The problem with the world today ...... .....Cannot be pinned on one thing, From corruption to kids slaying other kids. People ask "Where is the sense in it all?" Well there is no sense in the senseless and there is no method to this madness because we have blindly allowed this to happen. I have been around for a long time and I have watched this world slowly start to fall to ruin. From people blaming the politicians they put in office to humans hating their own kind for being different. I've tried to make sense of all this and the only answer I have found lies in the lost arts of old; The Stories, Traditions, Tombs, and Legends of our ancestors. While they may be dated they have become embedded in our society with out us knowing it and then there are the ones who know 'It' is still very much alive. 'It's essence' exists in all life and can be wasted. So I've taken up the task of enlisting help in finding a way to restore 'It' before 'It' itself fades forever. So when asked about the problems of the world. I respond...... .....We lack faith in our future

The Legend
Stories tell of an ancient kingdom that stood in the middle of the land as the capital of the world. There 'It' shone in a spectrum of beautiful and majestic colors. Anyone living under the light of 'It' was blessed with happiness and a unlimited supply of 'It'. The Capital shared the power of 'It' with neighboring kingdoms in order to keep peace and order in the world. The Green essence brought forth life and powered nature to spread over the world in order to make sure life kept thriving The Blue essence allowed the water to flow through the cracks and rivers of the earth bringing forward Faith and the and constant source of hope for the world. The Yellow essence made sure the earth that lay underneath us stayed strong and firm and brought strength with it. The Red essence gave us the erupting flames from within the earth that allowed for the creation of machines and gave us Power. The Purple essence scattered over the world like a fine snow and gave us the Wisdom to create and to open doorways we never though possible. and finally, the White essence brought forth light and maintained Order in our world.
One day, however, our world changed forever. The King had become old and greedy. He sought to take over the neighboring lands. This was the first instance of Corruption in history. When his daughter received word of this impending invasion, she prayed to 'It' to stop her father from doing this. 'It' answered her prays and sent warnings to the aged King trying to warn him of his choices; "If you follow this path, you will cause this world to lose everything you have." A voice rang out in his dreams. The King dismissed this and rallied his forces to challenge the world. His daughter pleaded with her father to change his mind. He locked her in her room and went to capture the rest of the world. The daughter wept in her room when suddenly five knights from the King's court broke in and freed her. They hurried to 'It' where the daughter pleaded with 'It' again and this time 'It' spoke out; "He did not heed my warning....and so he will lose everything. One day, the future will restore and repair the damage done here today..." And with that....the essence shared in the world was suddenly pulled back and a explosion engulfed the capital and 'It' was lost forever.....
The Modern Day
Today, Man has evolved to the state it is in and the city of New Constapolis was built on top of the ruins, and bustling city where this story has not been repeated in sometime. But there is hope....'It' has shown signs of surviving. Small signs, but signs none of the less in the youth and future generations of the world. Now I search out those who are strongly in tuned with 'It' with the hope of bringing it back to us....before this dark 'Corruption' completely engulfs the world and wipes out any remaining traces of 'It' for all eternity

RULES
1. No god modding, This is common sense. Everyone will have a weakness. 2. Post often! I want to try and keep this rp alive for awhile! 3. No super ultra powerful characters, The setting is in modern times. while yes other races will be allowed I don't want generic demons. they must have an element, (ex. Fire demon) 4. you can combine elements, only two, a main and secondary. kinda like pokemon. 5. pm me your profiles, title them your characters main element and your favorite card suite. not mrgreen 6.Be some what literate, don't mispell often and make sure you read through your posts. Essence (Elements) Green: This is the Essence of Life, Nature and Wind, those of this essence are connected with plants and the winds that spread life over the world.
Blue: This is the Essence of Hope, Water and Ice. those who are called to by the seas and use it's might to drown or freeze their enemies.
Yellow: The Essence of Strength, Earth and Electricity. Those associated with this essence are strong powerful beings. able to use the earth as a powerful weapons or harness the stunning power of electricity
Red: The Essence of Power, Fire and Metal, The hotheads who are listed in this list are in touch with the burning power of fire or the cold power that is associated with metal
Purple: The Essence of Wisdom, Magic and creation,while one of the weaker elements in the spectrum, it is the most flexible among them. magic itself can take many form and used to make objects or open doorways to other worlds
White: The Essence or Order, Light and Holy, those in touch with this essence are those who have a divine touch. They can provide light in the darkest times and live to maintain order. Essence balances (ex. ever played chrono cross? yeah like that)
Green and Yellow are weak to each other
Red and Blue are weak to each other
Purple and White are weak to each other
Also, weakness will go off of your main element. as to avoid characters with no weaknesses

The ones who will change the future...... This is the face that will change the world: Kota D. Ovan I have survived this many years: 19 The doctors said I was: Male I'm me I wouldn't change that I'm: Bi I like the following: Computers, friends, history, fruit, family, Tattoos I hate the following: bugs, annoying people, corrupt people I am of the following breed: Human This Essence speaks to me: Purple I'm also skilled in this element: none, for now My choice of weapon: none for now I've been through a lot in my time: A boy with a lot of wisdom, Kota comes from a small town where computers and machines were not popular. Everyone walked everywhere or biked. He loved machines which grew into a love for computers, the internet and data. He dreamed of moving out and working on computers for a large corporation. So he packed up his things and moved to the city. with the hopes of following his dreams.A move which may turn out to be the best move of his life. Here is my latest pic: This is the face that will change the world: Nick Zennerman I have survived this many years: 26 The doctors said I was: Male I'm me, I wouldn't change that I'm: Hetero I like the following: Whiskey, Jerky and People leaving me the Hell Alone I hate the following: Most people, Green Beans and Inflation I am of the following breed: Human My weapon of choice: Anti-Materiel Rifle This Essence speaks to me: White I'm also skilled in this essence: Red I've been through a lot in my time: Nick became an orphan at a young age. Once he began living on the streets, he realized how important survival was. This train of thought would eventually lead to him becoming an assassin. He would take lives for profit, ensuring his own survival. He found the profession suited him, he took lives in a precise manner, and was paid in kind, a sort of demented order that had taken over his life. Over the years, he learned that some times, lives are taken to ensure the existence of others, as the man who pulls the trigger, Nick is the enacting force of one of those decisions. Here is my latest pic: This is the face that will change the world: Aster Lister I have survived this many years: TBA The doctors said I was: Female I'm me, I wouldn't change that I'm: Bi I like the following: Alcohol, Beautiful Things (People, Art, Jewels, ect.), Magic, being challenged, and Well made food. I hate the following: Those that taunt her pride, losing, I am of the following breed: Magical Weapon My weapon of choice: Chains This Essence speaks to me: Yellow (Earth) I'm also skilled in this essence: Red (Metal) I've been through a lot in my time: Aster was born long ago just as the world was sort of taking it's start into hell. There was still much magic in the world in that primitive time. She grew with a desire to master at least one of them, but struggled pretty greatly with any sort of essence. She ended up managing a position under a mystical sort of Wizard, dong various field work for him whilst trying to train under him though he was mostly just using her for basic to deadly tasks. She ended up falling in love with him a long the way and ironically became the finalization of his project. A weapon of essence, though just one. They ended up traveling together, since she was now his weapon, just before he'd start on making some other weapons like her. Illness eventually got to him, so she ended up guarding and sealing up his home/work from the world. She ended up being buried into the ruins now today, falling into a long slumber as her true form. A recent earthquake has woken her up and she's now taking on this new world. Here is my latest pic:
Sword Form This is the face that will change the world: Jace Brunelli I have survived this many years: 21 The doctors said I was: Female I'm me, I wouldn't change that I'm: Heterosexual/straight I like the following: Teasing others, loud noise, Marmite. I hate the following: Stern people, shy people, books, university, talking about my history. I am of the following breed: Human. My weapon of choice: None yet – though I’d go for something light and agile. This Essence speaks to me: Blue I'm also skilled in this essence: Yellow I've been through a lot in my time: Jace lived a normal city background for 20 years. She’d had her fair share of drama and trouble – fist fights in 9th and 10th grade, failing her yearly exams, but that was the extent of an average city girl. All her parents wanted was for her to finish university and establish a good career; since young, they were determined in raising her as a future scholar. The relentless pressure had a negative effect on her personality instead. Few years down the track, Jace’s second year in uni. She detests it. Spending most of her nights drinking and clubbing, anything but studying. She still hopes for the freedom of a different lifestyle, but while accustomed to the convenience of a safe, assured young adulthood, she is reluctant to take risks and does not dare wander outside of her comfort zone. Witty, charming girl. Jace is quick to judge others on their appearances and decisions. Here is my latest pic:

((WE ARE OPEN!!!!!! =D oh and use which every color you want, i just did that so people didnt have to like scour profiles looking for main elements) "s**t! I"m going to be late!!" A young man yelled as he dashed along the streets of the city with his computer bag swinging by his side. He panted as he ran towards a large corporate building. For the first time since he came to this city he had an opportunity to maybe get a new job in his dream field. He smiled as he kept running. He ran past a small festival where a man in a cloak stopped him. "Excuse me sir, do you have a moment?" "Ummm...Not really. I must be going. I have an interview to get to." Kota replied in a hurry "Listen for just a second....did you know? It is the anniversary of a great kingdom's fall to ruin? On this day every year...a beautiful meteor shower rains down...you should watch" The man said handing Kota a flyer and smiled. "Ummm....ok thanks!" Kota said as he turned and ran off towards the building again. The man in the cloak smirked as he watched the young man run off before walking down an alley and vanishing.

Aster Just near a more desolate street of the city a sewer grate was being pushed aside by a frail hand. She pushed herself up and out, onto her feet to stand about 5'10" in very plain, unusual, and some what dirty clothing. It was a white cloth shirt that had been recently dusted and kind of clean, long sleeve with some leather string at the front for adjustments; beneath were some dark cloth shorts and some leather boots that had a few holes in them. She squinted her eyes while running her hand through her hair, getting a look around the street to not see much going on "How long...hmm" thinking a bit to herself, looking at the tall scale buildings and letting the louder sounds of the city sink in "Must of been awhile...maybe the essence advanced further after all." . The sound of a horn caught her by surprise as a speeding car swerved around her, the wind pressure causing her to spin almost off balance.
She shook her head and looked in the direction of what just flew past her "The hell is that thing?" she shook her fist angrily and began to run after it yelling "Do na karatin, trya!" irked as she chased down the car in the midst of the street, though as it was making a right turn another car came past. She was just out of the way as it drove by quickly, around the corner traffic was picking up "Is this a new race?!" looking amongst the crowd of cars that were stuck in traffic, but she'd eventually catch the various people walking along the side walk "Oh..nope, there's still humans." she'd leisurely walk quickly onto the sidewalk where everyone else was. She was merely observing at this moment, for everything was pretty new though she could make comparisons from her older life, she'd continue to walk along with her hands in her pockets and a more stubborn expression on her face at this unpleasant situation. A lot of people were talking, she could hear, but the language had drifted since her time so for now it was a good bit of gibberish to her ears. Some people gave her looks, she'd give them right back, but it seemed nobody was too put off by her.

Nick sat in the mostly empty room and yawned. Already he had burned through two packs of cigarettes just waiting for his target to show up, the butts in a plastic bag in his pocket, didn't want the supposed "authorities" tracking him down, not like he was easy to track down to begin with. Finally Nick saw movement flash across a window in the building across the street. Just like he had read in the file. His client this time was a rather wealthy and vengeful woman whose husband, a rather prominent political figure, had been cheating on her. Rather than get mad, she chose to get even, and she hired Nick to do it for her. Being a man of professional standards, Nick told the woman he would nail both the cheating man and his mistress in one shot. Now here he was, watching through the scope of his rifle as the two continued doing their dirty deeds. Nick waited patiently for the right shot, it finally came when the woman took her shirt off and the man's head came up. A split-second later Nick's bullet ripped out of the muzzle at high-velocity, going through the man's head and the woman's chest, the high caliber round creating a large hole in the woman's body and completely destroying the man's head. "Another satisfied customer." Nick said and sighed, extinguishing his last cigarette and flicking the butt out of the window and began stowing his gun, disassembling it and packing it away in a guitar case and quietly and calmly, exiting the building and disappearing into the crowd.

Kota ran into the building "I"m here for the interview!" He panted at the secretary. The lady looked at him with a raised eyebrow and picked up her telephone never breaking her stare with him."Mr.Kraus....yes the boy for the interview is here....ok, I"ll send him up" The lady hung up and sighed. "Straight down the hall,take the elevator, third right, large gold doors..." she instructed before going back to her work. Kota smiled and adjusted his bag. "Thank you very much ma'am..." He said as he turned and power walked to the elevator. After following the directions he came to two large gold doors. "Woah..." He said as he ran his fingers along the detailing on the door which seemed to resemble a large cluster of crystals. "Enter!" Kota jumped and slowly opened the doors to the office. It was a massive office with a large conference table in the middle and what seems to be a gem in a stand placed precisely in the middle. "Umm...hello, "I'm Kota Ovan!" Kota said chipperly as he entered the room and closed the doors behind him"Yes boy I know who you are." A gruff voice said from a chair with it's back towards Kota at the end of the table as a smoke cloud slowly rose from his chair "But the question is...Do you know who I am?""You are Mr.Kraus...your family founded this city I believe?" Kota said nervously as he gulped." A loud laugh came from the chair. "You are right my boy..." A large man stood up. He was dressed in a nice suit and had a cigar in his mouth. "We have been here for generations....Do you know what our product is?" He asked as he walked towards Kota who had a clueless look. "We have mined crystals and gems for decades. That is what built this city...." He grabbed the large gem in the center and held it in Kota's face. "What do you see?" He asked glaring at the boy. Kota gulped and toke the gem and looked into it. "Umm....I see...." He said as he squinted. suddenly inside the gem seemed to fill with a purple haze and he said lights and wisps swilring and moving inside." Kota blinked a few times" I see....money?" He asked clearly lying. The large man laughed. "Money? a Good answer...I like you. What do you got to sell me?" He said as he sat back in his large chair Kota smiled as he set his bag on the table"Well sir! I developed a program where the user them self acts like a computer. they are able to copy things they see and save them to a drive among many other things. I call it D.I.U.S. the Digital Integrated User System." Kota said smiling as he toke out some paperwork depicting the idea. The man listened to Kota's speech and once he had finished he stood. "Son...such a thing cannot be achieved....yet...I'm sorry but we cannot take your idea. Unless you find some way to make it real of course..." The man said simply and shooed Kota outKota sighed as he turned and left the building. "Again...another failure...."He said as he began his walk home distraught and head hung low.The man watched Kota leave form his office and released a puff of smoke as he paged his secretary. "Ms.Norris....keep an eye on that child for me please?" He said deep in thought as he sat in his chair and smirked

Nick sat in a diner across from a rather unique looking office building, he never bothered to remember the name of the building, just the name of its chief occupant, Mr. Kraus. A man who had, on more than one occasion, contracted Nick's services, both knowingly and unknowingly. Nick continued to drink his coffee in passive silence, he knew it would only be a matter of time before he received another contract, another person seeking to have another person killed, either for profit or for self-satisfaction. In his eyes, it was always them who pulled the trigger, just like his gun, Nick was the weapon that had ended countless lives. I wonder who is going to call on me today. Nick thought as he finished another cup and ordered another.

Aster Just before her, past a few people, laid two friendly dead bodies that slowly became drenched in blood. She saw them knocked down and she didn't see any sign of what could of caused it. Whoever did it was fast, and from a distance most likely, but no signs of magic were near that she could sense out really. She was mostly just stumbled in shock whilst the crowd made an uproar over the death scene. Sirens ran loudly, and Aster felt just a bit overwhelmed. It was maybe ten or twenty minutes the scene would be placed out , sketched ect. Men dressed in darker blue, a lot of them dressed in the same, came closer to her with their arms out telling her to back up and away and filled with questions she couldn't understand. She couldn't understand them period at this point, but there were small bits and pieces that were slowly starting to come through. She took the moment to simply allow their words to transverse though she was holding her breath with much caution. She could sense their frustration and figured they were attempting to get her to talk , pointing to the scene behind yellow lines. The first punch from her was thrown, which aligned a new wave of chaos in the area.
Aster wasn't human, and it was fairly clear, many wouldn't believe it. She felt a the bullets sting across her flesh painfully and was quick to take cover behind vehicles for a moment. She stared at the bullets still lodged into her skin, or made a clear hole through her, though there was no blood drenching from her. It still hurt regardless and there was no hesitation to pursue her, thus she grabbed the large hunk of metal and launched it straight into the police force before leaping on top of the buildings to escape. She wasn't sure how far they'd go to chase her, and all the wrong she's exactly done, but she'd go far and find a place to lay low "I could really use a black smith though.." thinking to herself. She was moving across many roofs at this point, avoiding any confrontation and fights for now. There was still a large crowd and she got a better notice of the world before her, the presence of what she was familiar with was very thin compared to the world below she came from. There was one individual she could spot though, one that stood out to her. That aura he held, purple hue, it was a dim cluster about his finger, but it lingered.
She'd follow him until she could approach him more privately, most for the fact people were possibly looking for her and she needed to keep her head low for now less she wanted anymore trouble.[[Caused a scene, let me know if I went too far.]]
