Default Kingdom Hearts: XIII Beats [OoC]

You are one of the many children from Radiant Garden under the rule of sage-king Ansem the Wise, growing up along with all of other characters during and before the time of Birth by Sleep. Of course, you won't know all of them because the various age differences between them and possibly you. You had goals and dreams until things started to change. Strange creatures popping up, gossip of strangers from other worlds, Ansem's and his increasingly crazier experiments, then the disappearance of the apprentices and him. Still, the kicker is the arrival of Maleficent and the heartless.

Her power and forces were too great. Unfortunately, Cid wasn't able to get to you in time and you were lost to darkness. While you are in the darkness, you are chosen by a creature from another world. They call themselves Eidolons and they've be waiting for people like you. Now, they dwell in your heart bestowing sleeping powers and a weapon to fight the darkness.

Eidolons & Weapons
Spoiler


The process takes a while, nine years to be precise. Finally, you awaken in surroundings that seem familiar but not quite the same...

This is where it will begin...

IC should be up by the end of the week.

Name: Palom Myssidia
Age: 15
Appearance:
Spoiler

Personality:

Those that have known Palom often describe him has energetic, fun loving, a bit of a slacker, with a penchant of getting into trouble. Often, he spent his time reading of the great adventurers and warriors of ages past. Among them, his favorite were the keyblade masters, those blessed by the heart of the world. Their loyalty, courage, conviction of purpose, became important ideal to Palom. Such tales were an inspiration and a distraction from the nagging of his sister Porom. A bit of a prankster, Palom often finds himself in trouble with authority figures.

Since the fall of his home in Radiant Gardens, the disappearance of his sister and parents and meeting Doom Train, a new edge has appeared in his character; a cold and calculating avenger, which even he is not yet aware of. For now bound to his righteous grudge against Maleficient, and his oath to make sure that she and others like her meet just retribution.

Element: Posion
Eidolon: Doom Train (DT to Palom)
Spoiler


Weapon: Miasma Switch
Description: The Miasma Switch is three foot long baton. It is segmented, like a spine or a train. The segments are brass or rust colored, while the "joints" are obsidian black. On the handle, a lone bar, akin to a rib, acts as a finger guard. At the bottom of the handle, lies a small version of DT's face. The finger guard is brass or rust colored, the handle itself is obsidian, and the DT skull is silver.

So, who's are the fifth member of this sentai?

Now then as is tradition for all BESM campaigns I would like to submit this as the theme song. If you want something a less rock this (Lyrics lower down in the page) might work. ...well, maybe that one's too fast. How about this one (Lyrics in the description).

Okay, maybe that's too italian. How about we avoid words all together and just go with an instrumental piece; like say thisone?

EDIT: Then again, this one's not too bad either.

Maybe this as a battle theme.

SO what do you folks think? Which one do you like, or do you have a suggestion of your own?

As a fan of Tomica Hero Rescue Force, I got to go with My Story by Camino.

Heir Conditioning from Homestuck would be excellent as battle or action montage music.

The ZeXal theme, i feel could fit as the ending theme.


Anima libera's lyric are appropriate but the music doesn't fell Kingdom Heart-y enough.

I'm prone to random bursts of writing and after i saw the video I just couldn't help myself, So i wrote an interactive intro anime cutscene that goes with the song, using making your character seem like the main character, since we're all our main characters in our lives. well here it is

Intro song before lyrics- overview of radiant garden, then camera pans in and begins rushing through the streets, highlighting us as we go about our lives. then zooms into the blue sky, Name of our Rp

Look up at the shining sky- screen is cut diagonally on the top left it shows christopher robin looking towards a group of clouds, on the bottom right you see Bakiri on a hill, a sketching while staring off into the distance.

you've been chasing the passing clouds- 3 quick screens flashing Palom watching a train go by, Allen watching his father make a buisness deal, and the one who's partnered with gilgamesh doing something related to him too, (Ill fill that one up when i know more bout him)

In the flow of time untold feelings are lost- theres complete darkness, our characters are only seen from the waist up, we're in a circle facing he camera and as it pans around our faces it shows a loved one who we had to leave behind.

embracing the heart is proof we're alive- the characters place their hands on their hearts and they begin to glow with their respective element color.
let the flame of life soar: We burst into elemental flames
Now!: it zooms into your character in particular who's looking down, then immediately looks at the camera with a determined face.

In these cycling eras there is one truth, one can know for sure- our characters are fighting off heartless while running forward, each of us using our attacks and jumping around everywhere.

An unwavering precious bond- as we continue fighting the area around our hearts begin to glow

the story of fate: as we finish off the last of the heartless we end up in a pose and our eidolons show up faded in the background watching over us.

the world is connected by vast kindness- our characters walking away from a village, the sunset to their backs, with the silhouettes of the villagers waving at them.

Unlimited dreams and hope is living ones own way- As they're walking they each smile and have an image of each of them doing something in particular shows for a second (Christopher laughing with his shield, baki making an explosion, Alen holding a bag of coins with a smirk, Gilga doing something, Palom stopping some bullies.

Let it take you to your future the camera rushes past them and the village, heading towards the sun, screen fades to black.

Well that's all for the rough draft, it ends at 1:34 which is short and good for most intro's the best part is that since each part of the song has similar lyrics but are still slightly diffrent, I will be trying to make a season 2 and season finally intro's with the rest of the song as the story progresses. Hope every one think's it's ok.

Name: Alenbair
Age: 14
Appearance:
Spoiler

Personality:
He's practical and efficient; always seeking how to make the most out of whatever situation he finds himself. He's not an optimist, but isn't willing to give up easily on a course of action so long as its benefits still out weigh its potential cost. He's not easily angered and can keep his cool in all but the worst situation, often commenting on the events of his life and those around him inorder to provide something akin to an outsiders perspective so that he can better think things through. At times he may seem detached or un interested, and in truth he can be quite bull headed once he's settled on something. he also becomes quite obssessive and boisterous once he finds something he adores.

Element Metal
Eidolon: Yojimbo

Weapon: Gold deposit
Description:This small leather pouch appaers innacous enough at first. However, within it lay a veritable sea of coins belonging to all manner of currency. As Yojimbo's envoy, Alenbair can call forth Yojimbo's great wealth and draw power from it. Wielding riches as a samurai would his blade.

Hello Zeonne. Me and the boys decided to sit down and have a chat about our characters over skype. We managed to make a lot of progress in character development and inter-character relations. Also bat-sh!t crazy happened. Posting here for your enjoyment and enlightenment.

It's a bit lengthy but enjoy.

I'm Xavier, and Rafael is Assurau.

Name: Lexin Bishop
Age: 16
Appearance:



Personality: Lexin is a friendly young man with a knack for making people feel at ease around him. He takes life one step at a time and tends to not plan ahead unless he has to. His greatest weakness is that his desire to achieve his goals can sometimes circumvents his common sense. When it comes to rare weapons or his swordsmanship, his ambition and pride take precedence. Despite his flaws, Lexin has a big heart and is the loyalest of friends, even if he is a bit foolish at times. His demeanor changes greatly in combat situations, though he has yet to see another heartless since his ordeal, so these changes will be new to him as well.

Weapon: Mastermune and Lionclaw
Eidolon: Gilgamesh
Element:Wind

3 (acrobatics) + 2 (Climbing) = 5 + 4 (Intimidation) = 9 + 3 (Artisan) = 12 + 3 (Stealth) = 15 + 2 (Cultural Artw) = 17 + 2 (visual arts) = 19 + 1 (physical sciences) = 20 + 1 (biological sciences) = 21

I believe that's a point in your favor.

You have thirteen combat techniques. My suggestion, get rid of Brutal. I doubt you'll be punching anything if your swordsmen. Which reminds me, Assaru, Palom has one too many Combat techniques as well. Though, you can keep'em if you want, your point cost is a little off.

Then on to your items. Mastermune is correct but Lionclaw, should cost 5 CP. 6 CP for the master attack, 2 for the linked attack. Then, of course, those get halved for them being an item. So...

26 (Combat Technique) + 9 (melee attack) = 35 + 9 (melee defense) = 44 + 6 (Ranged defense) = 50 + 14 (armor) = 64 + 4 (tough) = 68 + 2 (heightened awareness) = 70 + 2 (jumping) = 72 + 4 (special movement) = 76 + 4 (massive damage) = 80 + 8 (item) = 88 + 10 (magic) = 98.

While the cost was almost correct, your math was wrong it should've been 95 with the numbers presented.

Altogether, 130 + 21 + 98 = 249 - 3 = 246. While you say you have a nemesis, there was no mention of her in your background when there really seem like there should be. Then, she has a few options of a surviving the ordeal with Maleficent.

From your background the obvious relation is Allen; you two are in the same age category and both your parents were merchants. This is not mentioning the fact that both of you are the heirs to your corresponding family businesses So you two probably know each other from school or through your parents business dealings; and given your personalities you two could've been good friends.

There's always knowing Bakiri through his weird ass experiments.

Palom my have visited your fathers admire the craftmenship of his weapons, you two share a love for legendary heroes; though his is focused more on the adventures they had, while you are more interested in their legendary weapons.

As for Chris, its unlikely...assuming we weren't neighbors or our parents were old friends. If so that would make Chris that lonely kid that used to follow you around when you were younger, whom you may have babysat once or twice, or that little kid you've known since forever because you live close or our parents hang out often and bring us along; making them develop a brotherly relationship, with him as the "older brother" who keeps an eye on him and makes sure the other kinds don't mess with him and may provide occasional advice or help.

What do you think?

Also Zeone, Toad, if you guys want send me your skype handles and I'll send you guys invites so the whole group can chat.

MY experiments are not weird! ... Mostly... Sometimes... Ok, there are werid ones, but that is not my exclusive forte.

But yeah, Bakiri has(had?) a bit of an infamous reputation. Blowing things up and causing innocent chaos can do that.
