Fomorian Defense Force: King B
Officially Unofficial Opening Theme: Omoide wa Okkusenman by Jam Project.
Accepting New Characters: Yes. At least three FDF pilots and two kaiju are needed before we started. More could definitely work.
Posting Expectations: A post a week from each involved player will keep me happy. If you are comfortable with at least getting three hundred or so words, even more, out per IC then that would be boffo. Going past 1,200 might be pushing it though; I personally don't likes walls of text.
Rating: Pg-13. Collateral damage is handwaved. Occasional fanservice.
Intro:
In the near future, a discovery made in the Aztec ruins which were jumped upon by a group of Japanese archeologist, and by another in the Egyptian ruins. Tablets and hieroglyphics telling of giants and powerful suits of armor, all of which strikingly similar, and all giving what seemed to be instructions left for the royal families for when another "crisis" happened. These discoveries were kept under wraps, quickly seized by the Japanese government, with similar findings also obtained by a bribed British team who searched the Mesopotamian ruins. The translation process took long enough, but soon the realization came that what they were dealing with was beyond that of their current scientist.
That was until the very eccentric, very childish, and quite possibly insane Dr. Tadashi Hiraga was on the job. Where others were stumped for a year, he found solution in a month, or at least claimed to. The actual translator was a Ms. Reiko Akoga (you get a cookie if you can spot the pun), who was simply hired to fetch coffee and look pretty. The day straight back from the hospital after a head injury caused by a hail sized meteorite, she could read the text without knowing why, and she thus wasn't believed. So Dr. Hiraga was quickly given the upmost attention by the Special Defense Force, to which he demanded that select children, aged six to sixteen, from military families would be taken and trained as pilots for the future recreations of the ancient giants, or Fomorians, as he called them. These children became known as special SDF until called the FDF, or Fomorian Defense Force.
Despite her assumed foolishness, Reiko wasn't fired from her job. However, after only a year of the Fomorian project's development, Reiko ran off with number of Dr. Hiraga's blueprints. This was only a day after the first reported sighting of an Anklosauruslike monster rampaging through the Kansai region, which sent the media and Otaku in an uproar, somewhat calmed by the press release and first prototype of the Fomorian project. After her escape, Reiko was put on Japan's most wanted for treason, and has been rumored to be in leagues with the yakuza.
A decade later, and the pilots (now ages 16 to 26, both very dangerous ages in very different ways) have almost perfected their control over their machines. But more importantly, it looks like they are going to be needed. Two weeks ago, a string of meteors have been reported to have fallen at the islands with surprising frequency, shortly followed by what has been reported as a return of Kaiju attacks, though they seemed confused and uncoordinated. The two attackers were suppressed by regular SDF forces, to the surprise that the things changed into something that looked quite human- the subjects have been under heavy interrogation and testing since. However, the Anklosauruslike Kaiju, suspected to be Reiko Akoga, appeared again, joined by three other Kaiju. Together, they beat SDF forces with ease. Going through major repairs and maintenance after a major training exercise the FDF was unable to be of any assistance. However, Dr. Hiraga, piloting a Fomorian prototype, was able to stall long enough for remaining SDF forces to safely escape with the two captured kaiju.
The department is enraged, as the final combined form of the Fomorians is incomplete, though each individual one is confirmed ready for action. The Japanese government is refuses to accept foreign help in this crisis. However, it has been discovered that Dr. Hiraga has been having surprise meetings with the U.S president, raising even further department suspicion to the FDF's father.
