So that there is something for everyone, we've decided to make different RP threads, all in alternate universes to each other. At the moment there are 12 different RP universes.
Remember: A character from one world cannot start RPing in another as if it was the same world. You can use the same character in each world (same name, appearance, abilities and pre-RP background history), but you can't act as if an event which happened in one world happened in another one, because it didn't happen there. You can choose to act out the same event in two worlds if you want, but can't then involve someone else's characters in that history unless that RPer does the same.
Heroes RP World 1 - Redemption vs Revenge
This world is currently set after evolved humans were revealed to the world. The New Company decided that they would wait and see what happens, instead of interfering immediately. The eventual reaction has been mixed, with some humans accepting the new revelation and some fearful.
Previous events in this world have included Volume 4 (being Hunted), then seeking redemption or revenge, and then the Carnival.
You can only have 1 ability per character here, as in the show. You can also have one character with an ability which enables him or her to have several abilities at once (eg. Intuitive Aptitude, Empathic Mimicry, Conscious Mimicry, Power Absorption, Aura Absorption etc. There is a thread in the World 1 Section regarding these abilities - please check it if planning to have a multi, and make sure the character has enough weaknesses to balance the power level)
One more thing: In this world, we have avoided the main events and the canon characters that are involved with them. Our own characters have taken up roles in canon events instead. We can interact with minor characters, so long as they're kept alive and eventually returned to canon. Most of us avoid canon altogether.
Heroes RP World 2 - Reflections
This one is called Reflections as it is exactly the same as the original one on the BBC thread. This world is by now set over a decade since the fall of B26. There are many non-canon groups such as the good old Organisation, and evil groups fighting against it or being dealt with by it. Basically, this is another thread to play exactly we did on the other site, with the same characters. This thread, and the other site, are exactly the same, set in the same world, with the same rules.
You can normally have 3 abilities maximum per character. Here are the options:
Maximum 3= 1 powerful + 2 useful, 2 mid-powerful + 1 useful, 1 mid-powerful + 2 useful, 3 useful.
2 powers= 1 powerful + 1 useful, 2 mid-powerful, 1 mid-powerful + 1 useful, 2 useful.
1 power= 1 powerful, 1 mid-powerful, 1 useful.
However, a multiple character can be RPed, if the moderator (Wayward Daughter) agrees beforehand. Characters can also occasionally have more than 3, if there is an adequate explanation behind it, and you have proven that it won't make the character a Mary Sue.
The classification powerful means all those big blasty blasty boom boom pow abilities, and the strong mental ones.
The classification useful means those simple handy ones (eg. Eidetic Memory, Omnilingualism, Savantism, Clairvoyance etc).
The classification mid-powerful means all those in between.
Apocalypses do not have to be applied for here. You can just spring them on everyone and watch them panic, like you did on the other site. Almost anything goes here, so you can have many babies with your favourite canon characters or blow up a few cities if you like. It's a mad, mad world.
Heroes RP World 3 - Renegade
You can have 4 abilities maximum per character here (see above for options).
In this world, the characters have stopped the explosion, and went on to fight Primatech. The virus was nearly released, and is by now dealt with. However, complications might still arise. Nearly 3 years have passed since the beginning of the RP.
Heroes RP World 4 - Vampires and Werecreatures
Here you can be a vampire, a werewolf, a werecat, a werebear, a hybrid or a human. Vampires are split into two separate types, information on the different types are available here.
You can have one ability, and gain one from a mate if your character is a vampire (unless the mate is a type 1 vampire), but some do not. To have an ability, you should ask the world moderator (Pippy) who will then decide at random. Werewolves generally travel in packs, and vampires are in covens, but wolves can join covens, though rarely. Hybrids belong to both. Please do not use any characters from Twilight.
If you drink another vampire or werewolf's blood, you immediately share abilities. So he has hers and she has his as well. This normally occurs within pairings. However, only type 2 vampires can have their blood drank, as type 1s no longer have blood.
The rulers of this world are the Goldston Wolfpack for weres, and the Firelock Coven for vampires. They've outlawed killing humans to feed.
Heroes RP World 5 - The Formula
This world is set in the future of Volume 3, leading up to the events of I Am Become Death. The formula has been released, and people are fighting against Pinehearst. The formula was released approximately 2 years ago by now.
You are only allowed one ability, and absorbing powers are an exception, but allowed.
RP World 6 - Awakened
In this world, all kinds of monsters exist, and the majority of the characters dedicate their lives to hunting and fighting these. Some are simply humans who have survived attacks, or lost loved ones to attacks, while others have their own powers and special skills to assist them, or are even born to hunt. Some gain such abilities as a result of hunting.
RP World 7 - Timeslip
This is set in a world where people have travelled from a disastrous future and are now attempting to change it, preventing their future from occurring. Some current time characters are also helping. Several have thus got 2 versions of themselves in the present time, their younger self and their future self.
Within the disastrous future, abilities were exposed, then the government deemed them dangerous and those who possessed them non-human. Their rights were removed, they were imprisoned and a system of EH slavery was imposed after means of negating some abilities were discovered. Some individuals escaped and began fighting back. A war broke out.
4 abilities per character.
RP World 8 - Brave New World
This is currently set in a BNW, similar to World 1, with abilities exposed. There's a New Company set up to try to regulate this. Pinehearst tried to release the formula and were stopped by the New Company, but a villainous group stole it. The New Company is currently trying to deal with the villains who have gained artificial abilities.
The world began with characters manifesting, and soon learning of the Shanti virus. They tried to stop it's release, but failed. Odessa was put into quarantine. EHs were hunted after the government learned of their connection to the virus, but this was stopped after some EHs stopped an assassination attempt on the President. Maya used her ability to destroy the virus, but this exposed abilities. Pinehearst began, tried to develop the formula, and were stopped.
This world has 5 abilities to each canon. If you want a multiple ability, PM one of the mods or admins to ask permission.
World 9 - Mythical Crossover
This world can contain anything from any myth or fantasy. You can also make it up, if you like.
Characters can either have 1 ability, or belong to a race/species which is magical.
World 10 - School
This world is set in a school for specials of different sorts. It currently contains EHs, vampyres, Atari, necromancers, nymphs and Sirens, but anything goes, really. The school was attacked by a group of humans attempting to capture the students, and the survivors raided them in order to free the captives. One of the students was attacked by an enemy of her species, trying to kill her, and several of her friends helped her defeat it.
In this world, the number of abilities and traits depends upon the species. See the species thread within the world for more details.
World 11 - Villains
This world was set during Volume 3, and followed the battle between Primatech and Pinehearst. It ended mainly as canon. Then the world proceeded to a Volume 4 SL afterwards. The plane crash occurred and the characters are currently hiding from B26 or planning to fight back.
In this world, characters can possess 4 abilities.
World 12 - Spies
In this world, characters are spies with supernatural abilities, either working for EH departments within the CIA, NSA, FBI etc, or in their own freelance companies.
3 abilities per character.
Remember: A character from one world cannot start RPing in another as if it was the same world. You can use the same character in each world (same name, appearance, abilities and pre-RP background history), but you can't act as if an event which happened in one world happened in another one, because it didn't happen there.
