Saigence: A Roleplaying Game (CLOSED)

[TheFacelessOne]

Sagicene is an rp that is...well...

Premise: In 1982, scientists invent an armored gauntlet that combines the uses of a Computer and a GPS. Technogoly reigns high on the world, and nearly everyone who can afford it has it. Then, in 1989, Cultists video tape a religious ceremony and claim that they, "performed magic", which was taped. The video is said to be a hoax, but the cultists begin doing live demostrations where the elements are controlled by a cultist. Scientists, baffled that logic is being broken, start a heated debate againist the cultists. Two years later, underground wars begin to start between the two factions. The wars later become public and hurt much of the world. One place, Einthill City, once a beautiful metropolis, has become a city of pity crimes and a battleground.

"Races":
Upon the beginning of the war, the two factions began to claim they were different races instead of humans.

Magites: The race is defined as anybody in the war who relies only on magic and hates technogoly to it's core. Most Magites are savage people, scavenging dead bodies for vials and "chems" to power their need for magic.

Techers: This race is defined as anybody in the war who relies only on technology and hates magic to it's cure. Techers are usually the opposite of Magites, and are well kept individuals who believe their only job is to hunt down and kill all Magites.

Tegites: This race, the rarest of all, are estenially "super humans" who use both technology and magic. All tegites have at one point or another implaced implants all over their bodies to control it better. They are revered by all men, Magites or Techers. Tegites consider themselves the only "pure" people and believe their job is to end the war.

By race i don't mean human race. Check the first post under "Races"

Now, in humanity, human races don't matter. You're either a Techer, Magitite, or Tegite.

Just fix that and your good to go!

Sorry, fixed that quick. Ok your good to go.
3 more characters and i think we can start.

 

[Ajna]

Name: Ajna Anahata Sahasarara III

Age: 26

Race: Techer

Appearance: Male. Pale skin (but not albino). About 5'6", and roughly 110 pounds. Scar across right eye (though VRD [http://www.cc.gatech.edu/classes/cs6751b_99_winter/projects/gromit/tdh/hw3/virtual_retinal_display.html] improvements make this less of a disability and more of an advantage. Note that this is a more advanced version of the VRD than any that could exist in this world, and thus can show thermal imaging and "night vision" (which, as a machine, it can compensate for overly bright lights, so a flashlight to the face while it's in NV mode can't "blind" it.)) A biologically implanted third eye, that is entirely red with a black hourglass in place of a pupil (it doesn't serve much of a purpose, but can scare Magites, giving them pause before attacking). Black hair, naturally green eyes (though permanently implanted contacts cause them to appear bright red. Long hair for a male (roughly shoulder length).

Biography: Tries to keep most of his past life (and his present life... And his plans for the future...) hidden. Occasionally allows a few facts to slip out, such as that he was born in an area that is extremely cold in the winter. He is smart, even by Techer standards, but his knowledge is broad, rather than focused, meaning that though he can offer ideas on most, if not every, subject, he likely should be ignored in favor of someone with a much more focused knowledge if there is some such person available. Extremely fond of odd facts, he enjoys explaining to Magites before their death that a duck-billed platypus is indeed quite dangerous, due to it's sixth sense that allows it to pinpoint someone based on the electromagnetic signals sent out by muscle contractions, and the poison they produce can cause sever pain in humans, usually incapacitating them, and always rendering the limb that was stung effectively useless (assuming it was biotic, which a magite limb certainly will be).

Weapons: Heightened senses (such as from the VRD, which can let him see almost anyone, anywhere), a blade in a sheath designed to keep it coated in a potent neurotoxin (not enough to kill, but enough to paralyze and occasionally knock out a target) at all times, a small handgun (which he rarely uses, due to the lack of skill required to kill someone with it (at the range he'd need to be to kill someone with it, he'd already be able to use a blade)), a second (non-poisoned) blade (for using when he plans to kill, not incapacitate), a sniper rifle (an implanted (but removable) IV has a relatively small container the liquid form of the market drug "Valium", which can be released in a calculated dose based on conditions set by a pacemaker, a sensor in the rifle and one in his hand, and the VRD, all in unison), he also has a small computer implant in his brain, which has (among much other information) several fighting styles downloaded onto itself, giving him access to several different melee styles of fighting (some while armed with various weapons, but most not). He also has an expandable staff, which may be used as a weapon, but is normally used as a tool. Has a pet male duck-billed platypus, named "Ptre" (prounounced "Pet-tra"), which (in addition to being trained to follow its master and not attack unless commanded to) has a cybernetic uplink to its master's brain, effectively giving him the sixth sense platypii/platypuses (both are grammatically correct) have innately. Ajna also carries several vials of some drugs, ranging from street drugs such as heroin to very lethal toxins and chemicals (such as Thiopentone, which, upon injection into a human, can kill in roughly one second, or in small doses induce a coma). Technically, these drugs aren't all weapons, but several are.

Speciality: As a jack of all trades, he has some ability in just about every discipline a Techer can be expected to have, though in none (save perhaps implants, of which he has several, such as those mentioned above) is he proficient enough to be used in place of someone with more skill. He is, by all means, a cyborg, as, in addition to the several implants above, he has replaced his legs with a much more energy efficient model (he has been known to say that the minute wheels can be trusted outside of a city, he plans to use those instead), which allows him to run at roughly 40 mph (just over 60 km/h) with the ease most humans jog (he can, of course, walk at the pace of a normal human, or run faster than 40 mph. However, he will expend less energy than most, while walking). His arms are still "normal". His entire body has small implants in the muscle tissue that stimulate it as he sleeps, promoting growth. As such, he is in what would be peak physical condition for most humans. The "Third Eye" (while writing of it, he refers to it in capital letters. No one who has asked him why has gotten an answer out of him) remains open while he sleeps (save for normal blinking for moisture), and the cybernetic portion of his brain relays this as a "dream". If a fear or anger response is triggered as a result of this dream, it sends a signal to the all of the muscle stimulation implants to shock him at once (waking him).

Extra: It is to be noted that most of the above implants have weaknesses: The cybernetic brain is relatively limited in storage ability, so if Ajna wishes to have a more specific knowledge of something, he must have less/no knowledge of something else (which he cannot accept, and as such, he tends to not know the specifics of everything). Though the "Third Eye" can help prevent him from being snuck up on while asleep, he still can only see infront of him, and has to blink, so it is possible to strike from behind, should he roll over in his sleep, or have a back to a wall. In theory, someone hiding nearby could get to him before he rises into a defensive position. Most of the implants use wireless signals to communicate (save for the VRD, which is near enough the brain to use a cord similar to the normal optic nerve that most humans have), and as such can be jammed, just like any device.

(OOC: Quick question: Is "Techer/Magite/Tegite" a proper noun? Should it be capitalized all the time, or only at the beginning of a sentence?)

 

[Ajna]

*snip* (character sheet: Specifically relating to the "Biography" section.

Sabotager isn't a word (try master of sabotage), and the word is spelled "prestigious" (not trying to correct you, just noticed the question marks).

I can see Ajna and Eryn as getting along quite well. After all, he speaks quite oddly too, what with being roughly "26 full revolutions about the sun" old.

 

[MercenaryCanary]

Character Creation Sheet
Name: Abeo Kontakt

Age: 14

Race: Tegites

Appearance: 5 feet, 9 inches. His hair is brown, and curly, with his eyes constantly changing color due to a kaleidoscope genetic. The implants in him are placed under the skin, thus when you cut him, you get sparks and blood. The scar (in the shape of a rainbow. I will call it rainbow scar.) on his left cheek is a shiny metallic faint line. His legs are skinny with natural human muscle, while his arms have been given a boost with synthetic muscle.

Biography: Having been thrown out on the streets when he was found harboring a weapon(Zeffy), Abeo has had to use his education, wit, and political views, he has become technologically and mystically potent in a mere two years. He chose to undergo the painful decision of becoming a Tegites when his split-personality started conflicting with the choice he made earlier on. He wants to bring a peaceful end to this war, but his morals are sketchy and can switch at any moment.

Weapons: A bolt-action laser rifle nicknamed "Zeffy" that fires 5 shots before having to have the bolt pulled. It is silent on the first 4 shots, but the fifth one is as loud as any other firearm. The laser cleans the gears, thus preventing it from jamming from rust, or dirt. He has also learned to harness the abilities of fire and defense allowing him to either burn his enemies to death, or if he feels sympathetic, to simply create a wall of fire that burns everything that comes into contact with it, so as to keep people at bay.

Specialty: Sabotaging, Repair, Defense, Fire.

Extra: Look at the age. Then remember he has a split-personality. Also, I'm keeping his morals a secret so as to emphasize the danger of sticking with him.

 

[Ajna]

A second, quick, OOC question: Can we RP more than one character? I've noticed that almost all the ones made so far are "Techer"s, and would like to make a Magite to even things out...

 

[ae86gamer]

How many more people are needed to start?

Also I forgot to put in a Extra for my character.

Here it is.

Extra: Carries a small disk around containing a computer virus that can destroy anything. She conveniently named the virus "D.E.I.S" which is short for "Destroying Everything In Sight".

 

[Dragonrabbit]

Name: Costas Kiter
Age: 22
Race: Magite
Appearance: Costas wears black robes that cover most of his body, the ends of his sleeves are singed from his fire magic. He has medium length brown hair with black spots in it from ashes. His eyes are entirely red in every part, pupil, iris, cornea, every part of his eyes are red. His skin is pale with the exception of the odd burn mark. He is fairly short standing at only 5'8. No discernible body type can be seen through his robes, but he has a thin face.

Bio: Costas's parents were both original cultists members, and raised Costas as such from the day he was born. When asked what area of magic he wanted to specialize in Costas chose fire against the advice of his father, who knowing how clumsy his son was thought he should chose earth. In his studies Costas quickly gained the attention of Magite elders, and Father Igneious, the chief fire user of the cultist, made it a point to specially train Costas himself. After 8 years of intense training it became time for Costas to prove himself to the cultists leaders. They chose to send him into the heart Einthill City to eliminate the Teachers and help when the war for the Magites.

Weapons: A longsword with runes etched alongside the entirety of the blade, when activated it has several fire based magic powers.

Speciality: Fire, offensive.

Extra:Costas is very clumsy and even though his magic is quite powerful his clumsiness has been known to get the best of him. He also has a nervous personality and twitches a fair bit.

Spoiler: OoC

I took some liberties with the Magite mythos, I hope you don't mind.
