At the center of reality stands the mythical Spiral Tower and the Spiral King himself sits on a throne in the room at the very top of the tower. His is the ruler of all of reality but the walls the separate the many worlds are thinning. Across the All-World is you and a group of humans with extraordinary power. You don't remember how you got where you are but you know it isn't your world or your time.

And as you get closer to the Spiral Tower, the forces arrayed against you and your band will grow larger and more powerful but for now, this is the dawn of civilization.
------------
Translation

Basically, the players are a group who are heading to the Spiral Tower to overthrow the Spiral King who is weakening the walls between worlds. If the walls between two worlds are destroyed, the universes collide. The Spiral King is trying to do this across all of reality.

The thinning of the walls if noticeable for your group as they are able to travel through these walls on their way to the Spiral Tower.

OR, the players can stay in time line and accept the Spiral King's offer that he won't let them die provided they don't go too far...
--------------

This game is played in a chatroom.


Skill Points

Basically, skill points regenerate 5 per turn, 50 at the conclusion of a mission. Regeneration increases as you level up. Skill points is how much it costs to use any of you more "exotic" powers.

Skills

When you "create" a new skill, I will evaluate the power of it and the SP drain.

How do you get ancillaries, weapons and signature moves?
 
Signature move was a joke when I posted it, since I am being Capt. Falcon. Weapons are our primary powers.

Fair enough. What about the others, though?

Ancillaries you don't have to post yet since you'll get those later in the game. Weapons, well, if your primary/secondary comes with a weapon, you get a weapon. Otherwise, you can really just grab them during the game as you go.

You know what, signature powers look cool. I might work those in somehow.
 
Name: Lord Robert van Skittles
Origin: Natural
Class: Stalker
Primary: Ninja Blade
Secondary: Super Reflexes
Bio: Lord Robert van Skittles is an 19th century nobleman who happens to live in England. He is an eccentric fellow, who follows a quasi-code of chivalry. It is not known if he is actually English, however, as he just randomly showed up outside of a deli in Southampton on the cold day of December 14, 1823. No one knows where he came from; some believe England, others America, a few point to Bavaria, and one rather eccentric (drunk) dock worker even claims that van Skittles is a Greco-Danish hit-man. What is even more mysterious is his amazing swordsmanship and seemingly superhuman reflexes, the likes of which the European world has never seen. Still, these skills have proven very useful, as evidence in his participation in the defeat of Swedish Imperial forces during the crucial Battle of Bombay in the Anglo-Swedish War in 1828. This earned him a knighthood and minor lordship, as well as permanent employment to the British Crown.

One day, while out hunting in the fields near his estate outside Oxford, the ground beneath van Skittles suddenly opened up, and before he could react, he was flung from his world and deposited... somewhere. The mysterious man is in a mysterious land, and he needs to figure out how to get home.

Okay - I've changed my post to include a weapon.
 
Fine, I will change it.
