Story
In the year 2022 the nations changed and shifted much like the daily struggle of the skies and earth. On both sides -- The New world order led by the united states and the Global Freedom Force led by Russia had tore at the countries around them some time before one finally declaring war against the other. It is unclear who started the war, but the lands getting publicly ravaged by the Nations stubborn attacks are Canada, China, and Europe in-between. The pressure from the 4 continents collide left Africa with few battle scars, Australia and Antarctica with a 0 immigration policy. Europe countries of Blue and Red seemed to have evacuated all their citizens from the cross fire -- yet the same kindness was not offered to the neutral areas in Europe; France, Ukraine, Belarus, Bulgaria and Portugal. Which remained on their own accord to defend themselves and their land from either side. The same is true for Central America and most of Middle Africa.
The brutal warfare spanned from dog fights with drones to defensive tactical nuclear warfare-- Yet the soldiers fighting were not skimped of their share of battle equipment. A thick hearty armor encased all of the soldiers on both sides. Those who had thrown away their humanity and become androids for the purpose of battle. The suits and modified bodies withstood most treacherous tasks for men of any size, being able to lift heavy weapons with ease and calculate equations close to that of dedicated computers. Technology took a bleak turn in the wrong direction once more. As manufactures produced for the only purpose of hate, spite and greed. Each side was just as unbearable to look at then the other-- both sides had truly given up the hope of their citizens and the beauty of the land that they scarred everyday. The conflict has pushed scientists in Neutral zones to defend their research and hold out on their own terms.
Yet, there were men who wished for the true wonders of nature and the advanced scientific mind of humans and the potential of their creations could be preserved. In Marseilles, France-- A doctor especially guilty of abandoning his country for this purpose was Dr.Jour, The head of Horizon Corporation (of) Intellectual Minds. Both the New World and Freedom Force knew of Dr.Jour and his experts in metaphysical cyber metamorphosis. His close friends knew his passion of the youth and how he could make them smile. His purpose, he believed-- was to open the eyes of the people who fought each other. Dr.Jour's carefree and peaceful banter was an insult to the minds that craved his research and technology. Both forces had readily approached Dr.Jour's estate and attempted to kidnap him for their own uses of cyber space warfare -- both sides had been cursed to find not the doctor, but each other. The warfare that opened over Marseilles was great and terrible- Leaving the Doctors compound and the surrounding area bitter with the rattle of gun fire and the collapsing of buildings.
As the two sides pushed deeper into France, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Montpelier would be captured by the Freedom force where Marseilles, Lyon, Lorraine and the Champagne Ardenne would be on the verge of capture from the New World. France was being eaten alive- And Dr.Jour knew this all to to well. Dr.Jour had planned around this event and escaped to the heart of France, Paris. The Doctor's research had fell onto sacred territory that no other human knew possible. He had engineered an invention to protect France and bring change to stop the war. His passion was so intense-- The man sacrificed himself to jump start the great cataclysm of the invention. His brilliant mind had found a way to render to flesh and bone the characters of warring video games -- Those used to the conflict that plaques the world-- and have them fight to extinguish the ill minds in the world that wish other people to suffer. Within a matter of seconds the ground shook-- The Horizon Headquarters quaking in a belligerent jest to match the struggles on the ground - A loud ring to emulate the deafening of the horrors of those in the air - paired with a flash of bright light and a physical force that would punish the soldiers of both sides outside the borders of France.
Soldiers would be flung from the heart of France towards the out borders, and those at the epicenter were certain dead if their landing was solid. A dim light would breach upwards in a dome around France and protect it from the entrance of either side. All naturally born French citizens would be unfazed, and look up towards the dome in the sky that kept them safe as a cradle. The Technological mind of Dr.Jour had created a barrier that, with cyber space and data, brought to life various characters from Video games inside of the barrier. Soldiers on the outside look inward and squint their eyes, the bright light fading only to reveal that France had remained untouched and reinforced by strange soldiers from another world. Ones that could easily and quickly chop threw the men's bulky armor and ones that flung fire at insane degrees to protect the borders of France. The characters and the french citizens grew to a quick liking to each other -- The french seeing it only fit that the characters be allies as opposed to shunned from France.
Very soon after these events-- More characters had seeped threw-- The population of France grew small amounts from the surrounding nations Ukraine, Belarus, Bulgaria and Portugal as the force field seemed to welcome and warm these neutral areas as well. France has become the last frontier of Europe's Neutrality front and has also become the city with the most aggression towards because of the other worldly characters from inside. Seemingly, Characters are free to enter and leave the force field as if they were neutrality citizens-- and all the characters seem to appear inside the Horizon Headquarters Top floor Starbucks where Dr.Jour had been in his last moments.
It has been 3 months since these events and there has been a change of events from most of the african neutral areas as well as Australia. It seems Australia has opened their ports for only official french crafts and mobiles to enter. Neutral counties of Middle Africa have risked their resources and greatest minds to get both into france's safe borders. Leaving the Two Sides in drastically heated combat focused in the neutral territories. The only fabric of legacy left behind by Dr.Jour was his research in bulk. The aggression against the Neutral areas of Europe have because of Dr.Jour's ultimatum; With only his assistants left to deal with the characters and any further action. The assistants ultimately decided they need to get a team of characters together, sneak into the other 4 European neutral countries and spark hope within their society to pull together an empire!
Additional Info
So- Let me be the first to welcome you into the fight for the future as a video game character. Wether good, evil or neutral-- Characters are being spawned in from within France's Borders and causing controversy. Where as all of France is the safe zone for most characters as the French citizens have no problem with the characters-- Immigrants from around Europe and Africa have snuck into the heavily monitored Nation of France. Outside the barrier is a terrible war on world conflict levels-- Your Character can embrace conflict and fight out against heavily armed humans for either of the 3 sides or set off on a journey of their own to find out the true nature of their summoning.
-Those who leave France should know this about the areas around them-
Blue-The New World Order Generally dislike the characters due to their spontaneous nature & being a product of the late Dr.Jour. Blue is heavily armed with hardened manufactured solids. Sticking to a quick and strategical end.
Red-The Global Freedom Force tend to embrace characters yet not grant them the same rights as Humans as they were created by man. Red's prefer to make battles an art of war and tend to use robots to combat characters. Modified infantry for others.
Green- Neutral Zones are accepting of the characters and will tend to offer their help the best they can. Yet some Greens can become hostile if instigated- Greens view you as their equal, not their superior. Green's tend to fight with Characters and haven't the brute industrial weapons or electromagnetic knowledge of either side.
We are in France, The Final Frontier. You may wonder outside, you may travel however your character feels. Traveling outside into the grey areas will lead to some complications with your character and the citizens of other nations. Characters are spawned with everything on their person yet nothing that exceeds what they would normally be able to carry. (doom pls). All characters are spawned in the starbucks on the top floor of the horizon headquarters where Dr.Jour had died.
((TL;DR Version:USA and Russia are jerks and started WWWIII. France is the Final Frontier cause science. Science is boy wonder and moves to gather an empire of video game characters to stop the killing. ))
Rules - FAQ
1. One character per person. This is important since we'll be interacting with each other, however there may be exceptions. In fact, if you so wish, you can have a supporting character that is purely for the sake of advancing the RP. For instance, if you are worried that the player you are partnered up with will be inactive, you are free to create another character, but you MUST SUBMIT AN APP.
2. If you address another character, make sure to notify who is speaking by following this format:
Code:
[COLOR="#000000"][b]Location - ((@PlayerName))[/b]
[i]Body[/i][/COLOR]
3. Absolutely no racism, no argumentative drama, and no negativity toward others. These won't be allowed. A little romance is fine, arguments between the characters and not the users is okay, and jokes displayed from characters will be accepted.
4. Do not overpower your character. There are some who are godly, but this is an RP so make it as fair as possible. It doesn't limit your choice; just don't make your character invincible, as every meaningful character must be flawed.
5. Stay with the story. Don't make it turn to your own direction because it sets everyone off. I shall direct the story, but if you feel you have an amazing idea where the story can lead to then please PM me with it.
6. If you wish to discuss the RP or to debate on an action with a few other players, please do it in the OOC board. OOC debates in the IC thread is not recommended, so bring it here.
7. If something doesn't go your way or you feel something is unfair, please notify one of the Game Masters. This includes things like if you wish to change your character or if you want your recent one die off.
8. By contributing to this RP with your application, you agree to be active enough to reply in a timely manner.
9. Your character must originate from a videogame, not a comicbook, movie, or book that received a videogame.
10. Rules are subject to change at any time.
11. Any argument can and will be settled by discussion and not using the RP.
12. Do not powergame. Your characters have limits, as does the patience of other players.
13. Do not mention Iceland or Greenland.
