    Default Persona: The Dark age OOC (M)

    Rated M for Violence, adult content and situations, as well as foul language.


    PERSONA: THE DARK AGE

    It began with a disorder known as Apathy Syndrome, then a series of Grisly murders, followed by other events that no man could ever explain. Then...it happened. In 2015, a hole in the sky was torn open by an unseen force, and unleashed upon the world a flood of unnameable horrors. The world's mightiest countries and armies could do nothing, their weapons were useless against these shadow beasts.

    It was then, when all hope was lost, that a man, emanating golden radiance, with a face that was youthful, and yet ages old appeared at the head of an army, an army of children, ranging from teenagers to middle-schoolers. The shadow beasts descended upon them, but were driven back by the strange power the Golden man and his army wielded. A power that was created from the very force of consciousness itself...Persona.

    Using their Personas, the Shadow beasts were held at bay while mankind recovered. Much of the planet was lost, and few remained that remembered a time before the war. However, the Golden man was no fool, and he knew many things. Under his guidance, many cities were rebuilt, and given greater technology than they had before the war, and it was thought a new age would begin, with the Golden Man as their leader.

    They were partly right, a new age was to begin...an age of Darkness. For, unbeknownst to even their saviour, a group of humans succumbed to the whispers of darkness and were changed. A new breed of humans had been created, the Shade-touched. A rebellion began, as the Shade-touched raged as their new powers boiled through them, a great battle was fought where once Rome stood, and the forces of humanity prevailed...but at high cost. The Golden man was mortally wounded, and, sensing this, the Shadow beasts surged forth once again, and began to consumed the world.

    As his last act of defiance, The Golden Man ordered he be brought to the deepest basement of the tower he used as a palace. There, it was found a device, unlike any seen before. The Golden man, under his orders, was hooked to this device. Just as the darkness reached the borders of this city, a pules of light emanated from the apex of the tower, driving it back and forming a shield around the city. The darkness could not pierce this barrier, and being near it, fled. Humanity was saved once again, but their saviour was now forever locked in this machine, not alive, yet unable to die. He writhes invisibly with power, keeping up the barrier that protects the last city.


    Now, Hundreds of years later, The age of Darkness is in full swing. it is the dawn of the 3rd millennium, for centuries, the Golden Man, now deified as the God of mankind, has sat, immobile on his throne, keeping up the defenses that protect his people. Guarding these people are the ASDF, the Anti-Shadow Defense Force. They are armed and equipped with the best weapons available, but even with all their power and all their training, all they can do is truly keep the darkness at bay. To live in these times is to be in an overpopulated and crowded hive, where your darkest dreams can become reality. Forget the power of Science and Technology, for so much has been lost, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim darkness of this time, there is only death, and unending battle, and the laughter of thirsting horrors.

    You actually combined Persona with 40k...

    At least, that's what I have gathered from skimming through your opening post.

    Eh, it's taking the intro from Persona 3, and injecting the rest with an apocalyptic Shin Megami Tensei feel. *shrug*
    Be wary of paramilitaries. When the men with guns who have always claimed to be against the system start wearing uniforms and marching around with torches and pictures of a Leader, the end is nigh. When the pro-leader paramilitary and the official police and military intermingle, the end has come.

    I'm glad you like it. I also referenced 4 with the 'grisly murders' bit.

    My character (this being a GMPC, not a regular PC) will likely be a human of the Devil arcana.

    I have a Moon persona human in the works!

    - - - - -

    And here she is

    Name: Jackie Suno

    Age: 16

    Race: Human

    Appearance:
    Spoiler: Jackie 


    Personality: Jackie is a closet lesbian, scared to come out. Because of this she tries to hide it by forcing herself to get close to boys/men. However, when it gets down to it she can't bring herself to do anything more than hold hands or hug them. Her reputation has taken a hit from this, some males calling her a frigid person. On the contrary, Jackie is a very kind person that is usually willing to help with anything. Her smile may not be something that lights up a room, but it's something to keep hearts warm. In a fight she keeps at a distance with her bow and takes up a supporting role in keeping her allies covered rather than going all in on offence.

    Weapons:
    Spoiler: Bow 


    - - -

    Persona name: Diana

    Persona Appearance:
    Spoiler: Diana 


    Persona Arcana: Moon

    Persona Elemental weaknesses and resistances: Weak- Fire, Wind. Null- Ice

    Persona Special skills and spells: Skewer, Bufu

    I am the blade of shadows embrace. Just because I am a user of an unholy power doesn't make me evil. For without light, a shadow cannot exist.
