[X] My Assistant

[Axel]

This land, this world with no name, it was once a place of peace and harmony. People worked together to support each other, they got on so well. It was a happy place to be, with lush countrysides and bustling cities full of smiling faces. Nobody wanted for anything, everyone was so cheerful and optimistic.
Then the darkness came, and the land began to fall silent.
It spread from the Palace.
Out across the land the dark cloud went, reaching every corner until every last inch of the world had been covered by this strange half-light, this ominous shadowy gloom which froze everyone in their tracks.
Literally.
The cities are now full of statues of the people who once walked their streets.
The villages are silent as the grave, a graveyard for several villagers now made of stone.
It spread from the Palace.
The animals were affected too, but differently: they became savage monsters, preying on each other and causing chaos and havoc wherever they went. They had been transfigured and twisted out of their natural shapes into hideous beasts.
The plants and the trees were bent out of shape, transformed into withered, decaying shells of their former selves.
Water became dirty and polluted by this strange cloud of darkness, to the point that it was undrinkable.
And if it was drunk, a fate worse than that of the animals was waiting for the poor soul who had drunk it.
It spread from the Palace.

However ...

The Crystals appeared one day to these chosen people, not long before the darkness began to spread.
No one seems to know what they are for.
But it's clear that they have some significant meaning in this.
The owners of the Crystals weren't affected by the darkness's touch.
It's up to them to save the world from this darkness...
The darkness that spread from the Palace of Liquid Shadows.

1. All GTS+ roleplay and forum rules apply.
2. Literacy is important. Typos are acceptable (hey, we're only human!) but please try your best to user grammar, punctuation, layout and spelling properly for the sake of the other players.
3. Short posts are acceptable as long as they are critically relevant - posts should be at least five sentences long wherever possible. Be descriptive!
4. Only two characters per person for now - this may increase or decrease with time and depending on interest.
5. Try to keep PG 13 as much as possible - swearing is okay. Update: Just to stay true to the rating, if you do get into trouble with the animals, scenes of violence are okay as long as they're not overly graphic or detailed.
6. Post an Altaria in your sign up to prove that you've read these rules.

This is fantasy. The only technology allowed to be owned is a form of transport known as a 'hoverboard', which is powered by Energy magic. Everything else is in a medieval Zelda-style setting.
Magic is channelled through staffs and is mostly used to make life easier, though it can also be used for battle. The types of magic you can use are listed in the Sign-Up form, and their individual uses will be explained and decided upon in due course.
Imps come in four varieties: Air, Earth, Fire and Water. If you choose to be one, please keep in mind that:

• Fire Imps have a red, orange and yellow colour scheme
• Water Imps have a blue and purple colour scheme
• Earth Imps have a brown, tan and green colour scheme
• Air Imps have a white, silver and gold colour scheme

Demons have varying shades of grey skin and are generally quite lawless.

About the Crystals themselves - there are two of each colour. Once two characters have the same colour crystal, that's it, you can't have that colour of crystal. You'll have to pick another. (I don't think I'll get more than twenty-four people in this, but if I do, I'll change this.) The colours you can pick from are in the Sign-Up form.
