Sign-Up: Air Gear: Sky Legend

[Kyuubi Naruto]

*Approved by Mia-MOS Co.*

So, here's Kyuubi Naruto, once again taking a shot an RPG. My last RPG, Dawn of the Dragon, which was going great, only failed due to my lack of activity, which was caused by computer problems. But since its Christmas Break, I've got free time on my hands.

What to do with this free time, you ask? Make an RPG, of course.


Air Gear: Sky Legend

RPG Story:

In ancient times, when Greek City states battle one another for supremacy, their armies built massive altars by piling up their defeated enemies weapons and corspes. The strong were decided by who's altar reached the highest. These altars were called towers of victory, or, Tropeaum. The 8 different levels of the Tropeaum were called roads, which where led by the 8 Kings, whom of which were the strongest subjects following the path the different roads. The 8 Kings come as followed:

Storm King- Master of the Hurricane Road
Wind King- Master of the Wing Road
Flame King- Master of the Flame Road
Thunder King- Master of the Rising Road
Fang King- Master of the Bloody Road
Gem King- Master of the Jade Road
Rumble King- Master of the Over Road
Water King- Master of the Lather Road

It is these 8 different kings who are destined to brave the heights of the Tropeaum, face countless struggles, and ride the waves of victory. When all the 8 kings unite as one, the legendary Sky King, he whom is said to be the most powerful of all warriors, will appear, and ascend to the heavens.

That is the legend of the 8 Kings, and the roads, of ancient Greece. Suprisingly enough, time has changed heavily since then. Although the legend of the 8 Kings still lives on today, it has been altered completely. Nowadays, people use Air Treks(A.K.A ATs), rollerblades that have been modified with a special gear that gives them the ability to reach speeds unimaginable by regular rollerblades. They have multiple uses, professional sports, excersize and getting in shape, uses of transportation, or to just simply have fun. Another one of the popular uses for ATs, although, is battle.

Storm Riders, or people who use ATs for battle, get together and form gangs. These gangs battle others in competitions called Parts Wars, fighting for supremacy just as the warriros of ancient Greece. Thus, the legend of the 8 Kings is reborn. Of the hundreds upon thousands of Storm Rider Teams out there, only a handful of them are able to reach the title as a king of one of the 8 roads. The different kings weild their Regalia, or ATs that possess special abilities and godly powers, along with their tuners, the subjects of the kings whos job is to tend to the Kings' Regalia, to battle for supremacy over all others, in hopes of one day that the legendary Sky King will come forth, and rule over the world of Air Trek.

In a certain town in Japan called Namihara, Air Treks are especially popular. From the youngest of kids to the oldest of non-crippled adults, ATs are used by everyone. Especially in Shinanome High School, where Storm Rider gangs are plentiful. Almost daily, Parts Wars are held, and Namihara is home to some of the most skilled Storm Riders in Japan.

With the word that in 3 months from now, the 1st Annual World Air Trek Tournament will be held in Namihara, the gangs have caused a sudden uproar in excitement. One hitch: All participating Storm Rider Gangs are required to be at least D-Rank. This news being found out, all of the Storm Rider gangs in Namihara, which is now known as "The Warzone," have readied theirselves for the upcoming challenges.

__________________________________________

There's a lot of essentials that need to be understood by all members, so here it is:

Storm Riders and their Teams:

All members of the RPG will be Storm Riders, those who use ATs for battle. Whether you want to be on a Storm Rider team or not is your choice, but you are required to be on a team to compete in the World Air Trek Tournament.

For those who DO want to be on Storm Rider team, then you can talk with other members of the RPG and create your own team for Parts Wars. Each team must consist of at least 3, and at most 7, members. In Parts Wars, not all members of the team are required to battle, but at least 3 of them must compete, and no more than 5 of them are allowed in each war.

Their are multiple different types of Parts Wars, listed below:

Ballon Chase: A ballon is let loose in an alley or somewhat enclosed area. The job of both teams is to catch the ballon before the other team does. They are allowed to do anything to stop them, including attacking them with all of their power. This race requires the ability to wall ride.

Point race: Sort of like a relay race on ATs. The members of the race are all placed at certain points on a course, and tag each other when they reach those points, signaling for their fellow member to continue the race.

Battle Race: Set in tons of different enviorments, this is the most popular of all Parts Wars. In this, the teams are given a certain point they must reach. All of the team members then work together to race and battle the opposing team to reach the point first.

Wall Ride: This is set at a large tower or wall. Only 1 member of each team competes in these Parts Wars. The 2 combatants race up the wall, battling each other while on their way. The first to reach the top of the wall/tower wins for the team.

Pure Battle: These Parts Wars are simply set in large arenas. The point of the Parts War is to battle the other team and defeat all of their members. Once when one team is rendered unable to fight, the battle is over.

Course Battle: This battle can be set in various different areas. Its usually set in the hideout or main course of one of the competing teams. This battle is technically a free battle that happens anywhere in the given area, but still has the same base rules as a Pure Battle.

More battle types will be added later on.

Emblems:

All Storm Rider teams have a sticker with the name of the team and a symbol representing the team on it, called emblems. Other than for show, emblems are also used for claiming territory. When the emblem for a team is found on a place, the area is claimed by the team whos emblem resides there. To challenge another team to a Parts War, another team is required to put their emblem on the other teams emblem, thus, issuing a challenge.

*The following only applise to team leaders* If you want to find a pic for the emblem your team, you can get a picture off the internet or give a description. Its not required to have the name of your team on it, as that would be far too difficult.

All set-ups and specifics for winning these Parts Wars will be explained when they occur in the RPG.

Joining Teams:

To join a Storm Rider team, all you have to do is talk to the leader of the team and ask them to join. Whether they allow you in or not is out of my hands. Note: All talk of joining teams before the RPG starts is done in the Sign-up topic. After the RPG begins, you can also choose to talk it out in the actual RPG.

Note: You are not required to be in a team.

Kings and Roads:

After a certain part in the RPG, and after I've watched the racing habits and skills of certain riders, I will send PMs to those whom I believe have enough skill to take on the role of King of one of the roads.

Asking/begging to be a king of the a road will just assure that you will never get that rank. The dfferent powers of the all of the kings will be told to only those whom I see have enough skill to be king.

When given the title of king, through events in the story, your character will earn a "Regalia." Regalia are ATs that possess extremely powerful, mysterious abilities above those of any other regular AT.

Note: Nobody will be taking the role of Sky King.

Tuners:

Tuners are those people who take care of the Regalia of the Kings. A Tuner can be hired by a king, or anybody can just ask to be the tuner of any King. Tuners, although, are in danger of being attacked by those who seek the power of the Regalia. Also, even though each Regalia is already given a special ability, each Tuner is allowed to add one special ability to the Regalia for the King, as long as it corresponds with the powers of the road/Regalia.

D. Sample Character:

Name: Soji Kanihoto

Age: 17

Sex: Male

Rank: N/A

Traveling Road: Flame Road

Appearance:

Story: Soji Kanihoto was 12 years old when he moved to the town of Namihara. It was the same day that he moved to that town that first saw a person riding Air Treks. That day, unknown to him, would change his life forever. He instantly fell in love with the world of ATs, and over the next 5 years, he worked hard to become more and more skilled in ATs.

When he was 16, he decided that instead of following a road made by somebody else, he was going to travel his own road and drove the idea of creating his own team into his brain. A year from that day, completely on his own, Soji created the team called Blade Dance, and his battle began.

Personality: Soji has two sides to him that contrast in multiple ways. His most outright side is wild. He's somewhat of a daredevil whom enjoy taking on new challenges and loves to be around people whom he trusts. His wild side shows in his battle skills, seeing as he can sometimes be reckless, but always quick on his feet. The most important part of his wild side is his artistic ability. Be it finding loopholes in rules, or shorcuts in races, he thinks in hundreds of different ways.

The other side of Soji is the sweet side. Not afraid to show this side to those whom he trusts, Soji can completely change his attitude. When he rather sees somebody in distress or distrust to him, he tries his best to comfort that person. Knowing that his life has been fairly good, he tries to spread the joy he was blessed with to others. When he deeply cares for someone, it once again shows in his battle techniques. It is when fighting for somebody he cares for when he's at his best.

Team: Blade Dance

Team Position: Leader

Team Rank: F

Regalia + Regalia Abilities: N/A

Emblem: Two double-edged swords cross each other, completely engulfed in flame. Across one of the blades is the word "Blade" and the other, "Dance." With his own touch, Soji has actually created material that shines when light reflects on it.

Good luck in getting it.

EDIT NOTE: THERE WILL NO MORE TEAMS ALLOWED IN THIS RPG. EVEN SO, ANY NEWCOMERS WHO WANT TO JOIN MUST BE IN ONE OF THE CURRENT TEAMS, DUE TO LACK OF MEMBERS.

[KibasStalker]

I'm going to post my character in about five minutes. I'll just edit it in...

I wanted to ask how long did it take you to get your roleplay approved???

Name: Aung Iwasaki (Pronouced: On-ga)

Age: 16 ½

Sex: female

Rank: N/A

Traveling Road: Lather Road

Appearance:

Story: Aung grew up on the Japanese coastline. Her parents were killed in a boating accident when she was 5 1/2, so she was raised by her grandfather and two older brothers. Her grandfather owns a rental business with waterskies, surfboards, and other water mechanics. Aung grew up around confident egotistical guys so she tends to stay away from guys all together. She has learned not to trust them.

Because of her brothers and grandfathers business she came in contact with ATs when she was 9 and was instantly hooked. She actually modified her ATs to be able to ride on water. (Not to be confused with the Lather Regalia.) Her grandfather decided that Aung didn’t have enough “girl” friends for her age and decided to stop homeschooling. He sent her to her mom’s old school, Namihara high school. Now as 16 ½ year old she lives in a prepaid aparment near the school. She receives high scores in school so her grandfather won’t bug her, but spends most of her time modifying her ATs and practicing new tricks.

EDIT:
Recently she ran out of money to pay for her new ATs so she has decided to try out parts wars to improve her ATs. She still is deciding whether to join a team or stay solo. She has also applied for a job at the local AT shop.

EDIT:
Personality: Aung is harsh on new people, for the longest time she has built a wall to protect herself from getting hurt. To her it seems as if everytime she opens the gates to become friends with someone or even a more serious relationship they just used her. Whether it be about ATs or school each time they hurt her, her wall grew stronger and more inpenatrable.

The only time Aung seems at rest and free is when she is using her ATs. ATs are her way out of her small world, into a huge seemingly never-ending world. When Aung rides she is a different person. She moves as if shes in water herself and creates pattern tricks that confuse her oppenant. Though Aung has not competed in any parts wars she is a fierce competitor and strives to be the best.

Grade: Junior

Class: B-2

Team: In the beginning she is alone, but she joins The Gnosis of Sophia shortly into the roleplay.

Team Position: No team at first then becomes a member.

Team Rank: F

Regalia + Regalia Abilities: N/A

[Kyuubi Naruto]

About 3 or so days, and thanks for joining.

[KibasStalker]

Sorry I finished my profile I"m just looking for a picture to go along with it.

[Kyuubi Naruto]

No worries, that always takes time. I can help if you want, I have a knack at finding pictures.

Edit: Heh, I accidentaly said can.

[KibasStalker]

I want a teenage girl(anime of course) with funky clothes like armsocks or a skirt over genes. Do you know what I mean?

Edit: You got a pretty nice picture yourself *cough nosebleed cough* lol

[Kyuubi Naruto]

Ok, let's take this to the PMs. BTW, pretty much all of my character pictures have that effect on women.

Edit: Alright Kiba, approved.

[Luzifer]

Name: Echine Gnoto (Pronounced ek-in noe-toe)

Age:15
Sex: Male

Rank:

Traveling Road: Jade Road

Appearance: http://www.rpgfan.com/pics/phantom-brave/art-002.jpg

Team:Leader, The Gnosis of Sophia

Team Position: Leader

Team Rank: Rank F

Bio: Echine was born somewhere in Thailand on the British Military Base and has been kicked around the world with his parents as his father was transfer from base. However they settled into Namihara from when Echine was 12 to when he was 14. At the age of 14 his father was again transfered but it was agreed that Echine would remain in Japan for the rest of his High School years. Now at sixteen he is entering his senior year.

Echine has been participating in the sport of ATs for far longer than he had been riding them. He acted as a strategist for team of older friends but didn't participate himself, perfering to use his potent analytical skills rather than his less than stellar motor skills. His friends however taught him some of their skills before they all graduated from high school and moved on to their own colleges.

He ended up drifting around a bit for most of his junior year, going through and early-life crisis as he tried to find something to hold his interest. He ended up going days without food and sleeping in the school building due to a disinterest in returning home. He started suffer attacks of weakness and one of these required him being hospitalized for several days. His parents, from somewhere on a base in what was left of Ethopia after the Somalian Invasion, sent him to a psychiatrist who advised him to renew his interest in ATs and the sport. However, Echine no longer had a team... so that meant he had to make one.

Personality: Somewhat cocksure and clever when it comes to the pursuits of the mind, he takes much bemusement from deftly pointing out the flaws in the logic of others. He is technically of a frail constitution but his mind seems to pick up the slack, bursting with boundless energy and vitality.

He perfers conversations with less than three other people, where he can easily keep up with and react to what everyone is saying, tending to find more people than that awkward and speaking a negligible amount. Incredibly nervous when he is out of his element, he finds many social situations difficult and dislikes being the one to start a conversation, however he can deftly respond to many topics of conversation.

Very responsible, he will quickly take responsibility for situations for which he had no part. In fact, Echine is at his most serious and easily frustrated when he feels that someone is depending on whatever it is he's doing, making him prone to snapping at those who distract him.

Regalia + Regalia Abilities:

[Kyuubi Naruto]

Luzifer: Other than the fact that most people dont become seniors until the age of 18, approved. But from your profile, it seems that he's mega-smart, skipped a few grades?lol

[Luzifer]

yeah... I didn't feel it was terribly important so I left it out

[Kyuubi Naruto]

No worries, either way, your still in, welcome to the RPG.

Rank:

Traveling Road: flame road

Appearance:http://www.advancedanime.com/picture...l_ak115624.jpg

Team: none

Team Position: none

Team Rank:

Regalia + Regalia Abilities:

Bio: eliza had been living in namihara and was raised by her grandparents after her parents got crippled during ATS training. Though she was encouraged by her grandparents eliza seemed in comperasation to her parents to have no feel for ATS, often falling and getting hurt during training and battles causing her to be cast out of several teams. Now without she mostly does it for fun though she often function's as a first aider at battles after getting diploma. She can skate decently now but battles are stil not her main strength.

[Kyuubi Naruto]

Nespa: Approved, but remember, there called ATs, not ATS. The singular form is AT, and the plural form is ATs, as in adding an "s". Also.....


Emblems:

All Storm Rider teams have a sticker with the name of the team and a symbol representing the team on it, called emblems. Other than for show, emblems are also used for claiming territory. When the emblem for a team is found on a place, the area is claimed by the team whos emblem resides there. To challenge another team to a Parts War, another team is required to put their emblem on the other teams emblem, thus, issuing a challenge.

*The following only applies to team leaders* If you want to find a pic for the emblem your team, you can get a picture off the internet or give a description. Its not required to have the name of your team on it, as that would be far too difficult.

Everyone, I've added one more thing to the first post. All team leaders, please pay attention to this. Those who are team members or dont have a team, dont mind it. Team leaders, just add an "Emblem" section to your profile.

[Luzifer]

Emblem: There is a hand holding a fruit and it is giving the fruit to another hand which is softly reaching for it. Underneath, on a banner is written the word γνώση (gnosi)

@Hollow Ichigo: You'll just have to wait till more people join the RPG. And if nobody joins, maybe you can just edit and go solo, either works.

[Light Buster]

I'll join if that okay.

[Kyuubi Naruto]

Well, seeing as you "havent seen Soji in 3 years," you might want to wait until the RPG starts and confirm it in character. Sound cool?

[Light Buster]

Yeah, you got the idea in my mind.

[Hollow Ichigo]

@Hectic: lol, although I didnt know my character had a childhood friend called Hayate, I'll let it slide. Btw, I know the point of your vital info, although it took a second to figure out. Anyway, approved.
