Welcome to the world of Neo Genesis!
Dive into the game and play for keeps, but be careful, you don't want to lose...
*WARNING! THERE'S A LOT TO READ.*
OVERVIEW
Neo Genesis is an online game that has taken the world by storm. Over time, nearly the entire population of Earth has converted into the digital world to play. The company in charge of Neo Genesis, LEGEND, slowly gained enough power to take over all of the world. They began by buying all main suppliers to the worlds markets and manufacturing, and eventually gained a monopoly. Now, anything created in the world has the trademark symbol of LEGEND.
LEGEND has created a new system of living. Now, your status in the game determines your status in real life. In each household, at least one person must play Neo Genesis in order to keep their family not only afloat, but out of prison.
When you lose all valuables in the game, whether it be losing an Arena battle or dying in a no-respawn zone, you have two options:
Option one is that you restart, in which your family in the real world becomes extremely poor, and you only get one shot to try again.
Option two is to try and win an Arena battle to reclaim all of your previous possessions and character, but you are fighting against LEGEND characters, advanced opponents.
If you fail at either of these options, LEGEND will come for you in the real world and take you to prison. The LEGEND prisons make you work, and in most cases, the individual is never seen again.
Now this is where you come in. You and your character must go into the game and try to survive. Can you climb to the top? Can you bring yourself fame, fortune? Or are you looking to destroy the LEGEND corporation? Well now's your chance!

Rules
Rules
1) Usual Iwaku rules. No god-modding, Mary/Gary Sues, all-powerful characters or just being an asshole. We're all friends here, gettin' ready for a good roleplay. :3
2) Please post at least once every week. I know some people are busy with real life, so if there's somewhere you need to be, let us know ahead of time and we'll work something out, like moving your character somewhere while you're gone, or having them do something. We want this roleplay to be active, because we're impatient. XD
3) While roleplaying there will be two worlds, In-Game and Real Life. At the beginning of each reply/response, I'm asking that you put a green IN-GAME at the top of the post is you're expressing an in-game character, or a Red REAL LIFE at the top, that way we know exactly what we're seeing. Don't wanna get real-life mixed up with fantasy!
4) For this roleplay you will need two characters, an In-Game character and a Real Life character to play them. You can have the same Real Life character for multiple In-Game characters.
5) The roleplay is not rated, so you can do what you want. Cursing, kissing, whatever. The only thing I ask is that if you're going to have sexual scenes with someone, please make it closed-doors. I do encourage moving your steamy romance to a private chat though, because who doesn't like a good romp?
6) If you read the rules, please put a banana emoji somewhere in your character sheet. :)

Wispin Woods, Hylian Province - During the Great Struggle between the Kitsune and the Human people, a great forest lay exactly in between the kingdoms. A poet by the name of Leon was a Human prince destined to overtake his fathers struggle, and a bard named Ayamei, daughter of a Kitsune noble, met during a scouting mission into the Wispin Woods. After nearly killing each other, the two began talking, and soon enough they fell in love. Every day, the two would find ways to escape their war driven lives and escape into the Wispin Woods. The Woods were notorious for, "swallowing adventurers whole". Those who entered almost never returned, however, the two lovers always managed to find one another. Everyday the two would meet in the center of the woods, in a small gazebo, it is here that the world stood still, sun shafts dotting the chapel and birds singing the most beautiful songs. They always parted with a kiss on their lips, and a song in their hearts. Until one day, Leon never showed, and so Ayamei investigated. She came upon an army, gathering at the woods edge, but Leon was nowhere in sight. Ayamei looked around frantically for her love, and she saw him, just as the army marched into the woods. He was strung up, hung upside down with magical rope. They knew about the two lovers. In a flash, Ayamei freed him from his bonds, and they fled to the gazebo. The warriors took notice and chased after the lady fox who was making her escape with her lover. The couple reached the gazebo, but got no farther. The Kitsune were just over the crevice that seperated the gazebo from the army of foxes. The lovers stood back to back, trying to figure what they should do to keep blood from being shed. Before long, the human army caught up, and the two sides were at a stand still. Ayamei and Leon's parents tried their best to coax them to return, but the two refused. The armies clashed, despite the pleas of their parents to halt, but once the warriors came upon the gazebo, a bright light shone around the Lovers, and the armies were pushed back and into the trees, never to be seen again. The two lovers embraced as their bodies deteriorated and disappeared.
It is said that the Wispin Woods are cursed with True Love. None can successfully pass without the power of true love. It is said the birds chirp the song of the Lovers if you listen well. Many speculate that the lore of the Wispin Woods is more than just a story, and reports come in from time-to-time about hearing strange music in that area, or seeing out of the ordinary characters. Nobody is sure if the gazebo exists, but some still search for it to this day.
Cordendum Mines, Limelight Province - Hundreds of years ago, the Dwarves of Urustagar came to this land to recreate their kingdom, which had been ravaged by war. They dug deep into the Earth and created yet another kingdom that rivaled their homeland and they called it, "Cordendum" which in Dwarven means, "Heaven Below". They made pillars and giant clocks, they served as the center of trade for nearly a century. Then, of course, their time ended. The material the dwarves thought was gold turned out to be Amadamite, or "Deathstone" in small quantities the mineral was harmless. But in a mine, this was far from the case. The dwarves deteriorated as others fled the mines. It is said the Deathstone has eroded the brains of the Dwarven corpses still there. It is said they haunt the mines to this day. Digging deeper and deeper into the Earth. More Amadamite. Golems to defend them. Cordendum is now a place of ruin and evil, ghoulish Dwarves, hell bent on preserving their grounds. The clocks still tick on and on. Adding the time.
The area of the mines is difficult to enter, because being in the area causes sudden drops in health by poisoning. The mines have rarely been explored, because adventurers always run out of resist-poison potions before they can go deeper.
Capital City Arcana, Destro Province - Arcana is the capital for nearly everything you could possibly need. The glittering spires of Arcana are a shining beacon to all of Neo Genesis of merchants, heroes, and champions alike to join forces, "United we are Stronger".
The capital city has a large number of NPC's and social-gathering taverns to trade with players and chat. Arcana also holds the World Trade Center, which has the banks, warehouses and trading outposts. This acts as the Real Life words economy.
The city itself is huge, as is the entire game. The expanse of the game seems impossibly massive, but it still functions without lag or server complications.
Blessed Woods, Hylian Province- War is fear. War is lonely. War is a scar. The Blessed Woods personify this. Centuries ago, during the first Kitsune dynasty, the kingdom of Herevore declared war upon the Kitsune and all of their allies. At this point in time, the Kitsune were low on allies and they were a small people. So naturally, they turned to other worldly powers for assistance. The first Kitsune ruler, Amaris FireTail, cast a spell, calling for help from the spirit realm. Successful in her spell casting, the very spirits themselves materialized and rushed to her aid. At first, nothing seemed wrong, but the spell had a price. The armies went to war, the vast army of Herevore against the might of the Kitsune and their allies. Oceans of blood were spilt, and hundreds of thousands of corpses littered the ground. The battle was won. The kitsune stood, fewer in number, but victorious against the nation that tripled them in size. The spell cast by Amaris had one more part to it. All who died in the war knew know peace, the rose as spirits, doomed to fight for the rest of eternity. Among the dead kitsune was Amaris herself, still Empress of a nearly dead dynasty. If you enter the Blessed Woods to this day, you will see spirits battling to the death, and if your in far enough, an Empress still trying to lead her people to victory in the wake of a war long forgotten.
In the game, you can see wandering spirits, some who have quests for you, and some who just act-out fighting. The soundtrack for the woods changes from eerie to peaceful, and there are some secret places hidden in the forests.
Underwater Cities of Ampira - The Underwater Cities of Ampira have been a secretive society for as long as history was written. Being as it is in the bottoms of the Abecean Ocean, only the race itself can visit them, and they are said to have more advanced weaponry than the surface, but they do not share any information with them.
If you spawn as the Abecean race, you can visit smaller underwater cities all around the game, but can only visit the Capital City Duske when your level is maxed. Those who have visited the city have never returned though, and there are rumors that they are taken to a secret society in the real world.
Limelight Province - The Orc homeland, positioned on the other side of the Abecean Ocean. The Orcs lived in seclusion most of their lives, but a few hundred years ago, their Homeland of Limelight was wiped out by a natural disaster, which left the race devastated. With nowhere else to go, they fled across the sea seeking a new place to inhabit, but came upon an already-populated world. It was here that the Orcs lived in camps, trying to keep to themselves but survive at the same time.
In the game, Orc encampments can be found almost everywhere, but they are closer to the Ocean and less so near the capital.
((If you read all of that, goddamn you deserve a medal. You're a trooper.))
