The Last Dance:
March 31, 2005 NC (Neo Century)
Nearly five years since April Fools Massacre, and the day the world nearly ended a second time. The once mighty coporation known as Yamato began its final gambit to plunge both Earth and Space into chaos, and therefore secure their place as the kings amongst the stars. At the last moment, the combined forces of the United Earth Government (UEG), Angels of Liberation (AOL), the Spacenoid Army, and a number of ragtag group of MS Troopers thwarted Yamato's plans, and destroyed the corporation once and for all.
Much blood has been spilled, and many have fallen in battle, and both Earth and the Moon paid a high price for freedom. Much innocence was lost, and much agony was felt throughout the reaches of the stars. Only a few were lucky enough to live and tell the story.
Yet in spite of this, there was a small trickle of hope. There was still life, the shackles of the old world crumbled, and with the lessons learned from the past, a new alliance was forged.
A Shining Hope:
With many advancements lost, resources depleted, and old leaders wiped out, the remaining peoples of Earth and space forged a new, uneasy alliance.
Though there would be much animosity, the need to secure a future for a once thriving race outweighed old grudges, grudges in which most don't even remember. Through only a span of a few years, Earth and space have slowly began to heal, but the scars of the war will long remain.
Through the alliance, the Lunarions were able to repair their colonies, and the UEG regained control of both American continents. Given more time, the alliance may even bring the whole Earthsphere back to order.
Heaven on the Shoulders (Atlas and Millenium):
April 1st, 2008
When the alliance was secured, two large scale projects began development. One known as 'Atlas', the other 'Millenium'.
Atlas is a large-scale orbital elevator being constructed roughly at the equator just off the eastern shore of Central America. This 'bridge to the heavens' is meant to unite the two governments even further by making Earth/Space travel easire, and allowing constant, high level trade.
Millenium is a prototype 'arcology' being built in New Mexico, simultaneously attempting to solve part of the space/resource problem on Earth, and also acting as a prototype for a new design of off-world colony.
Both projects are nearly 50 percent complete.
When they're finished, most believe they will usher in a new age of peace and prosperity, but they still remain incomplete. Things have progressed steadily since the alliance formed, but that does not mean that all is well.
Specters of the Past
The alliance is very unstable, only remaining intact because of the benefits to both sides. And there are many threats both internal and external that threaten to send it all tumbling down.
First and foremost are the infamous 'Hunters'. Though many were destroyed since the massacre eight years before, there are still enough of the sentient machines either lying dormant or wandering in search of targets to cause a problem. The alliance military makes the destruction of these monstrous machines a top priority.
Next are the rogues. MS Troopers who for one reason or another refuse to support the alliance. They live across space and on the Earth, staking claims to whatever territories the alliance has not yet taken. They range in power from small, self-styled Empires to mere roving bands of street thugs. Between them and the Hunters, the military has its hands full.
In addition, all is not well in the alliance itself. A state of constant unease pervades most meetings. Despite all rational thought to the contrary, some people can not set aside their differences, or the grudges of the past. There are occasional minor incidents, but the bigger threat is quieter. Extremists on both sides, who plot and counter-plot, attempting to find a weakness and exploit it. They are willing to risk everything for one last battle, one last chance to take it all and unite it under their banner. Luckily, no such opportunity has presented itself, so far.
Finally, deep in the shadows, past where any man looks, a dragon watches and waits. He eyes this progress with scorn, and dreams of the day it will all burn. For his plans can only be carried out when the Earthsphere once again plunges into anarchy...

Welcome to the new MS Girls RP, being run by myself and Aegis with permission from Airmaster.
This RP will be a direct sequel to the previous one that was deleted before its time at the old boards. As such, old characters are welcome to make a return, provided you match a few new guidelines, and new ones are more than welcome.
Basic rules:
1) Listen to the GMs
Current GMs are myself and Aegis. Basically, we make the last call on all disputes in the RP. We aren't total assholes, so don't be afraid to talk to us if you don't agree with something, but at the same time if you try to reverse a decision without talking to us, we'll come down hard on you.
2) No 'god-moding'
Despite the unrealistic nature of the RP, there ARE limits. You will be expected to RP to your character's strengths and weaknesses. No one is invulnerable and even the best soldiers can be injured. No single player character is superior to any other.
3) No Killing Without Permission (The Consent Rule)
We all acknowledge that death is a part of combat, and ultimately someone will probably die. But not necessarily the PCs (they ARE the main characters, after all). While we expect PvP battles to happen, they do NOT always need to end in the death of one side. Victorious players are expected to accept surrenders/escapes unless they have agreed to a death scene with the other character's player. On the flipside, do not expect to be treated as 'invincible' because of this rule. If a GM thinks you're being cheap, you'll be called on it and expected to change your post.
4) All mecha are available
That's right, all mecha franchises are open to use in this RP for your Trooper's armor. Be it Gundam, Eva, ZOE or even a custom design (more on this later). If you use a mech that is deemed too powerful (for example, Devil Gundam) you will be asked to change your armor. Remember, no armor is 'perfect'. All will ultimately perform at similar levels, making it the trooper, not the armor, that decides the battle.
5) One character must be female, three characters max.
What can I say, it's tradition! Besides, limiting characters to three makes it a bit less confusing.
6) Have fun!
Simple really, this RP is meant for enjoyment. If you find yourself not enjoying it, try to find a way to make it fun, instead of complaining. Howver, if your problem is with another player, talk it out and if that doesn't work, just talk to a GM and we'll help sort it out. Remember, this is another part of the reason the GMs are around!
In addition, remember this:
Just because something is not written in the rules, does not mean it is right. Use sensible judgement, and if your actions cause other players to struggle unnecessarily, the GMs will deal with your actions. (we do mean the PLAYERS, not the characters. There's a fine line between causing an interesting plot twist and causing mass headaches.)

I will be adjusting this a little more, but what you see below will be the gist of it. *** Character Stats:Below are the stats I expect you to follow when creating your character. Granted, they do not have to be exact, and can even be modified somewhat, but do not deviate far from the categories below. The stats and info I expect to see are as follows: Name: Self explanatory. Just give the character a name of some sort. Age: Also self explanatory. A recommendation: regarding most cyborgs and all androids, try and keep their age relatively young. Androids, above all else, can be as young as 3 years old, and no older than 20 years, since the technology itself is meant to be fairly new. Sex: Very self explanatory. Male or female (or... no comment)? Hair Color & Style: Self explanatory. Just a general description of the hair is fine. What colour is the hair? Is it long? Is it straight? Curly? Does he/she even have any? Eye Color: Also self explanatory, only need the eye colour, though any other little descriptions you want to add are welcome. Height: List the height in feet and inches. Weight: List the weight in pounds. Race (Human, Android, Cyborg, Bioweapon): There are basically four different races in the RPG. Keep in mind that the descriptions used here are more or less an outline, rather than a hard rule, so long as you keep your characters relatively reasonable. Descriptions for each are as follows: -Human: Very self explanatory. Usually the weakest of the four races, though humans can possess newtype capabilities. If you need an explanation on this... I kinda feel for you. -Android: Humanoid-like machines with artificial intelligence, making them independent and self-aware. Androids are usually (though not always; armour is sometimes integrated as part of their physiology) human-like in appearance to blend in with the crowd, while possessing more strength and intelligence than the average human being. Typically, as complex as their AI programming is, most androids lack basic emotion and creativity in some level or form. Of course, there are the rare androids whose AI program is so complicated, that they possess the same human emotions, and even creativity, as their flesh and blood counterparts. Androids do not possess newtype abilities. -Cyborg: Part man, part machine, they are a combination of human and android. Much like the androids, they are typically stronger and/or more intelligent than humans, yet retain the basic emotions, empathy, and creativity that androids lack. Note: Not all human/machine combinations constitute a cyborg. For instance, a person with a single cybernetic limb, or a single cybernetic organ would be labelled human despite these mechanical parts. It is a matter of judgement how you, the player, decides to label such race. -Bioweapon: The newest race added, bioweapons are essentially genetically engineered beings , typically using animal DNA, bred within the Yamato laboratories for war. Some may be former humans with their genes altered, while others may be created in a test tube. All bioweapons usually have very distinct physical (namely animal) features that set them apart from most humans. With the destruction of Yamato, a number of these bioweapons have escaped, and since then, are living amongst the population with the rest of the people. Not exactly embraced, but not shunned by society either. Stronger and faster than a normal human, some bioweapons may even possess some newtype capabilities, and while weaker than androids and cyborgs on average, they can still stand toe to toe with those races without armour. (Players must receive GM's approval to use a bioweapon). -Other: On occasion, there will be races that do not quite fit this category whatsoever. Races may be combinations of the above, and may be totally different from the above. Having said this, the GMs will be the ones to approve whether you use this race or not. Give us a description and a good reason for the addition of this race and we will determine whether you can play this or not. Armour Name: The name of the armour based on mecha or robot from a series, be it from Gundam, Macross, Megaman or virtually any mecha or robot. The RPG does allow some modifications, such as an additional weapon, alternate colours, additional powers, etc., though try not to deviate too much from the actual mecha's stats. Second, due to godmodding issues, certain mechs will not be used. These include the Devil Gundam, Turn X, or Turn A Gundam. In other words, any mecha capable of overpowering other characters, giving the player in question an overwhelming advantage in the whole RPG, is not allowed. While the likes of God Gundam or Wing Zero can be used, such mechs would have to be toned down, be it given less firepower, or an energy cost of sorts, from using their powers or weapons. In such cases, use your judgement on what you can or cannot do with this armour. Armour Type (Integrated, Exosuit, Morpher): Aside from the name and general loadout, exactly what type of armour is your character using? More so than the race listed, the armour type is simply a general guideline with more flexibility involved, as there can be combinations of each type (except the morpher). There are two basic armour types, and a third special type that are generally found. -Integrated: Armour and parts are practically grafted on your character as though part of the body. Your character will always have this armour on at all times. As such, power typically runs from the cyborg or androids own power source. This armour is typical for cyborgs and androids. -Exosuit: Opposite of integrated is the exosuit, where the character puts the armour on like a layer of clothing. The power source, in this case, is external, the armour having its own energy cells. This armour type is typical for humans and androids. -Morpher: Your character must be either an android or cyborg to use this. This is basically an exosuit of sorts, yet the properties differ enough to be placed under its own category. Instead of snapping on the armour like an exosuit, the morpher type 'activates' the armour through a morpher pack worn on the wrist. The armour thus 'appears' on the character almost instantaneously, complete with weapons and all. In other words, it is your typical transformation sequence without the cheesiness of long naked transformation scenes (though if you like long naked transformation scenes, I won't try to stop you). ^^ Morpher types are the most complex type of MS Trooper developed, as it involves technology to materialise the armour onto the wearer's skin. Compared to most typical cyborgs and androids, all morphers are human-like in appearance, able to blend in the most with a crowd. Armour itself is typically lighter than usual, as much of the major functions and internal power come straight from the wearer him/herself, and easily stored away within the memory of the wrist morpher. At the same time, the armour itself can still be manually removed like an exosuit, which typically snaps off easier than the latter. Highly advanced, and the most convenient and efficient of the three, yet also the rarest and most difficult to maintain due to expenses, and availability of proper tools. A morpher that is injured will have more problems than the latter three. (Players must receive GM's approval to use this armour, and is only allowed a maximum of ONE morpher in their cast; furthermore, if player decides to kill that morpher, then 9 times out of 10 you will not be allowed to have a morpher character again, so consider wisely). -Other: No one said that you have to use these armours exactly (except for morpher). Sometimes, we may allow a mixture between integrated and external armour, and sometimes we may even allow completely different and original armours to be used. Having said this, two things to remember: 1) Armour will require GM approval, 2) Armour can only be used once for one character only. More on custom armours later... Armaments: basically a list of weapons your MS Girl/Guy will be equipped with. Your weapons will more or less be based on the actual weapons used by said mech. Favorite Weapon: Optional, this is more of a personality quirk than an armament listing. What is your character's weapon of choice? Likes: Optional, and quite self explanatory. Just a small additional trait to describe interesting little tidbits or quirks in his/her persona. Can be anything from people, philosophies, food, animals, hobbies, etc. Dislikes: Again, optional and self explanatory, though this time, what does your character hate above all else. Background/Bio: This is perhaps the most important detail of all, as it describes the personality and background of your character. While I am not looking for a long essay, give some in depth details pertaining to your character, such as his/her past, his/her persona, where he/she comes from, etc. This part is important in setting the tone for your character, as well as give players a general idea of how to interact with your character (especially if someone else decides to use your character in his/her post). You, as the player, should stick to this personality as much as possible. Though characters in a story do change and grow over time, the changes should be reasonable based on this profile you have provided.

Now, since I said I would allow it this time...
Custom Armor
1) You must have a very good RP reason for your character to have custom armor (GM's call, altering your profile will be necessary to keep the armor if your reason isn't deemed to be appropriate.)
2) Custom armors may be more advanced than a standard design, but they are more prone to malfunction and will be harder to repair when damaged. You will be expected to RP this. The GMs will judge this with great scrutiny, as we intend to keep the field as fair as possible.
3) Please note that 'custom armor' only applies to your own creations, be they franken or drawing (you must have some kind of image). Also, you are more likely to get approval if you can provide some basic statistics on your design for comparison purposes (nothing too fancy, just armaments and a general idea of what it was made for will do)
Player-made boss character rules.
The moment you've all been waiting for, we promised that players would be able to create bosses, thus we will deliver. The rules that you must follow are outlined below:
1) Players must have three characters before creating a boss. 2) Bosses must contribute to the story. They do NOT exist just to give you an excuse to god mode. Whether or not your boss contributes is up to the GMs. If they disagree, you may try to change or convince us, but if we say no we mean no. Kicking and screaming won't change that. 3) Player-made bosses, unless said otherwise, are not stronger than GM bosses. The GM bosses are there for both the sake of the story, and as enforcers of the RPG. 4) Player made bosses can belong to any major faction, but may NOT side with player characters, at least not for now. Examples: Ryu's Clan, Yamato Remnants, Alliance, AoL, UEG 5) For now, there will be a limit to just ONE boss per player (other than GMs, of course). This is to keep the RPG under control, until deemed otherwise. 6) The GMs reserve the right to revoke boss status. If this happens, the character will either die, be sent down to NPC status or otherwise be removed from the story until further notice. 7) In the same way, the reverse can be true: a 'boss' isn't necessarily an entirely new character. It is possible to 'upgrade' a regular character to a boss if the story permits such a change in power and allegiance. Remember, however, that the definition of a boss is that it is a very powerful ENEMY. If you want your character to become a boss, he/she must have a good reason to turn against the others. 8) Even if you follow the guidelines, GMs still reserve the right to approve the boss character. So until we do give you that approval, be it completely new, or upgraded from player status, don't be playing that boss at all. Just because you made a boss doesn't necessarily mean you get to use one. Bosses are a privelidge, not a right.
Here is a blank profile for easy 'cut and paste'
Name: Age: Sex: Hair Color & Style: Eye Color: Height: Weight: Race: Armor: Armor Type: Armaments: Favorite Weapon: Likes: Dislikes: Background/Bio:
And for an example of how it should look, here's one of my characters.
Name: Dai (Utsukushii Shojo Hana) Age: 23 Sex: Female Hair Color & Style: Dark Orange-Red, long and straight, kept tied in a loose pony tail with bangs. Eye Color: Red, slit pupils Height: 5'7" Weight: 131 lbs Race: Bioweapon (Utahraptor) Armor: Anubis Armor Type: External Armaments: Beam Glaive x1 Beam shot x2 (single shot at a time) Tracking Lasers x6 Energy Burst x1 (slow, tracking, takes time to charge) Favorite Weapon: Glaive Likes: Ekitai/Melanie, Fighting, AD era music Dislikes: Most people, always being treated differently
Background/Bio:
Dai was one of the soldiers responsible for stopping Yamato, and was also one of those who paid the highest price. During the battle, her lover disappeared and was assumed to be dead. Dai refused to accept this, and left the rest of the crew and began searching for any sign of Melanie, a search that continues to this day.
Dai was once a normal human woman named Utsukushii, a soldier who fought for the UEG in the war. It was there that she first met Melanie and there that they were first seperated. Dai was very nearly killed in a mission, in fact medically she was dead for a few seconds. But Yamato found her and brought her back, but not as she was. She became a bioweapon, her genes being combined with the reconstructed DNA of a 'Utahraptor', a long extinct dinosaur.
At the current time, she is a neutral factor and a possible wildcard in the situation. She neither supports the alliance or works against it, frankly she could care less what happens to it. She keeps her armor and has needed to use it to get out of a few situations and occasionally make some money, but she is generally not viewed as a threat by either the UEG or AOL.
She is a very distant person, nowadays. She tends to avoid most people and barely keeps in contact with some of her fellow soldiers from the Shining Hope. Mainly to find out if they'd heard anything about Mel. Dai clings to the belief that somewhere out there her lover is alive. As she has said to those that questioned her before, Melanie had to wait nearly five years for her to return, who knows how long Dai will have to wait to learn just what did happen to her.
Alright, that's all for now. Go ahead and start working on characters.

Name: Kouji Kamishima Sex: Male Age: 19 Hair color & Style: Brown, short and flowing Eye color: Brown Height: 5'3" Weight: 121 lbs. (Unarmored), Unknown when armored Race: Human Armor: GF13-017NJII God Gundam Armor Type: Exosuit Armaments: Machine Cannon x2, Beam Sword x2 Systems: Power Multiplier, Mobile Trace System Special Attacks: God Field Dash, Bushin Sapou God Shadow, Bakunetsu God Slash, Bakunetsu God Slash Typhoon, Choukyuu Haoh Den'eidan, Bakunetsu God Finger, Sekiha Tenkyoken, 'Mei Kyou Shi Sui' Favorite weapon/attack: Bakunetsu God Finger Likes: Happy Endings, Fuunsaiki Dislikes: Treachery
The Eternal Dreamer, now three years older... As one of the original Shining Hope crew that helped the Alliance defeat Yamato on March 31, 2005, Kouji Kamishima has eventually managed to become a famed 'Street Fighter' and wandering problem solver of sorts, travelling all over the Earth and helping numerous people and families in need. A firm believer in happy endings still, Kouji has been going at this for all three years without complaint, and is still maintaining his current lifestyle happily thus far. Despite this, however, Kouji had learned long ago not to try to change the world in one go; he prefers to help the world one person at a time if possible, but will nevertheless do his best when needed.
Currently Kouji has no plans to join the Alliance and remains neutral as of yet. In fact, Kouji was actually reluctant to join the Alliance for two reasons: one was because he never felt comfortable working for big organizations, and the second was that Kouji, in the final battle against Yamato, was the one who directly killed UEG Colonel Jerid Albright when Jerid tried to turn on the Shining Hope --- and as Jerid had powerful friends, Kouji knew that the UEG would only be tolerant of him at best in the Alliance.
Kouji is accompanied everywhere he goes by the infamous 'First Hunter Prototype', the Mobile Horse Fuunsaiki, who is actually his mother Miki Masuda after she was killed before the April Fools Massacre. The boy knows that Fuunsaiki is family and treats her as such, and she is irreplaceable to him.

Name: Kally Lyedalla Sex: Female Age: 25 Hair color & Style: Green, waist-length, tied into one ponytail at the back Eye color: Green Height: 5'9" Weight: 123 lbs. (Unarmored), Unknown when armored Race: Human Armor: Aura Battler Billbine Armor Type: Exosuit Armaments: Aura Sword, Cable Talon x6, Aura Beam Sword Rifle x1, Aura Shot Cannon x2 Special Attacks: Aura Cut, Hyper Aura Cut Favorite weapon/attack: Aura Sword Likes: Unknown Dislikes: Kouji Kamishima, Treachery Really Dislikes: Nanomachine research, Raidou Reeds, Camilla Diamond
Kill Bill-bine, Vol. 1... First Lieutenant Kally Lyedalla was arguably one of the best (if not the best altogether) top MS Trooper aces of the UEG's ground forces before the April Fools Massacre, amassing a grand total of 178 MS Trooper kills over her 3-year tour of duty --- a quarter of which were amassed in the brutally famed Battle of Berlin in late NC2003. For her amazing service record, Kally was nicknamed the 'Violet Honeybee' for her Dunbine armor's violet color scheme and insect-like motif, and admitted as one of the top members of the UEG's elite 'Ace Corps'; as such, it could easily be seen how Kally's skill has managed to survive her to the present day.
During the five years between the AFM and the rise of the Alliance, Kally had disappeared from public sight entirely until mere weeks after Yamato's defeat when Kally reappeared in the UEG's Jaburo Military Headquarters and offered to rejoin the UEG; Her reasons for her reappearance were unknown but, with Jaburo having suffered both the deaths of Intelligence Officer Jerid Albright in the Yamato battle and, more recently, that of Field Marshal Gunther Van Helsing in the hands of an AOL Remnants assassin, Kally became a valuable addition that helped the UEG regain control of both American continents. She had since became one of the UEG's main spokespersons in the Alliance and works fervantly, and silently, for the UEG cause when ordered.
Where Kally Lyedalla goes from there, though, is yet to be seen. Currently, initially assigned to the rearresting of escaped UEG fugitive Christopher Riley, Kally's mission had taken an interesting turn; exposed to the fact that there was possible treachery within the UEG ranks and the existence of a second, familiar threat long thought gone, Kally travels with Riley, Dai, and her 'rival' Kouji to uncover the truth about both...
Recently, Kally's Dunbine armor was destroyed beyond salvage during an encounter with Yamato Remnants troops; In frustration and eagerness to return to the front lines, Kally had found a replacement upgrade --- Billbine, a prototype Aura Battler Armor with a much more powerful Aura Generator, greater speed and weapons, and near-limitless maximum Aura Power levels. However, Kally had yet to fully control the armor and bend it to her will, as it had been rumored that Billbine was also very dangerous, capable of destroying one's soul and turning him or her into a compassionless, aimless Hunter...

Name: Sigma Age: 29 Sex: Male Hair Color & Style: Bald, goatee Eye Color: Brown Height: 6' 6" Weight: 250 Race: Human/ African American Armor: Bolt Gundam (Varied: See Armaments.) Armor Type: Exo-Suit Armaments: (Instead of the standard Morning Star) - 1X Large single-bladed sword on back - 2x Missles (In place of handles for Morning Star.) Favorite Weapon: His sword, "Santa's Little Helper". Likes: Humor, Swordplay, playing Cat and Mouse with his oppponents. Dislikes: having nothing to do, women who can't take a joke at their expense, heat. Background/Bio: Sigma was born on Earth, in Brooklyn, New York. He had never involved himself in any sort of drugs or alchohol, rather, spent his time physically training his body to become a boxer. At the age of 20, however, he became homeless due to thugs who burned his apartment building down, killing all of his relatives. He fell into a deep depression, but was still adamant about no drugs.
Things began to turn around. An insurance agent was able to find him, and he bought another small apartment. He began to get into gambling rings to try and increase his money. Luckily, his winning streak went on for a long time, enough for him to move out of New York. He moved to Pennsylvania, where he looked for someone to train him ro be a boxer. He found his man, Conrad Murphy, and they worked together for 5 years, forming a father-son rleationship. However, his trainer was called to the military, and has not been heard from yet. Sigma began to fall into a depression again, but rather than let it happen to him again, he sought a new hobby. He found it in the group known as the SCA, a group that tries to relive aspects of medeival ages. Sigma had had an interest in sword play, and here learned how to use an odd weapon to see, a single bladed two handed sword, and was titled the best in his class. As tensions rise, Sigma feels compelled to join, and find the status of Conrad. Armed only with his signature sword, "Santa's Little Helper", who's blade was laser crafted, allowing it to be as sharp and effective as a beam saber, Sigma joins the UEG.
I'll post my woman next.

Aegis: I will when Yumi appears, but if Yumi's essentially retired from public sight altogether, what's the point? =P
...Actually, I changed my mind. Fuunsaiki's an NPC now, so my third character will be, just in case...
* * *
Name: Souffle Reeds Age: 17 Gender: Female Hair Color & Style: Pink, flowing and lowered to torso-length Eye Color: Pink Height: 5'10 Weight: 116 pds (Unarmored), unknown when armored Armor: RX-105 Xi Gundam, Exosuit Fixed Armaments: Beam Saber x2, Vulcan Cannon x2, Beam Rifle x1, Funnel Missiles x 12 Special Systems: Minovsky Craft System, Psycommu System Favorite Weapon: None Likes: Painting, Pancakes Really Likes: Yumi Sonchiro, Gyakuten Saiban 4 Anime Series Dislikes: Really, really rude people
Young Girl, Rise from the Ashes of Lightning Souffle Reeds, adopted daughter of late UEG Hokuten Division commander Nebin Cybrionne, was only fourteen years old when she and 'Cybbie' fought alongside the Shining Hope for the last battle against Yamato. The battle would prove costly to Souffle; there she would see Cybrionne die in a feat of self-sacrifice, and for the first time since before Cybrionne found her Souffle was alone again.
Fortunately, Fate wasn't quite done with Souffle just yet, though, as after the war she was taken in and cared for by a certain Yumi Sonchiro who, also eager to start anew, became her guardian and sister. At the time, Yumi was also caring for someone by the name of Chou Wei-Li who, also being a former member of Yamato, Yumi had pledged to protect. As such, in slight seclusion, the three troopers lived together and managed to work out whatever problems existed; It was from 'Shade' that Souffle had eventually learned to appreciate art and painting, and it was Shade's quiet self that mellowed Souffle's curious demeanor while Yumi, at the same time (and probably to Shade's chagrin) had taught Souffle to live life happily any way she could.
Between her two guardians, three years later, Souffle Reeds had matured into a refined, demure young woman, taller, more slender and beautiful, and it could easily be said that Shade's demeanor eventually won out in Souffle over Yumi's for some reason. ^^; She was now quieter and more thoughtful, and no longer nearly as naive (although sometimes her childish self does shine through); Souffle was also curious, and was willing to try new things --- this might have influenced Souffle's decision to regain a fully organic body and grow as normal children do, as Souffle's Phoenix Gundam armor of the past has now been replaced by a body of her own and a Xi Gundam exosuit. A fitting new start to her new life, nevertheless.
Souffle doesn't know much about the Alliance as of yet or have any plausible plans to join it, and is so far neutral to the goings-on in the world --- she is very much attached to 'Yumie' and will never even think of leaving her. While Cybrionne had told Souffle a little about it, also, it was unknown who Souffle's real father was before the War of Ages and whether or not Souffle's biological father was still alive by now --- If the option presents itself, though, Souffle would probably want to find out as Cybrionne had suggested she should one day...

Name: Otomi Kagenuma Age: 19 Sex: Female Hair Color & Style: Silver, straight, mid-back length with long bangs that reach the cheeks in the front Eye Color: Very light brown Height: 5'5" Weight: 121 lbs Race: Human Armor: Gundam Spiegel Armor Type: External Armaments: -Spiegel Blade x2 -Iron Net -Messergranz (throwing knives) Favorite Weapon: Spiegel Blades Likes: Her work, learning new things Dislikes: Corrupt people, Guns Background/Bio:
Otomi grew up during the last part of the war, and spent the five years after the massacre on her own, all her family and friends cut down by hunters. During this time, she learned how to blend in, not be seen and survive by any means necessary, including theivery.
Shortly after the alliance formed, she had the misfortune to pick the wrong 'mark' to try and pickpocket, and was quickly caught.
Luckily, the man, who called himself Jonathan Shinzeki, saw a use for her skill. He was a very wealthy businessman, but he used his wealth for a purpose. He sought out corrupt officials in the government and found a way to turn them in. He needed agents to carry these tasks out for him, and he saw the potential Otomi had to work as one.
At first the tasks were simple, often just basic intelligence work. But over the years things have gotten more complex, as the progress of society has also coincided with a growth in corrupt officials.
Now, in order to deal with the more major threats, Otomi has been issued a set of armor, paid for by her benefactor. Although she hasn't had the Spiegel Armor for very long, she has already made great progress with it, as it goes along with her natural talents nicely.
Her last few missions have gotten harder and harder, including the assasination of a general who wished to break the alliance. This assasination did not have a clean getaway, however, and now there is a bounty out for the arrest of a 'rogue trooper in black and white armor', along with a picture of her.
Deep down, she is a good person, and she truly believes in the work she is doing, helping to keep the alliance stable. Unfortunately, the shadowy nature of her assignments often leads to people thinking she is a 'bad guy' when she really isn't. She is simply doing what is necessary to keep things in check. Personallity wise, it is almost surprising she does the work she does. She reads frequently and has several close friends. She is slow to anger, but can be quite a handful when finally pushed over the edge. She also has an unfortunate habit of pocketing small objects that aren't hers (a holdover from when she lived alone).
Currently, she is on lighter assignments because of her near capture. Mr. Shinzeki is attempting to have the bounty removed, but it is a process that will take some time.
NPC
Name: Omega-624 Age: 4 Sex: Male Hair Color & Style: Short, dark blue Eye Color: Gray Height: 5'11" Weight: 192 lbs (mostly due to internal equipment) Race: Android Armor: n/a Armor Type: n/a Armaments: n/a Favorite Weapon: Integrated Tazer Likes: Helping others, Dai Dislikes: Illogical actions, Those who cause pain out of sadism Background/Bio:
Omega-624 is a medic/support droid created specifically to work with Dai. His loyalty to her is absolute due to his programming. He contains interated within his body all the equipment necessary to repair and maintain trooper armor, as well as medical supplies.
Three years ago, he served as the chief medic on the Shining Hope, but left with Dai a few days after the battle. He has followed her ever since, even though he does not comprehend what she is trying to accomplish.
Given his programing, he has absolutely no taste for combat. His function is to heal those who choose to fight, not to fight himself.

The last thing I would do in this RP is to retire Yumi. ;P But I ask simply because I gotta see how grown up she's become. *** Name: Yumi Sonchiro (aka. 'Black Fox') Age: 22 Sex: Female Hair Color & Style: Purple, long and straight, tied in a ponytail Eye Color: Red Height: 5' 9" Weight: 126lbs Race: Cyborg Armour Name: RX-93-v Hi-Nu Gundam Armour Type: Morpher Armaments: 1x beam saber, 1x mega saber, 1x shield, 1x beam rifle, 1x v hyper bazooka, 2x vulcan gun, 1x hyper mega bazooka launcher, 6x fin funnels Likes: Rabbits, keeping herself active, sleep (after keeping active) Really Likes: Souffle Reeds, Nebin Cybrionne (deceased), Cho Sonchiro (deceased) Dislikes: Feeling alone, perverted or evil men, being hit on by other women Really Dislikes: Anyone who insults or slanders Cho Theme(s): Velveteen, Rise Background/Bio: Beloved Sister, Vicious Fox...Three years ago, Yumi Sonchiro regained her memories after a few years of amnesia. Three years ago, Yumi Sonchiro participated in the battle against Yamato, the corporation in which she was once with, and was once considered one of two successors to the CEO of the organisation, 'Shinryu'. Three years ago, she lost her younger brother, Cho Sonchiro, who took his own life in battle to save his older sister, as well as many friends in the Shining Hope, including Mel and Cybrionne. There has been a sense of peace for a number of people still alive on Earth and in space, but for Yumi, the scars of war still burn within. Though she will not show it, Yumi has become a rather conflicted person. Still feeling guilt over the death of her brother, she has become rather protective over those around her, especially over the Phoenix Gundam Girl (now Xi Gundam Girl), Souffle Reeds, and the VF-19F Excalibur Girl, Chow WeiLi (aka. Shade). As a person who was once a murderer and agent to Yamato, no one has been more intimate with both sides of the war than Yumi herself. Nothing in this world seems to stay the same. One of the things that certainly has not changed over the last three years is her skills in combat. Trained by Yamato's CEO himself, her hand-to-hand combat skills are as sharp (and in some cases, violent) as ever. She can be both graceful and vicious in a fight, capable of holding her own. Though people may question her mindset, Yumi is also sharp in mind, capable of thinking on the whim. She is not usually one to sit and plan out strategies, yet she certainly is capable of such planning, and is very good at executing them. Combined with the fact she is a newtype capable of using newtype weaponry, her pedigree with Yamato is certainly quite apparent to those that cross her. A deeply guilt-ridden person, with virtually nowhere else to go, the only reason she had for even keeping in touch with any of the Shining Hope crew are her attachment to Souffle, and her promise to Cho to protect WeiLi. Yumi has kept both promises diligently and faithfully. However, as others have begun to notice, her guilt has taken a toll on her. The Shining Hope crew have already seen her initial breakdown the first time she saw her brother die; though she puts on a cover of confidence, some fear that Yumi may revert back to her suicidal tendencies if she does not forgive herself. *** Name: Chow WeiLi (aka. Shade) Age: 21 Sex: Female Hair Color & Style: Black, long and straight, shoulder length Eye Color: Brown Height: 5' 11" Weight: 128lbs Race: Cyborg Armour Name: VF-19F Excalibur Armour Type: Exo Suit Armaments: laser cannon x 2, bulletproof shield x 1, pinpoint barrier system x 1, Howard GU-15 Gatling gun pod x 1, Little Rock launch system x 2 (micro-missile x 24 or intermediate-range missile x 6 each) Optional Equipment: FAST Pack system Likes: Reading, art, clubbing, dancing, garnering attention, intelligence, Camilla Diamond (which we are still trying to figure out WHY...), Cho Sonchiro (deceased) Dislikes: Unrefined men or slobs, people ignoring her, Yumi's occasional nagging Theme(s): Information High, Cosmic Dare (Pretty With A Pistol) Background/Bio: Beauty, grace, and a big gun...Some say she is stuck up, some say she's a snob, and some say she's a complete b****. However, those who truly know WeiLi would realise that she is anything but all of that. She admits that she comes across as high maintenance, and that's the way she likes it. TO those who truly know her, WeiLi is smart, and can be a very warm person to talk to. Like Yumi, WeiLi was once an agent of the corporation, Yamato. Unlike Yumi, while can be casual in her duties, WeiLi was more effecient and obedient in her work, less erratic in behaviour, and more cautious of the elders looking over their shoulders. In spite of her loyalties, those who know her well have to agree that WeiLi is a person that is too out of place to serve the likes of the elder, Shinryu, and some even wonder why she is one of them in the first place, having since become more carefree and comfortable with the destruction of Yamato. Having a strong attraction towards intelligence, it is one of the reasons why she fell in love with Cho Sonchiro in the first place... perhaps even the one reason why she was with Yamato at all. Indeed, WeiLi and the Sonchiro siblings were at one point childhood friends, until mishaps in the past put a serious strain on WeiLi and Yumi's friendship. In some ways, WeiLi still harbours some mistrust over Yumi, especially over her seemingly maniuplative ways over the younger brother, though she now realises the reality of the situation. If anything, WeiLi felt guilty for Cho's death, and Yumi's condition since she was one of the people responsible for Cho's death in the first place. For this reason, she also kept her promise to Cho to protect the older sister, and while she would never consider herself to be close or to be friends (old wounds heal VERY slowly), WeiLi is able to tolerate her... though the nagging is becoming incessantly annoying. Before, WeiLi was a cyborg with morphing capabilities. Since the battle against Yamato, WeiLi has lost that morphing capability (in fact, was almost killed by it) and has taken up using an exo-suit of the Excalibur armour. This armour therefore gives her both a combination of incredible speed, and destructive firepower all in one. A fighter with much grace, the ability to commit hit and run capabilities is virtually a work of art unto itself... naturally, considering her love and creativity of anything artistic. Deadly with a gun, and also not one to mess with in hand-to-hand situations, said to pack one really, really, REALLY mean punch when pushed just enough. WeiLi is an artist at heart, picky at times, yet considered a cool person to be around. Snobbish at times, warm at others, a woman of intelligence, yet one who also loves to have fun (esepcially at night). A seemingly odd combination of many opposites, yet comes together under one perfect personality, silently carrying a big gun in her proverbial pocket.

You got it, Aegis. See where Fuunsaiki's profile used to be; (XD) a few changes I've decided upon, though. ^_^

She... she's... grown up! I'm so happy! ;_;
***
Name: Delilah
Age: 19
Sex: Female
Hair Color & Style: Ice blue, slightly wavey
Eye Color: Green
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 120lbs
Race: Bioweapon (catgirl)
Armour Name: Nephtis
Armour Type: Exo Suit
Armaments: 2x Claws/Sword/Slash (??), 1x Ring (6x fin guns)
Special Moves: Burst Slash, Burst Shot (3 Homing Shots, individually weaker than single burst shot, takes time to charge), Charge Attack, Rapid Fire Multi Shot, Ring Spin
Favourite Weapon: Claws
Likes: Freedom, speed
Dislikes: Slavery
Really Dislikes: Camilla Diamond (In fact, she is terrified of her)
Theme(s): 'AI Viola', Monochrome
Background/Bio: Learning to be free... Delilah is (barely) a bioweapon, born and raised within the laboratories of Yamato. Much of her life was spent within the confines of the corporation, knowing little to nothing of the outside world, only to obey her masters. As such, she knew nothing of the idea of freedom, or what it's like to be an individual. Partly from the programming, and mostly from her upbrining, Delilah when on front of her masters comes off as demure, shy, and submissive.
For the most part, her appearance is that of a human being, save for her cat eyes, cat ears, claws, fangs, and tail. While possessing catlike reflexes, speed, and strength, the fact that she still retains most of her human traits compared to the average bioweapon, along with her shy nature, indicates that Delilah was not simply bred as a new soldier. Primarily used for pleasure, it was during the formation of Cho's special Nephtis team that she first met Camilla Diamond. From just these short few days, Delilah saw the devil and was terrified for her life. Though unnoticed, Delilah was involved with a number of important activities in Yamato's plans, and was a witness of Yamato's final hour. Since the battle between Yamato and the UEG/AOL/Space Force alliance, Delilah's whereabouts have all but vanished... until three years later.
In spite of Delilah's submissiveness, this catgirl is a tough woman. Afterall, she is, in essence, a bioweapon, and has been trained heavily in the way of combat. As such, she is capable of using her feline reflexes to dodge and fight her way against her enemies. Her favourite tactics involve setting her opponents up for her claws, and slash them to ribbons. The blue and white Nephtis armour she wears is perfect for this tactic, further enhancing her speed and strength to deal with opponents at melee range, while possessing weaponry strong enough to deal with opponents at long range.
Currently, there are sitings of a stray Nephtis Girl with cat ears and a tail wandering about, seemingly lost and withdrawn. Her actual whereabouts, and where she goes, is anyone's guess.

Name: Wind Age: 21 Sex: Male Hair Color & Style: Mid-neck length, messy, dark brown hair. Eye Color: Blue Height: 6' Weight: 155 Race: Human Armor: RGZ-91B Re-GZ Custom Armor Type: Exo-suit (formerly partial morpher, but over time the mechanisim has broken and it can now only change from armor to flight mode and back) Armaments: beam assault rifle x 1, large mega beam cannon x 1, beam gun x 2, hyper beam saber/beam cannon x 2, vulcan gun x 2, 3-tube missile launcher x 2
Likes: Honesty, Sara Dislikes: Pain, loneliness
Background/Bio: Wind was one of the troopers in the original group on the Shining Hope. It was in those times that he found a woman that he may have loved, Sara. After the final battle with Yamato, Wind and Sara were asked to help the Alliance defeat warlords preying upon the supply transports bringing food and other nessicary items to those in their territories, and selling them back for inflated prices. It was here that Sara was shot down, and died. After this, Wind went into seclusion, rarely using his armor, or even seeing other people on a regular basis.

After the fall of Yamato, Karie, a very bright young woman, decided to join the millitary. She wanted to help people in any way possible, so what better way than to join up with the alliance? She has slowly risen up the ranks, and has a pretty good future ahead of her, assuming she doesn't screw things up.
