T h e F i f t h W o r l dRescreatu Open RP
You bl[injection]ink silently, staring out across the moon-soaked landscape. The wind runs its fingers through your hair, the cold stinging your face. Still, you stare on, searching the fields for a movement, a sign. The skies are dappled with high, wispy clouds, their bellies reflecting the bluish light of the stars. Flowers dance in the breeze, rippling like waves of an ocean. Everything is so quiet, so peaceful. You can see the lights of the cites below, sparkling in the bowl of the valley. The view is captivating, and no matter how you try you can't make yourself look away. Storm clouds are gathering in the distance, lightning dancing over the horizon. The birds have all gone to rest, and the entire world seems to have gone to sleep. Ships soar over the city, lights flickering against the dark sky. The fifth planet seems to be slipping into slumber, a calm, peaceful sleep.
Kir returned with what is known as the "First Wave" of creatu nearly a decade ago, and life began once again to flourish on Udalvi's rocky surface. Balanced by the Organic's presence, even plants began to grow. After four years, Udalvi was alive once more. The people there, the Udalvians, grateful for the help of the humans of the other Four planets, soon opened trade routs with the others. Since then, a portal was opened from the advanced, futuristic planet to the Four, and mortals, both human and creatu alike, were allowed to pass into the new world. A magnificent arch was built around the portal, and now, almost like a vertical, rippling pool of water, the wormhole stands erect from dawn to dusk, allowing travelers to transverse the expanse of space with a single step. New settlers and Udalvian explorers exchanged between the alliance of worlds, some setting up permanent residences on alien worlds. Udlvians and humans mingled peacefully, working side-by-side for another 13 years, up to present day. The Udalvian High Counsel and the Guardians of the Four united to create what is referred to as the "Great Court". The five worlds became almost one. Peace still reins over the lands. Now, more settlers are still coming to the advanced world, admiring the towering city buildings, and the massive size of the planet. Some choose to build small homes in the countryside, some live in the center of the super-cities. Open markets are scattered all across the land, promising hope for both merchants and ranchers alike. Now you have the opportunity to start anew. Will you travel to the Fifth World?
Goal Build your shop, find a home, and care for your creatu. :D Semi-lit at least, please.
Rules / ForumYour character is your HA. You can have as many creatu as you like (probably your profile pets), and you are a Merchant/Rancher depending on your class. You can decide where you live, and create your home from your mind. You can meet new users, and do almost anything you want. Between your characters (does not have to represent you) there can even be romance. For this, you need the other pla[injection]yer's consent first. You can only have one human character, but as many creatu as you like. You are allowed to share a house with another pla[injection]yer, and you are even allowed to be married. PG-13, please. :I All Res rules apply.
Name / Nickname: Three to Eight main creatu:
Home world:
Class: Home: Shop: Friends / Relatives: Other:
You can also refer other users to this RP. If you were referred by another user, you can put that user's name in the "Other" section. The referee can receive a TU-prize.
And on a bit of a sour note, I have the right to remove any users from this roleplay, anytime, and I do not need to give a reason. Please keep this in mind. All work must be original, and you must be polite to all other pla[injection]yers.
FAQQ: Where do you live?A: Anywhere you like in the valley around the Udalvian city.
Q: What is the city's name?A: It is known as "Cytna".
Q: What is the extent of the technology available?A: The Udalvians, and some of the richer immigrants, have hovercraft-like ships, and what are known as "Speeders"; close-body ships made for law-enforcement. There are not phones or computers, nor projectile weapons (guns are energy/stun), but instead there are swords, knives, and other semi-primitive weapons for the humans. In short, humans have primitive tools, and Udalvians have slightly more advanced, but completely different technology. There will not be phones, computers, television, cars, airplanes (the Udalvians do have flying ships, but they are nothing like planes of the modern world), or anything else of the sort.
Q: Can your character be Udalivan?A: No. Your character must be human, represented through your HA. Your character does not have to represent the real you.
Q: Can we use any name for our character and the creatu?A: For your character you can use any name, but for the creatu, you must actually own them. That includes names. In order to change the name of a creatu in the RP, you must actually change it in the game.
Q: Are guys welcome?A: Yes, of course.
Q: For the creatu in your rancher shop, can we make them up or do we need to have them?A: You can make these up.
Q: Can there be romance between two pla[injection]yer's creatu?A: Yes. :D
Q: What is the state of the creatu (in evolution)?A: The creatu can speak, but for the most part not fluently. They are about halfway between an animal and a human.
Q: Are there different modes of transportation?A: Yes. From small, Udalvian hovercraft, to the traditional wagon.

Name / Nickname: Cay
Three to Eight main creatu: Kritze [Natural Liyure], Numbers [Albino Otachie], Nomego [Calico Kayoki], Cett [Albino Roditore], Clone [Lemon Malal], and Qince [Azure Jahra]
Homeworld: Scria
Class: Rancher
Home: Cay resides in a small home on the outskirts of the city, sitting on the hill overlooking the Moon-lily fields. The home has a small, personal garden outside, and has flower vines crawling up a trellis at the entrance to the yard. A row of light-pink rosebushes line the outer fence, about chin high. The garden contains a small patch of Mirabilis fruit, and a few peach trees that she keeps small, and manageable. Her creatu are free to roam the three-acre plot of land, but seem to enjoy the outside flower fields the most. You can see the towering city in the distance, and the occasional ship flying over. Grass covers the small hill, kept neat and trimmed by Clone. Although the home is somewhat small, it is apparent that Cay isn't poor.
The house is two story, the second story displaying a balcony and a small loft. There is a warm, cozy living area upstairs, where the creatu typically sleep and play. The balcony sits over a small porch, looking towards the looming shadows of Cytna. On the porch below is a set of chairs, white wicker, and a small table where Cay likes to sit. There is usually a small vase of lilies on the table, her favorite kind of flower. Inside, there is a small kitchen and a reading nook, and then Cay's room is towards the back. Due to her enjoyment of reading, there is a small bookshelf in the back of the parlor, where she sits and relaxes in the evenings. The house has large windows and a lot of natural light filtering in, as well as a tiny fireplace in the corner. The fields of lilies outside cover the meadow-like valley floor, fading into farmland as you get further away from the city. A dirt road runs by the dip beside the hill, and a walkway from it leads directly up to the garden, stretching a few dozen yards between the two.
Shop: Referred to as "LaCortori Corner", the small rancher's shop sits on the very outskirts of the city. Again, not very large, the shop focuses on comfort and happiness of the creatu. Inside the shop is a small hatchery, full of squishies for the youngest creatu to play with. The older creatu typically help the costumers, or work in the outback garden that helps to provide for the little ones. A motherly, cream Roditore, named Ivangeline, helps to nurse the newborns in the hatchery.
Friends / Relatives: Jazz [Sister]
Other: Cay enjoys drawing and writing in her spare time, and is skilled as an artist when she finds the time to take commissions. She also enjoys slightly more traditional things, such as transport by wagons, but she sometimes mixes in more modern technology.

Name / Nickname: Wolfeira (she secretly despises being called "Wolf"...) or Eira Three to Eight main creatu: MarySue (or Mary Sue) the Orchid Zenirix, Nelle the Rose Shaefu, Copperia the Sepia Easero, Svotri the natural Ivik, Cymraes the ginger Malal, and Querestia the Sepia Valabex. Home world: Relcore
Class: Merchant Home: The house is a large, two-storey, modern Nordic-style house in the more rural parts of Uldavi. It sits near the base of a mountain, looking out over a lake, fed by a winding mountain river, that Wolfeira's crew often use to their advantage - either to exercise, play or simply fish in. Following a cobblestone path from the back door in a large conservatory is a small but sturdy barn, which acts as a shelter to Querestia (or any other unknown Creatu). Surrounding the barn and the house is a vast green space, clear of trees, slanted to one side due to the rise of the mountain. This field permits Wolfeira's Creatu the space to be free, as well as grounds for grazing in. The interior is mainly wood, with wooden beams across the ceiling that act as perches as well as structural supports. Jutting out of the topmost floor is a balcony that faces the lake directly. It acts not only like a source of solitude, but a takeoff and landing point for any flying Creatu. Creeping up the mountains a good half mile from the house is a vast forest that Wolfeira rarely ventures in. Shop: Your expected Merchant's stronghold, except the name keeps changing (its owner cannot decide on one name). For now, it is named "Capercaillie Copse". In appearance it looks like a little Victorian street shop, painted black, forming a corner in one of the outermost streets in the nearest city (wherever Cay lives...). Wolfeira travels there via Valabex whenever she can, but often assigns Nelle to mind the store. tle="Victorian style shop" target="_blank">http://static.guim.co.uk/Guardian/environment/gallery/2007/nov/08/fooddrinks/GD5251681@The-Unpackaged-store,-544.jpg That should give you an idea of its structure. Friends: None currently, she's still rather new to Uldavi. Other: Wolfeira is a keen writer and artist, but does not rely on commissions for a living. Her works are private. She prefers spending her time observing and studying Creatu, or making plans on how to improve her new home on Uldavi. |

Name / Nickname: Jazz
Three to Eight main creatu: Routed: Calico Valabex, Bliza: Cream Easero, Delana:Orchid Kurrabi, IrrationalLove: Ginger Iluvu, Virusa: Black Paor, Cerboros: Nattie Shaefu, Obtainment: Nattie Kioka, Ceresi: nattie Ivik.
Home world: Atquati
Class: Rancher
Home: My home is a while off the city. There is a quiet stream only a minute or two from my house. My creatu live indoors in the nursery, but are free to leave and explore the forest and moutains outside. The creatu I board live outside in a rather large enclosed pen. In the pen there is a meduim to large garden and a larger barn. The creatu I board stay only in the pen and barn. The stream flows just inside the pen. Flowers and grass grow everywhere, making it a very beautiful place. My house is rather like a cabin, but a bit bigger. It has two stories, one for main living (the lower one) and the other for the small nursery (up stairs). Up stairs in my and IrrationalLove's bedroom there is a balcony with small black chairs and a table. When standing on the balcany you can see the stream, the other creatu, the forest, and even the small house on the moutains. We have a telescope I brought from Atquati on the railing, and we often times use that to look up at the stars. This house was bought from a merchant, and as a result, there are many hiding places in it. There is a seceret door in my room, and it leads to a small book room. This door is covered by a wall hanging and no one but me and IrrationalLove knows about it.
Shop: My shop is located in the middle of the outskirts of the city. A rather small building, I use this place to sell items I have earned in trade for boarding creatu. Also, I use this building as the place to arrange boarding. While I man the Merchant portion of the shop, my faithful Iluvu, IrrationalLove, mans the boarding section while I am other wise occupied.
Friends: Cay (Cay is my sister. We grew quite close when our Mother died giving birth to me and she had to help take care of me after our Father died when I was 12 and she was 15.)
Other: I don't collect much, but I do like to sit by the stream and look at the trees, listening to the water as it trickles down the rocks. I have always loved the water, and am a good swimmer. I mainly walk to work, and that helps me keep in shape. I do own a wagon, but only use it when I am going to work.

Why thank you Cay :) And same xD I was quite worried it would be inappropriate for Res, actually. With the whole atmosphere of violence and all. But... a cactus... I'll put my bio in my first post, so I save some relative space for newcomers xD |

Yah. The only problem is, I'd only chose really personal Creatu for this kind of roleplay. But I just have so many D| I couldn't chose. Still, I wanted a mix of Creatu. I'm pleased with my choice :3 Especially Mary Sue xD (is it ok if I spell her name with a space?) She will be fun to roleplay... |

Really? Thanks very much :D I know that wagons and ships are the main forms of transportation, but I was hoping to use Querestia as a kind of mount. This alright, too? I apologise for asking so many questions xD Also. Your pets sounds very grand :) And your home deion, too. :D I kinda like it! |

(( Thank you. :D And yes, you can use your creatu as a mount, though it might seem a little more natural if it pulled a cart or something? XD You have freedom, though. ))

Yeah, I get what you mean. For joyrides or for trips to visit other people she might just ride by herself. But if she wants to transport wares or stay elsewhere for a while, she'd use a cart, definitely xD Hmm, I might introduce my own Malal, to help with pulling one or something... |

Cay snapped the reins, the cart bouncing up and down as they went. Clone snorted quietly, pacing himself as he rolled his eyes. Cay's eyes wandered over the landscape as they neared the city, icy blue orbs flickering around the sky. The dark, hazy purple buildings rose in the distance, towering what seemed like miles overhead. Every minute they seemed nearer, dust clouding behind them as they went.
Kritze lounged in the cart behind them, basking happily in the sun. If the creaking of the wood hadn't been quite so loud, the human might have been able to hear the soft purring emanating from the Liyure's chest. It was a warm spring day, and everything seemed alive. One of the ranch hands from the farm down the road waved to her as she rattled past, smiling at her kindly. Just as every day, she waved back to him, a smile at her own lips. Then he turned back to his work, and she continued on into the city outskirts.
Soon, they passed the first houses on the edge of town, a mixture of humans and Udalvians going about their daily business. Bakers and merchants cried out down the streets, advertising their goods for all to hear. Before long, dirt transitioned into cobblestone, the Malal's hooves clopping against the road. The wagon didn't rattle quite as much, and soon the Liyure behind her lifted her head, stretching with a yawn. She blinked a few times, taking in the sights and smells of those around her.
Clone slowed as a few children ran across the road, standing proud and tall when he felt their gaze on him. When the younger of the two children paused, staring at the large, bulking creatu, Clone slowed to a stop, lowering his head. The child looked a little nervous at first, but then grinned as the Malal nuzzled his hand. He beamed, looking up at Cay, then patted Clones side and continued across the road. The creatu watched as the child left, blinking once before trotting on once more.
