PLOT | OP AND CO-OP | SETTING | LOCATIONS | RULES AND GUIDELINES | CAST BY CATEGORIES | APPLICATION FORMS






From Caesar's defeat by Celtic Super-king Eowyn and Marco Polo's discovery of the Philosopher's Stone - Sakuradite, to the betrayal of Earl Benjamin Franklin against Washington's Rebellion and the undeniable victory Napoleon had at Trafalgar that would send Queen Elizabeth III fleeing to the Americas; mankind has gone through long periods of turmoils, only to find more of them ahead.

The United Kingdom's fall and the the British Empire's retreat across the Atlantic Ocean alongside Europe's feudal nobility during the Grand Armée's advances throughout the continent paved the way for the creations of the corrupt decadent democracy that is the European Union, the resurgent bellicose imperialists that make up the Holy Britannian Empire, and the negligent stagnating monarchy presiding over the Chinese Federation. Britannia truly declared its dominance to the world in 2010 a.t.b. (or Revolutionary Year 221 according to EU calendar), when it conquered and established its grip upon Japan's Honshu island and several of its satellite islets.

But men wanted war. And it was war that they got. Within 3 days after Britannia mounted its largest full-scale invasion yet against "the world's largest stockpile of Sakuradite", the other two superpowers declared war against Britannia - or at least, whatever forces it had deployed and garrisoned in Japan.

It is 7 years since the Fall of Tokyo. Area 11 has formally been integrated into the Empire and large parts of its territory pacified, despite the Second Pacific War still raging on without any remarkable progress and an ever-increasing death toll. All the while, Britannia continues forward in order to confirm its superpower status, proven by the annexation of the Middle Eastern Federation, which was recently rechristened as "Area 18".

However, the death of largely incompetent Viceroy Clovis la Britannia, the unknown identity of the assassin and the promotion of an Euro Britannian General to the vacant post of Viceroy, might prove to be a change to the world.

Despite the new prospect... the Lost Requiem of Holy Angels continue to reverberate in Old Eden, forsaken by God. Perhaps there truly is no end to the senseless sacrifices...

Or is it...

Setting

Postby Gigaverse » Fri Oct 24, 2014 10:29 pm

As you probably haven't been told, "Lost Requiem" is an "Alternate History of the Alternate History" kind of RP, being based on the Anime Franchise Code Geass (the setting of this RP itself is built mainly according to the series, Lelouch of the Rebellion and its spin-off OVA collection, Akito the Exiled). For those who already knew about Code Geass, this Character RP mostly takes place around the Tokyo Settlement and Japan in general (and Character Development). Except...: Japan wasn't completely conquered without the other two powers becoming paranoid; technology progresses at a marginally faster rate; Lelouch was NOT responsible for the already-happening World War; Genbu Kururugi is alive; the Emperor of Japan and his family probably under the control of Clovis's ( :p ) replacement Viceroy - who, by all means, is not Cornelia; Spinzaku works for one of those resistance cells, having held back his resolve to kill his father; while Kallen is... Kallen.

For those who had made your way from the previous incarnation to this one, thank you for your steadfast loyalty to the RP.

For those who don't know what Code Geass is about (or heck, what Anime is about), but are at all interested: basically, Britannia = America + UK (sounds dreadfully familiar...), America is Britannian, Japan is Britannian, Russia is half-Britannian and half-French and Britain itself is French. If that's not getting to your head, feel free to read Code Geass Wiki, it has enough information to let you grasp the basics.

Rules and Guidelines

Postby Gigaverse » Fri Oct 24, 2014 10:30 pm

THE LIST OF COMMANDMENTS FOR ALL UNDER HEAVEN TO FOLLOW

  • You should have at least some knowledge of Code Geass lore. If you REALLY want to RP because you find the premise interesting, you're welcome to ask about anything to know what you're getting into.
  • I am love, I am life! Same for other Co-OPs! Not cooperating? *kicks*
  • With Code Geass' premise, the potential for Godmodding is close to limitless. So it's more important how you cooperate/cooperatively interact with other players in order to flesh out a good story.
  • Behave. The Mods still lurk these Threads occasionally.
  • Applying the three strike system implemented by unanimous voting of the OPC, all warnings and bans, whether "temporary" or "so banned it hurts", WILL be applied on all players to keep a semblance of order. We're not tight on rules, but we'll enforce them if push comes to shove.
  • NO MORE ASHFORD ACADEMY EXPLOSIONS OR MASSIVE INVASIONS WITH ENTIRE ARMIES WITHOUT APPROVAL OF AT LEAST 2 CO-OP'S.
  • Have fun! And remember not to take it away from others, or ELSE.
  • Be sure to put Kitten Pickle in your app's "Anything Else" section.

Canon Overarching Factions
In Canon, Factions make up of nations. And like real-life ones, Code Geass' nations have a fair share of sane people and legitimized

Holy Britannian Empire
Image

Capital: Pendragon, Homeland
Lingua Franca: English
National Anthem: All Hail Britannia
Government: Absolute Monarchy

"Death to Britannia!"
---The Mantra of almost any Japanese/Eleven in the series

"Not really my cup of tea."
---Diethard Ried

The only word that sums up everything: Social Darwinism. However, admittedly, in the setting, despite being the most racist of antagonists found, they are also the only ones who MAY genuinely care for the well-being of their civilians (the loyal ones, that is) on the widest scale, compared to their opponents (the European Union and the Chinese Federation). Analytically, they're also the most economically and technologically powerful (the same thing MAY be said for their military). Oh, and their society uses green energy extensively.

The Empire's society is highly stratified. Of notes are their insistence to stick to feudal hierarchy and chivalry. Administratively, outside the Homeland, there are the Areas, numbered by the time at which their conquests were accomplished; the Euro Britannian Empire, governed by a designated noble from Britannia, is excepted from this rule.

Sub-Factions

Postby Gigaverse » Fri Oct 24, 2014 10:31 pm

Application 1

Nation Name: The Holy Imperium of Man of Gigaverse
Character Name(s) and Aliases: S.S./Sebastian von Seckendorff/Lucius Kaiserberg/Shinji Sakahara (or Sakahara Shinji according to Japanese naming conventions)/Black Phantom of the Frontier/Phantom of the Operation/Europe's Blonde-haired Black Death/among others
Canon or Original: Original (actually dragged from my Project here)
Affiliation(s): Euro Britannia; Knights of Saint Gabriel; Area 11; Phantom Crusade (Himself)
Age: 28 (In Databases and Appearance), might as well have been Celtic Super-king Eowyn (Actual)
Rank|Occupation: Knight Marshal of the Knights of Saint Gabriel, General of Britannian Military, Viceroy of Holy Britannian Empire's Area 11, Commander of "Phantom Crusade" forces
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free)
Working for Euro Britannia (but substantially less so after becoming Viceroy), the pseudonym "Sebastian von Seckendorff" was but the well-known excuse of a name for the "Black Phantom of the Frontier", who delivered a Blitzkrieg in Siberia and was the ultimate architect in the successful Siege of Sankt Petersburg, having been able to capture the city with infrastructure mostly intact.

Having only spent a few days in Japan for "personal reasons", Sebastian was suddenly promoted to the post of Viceroy of Area 11 when Prince Clovis la Britannia was assassinated. Before then, Europe's Blonde-haired Black Death had made contact with several members of Britannia's Imperial Family present in Area 11, including Prince Lelouch vi Britannia.

Seems fully aware about the nature of Geass Order, and might have been (or still be) involved in its activities.
Weapons: A homemade Assault Rifle and two Katanas.
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Other): Has a Code; which means he's immortal and can issue you a Geass free of charge, if you interest him enough. Also, he's a strategist (because overwhelming firepower alone couldn't possibly conquer Siberia).
Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Tricycle/Whatever): Devicer of Phantom Crusade's commanding unit, Knightmare Frame "Mephistophiles" (In process of upgrade to Orpheus edition).
Appearance: Height - 197 cm, Race - Unknown, but perhaps Aryan
RP Example: OH NOES, GET ME A MENTOR!!! xo
Anything Else? Did you read the rules yet?

Application 2

Nation Name: The Holy Imperium of Man of Gigaverse
Character Name(s) and Aliases: Alexander Witte
Canon or Original: Original
Affiliation(s): Euro Britannia; Knights of Saint Gabriel; Area 11; Phantom Crusade (Himself)
Age: 30
Rank|Occupation: Head of Phantom Crusade's R&D Division; (newly-promoted) Head of the Knights of Saint Gabriel's R&D Division
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free)
Born a mollycoddled child in EU's British Isles, Alexander proved himself to be a child prodigy at an early age. Graduating Oxford University at middle-school age, he was, however, unappreciated by the EU. He grew up resenting that his intelligence could not be useful to anybody. When his family was accused of desiring a return to monarchy, their properties burnt down and his parents never seen again; after which point he was locked up within an EU state compound for some years.

At age 21, Witte was finally approached by a mysterious power, who offered to let him contribute into "the greater good of mankind". Intrigued, Alexander accepted the offer. With help, he escaped the EU's cage, setting himself free and fleeing the EU with utter resentment. Nowadays, hiding his somewhat contemptuous nature for his surroundings, Witte appears as a cheerful scientist whose everyday job is simply bringing about technological progress within the labs of Euro Britannia.

Is secretly cooperating with Knight Marshal Sebastian to work on a secretive project, related but not connected to "Code R".
Weapons: A custom pistol and an early prototype of Blaze Luminous, used for effective personal shielding.
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Other): A "Learn" Geass, allowing him to study technical matters through observation. He must, however, look at the practices, and not the theories, to be able to learn. The clearer his sight is at any given moment, the more he can learn.
Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Tricycle/Whatever): Has been known to hitch rides in Sebastian's Knightmare, Mephistophiles. He himself isn't so bad a Devicer.
Appearance: Imagine Lloyd if he was a centimeter taller, had brown hair, red eyes and black long-coat.
RP Example: Art thou jesting?
Anything Else? Kitten pickle!

Application 3

Nation Name: The Holy Imperium of Man of Gigaverse
Character Name(s) and Aliases: Vogelscheuche|Alissa ne Britannia
Canon or Original: Original
Affiliation(s): S.S. (Not Phantom Crusade, just S.S.)
Age: 12
Rank|Occupation: Assassin-not-really-for-Hire
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free)
Born to the same mother as Carine ne Britannia, Alissa had, since six years ago, been taken care of, raised and trained by a specific indigo-eyed, blonde-haired character; who she had grown attached to and considered more of a father figure than her own father Charles. Then, she had the fortune to observe Marianne on the day of her bloody murder; which happened to be her 5th birthday. Her mind became obsessed with the idea of wanting to revive the dead, for she considered Marianne a second mother.

Nowadays, she's 12. She runs as fast as a jackrabbit, can bloody murder you with a knife, and she also possesses a Geass.

Hint: she may or may not be a bastard child. "Bastard" as in the sense of "not one for Charles".
Weapons: Her "I-Call-It-The-Bloody-Murder" Knife; and an Automatic Machine-gun; you'd be surprised by how excellent she can wield it. Oh, and self-made bombs.
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Other): A Geass that reanimates the dead and uses them as puppets. She has to make eye-contact with the corpse, be within at most a kilometer from the corpse, can only reanimate a corpse once, can only reanimate a maximum of ten corpses at a time, can use each for only 24 hours, and can only reanimate any corpse within 48 hours after death.
Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Tricycle/Whatever): A Tricycle. If not, [ERROR: Character too small to actually drive.]
Appearance: There are bombs in those boxes of hearts.
RP Example: lolno
Anything Else? SS!

I endorse this thread!

Also, Lost Requiem is sort of a spin-off to the All Hail Britannia. Or at least that's how I understand it.

Giga, my app should be completed in a few hours.

Character Name(s) and Aliases: Alaric el Britannia/Alaric Schwartz
Canon or Original: Original
Affiliation(s): Holy Britannian Empire/Himself
Age: 25
Rank|Occupation: 5th Prince of Britannia/Brigadier
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free) Alaric was a loyal son of Britannia, eternally faithful to the ideas of Social Darwinism propagated by the Empire and that of the ideologies of Saint Darwin... Or at least that's what Alaric likes people to think. In reality Alaric could care less about the ideology followed by his father, only using it to his advance his own interest.

As a child Alaric was always the quiet child, he rarely spoke and on the rare occasions he does, it will only be if he was spoken to. He shared his Brother's love of chess and Strategy, and was on par with Lelouch in terms of Strategic and Tactical thinking, he was a born and bred player in the deadly decadent court of the Holy Britannian Empire.

At the young age of 14 he was sent to Benedict Arnold Military Academy, graduating at the top of his class in Military Strategy, Modern Warfare and Knightmare Warfare. When war broke out with the Britannian Invasion of Japan, Alaric was sent to the European Theater, leading Cornelia li Britannia's Invasion of the Iberian Peninsula. He and his unit; the 222nd Berkshire Light Foots served with distinction in the Mediterranean Theater, and briefly saw action in Africa with the Battle of the Suez Canal, the 222nd was deployed to Japan in preparation for the Britannian Invasion of East Asia proper.

Now in Japan, the Prince oversees the occupation of the Shijuku Ghetto for Prince Clovis, while simultaneously investigating his Brother's secretive "Project C"

Nation Name: Woodstovia
Character Name: Alexandria La Britannia
Affiliations: Holy Britannian Empire
Age: 19
Rank (If Military/Resistance): Lt. General, 7th Princess of the Holy Britannian Empire

Bio (includes Personality) Born into the imperial family in 1998 Alexandria fared much better than her male counterparts in Britannian court life. Although surrounded by other princes and princesses and constantly at danger of being forgotten, overshadowed or overlooked she managed to find a way to always be different and unique. (though this would also make her develop an obsession with getting attention).

At first this was being energetic and exciting in the drab and boring Britannian court and household, which was filled with boring, emotionless children. And then while most were going through a rebellious phase she was polite, sophisticated and reliable.

However when she began to enter her late teens she developed great charisma and speaking abilities, at first this was used to increase the royal family's image as she gave speeches and made countless public appearances but at the Britannian court she created a group of "followers". Usually boys of lesser nobility, around her age whom she charmed and persuaded to do various tasks and duties for her. Though she claimed it was entirely innocent and it wasn't unusual for lower class boys to seek the approval of a princess this "inner circle" left a bad impression in both the public and court's minds and unpleasant rumours about the groups behaviour began circling the court.

And so she was shipped off to area 11, to oversee the Shinko ghetto near Tokyo and the larger Shinjuku Ghetto; a dreadfully boring job designed to show her humility and move her away from the court but close enough to the other members of the royal family in area 11. She was also raised to the rank of Lt. General though this is purely ceremonial.

As a person Alexandria is determined, self-centered, generally quite stupid and lacking in leadership skills as well as arrogant but she is also charming and charismatic.

Weapons: N/A
Secondary Weapons: N/A
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Special Weapons): N/A (I would like for her to obtain a geass shortly in the IC though.)
Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Whatever): A car specially designed to protect her, think of a president's car for example.
Appearance (Anime accepted): Image

Nation Name: Videssos
Character Name:
Canon or Original: Original
Affiliations: Holy Britannian Empire
Age: 19
Rank (If Military/Resistance): 10th Prince of the Holy Britannian Empire, as well as a general.
Bio (includes Personality)
Born the 10th Prince of Britannia- a son of Marianne and Charles, the older brother of Lelouch, resembling him to a fair degree, Orpheus was likewise seen as highly intelligent at an early age. With the complicated family situation, he didn't really feel much towards Charles, though he came to be a bit more positive regarding his brothers and sisters, and he was fond of his mother. Revealing a taste in a wide range of things, from history and war to music and art, Orpheus revealed much potential from an early age. Among other things, he was also a talented painter, as well as a pianist, and he would become a talented composer in time, likewise possessing a way with words that could seem quite poetic. With an evidently creative mind, it was also grounded in a decent interest in the sciences, and technology.

He often played with some of the others when they were children, showing a certain slightly manipulative element even back then. Sometimes, of course, it got him into trouble, though he was talented at redirecting the blame or simply hiding, or outrunning others. The last happening more often when Cornelia was a bit too annoyed with said antics. Nonetheless, he often came up with effective plans when it came to his various actions, including some pranks, although he offset that fairly well by seeming to be a polite, trustworthy and honourable type, outwardly.

Growing up with his younger brother, Lelouch, Orpheus nonetheless seemed quite kind, as well as perceptive; recognising Lelouch's potential, and helping him rapidly advance it by teaching him Chess when they were young. Likewise, he showed a similar attitude towards Nunnally. Unlike some of the others, Orpheus never sought to try and earn the approval of Charles, seeing it as pointless and futile from the beginning. He perceived that the Emperor saw them as nothing more than tools with various skills, and that his main goal lay elsewhere. To this regard, he did take interest. He quietly investigated what the emperor was up to, using some of his experience in subterfuge and intrigue to gain a few of the details of Charles's plans, though he moved carefully, ever aware that jumping in on the deep end of things could be dangerous.

In other areas, he became well-acquainted with many of the other princes and princesses, including Schneizel, Clovis, Odysseus, Euphemia, Carine, Guinevere, and Alyse, among others, to varying extents. Schneizel's own talent was something he viewed with interest, whilst Clovis he found amusing, and Oddyseus a bit too foolish for his own good. Whilst he tended to be more uncomfortable with Alyse's antics.

When Marianne died, Orpheus's personality became darker, and he became colder, as well as more calculating and manipulative. Despite this, he still sought to protect Lelouch and Nunnally. Knowing what Lelouch would likely do, he attempted to intercede in advance, and try to make Charles' reaction to Lelouch's anger and the belief that Charles had left his mother defenceless, as lenient and forgiving as possible. Unsure if it had worked, he was to grow a certain dislike towards Charles after he banished Lelouch and Nunnally to Japan as political bargaining chips. Even if the outcome hadn't been that surprising, both separating them, as well as putting his younger siblings in such danger, were things Orpheus considered unforgivable. Despite this, he had enough sense not to let his emotions take over and make him do something as foolish as openly denouncing Charles or seeking to kill him.

Further seeking to subtly undermine Charles, as well as to discover his plans, Orpheus investigates further, beginning to learn of a supernatural element to things. He learnt a degree about the collective human subconscious, and after taking more risks, learnt of Thought Elevators, and several other things. He also manipulated Clovis into telling him about the Code R Research Team, and then used Bartley Asprius's loyalty to the Imperial Family to find out further details. He learnt more about the Immortals, and of the Geass.

Meanwhile, Orpheus also took involvement in military matters, in the official area of things. With his talent for strategy well known, he rapidly found involvement in the Britannian military. Distracting others with his victories against the Middle Eastern Federation, as well as the European Union, also using more subtle means to undermine the Chinese Federation, he also attempted to find out more in these places. He became quite notable for his skill with a Nightmare Frame. In one particularly fierce battle in western Scandinavia, he ended up being separated from a detachment of Royal Guards, destroying a group of enemy Knightmare Frames and cornering another. It was destroyed, with the pilot escaping at the last moment, though further artillery strikes by the enemy, as well as the ineptitude of a Britannian lieutenant who had been assigned to Orpheus' force without prior warning, the forces were spilt up by a strike by E.U. reinforcements. The failure of the lieutenant to properly carry out Orpheus's orders ensured that they were in more trouble than necessary. Though they would still come to win, of course, with a separate force moving in to destroy a munitions cache.

Capturing the pilot of the Knightmare Frame he'd destroyed earlier, Orpheus learned of rumours about a nearby E.U. base in which a research team resided, suspected by some to be working with the Britannians in secret. After learning this information, he disposed of the prisoner by shooting them in the head, before moving on to the area of said base, beneath an E.U. munitions complex. Infiltrating it, he would encounter the team, who were indeed pro-Britannian in allegiance, working secretly for the Rosenberg Institute. Pressing them further, Orpheus was told that they were simply there on the orders of the Emperor, maintaining an eye on a nearby Thought Elevator situated within ancient ruins in the nearby mountains. An element of Orpheus's obsession with this knowledge, and some of his feelings regarding the emperor began to show. He decided to eliminate them, seeing their being aware of some of his plans being dangerous. He trapped them in the central room, throwing a grenade that killed most of them, and finishing the others one by one. One managed to flee through a ventilation panel into another part of the base, entering an area in which a certain Immortal was kept in stasis.

Incapacitating the last survivor, he investigated what he had found. Soon, the base was to be under attack by more Britannian forces, lead by Bartley. Awakening the Immortal, who revealed herself to be C.C., Orpheus inadvertently touched her, setting off a mental exchange of visions, a few of which were glimpses of her memories, whilst C.C. learned of his plans and memories coincidentally. Meanwhile, both Britannian and E.U. forces began to emerge in the area, the munitions storage facilities above ground rapidly creating further danger. Another explosion rocked the area, with parts of the base beginning to collapse, and a closer detonation partially catching Orpheus within its radius, injuring him and trapping him under some rubble. C.C., having seen his memories, used the chance to manipulate him into doing her bidding. Rapidly assenting, the prince agreed to do as she wished. Seeing him as potentially useful asset indeed, she granted him a Geass, after which he instinctually activated it, and consumed the flesh of the nearby and incapacitated scientist who had fled to the room earlier, resulting in his rapid healing and the strength to break free of the rubble. Telling him to continue on the path he sought, and to wait for her, she returned to stasis so that the situation would not complicate further.

Orpheus escaped quickly, ensuring no trace of his presence remained. He quickly learned that the forces had been sent after the base's research team had failed to reply, Bartley, as the leader of the next research team that the Immortal was already going to be sent to, would recover her for further study, under the Emperor's orders, intending to transport her to a safer location. Likewise, a further search would have ensued should C.C. have been missing, not to mention secrecy was paramount, and finding Orpheus at this base would be quite suspicious. And it was also an example of a situation where violence probably wasn't the best idea, even if Orpheus' new power could prove to be surprisingly deadly.

Returning to the Holy Britannian Empire, he plotted and waited in secret, socialising with the other royalty, as well as nobles. Likewise, Orpheus also engaged in further military conquests, whilst also delving into science, and in secret testing his powers. As a result, in some of the more densely populated cities, conveniently where he happened to be, there sometimes seemed to be mysterious disappearances and gruesome murders. Likewise, perhaps to a degree of irony, his skill in battle, as well as a certain eager hunger he seems to possess for it, and a tendency to cause much bloodshed, has ensured among others, the moniker of the "Sanguine Demon," as well as the "Reaper General" and "Dragon Prince", on account of his effectiveness in battle, his approach, and how enemies feared him. Amongst the Scandinavians, he was known as the Black Einherjar. And elsewhere, as the Black Wolf of Britannia.

At several points, some of the resistance forces in Japan, backed by the Chinese Federation and the European Union, engaged in battle with his. These battles, which were unsurprisingly victories, further pressured both powers into reinforcing and diverting forces to Kyushu and Hokkaido from elsewhere, as part of his plan to weaken their control in other places. Occasionally, he travelled alone, at one point wiping out a two companies of Japanese troops attempting to sabotage and take over a Britannian base in Aomori, feeding upon them accordingly. A few survivors, who didn't know of his identity, were allowed to escape, in order to undermine the morale of the Japanese and their allies in Hokkaido to the north. The intent was to spread fear and cause desertions and infighting amongst their ranks, among other things. They would come to tell tales of a bloodthirsty and malevolent demon, that devoured human flesh, and possessed unnatural speed and strength, in a more or less human form. Though they didn't really have time to get a good look, due to the speed, as well as how quickly blood flew everywhere.

A highly intelligent and pragmatic individual, Orpheus had a knack for strategy, among other things, such as the arts.
He sometimes has a dark sense of humour, which he hides when he can. Despite his efforts, he sometimes acts without thinking, or misjudges situations. Orpheus can be quite capable and level-headed when faced with challenges, and is a fast learner, often only having to be taught something once before he learns it. Despite having seen some rougher parts of the world at his age, he remains fairly arrogant and can give a mule lessons in stubbornness unless firmly persuaded otherwise. Orpheus often seems to be on the side of whomever he deals with, though those who are perceptive enough can realise how he subtly remains on his own side, never truly committing to one faction or another. He has no qualms about killing people, though he can seem quite charming and helpful, outwardly, seeming to be quite trusting despite his evident intelligence, though that is a façade.

Also possessing an avid interest in women- despite something listed in his personality. As an unfortunate side effect of his upbringing, he's probably not going to think highly of non-nobles, and to a lesser extent non-royalty, though he isn't that bad, not being a total royal jerkass like Joffrey/other people/nobles with esteemed positions and isolated upbringings, often seem to be. He has a habit of letting his arrogance mean he underestimates others, and tries to maintain a certain image, often seeming charismatic. His personality is rather complex in truth, and this is but the tip of the iceberg.

He possesses both a superiority complex and an inferiority complex. He usually considers most other people weaker, and beneath him. He sees them as you might expect, yet when he believes others to be stronger, or they have proven themselves to be stronger, Orpheus obsesses over them, wanting to become as strong as them, yet also seeming fanatical towards them, and perhaps as scared of them. He can also be quite bloodthirsty- especially so, regarding his Geass - manipulative, power-hungry, and ruthless in his endeavours, also showing an obsessive interest in certain supernatural elements of things, including Geass users, the collective human subconscious, immortals, and other such things. In this manner, Orpheus constantly seeks to push the boundaries of his knowledge and power, through gathering artefacts and writings of such natures, as well as through experimentation, being ever ambitious. His odd mind can seem sadistic at times, and masochistic at others. He tends to seem polite, yet sometimes mocking, and amused by the attempts of others to stop him, when the rare few figure out what he's up to. Despite the level of honour members of nobility are supposed to have, he possesses a feral cunning and a knack for quickly exploiting any opening or weakness possessed by others, revealed by his impressive intellect and perceptive abilities. With said cunning, of course, being hidden behind his usual veneer. He trusts no one, seeing honesty and truthfulness to be naive and foolish concepts. Despite this, he has some level of loyalty to the Imperial family.

Weapons: Himself and his Knightmare Frame.
Secondary Weapons: A pair of Britannian machine-pistols with laser attachments, modified to effectively serve as pistol swords, with both ranged and melee capabilities in such a manner (remember how Cornelia had a rifle-sword, so such weapon combinations are in use, even if probably a bit expensive). Two hidden blades.
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Special Weapons): Skilled with a blade, as well as with a gun, and a Knightmare frame. Though his skills rely more on speed and intelligence, and he sometimes pushes himself a bit too far physically, and can be worn out accordingly. His intelligence is often shown in his strategic aptitude, and his skill at deceiving others.

His Geass is the "Power of Absolute Devouring" which when used, allows one to absorb energy from their surroundings, be it the life-force of others via directly consuming their flesh and blood via direct physical contact, or within a reasonable distance, energy generated by Sakuradite- and thus machinery. This energy absorption enables him regenerate his wounds and become stronger and possess remarkable athletic abilities, though he can still be wounded or killed. For instance, long-distance attacks with which Orpheus can't get close enough to use it, tend to require physically avoiding, otherwise they'll do damage. Likewise, whilst helping him physically, it makes him more mentally unstable. Some side effects include a taste for human flesh, as well as a tendency to become more easily angered or manipulated when provoked, though Orpheus tries to counter this the best he can. Currently, the Geass has developed to both eyes, though he can control its activation, more or less. He also tends to rely on this power to offset his normal lack of much in the way of physical strength. Though he's still fairly fast.

If anyone's got good ideas for further weaknesses, I'm open to suggestions.


Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Whatever): His flagship- the prototype battleship Camlann, as well as a modified experimental prototype RPI-212AFA Vincent Commander Model Air Knightmare Frame. (Advance model manufactured according to his specifications, around a year ahead of schedule, so pre-mass production, and with some different specs from the ones that have yet to be made). Appearance for battleship could also be this, though I'm not sure which to pick.

For all reasons and purposes, Videssos, Woodstovia, you might want to check on the entirety of the rules again and see what your apps are missing before I can accept them.

Well, anyway, when I got back home from my extra studies, I'll make sure to replace the [RESERVED] spots.

I'm using the old app form, so there is no "anything else" section, to put that in... :p

Loopholed, in other words.
I'll probably edit the app, though.

My interest for Code Geass has not died down despite cartoon mushroom cloud Ashford, so I'll ask this one: Will a World War Nippon with all the associated explodineering really get refused in favor of plots, schemes and sinister machinations?

A few are wips. I'll flesh them out later.

Nation Name: Tristates
Character Name(s) and Aliases: Elizabeth Petraeus Trelane | Eliza-X | The Fifth Horseman
Canon or Original: Original
Affiliation(s): Generation WAR | The Raven Guard (her brigade) | Herself
Age:23
Rank|Occupation: Architect (Generation WAR rank equivalent to a Commander-in-Chief)
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free)

Elizabeth was born in 1994 A.T.B to father Petraeus Wellesley Trelane, a Britannian Field Marshal, and Alexandria Trelane, a Countess of the Britannian Royal Court. After graduating Valedictorian from Lord Cornwallis Academy, she was accepted into The Citadel Military Institute in South Carolina, within the Britannian Homeland. Placement in these two presitgious centers, the perks of her pedigree, and the standing of her parents allowed her to enlist as a Sub-Leuitenant within Britannia's Royal Panzer Infantry at age 16.

Her military file, like her school record, was near immaculate. Citations for distguishing valor, gallantry, and extraordinary heroism came in rivers by her commanding officers during her service with the Coldstream Grenadiers, and the Royal Shock Dragoons when they were deployed in the invasion of Japan in 2010. Because of Elizabeth's display of battlefield acumen she was given her own command, a special forces unit, dubbed the Raven Guard Regiment.

At age 20 in 2014 A.T.B, the Trelane family suffered a series of losses. The first was herself. During a operation in the near-pacified Japanese Capitol, a series of violet engagements with resistance forces left Elizabeth temporaily blind and bed ridden at the local medical station. The second was her father, who died excuting orders that were blundered by Britannia High Command, leading to the militaries worst loss of face in living memory. Naturally, the late-Field Marshal bore the entire weight of the blame, leading to an massive inquiry in the whole affiar. The third was her mother, who was stripped of her position, and summarily executed after a tribunal found her guilty for charges of "Accessory to Conspiracy and Sedition" , "Willfully Insubordination & Disobeying a Superior Officer" , and "Intent to Aid and Abet the Enemy". The charges levied, revolved the findings of the inquiry board, evidence of which, were never disclosed to the public eye for reasons of "State Secruity."

The entire affiar was purposefully contained to the Homeland during its progress, and had not reached the ears of those fighting in Japan for a time. When was confirmed and had reached the rear lines where Elizabeth was staying, she was spirited away with assistance from her comrades in the Raven Guards, and was not present at the medical facility when Britannian military police arrived for her arrest. Enter the present, where she and a few like-minded individuals seek to take the world by storm with their underground movement, Generation WAR.


Personality

Elizabeth is immensely brilliant, witty, competent and dedicated to staying on objective. At the same time, she is a little self-absorbed, quirky, detached and analytical. She has a introvert personality, and can spend days working and planning on the next operation, the next mission, or the next campaign. A workaholic of the first order.

She has little regard for rules, authority or bureaucracy, in most cases viewing them as little more than obstacles to her work. This gives her little reason to have loyalty or waste time with anything that falls outside her views. Which results in an uneasy relationship with those who have not known her long. While her single-minded dedication and seemingly detached personality have led to many perceiving her as devoid of morals or emotions, she has nonetheless shown to care about the people close to her and has been deeply affected on a personal level by the moral implications of what she does. Occasionally, she'll lapse into philosophical discussions or drop food-for-thought-comments randomly in a conversation.

She tends to be professional and authoritative when speaking to people, which she rarely does outside of formal and business related activities. She has little patience for extraneous detail, wanting the important facts out of them and then concluding their meaning. She rarely voices her current emotions, and often observes people while speaking to them to discern hidden details. She may appear enigmatic and manipulative at times; while she despises efforts to withhold information from herself, she has a tendency of laying her own plans in advance and only divulging information when it becomes relevant. She prefers to work with her authority unchallenged, and does not appreciate being bogged down by having to explain herself, especially in a hurry.


Weapons: Morita Automatic Carbine,
Secondary Weapons: Silenced Britannian Pistols, Dual Fairbain-Sykes fighting knives
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Special Weapons):

Geass "Cyberware" - Allows her to control any and all eletrical currents and signals within a given area radius. In addition, she can interact and control machinary and equipment that has been the focus of her Geass.

Hacktivist - Her foremost skill lies in working with technology, specifically relating to espionage.

Modern Military Specialist - Former Britannian military experiance as well as paramilitary gurriella training makes her a worthy opponent in combat.

Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Whatever): Arablest Knightmare Frame, Subaru Impreza 22b

Nation Name: Tristates
Character Name(s) and Aliases: Kallen Kōzuki | Kallen Stadtfeld | Q-1
Canon or Original: Canon
Affiliation(s): Japanese Resistance | Dark Knights
Age: 17
Rank|Occupation: Britannia Nobel (formerly) | Captain (of the Zero Squad)
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free)

Kallen has shown to have a rebellious personality as she is strong-willed, short tempered, impulsive, forceful and quite feisty. Despite her tough attitude Kallen is actually quite sensitive and gentle, however after the death of her brother she doesn't show this side much any more.

While being both Japanese and Britannian, Kallen has the ability to live a normal life; however, she refuses to fully accept her Britannian side as it would mean abandoning her Japanese friends, people, and self; thus making her one of the few selfless characters in the series. On multiple occasions she has claimed that she hates Britannians, though that is clearly an exaggeration, as she has been seen caring about Britannian civilians on multiple occasions, a prime example being her visible concern for the Student Council during the Lake Kawaguchi incident.

At Ashford Academy, Kallen is forced to hide her identity; to avoid suspicion, she puts on some makeup, changes her hairstyle, and her personality as well. Whereas normally Kallen is powerful, confident, willful, and Japanese-favoring, at school she is a milquetoast, withdrawn ill girl who doesn't speak up very much (the ill part is to hide her recreational activites as a Black Knight).

In battle, Kallen is aggressive (this could be due to the fact that her weapons are mainly-close range), often ruthless, and opportunistic; her code name, Q-1, is arguably a shortened version of the "Queen" on a chessboard, the strongest piece in a chess game.

Weapons: Assorted Black Knight Weaponry
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Other):

Fighter Ace - Superb Knight Frame piloting skills.

Elite Insurgent - From close-quarter-combat, to covert infiltration, Kallen can be considered among the best.

Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Tricycle/Whatever): Guren Mk - II

Canon or Original: Original
Affiliation(s):|United Republicans (formerly) | Generation WAR | The Horsemen: Pestilance| Himself
Age: 2117
Rank|Occupation: Architect(Commander-in-Chief of the North American Threatre)|Founder and Financer of Generation WAR
Bio & Personality:
The history of De Clare is a long andarduous one. He was born Gaius Cornellius Corbulo on July 12, 100 BC to a patrician family in the Roman Republic in the city of Neapolis, in South Italy. Despite their ancient pedigree, the Corneli Corbulos were not especially politically influential, although they had enjoyed some revival of their political fortunes in the early 1st century BC. Corbulo's father, also called Gaius Cornellius Corbulo, governed the province of Asia, and his sister Julia, Cornellius's aunt, married Gaius Marius, one of the most prominent figures in the Republic. His mother came from an influential family. Little record still exists of De Clare's childhood or early life, but what is has been safely secured by a web of overlapping and intertwining covers that would take many a life time to go through, let alone make any connections.

In 85 BC, Cornillius's father died suddenly, so at sixteen he was the head of the family. His coming of age coincided with a civil war between his uncle, a military man of great esteem, and his rival, a ruthless politician. Both sides, whenever they were in the ascendancy, carried out bloody purges of their political opponents. For a while, Cornillius's uncle held the upperhand, and he prospered for it. But following his uncles final defeat, Cornillius's connections to the old regime made him a target for the new one. He was stripped of his inheritance, and everything he owned, and only aquiesced to exile when the threat of punishment was extended to his family. Finding no future in Rome, he joined the army, serving under Marcus Minucius Thermus in Asia and Servilius Isauricus in Cilicia. He served with distinction, winning the Civic Crown for his part in the Siege of Mytilene.

Returning worn but a war hero, he still lacked means since his inheritance was confiscated. Investing what he had, he acquired a modest house in Subura, a lower-class neighborhood of Rome. He turned to legal advocacy, and became known for his exceptional oratory, accompanied by impassioned gestures, a thundering voice, and ruthless prosecution of former governors notorious for extortion and corruption. He was made famous, and infamous, for his hot-blooded stances on liberty, the rights of man, propositions for redistribution of public lands and funds to the destitue and poor. A stance that did not make him very popular amongest the established ruling elite.

From 60 to 52 BC, he returned to the trade of soldiering, fighting and rising in the ranks of Caesar's legions as they conquered their way across Gual, Germania, and eventually the British Isles.

Character Name(s) and Aliases: Wilhelm Meckel/The Exiled/The Royal Guardian/War/The Second Horseman
Canon or Original: Original
Affiliation(s): Generation WAR, Himself, Secretly Lelouch
Age: 25
Rank|Occupation: Horseman/Head of Information for the Black Knights
Bio & Personality: (Spoiler-free) Born in 1992 A.T.B., Wilhelm lived a peaceful, quiet life at first, with his sister, Kristen Meckel. His Sister was Outspoken, while he preferred to play by himself, constantly seeking Knowledge. Most people thought he was touched in the head for not going outside and not voicing his opinions. They soon found out they were dead wrong. Literally. At 17, Wilhelm snuck into a EU Military Base. He hated the EU, much like his Sister, for exiling Royals, but he had different ways of going about it. Somehow, he found his way around without being caught, and stole Top Secret Documents concerning EU troop positions. He then sold this to Britannia. Soon after the sale, after a few more spying ventures, some members of the Britannian Intelligence Agency didn't believe his stories of wild escapes. They accused his stories of being false information, and him of being an EU spy. Together, those particular members had enough Influence to send the Police after him. He escaped to a Neutral Country, Japan... just as it was being invaded. He joined the Japanese side and killed Several Britannian soldiers, ironically fighting the side he had worked so hard to help earlier, and was soon captured and put in a P.O.W. Camp. Of course, it couldn't contain him, and by 2012 A.T.B. he had escaped. He was never caught, and soon Britannia gave up and let him live the life of a normal Britannian citizen. He now teaches gym classes at a school called Ashford Academy. 3 Years ago, he was hired by an Organization called Generation WAR. Not agreeing with their ideals at all, but realizing the best way to hinder and enemy was from the inside, he joined up. His Fighting and Tactical skills ensured that he soon rose to become one of the Five Horsemen, the highest council of the organization. Recently, he joined up with a new Terrorist group called the Black Knights, becoming it's head of Espionage, and planning to betray Generation war to the Black Knights.
Weapons: A mostly-ceremonial Sword, A Pistol
Special Abilities (Geass/Piloting Skills/Other): Wilhelm has great Piloting Skills, and is known for his skill in both Hand-to-Hand combat and Knightmare Combat.
Vehicles (Knightmare Frame/Car/Tricycle/Whatever): He has a customized Knightmare named 'Guardian.'
Appearance: Wilhelm has Blue Eyes and messy hair; His hair is the same color as Kristen's. He is 6'2'', quite slender, and has a sort of beak nose and permanent sneer that makes you automatically suspicious of him.
RP Example: See above app.
