Joint Souls RP

 

Necessary information:

You can be either a bad guy or a good guy. Good guys are trying to take down an evil guy who summoned a number of "Striders", residents of the Other Realm, a magical world parellel to our own. Bad guys are looking to wreck havoc and defeat the good guys. The Striders he summoned were very beast like. His sister, the only other person able to connect to the Other Realm, used the last of her strength to connect a number of Strider's souls to our world in hopes that they would find humans with souls they were compatable with to join. Her brother did the same to combat her forces. When the Strider's souls connect with a compatable human then the Striders are able to transport to our dimension and the connected human gains enhanced physical ability. They also get either a weapon along with expertise in using it, or a simple magical ability due to being connected to the Other Realm. In times of dire need, a human and their Strider can fuse, becoming more powerful than either individually. Striders must be non-human in appearance and smaller than the average individual. They are supposed to be like a mix between friends and pets. Striders cannot be OCs. Striders can talk, regardless of if their source material can or not (for example, Pokemon).

 

Backstory, not truly necessary:

There was once a boy and girl, brother and sister, with an uncanny ability. They were connected to the Other Realm, a place of magic, parellel in space and time, in a reality different from our own. They could reach across the gap and communicate with the unique residents there. They were even able to travel to that strange and magical place by connecting each of their souls to the souls of the souls of individuals living in the Other Realm. The two siblings grew up, each with their own ideals, and ultimately found themselves at odds. The sister saw the emotional side of the Other Realm, in that they only way they were able to travel there was by linking their souls with others, and became a teacher in order to invest moral ideals into the modern youth in hopes that it would not only effect our world, but the Other Realm via their invisible connection. While the brother looked into the scientific nature of the Other Realm, he made breakthroughs in science, and strived to find a way to use his mind to bring the Other Realm and his world together. Eventually fame and wealth took its toll on him and he became corrupted. He then organized an event hosting many of the world's elite to come to his lab and observe his newest findings, coaxing them with the promise of wealth and power. It was there that he put his plan into effect, connecting his single soul to the souls of many residents of the Other World whom he had convinced to follow him via the promise of this other dimension to control. The "Striders" as they were now called, due to their striding between the two dimensions, hadn't counted on the adverse effects of linking all of their individual souls to his one. They arrived in this dimension a mere shadow of their former selves, brutes to be manipulated under their summoner's will, while his connection to them gave him access to the magic of the Other Realm. The brother used his Striders to slaughter the world leaders, leading the world into chaos. After discovering this, his sister attempted to stop him, but was overwelmed. With the remaining energy she had, she opened up the Other Realm, and pulled some special souls from it in hopes that they would find and bond with people their souls were compatible with. Upon connecting to a person's soul in this reality, the Striders would be able to bridge the gap to this world with none of the negative side effects that accompanied the Striders linked to the brother. By linking to the Striders, the humans became linked to the magic of the Other Realm, manifesting itself either in the form of a weapon or a special ability in addition to over all enhancing their physical ability. Upon discovering what his sister had done, the brother summoned forth key allies from the Other Realm as well, setting their souls off to link with the souls of humans as to hold off his sister's forces. This is the story of their joint souls.

Character sheet example:

 

Name: Blitz

 

Appearance: http://www.google.co...1t:429,r:10,s:0

 

Weapon or Ability: Incredible reflexes and agility

 

Strider: Sonic the Hedgehog

 

Strider Appearance: http://www.google.co...1t:429,r:10,s:0

 

Fused Appearance: Standard appearance but with Sonic's trademark shoes. His hair also becomes spikier and blue, his eyes become bright green, and blue energy cackles around him like lightning. A Sonic-esque spike also projects from each shoulder.

 

Bio: 5'11", 145 lb, Blitz was just a regular teenager whose life changed when he heard about what had happened to the world's leaders, and it changed even more so when Sonic linked souls with him and told him what really happened. He is a fairly high energy guy, but he keeps his head in a tight spot. He hates seeing others in pain, and will do whatever he can to save people from Vallen and his army of controlled Striders.

 

Alignment: Good

"I'm not sure. I really hope so, but just because they aren't attacking doesn't mean that they're not sizing us up or leading us into a trap. The one thing that makes me want to trust them, though, is that they really don't seem like the types of people Vallen would ever hire," Gwen answered.

"Fool!" called out Escavalier. "I can tell you right now whether they are trust worthy or not. However, I choose not to."

Gwen just rolled her eyes. "Sure, that's why."

Hank and Rick turned one last corner and approached a large rock. "Here we are partner's, home sweet home." said Hank.

 

Rick walked over and started to lift up the rock. "Ok, everybod in, i can't hold it forever." said Rick.

Takeshi and Guilmon were the first inside. They looked around and Takeshi said "Not bad, not bad at all. There seems to be enough room for everyone."

Drake rushed in "Wooo hoo!!!" he yelled. Spyro quickly ran in after him trying to pull him back.

 

"Great...I think I'm just gonna wait...riiight here," Fang said darkly. He didn't trust them, and part of him sensed a trap.

"Not a good idea." Takeshi said to Fang. "If you wait out there it makes it more likely that this place will get found out. Don't you think it'd look suspicious if someone was standing beside a giant rock, especially if he and his strider have been seen fighting Vallen's forces?"

"Right...I guess I'll go in..." he said reluctantly. He carried Growlithe inside watching the walls. Praying that his mistrust was irrational.

Tao excitedly explored the place, examining every nook and cranny there was. Tao rushed up to Hank, "Tao hungry, Tao want food now! You said there was food!" she demanded. "Tao! that's rude, they offered us a place to stay, show more respect," Alaster interjected. Tao pouted, rubbing her stomach, "But Tao hungry now!" she whined, this time going up to Rick, "Where's the food, Tao want food,"

"I know just the person, or strider, to help with that." said Rick. he then looked towards another area that was slightly shaded. "Hey Metalgelas, Throw Over Some Food Will Ya!" called Rick. Rick then saw something fast approaching and ducked at the last minute as a crate flew over him and hit the wall. Rick got back up and looked towards the wall, then back to the shaded area. "Mama Mia, i didn't mean it literally." said Rick. Metalgelas then showed up, he was about a foot shorter than Rick. (Metalgelas) Sorry, it's in my nature to throw things, plus, i've had nothing to do for about 3 hours.

 

(Trigger Happy) Yeah, were in same hill were you guys. asked Trigger Happy as he came out of the shaded area. "Hey, cut us some slack, you weren't the guys who had to shack Prowl only a few hours ago." said Hank.
