Tantamount, What is the price for equality? Rating Options

[Nightstorm]

((This being my first attempt at creating an RP, I can’t promise a good time, but I’ll try my best. With that said, let us move on to the basics.

Anyone can join at anytime throughout the RP. No user is limited to the use of one character; just make sure that all characters are efficiently kept track of. For character use, any will do. You could range from anyone from cartoons/anime and video games to the fictional characters in written media. This can also include self-made characters if you want to use them as well. The only limitation is that I ask you to try to avoid using characters already used within the Infinium RP.

For signing in, the usual bios will work.

Name:
Age:
Media (You can include “Self-made” here if you’d like and exclude the next one):
Name of Media:
Description (This will include appearances, powers, background story, and whatever else you can come up with. This section I’m not picky about but the four above ones are essential.):
Other info:

Now then, onto the story part of this. This RP takes place in another dimension or realm. The characters can start out wherever, but they’ll all still be contained within a bridge micro-realm known as Magna Tohlin, basically ten times the size of a massive city. Now it’ll be up to you as to how your character is summoned or teleported or whatever into this micro-realm, but for the general, I’ve included the following situation for those who go with the “summoning” aspect.

NOTE: By the time of this edit, the group is now within a realm known as Kemla. Due to this, the below summoning intro can still be used so long as it is discussed with me, but I'd advise that new characters seek alternative methods to reach our protagonists.
________________________________________

The enveloping white light slowly fades from your eyesight as details to your surroundings are restored. You seem to be standing, and yet adrift; conscious, yet trying to wake up from this surreal dream.

A small house rests in front of you, its sole occupant standing before you; a young woman shrouded in the shadows. http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...xholic02ka4.jpg http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...liccoversx8.jpg

You don’t exactly know what to say at the moment. Only one question comes to mind. “What happened?”

“You have been called,” the woman replies bluntly, keeping her stare locked on you and you alone.

Your head’s still a little groggy, so trying to make sense of all this is a struggle. “Called? I don’t understand,” you reply, shaking your head. “Where am I? And more importantly, who are you?”

“Who I am is of no importance - for now,” the woman states. “You are here because it was determined that you and I should meet. You have been called because you are capable of fulfilling a particular need of a world - a duty that the realms wish to be completed.”

“Then... I’m no longer in...” you stop as you slowly begin to realize your situation. The woman gives no response, so you continue.

“Why have I been called? Why not find someone else?” you ask in earnest. You were going to continue about the needs that you had to look over back within your own world, and how fulfilling someone else’s wish on the fly wasn’t exactly plausible, but the woman cuts you off.

“Your coming here was inevitable, my dear, regardless of whether you wanted to or not,” she explains. “You have a destiny to complete and there are others who follow the same path as you. The road already lies ahead of you - all you have to do now is take the first step.”

Already, you feel a strange feeling wash over your body - almost as though every molecule were stretching away from the other. A feeling similar to static electricity, an elastic sensation that makes your hair stand on end.

The scenery around you begins to grow darker and fade into the shadows of the background. It’s exactly like what had happened before you wound up at this weird place. “Wait, destiny? What do you mean; what am I supposed to do?”

The woman gives a small smile. “Simply find the others like yourself; you will need their strength for the road ahead. You all must be able to rely on each other.”

“When you feel you are ready, come find me again,” she said as though it were a farewell.

And it was. The next moment, darkness completely overtakes your vision and you simply hear her parting words before all senses leave your consciousness.

“Remember - there is no such thing as coincidence; fate will guide your path...”

-------------------------------------

Yuko stood quietly by after the person had departed. There would be more to come, so she had to be ready and guide them the same as she’d done before. Perhaps during the wait, she’d gorge herself on a bit more of Watanuki’s home cooking...
______________________________

Name: Toa Kopaka

Age: Approx. 100,000+ yrs. old

Media: Toy line, Web franchise, Film, Game

Name of Media: Bionicle

Description:
Appearance:
Height: 6'0"

Weight: Unknown

Physical appearance: http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...7423/8571-1.jpg
While not exactly what one would consider a cyborg, he is half machine and half organic. His armor is pure white and silver while his limbs are a faded gray.

Powers:
Weapons: Dual Ice Blades that can be combined into one sword or used as two. They can also act as skis on Kopaka’s feet. In addition, he also wields a shield strapped to his left arm.

Elemental: Complete elemental creation and control over ice. Able to summon instant-freezing blizzards on the fly or create something as simple as a drop in the atmosphere's temperature by a few degrees.

Masks: Though his trademark mask is the Akaku, Kopaka has several white Kanohi in his inventory, but only one can be used at a time.

http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/1.jpg The Kanohi Nuva Akaku - the Great Mask of X-Ray Vision - allows him to see through anything nearly 1/4 of a mile underground. In addition, its mechanical components allow him to use the mask as a portable telescopic lens as well, able to spot minute details from great distances.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/2.jpg The Kanohi Nuva Hau - the Great Mask of Shielding - allows him to create an impenetrable barrier around himself and close allies as long as his concentration holds.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/4.jpg The Kanohi Nuva Kaukau - the Great Mask of Water Breathing - allows him to breathe underwater indefinitely.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/3.jpg The Kanohi Nuva Miru - the Great Mask of Levitation - gives him an extra boost in aerial abilities such as jumping and also allows partial floating powers.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/5.jpg The Kanohi Nuva Kakama - the Great Mask of Speed - allows him to move and maneuver at mach speeds as well as giving him matching reflexes.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/6.jpg The Kanohi Nuva Pakari - the Great Mask of Strength - gives him a massive boost in physical strength, allowing him to easily deal with objects nearly 50 times his size.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/7.jpg The Kanohi Mahiki - the Mask of Illusion - grants him access to the powers of illusion so long as his concentration is held.
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...storm7423/8.jpg The Kanohi Huna - the Mask of Concealment - allows him to become invisible to all forms of vision.

Weaknesses: Full immunity to the element of ice. Vulnerable to nearly any energy attacks and all melee attacks, though the melee's force is deafened thanks to the armor.

Personality: True to his element, Kopaka is cold and calculating. He prefers to work alone, and considers "duty" to be his #1 priority, but his considerate heart will allow him to help those in need should the opportunity force itself upon him.

Background: Kopaka was created as one of six backup Toa whose destiny was to save the life of the Great Spirit Mata Nui should things go ill for the universe. After a malfunctioned hybernation for over 100,000 years, Kopaka united with the other five Toa of his model to take down all threats to the Great Spirit's life, ranging from the reign of Makuta Teridax and the Bohrok on the island of Mata Nui to the war against the Dark Hunters and the Brotherhood of Makuta on Voya Nui and Karda Nui. With the Great Spirit awake and saved, and yet banished from the universe by Teridax, Kopaka has currently been on the run with the other Toa from Teridax whilst they seek any remaining help to oppose the rampant Makuta.

Other info: Particularly has a bitter hatred towards "fire-spitters" (beings whose element is fire), due to the fact that most he'd come to meet were quick to attack, arrogant, and always trying to be the leader and order others around.

[P-girl]

"Erm, hehe....." Axl said, smile turning a bit scared. After his encounter with I-no, he became a bit.... paranoid with comments like that.

[Anime Princess]

"are you ok" asked kaori

[P-girl]

"Fine.... fine.... I'm just a bit jumpy about jokes about killing...." Axl said. "So, er.... change of subject. I think we're here for the same reason."

[Anime Princess]

"you do" replied kaori

[P-girl]

"Well, before I came here, there was this.... woman, who said I was needed in this world or something.... and that I would meet more people like me, and that it's faith to work together...." Axl said, trying to remember the exact words.

[Anime Princess]

Kaori thought for a moment "i remember being told that too"

[P-girl]

"Knew it." Axl said. "So it was our destiny to meet each other."

[Anime Princess]

Kaori looked down for a second "yea i guess" replied kaori quietly

[mightymarty2]

Martin looked around a few people did not fit in here

[P-girl]

"Hey, that's a good thing, right?" Axl said. "Us finding each other was easy, and finding the others, if there are any, will probably be just as easy."

[Anime Princess]

"i guess" replied kaori

[P-girl]

"So, let's go find the others!" Axl said, pumping his fist.

[Anime Princess]

"ok" replied kaori smiling slightly

[Another Morning]

After waking up in small, unfamiliar bed, it took Terra a moment to collect enough energy to get up. The rest of the room was totally empty, a layer of dust indicating that nobody had been their for a while, but there was a large window on one wall. Walking towards it, she looked down to see a crowded, urban street. A small, worried frown spread across her face. After getting out of Zozo, she had been looking forward to some down time on the way back to the Returners headquarters.

She watched the street for a while. Of all the times for that strange woman to call her here. She'd just started to learn about herself and remember the parts of her past that had always alluded her. Her power source, her parentage, it had all hit her so fast. All she needed was to be thrown into this strange world while having to come to terms with what she now knew she was.

Taking a deep breath, she left the room and went the the stairs, which lead to another long-abandoned entry. Checking to make sure she had her sabers and her magicite, she stepped out into the street. Might as well get this over with as fast as she could.

[Ranma]

Far off from everyone else, in a desolate, isolated part of the world where no life could be found, a man appeared. At first, only his feet were visible, and a golden glow appeared and continued upwards. As the glow travelled upwards the man's body became visible.

This man was the world's "counter guardian." He was only summoned when the world was in danger, and his job was to destroy whatever was threatening the world. No matter what, or who it may be. This man, known as Shiro Emiya, already knew what the world was like. He was summoned, and given the knowledge required for living in the current world so that he could blend in. Now he just had one goal; find the threat and eliminate it.

[Anime Princess]

Kaori glanced around thankfully her left eye had mended itself so she could see properly.

[Nightstorm]

A small idea came to Kopaka's mind. Instead of wasting time searching for the others in this over-populated realm, he should probably see if he could find that house that he'd seen before during his teleportation. If there were others, he'd most likely find them there since they had the same goal in mind.

Of course, the next question became - where exactly was the house?

The young boy's ( http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...7423/rphiro.jpg http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee199/N...7423/img_02.jpg )heart and lungs were screaming for him to stop with this punishment. He'd been running around - literally - throughout Magna Tohlin, but his search kept proving fruitless. He was supposed to find these newcomers, but he had no clue what they looked like or where they'd landed.

Jeez, couldn't the person who'd invented dimensional travel have placed tags or something on those who decided to use said travel?

"Let's go find the others!" Wait, others??? The boy slid to a stop the instant he heard those words, but given that there were so many people around, he couldn't pinpoint the voice. It was probably just a false hope, but he had to find whoever had said that.

[Anime Princess]

Kaoris bionic eye picked up on a little boy who seemed to be looking for someone "i wonder if he's looking for us or others like us"

[P-girl]

"One way to find out." Axl said, as he started waving. "Oi!"

[Nightstorm]

The boy spun in the direction of Axl's yell. His head tilted to one side in confusion for a moment but then he trotted over to Axl and Kaori. "Um, excuse me," he asked a bit sheepishly. This was really an awkward way to go about things, but... "May I ask - you wouldn't happen to be part of the newcomers, would you?"
