Edolas Event!

[Merc]

Plot

Fiore is a broad land, with many more lands, countries, and continents beyond it, but the universe as a whole is referred to as 'Earthland'. This might seem a bit peculiar, until one comes to learn that there are other universes, alternate universes, in which the same people might exist - or at least, a person with the same name, and perhaps even the same general appearance - but with an entirely different personality.

Edolas is one such place. An universe alternate to Earthland, though it has one large, defining difference. While Edolas has magic items, and is powered by magic, the people there do not have any magical abilities of their own - though, they are capable of wielding weapons that make them seem as if they do.

Due to the lack of magical ability in the people of the land of Edolas, as well as a surge in population over the years, the magic that exists there naturally is depleting faster than it can replenish. Scientists in Edolas have been working around the clock, to try to find a means to introduce more magic into their world, or at least a simulated substance that could be used like magic. Many experiments have been proposed, funded, and finished, with little to no positive results, which led some to take more dangerous, drastic measures, bypassing the rules and regulations of their government in order to perform intricate experiments to try to draw in magic from other worlds.

This failed miserably, causing holes to form in the very fabric that held the world together. These 'holes', while visible and avoidable in theory, are capable pf sucking any person nearby into them, at which point they are reported to have disappeared entirely from Edolas, though some would occasionally return just as suddenly, claming to have been to a world not so different from Edolas, where the inhabitants could use magic freely, while also having no idea how they managed to get back.

Officials of Edolas began to explore the possibilities - all coming to a single viable conclusion. The mages were lost in an alternate world known as Earthland, likely without knowing where they were or how to return. Additionally, many believe it to be a good chance to solve some of Edolas' problems. Could the mages of Earthland introduce magic into their world, and replenish the exhausted mana of the planet? Could they save Edolas?

Perhaps, but the appearance of those from Edolas was also causing a stir in Earthland, when 'alternate' versions of people were starting to pop up and cause trouble, earning their Earthland counterparts bad reputations or just generally causing mischief and mayhem.

Participation

Anyone and everyone can participate in this event, simply by playing an alternate version of their character, from the land of Edolas. Remember, they have no magic, and while they might resemble their Earthland counterpart in appearance, they would other act like an entirely different person.

The Edolas version of your character is lost in a strange world, which resembles that of their world, but with a great deal more magic, and people that are able to use magic. They can have a weapon equipped with magic, if you so desire, and while you may choose the form of a weapon (sword, axe, staff, etc.), the effect will not be of your choosing.

The Edolas characters can do whatever you please, but your 'normal' character will have to investigate the appearance of doppelgangers and strange vortex like holes that have appeared throughout Fiore. These strange holes have a strong wind siphoning out of them that will not allow anyone to enter. That is all that is known at this point.

This event will be a little different, as you will at times be required to work together with other players. Additionally, the solution to this will remain a mystery, which must be solved. The first person to correctly guess this solution, will receive an additional bonus. The solution is a mystery to all but me, as such I am the only person not eligible for it.

Making a placeholder for Riley and Maddox in case I feel the desire to RP them.

Riley will have an ornamental staff, Maddox a bow. Will roll a dice to see which enchantment they get when the time comes (Aka when I have the energy to find a dice rolling site).

In the mean time! The weapons for everyone else are as follows:

Name: Yoichi Sugiyama
Weapon: Sword
Enchantment Name: Lunaria
Enchantment Effect: A rare sort of enchantment, with a special effect - it is a dual elemental enchantment, with a bit of a catch. When the sun is present (even if obscured by clouds), the weapon is endowed with the powers of Fire magic, while during the night this fire magic converts to ice. The Fire magic within this sword is incredibly offensive, capable of unleashing fireballs via slashes, while the Ice magic is more defensive, offering a sturdier weapon that is capable of withstanding a single magic attack of a single level higher than itself.

Name:Battler Myrddin
Weapon: Sword
Enchantment Name: Leach Mana
Enchantment Effect: A simple, but very effective, useful enchantment, which absorbs spells of equal or lower level that are fired at it. Using it two posts in a row causes the weapon to overheat, making it unuseable. The mana is absorbs is granted to the wielder, replenishing their supply.

Name: Tsukiko Shimizu
Weapon: Katanas
Enchantment Name: Cherry Blossom
Enchantment Effect: When a weapon enchanted with this is wielded, a cloud of cherry blossom petals appear behind them. These can be used defensively, forming a shield before the user, or offensively, by unleashing them with high powered slashes that send the petals flying at the opponent - each petal acting as a razor, capable of cuting flesh or clothing. They can also be used as a sort of 'fog', to conceal ones movements.


Name:Durriken Gale
Weapon:Whip
Enchantment Name: Solaris
Enchantment Effect: A rare sort of enchantment, with a special effect - it is a dual elemental enchantment, with a bit of a catch. When the sun is present (even if obscured by clouds), the weapon is endowed with the powers of Light magic, while during the night this light magic converts to darkness. The Light magic within this weapon is a powerful healing magic, while the dark magic contain all of the offensive power. The 'dark' version of the weapon is capable of unleashing slashes that launch discs of darkness.

Name: Syana
Weapon: Chakrams.
Enchantment Name: Tempest
Enchantment Effect: An enchantment that can summon the forces of snow, wind, and hail with the single swipe of a weapon. As the magic flow into this weapon increases, the 'storm' becomes more powerful, and at higher levels can even become a tornado of sorts, with hailstones the size of baseballs that can easily rip through flesh.

Name: Christopher Greyknow
Weapon: Shield
Enchantment Name: Reflection
Enchantment Effect: Another self explanitory enchantment. The user is able to reflect back a magical attack that is cast at it, if it is of equal or lower level to the weapon itself. Using this two posts in a row causes the weapon to overheat.


Name: Syo Locks
Weapon: Dual Daggers
Enchantment Name: Neuratalizer
Enchantment Effect: The effect of this weapon is simple - it neutralizes magic within a certain radius of the weapon. The radius depends on level of the weapon. At Greenhorn level, it starts as a meere 5 feet, but for each level it progresses, the radius expands by 5 feet (Feeble 10 feet, Mediocre 15 feet, etc).

Name: Shinzu
Weapon: Katana
Enchantment Name: Illusive Illusions
Enchantment Effect: An illusion based enchanment, the weapn can create phantoms of itself within the users hand, or if it is long range can disort itself to make it unclear exactly where the weapon is, making it harder to dodge. It can can also make itself appear shorter, longer, thinner, broader, etc, and can essentially take on the illusianry shape of any weapon (while physically remaining the same).

Name: Sakura
Weapon: Inversed Bat'leth
Enchantment Name: Riptide
Enchantment Effect: An enchantment that can summon the forces of the waters. It is particularly powerful when near a body of water of some sort. Otherwise, it simply pulls water molecules from the air, giving them physical form. The water swirls around the wielder, forming a protective barrier equal to the level of the weapon itself, or can be used to lash out in attacks.

Step One: Investigation

First and foremost, your Edolas character can be anywhere, doing anything. You do not yet have to encounter them, but be sure to try and have some fun with them if you can! Mess with some other characters, make them angry, maybe ruin a friendship or two and make a new one! (None of that is necessary, of course. Just throwing out ideas).

Now, for the past that actually need to be done! Your character must travel to at least one of these vortex that a doppelganger appeared through, OR, investigate the rumor of a doppelganger (does not have to be your own! Feel free to talk amongst yourself and meet the Edolas version of another person's character. This whole event is aimed to get people RPing together, afterall!).

Remember, no one is able to get close to this vortex, because of a strong wind siphoning out of it! However, your characters do not know this, or anything, about these strange portals, aside the fact that they suddenly appeared and chaos has erupted since.

[John King Fisher]

Name: John King Fisher
Weapon: Magic Rifle
Number: 38707507103948123847

[Durriken Petulengro]

Name: John King Fisher
Weapon: Rifle
Enchantment Name: Unyielding
Enchantment Effect: A bullet fired from this rifle cannot be stopped. It will penetrate any armor or barrier of equal level or lower. Once a barrier has been penetrated, the rifle takes three posts to recharge enough energy to fire another unyielding shot. Note: This shot does not 'shatter' the barrier or armor it just acts as if the barrier was never there.

Name: Sora
Weapon:Staff
Enchantment Name: Reversal of Fortune
Enchantment Effect: When activated this enchantment swaps the magical and physical stats of the user until the enchantment is deactivated. Magical Attack swaps with Strength, Magical Defense swaps with Endurance, and Willpower swaps with Speed.
