Hello, Escapist's. I've decided to create an RP about a story I'm working on: Artmaster's Academy! I'll accept up to 10 players, but less early on, and probably more to support some other character's. Until then, I'll be all the NPC character's who matter.
All character sheets should be laid out like so

Name: Zeya (Demon_Zeya)
Art: Gravikinesis, Mutationist(Fiend)---- Note: Put primary Art first
Age: ???-unknown for sure, oldest in Academy
Appearance: Mostly unknown. Height is 5' 8", weight is between 110-130 pounds. Hidden under his black cloak, some people say they've seen deep purple eyes when Zeya was in human form
Personality: Ignores most people under the age of 100- quiet, wise, and powerful. Prefer's to be in his Shadow Creeper form. doesn't fight unless he is bored, or if is challenged
Bio: ???-Nobody has found out enough about him to build his life story
Extra: Shadow Creeper form- Has same cloak Zeya normally wears, and is identical as far as most Artmaster's know, asides from the four appendages that grow from his back. At the end of these appendages are large blades that Zeya uses to maneuver and fight
Weapon of Choice: Weapon is unknown, but he fights with the Shadow Creeper's claws whenever it is needed.

Now, all character's have to select one of the following Art's. I'll add simple descriptions, because all Artmaste's can use their Arts to varying degree's. Some Artmaster's will have two Arts, so post the one you'd prefer them to have if only one first.

(So far, there are 20 Arts, PM for suggestions, so as not to clog up the thread.)

Kinsesis Arts:
Pyrokinesis: Controlling fire
Hydrokinesis: Controlling water
Protokinesis: Controlling electricity/electric powered substances
Cryokinesis: controlling ice- most cryokinetics are partially hydrokinetic/vice versa
Terrakinesis: Controlling stone, earth
Aerokinesis: Controlling air, wind
Gravikinesis: Rare kinesis Art, controlling gravity
Telekinesis: controlling things with mind, one of the most common Arts

Mutation Arts:
Beast Class: turn into evolved land animals (wolves, bears, chickens?, bulls, etc), mammals usually
Aever Class: turn into extensively evolved air animals (you can use your imagination here. Must have a form of flight, preferably WINGS)
Serpent Class: turn into evolved reptiles/fish (lizards, sharks, snakes, etc.)
Fiend Class: turn into dark fiends from the depth's of Daemonia (free to choose, must have little to no Earth-based-animal relations.)
Spirit Class: turn into spectral beings, mythical organisms (dragons, hydra's [that fits in as a serpent...], etc)

Other Arts:
Telepathy: Able to hear the thoughts of others at will, not at will if untrained.
Shadow Melding: Becoming one with darkness, another name is Shadowkinesis
Spirit Mastery: Ability to summon spirits from the Beyond
Psychokinesis: Control the physical actions of others. Too far from the regular kinesis branches to be counted as one
Insubstantiality: Ability to dissipate one's physical self (material body), or ethereal form (the parts that you can see)
Teleportationalist: It speaks for itself. I'd like to have one in the story for the sake of shortness...
Terraformer: Ability to change the terrain at will, by pulling masses from below. Requires the most energy of all Arts, but isn't very effective in combat.

All MUTATION classes have a limit of transformations- human form, and 3 mutated forms. The specifics of these mutations do not need to be shown, but I must know- PM me. I will be on daily, but probably will edit it at the same general time, unless it's a weekend.
Spirit Master's are limited like mutationists- three summons.

Also, I'm cutting out the parts of your character's that say that they learned that they have Arts. The Arts develop significantly later than when they're awakened, but stress or other significant emotions can make them activate.

EDIT: more Arts (day of posting)
EDIT: Prologue (May 5)

Prologue

Zeya stood on top of the large tower, watching the city below. He was lucky for this mission, since there were six Artmasters, all living in the same city. The problem was that he'd be stuck baby-sitting them...

His cloak billowed in the wind as he dropped from the tower. As he fell, he began changing. His skin became scales, his cloak dissipated, and he grew a tail. The Silver Hunter, he called it. He opened the Hunter's wings and stayed in that spot for a moment. Then he turned southwards and went on his way to the first two. On the paper he had, it said that "Mia" and "Rachel" were neighbors, and they were friends.

They'll probably be together... Zeya thought. He flew off. The house where Rachel was supposed to live was empty. They're probably together, then...The next house had dim lights on. Zeya flew onto it and landed silently on the roof. He changed from the Hunter form, to human. Then he changed into the Night Crawler. Four appendages with claws on the ends sprouted from his back, and his limbs were significantly strengthened. He felt no need to care about the other parts that changed. Using his claws, Zeya climbed down to the second story of the house. There were five females in the room! Zeya racked his brains for the word he was looking for. "Oh yes, a sleep-over!" He quietly said.

Zeya had to choose between using the tranq gun he was given, or a massacre to silence the two Artmaster's friends. He decided to use the pacifist method. He crept to the basement from a first floor window and cut the power outlets. Using the evolved senses granted to him from the Night Crawler, Zeya worked his way out quickly. Looking into the girls's window, he saw them lighting candles. "It's like they're prepared for everything!!!" Zeya cursed. A shout distracted him.

"Oy! Who're you?!" Zeya turned around and saw a police officer aiming his gun at Zeya. "You don't look like a normal person, and I don't think them people you're eavsdropping on would like it either!." Zeya dropped to the floor and aimed the tranquilizer gun at the officer's neck. A perfect shot. Zeya rushed up to the window and forced it open.

There was a shriek as the four girls saw him sneak in. Zeya knocked out the three who didn't fit the description given to him by the Techies at the Academy. Zeya used a pair of claws to pin the two remaining ones down, then covered their mouths.

"I'm from a group of people with abilities like yours." He explained. They froze when he ended the sentence. "Thought you were the only ones? Looks like you also never knew about your own friends' abilities. Heh. Now, I'm going to tranquilize you two and take you to where A few of my friends will take you to the Academy. Don't move." Zeya aimed the gun.

Before he knew it, Rachel wasn't there. Zeya flinched. A teleportationist!! Zeya fired at Mia before she could try something funny, then turned around. Rachel was looking at her hands, surprised that she managed to warp away somehow.

"Nice Art, you can help the Academy much later..." Zeya said, before shooting her as well. He pulled their unconcious bodies out from the room, then flew off as his Silver Hunter form.

Next was Marek. He flew off, then landed on Marik's house. Zeya took no chances. He unlocked the window and knocked Marik out thoroughly, even though he was asleep. "I guess I'm a bit paranoid..." Zeya muttered. That's three.

The next person's name was Eryn. The first thing Zeya thought was, is this a guy or a girl?...

Upon examination, Zeya saw that Eryn was a girl. Zeya didn't notice that she was awake, he thought she was shuddering from the cold air. Females had a tendency to be sensitive to the elements. Suddenly, Zeya felt a heat behind him. FIRE! This girl was pyrokinetic! Zeya was about to destroy the flames, when a dousing of water destroyed the flames. Some a dual Artmaster with pyrokinesis AND hydrokinesis? Her Arts contradicted the other... Zeya tranqed her quickly.

Now three more. The nearest next person was a person name Arka. Zeya knew about this boy's Art. Shadowkinesis, Shadow Melding. Zeya had problems fighting them, but it would be quick. Zeya crept into the boy's house. There was nothing but a dark stain on the wall. This kid has no imagination... Zeya thought. He approached the black mark, and it moved to attempt to constrict his leg.

"Old trick..." Zeya muttered. He climbed onto the cieling, holding onto a flat wall that was just out of Arka's reach. After the child realized it, he pulled his body out of the shadow, revealing his true self.

"Who are you?" Arka asked hesitantly. Zeya cocked his head.

"You'll find out when you wake up." He said, then shot him with the tranquilizer. After quickly transporting Arka to the tower where the others were, Zeya moved onto the next person: Andy Clement.

The tranquilizer would be wearing off soon, Zeya thought. There was only a small dose in it, enough to keep them all under until Zeya had gathered all six of them together. He decided to not hesitate with the next Artmaster, or so he thought.

Inside of the house, Zeya quickly found Andy's room, and crept in. There was nobody there. "Did I manage to awaken you somehow?" Zeya muttered. "I'm not here to hurt you, despite my appearance." Some Artmasters that he spoke to would still be nervous if he was in his Shadow Crawler form. Zeya turned, examining the room. Nobody...

A bump made him flinch, resulting in a lamp shattering. The door creaked open. A teenage boy, about 18 years old, walked in. Zeya sighed. He stepped out of the shadows to where Andy would be able to see him. A minute passed as Andy walked to the shattered lamp.

"How did this happen?..."

"I did it..." Zeya admitted. Andy swiveled in a flash. Zeya noted his choice of clothes, then said: "Not a good choice of clothes for sleep-wear." The tranquilizer dart flew at him, knocking him out.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

The six young Artmasters were together, finally. Zeya pulled out another set of syringes. The substance in this would nullify the effects of the tranquilizer, waking them up quickly. Zeya injected it into them.

"Now for the magic..." Zeya said. He'd made sure the unconcious Artmaster's were nowhere near the sides of the tower, so they wouldn't accidentally fall off when they woke up. Zeya looked around, then realized some of them may be afraid of standing on a tower, 30 stories in the air. They slowly got up, the tranquilizer finally worn off. "Morning!" Zeya said. At 1 AM in the morning...

Now he'd have to deal with six angry teenagers... If only they knew what he had waiting for them... too bad that he'd have to go easy.

Mia woke up quickly and started to cough. She placed her cold hand on her soft lips to cover her cough. She had always been a polite girl, even in drastic situations. Mia rolled up onto her knees and looked around. Other teenagers were in the midst of waking up.

Mia stayed quiet. Her usual chatter would almost ruin the scary moment. Had she been kidnapped? She remembered something different about the man and something about Rachel. Mia turned her head and her hair whipped across her face.

She scanned the room in search of her friend. She then saw Rachel sitting on the other side of the room. Mia flinched before approaching Rachel.

"You... You disappeared and reappeared" Mia stammered.

"Um...about that. I dunno, it just came to me. I wanted to get away from that thing and....yeah, but more importantly, where are we?"

Andy moaned, he slowly sat up and looked at his surroundings."What the fu-?" he stopped himself seeing younger kids. Some of them were conscious, some were not, "Ok, does anyone know what the hell is going on here? Anyone else see an odd looking man?"

Marek woke up and sat up, acting like he just woke up in his bed as he looks around. Seeing the other people and didn't release it at first but then his eyes widen "What the hell!" He looked around more seeing where they were. He look back at the other kids not sure how to ask as he said "um....who are you guys?"

"Ehhhhhhhh..... My head?" Eryn grabbed her head to try and make it stop hurting. Eryn opened her eyes only to have the room spinning. Her vision slowly returned to normal and she saw that she was not the only one in the room.

"Who are all of you people?"

Mia looked at Rachel one last time and then turned around. She eyed most of the people whispering to themselves. She was scared. Mia had to keep calm. Last time she didn't things got out of hand. She walked over near another girl who was older & taller.

"Who are all you people?" the girl asked.

"I'm Mia and these are..." Mia stopped and turned around. "Strangers."

She looked down at the ground and headed for a corner. She slowly slid down the wall and boosted her knees up to her face. Mia ducked her head and cursed quietly.

"Oh, crap. Locked in a room with a load of strangers and Mia. This is not good."

Rachel started looking around the room to try and find a way out.

Arka quickly vanished into the shadows, but stuck his shadowed head out.

"Friends through circumstance? I'm Arka."

"The name is Andy, what exactly are we doing here?"

Andy stood up and walked to the window, "Damn! We are high! If anyone is afraid of heights, I would suggest not looking out this window!"

Eryn ignored what Andy said and quickly stuck her head out of the window. "Wow! We are high!"

She looked out until nearly her whole upper body was out of the window."By the way I'm Eryn! Nice to meet you....everybody!"

Arka looked at the window. "Heh, I could get out of here right now, be right back..."
He tried to lift off, but was too tired and sluggish from the tranq.

"Uhh, maybe later then..."

"I'm Marek" He said as the other gave their names. He saw some of them had powers like him, but different. He got up, still feeling a bit dizzy as he walk around and then sat back down.

"Does anyone remember what happen? What brought us here?"

"I don't know, some odd looking man was just in my room, then I was here!"

I might not have been clear enough about Artmaster's Academy. The Academy is NOT a school, it is more like a place for Artmaster's to live while being around people just like them. I'm sorry for any confusion it may have caused. To save me the trouble of personally messaging you all, I'd like to tell you to edit your Bio's so it doesn't mention their Art or the Academy.

Now it's your turn to start the role-playing. Just post up what you want to add, and if it's good and the others like it, I'll put it into the story! Also, all of the Artmaster's have small usage of their abilities now. Show off what they can do. If you want, I'll automate their failure, but where's the fun in that?

I also have an experience system built that you cannot see, but you guys will know this much- you get stronger by training your Arts gradually. Throughout the RP, the latest stats will be shown in terms of LV and ENERGY.

All Artmaster's have a limited use of their abilities at a time. I have a gauge showing how much power they have at a time. All of them start at 100. The stronger they get, the better abilities they can use, and the more energy they have. And yes, that is how powerful Zeya is...

Okay, the story of the Artmaster's Academy takes place in two worlds: Earth(yes, our Earth), and Daemonia, where the Artmaster's Academy is. All Artmasters are born with a gene that gives them their superhuman traits. There are two sides in the world of the Artmasters: the Academy and the Renegades. The Academy sits in Daemonia, all the Artmasters living their lives for all eternity, while the Renegades are trying to release this gene into the DNA of the rest of the human race.

All new characters will emerge as newcomers to the Academy, just learning that they aren't unique, just uncommon, at the Academy. A short story sequence will introduce all new characters and their Arts, with little background story because THEY'RE WITH A BUNCH OF OTHER SUPERHUMANS!!! This stuff is genius... (personal ranting)

Earth is how we know it, while Daemonia is a miniature Earth. It changes as our homeworld does, and it is home to the oldest Artmasters and various fiends that have found their way through the gate between the worlds.

All characters will decide on who their allegiances lie with, but after some time in the Academy. I'm not going to have too much combat based scenes, but I'll add some, just for the sake of being able to kill of people who are pissing me off, or if they're leaving. Note that once I introduce Spawrin, the most sadistic character ever, my enemies are going to suffer for challenging the DM's authority....

Agreed, more info.
For example - does a hydrokinetic get to assume 10,000,000% humidity or must there be enough of the force in question?
Stuff like that.

I'll describe some of the traits an Artmaster can use...

Pyrokinetic: More experienced ones can ignite wildfires with a snap of their fingers. Less experienced ones prefer to use pre-made fire's to augment their power's. Cannot be burned (Except through EXTREME heat)

Hydrokinetic: Pulls water from nearby sources (experienced Artmasters- Underground) and can make dense substances, enough to feel solid... >:D (evil laugh)

Pshychokinetic: "I can make you dance like a n00b! Haha!" The sound of a psychokinetic Artmaster before they make someone commit suicide. (Art can be overridden through force of will. Targets develop resistance when it is used extensively on them)

I'm not going to make many gravikinetics, since it's overpowered. I need to maintain fairness. Other parts can be filled through your imagination...

Im in to

Name: Marek

Art: Protokinesis, Mutation (Spirit)

Age: 17(I assume we should be young right?)

Appearance: He stands 5'7, 115 lbs(im really skinny in life) He has on a black t-shirt, jeans, and shoes. He has short black hair, blue eyes.

Personality: He likes to joke around at times with his friends and likes to help his friends. He smart and fast, though maybe not a lot of strength to bring down big opponents if it comes to fist to fist. He never did show his weapon of choice as he likes to keep it a surprise.

Bio: Marak first notice his powers when he was around five. He was outside during a lighting storm and was struck by lighting. Instead of dieing, he felt recharge and felt the power coursing though his vines. Later on he was able to control to a extend of this power. He kept this from his family and friends because he didn't know how they would react. He knew he had another power, but wasn't able to use it yet, due to fear of unlocking something that can't be control.

Weapon: Thunder Dragon Fangs(If you ever play Ninja Gaiden, look at teh falcon talons)

If needed change let me know.

Okay, here are the players:

ae86gamer said:
<spoiler=Character>Name: Eryn (Raven) Nevar

Art: Pyrokinesis, and Hydrokinesis

Age: 17

Appearance: She has shoulder length dark brown hair. She is most recognizable because of her two differently colored eyes. One is blue and the other is green. She wears black thick, rimmed glasses. Her standard attire is a backless white undershirt, a gray over shirt, white wrist-guards, black pants, and light shoes for easy movement. Eryn is 5'5 and 110 lbs. She is thin with almost no muscle mass.

Personality: Eryn is friendly, humorous in her own way, sensitive, and kind. Though she comes off as naive and rather clueless. Eryn has a tendency to rush into situations without thinking, sometimes leading to embarrassing consequences. When she wants to reach a certain goal she becomes hard headed and determined. Not willing to give up no matter what the situation. Eryn has a very loyal personality. She is also fearless and told so by numerous people.


Bio: Eryn and her younger siblings were raised by a drunk father and an unfaithful mother, who always argued and beat their children. When Eryn was fourteen she ran away and has been living by herself ever since. She is supported by relatives living elsewhere. Not much else is known about her life because she never speaks about it about anyone.

This ok?

Bio: Marek came to the school when he was old enough to join. His family sent him off to control his powers so he wouldn't kill them all by mistake. He knew he had two sorts of powers, one controling lighting, and the other having a Mutation.

If needed change let me know.
Need at least two or three more. All characters shouldn't be younger than 13 or higher than 24, due to the fact that they all are found eventuallt or are killed...

And weapons won't come in until a bit into chapter one. They're given after evaluating the Artmaster's skill with their Art.

He said he wanted two or three more. Two more have already joined so if I were you, Goat, I?d whip up a sheet soon enough. Also, on that note, it?s good to see some decent Rpers joining.

I'm happy to see you to eTuners :)

But getting back on topic.

Will the weapons we choose come at the beginning of the story or near the middle?
I only ask this because I already know what weapon I want.
