The world is not what it seems. It never has been. For eons alien entities have lived among us, preying on the weak, feeding off of our human emotions, driving themselves to be stronger, while expanding the host's own consciousness. The Obsequious Zenith.

To: ExodyusHello. I would like to reserve a spot in your RP, but before I make a character would you mind explaining the plot a bit more to me? I understand the history, it's the present that has me a bit muddled.
I also have some questions for you if you don't mind my pestering:
What kind of characters are you looking for? When under the shards' influence does the victim keep their persona, do they become slightly warped, or do they become mindless beings? What sort of symbiotic relationship occurs when the shard implants on a person? Are they granted certain abilites? Does anything change physically? Can you explain the Guild a bit more? In the skelly, how are you ranking threat levels?Hope I'm not bothering you too much, just like as much detail as I can before joining anything. Thanks for your time.
In truth, it's a port from a site to this one, to run an alternate universe or alternate plot the one currently in play with others. I wanted to see really how the boards were created on this site, and how all of the RPs worked, but there's so many people to so few actually good stories and writers alike.
For the sake of not explaining everything, let's say that the simple present plot is character development and calling. The shard is more like a symbiote that is parasitic in nature, inside of you and controlling your every action -- should it so choose (you so choose).
It can warp your mind if you allow it. It can break an already broken mind. It can strength and bolster something that is already confident, making you feel invincible. Imagine it's a super-drug of the mind, based around something that's living inside you -- to give you the potential to grow stronger with each use.
There's a lot more shown and explained on our site, but the gist of it is growth and development. There's an evil on the horizon, but what is it? Is it you? Me? Something else? Subjecting yourself might be the only way to defeat it -- or the only way to give in. How will we know? ;)
-----
What kind of characters are you looking for?
-- Any you'd like to make. Preferably human, or humanoid.
When under the shards' influence does the victim keep their persona, do they become slightly warped, or do they become mindless beings? What sort of symbiotic relationship occurs when the shard implants on a person?
-- As I said before, persona is whatever you decide to develop. I never tell anyone how to play who they are or what they want to play. The relationship you build can be horrible for the host or good, all depending on how you write it.
Are they granted certain abilites?
-- The ability of Psionics.
Does anything change physically?
-- No.
Can you explain the Guild a bit more?
-- Preferably not, lol. The Guild is simply another name for God, the gods, a higher power, The Raven's Brand, etc...
In the skelly, how are you ranking threat levels?
-- I don't think I'm going to port the Stats over to this RP, so we'll play it slow.
Frankly, I didn't think anyone would find interest in this or PM me. I just wanted to test the boards out and do a little writing, lol. The concept is original and about 8 years old now, the Zenith, that is.

A Deeper Read into "The Guild"
A question was asked early on, to which I will respond now with a bit of insight into what is meant by 'The Guild'.
Take note that this is all Exodian Lore.
Humanity has always believed in a higher power. From the Norse gods, the Epic of Gilgamesh, the God of Abraham, Buddha, even Ghandi -- while a man, was elevated to a godlike status, or a pedestal above the rest because of his actions and beliefs. So what is it that makes one a god among men? An idol? Something to be worshiped and/or feared?
Before they were known as the Guild, they were the Raven's Brand. A family of immortals, bound by Neutrality between Heaven and Hell. A massive split in the family left some to wander the worlds as Watchers and Ancients, while the other's renamed the Ina Tiamatu ? Terra Whiteman, took to the Celestial Courts to act as a figurehead between Heaven and Hell. The perfection of the Triad, immortal.
The Raven's Brand were those who cast blessings when truly needed out of sacrifice and honesty, modesty and undeserving. Never to the hubris, never to the demanding. Those souls whom they saw fit might have been fitted with a Raven's Wing, a special blessing or mark of their kind, while others made immortal themselves to replenish the ranks of the tribe.
They are the creators of Exodyus. They called the place their own home. They brought those who had been saved here. The Raven's Wing offered refuge to those who had the mark. It was a beautiful place of immaculate blessings. A pristine world. Created by thoughts and actions. Desires would be found anew, created from the very bosom of Exodyus herself. Corruption came with power however, and some things brought to Exodyus should have never been -- scarring the world to never be the same again.
