CoR2: Chronicles of Rhapsodia ~ The Second Rapture

[FONT="Chronicles of Rhapsodia ~

No need to worry, each CoR story sequel isn't actually a sequel. It's just taking place in the same worldly like setting with similar ideas. Like the final fantasy games in a way.

History:
< Start of ‘Back-background’.>
Many years ago Earth was a world of swords, steel and brute strength. From Feudal Japan to Medieval Europe the lands were ruled by Lords. We all know the basic outline, but what we didn’t realize was the lost sight of where interpretations of Magic came from. Truth be told, the history as we know it is nowhere near the actual history. The only remains of such a conclusion is the tales of mighty Wizards and beings who would call down lighting and wield fire. Beasts such as Loch Ness and Yetis, these beasts we sought in reality from historic sightings could only be spotted in our dreams. Our dreams… Now it’s time to enlighten you about the actuality of what went on back then, and what you’ll be facing.

This is a story that goes beyond our world, our dimension. Would you believe me if I told you that there was another world? One that was mirroring our Earth? Well, there is (RP wise here), and it’s a world called Rhapsodia. But what of this world? How does it influence the stories of ancient Magics and ungodly beasts? It is because such things are the remnants of that world, when it became a part of ours. Rhapsodia is a world thought only to be seen in a book of fairy tales. Where magic and demons, as well as spirits and wizards all live. This is a world eternally caught in an age of swords and sorcery, of adventure and great deeds. But on that note, it is also one of great evil and shadows, a world of fighting and even chaos. Sound familiar? Almost like our world, but what we lack is the power our world wont let us take hold.

Rhapsodia, a world filled with mysterious forces and great spirits, knowledge and skill. It is a world written in the essence of complete fantasy. It is what our world isn’t, yet at the same time it is the very same (Confusing, huh?), hence being described as a mirror of our world. But what force keeps it away from our eyes? What great wall separates our sight and our potential? It is an embodiment of Reality, at the same time it is the void of reality. It is called the Void Dream. Some may call it God, some could say it’s the will of the Cosmos. But it is interpreted as anything you can imagine. But it’s usually thought of as a place, where the body of our existence stays and holds together the bonds of reality.

The Void Dream, which is the very wall that separated our worlds had once opened, and Earth and Rhapsodia were once connected for quite some time. The people and many creatures of both worlds traveled back and forth through a bridge that was called the “Road of Dreams”. Loch Ness as well as evidence of creatures like dragons and the many tales of Magic all came from the other side, where the world that seemed to be written inside a book existed.

On another note:

Rhapsodian Lore indicates that there was one a blade, thought to be forged by the Gods. It was the Avatar of the Fantasy world, and thusly dubbed “Rhapsody, the Blade of Eternity”. Many had sought the blade, hoping to either wield it’s massive power, or to keep it from those who would attempt at the latter. Legend also tells of one day, when the blade will fall from a sacred light and appear before the a chosen soul with a worthy cause. The blade would then lend it’s power to that person. There had been many conflicts and as well there had been many gallant heroes. But none had ever been aided by the Legendary sword.

>End of ‘Back-Background’<

Present day in the middle of ‘Somewhere in this country’ North America. It is the year 2007, winter is nearing ever so fast. Squireston, a quaint little suburban community right off the side of ’Gallant City’ has been the leader in education and order for the past few decades. Their school system is nearly fight free and 80% of the students go on to college after graduation. The local high school, Waester Central Highschool has been at rivalry with the Gallant city high school “Donner-Que Academy” for this time period, and though things never get too aggressive (Outside sporting competitions) they have an outward competitiveness against each other that‘s been born from their years in existence.

Waester Central High School, the last school you’d ever think to have something happen. But for the past few months there have been an increase in missing persons and most of them in particular have been students from this school. Some say their may be a crazed loon out kidnapping them all. At least more crazed then the students who ’supposedly’ witnessed a few of the acts. They say that from a blinding light they were attacked by some strange beasts, and when the light was gone they were alone, and only a knapsack or book which remained of their peers were found.

Strange enough? Well, the upcoming Championship game between Waester High school and Donner-Que is coming up real soon, and all parents are advised to provide supervision for their teenage children at the game. But something just doesn’t seem right. Their hasn’t been a full day of sunlight for these weeks, heck, the weeks have been sunless. Squireston has been so dark that even the birds don’t chirp during the day, or what’s left of them. One could really start to wonder what this would mean..
```
The Arcadian Age, Rhapsodia. The winters have lightly kissed the landscaped of Xemnia, the beautiful continent that makes the most of our world. In the far off distance the mountains seem to be emollient with the spray of the dual moonlight. Our Twin Moons, Romu the large and Raimu small have been apparent for every night in the last few weeks. It can be felt that they are trying to tell us something we may not know. But I can feel it, I can feel it in my bones. The Void Dream is shaking and churning and the Oni are swarming at the masses.. They are following a sign of their time. I can only hope that we find a solution to these congregations, for if their numbers rise too high there may be no hope for us.

These few weeks have been weary, and I think it threatens the world that mirrors our own. Already have we discovered artifacts of people pulled from the Celestial Blue Sphere (Earth) that haven’t survived the teeth and claws of the Oni. Who is behind this? What is it that causes such an uprising of these foul beasts? Questions even I, Arch Sage cannot fully answer. But the Darkness is looming ever so close, and our fears will only strengthen it’s will. That I can assure anyone.

The World of Rhapsodia:

The Continents

Xemnia: The most fertile and diverse of the three main continents. To the southwest are the more mountainous areas, and to the northeast are the forests plains and prairies. It’s the largest of the three main continents.

Hadjut: The Second largest continent, known for it’s harsh deserts and badlands, as well as wastelands and craggy mountains. People who live here are challenged every day to prosper in life due to it’s conditions. To the north side is the main wasteland areas, to the south are the deserts and mountainous regions.

Zorla ( Otherwise fully pronounces as Zorlamo ): Of to the east between what would be the national lines fron Hadjut and Xemnia, would be the smallest main continent of Rhapsodia. This continent is usually either frozen over or arctic tundra. It’s conditions challenge the very warmth of life itself, though the further southwest you go on that continent the warmer it is. To the north west it’s highest peak is Mt.Dalascade, where the once prevalent Ice Oni tribe thrived. Not much is known about them in recent terms.

Races of Rhapsodia: This world holds many races. You can use your imagination here, because as stated before Rhapsodia is a world like out of a fantasy book. Just no overdoing your bloodlines. I doubt an orc would fall in love with an elf, then their child with a draconian, and then theirs with a ghost demon. That would be somewhat fishy.

The Rhapsodic Rapture:

There will be a couple kind of character designs, and well, here’s the lowdown.

Rapture characters: These are the characters that will be chosen by the Blade of Eternity; Rhapsody to go to Rhapsodia. They will each receive a piece of the holy blade, which would form into the weapon that best suit’s the character. They will also change race based on what they are like and who they are. So these characters have a bit more of an expansion on their sign ups. They’ll be connected with either Donner Que or Waester Central, so keep that in mind.

Rhapsodian Characters: People who have full histories born and raised in Rhapsodia. Depending on the race this kind of characters social status and place in the world can vary greatly. Not too many know about Earth, but those that do call it the Blue Celestial Sphere, because instead of the twin moons, once a year the Earth can be seen in the sky. So, have fun with them, and tie them into the main deal.
--------------------------------

Here's the Sample Character Sheet:

Name: (Real, and if of the rapture, your Rhapsodian name )
Age: (Could depend on race)
Gender:
Rhapsodian/Rapture: ( Your character lies under.. )
Race: ( If Rhapsodian this is obvious, but if you are a rapture character this determines what race you turn into when you enter the world. )
Appearance:
Noted Weapons: (Rapture characters get a weapon when the Rapture happens, so if you have a rapture character here state the weapon you receive when that point comes. )

Personality:

**Tetsanosuke Kirikami** · Nov 29, 2007 03:20 PM

Sorry, Double post. But I need to display my character so.. Yeah.

My character:

Name: Xavier Kollunka ( Daitenshi )
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Rhapsodian/Rapture: Rapture
Race: He becomes a Spirit Daemon. Like a ghost/person.
Appearance:

When he is adorned with normal clothing at his school he usually takes on the jeans, steel toes, black leather jacket with a sleeveless shirt. He has hair that is unusually white for his age, yet full and flourishing. His eyes were always a weird shade of deep crystal water blue.

But when the time for rapture comes, his clothes shift to that of black leather sleeves pulled up each of his shoulders and around to make small protrude-ments towards the back end and downward. His face becomes marked with a long stripe down his left cheek, his hair grows out and pulls down towards his back with a tie.

He wears a black leather and silk vest, the silk connecting to his arm sleeves at the shoulders and pulling down slightly over his bottoms which are baggy near the top, but tighten as they run down. These are also black and glistening.

Noted Weapons:
The Left Wing of Ryuto, or otherwise called the TsuRyu Blade. This weapon is a 'winglet' that floats at the left shoulder over his back as he moves, and never strays far from it's wielder.

The It's called a blade because from it's indentation a blade slides out which as the ability to fan out into something like a wing. If not wielded by hand, then it can be used at his back by his will to glide slightly. It's main color scheme is silver and black, but the blade that slides out is of a golden luster.

History:

Xavier was a Russian exchange student who found his way into thestates. Through his studies and endless search for knowledge back in the motherland he had learned fluent English. But he was reluctant to go to the States, because of his perception of how they were. Everyday in Waester high he finds more reason to yearn for home. Nobody ever approached him, no one interested in him. He didn't care really, but like any one else he knew he needed some sort of companion.

His days had went on and on, excelling at his top classes, being silent as well as sated... for then. He started to question life as the 'grand Adventure' and he knew that he yearned for more. This brought him to wonder "does any one else feel this way?' The attacks and abductions as of late had compelled him to investigate himself. One night he made it to the school yard, and saw the flashing lights and bellowing cries of something far more greater then any stalker..

He could feel his heart pounding, his stomach churning.. in that light laid the answer to his desires.. and yet he knew he couldn't risk the leap. Whatever was taking the students would sure get him.

When he found out about the upcoming football game he knew.. He could feel the time would come on that night..

Personality: Usually cold and independent. So very open minded and somewhat.. unusual to say the least. But his vast intelligence make for a strained logic and a weak system of honor he upholds. Other then that he is a determined young man.

Okay, awaiting sign ups.

EDIT~~~~

Yeah well the rules.

No God Modding~ Anything close to this will be considered as such.
Follow the forums general rules.
Of course the GM has the right to ask for changes or holding entries. (On characters and what not.)
Basically I uphold the power of Game Master Status, being the creator. No worries, I'm not evil~orz.

Yay! It's up! Here ya go Tetsano.

Name: Nakamura
Age: between 400-500
Gender: Male
Rhapsodian/Rapture: Rhapsodian
Race: Nakamura is the last of an extinct race. That race was of oni whom were known to look like the perfect human. Yet through this perfection can the strong feeling of pain. Their flesh was pale white, skin smooth as marble. Hair color usually varied around. The only time when they did not feel pain was when they made love to each other, even so little actually did the deed, account the loss of the pain felt unantural. The name of the race is lost, even in the memory of Nakamura.

Appearance: (No picture T.T) Nakamura stands at 6 feet tall. He is bald, yet covering his right eye is a pale white mask with a rose gong through the eye peep. (For a more visual on the mask, think Phantom of the Opera, with a flower through the eye.). His left is a violet color, seeming pure. His skin is as his race is described, smooth and pale. He is skinny yet built, he bears no shirt, only exposing his torso. Covering is left side, where the heart of the race is literally located, is a red crystal surrounded by glack organic material, that covers his left breast, part of his shoulder and extends a little to his back. On his back, down the center is the tatoo of a red rose. His pants are best described as the sterotypical ninja. Black, bagging with sin guards.

Noted Weapons: Through an unatural ability of his race to endure, pain, always feel it, his race had the ability to summon for a weapon from their flesh. Nakamura can bring forth three in this case. Ripping out from his palm is a sword, much like a straight edge blade, no hilt, no gaurd, as acustom to pain he can still keep balance with no guard. Also ripping from his left forarm would be a long red vein, forming a whip, blades also can form on the "whip". And the last from his wrist hand, the index knuckle and the pinky knuckle, two blades from.

History: Back around 500 years ago when his race was in the fruit of it's existence, Nakamura was born, but with the family name Dracul Necromax. As destined life went well for him, he learned to be a fighter for the race, and of course destined to fall in love. His love was a female known as Rose, some say they were a perfect match. She as the race had pale skin, with a slight...pink rosey tint to it. Making her different, Dracul admired this, and her showing her love, made a tattoo of a rose on his back. Life went directly swell for them, until one day...the calamity of the race. A war broke out, tribes f Oni came together and Nakamura's race fought and fought and fought. One day that beheld no fighting, Dracul wne to find rose, only to see thier home had been attacked. He found Rose there, half dead, dying. He held her in his arms, watching as blood poured from her. Her final words were "Promise me...." She couldn't finish her sentence. Her death traumatised Dracul, some say he over-reacted. He grew a harboring hatred for all those that existed, fighting. His fighting spirit and inner anger form into what is known as Nakamura. The ideal of ending all fighting, destroying all existence to bring forth a peace that must be obtained. Peace through not existing. He promised it on the death of Rose, in her name. He knew in order to acheive this he'd have to become immortal. So he'd went to a wizard whom gave him the red crystal now implanted into his chest. The wizard said as he left, "The Crystal only gives you the immunity to age and disease. You'll never die of the two. BUT, if the crystal gets destroyed, you'll resume to the age you were when you obtained this crystal, and die like any other. Now Nakamura roams, and fights to end fighting. Hoping to find his "True enemy" and be at peace with his love.

Personality: Nakamura is quick to anger. Those he converses with, he can be rude, and is rarley polite. He is a cross of nice and mean. HE can betray as quickly as he allies up.
Random Tidbits: Nuthin'

She has deep Emerald Green eyes and with long black silky hair. However, when the Rapture happens Meka quickly changes. Meka's hair becomes white and is pulled into a updo that shows two long strands of her hair over her chest and the rest of her hair seems to be tangled around a ponytail that reaches the middle of her back. Her clothes switches into a black leather vest and pants with knee-high black boots, she also has a small metal shoulder guard on her left shoulder with a black cloak.

Noted Weapons: Twin swords named 'Havock and Tharic'. Havock is designed with Elfvn works and its beauty is matched by its sharpness. Tharic is rather plain unless tainted in blood. When Tharic is drenched in blood ancient readings appear from Elfvish scrolls.

History: Meka was born across seas on a naval base because of her father. They returned to the States she feels very indifferent. Meka's mother had tried to have childern before, but none had lived. Although Meka survived, her mother died after giving birth. So she was raised at ther hands of her father. Shortly after her father resigned from the Navy, they moved to Gallant City.
Meka was instantly welcomed with open arms into her new school. She was even noticed by the Quaterback of the football team at Donner-Que Academy. Meka felt like nothing more could go worng. Then rumors started to fly that stundents were being taken from their rival school Waester Central. Meka didn't think anything of it until she was walking past Waester Central and was blinded by a white light then seen strange beasts appear. Meka fled home to tell her father. He became worried and told she could not attend the football game. But Meka has a stronge will and wants to know more. So when the night of the football game comes Meka will be there one way or another.

Personality: Meka looks at the best in everyone, even if they do her worng. She is very open-minded and will vocal her opinions honestly. She can sometimes be rude and cold, but only when she tries to push those she cares for away, in order to keep them safe. Also she can be very flirtatious.

Hello Tetsano!!! It's about time.

Name: Dart Tryce

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Rhapsodian/Rapture: Rapture

Race: Dart Changes into a Bard (Elf)

Appearance: Dart has short flat black hair with blue eyes. During school hours Dart dresses in a Black Tuxedo with a rose in the jacket pocket, he wears dress shoes and wears white gloves. But during the Rapture he wears (This: http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...20Ken/Nils.jpg ) But he has black hair and his eyes turn green.

Noted Weapons: His weapon when the rapture happens he recieves a small flute that can control the earh

History: Dart grew up in Florida and when he was little, moved to Squireston when he was seven. His father was a musician so as Dart was growing up he was always intrested in music, he was learning every type of instrument, and experimenting with all types of music. No one knows much about him except he is the son of the famous Vincent Von Tryce the Guitarist. When Dart was in Florida he always had a bodyguard which kept him isolated from the world, which made him unable to actually talk to anyone or make friends. Also because he is the son of Vincent, he is usually left alone because of the fear of saying the wrong thing.

Personality: Dart is very quiet when it comes to anything social, he does try to speak but nothing ever seems to come out because he is a very shy guy. Dart doesn't like to be bothered when playing music unless it is a compliment. Dart is a very gentle polite guy, even though it may take a while for him to open up around you.

**Tetsanosuke Kirikami** · Nov 30, 2007 07:24 PM

So far you are all good to go. Just remember the Rapture Characters each have a weapon formed from a piece of the divine blade as stated above.

**Tetsanosuke Kirikami** · Dec 16, 2007 10:25 PM

Well I suppose this idea will have to go back into the old Vault.

>.<

Oh well, maybe next time. We just don't have enough folks signed up.
