The worlds are coming unraveled.
The very fabric of the multiverse is starting to come apart at the seams, and no one knows why.
For uncounted Aeons there were many worlds, many realities, all existing separately from each other, never touching, never interacting. Worlds where Magic was common place, where it never existed at all, where it was dominated by the rich, where it was shunned by all but the poor. Elves, demons, monsters, mechas, animals, unspoiled wilderness, ruined war-torn worlds, every possibility of existence... existed. It was balanced. But now the worlds have begun to interact, portals have begun opening, seemingly at random. Everyone is scrambling to take advantage of the new opportunites being offered, but worlds were never meant to co-exist like this. Once a portal opens, everything changes. Magic and technology go into flux, balanced ecosystems are upset by new predators, uncounted wars have begun through the portals, and yet all of this is minor compared to the fate of the realities themselves. There have been rumors... That if too many portals open in one reality the reality begins to fold in on itself, time itself coming unraveled before it simply ceases to exist.
And more portals are opening every day...
And there's the intro! The basic idea behind this was to let it be a crossroads roleplay, with most creatures and histories allowed, while still giving it a sense of urgency. Now onto the rules.
1. While you can be powerful, you still can't godmode. The realities are in flux, you might have been a god on your own plane, but it's doubtful you're at full power now.
2. If you want to roleplay a jerk, fine. But don't make life unreasonably difficult for the rest of us. This IS a setting where many people of diffrent types mix, so don't try to start fights with everyone different then you.
3. Go ahead and post your characters, I maintain just two basic rules here:
3a. Give a description if nothing else. The rest of us need to know what we're looking at. You don't need to give a backstory if you don't want to, it will all come out in the rp anyway.
3b. As I mentioned in rule 1, you are not all powerful. you might have been once, but considering the number of worlds now open and the effects that's having, you aren't now. Mages are finding their magic to be unreliable, technology malfunctions more then usual, supernatural powers are doing strange new things that you don't know how to control... Try to keep that in mind.
Other then that, go nuts! I'll put in new rules if they become neseccary, and I'll be posting a character of my own in a minute.:squee:
