Ready Ranger One!
Year: 2020
Location: New Corinth, USA
Synopsis: With the Power Rangers a distant after the eradication of the Venjix virus, civilization and humanity began to lick its wound and rebuild itself at a steadfast rate. Cities were built from the ground, schools and colleges proceeded to educate the youth, and peace fell over the entire Earth. With the legend of the ranger team that saved the world in the past, there was a void left in the hearts of a specific engineering group that longed to bring back that the protective aura that could only be filled by the group of heroes. With no evil to be conquered for the foreseeable future, the video game company known as GENESIS had the idea of creating a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game that would put an individual in the boots of a Power Ranger, allowing the player to join a team and "save the world." The project was dubbed "Arcadia," a nod to Greek terminology while also acknowledging the word "arcade." The reaction to the news of the video game launch was met with applause, but GENESIS didn't account for the virtual reality world to crossover into our own world.
Somehow, in attempting to utilize the morphing grid for the purposes of the game, the intergalactic villains that were supposed to remain an in-game threat managed to spill over into our own world. Embarrassed by their mistakes, GENESIS has tried to cover up the error, but the threat looms too large and too powerful for ordinary human hands. The fear was that somehow a mole within the company synchronized a remnant of the Venjix virus to Project Arcadia, which allowed the threat to sprout into the world. With no where else to turn, GENESIS reached back in to the morphing grid, extracting as many "Beta Spheres" as possible (because what was a video game without a few testers?). Fortunately, they were able to get their hands on a few of them; unfortunately, many of them have scattered across the city and into the hands of un-expecting owners. Whether they knew it or not, a new game was about to be played... a game that didn't necessarily have an extra life. Once that Beta Sphere is clicked, whoever is the owner of it will be hearing... Ready Ranger One!
Ranger Roles: A group of diverse individuals who, one day, randomly found a Beta Sphere and had their lives changed forever. It will take some time for them to actually form a functioning team, but they will get there eventually. There is no "leader" per se; each of them balance each other out and will have an opportunity to lead.

GENESIS - The gaming company responsible for Project Arcadia. Many believe that the intentions of the company were good in regards to creating an experience that would allow anyone (young or old) to live out the dream of being a Power Ranger. However, a bit of mishandling and perhaps corruption within the company has led to the manifestation of a legitimate intergalactic threat into our world. While they try to pick up the pieces, many are wondering what exactly is going on at GENESIS's headquarters and who exactly is to blame for this terrible occurrence.
Dark Matter - An intergalactic threat from within Project Arcadia, Dark Matter has now managed to spill over into our world with a similar mindset: wipe away the energy from this planet before moving on to the next one with a similar goal. They are led by a mysteriously cloaked humanoid alien, but have several generals that are capable of doing the dirty work for Dark Matter. More times than not, their grunts are doing most of the dirty work, but when things get a little interesting, a superior power will emerge to face tougher, more challenging opponents (players in this case).
Character Sheet:
Code:
[b]Name:[/b] First and Last Name
[b]Age:[/b] 20 to 23
[b]Ranger Designation:[/b] List your preference for ranger color, but also provide an alternative option. Note that you may get a color you didn't list!
[b]Appearance:[/b] A picture of your character. No cartoons or anime, please. If you'd like to provide a description in addition to the picture, that's fine.
[b]Personality:[/b] Strengths, weaknesses, quirks, etc. Let us know who your character is.
[b]History:[/b] Doesn't have to be a full story, but let us know what your character's past is like. What are they doing now? You don't have to mention anything about the Venjix virus; just treat the history like a regular one, please.
Rules: Make sure you read them!
1. Roles are not first come, first serve. I think everyone knows that by now, right?
2. No overpowered, godmodding characters please. I will keep a watchful eye out for this one.
3. I'm looking for diverse characters (in physical appearance and personalities). Please make your characters interesting!
4. Activity is a must! I'd like for this to be a successful RP.
5. I may allow people to play multiple rangers (maximum of two), but I want to see if there will be interest from a variety of people. Aside from that, feel free to run side characters by me.
6. The Rangers initially won't be working as a team (crazy right?). The "original six" will get their powers on their own and may work in partners for a little while before coming together as a team. Gold and Silver will serve, initially, as rivals hired by GENESIS.
7. The other four Ranger roles are not available right now. Period.
8. Let's make this a good one! Any questions, just ask me.
