Long ago, an ancient superweapon, capable of shaping worlds, changing the laws of physics, and even influencing life and death, was lost. It was another casualty of a world-shattering war, that saw the deployment of indescribable horrors and carnage on a galactic scale. Its name was Sifuri, and, as the ashes settled on the remains of cities and combatants, it was decided that some things were best forgotten, and Sifuri faded from memory as its creators set about rebuilding and reconstuituting all that had turned to ashes. For billions of years, Sifuri lay abandoned and alone on a distant world, safely out of the ands of its creators and never to be used again.
But now, things are beginning to change. The embers of war are begining to stir. A powerful force looms on the horizon, and Sifuri may be all that stands between it and the destruction of its creators. Two criminals, seeking to atone for their misdeeds, assemble two competing teams- one based around the supernatural, the the other around the scientific- to recover the artefact. It will be a long and perilous quest across the multiverse to recover Sifuri... but will the forces of magic or science prevail?

Hello once more, and welcome to the signup thread for A Game Of Gods: Taskforce Sifuri. Now, the first thing that you're probably wondering is why exactly we need another spinoff. The answer is that this was initially going to be a plot in the current Infinities game, but due to my worry that the mini-epic would would take too long, I decided to spin it off into its own game. That said, this game is extremely close to Infinities, moreso than TOTG was to the original AGOG. Because of that, there will be several crossovers between the two. Besides that, all the same rules in AGOG, and general RPing etiquette should apply.

Signups
Naturally, the biggest 'gimmick', so to speak, of this RP is the fact that characters who have science-based powers are pitted against those who have magic based powers. I'm really hoping for even teams for this, so if we have too many people on one side than some people may be given control of a second character for the opposite team. Characters who use both magic and science, such as Magitek, will be admitted on a case-by-case basis.
- Name: (self-explanatory)
- Universe: (series they come from)
- Background: (brief bio of their past, motivations, etc.)
- Powers: (What they can do- keep it between 1-3 on the Super Weight scale)
- Personality: (Also self-explanatory).
The game itself may not open for a while, so don't hold your breath. This is a way of seeing how may people want to sign up.

Eh, that was just my sort of casual speak, there. Not too formal, there.
But if it's a real bother, I'll stop.

I'm generally very quickly annoyed by textspeak. The rules of writing are not arbitrary.
Eh, no worries. Just be sure to punctuate in the actual in game posts.
Still, doesn't this amp up our expectations for the eventual Sifuri, Eclipse Crossover?
@Trip: Heya. troydenite, sub-GM, at your service. Thanks for taking an interest in our game. Now, there *was* a Joseph Joestar in Sifuri a while back, played by Oni-Lord. If he's dropped the character, then you're welcome to have him. If not, I'm afraid you'll have to find another character - though I don't think there should be a problem. It was a very long time ago. Go ahead and write the signup, but it might be helpful if you kept an alternative in mind. 
@Vox: Accepted.
huzzaaaaaaaah
Oni-Lord dropped Joseph, so much so that he has two completley different characters now.
You're welcome to sign up as him. I don't mean to rush ya, but I've got plans to include any new characters in the Sifuri challenge pretty soon.

-Rubs hands-
-Goes to think about Hanzo's style-
Hmm... that may make things a bit difficult, actually. I'd rather estabalish p#r3$# new relationships, and since I'm fairly certain that someone is still playing a character that knew the little jojo, they'd be able to recognize him.
'Course, I could just play Old Joeseph. Or maybe Ragna the Bloodedge.
decisions, ahhhh
Did you know this section has a character limit?
We have a policy that if a character is dropped, and not much has been done with them, we pretend they never existed. The previous Joseph Joestar is no exception.
They do have medals for almost, and they're called silver!
Ahh, okay. Thanks for clarifying!
I think that was around the time I just dropped everything and took a long break from AGOG. I'm pretty sure I didn't do much with Jojo, so don't worry about any previous happenings. I will be judging you harshly though, as a Jojo fanboy. 
Well, that could complicate things if I ever do get to come back.
"Yup. That tasted purple."
Oh? Who were you playing as?
Guessing Sayaka
Anyway, before I finish me sheet, let me get things straight: Two sides are against each other to get a Super Mega Weapon. And from what I know of AGOG, it's structured in a form of "challenges". Does that apply here?
Vampire Hunter
I've played her before, but not in this.
Then again neither of my characters really went into the "didn't really do anything" pile.
"Yup. That tasted purple."
Sayaka?
Tell that to the other person running around with the Sayaka Avatar :3
seyiku ;_;
Also my nose is all congested and my eyes are screaming so

Wow Sayaka is very popular. My personal favorite was Mami and then Homura, But then again I only watched season 1 of Madoka.

Forgiveness is beyond justice, faith is superior than hope, redemption is better than perfection and love is greater than them all.
THERE WAS ONLY ONE SEASON

And a movie
Forgiveness is beyond justice, faith is superior than hope, redemption is better than perfection and love is greater than them all.
We do not speak of the movie.

Was it so bad?

Annoyed Mode: ON
On a sudden change of mind, I decided to join this rp as well.
- Name: Chaika Trabant
- Universe: Hitsugime no Chaika
- Background: After the death of her father,Emperor Gaz, Chaika set herself the goal of collecting his scattered remains, in order to give him a proper funeral. Some of her memories previous to that event seem to be lost.
- Powers: Chaika can cast a lot of spells with aid of a magic-fueled sniper rifle which she connects to her own neck. Some of the effects of those spells involve: burning, slashing, locating objects, floating, nullifying magic on a target, creating a blinding light, nullifying sound, crushing, poisoning, and even boiling.
- Personality: Optimistic and with a noble heart, Chaika is a loyal girl, and is willing to do all in her power to keep any promises that she makes. However, she gets frightened quite easily, and can be clumsy sometimes. A couple oddities about her are her broken speech pattern and her sensitivity regarding the thickness of her eyebrows. She also tends to try using her magic to attempt cooking, often with bad results.
- Team: Magic
Also... it probably was that bad.

huzzaaaaaaaah
I'm gonna need some more info on the magic... how exactly does it work? What does it have to do to affect someone? Just how strong those spells are?
Uh, if it's not too hard, can you please punctuate? And capitalise?
