Storyline


A countless number of people have entered a competition to be able to test run a game, a new kind of MMORPG, kind of like The World, from .hack, so to speak. A selection of people have won the prize, and thus are on their way to the game's main HQ to get their prize. Once there the people are offered a test run on the game, but are first given a title by the game's staff, from one of these:

Mind
Soul
Body
Blade
Key (otherwise known as Chosen.)
Guide

Once given this, the staff began chanting in an unknown language, perhaps for effect, as the floor opened beneath them. A blinding light surged forth, enveloping all of the winners, their surroundings warping and changing in front of their eyes, leaving them in very different scenery, a cathedral or rundown Abbey, so it seemed.

The Guide seemed to be in a trance, and started reciting a message.

'Thank you for helping us, winners. Before you ask, this is not the game, despite what you might think, from perhaps your clothing, and weapons. This is the parallel realm known as Myndinak, and the world may soon collapse if something cannot be done. Thus, we call on you, young ones, to help us restore peace an equilibrium to Myndinak. If you succeed, you shall be sent back home, and if not, then you have probably met your demise here.

Please help us.'

The Titles


The Mind - They have the appearances and weapons of perhaps a mage, or projectile weapon user. The Mind is given the ability to alter reality with their mind to a small degree, for example, envisioning a chocolate bar, or something, which then becomes reality. To compensate, they lose physical strength momentarily.

The Soul - The Soul is even more like mages and magic users than their counterpart. Able to use high level magic, but at a price. On their first casting, A Soul must give up something of meaning to them, in exchange for their power, and will in turn, gain a guardian of a chosen element, to do with the colour of their soul. This guardian can be of beast and humanoid form, and can be an immeasurable companion.

The Body - Immeasurable strength is granted to this person, and they specialise in hand to hand combat. When strength is used however, The Body can be weakened in their mental state for a short amount of time, the opposite to The Mind.

The Blade - One skilled in weaponry. For their fighting ability, The Blade must lose a rudimentary sense, such as hearing, or feeling.

The Key - Information is unknown, although for one thing, the Key may not be allowed to die. At all costs.

The Guide - The Guide have a knowledge of the area they are in, or the people, even though they have not stepped into Myndinak before. Despite this, they will lose all knowledge they had of the real world, and of earth.

Evil- If you wish to be the main evil of the plot, please PM me first, so that we can discuss more about the character you wish to play, and how this might fit in with the storyline.

Characters


The Mind:

The Soul:

The Body:Gaia Name: Dragonprincess4eva
Name: Alanna Roberts
Age: 13
Race: Human
Personality: She is a shy girl. Once she gets to know people, she outgrows her shyness. Alanna is very smart and mature for her age. Once someone bothers her she will either act shy or loose her temper and the person will walk home with a bruise or two. She often zones out into her own little world.
Title: Body
Skill given up: Alanna's mental state of memory gets weak. She begins to remember less and less moves while she uses her strength.
Weapon: Hands and Katana
Real Life Appearance: Alanna
Myndinak Appearance: Myndinak Alanna
History: Alanna is not a popular girl. When she won the competition some of her best friends ignored her and miss treated her. She is struggling to find who are her true friends. Alanna played video games to relieve her stress when not practicing Karate. When she is not playing video games or practicing karate Alanna is reading, drawing, or playing piano.

The Blade:Gaia Name: ageless sin of dragon
Name: Kiri Oricha
Age: 15
Race: Human
Personality: She is rather quiet, and mostly keeps to herself, but she has a short temper and if someone ticks her off, they'll know about it. She's also quite affectionate, and gets attached to people, and animals, very quickly.
Title: Blade
Skill given up: Speech
Weapon: Twin Swords
Real Life Appearance: Piccy
Myndinak Appearance:Myndinak Piccy
History: She was never particularly well known, or popular, around school, untill word had gotten out that she had won the contest, then all of a sudden everyone wanted to know her. She haden't realised this game was such a big deal, it was just a game. She'd played millions, ever since she was small, and had almost expected to win this competition.

The Key:

The Guide: Gaia Name: beckithewatermage
Name: Carmel Mildmay
Age: 17
Race: Human
Personality: Rather absentminded, even despite her memory loss, Carmel often forgets to do things. Kind and understanding in nature, she often takes the backseat in conversations, to allow others to have a say.
Title: The Guide
Skill given up: Her knowledge about planet Earth. She can't remember a thing. She's even unsure on her name.
Weapon: A bow and arrow
Real Life Appearance: Carmel
Myndinak Appearance: Myndinak Carmel
History: Carmel had been playing video games for as long as she could remember. She can vividly remember always spending and saving her pocket money, till she had enough for the latest games and consoles, and usually spending her part time wages from the small cafe she worked in on them. Pity she can't remember that now.

She can't even remember winning the contest. Nor anyone. Probably why she think she's one of the locals.

The Evil One:

Evil Minions:

Civilians of Good Morality:

Civilians of Bad Morality:

Civilians of Neutral Morality:

Other:
