You always think it’d be so cool to be that one guy picked out to be the hero. I didn’t even get that. There were six of us, and we all swore never to tell what really happened, but its time it came to light. We were all normal teens. The only thing that connected us at first was we all attended the same high school. We were all different people. Some of us hadn’t even talked to each other before. Then some how we were all there when the first gateway opened. It was late at night out at the edge of town, and this massive creature stepped out, and from there its history. That’s what we’re here to tell though. To tell you about the shit that went down in the small town of Brighton Vermont.

Plot: The RP would be the actual events of the past. The six teens who are involved eventually are sucked into the gateway then spat back out very changed. The RP will start with the next morning. We all got home, and then we’ve got school in the morning. Now those changes you received re a small set of super powers. You get 4 skills, in the style of a MOBA, with 3 normal skills and an ultimate. These skills should be similar in design/theme. That thing we saw we a demon from the nether realm, and they are the main antagonist of course. Some are simple mindless beasts, but others are cunning and brilliant. Obviously the teens are the only ones equipped for dealing with them, so eventually they need to learn how to work together, and how to beat the demons.

SU format:

It’s a bit odd, but it’s a mix of the RP example and your character making skills. Since this is a retelling you are to write your SU as your character talking about themselves in the past. Follow up with a photo, why they were at the first portal, and then end with the needed list of info. After that you got the 4 skills.

You remember that kid you never knew in high school… well obviously no. Well I’m that guy. Nobody knows me, and I like it that way. I’m ok in the background and alone. Quite and defensive. I prefer my own way, and my own life. I will defend my way to my last breath, but.. I guess some people do know me and are ok with it. Five of them in fact. To them I’m Shade, the most ninja kid you’ll ever meet.

As Shade I still kept to the shadows, and I kept my name hidden for the longest time. I just didn’t want to let them in, and then I knew that even I needed help. Then again my powers were just that. I had this ghostly spirit who followed me around. He was old and wise, and was one of the few good things to come out of a portal. Spectrum was his name. He was living shadows, and he was my partner in it all.

Shade and Spectrum join the team against Demons of Decay, coming to an RP forum near you.

I was just coming home from the bookstore that night. I spent hours there usually since I didn’t have the money to buy anything, but wanted to read. Home was ok, and I hid there too. My parents had accepted my loner nature. We lived outside of town, so I biked everywhere. I had one of those normal bikes with the electric motor that you charge up by peddling. It made getting home easier. I don’t know what drew me out there, but I knew there was something out there in the woods that night. I ditched my bike and locked it to a tree. I ran deep into the woods my excellent night vision letting me maneuver the forest. I soon began to see a faint red glow off in the distance. I drew closer until I saw it. The portal, but at the time I didn’t know. Something was coming out of the light. It was huge and black, and you could feel the energy flowing off it, but then it seemed to be pulled back into the glowing light. There was a massive roar and the light collapsed exploding and leveling nearby trees. I was still over thirty yards off and I was knocked off my feet. I ran for my bike and hurried home not sure what I had seen.

Their is a theory called the Butterfly Effect... It's a rather simple theory that holds a lot of truth, and is a truly elegant metaphor. The Butterfly Effect states the simple flap of a butterfly's wings, can create a ripple effect through out it's environment, creating a gradual change that will ultimately change it for the better or for the worse... Although... In My Opinion... There are rare instances where the flap of a Butterfly's wings can change every single thing in an instant, shaking the fragile bonds of what is perceived as reality to it's very core. The only reason I have ever come to this very conclusion is the spontaneous and seemingly random event that had changed the entire course of my destiny forever.

My life was a simple if not tedious existence... My father had left when I was young boy. So long ago, that the reach of my memory can't extend far enough to remember his very appearance. My mother, being only a college drop out, had to work 2 jobs at once to pay the bills. Ever since I could remember, I was always alone. I simply entertained myself, by reading through books rather frantically, picking up complex novels by the age of 8, simply because I read through books meant for my age group with in the blink of an eye. Along with my burning passion for reading, I had also always had a love for puzzles, completing jig saw puzzles and riddles until the point where my mind could solve them with very little trouble.

My thirst for knowledge to ease my boredom was always evident in my schoolwork, alway receiving high praise from my teachers. Save for my math classes, I had never received anything lower then an A- in my living memory. My ease with my subjects, along with my thirst for knowledge had eventually caught the attention of my school councilors, who had skip the 7th and 8th Grades and head straight to ninth, saying that I was a boarder line boy genius.

I had passed through my first 2 years of high school with very little problems in terms of my studies... But I was always infuriated by my peers. In their eyes, I was always nothing but a child... Only ever talked to help with school work before being placed aside to, and almost like an adult trying to keep a little out of the way, was metaphorically set in a play pen... Because of my knowledge and independence, I always wanted to seen as an equal, a mature young adult. And despite acting much more refined then most of the idiots I had attended school with, I was always treated no more then a child playing pretend.

Now in my Junior Year of High School, at the age of 14. I ran an errand for my mother, who was working a nightshift at the local diner. I was asked to pick up some milk, meats, and vegetables for the next few meals that I would prepare. But on my way home from the local market. Something super natural, like something from the depths of a twisted imagination, happened. A portal from what could be another world opened, as a black silhouette rose from its depths. Before I could even begin to ponder the nature of this occurrence, the portal collapsed upon itself, releasing a shock wave through out the area. Despite being quite a distance away, the force was still strong enough to knock me off my feet. Unable to wrap my mind around what had just happened, I quickly ran home, my slightly damaged groceries in hand, and for the first time in my life, I was truly stumped on how something like this could occur.

Later, I would be attacked by a thug, attempting to get his hands on any cash I had on my person... He was about to start beating me when something almost as supernatural as the night before happened. A pair of silver colored pistols appeared in my hands, and started to act on their own accord to fight off the thug. They didn't shoot ordinary bulletts either... They shot balls of fire, and it never ran out of ammunition. Through some unusual occurrence, their name just echoed in my mind. Fenrir. It was from that day on, my life would never be the same.

Name: William "Will" Clover
Age: 14
Gender: Male

Appearance:
571129-9b538b52e6f8b874451378ab400d.jpg

Skills:

1. Chamber Shot: Will fires a small fire ball from one of his guns. Each Gun can fire 1 Fire ball, in 1 second intervals, allowing for rather rapid fire shooting.

2: Muzzle Filter: Will flings one of his guns like a boomerang, as it fires fire balls in rapid succession before being caught after 6 seconds airborne

3: Silencer: Will thrusts the muzzle of one of his guns into a single foe, before pulling the trigger. A close range fire attack is unleashed, blasting the foe several feet away with tremendous force.

4: Bullet Storm: Both guns form together to form a large Machine Gun. It can fire about 10 fireballs, a second, and takes this form for about 8 seconds before transforming back into the dual pistol form.

*flips table* upstaged in my own RP you're in...

Sorry, I just wanted to include some background info on Will's personality and history before I actually got him witnessing the opening of I'm presuming the underworld. I didn't mean to create something that long originally.
 
trust me its great just unexpected.
 
trust me its great just unexpected.

That's great! I just sorta got into character, and tried to think how Will would think. Before I knew it, my fingers started to type on their own.
 
Well considering there only three of us. Calvin is on his way with an app. I may have to reduce the characters int he plot. Its a bit of a let down, but I'd rather drop it to four and just make a 2nd character then drop the RP.
 
They say that spirits exist on an entirely different plane than us, and it's impossible for us to come into contact with one another. I disagree, as not only have I seen them, I've talked to them. How, you ask, is that possible? One can train their mind's eye to see the inhabitants of the spectral plane as if they were in ours. That is what I have done, through years of meditation. I chose my spiritual life to avoid the drama associated with social conventions. Thus, I am known in my school as a crazy ghost lady. Not that I care. I've been rejected from all circles due to my spiritual habits, despite having tried hard to blend in. Nowadays, I've stopped caring. I am who I am, and I don't care who disapproves.

Now, I've always been interested in the supernatural, so most things don't faze me. One night, I was out walking, talking to my friends in the spectral plane, when I felt a disturbance. I saw a rip in the fabric of our plane, or as some would call it, a portal or rift. I went to investigate, feeling a strange force beckoning me, compelling me to go closer. I felt it before I saw it; a large, black silhouette-like entity whose very presence overload my mind and forced me to turn off my spiritual sense, lest I get a headache or worse. I had never felt anything like this before, and it scared me. For once, a supernatural phenomenon scared me! The sheer realization of my fear scared me even more. I was compelled to run, but my feet were bolted to the spot. I began to hope this was a nightmare, and that I'd soon awaken. Just then, the portal collapsed, releasing a huge shock wave through the area. I was knocked back about twenty feet, and landed hard on my back. I'd definitely feel that in the morning. I pulled myself up, looking to where the portal was, and saw nothing. I felt nothing. Where had it gone? What was it? I must have been sleep-deprived or something. I quickly gathered myself and headed home as my mind raced nonstop about this.

Name: Jada Cofield
Age: 17
Appearance: Jada is rather tall at 5'11", and has a rather athletic build. Her hair is long and black, a contrast to her pale skin. Her eyes are dark brown, almost black. She has a preference for wearing skintight t-shirts and pants, and is often barefoot. She tends to wear homemade charms on her wrists, and often has a large shoulder bag, which has all of her stuff in it.
Skills:
1. Sense Move: Jada is alerted of an incoming attack by her senses, and can use an evasive maneuver. In some cases, she can counterattack with a fully charged aura bolt.
2. Aura Bolt: Jada can charge up spiritual energy and use it as a projectile attack that follows the target's aura.
3. Entangler: Jada launches a bolt of spiritual energy that travels straight. On impact, it explodes into dozens of tiny particles that chase their target. When they hit, they spread and harden into a shell, eventually petrifying the target and leaving them vulnerable.
4. Heaven's Justice: Jada fires a ball of spiritual energy into the air, where it explodes into hundreds of comets. The comets all fall within a 20 foot radius, deliver massive damage to whatever they hit.

bit more of a downside on the ult would be nice. Mine is kill one I'm out. Naoto's is just a weapon. yours is dimensional tearing...

otherwise perfect.

So now we have the loner, the smart one, and the hippie indian person. If we don't get any more I'll put together another character, and you two are welcome since that'd fill out the 6 spots. otherwise 4 will do.

EDIT: actually looking at the skills I don't quite see the connection/theme. Mines darkness Naoto has gun skills. whats yours?
 
Alright, so's I'm heading home from the burger shop, right? Just a late night snack. I call it Dinfast, because it's between dinner and breakfast. But anyway, so I'm heading home - I'm technically not supposed to be out this late - and I decide to cut through the woods. They're creepy as hell at night, but y'know, I'm not too scared, because I got a toy with my burger, and it's a Backstreet Boys action figure. And nobody messes with the Backstreet Boys.

So I'm in these woods, and I see this thingy in the air. it's hard to describe. Like, if some dude took a knife out and sliced the air open, and on the other end was just space, I think that's kinda what it's like. So I decide to check it out, because, what if it leads to some kinda cool alternate universe like in some anime? And there's this black man. Not like Samuel Jackson, but like that one boss in Kingdom Hearts. So I'm thinking I'll get a keyblade. So I take out my action figure, and I run at it to stab it. But that was a bad idea, because it blew up in my face. Like, literally, the thing exploded. And I think I passed out.

Luckily, it was only a few hours later that I woke up, so I had time to get back home and in bed before the sun rose. I mean, I'm 17, but my parents still want me to get to bed at a decent hour because they're kinda fascists. Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em, know? So anyway, I get up, and when I go to make my coffee, the machine explodes and catches fire. That doesn't normally happen, but, y'know, I figure maybe it just broke. But all day, I'm touching electronics, and they're blowing up. Luckily I realized it before I touched my DS. So I realize, maybe I'm a saiyan now? And so when I got home, I went into my back yard, I started striking poses and screaming. And lo and behold, I accidentally shoot a bolt of lightning at the neighbor's house. I denied all responsibility, of course. Most houses are insured against lightning strikes, right?

Name: Rondo McDougal
Appearance: Rondo has somewhat long curly red hair, and very pale skin, almost totally white. Despite eating a lot, he's fairly thin, probably because of all the time he spends playing DDR. As far as clothes, he tends to wear a yellow shirt over a yellow-and-red striped sweater. He typically wears jeans as pants, and carries a portable gaming system with him most places.
Age: 17
Gender: Male


Skills:

1. Kaminariken: Rondo channels electricity through a flashlight he carries. It forms into a blue laser sword. It burns through most materials faster than any sword can cut.
2. Lightning Speed: Rondo's powers have increased his speed and reflexes drastically, making him amazingly agile.
3. Ball Lightning: Rondo forms a ball of electricty in his hand and fires it at his foe.
4. Arc Shooter: Rondo thrusts his hand into the sky, and calls down a bolt of lightning. The bolt strikes him, and it seriously hurts. But in exchange, he gets a bow in his hand. He can then shoot bolts of lightning from it. He gets six shots with it, and after using it, he is unable to use any of his powers until he rests for a while.

I'll work on another one. I honestly can't help but realize were missing the ever so needed healer, and I feel like we need a character to liven up the group because most of them are kinda gloomy in nature. So here goes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was always the girl everyone admired. People always said I was pretty, I was smart, and even said I was kind hearted. I honestly never saw such qualities in myself. All I ever saw in myself was someone who simply tried their best to make people smile. I never given much thought to what I wanted to do with my life, but I always knew that I enjoyed making people smile, and hearing them say "Thank you." If you asked me, their was no better feeling in the world. I simply got above average grades in school, but that was only because I tried hard, nothing special. I wasn't insanely smart, like a 14 year old Junior who rumor said was a boy genius. I simply just wanted to get through life, helping others and making sure I tried my best in everything I did. If people hated me or loved me for it. It didn't make any difference.

However... I never really expected to be apart of something so strange, or even out of the ordinary. I was such an average girl who never gave much thought to the supernatural, but one day, after returning home from a part time job as waitress over at a 4 star restaurant. I witnessed something that could've come from a Sci Fi, or Horror Movie. Would looked like a tear in space appeared, like a portal to another world or something. Before I could see what was inside, or call for help, it snapped shut and released a shockwave so strong, it knocked me off my feet when I several city blocks away. After awhile, I noticed some strange things. For instance, when ever I focused hard enough, things would burst into flames. Finally, I knew something was different about me when my dog had gotten a nasty gash on one of the bushes in my backyard. No body was home but me, and he was to big for me to carry to the vet. But when I went to examine his wound, my hand started to glow with a weird green light, and his wound started to heal in seconds, before looking several weeks old. I'm still not sure why I was given these powers, but I have to do something with them... Right?

Name: Noel Rose
Age: 16
Gender: Female

Appearance: Noel stands at 5 foot 3, and weighs 102 lbs. She'sl rather petite and thin, having a rather small bosom compared to other girls her age. Noel has shoulder length auburn colored hair with long bangs, and large bright blue eyes. Her skin is a pale olive color, and its nice and smooth without a single blemish. Noel typically wears a white long sleeved button up shirt, with a black ruffled mini skirt, and black knee socks. The outfit is usually completed with a red ribbon tied into a bow under her shirt's collar and a pair of white sneakers.

Skills:

1. Refresh: Sakura bathes either herself or an ally in a green light, that heals minor wounds, and moderately eases pain. Can't be used again for a minute after first usage.
2. Blaze: Sakura casts a spell, that causes a small explosion of fire at the location Sakura's choosing. It explodes with a 2 foot radius, and it's maximum range is 20 feet. It's not a typical projectile where it travels from Sakura to her target, instead the explosion just occurs like spontaneous combustion.
3: Phoenix Heal: Sakura bathes an ally in a glow of crimson light, that heals critical wounds and internal injuries. Phoenix Heal is more powerful then Refresh, but it's incapable of healing Sakura.
4. Crimson Comet: Sakura performs a spell that creates a red fire ball, the size of Beach Ball. She then hurls it at her foe, as it explodes with a burst of fire, hitting nearby targets. It explodes with a 8 foot radies, and it's maximum range is 30 feet.
 
Thanks call. make sure to change entangler from dark energy then. Then your new ult I assume mostly random like PK starstorm?

Also HS you know you're forbade from my RPs, so don't post again. thank you. We can be civil about this.

Ok Naoto all good, just to balance your ult collateral damage will probably be involved.

I'll put up my 2nd character soon. We got stealth, healer, dps, mage, so I'll make the brawler.
 
You can't go wrong with either a speedy attacker or a berserker.
 
well mister Lucas Pike is going to be showing the correct way to prepare a knuckle sandwich.

No I don’t think I’m a tough guy I just look out for the little guys. Freshman year at high school is a hell that no one should have to deal with, so yeah I’d get tough for those kids. I was always the one to try and get the bullies off their backs even if it got me into trouble. Someone had to do it and the teachers were all blind. Well except one. I had a kick ass history teacher named Dr. Schneider who got me. He’d keep quite mostly, but he’d take me aside to make sure I knew that fighting wasn’t the best answer. At the time it was the only one though.

I was a bit of a punk, but it was just because rebellion was real truth to me. I lived it didn’t look it though. I kept the values with out the baggage. I’d say the majority of my views come from metal and rock. Be tough, be dark, and be real. None of this be perfect and popular bull. I’ll do what I gotta, and I’ll snap a neck before I give into the world. People get that and respect that, and if they don’t they fear it. I’m not sure I can say much more about myself, because honestly I don’t even know most of the time.

The one person I’d trust the most is my scout buddy Rick. He wasn’t in on the whole event, but he’s always had my back. He doesn’t need powers like us he’s supernatural as is. Always my eyes, and ears. Ricks practically a brother, and the only one who can make me back down out of a fight.

((Lucus left. Rick right))

I was out messing around in the woods that night. Over the years Rick and I had built up a fort in there, and I used it when I couldn’t stand to be home. It was just me and my Dad, and we were polar opposites. He was store owner in town and knowledgeable business man. I just liked hitting stuff and solving things that had to be solved immediately. Rick and I were out in the fort, and I was gonna go on a run to corner store to grab some food. Half way there I happened upon the portal, and went into look completely entranced. Of course then the thing exploded knocking me on my ass and pissing me off. I shrugged it off, went to the store, and returned with plenty of junk food.

Name: Lucas Pike
Age: 18
Gender: male


Skills:

1. Reverb: Lucas punches the enemy hard as he can and then is restored based on how hard he hit.
2. Dysfunctional pull: enemy projectiles are quickly redirected towards Lucas, and are now likely to miss or impact less.
3. Negate punch: Lucus strikes the enemy with enormous force not restrained by air resistince or friction.
4. Kinetic Reserection: Lucas goes into overdrive and is able to defy physics by now releasing more force than he takes in. This effect can only trigger when in mortal danger.

((this ult adds with all his minor powers. Reverb heals more, pull lets him get hit more to power up negative work.))
