RPG
Introduction
In this world, this dimension that is, humanity is truly alone, no aliens, no super-powered mutants, nothing else challenged Humanity's dominance of Earth
However if Humans were able to look beyond Reality, they would find a deep residing dimension on Earth itself. Humans had always felt alone, seeking warmth from yet another soul in this world, another partner. However in actual truth humans were made to function as individuals, from the very start, Human souls were split into half, one entering Reality, the other entering the 11th dimension. This dimension is also refered to as The Otherworld. The soul within Reality joins a human child's body. While the other half forms into an embodiment and reflection of its other half's personality and true form. The creatures formed by these other halves are known as Denizens.
Throughout humanity's existance, the Denizens had always watched their Human counterparts silently. That is, until 2011.
E2011, the exact date is unknown as all data was destroyed by the First Breach. The Order of Grey, High council of the Otherworld had decided that no more will Denizens have to live in secret. It was time to emerge and conquer their weaker counterparts. Humans rallied under one banner, seeking to stamp out these mysterious creatures, to push them back to the Portal. However, modern machinery was never a match for a soul's true form.
All hope was not lost. In the early days of the Descision, some Denizens raised questions, saying that there had to be other ways. However, the answer came simply, "There is no other way." These Denizens created a ruckus, using their abilities to wreck havoc in the Otherworld. Many were put down. The others escaped to Reality. Emerging at various remote areas, they warned their human counterparts of the impeding doom. However, the human council, known as the UN, rejected the idea as a poor sense of humor. And thus, the war began, on 2011, the first Denizens emerged from the Portal, killing all humans in sight.
Notes on this rp:
1. The plot will begin before Denizens loyal to the Order of Grey emerged.
2. You should have at least two characters as you require a human and his/her Denizen counterpart to Fuse.
3. Your Denizens have to remain unseen to anyone but their own human counterparts until the start of the Emergance.
4. Denizens have various specialities that humans lack. Denizens do not have supernatural powers but they do have keener eyesight, better strength better hearing. The Denizens all have a single weaponry [may come in pairs] which are mostly plasma, steam-powered or plain mecha-type of weaponry.
For example, my Denizen, STRength has two Mecha-fists. they are so big that she cannot even hand her arms by her side as the fists would prop them up. However, she may shrink her arms into two smaller sizes. One is double the size of a boxing glove while the other is just a mechanized arm the same size of a normal human's.
5. For a human and a Denizen counterpart to fuse, they must both have the same goal. The most simplest of goals is simply to fuse. Physical contact is a must for Fusion to occur.
6. English is the main language in the 11th dimension. Your Denizen will automatically have the knowledge within their Human counterpart's mind transferred to them in a matter of time. This time range can span from 24 hours to one week. Thus, there is no such facilities as schools, homes in the 11th dimension.
7. Denizens and anything which enters the 11th dimension will not require to consume food. Thus, there are no such facilities as restraunts in the 11th dimension.
8. All Denizens clothing should aid well in combat, as fights happen from time to time and death is always a certain possibility.
EDIT:
Terminology:
Personality-Shift (Shift): When a human experiences a mental, perception or personality change, the Denizen counterpart will experience a physical change in apparel, weaponry or accessories.
Portals: To create a portal, a body of water is needed. the black Oranex Crystals will absorb the water leaving no trace of water, regardless of amount of liquid reacted. Three glyphs represent three different choices of the creation of the other end of the portal:
1. Appear at the exact coordinates of the location of where the portal is in The Otherworld, in Reality.
2. Appear within 10 meters of the Denizen's counterpart's resting spot (bed)
3. Appear at the highest Denizen concentration spot in Reality.

OOC Notes
Silvia shoved her stationary into her bag and heaved the entire bag over her shoulders, the small box of minute chess pieces shaking slightly within her sling bag. She sighed, school was getting more and more tiring these days and on top of the stress, there was strange feeling that she was being watched, but when she looked over her shoulders, nothing. Absolutely nothing.
She shuffled her feet, the chess club was closed today so she was free to go wherever she wanted to go. She tapped her card on the partition. With a beep, the machine read her ID and the plastic barriers before her swung open mechanically. Silvia looked around at the station, it seemed particularly empty today. She plopped herself onto one of the marble seats and took a quick sip of water.
******
Strength grunted slightly, the leap had winded her, but it wasn't enough to take her out completely. She had to reach the High Council if she did not want to miss the Order's plans during third Chrome cycle. The door would close exactly on time, there was no way she could enter then and even if she made it in, she would redoubtably tick off some of the senior Denizens.
There was a small elevation ahead, she swung her arms quickly, gaining momentum. Then her arms seemed to glow slightly, before morphing into mechanical arms, which swung up before her, lifting her body off the ground and allowing her to land easily on the top of the small rock formation. Her boots pounded the monochrome flooring which covered the city. She swept past a couple of people, without much of an apology, vaulted cleanly over a small crowd. She landed before a twisting structure, second highest in the whole city of Corex, the High Council.

Dale, after a long day of arguing with the School Board and Principal to extend lunch periods by 10 minutes like so many desperately wanted, heads off from the School District building and decides to take the subway home. As he looks around the station, he spots Silvia, the head student of the Chess Club, and Dale's long-time crush. "Hey Silvia." Dale greets her, and sits next to her on the marble. "What are you doing here, shouldn't you be at the Chess Club?" he says, trying to make some conversation.
***********
Miles snickers as he watches Strength work so hard, trying to make it in time. "you know Strength, wouldn't it have been a lot easier to just walk instead of hop around like a frog?" He says, a smirk crossing his face as he watches her fly and flip her way to the tower, where he already was.

OOC Notes
Silvia laughed, "Hey," She paused slightly, considering the reason why, "no, the club was closed for the day, too many people said they could not make it so... yeah, it was canceled." She ruffled her hair slightly, Dale had a strange way of noticing the schedules of people around him. She glanced up as a train departed, synthesized voices calling out to passengers from all directions.
The train was still five minutes away, according to an in-phone application, which also stated calmly that a light drizzle would be upon the station in a matter of minutes. Sure enough, the wind grew stronger, gusts of confused wind tousled her brown hair. She glanced down at the lighted screen of her flip phone for a second before closing it. She looked at Dale, "Accurate isn't it? Modern technology has become so advanced that we can actually expect what weather we will be getting. Technology advances, and humans become more complacent, living very... burdened lives. There must be something, somewhere... out there." She paused, then she realized something else, "Somewhere... out there?" She laughed, "pun unintended, I swear!"
******
Strength glanced up, her pupils concentric circles just like any other Denizen, at Miles. She ignored his mocking grin and dusted her coat, before entering the auditorium. Hushed voices echoed softly within, footsteps were clearly heard within the stone structure. At one side was rows upon rows of stone benches, carved out from the very stone the Denizens now walked on. Strength walked down the side aisle, her boots crunching on the loose black gravel beneath. She sat at the side, propped her head in her hands, waiting for it all to begin. Majority were clothed in black, while the higher ranking Denizens wore white.
An official clapped his hands, "Denizens of the Otherworld! The meet will be beginning shortly, so do take your seats."

Dale laughs lightly at the unintended pun. "I'm gonna take your word for it." he leans back on the seat, his blonde hair rustling in the wind as the storm begins. "It's been absolute Hell recently, with the Presidency and stuff. But, the School Board is starting to give ground on having more time for lunch every school day." He smiles at Silvia, wishing she knew how he felt. "So, you can't say I didn't do anything during my term!" He laughs again, a smile on his face.
*****
"Boy, I can't wait to hear what they say this time..." Miles mumbles as he takes his seat next to Strength. "Hopefully its not another one of those 'Let's go do blow money on a project' plans again.."

Silvia laughed and a female voice echeod through the station, "The Northband train will be arriving soon,"
Silvia stood, closin her eyes and tapping her head, trying to remember something, "Hey Dale, wanna go jogging later in the evening? We can meet at the park at... Six? Yeah, Mom says I don't exercise a lot, so, I decided to start jogging frequently." She laughed, how funny it must be to be told one was not exercising frequently. She walked towards the sliding doors which would allow her to enter the moment the train had reached. She turned around, clasping her hands behind her back, before puting a hand to keep her hair down.
The doors opened and she stepped inside the carriage and wrapped her hand into a strap. She waited for Dale to enter the train. Their homes were close to the same station after all. She looked at him and awaited for his decision.
******
Strength scowled beneath her hood, Miles was like a pest, he occasionally teased her on various occations and she responded in varying forms of actions, from smashing a table to walking off abruptly. She turned to look at the stone wall beside her. Twelve men stepped onto the stone platform before the audience, backed by the black spires of the city below. They bowed in unison, before retreating to their seats behind them.
The meet started slowly, Finances, Order, new policies, and then finally, Reality Relations. The center most man, who was the only among the twelve to be in a black garb.
Puppeteer, the Head of Reality Relations. Strength remembered his cunning and how he always managed to keep a cloak of mysteriousness around himself. He rose from his seat, striding back and forth, and raised a pale arm skywards,clawing towards a lighted sky above, even though there was no sun to speak of "Denizens! For years now, we have been living in hiding from humanity, from our other halves, from our inheritance." Murmurs of varying opinions echoed within the auditorium.
"We all know that there is only one natural portal that connects this dimension with the fifth dimension, Reality. That very Portal lies within Scorch-hail and is nearly impossible to have large masses passing through this Portal." He raised a finger, "But we have provided some limited supplies of Oranex crystals which will allow one to create a temporal Portal. This portals only permit one entry and stay open until that person has re-entered the portal."
"However, this crystals are extremely hard to manufacture. We have permitted one to every Denizen every cycle."
At this, Strength felt a pulse within her mind, it hurt, but subsided. When the Head official forced Puppeteer to adjourn his speech, she rose silently and left the auditorium. Within her hand was a black crystal shard.

"Um, uh. sure, I don't see why not..." he stammers out, a slight blush on his face. He than enters the car, and takes a strap next to Silvia.
********
"Oh my God..." Miles says as he listens to the idea of invading the 5th Dimension. Only a few minutes after Strength, He silently gets up and leaves, a crystal in hand. "Strength, wait up!" he runs up to her. "I know you don't like me, but you're gonna have to live with me. The others are planning to invade and destroy our counterparts in the 5th Dimension, we have to warn them!" he looks at her, pleading in both voice and body.

Silvia nodded, "Well, since we're meeting at six, we still have a good two hours, two and a half if we discount travelling on foot. And the prediction for tonight's weather is-" She flipped her phone open, reports flashing on the screen as she tapped the screen repeatedly, the steel keychain of a fist jumping up and down, suspended on a thin cord. "Cold or cool... opinions may differ." She closed the phone and tucked it in her pocket. She looked at Dale, was his face red or something? She waved a hand in front of him, "Hey, you okay?-" Then another thought struck her, could it be just the cold?
She looked around the empty carriage as the same synthesized female voice crooned, "Northband station. Passangers alighting, please mind the gap." Silvia beckoned to Dale, pulling him along to the exit.
"You look like you could have a meal before you come for jogging." She grinned, drawing her card out in preparation to tap it on the barrier, "After all, I will try my best to provide sufficient rest should you... Hahahaha, feel too exhausted," She laughed.
******
"I can't say I'm very much bothered about that. However, I do intend to create a portal and enter the fifth dimension. I do very much intend to arrive alone. You actually seem to care about someone, whom you have hardly known and can very much live without. Do not attempt to follow me, or I shall crush you like a pebble." Strength snarled, her lips curling slightly before she spun around and left. She walked a few steps then halted, "Since you care so much, why not go and tell that to Puppeteer? The meeting will resume soon."
Strength sprinted full out, swinging her arms to gain momentum, before entering a empty and deserted building. Water droplets splattered on the black tiles. The smell of metal was heavy in the air. Denizens hardly required to sleep, save for rest and this, within the ruins of Incorpreal, was Strength's main place for relaxation and rest. She inhaled the cold air again before running up a flight of steps and pressing herself through a narrow gap at the top. She let out her breath, what a pain it was.

Riley
The wind was starting to pick up as she was heading 'home' from her college classes. Her dorm was still a while away yet and she hoped it wouldn't start raining. Shrugging her canvas satchel higher upon her shoulder she sighs. It'd been a long day. Even though she only had a couple classes, time just seemed to drag. Stress was nipping at her heels, what with keeping up on her grades and making sure she not only had enough money saved up for the next semester, but for living expenses also. True, she did have financial aid, but that only covered a small portion. Damn, it was difficult being a college kid.
She took out a tiny, golden pocketwatch she kept safely tucked in her pants pocket and glanced at the time. She wasn't expected at work for a few hours and she only had a couple little school projects that were due, why not relax a while? Smiling at the idea, she hurried her pace. She'd go home, clean up a bit, maybe eat something, then take some pictures in the park. It'd be nice, it was at most a ten minute bike ride to the park and she needed to stretch her legs. Hopefully the weather would clear up by then.

Tobias
The room was crowded, that was certain. Denizens from all over had gathered to hear the officials talk. Rumour had it that a revolution was nearing. Thus, it was curiosity that pulled him into the auditorium. The meeting had begun as any other, much to Tobias' disapproval, with the same old banter of finances, policies, yada, yada.. He was tempted to exit, then Puppeteer stood. He sat in stunned silence as the man announced the invasion. So it was true. A sudden pain pierced his head, but it passed just as quickly as it came. In his hand he discovered a crystal shard. The depth of its blackness captivated him. Seeing that Puppeteer had been ushered back to his seat he took the time to exit the room, wanting to study the crystal, wondering if it was indeed the the key to crossing over into Reality.

"Oh no, I'm fine." Dale smiles at her with his usual warm composition, a trait that gave him a huge advantage in the presidency. "But I am kinda tired, the School Board hasn't been too keen on the idea of extending lunch periods. I've been trying my best, but they really aren't budging very much..." He sighs, looking up at the weather.
******
"Why did I even waste my breath?" Miles grits his teeth as Strength heads off. "I'm going there, I'm going to warn my counterpart about what's going to happen. They need to know, and I feel responsible." He says. As much of a cold blooded killer and a soldier he is, he always had a soft spot for Humanity. "We should be their guides, not their conquerors." he says, a famous line he made up a while ago.

Silvia nods and waved, "See you later at the park! If you're late I'm gonna-" She punched her fist into her palm to emphasize her point. After a pause, she carried on, "Just kidding, don't worry too much about the extension of lunch period, most of us handle it perfectly well. Well, see you later!" She patted Dale on the shoulder and jogged off, moving at a moderate pace. The air was growing colder as compared to when they were still in the station.

Strength punched a mechanical fist onto the black tiles below a steady dripping of water. The force of the attack excavated a crater half a meter wide. She paused, her arm returning to normal and she peeled off her gloves, shivering slightly as the cool air kissed her skin. Her hood shook as a gale rocked the Incorpreal, she hastily placed a hand on it to prevent it from falling off. When the winds subsided, the crater had collected a decent amount of water. Strength dropped the black Crystal in, turning the clear liquid into darkness. A glowing circle formed itself perpendicular to the pool of water. Three glyphs glowed red on the blue circle. The meaning of the glyphs were clear. Selection of location, one was to open the Portal at the Human's counterpart's resting place, the next was to open the portal at the exact same coordinates on fifth dimension. And the last was to the most populated area of Denizens in the fifth dimension. She tapped the first glyph with her finger and watched as a vortex of clothes, equipment and books filled her view. She smiled and entered the portal.
Silence. Then, just as Strength was about to move, there were footsteps in the corridor and yawning, then a slam as a door closed. Strength blinked, this was going to be harder than she thought. She climbed out of a pile of clothes, before stacking some of the clothing to obsure the portal.
******
Silvia peeled off her socks and locked the door behind her, mom and dad were out so she had the house to herself until around eight. She dropped her school bag onto her bed, placing her phone on the bed. The girl then created an alarm at 17 45, she tended to forget things sometimes, so she added, "Jogging session with Dale".
When Silvia finally decided to move, she scooped her clothes up and ran into the shower, locking the door behind her. She glanced down at the clothes she held within her hands, a white tee-shirt, white hoodie and white shorts. She snorted in disgust at her choice of clothes. She would just have to collect her track pants from the store room next to her's later. She stepped out of the pool of her clothes and stepped into the full blast of water, which she had so conveniently forgot to heat up. After the incident, she stepped out of the shower and wore the clothes, dropping the uniforms into the laundry basket.
Upon entering the dim room, she could see that her phone had been shifted slightly, she blinked. I must be thinking too much, she chided herself, picking up the phone and entering the store room. The store room was dark, small and cluttered with the family's possessions, Silvia picked her way through the maze of clothes and equipment digging to find-
A pair of hands seized her from behind, wrapping themselves around her neck, suffocating her. The first think she noticed other than the fact that she was likely in big trouble, was that the arms had certain mechanical properties even though it was still covered in skin. Then, her vision turned to black.

The bells of the High Council rang, the loudness displacing the air, creating ripples in the sky. It was time for the meet to resume.

"Alright, see ya than." Dale says before heading home. "Jeez, look at the time..." he says, looking at the clock. "I only got 2 hours." he takes a shower, than eats a quick meal to settle his stomach. "I'll just wear my jogging pants and a school T-shirt, nothing special." he says to himself as he gets dressed, than heads out for the park.
*******
Miles, angry at Strength's reaction to this whole thing, decides to follow her. "Strength doesn't get the fact that when we're two parts of a whole, I meant that literally." He says as he follows the scent of Strength's mechanical arms through the winding maze of buildings and scenery. At last he comes into her personal area, and finds the portal. "She's already through? Let's hope I'm not too late..." he says, making a portal of his own. He exits in the 5th Dimension, and sees Strength choking her human counterpart. "Bitch, you don't know what your doing!" He snarls, taking out his Plasma Repeater and firing a quick burst, burning Strength's metal hand and the skin inside, making her release the Human. He than charges her, knocking the girl to the ground. He than puts one foot on her chest, and aims the repeater at Strength's head. "You don't understand do you? I read the history on Humanity, and I was right when i said we and our human counterparts are two parts of one whole. If the Human dies Strength, so do you!" He looks at her, hatred in his eyes, but also compassion. "I don't want to loose any of our kind to this error in reading. If Puppeteer goes through with this plan to eliminate Humanity, he will in turn commit Genocide on our entire Race!"
*****
Dale makes it to the park, and waits there for 10 minutes after what Silvia said to meet. "Hmm, I wonder what's taking her so long?" He thinks, not aware of the peril his crush is in right now.

"Relax, boy, I am not trying to kill her. Furthermore, we will not die, unless of a natural death." Strength clenched and unclenched her fist, the acrid smell of melting metal reducing as the armor regenerated. She glared at Miles, she should have closed the portal, and she was doing it now! Strength grabbed at the plasma repeater, nearly crushing Mile's fingers, turning the weapon away and throwing a punch. As the boy stumbled back, she leapt over her counterpart's body, smashing her fist into Miles, before shoving him back through the portal. She followed through the motion, reaching the portall just as Mile's body exited the fifth dimension, she tapped the sole glyphs on the portals, sealing herself inside the fifth and Miles on the other side of the portal. A red crystal shard dropped, it was her ticket back out but not just yet, she had to find out about her counterpart's life. She smiled now, that the pest had been dealt with, she picked up the body of the girl and entered the room beside.
******
Silvia awoke, her vision was blur, her arms were tied behind her back and she was lying on her back. She turned her head, nothing, then her alarm went off, illuminating the dim room. Before her sat a figure, hooded in black, with white flames decorating it. She gaped for a moment before sitting upright and demanding, "Who are you? What do you want?!"
The figure said nothing, scooping up ther phone and looking intensely at the screen. If she was to judge, the girl had the same facial complexions as herself, but her hair was white. Silvia shifted in her bed, her hands uncovering a pocket knife, she flicked the blade into the air, intending on cutting herself free when she repeated again, "Who are you?"
The figure looked up, locking their idendical eyes together for the first time. "I am Strength, your Denizen counterpart. Who is Dale, and where is this... park?" When Silvia scowled and said nothing, Strength continued, "Okay, fine then, what were you looking for in the room?"
"Pants."
"Pants? You mean like these?" Strength pulled from a mound of clothing a pair of black track pants.
"Hey, my pants!- Wait, what?" Silvia stuttered as Strength stalked to the store room. Now is my chance. She ran the blade through the rope repeatedly, cutting through strands of nylon rope. When she was free she smiled, the intruder will never know what hit her. She picked up a baseball bat and entered the corridor. Glancing beneath the doorway, the intruder was approaching the door. Silvia kicked the door open, swinging the bat down to cleave the intruder's skull open to the stale air.
The wood splintered and shattered against a metallic object. Strength was now wearing her track pants, "This feels warmer. But, you-" She pointed at Silvia, her arm morphing into a regular arm again, "Have to stay here, I have no time to explain, but tell me where is the park." When Silvia attempted to object she removed her hood, her pale face caught in the florescent lights.
The intruder was definitely not one to mess with so Silvia complied, "It is just across the road." She tried to keep her voice steady. What now? Was she going to be murdered byhis psychopath? Then reality slapped her in the face, the intruder was not human!
Strength pushed past her counterpart, "Keep this, break it, you will die." She pressed a red crystal, it was her ticket back and if it was broken, she would have to wait for someone to get her. Since her voice held no humor, her counterpart nodded vigorously. Hopefully she would stay in as Strength screwed up her social life.
Strength nodded, slid open a window and jumped down, landing in the bushes below, before breaking twigs and sprinting full out to the park. She spotted a boy standing beneath a tree, she ran up behind him, hardly panting, "Dale? Sorry I'm late, things got a bit... tangled at home."
(Yes, STR is going to try to... 'rectify' Silvia and Dale's relationship the moment she sees his face. Not with violence but with harsh words)

"Eh, no problem Silvia." Dale smiles warmly, having absolutely no idea as to what was going on. "So, which way do you want to run?" He asks, handing the reins over to her. "Are you okay? you seem... different somehow." He says, having one of those bad feelings.
*****
"Damn it, the stupid bitch..." Miles grunts as he winds back up in the World. "Wait a minute, my crystal!" He says, activating his next to where hers was. "Hopefully I can stop Strength from doing something completely stupid..." he jumps into the portal, seeing Silvia. "Your Strength's counterpart, Silvia is it?" He asks, walking up to her. "I'm Miles, I'm Dale's counterpart." He introduces himself, looking over the Human Female. "Well, no wonder why Dale is absolutely head-over-heels in love with you." he chuckles, before setting the Plasma repeater on his back. "I hope Strength isn't going to do anything stupid to my counterpart..." He says, looking out the window.
*****
"Ah crap, here comes trouble..." Dale says as 5 guys walk up. "Hey look gang, it's Mr. President." The lead guy says, the schools' Varsity Football QB. "Piss off Joe, I did nothing to aggravate you." he says, standing defensively between them and Strength. "Oh yes you did, your little ratting spree is ending, tonight." Joe smirks, before throwing a fast punch towards Dale's face. In a flash, his hand came between, and stopped Joe's fist cold. "I don't suppose you knew I'm a black belt in 3 martial arts." Dale says with eyes narrowed, before wrapping his arm around Joe's punching arm, and throws him into a bush. "Argh, little bitch!" Joe spits, climbing out of the foliage. "Get him boys!" He barks, as the rest of the football team rushes towards him. He punches the lead man in the stomach, dropping him, and uses the leverage to throw him into the next guy, causing a pileup. He than elbows a guy coming from the side, and kicks him into another bush. After disposing of all his goons, Joe smirks, before revealing a butterfly knife. "I'm gonna cut you up into a million pieces dipshit." he snarls, before rushing at him with the knife. Dale sidesteps, than kicks Joe's legs out form underneath him. "Here's some news for you Joe, I got three things you don't." Dale says, cracking his knuckles. "oh yeah, and what might they be?!" Joe asks, spitting out some gravel, before feeling the barrel of a 9mm pistol sitting on the back of his skull. "A gun license, A concealed firearms license, and an M9 pistol." He says, clicking the weapon safety to off. "Now listen Joe, and listen well. This is your one and only warning: your or your boys mess with me, Silvia, or my friends again, and I will personally put a bullet through your brain." He points the weapon in the air, and fires off a live round. As the crack of the pistol goes off, Joe's eyes widen in terror and the ground underneath him becomes wet. "Now, Get." Dale says coldly, before the football team runs off like a scared chicken.
"Sorry you had to see that." Dale says turning to Silvia, before putting the safety back on and putting the pistol back in a waist holster. "I have that from when I lived on the South Side of Chicago during my childhood, that was kinda something you needed alot back there." he rubs the back of his neck, embarassed that Silvia saw him like that.

Riley
Things were going smoothly so far, she had showered and eaten a glorious meal of ramen noodles and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Checking the window one last time and seeing it still wasn't raining she cheered. The park was still open for her. Grabbing her satchel she places a digital camera within it and heads outside, sure to lock the dorm room behind her. With so many people around, it amazing if you could get some time to yourself.
She exited the campus on bike and raced towards the park, pushing herself to see just how quickly she could make it there.

The black shard felt heavy, more so than it should. He could see power buzzing within, tiny tendrils of light traced the edges of the crystal, as if testing it's strength, seeing if it could break free. Too engrossed in the shard, he disreguards the meeting and continues away from the auditorium. He walks, feeling every sliver, every edge the shard had and wonders why he had been given this. Did he really want to be a part of this revolution? True, it was something he often kicked around in converstaion, but who didn't? Sure it would be grand to see the look on the Human's faces, to watch as their world shatters before their very eyes...but to actaually invade? Though, he was all for survival and wouldn't hesitate to kill in defense, the thought of destroying the humans, though arrogant and corrupt as they are, brought a bad taste to his mouth.
How would he use they shard anyway? It sure as hell didnt come with a manual. Maybe he should've stayed at the meet.. His thoughts were disrupted however when a bright light caught his attention. Curious, though cautious, he increases speed towards it. Surely it was a portal. It had to be, what with all the energy and light it gave off? He arrived shortly and stopped before it. It was a beautiful thing, he did admit. It had to be made by someone with a shard. He stooped before it, unwilling to go through. Who knows where it would send him. He studied it disreguarding portals weren't only a way into a world, they were also a way out, and was unpleasantly shocked to discover a body hurtling out directly ontop of him.

OOC Notes
Strength halted, as the boy turned to face her. Her thoughts and plans were shattered when the Miles look-alike faced her. While she was attempting to gather her thoughts, five boys walked up towards them. Before she had so much of a chance to see more than their body movements, The boy named Dale stepped before her. A fight ensued, Dale seemingly being able to take on five boys the same age as him in a fist fight. She blinked quizzically, were all humans like that? They have nothing but their bodies as weapons? Then her thoughts changed when Dale pulled out a metallic device. Judging by the others reactions, it was a device capable of creating pain, hurt and possibly death. In simpler terms, a weapon. She tapped her arm with a finger, she was metallic beneath the skin of her limbs, her bones were high-density alloys, would it be able to stop the projectile from the weapon? Most certainly.
She froze, if this was a weapon, what the hell was a young man doing with a damn weapon? No wonder Puppeteer had always implied Reality was screwed up, she didn't know he meant it literally. She pulled down her hood, allowing her white hair to catch the light. She tapped on his shoulder, "Uh... Are you even of legal age to be in possession of weapons?"
******
Silvia jumped as air rushed into the room. She looked back, Dale was climbing through a hole in the room! She stepped back, I am going mad, I have seen myself without aid of a mirror and then, she saw Dale climbing through a previously non-existant hole in a wall. She held out the broken end of the baseball bat keeping it pointed towards Dale, "Okay, what the hell is a Denizen? What do you mean by Counterpart?!" She spotted a weapon, seemingly from a game and entering reality. She did not like the strange glow which enimated from the weapon. She kept her make-shift weapon pointed at Dale's chest, skeptical of everything. Something told her that this boy before was definitely not Dale.
******
Strength felt a slight wriggling within her left eye, she cupped a hand over it. 'Personality-Shift?! Not now!!' Strength had forgotten, her abilities had been changing like mad for the past few days, the very symtoms were known as "Personality-Shift", it occured when one's Human counterpart as adding a new value. Considering the location of this Shift, Silvia was going to be more skeptical and observant. Strength cried out in pain as her left eye socket began to spurt blood. She crouched, covering her eye with a hand, she panted, her thoughts whirling at breakneck speed. Then when the pain subsided suddenly, she felt that now, her left eye was replaced, with a cybernetic scope. I don't want it! Strength stood shakily, and she felt the metallic feel of the eye receeding, returning to normal.
******
Puppeteer rose as the doors closed, "Denizens of the Otherworld, our inheritence awaits, our place rests perfectly at the top of the Human's civilisatio-"
"Objection!" A Denizen rose, cutting Puppeteer off.
"Yes?" The official clasped his hands behind his back.
"I think this is wrong. We should not be doing this."
"I'm sorry, but why do you think so?"
"We would die should our counterparts die."
Silence. "Your ignorance betrays you," Puppeteer allowed his hands to swing to his sides. "Only those who have Fused will die when their humans do. None of us here have Fused, so... It will be perfectly fine... Unless we have those who have any of the Fused present?" Puppeteer paused, waiting for an appropriate amount of time, then, "Okay so-"
"Actually, I have Fused," The Denizen looked around, as though waiting for support.
When none other came forth, "Well, then, that is you lost. Too bad. So sad."
She froze, if this was a weapon, what the hell was a young man doing with a damn weapon? No wonder Puppeteer had always implied Reality was screwed up, she didn't know he meant it literally.

"Actually, I have Fused," The Denizen looked around, as though waiting for support.
When none other came forth, "Well, then, that is you lost. Too bad. So sad."

"well... Yes and no." He pats the weapon "I'm legally able to carry a pistol in public concealed, but this certain pistol is illegal to anyone but the Military." He looks at her "There's a lot about me that nobody knows Silvia, and I plan to keep it that way." He turns to her "So, consider this a warning. If I find out that you told anyone anything about me, people are gonna die." He says, his voice cold as ice.

"Ill explain: there are multiple dimensions Silvia, Earth has 11. You live in the 5th, we live in the 11th." Miles explains "A denizen is a person living in our dimension. For every human in this Dimension, they have a look-alike in our dimension. I'm Dale's Denizen, just like that girl was yours. One of our leaders is planning to invade and slaughter this Dimension, I came here to make sure that doesn't happen." He looks at her "You might want to know something about Dale, he's not the person you believe him to be..."

"Was that a threat?" She rose, not only was he rude, he also threatened someone when he was incapable of keeping his identity a secret. No doubt why Miles was so... She snarled internally, why the hell was she even thinking of Miles now? Time to change the way he looks at Silvia, no more nice girl attitude. She folded her arms across her chest, stepping back, "That belongs to you? Do you know, that in my researc- Why am I still talking to you? You are just one of those delinquents, who think that thy are so good! Well, tell you something, an underaged weilding a weapon is wrong! Why the fuck will you need a damn pistol for a jog?!" Her words enlightened herself, yes indeed, Reality was indeed screwed up and Puppeteer will be the one who purifies the Human race. She stepped back a few more steps and turned, running back to her Counterpart's house.

"Dale? What's wrong with him? And your leader... Slaughter why?!" Silvia's thoughts were whirling like an insane clockwork tower. Possibilities, everything and nothing. She felt slightly dizzy, the baseball bat slipped from her grasp and she said, "If you are sure... The girl said she was going to the park, maybe she might..." She paused, "Maybe she might try to harm Dale!!"
(Hey Commissar, I would appreciate it if we could keep Human laws in mind. And uh... who told you the RP was in the USA? This was actually located in Japan, where firearms were illegal in public hands. Sry if I sound funny or like an asshole, but there is no need to edit your post, the damage is done although you did kick the actionlevel up reasonably. I will ignore the 'Chicago' sentence.
And to all ppl, STR s getting pushed towards helping the Grey order, so do try and convince her that Humanity is worth protecting.)

(Both the pistol and his location are part of his backstory. He's originally from the US, and wasnt exactly a law follower, specifically a member of the Outfit (Chicago Mafia). And you could've said it was in Japan, I throughly had no idea. They're all American names, so I just assumed they were in America. I was going to add those into his History, but you didn't have us write the history. Sorry for the misunderstanding...)
"Your not Silvia." He says, running and stopping in front of Strength, and his right hand wraps around her neck. "How dare you pretend to be the love of my life! Who sent you? The Yakuza? The Latin Kings?" He says in a hushed anger "Didn't your parents ever tell you to not mess with a Mobster?"
******
"Uhh Silvia, I think Dale has the situation quite under control." He says, pulling her over to let her see. "By the looks of it, he figured out Strength wasn't you." They watch the fight quietly "He loves you you know." Miles says, breaking the silence and looking at the girl. "Dale's had a huge crush on you since Day 1. He would've said something, but he's too afraid youll say no."

[Okay]
Strength raised her left arm at head level, both her arms transforming into the smaller editions of mecha-fists. She spun clenching her teeth, she did not wish to hurt a human before the Emergence, however-
******
Silvia gasped, Strength was going to hit Dale in the face, with those arms, she would easily shatter Dale's skull. She called out a warning cry, "Watch out!"
******
Strength swung full out, and without bothering to register if it connected, she pushed away, stepping forward. Her left eye began to grow metallic, a red flow from within the pupil. She snarled at Dale, pointing with her mecha-finger at her cyborg eye, "Does this look like Yakuza? Does this look like it came from this place?! Huh?! You humans deserve to be purified!"
She sprinted, her steps creating deep footprints in the ground, she reached Silvia, wresting from her the red crystal. The metal fingers curled around the crystal, yet, Silvia did not let go. I MUST NOT LET GO. "Let go."
******
"No. you have some explanation to do." SHE HAS TO STAY, I WILL NOT LET GO.
******
Strength drew back her fist in preparation to smash her counterpart's face in, then she saw the reflection of herself within the eyes of her counterpart. NO!
Their forms were drawn towards each other, joining as one. Silvia looked down, her left eye highlighted terrain details, Dale's face, Mile's weapon, measurements of the length of the street, height above sea level, oxygen density levels... She looked down at her hands, within it she cradled the red crystal. Where was Strength? Then a voice within her skull echoed, 'I'm here. You have just ended my life in a way.' Then it struck her, she was now Strength. Her fist curled, soft mechanical whirling in a comforting manner. 'but before we move on, who are we known as?'
"I am, Strength."
[WOOOO! that's it, Silvia and Strength have fused! and it is decided, STR will aid in the defense! The situation may seem as though STR consumed Silvia, that can be Dale or Riley's reaction cue.]

"Uhh, What the Fuck just happened?" Dale asks, confused and astonished at what just occurred. "They Fused, now their two parts are one whole." Miles says, standing by Dale. "Is that between all Denizens and their Human Counterparts?" Dale looks at his counterpart. "Any Denizen can fuse with their counterpart in Reality." Dale walks up to Strength, and asks "Silvia, are you still in there?" He asks quietly, ready to jump out in case the Denizen side took over. "Look, Silvia, I have a confession to make..." Dale blushes a deep red, and rubs the back of his neck. "Ever since I arrived here, you were always there for me. You took me by the hand, and kept me going even after I really wanted to quit. Your the only real friend I've ever had. But... I want to be more than just friends." He looks down "Silvia, I...I...I love you..." He looks at here, loving compassion in his eyes.
OOC Notes
Silvia nodded mechanically, and would have gasped out loud if not for something, which held her in place, probably Strength's own personality. She sensed that should Strength be physically present, she would be cupping her face in her hands. And cursing, like her consciousness in Silvia's mind, 'Fack Fack Fack! You did not hear him say that! You never heard anything. This is going to screw up my weaponry very badly! Do not change your personality please! I love the way I am and I intend to keep it that way.'
Silvia reacted slowly, Strength's instincts were preventing her from behaving in her usual manner, "Uh, okay." She scratched her the back of her head, he likes me so... so... what? Then Strength's instinctive influence ebbed, leaving Silvia with herself to deal with Dale's words. "I mean... That's was why you kept figiting so much when you were close to me..." She looked up at Dale, her left eye assessing his facial expression. Nothing. Within her, Strength began to make a heck load of noise, cursing and swearing. Silvia was disgusted by the words which echoed throughout her head, I want to get out of this body, now!
The next thing she knew, she was standing on the street, shaking, disoriented. Her legs shook and buckled as her vision blurred.
******
Strength stood, watching her counterpart topple, she grasped the red crystal and held out and arm, too slow. The pavement rushed up to meet Silvia.

Riley
It was a quick ride to the park and not many people were out. She slowed her pace taking in the scenery. It was somewhat relieving, she could take her time looking around without worrying about accidently running someone over. She found a satisfying enough area and got off her bike. What with the quietness of the park, she assumed it'd be fine to just hide her bike in the tree-line. Content, she began to walk around the park, admiring the bright green hues and thickness of the vegitation. Her bag seemed to grow heavier as each step it knocked against her, as if what was inside was demanding to be let out. Surrendering, she dug her fingers into her satchel and pulled out her camera. It was only a digital camera, a graduation present from her parents, back before they tried living her life for her.. Eventually she would save up enough money to slurge on a better one, but this sufficed for now.
She heard voices in the distance. Judging from the amount of commotion it seemed something intense was going on. Feeling her 'inner detective' kick in she crept closer, keeping herself hidden within the foliage. It's times like these that make the best pictures. No one knows they're being watched, so you know what you capture on camera is real. She carefully pushed the leaves from her view and knelt studying the small group of teens that were gathered together. She squinted her eyes, seeing two boys and two girls. They seemd to be..fighting? She squinted at the situation again. Maybe she missed something, maybe they were practicing for a play? Theatre class was close to performing. The word 'Yakuza' caught her attention. Was this a gang fight? No way, they were too young.
Not wanting to risk anyone getting hurt she stood to break up the squabble. Her actions, however, stopped short as one girl swung to hit on of the boys, and her her arms transformed into something large and robotic. "WHAT THE FUCK?!"
The words just slipped out, leaving her to stand, half hidden in the bushes, too stunned to do anything but watch as everything she thought to be only possible in science fiction occured right before her eyes.

Tobias
He could only lay upon the ground as whatever that came into the portal disappeared once again, through a portal of their own making. It had happened very quickly and he desided it would be best to just lay there for a while and allow his breath and thoughts to catch up. Gathering himself, he sits up and dusts himself off. "Damn, that's the last time I ever stand near a frggin portal.." he mutters, taking a few steps back, his eyes locked on the area the two voids once occupied. /The guy who came out from the one portal and left threw one of his own. Apparently they're only open a certain amount of time, being that they aren't here any more../ his thoughts raced as he studied the area. "He said something about a crystal.."
He looked down into his hand. He had managed not to loose it despite what happened. Staing upon the shard he frowns. "What do I got to lose?" he mumbles softly to himself, slowly building up courage, "I was given this for a reason, right? Hell." He smiles ackwardly, confidence back, "I'm part of the revolution now." Using his refound energy he grips the shard tight, "Now how do I op-"
Cut off in mid sentence, the shard begins to grow hot in his hand, causing him to drop it. Upon impact, the crystal bursts, showering the area in a frenzy of light and buzzing energy. Hesitant, he looks on the active portal, his assuredness fading again. How did the others do it so quickly? He thinks to himself, frustrated at his fear. With an irritated growl he uses his frustration as fuel and forces himself through the void, hoping once he gets there, to find other recruits such as himself, so he could know what to do.

"Gotcha." Dale grunts as he catches Silvia only inches away from the ground. "Jeez, you can Fuse and unfuse at will?" He says, looking at Strength. "Is she going to be alright?" He asks, worried about the love of his life. "Hey Miles, your my Counterpart right? Doesn't that mean we can fuse as well?"
*****
"She'll be fine, only unconscious for about 5-10 minutes." Miles says, putting a comforting hand on Dale's shoulder. "And yes, we can Fuse, if you care to." Dale nods his head, and sets down Silvia on the pavement. He faces Miles, and their hands meet. They quickly Fuse together, as if they were always two parts of one whole. They take on Miles' style, and he quickly moves around to test if everything is alright. "Well, that went well." Dale says, stretching a bit. "So why did you unfuse Strength?" Dale says, but Miles answers first. "You see Dale, if the Human Counterpart has some sort of personality or mental change, it effects the Denizen as well. That's how Strength got that prosthetic eye."

Strength crouched over her counterpart like a protective crow, looking up and responding, "Both of us no longer had the intent to be in one body, thus we Unfused." and watched silently as the two males Fused. Her cybernetic eye scanned the area and then, she spotted an on-looker. Her cybernetic eye and mechanical arms faded away as she stood, shouting, "You there! Come here!" And then she kicked off the pavement, sprinting towards the stunned on-looker.
******
What happened. Silvia's eyes opened, merely registering the trees above before boots pounded the pavement beside her. She looked up just in time to see Strength charging towards an on-looker at top speed. She groaned and sat up. Dale was not there. She blinked dimly and asked Miles, "Where is Dale?" Her mind was basically in disarray. This is a dream , I'm going to wake up and find that it never happened. Never happened.
Only then did she realise that she wanted Strength around, even though she was so hot-headed at times. "Am I dead or something?"
******
Puppeteer twirled his staff again, clearing the smoke which had consumed the auditorium. Denizens were in a free-for-all match against the Grey Order. He laughed, pointing the drill tip of his staff to the monochrome ground. Twin blades floated behind him, silently awaiting for his mental directions. He saw a hulding figure,encased in black armor leap the length of the auditorium towards him. Puppeteer pointed with his staff and the two blades flew up to meet the man in mid-air, stringing him on the arm and forcing him to land in a heap before Puppeteer. He raised his hand, as though trying to deflect the drill.
Puppeteer smashed the drill into the solar plexus of the Denizen, tearing though the armor with a perpendicular strike. He smiled, as smoke poured out from the gaping hole. The man's fingers twitched, and Puppeteer pointed at the man before turning away. The only thing he heard was the crys of pain as the man was shredded by the twin blades.
[@Heartless, slight notification, Tobias should not appear in Silvia's house. For practical and theorical reasons. The portal by default opens close to the place where the counterpart rests (aka, sleeps). And uh- the on-looker would be you]

Okay, now that Heartless has left, you may control her characters the same way you do with NPCs. Any Questions on this do ask.
Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
Sorry for the frustration I'm guna cause everyone, but I'm leaving the RP.
You can have Strength kill Riley or something like that, 2.2zenith. It might add a plot twist or something.

@2.2zenith
Please don't make it seem like I'm trolling the OOC when I'm not. It's easier to explain/point stuff out here. You do it. That's what the OOC's for, right? To sort out stuff about the RP?
I'll PM you, though. Sorry if I offended anyone else who's read my posts.

Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
@Heartless, Denizens do not require sleep, so there is no such things as beds or dorms for them. I did mention that. And I am not trying to control anything I was just stating that in a different world, people dress differently. And I have associated dorms with school, that was why I stated it here
I did not try to control anyone, I merely stated my expectations of characters in my rp. Also, there were a heck load of things I could put up like spell-check enforcement, read clearly, ect. But did I? No, I didn't, because this is an RP, not a book. So do refrain from making such accusations. After all, as a GM, I do have to ensure that everything is in running order instead of the RPers going all rampant. If that happened, I wouldn't be the GM anymore. You guys would be the GMs.
Yes, Tobias may be your character but in the Otherworld, Denizens are dressed for combat, not to be socially acceptable by others like Humans. Tobias has to behave and dress like a Denizen. It would be strange when Tobias dresses up like a human and stays in the 11th dimension. You wouuld not expect an alien to dress the same way a human does. It is not very helpful in combat to be wearing skinny jeans and polo-tees. Yes, you can have a fashion sense like Strength, who wears reinforced Oranex fabric, which can stop rifle bullets at medium range. Just an example.
The phrase always watching over their counterparts was mentioning the Order's actions in studying humanity's struggles, the Order's members are composed of Denizens after all. If your character used the portal before, then I have nothing to say as he has seen the 5th dimension before. And I did state "Any questions, do ask me."
Should anyone want me to further clarify anything about this RP, do ask. After all, a picture paints a thousand words, and a RP is obviously more than just a video, which is more than a image, with words and sensations, it could be more than millions of words. And I could not possibly anticipate your choices or grey zones where RPers would run into as this is a world and it is already hard enough for a police force to corner a single criminal in a single town.
And Heartless, if you wish to type this kind of messages, do it via PM instead of coming here and making a ruckus of how you failed to read clear instructions again. Oh yeah, no need to get offended, I was merely stating the facts.

And Heartless, if you wish to type this kind of messages, do it via PM instead of coming here and making a ruckus of how you failed to read clear instructions again. Oh yeah, no need to get offended, I was merely stating the facts.

@2.2zenith
You never said anything about a schooling system for Denizens and neither did I. You claimed Denizens arrive where their counterparts rest/sleep. Riley's a college student, thus she sleeps in a dorm, thus he teleports to her school. You also, never said anything about atire. I figured since Denizens 'always watched over their human counterparts silently' they would know how to engage with the humans and fit in, since they're invading and such. And it's my character. Why can't he wear what I want him to wear?
In Tobias' character profile his weapons are nanites. So he looks completely normal unless he's using them.
It's like your trying to control some of the stuff that other people are doing. Not by a whole lot, but enough. To make things less confusing you should put exactly what goes on with Denizens and how the humans' reactions are, so people aren't posting stuff and then being told to edit and such.
Please don't take offense to what I'm writing. I'm not trying to be a dick, just merely pointing some stuff out.

Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
well, they should look alike, and the Denizen's apparel changes whenever their Human counterparts experience a change in personality.
Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
okay! I'll fix it up!
jw, isn't silvia and dale in middle school? cause it says dale is 17 so i was thinking jonathan would be in middle school as well!
edit: btw I have a question, so the denizens are human counter part, does that mean they look alike can they have different personalities?

Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
Okay, pudding I have read up your character sheets. Locket and Grimm. Well, seeing the fact that he is lazy, what makes him well-liked? Add the reason into the personality. And as for Grimm, why does he care so much about Locket, considering the fact that they have never met before. Once these questions are answered, your characters shall be approved.
And one last question, since Johnathan is 17, he would be in Highschool right?
@Heartless, uh... The Otherworld has no schooling system. The Denizens will automatically gain knowledge through their counterparts. The only thing they have to learn is to survive. Aaaand your character should look at the very least like a cosplayer to the untrained eye when wielding his weapons and in his Otherworld attire, which means he would stand out more... In a strange way.

Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
Well, pudding, you are required to create character(s) in the roleplay. Go to the first post and click the link. Create a character and obtain approval for it also, I must emphasize on decent length post. I will not accept any lesser than five lines of words. Any questions on this RP, do ask before making a post. And if possible, do use spell-check
Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
hello hello ^^ I'm new to this place! but this game sounds so interesting! Anyways nice to meet everyone! (please excuse my noobness cause im figuring things out atm...) am i aloud to start posting?
Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
Okay, I am now developing a Vehicle concept for this rp. So do try to come up with something that will be suitable for your Denizen+Human team. The design of your vehicle is supposed to be a Denizen of a Denizen if you know what I mean. If not, read on.
The vehicle will appear when your Denizen or Fused character kills a Denizen or another Fused in Reality, aka 5th dimension. The vehicle will NOT teleport into sight. Just that both your Human and Denizen will be aware of this new third party. The vehicle had to be summoned by a certain hand gesture, unique only to your pair, in ALL dimensions. It can be summoned by Human, Denizen or Fused. Subsequent killings will result in upgrades in the vehicle. I will put up a video which features what type of vehicles to expect in a couple of days in the ooc, along with an update on the intro.
If you have any suggestions or questions, do make them known on this ooc.

Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
well, it was good. I don't like people who just fall from orbit and smash into the commotion on the first post.
Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
Sorry for the horrible post. I wasn't really sure where my character should go or how she would come across anyone else. I can edit it if needed or necessary.
Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
okay, Commisar, you have a character neighbor, made by bizzare

Re: [OOC] The Otherworld: First Emergance
Hm, I must've skipped Gaunt's post. I swore I posted right after Strenght pushed him through her portal...
Guess I got some revising to do then. Sorry for the hiccup. I feel pretty dumb now.
