Spoiler warning! This RP takes place right after the events of Mother 3 and mentions what happens at the conclusion of the game, if that does not bother you than read on! (The name Mother 4 is already in use by a different fan made game.)

During the adventures of Lucas, it is discovered that the world ended somehow. Onett, Summers and many other familiar locations ceased to exist with the exception of one special place, The Nowhere islands. After overcoming many difficult challenges, Lucas released an ancient and unbelievable power into the universe. Legends state that this great power could destroy all remaining life or empower and renew it. When the final seal is eventually undone, everything goes dark! (this is where Mother 3 ends)

And just like that, the earth is restored back to a previous state! However, world peace does not come so easily and within moments there is an alien invasion! It turns out that humanity and technology were not to blame for the destruction of the planet but that evil aliens were behind the original devastation and made it appear as though humans had done it to themselves! (for unknown reasons) Years ago, Gigyas’s attempt had been thwarted so now his family (alien relations?) and their minions have returned in order to finish the annihilation of earth! Thanks to Lucas having a good heart though, countless living things were revived including some users of PSI. (or magic) Anyone willing to stand up for freedom now has a second chance to put right what once went wrong and send the unwelcomed guests packing!


Rules
You may play in whichever area you feel most comfortable in, The Nowhere Islands from Mother 3 currently coexist with the places found in Earthbound. (Eagle land, Winters, Dalaam, etc.)
Since late comers were allowed in the games, I think that sign ups will likely stay open all of the time.

While the main goal is to defeat the hostile aliens, there are several small objectives that each character may want to tackle first:
1. Learn about the invasion. (this can be done in a dream or other way)
2. Power up your hero. (by fighting weaker enemies and things like that)
3. Gather clues. (anything that could lead to the evil alien leaders)
4. Help civilians and or local wildlife

Of course with this being a game based off of Mother, there is a lot of creative freedom allowed and players do not have to follow the list at all. As long as no one is going overboard with instant unexplainable god like power then pretty much anything goes.
Players can team up at any time or if you prefer, go solo.

Monsters, locations and abilities may be made up but new areas must be connected in some way to an existing place from either Earthbound Zero, Earthbound or Mother 3.
One thing about enemies is that the strongest ones in this RPG will come from the pool of end game monsters from Earthbound (Octobots, Starmen, Atomic robots, etc.) or be variations on them.

Knowledge of the Mother games is not necessarily required, if you are willing to fight strange creatures and bad aliens then you can probably just wing it. (if all else fails than there is always Youtube)
Main canon characters cannot be used specifically but most minor ones can.

Hop to it earthlings, the Fuzzy pickles are counting on you!

I want a reserve, this is a great idea!
 
Name: Elton Near
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Appearance: Elton is a big fan of the whole hockey mask fad that swept Eagleland a while back, and still wears one. However, people thought he was a serial killer, so he wears it on the side of his head, like a lopsided hat, covering one of his dark brown eyes. Also, as a result of his Nyan Training, he has a pair of kitty ears sprouting from his longish black hair, though only one is visible. As is typical of most residents of Dalaam, he has olive colored skin. He dresses in the clothes required of practitioners of Nyan: A white button shirt, and black slacks, with a belt that has a kitty belt buckle denoting his rank in Nyan. His buckle is Copper.
History: Elton is of Dalaam descent. However, he was born and raised in Threed, Eagleland. There, he practiced Nyan, a western sect of the Mu religion. His parents were monks of it, and ran the church in Threed. He served their pancake breakfasts, and became a master chef. He now intends to use his cooking skills to battle the aliens.
PSI user?: Nope
Special talent: Nyan Cooking: Elton can cook really good food. So good that it heals his allies, or incorporate it into attacks, such as drinking salsa so he can breathe fire, or stabbing aliens with popsicles.
Favorite game on a Nintendo system: Pokemon Emerald
Best stat: HP

Meditating in front of the tv, that sounds like my kind of religion!
Elton Near, Approved!

And while I'm here,

Name: Dan
Age: 26
Gender: Boy
Appearance: Dan is a healthy shade of tan and probably just short of around 6 feet tall. He wears some khaki shorts with a black and white Scott Pilgrim T-shirt. His hair is short, spikey and black and he also has a pair of cool dark colored tennis shoes.

History: Dan was born and raised in High Five Town, located in Eagle land not far from Fourside. Even though the residents have modern devices and such, the town maintains a sort of old time western look. Locals insist that there is no gold or hidden valuables inside of the nearby caves and caverns but the town attracts treasure hunters and archeologists all the same.
High Five town does have a rather impressive museum that dwarfs even the one in Fourside and that tends to encourage people to visit as well. Dan helps out in the town museum every now and then. Being around so many interesting artifacts all of the time leads him to eventually pick up photography as a sort of hobby/ job. When the world miraculously came back to life, Dan got an ominous feeling that something strange was going on. He then noticed that once peaceful animals had begun acting aggressive and violent. What was going on here?!

PSI user?: Yes
Special talent: None

Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance: Lahia is 5'5' tall with a fair skin. Her eye color is lavender and is blond. Her hair is long and she has a side fringe at the side of her face. She is also slim. This gives her an innocent look despite being a little far from it. She likes to wear plain t-shirts, buttoned shirts and jeans.
History: Lahia is a city girl from Fourside. She likes tricks and messing with people but she is just doing for fun and won't seriously hurt anyone with it. While she discovered that she can use PSI at an early age she didn't really care and mostly only used it for mundane stuffs. She was living a pretty much normal life until of aliens were causing chaos. She decided to do something about it after they started to invade the second time.

Great, it looks like we have enough people to start! Sign ups will stay open and I will post the story thread sometime tomorrow or the day after! (altough it is not required, you may want to begin thinking about what kind of weapon(s) your person uses and what stronger versions of it could be found later on in the game. Kudos to Pi face for being the first one to be armed!)

I think you might need to notify everyone who joined that the RP started.
 
Even though the world might be coming to an end, I think that this Sign up thread will still stay open.
 
Name: Eldritch Necatare
Age: Looks like he's 14. In reality, he's a couple hundred years old.
Gender: Male
Appearance: Eldritch actually looks like a normal human, if kinda emo. He usually wears a black t-shirt with an upside-down green triangle in it, with another, right-side up black triangle inside of that one. Under that shirt, he wears a long-sleeved, blue and black striped shirt. As far as pants, he wears black jeans. He wears combat boots on his feet. The only things that betray the fact that he's not human are his red eyes and the fact that his long, black hair has red highlights.
History: Eldritch is actually the rebellious nephew of Giygas. He's rebelling because he's mad that his parents grounded him when he wouldn't kill a kitten. They took away his laser sword for three hundred years, and wouldn't let him play any video games! So he's going to get back at them by thwarting their evil plans.
PSI user?: Nope
Special talent: Eldritch has access to two bits of alien technology: He has an energy sword. It's basically a lightsaber. He also has what looks like a phone booth. In reality, it's a teleportation device. Finally, he can sometimes convince monsters to help him out.
Favorite game on a Nintendo system: That's So Raven! The GBA game.
Best stat: Offense
 
He looks ok except that his teleporting phone booth would have to be unlocked over time.
Eldritch Necatare, Approved!
