◦Introduction◦
Hello, role players of Earth and beyond! I felt the urge to bring a Steampunk or Medieval roleplay back into play, maybe one with elves or whatnot, but didn't think it would work; so, it got me thinkin', and I came up with this! NOW READ IT.
◦Table of Contents◦
•Introduction •Table of Contents •Story •Plot •Classes •Rules •Character Sheet •Administration
◦Story◦
"Wagner, start the power." Suddenly, 'wooshes' and 'vrooms' fill the air, and a disturbing blue light source floods the faces of your peers and you. The blue light slowly flashes as a ring turns inside the machine, getting faster with every turn, until it seems like it's flashing a hundred times per second. "Stabilizing power." A voice cuts in after hours of spinning. Or was it only seconds? The device stops accelerating and stays at the same pace. Again, time passes without knowledge of how fast. Then the light exploded.
◦Plot◦
The year is 2120. We've finally broken the secret to time travel; though it wasn't as we expected.
The machine, Time Era Migration, or T.E.M., has linked the centuries together. Cities have been replaced with kingdoms, towns with tents, highways with forests, and the Earth's population has seemed to double—maybe triple.
Knights on horses raid around the world, Roman conquerors of history plunder the land with their vast armies, and of course, the samurai are back.
The cause of this time merge was of the T.E.M. It was supposed to be experimental, but it did much more than that. It killed it's creators. It worked.
The T.E.M. *can* be turned off, but is constantly being hidden away, and held by those who do not understand it's purpose.
You need to not only survive in this—these eras, but you must also seek to turn off the T.E.M., before it is permanent.
You may be asking yourself, "How can this happen? Wouldn't it be in our history books? What about the Butterfly Effect?" Well, the T.E.M. doesn't quite work that way. It takes quantum theory and puts it into place; no longer a theory. It takes the dimensions that are exactly alike, but in different time periods, and merges them together to create what is now.
You must fight for the T.E.M., and turn it off. Not only that, but you must survive in the age of brutality, the Dark Ages, the Roman Empire, the Chinese dynasties, including the brutal savages and murderers: the Mongols.
◦Classes◦
Average Joe ¦ Average guy. Because average. And boring. And gray.
Knight ¦ This class wields a sword, and sometimes shield or horse. Commonly has armor.
Archer ¦ This class wields a bow, and sometimes wears armor. Empires and kingdoms vary in how they hold their arrows, ranging from quivers on their backs, to their sides, to simply holding them in their hands.
Samurai ¦ This class is specific to Asian countries. This class commonly has katanas or other such swords, throwing weapons such as throwing stars, and other such weapons. They are commonly trained in the art of stealth.
Modern-Day Soldier ¦ Modern-day soldiers still wield guns, protective clothing such as kevlar and helmets, has weapons such as grenades and tactical explosives like C-4.
Spy ¦ Spies are most commonly found in the Roman age, spies are trained in the art of stealth and deception. They commonly hold daggers and other, small weapons to take out their targets without being found out.
Gladiator ¦ Gladiators are most commonly found in the Roman age, usually holding protective masks that could be confused for a modern-day gas mask, as well as bulky armor and less common weapons such as spike balls or maces.
◦Rules◦
•No god-modding, meta-gaming, power-playing, etc. •Keep romance to a minimum, if any. •Keep cursing to a minimum; we could have kiddies watching over our shoulders! •Put the name of a historical figure in "Other" •All classes are not used within an empire, kingdom, or other such organizations. They are those who broke off, whether for simple reasons, or such as to break the merge. •Keep arguments out of the thread. If you have a problem with somebody, you can keep it to PM or party. If you need assistance from an admin, simply invite them to a party or message them.

No. I just need somebody to post there already. ;-;
Either way, separate roleplay. Doesn't really have anything to do with super powers anyway, so, y'know.

I always forget to make a CS on my own role play. ;-;
Name Baron Mack Newton
Age 27
Gender Male
Race/Empire/Kingdom Great Britain[Modern]
Appearance An average man. About 5'6", brown hair, his facial features appear almost pudgy because of his brown beard, connecting from one side of his head to the other, covering around his lip, on his chin, and his cheeks. Averagely built, not too thin, not too thick.
Class Average Joe
Biography Baron grew up in love with science and technology. He graduated college with several degrees in subjects of science, and was one of the scientists working with in the T.E.M. project. He wasn't there at the time of the explosion, lucky for him, so he survived the blast. It wasn't a very big one, also confined, so it was no surprise it didn't affect him.
Inventory HoloPhone - Basically, an iPhone 100, or something. Yeah. 22nd century ftw. M1911 Pistol
Other Yep. That's all I got for the biography. I'm not a very good example, am I? :I Also, correct me if an M1911 is a military-grade pistol. Not quite fond of guns.

I find it funny that there are literally thousands of 1911 clones, and counterparts that are way more reliable than the original M1911. Yet people still chose the original M1911A1 from the stone age.
Don't get me wrong, the M1911 is an amazing pistol. But there's better counterparts and clones out there.
Tldr I'm a gun nerd and I'm being nitpicky.
Mark. |

"Now that's an admin system I'll look forward to using

If you're referring to me being over everybody else, it was just simple... mmm... not sure how to put it. But seeing as I was the creator, it was obvious. If you'd rather administrators be on equal ground as me, I'll have no objections.
"So are WWII-Era/WWI-Era/Civil War-Era soldiers allowed?"
Yes. Dark Ages are of course here, so that shows that it's not only one time era, so I figure most eras are here, all combined.

Pressed post. Fail.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and pick Sig Sauer GSR, because it looks simple. :I
