"For there to be a new beginning, the old world must be put to ruin and destroyed."
Everyone knows that Crystal Tokyo is the end result of something that happened to the earth, but no one knows what it is or how it came about. Just that one day, everything they knew from before was gone and in its' place was a crystal palace and monarchs called King Endymion and Neo-Queen Serenity declaring themselves rulers of the Earth and Moon. No one can quite remember how many people existed on Earth before then or whether or not they had histories from before.
So now, turn back the clock, to the time before Crystal Tokyo was founded, to the old world that had been forgotten by all, to the point where everyone was living a normal life- an average life to find out what had happened.
The year is XXXX. Just one year before the establishment of Crystal Tokyo, a team will be awakened to fight against a group of people that call themselves " Nightshade." Their goal? Obviously, to take of the world, of course. Or at least it seems so.
It's up to the new team that have awakened in another country to try and stop them or risk failing and everything they know to come to an end.

Setting:
The story takes place in Rose Falls, USA, which is a marine town along the mid-east coastline. It's a fairly average city that has the usual things most cities do. It's locally known for not only delicious seafood but also for their famous two-hundred year old rhododendron.
The Nightshade (Name must be derived from the plants. Key to them is also, they were once normal people but have been granted powers by an unknown entity. They each have their reasons for doing this. They each have a theme to them..)
The rules here are the same as the guild's and this should be obvious at this point. (we're all adults here so we should know better.)
exclaim No OPs (overpowerful) attacks/Characters. Not looking for a one-hit wonder or perfection here. You're gonna get hit/hurt in the beginning.
exclaim No puppetry (unless told to by another player to do so).
exclaim Limit to attacks is One per person until the next upgrade so you better make it count. With each upgrade you can still use your previous attack but it won't be as powerful as the new one. (eg: Jupiter Thunderbolt is weaker than Sparkling wide pressure.)
exclaim Limit to psychic abilities is one and should be unreliable.
exclaim As usual, keep the extreme gore and extreme sex stuff off the thread. Fade to black or whatever. this is pretty much PG 16.
exclaim Please use the away thread in the main guild to notify people if you're gonna be gone for a minute. The rp is probably going to go a little fast since I want it to move to a new situation every other week. (two weeks or less dealing with one thing.)
exclaim Please check the Summary post to catch up on what's going on. Please also check the weather/day post to know what day it is and time
exclaim Also, check here every now and then to see if the rules have changed.
exclaim Please be aware that this RPG takes place before Crystal Tokyo and all. All histories have been reconned so this is pretty much new things for everyone. your character will start out at a Basic Level. Sailor Senshi uniforms can look like anything because I don't care.
In the Early Morning hour, a strange orb has appeared! It contains the villainous group calling themselves Nightshade, lead by Lady Solana who answer to their ruler, The Entity. It is unknown what they truly want, butLady Oleander has gone out to make trouble in the town. -
Rose Morgan ( Sailor Morganite ) has gone out for a walk, hoping to find a new Sailor Soldier to help in her mission since she has gotten a message from The Boss that one would appear soon. She runs into Rune Thrussell (Sailor Aquamarine) who's cleaning up her family boat. Feeling something of a pull- a sort of power about her, Rose asks if Rune has had something strange happen to her. It's revealed that Rune is indeed the person she's been looking for!
As they spoke, Rose told Rune of an enemy that has come to Rose Falls and that it is their mission to defeat it, to get back their normal lives. Both Rose and Rune are reluctant for this, but seemed to have accepted this. After exchanging numbers, the two part ways.
-- Still reeling from what had happened, Rune goes to a local bakery where a familiar face is working. Ina Chase (Sailor Topaz), has had some similar strange expedience that has left her with a transformation item, much like the others. She and Rune exchange pleasantries, and Rune senses something similar about Ina that she felt about Rose.
However this comes to an end when Lady Oleander who's rather hungry, sent her monster in to get her some food and then burn the place down.
Immediately, Rune transforms into Sailor Aquamarine and Ina follows suit becoming Sailor Topaz to battle this new enemy! ---
Rose Morgan gets an alert from The Boss about the disturbance and has transformed into Sailor Morganite. As she heads to the bakery, she senses the presence of Lady Oleander! However, Lady Oleander remains hidden in shadows (while eating some donuts) as Sailor Morganite investigates the alley.
--- Cassim, Lady Oleander's human-like monster, fights with Sailor Topaz and Sailor Aquamarine. While the two Sailor Soldiers work more or less well together, Cassim still manages to wound Aquamarine in the side before being destroyed by Topaz. Topaz, now Ina, tries to patch Rune up. Both girls wonder if they had just killed an actual person or not. Ina wonders what the hell is actually going on.
--- Lady Oleander attacks Morganite, after Morganite had fired randomly into the darkness of the alley and hit the villain's doughnuts, enraging her. Oleander manages to wound Morganite in the leg and had cornered her. Morganite used her attack to create an illusion that stops Oleander in her tracks. Though she had a clear shot, Morganite was unable to seriously wound Oleander but instead sent a warning shot. The latter, broken out of the illusion, hears her monster die and promises revenge on all the Sailor soldiers before disappearing.
After the battle, Rose calls for an ambulance after looking inside the Bakery and seeing Rune injured with Ina by her side trying to patch her up. Regretting getting them involved somehow, Rose questions further involvement.
However, The Boss tells her that she must because there is another task they must do and they must do it together.
======= Jan. 21 (Day 3): Weather- Sunny and Windy
Rose is currently wandering the city, trying to get the courage up to talk to both Ina and Rune.
---
Rose ends up picking Rune up from the hospital, taking her to the bakery where they meet up with Ina who's working.
After Ina is able to take a break, the three women head to a nearby park to talk about the events two days ago and about what they should do now.
Boss reveals that their enemy is called "The Nightshade" and the Nightshade's mission is to continue to destory earth. It is also found out that they, Rune/Rose/Ina, are called 'Sailor soldiers' and their mission is to protect earth from evil. They have also found out that there have been other Sailor Soldiers before them but have mysteriously gone missing. They learn that their mission is also to retrieve something called the Sacred Sprites of Earth, which are elemental creatures who keep the earth's barriers in tact. However, with what is going on in the world, the barrier has weakened and they in turn need to help protect them from further damage.
In this, Ina questions Boss and their role in this which is enough to set off Rose who storms off from the conversation.
Rune asks Boss what Rose's problem was, and Boss could only tell her that Rose's awakening to her Sailor Soldier form was 'traumatizing' but also does not know the details as well.
With Rune off to fetch Rose, Ina continues to question the Boss, who gives out as much answers as he is possibly able to. Though Ina accepts the explanations given, she does so reluctantly.
Meanwhile, Rune has invited Rose over to her house after the meeting, which Rose nervously accepts.
Back together now, Boss tells them that the first Sprite they are to find exists in the waters near the port. Rune suggests that they could use her sailboat but worries about her father noticing she's missing.
The Boss gives them all a bracelet that could hypnotize whoever they like for a short time in order to do what they need to do.
This also surprises Rose, who's known Boss the longest. After Boss syncs up with all their phones so they can communicate easier, the group disbands, with Ina going back to work and Rose taking Rune home.
At Rune's home, Rose and Rune have a heart to heart. Rose reveals that she only keeps people at arm's length because of the secondary nature that being a Sailor Soldier has granted her- becoming an empath. She can feel other peoples' emotions which can overwhelm her at times.
Rune reveals the real reason she and her father moved to Rose Falls, was because of her late mother's wish for them to see the world.
Rune tells Rose that if she needs anything that she's only a call away.
The two separate with Rose wondering if they'll all survive any of this to live a normal life again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jan. 22 (Day4) :
To diversify and essentially make things interesting, the Battles will be decided by a Random Number generator system. And for the interest of simplicity I'll keep it short and to the point.
For short - Monster Of the Day battles:
RNG- 1 thru 5.
1- the Sailor Soldiers win with no injuries to them.
2- The Sailor Soldiers win with minimal injuries to them.
3- It is a draw. Neither side wins.
4- The Enemy wins with no injuries to them.
5- The Enemy wins with minimal injuries.
=====
For Larger battles (such as battles with the main bad guys/ Group Event thing)
Invisible to all, a sphere appears above the darkened city. It silently floats above the city to the outskirts of the city where the forests were plentiful and full. It lands with a bright flash of light, becoming a dark manor nestled in the foothills of the forest. Within the manor, an eerie silence reigned with only a clock without hands, ticking away loudly. Further into the manor was a room, grand and impossibly vast with a strange soft glowing light coming from the other side of the room.
It was on a pedestal and before it knelt a young girl who seemed to be in prayer with her salmon pink hair up in a ponytail the spilled down to her waist. Her outfit looked as if she took a beautiful pink flower and fashioned it into a dress. Another sound was heard, the soft whispery voice of the girl that seemed unintelligible to the normal human ear. The glowing light pulsed slightly in response to the girl's voice before it vanished, leaving the girl alone.
She rose slowly to her feet, then raised a raw umber hand to gesture for the image to appear before her of the sleepy city of Rose Fall, still stirring itself to wakefulness. "It is here that we must begin." She said, seemingly to no one, "For the greatness that will come, we must start with this city that lies on the point."

"This place? Are you serious, Big Sis?" A figure emerged out of the shadows, the belts adorning her deep green hooded jacket and matching pants clinking musically as she approached. Her arms folded over her chest, her nose wrinkled in disgust-- only her nose and the bottom of her face was visible underneath the heavy hood of her jacket. She fiddles with the back of her jacket, absently fluffing the blood red fabric that settled in neat folds along the edge of it to give the outfit a slightly more feminine feel.
"This place is a dump, Sol! Why do we have to go here?" Her voice raised into a whine. "I bet there aren't any fun targets for me there!"
Letting her hand fall to her side, Lady Solana turned to her younger companion, withholding a sigh. Oleander was often this way and Solana had to find ways to keep the temperamental girl mostly entertained in some manner. Still, she smiled softly, folding her hands in front of her. Perhaps this new venture would help her friend. "The Entity has spoken to me, Lady Oleander." she began, confidence infused with her words, "Here, the point will be the start of it all. However, the Entity has warned me that there might be others that may wish to stop us. Perhaps you may run into such beings here. In any case, my need is for you to go out and scout this area. There's still places I do not have available to me on the viewing screen. Even though the Entity has provided for us already, it seems incomplete."

Oleander's head poked up at the suggested mission, enough that two glowing red dots formed beneath her hood.
"Why didn't ya say so earlier, Big Sis!" She hopped around Solana gleefully, twirling for good measure before settling into a salute. "You can count on me! Oooh which face should I wear for this? It's been a while since I've gotten to infiltrate anything!" She gazed up at the ceiling as she pondered, absently juggling four of her small knives. Finally she sheathed them with succinct motions, grinning at Solana. "I think I got it!"
Lady Solana only giggled a bit at Lady Oleander's giddiness. She shooed her away, "Go on then, Olean. But do not underestimate our new enemies."
----
Rose yawned softly in the morning light. Behind her, the tv blared on about some local holiday or event that was going on right now. She made a face as she put together a to-go cup with some coffee in it. After sweetening it to her taste, she pulled on her gray jacket and headed out to take her daily walk to the harbor. Her daily walk was often peaceful and thankfully mostly void of humans. Curling her dark hands around the cup, she felther fingers tingle with warmth. Warmth that allowed her to forget the past for now.
If only for a moment. The heavy weight in her blue-jean pocket also reminded her of another thing. The real reason she often went for walks like this. "You must find others like you and defeat the enemy." The Boss had told her. "It's only then you'll be free to live as you want."
Rose's lips thinned slightly at the thought, "Others like me? How the hell am I supposed to do that?" She asked out loud, the harbor became larger in her view. "What? Throw up an ad on twitter or something?"
Her growing frustration at this unknown was hard to contian, even though she tried to calm herself again. It was no use in getting upset about this. She just has to think about it rationally.
"I hope the boss knows what he's talking about."

"Gooooot it~!" Oleander practically sang the words before disappearing back into the shadows, reappearing just at the outskirts of town. She pulled out a small notebook, tugging her hood lower over her head. "Alright then, where to start...?"
----
Rune stretched as she walked out the door, her bag bouncing against her hip with each step. Putting her earbuds in her ears, she made her way to the docks, leaping from the wooden planks to the side of her and her father's fishing boat in an easy bound, then vaulted over the railing. She wanted to get the vessel nice and clean before they went out and started their rounds tomorrow, checking their pods for any lobsters or crabs that had decided to climb in.
Oooh... Lobster bisque for dinner... now there was a thought. Grinning to herself, she pulled her hair back into its normal braid, then picked up the mop and bucket to start cleaning the deck, starting at the aft, closest to shore. As she worked, she cranked up the music in her earbuds, singing along to the song with her volume completely unchecked.
Sipping her drink, Rose leaned against the railing of the harbor, watching the sailors moving their cargo to the pier, getting ready to open up for the fish market not too far from there. It reminded her that she needed to get some shrimp and other sea creatures for dinner. Maybe crab? Is it the season for snow crab yet?
It made her long for home for a moment. Her mother's cooking and even her father's corny jokes.
"Oh..well.." She turned, draining the cup a bit more. "At least it'll be worth it to make some soup or something."
While the pink haired woman contemplated her meal, she realized something. Her phone was singing one of the tunes she set for text messages. Slipping her hand in, she pulled out the pink phone and looked it over.
"Weird..." She flipped it open and saw it was from 'The Boss'. Quickly, her eyes scanned over the words. "Something is here? Really? And...someone like me is nearby?"
She turned her head, scanning the area for another person that she thought was like her. Someone with a special 'thing' about them. "I wish he'd include a picture. this would've been way more easier that way."
