:The Universe's Demise:
:Storyline:
Many, many years ago...and I mean, many many years ago...like, a ton of years ago, the Universe was created. But not the one you're thinking of. When I say, the Universe, I mean the 4 people who rule our very existence. They have actual names, but they're too hard to pronounce, so we just refer to them as their celestial colors, Blue, White, Orange, and Red. You know the stars? The blue ones, and the white ones, and the orange and reds? Well, they were made in honor of the Universe. The stars, from hottest to coldest, represent which of the Universe is the strongest and the weakest.
The Universe is also evil.
Have you ever heard that saying, power corrupts, and absolute power absolutely corrupts? Well, how much more power can you get when you rule the very existence of everything? Not much more. Not much more at all.
There are also two forces that rule certain parts of what the Universe rules to share the burden of ruling everything. They are called the Pures and the Loyals. The Pures are the stars of this story. No joy, sadness, loyalty, betrayal, death, and life would exist without the Pures. All things good and all things bad wouldn't exist without the Pures.
The Pures were made shortly after the Universe formed, and they, along with the Universe and the Loyals, are immortal. That is to say, they couldn't die of old age. They could still die by battle or illness though.
Recently, a cataclysmic event occurred. More than twenty of the Pures were killed, and because of this, more than twenty random people would have to fill their shoes.

:Extra Bits of Info:
The Universe is behind the murders, and the first flame has been lit. A couple are aware of the Universe's involvement, and are deeply resentful of them. Many of the ones killed have been around since nearly the beginning of time, so they were lifelong friends of the others. Another reason this was such a big deal was that before this, only 3 of the Pures had ever died. So this was a HUGE deal. None of the Pures were ready to train the new ones to come.
:Forms:
Every Pure has two forms:
Their Main Form
Their Secondary Form
The Main Form is something that is pretty big, such as, Loyalty, Joy, Wrath, etc.. These forms are the ones that most heavily impact the Pure Form Appearance, (just wait a bit), and also are what your powers will gravitate around a bit more. Memory, for instance, has the ability to look at the memories of others, remove them, alter them, etc.. However, they also have to impact the character on a daily basis, such as, if a Memory is too powerful, Memory will get sucked into it whether or not she wanted to. The powers also have to have the potential to be harmful to others, and if you want to, the character themselves. Again, if the memory is too powerful, Memory will have all the injuries that occurred in the memory happen to her like she was there herself. She can also remove or alter memories which can be very bad for others. The Main Form is also unique.
The Second Form is less consequential. Usually it only slightly affects their Pure Form Appearance, and only one or two powers that revolve around their second form. Memory's second form is grief, so she can inflict grief on her opponent. The Second Form also has to be something that is generally caused by the Main Form. Some Pure's Main Forms are things that you may not like, such as wrath, so their Second Form is something good to balance it out, like Savor (savoring the good times). Second Forms can also be the same as someone's else.
:Pure Form Appearance:
Maybe you are Loyalty with a shining suit of armor, maybe you are Memory with silver eyes and runes, or maybe you are Time with his cloak, hourglass, and tophat. Whatever the case, you Pure Form Appearance only appears in the Pure Lands, and cannot look too much like someone already playing. Also, the Appearances can have cool powers of themselves, like Time who's cloak seems to go slow-mode in the wind, or Memory who will uncontrollably look like someone deceased from your past (they will only appear like that to the character).
:Mentors:
After you have learned all you can, you can become a Mentor. Mentors will teach you how to deal with your powers that will be manifesting soon. They will also teach you basic skills that anyone has learned!
:Apprentices:
You have just learned of your destiny. What powers await you? What skills will you learn?! The power of cleaning up Manticore poop. And how to control time itself! Nah, sorry, Time is already taken.
