( there exists a world between Life, Dreaming, and Death... )

The old guard has fallen, paving the way for a new era... In the wake of Malicant's defeat, the kedan have taken back both their identities and the city of Keeliai in the merged Dreaming and Life Planes. The hatchling turtles, the last offspring of their cosmic race, were forced to abandon their home and return to the seas of Konryu, and their exact whereabouts are unknown. Three major family factions -- the mafia-like Snakes, the reclusive Woodsmen, and the industrious Metalworkers -- have risen to prominence while the Foreigners were absent. They now dominate the city with a power struggle that has spawned new allegiances, new technology, and new threats to be faced. Meanwhile, the other nations of Konryu, no longer united by the threat of Malicant, have turned their eyes to Tu Vishan, looking to take its wealth and resources for themselves. Moreover, the distinction between the merged Life and Dreaming planes is fading, and with that comes the discovery of strange abilities to conjure -- both intentionally and not -- things into reality. Combined with magical artifacts bestowing unusual powers on those who find them, life on the turtle is anything but tame. For the Foreigners who remain on Tu Vishan, and those who now find themselves arriving through tears in the fabric of the realms, they must forge a new path for themselves in a world who does not believe it needs them any longer. How will they choose to be involved in writing the new history of Keeliai? Will some take this opportunity to make a niche for themselves in the complicated political arena, or in the secretive black market? Will they make alliances or enemies of the many other nations coming to call?

Particularly Sansa, Ned, Tyrion, Littlefinger, Cersei, Renly, Brienne, but seriously anyone. NOTES: Politically inclined characters like Littlefinger or Cersei would be an amazing match for this game--there's a ton of political wrangling going on in the city. There's also a lot of exploration/adventure/SoL stuff for everyone else too! Assassin's Creed TAKEN: Shay Cormac; Arno Dorian WANTED: Any and all, particularily castmates from Rogue and Unity. NOTES: Any and all Assassin's Creed castmates are welcome. Avatar: The Last Airbender/Legend of Korra TAKEN: None WANTED: Everyone! Especially the Gaang and Korra. NOTES: Zuko and Kiyi are on reserve. DC Universe TAKEN: Aya (Green Lanter: the Animated Series), Tim Drake/Red Robin (Pre-52 comics), John Constantine (Constantine/Hellblazer), Zatanna Zatara (Young Justice Animated) WANTED: Would love to have any of the DC/Vertigo comics or tv/movie characters from Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, Legends, Young Justice, Constantine, Lucifer, Gotham, Batman, an adult Zatanna and the list goes on. Someone to keep John Constantine from convincing natives to throw Jedi into the fighting pits preferable. FIREFLY / SERENITY TAKEN: River Tam, Simon Tam WANTED: ANYONE NOTES: Someone come keep these Tam siblings out of trouble! Fullmetal Alchemist TAKEN: None WANTED: Any and All NOTES: To obtain something, something of equal value must be given, except here, because everything here seems to be a wonderful exception to the rule. <3 Skulduggery Pleasant TAKEN: Skulduggery Pleasant, China Sorrows, Anton Shudder, Solomon Wreath, Erskine Ravel WANTED: ANYONE, but especially Valkyrie Cain, Ghastly Bespoke, Tanith Low, and any of the other Dead Men. NOTES: Have you read the Skulduggery Pleasant series? Did it rip your heart out and stomp all over it like a used-up cigarette? Do you long for some sort of catharsis, or itch to get your fingers into all of this drama because you're as horrible as we are? You're in luck! App one of these horrible wonderful characters and you'll inherit a whole group of like-minded individuals. We have drama. And Kleenex. And possibly cookies. Star Wars TAKEN: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Kylo Ren WANTED: Anyone and everyone! Any medium or continuity. Especially want Padme Amidala, Ahsoka Tano, Luke Skywalker, and Leia Organa, Han Solo, Rey, Qui-Gon Jinn NOTES: A new plot development will introduce the Force to the game and allow the possibility of NPCs and other characters to become Force sensitive. Which will lead to the training of these characters to use the Force. Tales of Vesperia TAKEN: Yuri Lowell and Duke Pantarei WANTED: Anyone! Especially Flynn Scifo and the main party. NOTES: Yuri has established and is running a Brave Vesperia guild. YU-GI-OH! DUEL MONSTERS TAKEN: Yami no Bakura WANTED: Any NOTES: Any YGO series would be welcome, not just DM-era Character Type: Vampires TAKEN: None WANTED: ALL OF THEM. Vampire Diaries. Southern Vampire Mysteries/True Blood. Vampire Chronicles. Vampire: the Masquerade. We want them all. NOTES: We have one genuine vampire hunter, and a whole cast who come from a world where vampires are horrible monsters, so the reaction to a new vampire might not be overwhelmingly positive. But there will absolutely be shenanigans. At least one character is likely to have a nervous breakdown. Come be awful with us.

I'll think of something better than 'conned' and 'conned' tomorrow when I'm fully awake.

Fixed it finally. Sorry about the swap out.
