Hey! Unfortunately, a withdrawal from one of our writers has resulted in an opening within our ranks. Male Venus is open.

Venus: Head of the Empress's Covert Operations Unit, the Venusians possess the ability to manipulate emotions, including the ability to charm others, and darkness.

Flower

Still looking for male Venus. Just make sure to send any sheet to me as Emjay is taking a break. ^_^ Also, if you have any questions, please ask. I'm super nice. And remember, although this game is inspired by Sailor Moon and borrows from its concept/theme, it is not Sailor Moon. It's more superheroes saving the universe.

-pops in-

Hey! Sooo we're still here and filled with wonderful writers. Recently, I noticed that we could use a few more friendly faces to our group. People want connections! Friends, lovers, enemies! The whole nine yards. -cough- Umm but anyways I thought of a fun idea that basically permits people to write a shifter. I think it's pretty badass but I might be biased. I tend to get super involved in group games.

Introducing...


Celestial Companions


A celestial companion is a being that is the physical manifestation of a guardian's inner self that takes the form of an animal, native to their respective planet. Celestial companions have human level intelligence and are capable of mental speech with their respective guardian or other companions. While they are bound to their guardian, they are capable of behaving independently of the individual in which they are tied to. Although celestial companions will occasional mimic the appearance and behavior of the creature they resemble, they are not actual animals. True animals are able to distinguish them on sight. Only those chosen as guardian are able to develop a celestial companion. Likewise, when a guardian dies or is stripped of their title, their celestial companion fades away, turning into a dust like substance.

Due to extenuating circumstances, celestial companions have shown the ability to adapt in order to better aid their guardian. Companions are now in possession of three forms (native, domestic, and human).

Native form
-The only form companions had access to in their old life
-Can transform into this at will without their guardians being in their transformed state. Not often used though due to drawing too much attention. Kind of used as an 'oh shit' button.
-This form was a replication of one of their guardian's native creatures
-Capable of mental speech with their guardian/other companions

Domestic form
-Better choice for blending in on earth
-Limited to a domestic cat or dog
-Capable of mental speech with their guardian/other companions
-No access to native form's skills

Human form
-Loses access to mental communication
-Has a tendency to still display animalistic tendencies

Things to Know

-Companions can be NPCed. Writers can write their own companions.
-Companions can be PCed. Writers can permit someone else to write their companions. It is up to the writer if they will permit the person to use their current creation as inspiration or create a completely new character.

-It takes a conscious effort to change forms. They will maintain whatever form they possess in their sleep unless something prompts them to do otherwise.
-All celestial companions have a piece of jewelry that grants them the ability to shift into domestic and human form. If they lose this item, they will be forced to remain in whatever form they are currently holding.

So there it is! If you're interested, please post here or message me! Oh! Just because you're with a guardian doesn't mean you need to be romantic with them. Their relationship is completely up to you. Your guardian can be like a cat, distant but loyal, or they can be like a dog with the best friend vibe.

I hope this garners some interest. Don't hesitate to ask questions.


Just in case you didn't read the info, this is not a Marvel game. >.> Sorry if the title gave you that vibe.

Here's one of the first advertisements of sorts for a writer looking for someone to write their guardian.

Quote from: FlowerName of Guardian Involved:   Claudette | Eliora
Age Preference: No preference
Preferred Face claim?: Open to either a female or male
Reason: Super open! I would love for them to be friends or maybe something more.
Additional info: Not really!

Quote from: Aiden on May 24, 2017, 08:29:33 AMName of Guardian Involved: Ryan "Gunner" Burke
Age Preference: N/A (18-30, in game rules)
Preferred Face claim?: Nope
Reason: Mar's companion has been both wise council and a thorn in his side since they were paired. Highly competitive with one another, the two were practically brothers.
Additional info: If said guardian ends up female, it might throw him off.

Quote from: Kokaine on May 23, 2017, 10:01:23 PM
Name of Guardian Involved:   Aramie Rousseau
Age Preference: Mid to Late 20s
Preferred Face claim?: Must be Female, other than that up to writer
Reason: Looking for something between motherly type and best friend, hopefully with banter and shenanigans.
Additional info: Please note the details about Kallisto in Remy's sheet. I would prefer not to change her cat or beast forms though I am willing to consider particularly compelling ideas. Changes in her personality are totally fine/welcome but I'd like for her role in Mars' life to remain consistent. Totally open to brainstorming!

Quote from: Codexa on May 23, 2017, 09:46:41 PM
Name of Guardian Involved: Margot Tremblay
Age Preference: None
Preferred Face claim?: Open
Reason: Something with tension, maybe a bit hot/cold - Someone to push and test her.
Additional info: Details, and relationship prior to current time, I'd like to work out with the writer.

Quote from: Relikai on May 23, 2017, 09:37:35 PM
For someone to play Reppu the Spitz, would prefer ..


Name of Guardian Involved:   Koisuke Nana
Age Preference: 26-28
Preferred Face claim?:Eric Bana / Nikolaj Coster Waldau / Josh Harnet / Marco Reus
Reason: Close Roommates, perhaps someone to help Nana in her housekeeping.
Additional info: If he behaves like a Spitz, plenty of curiosity! The smells, the sights, perhaps even snuggling onto the inexperienced Nana to give her a shock in the morning!

If interested, please submit a sheet via PM to me and Emjay!







Domestic Form

Human Form

Native

Name: What's your character's names?
Owner: Which Guardian does the companion belong to?
Enchanted Item: Remember this item permits them to change into human form. It must be worn at all times. The item changes into a collar when they switch to domestic form.
Age: How old do they appear in each of their forms?
Eye Color: What's their eye color in each of their forms?
Height: What's their height in each of their forms?
Personality: How do they act around their guardian, other guardians, or companions? Please list five words and have a description for each one.
How were they in the past life? Describe how your character would have behaved in their previous lives? Have they changed or are they still the same?
Additional Information: Include anything extra that you couldn't list above!





Let me know if you need help with anything or if you have questions. In addition to this, Male Venus, Male Mercury, and Male Pluto guardian positions are open.

Flower

I've added a few ads for people looking for folks to write their celestial companion (think shifter). Please take a look and submit a sheet if interested in writing one of them!

Cerevan

Well I, for one, am interested. Tell me more you saucy lady you.

Flower

-tosses confetti-

Oh yay! I was hoping someone would find my random idea interesting. Umm it's pretty much all there. I would think of them as shifters. I had people create those little ads so interested folk what guardians are open to having their companion written. I want one for my guy but I haven't got around to writing it yet. #lazyflower

I think it's a great way to step into the game. Your character doesn't have to be plotted romantically with the guardian. It's completely up to you and if the characters, you know, like each other. Their main purpose is to defend the earth.

Cerevan

Mmm, you know I'm all about badass murdering Earth Princes. What does he look for in a companion? :o Or rather, what're you looking for, for him, in a companion?

Flower

I would like to stay true to my original premise. Just basically an noble, slightly snobbish dork. xD The rest is up to you. I mean, if you decide to write Styx. That's his name. Isn't he cute?


Cerevan

Sold! Omg he's adorable. I'll PM you about the details. Now just gotta drag more people into this... >:)

Flower

Again, the three open guardian spots are all male! Those three are male Pluto, male Mercury, and male Venus. I would seriously love to see applications. Here's their little blurbs.

- Pluto: The Plutos are tasked with what could be called the Galaxy's most important important job, the security of the Time-Space Door. They hold the key to the door that not only opens to the Milky Way but also to other planes. Their post is a lonely one as they are stationed at the Time-Space door and cannot leave their position unless expressly allowed to do so by the Empress. They possess the ability to manipulate time, space, and the underworld.


- Mercury: The Empress's Lead War Strategists, the Mercuries possess the ability to manipulate earth (i.e. rock, other sediment, metal).


- Venus: Head of the Empress's Covert Operations Unit, the Venusians possess the ability to manipulate emotions, including the ability to charm others, and darkness.



In addition, there are the shifters!

Flower

I just wanted to post an example of a shifter sheet! This is the marvelous one Cerevan made.







Domestic Form

Human Form

Native

Name: Styx | Katsumi "Katsu" Saito
Age: 5 Months in Domestic | 25 in Human | 8 in Native
Eye Color: Blue in Domestic | Brown in Human & Native
Height: 25" in Domestic | 5'10" in Human | 6'0" at withers in Native

Personality: Styx does not come off as a particularly worthy companion. Even putting aside his innate clumsiness, one's left to contend with his curiosity, laziness, and general tendency toward melodrama. Oh, and the fact that he's easily frightened. Redeeming features? Well, he's friendly and rather enthusiastic about most things. More importantly, he can put up with nine kinds of temperamental bullshit without it phasing him. (Absolutely necessary when dealing with Guardians, especially his own.) People skim the surface of his personality and he does very little to push back against their assumptions. Tends to play the part of plucky comic relief around...well, everyone. May have hidden depths—it's a silently acknowledged fact that he'd take a bullet for his Prince but wouldn't take on a cockroach for him—but if so, Styx seems fine with them staying hidden.

How were they in the past life? Much the same as he is now. But, maybe, a little more. More willing to display his devotion to the Prince, more willing to charge into battle, more willing to serve as a voice of reason... More willing to admit that there were things in life he wanted that were destined never be his as a companion. Styx doesn't like to think about the past. It's depressing.

Additional Information: Will eat anything / constantly hungry. Learning "to human" convincingly. Wants someone to cut the crusts off his sandwiches.

We are currently completing the 'oh wow we're guardians' scene. At this point, all scenes have taken place in the history thread and the actually present day has just opened.

Flower

Also, I added an advertisement for my second character, Claudette. However, I would rather if other positions were filled first since Cerekins has agreed to write my first character's companion.

Oh my god! that's my favorite Live Action from my favorite Anime!

Kimi ni Todoke! I knew I recognized him! Kazehaya-kun!!!



Flower

If anyone has questions, whether about guardians or companions, please ask. I'm super nice. I swear it.

Emjay
