Alright. Lie detection is good. Sorry for that, just that mind-reading is usually very hard to pull off well in an RPG without it making it godmoddy.

Adding to this... You're accepted. Welcome to the RPG

[fusionman]

Hooray Fallen's in too.

Now just give us a bit as me and her decide how to enter...unless she already did so.

[EldritchMermaid]

She hasn't entered yet, so...

[Psyga315]

Would giving you the current situation help matters?

[fusionman]

Yeah that probably would be a great amount of help for us.

However I also am busy trying to get summer reading done in time.

[Psyga315]

Alright.

The story so far: Jack Applebuck (a human AU!Applejack) and the town of AAAAAAAAAAAppaloosa! recruit the Brotherhood to get Vyce Frontiers off their back (pretty much, "pay us or have your town demolished by our big ass cannons"), and so the Brotherhood respond by having their cannons (the TSAB Mages) and blast the fortress from like... a mile away.

Then one of the Big Bads, the Great Leader of Dai-Shocker, goes to one of the people of Vyce Frontiers and offers their Zakus. Any moment now, the TSAB mages and the Zakus will fight, with Lord Vyce piloting a Spider Mech with a baby head (think that spider toy from Toy Story... but bigger and shoots macaroons. Don't ask, it was from a Japanese Anime...).

All while Dunbar is getting a Kaizo Ningen operation (aka, he's becoming a cyborg). There's some other stuff, but if you're diving into the main plot, that's all you need to know atm.

[kalloonwhite]

• Name: Kalloon.
  
• Age: 15.
  
• Sex: Male.
  
• Appearance: Average, with fluffy brown hair and big blue eyes.
  
• Chosen Power/Tech: Shard of Naoto Shirogane from Persona 4: Arena, including her as a voice-in-head, her Persona and revolver skills. Her moves in the game.
  
• Faction: Brotherhood, albeit after a bit of wandering and finding out who is who on his own.
  
• World of Origin: The World of Lilim
  
• Personality: Kalloon suffers from a severe inability to speak his mind. As such, he's rather quiet, and shy. If you can open him up though, you'll reveal his sunny personality and endless talking capabilities. Naoto tends to speak his mind for him, otherwise.
  
• Bio: Being a quiet boy, Kalloon was just trying to get along in life before encountering the shard and getting dragged into the multiverse.
  

I hope this is okay, Danny helped me with it...

[Psyga315]

Hm... Alrighty, accepted. The heroes are in the saloon getting ready to go, though you could also appear in either Gotham or Amestris ahead of time...

[kalloonwhite]

I've decided on Amestris! That is my choice, so I hope I don't regret it.

[Psyga315]

Alright. The basic first post is your character receiving the shard's power, then be transported to where the heroes are, that or Amestris (though that involves some planning with Strat, so if you wish to jump in, you should probably choose the former).

[Addy]

The idea was that Naoto in his head would insist on investigating the situation on their own instead of just hopping in with somebody right off the bat.

If he pops into Linkara world right now, he'd have to hop on the hurriedly leaving Brotherhood train, with no opportunities for that investigation.

So the best bet for that mini-arc introduction would be indeed appearing in one of the worlds we are going to - and the preference is set on Amestris.
So yeah, Kalloon, I think it's best to wait a bit instead of hopping right in.

[stratofarius]

Yeah, Kalloon can appear in Amestris, although before the group goes there... needs an introductory post, though.

[megamagikarp]

*Descends into the underworld*

• Name:Magi
  
• Age:17
  
• Sex:Male
  
• Appearance: Quite tall androgynous youth with shoulder-length blond hair. Always wears a necklace with a fish charm.
  
• Chosen Power/Tech: Kirby, mostly modelled from Smash Bros. He still can copy abilities from others, Instead of eating them, though, he just touches them for a few moments. He can only keep them temporarily though. He does have some powers he always have, which are sword (self explanitory), hammer (self explanitory), fighter and backdrop (hand to hand combat) and stone (turning himself into a stone. Impossible to hurt, but moves at a snail's pace.)
  
• Faction: Brotherhood
  
• World of Origin: The World of Lilim
  
• Personality: Easily distracted. Talkative at times. Has a hard time understanding other people's emotions.
  
• Bio: Seems to be normal on the surface, but secretly worships a cult devoted to fish. Outside of that, they lived a normal life until finding one of the crystals.

Don't kill me. DX I tried.

[Psyga315]

Nah. I won't kill you. You're accepted.

[megamagikarp]

Yay! ^.^ I promise I won't burn too much stuff.

But anyway, I really am supposed to be in bed right about now. >.> I shall actually, you know, join the RP itself tomorrow.

[biomechtraveler]

Sign up:

Ganamade and Icarus

Age: Teenagers, they look quite young though their ages are hard to pin down.

Gender: Ganamade is the Male and Icarus is the Female.

Appearance: Hopefully Troy will get a picture up for me- they look like twins, the boy dresses in black and the girl dresses in white.

Chosen ability:

They have the Power of Coyote Starrk and Lilynette, the Primera Espada:

Sonido( Flash Step)

Cero (Doom Blast)

Gran Rey Cero (Hollow King's Lightning)

Cero Metralleta (Doom Blast Machine gun)

They have access to these only in released state, normally they just stick to swinging their swords.

Gemini

This is the released state of Ganamade and Icarus, a tall figure of silent menace and carries two strange looking pistols- the air pressure goes haywire withing a metre radius of him.

Faction: They have no faction, at least not yet, they might join one later in the game.

World of Origin: Lilim

Personality: Well....I have yet to really work this out, Icarus is the cheerful one and Ganamde is the one who calls the punches.

Hope this does the trick- all amendments and suggestions welcome.

[Addy]

>Faction: They have no faction, at least not yet, they might join one later in the game.

Well which one would you want them to join?

[Psyga315]

Sorry I didn't notice until now. However, your bio is a little barebones. Flesh it out a bit (give backstory, personality, etc) and I'll see if I can accept it.

[troydenite]

Ganymede. Ganymede.

[biomechtraveler]

eheheh...this is what happens when a good friend pressures you into it.

I'm having real trouble giving them backstory, I'll do a different post for backstory.

About this faction thing, they are Loners- they have no friends and any they had had been killed earlier- they will join the faction of the first person they make friends with.

You see, I don't know much backstory to this whole thing- something about Decade and angst...Troy has been less than helpful so would anyone more knowledgeable enlighten me about way there are persons of mass destruction traveling through the multiverse with the power of friendship?

[troydenite]

Okay. So...

In the beginning, there was the Multiverse. And there were a bunch of folks called the Red Pirates who decided to go on a quest in search of the source of every power in the Multiverse. Their leader was an alternate-universe Captain Marvelous, and they discovered that certain powers could be extracted from their original bearers and turned into solid crystalline energy slivers known as Shards. When said Shards were stabbed into a sentient being, it would confer all that power onto it. And so, for a while, things were fine and dandy - however, as always, Decade soon found a way to ruin things. (ONOREEEEE!) Heading an evil multiversal organisation known as Dai-Shocker, he engaged the Red Pirates in a prolonged war, finally destroying Marvelous in a pitched battle above the space surrounding our own world - the World of Lilim, in what we designate as April, 2012 AD.

With the Gokai Galleon destroyed, all the shards within it tumbled to Earth, impaling most of the starting player characters in various body parts. The heroes were then recruited into the remains of the Red Pirate organisation, which deathpigeon's character took over and renamed the Imperium, and the antiheroes/villainous characters were recruited by Dai-Shocker. Lots and lots and lots of hijinks ensued.

Basically, as things stand, the Imperium was renamed the Brotherhood after the Emperor left, and is now led by Strat's character, taken over by the canon Roy Mustang. A bunch of chaotic people entered, named the Pantheon of the Damned informally - the main personage in that being Majora, who is now known as Masjora due to absorbing a bunch of stuff. Decade was revealed to be possessed by his evil side, known as Daishuryou, which is now a separate body. A couple of other characters created their own faction, known as Hades Party because they party in Hell. Or something, I'm not entirely clear on all this, which is my fault entirely.

The current two worlds are Fullmetal Alchemist's World and Batman's World.

And... yeah. I think that's the basics. Feel free to correct my mistakes, guys.

[Psyga315]

>his evil side, known as Daishuryou

Actually, it's the Daishuryou from the original Kamen Rider series. It's confusing, but the backstory I had in my head was that Ash was Lost Ankh from an alternate universe that succeeded in absorbing Ankh, and after that, the events of Let's Go Kamen Rider happened, with Ash betraying the other Greeeds and taking in their Core Medals, then making a deal with Daishuryou to give him immortality in the form of a Core Medal, and thus the Shocker Medal was born. They then went to Hibiki's World where they implant the Medal into Tsukasa.

I thought we re-retconned that back to February after said retcon stopped being necessary.

[Psyga315]

It's mindscrewy.

[fusionman]

...But my stuff was in JULY. Canonically months after the battle but...still.

[Falkon]

Lilim moves at real world time, I believe.

[EldritchMermaid]

We started off with everything starting in February because that's when the RP started. I know I certainly assumed this when I wrote my first sheet. Then [REDACTED] went and made a deliberate and specific reference to something that was broadcast after his character left Earth and thus his character could not have known about (For reference, it was Twilight and Cadence's Secret Handshake from "A Canterlot Wedding"). When he was called on this and told it was metagaming, he made a big fuss and refused to take it down again. As a result we had to retcon everything to start after said program was broadcast, simply so he could keep one line in the game.

[Psyga315]

Perhaps he watched it then left earth?

[EldritchMermaid]

I'm pretty sure it aired a long time after his character first appeared.

[Psyga315]

Not really. I remember clearly that the finale aired during the MLP arc, where Mia joined the party because she was inspired (sort of) by Cadance and the Windigoes.
