Alright this is an idea for a roleplay that I came up with while sleeping tonight. Guess this is the result when I fall asleep listening to Billy Idol and playing final fantasy. This takes place in final fantasy type world where while they have some very futuristic things they don't have actual cars like we do. Here goes, if enough people are willing to join then I'll turn this into an actual rp.

EPIDEMIC​

Maria was a peaceful planet with beautiful forests, great oceans, and kind people. The people of Maria are a religious people and when each person reaches the age of 13, when they hit puberty they are given a weapon with a blade. They are then taught how to use this weapon so that they may defend themselves and their family. Then twenty years ago in the country of Axisim some strange people came to the planet. They called themselves Lasharians. They were pale, greatly disliked sunlight, and had striking lavender eyes. They were a beautiful people, but they did not eat food as the Marians did, instead they drank blood. When there great secret was revealed people became afraid. Many people tried to kill them, but nothing worked, except for fire, and literally taking off their heads.

The group that had been made of twenty people was reduced to only 6 now. Three women and three men. It was at this time that their biggest secret was revealed. They had the ability to turn Marians into their kind by draining them to a point close to death and then feeding them their blood, but this was not the only way. They carried some sort of contagious virus that eventually produce the same effect as turning. If their bodily fluids, such as spit, blood, etc., made it into your body or stayed on your body without being purged by fire, then your body would begin to change. You would become like the infected, and would be fully turned within a week.

This epidemic took Maria by storm, and now the Marians are an endangered species. There are only 50,000 Marians left, and the majority of that is children. There have been Marian doctors that have managed to avoid the infection and are searching for a cure. They came across a discovery that children seem to be immune to catching the disease. This also holds true for anyone that was fed off of by an infected person when they were a child. They are only able to be turned by being drained and then force fed some of an infected persons blood. Emi Ganstein is one of these doctors.

Her brother Darron Ganstein is a researcher on the disease. He learned that when an infected person is turned a cross is made and their name is written on the cross in their blood. If the cross is burned with their weapon having been stuck in the left side of the cross, or the honor side, by the infected person then even if they have been killed by the Lasharian council, made up of the six original Lasharians, then they will turn back to a Marian and be given a second chance at life. If their weapon is in the right side, or has not been placed in the cross at all then they will die a horrible death.

Darron and Emi, along with a group of refugees are now traveling the planet and burning all the crosses they can find in an attempt to purge the world of this horrible disease. Let us pray, for their sake, that they can accomplish their goal before it is too late.
 
Probably two sides. Infected and Refugees. My friend told me to send it to hollywood to have it made into a movie. I told her she's crazy. I'd want to have it written into a book first so my idea doesn't get botched.
 
I most certainly will. This will be fun. I'm probably going to start making profile layouts. This should be interesting.
 
I'll join. :D I just recently joined, and haven't really RPed with anyone here yet, but my dear friend sweetling flashed this at me during a conversation and I thought it was an awesome story. :D
 
Oh please do. Here's a profile layout. I just made it. I'll warn you both that I've been rping for 4 years, just not on here. So I'm called a grammar Nazi. I try not to be too bad, but I expect adults to have adult levels of grammar and spelling, and I LOVE detail, if you couldn't tell by the plot line. You two should both be fine though. I understand on a lot of errors so please don't let me scare you off.

It's alright, love. I can be pretty grammatical and I usually only have problems with the use of colons and semi-colons. Otherwise, I'm good. :D

I shall make thee a bio as soon as possible! Meaning I'll have it done in half an hour.
 
Name~ Emi Ganstein
Age~ 21
Race~ Refugee/Marian
Alliance~ Refugees
Weapon~ Twin Short Swords
Occupation~ Doctor
Personality~ Emi is a kind hearted woman that has devoted her life to protecting her fellow Marians. She has put herself at risk on multiple occasions, trying to find a cure for the Epidemic. She is very close to he brother, and to her dear friend, Sepia.
Bio~ Emi and her brother, Darron, were always close as children. They always looked out for eachother, and Darron never let anyone hurt her. They were very careful around infected people, and no one ever fed off of Emi. She had always been an intelligent child so when a refugee doctor offered to teach her, she eagerly excepted. Emi was the doctor that discovered the immunity of children and those who were fed off of before they hit puberty.

Emi has been whole heartedly putting herself at risk for infection in an attempt to find a cure. She has yet to catch the epidemic, but she is very careful. If she gets bodily fluid of an infected person, whether fully turned or going through the transformation, she not only washes her hands with water but also with fire, by rubbing her hands in a flame for 10 seconds and then wrapping them tightly to prevent burns and blistering. She is very empatheric and she takes care of those going through the transformation until they are fully turned. She is seeking out every Cross of Eternity, as they have been dubbed, so that she can purge this infection from Maria, and give others a second chance.



Name~ Darron Ganstein
Age~ 23
Race~ Refugee/Marian
Alliance~ Refugees
Weapon~ Butterfly blades
Occupation~ Researcher on the Lasharian's and their disease
Personality~ He is a very protective person, and is even more so over his little sister. He feels most useful if he's helping or protecting his sister. He is a very observant person, and can be very analytical if the need should arise.
Bio~ He has been protecting Emi since she was 7 years old. Their parents caught the epidemic, and their father tried to feed off of Emi, but Darron took her place. This was before Emi disovered that children who have been fed off of before puberty become immune to the infectious disease, though they can be 'forcefully' turned. This gave Darron immunity to catching the disease in any normal way.

He wishes that he would have let their father feed from Emi, so that she would have the immunity instead of him. She constantly puts herself in danger as she tries to helpthe infected people. He does everything he can to protect his sister and the other refugees. He is not above betraying the refugees if it will protect Emi.



Name~ Sepia Glansdale
Age~ 18
Race~ Refugee/Marian
Alliance~ Refugees
Weapon~ Rapier
Occupation~ Emi's Personal Gaurd
Personality~ Sepia is a very straightforward person, and doesn't like to beat around the bush. She's the type of woman that out right admits there's a problem the moment she notices it so that it can be addressed right away. She can be very kind to the ones that she cares for though.
Bio~ Sepia is Emi's personal gaurd. Sepia feels forever grateful to Emi for the dangerous things that she endures in her attempt to find a cure for this epidemic. She has the utmost respect for Emi and has no problem with putting herself in danger to protect the one woman that might be able to save what few Marians are left.

She also admires Darron for what he does to get the research that helps his sister make her discoveries. She is very skilled with a rapier, and has immunity to the regular contraction of the disease because she had been fed off of at age 8. She is very capable of protecting herself and others.



Name~ Asher Moningdale
Age~ 259
Race~ Infected/Lasharian
Alliance~ Infected
Weapon~ Broadsword
Occupation~ Lasharian Council Member
Personality~ She is a very serious woman, and often comes off as cold-hearted and uncaring. She doesn't like Emi one bit, because of how close Emi really is to finding a cure for the Edpidemic, and ruining Asher's little paradise. She enjoys having power over the infected people.
Bio~ Asher was born on Lashar, a planet full of her kind of people. There was a great war though that forced Asher and 19 of her fellow Lasharians from the planet. They searched for a suitable place to come live after losing their home and found the planet of Maria. They were welcomed as beautiful, mysterious strangers, at first, until the people found out about their secret. She watched as one friend after another was either beheaded or burned alive.

She knew that it would be just a matter of time before people started changing and she was right. Once they started to change they were begging for someone to help them, and she and her five friends were right there when they were needed. They immediately rose to power and haven't faced any serious threats on it for the 25 years that they've had it. That is, until now. A certain young doctor has stopped at nothing to try and find a cure for this epidemic, and she's so very close, without even knowing it.

Asher feels threatened by Emi's progress, and hates Emi for posing this threat to her own personal paradise. Asher can't stand the idea of someone like Emi being able to do that. She has been plotting and planning in an attempt to give the infection to Emi, but it's not as easy as one might think with the guard that Emi has.
