Introduction
There was a time where peace spread through out Spira. Though everyone had there differences and teachings, there was never a horrible threat, like Sin. Whom my people call 'The Destroyer of Planets'. It came for us about 40 years ago, Tales of summoners and pilgrimages enchanted the dreams of the children, in hopes that maybe our reign of terror will someday end. Even though, the practices of Yevon have long been forgotten, what gives children hope, is what gives elders smiles. Some died, trying to fight Sin, or in most cases hopes of surviving the apocalyptic state in which Spira had endured. It was a terrible loss. Cities fell, anarchy and murdering others for survival became a promise. In the end, Sin Spawns, what my people have come to call Seekers, were created. Seekers are the offspring Sin, though not nearly as strong---perhaps a couple warriors could take a single one down, though they travel in multiples, thus making them powerful in numbers.
After Sin felt as though it could bring as much destruction as possible by turning cities into ruins, killing off many chocobos and wild creatures, it left Spirian lands. More than likely, it's hidden in the vast ocean somewhere, leaving Seekers to roaming the lands of Spira in hopes of finding some civilization, only to destroy whoever may still remain. There was a place, known as The Safe Zone after Sin had done it's promising, some thought it was untouched by the purging evils. Beings from all over Spira crossed the land in order to find this little manmade village created in the forest of Besaid. Surprisingly, there was a healthy number of survivors who made it, unharmed, with families. Here, everyone is family though, since we are the last ones standing of all the races. Teachings of combat, magic, and other helpful practices have been passed down from generation to generation, in order to hunt for food, create helpful weapons, armors, potions, and gadgets, to ensure the sick don't die, and to kill and Seekers if ever necessary. For the past 40 years, this is where people have together in harmony. Though something strange has been according lately. The visit of pyreflies.
It seems that some of the younger adults have been attracting pyreflies. The Elders have told them, that the ones chosen by the pyreflies are the Guardians of Spira. The last people strong enough to perhaps take Sin down. Could Sin finally be put to rest, and Spira become safe again? Or will the young heroes fall to there demise and will Spira just become another world distinguished by The Destroyer of Planets?

"My Cure spell, could only work as a light, but only temporarily. The art of White Magic is different from Black Magic I presume. At in Black Magic you take pieces of your Mana Pool to cast out a array of spells being disruptive towards the area it influences, while in White Magic, you drain large portions of your Mana Pool in a short amount of time, which can be quite tiring, yet it does restore itself rather quickly, especially if you have an adrenaline rush in mid-battle!" Elle knew how magic worked, and she knew that Aura was also very knowledgeable as well, so she tried to have a Mage to Mage conversation with her, she knew that it would be beneficial if they both became close, since they were the only mages amongst the group."I'm sure eventually you'll catch on. You're a strong mage, I wish I was as powerful as you are." Elle begun to blush slightly, everything she said was true. Seeing Aura cast her magic made Elle wish she could do more, but that was the life of a healer...always wishing they could do more.

She rummaged around some of the shelves, βI understand, all of this about guardians is a lot to take in. I was just expecting on researching spells my entire life, and now I find im about to travel with people I know to an Airship.... I wonder what flying feels like.β She pondered, still rummaging around, until she found what she was looking for, a dusty old lantern. There were tons of these lying around, for late nigh studying. She opend the tiny little door, and snapped. Lightning arced out, igniting the eick, casting light. Now armed with sight, she was able to find and light the other lanterns, until a dim glow filled the room.
βBeing strong isn't quite what it's cracked up to be.β Aura said, grabbing a stool, and Sitting next to Elle. βYou have to be careful not to get too greedy, and cast a spell you aren't prepared for... I think having a White Mage's talents would come in handy more than that of a Black. I tried casting a white spell, when I was little, but I couldn't tap into my energies deep enough, so I went with Black, witch requires speed instead of depth.β She explained

She thought for a second, Where would I find help? She hated being out of the loop on things, it always causes problems if you don't know what's going on.
There were too many for Ana to fight them off now. They all stood at a stand still, waiting for the other to act first. Ana's guns pointed at them, the Seekers ready to cast a spell or rush her. A piece of burning lumber fell to the ground, springing Ana into action.
She ran right at them, they did the same. Right as they were about to clash she cast Haste, giving her the added boost to run past them without a scratch. She hoped she could find someone this way, and then let them deal with this.

His thoughts cut off abruptly as he rounded an upcoming corner and came face to face with a pair of blades raised to kill. Kries staggered back a step before he recognised the face. It was one of the otehrs. One of the other ones that had been summoned by the elders. Kries let out a huge breath as the blades fell to his shoulders. "That would have been terrible" Kries heard Yuri say. "No kidding", thought Kries in response. But he said nothing as he let out the breath of air he didn't realize he had taken.
Yuri talked fast, obviously in a rush, and spat out the information on the situation. The microphone! Yes, that would make sense. Kries had worked on the speakers and knew basically how the microphone should work. But the rest of what Yuri said was troubling. The seekers were after them? Did this have anything to do with why the elders had called them? Or more to a fact, the pyreflies? Did the seekers have instructions to hunt pyreflies or mass quantities of them? And why would that be..?
Kries shook his head to stop his analysis. No time. So the plan was obvious it seemed. get the villagers to the mages guild then get to this... airship!? When had there ever been an airship here? He knew they existed and all, but he had never seen one around the safe zone, well, not that they had any reason to LEAVE the safe zone. But they didn't have any choice but to trust this information right now. If they had the mobility of an airship, they could get a respite from the seekers.
Kries nodded to Yuri and ran off with him in the direction of the hall with the microphone.
Soon the pair entered the room, not much worse for the wear. Well, Kries was at least, he couldn't really tell about Yuri. The man fought like he was posessed, and Kries quickly understood why the man was scarred. Kries panted slightly as he ran up to the microphone, hoping Yuri would take it easy for a bit. He looked down at the bord and began punching buttons for the machina. then he took a deep breath.
"Attention everyone. Report to the Mages guild to hold out there. There are other people there and you will be safe. Bring your weapons and discard anything that will slow you down. Speed is of priority."
Kries punched a few more buttons and the message began to loop on itself. Wasn't exactly professional, but it got the message across. Safety was at the Mage's guild and bring the weapons. And most importantly, speed was of the essence. Kries walked back over to Yuri. "So... now is the part where we get out of here?"

"I cleared out as many seekers, as I could see on my way here." His first actual sentence to both of them today, if at all in his entire life. He then settled into a relaxed posture leaning against a wall. Well he had made it, and he was sure that the rest of them would too; honestly if they didn't the pyreflies wouldn't have chosen them; so he had no reason to worry, then again that didn't stop him from worrying at all, his family coming to mind foremost. His worries were probably misplaced, due to his father and mother teaching him everything he knew, so in retrospect, they were destined to make it. He shifted his position a little, quietly observing his surroundings and taking in to account of every possible defensive position they could take in the place, and the best place for him to unleash some backstabs on any unsuspecting seekers. "So, our next move?" He asked, feeling that there was something he didn't know; the message from Kries being a little limited, other then on what the present holds, and since he was already here, and they had time; they could at least explain what their next move would be, they had to find a way off the island; if there wasn't one already told to one, or both of them.
"Right behind you Chief," Yuri said as he followed behind Kries. The fellow should know where he was going. It didn't take long for them to find themselves in the room with the microphone, Yuri's brow beginning to glisten with sweat and blood. As Kries began to fiddle with the microphone, Yuri took this oppurtunity to sit his blades down against the wall and try his best to wipe off the blood. He couldn't do much without a good bit of soap and water and all he was doing was further smearing it on his arms. He did manage to wipe off his forehead, however. The stinging mixture was getting on his nerves.
When Kries had finally gotten the Microphone working, Yuri found himself sitting against the wall, resting. Ever since the Pyreflies had descended, he had been running to and fro and it was beginning to take it's toll on his stamina. The beast within may have had a limitless supply of energy, but he was just a man and had limits.
Finally, Kries began to speak into the microphone. There was a delay between his voice and the booming speakers outside, "Attention everyone. Report to the Mages guild to hold out there. There are other people there and you will be safe. Bring your weapons and discard anything that will slow you down. Speed is of priority."
Yuri looked up to Kries as he approached. "So... now is the part where we get out of here?" "Probably," Yuri responded. He then used his blade to help himself to his feet, "We need to make our own way to the Guild now. Elle and Aura should be there," He really hoped they made it safely, a concern that was clearly plastered across his face. "Oh, and keep an eye out for Ryuu and Daia, they were chosen too," Yuri stated. Looking out the door he shrugged, and shouldered his blades. "Well, into the breach once more, yeah?" Yuri said, turning towards the door and leaving the building and back into the city, all the while Kries's voice booming around him.

Dai was silent for a moment but then nodded and gave her a broad smile, "will do. But, i'm going to be mad if I find out you got hurt," she said to her, her tone sounding teasingly, though she slightly meant it. She turned and quickly began to head back in the direction she came; looking back every once in a while, trying to make sure she wasn't going to get attacked by more Seekers.
Though, before she could go any farther, she slowed down to an almost complete stop as she heard the announcement about going to the Mages Guild for safety. Her already slowed pace now turned into a stop as she looked around quickly to mentally map out the best way to get there, or more like, the fastest way to get there. Though, that only lasted for a short moment before she nodded and started moving again. As she did so, she made sure she kept Guardwind close, keeping her eyes open. Soon enough though, her eyes caught hold of Yuri and Kries, she turned slightly, keeping at the same speed, and she made her way to them.

What bothered her even more is the monsters or lack there of. They couldn't all be gone, not in a long shot. She really didn't care and just kept moving. The fewer interruptions the better, and the sooner she got to the Mage's Guild the better. So it's like betterΒ², and better x better is always good. Enough of the math lesson.
With the speed boost wearing off, Ana luckily arrived at the Guild just in time for it to be gone. She gasped for air as she readjusted to her normal breathing pattern.
"Phew, this could give someone a heart attack. Sure does feel great while it lasts though." She entered into the guild and found two younger girls, with some odd similarities around them. She couldn't quite place it though.
She approached them and said, "Is there someone in charge around here that can tell me what's going on? If there's an escape plan then I'm all ears or was I just told to come here to prolong my death?"

"Let's take our friend's advice and get there, yeah? It's probably the safest place to be right now," He said, absentmindedly leaving out the bit about them having to leave on some adventure or whatever. To be quite honest, even Yuri himself hadn't completely wrapped his mind around it. It was a lot to take in in a couple of hours, so surely he would be forgiven for it. "Let's go," he said, and jerked his head toward the direction of the Mage's guild. Once again he found himself hoping everyone had made it there okay. Oddly enough, the first people in his mind weren't his parents, but Elle and Aura. Yuri knew his parents could take care of themselves, his father was a Soldier and his mother an Alchemist. They would be fine, if not guiding people to the guild themselves. He didn't just happen upon his protective streak.
Before long, they too came to the Mage's Guild. A number of people were already beginning to find their ways to the guild. Yuri turned to Daia and Kries, "Right, see if you can do anything to help these people. I'm going to check to see if Elle and Aura made it. Be ready to move though, we should be leaving soon," In an airship, that they had no idea about. Really, how do you hide a bloody thing like that? He shook his head, realizing he forgot to explain to Daia exactly what was happening... Maybe Kries could do it, he thought as he entered the guild.
As he searched, Yuri found his father laying a wounded man down on his bed as his mother worked with various herbs and magic to heal. "Boy!" His father called. Yuri stopped in his tracks as he was so intent on his first objective, he hardly saw his father. The older man in steel armor and salt-and-pepper hair and beard approached Yuri and shook hands with his son, "Glad you made it in one piece... Er, at least I hope you did," He added, seeing Yuri covered in blood. "Don't worry, it's not all mine dad," He said with a shrug. "Gave them hell did you? Good, I knew I raised a fighter," He said with a proud of smile, "I'm about to head back out to see if I can't get any one else. Come with me?" He asked. Yuri winced, but shook his head. He wanted to go aid his dad, he really did. But he had to find Elle and make sure she was alright.
His father shook his head in acceptance. "Alright... Suppose a guard would be busy here. Alright, alright. Keep safe, and don't do anything... Extraneously stupid, yeah?" His father said before patting Yuri on the shoulder and pushing past him. "Mother," Yuri nodded towards the short woman working fervently on her concoctions. A quick swat of the hand was all the answer he got, so focused was the woman. That's all he needed and he nodded with a smile. Yeah, they'll be alright.
Once again he began his such of the girl. And before long, he managed to find her in a room with Aura and... Another. Anatasia, he remembered her. She ran a knick-knack shop. At least she was okay to. "There you are," he said to Elle, "and you too, Aura. Ana," he said, nodding towards the pirate. Again, his eyes drifted back to the white mage. "So... Now what?" He asked. The people seemed to be holding the fort down there well enough. Should they go ahead and slip away? Who knew, Yuri didn't want to make that decision.
They had met up with Daiavani along the way, another one of those that had been called to the temple. In fact, if Elle was here, everyone whom had been called to the temple was at the mages guild already. If that was true, then they should be able to leave soon. And the sooner they left, the sooner they could get the village back to peace.
Well, at least apparently. The elders had no reason to lie to them at this point, but how could they know why the seekers would attack. And why would the seekers be after them? Kries winced as he sat on the ground next to the doorway and continued to think. Something was amiss here. The seekers knew where the village was. If they had the capacity to follow pyreflies, they should have been able to figure that out. Then why not attack until now. The obvious answer was that it was not necessary at that point, or that they didn't have the capacity. So something about the pyreflies had triggered something in the seekers, something that forced them to attack. Well, now that he thought back, the elder mentioned something about them being able to defeat sin. That would make sense, the pyrelies triggered that ability, whatever it was, in them and now the seekers wanted to eliminate the threat.
So now this left him with even more questions. Why attack? Why not just concentrate on defending Sin? Or if they indeed had to visit all of the temples, why not concentrate their defenses there? It seemed to make more sense to him. But then again, maybe he was giving them too much credit for their ability to think. But his other question was more disturbing. What was it the elders knew? And how did they know it?
No time to ask the question now, if they stayed around longer than they had to, the elders may just die before they leave. And then their information would vanish in smoke. So it all led back to escaping, as soon as possible.
Kries stood back up, wincing as he put pressure on his injured left arm. He could fix that up when they got to the ship. He didn't really need it to fire his gun. And he didn't want to take the medicine or effort from the people there. But it was a good idea to group up and leave if they were all there. Kries took a deep breath and began to look around for Elle, Yuri or Dai to decide what they should do next.

She looked around again, βWe should probably do it before the others arrive. We may get stopped by friends family, and the like. We may not get a chance to return anytime soon... I hope this airship has food... or a place/ way to get someβ She said, also wishing for other things, like a library, or a place to make her poisons and other concoctions.... though she would ask Elle is she could learn to make restoratives as well... she figured she could be of use best that way.
βIn any case, lets go find and power this ship. β She said, grabbing a lantern, βEveryone should grab a candle. It's pretty dark in here. We'll leave through the back way.... I think that would be best. I'm Aura, for those who don't know me that well. I know this guild like the back of my hand, so I should be able to lead us, even in the dark... either me or Elle could, really.
(its not much... but i can't do much else without lost)

Re: [OOC] FFX: Guardians of Spira
So... INCOMING WALL O' POST.
Well, how about this. We all (well, not all. A GM character or characters have to be present to keep fluidity, but I digress) are new recruits to a relatively unkown clan with a badass name. New recruits are needed in mass for the Clan wars, where two or three factions are vying for power and control. Be it a war between choas and order (IE Laws or no laws), or land dispute whatever. I'm spouting out a rough exposition. Anyway, our clan (With a badass name) is embroiled into this conflict. So we fight in a couple of engagements at the behest of a superior clan, and perhaps a couple of unimportant NPCs drop from nonsanctioned battles to create drama. Either way, as our clan battles, we begin to get noticed and sent on more dangerous missions until at some point we about as badass as our name, and then we realise there is a more sinister reason behind the war, discovered in some shocking manner. A save the world type thing. This wouldn't be privvy to the players in the beginning to give the RP that twist. We find out that the faction we are working for only warred under the guise of Law vs Chaos or what have you in order to attain world domination or to resurrect a god (I won't say to become gods themselves, because that would totally be ripping off a certain RP I was a part of, and still am), or destroy the world. Rough exposition fellas. Any way, at that point we are presented options. Keep fighting for that or break off and rebel, or something of that nature. By this point, we're a badass clan with a name that matches that wields a certain amount of respect in both factions (somehow), so if we do break off, some other clans would join with us, and we could hook up with rebels from the other faction as well and have a good ol' fashioned mexican stand off. Some more people die to create angst and mood, more battles, skirmishes, perhaps have some of the veteran players run with their own squad within the clan if they wish, be it a small unit of archers (Another rip from that RP I mentioned, but it's ripped from me. I have a small squad of archers) or a larger squad of melee.
Fight, fight, fight, battle, blood, endgame, everyone's depressed because the best and most badass RP ever created is over. Or it could flounder and die at the second or third sentence up there, but hey, what's wrong with trying? Plus, this may require more than one RP chapter.
What you guys think of my wall o' post? Feel free to edit, and change as you want, like I said. Concept man here.
Re: [OOC] FFX: Guardians of Spira
Re: [OOC] FFX: Guardians of Spira
Re: [OOC] FFX: Guardians of Spira
Maybe have factions rise up and begin to fight each other for whatever reason, and all of the clans have to choose a side, or be left jobless. So there's a big background plot going on, which leaves us and our clan being ordered about by the faction we "Chose". Blah, blah, blah, plot explanation, etc, etc, etc. If you really want to listen to my rambling en mass, just shoot me a PM and I'll write up a big ass exposition for you to shift through at your convenience. I could write a decent story, I believe, but I do not want to be the one to execute it or lead it. I do not have... a good track record of GMing an RP. I'm more of an idea and concept guy. I'll leave that to you guys.
Re: [OOC] FFX: Guardians of Spira
And yeah, I guess we should get moving and thinking about the new one, or revival, so I guess I should give my two sense in.
First, with the current idea of the second pilgramage. the issue I have with it is that we would be constrained to lore. Because we all have played FFX, so we all know how it would end. There is no suspense to the story. And also this would be before Sin had a chance to completely break the hearts of Spira, so there would be many machina cities, instead of the ones we would find in FFX. Now, this has a profound impact of the people of the time, because they don't know that Sin is only targeting Machina cities, they would be trying to rebuild their machina cities, and whatnot. Also, at this point, we would have no idea how people would travel, or their standard of living, as it is only alluded to in Tidus' memories. So basically we would get the setting for the RP from our memories of limited cutscenes, and this with the limited creativity it entails with the plot, is my concern.
So, what do we do about this? We have a few options, for one we could completely disregard FFX-2 and create a sequel to FFX. The Fayth have stopped dreaming and there is now a power vaccuum with Bevelle toppled. So what would happen then, would Yuna be looked to as a new leader after her defeat of Sin? And what of her guardians? Would they just go back to run of the mill lives, and how would that effect the world, and then how can we place new characters into this new stew to stir the pot? But personally, I don't like dealing with cannon characters, since I don't have confidence I could keep them to their personalities and voices as the designers had. And also this senario has no obvious plot, other than the obvious power vaccum. Or, just a thought, perhaps after Yuna's group is done and Sin is destroyed, not all of the Fayth have stopped dreaming, and our group wants to figure out why, or these fayth have an effect of us and force us to investigate. Just a spontanious thought, so I really don't have anything else on that plot.
Or a final idea is to make a world based on FFX. Perhaps we only take the idea of a world that has a calamity that prevents the technology from developing, or a religon ruling the world based on false premise. Or we take the world and put it into a different spin, such as what if Yevon had different factions within itself, simmilar to christianity, and each vying for it's own piece of power. And how would this play into the pilgramage, and would a summoner be forced to choose a faction to back and then would the other factions attempt to kill that summoner?
Really, I don't know very much, and at this point, I am rambling with any idea that pops into my head. But I hope this will provoke some thought and hopefully get this thing going once more.

Edit: So I made a new RP. Hit it up guys see if you like it, not about Final Fantasy but ya know, it's still pretty awesome. Not completely done yet but you know how long it takes to make these.

Oh well, we could always do the cliched plot in every Final Fantasy game and save the world. Except for maybe XIII. I didn't play through XIII much. Maybe a couple of hours... Then someone said "It doesn't get good until twenty hours." Lolrite. Don't have that kind of time investment.
But yeah, FFX is good, I just don't know how to build a plot around it.

And because Yuri is heavily influenced by Tactics.
Sad to see this go though, having to abandon Yuri's and Elle's romantic sub-plot.
