^{[Hey, Hey, Look! The RP is up!]}

Long ago, there was a powerful man. He could perform almost any feat needed, for this man was one thing – a wizard. This wizard, named Adam, could manipulate fire and water, shake the earth without a second glance, and even whip up tornadoes with a flick of his hand. If lucky, you could see him even turn night into day and then back into night. Some say he could even change the flow of time and space. In all, anyone could agree – this man was not one to cross.

Yet, even with his fearful status, Adam had managed to have a lady, the young Miss Lucina, to fall for him. It was only natural, with her youth and beauty, for Adam to return those feelings. Thus, within only few years, they had wed. At this time, Adam had finally composed the best wedding gift he could – their little world, separated from everyone else. Dubbed the City, this was a place that only drifted around in the fabrics of space. As it was soon found later, it was even a gateway to other universes.

During their time there, Adam and Lucina had invited many friends and family, even allowing complete strangers, to live within their City. It was, after all, a large place, and it was rather lonely without anyone. Soon, the City was a prospering place with people on every corner. Along with all of these people, the couple had brought several children, all daughters, into the City.

The first was Nova, who was smart and wise. She was gifted with control over the winds and air of the world.
The second was Audrey, who was mean and hot-tempered. She had the gift of shaking the earth to its core.
The third was Pandora. She was smart, able to do any strategic planning, yet remained calm at any time. She, once, was able to manipulate the night.
The fourth and fifth were twins, Riko and Rina. Riko was short tempered while Rina was calm, yet they always worked as a team. Rina was able to control water, while Riko controlled fire.
The final child, the sixth, was a girl named Justice. She was special, for it appeared of how she had inherited her father’s space bending skills. Alas, they were never truly trained properly, for she was only a baby once it all started.

But before, the family lived a good life. Alas, once they were bored, they found just what the City could be used for – the Game. The Game was of pulling people from their universe, almost always involuntarily, to partake in a game that was about two weeks long. Sadly for them, each day had a ‘curse’ set upon the city just so they could be tortured. At least, once dead or finished with the game, each character was sent back to their own universe.

Although, the Game, back then, seemed harmless. It just isn’t much of the same anymore.

As it started, Pandora had gone missing. Everyone had gone looking for her – after all, the City wasn’t that big of a place, excluding the additions made to it – and yet no one could find the girl. Then, the City had all thought they lost her forever. Alas, they let down their guard all too soon.

Come only months after her disappearance, a figure appeared within the City. Whatever was in its path it destroyed. No one knew who this figure was…no one, except for the sorrow filled mother. Yet, this was not the Pandora everyone had known. This was a girl with a corrupted appearance and soul, who was only driven by madness. She didn’t even recognize anyone. She only caused destruction.

It seemed that now, no one could stop her. At least, as it seemed. Yet, as the City lay in ruins, Lucina took it up as her own goal. Her own goal to stop her third child. Those who were still there to witness the event had said that it was almost catastrophic. In the end, neither truly survived. Pandora’s very body had been destroyed, her corrupted soul sealed away. Meanwhile, Lucina had fallen into a state of health that was close to death and, soon, had finally succumbed to it.

As the loss of his wife had ruined him, the corruption of his daughter and destruction of his own world had caused Adam to spiral into a depression, hiding himself away from everyone. His remaining family had been left with the City. The inhabitants were mostly either dead or moved away to someplace else. Very few, if any, really remained.

Years had then came and passed. The daughters worked their hardest to restore the city. Few weeks here and there, they’d run a small Game. Sadly, no matter what they really did, the City was never truly the same again. It was only an empty place of its once greatness. At least, it was peaceful.

Alas, even the peaceful didn’t last long. Around the City, odd earthquake like tremors began going through the city. Buildings seemed to be destroyed without any help. And, above all, another figure has begun to appear within the skyline. Although there was no clear look, they all knew just what it was.

Pandora was back.

Thus, the girls had tried to get to their father. They knew he would be within the white tower that stood within the middle of the city. There, the center of the City, the gateway to every other universe. Instead of a white tower, although, they came face to face with an ever-spinning roulette and an hourglass. The sands that ticked down, they guessed, were until Pandora was at full force.

As she had taken over the white tower, she had taken over the City. The four eldest daughters had then scattered to protect the City’s borders. They knew that, with a very good chance, Pandora wouldn’t stop at the City. She’d try to control the other universes, each and every one of them. As their magic surrounded the City, it became harder to ever get through. Although they knew it wouldn’t last, the borders would slow down Pandora.

Meanwhile, the youngest, Justice, had been given a task. Being the last of them, she was to run another Game. That way, she’d bring people from any dimension to aid their cause, even if it meant to force them to. Although they couldn’t truly guarantee it would all work, they were desperate.

The Game would begin their war.
And the Game would end it all.

So yes. An RP after who knows how long.
Originally this was gonna be a "Holy Shit she's back" kinda thing. But then I got distracted from other pretty RPs and plan was ruined.
ANYWAY

This RP, you do not make any characters.
Why?
Because you pick out characters, say Mario, and RP as them within the City.
You can pick anything you want.
No, seriously, I don't care if one person is Harry Potter and the other is a Pikachu while another is a dinosaur from Jurassic Park.
But there's more info down in the next spoiler.
This may or may not remind people of something else from TVTropes.
If it does you win cookies.

So uhm yeah.
Stop reading this and go on to the rest of this.
Seriously. Do it.
It's worth those seconds/minutes/whatever of your life.

Shadows are the first enemy sent out by Pandora. They will, at first, take upon a gas-like form, as if made of darkness itself, wearing cloaks like they ripped out pieces of a blank night sky. If taking a solid appearance, human-like shadows will take up appearances of people either extremely pale or of a sickly gray shade with red eyes, seemingly only with their black or deep gray cloaks. If an animal or such, they appear but like their real-world counterpart, but can vary in size, and are typically colored either black, dark gray, dark purple, dark navy blue, or even a deep red. Normally, their eyes are a blood red.

The normal, human-like shadows will group and hoard around a living being, killing them slowly, while animal shadows will seem berserk and attack ferociously. It's easy to spot Shadows, for their appearance will cause a large dark fog cloud to appear from the area they spawn, and will cause a change in weather, may is be rain or a thick fog all over the city.

Common Shadow
They are the common mook, basically a zombie-like-walking shadow person. The only danger is that they can copy whatever attack or weapon is thrown at them, but will stay with the power or weapon until it is killed, and may only copy one.

Shadow Bats
The common flying mook, the Bats are large bat-like creatures, of course. They will fly in the sky, scanning the horizon, looking for potential pray. Basically, anything that is still moving. The Bats can and will be quite ruthless.

Shadow Groundhogs
Groundhogs, basically. They will burrow underground, and will respond to the vibrations in the ground. By doing so, it will pop out, surprise the enemy, and then tear them to shreds with it's sharp claws. They mostly travel alone, but when in packs, it's quite a challenge.

Shadow Hedgehogs
Hedgehogs. They will run around the City, using their quills to fight. They can extend the quills to a good five feet, crating a barrier behind them, but open from the front. With these quills, they will also roll into balls to get around quicker. Their quills, once let loose of the body, will stick into the ground, and in a few short moments, explode into a small quick burning fire.

Shadow Slimes
Shadow Slimes, basically, are shadows that take up a liquid slime form. They are slow moving and not all that powerful, but their slime will stick to almost anything. By sticking to someone, the slimes can slow down their movements and possibly even build up enough to just about suffocate someone. Slimes normally follow one anther's trail, so it's common to see a pack of slimes trailing a single leader.

Shadow Scorpions
Scorpion like creatures, roughly the size of a large, full-grown dog. They are fast moving, preferring hot, sunny areas of the City. They like to dig under the garbage and debris, as if it were sand. Their stinger will cause characters to be slowed and sluggish, make them quite drowsy (or experience effects as if under heavy alcohol), or paralyzed completely for a short time. Otherwise, it's quite a sting. Scorpions will also attack with their heavy claws if they are unable to sting someone. They will either be in groups or not, but are known to be harder to take down in groups.

I. All normal rules apply
II. Spelling and grammar are a must, please.
III. No Godmoding at all. Bunnying is only acceptable when requested by the RPer themselves.
(Ex. RPer A is unable to post for two weeks, so s/he lets Player B control their character/s)

V. Two paragraphs minimum, please, unless awaiting another Player.
VI. Use OOC within the RP as ((this)) or [[this]]

VIII. Starting, two characters are acceptable. A third can be given once the Player has shown responsibility and such after certain parts in the RP.
IX. Pairs of characters (Think of Ash and Pikachu) that are unable to be separated can count as one character, if the player wishes.
X. To establish this, the characters the Players use cannot be OOCs. The characters are to come from any visual media, video games, literature, comics, web comics, ect.
XI. As a note, characters customizable within the games (Think of Persona protagonists or such) must be used with whatever cannon personality or such. Try to be as close as possible, please.
XII. If the character is too powerful, they will have to be cut down. This is only for fairness, mind you.
XIII. If your character is, for example, Darth Vader, they may have a troupe of Storm Troopers accompany them. These will act as NPCs, mind you again.

Appearance: (A picture is fine enough, but you can include a description.)

A Making of: (A short look into the character’s personality, their role in the story, and whatever you’d like to include. Not much is needed, though about a paragraph or two is fine.)

Other: (Is there something not included elsewhere?)

Reason for choosing?: (A small optional thing. Recommended, it tells of why in the world you had chosen what you need. Have fun.)

Username: Shadow Dragon
Name: Sho Minamimoto
Universe: The World Ends With You; Before Day Seven of Week Two.

Appearance: (x)

A Making of: In Shibuya, Tokyo, there is a game. In this game, if you die, you have a chance to be revived. Although, you must suffer through a week long game of pure suffering. This game happens to be run by Reapers, players that have gained status to govern the game. Sho Minamimoto just happens to be one of them – the youngest, in fact, being only 18.

Although, it is very obvious that the man, even if he may be a genius, is just down-right insane. But when you’re short on staff and you end up finding someone with a good mind, can’t help but have to make a sacrifice. Although he is good, the anti-social jerk he is doesn’t quite mix with the rest of the Reapers, especially they other few Game Masters. Lucky for them, he’ll be gone soon enough. Unluckily, it’s in the middle of the game he’s supposed to be running.

Equipment:
Pins: Standard Reaper equipment, Sho, like any other worth his status, has a whole mess of them. These pins will summon Noise; creatures (penguins, crabs, snakes, frogs, and bears) to fight upon their instinct and battle the opponent. Once summoned from the pins, although, Sho has no control on what the Noise does. Though, he prefers not to use regular noise, rather defaulting for Taboo Noise.

Taboo Pins: Taboo Noise, a stronger monochrome-color version of Noise, that has somehow been encased into pins. They are a bit more tricky to use, for they may end up even attacking Sho himself, unlike regular Noise. Again, he has no control on these Noise when they are summoned.

Revolver: A sleek black revolver, although borrowed. A lot. Although it could be more useful than the Noise, Sho refuses to use it. Maybe it’s more fun to see the enemy squirm as they slowly meet their end from oncoming onslaught.

Powers/Skills:
Summon Taboo Noise/Noise: One of the first thing Sho will end up doing is not joining the fight directly. Instead, he will summon upon the Noise from the pins. Although, he can absorb the Taboo Noise (and only that) which could lead to the transformation of slightly stronger Leo Cantus.

Leo Cantus Transformation: Transforming into a humanoid giant black lion, Sho is with slightly better strengths and defenses. Here, he summons no Noise, Taboo or not, and will resort to slamming or kicking the enemy, or even picking them up and slamming them back down. Although, he is much more slower in this form.

Teleportation/Flight: Being a ‘Reaper’ has its perks. One is of now being equipped with bar-like wings, three pairs of. This enables flight, although not the popular option. Plus, they will shatter and break when going into a battle where transformation is needed. Then, after words, they take some time to regrow. Although, the more popular option is of teleportation. Sho can teleport (and does it quite frequently, much of everyone’s annoyance) and can then move around a small area quickly.

Energy Blasts: When not as Leo Cantus, Sho does not use heads-on attacks. Instead, he ops for using energy bullets. They will either come in waves or spiral across an area. Although, it does leave him open from behind when these attacks are in use.

Taboo Summoning: Or so he thinks. Truly, Sho did learn the seal to summon the Taboo Noise, but it turns out he messed it all up. It was only from a Fallen Angel's interference did Taboo Noise actually appear. Just don't tell him that, though.

Level i Flare: A large attack that will dissolve almost anything it touches – including the user. Thus, this is more of a final trump card of death. Luckily for everyone, it, like teleportation, is refined to a single area.

Reason for choosing? : Well. That’s a hard one. Honestly, I like just how crazy Sho may be, yet somehow fitting in with everyone else. Then again, this is TWEWY. Anyway. Besides, he happens to be my favorite from there and why not just play out what you want to? Plus, it will be fun playing out a genius psychopath that talk with math phrases.
