Dusk. The landscape was a glossy meadow as the rays of last evenings white moonlight shone down. A shadowy figure strode across the silent grassland. A dark air surrounded him as his black cloak flapped with the small angry gust that broke the night's silence. He threw his hands up, and laughed, scales cascading down his arms, blood red was the color of his skin.
The maniac shook the entire world with his laughter, so powerful and evil was the voice emitted. A darkness spread across the land, and three castles were built on each end as if to surround the spot where he was standing on opposite sides of the world. Each had a ruler, and an army of dark knightly turtles guarded each castle, as each had a special treasure which was the only threads which could stop this evilness - a sacred jewel about the size of the average man's fist. One was bloody ruby red, the jewel of power and of a burning hope. The next was sapphire blue, the jewel of pureness and truth. The last, the jewel of light, the power over darkness itself. Together, these jewel's powers could just weaken the evil one responsible for evil lurching across the land, for otherwise he was completely invincible. If his power was weakened, he may just be able to be destroyed by the power of a group of heroes that seek to cause an end to this ever growing darkness. Alone...these jewels were useless and yielded no power what-so-ever.
But what of this evil one? He was known as Bowser, and had come back more than powerful than before to control the entire world. His only flaw were three jewels which contained the powers of hope, truth, and light. Not even the evilest of enemies could banish those gifts. A large castle was erected where he stood with the darkest of foes and enemies who seemed to have a darkness inside of them rather than a soul itself. Forcefields surrounded the castle so that no mortal could enter. Enemies were bloodthirsty masters themselves. The castle itself could burn one who set foot inside in seconds with an everlasting darkness. One had to truly prove themselves in order to set foot in this castles' boundaries. One had to have learned from their past mistakes. It was almost as if one had to have a soul of sheer light to banish this evil of the land.
What if this evil was not stopped? It was close to impossible to be stopped to begin with. Every day, yoshi's lives were shrouded in darkness. Innocent yoshis alike were falling victim to the evil inside of them. If darkness was shattered, would everything be restored to its normal order? Right now, this is the dawn of darkness. Do you have the guts to try to prove yourself a worthy hero?
Introduction~
Welcome to the Dawn of Darkness RP! This is one of my many RP's, and as many know, my RPs are usually not limited, that many things can happen. Including this RP, to play you don't have to follow the story line, of course, then you wouldn't be a main character. In this RP, boundaries are limitless, and you can go beyond your imagination! You are the artist of your character in this RP!
Of course, there are some Rules and Boundaries you must follow, or you will be asked to leave this RP expierence.
Rules~
1. NO GOD MODDING - I can't stress this rule enough. Although many are familiar with what god-modding is, I'll take time to explain it. YOU ARE NOT GOD, therefore you are not super powerful. You can't accomplish complete victory of this RP by yourself. You can't control another player's character. This means if Player 1 is in the middle of a plot Player 2 is involved with, Player 1 cannot speak/decide for Player 2. Player 1 must wait for Player 2 to post again, even if it may be a day, or even a three day wait.
2. Activeness Counts - In this RP, if one of the heroes (or main characters) must leave for a few days, this RP will completely crash. If you must leave on an important vacation, a trip to the bathroom, etc. etc. for x amount of days (x being a greater number than 2 or 3,) please tell us in this thread, or send me a PM telling me so, this way someone can act out your character for this purpose only. If you give no warnings what-so-ever that you are leaving/you are not active for 3+ days in the RP thread, you are assumed to be quiting the RP.
3. The Respect system - show respect for other players, no fighting aloud in this RP. This rule also co-insides with the strength of players. (This will be explained later.)
4. No bull/back stabbing - Everyone is either a hero or a neutral (doesn't take part in the storyline adventure.) No one can be that of evil/dark origin, ex. you cannot stop heroes from completing the story line, no can you slay neutrals from their own play expierence. You can be of a dark origin if you wish to be a hero, possibly one who is corrupted.
5. This RP runs over the span of more than just a week - it cannot be completed in a weeks time for the world is much bigger than that of a few posts.
6. Basic grammar, spelling, and maturity levels needed. This RP isn't for children, for fighting scenes may get graphic, and posting must contain appropriate language, full words, sentence structure, and a decent grammar (well enough to understand.) Posts containing 3 words or less are in violation of this rule.
Character Creation~
Alright, so you're ready to start! Characters in this RP start "naked," or without any equipment or weapons. You must think of a FAIR way to obtain weapons, armor, learn spells or abilities, and find items. Role Players cannot have godly weapons, armor, spells, or abilities. They cannot have, lets say, full soldier mail with in the third day of starting this RP. Fighting weak monsters, perhaps koopa troopas is the key to becoming stronger. Armor and monsters must be found or originated by Player. Perhaps a starter guide will give you a decent armor set for a beginner "hero," or maybe you have some things that you could use around your very own house. There is no level up system!!
~Some ideas for obtaining things: making them by purchasing/finding appropriate material, finding the item itself from a defeated monster (when a group accomplishes defeat of a castle enemy, they could drop armor, weapons, or other valuables) purchasing the item itself. How to earn money? Off of monsters or selling finds/armor. Quests? sure you can make quests up. If rewards, make the quest decent (neutrals would probably spend most of their time going on their own quests, etc.)
Any player can hold any weapon, but other players would still like to know a description about yourself - you must also include how you are involved with this RP. EACH CHARACTER MAY HAVE ONE FAIR SPECIAL ABILITY.

~Special Ability - Call Wyvern (calls a dragon to fight by his side. This dragon cannot wear armor, equip weapons, or learn new spells/abilities. This wyvern's strength is equal to it's owner's, and possesses these abilities:
Breath attack: a fiery breath that can melt mostly anything.
Basic use of Claws: swipe, slash, etc.
Basic use of Body Structures: Tail, Head, etc. slashes, lashes, head butts.
-a red yoshi with black stripes, and a blue collar with a circular tag
-reserved, lacks leadership qualities and decision making
-shows some interest in traveling in a group, and meeting new friends (looks for friends as to be a close, sibling relationship)
BIO: A dream, an evil one laughing, breaking everything red knew. Who was he? Why did he want control over the world?
red snapped awake in a deep sweat. "Thats funny..." red said as he looked outside. It was still dark out when it was suppose to be morning. Then red remembered the dream he had, and stepped outside of his little hut.
An island secluded for the yoshi race. It was usually tropical and peaceful, bright and sunny. Everyone seemed still asleep. There was no chatter of the yoshis today. Red went back inside. He lived alone. He wondered what was going on. He grabbed a large log he was working on for the past few days which resembled a Great Katana, and tied it to his waist.
***READ EVERYTHING. ALL THE RULES BEFORE EVEN THINKING ABOUT POSTING. IF YOU VIOLATE ANY OF THE RULES, YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE RP.
