    Once again, sorry for the somewhat skimpy plot, but I have assurances from an RP mod that it's enough. >_>

    This roleplay is based on a concept similar to ranma 1/2, an old, if popular anime and manga. If you aren't familiar with the basics, or want to learn more, I highly suggest https://www.animeinfo.org/featured/ranma/index.html

    The story is as follows. A group ofteenagers, all at least friends with one or two people in the group, if not most of them, are on a camping trip in china. However, due to a massive storm occuring right when the van managed to run out of gas, they were forced to sheek shelter elsewhere, as the van was only large enough for crampt travel, not shelter overnight. They found what appeared to be a lodge, and though it was abandoned, it still recieved heat and electricity, and there were several springs around for water. The sign on the lodge read "Jusenkyo."

    This is where the roleplay starts, the next morning, a bright and sunny day. However, there is one catch. It seems that the springs of Jusenkyo are cursed. Each one with it's own tragic legend, whoever should come in contact with the water, will take the form of whatever drowned there every time they come in contact with cold water. Hot water will reverse this effect, but only until next time. Now these individuals must either learn to deal with their curse, and accept it as a blessing, or restort to whatever methods they can to find a cure.

    And here's the usual form.

    Name:

    Personality: (optional)
    History: (optional)
    Curse: (what you will eventually be cursed to when you come in conact with a spring. Things like dog, cat, panda, duck, pig, and so on. There are ones like tiger, ect. But they would be too overpowering for the other characters, so I suggest that you try to use your own best judgement.)

    Name: Mistral Valentines

    Age: 14

    Gender: female

    Appearance: Quite strange in one's eye, with her peculiar choice of clothing, it's no wonder she is mistaken for someone younger. Mistral has gleaming curls the shade of copper cascading down shortly under her neck, stopped abruptly by the piece of clothing (similar to a poncho) perched up on her shoulders. Its fabric is deep beige with azure beads and strings laced around the ends. Underneath is a simple blue dress with the ends lightly laced with silver beads clinging onto short, tanned leather strings. The dress reaches all the way to her brown boots, wider than it is tall, which clumps heavily against her feet. The queerest thing about Mistral are her eyes- shimmering emerald with flecks of silver if one observes carefully, often flickering with mischief. Her slender frame is rarely shown due to the 'poncho,' as well as the wide band circling her waist, holding her small Japanese fan. Two rings of silver dangle from her wrist.

    Personality: Despite her age, Mistral has created her own foundation of trust and stubborn loyalty. No matter what the circumstance, she would most likely be the first to help and defend with everything, almost a bit too eager. That setback causes a confusion between the difference of allies and foes. No one can blame Mistral, though. She acts younger than one would have suspected, with her cheerful and mischievous smile. Her childish demeanor is not to be mistaken, however. No matter how she acts, Mistral is an observant and intelligent person, picking up things first before anyone else. But she doesn't like to show it. Her nature resides in optimism, equality and fairness.

    History: She had been (if not) leading quite a peculiar life, until the trip in China. She had never really known her parents, being she was adopted. Her strange clothing and traditions- no one really knows where they come from. Mistral is a girl full of her own world, so she makes up her own cultures, leading other people stereotyping her. Still, she thought the camping trip would prove beneficial for her...

    Curse: A solemn cat- with pitch black fur, and the same haunted green eyes Mistral has. Around her neck, are those same two dangling silver rings. No larger than most, she is a slim, supple creature, usually agile, swift, and silent.

    *hugz Mistral* ^_~
     
    Name: Rachel
    Age: 13
    Gender: Female
    Appearance: Blue sleeveless shirt, a gold necklace with three heart-shaped rubies, brown hair with blond highlights, and white shorts. Her skin is white though, and she has green-blue eyes. She wears a Hawaiian bracelet on her left wrist, and a ring with 3 more heart-shaped rubies on her right hand.
    Personality: uhhh... kinda depends on her mood
    History: she's an alaskan girl with an obsession for the internet. Nuff said.
    Curse: Komodo Dragon
     
    Name: Robert
    Age: 16
    Gender: Male, most of the time.
    Appearance: He has short, dark brown hair, with hazel eyes that tend to be mroe green than brown. He's tall for his age, and moderately muscular, though he isn't exactly a bodybuilder. In his cursed state, he looks like this, though you wouldn't catch him dead in that outfit. He usually wears white khaki shorts, with a royal blue sleeveless T-shirt.
    Personality: I despise describing personalities, you'll see when you meet him. Teasing him about his curse however, is the best, and fastest way to irritate him.
    History: (optional)
    Curse: Female

    OOC: Due to lots of impatience from a few members. (Not naming names.) I've been pressured into starting this roleplay, though I'm still expecting a late signup, so go ahead and feel free to sign up form this point onwards.

    IC: "Ugh," I mumbled, as I slowly opened my eyes. As I awoke, the memories came back to me of what happened. The storm was so bad that we could't even get up the tents, and the van was too small for all of us to stay. They had practically forced me to go out and look for shelter, and it was lucky that I found this lodge. I sat up, slipping out of the sleeping bag, which I was using for a blanket on a matress in one of the many rooms in this place, and got dressed. I had already checked, there was electricity, with hot and cold running water. And besides that, there were a ton of springs outside, crammed together. It was going to a warm and suny day today, extremely hot, the kind of day that makes people exhausted from the heat y noon, and I smiled. "Good thing there are all those springs out there to swim in."
     
    "About time. Any longer and I'd be throwing things at you." I said, pacing around the hallway and noticing that Robert was active. I had awoken about 2 hours ago, and I had noticed that it was going to be incredibly hot today. "Great, it snows one day, then it's 135 degrees the next. I'm already wishing i had stayed home." I said as I moved outside. Pausing for a moment, I looked back and yelled to Robert "And tomarrow, if you take my fashion style again, you die!" As it occured to me he was wearing a blue sleeveless and white shorts as well. They MAKE sleeveless clothes for men? I wondered, as I moved to the streams. I was in a unexplainable bad mood, I was wishing that i could figure out what was causing it...
     
    "I've worn this type of clothes as long as you have, I used to live in Hawaii after all." I said, not really thinking about it. The heat was already building up, and now would be a good itme to see if this place had air conditioning. "I'm going to see if this place has central heat and air, tell me if you see a thermostat or something similar, all right?" I asked back to Rachel, looking for some sort of switch. Normally, I would have greeted her by clinging to her, but she seemed a bit to irritated for me to try that today...
     
    "Would you people SHUT UP!?" I yelled at them after their conversation woke me up. How was I supposed to get my rest with them blabbing the whole time. I had come down all the way from Canada for this trip, and the car ran out of gas, and we were stuck here. "How am I supposed to get the sleep I lost last night?"
     
    "Geez," Mistral rolled her eyes, cheerful casting them all a look, "you would have expected much more from those two love birds." She hummed nonchalantly, applying awkward movements on a small patch of barren land. One could not exactly perceive what she was doing- it was either she was practicing Tai Chi, or she had lost her mind beneath the sweltering weather.

    You must balance yourself, she thought solemnly, oblivious to her foolishness and randomness.

    "And you, young one," she said with mock humor to David, "must calm yourself and live in blissful harmony~"

    Just that, her feet balanced precariously, tipping and wobbling as Mistral fell.

    Ehehe...so much for balancing.
     
    "First of all, we're the same age. Second of all, I don't believe in that garbage." I said, now ticked by what she said. Serves her right I thought to myself as I saw her fall over. "Anywho, I'm filthy...." I said aloud, now deciding I could live without sleep.
     
    "Then go take a bath." I said, pointing out the window. "I'm all right, I'm just going to enjoy the scenery, and if it get's too hot, I'll just go for a swim." I said, I was already moving outside the door. I wasn't much of a morning person. Heck, I wouldn't even be hungry for breakfast until noon...
     
    I could no longer hear anything that was going on, and I thought I noticed something glittering across the spring that I as moving along it. I immediatly waded in, starting to move across, but I coughed as water got up my nose. That was strange, I thought that the spring wasn't that deep, but I seemed to be able to get across anyway, to find that the glittering item was just a broken geode. Without thinking, I picked it up in my mouth, and turned, realising that everything was a lot taller then I remembered it being...
     
    "Gahh!" I yelled,hearing a strange sound, and turning to see a huge lizard several yards away. And by huge, I meant huge, not big. It must have been like six feet long. I didn't know much about it, but judging from it's short legs, it wouldn't be able toclimb trees. I instantly bolted, crawling up into a young tree, until I moved out onto a branch that I was certain it couldn't reach, safely above a spring. Now I'd just have to wait until it moved away...

    Curse: a small black bat

    I love Ranma 1/2! This is if I can join.
     
    I followed, not understanding what was wrong with him. I paused for a moment, just managing to look up, and deciding to play a prank on him, I jumped, dropping the geode, and clamping onto the branch he been on, trying to break it. I suddenly glanced backward, realising with a shock that I was holding on with my mouth! what on earth was I doing that for? That didn't compare to the shock of when I saw my scaley body, and I let go, dropping back to the ground, stunned for a moment.
     
    OOC: You may join, but if your RPing skills are not up to par, I have the right to ask you to leave.

    I as caught by suprise. I yelled, slipping, but I managed to hold onto the branch, though why I wanted to was beyond me. But when the thing let go, the branch shook a few times under the change in force, and snapped. I noticed this, and yelled loudly as I fell down with a huge splash into the spring...
     
    "Geez, what are you guys doing n-" I said as I walked out the door, stopped when I saw a large lizard, then saw Robert crash into a spring. "What the hell is that!? What the hell is going on!?" I cried as I run up to the spring Robert had fallen into.
