Aeon​

The universe is boundless. For every star, there's a story. This particular one simply spanned the reaches of the galaxy.

It isn't news to anyone that the cosmos is a place of chaos. War and terror; two universal constants of sentient life that seemed to trickle into every civilization in the stars. Whenever peace is attained, it always seemed to be ripped. All it takes was one megalomaniac with a superweapon, an army, and a plan to throw off the balance of a system's survival. This was complicated even further when Aura, a power that seemed to transcend the understanding of reality that all in the universe had, found its way into the galaxy.

Then again, wherever there are villains, there are bound to be heroes. Those who fight for peace; the galaxy has known many, seen them both rise and fall. Only the Guardian Core, an ancient organization bound by their want for peace in the galaxy, has stood the test of time.

__

Yet another RP here. This one is Aeon, and will be co-GM'd by myself and @Flaze.

The setting is in the distant future, with the main setting being on a planet called Anthea. This planet is the hub of the Guardian Core, housing a massive headquarters, room and board, and various facilities to fill the needs of those that train there. Each and every warrior is trained to utilize their weapon and Aura in tandem, as neither is more useful than the other.

Your character will be in the Guardian Core, set to be one of the newest candidates that has passed their exam to move into a team. You can also create almost any other type of character you wish, but one that is a part of the Guardian Core is necessary. They can be either human or a species of creature you wish to create all your own - there are limitations one needs to mind in that case, discussed in the rules.

Rules

Spoiler

1. BMGf rules always apply.
2. No godmodding, metagaming, etc.
3. Any and all species of creatures, humans included, are not naturally capable of doing anything "magical". If your species has any type of natural mechanism, it has to be mundane. (ex: seeing well in the dark is fine, breathing fire/ice is not).
4. No blatantly overpowered abilities with Aura.
5. The GM's word is law, and the Moderator's law is even higher. If one of these two tell you to do something, please don't make a fuss.

Name: Liana Zanfel
Sex: Female
Species: Half-Human
Age: 24

Faction: Other

Appearance
Liara is a human-hybrid. Her hair is a dark brown, which she consistently keeps fashioned into dreadlocks tied into a ponytail. Her skin is mocha. This is where her fundamentally human features end; her eyes are a strange blue coloration, with the schlera and irises being the same. while most of her face is rather smooth, her cheek and down her body has patches of scaly texture. Her teeth are all sharp fangs.

Personality
Quiet, cunning, precise. Liana prides herself on her ability to perform in the field. Her favored method of execution is reconnaissance, but she has been known to enter the frontlines should she have to. She tends to be more than a little insistent that things stay in order, and will often admonish her teammates if she sees them acting slovenly.

Equipment: Her pride and joy is her exosuit that grants her a number of powerful tools in combat. It comes equipped with a cloaking device, rendering her invisible for a period of time, and a speed modifier that lets her increase her speed to insane amounts. Her primary weapon is a modular rifle that transforms from a fully automatic assault rifle to a laser-powered bow.
Aura: None.
Skills: Exceptionally honed sniper, scouting, and espionage skills. Somehow capable of cleaning spotlessly and maximizing space due to her very detail-oriented personality.

Personality
Confident but calm in most situations. A bit snarky, but normally very friendly to most. Although just recently graduating to becoming a trainee, he is assured in his ability to do what he must. He firmly believes in the ideal of a hero, and has trouble believing that people can be as evil as many of them are in the galaxy.

Equipment: His
Aura: The manipulation of spatial matter. Kam is capable of twisting and bending space around him, using it to crush, rip, and bend its properties for limited amounts of time. This manifests mostly by granting him teleportation, but he has a number of other techniques he's made for himself.

Flaze's Sign Ups:

Spoiler

Name: Blair Gallahorn

Sex: Female

Species: Human

Age: 18


Faction: GC


Appearance: Blair has amber eyes and dark skin, her hair is black and is always messy, falling down to her ears and past her neck. She has a scar that goes around her neck, which she usually keeps covered by a scarf and also has multiple scars on her legs, waist and right shoulder.


Personality: Blair is very calm and serious, usually choosing not to speak in most situations unless she’s spoken to. She’s not particularly closed or withdrawn towards others and has a soft side towards animals and children. However, she can also be ruthless and quick to anger if you press her buttons. She can also be very methodical a lot of the time making it hard for her to have much room for growth.


Equiptment: Blair’s main weapon is a large sword made out of White Chromozoid (a substance found in a far away planet) which she can use to cut down easily through most substances. She can extend the handle of the sword enough and use it as a spear and can also activate a button hidden in the handle to split the sword across the middle to reveal a small cannon that she can use for far reaching attacks.


Blair’s other weapon is a simple blaster and a long chain that she uses to bind her enemies.


Aura: Blair’s aura manifests as an enhancer type of ability. She can control the aura around her body to increase her capabilities, things such as her strength, speed, endurance and sometimes even her intellect.


Skills: Skilled in martial arts and parkour, has good negotiation skills and is good at stealth operations.

Spoiler

Name: Kamui

Sex: Female

Species: Lan’iard

Age: 22


Faction: Other


Appearance: Kamui has long red hair that goes down to her waist which she keeps ties around in a long ponytail. She has blue eyes and severely pale skin, causing people to sometimes think she might be sick. Due to Lan’iards’ similarities to human she can pass off as one without any problem though.


Personality: Sadistic to a fault and completely obsessed with fighting, Kamui can sometimes come off as a bloodthirsty knucklehead to others but is actually really cunning, she likes to have her fun and to hunt down her prey which makes it really hard to work with for others. She’s not incapable of controlling herself though but she also tends to keep her cards close to her chest, making it hard for people to know what she’s actually thinking.


Equiptment: None


Aura: Kamui’s aura manifests around her body, giving her heightened sensing abilities to allow her to know what’s going on around her, this helps make her hard to hit but also isn’t perfect as sometimes even after sensing what’s coming she isn’t able to stop it or dodge in time.


Skills: natural born fighter and skilled in multiple fighting styles, good tactician (but only against individuals), is a skilled hacker but prefers the high she gets from fighting and has highly above average strength and body performance thanks to her Lan’iard bloodline, however she’s also really weak to sun shine.

Get your Guardians of the Galaxy and Star Wars jokes out.

 

[Taengoo]

Name: Cain
Sex: Female
Species: Human
Age: 19
Faction: GC

Appearance: [ x ]
Personality: At first, she seems like the silent type - and that's probably because she is, for the most part. Cain does have a bit of trouble making friends; this is usually due to her intimidating demeanor, and just being lost in general when it comes to social interaction. For those that do end up getting to know her, she's still rather reserved, but quite a bit more outgoing than she is with others. Despite her stoic nature, she knows how to have a good time, and has a decent sense of humor. Often mistaken for a male, she's very tomboyish and hates dresses.

Equipment: Hybrid buster sword that has two alternate forms; it can become a gun, and can split down the middle to become a pair of arm guards/brawlers.
Aura: Her aura allows her to quite literally become a shadow; she can hide in the shadows of other objects and people, and occasionally uses it to scare people for fun. Because it utilizes shadows as its main conduit, airborne combat is an immense struggle for her; likewise, intense light can temporarily weaken her.
Skills: A decent cook. A master at chess.

As always, lemme know if I need to change anything. Theme is Keshin (Asami Imai).

Hm, first RP, what the heck might as well give it a shot. Gotta start somewhere right?
Name: Luka Jax
Sex: Male
Species: Human
Age: 18
Faction: Guardian Core

Appearance: Somewhat lanky as far as build goes, roughly 4-5 inches taller than most. Blonde hair, roughly to the bottom of his ears in length, generally spiked. Normally wears cargo shorts and a T-shirt, often with a jacket over the top. When on a mission however, he is sensible enough to switch to a more appropriate slim fitting full length pants and tighter shirt.
Personality: He's wanted to join the Guardian Core ever since he was a little kid, and now that he's passed his test, he's positively ecstatic. He's got a generally optimistic and "never say die" attitude. He is eager to prove himself and is glad to show just what he can do. He tends to make jokes to lighten the mood when things get low. His somewhat excessive perkiness does tend to get on people's nerves though sometimes.

Equipment: A pair of laser chackram housed on a harness on his back, while harnessed, they are in an inactive state, simply rings of metal with handles on the inside. When he needs to use them however, he activates a switch and a blade of bright blue energy engages around the rims. While he has two he tends to only use one at a time to make use of his aura with the other arm. The chackram have a built in homing device synced to bracelets on his wrists and minor anti-grav capabilities, so that after he's thrown them they can return to him without him having to make a perilous attempt to reclaim them the old fashioned way.
Aura: His Aura constantly surrounds him, in an idle state wisps of royal blue light swirl around him. When he actively needs to fight however he will rein his aura in to form a protective casing around his entire body. This casing protects him from a certain amount of damage, however force still moves through it, making him still vulnerable to crushing or blunt force attacks. If pushed too far it will give, so any attack above a significant force will break through the aura to deal good damage. He can manipulate his aura to form solid constructs as needed, from shields and bludgeons for combat to spatula for cooking. Being composed of pure energy they are also conveniently light. Unfortunately the constructs can't involve moving pieces and can't move away from his body, so no guns, throwing knives, etc.
Skills: Surprisingly good hearing, excellent reflexes, great a video games (Unfortunately this doesn't tend to translate well into the outside world)

Welp, there we go. Tell me if anything feels like it needs changing. Hope this is okay for a first time.

Character 1:

Spoiler

Name: Artessia Aqua
Sex: Female
Species: Twi'lek
Age: 19
Faction: Guardian Core
Appearance:

Personality: Artessia is kind and giving. She doesn't have a bad bone in her body or a mean impulse. She also believes in the best of people, which is why she joined the GC. She believes that everyone and everything can be good and contribute to the galaxy if given the chance. She is against hurting others or killing unless there is simply no other choice, however she is willing to do whatever it takes for the good of others. She is a disciplined student and thinks nothing of self-sacrifice should it benefit others.

Equipment: 2x laser swords. You all know how these work and what they do.

Aura: Her aura is a blue glow that surrounds her. It does a number of things. First it naturally helps to cheer up and improve the mood of her friends and allies. Secondly it allows her to communicate with most animals (they have to be somewhat sentient for this to work, it isn't like she can communicate with bacterium and germs or small insects). It also helps her to commune with nature in order to get a better idea of her surroundings.

Skills: Besides a level of dueling skill with her blades, Artessia is also a skilled cook. She's also a gardener in her spare time, and as expected given her aura she has an affinity for animals both wild and domesticated.

Character 2:

Spoiler

Name: Fitz McCoy
Sex: Male
Species: Human
Age: Mid 20s
Faction: Other. Independent Business Man (read space pirate)
Appearance: The Man

The Ship:

Personality:

Fitz is brash, cunning, mischievous and charming. He's the kind of man who's loyal to his friends (especially his two crew mates, both of whom he would take a bullet for) but absolutely merciless towards his foes. He is courageous and has no concept of danger, to the point where most people think he has a death wish. He also has problems with authority, which is one of the reasons that he struck out on his own. While Fitz prefers to avoid straight up combat (preferring to use wit and guile to slip away when possible), if he's forced to fight he's a brawler in close range with considerable skill (not to mention packing quite a bit of firepower for just those occasions). Even though he really should know better, he doesn't believe in the existence of Aura. He thinks that's it's nothing more than a con or a parlor trick.

Equipment: Besides his ship (named the Maltese Falcon), he has the following equipment.

2x blaster pistol. Fires powerful lasers, but these hand cannons fire slowly and overheat quickly, they sacrificing speed and durability for pure power. Holstered on his hips.
1x laser shotgun. Fires an explosive blast of plasma. A close ranged nightmare for anything caught in the way. Slung across his back.
2x plasma cutters. These are nasty blades that can be extended from throwing knives to short sword like blades should things get really messy. He keeps these in his boots.

Aura: No aura.

Skills: Fitz is a skilled close-quarters fighter with his pistols, shotguns and cutters. He also throws a mean right hook if all else fails. As the pilot of the Maltese Falcon he is also incredibly skilled behind the sticks of most spacecraft. On a three man crew he has also been forced to become a competent mechanic to fix the ship when need be. Fitz is also a rather skilled card player (but an even better card cheat). He can hold his liquor like a man twice his size.

@Yun gave me permission for two, so here ya go.

Spoiler

Name: Thomas Wardlaw
Sex: Male
Species: Human
Age: 26

Faction: Guardian Core

Appearance: Not much is known about Thomas' appearance other than he's tall - about 6'7" - and he's male. Wearing a full armor-suit designed to amplify his abilities to combat-efficiency, Thomas is an often imposing and intimidating figure, with one arm bearing a large gravity cannon and his body adorned with gadgets and gizmos of all sorts.

Personality: Thomas is silent, rarely speaking unless spoken to and only in short sentences. His isn't anti-social or rude, but intensely focused on the task at hand. He doesn't feel the need for the frivolities of idle conversation or witty banter, nor does he ever seem keen to explain himself or his actions unless expressly required.

Thomas isn't angry, though, just focused. He is more than willing to cooperate with teammates in dire situations, and does what he can to protect his allies if it can be helped. Above all, though, the mission comes first; if forced to choose between the life of a friend or the success of the mission, more often than not, he will choose the latter, albeit with a tinge of regret. On the outside he may find ways to rationalize such decisions, but even still, he doesn't take delight in making them.

Equipment: Thomas' main form of attack is his arm cannon. Capable of firing both standard laser blasts as well as specialized gravity rounds, his arm cannon can quickly mete out punishment to his enemies. In terms of defense, Thomas relies on his powersuit to keep him safe, though preferably he'd like whatever is shooting him to be dead before it can fire back. In addition, Thomas' suit is also equipped with a variety of technologies for use in battle, such as night vision, thermal vision, a wrist-mounted dart gun, and other minor additions.

Aura: Thomas' aura centers around gravity (no pun intended). One of the main reasons for his powertsuit is to keep himself grounded more than anything. His power is unpredictable without his armored suit to keep it in check; without it, he is prone to float off or for random objects to suddenly grow ten times heavier. With his powersuit, he can focus and generate small pockets of gravity to fit a given situation, as well as launching special gravity rounds from his arm cannon to weaken opponents. He can only manipulate small pockets, though, and changing gravity in a large area generally requires a great amount of focus and endurance.

Skills: Living most of his life in his heavy armor suit, it was only natural that Thomas would become incredibly strong physically. Even without the assistance of aura, Thomas can easily lift objects heavier than himself, and possesses an incredible amount of physical endurance.

Character 2!

Spoiler

Name: Uzziaz Leo'ex
Sex: Male
Species: Terrotek
Age: 19

Faction: Fitz McCoy.

Appearance: Being a Terrotek, Uzziaz is humanoid but with the exception of a scaley, reptilian hide and an elongated snout with a toothy grin. His scales are a faint tinge of green, fairly standard for his species, with his hands and feet slightly webbed with thick claws. He stands at a normal height, around 6'2", with blue eyes.

Personality: Uzziaz is almost religiously devoted to his craft. A bounty hunter by trade, Uzziaz travels the galaxy, ever in search of greater and fiercer challenges to overcome. Hunting is something his species does naturally, most Terroteks belonging to a religious sect simply called "The Pursuit." In The Pursuit, Terroteks seeks to gain favor from their god by continually offering greater and greater targets to what the call "The Watcher."

As such, Uzziaz is a man of honor. He only hunts those who are worthy, and always prefers a fair fight, once in which it can be said he felled his opponent based on skill alone. Any sort of underhanded tactics he detests, and anything less than a straight, one-on-one fight he abhors. After all, The Watcher desires only the best of his followers, and fighting and felling an enemy at their mightiest proves your determination and honor.

Though considered a travelling nomad, Uzziaz isn't without a bit of wit. Possibly as a side-effect from hanging out with Fitz too much, Uzziaz has developed a humorous side along with his hunt, taking joy in combat and relishing the chance to dodge a bad situation by the skin of his teeth. Even still, Uzziaz is loyal only to those worthy of his notice, and believes that him and his comrades should never back down from a fight. Even when the odds are against him, Uzziaz will fight to his last breath, to destroy his target and assist his allies. To die honorably is the quickest path to The Watcher's gaze... or so he says, anyways.

Equipment: Uzziaz's main weapon of choice is a ceremonial warblade crafted specially by himself, used by any hunter of his species. Being a sword in a time of lasers and superior technology, Uzziaz's weapon is fitted to keep up with his opponents. Made of an impossibly sturdy alloy called "Duranium," his sword, which he has named "Zurzek" is virtually unbreakable. Sharp enough to cut through any armor, Uzziaz has honed his skills in sword-play to be able to out-match any gun wielding foe. Nevertheless, Uzziaz still carries a small, close-combat laser pistol for those times when the distance between him and his foes cannot be closed.

Aura: Though Uzziaz possesses no Aura ability, he has a great respect and admiration for those who do. Being able to fell an opponent with Aura is even greater to him, though, proving that he doesn't need special powers or abilities to be a powerful warrior.

Skills: Uzziaz relies mostly on his ingenuity and cunning in battle, carrying only the bare essentials for traveling. His standard fare includes a grappling hook for climbing, unperishable rations for long journeys, and other basic survival tools. Other than those and his weapons, Uzziaz prefers to travel lightly.

[Meyneth]

Name: Azrail Rumjal

Sex: Female
Species: Half Human Tenshi
Age: 18

Faction: Guardian Core

Appearance: Azrail stands at about five foot one, with platinum blonde hair that she keeps in a short ponytail. She has yellow eyes. She wears a sky blue shirt and black pants. Most of Azrail looks human, but you could tell the difference if you look at her wrists. On each of her wrists you can see a small wing, about five inches long. The wing starts out white, but fades into a golden yellow at the tips, just a fraction of the size of a pure blood Tenshi.

Personality: Azrail believes that protecting the ones you care about and justice are the most important things in life. If she believes that a wrong has been done then she’ll try her best to find the truth, which is something that is also important to her. She believes that the well being of the people is also important.

Equipment: Azrail was given a Photon lance, a traditional weapon of the Tenshi by her mother. They have limited range capacities, being able to shot off a small blast of energy that can distract the foe. The blasts are more of a tool to get foes to come over to her, since the lance is built for close range combat, which Azrail excels at.

Aura: Electricity manipulation, she can create small bursts of Electricity and can fire it off or use it to power things and light dark areas. She can also Force Lightning to strike and can drain Lightning to form an Aura around her that can hurt and impede her foes, basically a souped up form of static electricity.

Skills: Azrail is light, like really light, she can jump a good five feet in the air, and can be thrown rather far. She can also read the wind, to tell what kind of weather may be coming and where the fronts are going.

 

[Flaze]

@Meyneth;

The sign up isn't bad but we will need clarification on a couple of things. First, does her lance use magic? if it does then you'll have to change that however we're mostly asking to specify. Second, while it wasn't outright stated in the sign ups all GC members must possess and Aura as they are trained to use their weapons and Auras at the same time.

 

[Meyneth]

The lance Does not use magic, It's solar powered, and has a limited number of "Rounds" it can fire off. I updated my SU to include an Aura.

 

[Taengoo]

Name: Pandora Shinozaki
Sex: Female
Species: Visqux
Age: 22

Faction: Fitz McCoy

Appearance: At first, she seems normal looking enough; that is, if multiple rows of sharp teeth, slitted eyes with a second lid, not to mention several spines protruding from the indent of her vertebrae can pass as normal. Upon looking closer, one can see the tiniest of scales, strung together so tightly, that they are almost obscure to the human eye. Slits along her neck on either side, akin to gills, often don't catch your attention either. She has jet-black hair, shaved off on the left side a little. Her eyes are crimson with black sclera, and she has tattoos on most every inch of her arms and neck. She is lean and doesn't seem to have much muscle on her at all.
Personality: Pandora is generally a laid-back prankster of sorts. She never really seems serious about what she does, though can be when she needs to be. It's rare of her to get angry, though when she does, it's generally something others do not want to be on the receiving end of. Though her monotone kind of makes her sound disinterested, she does in fact enjoy others' company.

Equipment: Two large scimitars that can transform into dual pistols with a variety of different rounds to use. Also wears a pair of wristblades that double as brass knuckles.
Aura: Hydrokinesis; allows her to manipulate water in most every form, so long as she has a water source.
Skills: Is able to breathe underwater via her gills - a very avid swimmer. Worked as a contortionist as a former circus performer, and thus is very flexible. Theme is Pandora no Yoru (ARTERY VEIN).

[Jimmy 3 People 0]

Name: Lucille "Lou" Navarette-Freeman
Sex: Female
Species: Human
Age: 20

Faction: Guardian Core

Appearance: B2W2 Guitarist
Personality: Lou generally maintains a friendly demeanor, never too extreme in her emotions. She often wears a content half-smile, though if she or one of her friends is harmed, this will disappear and be replaced by nothing but anger towards the offending party.

Equipment: Lou has three weapons - primary, secondary, and melee. Her primary weapon is a Gauss rifle, essentially an energy variation of a sniper rifle. Her secondary is a suppressed pistol, always loaded with hollow-point rounds. For melee, she uses a medium-length energy blade.
Aura: Lou's aura is, quite simply, poisonous - she is able to create and manipulate toxic, acidic, and radioactive substances.
Skills: Lou is a skilled guitar player and singer, and is well-versed in stealth. It's an interesting contrast.
