"Well, todays the first day for some of you to be joining this RP and it is apparant that you don't quite know...anything about the Blazblue universe so...Fire away with the questions!"
Technology! What type of tech exists since it seems to take place 200 years from now? It helps when trying to figure out stuff like the types of illegal things Rena? can get into, what kinds of weapons can be used, transportation and the like.
Well, technology is now commonly fused with magic into what is called Ars Magus. i.e. If there's some sort of Teleportation technology, it would be called a teleportation Ars. (Just plain magic is called Armagus) Transportation between cities is up to the point where there are common flying transportation vehicals. Weapons can range from anything to a simple sword to sentient marionete-like weapons. The most powerful weapons in the Blazblue universe are called Nox Nyctores but they are very rare and tend to have negative mental affects on their weilders.
Soo... Basically for weapons...
[ x ] Tazer/gun on steroids (check)
[ x ] Blades that ignite into flames (Check...? You said that tech and magic mix. Weapons advance with technology, so...)
[] Giant cleaver + insanity rage (no)
[] Gun that gives wielder an itchy trigger finger that'll eventually become uncontrollable (can't have this either)
Am I on the right track? o.o
Are there any crimes that are unique to this world? So far, the only possible things I have for my trouble maker to get into are street racing, smuggling, possessing illegal arms, vehicle hijacking, and murder. XD And speaking of racing, what do these vehicles look like?
The last weapon could exist as a Nox Nyctores but you'd have to get into the NOL to obtain them. (Like I said, negative mental affects)
The NOL acts as the police force in this world and they are corrupt. Things like possessing illegal arms will definately appear on their radar, even more so than murder! Sadly, the game never shows any examples of vehicals in the story. Some pics show them but they look more like public/product transportations.
Damn, no racing then. I- er, Rena? really wanted to speed around and watch things crash and asplode. Hmm... so this NOL seems to be similar to the Krimzon Guard in Jak 2. What if someone were to try and get in to screw them over or something? Yeah, I know, so many weird questions. Just me tryin' to see what I can do with my chars.
Well...screwing them over may be a particularly hard thing to do. Terumi (BB antagonist) is the captain and wants to make sure Xi-14 goes off without a hitch so security's jacked up! You may get in later but not during the early stages of the RP.

However, Ragna the Bloodedge (BlazBlue's main protagonist) seems to do that without breaking much of a sweat.

Of course, this is the man with the Azure Grimroir we're talking about here.

Ah, true. For those of you who don't know, the Azure Grimoire is one of the most rare objects in the world, and it is said that whoever wields it can obtain great strength... but not without a price...
Aaaand with that said, some sort of underground resistance would come later too? Guess now I'll just try and figure out how to get into it. As for Light not seeing my char profiles... did ya click the spoiler tags? >xp
There are no spoiler tags. :|
Then how are me and Hobo seeing them...? 0.o Meh, well here they are anyways...
Name: Carmelita "Karma" Evian
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Species: Beast-man
Occupation: Bounty hunter
Appearance: (http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b60/Keigoe/Carmelita%20Pics/Carmelita.jpg)
Bio: Having grown up in a family of bounty hunters, Carmelita was quick to take an interest in the field, and pick up the necessary skills to excel in it. Often, she had went on missions with various family members, siblings, mother, father. However, because of a fatal mistake that she made, an operation went wrong, costing her older brother proper function of his left leg. Unable to take the guilt of ruining such a young career, Carmelita deemed herself an outcast, and went out on her own. Now the determined, sassy fox has a name for herself, Karma, and hasn't missed a target yet.
Name: Rena? Taylor (Not her real name ;))
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Species: Human
Occupation: None/Freelance assassin or whatever job she can pick up... which is usually illegal.
Appearance: (http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b60/Keigoe/RP%20Stuff/JasiDoll.png) She has tattoos of an important date on the underside of her wrist, and a tribal rose on her lower back. Her ears are pierced at the lobe and cartilage as well as her belly button. Rena?'s hair is not naturally straight, it's a mass of tight coils that form an afro.
Bio: Ever since she turned thirteen? since her mom died? it seemed like Rena? only argued with her dad. Every other day, the tension between them rose. Two years later, all hell broke loose. The true hatred for her father burst out, and she struck him with a right hook to the jaw. Minutes led to hours, and by that time, it was a sword fight. There was no turning back. With a final slash, Rena??s father was down. She didn?t know if he was still alive or not, but she didn?t stay to find out. She sheathed her blades, and ran off with only the clothes on her back, all the money in the house, and her best friends, her weapons. None of her family has seen her after that. Nearly five years pass, and Rena? has become colder to be ?stronger?. Though she faked her death, she is sure that there are still people out looking for her because of what she did, including her father's mob.
Right, Ragna has the Azure Grimoire. Fully his to control as he uses Blood Kain ::)
BTW, hi. I might join this when I don't accidentally sleep all day ;)
I finally got done with all story's 100% so I can help you guys with any questions.
Cool...;) And feel free to take a chracter from BB if you want. :)
I was planing on taking Carl since he was one of my favorite characters in game and his story was, well interesting and still confuses me. Then I wanted to make an original character.
Just a little question, are we going after the True Ending as well? Or are we getting blasted to nothing?
We're going after the ture ending.
Yeah, we're doing the True Ending. And you can have an original character and Carl; just choose one to start out with and introduce the other later, once you've gotten the hang of it.
On a side note, we should try to get someone to play as Ragna and Rachel, seeing as how the plot can't really progress much without them.
I still don't know how I'd make my chars' appearances here. >.<

Maybe you're one of the people in the ramen shop, or someone at Ms. Litchi's clinic. I dunno. Make an entrance like you do with the other RPs.
Explode through a giant freighter!...Or...just appear from one of the passenger transportation systems, I dunno. :\
Right, I've got a question. What world are we in and are there surrounding worlds that my character could come from (preferably a less modern world... perhaps one like our own?) that would explain her lack of knowledge instead of me trying to pick all this up in time?
This is the Earth 200 years into the future. There's some time travelling annomalies, expecially near the Cauldron which is in the center of the Library. (Not like a book library, the Library in the BB world is the corrupt police force.) That might be your best bet for entering without any knowlege...Or you could buy the game. It's a really great fighter game. :)
I still don't see any way for me to get in it, or get wtf is going on. -_-;
IDK talk to people who are there or something. ????

Fight someone. NAO
1. Is it possible for someone to give me a really basic summary? Pretty much be like "___ are the bad guys, _____ are the good guys, ____ are trying to _____ in order to ______ because of _____."
2. Is it possible for some to learn this magic, or do you need to be born with it? Or can it be "awakened" within you?
3. What is a tager?

1. Library is the "Bad guys" Terumi is the true bad guy, and be happy you haven't met him. Most of the people in the game just have their own objectives.
2.Seither is the closest you can get to magic. It's what was born from the Black Beast, and you can't use your best abilities without it
3. TAGER IS REAL SOVIET DAMAGE!
Did that help you :)

Let me clarify.
1. The bad guys can be either the Library or Sector Seven, depending on what kind of character you have. If your character is rebellious, then the Library is the enemy; if your character upholds the law, then Sector Seven is the enemy.
2. ...Can't really add anything more to that.
3. Tager is a cyborg created by Kokonoe. His appearance is that of a red giant, and he is used for undercover work with Sector Seven.

Okay, so I want to go after the Library. And is Seither an item that you obtain, or is it just an essence?

You have to admit, Library really IS the big, bad corporation. They try to control all of the Ars Magus weapons, they use their military to keep 'order', and have Jin in their ranks.
Bad.
GENESIC EMERALD TAGER DRIVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PS. Seither is just in the air. Supposidly is a poison if you inhale too much. Can be used for fighting. Cannot be obtained except by exerting yourself or by being in a heavy poisoned area.
What Magnum said. Only it's spelled seithr; not seither.

And if you don't know what a GENESIC EMERALD TAGER DRIVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is then just Youtube it. ;)
