Demonuru FIGHT! Welcome to Demonuru!

I assume a lot of you, like myself, grew up watching anime exported to America/Europe to sell merchandise, such as Pokemon, Bakugan, or Beyblade. Occasionally the first season or two of one of those shows was good, but they always ended up hilariously bad, if they didn't start out that way. Demonuru is an RP set in a show like that (the hilariously bad variety), and you are a character!

You are a teenager living in the metropolis of Kings City or one of its suburbs. It is home to such famous landmarks as the Imperial Tower and the Monument to Freedom. You lived a relatively normal life, until the Demonuru showed up.

Demonuru are monsters that guide the forces of nature, and belong to one of five Spheres: Flame, Wind, Forest, Ocean, and Stone. They have existed for the entire history of the world, but until now, they hid themselves from the rest of the planet, silently watching as history unfolded. But something has stirred them, and now they attack any human they see. Thankfully, they live in mostly rurual areas, and do not aggressively go out looking for humans. The few who tried to attack them have found that guns and other weapons barely hurt Demonuru, and should they assault a city it would not survive. However, an enterprising scientist has discovered something that may turn things around.

That scientist, Dr. Birsch, has invented the Friendship Beam. It is a device strapped on to the wrist, and if it is used on a Demonuru, it becomes friendly to the human who used it. The only problem is, a Demonuru must be severely weakened for it to work. As the only way to weaken a Demonuru is for another Demonuru to defeat it, Birsch was about to give up when he heard rumors of teens who had befriended pro-human Demonuru. He posted flyers around the city, looking for people to come to his lab. You are one of them, and Dr. Birsch is about to make a speech...

  • Demonuru Battle System
The five Demonuru Spheres are Flame, Wind, Forest, Stone, and Ocean. They are organized into a pentagram.

  • Red - Flame
  • Light Blue - Wind
  • Green - Forest
  • Gray - Stone
  • Dark Blue - Ocean

Each Sphere is strong against the two clockwise of it, and weak against the two counterclockwise. For example, Fire is strong against Wind and Forest, and weak to Stone and Ocean.

All Demonuru have certain Powers that can be used in battle. While they can be activated by just commanding the Demonuru, most Demonuru Fighters record the effects of Demonurus' powers on index cards, in the form of Power Cards. The cards themselves have no magical powers, they just serve as a way to remember Powers.

Sign-up Sheet Example (Remember, this is a Take That! at battle monster shows.):

  • Name: Aaron Saito
  • Age: 15
  • Gender: Male
  • Appearance: Spiky dirty blond hair, but not as spiky as certain other anime characters. Brown eyes and a lean build.
  • Backstory/Personality: Aaron grew up in the suburbs of Kings City, and lived what he describes as "the most normal of all lives." He is a decently popular guy at school, and he's on the basketball team. He's actually pretty cautious, but he can be on the offensive when he needs to.
  • Demonuru Partner Name: Pyropteryx (nickname Optie)
  • Partner Sphere: Flame
  • Partner Appearance: A giant hawk with flames where his tail should be.
  • Partner Personality: Optie is a Demonuru who sometimes doesn't think before he acts, but when he does he is fearless in battle.

Can we base our partner monster with Digimon or Pokemon? I'm thinking of using Renamon or Eevee.

Oh right, you should probably fix the formating for your example sign up there. If you put a * at the start of a line, it makes a bullet point.

  • Like
  • So
...But yeah, hmmm... Will try to come up with an idea, then.

Edited. I'm new to these forums, but not forums in general or R Ping. I'll have to get used to the fact that there's no BB Code here.

Hey, don't worry about it. You pick it up quickly enough. Hope you enjoy your stay here~!

Yeah! I started sucky at this, too, so don't forget to read the mark-up and crap.

Huh. I should start.

  • Name: Bailey Hisami
  • Age: 17
  • Gender: Female
  • Appearance: Dark blue hair and cat-like black eyes, she loves wearing shorts and short sleeved shirt. Probably showing off her lean arms and great physique, eh? Bailey covers her slender legs with thigh high socks because they were filled with scratch marks from hiking and running a marathon. Since she's athletic, how do track members do their hair? That's right! A ponytail~! She even got that bandage on her nose to do the image, but she's propping up her image to fool people that she's just a body-obsessed meathead. Which is far further from the truth.
  • Backstory/Personality: She's strong, loud and meddlesome. But don't get fooled: underneath she's hiding her vulnerable side, being easily frightened and wanting to change things that she cannot. If she can't change things, she'd throw a fit and then cry. Her father were on the verge of suicide since he had a hard time finding satisfaction with the marriage, and being religious, didn't want to divorce his wife. After having a fight over her only daughter getting into extracurricular activities and going home late, her father drove to a psychiatrist to talk about his issues over wanting to fix his family, thinking the reason Bailey did that was to avoid her parents, which is further from the truth. He died along the way, and her mom constantly blamed her about it even when it was her fault for making him unhappy by being too controlling. As a result, she blamed herself and then wanted people to always get along, to the point of befriending two enemies and then making them work together, because the image of her parents constantly fighting traumatized her.
  • Demonuru Partner Name: Fox caster
    • A spellcasting Renamon that could summon vines, use Synthesis, solarbeam? and razor leaves.
      • Nickname: Lily
  • Partner Sphere: Forest
  • Partner Appearance: Cutie.
  • Partner Personality: She, despite being small for a Fox, is tough and quick to anger. She can summon strong attacks if you spite her, a complete opposite to the kind partner she had. She isn't forgiving and holds grudges, thinking of way to sought out revenge.

I suck at names. XD

Obvious ripoffs are fine in this case, but not direct copies. Try something else.

Eh. Okay, would probably fix how she looks like. I'm going for a kitsune look as a partner.

I'll try to make a profile!grin

• Name: Marina Kinjo

• Age: 15

• Gender: Female

• Appearance: Long brown hair and large, dark blue eyes. She’s short for her age, only about 5 feet tall. Often wears a heavy jacket that makes her look chubbier than she actually is. Also wears a pair of jeans. She always wears her swimsuit underneath her clothing.

• Backstory/Personality: Marina and her family lived in the suburbs of Kings City for most of her life. She was always a shy girl, making it very hard for her to make friends of any kind. In an attempt to make her more outgoing, her parents pushed her out the house one day and told her to stay outside until she found a friend. Marina came back to the house with a Demonuru. They decided to let her keep it after they saw how strongly she cared about it. After that, Marina became more self confident in her opinions and actions.

• Demonuru Partner Name: Plesiosaur (nickname is Nami)

• Partner Sphere: Ocean

• Partner Appearance: A dark blue, long necked reptile with flippers for limbs. She has a spiked shell on her back and a long dolphin tail. Roughly the size of a pony.

• Partner Personality: Acts violent towards perceived opponents, but is gentle around Marina. Warms up to people quickly, however.

Starting a discussion thread now, and I'll get the main RP thread set up when we have Wind and Stone characters.

Oh, each monster has to be a different element?

...Sorry, the only thing I can think of using is fire, so... I'll just take back my reservation since I can't think of anything else. Sorry for wasting your time like that.

They don't absolutely HAVE to be one of the different elements, otherwise we'd be limited to 5 characters. You could still have a Flame Demonuru and be in, you'd just have a slightly smaller role. I'm waiting for Wind and Stone characters to start for plot elements.

Hmmm, well... The character I had in mind was more of a supporting role type character, so... We'll see, I guess. Hmmm.
