I'm getting more excited about this than my own story :P. So how exactly is this gunna work? We take turns and follow after the person who started writing?
Escape is a two-syllable word that grants temporary peace in the present to a future victim.

Name: Long
Age: 21
Outlooks:
Background story: He leave alone on a snowy mountain, has no memory about his past and has no idea what does the future hold for him.
On his 18 birthday, when he was out hunting for dinner, Long found out he has the ability to teleport in a very annoying way. He vanish and reappear 4000 feet about his house. when he was about to hit the ground, Long heard a small pop sound in his ear and then found himself lying on the floor of the house, still shiver from the cold.
That had continued for one more year. He has no control over the new found power. Every time he has an extreme emotion like fear or angry, he teleport to some where else but never too far from his house (if you don't count the high). Sometime, he just suddenly teleport even though he doesn't feel anything (rarely). Those experiences sometime injured him since Long didn't teleport in the right place.
One night, when Long was chopping down a tree, he found a golden ring and wore it on. Ever since then, he don't teleport anymore.
Until now....
Character: Very smart. Always pay sometime to think before making a decision.
Know associations: no known association in the present. His past is still unclear.
Special abilities: Teleport (appeared to be suppressed by the ring Long wore).

Rules Wrote:Name: Drahcir Lumiras
Age: 15
Appearance:
[Image: 0ac7671.png]
Background story: Born on Tiren, a neighbouring planet, and traveled here at age 3 with parents, who were emissaries from Tiren. Parents have since died, and Drahcir is acting as a representative of Tiren in their place.
Character: Impulsive, reckless to the point of stupidity, is usually calm but when he explodes, he explodes hard. A surefire trigger for explosion is when he witnesses any injustice at all. Idealist, altruist.
Known associations: A lot of people from Tiren, Phil, both Alecs, Zabobula, Sonidow, Adam, Freeza, Magnamancy, 1477
Special abilities: Master swordsman, great pilot, limited manipulation of fire and pressure. In battle, he usually targets the "boss" character.
And a less major character who basically serves as Drahcir's wingmate:
Name: Mailliw Lumiras
Age: 10
Appearance:
[Image: f006277.png]
Background story: Born on Earth when Drahcir was at age 5.
Character: Calm, collected, idealist, altruist.
Know associations: Drahcir (obviously), (insert everyone in Drahcir's list)
Special abilities: Mastery in manipulation of cold and pressure, better-than-average swordsman, great pilot. In battle, he will usually attack hordes of enemies at once. §2: No overpowered chars. No one can beat an army( or even a big group) of soldiers alone.
I suggest changing your age or some skills. From all profiles, the less interesting of all is yours, Drahcir (btw, protip: there aren't any machines for you to pilot).
Also, I like all the profiles so far, I see potential in all. Grats, everybody.
Here's my story, in case people haven't read thinking it was my char's backstory:
The world is passing through a peaceful time after Julian appeared, decades ago. When that happened, fighters from everywhere were summoned to try and take down the evil lord. They all failed, except for 10 notable ones, bringing an end to his reign of terror. They were praised as the world’s heroes, and monuments were built in honor to them. People went back to their normal lives and everything was fine, with no threat to the earth...
50 years after that, strange events started taking place. One day, there was a huge explosion in Julian’s tomb, and investigation showed that his body was missing. Rumors that the he was back were spread around. Strong fighters were murdered, one by one, with their bodies vanishing afterwards. Worried about the situation, the Empire has assembled all warriors in his kingdom in order to discuss matters, while the intelligence tries to figure out what's happening.

@Zab: Are you talking about writing in a predefined order? Well, normally everyone just writes when he feels like it. Of course you sometimes have to wait for a person reacting in special situation, but mainly thats it. The other possibility would be interesting, too, but sometimes you just don't know what to write and for somepeople more might happen( Addtionally it could be that we divide into two groups at some time, I guess. I have joined a forum novel only once )
@Simoneon: Of course you can join. Only thing to complain is that with the dark master Julian and the empire we don't have ancient rome. And I think we don't have factories/cars/etc. either.( + we don't have CUHK )
wow, how many profiles do we already have? eight? Thats gonna be interesting.

So far, I'm the weakest one.

Yup. Just one thing on the side note: imagine you has came up with a long, attractive story which has taken you hours to make all that feces up. After you post, you realized you has been ninja'ed by a post that lead the story in a way which has nothing to do with your story, that will be hilarious (I did, twice).

that's why i would say you only have or am allowed to write.. 7 lines.. is much faster.. and while writing you can check if there is a new post.. easy as that.. i hope at least..
the thing with the order would be bothersome.. cause everyone has to wait for the other one to write.. so if f.e i am inactive and i would be on the row.. everybody would have to wait..
edit: thinking about it.. if the one on the row does not reply in 2 days or something.. the next one on the list is writing..
[sig placeholder until my new sig is finished]
should totally allow people to be all trolley on their birthday

Can we just wait for the guy who's having a scene for 3 days, if he doesn't post after that, we just made sh*t thing up for him?

@phil: But if two are inactive its four days. And that already is very annoying. I can't wait four days
About the seven lines limit... I'm not sure if I can manage to write less every time
Another possibility would be that if you write a very long part just write half of it, post it and edit it afterwards, maybe with a note "will be edited soon". Or you please the ninja to change his post a bit.
Only problem is that you then have to think : Should I wait with writing? Or should I post and hope that he isn't writing something that doesn't fit. Again a PM would be a possibility. But thats getting so complex...
So to put it short and simple, idk.

So how about just make up some schedule? Like: Phil -> Hacker -> Reaper -> No one -> Simoneon -> ..... and give the one who have turn 3 days or so to write. If he don't, the next guy will.
And yay, I finish reading the second Jumper book. Now I really feel luck for choosing that ability
Hope I'll finish Lord of The Ring soon. I need something evil for the ring.

I thought that is what we were talking about. And with this two inactives would mean nearly a week to wait.( You will have to wait nearly a week anyway if we have that schedule). And well, it might be your turn exactly when you have nothing to write. And then you have to wait some days again.
So I don't really like that idea, but if most of you do I still could get used to it.
