INHABITANTS OF FANTASIA

Imaginandi: Imaginandi are humans who have lost touch with reality in the real world. Their disassociation with the real world has resulted in a relative rift forming in the real world, pulling that person into Fantasia. Freshly "Born" Imaginandi are often confused and terrified. Their first few moments in Fantasia are as Impotens, and will determine if they will become a Magni or an Invalidum, or remain Impotens.

Imaginandi Magnus: Magni are the rarest kind of Imaginandi in Fantasia, numbering no more than a couple dozen. Very few of these Imaginandi are influential in the world, as a great portion of them keep to themselves, living out their fantasy lives in the many outlying realms surrounding the city. Magni are capable of quite a few things: They are able to materialize weapons before them, exactly as they imagine them. They can summon up other objects on a whim and even produce food with their mind. They can even create Figments as allies on the fly. In addition, Magni are capable of almost instantaneous transit between two locations via dark portals affectionately dubbed "The High Road" by its travelers.

While there are many Magni who strive to do good, known as Deis (Singular: Deus) by the Figments of Fantasia, there are many others who would use their newfound abilities to rule over the weaker inhabitants of the world. These individuals are known as Daemons, and are locked in an eternal secret war with the Deis. This is partially the cause for the significant lack of Magni in Fantasia in the 21st Century. The strongest Daemon form a group known as Septem Horribilis.

Imaginandi Impotens: Impotensi are the most common group of humans in Fantasia. They enter the world the same as any other Imaginandi: They fall out of the sky. The first thing they notice upon impacting with the ground is that they are perfectly fine, which is understandably... not normal. However, upon getting their bearings and learning more about the world in which they now reside, they begin to learn that they are not quite so like the Magni of which they hear so much about. While Impotensi are capable of creating small, everyday objects and food, they are incapable of producing weapons or Figments in Fantasia, or utilizing The High Road.

Impotensi are more or less typical human beings within Fantasia, with no real outstanding abilities as far as Imaginandi go. The reason they lack much of the power that the Magni possess is due to a lack of willpower, or a weakness in imaginative strength. Impotensi, however, can become Magni if they put forth the effort. Alternatively, if they allow themselves to lose touch with even this reality, they will become Invalidumi.

Imaginandi Invalidum: Invalidumi are not quite as common as Impotensi. However, they riddle the sides of roads throughout Fantasia. They often resemble insane homeless-folk, not dissimilar to the cliched tin-foil-hat-hobos of Hollywood. Invalidumi have completely lost their minds, and have rejected the reality of this world in exchange for living in their own little fantasies within their mind. Unfortunately for them, their physical bodies remain in Fantasia. In addition to this, some Invalidum are unpredictable and potentially dangerous, as some were actually powerful enough to become Magni, but rejected Fantasia before that could happen. The result is something of a mix between a crazed, blithering bum, and a god, which can lead to chaos in and of itself.

Figments: 99% of Fantasia is made up of Figments: Creations of the human mind in the Real World, or of Magni within Fantasia. These Figments come in a plethora of different shapes and sizes and colors. A number of them are children's imaginary friends, while some may be the dreamings of lonely people on a cold night. Any sort of "being" that is thought up within the Real World is given form and matching personality within Fantasia. However, if that creation has been given recognizable form in the real world, it ceases to be in Fantasia. (No, that doesn't mean you can play as touhou characters. No, that doesn't mean you can play as Mario, ST64.)

PLOT

Fantasia is a semi-story driven roleplay. Which means there is a central plot that will go on with or without your characters. This means a couple things. For instance: If you are engaged in a lengthy battle that's important to the plot, and you're Wonderweiss, I will intervene in the battle however I deem necessary as a means to getting the story moving. Whether that means killing your character (which will be reserved for REPEAT OFFENDERS....) or having a combat-figment jump in, or even Deus himself is dependent on the situation and my mood at the time.

The Story itself is one really long episode of COPS, with a couple episodes of Criminal Minds taking up the Commercial Segments. Or something like that. Deus is basically the only existing "police force" for Fantasia at this time. As such, he is a very busy man, doing his best to Batman his way through the city while still being an approachable and pleasant guy to hang out around. His work will generally entail intervening in the Turf War between "God", "Yahweh" and "Allah," also known as the Big Three: Mafia Bosses within Fantasia, and attempting to thwart the efforts of the Septem Horribilis.

Your characters can have their own stuff going on. Surely, this will occasionally intersect with what's going on in the primary plot. Alternatively, you can become heavily involved in the main plot. There's not any real Doomsday situation in this like in EG or ATWAG. Just a secret war and constant Mafia war.

Here is a picture to give you a general idea of what the City looks like, in tandem with the World's End Dancehall city.

**Kilelicus** · 09-21-2015, 11:38 PM

Name: Dahlia

Sex: Female

Race (Imaginandi Magnus/Impotens|Figment): Imaginandi Impotens

Physical Age (Actual Age Optional, provided they're older than they look): 17

Favored Weapon: Deus. Just Deus.

History:

Spoiler: There's some dark, triggering shit in here, so if you're a gigantic pussy from tumblr, please leave.

Spoiler: No seriously, I'm not pulling punches, you've been warned.

Dahlia is a young girl from a small town in western New York. She had always lived a rather content life in the countryside, at least... until she had made it to middle school. Before then, Dahlia had always been regarded as a bright and outgoing child, but once she had entered middle school, things changed. She began withdrawing herself from the other children. Her family and teachers initially (And correctly) suspected bullying. It came with the territory of being an adolescent. Everything from ostracization to name-calling to food-throwing, rumor-spreading, trust-breaking, and so on. Dahlia was subjected to all of it, every single day.

The torment that she received on a daily basis turned the usually cheerful and friendly Dahlia of the prior 9-10 years into a silent recluse, who wanted nothing to do with other people, for fear of being hurt yet again. Dahlia's time at home was spent in solitude for three long years. Then came High School. Dahlia decided that it was time for a change. As such, she told herself that she would be more outgoing, more interactive. And she became so, making friends with several of her classmates. For a time, things were good. Until one fateful night...

One night, in the middle of winter, Dahlia was woken by the sound of someone plowing through the door. She heard her parents immediately head downstairs to inspect what was going on. At first, her groggy mind thought it was her brother coming home from work late, drunk out of his mind. And then she heard gun shots. Followed by her Mother's screaming, which was abruptly cut short by yet another shot. Dahlia, terrified, grabbed her cell phone and crawled underneath her bed and prayed that she would not be found. As she kept an ear to the floor, she heard the intruders rummaging around the house, all the while dialing 911 and hoping for a quick response.

As she reported what was going on, she could hear one of the intruders making their way upstairs, she begged the dispatcher to hurry in sending help and went silent, hoping the intruder would move on. If only she had been so lucky. The intruder immediately turned into her room and looked around. It wasn't long before he found her, shivering beneath her bed. He called down to his companion and it wasn't long before the two were having their way with the petrified girl. Her parents dead and her brother nowhere to be found, Dahlia was completely at their mercy, and was now being violated. She began to shut down, dropping into semi-consciousness, and she retreated to the back of her mind until everything ended.

After about 10 minutes in her own personal hell, she noticed something out of the corner of her eye: her brother sneaking into her room. The light was still off, and he was stepping silently. He held an aluminum bat in his hand and looked at her, gesturing to stay quiet. Dahlia's brain shut down again, and she didn't wake up until the morning. In her unconsciousness, her brother had beaten the intruders to death with his bat, and the authorities had arrived. Several ambulances had arrived with them. Dahlia was moved to the local hospital, where she had awoken. A dead expression in her eyes, Dahlia was still in mental retreat, and remained that way for the rest of the school year, never leaving home, and never being without her brother around to protect her.

Dahlia's brother struggled for an entire year to help rehabilitate Dahlia's mental state, and eventually, he began making progress. She started going back to school, but when her classmates had heard about a home invasion turning into a double homicide and a rape, and Dahlia's subsequent absence from school for an extensive length of time, they put two and two together and got the perfect ammunition for her bullies to use against her. Whenever she is reminded of those events, Dahlia retreats to the back of her mind once more, becoming catatonic. Eventually, she had been tormented to the point that she completely rejected reality.

Then, in the middle of a school hallway, Dahlia left the real world.

Personality: Dahlia is a typical, embittered and snarky teenager. Friendliness is not a foreign concept to her, but her experiences in life have turned her into a cynic and a nihilist. Deus plans on changing this by empowering her with Magnus abilities and rehabilitating her through extended interaction.

Appearance:

Spoiler: Appearance

Strengths: While Dahlia is currently an Impotens, she has great imaginative capability, and an unwavering sense of justice that sometimes errs on the side of anti-heroism.

Weaknesses: Dahlia may have inherited a the abilities of an Imaginandi, but her mind is still scarred by what had happened to her not even a year ago. This means that Dahlia is susceptible to PTSD episodes whenever she is reminded of that terrible night. Despite her sense of justice, Dahlia is not a fighter. Before she can take her dispensing of justice into her own hands, Deus will be teaching and training her, acting as her guide.

Note:

Theme

**Kilelicus** · 09-21-2015, 11:39 PM

As it stands, this is gonna be Deus's App. More or less a copypasta of his EG App, for reasons.

Name: Deus

Gender: Male

Physical Age: 24 (Actual Age: 1100+ years)

Appearance:

Spoiler: Image

Race: Imaginandi Magnus

Profession: Private Investigator / Defender of Fantasia

Talents: Is able to create objects simply from his imagination, within certain limitations of power, size, and probability based on what universe he exists in. Is able to travel through portals of darkness to reach destinations. If he doesn't know where he's going, he can end up anywhere.

Favored Weapon:

Spoiler:

Personality: Deus, at first glance, has a rather rough exterior. Seeming almost emotionless at first. However, take a closer look and it's painfully obvious what kind of mood he's in. He has the most subtly predictable poker face in the world. To the indiscerning eye, his appearance of joviality may be taken as discontent. In all honesty, Deus is one of the most friendly Imaginandi that have ever existed, not that many of them exist in the first place.

History: Deus was once a young boy, living in 10th century Earth. A young boy that had been born a quadriplegic. He lived his life in isolation, except for the exposure he had to his family, whom could not bring themselves to take his life. He had all the time he could have ever wanted, but could only ever use it to rest. So he rested. And he dreamed. And dreamed. And dreamed. Eventually, his imagination took control of his life. He began to lose touch with reality. As this went on, Deus's existence drifted ever closer to the metaphysical world of Fantasia. In this world, all manner of otherworldly creatures existed. All of them born from the imaginations of men. These creatures were called Figments. And they were very real.

When Deus was finally pulled into the world of Fantasia by his own lack of touch with reality, he fell. Like most humans that end up in Fantasia, he fell from the ceiling. As he fell, he could see a city below. It was not incredibly large, but it was larger than any town he had ever been taken to or heard of. It excited him. The excitement was short-lived, however, as Deus could not maneuver his body somewhere safe to land, and thus fell headfirst into the cobbled streets of Fantasia. He was immediately knocked unconscious.

After a few hours, he awoke. He instinctively moved his hand to his head, to feel a goose-egg that had been formed from the fall. It was then that he realized two things. First: He had just moved his arm for the first time in his life. Second: He had no earthly idea who he was. As time went on, he took on a job, began to work towards bettering the city of Fantasia, so on and so forth.

Bio: Deus is a Human, yes. But he fell into Fantasia. And like and human that falls into Fantasia, he immediately became an Imaginandi: A human who could manifest their own imaginations right before them. Unlike most true Imaginandi, though, he was the first, and he was also the only one to rightly lose his identity. As such, while displaying his abilities, the people of Fantasia began to call him "Deus," as he seemed a god-like figure to them. There are other Imaginandi like him, but they number fewer than twenty, and many of them are vile individuals, using their abilities for personal gain. These Imaginandi are colloquially known by the Figments of Fantasia as Daemons, while those who use their abilities to help others are known as Deis.

There exist other Imaginandi that number far greater than the Daemons and Deis, but they have either not retained the ability to manifest their imaginations, or they have simply gone mad in their ravings and can't even function as human beings. The former are called Imaginandi Impotens, while the latter are called Imaginandi Invalidum.

Notes: The portals that he travels through are passageways loosely linked to Fantasia, and as such work based on the user's imagination. Time passes far slower there than in the real world, so a century in reality can be a single day in Fantasia.

Powerful enough, and disciplined Imaginandi are capable of passing between Fantasia and the Real World whenever they please.

Character application for Fantasia. Weeee!!!

Name: Yosho Ki'Sing

Sex: Male

Race (Imaginandi Magnus/Impotens|Figment): Imaginandi Impotens (Human)

Physical Age (Actual Age Optional, provided they're older than they look): 19

Favored Weapon: Nightsplitter* -- Thin, sharp greatsword.

History:
Yosho Ki'Sing is a legendary figure on his home world. His skill with a blade, despite being at such a tender age, is unmatched, and he's credited for personally ending the war-between two major City-States. While most of his credited fame comes from happenstance he still is blessed with the gift of getting up, and going out to do something. After Ending the War between the two city-states, Yosho was married to a daughter of his rivaling state as a political arrangement, much to his dismay. He doesn't care for politics, as they're slow, and get things done less efficiently than stabbing and slashing.

While engaged, Yosho had to sit around for months, waiting for propaganda, and word of mouth to carry his "Victory" to the other city-states to make it seem like he did indeed bring the City of Grey's Mark to its knees, instead of stumble into a surprise wedding. During this time, it was suggested by his friend, (who just so happened to also be employed in Grey's Mark's military, that Lying, a**hole!!!) he undergo a "Quest". Where do you find quests? A Tavern! While this was simply a means to attempt to get the young man drunk, Yosho picked up on the first bit of information they were presented with. Grey's Mark's formation was when the Sword Nightsplitter fell from the sky like a heavenly bolt of divine righteousness, sundering the earth for kilometers and making the large chasm it was now. Yosho desided that was good enough as any to be a quest, and the two men went down into the deepest portions of the city, sword the sword was indeed found, simply laying there.

Yosho now came into possession of a divine relic that was once the chosen weapon of the Angel of Balance, Tahi Relle. But what did that mean to him? He didn't care for the religious banter of other people. He just wanted to go home where things were familiar. He would spend hours upon hours simply training with his new sword, Nightsplitter. Something about the blade felt "correct". His betrothed suggested it was because the weapon was a divine relic, and when she held the blade herself she agreed it was comfortable, but seemed to lack the connection with the blade Yosho had. It got to the point where Yosho would sometimes forget he had the blade with him--rather, he knew it was there, but did not consider it a blade. It was like an extension of himself. Others around him attested to the fact that, unless he was wielding it as a blade, they too would simply forget about it being worn on his back. It had become a part of him.

Days before the marriage, his betrothed suggested he choose a Angel to bless and sanctify their wedding. She knew Yosho wouldn't care for something like that, but she wanted him to be involved, or at least give the bewildered boy a chance to be. It was traditional for Angels of Corris, the Goddess of Harmony and Life, to offer their blessing at a wedding. Yosho didn't know any Angels besides the Angel of Dreams, and the Angel of Balance--both of which did not speak to mortals, or so people thought until Yosho suggested Tahi be the one to offer her blessing. As if an afront to the world trying to tell him he couldn't do it, Yosho sought out an audience with the Angel of Dreams, who he'd seen before as a child. He knew that a mortal couldn't speak with Tahi, but maybe Cataminei could? Certainly, the Sleeping Angel could speak freely with Tahi, and through several meetings, the religious bombshell was dropped that Tahi Relle gave her blessing to Yosho of Klaime and Juhani of Grey's Mark's wedding.

However, the religious upheaval and circumstances around that don't matter. This is a story about Fantasia. Yosho comes to find that, en route, for lack of a better term, to see Cataminei, he spends a portion of time somewhere that is not his home world, or Cataminei's Dream World. Cataminei suggests maybe he has been traveling through it all along, and its nothing to worry about, but Yosho, being the worry-wart he is, decides to explore, and understand this traveling process, or circumstance. As he spends more time simply waiting, he begins to wonder about the world he lives in more, prompting him to ask Cataminei more questions about it. The more questions he asks, the more he visits Fantasia, for longer and longer until one time, he remembers the world.

Personality: Despite his youth, Yosho is stoic and bland. Years of Fighting and war have robbed him of his childhood, and he doesn't seem to see anything wrong with this. He's most comfortable with a sword in his hands, particularly Nightsplitter. He's a bit of a smart ass when dealing with things he either doesn't care about or doesn't like, due to his "friend's" personality rubbing off on him over the years. He's Hard working and motivated to help others, usually disregarding his own sanity and health to achieve those means.

Appearance: Yosho is a young, short man with brown hair that is usually kept well, but can easily become disheveled by his lifestyle. In his world, he is seen wearing armor, or a military grade jacket; tight, movement restricting things that remind you you're wearing them. He is always seen with Nightsplitter. Either in hand, or worn on his person. He's fairly handsome, currently retaining some of that boyish charm while taking strides into manhood. His flat personality general gives him that "serious warrior" look.

In Fantasia, Yosho remains the same, except that he is without armor, and Nightsplitter is only half-way there. The veiwer would be able to note that no sword is actually there, but would confirm that not only does he move like the sword is actually there, but its very presence seems to warn that the boy isn't unarmed. Yosho is completely unaware (At first, at least) that, when not physically holding Nightsplitter, it is not actually there. When he reaches back to grab it, it materializes to be grabbed. When he sheathes it, it fades away as its no longer needed.

Strenghts: Yosho's one true strength relies in his ability to swing a sword, and swing a sword pretty damn well. He is unimaginably quick and skillful with a blade, and that was before receiving Nightsplitter. The Thin, razor sharp sword only seems to compliment his abilities as a swordsman.

Nightsplitter has become so much a part of Yosho in his own mind that, despite being simply Impotens, Yosho can materialize Nightsplitter.

Weaknesses:
Yosho's one true strength is swordsmanship....and not much else. He is unskilled with Magic, logic puzzles, doesn't care about politics or the thought processes involved, and has no idea how anything works outside the tip of his blade. He's been a warrior and a soldier for most of his teenage and adult life, leaving his mind and skills cloistered and unrefined.

While he can materialize Nightsplitter, his utter disregard for himself and his own desires makes it impossible for him to bring about anything else. It could be questioned that perhaps Nightsplitter is bringing itself into existence, and not Yosho bringing it.

*Nightplitter: Nightsplitter is the sword once used by Tahi Relle, before it was discarded in favor of a different, more efficient blade. Despite being discard, the sword is made from the same divinity that made the Angel of balance, and it can never truly be lost or destroyed. It is made from pure divinity; it cannot be destroyed or warped beyond what the Angel of Balance herself deems acceptable. Its razor sharp edge never dulls, and despite being simply iron, is incredibly light. Physical analysis of the sword would reveal it to simply be a sword made of common iron. Unless the divinity of the object was somehow measured, the sword doesn't hint at how, or why it defies what should be physically possible.

This doesn't mean is can do the impossible, however. If wedged between to objects to pry them free, it might simply punch a hole in one of the objects if they are so firmly stuck together. Its inability to be changed can be a detriment, as well. If Yosho, for example, has his size changed, Nightsplitter will not change with him. Divine Authorities (Beings such as God(earth) or someone who has authority over the divine law of that universe) can--and know they can--ask Nightsplitter to "leave" temporarily, and the blade will Vanish. This is because Nightsplitter is part of Tahi Relle, the Angel of Balance. If she has any degree of respect for the petitioning being, she will accept as she has no jurisdiction outside of her own universe.

**Kilelicus** · 09-24-2015, 11:41 PM

Since we've already elaborated upon any and all discrepancies, Yosho Ki'Sing is Okay'd

Accepted.

**Lunasa Prismriver** · 09-25-2015, 02:08 AM

Oh boy, Lunasa's back in the RP section again, take cover. In any case, I want in on this one.

Spoiler: Joel Arken

Spoiler: Avi

Wow, this was way longer than I was hoping for. I also seem to have wandered too far and possibly broken a few boundaries already. Tell me what you think and I'll fix it if necessary.

**Kilelicus** · 09-25-2015, 01:22 PM

I don't know that I would call Fantasia a beautiful world... It may be an imaginary world, but it's literally the COLLECTIVE human imagination, and some people have really fucked up imaginations.

There are some issues I would like to address before I accept this. As it stands, Joel and Avi are good, but they're not quite excepted yet.

As an Impotens, Joel will not be able to materialize a weapon. Yosho is an exception to this rule due to his strong "I-Am-One-With-My-Sword" bond with Nightsplitter, and also its omniversal nature. If Joel is going to have a knife or a polearm, he's either going to need another Magnus to materialize it for him when they're not using their own weapon, or buy a knife. Polearms aren't exactly a commodity in Fantasia.

I like the implications that you may or may not have intended to make in Joel's history. That he was so out of touch with reality that he thought Avi was real, and was pushing his Wheelchair, despite not actually being there. The fact that he was hallucinating the whole thing is really interesting. But that's what makes Fantasia so amazing: He may have been out of touch with reality, but here all he has to do is accept the existence of Fantasia and he's fine. He also gets his legs back! Maybe touch on the fact that Avi was not actually there, and Joel was having Victor Reznov episodes.

The portal they (He) Fell through would not have been "Deus' Portal." Deus is regarded as a god in Fantasia because he is an Imaginandi. Enforcing that image is his Magnus status. His name is Deus because he does not remember his real name, and never will. No, what they fell through would have been more akin to... in Touhou terms... How Forgotten end up in Gensokyo. The void is there, but only the "user" can see it and interact with it. OH. I KNOW. WE'LL CALL THAT ONE "THE LOW ROAD"

I believe that's everything.

**Lunasa Prismriver** · 09-25-2015, 06:51 PM

So basically lore, got it.
I literally got completely bored and lost sight of the true meaning of what I was writing. I've been reading way too many gappys, help me.

Edit: Fixed the weapons of choice and the lore.

**Kilelicus** · 09-25-2015, 11:45 PM

Eh, good enough.

ACCEPTED.

Now if we can just get one more person..

**Tewi_Inaba** · 09-26-2015, 03:34 AM

Spoiler:

**Kilelicus** · 09-26-2015, 11:26 AM

Alright. So. Tewi. A couple things.
1. Invalidum are not crazy, like you might be thinking. They are utterly mindless. They are not the least bit aware of their actions. They're akin to someone having constant seizures. Sometimes those seizures involve creating dangerous Figments. Sometimes it doesn't. Their rejection of the Fantasia has left them catatonic. As there is no layer below Fantasia, no more room for the mind to dive, they're just stuck in Fantasia, without being aware of it.

2. Stop literally pulling these long as fuck bios out of your ass like holy shit what are you. (Don't take this seriously.)

3. As far as the whole blood thing goes... um... She'd have to be a Magnus for that, and the sword would have to be a Figment instead of a standard weapon. A Figment with a personality and everything. I'm partial to internal conflict, so I, personally, would recommend the sword either be opposed to Sangu's bloodlust, or Sangu fighting against the constant urge to slaughter that the sword imposes upon her. That's just me though. The former would probably work better. This isn't Deadman Wonderland.

Also: The FBI has no true governmental power. They have absolutely no pull when it comes to people's existence as far as records go. They're an Investigative Bureau, not the CIA.
