Earth, Year 20XX

The world has seen many technological marvels. Society has advanced. So have the games that people play. A new craze that has everybody joining the world of competitive play is a game called "Charaload". In this game, people face each other off using solidified holograms of their favorite characters! Technology has advanced so far, though, that these "Charahols" are, indeed, sentient beings. They have personalities, feelings, and all that. Many people develop deep friendships with their Charahols, and treat them as they would any real person. Though there are some that don't take that view.

For many, many years, this game has been the main use of Charahols... however... there is a Charahol user with dark ambitions. It is unknown what this Charahol user is planning, who he/she is... however, what is certain is that he/she has, for whatever reason, kidnapped loved ones of many of the top ranking Charaload players. So, our true story begins...



Well, that's the premise... now here's how we're gonna do things. ;)

Basically, this is one of those "journey" RPs. You have a character or two, and you set off on an adventure... a quest. Anywho, there isn't a character limit, per say, but at the same time, there kinda is... I'll get to that in a moment, but first let me explain something else regarding characters.

You HAVE to have an OC. No two ways about it. Your OC will be a Charaload player, and have a Charaloader device on one of his/her wrists. The Charaloader looks like this:

You use this to summon your Charahols, or to communicate with them. You can have ONLY 20 Charahols per Charaload player. This should be more than enough. Now, this is what I meant by there being no character limit, yet at the same time, ya. See, you can have as many Charaload players as you want (all of them MUST be OCs), but each one can only have a maximum of 20 Charahols (and minimum of 2).

Charahols live in Cyberspace... and they pretty much don't mind their accommodations. Afterall, they can roam freely throughout a whole digital world, right? Charahols can be communicated with using the Charaloader, and this is also how they are summoned. Only 2 Charahols can be brought out at once, but any of them can be communicated with at any point. When brought out into the "real world", Charahols can also interact with other Charahols that other players have brought out.

So... what the heck are Charahols, anyway? Or rather... who are they? That's the best part! Anybody you can think of! While your Charaload player must be an OC, your Charahols can be ANYBODY from any work of fiction! What a twist! [/M. Night Shyamalan]

You can choose to have some sort of common theme with your Charahols, but it's not necessary. There really isn't much restriction in who you can use. Now, I do want to state, though, that though there is a max of 20 Charahols you can sign-up as... be considerate of others and just sign-up for a few at first, okay? That way, we can give everyone the chance to get characters they like! Also, while you can have more than one character from a certain series, please try not to hog a lot of characters from one series. Try to keep your Charahols diverse, in case someone else wants to use characters from that series.

One last thing before we start these sign-ups... you can choose to be friends with other Charaload players (like... for story purposes, it might good if a few Charaload players already know each other...), but we can talk more about that later. The most important point of this aspect, imo, however, is that, whether or not any Charaload players already know each other or not, there should be sets of teams... I think this will work better than having people going off on their own... though that's probably a no-brainer.

Feel free to have your OC be good or evil! Or even neutral! I have a lot planned out for this RP, so if you have any questions/concerns, again... feel free to ask away!

Alright, guys... here's how the sign-ups work! For your Charaload player, this is what the sign-up is like:

Code:
 
[B]Charaload Player Name:[/B]
[B]Gender:[/B]
[B]Age:[/B]
[B]Alliance:[/B]
[B]Charahols:[/B]
[B]Brief Biography:[/B]
[B]Appearance:[/B]


And for your Charahols:

Code:
 
[B]Charahol Name:[/B]
[B]Series:[/B]
[B]Apparent Gender:[/B]
[B]Charaload Player/Owner:[/B]
[B]Appearance:[/B]


Well... hopefully I haven't confused everyone... heh, but ya, if there's any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Let's get this show on the road! I'll sign up first!




Charaload Player Name: Aru Jei
Gender: Male
Age: 12
Alliance: Good
Charahols: Megaman, Sakura Kasugano, Spider-Man, Ranma Saotome

Aru isn't quite sure why this happened, but he's decided the best way to find out is by following his gut feeling. Something inside of him knows that he'll find his answers by going to Characity! However... Characity is very far away, and lots of danger lies between home and Characity. However, his trusty Charahols are by his side, ready to defend!

Another thing to keep in mind... excerpted from later in this thread:

Hmmmm very intresting! I can't wait to get this started!!!

Oh one more question I may need in the future. Right now I'm just playing as a sole pokemon but if I wanted to playas a trainier (like Ash or Misty) would I also have their pokemon at my disposal?


Clown Prince of Crime

I've actually been giving this a lot of thought, so I'm glad you brought that up, CR. Now, Pokemon Trainers would be tricky to pull off as Charahols, but I'm aware that a lot of people may want to use them, so I'm going to change a few things around, now. Originally, I wanted all Charaload Players to be OCs, however, I'm changing this now.

So, Charaload Players can be actual characters, not just OCs, but ONLY if they have no superpowers or extremely astonishing physical or mental abilities. They have to seem like real-life people. That being the case, most Pokemon Trainers, Digimon Tamers, Digidestined, and Card Duelists (WITHOUT spirits or millennium items and stuff like that) could be acceptable to use. They have to be average, everyday people, though. No superpowers. No ninja skills. No being possessed by an ancient Egyptian Pharaoh. Just... plausible, average people. This is the only way to bring in non-OCs as Charaload Players, but try not to go overboard, alright? ;)


Anywho, this first post will also keep track of who's using who. Also... I might come up with a sig design later, but right now I'm hungry, so... ya. Anywho, here's who has who so far:

Hmmm...

I want to join really badly. But with all the school stuff that has neglected me from being on the SRB full time, I dont think I would be able to keep up.

Great idea though!

By that time we might be in need of a new storyline anyway, and then you could join in and add a new twist! ^_^

Sounds good to me, Cojo. ^_^

This RP won't start for a few days, anyway. Weekends are usually bad days for me to be able to do anything, and with tomorrow being Saturday... well, ya. :p

So, if we get enough people to sign-up during the weekend, we might be able to start this on Monday. We'll see how it goes, though.

It's from a skit on Robot Chicken. They had M. Night Shamallama (obviously I'm spelling his name wrong because I can't spell it. XD) talking about movies, and he kept saying "What a Twist!"

It was hilarious. :LOL:

I'm working on my characters. >_< I almost had it finished with this pixel art editing, but I got mad and closed the paint because it was making me angry. Stupid thing doesn't work right.

So, yeah, I'm signing up, I just need time.
