The Forbidden Power (Interest Check/OOC) ( )

Postby xoxMissClairexox on Sun Jun 21, 2009 12:04 am

*This is a role-play set up by myself, xoxMissClairexox, and Magix. It is a remake of the original “The forbidden Power” aimed at starting fresh with a new bunch of people*


Background:

It's the year 3054, almost 5000 years ago the power of auras were discovered. The secret was kept and lost to most of the world. Now only a small group remain that still have the knowledge of auras and have unlocked their true power. Aura's make guns useless so the only way to combat them is to by hand to hand combat weapon (swords, axe, etc.) and other aura wielders. Each person has an aura of a certain colour that gives them different physical characteristics, personality traits, and powers.

Plot:

The group of Aura users have been declared criminals in the sight of society today. They were considered Criminals because of the King. He himself is an aura user but he has kept it as a secret from the people. With his armies growing and his firm grip on the world, he needs to destroy all who oppose him and these aura users ruin all of his plans. If he wants complete control of the world and its economy, he has to destroy the menaces and get rid of his own powers.

The aura users have been quite peaceful till the wars broke out against them. They’re being hunted by Aura eaters that are demon-like dogs that absorb ones aura and kill the aura users in their defenceless state. Armies have been sent to hunt them and most have failed. But with the world against them…How long could they last especially with the aura eaters out there.

Auras:
Red: These people are usually Average height and build. Their personality is one that is sure of themselves and always wanna get in on the action, they also have nasty tempers. They control fire.
Blue: These people are usually a little bit above average height and are about average build. They have a laid back personality, but that doesn't mean to underestimate them on the battlefield. They control Water.
Green: These People are both above average height and build. They have a changing personality. Sometimes they could be tame and sometimes they could be violent. They control the wind.
Yellow: These people are usually Average height and build. They have a violent personality but can be kind. They are ideal warriors. They control Lightning.
Brown: These people are very large. They are some of the best warriors out their and they can withstand harsh conditions. They control Earth.
Purple: These people are usually Average height and build. They are very drawn away from large crowds. The live alone or around very few. They are talented in battle but they don't like working with others which make them hesitant from joining the war. They control Ice.
White: These people are below average height and build. They aren't very good warriors but are skilled with bow and arrows. They are also skilled in Healing. They control Healing and the light.
Black: These People are average height but above average build. They are skilled warriors but hate the White aura people. They control the darkness.

Rules:

No godmodding
No overpowering
No dual Auras

Character Skeleton
Name: Emi
Age: 15
Appearance: Image
Side (not too many bad aura wielders): Good
Aura Colour (if a wielder): White: These people are below average height and build. They aren't very good warriors but are skilled with bow and arrows. They are also skilled in Healing. They control Healing and the light.
Bio: Emi grew up in a normal home until she was about 12 and her mother died. Her father then became completely withdrawn from her and ignored her. It was as if she didn’t exist. Emi thought that her father blamed her because she had been out the day of her mother’s accident and if she had been home she would have been able to heal her mother. When the King’s army heard word of her and her ability and came after her, her father didn’t seem at all troubled by it. Emi managed to escape but has never been home since.
Additional personality traits (if any): Emi occasionally is very quick to blame herself and her self esteem isn’t as high as it used to be. She is quiet in the presence of stranger but once you get to know her she will come out of her shell a little more.
Weapons: bow and arrows
Played by: xoxMissClairexox


Name: Scythe
Age: 29
Appearance: 5' 9, above average build. Has dark blue eyes, and black spikey hair. He wears thick black armour with spikes protruding from all around it.
Side: Evil
Aura Colour: Black
Additional traits: He is very evil and sadistic. He loves torture. The more pain he causes the more he enjoys it.
Weapon: A large scythe that he wears on his back. (More details about it will be explained later)
Position/Rank: Kings right hand man
Bio: TBR
Played by: Magix


Name: Xen (Pronounced Zen)
Age: 16
Appearance: 5'7, average build. Has purple eyes and light violet hair. He wears a vest, T-shirt, and pants that sometimes vary in colour. For the most part he wears a purple vest and t-shirt with black pants.
Side: Good
Aura Colour: Purple
Additional traits: Unlike most purple wielders he has a warmish personality and doesn't mind the company of others for the most part.
Weapons: He carries a special net made of a nylon and metal compound. It is both flexible and hard to break. He uses a unique battle style in where he disarms his opponent, binds them with the net, and quickly disposes of them. It is vert effective on Aura Eaters.
Position: Regular but strong solider
Bio: Has a dark past with scythe. The rest is TBR.

Name: King Caleb "Cal" Jerimiah
Age: 29
Appearance: Caleb has an oddly baby-ish face, in a bland way, but it's a pockmarked record of war. He's pale, with very light, very dull brown hair that's a rough inch-long fuzz. His eyes are also very pale and dull.
There is something unhealthy-looking about his face, though he looks only about 25 or 30 and his body is strong and vital.
He rarely washes and his skin and hair and clothes are often soiled with old sweat.
His clothes are always extremely comfortable and all-white. Somehow they stay all white even after a particularly horrible rampage - you can see him leave a room, hear screams, and he'll come back in with red hands but clean everything else.
Side (not too many bad aura wielders): Evil
Aura Colour (if a wielder): red
Bio: Cal considers himself a god.
It's not really his fault - from childhood he's been treated as one. Somehow he inspires extreme loyalty among his subjects as their emperor, despite being almost completely made up of flaws. He's narcissistic, selfish, sadistic, and, though he isn't completely devoid of intelligence, he often chooses not to use it. It seems his subjects generally delude themselves in an almost 1984 double think kind of way.
He doesn't go by any title - by now his very name is a title, anyway.
Caleb is extremely cruel to those who serve him, hurting them horribly just for fun. but, always, always, their "noble", "kind" leader comes out of it looking pure and clean, but with the subtle flash every now and then of blood-drenched palms.
Additional personality traits (if any): Cal's expressions generally reflect either disinterested amusement or disinterested boredom. If he's not on a killing-and-maiming rampage, you can count on him looking and feeling disinterested. He can sometimes be intrigues by certain indiviual people, but he still considers them by far his inferiors and his interest is unreliably fleeting.
Weapons: He's long past doing actual fighting himself, and would probably get killed in a few moments now if he wasn't a Wielder. However, his narcissism won't let him admit this and he continually seeks to shed his undignified, lowly Aura.
He might carry on him a dagger or two, and keeps near him a huge, pearlecent sword, but it's more for show than anything.
Played by: Diedra

Name: Hinata "Red" Miko
Age: 24
Appearance:
[imghttp://i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq119/BlackAssassin_Sakura/Anime/femaleninhokagepipehair.jpg[/img]
Side (not too many bad aura wielders): Rebellion Leader (Good)
Aura Colour (if a wielder): Brown
Bio: Red was born to a family of Aura Wielders. Her father started the rebellion, but a few months late, he was killed leaving Red in charge of the rebellion. At the time, she was only 17, and there was barely anyone in the rebellion. It was her, the second in command at the time, and one other person. The only member got killed off duty, and the second in command had to resign so that left just her. She then wandered around, making sure she didn't get killed. She wandered around, gaining members, and looking for someone to appoint as her 2nd in command. Soon after though, she found someone to be second in command, someone who was rising in the ranks quickly. She gained his trust, and she trusted him in turn.
Additional personality traits (if any): Red has a wicked temper, she's brutally strong, and she's a strategist when calm. Red tells the truth no matter what the situation is, and she's a strict, but mentally and physically strong leader. She has trust issues, and trusts very few people, but to those she trusts, she is fiercely loyal and trustworthy.
Weapons: Red wields a rather large sword, as well as a smaller sword.
Played by: Demon Goddess

Name: Lucas Leingod (Goes by Soki)
Age: 19
Appearance: He stands at 6'6 and is built like a solid wall he can't be found without extremly baggy like colthes a trench coat made of navy blue and crimson, he also wears old styled jeans baggy and spiked at the knees. His boots are steel toed. He has slightly long black hair that he keeps styled in his own personal way and mismatched eyes Blood red for his right and gold for his left.
Side (not too many bad aura wielders): Good
Aura Colour (if a wielder):Brown
Bio: He was never truly safe at all, being as strong and great a fighter he was. Once he learned he had an aura he was hunted like a dog. He fought at first killing a few of his enemies but he got overwhelmed to quickly and had to run. Soon he was in hiding, he always wore his hood up and never truly helped anyone at all anymore.
Additional personality traits (if any): He feels like an outcast to everyone he meets, so he treats them the same way. Though once he trusts you he'll stand by you as loyal as any other person.
Weapons: He has his personal customized Swords his Masamune and a broadsword things to his strength and height he can wield these huge weapons, and it fits his sword fighting style.
Played by: Soki

Name: Asher
Age: 21
Appearance: Image
Side: Good
Aura Colour: Red
Bio: Asher grew up being taught to hate aura wielders. When he was in his early teens, it became evident that he was one. His family, unable to kill him as they would any other aura wielder, cast him out. He lived on his own, chased by the King's army at every turn. He couldn't stay in one place for long.
When he heard of the rebellion, he decided to join. They took him in, and taught him how to control his abilities. With charisma and skill, he made his way up the ranks, becoming the Rebellion leader's most trusted ally.
Additional personality traits: Because of how he was scorned and disowned by his family, he tries not to attach himself to other people for fear of being once again cruelly rejected. It takes a lot to gain his trust.
Weapons: A standard sword, and occasionally, throwing daggers.

I like it
A few things:
When the rp starts the rebellion won't be big. It'll be mostly the leader and 2nd in command (the rest will be NCP's) trying to find new members.
If you fine with that you'll be fine to be 2nd in command. I'm sure xoxMissClairexox will agree as well.

Alright cool.

Welcome to the rp
We need at least the king and the rebellion leader before we can begin, although personally I'd like more. If noone's joining though we can start with them once we get it.
