History
Since man began to think and dream, another world has existed, a world of the imagination. At first it was simple but as thoughts grew more complicated, the parallel world expanded. The living beings there were creatures of fantastical origin and appearance. As the earth developed, so did the creatures. The creatures gained the ability to attack and destroy and even thoughts and dreams of their own. For hundreds of years on their world, the creatures remained nameless and etheral and there was no way for the two worlds to interact.
For a long time, this was the way things stood. Then the computer was created. As computers grew more advanced, more trash data and files began to float through the worlds to that parallel one, creating the Digital World. It connected to the Internet itself and with this created the process of evolution. Yet the worlds never truly met and remained in a balance, despite the turmoil on both sides. At least, that was the idea.
Everything is about to change now.
Plot:
Welcome to the Hallbrook Academy, you hormone addled brat, a place well known for its high scores and happy children. It's a relatively friendly campus despite the middle and high school students having to share a campus and there are a fair amount of awards hanging everywhere. Dorms are available but a few tudents do only come during the day. After school tutoring is offered and extracurriculars are encouraged.
And your school has just started a yearlong project. The board is trying to protest animal and child abuse. So each student is given a virtual pet to raise as well as it can, battling and interaction included. (think of the tamagotchi.) The student from each grade with the pet in the best condition is exempt from all trimester finals. Simple right? Hah, the reward's the only thing worth it. The creature is called a Digimon. No one knows where the company got that name from.
But your pet is acting strange. Sometimes it seems to be talking to you and others it beeps for no reason. Sometimes the little creature is glaring at you or smiling or actually can hear you talk. And this morning, it would not stop vibrating before class started.
And for good reason you realize when the power goes out. The air is very cold and everything falls quiet except for occassional girly shrieks. Then it's silent... as a monster lunges through the class window.
Panic ensues and children are attacked. Even the teacher isn't spared as more monsters crawl through. It's about to be the end when a kid your age stands up and blasts your enemy through the wall. Who is this kid? He's not in your class.
That's when your virtual pet starts to glow. Words appear above the screen: "Are you ready to synchronize?" All of the pets say that. You are one of the ones who clicked yes.
The reply is simple: "Welcome to the Digital Game."
Your life will never be the same again.
Digivice:
If it's possible I will upload a picture of my own. But until then, we'll have to make do with a description.
The Digivice is known simply as D-Syn, the Digital Synchronizer. It is about the size of an Ipod classic, except slightly thicker in the back. The screen takes up half of the front. Below the screen is a single circle pad and four buttons around it. There are two separate colors, one for the majority of the device and the other for the buttons. On the back is an odd panel with code running across it, used to judge the Synchro Rate. The buttons can show the stats of both ally and opponent Digimon, the library of Digimon faced, clock/your state, of health and how to feed and clean up after your Digimon. It was a virtual pet. They prefer human food though. Tapping the center of the circle pad returns them to the Digivice.
Digimon/Evolution
The evolution line is the same as in the media. It goes from (Japanese terminology used here but English will be provided on this post alone: Baby 1/Baby->Baby 2/ In-Training->Child/Rookie->Adult/Champion->Perfect/Ultimate->Ultimate/Mega. There is no Burst Mode in this, ergo, no Super Ultimate. There is also no Jogress, Spirit, or Armor Evolution. There is also not DigiXros. I'm sorry, too much of a Fusion Dance. Armor is simply Adult level in this. Evolving from Child to Perfect is considered Super Evolution and evolving from Child to Ultimate is Warp Evolution. Adult is basic evolution.
In posts, new Digimon (shown in the RP anyway) need their data shown. It's proof of it being scanned. Please use Wikimon or ask me. I'll be happy to do it.
Major NPCs
I'll let you know which ones can be controlled and when. All numbered characters have no names, don't use them, or don't remember them and were each part of something called Digital Lost. Exposition will be in Episode 2.
X- This is a red-headed sixteen year old with the tips of his hair dyed silver like his eyes. He's a cheerful, goggle-wearing, easygoing dude who belongs on the track team, that's his build. When it comes to fighting "Virans" as he calls enemy Digimon, he's sadistic and smiling, seeing them as beneath him and worthy of being stepped on. He has a soft spot for Day and VI. His partner is Ryudamon. Can be used during certain missions.
VI- A young girl with black hair and odd red eyes. She is a grade-schooler and excels at hacking and using the computer in general. She mostly mumbles and keeps to herself. She doesn't like to fight and stays on support, even though she can. Her partner is Renamon. Cannot be controlled except during breather, peaceful times. They'll happen at times.
XXX- A girl with blond hair and green eyes who rarely interacts with anyone other than the numbers. Day and VI frequently have to convince her to leave her room. She has a hatred for X and will not hesitate to try and kill him. She is a bitter, quiet, unstable girl who is rarely sent out on missions. Her partner is Lopmon. Cannot be controlled.
Nikolai- A member who joined the force only a few months ago. He's a bit clumsy but a hard worker and a quickly rising member of the group. His hair is brown and spiky and he almost always has a good word for everyone. His partner is an Agumon. Can be controlled often.
Alex- A female (who calls herself male) with a love of sorbet. Yeah ignore that. She wears a male school uniform. She's a fierce fighter and her lavender hair almost never gets into her blue eyes. She's been in this organizaion for two years and her determination has not faded. Her partner is Lucemon. Can be controlled often.
Commander Brandon Wilson- That's Commander Wilson sir to you kid. Don't mess with this guy. He may not have a Digimon but he can fight one barehanded. He does better with a weapon though. He is the boss, the big cheese, the guy people run from really fast. Slightly strict, a cool customer, and difficult to persuade, he gets into more arguments with X than Nikolai drops the tea tray. That says it all. Controlled very rarely.
The villain? Why would I give that away? You have to survive your school first!

Rules
- All PC rules apply. Pretty much sums up most of this.
- Sign-Ups and questions go here. Please remember this. OOC in posts is kept separated.
- Godmodding will get you kicked out by the second time. No exceptions. Bunnying is only allowed with permission.
- Posts will not be limited by day but, as I've learned, we can't post rapidly and leave others in a panic on what to do and have a lot to read.
- However, in relation to the rule above warn me when you will be offline for a week or longer.
- Digimon is focused more on friendship than romance. There can be romance but don't take it past the dating scenario. Just because this is M rated doesn't mean smut. End of story.
- Violence is acceptable (Duh!) but keep it to the rating.
- For Digimon partners, people will not have the same partners. Otherwise it's fair game. All Digimon are born in the virtual pets so no history is required.
- Be considerate. There will be people with no knowledge of Digimon in this RP. Help them out when you can.
- This RP will be episodic for a certain point. Then we will start the overarching plot. In other words, for all you TV Tropes readers, Monster of the Week -> Arc.
- Evolution will not be sudden, as in one episode you're a Child level, next day you've already reached Ultimate. That also counts as godmodding. I expect a high quality post when a Digimon evolves for the first time. Afterwards, it's not nearly so flashy. Believe me.
- I don't take a vote. Word is final. You complain about it, please PM me. Don't complain where everyone can see you please.
- Reserves have up to a week from inital posting to get their sign ups in. When sign-ups are closed, it will be stated in this post.
- Have fun!
