Introduction
Strong Malik, who screams far too much expects far more out of his subordinates than they can give.
Magical Luna, who's head is in the clouds and who giggles like a sherry addict.
Each of them will have recruited you into a game that they have dressed up as a battle for the planet earth. You must choose your side, Luna or Malik. Each one of them will give you the power of names, you much choose a title that will reflect your abilities on the battlefield. For instance the Soldier of Life would have a domain over battle wounds. However, the Thief of Life may have a domain over healing as well, but his healing will require that he takes life from his enemies.
Whose side will you choose?
Welcome, moon child. My name is Luna, and I am the Goddess of the Moon. It is perhaps more accurate to say that the Moon is my mother, and that I tend to ignore her phone calls because all she does is critique my clothes and ask me whether or not I have a boyfriend yet. But that is another story for another rainy day, fair one.
Today, we talk about you!
I have to come to visit you for two reasons today, moon child. First, you are special. You are chosen. I was looking down from a crater on the moon when I saw you, standing alone on some street corner, dewdrops in your hair. Or perhaps it was dirty water from a splashed puddle. I am not sure. Regardless, I knew you were special. Perhaps I knew because I am special. I am not sure. I chose you, moon child, because currently we face the darkest and gravest threat that this universe has ever known β
There is a dark God named Malik who conspires gainst your planet, moon child. He will soon send his forces of darkness to destroy every drop of life on your dear little planet. But do not fret, fair one! I chose you, and I gave you special powers to combat Earthβs darkest hour. You will be joined by four other chosen ones, and together you will fight against his wicked minions.
What powers did I give you? Oh, sweet thing, a better question is β what powers did you give yourself? For I gave you the power of a name, and nothing else. For example, if you were to pick the name of Apostle of Shadows, perhaps your power would involve manipulating shadows to cloak secrets and stab miscreants. If you were the Knight of Flowers, perhaps you would be able to make many plants grow all at once. But you must follow that structure β you must be a blank of blank! Do you understand what I mean? I am not always sure that people understand what I mean, perhaps because I speak too clearly.
Once you have chosen your powers, then we shall ride out together on my space ship to confront the demon where it lurks. We must meet the villain on the field first, before he reaches your dear little planet. Once victory is ours, you will be heroes on your home world β you will be the ones to lead your planet into a moon-soaked Renaissance!
I depend on you, child of the moon. I depend on you.
Hello contestants, I am Malik. Look around you, do you see these gleaming alabaster walls, these perfect defences from the cold, harsh, titillating space that I have crafted from the bones of the endangered space whale? I brought you to this place for a reason. Not because you are the best of the best. You are, in fact, not even close. That is why I have chosen you, I plan on raising you up beyond mortal human expectations. I shall christen you my WARRIORS AGAINST LUNA. Luna, that evil demon from the dark side of the universe that never called me back after our third date. The wench said I was being clingy. CLINGY, I, LORD MALIK OF THE DESERT SANDS?! I'm not clingy! I'm completely the opposite of clingy! I'm so fucking unclingy I'm made of Teflon!
I'm over that though.
That is not the reason I called you here, my brave WARRIORS, I called you here because I saw the strength inside of you, I saw the power that could be tapped in the pure raw potential that is your souls. You shall be an army. Not my army, not anyone's army, but you shall be an army for the Earth. FOR EVEN AS WE SPEAK, there is a heinous being soaring about the cosmos and recruiting for the same reasons as I am. She has taken these poor souls and lied to them, told them stories about my prodigious strength and my rippling muscles in dark context. She has made me out to be a monster to those poor folk, and has set them against me.
This is why I have chosen you, my great WARRIORS, to fight against this heinous beast! You may ask how you are to fight a being almost my equal in strength? You may ask the sort of strength you are to be given? Do you wish to know the gleaming powers I shall bestow upon you? I give you the power of names. I give you a buffet of titles to choose from. Anything your heart desires.
For you are the Duke of hearts, destroying team morale and sowing dissent, you are the Page of Dreams, bringing illusory versions of your foes nightmares to keep them from encroaching upon your territory. YOU get to be the Thief of Wonder, draining the moral of your foes until they have no strength left to raise a sword, or the Rifleman of Doom, knowing that your bullet will always find its mark. Your name is what gives you strength. The title before it is what gives you a connection. Will you take your positions as the protectors of Earth?
Will you fight against the inevitable scourge of Luna and her deluded followers? You shall be made to sleep in the same quarters as them in between battles, but I know that your conviction will be strong, and that you will not be swayed by their BLASPHEMOUS LIES. You may even cause them to defect. You may bring new strength of will to our army, I am counting on you. Now as they say in the language of the Tronlaunm'heei PopcjimkcJHC DImiCMdl'MICi ICDDMCILMCDMIDCM!

1. Follow the site guidelines.
2. Don't let the RP go a week without a new post.
3. Most modern day browsers have this thing called Spellcheck. If you don't use it I and my associate will beat you until you cry blood.
4. The majority of people are rather confused when it comes to the topic of "Aspects" So please read over my and my co-GM's character sheets in order to get a proper grasp of them. In fact, read over every character sheet just to polite.
5. Let's eat grandpa. Let's eat, grandpa. Grammar saves lives.
6. Godmodding is not a good thing. One hit kills are not good. This is not a competition to see which character can be the most awesome. This is a competition to see which team can be the most awesome.
7. Add the word Theurgist at the top of your character sheet to show that you read the rules
8. Try to have fun, just not at the expense of others.

Do we have a thread in Roleplayers Wanted? If not, I can run over and make one...
Shanatos, I would not be at all surprised if you were just spamming the thread. ;) It's not like you've ever done that before...
Hey, I've only ever posted in one OOC thread for an RP I wasn't involved in. :P
