So as you've probably figured by now, this is something more of an interactive RPG than the norm. Part of the fun is gonna be player-admin interaction. I play the NPCs, you play your guys. Like a giant, ongoing game of D&D. Of course, you guys can choose to run your own stories too, but I'm the 'grand' dungeon master of sorts. 
That said, another thing I want to do is not be constantly stealing the stage from you guys. We already have Ganon and Thaal planning stuff out in the desert, and it looks like that's going to be a very interesting storyline in the long term. I don't want to interfere with that, unless Ganon WANTS me to interfere, for example with throwing new curveballs to deal with IC. But that's an example of the approach I'm taking. A lot of you guys from Chubbs are used to "event" and "not event", and everything that's "not event" doesn't really matter to the site as a whole. That's not going to be the case here. It's similar to the way MMORPGs have developed, where dungeons are everything and the players are all in their own little bubbles, with the world not changing particularly. I want this to be more like Minecraft. We're in a shared world here. If some players have an awesome storyline going on that affects a verse in a big way, I want to get more players, even more factions, involved if it makes sense IC, rather than interrupting with my own storyline.
So that said: is there anything you guys want to see me do? I'm mostly looking at the short-term here, but obviously you're free to drop suggestions for the long-term. I already have a plan for the overall storyline direction of the site, and even some larger things I'm hoping to do in the very near future, but I don't want to launch a big story if everyone is happy doing their own things. Similarly, if you want an event to happen, I have plenty of things I can kick off immediately in Coruscant, for example. Otherwise, I'm happy to watch for the coming weeks and work on other aspects of the site.

Since I didn't see any other place for it, would anyone like to plot with Kairi?
I also would like to ask a question . . . from what I have understood, am I supposed to still post in the Scramble even if the event is like over now? I only ask because the lore information I've read implies that all current playable character primes were brought in at the EXACT same moment, or, rather general time as one another. Is that uh, correct?
As a side note, I'll eventually have some character information up as a post(s) in Kairi's roster. Additionally, I'll probably keep a thread tracker in a separate post there as well, either, directly after my statistical information, or, after a more formal character profile post.

Name: Trixie Zulenka
Character Source: Custom Universe/Chubbs Universe
Trixie hails from the Demon Realm. The Realm of Demons or Demon Realm exists in a limbo dimension between the living and the afterlife. It was created millions of years before the first known sentient race existed. No one has been able to enter the realm out of free will. Only those chosen to enter may reside within. The realm is very small comparatively speaking; being about the size of the moon. It was destroyed in an assault by Luna Zulenka. The realm has since collapsed in on itself and Miss Trixie is the only remaining Demon of her type. When Omni summoned her to his universe her being was transformed. Vad was obliterated and fused into her soul. Her once bright neon pink eyes are now dull and faded; the pink energy that once coursed through them now dormant. She has no recollection of who she is or was. The only thing in her possession (yes she's naked too) being a photograph of her with Vad at their wedding. Taped to the back is their wedding ring which no longer glows with the energy it once did. The glow that once peered through the inscription on the band has all but evaporated.
Trixie was a Demonic Entity known to her people as an Imperial Blood Valkyrie. Her transformation was fierce and gave her many physical and mental improvements. With her short and long term memory seemingly gone she's unsure of what she is or who she is.
OOC wise looking at what she is; she's been twisted into a Time Altered Valkyrie. Details of which are currently unknown, but her arrival and summoning to the Omniverse has twisted who she was into something entirely new. The only thing she retains is her intelligence. However everything she was is unknown to her. Her abilities were completely wiped and anything she knows now is due to her husbands soul being violently meshed with hers. It will seem like instinct to her.
Stats:
ATK: 3
DEF: 0
SPD: 2
TEC: 5
Starting Proficiencies: Physical Proficiency; Basic Enhanced Senses; Basic Teleportation
Writing Sample:
Quote:A bloodied and shredded steel gauntlet dug into the concrete ledge of a sixty story office building.
"Stay in my head! Do not leave!"
The male warrior felt his weakened Super Saiyan transformation enhance his senses once again. Pulling himself up onto the roof he managed a handstand, catching Kristen in the chin as she came up behind him. Dropping back down over the ledge he avoided two spears of ice from Cynthia who had just arrived on the scene from the opposite roof. Kim had to duck in order to her dodge her girlfriends attack.
"Watch it, bitch!" She growled- having just avoided another ear piercing.
Letting go of the building the battle hardened saiyan let himself plummet to the ground. All four women dove after him. Vad had formed a light set of field plate over his body in an attempt to provide some cover between Jessica and her electricity. He had begun funneling her currents through a metal path of his own creation ultimately sending them back in her face. Vad's abdomen was severely burned from where Jessica had wrapped her arms around him and introduced high levels of electrical current into his system.
Halfway down Vad burst upward in flight. Tackling Jessica he slammed her into the concrete wall around the thirtieth floor. He growled through his bloody visage at her. His scouter was damaged and was having trouble keeping the four women around him locked on. Two seconds too late...
Kristin thrust her arm between Vad and her friend. Putting the inside of her elbow to the saiyans' neck she dragged him away. Igniting her left hand she pressed it against the steel armor covering his sternum and seared through it to his flesh.
Cynthia whistled and Kristin let the man go. Coating Vad in ice she left him to plummet to the street below.
"Right arm took most of the blow. From what I can tell most of your upper arm is in pieces. Your left knee is shot as well. You've blown most of the ligaments holding it in place and you'll be lucky to even put weight on it before it pops out. The burn she just inflicted is third degree." Trixie reported. Albeit it was grim news and her baby was being ripped apart she remained professional and let that show in her tone.
"Thanks..."
That's all Vad could muster. His eyes were bloodshot with pain and he was desperately trying to roll over onto his back. His scouter lit up as Kim brought an earthen hammer down upon her fallen saiyan victim. With scream of agony Zulenka became transparent, but collided with the nearest car- taking the roof clean off, proceeding to roll into the street. Kim lifted herself up from the indent she had made where Vad had previously been lying.
Jessica gently touched down next to the saiyan warrior and peered over his broken body.
"I'll give you one thing Mr. Zulenka. You can-"
She wasn't given the chance to continue. Vad pushed off the ground with his energy and sent his right fist into the bridge of her nose. She reeled back, placing her hands to her bloodied face. Zulenka stumbled forward in an attempt to stand. Solidifying steel around his left knee he kept the joint from moving and provided a cane of sorts.
"Piss off, lady." He spoke through large labored gasps for air.
Vad's transformation had long since disappeared and its' energy pool was extremely low. All he was doing was dodging and weaving through them. The saiyan began to succumb to his exhaustion just as the rest of the middle aged group moved in close to Jessica. As he fell onto his back into the realm of sleep, Trixie appeared in front of him dressed in her combat attire.
"Oh look. His girl has to finish what he started." Kim said with laughter.
Beatrix clenched her jaw in anger and growled at the four women standing in front of her. A set of fangs began to inch their way up through the mistress' gum line. In an explosion of contempt she unleashed the cry of a valkryie and erupted into a violent display of pink energy. The sky darkened as the shadows were dragged from their hiding places and absorbed into Trixie's body. Her skin turned a pale as did her hair. Black tribal tattoo's began to snake along her body stopping just above her breasts. Raising her now clawed hands to the sky a pair of feathered energy wings erupted into life onto her back.
Dropping into a stance the mistress bared her fangs at the four women in front of her. With another banshee like scream she flapped her wings and launched forward. None of the middle aged women saw Trixie coming.
***
Trixie landed outside the pizzeria and relaxed her transformation. She felt her personality take a massive 180 and the anger within her was replaced with sorrow. Lifting her husband to his feet she slapped him across the face.
"Stay with me, babe." She demanded.
Kicking open the restaurant door she pushed through and entered the dining area to find Piper sitting in one of the booths enjoying some food.
"You guys have fun too?" She said lazily.
Upon seeing the condition of Vad she got to her feet and moved to follow Trixie into the back of restaurant.
"Need any help, Trix?"
The mistress nodded as she lifted her husband onto one of the staff lounge tables in the back room. Clearing the surrounding area she pulled the table into the center of the room and pulled a capsule from her pocket. Clicking it she placed it on a nearby chair- a large surgical grade medical toolbox revealed itself from beneath the smoke. Lifting the box to the table she placed it next to her husband's head and opened it up.
"This is like Frost all over again god dammit! I don't suppose you have Sage's number on that phone of yours do you Piper?" Trixie asked as she tore open a large silk bandage.
"Who?" Piper asked.
"Yeah...wrong person." The mistress said in disgust as she pressed the bandage to her husband's abdomen.
Starting with the serious injuries first, Trixie had to brace and set her husband's knee. Surgically repairing his tendons and ligaments was out of the question. Taking control of his mind she had him form metal around it to keep it from moving. She did the same with his arm, but in a bent shape across his ribs. Proceeding to his other wounds she scrubbed and cleaned his burns while moving around to each laceration.
***
Piper entered the backroom with a slice of pizza. She held it out to Trixie, because the demonic woman hadn't eaten in hours. Taking the slice of food the mistress placed it in her mouth and took a bite. Swallowing the warm sustenance she sighed. The mistress had done everything she could. The rest was up to a vial of serum that had been mixed with her recently changed blood. Only usable once on the person she possessed, the concoction allowed the recipient to heal at an accelerated rate. Injuries that would normally require surgery would heal on their own. Though the process had been hastened it would still be a couple days before Vad would awaken.
Piper leaned against the door leading out of the break room.
"How's Reckner doing?" The mistress asked through a mouthful of pizza.
Piper nodded. That was all Beatrix needed to know.
"He'll be good to go in a day or two. I'm guessing once you got away they all joined up to attack him." Trixie reported as she took another bite of her pizza.
"We can't stay here long, Trixie. They're bound to be looking for us."
Crumpling the plate the redheaded woman stood up and belched loudly.
"We can use the penthouse Luna bought for us on the other side of the city for the time being. If we fly in the cover of darkness we can make it there in under two hours. What's better is that the apartment isn't registered as being up there so only we know about it."
With a nod Piper left her comrade alone with her husband and returned to check on Reckner.
Above is a sample from one of my threads with Piper on Chubbs. During her quest for the Dragonballs.

I’m gonna do this backwards to make Jeff/Greg suffer. DON’T SKIP AHEAD! You’ll get to find out who I am AFTER the writing sample.
For the writing sample is legend.
THE Legend.
The Legend… of Tight Pants!
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nv7Ts4v5_Bs">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nv7Ts4v5_Bs</a><!-- m -->
THE LEGEND OF TIGHT PANTS
He woke with a gasp, sweat pouring down his face, his breathing quickened and his body trembling. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and instantly, his entire body seemed to slacken and relax. He took another, and felt his heart rate decline.
“It’s over. Just the dream again,” he mumbled, his voice gravely with sleep. He wiped a thick layer of sweat from his brow and climbed to his feet, his mind flashing back to that formative day.
He never got along with the other kids, and spent most of his years in elementary being bullied by the other students. The validation he craved was always just out of reach, and not one person would call him ‘friend.’ But he’d concocted a solution; a reimagining of himself.
Showing up to gym class in tight short shorts was meant to separate him from the crowd, to make him stand out. To make the throngs of students accept him. To raise him up unto a god! But it had all gone horribly, horribly wrong.
Somehow, his execution hadn’t been successful. Somehow, something had gone wrong, and instead of being idolized, he’d become even more of a pariah than he had been before. In tears, he was driven from gym class, and fled the town of Truth or Consequences, swearing he would ‘get it right,’ whatever ‘it’ was. Most thought he’d left forever…
He shook his head. Just a goddamn dream. No, things were good now. Great, even. Fuck the past. He glanced over at the alarm clock. 7:04. Whatever. Might as well get an early start on his day off. He stood and stretched, before donning a striped sweater and his signature, bright white, ultra tight, tight pants. He slid them on and felt a familiar, almost painful, pressure clamp down upon his… stuff. Yeah. He knew he looked amazing. Finally, all he needed was a pair of kickass white boots, and he was out the door.
As soon as he stepped outside, the sun shone brighter, the grass grew greener, and the weather, already basically perfect, got better. The one cloud in the sky knew to get the hell out of there, for he had arrived.
Flashing a huge grin to the mailman and then firing off a quick double-finger-snap-slash-finger-points at a mother pushing her stroller, he elicited emphatic smiles and waves as he strolled down the middle of the street, traffic parting for him as he did, every driver and pedestrian as far as the eye could see trying to get a glimpse, a wave, or a high five from him.
Yes, he had arrived.
“Everybody’s talking ‘bout my tight pants, about my tight pants, I got my tight pants oonnn,” he sang aloud, dancing and snapping his fingers as he continued down the street.
“Oh my God, Charlene, look!! It’s Tight Pants!!” a woman started waving frantically, and it appeared she might be having a slight panic attack. He shot her a winning smile and continued on his way, his earlier nightmare fading fast. He’d known they were wrong so many years ago. Tight was right! He had just needed time to perfect it.
“Everybody’s lookin’ at my tight pants, I got my tight pants, I got my tight pants on!” he cheerily continued, sauntering gallantly into downtown Truth or Consequences. People cheered, screamed, and even fainted as he grooved and gyrated down the street. Traffic continued to try parting for him, but it was more difficult now, as traffic was heavier, and his evocative movements distracted some drivers, causing several minor accidents as he headed along, though nobody seemed particularly upset about it.
Across the street, on the sidewalk, almost invisible compared to Tight Pants, another man stood. A man who had scoffed at Tight Pants so many years ago, back when he still had a name, before his legacy, no, his Legend, had consumed him. Now Tight Pants had won the hearts and minds of all residents, and the man was alone. A man who seethed and boiled with jealous hatred.
“I’m the only guy in town wearin’ tight pants, I got my tight pants, I got my tight pants on! I’m the kinda guy wearin’ tight pants, I got my tight pants, I got my tight pants on!” sang Tight Pants, as more men cheered and more women swooned.
The second man glowered balefully at the dancing miscreant; this role reversal would go on no longer. He would have his revenge. The man stalked away before Tight Pants could see him. The element of surprise was crucial in usurping the indomitable power Tight Pants so clearly wore.
- - - - -
His name was Jimmy. Not Tight Pants, the other guy. The one mad at Tight Pants. You know, for stealing his thunder. Try to pay attention, would you? I mean, seriously, why am I even narrating this shit if you’re not even going to follow along? You paying attention? Yeah? You sure you can afford to? Never mind, I’ll be asleep by the time you get that one. Anyway, continuing on,
His name was Jimmy. And he had had enough of Tight Pants’ antics. Soon, he would not be the only guy in town wearin’ tight pants. He laughed a dark, guttural laugh, the timbre of someone who had once had everything, and was forced to let it go, but no longer. After a series of unethical experiments, his pants, his tightest pants, were ready.
For Jimmy was a scientist, both mad and angry, and had created pants so tight, they would bond with him on the molecular level. Yes, soon Tight Pants would be nothing, and Jimmy would inherit the crown. He would command the affection of the townsfolk, and his name would be sung in the streets. “Yes…”
He donned the pants, knowing they would become a part of him. He hadn’t considered that they would consume him. Corrupt him. Compel him to seek out and challenge Tight Pants immediately, before he was ready. Jimmy watched in horror as his body betrayed him, commanded at the behest of his genetically engineered tightest pants, and marched through the wall next to his door, and down the street, dancing and grand-gesturing his way to downtown Truth or Consequences, as shattered wall studs fell out of the hole, now strewn with drywall dust and debris.
- - - - -
“It’s- it’s working!!” Jimmy exclaimed, as people began to clamor around him in hopes of high fives or a winning smile. “Everyone… everyone…” Jimmy looked up to see Tight Pants dancing only ten feet away from where he, himself, was dancing. “Everyone in town likes my tight pants, I got my tight pants, I got my tight pants on!!”
Tight Pants’ dancing slowed to a confused, uneasy bobbing, as the impostor began to steal the affection of those gathered around them. “People wouldn’t lie about my tight pants,” the counterfeit continued. “I got my tight pants; I got my tight pants on!”
The screaming and random traffic accidents were now definitely happening more frequently around Jimmy than Tight Pants. The man who had overcome so much in gym class was watching his hard work – his birthright – being stripped away from him. Now it was he who sailed a sea boiling in anger just beneath his flesh.
“I can dance real low, I can dance real high, I can sleep real well knowin’ I’m the only guy wearin’ tight pants, I got my tight pants, and I’m the only one!” Jimmy belted out, his face twisted in horror as the tighter pants compelled him to sing. He saw now that what he had set out to do was wrong, heartless, even, but the pants would not relent. He saw the heartbreak in Tight Pants’ eyes. The man was broken, and it was his fault.
Tears welled up in Tight Pants’ eyes. It was happening all over again. He would be disgraced, and forced to leave Truth or Consequences again, probably forever this time. But then, his resolve redoubled. No, dammit. This was his birthright. This guy was clearly an impostor. He was the one people woke up early to see, not this two-bit knockoff!
“Hey, slow down there, old friend,” Tight Pants began, still trying to retain the upbeat atmosphere, as the onlookers were still cheering and clapping. No reason to force this guy to suffer as he had if he would just step away gracefully. “You say people are talking about your tight pants down at the local five and dime?” he inquired, though he already knew the answer. “Well, I find that hard to believe, since I live in this town and everyone I know is talking about my tight pants.”
“Well,” Jimmy began to involuntarily retort. He fought it with all his might, but the tighter pants squeezed the words out of him. “I talked to Mayor Grimble the other day, and he declared my pants the tightest in the land!” he finished with a forced flourish.
But Tight Pants had had enough. He towered over Jimmy, and his glare became so intense that even the genetically engineered abom-pants-nation froze. “Now you listen to me, you sick son of a bitch,” Tight Pants commanded, instantly silencing the adulations of the onlookers. An eerie quiet settled in on downtown Truth or Consequences. “I don’t know who you are, or where you came from, but I’m the only one in this town that can wear tight pants. You got it?!” he didn’t know what had come over him, but the rage wasn’t yet satisfied. Tight Pants pressed more aggressively. “I will end you!” he threatened. “Don’t wake the snake!”
Tight Pants began hissing at Jimmy, much to the surprise and horror of the crowd. Some laughed uncomfortably, thinking perhaps Tight Pants was playing a poorly executed joke. Nobody had ever seen him so riled up. Murmurs began to spread; perhaps he was so insecure about his identity that he would resort to murder to dissuade anymore impersonators.
“You drinkin’ my sake, kimosabe?!” Tight Pants demanded, moving further into Jimmy’s personal space. The intensity of Jimmy’s fear overwhelmed the biological AI in his tighter pants, frying the circuitry. Mercifully, Jimmy was freed from their iron grip. He didn’t care that Tight Pants was posturing like a maniac; all that mattered was that his mad experiment was over, and that he was his own man again.
“Rock and rolla, Ayatollah,” Jimmy conceded, raising his hands up in a sign of surrender. “I guess I’ll find a new town,” he didn’t need to add that it would do him some good to start with a clean slate; it didn’t need to be said. Tight Pants was happy, and he was free. That was all that mattered.
“Everybody’s talkin’ bout my tight pants, I got my tight pants, I got my tight pants on!”
The song continued behind him as Jimmy walked away, and he could hear the renewed fervor of the crowd and their cheers of approval. He smiled. He didn’t need to be Tight Pants. Tight Pants was a hero. Tight Pants… was a legend.
He’d seen the legend. Talked to it. Been a part of it. That was enough for him. Being a legend, it turned out, wasn’t for Jimmy. No, he’d be content to just tell the tale around the world, or maybe just around New Mexico.
Either way, the Legend of Tight Pants was only beginning…

Character name: Magus (alias)
Character’s real name: Janus
Character source: Chrono Trigger
Character history:
The Kingdom of Zeal circa 12,000 BC was a time of the highest magic and technology. Suspended in the clouds by powerful examples of both, the floating islands that made up the lands of the kingdom separated the nobles in the sky from the commoners on the surface below in the most literal division of classes history had ever seen. Zeal was a place of advanced flying machines and wonders such as the Ocean Palace, a place of incredible technology resting at the bottom of the ocean, accessible only via teleportation from the Zeal Palace.
Born in 12,008 BC to Queen Zeal, Prince Janus lived a harsh life. After the suicide of King Zeal, Janus’ mother was driven mad by her lust for power. A strong introvert due in part to personality and circumstance, Janus was cold and distant, much like his mother, close only to his pet cat Alfador and his sister, Schala.
Considered by many to be a pariah due to his apparently limited magical ability and aloof personality, most felt Janus a ‘troubled’ child, and few were eager to befriend a child that the ruthless Queen seemed to detest.
Janus’ sister, however, was unimaginably powerful, second only to their mother, and went to great lengths to care for him. She was his only pillar of support and the only one with whom he conversed regularly. Schala was also the only one who realized how deeply in tune with magic Janus really was, but could do little about it without risking the Queen’s reprisal.
When she was forced to leave to work on an extended experiment with their mother, Janus became angry and disowned Queen Zeal, both furious at his mother’s increasingly risky and unethical practices for acquiring more power and heartbroken to be left with no one but his cat.
In truth, Queen Zeal had developed a machine to feed off of the most powerful force of nature that had ever or would ever exist. The ‘Mammon Machine,’ as she called it, fed directly off of the power of Lavos, a creature which had crashed into the earth during its prehistory and burrowed to its core, feeding off of the planet and all the life on it, all the while shaping and guiding evolution for millions of years.
Unfortunately, Lavos fed on the feedback created by Queen Zeal, Schala, and the other magical masters, and awoke more powerful than ever, unleashing an apocalypse. The floating Kingdom of Zeal was obliterated, as was much of the world below.
The feedback created by the Mammon Machine thrust Janus and the masters into portals through time, leaving the others to weather the armageddon.
Janus found himself in the middle ages, a place of swords and superstitions, 580 BC in his world. He was beset by monsters known as Mystics, and was forced to defend himself with magic, which was thought to have died out among humans ages ago. One of the creatures, Ozzie, saw the potential in Janus’ abilities, and despite being a mage himself, recognized that the boy could easily surpass him one day.
Rather than slaughter the child, Ozzie took him in and raised him, training Janus in the arts of magic and refining his abilities until the day that he could become the Fiendlord of the races of the Mystics. Janus took the name ‘Magus’ in reference to the indomitable magical power he then wielded.
In the twenty years he spent in the backwards middle ages, Magus hadn’t simply become more powerful, but hateful and vengeful of Lavos and his mother for what they had done to his sister. Magus thought of Schala always, and became consumed with his desire slay the monster.
To this end, Magus used his position as Fiendlord to acquire and consolidate power, and engaged in much posturing to cultivate his following among Mystics as a God-King. Though originally unwilling, Magus led his generals in full-fledged war against the Kingdom of Guardia in order to acquire more power and to further deify himself.
Part of him knew that it was also partly out of spite. The people of Guardia thought him a Mystic himself since he was so closely associated with them and could practise magic. Worse yet, his extended exposure to dark magic had twisted his appearance, draining the color from his flesh and twisting his ears into elf-like points, and shifting the hue of his eyes from vibrant green to fiery scarlet. They treated him with the same disdain that the nobility of Zeal had when he was a boy.
The war went well for Magus and his generals. Battle after battle ended in disaster for Guardia, and eventually the kingdom was forced to send their greatest knight, Sir Cyrus, and his squire Glenn, to do battle with Magus himself.
Though Cyrus wielded the Masamune, a legendary sword and the only weapon available to the forces of Guardia capable of breaking Magus’ magical defenses, the Fiendlord bested Cyrus in single combat, murdering him and breaking the sword.
The squire tried to avenge the knight, and Magus disdainfully transformed him into an anthropomorphic frog and kicked him over the edge of a waterfall for the amusement of Ozzie, who had watched the confrontation with Magus and Sir Cyrus.
Now with Guardia heavily on the defensive, Magus focused all of his attention on summoning Lavos within the heart of his keep. He had hoped the harbinger of defeat would leave Guardia powerless to interrupt him, but two warriors accompanied by Glenn the Frog managed to breach his castle’s defenses and enter his summoning chamber.
Glenn, armed with a repaired Masamune, confronted Magus, forcing him to engage in battle with he and his allies. Shockingly, Glenn and his allies were not only able to match him, but had somehow acquired magical talent of their own, though Magus had never once encountered a human other than himself in this time with the ability.
The combined assault of three magic-infused warriors coupled with the incredible mental exertion of holding the summoning spell was too much for the Fiendlord, and Glenn overpowered him, shattering his defenses and wounding him with the legendary sword.
The frog boorishly gloated that he’d prevented Magus from creating Lavos, prompting the arch mage to explain that the creature already existed. His concentration broken, Lavos began to awaken. Magus tried to will it back to sleep, but was interrupted by a massive temporal distortion, which cast he and the three warriors through another gate through space and time.
To his elation, Magus found himself back in his own time just a few months before he had originally been displaced to the middle ages, and the warriors who had defeated him were noticeably absent. He wasted no time making his way back to Queen Zeal, but not before disguising himself in heavy, opulent robes in order to present himself as a great and powerful oracle.
It was easy for him to gain the trust of his power-hungry mother. By making prediction after prediction of the events he had already lived through once before, his reputation as a mighty Prophet spread throughout the kingdom.
It didn’t take long for Queen Zeal to bring him along with Schala and the masters into the Ocean Palace to see the Mammon Machine. It was a difficult time for Magus, who was forced to remain in disguise and not reveal himself to his sister, though every part of him yearned to do so. Still, he knew if he did not confront and kill Lavos when his mother summoned it, he may have risked losing Schala forever. He continued playing his part instead, biding his time.
As he expected, Glenn’s allies arrived, and Magus was able to use his station as a Prophet to easily have the intruders executed. Schala, however, intervened, pleading for their lives to be spared. Unable to hurt his sister, Magus agreed, and banished them through a temporal gate, forcing Schala to seal it behind them.
However, the warriors annoyingly found another way back into 12,000 BC, and arrived again to interrupt the activation of the Mammon Machine, this time moments too late. Lavos was awakened and almost immediately, Queen Zeal attacked Schala who had attempted to reason with her, and leapt upon Lavos, seemingly able to will it to attack and defeat the time traveling warriors.
Magus chose that time to reveal himself, and he, too, was struck down by Lavos before it drained him of much of his power. One of the time travelers, Crono, managed to push himself to his feet and sacrificed himself to give Schala enough time to infuse magic into her pendant to send Magus and Crono’s allies out of the Ocean Palace, but not enough for her to spare herself.
History was forced to repeat itself, and Lavos erupted out of the crust of the earth to rain down apocalyptic destruction, once again erasing the Kingdom of Zeal and decimating the people who lived below.
Contemplating suicide, Magus was confronted at a cliff near the only surviving human settlement on the planet by Glenn and his friends. He took the opportunity to reveal himself as Janus Zeal, and explain his motivations, before giving Glenn the opportunity to face him in a final battle to the death.
Instead, Glenn showed remarkable chivalry and invited Magus to join them in their quest to defeat Lavos. Incensed at his most recent failure, and at the prospect that Schala may have been killed, Magus didn’t hesitate to join, and adventured with the group for a long time.
Finally, the time came, and they traveled forward in time to the day Lavos emerged from the core of the earth. After a long, protracted and bloody battle, Magus finally stood victorious. With his new allies, they were able to strike the monster dead. He watched it squirm and thrash in its death throes, roaring its hideous, guttural roar that didn’t simply reverberate around him, it seemed to pierce through him, but he watched it die.
And it was right then, right then that he was thrown through another portal.

This will be updated as more of the Omniverse's history is revealed and as events occur.
--------
“Year 0”: The Omniverse is created?
Year 1: Palpatine and Aragorn arrive in the Omniverse. Who arrived first is a matter of intense debate. The pair of men travel together before parting on negative terms and creating opposing factions—The Empire and the Kingdom.
Year 2:
The existence of Azathoth in the Astral Realm is first noted, although modern historians theorize the ‘entity’ is likely as old as the rest of the Omniverse. A group of young apprentices in Minas Tirith, eager to explore ‘the Astral Verse’, venture there without their mentor. When they are finally retrieved weeks later, all are in some advanced stage of incoherence and insanity—babbling about ‘the black man’ and the ‘creatures in the dark.’ In the coming years, as knowledge of this chaotic god in the dreams spreads, various cults would spread across the shadows of the Omniverse. The Astral Realm becomes a forbidden place filled with death and torment.
Engineers in Coruscant manage to create the first VR interface. This allows them to explore the Dataverse, where they are the first to encounter the Librarian AI and the Databanks.
Year 3: Handfuls of demonic forces from the Underverse under the orders of a being called Diablo begin to raid parts of Camelot, the Pale Moors, and Coruscant.
Volvagia arrives in the Omniverse and settles in the Ashen Steppes.
Sapphiron arrives in the Omniverse and settles in the Frozen Fields.
Over a period of about three months, the ‘first wave’ of primes arrive in the Omniverse, including individuals like King Bradley, Albus Dumbledore, Thrall, and Doctor Gero. All would go on to become inner circle members of the Empire or Kingdom.
The first appearance of Tyrael and his first meeting with King Aragorn.
Coruscant expands downward, with a second and then third tier being created by the year’s end.
The first Omniverse News Network recordings start to appear in the Omniverse. These first recordings appear on the nascent Dataverse, as well as parcels delivered on various devices. Ron Burgundy serves as the network anchor. The charismatic, scotch-loving homme fatale swoons women and even some men, with his dedication to details, the truth, and the occasional gossip. Burgundy, who seems to know a little too much about Coruscant, becomes the target of an Imperial espionage mission that turns up zero results as to where he is or where he may be broadcasting.
Immortan Joe arrives in the Omniverse. He is drawn to the Endless Dunes, where he gradually draws a group of suicidally devout followers called the War Boys. They maraud around the Endless Dunes in a fleet of chrome, V8 cars and leave death in their wake.
Wartortle, a Pokémon extremist, arrives in the Omniverse. He would wander the various verses as he sought to understand his new realm.
Darkshire is founded and quickly becomes the center of a sprawling agrarian colony of the Kingdom. After initial success, the town develops a thriving economy, bringing great wealth to the town and its populace despite the hostile surroundings.
Silent Hill is founded by a trio of primes in one of the more beautiful regions of the Pale Moors. The town becomes a thriving tourist community.
Dalaran is created in the skies above Minas Tirith.
Costa del Sol is founded in the Vasty Deep, with the construction of Impel Down starting soon there-after.
Year 4: A ‘second wave’ of primes appears over the course of two months, including: Baron Victor, Charles Xavier, Dredd, Masamune, and Kizaru, Andrew Ryan, Roland Deschain, Bruenor Battlehammer, Tsunade, Tyrande, Zul’jin, and Davy Jones.
Carrefore is established as the Empire begins wide-scaled mining and industrial operations in the Endless Dunes. The Empire spreads and increasingly comes into conflict with Immortan Joe and his War Boys.
Mokugakure is founded in the Tangled Green. Date Masamune spends a period of time here before settling in Camelot by the end of the year.
Bilgewater is founded in the Vasty Deep.
Tyrande leads the elves to the Tangled Green, where they found Yggdrassil.
Coruscant adds a seventh and final tier to serve as a city-sized industrial park.
Princess Luna arrives in the Omniverse. Within a few months, she sets her sights on the hells of the Astral Realm, starting a protracted campaign against the vile monstrosities of Azathoth.
Darunia arrives in the Omniverse and goes on to establish the Goron Village at the bottom of Death Mountan. He later discovers Volvagia slumbering inside the magma chamber at the top of the highest peak.
Kizaru is reassigned to Costa del Sol and given jurisdiction over the region. He goes on to expand and ‘modernize’ the token naval force into the Imperial Navy of today, with himself as its admiral.
Davy Jones joins the Imperial Navy. His vessel, the Flying Dutchman, becomes something of a pop culture icon in Costa del Sol as the navy becomes a ‘second pillar’ of the community.
Fishman Island is founded in the Vasty Deep.
Year 5: ‘The Fouling of the Moors’ occurs when a massive army erupts from the Black Gate and conquers all of the Pale Moors except Darkshire.
Mewtwo arrives in the Omniverse and wanders the various verses.
Roughly two platoons of Coruscant’s most elite space marines, supported by over four dozens of their most capable war machines, leave for the Endless Dunes. Their objective is to destroy the War Boys. Never one to turn down a fight once he hears about the Imperial dogs marching his way, Immortan Joe and his army of zealots meet them head on. The non-stop battle that follows lasts over two days, but in the end, the Immortan is defeated and banished. The remains of his War Boys flee into the Dunes, where most are never heard of. The banished Joe would become a Lord of Hell within a few months, and the survivors of the spec-ops force (less than 40% of the original number) return to find Coruscant has been attacked by Demons.
Contact with Silent Hill stops but the city isn’t occupied or sacked despite the situation in the rest of the Moors.
An army of demons pours through from the Nexus, overwhelming the small force station at the Gate in what would become the Battle of Coruscant. The demonic armies ravaged and pillage Tier 1’s golden city for nearly three days before an organized force could be drawn together from the outskirts. Demons poured down as far as Tier 3. Palpatine creates a group of extremely powerful space marines to serve as his bodyguards—after the war, more marines would be made to serve elsewhere. Several battles were fought before the demon army broke apart, and it would be weeks before the city was declared ‘demon free’.
During the Battle of Coruscant, Davy Jones was close enough to port that he returned to Costa del Sol. He had his crew head into the town and seize control of various landmarks. Resistance of any kind was met with death. Jones, believing he was acting to prevent chaos from spreading and undermining the city, was arrested a few days after the fighting in Coruscant ended. To Kizaru, Dredd, and others, Jones’ actions were seen as an attempted coup. His crew was executed. His ship was scuttled. Jones, a prime, was banished to the Underverse in the town square of Costa del Sol.
In the aftermath of the Battle of Coruscant, Palpatine revokes freedom of expression and enacts harsh censorship standard. Surveillance increases throughout Coruscant as several new bureaus are created to oversee ‘domestic observation’ and ‘state news’. All public news except the state-owned Coruscant News Network and HoloNet are shuttered.
Bruenor Battlehammer leads his dwarves out of Camelot and to the Frozen Fields, where he founds Dwarveholm.
Rex Libris founds the Great Library of Coruscant as part of the city’s reconstruction.
Andrew Ryan, disgusted with what Coruscant has become, leaves for the Vasty Deep. Within months there are reports of ‘Rapture,’ an underwater city of thinkers, scientists, and businessmen.
Year 6: Zul’jin and his trolls are forced from Camelot.
Dobson Skendor, a young and very confused man, arrives in the Omniverse. Unknowingly and unintentionally, he summons his father to the Omniverse, a war hero. Dobson and Commander Skendor eventually wind up in the Kingdom, where Dobson’s father is every bit the hero and effective leader he was in their previous life. The two wind up on the ‘front lines’ in the Pale Moors, with Dobson serving as his father’s aide-de-camp. Both taking a liking to Darkshire and vow to stay there and protect it.
Sam Vimes arrives in the Omniverse and spends a period of time drinking in various verses before settling in Minas Tirith and joining the Guard.
Vi arrives in the Omniverse and winds up becoming a community enforcer in Tier 5. She is recruited into the Empire Police Department within 8 months and quickly excels.
Charles Xavier, after two years of humanitarian work on the lower tiers, is targeted by Judge Dredd for providing support to rebel factions. Charles escapes from Coruscant to Camelot, where he becomes a member of King Aragorn’s retinue.
The Viper arrives in the Omniverse.
Karl Jak, host of the popular Dante’s Abyss line of programming, arrives in the Omniverse.
The Librarian of Dalaran arrives in the Omniverse. He eventually settles in Minas Tirith, where he works at – and then takes over – his eponymous library.
The archives of Ultan are opened up on Coruscant’s fifth tier. The archives are popular enough that they become the site of Remembrance Day celebration for the one-year anniversary of the Battle of Coruscant. King Bradley is there, and the event is attacked by a rebel army. Planned for months in advance, the assault is coordinated and crippling to the onlookers and the troopers. Bradley, however, is not incapacitated in the surprise attack and proceeds to slaughter north of a hundred men before the rebels break and flee into the city. Dubbed ‘The Ultan Incident’, this marks a gradual withdrawal of Imperial soldiers from Tiers 5 and 6, leaving the citizens to deal with the crime and chaos themselves.
Mewtwo settles on Cinnibar Island after leaving Coruscant. Within a few months, settlers have joined him and created a full-fledged village.
Mortimor Boone creates his undead garrison to protect Darkshire.
Year 7: King Aragorn assembles the ‘Grand Army,’ a fighting force comprised of the Kingdom and various regional allies, both inside and outside of Camelot.
The Battle at the Black Gate results in the Underverse being sealed away from the Omniverse at the cost of Tyrael.
Contact with Silent Hill resumes. City leaders speak of mounting a valiant defense, yet the town shows no signs of damage.

Sam Vimes becomes the Captain of the Guard in Minas Tirith.
Bowser Koopa arrives in the Omniverse and establishes his Kingdom by the end of the year.
Data Masamune and his soldiers settle in the far eastern expanses of Camelot and lay the foundation of one of the first human cultural enclaves in Camelot. Named Sendai, it is one of the earliest of what would later be called ‘the Outerlying Duchies’. Many more follow.
Mewtwo and Wartortle come to odds over policy, resulting in a fight between the two of them. After they are unable to defeat the other, Wartortle leaves to found the ‘Liberation Front,’ a group dedicated to spreading chaos and unraveling the status quo of the Omniverse.
The Kingdom withdraws the last of its soldiers from Darkshire. Mortimor Boone is elected mayor.

Vi is ‘promoted’ and reassigned to be the Enforcer at Costa del Sol in the Vasty Deep.
In the latter half of the year, ‘The Scramble’ occurs - the first mass influx of primes since the sealing of the Underverse. Both the Kingdom and Empire immediately respond. Many of the first Primes to arrive are taken voluntarily to Camelot and Coruscant, while representatives of the Empire and Kingdom remain at the Fountain to negotiate with subsequent arrivals.
Diablo destroys the Underverse Kingdom of Tevinter, smashing the kingdom of magicians and warlocks so profoundly that even the laws of physics and reality are broken. From this ‘Despoiled Dreamscape’, Diablo plucks a former advisor, now a tormented wraith. The Mari Lywd is endowed by Diablo to stalk the wasteland to ensure the survivors never design against him again.
Bonbon Sunshine arrives in the Omniverse. She finds herself in Camelot, and after a period of adjustment, discovers a group of displaced humans.

She renames the town Berry Blitzkrieg and vows to fight ‘evil’ from that day forth.
The Viper vanishes into Silent Hill and becomes the only prime capable of communicating outside of the city once inside its fog-covered limits.
Triel Baenre creates Menzoberranzan, a city deep underground, in the outer reaches of the Pale Moors.
Late in the year, the Emperor’s Jubilee is held. A number of threatening Dataverse messages are posted leading up to the event, culminating in cyberwarfare leading several Primes to infiltrate the Dataverse. The terrorists are murdered en masse by Judge Dredd and a squad of stormtroopers.
Commander Skendor is gravely wounded, resulting in his son Dobson assuming more responsibilities within the town guard.

The competition is vile and chaotic, so it is naturally a smash success and viewed across the Omniverse and through the Dataverse. Dubbed the first 'Omniverse-wide watershed moment' since the Scramble of primes a year earlier, the event turns Karl Jak into a celebrity and Syntech into an immensely successful company. At the end of the competition, Sasuke Uchiha is the lone survivor and crowned Grand Champion. The Dante Verse is sealed once all non-Syntex personnel are escorted out, although Karl Jak never recedes from the limelight.

Staged by individuals in the town to look like a drow job, the assassination galvanizes Dobson Skendor, the commander's son, to launch a relatively bloodless coup that ousts Mayor Boone, who later vanishes completely from the record. With the aid of Shang Tsung and Atelos (two Defenders of Darkshire), Dobson, Demetri, and a few others assume control of the town's management.

Character name:
Kairi
Character source:
Kingdom Hearts
Character history:
A long time ago, well, maybe not so long ago, as, this (the omniverse), is not exactly the beginning, or, even the end, worlds were linked; their hearts and the souls of their subsequent inhabitants, open to one another, and – for the most part – protected. Because, they were guarded, protected by just masters that held keys in their hands. It is said that these (the keys) were bladed and were summoned by will of the user alone. Reality saw itself to be cruel however, for their greatest strength, was also their greatest curse.
The pathways between worlds were open to them, and, there very hearts exposed to the dangers of corruption, and, of course manipulation. It is partially their very existence to blame for darkness that soon enveloped, yet, not entirely so. The failure of those that were to stand as guardians, highlights the spreading of beings of sheer corrupt intent: the Unversed. Intent itself being the source of what makes a human a human . . . emotion, specifically, negative emotion of a very particular boy. But, this is not his story, so, I must begin slightly after.
There were worlds of light, just as there were worlds in the dark, Radiant Garden was of the former, and, would be so for the first several years of Kairi’s life. For that time, she lived in a castle with her grandmother, and, it was not until she was four did the illusion of sanctuary faded. The concept of home, could not save her from the unversed that chased her that day. Instead, Aqua one master of the keyblades did. Granted she was only a master in the little girl’s eyes, as, by the standards of their order, Aqua was really only an apprentice. At any rate, fate, had more of a role to play that day than simple rescue.
Shortly before the arrival of King Mickey, Kairi touched the keyblade that Aqua carried, and, initiated a rite that would be later known as Inheritance. This would in turn pass on the ability to wield it much like the keyblade masters did themselves. Initially unaware of this, the knowledge that might have otherwise made her special, faded, and not just in one way. A year later, darkness enveloped all of what Radiant Garden is, and, was. It scattered all those souls that lived their across the stars, to different worlds, realms and for some, into non-existence towards the folds of reality itself where new planes of reality breed. Yet it sent her to Destiny Islands.
Aptly named for so many destinies were created there, and, dealt a twisted hand by fate. It is where the Unversed were first formed, at least, those that would become the enemy of the last remaining keyblade masters. A civil strife between them would divide them, and, utterly conquer them as well, while, Kairi lost all of her memories of that previous life. There was just the island, and, her friends on it: Sora and Riku. They grew up together laughing, playing, with her spurning the two on. After all, they had a rivalry that she did not quite understand, for her attention. Later she understood it, but, that was so long after it all when time seemed to blend together with the darkness that came to the Islands during her fourteenth year.
It came again; a darkness . . . in the form of the heartless. Ansem, a seeker of sorts sought to destroy all worlds, rather, morph them in his image with the light being eliminated. In a way, he was somewhat of a blissful fool as the dark can only truly exist if there is a light. Two sides of the same coin appeared on that day.
Sora stood for the light, and, Riku became corrupted by the dark. Sora went to save him and Kairi only has vague memories of the rest.
Time is fickle that way. It holds a place as memory, moving pictures of images that are familiar, but, as soon as any semblance of it becomes concrete it slips through your grasp; it seems to speed up, and, slow down, and, sometimes not exist at all. Much of her time spent, became like that. She faded in and out of consciousness only partially aware that she had been taken to, away from Destiny Islands. Then, there was something else, something very important, but, each time she tried to think of it, upon it, or, even on it, it slipped through her mental grasp.
Hostage. The thought came and went whisk like a flame in the breeze. Princess, pure of heart, a key to another realm of infinite power. Thereafter, confusion, it would all fade and she would hear Sora sometimes see him, but, he would be gone after. Finally though, there came a time when ‘others’ (those like she), were gathered and everything was clear. Kingdom Hearts, represented all the power that those whom would misuse and abuse it desired. And, she like them around her could open the way, because, she existed only in the light, and, like the other Princesses’ of the Heart, could not be corrupted. Together there could open that doorway that should have never been.
Sora came. She saw him and saved him as he saved her. He had become heartless and with a touch she restored him to the light because she had promised to protect him. Memories began to slip again when they were separated, as, he had feared for her safety, she was brought back to the hub of all worlds: Traverse Town to be guarded by the friends Sora had made in his journey. So, she explored the town and made a home for herself there, for a while, but, she could not keep her thoughts away from Riku. She wanted to save him too, but, Sora had convinced her to stay. Giving him a parting charm which strangely enough would serve as one of his keyblade forms, she soon departed from that place anyways.
The sands felt hot on Destiny Island. They were no longer so welcoming, and, she could feel a presence lurking about every corner. Sora returned for her, and fought which she assumed was the root of the darkness plaguing the verses: Ansem. Her friend’s victory there, ironically, separated them as the worlds fell back into their proper places in reality. She was sent back to the true version of Destiny Island, just before Sora could reach her. In their secret place – a cave where they drew and a mysterious close door rested – she found what had been drawn such a long time ago; a half-drawing which she completed depicting Sora giving her a particular fruit, a symbol of love on the world that they both called home. She returned the favor and then time jumped and she could not remember.
There was a boy with no name. She missed him terribly. Then, there was a silhouette something growing in that darkness again. It laid beyond that door, and it tempted her, every day. She would venture back after school, longing for the boy to return. However, one day their ‘secret’ place held another secret, something created that should have never been. And it had opened that door. The door that had once only been painted, but now was there, there enough for her to peer across the threshold. A strong feeling of uneasy kept her from stepping through. Yet, fate can be ever so cruel. She fell, rather, she was pulled by something that was not there at all.
A cloaked figure spoke in the doorway’s darkness. Kingdom Hearts held no truth at all only this presence. This silhouette stole her voice. It put a sphere of dancing colour in her hand. She turned back wishing desperately to see the other side. It explained a twisted game: its game where power sought became the desire of those cast there. In those moments she only wished to remember, to remember that boy’s name. The name never came. A whiteness took her and at its center was a fountain. Soon thereafter, she forgot entirely.
There were only images . . . places, people and powers with no names. She glanced down seeing something that was not actually there. It was important, incredibly important and dangling down from what appeared to be steel was a particular fruit. A fruit that too had no name, but, was ever so important to her. What she remembered when she awakened was the key to everything. It could open up portals to an unknown destiny. She knew not its name, but, the image of a keychain filled her mind, and, trailing upwards towards a blade, shaped to fit and open a lock. Then, nothing, nothing but the fountain and the white; nothing was in her grasp.
If you're not very well versed in Kingdom Hearts lore basically I'm taking Kairi from the end of Kingdom Hearts I.

Writing example:
Across the sand, there were many shuffling feet; a few children laughed, and, there was a ball being tossed high up into the air, as, waves crashed and billowed in the foreground. Every now and then, the footprints left by those feet would be swept away by the onslaught of the streaming, and, thereafter, rescinding tide.
All together there were three (children at play), two boys and a girl.
“Tidus put that down before you hurt someone, ya?” One of the boys with spiked orange hair cupped his hands and shouted to his friend. The blonde turned and stuck his tongue out, flipping off his legs into the ball to send it flying off down the beach towards the others.
The girl giggled.
“Don’t take him so serious like . . . Kairi.” Wakka tilted his head at the ball and simply caught it with one hand. “Ya see,” he showed a bright grin, “he has got no game.”
“What was that?!” The youth was rushing back towards the pair of them now, and, Wakka dropped the ball, and, with a quick kick he sent it soaring again.
“I said,” he cupped his hands again, “you have no game!” Wakka chuckled, watching as the ball clobbered its mark. His laughter still echoed as a soft ululation came upon his ears.
“H-hey, uh, Wakka?” Rather soft spoken from his side, Kairi, kept her hands interlocked just behind her back, and, stared out, beyond the shoreline into the waves themselves. In the distance the sun had begun to set, leaving the horizon a milky, hued, orange. She seemed to be looking straight at that glowing orb.
“Ya?”
“You really can't remember?”
He turned back towards her, and, the ball flew past him. His head tilted at Tidus, and, his eyes became a glare, thereafter, he shook his head. “This again; I thought you were past it?” The blonde was about to shout, and, his hand was outstretched pointing at Wakka, as though, he wanted to poke fun at his expense. Tidus did, but, stifled such intent when he saw the overdrawn expression shared between his two friends.
“There are more out there, so, many more . . . worlds. I know . . . I-I remember them.”
“Kai, you’ve been having ‘em again, the dreams, ya?” She nodded but even at her own admitted fact did not want to believe them as just part of her imagination.Even now, she could see it, as bright as it was, out there, darkness loomed. And, those around her felt like seashells, taking the place of those that were once part of the sand, only to be stolen by the tides.
Is this…really all there is? She wondered.
“Cheer up okay,” Wakka grinned his wide grin. “Tidus over there, can’t stand to see a girl cry.” He smirked and stared down at the shorter of them. “I think it’s ‘cuz he is one, ya know? Just a big crybaby himself.”
Kairi laughed. She giggled and for a few moments, forgot again. The boy still had no name, and, as she would probably never admit to herself, when, everything came to change, she wanted to forget, because, it was too painful to half remember.
This is a new sample I wrote just now, so, it should be nowhere else.

The reviews are making this game out to be one of the best horror games ever made. I've gotta say, I love the features I've read about. Always seeing your hands, feet etc. Being able to glance over your shoulder while running. All little features that could add up to something great, which they do if the reviews are to be believed. Only £15 on Steam, likely gonna get it when I get home.
