Introduction
Every night of my life, a man comes to my window wearing a black cloak. I ask him where he comes from, but there's no response. He knows things that he shouldn't; I know that much. He knows my life, he knows every waking moment, and he's seen it from my own eyes. He only hands me a ticket that glows in the moonlight. I ask him what it's for, but he waves his cape and leaves.
I don't know why he comes, he just does. I can't tell why he decides to visit me, either, I'm terrified out of my mind every time I see him, it's as if he knows how to exploit me in every shape, way, form, and fashion.
The ticket is different every time. It always looks torn and ripped off lazily, as if someone'd decided to rush with sending it out, and maybe they had. Placing them together, they read a complete sentence.
"Can you visit that place in the sky, darling?"
"This encounter has happened to children 12-18 all over the world since, and they've all come out feeling strange. The rumored 'place in the sky' is said to be a place called 'Athenia', named after the Greek city, Athens, which is, in turn, named after the Greek goddess Athena. No one is quite sure what happens in Athenia, only that this is a periodic event that happens every five years, with varying children all going after this invitation, and none coming back. More or less, the encounter is a sign of death, especially if the Cloaked Man speaks to you.
And now, I believe, it's the time for the next group of children to go into Athenia. No one is quite sure what happens up there; only speculation -- a tournament, wherein which the winner becomes a new god, while, at the same time, learning from masters at Athenia.
There can be only one, it's presumed, and this one will have to take his or her position with a sense of pride.
Pray for your souls, children.
Bless you, and godspeed."

Can you reach that place in the sky, darling?
This is a new concept I came up with inspired by 'Mirai Nikki/Future Diary', and some other RPs I've been in. It's a test run, sure, but I think this could reach a interesting crowd if we do it right. :) Here we go, bio sheet~
- Code: Select all
[center]INSERT NAME HERE
[img]PICTURE HERE PLEASE[/img]
"INSERT A QUOTE HERE"
INSERT THE COUNTRY/NATION THEY REPRESENT HERE[/center]
Age (they must be 12-18):
Appearance (in description, please):
Personality (Try to not make it a list -- try to make it well-defined and well-put.):
History (Try to make it as long as possible. I won't take short 'This is Mika she is cute and 15. She lived her life in the slums. She joined the tournament after getting a letter' -- that's shallow and I need more info than that, please.):
Contestant Title (Think of it as your 'alter-ego'. We're basing a lot on wrestling terms within this RP, so consider it your 'face' or 'heel' identity. Try to make it clever and catchy but not too cheesy.):
Dream (They had to sacrifice one of their dreams in order to reach Athenia in the first place. What is it? Do you believe they'll want it back if they win? Does it make them different now that they lack this dream?):
Now, bold your character's answers to these questions.
What do you value the most? Compassion/Bravery/Strength/Family
You see two ropes. One has the love of your life on it. One has your best friend on it, and both are screaming for your help. Who do you save? Love/Friend/Both of them, I'm just that good/Neither of them, I'm too powerless
You are dead, but you are given a choice of what you wish to reincarnate into next. What do you pick? A bear, protective but kind/A fly, I'll annoy the guy who killed me, even for a bit/A dog, I'd like to trust someone truly like they do/A human again, no point in saying otherwise
Pick a color. Pink/Purple/Grey/White
Now, pick a weapon. Axe/Spear/Sword/Shuriken
Finally, pick a name. Joan of Arc/Benjamin Franklin/Lu Bu/Sacajawea
Finished. Please wait until you are approved!
