[My first RP here on AC. I'll be using an uncommon posting format, but it'll help in most cases. It helps me organize my thoughts, and keep each post relevant to a sole topic or category.]
Now accepting profiles. Send them to me in a private message.
1. This is a RP made to give fellow Tales fans the opportunity to create an interesting new story using both canon and original characters. (Yes, original.) Therefore, since the best stories are written well, no actions should be written like *jumps out of a tree*, and it is asked that grammar errors are kept to a minimum. Chat (not the pirate you silly goose) speak is not allowed except in OOC dialogue, and even then it should be kept to a minimum. It is encouraged to have a minimum of five sentences per character post.
2. Each participant can have up to six characters. Just be sure you can keep up and play the characters right. All character profiles must be posted here.
3. If all goes well, this will be a long-term RP. Don’t send character profiles if you won’t be able to participate at all. If you are participating in the RP and must leave for a certain period of time, it is advised that you write an excuse for your character to be temporarily absent from the group of characters he or she is currently with. This way, anyone who wants to continue RPing won’t be stuck with an inactive character.
4. Romance is a good aspect and definitely permitted. However, I must state that this RP is rated PG-13 and nothing explicit should occur. (Not much of a shocker.)
5. Seeing as how some characters are ruder that others, I understand that some swearing can’t be avoided. Just don’t have your characters cussing all the time; that’s just obnoxious.
6. No god-modding or auto-hitting.
6a. If the person that you are hitting agrees with you hitting them, auto-hitting is permissible.
7. Do not post blatant plot spoilers from the games. Vague references are okay, but don't say anything along the lines of "so-and-so died". Although you finished a certain game, that doesn't mean everyone else here has. Don't ruin the surprise!
7a. The above rule is subject to change depending on our RPers and whether or nor they care about spoilers.
7b: *To be updated when the information on the above rule is clear*
8. If needed, the rules can be changed with my approval , or other GMs.
9. In the event that you as an RPer would like a more active or key role in the plot, ask. Seriously. I'm not super strict about this, but please do not back out once you are a GM.
10. As proof that you’ve read all the rules, when you post your character profiles, put "Cheagles live inside tree trunks" somewhere in your post.
You are free to make what you want. This includes towns, dungeons and the like. You may ever be able to customize a continent's name, geographical features, etc.

"So tell me. What is it you are willing to sacrifice for the sake of the world?"
Storyline
"Long ago, the human named Aria embarked on a journey that led her from one world to the next. No one knows what she was searching for. Even fewer know if she ever found it. However, her journey abruptly came to an end when she came to the world of Palestia Miran. The people of this world, unable to use magic or artes, were constantly threatened by the dangers of monsters. Pained that these good people suffered so, Aria sacrificed her own humanity, becoming a spirit who guarded the world. After this was done, Aria's sole companion during her journey, Shimra, found that by creating pacts with Aria, the people would be able to use her energy to use magical artes. And so, with the aid of the ones who formed these pacts, Shimra founded Aria's Order, vowing to protect the people Aria loved so much.
Such is written in the history of Palestia Miran."
It started with one. One moment, a world thrived with life and energy as its people went about their daily business. The next moment, it was simply gone. There was no explosion, no flash of light, no sign to signal an impending demise. The world had simply vanished in the blink of an eye, as if it had never existed in the first place.
As many were completely ignorant of the existence of other worlds, very few people from the other worlds noticed a large celestial body had disappeared. Those who did tried to find the reason for this odd occurrence. A sense of unease came to those who found the answer. It was discovered that each world possessed a world core, a powerful object or material that served as an energy source to keep the planet in existence. Remove it, these truth-seekers realized, and the world would vanish in the same manner the missing world did.
A solution was searched for in order to avoid a fate similar to the fallen world. However, with only a handful of desperate researchers, a solution was not found in time. They could only watch as worlds began to disappear one by one, fearing the worst for the inhabitants of these doomed worlds.
Unbeknownst to the onlookers, however, there were survivors. Warriors from the missing worlds suddenly found themselves in places that differed from those of their worlds. Confused and wary, these warriors began to search for answers. What or who was responsible for this madness? Was there any way to restore their worlds? These questions led them to wander the ground of this unfamiliar place, the world of Palestia Miran…
