MOST WANTED CHARACTERS
Ozma, Captain Hook, Robin Hood, and Many More!
For as long as anyone can remember, the City has always been one of the largest metropolitan centers in the world. It has had its share of glory and decline, but none so great as the age following the founding of OzCorp. Michael Ozma was no man of magic, but he might as well have been, for the technological wonders he wrought.
Today, however, the Gilded Age is long past. OzCorp, now led by Ozma's three daughters, has become corrupt, and the City has fallen from its glory days. Crime and drugs now rule the streets, though some aristocrats continue to live above it all.
Inspired by folk-lore and fairy-tales, Not So Far Away is a unique Role-Playing World that brings characters from fairytale, folklore, and mythology from around the world together into an ever-expanding universe. | | 3:26p |

Definition of METEMPSYCHOSIS
: the passing of the soul at death into another body |
Think of any long-gone deity from mythology. Now imagine that they aren't truly gone but instead that their essence lives on...is reincarnated inside of that guy who sits next to you on the bus every day. Or Maureen from Accounting. Or maybe even inside of you.
The old deities once existed, once walked the Earth, and mortals trembled at their names. Long ago, they each slowly faded out, their existence only remembered as fables and tales. During this decline, one deity gathered up and called upon his or her last reserves of power and influence to create a reprieve, of sorts, for them all. They would find their essence--their souls if you will--not dissipated amongst the matter of the Universe but instead reborn inside a mortal body. The gods would be mortal, yes, their power would be greatly diminished, yes, and they might not even remember what they once were, but they would at least exist. |

eksperimentis.  | for a better world.Seven years ago, a mysterious and completely random phenomenon occurred: Pokémon transformed into humans. The reason for such an event is unknown even to this day, despite the continued efforts of many researchers and scientists. One individual was motivated by such an immense desire that he took his studies to an outrageous level. That was the Leader. Two years later, the Leader rose and announced his name and objective to the masses: to discover how and why Pokémon became humans. His methods were conventional enough in the beginning, but soon his means to accomplish this goal became highly controversial. Unorthodox human experimentation and exploitation came into play. He used money, power, the invitation to kill to rope in support and gave him a better opportunity to actually commit his research. Of course, the biggest motivation for his Pokémon-based army was the promise to become their true selves again. An all-out war eventually broke out between his followers and the opposition, dubbed "the resistance" by the media and largely composed of emotion-driven Pokémon who wanted to put an end to the harm against their kind. Others took a stand through financial and political means, but it was bloodshed that ended the war. With the victory of the resistance, and the experiments were shut down indefinitely. Those who remained of the Leader's army were arrested and put on trial; some were executed, but most managed to escape. But the Leader? No one knows where he disappeared to. Still, things were looking up... Five years later, the peace brought by the war was suddenly and utterly broken. The Leader appeared again, alive and well, and once again made known his intentions to learn the truth. His methods have not changed; countless Pokémon have so quickly become victim to his lethal methods, and the number is growing. Finding peace another time in such disarray and torment will require a miracle. Welcome to Eksperimentis, a Pokémon-based OC RP. We are looking for potential new players who are willing to stick it out with us. The game is heavily plot-driven and we require a larger cast to make that plot as enriching as possible. It is also fairly lax in general (as far as gameplay goes), but the nature of the story requires an amount of maturity and a serious mindset. If you would like to contact a mod for more information before considering an application, please feel free to do so. We are hoping to see you there!
