For Justice! Or Something! (Magical Girl RP/OOC/Open!)

[Tourma]

IC

It's story time, children!

Thousands of years ago, a legion of warriors dedicated their lives to protecting the earth from Reapers: beings whose life force came from the suffering of others. There were many types of these creatures, but they all had the same purpose: to deliberately inflict harm upon humanity. Obviously, they were invisible to ordinary humans. Otherwise, we would've gotten rid of them ages ago.

The Reapers were the main reason these warriors came together: to rid the world of such terrible creatures that lived off of the pain of others. Each one had a defining character trait, and each had their own unique abilities. After years of being able to fight off these beings of darkness, the warriors vanished from the earth, never to be seen again.

Now, the year is 2019. Reapers and other dark beings are scattered throughout the world, causing pain wherever they set foot. As life continues to go on, we patiently wait for the day the earth finds the heroes it needs...

Who are the new heroes that will save us? Well, none other than a rag-tag group of high schoolers from a no name town, of course!

Welcome to the RP! It's designed to be a parody, as well as a tribute, to many of the amazing magical girl related series out there. Just letting you know, your character does not have to be magical or a girl to stay relevant in the storyline. It begins in a highschool known as Westside Central, in the fairly small fictional town of Fields, California. I recommend reading through some of the lore posted below in spoilers before making your character(s).

Soul gems are what enable a user to perform abilities that come with their trait. Once the Warrior Contract is made, a soul gem forms. It attaches itself to a person's soul once they accept it. Without a soul gem, the user is essentially powerless. In the event that a user is badly injured, they will retreat to their gemstone to heal. If them gem is destroyed while connected to someone, they perish as well. But don't worry: these gems are incredibly tough to destroy. A Soul Gem grants its host unique abilities, as well as weapon summoning. Of course, these gems have limits, but that will be covered in another area.

A Soul Gem has two parts: the gem itself, and the "receiver". The gem is given to the user, while the receiver is kept by the Magical Messenger. Receivers serve as a way to tell the status of a warrior. If it's colorful, the Warrior is healthy. If it's grayish black, the Warrior is corrupted. If it's completely clear, the Warrior has perished. These receivers can also be used as an energy source.

This is a receiver. Obviously, it isn't one of our team's receivers, as you can tell by the color and symbol on top. The symbol is always the same as the user's gem shape. While some users might have the same base trait, the way it manifests in the user greatly varies.

Corruption is when a Soul is turned dark. It's original views are warped into believing that the only way for it to get power is through the suffering of others. To put it simply, a human turns into a reaper. The corrupted forms of these former humans often coincides with their interests and/or personality. These Souls often form their own "realms": a pocket dimension, if you will. Much like their form, the realm is heavily influenced by their interests and personality. Many of them have servants created from the literal essence of darkness itself. Once entered, the only way to escape the Realm is to defeat the Soul. There are only a few ways to defeat a Corrupted Soul: capture it, finish it off, or heal it, reverting it to its original form. Of course, the healing process takes a lot of time and effort, since it affects the mind as well as the physical form. The Ancient Legion chose to capture the Souls and carefully store them until they could be healed.

NOTE: One does not have to die to become corrupted.

While Magical Warriors have Soul Gems, Reapers have what are known as Grief Seeds. You see, Soul Gems need to be "cleaned" of darkness in order to keep working properly. If a Soul Gem becomes too dim, it will turn into a Grief Seed, which in turn, turns the gem's host into a reaper. Don't panic: these Gems can be cleaned, with the help of discarded Grief Seeds. A Grief Seed can be collected once a witch is defeated. However, Grief Seeds can only be used to clean a Soul Gem a certain amount of times before exploding.

If the seed has a dark aura around it, it still contains a Soul.

Reapers aren't the only ones who can create realms: all magic users have the potential to. Only Reapers and highly experienced Magic Users can summon their own Realm. Within the realm, time passes at a slower pace (obviously not to Narnia's extent). Much like the realms of the Reapers, the Realms of all users reflect their interests and personality. Thankfully, you don't have to beat up the Realm's creator in order to escape, as long as it isn't a Reaper. Rather than beings made of darkness, a user can choose to have holograms or other, less sinister servants. Holograms can be used as training dummies or for other purposes.

Age: 16
Appearance:
Abilities: cryo/hydro kinesis, cloud manipulation.
Soul Gem: Patience
Weapon: Throwing Stars Designed to Resemble Snowflakes she can summon at will.
Personality: Jada tends come off as cold, emotionless, and uncaring. It's not that she hates everyone, she just doesn't feel the way the can. Because of this, she actually looks down on herself. She is an introvert, and prefers to be left alone.
Bio: Jada's life has been fairly normal: she has nice parents, she gets good grades, lives in a nice house, all that jazz. Despite this, Jada has a condition that impairs her ability to process emotions. Her mother tells her it's just something that runs in the family, but it doesn't stop her from feeling so...distant from other people. That's the reason she became a magical girl: to help others and find emotion. But she warns any newcomers that becoming a warrior is not everything it appears to be...

While he might appear to be uncaring and cruel at times, keep in mind his entire species was originally designed as logical, no nonsense beings who put their end goal above all else. He is responsible for training the "California Dreamers", as he calls them, a group of high school aged magic wielding warriors.

The personality of the character can honestly be anything, as long as the trait mentioned has a large impact on their personality.

Magical App
Name: Ethan Mackenzie.
Age: 16.
Appearance: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/dan ... 0826182825

[In this clothing]
http://static.tumblr.com/a9e6dc9c3507c1 ... wkcs88.png
Abilities: Light manipulation and levitation.
Soul Gem: Hope.
Motif: I'm a bit confused by this. If you mean his theme, or whatever, than no.
Weapon: http://img08.deviantart.net/8cb3/i/2016 ... a117fc.jpg
But the crystals are the same color as his soul gem.
Personality: Ethan is usually calm and respectful, yet independent and intelligent. He has a strong inner hope, a hope for a better world, a world where things are safer, a world without Reapers, yet understands that only time and effort can lead to this being achieved, and that everyone relies on him as a partner, with hatred of letting anyone down, being another normal person in the background and letting anyone be left in the dust, making Ethan a compassionate person, though not overly so like Mercy. Does poorly under stress, and when all hope seems to be lost, Ethan will persevere the longest, and though he doesn't have much experience, he has the most inner potential. Despite all this, to others he is just another average student.
Bio: Ethan was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and the rest doesn't really matter, have your character ask in the IC. With preserverence as another soul gem, theres not a tragic event I can draw from.
He became a magical girl? because of the hope he has, the hope of a brighter and more prosperous future.
Theme Song: N/A
RP Example: Look ye self if ye want.
Did Ya Read The Rules: Yes.
Miscellaneous: His best subject is Social Studies, has a cat named Hope and is a member of the 'Gaming Club'.

This should explain everything.

Question: When characters regenerate, do they have any control over how they regenerate, or do they just automatically reform after a given amount of time(e.g. Can they change their appearance, control their regeneration speed, chose when to regenerate)

Usually, it takes around a few hours to regenerate. If they're experienced and powerful enough, they can regenerate within minutes. As for the appearance, yes, yes they can change it if they chose to.
Note: They can't regenerate if the gem is placed inside a bubble or object.

Magical App
Name: Akara Tate
Age: 16
Appearance:

(Image)

Abilities: Telepathic empathy, healing (self healing and of others), and pain absorption (can also be used to help someone fight stronger.)
Soul Gem: Mercy
Weapon: Healing Septre (not used for fighting, only for magnifying healing effects)
Personality: Akara is very compassionate and sensitive. Since she can feel how others are feeling, she is very supportive and understanding. She is always willing to help anybody who is hurt, and will even absorb their pain so that they will not have to suffer. Although she isn't brave or particularly strong, her big heart and empathetic nature is always motivating.
Bio: Akara was born and raised on a farm in Fields, California. She gained her powers of mercy because of the compassionate characteristics she developed growing up. Her mother was always sick, so she would constantly be caring for her, while also caring for the several farm animals.

Other than placing a gem in a bubble or object, there's not really a way to prolong or delay regeneration. Of course, if a user is hurt really badly, regeneration might take a big longer.

Final question: While characters are regenerating, are they conscious?

Yes, but they don't have any way of telling what is happening outside of their gemstone.
