planning The Citadel- Human/Anthro RP

[Aurora Lights 206]

Citadel, a specailly designed city built by the government designed to keep selected occupants in and not let them escape. But it's just a regular city other than that, with the main attraction being in the center of the city, the city is actually built around this GIANT arena. About 3 miles in diameter, the whole city though is only 5 square miles.

 

Now, about these specific individuals... They consist of three main groups, Alphas, Betas, and Centurions. These three groups make up about a third of the 750 thousand people and ponies that live there (ponies being Anthro).

 

Alphas are normal human beings, but they all have specific and amazing abilities, they can shoot fire out of their hands, conjure amazing beams of lightning from their hands, or use telekinesis, etc. Any ability that you can think of, an Alpha will have it. Now, unfortunately All Alphas were immediately sent to a government regulated and run orphanage specially designed for them. All Alphas had to be sent in to the orphanage when they were babies (or when the parents discovered they were Alphas) because the government will arrest anyone that harbors an Alpha outside of Citadel's land. Alphas can also become a being called a Remnant, this is the ultimate form of any Alpha and is said to only be obtainable via being completely calm and focusing all energy on one idea, of which can be anything. 

 

Betas are anthropomorphic ponies( or other species) that were sort of a science experiment gone wrong that was conducted by the joint work of Alien Technology and Government curiosity. Betas are not particularly ability inclined, though they all are stronger, faster, and in some cases smarter than Alphas. Their animalistic traits allow them to yield a higher capacity for movement speed, strength, all five senses, and they are normally found in groups of three or more. Unfortunately for Betas, their inferior numbers mean constant and sometimes violent discrimination against them. But they are, for the most part, just like anyone else. Betas have an ability called Animosity, which allows them to take on more strength, endurance, speed, agility, and basically make them better, though this can only be obtained via being cornered or endangered to a great extent.  

 

Centurions are basically the Gate Keepers and Guards of the city, making sure that any Alpha or Beta that gets out of line is punished for it. They are the elite of the elite, the fastest, strongest, and the most powerful forms of Alphas and Betas. Of course, being a Centurions, they are monitored very closely by the government and are discouraged from contact with Alphas or Betas, even normal citizens. Centurions are very rare actually, considering there can only be 15 at a time to make sure that they can't rebel against the city nor the government.

 

And finally, the Arena. The Arena is the battleground that anyone can join if they wish. Arena Battles are to determine where you are on skill level, and yes, you do have to train yourself to make your skills stronger. There is sort of a ranking system, 1-100. 1 being the absolute lowest, 100 being just below a Centurion. You can win money or prizes and sponsorships when you fight in an Arena, and there are hundreds upon hundreds of contestants that apply at the beginning of the "Battle Season" that get weeded out by the strongest of the strong in the final stages of Battle Season. Like any other bracket tournament, two people (or two teams of 5 or less) fight each other based on skill level and rank. When you win a tournament in Battle season, you'll be given $1,000- $10,000,000 Based on your fight, your use of tactics, preplaced bets, and the numbers given to you by the judges.

Doh! Thanks for telling me I forgot the RP Genre. But it's supposed to be an action/SOL/fighter. It's kind of a hybrid of sorts, and it should also have some drama in the mix (obviously)

Listen guys, I'm sorry but if your a Beta you can't have an ability, unless your parents were a Beta and Alpha mix, then I suppose it could be as so, just be sure to include that in the description of your character's past in the actual RP please. Also, if possible keep the abilities to a minimum please, I mean, there are sub divisional abilities from base abilities, like if you have flames you can fly because of the thrust from the flames, but please, please keep that into consideration. I've wanted to do this RP for a long time and I know I may sound strict, but I really want this RP to do well. Other than that, your both accepted. Thank you for signing up.

[reader8363 1,281]

I guess Travelture could be alpha

and it could fit with shadow's back story. Raised by an alpha mother and the beta is nowhere to be found or he could be a centurion

A Centurion would probably fit him.

[reader8363 1,281]

yeah, is it possible I can do both of them? Does the arena only apply to alphas and betas

[Drago Ryder 641]

Gale being a mix of an alpha and beta would probably fit. Also, Gale would be an anthro dragoness, so it would make sense for her to have the abilities of a dragon.

[Aurora Lights 206]

@@reader8363,

 

Anyone can enter the Arena. Even a Centurion, as a matter of fact, about 5-6 Centurions enter the Arena per season, it makes for some interesting battles. And yes you can enter both characters.

 

@@Drago Ryder,

 

Yeah, I know, I'm just saying it's ok to have abilities that pertain to your Beta or Alpha. Adam has Telekinesis, so he can also levitate and fly to an extent. So yeah, having flames would be ok, especially since she's a Dragoness.

I'm open to suggestions- keeping in mind this is mostly a slice-of-life character, I don't really do RP combat. Not that I can't, I just prefer not to.

 

I have a few other character designs I'm thinking about adding in, but for starters my "Headmistress from Hell" will do.

My friend, it says the setting is on Earth, and the background details will be released in the actual RP. I've intentionally left out those details, so it could, you know, gain more momentum in the actual RP.

I've been hankering for a decent brawler rp. 

 

Alice Belov 

 

Age: 18

 

Race: Human

 

Gender: Female 

 

Sexuality: Pansexual

 

Appearance: A pallid looking girl with blond hair that is deeply disturbed and disturbing at the same time. Her appearance and size fluctuates all the time, ranging from being as small as an ant to being as gigantic as a building, and reality itself appears to warp around her in what she refers to as the "wonderland effect." Typically she wears variations of the same blue and white gown with stockings and buckled shoes, but these can morph and change in appearance just as much as she does. She's typically seen with her constructs like the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Hatter, which are figments of her imagination made real within her wonderland effect.

 

Power: The Wonderland Effect;  

The Wonderland Effect is in a sense, a mixture of psychically constructed hard light holograms and partial reality warping. The longer she is in a given area with decent lighting, including moonlight or a dim lightbulb, the more influence she has over that light in constructing her wonderland effect, which are holograms with a physical presence as long as they are within her area of effect. The more light she's exposed too, the more solid and "real" the holograms become until they begin emitting their own light sources and sustaining themselves. Other things that are affected in this radial area are Space-time and the density of physical objects (think ant man's pym particles). Anything that comes in her active Wonderland Effect and remains in there too long can be subject to time distortions, can be shrunk and grown, and have gravity behave weirdly around them. There also seems to be an ambient mist within her wonderland effect that causes hallucinations for those who breathe it in.  

 

History: 

 

Alice Belov has been responsible for a great number of deaths over the years of her young life. Entire Towns, orphanages and research facilities ended up being overrun with her demented visions that were made reality, and her many characters ended up taking out all whom tried to escape the little girls troubled mind. Eventually they found a way to contain her, locking her up in a thick walled metal room with no light what so ever so her Wonderland effect could not take place without them completely controlling the situation. Over those next ten years they were both attempting to test its limits as well as make her be able to function in the outside world without being a walking disaster. What they didn't seem to realize was she was holding onto every shred of light they let in on their "controlled experiments" until she was able to conjure up enough of her effect to break out of her cell. She didn't fight them though, she merely said she was ready to walk about and try not to cause trouble. Eager to see what she could do with some conditioning, they decided to let her out on the grounds that if she caused to big of an incident they would be forced to lock her back up.
