Introduction
Retribution is a funny word. Unfortunately it’s no longer recognized or used in this time and in this world. Some people would describe the world as great, fun, surprising, but ever since the plague hit and the new widower king has taken charge. Ever since this happened, both at the same time, the kingdom, Balor, had gone to chaos, and worse, the plague has started to spread. This led to the separation of the rich and the poor, the people with less money being put closer to the plague while the wealthier are kept behind a wall and safe from the infected.
They were like two different worlds. The rich had everything they wanted, two story houses, backyards, beautiful horses, quality food, and an actual roof over their heads. The poor, on the other hand, suffered greatly from the plague. Riots broke out downtown and the place just reeked plainly of death because of how many dead corpses were found lying around without being properly disposed of. Usually, the king would do something about this, burning the bodies and searching for a sort of cure, but he did nothing after finding out his wife was taken by it without even baring a child. In fear, he hid his adopted child within the walls of the rich, shielding him from the impurity of the poor and ill. Because of this, the little prince had no clue of what suffering lied just beyond the large walls he had no permission to go near.
It's been a while 20 years since the plague began and started to spread. Luckily it hasn't gotten out of Balor yet, but people now fear that the plague will eventually leak out of their small kingdom and affect others. On the 21st year of the plague's start, there became the recognizing of four special people; a simple low-life thief, a young guard in the line of duty, the wealthy daughter who cries over the poor, and the prince who found out the truth of his future kingdom the hard way.
This is the story of four young adults who eventually come together on, at first, bad terms with each other until they realize how many similarities they share. That is when their plan developed to overthrow the king was put into action. They called it Retribution.

Rules
1 - Please Reserve ; Reservations are going to be taken in the OOC or by PMs! Unfortunately, I won't be accepting anything other than that such as someone just randomly submitting a character sheet. Even if it's well done, I'm afraid I'll just have to ignore it! (´;д;`)
2 – Only lasts 42 hours ; Yup, only two days for you to get a character in, unless you ask for more time. I’ll give you more, but if you don’t say anything, your name will be taken off the character and free for anyone else to take. Just like that! (´A`。)
3 – Literacy ; Hey, I don’t really care about this rule very much, but that doesn’t mean you should try typing in another language to us! Seriously, try to write decent English, yeah? Oh, and also that means at least 7+ sentences per post. You can go under a few times, but you know the saying, three strikes and you’re out!
((((;゜Д゜)))
4 – Romance, Gore, Etc ; Romance is encouraged, Gore can be included, Drama is encouraged, Swearing is allowed [color=red]only in character, but all has to be PG-13 or slightly R rated. I’m sure we all know what that means. ┐(‘~`;)┌
5 – Anime ; You weren’t expecting this were you? Maybe you were. I don’t know. But yeah. Use anime pictures please? And stick to using the same character. It doesn’t matter how many pictures as long as there is one. (ノ-ω-)ノ
6 – Sticking To Story ; I made this story, I made the four main characters, so try your best to stick with their story and the whole rp in general! If you do, I’ll love you. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
7 – Effort ; School’s started (sucks, I know) but try your hardest to do a nice job on your character, posts, and try to post at least twice or three times a week, please? (✌゚∀゚)
8 – Don’t Be A Butt ; Exactly as its put. Don’t be a butt. Don’t fight in OOC, seriously, just don’t. It makes me feel sad. You don’t want me sad. (;へ:)
9 – Creativity ; Make your characters different from others! Sure, a few things in common are alright, but what I don’t want to see is a super nice character and another super nice character, or a rebel and another rebel. ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
10 – Random Words ; I want the rules to be ten because that’s a nice number. Did you like my faces? If you did, answer me in the OOC so I know you read over my rules, yeah? (;゙°´ω°´)

Retribution
Most recent OOC posts in Retribution
Re: Retribution
Anyways, I'm not really good with numbers, so I think I may leave the numbers up to you guys, if that's alright. A few more things to notify about the Kingdom is that since the plague started, the king wouldn't let anyone in or out of the place, and there are less healthy/rich people than poor. Ehh... I'm sure there's more I was going to note about it... but I forgot \(@;v;@)/

Re: Retribution
If the city was, let's say, 10,000-50,000 and the smaller cities/rural towns then the plague would be able to easily spread due to trade amongst the people and slowly get to the city over the course of twenty years. Then it would also make sense for the gravity of the situation because of how many people are at stake. After all, 150,000 dead seems a lot more dramatic than 150.

Re: Retribution
And century time....? Yeah, I'd probably stick with somewhere around the 14th century. There should be use of the guns, but it'd be good to also still have the bows and swords in action also. ლ(╹◡╹ლ)
Re: Retribution
Second is the time frame. What century time frame would this be in? 14th century is the best in my opinion because it has guns and newer technology but crossbows/swords are still used more widely for the next three centuries.
Reason I ask is I'm determining how many rebels there would be.
Re: Retribution
@All
Oh yes, and I just got PMed by a certain someone who will also be joining our rp, Roku Mushabuki, who has also talked to me about the storyline. There will be something added in as well which would be a resistance group, and Roku will be playing the leader.
That's all I'd like to say! Look forward to the next characters and rping afterwards!
Re: Retribution
Re: Retribution
Oho! Be sure to ask anything else if you need more clarification! I'll answer anything! ヽ(*・ω・)ノ
@Shadow
Hey, hey, take your time now (^v^) We're still waiting for three more people to make their characters, so you can go slow.
@All
Oh yes, and this rp may proceed a little slowly, both with posting and characters because of the time of the year it is. Especially for me since I'll be traveling to the snow soon and school work may get the best of me! ヽ(;▽;)ノ
Re: Retribution
Re: Retribution
Re: Retribution
I'll be adding both your characters to the list, but I have one thing to ask of the two of you; a layout.
On the info page there is the Thief, Guard, Daughter, and Prince, and I made them all related in some manner. Those were the original four layouts, so to add two more characters, I'll also need two more layouts. I would really appreciate it if both of you could make your own for your character as long as it doesn't resemble too much to the first four. (ᅌᴗᅌ* )
Of course, I'll be willing to help you if you need help thinking, but I had some struggle thinking of the first four so I think it may be best for you two to make your own if possible ヽ(`◇´)/
Re: Retribution
Oh, and I REALLY like your faces ^( '-' )^
Re: Retribution
Re: Retribution
Sadly, Im about to head off for school, so your names won't be on there for a few hours until I get back, but just know that those are your roles!
*Other characters may be added to the list since all four are filled out if anyone else is interested!
Re: Retribution
The faces were rather... Interesting.
