Please PM anyone who you think would like to play so I can fill up the player limit. I am looking for two Co-GM’s to help with suggestions, etc. Co-GM’s will be able to play special characters alongside their normal one, something the normal players cannot do. They will also be able to help decide the path the story takes every so often, as well as introduce their own personal settings and whatnot. Bonus. If you want to be a Co-GM, PM me about it. If we get into Co-GM wars (I doubt it but hey), I will decide who gets to be one based upon how well they perform *ahem* a certain task for me.
Rules First:
Limited to seven players. After I get three, I’ll start. After I get seven it will close.
However, if I have less than seven, I will choose only one Co-GM instead of two for my own reasons.
1) No godmodding, powerplaying.
2) Your real-world characters start out fairly average. They do NOT start out at level 27 with an omega level gunsword, 1000/1000 HP and the best Tricks out there. That would not make any sense at all. Thank goodness I assign points for you.
3) Be respectful and kind to other players OOC. When IC, stay true to your characters. Don’t have them do crazy things or things they wouldn’t do without a good reason.
4) No wings. Even if a bird or dragon, say goodbye to wings unless I give permission otherwise. Kin hybrids are fine.
5) No whining. I eat whiners for breakfast. If you want to talk about something that’s bugging you or complain in a civilized manner, PM a GM.
6) Mama didn’t raise no fool. For the love of alchemy, use fairly good grammar and spelling. Posts must be three lines or longer.
7) Alright. Let’s get one thing straightened out and get it straightened out right now. I know I have a bad history with RP’s. I know I’m so busy that I have a hard time posting when I should. I get it. But please do not be resentful of me. I really care about what I do when it comes to RPs, everyone’s, not just my own. Because of that…I decided to do the wave for our posting system. I will post first. Then everyone else, even me, has three days to post however much they’d like. The forth day, I’ll post with some establishment again and the process starts again. I believe that even I have the time to handle a four day system like that.
8) If you don’t post at least once within the three day wave, you get a strike. That includes myself and Co-GM’s…hopefully I won’t get myself kicked out of my own RP and have to hand it over to another person. I can skip you if you give a good reason.
9) Before you start a battle (RPG style or FPS style) with another character or NPC, tell me here or in PM so I can watch over it. I control most NPCs.
10) There needs to be an even number of rules.
Story
(My two co-gm’s will receive the ‘complete,’ 'actual' story. Giddums.)
Six o' clock at night in Allebaster, Tennesse. A bus stop full of average as well as not so average people from every species, every walk of life and every background prepare to leave what they had behind and head for something better--- the glamor of Las Vegas, Nevada. Whatever their reason for going, they've made sure to bring all they needed with them, however much or little that is. They all have their problems, their facades and their promises. They all have their dreams. The bus pulls out of the lot; they wave goodbye to what 'was' and embrace 'what is,' But little do they know 'what is'...isn't so wonderful. Little do they know that the bus driver is in it for something bigger than a paycheck...and little do they know that the bus isn't headed for the city of sin.
It's headed for the city in the stars.

- You: Omg Sasha, that was the shortest story ever, omg I don't get it. Me: Shush. Looks like you're already whining, I made it that way on purpose. You normal players are not supposed to be in the know. I want to surprise you so that you may learn to make your chars adapt to whatever situation is thrown at them. That is part of the whole purpose of the game. While I have a pretty intense RPG-like battle system, a lot of it is more on character development.
- If you need more of a teaser, I will tell you that it takes place in outer space. It is very psychedelic. (Think Pink Floyd.) And it has enough action to please an FPS buff, enough techno-punk to please a sci-fi fan, and enough gore to please a horror enthusiast.
- This is heavily influenced by the sci-fi side of Final Fantasy video games and for people who hate JRPGs, it also has a lot of gunplay, war-type stuff so don't fret. (*cough* Gabag *cough*)
- I plan on helping you out when I can--- throwing in a new character, new plot, a new adventure, a new quest, etc. Don't worry about running out of things to do.
- Most fighting will run as in a JRPG--- I will assign all characters a certain amount of HP (and TP, Trick points, which they do not have now) at the start of the game. During a battle, I or another GM will tally and keep track of how much HP or TP you are losing or gaining, depending on your actions. At the end of a battle, I will assign XP, experience points. After you gain a certain amount of XP, you gain a level. Don't worry about keeping of it yourself, I will do it for you and record it in the character area below. Enemies will drop money and you will be able to keep a recorded inventory, and visit shops to buy new gear, weapons, and other things familiar if you've played that type of video game before. If you haven't, and are confused, PM me for help.
- I will play the role of your adversary in a battle against a NPC, posts will go back and forth in FICTION style until there is a winner. That is, they will be written out in narrative just like any other RP, except there will be a lot more back and forth turn taking as far as 'making a move' goes.
- The same goes for battles against other characters.

Characters and Player Stats
Name: Mariah Baker
Gender: Female
Species: Coyote/Mountain Lion cross
Age: 14
Appearance: Thin and gangly for a girl. Rough, scruffy, but beautifully patterned brown, light black and tan fur. Long braided black hair tipped in red. Long scruffy tail. Yellow eyes. Wearing a blue dress the foster mother picked out.
Belongings: A backpack full of clothes and stolen food. A sketchbook and pencil.
Personality: Seems to ignore most people around her, aside from her little sister. In general, however, is openly friendly and smiling to those who try to get her attention. Lives through her art.
Why is she going:
She and her sister are going to escape a violent, abusive past. They don't have the money for anything better than a bus ticket.
What did she leave behind:
A sadistic foster mother (think Glass House) and a house of strict conformity.
Bio: Mariah's father and mother were arrested on drug dealing charges a year back. Having no eligible family to take care of her or her sister, they were shoved into foster care. Their new mother happened to be a complete witch. Every misstep on the children's part----be it academics, chores, etiquette, or even stepping out of line ---was met with physical and emotional torture. Get anything lower than an A...loose your privilege to eat breakfast and dinner for a week. Flirt with a boy...find yourself locked in the closest over the weekend. Start a fight with her...get your wrists burned with a lighter. You see, her foster mother was a strict (if psychotic) closet fascist who relished in the dream of reviving a Hitler's Jugend state of mind. She believed that a child less than perfect was not a child at all. Chassity desperately wanted to get her and her sister help, call the police, something, but their foster mother used a severe threat to stop her: you call the police, you get any sort of "help" from this heathen government, and I will kill your little sister the moment I see those cop cars pull up. Since her little sister was not in school, she was with 'mother' all the time. Chassity had to take the threat seriously. Running away was also out of the question...until now.
One cold night over dinner, their foster mother admitted she was tired of trying to get them to conform. She wanted them gone. And asap. She challenged them to 'get lost' with a game: you have two days to get out of my sight. I wouldn't suggest you go to the authorities...they'll just bring you back to me, and even if they try to investigate, we already discussed how I will handle that. If you don't dissapear in two days, or if they catch you and bring you back, I will go ahead and kill the both of you.
So the young duo did as they were told without hesitating. They stole some of her money and food, and they walked to this very bus stop.
