"So what? If I'm gonna die, it's gonna be when I can't kill witches anymore. No one's gonna need me anyway, right? I'm okay with that. The world doesn't need a magical girl if she can't even kill a witch."


Name: Miki Sayaka, the Berserk Paladin, the Mermaid Knight, the Idiot, the Blueberry

Starting Affiliation: Good

Gender: Female

Age: No greater than 14

Appearance:

Image
Image

Species: Magical Girl

Universe of Origin: Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Backstory:

Fourteen year old tomboy Sayaka lives a normal life, in a not so normal world. It's the year 2011 and the Earth's, and by extension Mitakihara's, citizens are unwitting victims to Eldritch Abominations that are present everywhere.

What keeps the world safe?

Magical Girls.

Sayaka and her friend Madoka was first introduced to the world of Magic by the Veteran Magical Girl Extraordinaire Mami Tomoe who saved them from certain death at the hands of the Witch Gertrud's familiars.

One thing led to another and eventually, Sayaka became a Magical Girl too in exchange that Kyubey miraculously allow Kyosuke to play his Violin at top form, thus healing his hand and ensuring that the boy had a world of music to storm and look forward to.

It was a wish she said she would never regret.

Powers and Abilities:

I'm a Magical Girl!: Magical Girls are exceedingly tough, strong, and fast! They can never die even if all their organs are turned to mush and no blood is left inside their body! They'll keep on trucking like a biological version of the terminator. That is of course only true if the Magical Girl herself thinks it is so. Part of the Magical Girl package are enhanced senses and reaction times along with a all around better mind and body. In addition, Magical Girls can summon their chosen arms and armor and perform all kinds of magic! For Sayaka, she's an expert at healing so she regenerates much faster, heals cheaper and quicker, and is all around tougher than your average Magical Girl!

I Can Sword Real Good!: Sayaka's swords are great! Her skill at using them? Even better! Whip swords, pistol swords, long swords, sabers EXPLODING whip swords, and even impractically huge great swords, you name it and Sayaka makes and wields it with expertise she could not have possibly acquired!

Musical Magic!: Want to go fast? There's music for that! Hit harder and faster? Again, we have a piece just perfect for that! Just by picturing what she wants to happen, Sayaka and buff herself in more ways than one just by thinking of a musical piece that fits her purposes. She can make Magical Platforms, shields, and what have you.

That's Debussy ain't it?: Stemming from her crush on Childhood Friend and Musical Prodigy Kamijo Kyosuke, Sayaka has a ear for music and could tell you all about the composer of a piece and even identify the title and version just by listening to it.

I Can Tell...: Sayaka is surprisingly sharp for a girl her age. Her knack for reading people and social situations is as sharp as her swords!

Weaknesses:

Incredibly stubborn and unwilling to compromise her beliefs.

She can't, won't and will never get along with nor will she accept help from those who don't agree with her beliefs.

Despite her new life, she's still an emotional 14 year old teenager.

Can hardly let go of old grudges.

Everything costs her magic. Even simply living requires the use of it.

Inexperienced and incredibly brash.

She expects herself to stay true to her ideals all the time, no matter what happens.

Heads up, I gave Kyubey a new power and weakness. Sayaka has a new ability. They're at the bottom of their respective sections.

Now off to the IC I go. Damn College Exams are in the way though. Won't be a week till I can consistently RP again.

Wow, that nice colorful post took a while. I made the Rapporan section shorter, mostly because I didn't want to re-type everything that I said in the Aebrenata section. But, now that exposition and explanations are mostly out of the way (there are still several Celestials that won't show up until later), posts should take less time.

Name: Enmerkar

Starting Affiliation: Evil

Gender: Male, despite appearances.

Age: Around 7,000 years.

Appearance:
ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage


Species: Vampire Lord-dark spirit hybrid (said dark spirit is essentially a malevolent genius loci merged with a fair number of trapped souls)

Universe of Origin: Though I've used the character elsewhere, for convenience purposes it shall be the Division Six RP.

Backstory:
Enmerkar was born into a wealthy ancient Sumerian family in the upper echelons of the city of Eridu's society, in the time of the world's first human civilization. From an early age, he was known for having a keen intellect. In a city dedicated to the god of knowledge, magic and civilisation, Enki, this was obviously seen as a good thing. Enmerkar was avidly interested in reading, possessing an eidetic memory, recalled every clay tablet he'd ever read, including ones concerning the arcane. He served as an advisor, and a librarian of sorts- important in a civilisation which was fanatical about its record keeping, though his interests also lay in warfare, which was often waged between the various city-states, and necessitated advanced strategies, weaponry and defences to be developed. Such wars was he involved in, against nearby Ur(Urim, or Erech of the bible) and Larsa. He possessed a fair amount of knowledge in regards to agriculture, which was yet another element of the development of early civilisation in the fertile crescent, near the Tigris and Euphrates upon which Sumer had been brought about. Highly adaptable, a useful trait to have in societies both new and old, he was to become a victim of mythical beings.

Eridu would visited by one of the feared vampires known as the Seven Demons, legendary beings whom even in those times had long been spoken of, the children of Enmeshar and Lamashtu. Nonetheless, like vampires of later tales, they would avoid holy places such as the ziggurat-temples of Sumer. These vampires were also able to take on the form of particular creatures and things, appearing in certain forms, with one appearing as a dragon, another a wolf, a leopard, a shibbu (?), wind and a storm (perhaps related to vampires turning into mist)- as well as more human seeming countenances, with four of them being female, and the others male. Bloodthirsty and destructive, their coming was ever a dire thing for mortals. Nonetheless, in one such instance, when they appeared in the oldest of cities, Eridu, they did not kill Enmerkar. It was in this time he became a vampire, bitten by one of their ilk, they did as they pleased, before once more vanishing, perhaps returning to wherever they resided. At that time, he was still relatively young, and as a consequence of being bitten, ceased to age.

Enmerkar would soon come to adapt to his new found nature, as a vampire. Often serving as an advisor, he ruled from the shadows, manipulating through words and subtleties, as well as through dark sorcery, necromancy, and when needed, murder. At some point, he moved to the fortified enclave and temple complex of Uruk, supplanting the previous ruler, who people were made to believe to be his father. This ruler, Mesh-ki-ang-gasher, who was said to be the son of Utu, the sun god, entered the sea and disappeared. In Enmerkar's reign, he brought numerous reforms and changes to Uruk, properly turning it into a city, building a complex system of defences, and increasing the population considerably, whilst also having a temple built in Eridu. He also improved upon and expanded the E-ana, the temple to Inanna, which was in honour of the goddess of love and war, that the city was dedicated to. In foreign affairs, he began a rivalry with Aratta, a rich city somewhere to the east, first desiring to turn its peoples into a vassal state that offered him tribute in the form of precious metals and stones. Accordingly, he dispatched a herald across the mountains of Susin and Anshan to the lord of Aratta, Ensuhkeshdanna (also known as En-suhgir-ana), to demand his submission and his tribute. Aratta refused, despite hearing of Uruk's growing power- or perhaps alternatively to test said power in battle. Accordingly, war was declared, and the armies of Uruk marched against Aratta, the might of the world's earliest organised armies crushing Aratta, and gaining the dominion and tribute desired. Thus was this enemy conquered, Aratta falling within a year.

Fifty years into his reign, with the Amorites, or Martu tribes to the west flooding into the lands of Mesopotamia, migrating into the area, usurping rulers of other cities and founding some of their own new cities, including what was to become Babylon, Enmerkar increased his military, and his defences, building a great wall in the desert to protect the city-state. He ruled for 900 years, with a general, or war chief under his command, named Lugalbanda, who was also a vampire, later taking the kingship of Uruk after Enmerkar vanished.

Appearing from place to place, Enmerkar rarely took to ruling over others openly, though he occasionally served as a king, he was more often to be found in the shadows, as an advisor or a general, or a spymaster to various rulers. Occasionally, he garnered enough interest and ambition to catapult a mortal ruler to a position of greatness, as was the case with Sargon of Akkad, the man who founded the first human empire in history. Of course, Sargon was said to have gained the patronage of Inanna, or Ishtar as she would later come to be known. Whilst spending a majority of his time in this world, he had also travelled through dimensions to a variety of others, over the centuries.

Later on, he would have involvement with Babylon and Assyria- including the empire's well known ruthless suppression of enemies and rebels, as well as Egypt, the Hittites, Mycenae and Minoa, before raising the ire of a powerful high priestess and sorceress of Hekate, being entombed at the time of the Thera eruption, being on Crete at the time, and later awoken in Roman times, during Rome's conquest of Crete. He worked his way into the gens Valerii, of the most powerful Roman patrician families, becoming known as Numerius Valerius Corvus. He would see the empire rise to great heights, despite instability, and threats from both within and without, later culminating in the division and collapse of Rome, argued by some distraught Romans to be caused by turning their back on the old gods. Of course, the surviving pagans in time would be persecuted more than they had the Christians. In the age of Vikings, beginning in the late 700s, Enmerkar sometimes travelled to the far north, and came to be associated with myths regarding Odin's ravens, Huginn and Muninn, as well as the valravn of Danish folklore. The fact that the vikings often believed that as long as a raven banner was flown, a battle could be won, may at least in part be able to be attributed to him, and Enmerkar's skill in battle.

In 1084, Enmerkar would see the Normans under Robert Guiscard sack Rome- the sack itself being unsurprising considering the city's history, and imperil the Pope. He would use this opportunity to scour the place of the last remnants of knowledge he did not already have, though some of the church's forces there discovered his nature as a vampire and a demon, they were aghast when Christian symbols and prayers were useless against him. In the Vatican, this would be a heavily guarded and potentially faith-endangering account of how faith and arms could not bring down what they saw as a servant of Satan.

In the 12th century, he resided in Constantinople, the centre of medieval trade, and what was often referred to as the queen of cities. He found a fair amount of interest in the occult and gnostic societies present in city, which reminded him of similar things in Alexandria, centuries earlier, before the Islamic conquest of Egypt. Despite his contempt for monotheistic religions, he recognised the earlier traditions they had taken from, warped and distorted even as they were, and gnosticism was often closer to the old gods than the Orthodox and Catholic churches were willing to cope with. He saw their beliefs as hypocritical, also knowing that the lauded champion of Christianity, Emperor Constantine, had in his time, pandered to those who worshipped the Roman state gods, as well as the popular cult (especially in the military) of Mithras and the rising faith of early Christianity (which was popular to the masses), depicting himself as Mithras, Sol Invictus, and as a "13th apostle". The events of the fourth crusade stirred a hatred towards the Catholic church, and the Venetians who had directed the crusaders to sack Constantinople. Many of the crusaders, and the elderly Venetian doge himself were paid- fatally, for their actions. Many of the short-lived Latin Empire's enemies were aided in their endeavours and victories by Enmerkar. Indeed, it was he who helped restore the Nicaean Empire to the Byzantine Empire, in time.

He had notable influence in the Albigensian crusade against the Cathars in southern France, where he grew attached to some of the locals in Carcassonne and Montsegur. When the crusade came, Enmerkar was responsible for the death of many of the crusaders, and there were tales of a dark beast with terrible sorcery, a servant of the devil incarnate, a creature that had brought about the demise of many men during the crusade. Especially when the crusaders burnt the Cathar locals alive, as heretics. The death count increased then. When Montsegur was besieged, Enmerkar helped the defenders, even as he found more knowledge about the ancient and mysterious artefacts amongst their possession. The Grail, and the books that would help lead to it, and the Labyrinth, were smuggled out of Montsegur. A few of the besiegers tried to stop them, but were slaughtered by Enmerkar.

In the wake of their slaughter, would be one of the first times Enmerkar would encounter one of his most powerful foes. A rival vampire who lead a dark cabal that had been manipulating events as far back as the Merovingian Dynasty. She would engage him in a battle that wrecked much of the nearby countryside, and inadvertently demolished some of the more remote villages in southern France, even as the defenders of Montsegur came to burn at the hands of their enemies. Despite some of the more powerful magic and attacks at his command, Enmerkar soon found himself defeated. Sadistic as that rival vampire was, it would be a slow and incredibly painful experience, one that involved the breaking of both mind and body, before being imprisoned there. Despite efforts otherwise, he would not die, as he was already thousands of years old. A sorcerous and alchemical ritual would bind him, weakening him and forcing him to obey whomever first had and used the key to power over him, as long as they lived or unlived. This artefact was divided into three parts, one in his soul, another in his body, and the other a physical artefact. This is the Clavicula Nox, or Key of Night.

With his defeat, languishing in ignominy, he would in time be cast down into what later came to be known as the gouffre des corbeux (Crow's/Raven's chasm in Belesta Forest, near Montsegur, in Ariege). Bound and entrapped within this mysterious gorge in the middle of a dark forest, ravens would always be seen around the area, the place perhaps getting its name to this, though that also being in part due to the assorted corpses gathered there over the ages. The bodies of humans and other animals had ended up being dumped into the cavern for as long as there was human occupation in the area, for around 80,000 years. Both due to Enmerkar, and to this, the place gathered many rumours, myths and legends, spoken of by the villagers that lived in the nearby village. The chasm was effectively drenched in death, accumulated emotions, and the tortured souls of all those who had died- both before and after being sent down into rift, as well as the tainted genius loci or spirit of the land, that resided there, not having the best of impacts on the mind of the vampire.

Four centuries later, in the early 1800s, when the signs of earlier conflict had all but been erased, Enmerkar would come to be freed from this abyss. The enchanted imprisonment that kept him there had gradually faded in power, and he had recovered a little, though subsisting on whatever creatures fell down there and died, was hardly the best existence. His mind had partially merged with the long dead spirits there, as well as the genius locii whose reach encompassed the surrounding forest. He used this reach to sometimes draw the attention of those nearby, be it animals or those residents of Belesta village. Spreading his influence further was generally curtailed by a powerful spirit that dwelt in Montsegur, known as the White Lady of Montsegur, Esclarmonde de Foix. Although a Cathar and aware of what he had done long ago, she was bound to protect the mountain against the malevolent spirit of the Raven's Chasm.

Sometimes the occasional traveller would appear, though the forest was out of the way, the nearby ruined Cathar bastion of Montsegur would from time to time, gather interest from people as much as its myths became spoken. Enmerkar had a limited and indirect influence on events during his time here, though he was nonetheless able to sometimes temporarily use mortals whose bodies he had acquired. He witnessed the destruction of the Thirty Years War in the 1600s, and the abandonment of most of the nearby castles- including the meagre garrison of Montsegur, and other former Cathar mountain fortresses (such as Aguila, Peyrepertuse, Queribus, Puilaurens and Termes), when the border with Spain was moved in the treaty of the Pyrenees. The late 1700s also brought about the French revolution, which he saw ended, at least temporarily, the French attempts at imitating the nam-lugal, or kingship of old Sumer, including the pretence at their being divinely ordained, being yet another memory of when kingship had been handed down from the gods, both in the manner that they had chosen the ruler, and that the dynasty had often been descended from gods.

It would be two decades after that, that Enmerkar would see the opportunity to free himself, and to shatter what had imprisoned him there for centuries. Though it was gradually weakened already, and his mind almost one with the genius loci and the fallen souls that resided there. By that point, he had essentially merged with the corrupted spirit of the area, and the souls of the chasm's dead. Though another vestige of the vampire's defeat long ago, the Clavicula Nox, remained a danger to him, he was for the time being, able to exercise more freedom. Those who had been his servants, had maintained well a large number of the places he had dwelt in, or seen as areas of import, needing protection, often guarding secrets long forgotten by others. Ever the one to collect knowledge, he had many hidden repositories of books, inscriptions, clay tablets and other forms of media, as well as artefacts, among other things. Such information and knowledge, he guarded well.

Wanting to get rid of what had long been a thorn in his side, he used his rapidly recovering powers to defeat, and make Esclarmonde, the White Lady, little more than an ineffectual shade that walked through the nearby forests and the caves of Montsegur, absorbing most of her power. A more important issue to deal with was the ritual to which he'd been bound. Voraciously, he searched for magic and knowledge by which to remove, or at least weaken the old it had on him. Of course, there was little he did not already know in this regard, with many of the occult traditions simply being polluted and distorted over time, making it usually the case that Enmerkar knew more than was available to others. Although he learnt and found a little more, it was in the end, a fruitless affair.

Even as this happened, Napoleon engaged in his conquest of Europe, defeating most of the coalitions against him. As often, Enmerkar found use for his abilities during this conflict. He also acquired an ornate revolver in the 1860s, enchanted, forged by alchemy and given considerable power that over time increased further. Meanwhile and after, an occult revival in the 19th century brought a lot more interest in the Cathars of southern France, something which carried on into the 20th century, whilst various secret societies and orders, formed around this time. Some of those, such as the Guido von List Society, and the Germanenorden, would be responsible for the Nazis, with much of their leadership being members of such orders, with a pro-Germanic/Aryan, anti-Semitic belief system, often with Germanic Neopagan leanings, combined with a political and ethnic aspect, and sometimes Celtic and Athurian elements. Even to the extent that they forged items, like the Chiemsee Cauldron, to have ceremonial and symbolic significance and use. Enmerkar would see and have involvement in both world wars, with the occult and pagan aspects of the Nazis garnering his interest, even as the likes of Himmler saw in him a connection to Odin's ravens. In the 1930s, he saw Otto Rahn investigate the legends of the Holy Grail, scouring southern France, including Montsegur, though Enmerkar knew it had already been taken from the mountain, and that even the castle itself was a royal fortress later built after the Cathar bastion had been destroyed in the wake of the siege. As the Third Reich ransacked Europe, Enmerkar, going in this time by the name Julius von Schwarzthal, gathered much knowledge, artefacts and wealth as a secretive and senior member of the SS, though he conveniently vanished shortly before the end of the war. Among other things, he was behind events such as the Wormhoudt massacre, the Gardelegen massacre, the Holocaust of Kalavryta and what took place at Oradour-sur-Glane, as well as the the Holocaust in Belarus.

Meanwhile, he was also in the Ahnenerbe, and had organised, ordered, and took part in expeditions and searches for sites, artefacts and features of an archaeological nature that were intended to reveal the archaeological and cultural history of the Aryan race. Whilst another part of the objective was to investigate things of an occult and mythological nature, often tied together in such matters. Enmerkar travelled as far as Tibet, also conducting experiments in the aforementioned areas, with the organisation's combination of science, archaeology, ideology, occultism and various other things coming together. Though believing their ideology to be nonsense, he had used the power and resources they had held at the time for his own ends. Ironically, in the aftermath of the war, both Nazi-hunter and vampire hunter organisations attempted to target him, to little effect for the most part. Those that ever found him, disappeared, or met mysterious and untimely accidents.

Although he had heard of nuclear experiments, and of the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, he would not face the destructive capability of nuclear power himself until Chernobyl. In the months leading up to the disaster, he had travelled there, hearing rumours of an old enemy in the area. Reports by the people who lived there, began to crop up, about a mysterious black bird, as he scoured the area, and occasionally clashed briefly with this adversary. Rumours began to spread of a "Black Bird of Chernobyl" a sinister apparition, before the Nuclear reactor went critical in the midst of a battle. Many of the workers who survived the initial blast and fire told frightful stories about a huge black winged creature flying from the destroyed reactor, gliding through the swirling plumes of irradiated smoke pouring from the reactor. Though of course all who witnessed this would come to die not long after, with the radiation levels easily enough to kill them within days or weeks. Time passed after this, and the uncertain outcome of the battle remained just that. The Vampire Lord saw humans rapidly advance in technology in the following decades, more and more as the 21st century neared. Though he was sometimes known as the Raven Lord, that is far from the only form he takes, being able to take on a variety of forms, though usually a vampiric variation of whatever animal it happens to be. Commonly assumed forms, as well as that of a raven, include a dragon, a wolf, and a particular eagle known as a Haast's eagle, among other things. Even these days, he still holds a level of interest in finding a way to properly get rid of the Clavicula Nox's curse, before someone found out and became able to utilise it against him, bending him to their will, and perhaps forcing him to permanently take a side.

At some point, he obtained a cursed Japanese blade named Juuchi Yosamu (10,000 Cold Nights/ 十千夜寒) ), and a shapeshifting weapon named Dugnamtar (Fate Speaker in ancient Sumerian), among other weapons.

Name: Enmerkar

Starting Affiliation: Evil

Gender: Male, despite appearances.

Age: Around 7,000 years.

Appearance:

Species: Vampire Lord-dark spirit hybrid (said dark spirit is essentially a malevolent genius loci merged with a fair number of trapped souls)

Universe of Origin: Though I've used the character elsewhere, for convenience purposes it shall be the Division Six RP.

Backstory:
Enmerkar was born into a wealthy ancient Sumerian family in the upper echelons of the city of Eridu's society, in the time of the world's first human civilization. From an early age, he was known for having a keen intellect. In a city dedicated to the god of knowledge, magic and civilisation, Enki, this was obviously seen as a good thing. Enmerkar was avidly interested in reading, possessing an eidetic memory, recalled every clay tablet he'd ever read, including ones concerning the arcane. He served as an advisor, and a librarian of sorts- important in a civilisation which was fanatical about its record keeping, though his interests also lay in warfare, which was often waged between the various city-states, and necessitated advanced strategies, weaponry and defences to be developed. Such wars was he involved in, against nearby Ur(Urim, or Erech of the bible) and Larsa. He possessed a fair amount of knowledge in regards to agriculture, which was yet another element of the development of early civilisation in the fertile crescent, near the Tigris and Euphrates upon which Sumer had been brought about. Highly adaptable, a useful trait to have in societies both new and old, he was to become a victim of mythical beings.

Eridu would visited by one of the feared vampires known as the Seven Demons, legendary beings whom even in those times had long been spoken of, the children of Enmeshar and Lamashtu. Nonetheless, like vampires of later tales, they would avoid holy places such as the ziggurat-temples of Sumer. These vampires were also able to take on the form of particular creatures and things, appearing in certain forms, with one appearing as a dragon, another a wolf, a leopard, a shibbu (?), wind and a storm (perhaps related to vampires turning into mist)- as well as more human seeming countenances, with four of them being female, and the others male. Bloodthirsty and destructive, their coming was ever a dire thing for mortals. Nonetheless, in one such instance, when they appeared in the oldest of cities, Eridu, they did not kill Enmerkar. It was in this time he became a vampire, bitten by one of their ilk, they did as they pleased, before once more vanishing, perhaps returning to wherever they resided. At that time, he was still relatively young, and as a consequence of being bitten, ceased to age.

Enmerkar would soon come to adapt to his new found nature, as a vampire. Often serving as an advisor, he ruled from the shadows, manipulating through words and subtleties, as well as through dark sorcery, necromancy, and when needed, murder. At some point, he moved to the fortified enclave and temple complex of Uruk, supplanting the previous ruler, who people were made to believe to be his father. This ruler, Mesh-ki-ang-gasher, who was said to be the son of Utu, the sun god, entered the sea and disappeared. In Enmerkar's reign, he brought numerous reforms and changes to Uruk, properly turning it into a city, building a complex system of defences, and increasing the population considerably, whilst also having a temple built in Eridu. He also improved upon and expanded the E-ana, the temple to Inanna, which was in honour of the goddess of love and war, that the city was dedicated to. In foreign affairs, he began a rivalry with Aratta, a rich city somewhere to the east, first desiring to turn its peoples into a vassal state that offered him tribute in the form of precious metals and stones. Accordingly, he dispatched a herald across the mountains of Susin and Anshan to the lord of Aratta, Ensuhkeshdanna (also known as En-suhgir-ana), to demand his submission and his tribute. Aratta refused, despite hearing of Uruk's growing power- or perhaps alternatively to test said power in battle. Accordingly, war was declared, and the armies of Uruk marched against Aratta, the might of the world's earliest organised armies crushing Aratta, and gaining the dominion and tribute desired. Thus was this enemy conquered, Aratta falling within a year.

Fifty years into his reign, with the Amorites, or Martu tribes to the west flooding into the lands of Mesopotamia, migrating into the area, usurping rulers of other cities and founding some of their own new cities, including what was to become Babylon, Enmerkar increased his military, and his defences, building a great wall in the desert to protect the city-state. He ruled for 900 years, with a general, or war chief under his command, named Lugalbanda, who was also a vampire, later taking the kingship of Uruk after Enmerkar vanished.

Appearing from place to place, Enmerkar rarely took to ruling over others openly, though he occasionally served as a king, he was more often to be found in the shadows, as an advisor or a general, or a spymaster to various rulers. Occasionally, he garnered enough interest and ambition to catapult a mortal ruler to a position of greatness, as was the case with Sargon of Akkad, the man who founded the first human empire in history. Of course, Sargon was said to have gained the patronage of Inanna, or Ishtar as she would later come to be known. Whilst spending a majority of his time in this world, he had also travelled through dimensions to a variety of others, over the centuries.

Later on, he would have involvement with Babylon and Assyria- including the empire's well known ruthless suppression of enemies and rebels, as well as Egypt, the Hittites, Mycenae and Minoa, before raising the ire of a powerful high priestess and sorceress of Hekate, being entombed at the time of the Thera eruption, being on Crete at the time, and later awoken in Roman times, during Rome's conquest of Crete. He worked his way into the gens Valerii, of the most powerful Roman patrician families, becoming known as Numerius Valerius Corvus. He would see the empire rise to great heights, despite instability, and threats from both within and without, later culminating in the division and collapse of Rome, argued by some distraught Romans to be caused by turning their back on the old gods. Of course, the surviving pagans in time would be persecuted more than they had the Christians. In the age of Vikings, beginning in the late 700s, Enmerkar sometimes travelled to the far north, and came to be associated with myths regarding Odin's ravens, Huginn and Muninn, as well as the valravn of Danish folklore. The fact that the vikings often believed that as long as a raven banner was flown, a battle could be won, may at least in part be able to be attributed to him, and Enmerkar's skill in battle.

In 1084, Enmerkar would see the Normans under Robert Guiscard sack Rome- the sack itself being unsurprising considering the city's history, and imperil the Pope. He would use this opportunity to scour the place of the last remnants of knowledge he did not already have, though some of the church's forces there discovered his nature as a vampire and a demon, they were aghast when Christian symbols and prayers were useless against him. In the Vatican, this would be a heavily guarded and potentially faith-endangering account of how faith and arms could not bring down what they saw as a servant of Satan.

In the 12th century, he resided in Constantinople, the centre of medieval trade, and what was often referred to as the queen of cities. He found a fair amount of interest in the occult and gnostic societies present in city, which reminded him of similar things in Alexandria, centuries earlier, before the Islamic conquest of Egypt. Despite his contempt for monotheistic religions, he recognised the earlier traditions they had taken from, warped and distorted even as they were, and gnosticism was often closer to the old gods than the Orthodox and Catholic churches were willing to cope with. He saw their beliefs as hypocritical, also knowing that the lauded champion of Christianity, Emperor Constantine, had in his time, pandered to those who worshipped the Roman state gods, as well as the popular cult (especially in the military) of Mithras and the rising faith of early Christianity (which was popular to the masses), depicting himself as Mithras, Sol Invictus, and as a "13th apostle". The events of the fourth crusade stirred a hatred towards the Catholic church, and the Venetians who had directed the crusaders to sack Constantinople. Many of the crusaders, and the elderly Venetian doge himself were paid- fatally, for their actions. Many of the short-lived Latin Empire's enemies were aided in their endeavours and victories by Enmerkar. Indeed, it was he who helped restore the Nicaean Empire to the Byzantine Empire, in time.

He had notable influence in the Albigensian crusade against the Cathars in southern France, where he grew attached to some of the locals in Carcassonne and Montsegur. When the crusade came, Enmerkar was responsible for the death of many of the crusaders, and there were tales of a dark beast with terrible sorcery, a servant of the devil incarnate, a creature that had brought about the demise of many men during the crusade. Especially when the crusaders burnt the Cathar locals alive, as heretics. The death count increased then. When Montsegur was besieged, Enmerkar helped the defenders, even as he found more knowledge about the ancient and mysterious artefacts amongst their possession. The Grail, and the books that would help lead to it, and the Labyrinth, were smuggled out of Montsegur. A few of the besiegers tried to stop them, but were slaughtered by Enmerkar.

In the wake of their slaughter, would be one of the first times Enmerkar would encounter one of his most powerful foes. A rival vampire who lead a dark cabal that had been manipulating events as far back as the Merovingian Dynasty. She would engage him in a battle that wrecked much of the nearby countryside, and inadvertently demolished some of the more remote villages in southern France, even as the defenders of Montsegur came to burn at the hands of their enemies. Despite some of the more powerful magic and attacks at his command, Enmerkar soon found himself defeated.

This artefact was divided into three parts, one in his soul, another in his body, and the other a physical artefact. This is the Clavicula Nox, or Key of Night.

With his defeat, languishing in ignominy, he would in time be cast down into what later came to be known as the gouffre des corbeux (Crow's/Raven's chasm in Belesta Forest, near Montsegur, in Ariege).

Name: Chase Tyrane; The Bounty Hunter

Starting Affiliation: Good, in the sense that he doesn't want reality destroyed; However, he has been hired by Agent A to kill Tadayoshi.

Gender: male

Age: 35

Appearance:
Image
5'10, 200 pounds, muscular build. Short brown hair, dark brown eyes, Caucasian. Mostly-cleanly shaven. Wears a brown Project X uniform with brown calf-height steel toe boots and a brown headband. Wears a dark brown trench coat, concealing his weaponry and gear.

Species: Homo sapiens amplificata ("Advanced Human"; Genetically modified and enhanced human)

Universe of Origin: Red Alert, Tokyo! (National origin: Canada)

Backstory: When he was 21, he was chosen to be a part of the Project X supersoldier experiments, taking part in several missions as a Lieutenant. When Agent A escaped from Project X, the Agent Tyrane was sent after him. His search led him to Poland, where he met some people working for Agent A. After coming to many dead-ends, Agent Tyrane eventually retired from Project X, and became a bounty hunter. He took on many assignments, including ones against Project X, for the right money.

Powers and Abilities: Invulnerability; Resistance to most toxins, including radiation; Resistance to electricity and burns; Quintupled Reaction Time (5x's faster than a normal human's); Enhanced Speed, Agility, and Strength (can use 100% of muscular capability at will, as opposed to most humans only using a fraction of it); Extreme Pain Tolerance; Resistance to Extreme Temperatures; Extreme Stamina; Ability to use some of his gear through thought (semi-consciously). Expert martial artist, with black belts in Karate, Tae-Kwon-Do, Kung-Fu, Ju-Jitsu, Akido, and Krav Maga. Has subdermal graphine armor, allowing him to be impervious to blades and most bullets, without sacrificing flexibility, speed, or movement.

The Project X Uniforms for Field Agents are made to repair themselves.

Weaknesses: Can't use his full amount of strength/speed for long durations. Considering all it stems from is him being able to use 100% of the capability of his muscles at will, as far as this is concerned, he's still physiologically human. Using 100% of his strength for a long duration of time could literally rip his muscles off of his skeleton, and snap tendons & ligaments (good thing he has a healing factor). He can not use his "flight jets" in extremely dry-aired environments (such as deserts), the batteries on them only last ~1 day of constant use, and he can't use them while wearing his trench coat (obviously-he doesn't want to set himself on fire XD). The graphene srmor conducts electricity, making him unusually weak to shock. The subdermal armor also does not protect him from high caliber munitions, such as .50 caliber or above, and certain .45 caliber or above armored piercing rounds can still make it through in some places, under rare circumstances.

Destructive Capacity: Wall/Tree Level

Speed: Class 4; ~18 m/s (40 mph or 64.8 km/h)

Durability: Wall/Tree Level (strait invulnerability); Can not be stabbed or cut, and is impervious to bullets less than .50 caliber.

Lifting Strength: Superhuman Class 5 (He can pick up a full sized Pickup truck over his head and toss it, albeit with extreme difficulty; He can push heavier trucks, such as small cargo trucks like the ones UPS uses, fully loaded, but can not lift them entirely off the ground)

Striking Strength: Class KJ: Kilojoule class, on the higher end. So, wall busting, if he uses 100% of his strength.

Stamina: Very High

Standard Equipment: Two folding swords, stored up his jacket sleeves; Two forearm-mounted grappling cables (titanium alloy cable wrapped around a carbon nano-fiber core) with a range of 500 feet each; HK45C Tactical w/10-round magazine and flashlight/laser aiming module attachment, worn on a drop leg holster on his right thigh, with 2 extra magazines; Lock picking equipment (stored in trench coat); small emergency mag-lite (stored in trench coat); Two miniature belt-mounted jets for maneuvering in the air (one on each side, can pivot and tilt a bit). They are powered by an electric fuel pack. They suck in air from intakes in the front, and separate water vapor from the rest of the air. The water vapor is electrolysized into its separate elements (using the electric packs), hydrogen and oxygen, which are combusted by a spark (again from the electric packs). The resulting explosion is directed out the back of the jets, along with the waste air (the air separated from the vapor). Due to the jets running on vapor, they are more powerful the more humid the air is. The Jets are on a separate black pistol belt. NRS-2 Gun-Knife. Various pocket items, such as phone, keys, etc.

Intelligence: High (I.Q. is 120, for what it's worth).

DONT FUCKING CALL ME A NOOB FOR MAKING THIS GUYS

Okay uh, I'm gonna read off of a script for this. Seems good? *clears throat*

Name: Robloxian, otherwise known as Player1, Player, and Noob.

Starting Affiliation: Good... I think. He will alternate between good and Bad, more of an obstacle than a threat.

Gender: Seems to be Male.

Age: N/A, logic of an obnoxious, spammy, young 11/12 year old child.

Appearance: Image
Someone please kill me.

Species: ROBLOXian.. whatever the fuck those are...

Universe of Origin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roblox
Go figure.

Backstory: Alright.. I'll try to answer this as well as I can.

A long time ago, in a land far, far away- You know what? *Places script in shredder* Fuck this. I'm taking over.

A long time ago in the distant year of 2005, a bunch of nerds decided it'd be fun to make a game where you could be anything, and build anything, 100% free. Unknown to them, in creating this video game, they created a universe, and thus, a being, of immeasurable power and terror:
The ROBLOXian.
A creature of terrifying imagination capability and unknown terror [and idioticy], the Robloxian consumed world upon woald that he came across, not stopping, until he ultimately reached his greatest role- Annihilation of the Multiverse.

Actually, that's for another character. Sorry.

The ROBLOXian, also known as a Noob, is a relatively benevolent, blocky being the size of a child. With pale skin, an unmoving [and unforgiving] face, and intensive knowledge of Scripting, the ROBLOXian had been dropped into this world to test out the young world, but, ultimately, entered a hibernation state towards the end of this time, and was never heard of for a very long time.

Years passed by, and the game went through it's highs [and lows]. Ultimately, the ROBLOXian was called back into service by those above with the simple message of:

"Hey, noob. Wake up. The Multiverse needs saving, noob."

Now back in the game [literally], the ROBLOXian now idles, waiting for his next objective. Whether it's scripting a nuclear weapon capable of destroying the world or beating his high score in a sword fighting game, or Exploring the multiverse around him, some day (and it better fucking be soon!), the boob will be called to defend Reality itself, alongside the various fighters against the ultimate evil, or, alternatively, he will ravage reality itself alongside the hordes of evil. Let's just hope he's on our side, alright?

Powers and Abilities: Here we go..

ROBLOXian Physiology - Has no need to eat, sleep, breathe, can survive in space and die in various ways [pretty vulnerable if you ask me, only like 100 health or something.] This means he will not die if he leaps from a high place, but he will die immediately if is head is severed from is body or his torso is removed from his body. If he is to lose a limb, the only way for him to regrow it is through custom, special devices made by him. He can survive without arms, though, his capabilities will be limited without them.

Enhanced Imagination - This ‘thing’ has an imagination that far outclasses any ADHD six year old or some of the greatest thinkers. This does not mean he is intelligent, it means he has the creativity to build a variety of things. Kinda like me.

Architectural Knowledge - The ROBLOXian can build a variety of structures, albeit a bit slowly, some of which would not regularly follow the laws of Physics. He seems to also be able to know how to work scripts and wiring, as well as electronics with some of his buildings and creations.

Scripts - He is able to “program” certain things into nearly anything he can imagine, by using the Ancient art of Lua scripting. A few bricks that he makes to look like a gun can act as a basic handgun. While he usually only “Scrips” basic stuff like kill-bricks or missile launchers, he is capable of making elaborate contraptions, should he spend a long time on whatever he is building.

Automation Creation, in the fact that he can make some of his devices and creations autonomous using scripts. This does not mean he can make a robot army, it means he can make machinery like robot arms.

Imagination Manifestation, in the sense that he can build nearly anything he can imagine, provided he has building materials. This does not mean end-of-the-world inducing Nuclear weapons.

Paint Manipulation

Customization/Object Manipulation- He can customize various Bricks not only with “scripts”, but with various Meshes, and properties. This includes:
    Anchor - Objects do not obey any laws of physics and therefore float statically unless ‘unanchored’
    Meshes - Change the appearance of a brick
    Colliding - Object is tangible in the physical word and therefore is able to be touched.
    Noncolliding - Object is intangible in the physical world and therefore will appear as solid, but is able to be passed through and such.
    Locking - Object becomes completely impervious to the user’s building tools, and is only able to be unlocked through a tool or anchored. This is commonly used for serious building, but the Robloxian rarely uses this.
In addition, he can resize his bricks, change the paint, copy a brick, or, if it is required, can delete a brick. Though, deleting only works with structures in his world.

Sword Fighter - Level: Novice
Gun Fighter - Level: Novice
Vehicle Operator - Level: Novice
Builder - Level: Master
Scripter - Level: Adept

Now we move on to the stuff that might get this app denied…

Respawning - Should he place down a special Respawn Block in a location, he is able to respawn an indefinite amount of times on the said brick and ONLY the said brick.

Temporary Invulnerability/Forcefield- Upon respawning, he gains a forcefield for about 5 or so seconds, which is said to make him impervious to all forms of damage, except falling into kill-blocks or getting his head removed.

Weaknesses: -No ranged combat [other than weapons]
VERY weak body [Durability is highly outclassed by others]
Low intelligence [makes shitty choices… a lot..]
Can only delete bricks in his own world.
Can only respawn with a Spawn brick [no spawn brick = random spawn or lost for good]
Relies on tools that will help him in combat. At the moment he is not much of an asset fighting-wise.

Destructive Capacity: Depends, varies based on the weapon or device. Theoretically can be anything.

Speed: An average speed-walker’s speed.

Durability: Below street level | Invulnerable when shielded

Lifting Strength: Seems to be able to hold a ridiculous amount of shit in his inventory. Theoretically indefinite [considering he can’t carry anything in his arms other than light tools, though, I’d say average human]

Striking Strength: N/A [cannot punch]

Stamina: Seems to be able to walk indefinitely, swim indefinitely, and breathe in vacuum environments.

Standard Equipment: [list]
LinkedSword - A sword which deals massive damage [in terms of robloxians] and can be thrusted forth, or slashed downwards. A combined thrust jump will make him glide some feet.
Rocket Launcher - Instant kill [in terms of ROBLOX], and can blow limbs off. Happens to be excellent in blowing up fortifications, too.
Build Tools - Provided he has the bricks, he can build nearly anytime, anywhere, should he please.
Oh, and the hats… and the gears.. Oh god, the gears.. and the hats...

Intelligence: Average intelligence of a 6th grader at the time, with vast scripting and building knowledge.


Please fucking help me. I think I have summoned a demon. How do I make this app non-shitty and non OP?

Now we move on to the stuff that might get this app denied…

Respawning - Should he place down a special Respawn Block in a location, he is able to respawn an indefinite amount of times on the said brick and ONLY the said brick.

Temporary Invulnerability/Forcefield- Upon respawning, he gains a forcefield for about 5 or so seconds, which is said to make him impervious to all forms of damage, except falling into kill-blocks or getting his head removed.

Weaknesses: -No ranged combat [other than weapons]
VERY weak body [Durability is highly outclassed by others]
Low intelligence [makes shitty choices… a lot..]
Can only delete bricks in his own world.
Can only respawn with a Spawn brick [no spawn brick = random spawn or lost for good]
Relies on tools that will help him in combat. At the moment he is not much of an asset fighting-wise.

Destructive Capacity: Depends, varies based on the weapon or device. Theoretically can be anything.

Speed: An average speed-walker’s speed.

Durability: Below street level | Invulnerable when shielded

Lifting Strength: Seems to be able to hold a ridiculous amount of shit in his inventory. Theoretically indefinite [considering he can’t carry anything in his arms other than light tools, though, I’d say average human]

Striking Strength: N/A [cannot punch]

Stamina: Seems to be able to walk indefinitely, swim indefinitely, and breathe in vacuum environments.

Standard Equipment: [list]
LinkedSword - A sword which deals massive damage [in terms of robloxians] and can be thrusted forth, or slashed downwards. A combined thrust jump will make him glide some feet.
Rocket Launcher - Instant kill [in terms of ROBLOX], and can blow limbs off. Happens to be excellent in blowing up fortifications, too.
Build Tools - Provided he has the bricks, he can build nearly anytime, anywhere, should he please.
Oh, and the hats… and the gears.. Oh god, the gears.. and the hats...

Intelligence: Average intelligence of a 6th grader at the time, with vast scripting and building knowledge.


Please fucking help me. I think I have summoned a demon. How do I make this app non-shitty and non OP?

Simple.........



you can't.

Now that that's over, I will actually make a SERIOUS app now.

In all seriousness, Roblox is shitty (real shitty) and I am actually making a bunch of legit apps as I speak. Do not fret.

Now, I think it's time for the heroes/villains' first assignment. I have a list of locations where relics are, but which one to use first...

Anyway, relics are basically big important things from specific universes (like the Death Star or Excalibur). I'm looking for more suggestions right now to expand the list, so if you've got one feel free to post it here or telegram me about it.
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one?

Hmm, Excalibur sounds cool, maybe the Matrix of Leadership. Or something like that.

Also, are you getting my Steam messages? Every time I send one you go from online to away.

Well, I know who to bring when going for the Death Star.

And I think it'll be preeeetty ironic if he does what I'm thinking.
