Alright, so there's alot of different RPs running here, so I decided " heck, why not make one myself"
Here we go, please excuse anything if it's too cliche or whatnot

Story: For thousands of years, legends have spreaded across Earth, stories of people, both normal and special teaming up against Tyrants, Alien Invaders, and even Demons from alternate dimensions. But there has been no more legends to be created, for many years, there was peace throughout Earth. People relied on their city or country officials to run everything in worldly afairs and all was at peace.

One day however, a man possessed with much greed, money, and a unending thirst for power began to anonomiously attacking all the other countries, missles and gunfire lighting up the night sky. There needs to be written another legend...another legend to save the Earth and it's people.

Setting: It is a somewhat modern feeling with some futuristic things existing ( humanoid robotics, cyborgs, some lazer weapons, etc ). The Earth has changed a slight amount; after a brief period of Global flooding, it quickly shaped the landscape and after several hundred years, most of the seawater dissapeared. Giving the Earth a 45% land 55% ocean basis. This also caused a bit of destruction of animal and plant life, but again over time, the animals and plants adapted

Classes, Weapons, etc: Swords and bows no longer exist unless if it is an antique and are replaced with Baseball Bats, Sledge Hammers, Brass knuckles, Pistols and whatnot

Magic does not exist in this era, instead, some ( and I mean it.. only SOME ) people are able to possess PSI ( Psychokenitic ) powers. The list is as follows:

Fire - ability to create fire from your fingertips and shoot it at one person or alot of people. who or how many depend on finger gesture ( pointing to person and saying PSI Fire or moving finger in a vertical fashion and then saying PSI Fire). hurting multiple people makes it less powerful.

Ice - ability to create a block of ice from the palm of your hand and shoot it at a person, it never misses since you locked the specific person with the PSI, it can only hit one person at a time

Thunder - ability to shoot lightning from fingertips ( or eye in one character's case ). it can hit up to 4 different people or similtaniously, this PSI can be inaccurate and can be able to miss one to all targets.

Quake - ability to use a small earthquake to hit a one person multiple times. It can only hit one person at a time and may not affect some types of people

Sheild - creates a PSI shield that can temporarily block other PSI or energy attacks for either one person or all people, the more people it is used on mean it takes up more PSI and it lasts shorter, it is better used when you use it multiple times, this tech is called " shield layering "

Repel ( or Reflect) - creates a PSI mirror that can deflect some PSI attacks and hit the oppenent.

Telekenisis - ability to talk to animals, plants, inatimate objects, or other people via the mind. Also lets you read peoples minds. good for long range communication

Life - ability to sacrifice some PSI energy to give you a small amount of health, also heals small problems { i.e. colds, sunburn, and blindness due to bright lights }

Meteor - creates a Psychic " Star" that can be shot at a foe, it can only hurt one foe and has a 1/10 chance of hitting target. It is extremely powerful.

Teleport - allows you to travel from one town to the another, but you must have visited it at least once, and you need to be running at a high speed to teleport. during this " Teleport Dash " you must not get hit by any large object { ie people, trees, large rocks, pets, etc} if you do, you must start it all over again

Magnet - a bubble surrounding you attracts other peoples PSI towards you, absorbing the damage and giving you more energy instead of being hurt. It can't absorb PSI Meteor or PSI Quake. If an enemy gets into contact with the PSI Magnet, they will get hurt with a small electric shock.

Hypnosis - lulls an enemy into a trance and makes them fall asleep for awhile, it also allows you to talk to them to learn about secrets they normally wouldn't tell ( great for interrogation ). It doesn't work all the time

Paralysis - sends psychic shock waves into a person, leaving them paralyzed for a moderate period amount of time, allowing escapes. This PSI doesn't work all the time, but has higher chances than PSI Hypnosis.

Beam - shoots a beam of concentrated PSI at a foe, it has slightly more power than energy weapons, but cannot affect aliens and takes alot of PSI energy to use.

Races:

Human- the main and dominant species of the Earth, pretty self explanitory on them, and they are the only ones who are able to possess PSI

Lycos- a sub-species of Human that have some animalistic abilities. The main difference between Lycos and Humans is that Lycos have animalistic tails and ears. They are able to go into a "Savage" state, but it takes out alot of energy out of them. Lycos CAN'T use PSI

Aliens- most alien species are unknown, but there has been some reports of some aliens existing peacefully with other humans. Some aliens possess PSI powers as well, but not as many or as strong as humans

Rules:
No Godmoding

Only 10 people ( I will accept 15 people if this RP actually gets popular XD )

Only 3 people will be able to use guns, and yes, you can invent some guns, but you have to give them some sort of weakness or whatnot. Also , the character MUST have some ammo rounds in it, if it is an energy weapon, then it only has a max of 3 shots.

Killing NPC's is okay, but main villians, other important story characther or other peoples chars will have to result in a posting between the two. You cannot say " Chris shot Jeff and he died" you can say " Chris shot at Jeff " but then the other person can have a say. Also, you need to get hit at least some times, I mean come on, you can't dodge all of them ;3

Edit: You cannot have all of the PSI powers mentioned, you can only have a limit of 2 attack and 3 defensive, ask me if you wanna know which ones are which. Only 4 people can have PSI ( one is reserved for me XP )

Please keep Bios on a sort of odd basis, be creative. Make one of your chars a wannabe gangster with an odd obbsession with cats or somethin. You can have some cliche things, but I want people to be a it creative

No arguing, please PM arguments or put them on my little page for disscussion for this thing

Have fun, that's what RPing is all about

Edit: Bio sheet:

History
Weaknesses

uh....I can't think of anythin else, tell me if you're interested I'd really appreciate it

Thanks for listenin
CMB

Can I have arms made of sledgehammers?

...T.T' Arms of sledge hammers? C'mon, really?

Anyways i am mildly interested but let me think this over before i post a Char.Sheet.

well...that's creative, I like that
Sure, why not, but you gotta make him a cyborg or something like that, so chances are he won't be able to use any PSI and be very weak to PSI Lightning

But I'll let you do what you need to do on makin the guy

Can I also cover him in ovaries, and say they are his battle trophies?
I kid, I kid.
I probably won't join the RP though, cause I'm in about 10.

...yeeeeeeeeeah....I only go so far to the creativity. It's OK, I was just happy to see that some people are actually interested ( including you HellhounD )

I guess we should make our own bio formats?

Name: Zenard
Age: 48
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 178lbs
Appearance: his hair is red and in a ponytail going halfway down his back. his eyes are a dull greyish blue. His left eye is scarred, and he mostly wears an eyepatch under a headband to prevent too much light in it: It hurts to use it. This eye is how he focuses his magic into a usable form: though it hurts him to do so.
Clothing: Wears a black Bisounin coat over his dress shirt, and slacks to match. He has black combat boots, and has an amulet inset with a ruby, his birthstone. It is of nothing but sentimental value to him.
Equipment: A katana, and a pair of bracers on his arms under the sleeves of the coat.
PSI:
Offensive:
Beam, Thunder
Defensive:
Shield, Repel, Teleport
Personality: Quiet and withdrawn, he never likes to talk much and isn't one to waste words.
History: He's a retired arms dealer of a rather well-off syndicate, who has since set up an item shop and fences items and acquisitions for his ex-workers in exchange for future favors. His nickname was while he was on the payroll and still is for his trademark silence is "Sanguine". He also uses this as a code to prevent the authorities from tracking him down.
Weaknesses: Can only cast magic with his scarred eye open
Strengths: very skilled with a sword, and talented in spellcasting.

This is a classic example of a borderline god-moder, and if I hadn't had such experience RPing to know my limits this could easily turn into one. If you're new here, it would be wise to watch people who enter with bios like these, if you don't set down safeguards against them.

First off, CRAP! I forgot those small details bout bio formats, gonna edit my story then
Second off, yes, I will take your advice and watch those people
Third off, Lycos aren't able to have PSI powers ( again, I gotta revamp that )

understood, I'll make him human, since his magic is more a part of his character than his race.


Please try to include such valuable information to prevent misleadings from henceforth.

True, but please call it PSI since magic doesn't exist. Oh, and I did add in more specifics and other things to not make people TOO powerful, please read all the Edits and see that Heal doesn't exist anymore, just to give you fair warning ;3

Also, Telekinesis ISN'T an offencive PSI...at least not in this RP

I have edited my bio for Zenard. Please re-review it.

Telekenesis is in the defensive PSI category. I was not planning on using it as a weapon yet.

You also neglected to mention the fact that there were no evils in 300 years. You said a while, but were not quite specific.

Also, I left the age as question marks because I couldn't think of a good age to make him.


you have also neglected to include the new amount of PSI.

And I call it magic because I've spent too much time playing in RPs where it was magic.

if you would answer these questions for me, I'll edit accordingly.

Almost approved, just need to make a few changes
First off, only 2 offencive PSI
Second off, only 3 Defencive PSI
Third, delete the "Zero" bit, there hasn't been any heros or even the NEED for heros since 300 years ago, also get rid your persons part of " being a hero" too

Everything else seems legit so, fix them things and you're good to go

PS it's PSI not magic

so edited. He is now a retired syndicate member who now runs a laundering shop.

There we go, that's much better
Alright, your char is accepted

Welcome to At Earth's Edge!
