The backstory

 

Gems. The dominant species of the galaxy. Both their namesake and their bodies stem from the gemstone found somewhere on their bodies. Even then, their bodies are just illusions, hosts to their gems and easily replaceable should they be damaged or destroyed so long as their gem is intact. When a Gem is “poofed” as this temporary death is popularly referred to, another Gem can contain the vulnerable gemstone in a bubble of energy to halt the regenerative process. Gem’s are capable of many other great feats. They can temporarily change their form at will, usually returning to the standard from they chose back when they were a simple gemstone. Gems are also capable of summoning a personalized weapon from their stone. Beyond that even, a number of gems have their own unique abilities. The greatest skill of a Gem, however, is fusion. Through the power of bonds, two Gems can become so close that they are able to become a single Gem that is more powerful than the sum of their parts. Usually performed through a dance, the stronger the Gems’ love for each other, the longer the fusion can be sustained.

 

Gems have no means of reproducing, and being prone to conflict, Gem population is very unstable. To maintain their species they invented a kind of drill-like machine called Injectors to plant gemstones into the crust of planets so that other Gems may be born from the planet’s life force. Unfortunately, controversy erupted between the Gems who cherished all life and the Gems that cared most for their own species.

 

Disclaimer and Rules

 

This is going to be an open world(s) character driven RP. The main conflict will be over the Injectors as well as personal quarrels between Gem characters. With no central linear plot, it’ll be hard to determine the lifespan and frequency of posts within the roleplay. Nevertheless, I hope we can all enjoy a little open-endedness here. 

 

-RULES-

 

-General KH13 Roleplaying rules apply. No overpowered characters. No killing without permission. Etc.

-This thread itself will be pretty important as the actual roleplay occurs. Come here to request permission for kills, ideas for planets to add to the Universe Atlas, or fusion concepts

-Right. Fusion. That’s the real kicker this roleplay has. If your character is bonding with another’s then fusion might just become possible. Talk with the maker of that character here or over PM and come up with a fusion of your characters. This whole new character can either be controlled by the two of you alternatively, or have one person take charge overall or per fusion. It’s really up to you.

-Multi Fusions. Now. Since Gem Fusions are their own beings, they are able to fuse as well. That being said, I won’t refuse to allow Multi Fusions, but it may get rather confusing as it goes on. So just be careful. 

-Please specify the planet (and character if applicable) you're on before posting

-If you have to drop out, please try and warn us ahead of time so you can work in whatever leads to your character leaving the story

-Put your favorite color on the bottom of your signup sheet to assure you’ve read these

 

Character Template

 

Name: Must be named after a gem/mineral/crystal

Preferred name: Optional. Makes it a little more personal than what they are.

Appearance: All gems are technically genderless. Use whichever pronouns you prefer, and feel free to swap between masculine and feminine looks if you end up being poofed. What was almost death could be a chance to reinvent yourself. Can be a picture and/or a description. Include shape and location of gemstone.

Weapon: Can be summoned from your gemstone at will. Have fun with this. Try not to get too complicated though. This isn’t RWBY.

Abilities: Go ahead. Be as creative or as simple as you like. Just don’t make yourself too overpowered

Backstory: Completely optional. Just to add a little more depth if you’d like.

Fusions: These are to be edited in once you form bonds within the RP

Boy, do I know a thing or two about Internet connection's fickleness, so that's entirely understandable for me too.  No rush, but I really look forward to seeing what you have come up with regarding your cherie.

I'm going to give Become a chance to post before I do again- Looking forward to seeing Ame in action!

My apologies for the hold up. I fell ill a couple of weeks ago and have only recently recovered. Projecting a Tuesday post at the latest.

HEY GUYS THERE IS A GEMSONA MAKER ON DOLL DIVINE AND ITS REALLY GOOD.

HERE IS GAHNOSPINEL- 

 

 I legitimately have no idea how many times I have changed her appearance. 

Is this RP still standing?

Is this RP still standing?

Hmmm...

I don't know...

Maybe?

I kind of don't think it is, but that would be for the GM to decide. I haven't seen Sikota online for a while, so I don't know where things officially stand.

When I get internet back, I'm going to finally fix all the rps I've made and failed. That being said, I've been planning an SU rp since I started watching the show. I stopped planning it when this one was announced, but if this RP is inactive, I can start planning again, and put it up as soon as I get real, genuine internet. Is that alright with everyone?

I'd be okay with it, I suppose.
