top of their heads and starts up the stairs.

    "My room is up at the top." He says as he starts up the wooden stairs, he passes the second floor, he glances a red headed Cid with tattoos up and down his arms, he was laughing and shouting into a cell phone, "I know Reno, if it hadn't been for Sephiroth we would all be dead. You're right he is a hero."

    Cloud shakes his head, this is so weird, the third floor Barrett and Kadaj were arm wrestling while Yazoo made out with Yuffie. Loz was on a laptop chatting away with a messenger Cloud had never seen before. Kadaj turns to look at Cloud as he goes by, he beats Barrett and waves blowing Cloud a kiss.

    Cloud shakes and heads up to the forth floor. He was forced to stop at the first door, Aerith? he stands in the door way, she was singing gently to a very small brunet baby that lay in a cradle next to a couch were Zack sat watching and talking to what appeared to be his beautiful wife, for a ring glittered on the ring finer of each. Maybe this place isn't so- his thoughts are interrupted by the shriek of his golden bird.

    Coming to his senses he heads up to his room, the bird was being attacked by, "SIT CITH!" Cloud shouts clapping his hands, "Get away from that cage!" the cat responds immediately and runs out of the room.

    Cloud sighs and closes the door, "What else could go wrong?!"

    A hammering from his window, he turns and spies Vincent, hammering a board to Cloud's once broken window. He catches Cloud staring, "it was unseemly." Is all he says before he leaves the room.

    Cloud looks at the bird, "Vincent the perfectionist." Cloud laughs, "You remember how it used to be don't you?" he asks the twittering creature.

    He searches the room to no avail, "Where is that-" he spies something under the bed, "Well what do you know…?" he reaches under the bed and reads the sticker, "To Cloud; Medger." He chuckles, "Just had to be…." He opens the package and inside there are six smaller packages each with a different name and destination attached. Pulling them out he reads them silently, a letter sat at the bottom of the package, he grabs it and opens it. It read:

    letter said:
    My dearest Cloud,
    In case you haven't guessed, you must deliver these packages to each of the people written. That is of course if you ever want to get back home. These people are the only ones who remember how your world really was, it's your choice, live like this or return to how it was.
    Remember Cloud, your life isn't the only one changed.

    Lovingly yours,
    Sephiroth

    Cloud puts the letter down and looks at the bird, "Looks like I have some deliveries to make." Cloud says taking the packages and the bird.

    Running all the way down he waves back to anyone who waved at him. When he get's to the ground floor he passes Tifa saying, "I have stuff to deliver, I'm taking my bird so that the Cat won't eat it."

    He didn't wait for Tifa or Sephiroth to answer him, he did however have to shoo Cid away from his bike, he and Reno looked like they wanted to add wings to it. Cloud straddles his bike and attaches the bird's cage to his belt and places the parcels on a pack attached to the bike. Cloud popped open the sheaves on either side of the bike, his swords glittered and winked at him, "At least one thing went right today."

    "Are you leaving Cloud?" A kind voice asks forcing Cloud to turn around, Aearith stood there concern in her eyes her hands crossed over her chest. "How long will you be gone this time?"

    "Don't know, as long as it takes." Cloud says turning away and trying not to sound edgy.

    "You know how much I hate it when you're gone." She hugs him forcing him back slightly, "Promise you'll come back safe darling." She says on the verge of tears.

    Clouds' eyes widen, Darling…? he yanks off the glove on his left hand, a golden band that was engraved with Aertih's name shimmered in the sunlight, he turns his eyes to look at her, "yea…" is all he could say.

    Aerith releases him and steps back, "Can't keep your customers waiting."

    Cloud shakes off the trance, putts on his goggles and glove. He rides off into the sunset, "This is so cruel…" he whispers trying not to cry. Looking back he sees Aerith waving, Cloud waves back then disappears.

    Cloud's heart had never been so torn…

    Here's the thing, all I have is the back story, now if I were to make this an Rp everyone would have to be the people trying to convince Cloud to go back to the way life was, what do you guys think?

    Golden Sun: New Journeys

    2 years after 8 adepts managed to light the elemental lighthouses the adepts of the world rejoiced. However this was short lived since this merely reversed the worlds unraveling at a slow pace.

    However a cult-like order called the "Bagons" has risen in Weyard. Acting in the shadows they have been acting just like the wise one predicted. To try and take the world over with the use of alchemy and Psynergy. However since Psynergy is still an unknown art the people of Weyard are currently defenseless from their power.

    After it was revealed that Vale had been buried underneath the ground Isaac and his friends began rebuilding it from the ground up. Slowly after 2 years Vale was rebuilt and it was thought peace would last forever. The rest of the Adepts went back to their respective towns to relax after their large journey around the world. Lemuria's fog had finally disappeared and ships could now trade to the now growing city

    The wise one who had predicted that the world would be conquered by one selfish being set out and sought 8 new adepts. Ones who would eventually meet each other and work towards one goal. To stop the "Bagons". One thing they would have in common. They would be mentored by an adept that shared their same element

    Your role
    ~~~~~~

    You are a regular person. You are not an adept yet. However eventually you will hear about this new cult known as the "Bagons". Will you take the mantel of adept up or will you find the greed within you surface and join this cult. The choice is yours. One thing that you will do first is get mentored by an adept of your specific element and you will eventually become an adept

    Sheet
    ~~~~~~

    Name: (What your name is)
    Gender: (Self explanitory)
    Age: (Self explanitory. Teenage years)
    Personality: (What you act like)
    Town currently inhabiting: (Lemuria, Vale, Kalay, Imil, Lalivero)
    Mentor: (What adept you are mentored by. It has to be a protagonist from the past golden sun games)
    History: (What you have done in your life)
    Rp Sample: (Sample of your writing)

    I'v been working on a Digimon Rp that I was going to start here, but there's already one that seem's to be going well. I don't want to start mine if it's not going to do anything and I don't want to kill the other one. Would it be better to start it some where else? If so where?

    I'm steel working on the story so I wont be ready to start it for a week or so. I'm also thinking of making a map for it.

    Shadowcat I think I can work out a compromise with you if you want. I can either help you work in some of the plot into my rp or I can help you write the plot for yours either way. Anyway it doesnt matter weather or not you kill mine or not. Since I might as well join yours anyway

    I've had an idea for a Digimon-based RPG that I've been trying to get up and running. Here's the introduction/summary/whatever for it. I'd love to hear what people think and if anyone would be interested if I got this up and off the ground.

    Digital Guardians: Ragnarok Virus

    When the Digital World was first formed, it existed in an era of peace. The Five Harmonious Ones were the Sovereigns of the Digital World, and their rule was a fair and just one. They ruled over all things in the Digital World, and conflict and war was almost nonexistent, but things were bound to change. Eventually, a life form by the name of Apocalymon came into being, and his very existence warped the reality of the Digital World. He assembled a giant following of evil Digimon and attempted to usurp control of the Digital World from the Harmonious Ones, and he nearly succeeded. However, the Harmonious Ones managed to bring a group of humans into the Digital World. The humans' ability to accelerate the evolution of their Digimon partners allowed them to overcome Apocalymon's forces and the leader of the Harmonious Ones, the giant dragon Fanglongmon, sacrificed himself in order to defeat the Apocalymon.

    With the remnants of the Apocalymon's data, the Harmonious Ones then created the Dark Area, a parallel world devoid of color to serve as a prison for the surviving members Apocalymon's armies. To honor the sacrifice of Fanglongmon, the four remaining Harmonious Ones used his residual data to create the Light Area, a digital paradise that came to be watched over by the three Celestial Digimon. And once again, peace reigned across the Digital World.

    But in the Dark Area, the evil Digimon were growing in power and number, and the Harmonious Ones knew it would only be a matter of time before they attempted to attack once again, so they recruited more humans, brought them to the Digital World, and created an organization that would help police the Digital World called the Guardians. They appointed the mighty Susanoomon as the leader of the Guardians, who in turn kept the peace for over a century.

    However, something has begun to stir. A virus has erupted across the Digital World, weakening the barrier between the regular plane of the Digital World and the Dark Area, and the Dark Area is beginning to expand randomly into the regular Digital World, bringing with it many of the evil Digimon imprisoned there. The Guardians have in turn assigned a team of their best Tamers to discover the origins of the "Ragnarok Virus" and find a way to reverse its effects while at the same time, they must prevent the "super-dark" Digimon from crossing over into the regular plane of the Digital World.

    Hey, I posted an RP but it seems nobody wants to join. I asked for criticism on the first post at the top of the post but... well, basically I was asking, could anybody have a quick read through this and tell me what might be wrong with it, what I can do to improve, and what I might not want to include? It's an original RP, so its not based off anything.

    I put a lot of work into it, but if I need to do more then just say, I don't mind it being torn apart just so that I know what I can improve on in order to get a few signups. I understand I might have to compramise my own tastes for the other players, but I hope to do that as little as possible, though I'm guessing that's where I might have gone wrong. Thing is I don't know how to change that.

    Thanks in advance.

    Humans: Have the power of technology, weapons, large numbers. No nukes, though, a few decades behind toady.

    Frigimans: Have supernatural abilities, can control ice, create ice, have some unusual physical capabilities. However much of their technology is stolen from humans, and they have not mastered it.

    They are at war and live near one another, in a wide valley flood plain, surrounded by mountains. Humans fear frigimans and see them as vermin, evil. Frigimans see humans as disrespectful to the land, sea and air and that the Earth would be better off without them. They both do what they can to try and wipe each other out.

    Frigimans appear just as humans, but their race was blessed with power many hundreds of years ago. Rare gems, found in only remote regions in the unexplored continent, grant them unusual abilities, such as manipulating and creating ice attacks, cooling the air to create ice fog, anything creative. They do not ave to have these gems on them, but the closer they are to one, the more powerful they become. Many hunt these gems to grant them power, but even rarer are the ones which work on the fiery humans, granting them power of heat and flames...

    They also have a transformation ability - a rare power only attainable by the strongest members, or triggered in weaker members by extreme fear or trauma. Each appears different, although built like a mammal, their transformation possesses scales, and often appears lizard like, though the appearance is also determined by the personality of the individual. Male's transformation often have tusks in place of canines, while this is rare on females. There transformations posess unimaginable supernatural power, but their energy supply is limmited, especially in weaker characters who may only be able to transform for less than a minute.

    Humans are newcommers, only having been there about a hundred years, and due to the frigimans, have not been able to expland beyond the single city they have built in that small valley on the continent.

    The hate between them is so strong, that often intrusion by one race on another's territory results in instant attacks and killings.

    However, many humans, and many frigimans alike, are tired of the fighting. Some select groups hope for peace, and end to the fighting, and pray for the two races to live in harmony with one another. These groups, of both races, live in faer and hatred by their own kind, labelled traitors by their leaders.

    Will the war end in defeat of one race over another? Or will they eventually be able to set aside their differences and live together as one kind?

    As the ones who hope for peace prepare for their own war, the future looks unclear.

    :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::

    Rules:

    1) Abide by the frorum rules, please.
    2) Two characters maximum per player, but only 1 leader per player.
    3) Be as litterate as you possibly can, chatspeak is forbidden.
    4) Please do not join if you feel you may leave halfway through without warning.
    5) If you do feel like leaving, please post and say so to notify the rest of the players. A reason would be preferred but if it's a private matter then that's ok.
    6) Do not play or act out another player's character without their consent.
    7) Do not kill another player's character without their consent. Any posts which do this will be disregarded. If your character was killed and you did not consent to it, post straight away to say so, so other people know to ignore it.
    8) If one of your characters are killed and you consented to them being killed, you may create another one to replace them.
    9) Be realistic when you post - have faults to balance your strengths, have misfortunes to balance your fortunes, don't be all powerful and godly.
    10) The plot revolves around the characters - you can let things flow in your own way. This goes for beyond the valley, where it's unexplored, but still try to be as realistic as your knowledge and intuition will allow.

    Sign-up form:-

    Name: (your character's name)
    Age: (you character's age)
    Sex: (whether your character is male, female, or other)
    Race: (whether your character is human, frigiman or other)
    Role: (I need a leader of each side [you can choose the title - whether its king, president, or even just leader, or something else], first come first serve for those positions. Otherwise, the role your character plays e.g. a member/leader of a group fighting to end the war, a soldier, a civilian - this is optional)
    Personality: (how your character acts, responds, what kind of person they are)
    History: (some background story on your character)
    Appearance: (a description of what your character looks like. A written description is necessary, if you would like to also add an image thats fine)
    Other: (any other information you feel you would like to add - this is optional)

    The RPG will start when we have 2 leaders for each side and a few other players to get the ball rolling.

    Here's my Digimon RP, Before I post it i want to make sure it sounds like theres a plot in it. If it doesn't seem like there is could some one help me reword it so there is?




    Back Story

    Back when the digital world was new, there was nothing but chaos. The first digimon were unstable and animal like. They destroyed each other for data cores in order to survive and digivolve. Digivolution was different back then. Each data core absorbed would increase the digimon's power and change its physical appearance. There was no limit on how many times one digimon could do this.

    This continued until there was only around a thousand digimon left. Around this time three digimon appeared that where different then the other digimon. These three digimon had human like intelligence. They realized that if things didn't change that the digimon would keep destroying each other till only one remained.

    The three came up with a plan to save the remaining digimon. It took them a long time but they managed to get the remaining digimon in a valley. Once they where all there the three turned there self's into data which fill the entire valley. The digimon stopped fighting with each other and started absorbing the data. One by one the digimon started turning into digieggs, until all the digimon in the valley turned into digieggs. The remaining data spread out and became part of the digital world.

    While in the digieggs the data they absorbed changed each digimon. It made there data stable and increased there intelligence. It also change how digimon digivolve. When the digieggs hatched they where in the lowest digivolution form. As time went by they found that they could increase there own data by having friendly battles or by training, and once they built it up they could digivolve. They also learned that two digimon could combine there data to create a new digiegg. Soon there were to many digimon in the valley, so they started leaving in small groups to explore. They traveled all over the digital world and many stayed to live in places that suited them.

    Now and then fights broke out between the different kids of digimon. Some of the worst where between the Holy and Dark digimon, but these fights never got bad enough that the digimon couldn't handle it. So for the most part the digital world was at peace.

    That is until around 400 digiyears ago. A Darkdramon was trying to find away around the Digivolution cap the the Ancient 3 had added to original surviving digimon's data. It's unknown why he wanted to do this, but after many digiyears of experimenting he created a virus that would allow him to digivolve. He used the virus to digivolve in to Virus Darkdramon, but something went wrong and he went mad. He started infecting other digimon with the virus and randomly destroyed parts of the digital world. Putting aside there differences the other digimon came togther to stop Virus Darkdramon, but it wasn't enough.

    The most powerful digimon from each type meet in the valley to come up with a way to stop Virus Darkdramon. While arguing over the best way to stop him, they heard a soft voice in the heads. It told them that if they worked together they could get help to defeat Virus Darkdramon. Since they couldn't think of any thing else to do, they did as the voice told them and created a portal to the human world.

    The portal brought over 9 kids (3 girls and 6 boys between 13-17) to help save the digital world. They were freaked out at first, but they agreed to help. They became partners with the digimon that created the portal, and received a watch like digivice. After defeating infected digimon they found that the digivice could absorb the virus and purify it, and once they had enough of the virus they learned that human and digimon could digivolve together creating a new more powerful digimon.

    Even though only 4 of the kids could digivolve this way, they managed to defeat Virus Darkdramon, and everyone absorbed some of the virus into there digivice. As he turned into an digiegg the kids heard him say "I'm sorry, I never meant to hurt any one. I was just trying to find away to stop.....". As they're wondering what he meant there digivice's starts flashing and the virus brakes free damaging the digivices. The virus took on a digimon like form and attacked the kids. Unable to digivolve they fight a long and tiring battle. They manage to damage the virus enough causing it to turn into a sphere.

    After doing nothing while the kids talk for around a hour the sphere starts shooting energy blast in all directions. One of the blasts hit the ledge above the sphere where the kids are standing with there digimon. Most of the kids jump out of the way to safety, but Leia, one of the girls fell onto the sphere and got absorbed into the sphere before her partner can save her. The sphere starts flashing wildly and the others barley get out of the castle before the sphere exploded scattering a purified form of the virus every where, and was absorbed by most digimon. As they were fleeing Leia's partner Lilithmon turned into a digiegg.

    When it was safe the kids and there partners returned to find the castle in ruins. While looking for Leia they found a few digieggs in the ruins from digimon that didn't get out in time. Deep inside where the sphere was they found 5 odd chips, but they couldn't find any trace of Leia. Before they left they gathered up the chips, and digieggs. On they way to the valley they let everyone know that it was over. A few days later the kid returned home.
    Over the next 15 digiyears the digimon learned that the purified virus had an unexpected side effects. They found that two digimon could digivolve together and create a new stronger digimon. The other was that digimon gain live spans. After so many digiyears digimon would become digieggs again.

    After the kids returned home they learned as much about computers as they could. It took them a few year but they managed to create a permanent portal between the Digital world and Earth. It's been 5 years since the portal reopened and City is being built in the valley around the portal. On earth the portal is located in the basement of a small privet high school/academy. A hand full of students are told about the digital world and given the chance to become a tamer, the guardians of the digital world. The first 8 kids started the tamers soon after reopening the portal, because of reports of digimon acting oddly. When a new tamer first comes to the digital world they're brought to the garden to find there digimon partner. The garden is were digieggs are taken care of till they hatch. The new tamers walk around the garden till a digivice appears on one of the digieggs. The digivice will glow in the hands of the tamer it's meant for, and the digiegg will hatch.

    The new tamers and there digimon are taken to one of the dorms depending on what type of digimon they got. There taught how to take care of there new digimon and once there digimon digivolves to rookie there allowed to do missions. Missions are normally done in groups of two or three. What missions tamers can do depends on there rank. There are 5 tamer ranks, Brass, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum. New tamers start out as Brass tamers and are given shoulder pins for there uniforms as they go up in ranks.


    Now

    Tonight there is going to be a festival celebrating the completion of City. Many of the top tamers are going to compete in a tournament taking place in the grass training field. It's even rumored that some of the Master Tamers are planing on joining in. There's also going to many game and changes to compete in, like races, and pie eating contests. Digimon are coming for all over, and most tamers have been called back for the festival.

    Your one of the tamers or digimon that's come to City for the festival




    Info.

    Digivolution- In order for tamers digimon to Digivolve Champion they need to be Bronze rank, for Ultimate silver, and for Mega Platinum. Every time a tamer goes up a rank there digivice is upgraded allowing them to digivolve in new ways. Gold tamers unlock the ability to DNA digivolve.

    Digivice- Tamers need there digivices to allow there digimon to digivolve, but it also has other abilities. It has a map/radar that lets them know what's within a 100ft of them and if they have a tamers id they can find them almost anywhere in the digital world .It also has a digidex, phone and clock in it.

    Digimon Life Span- Because of the virus most digimon now have life spans. An In-Trainer's is 8-10 years, a Rookie's is 15-25 years, a Champion's is 30-50 years, an Ultimate's is 60-100 years, and a Mega's is 150+. Digimon with tamers don't follow these rules since they digivolve sooner then wild digimon. It's though that the digimon will become a digiegg's when there tamers die.

    Tamers- The guardians of the digital world. When the surviving 8 kids returned to the digital world they started the Tamers to keep the peace in the digital world. The tamers are divided into 9 teams (One for each type) and each is lead by a Master Tamer. Eight of the tamer teams are lead by the original kids. The Dark tamers are lead by Leia's little brother.

    well, if you have seen the game show (which is in japanese), i'm making it into a role playing game!

    for those of you who do not know what sasuke/ninja warrior is, let me explain it for you. it is basically the world's toughest obstacle course, with 100 contests each competition. It is a real, japanese television show, and is called ninja warrior in english. it is on G4TV in america and TBS (Tokyo Broadcasting System), in japan.

    Here are the rules:

    1. You must describe your character in no more than 2 sentences in these 3 catergories:
    *Age
    *Occupation
    *Atheletic Appearance
    *Atheletic Ability


    2. We are going to go through all 100 contestants, with 10 at a time.

    3. Out of every 10 contestants at a time, 1 will be chosen to go onto the next stage (based on my choice as the most qualifying in detail to pass), which means 10 contestants for the second stage, 5 for the third stage, and 2 for the final stage.

    4. You must think of your own japanese name (nothing innapropriate or fake-sounding, first and last name).

    5. The first 10 people who post their character with every qualification matched, will be in the competition.

    6. The obstacles the characters you chose will be going through are from the real competitions of the show, but not from the recent competiton, just randomly chosen.

    7. HAVE FUN AND CAN YOU BE THE NEXT NINJA WARRIOR?

    Now, On The The Obstacles For The First Stage On This 1st Competiton. There will be 6 obstacles for this competition.

    Cone Jump
    The competitor must cross two large cones that are spinning and jump to the next platform.

    Mountain Climb
    The competitor must climb a wall with hand and foot holds to reach the buzzer at the top. The first section of the wall is on a conveyor belt powered by the weight of the competitor and slides downward as you climb.

    Crooked Wall
    The competitor must run up a concave wall and jump off the side to grab a rope which will then take them to the next obstacle. The wall is curved more on one side than the other.

    Bungee Bridge
    The competitor must cross a bridge of 4 planks with a gap between each. The planks are made of many thin strips of a stretchy material so they provide little support and very unstable ground.

    Log Grip
    The competitor must hold onto a vertical log with their arms and legs while it slides down a track with drops to the next platform. The log contains small indentations to provide a little grip. The track is the same one previously used in the Rolling Log.

    Rope Climb
    The competitor must take a rope and swing to a wall, then climb up the wall with the rope to press the buzzer before time expires.

    The time limit will be 65 seconds and i will be announcing the competition.
    GOOD LUCK CONTESTANTS!!!!!

    Well... I know what you're talking about, I spent like, an hour just staring at the TV while I was in a Japanese Restraunt, but you'd need a plot for that AnimeDDR.

    Like, a real plot. It's a game show, so I don't know how you'd implement a plot that wasn't absolutely corny, but you can't just... have only what you've got. <_<

    The Rules said:
    NO1: No plot, no RPG…follow the directions given above to give a decent plot and sign up sheet. If these demands are not met, then your RPG will be closed.

    ----

    Like any fan fiction, you have to have an idea before you can make the story, and this is exactly what a plot is. A plot is a sort of idea given to the members so as they can build on it. Without a plot you cannot produce an RPG. For example, at the start of a game or some stories, you normally have a Prologue or summery of what the game or book is about, this is a plot.

    Three main things are needed in a plot:

    Originality: Which will draw members to the RPG, the last thing you want to do is a have a plot about a bunch of trainers going on a journey as you would see in the Pokemon Anime, no, you want a good story with a few plot twists. We are not stopping you from starting a Trainer RP, but it would be an idea to add a few plot twists and some adventure, this is what draws members to your RPG.

    Detail: Description, History and emotions all come into the detail of a Plot; with out detail the plot will have no feel and therefore not attract members. Were not saying it has to be a 14 page essay, but make it more than 4 lines and add some description into it to allow members to have the idea of what the plot is about.

    Interest: Originality and Detail all come into the interest of the plot. You want to draw members to the RPG so make it interesting by adding a few plot twists and furthermore, just making up your own story.

    Depth: Unfortunately, we are not accepting Plots that are less then 5 or 6 lines, and that is absolute bare minimum, and only if you managed to fit every little detail into those 5-6 lines. You should have enough so that the roleplayers in your RP are not wandering around trying to find something to do. Some Rper's like long novel-like plots that describe a story that took place before the actual roleplay- That counts as a plot. But other Rper's like plots that are straight to the point, and simply describe what will happen in the plot. Whichever kind of plot you write, all the threads are on moderation and will be previewed by the moderators. [Note: Bijou will send PM's when there's a particularly problematic plot.] But, 5-6 lines of plot does not always mean your plot will be accepted. It depends on whether the plot is of quality, or is simply filled with a bunch of useless speech.

    So that's pretty much what a plot needs, but this is only the beginning.

    So yeah, you'll be needing a plot for that roleplay. :/

    Name- what your tamers called
    Nick Name (optional)- What you call your digimon
    Digimon-(what form it's in most of the time, normally it's Rookie. Pm me if you want it to stay in any other form with a good reason why. I'll probably say no though :))
    Digivolution line
    In-Training- what the digiegg hatches into (I'm not using fresh so go strait to In-Training)
    In-Training attack(s)- (Only 1 special or physical)
    Rookie- what the In-Training digivolves to
    Rookie attack(s)- (1 special, and 1 physical (2 total))
    Champion- what the Rookie digivolves to
    Champion attack(s)- (2 special, and 1 physical or 1 special, and 2 physical(3 total))
    Ultimate- what the Champion digivolves to
    Ultimate attack(s)- (2 special, and 2 physical(4 total))
    Mega- what the Ultimate digivolves to
    Mega attack(s)- (3 special, and 2 physical or 2 special, and 3 physical(5 total))
    Super Mega- Example Imperialdramon, or anything that digivolves from a Mega (Must have my permission)
    Super Mega attack(s)- (3 special, and 2 physical or 2 special, and 3 physical(5 total))
    Alt. S. Mega- what the S. Mega can become (Must have my permission, Example Imperialdramon Paladin mode)
    Alt. S. Mega attack(s)- (3 special, and 3 physical(6 total))
    Hybrid- Humans and digimon digivolving together (Must have my permission)Hybrid attack(s)- (3 special, and 2 physical or 2 special, and 3 physical(5 total))
    Alt. Hybrid- what the Hybrid can become (Must have my permission, Example Gallantmon Crimson mode)
    Alt. Hybrid attack(s)- (3 special, and 3 physical(6 total))
    Appearance- what your tamer looks like (a pic would be nice, not necessary)
    Bio- why they behave they way they do, a little about there past
    Rp example-


    I only have a slight problem with the nomenclature of the levels. In-Training to Mega is fine, but beyond that seems...just...odd. First off, Imperialdramon Fighter Mode is still a mega level, so is Paladin Mode, they've just advanced higher through the ranks of power WITHIN the mega level. There are only a few (5 I think) official digimon of the "Super Ultimate" level, the level beyond mega. The same thing goes for the hybrids. I'm assuming you mean like in Digimon Tamers with Biomerging? That's still just regular mega, just a different way to get there. Same thing goes for Gallantmon Crimson Mode. He's like Imperialdramon Fighter and Paladin Mode, a stronger version at the same level.

    As for plot, you've got something going there, seems like there could be some malicious undertones and antagonists that might appear during the festival? You should expand on that more, without knowing whether or not there will be some larger conflict, people won't be as ready to join up.

    That's just my opinion anyway. It looks good, and if it does get up and going, I'd like to take you up on that option to be one of the 2 more advanced tamers.

    Good luck!

    I know that the Imperialdramon's and the like are mega but I wanted to separate them because of how the digivole and how strong they are.

    I'll change the last part a little and start it.
