The Day That Never Comes

[Bee]

Okay, a little game that's been mulling around in my head for a while.

Basically, a Starcraft RP, using a blend of stuff from the old games, and the stuff slated for Starcraft II.

Don't know what Starcraft is, but want to play? Look the game up. The internet WAS created for the transfer of information.

******

The year is 2675. The Protoss have been in relative peace on their new planet Shakuras. The Terrans have been slowly rebuilding their lives after the Great Brood War, and the Zerg have been too quiet for everyone's taste.

All of this changed, with the discovery of a new race of beings...

They identified themselves as "Anthros", beings who stood upright and talked and fought like men, but had features that came from various creatures, such as wolves, foxes, and dragons. The most startling part of this, was their abilities.

While the Protoss and some Terrans could tap into psionic powers, these Anthros could do much, much more.

Some Anthros could control fire, lightning, ice, all the elements ever seen by man or alien. Even a select few could tap into "Angelic" or "Demonic" powers, sprouting wings on their backs, and controlling powers of Light and Holyness, or of Infinite Darkness.

These Anthros have piqued the interest of all the warring groups, and seem peaceful enough, though, they are ready for a fight, if need be.

While the Terrans rely on Railguns, the Protoss use Psionic Blades, and the Zerg use sheer ferocity, these Anthros weild weaponry centuries, even millenia old. Their warships reek of technology, aiding their travel through the stars, but, high tech weaponry seems to be shunned by them.

The Protoss seem interested in learning all they can of this strange new race, and the Terrans seem to be interested in new allies. The Zerg, however, are Hellbent on assimilating these new beings into The Swarm.

Pick a side, choose wisely. For every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

[PsionicMaster]

This looks pretty fun. I never thought a Starcraft RP would come up here, even with the major variety. By the way... BATTLESHIP OPERATIONAL! Prepare to board!

Name: Plexiun Shin'tul

Age: 18

Race: Anthro

Gender: Male

SubSpecies: Nether Dragon

Rank: Senior Apprentice

Occupation: Warlock

Description: Because of his nether heritage (Blizzard games for the win) his skin is pitch black, and he glows blue. He is mostly a regular dragon Anthro except for that, with a 7 1/2" wingspan. He stands at 6' 2". He usually wears tight-fitting leather armor.

Weapon: He carries an ornate staff, an aquamarine tear-shaped crystal on one point, and a fancy blade on the other.

Special Abilities:
Shadowbolt: Shoots a bolt of shadow out of his hand, slightly obscuring vision and mobility.

Darkness Walk: Blends into the shadows. Only works if there ARE shadows.

Ethereal Cloak: Makes a sweep of his arm, nether energy trailing after it, and it can suck small things (About throwing dagger size) into a void temporarily, reappearing roughly 3 seconds after in a place between 2 and 3 feet away, with their original momentum. This, however, takes quite a bit of energy.

Sexual Orientation: Straight.

Other: Is slightly ethereal, so is harder to notice.

Edit: I forgot to say what he wears! Duhrr!

[Bee]

Welcome aboard. And, yeah. I'm slightly suprised that this is the first SC RP to grace this board(that I know of).

Here's my men.

Name: Brandon "Bravo"

Age: 18

Race: Anthros

Subspecies: Southern Timber Wolf

Occupation: Polearm Master

Rank: First Seargent

Description: 6'6", muscular build, with smokey grey fur, black eyes, and shoulder length black hair. Wears an Olive Green trenchcoat, Grey Pants, and an Olive Green wide brimmed hat. Wears black leather boots, and a thick black leather belt, along with a black collar around his neck, with a silver buckle.

Weapon: a Scythe, with a long wooden handle, and two grips about halfway down it. At the base, it has a cleaver-like blade, and at the top, it has an iron Wolf Head, from which the two blades of the scythe sprout from. The blades are black, with a silver strip where it's sharpened. Chains come from the underside of the back blade, and the back of the bottom blade, allowing him to either strap it to his back, or to swing the weapon around in combat.

Special Abilities:

Firestorm: can summon a small firestorm, to take out a group of enemies. It's a double edged sword, though, as it can hurt friendlies as well.

Afterburn: the blades of his scythe catch fire, and it grants him enhanced speed, wielding the large polearm like a much smaller and lighter weapon. It can easily be stopped by water, though.

Dark Divide: he can summon a cloud of darkness over him and his friends or troops, allowing them to move easily without being seen.

Orientation: Straight.

Other: potential Dark Energy source. In other words, he might be able to tap into Demonic Powers with enough training.


******

Name: Diesel

Age: 29

Race: Anthros

Subspecies: Artic Wolf

Occupation: Blademaster

Rank: General

Description:

http://Strype.deviantart.com/art/Tempest...n-36686324

Weapon: Long Sword

http://budk.com/product.asp_Q_pn_E_43+BK1382

Special Abilities:

Twighlight Of Musphelheim: a trio of slowly rotating etheral 6s revolve around the feet of him and his men, reducing the severity of the enemy's attack. This is a severe power drain, though, so he can't keep it going for much longer than 10 minutes.

Holy Edge: his weapon glows white, allowing it to slice through pretty much anything. Anything guarded by Holy Energy's nullify this attack, though.

Enhanced Strength: capable of lifting object of several tons with ease. Passive.

Orientation: Bi

Other: Accomplished in "Angelic" powers. Mated to Sable.

******

Name: Sable

Age: 23

Race: Anthros

Weapon: Warhammer

http://www.knivmakeren.com/gallery/sold/Dcp_0200.jpg

Special Powers:

Thunderstrike: Summons a nova-like aura of electrical energy, which temporarily disrupts any electrical device. A powerdrain, though, she can only do this a few times without proper rest.

Fist Of Poseidon: spell varies. Can be anywear from a torrential thunderstorm, to a full-force Hurricane. Single use only, due to the immense energy required to channel it.

"Love Tap": with this ability, she can heal friendly units, by simply touching them. The severity of the injury alters the amount of energy required to heal it, though.

Orientation: Anything goes.

Other: Mated to Diesel, although, this doesn't stop her.

(Sable: what? Girls gotta have fun, too, you know!)

Okay, I'll see who else puts in, before we start.

Oh, one more thing.

===== HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER !! =====

Name: Flynn Rausch

Age: 25

Race: Anthro

Gender: Male

SubSpecies: Canis lupus lycaon (Eastern wolf)

Rank: Soldier

Occupation: Rangemaster/Technologist (enhancement R&&D)

Description: at 5'6", Flynn doesn't stand out in a crowd. His blue fur is always well-groomed, and he always has an easy smile on his muzzle. Though he's pretty social, he spends a lot of time in his workshop, tinkering and inventing new technology for the anthros or for trade with other races. Behind his square rimmed glasses, his gold eyes sparkle with intelligence and intuition.

Weapon: A bowgun. Flynn has fitted it with a small scale replication device he's invented that can replicate approximately a thousand bolts before needing to be recharged. He wears a special SmartEye that automatically calculates bolt trajectory before firing, ensuring better-than-normal accuracy.

Special Abilities: - heightened senses and agility. Like most anthros, Flynn can see and hear better than any non-anthro, and is also more agile than the average non-anthro.

- electricity manipulation. By tapping into the ambient static energy in the air, Flynn can store it in his body and use it offensively (ie. as electricity arcing between him and a target or a hurled ball of energy), or defensively (ie. charging himself with enough static energy that it actually deflects or intercepts incoming biological or metallic attacks). His ability has limits, however. It does take time to naturally accumulate enough charge to do anything with and, due to the fickle nature of the element, it can be difficult to aim.

Sexual Orientation: Gay

Other: Flynn was nearly killed in an accident at his lab. An experiment with a serum meant to protect from radiation poisoning ended up heavily irradiating him. He stumbled out of his lab, fur and flesh melting, and collapsed. And that was when he found out that his best friend and lover was more than just a healer...

===== HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER !! =====

Name: Sydney Croft

Age: 22

Race: Anthro

Gender: Male

SubSpecies: Panthera tigris altaica (Siberian tiger)

Rank: Sergeant

Occupation: Shaman

Description: At a hulking 6'7" and 235 lbs, Syd towers above most everyone else. His blue fur makes him stand out even more than his impressive physique already does, but he is usually a very calm, friendly fur.

Weapon: He eschews the use of weapons and prefers to use his body as a weapon.

Special Abilities: - heightened senses and agility. Like most anthros, Syd can see and hear better than any non-anthro, and is also more agile than the average non-anthro.

- Paw of Light. Syd can heal even severe wounds by laying his paws on a wounded individual. He absorbs ambient energy, transforming it within him into life energy, and pours it into the victim. The healing process is sped up so fast that one can actually see the wounds close before their eyes.

- Spirit of Redemption. Faced with the task of multiple or very badly injured individuals, Syd can unleash his hidden angelic powers. Glowing wings burst from his upper back, and soothing golden light emanates from him. In this form, he is invincible to all but the most dark and evil energies. His mere presence speeds the healing of wounds and the touch of his paws can all but restore life. While in this form, his own divine energy fuels it, able to hold it indefinitely. However, upon reversion to his normal form, he experiences exhaustion proportionate to the amount of time he was in his angel form. Depending on the amount of time spent as an angel, he can require up to several consecutive days of rest.

Sexual Orientation: Gay

Other: Upon seeing Flynn's rapidly deteriorating condition, Syd placed his paws on the withering body, quickly channelling life energy into him to replace the damaged and heavily irradiated tissue. Realizing that his powers wouldn't be enough to save his love, he began to weep. Suddenly, a calm came over him and he stood up and closed his eyes. Golden light began to pour from him, washing over Flynn's crumpled form. Giant golden wings sprang from his shoulders and he knelt over the wolf, covering him with their feathery warmth. As soon as it had begun, Syd was again a tiger, and Flynn was a healed wolf - though naked and extremely startled.

Okay, I'll hold this open for a bit, before we officially start, so that more people can join, if they feel so inclined.

[Bee]

Okay, the game is officially on. Anyone who wishes to join, don't hesitate to ask.

IC:

Sept. 24, 2675

1939 hours

First Seargent "Bravo" brought his heavy scythe over his head, and brought it down hard, splitting the practice dummy open like a melon. The fire that enveloped his blade quickly lept onto the ruined wooden dummy, setting it afire. Brandon leaned back on his weapon, surveying the damage.

"Not bad." A gravelly voice said behind him, "but, you need to stop torching the dummies."

Brandon turned and looked at Diesel, with a slight grin, "sorry, sir. Couldn't help it. Fire's just....fun"

Diesel clicked his tongue, and stared intently into the flames.

"Our days are numbered, Bravo. The Protoss have weapons and technology far superior to our own. We still rely on bladed weaponry for our frontline force, while the Terrans have machines doing the bulk of their work. We still only hold an advantage over the Zerg, in that we have powers they can only dream of."

Brandon put the fire out, and looked at his superior, "so, what? We're just going to abandon centuries of history, to keep up with people we don't even know?"

Diesel shrugged, "all I know, is that there's a war brewing in our space, and we need to either shit or get off the pot."

[Ferro Cordis]

Hearing the conversation Frank throws 3 of his knives at a dummy's gut then throws his staff at its head the dark energy side hits the dummy corrupting it. he was warning a fedora and a toothpick was hanging out of his muzzle

Kyu also training he was throwing sharp rocks shaped like bullets at a target hitting dead center every time "Really? Where at war? I thought we where training for no reason at all." Laughs at himself

Mess Hall

Setus and Ralph where siting at the same table talking to each other Setus starts "So... you became a General now, huh Ralph?" Ralph nodded through his shades and added "Yes I did Setus." Playing with his guns cheeking if they where loaded or not "But it dosen't seem I'll be going up a rank anytime soon" "Same here Ralph." Setus replied they sat there waiting for something to happen.

[PsionicMaster]

Plexiun was stationed about 3 feet in front of a dummy, as he used a Shadowbolt on a dummy, quickly leaping in and slicing it as soon as the bolt hit. "I'd say you're probably right. Of course, there might be other approaches they'd take, but I'd have to say a war is probably brewing, and if it isn't, you still can't be too cautious."

[senjuro]

Flynn was trying his best to sneak up on Syd as he finished his filing in the infirmary. He was mere centimetres away from grabbing his tail before...

"You know I can hear you, right?" Syd rumbled absently, flicking his tail out of reach.

"Awwrr..." Flynn kicked at the floor. "But I like your tail."

Syd laughed, looking over his shoulder. "So I've noticed. Anyway, stick to sharpshooting. Stealth isn't exactly your thing. I could hear you giggling halfway across the room."

The blue wolf chuckled. "I was thinking of the look on your face that time I actually did get your tail. You nearly hit the ceiling."

Syd laughed as he finished his filing, closing down he holographic display. "Well, now that we're done, we should probably hit one of the holographic training arenas. It's been a while since we've actually beat on something that moves."

Flynn winked. "Sounds like a plan. Let's go!" He reached out for Syd's tail again, mrrfing disappointedly as the big cat flicked it just out of reach again.
