NEVERENDING WAR (Medieval Fantasy RP Open and Accepting)

[Leviathan~]

NEVER ENDING WAR

The world is burning….

The world is screaming….

The world begs for death…

Still the war persists…

An evil being known as The Everlasting came to Earth with the intention of starting a never-ending war. To do this, he killed off all the world's leaders, and once the world dipped into chaos he handed out the War Pieces, weapons that provide both a blessing of power, and a curse of restraint, to children too young to currently wield them around the world.
You, one of the children given the gift of War, are older now, thrown headfirst into a world where no one is to be trusted and anyone could take your life should they see the task worth their time. The Everlasting gives you “games”. Tasks and challenges that you may choose to fulfill, with the possibility of reward, or decline, with the assurance of punishment. How will you fight? Will you entertain the Everlasting and play his game of endless bloodshed? Or will you fight against his tyranny in hopes of creating a world of peace and balance like the world of the past? The choice is yours, but despite that choice, you’re going to have to fight for your life.

Types of War Pieces:
-Weapon: A weapon war piece is any sort of weapon or weapon set. Weapons can have special abilities apart from being weapons, but the weapon’s power must center around the weapon, not the power. For example, you can’t have an axe that lets you shoot fireballs from your hands. You can, however, have an axe that launches fireballs with each swing. The power must be CONNECTED to the war piece. NOTE: A weapon piece will become lifeless if removed from the user’s possession. It cannot be used, activated, or even used as a blunt force instrument. When a weapon piece is removed from its user, consider it a large, useless featherweight. This means weapon pieces cannot be thrown or released from the body of the user as a method of attack.

-Armor: An armor war piece is either a piece of armor, some form of defensive equipment, or an entire suit of armor. The armor’s abilities can either enhance the user of the armor or provide them with some form of ability such as, yes, shooting fireballs. Armor abilities should be all in all slightly weaker than weapon abilities, as they are meant to enhance the person’s natural fighting, not act as the primary source of combat potential. It can also be noted that armor war pieces will be much more durable and have much more defensive capacity than regular armor. NOTE: Armor users’ armor pieces cannot be removed. If the armor is a singular piece of equipment, that piece cannot be removed from the users body, even by force. If the user has a full suit of armor for his/her piece, some piece of the armor must stay throughout, while the rest can be summoned and dismissed accordingly.

Sentinel: Sentinel war pieces are weapons that act on their own. These can include automatons, guardians, beasts, or soldiers. Note that sentinels are NOT LIVING BEINGS. They have a lifeforce, but they do not have a voice, or a sentient personality. They aren’t second characters, they are meant to act as weapons primarily. If your character has a sentinel war piece, they are still allowed to fight on their own, however they cannot possess any form of enhancement in their own combat abilities. It could be said that those who use sentinel war pieces are somewhat weaker than both weapon and armor users in terms of personal ability. Sentinel users are meant to primarily rely on their sentinels for combat. NOTE: Sentinels must have some form of storage container, such as a box, a casket, a jar (say if you have a gooey sentinel) or some other form of containment unit. The sentinel doesn’t have to be able to fit in the container at full size, but you have to be able to keep the sentinel inside some form of container.

Rules:
-1 War Piece per character. The Everlasting doesn’t pick favorites

-Each war piece must have both a good blessing AND a good curse. If the curse isn’t really that bad, it won’t be accepted.

-Any and all mods can manipulate enemies and fiends created by the Everlasting to act as NPC antagonists. Only I, Leviathan~, the admin, however, can control The Everlasting.

-If you would like a specific kind of game from the Everlasting, PM me, and I’ll see if we can make it work.

-Keep the power levels within reason, no power play or godmodding

-Keep the fight to the rp, not the OOC. If you have a dispute with another rper, either discuss it privately or deal with it in the world of the rp.

-This is a semi-para rp. Please have at least 3 lines per post. (5 decent sized sentences)

-Feel free to make characters that do not have War Pieces themselves, but note that those characters cannot be as powerful or more powerful than those who possess War Pieces.

-Curses must be able to actually impair you in battle. Curses are designed to balance out rpers on the battlefield should they decide to fight each other. A curse can do other things, but it has to somehow physically impair your fighting ability or skill.

-This rp is set in a neo-medieval time period, similar to that of FMA. Guns exist, but they aren't prevalent, and there aren't many if any fully automatic firearms Cars are primitive and new to society, and most architecture is still pretty much medieval in nature, apart from some major cities.. Just FYI.

-I love backstory. If there is something you’d like to add to this story’s lore or background such as an ancient city or historical figure, please talk about it in rp or PM me about it, I’d love to develop the background of the story.

-Of course, have a blast and make this rp one to remember!

[Leviathan~]

User: Leviathan~

Name: Torun Cloudborn

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Appearance: Torun stands at 6,1, with mid length raven’s black hair thrown to the side by the constant wind he seems to be in. He’s slim but well built, and somewhat pale with jade green eyes. Torun wears a simple armor and clothing combination. He has a gray tunic with orange symbols painted on the sleeves, plated gloves, simple roughspun pants, plated boots, and a fur-lined spiked pauldron on his right shoulder. He also has a paint-decorated chestplate that goes over his tunic, and a simple helmet with a short fur crest on the top and an eye slit in the shape of the Symbol of Adaptation from an ancient philosophy book, which is 4 lines. 3 lines, the one in the middle longer than the other two, and then a large line drawn through the middle of those three lines, which is the eye slit itself. (May provide picture later)

War Piece: Torun’s War Piece, known as Lockbreaker, is a sleek, double edged sword with two knife-like protrusions on each side of the handguard slanting inward, their one-sided blades pointed outwards. The sword’s scabbard is metal and bulky, with various inscriptions and markings, and there is a lock that holds the blade in place when it is sheathed. On the pommel of the sword is a singular, spherical orange gem with a spike piercing through it, creating a ring like effect with the gem.

Blessing: When Lockbreaker is drawn, it’s immense power is released, giving it the force and speed of a weapon that surpasses the bounds of reality. With each slash, a wave of orange power is released, giving the sword a range slightly further than the blade itself. The sword’s chaotic energy is also harmful to those who are close to it, so standing near the blade could leave you with cuts and scratches.

Curse: Lockbreaker’s power is all or nothing. When sheathed the weapon is useless, but when unsheathed all of its might is unleashed, and it cannot be restrained. This makes sparring impossible, but furthermore, as the user of the weapon is exposed to Lockbreaker’s chaotic power, it will begin to injure the user, and if the user is exposed to the sword’s power for too long, the sword will begin to attack both the opponent and the user, forcing the user to wield the blade in moderation, if they value their life.

History: When Torun was given his War Piece, his family became aware of the awful power that was given to him and hid the blade away, keeping him from knowing about the one thing that was bound to his soul in this world. While he was being raised, he was taught to fight with a sword, but he never realized that the sword he would be wielding was a piece of War until the Everlasting came to his home on his 16th birthday, and promptly killed his family and destroyed his home. The Everlasting had not been pleased with Torun’s distance from his foul weapon, and using the rage of the young man, force him to draw Lockbreaker, unleashing its might and making him aware of what he was truly capable of. The Everlasting left him, and for the past 3 years he’s been cutting down any who raise a weapon against the defenseless without prejudice.

Personality: Torun is a normally very nice guy, especially with the kind or innocent, but the moment someone shows unnecessary aggression or rudeness he becomes extremely cold and brusque. He loves jokes and making friends, but has no tolerance for those who cannot show kindness.

User: Leviathan~

Name: Ixion Westwing

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: Ixion is a meager 5,7. He’s somewhat tan with dark hair thrown up in a rear-facing fohawk of sorts. He’s not very impressive in stature but he’s very fit for his appearance. He has dark blue eyes that somehow manage to contrast enough with his pupil to be somewhat striking. He wears a dark red waist coat and simple black pants, and carries a simple dark-cherry recurve bow and quiver. He also has a ruby bead necklace, which he’s very fond of.

War Piece: Ixion’s War Piece, Mikael, is a sentinel. Mikael is a man made entirely of marble, somewhat bland and unsculpted in his original form. He has eyes in the form of indents in his blank face, which glow a faint white, but apart from that he’s very blank in appearance. Mikael is contained in a large stone casket, with the Adaptation Symbol carved onto the lid.

Blessing: Mikael can manipulate his body to serve any necessary purpose in combat. He can turn his arms into weapons, develop parts of his body more than others, create small walls or barriers, his body is like a large pile of moldable marble clay.

Curse: Using Mikael causes Ixion’s senses to bond with Mikael’s, meaning while the two can communicate through telepathic signals, both can only see. So, when using Mikael, Ixion doesn’t have access to his other 4 senses.

History: Ixion was already an orphan before he was give his War Piece. The orphanage only knew his last name because the woman who was rumored to have abandoned her child admitted it in a nervous breakdown and killed herself. However, when he was given Mikael, he was abandoned by the orphanage, as they feared Mikael would come in the night and kill them. Instead, Mikael acted as Ixion’s guardian, and throughout most of his life the sentinel was always out of his casket. In fact through most of Ixion’s childhood Mikael had to carry his own casket around, as Ixion himself couldn’t do it. The two learned to survive through cooperation, as Ixion grew older he took up archery, and became a skilled shot within a few months of taking up the art. By the time he was seventeen, both he and Mikael had learned to survive perfectly, and were well fed and sheltered almost all the time, with little error or incident. However, do to Ixion’s curse, and having had Mikael with him most of his life, he almost never spoke, and forgot a good deal of the little language he did know. Once he was 16 he started visiting inhabited locations, since he could carry Mikael in his casket. There he learned to speak again, but he’s still very rusty.

Personality: Ixion takes after Mikael in that he is a very passive, quiet individual who doesn’t really get involved in other people’s affairs unless he is dragged into them or he feels he could benefit by getting involved. While he is quiet, he’s not antisocial, and will converse with anyone who bothers to talk to him.

Other: Third character to arrive soon

((Bump please:D))

[Furenzied]

User: Furenzied

Name: Lance Horatius

Age: 36

Gender: Male

Appearance: a thin but muscular man that seems to be in his mid twenties. He wears a long red coat and a wide brimmed hat. Usually seen with a slung great sword across his back. He wears leather boots and some simple dark pants. He wears a simple necklace with the symbol of his family, a lion fighting other creatures. He often keeps his right arm in a sling when not in battle to not intimidate others around his travels. He also carries around a backpack full of things. He has blond hair and brown eyes, tan but not darkly so.

War Piece: Asura's Arm, a large but light gauntlet that covers everything up to the shoulder, with large thin but flexible metal claws on the end and a hole in the palm that doesn't lead to skin but another metal plate. It's blood red and white in color. Sports a series of small spikes that run along the veins of the arm. It fits his form rather well, moving along naturally like a second skin made of metal, flexing and bending as he does.

Blessing: Enhances streingth of the user while reducing or eleminating the effects of aging. While it doesn't make him actually faster it does enhance reaction times. The more blood, the better these boosts are. If enough is present it will slowly heal him as well.

Curse: bound by blood, it has melded to his skin and nothing short of removing the arm can separate it from him while he lives. It does go as far as to run off blood itself, turning whiter and lighter in color until it has to replenish itself from the weilder or some other source. Usually requiring a few cups every couple of days of use but is lenient enough to use any blood, not just human. Only works for those who share his bloodline and only naturally separates on death. The draining weakens him greatly for a good number of hours.

History: the gauntlet was given to him as what seemed to be a gift to Lance among a family of warriors, who see it as simply a test of your skill as a lifetime of fighting. He took upbeing a gladiator in a distant land as his family was few at this point and has made a living there. When challengers were scarese he hunted to get what he needed from them as well as some food. Sometimes sought out to fight in battles as he is also a mercenary. When not fighting, hunting, or drinking in moderation, he trains all the timeto boost his natural skill. He lives by many mantras.

Personality: a good man who loves food, fighting, and good friends. He has a thirst for battle and is good at it, often being somewhat of a showboat about it to thrill the crowd, avoiding near hits and blocking as best he can, exaggerating injuries as he has a decent tolerance for pain and all for the crowd. He rarely gos all out because he believes fury in battle is a weakness. Despite that he can be rather eccentric about some topics, such as the best type of weapons in certain situations and who makes the best brew around.

Other: I can't really think of much at the moment. But...maybe the everlasting could be able to assume a number of smaller and slightly weaker forms to move around giving his gifts.





I'm sincerely sorry about spelling errors...I can't usually tell.

[Leviathan~]

((Okay to clarify a few things, is your War Piece a gauntlet or some sort of prosthetic arm? Also, I can't tell if you meant for him to be 26 or 26 because the description says mid twenties but the age says 36. Also you'll have to change your history. If you read the plot a little more (I'm not mad just saying) you'd see that War Pieces are weapons that The Everlasting bestowed to a large group of people when they were young children or infants, so the Asura's arm couldn't be a family heirloom. So I'll still accept you, but just go back through your form and clear those things up for me please))

[Leviathan~]

((bump please))

[Furenzied]

His age thing is because of the gauntlet lessening the effects of aging. So while he is 36 or so he appears in his mid 20's. I'll try to explain the rest in the form.

[Leviathan~]

((Still confused but okay, that works. Accepted, I'll throw you up on the roster. We'll start when we get 2 more people, maybe just 1.))

[SakiWolf]

"Hey. So, uh. I'll start with the basics I guess."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, my name's Fuyuki Koizumi. A little foreign I'm aware. I am a male at the age of seventeen years. Which may not seem like much, but I guess you could say I've seen things that gave my mentality a small boost."

As you can see, I'm pretty dull to look at. Not much special. My hair is a bleak and dreary black almost a soggy grey. I have strangely pale skin, not that the weather improves it any. My eyes, now they are a little strange. Somehow I've managed with a form of hetrochromia and it's caused my iris' to morph from a gold to aqua. My frame is lanky and I'm only average height, if not a tad underweight for it."

"As for my personality, I'd say that I am a rather dull person. I speak quietly and tend to hang out of place like a blown out candle amongst a room of lit ones. I'm pretty passive which can sometimes come across as apathy. But I do genuinely care on most occasions. I'm just not sure on how to show and convey emotions very well."

"My back story is nothing special. I was raised by my Father who, as he did, brought me up. Maybe in a less than pleasant environment. He was an alcoholic after all and often did bring home both strange women and men despite my being there. I left the house at fifteen and never returned. Nor do I plan to. So for as I am now, I currently have a small apartment in a small but bustling town. It's pleasant. Quiet. But bearable."

"Onto my War Piece. Well, as for the item that is always on my person, it would be a small, rather dingy looking, metal lighter. The casing is worn and smudged, bleak and dull. It has streaks of ash and a faded engraving of what I believe says "When she awoke. The World was on fire" Which is pretty relative to what it contains I suppose."
"You see, I seem to be in the possession of what some may deem a 'fire nymph'. And her name is Kaji. She's a little feisty but has reasonably good intentions despite her demeanour. She can only appear in her full from of flames if the lighter is opened, however when closed she can sometimes muster up enough energy to form as a wisp of smoke from within the lighter, she is unable to speak in this state but can still be plenty talkative in a more physical sense."

"The Blessing of her, is much of what you might guess. You see she's very good with fire and all things in a sense of controlling it. Within limits. She may not be particularly strong. But she can control the wave at which it flows and if there is smoke in the air then she can quickly conjure up small bullets of flames. She is restricted to the confines of the lighter and is only very petite in size. But definitely has a big personality to make up for it."

"The Curse of which I am forced upon is that at the expense of allowing her to appear, and not as a wisp as she regularly seems to appear as, my eyesight deteriorates. Which means I do end up wearing glasses. Rarely at the moment, but it will most likely become more of a regular occurrence. Which is why I don't allow her to form a flame unless the situation direly calls for it."
