“We’re not human anymore.”
It started when we were chosen. Chosen to keep our world safe from the monsters hiding in the dark corners, under the bed, and in the haunted closets. The evil we feared as children, the glowing eyes we saw in our closets from under our sheets, the horror stories we were told from the older teenagers of the haunted house on top of the hill. All real. All terrifying. All of it could collapse our world into a void of nothing unless we make sure to keep a tight lid on the energies of our world. To keep the balance. That is why we’re chosen. Chosen to become Paragons.
“We swear on this day to the obligations of the Paragon Agency to uphold and protect the balance of our world, to defend against malicious attacks against the balance of our world between Humans and Anthropoids.”
Anthropoids are the monsters we’ve feared all our lives. The ones we truly see when we’re children even though our parents tell us it was just a nightmare. They’re the ones that haunt the abandoned house down the street. The ones that drove those people crazy, to do those horrible things and cause terrifying calamities. They find ways to distort the balance of energies in our world and it’s our job and duty to stop them.
Not all Anthropoids are the same though. Many will join our ranks at the Paragon Agency and work with us, guide us, and teach us to protect and defend. Guardian angels, legends, benevolent spirits. They exist and they care about the future of our world. We work together to face against those who seek our destruction.
“We fight for the balance.”
In this rp, you take the role of a Paragon and their companion working to keep the world safe from those who would cause havoc. During the day, you may continue your life as normal, but at night you will find yourself in the realm of the supernatural, fighting aggressive creatures and fixing the rifts between their world and the human world.
- Paragons are chosen by a mythological patron and are gifted with powers and tools to fight and defend themselves from threats in the supernatural world.
- Alongside your character, a companion will accompany you on your journey.
- At first your characters will be mostly human with maybe one weak power in the the human world, but with training and time your character will change.
- Paragons lose their need for sleep or food, though they can eat and drink, the urge quickly disappears as your character gets stronger.
- In the human world your character is still basically mortal, but they will see and feel the presence of supernatural beings.
There's a lot in store for this rp and the pace will be pretty relaxed. I hope you'll join in and have fun.
