Bounty Hunters: Brand New Journey
The world is vast and filled with adventure. Beings that present great dangers, people with great powers that have never been seen. This is the world ruled by Skills.
It all started over 400 years ago when a strange being appeared in our world. This being had great power that destroyed the world and wrapped it in darkness for 100 years. During this time the intrusion of the mysterious being caused the world to change, reshape and become different.
Countries combined, continents broke apart or reconfigured themselves. New species of animals were born and appeared, being that had only been seen in fantasies like Dragons, werewolves or other types of monsters both known and unknown to the world.
But the biggest change of all was the change to humans. People started to develop abilities known simply as Skills. People with skills were born with special conditions that allowed them to do great things.
Eventually peace returned to the world and it began to grow once more, returning to it’s former glory even with all the new additions to life. However, people with Skills were still something that created new breakthroughs.
In order to protect the peace in the world the Bounty Hunter Association was created along with Bounty Hunter. Bounty Hunters are Skill Users who go around the world, discovering treasures, defeating creatures and villains and completing missions assigned to them by civilians or by the BHA itself.
A lot of Bounty Hunters do work by themselves but the majority of them form Guilds, groups of Bounty Hunters that team up in order to take missions from people varying in rank and difficulty. Bounty Hunters Guild can be small or they can be huge and famous, but either way Bounty Hunters are usually looked up as heroes or people with great talents.
Great Bounty Hunter guilds have come and gone and some have stuck and left a big influence on the world. However, this story isn’t about those type of guilds but rather a new one, a new group of people that will cause the wheels to turn once more.

So welcome to Bounty Hunters: Brand New Journey. Now this is actually a sequel/remake of an old RP I had a couple of years ago. It takes place 400 years in the future in a world where people live with monsters and beings known as Creatures of different kinds. The world itself is actually very much like ours using the same technology and even having the same cultural aspects that make out ours like…the Internet and other stuff while still having some of its own advanced technology.
The biggest thing that stands out in this world though are Skills. Skills are special ability that a small part of the world’s population are born with. These Skills can range between three different fields
SKILLS
Life Energy: People that can control Life Energy are born with special pores that allow them to absorb the energy of the beings and living things around them, they can use this energy to power up their own abilities and use them as they please. Essentially Life Energy abilities are abilities that are created through the use of the body or touch.
Magic: People with this Skill are born with a special organ simply known as a Magic Organ. This organ disperses magical energy throughout a person’s body, allowing them to use their Magical Powers. These types of powers can vary in what they do, they could be used to summon actual beings or just use abilities that would seem impossible to the world of logic.
PSI: People born with this skill have increased mental power and are born with the ability to create what is in their minds. By imagining their ability and what they want to use it for they can create and materialize their ability into the physical world. This powers can range from simple psychic powers to even creating illusions and teleporting.
There are some abilities that can be seen in all three fields though, such as elemental abilities which can be used by anyone with either type of Skill, though in how they are summoned varies depending on said skill.

THE WORLD
Earth in this RP has been reshaped completely, countries have fused, others have sunk or vanished and others have even combined. Now the world humans live in is divided into four main continents known simply as North, South, West and East continent respectively with some other areas around the oceans that surround these continents.
Each continent has a variety of cities and countries to its disposal while also having its own main culture and even a merge of different cultures all together.
I won’t exactly be revealing any cities or anything to keep watch for each continent aside from the one the RP is going to be taking place in, you’ll be allowed to great your own cities or towns or environments or whatever if you so want to, though with some basic explanation as for each continent.
The North Continent has a culture that merge the American side of western culture while also merging some aspects of Asian culture to it. It also has some minor aspects of European countries in regards to its valleys and sceneries.
The West Continent implements North American culture along with the United Kingdom, having a lot of cities, landmarks and such inspired or that resemble the old world’s respective culture such as the famous West Continent city of Neo Vegas
The South Continent is very much like the North one except it implements a more South American feeling to it along with a more ancient feeling to it, having a lot of cities or towns that are still unhabitted. It also features more eastern European traits.
Lastly the East Continent combines Arabic environments and cultures along with Asian and European. It is a continent dominated mostly be deserts as opposed to a variety of environments like the other continents do. It is also a continent subjected to many feuds and wars as a lot of countries from other continents wish to claim the resources that can be found here.
The main setting for this will be simple though. The story will take place in Central City in the North Continent, one of the biggest and advanced cities in the world. Our characters will be college students and maybe even adults that will band together to form their own Bounty Hunter guild. They will have to take on different missions of varying difficulties and rewards as well as face off against creatures or enemies the never dreamed of.
Regardless of that I do want to keep a more realistic kind of feel, not to say some fantasy won’t be incorporated either.

RULES
All of the rules for the RP section from the current ones to any future ones stand.
No godmodding. Don’t make your character the master of the universe or give him or her some kind of unbeatable perfect ability or make a character that’s perfect in and of itself oh and put corn in your sign up.
No tennising, bunnying or flaming. On that subject if you have anything that you feel like you have to discuss with someone then take it to PMs.
What I say is law, meaning that you shouldn’t argue against my word. If I see you’re doing something I don’t agree with and tell you to fix it then please do.
Also keep in mind I can reject a sign up or ask for something to be fixed even if that sign up covers everything that is asked, so be on your toes.

Other: optional
Name: Kaito (He prefers to be called Kai)
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Orientation: Straight
Appearance: Kaito has long crimson red hair that goes down pass his neck with bangs that fall over his forehead. He has sky blue eyes and white skin. He has soft features which causes him to look a bit feminine, something that annoys him. He has an athletic built along with multiple scars all over his body as well as a crimson colored tattoo resembling a large eye on the upper part of his hand.
He wears different styles of clothing all around but prefers to always have a jacket on him and has a strong liking for jeans. Kai might not act like it but he actually does feel insecure for what people think of what he wears and never knows if what he’s wearing really makes him look good or not.
Personality: Kai is rebellious, violent and very volatile. He can be a bit selfish since he usually only sees things in the sense of what he wants and how it can help him. He’s very quick to action, acting without anyone’s consent and just generally doing what he wants.
He also tries to make himself seem bigger than what he is, though it’s mostly cause of how confident he is of himself and his abilities. Regardless he also has a good head on his shoulder and while he is quick to act he’s also able to think things through while he’s acting.
Background: to be revealed in the RP
Skill: Life Energy
Ability: Kai’s ability allows him to control metal and anything that has a metallic substance in it. With this he can do multiple things such as controlling the iron in his skin to make it as hard as iron or grab metallic objects and reshape them into whatever he wants. Of course using this power too much can take a toll on him and while he can reshape and increase the metallic particles in something this can also come back to bite him since the less metallic particles in something the less time it’ll be in the shape or form Kai wishes.
Talent: Kai has developed his own fighting style from all his years of fighting in the streets, he’s also had training in order to sense people’s presence and control his energy so that he can use it to its fullest.
Lastly, and while he likes to keep this particular talent a secret, Kai is actually a pretty good artist and singer
Other: Kai has a certain interest for knitting but he’s not able to realize how bad he is at it. He also carries a floating skateboard on his back that his father created.
