  • In a world with four corners, people are kept apart for their own good. In the beginning, there were twelve. The twelve monarchs were the ones that came up with their own race, hereby known as the twelve zodiacs. As time wore on though, they discovered that some got along with others, but not all got along with all. This led to a feud, which in turn led to the splitting of the place known as Omnia into four corners.

    Aeras, the high mountainous corner went to the Gemini, Aquarius and Libra zodiac race. Gaea, deep in the forest and a corner surrounded by endless fields went to the Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn zodiac race. Nero, a corner surrounded on one side by water and the other side by forests, went to the Cancer, Pisces and Scorpio zodiac race. And Fotia, the most deserted corner which was also the hottest, went to the Leo, Sagittarius and Aries zodiac race.

    The zodiacs settled in their respective colonies, making peace with only the other zodiacs in their corner while anyone else outside was an enemy. And in the centre of all four corners was the small island that was left behind that is all of what is left of Omnia that hasn't been separated. It's said to be a place of great power but nobody dares to go because nobody will know what they will find or what has been left behind.

    That was how it was for a few decades till scientists finally ventured out there to make something of the place. And then the new rule came in.

    Since Omnia was habitable, the rulers in each corner would send one person from each zodiac race every year for a period of one year in an attempt to see if peace can be achieved among all corners. The time has come for a new batch of young adults to be shipped there and only time will tell if this will be the time that the experiment succeeds or not because every other year, everyone sent to Omnia has died. And nobody knows if it's because of their differences, or if it is because of something else that lurks in the forests or caves of Omnia…

  • [if a power has been crossed out, that means it is taken]

    OMNIA
    Omnia is no man's land and the only place where every season exists. It is also the only place where a person's power works outside their home corner. Filled with the best technology of all four corners, there are automated shops and ATMs that collect and give money respectively and there are homes with TV and internet access. It's like any normal world, but more advanced and left to only twelve people.

    GAEA

Powers include Terrakinesis, Shapeshifting, Healing, Tremor Inducement, Zoolingualism.

    NERO
    Nero is forever decorated in red, orange and brown because it's always autumn there. The zodiacs that stay in Nero include Cancer, Pisces and Scorpio.

It is very refreshing to know someone from Nero though because they are different and always bring life to a place. Powers include Hydrokinesis, Telepathy, Super speed, Dreamwalking, Charmpseak.

    AERAS
    In Aeras, the weather is always cold. Winter is the sole season in this high up corner and the zodiacs that live in Aeras are Gemini, Aquarius and Libra. People from Aeras are unlike the weather. They are filled with an adventurous spirit and are very creative beings. They have imaginations that run rampant and rarely do they ever involve themselves in conflict. Powers include Teleportation, Aerokinesis, Telekinesis, Weather manipulation, Electricity manipulation.

    FOTIA
    Fotia is the land of summer and heat. It is not unbearable for those that live there because they are accustomed to it. The zodiacs that call Fotia home include Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. People from Fotia are passionate about whatever they do. Rarely do they do anything that does not interest them. They are known to be emotional and sensitive, but at the same time, they can be temperamental. Powers include Super strength, Pyrokinesis, Invisibility, Emotion manipulation and Thermal manipulation.

    THE CRESCERIUM
    The ceremony where children are sent to their rightful lands. It happens a few months after a child is born and happens twice every year. If you're lucky to be born in the same zodiac or in a zodiac that lives in the same corner as your parents, you stay with them. Otherwise, you're destined to live out your life with a foster family in another corner.



  • LIVING QUARTERS
    Everyone lives in individual houses that are all clubbed together in one area. All houses are identical and have one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen, closet and living room plus an attic for storage. It is fully furnished.

In regards to charmspeak and shapeshifting, how do they work/what are the limitations?

+ I hope this isn't a stupid question, but do you want us make our character requests on the thread or send them to you via PM?

Honestly I lack a favorite TV show but the one I like and have watched most recently would be Underground.

So, um. Going to claim these two here and get to work on my sheets when I get home:
Female ○ 20 ○ Gaea ○ Virgo ○ Healing ○ Felicia Porter
Male ○ 22 ○ Fotia ○ Sagittarius ○ Pyrokinesis ○ Ian Somerhalder

Are there any naming conventions I should be aware of? The Masters seem to lean towards Latin and Greek names, so do we follow that?

Edit: Where should the sheets go, once I finish them? I probably won't be done til tonight or tomorrow and I'm happy to wait if you'd like to make a character index thread or something.

Charmspeak is basically saying something and people do it. So the charm is a power over people and your character can decide when to use it and when not to. In this roleplay however you'll have to talk to a user before using it on their character because godmodding isn't allowed. And shapeshifting is either changing into an animal form or into other humans, but not both, so you can pick. Limitations and strengths are up to you, though there would be more limitations than strengths when we start off. And your characters are accepted!

Alrighty, bunch of random questions that I've been mulling over while working on my sheets. Sorry if they're self-explanatory, I just figured it'd be better to be safe rather than sorry. d:

• Names and such. Should they be Greek? Should they be Latin? Both? Either? Neither?
• How does ethnicity work, seeing as we're in another world? At least, I assume Omnia is a separate world.
• What's the difference between "Marks" and "Distinguishing Features"?

Names can be anything, same goes for ethnicities. Imagine it's the whole world that was split into four corners except the world is much smaller. So people from all countries would settle in all the corners because race has nothing to do with where they stay but their zodiac does. And marks are kind of like moles or beauty spots whereas distinguishing features are something abut them that stands out. It could be the same thing or it could be different.

Okay, cool. Thanks for the info. c:
