So the basic idea is that there is an interdimensional battleground called "the Nexus" and people from all kinds of different dimensions go there to fight with their pokémon espers familiars Battle Avatars just for the heck of it?

K, I guess thats cool.




Here's my character and his Battle Avatar:

Name: Johnny Jay Star
Occupation: "Enlightened" hippie/meditation teacher
Background: Johnny Jay Star is a hippie, who meditates alot (light use of drugs involved (Disclaimer: Winners don't do drugs!) ) and has found what he thinks to be true enlightenment and an existence of a permanent mellow feeling. When he is on a trip to the Nexus he truly thinks that he is "totally tripping out man" and he thinks that his Battle Avatar is just his imaginary friend.
Description: Very colorful clothing that you would imagine that The Beatles would have worn during their drug period. His hair is groomed to an afro and he is wearing a headband and round,polarised sunglasses all the time.

Name: Mr. Fluffers.
Element: Air.
Symbol: F, for (acid) Fantasy.
Form: a Sentient pink cloud with a mellowly smiling face.
Size: Gigantic, big enough to see from hundreds of miles away.


I hope this character isn't too whack .

@Eugen: Coshma LOOOOOOL

@Mytical: I added that ability (modified by you) to my avatar's post on page 1

And I just made my first RP post as well. Be nice people, I don't think I'm a good RP-er (that's why I joined this "weird" one)

LOL, it's you who didn't want to leave Coshma out of this, since you named him like that

But I don't intend to make fun of Coshma anyway, that's why I didn't even want to explain it myself

wait, I'm confused...

Isn't the nexus just a collective term for the road that connects the planes?

Or is it also an arena-like spot which you have to pass through each and every time just to get to some place?

Or is it a road at all?

EDIT: I just realised i am the only guy who has actual full flight capabilities

Thanks, mysty!

How I imagined the Nexus:

The Nexus is built up by different arenas, each and every arena has two portals, one leading back and one leading closer to the middle.

To get to the middle, you'll have to fight your way through a high number of arenas, or realms, as I'd like to call it.

I'm a bit confused here too actually...

Are the arenas realms such as the characters' homeworlds? Only that it's the homeworld of other beasts/people? Or are the arenas simply a complex of challenges created to keep people from reaching the center?

I hope it's the latter.

Uhmm... is it possible for a character to die permanently in here? (I can only imagine the answer to be yes, but i can still ask.)

EDIT: because of post limit reasons, I'll respond to ash's below post here. It's possible that a BA can't die, just beat up really, really bad with all the abilities reset and a penalty or something... It's just hard for me to believe that someone can be kicked out the rp for completely arbitrary reasons.

EDIT2: I knew they were corridors!

Let me quote Mythical here.
Quote:
People can freely travel from their own world to the Nexus, but seperating them from other worlds is a enormous arena/maze.  Many fights and trials await anybody who dares enter.

None of the worlds are designed by me.  The Nexus also changes when new worlds are connected, or ... disconnected.  So it has no set form.  ...  The object is to make it to the center of the Arena, but the catch is ... never know what you can expect.  Since there are a LOT of worlds connected to it.


Thus, I see the Nexus as a set of otherworldly spatial planes, time corridors, energetic fields etcetera which functions as a giant net of tunnels between other realms and dimensions. So the Nexus can lead you to various worlds, but only the Arena is inside the Nexus itself. All the other worlds are simply connected to the Nexus, and have their own independent existence, they're not just levels on the way to the Arena. Of course, you'd need to pass through several worlds in order to reach the center of the Nexus, but that doesn't mean all those worlds can't have their own civilizations etc...
Am I right?

I hope you're right

I'm guessing that people from outside the Nexus are the only ones who actually want to reach the center... since it would be extremly easy for a person from a realm close to the center to get there, or maybe they're under some sort of restriction...

Who says a realm can be close to the center?
The Nexus isn't a physical thing. It's not exactly material. Maybe a same portal will take two different persons in two different places. Maybe not. Each world can have thousands of possible entrances and exits. When someone who has traveled a long way reaches a portal, it will take him to a different place than it would someone who is just starting from that world.
Space and time are rather distorted there... I think

Oh for crying out loud people!

Check M.E.G.A. and Gladerion and you see the Nexus.
It is there in both of them and it is EVERYTHING!

(Just saying that bak is right here. )

Well, the Nexus isn't that important in Gladerion, primarily because the protagonists are selfish sociopaths who could care less about important things.
