Shattered Realms

The reddish-orange-tinged figure stared uncomfortably at the other representatives of their own elemental affinities. "We don't have time for this!" it hissed, pointing accusingly at the Order-aligned mage. "You can't seriously mean that the disappearance of Dark and Light within a week together was a coincedence! You're insane!"
"I don't think your conspiracy theories belong in this. It's bad enough that Dark and Light have disappeared; we don't need our own arguements causing more issues here. If I recall correctly, the planescape's gotten... different... since their disappearances," the brown cloaked guy stated calmly.
"I think the various denizens of the planes've noticed, too. Perhaps get a group of them to deal with it?" suggested the representative of Air.
"You mean send them out to get killed off while you guys pick someone to blame?" muttered the current replacement for Dark.
"...possibly."
"Look, I don't care about your own agendas; I'm leaving." growled Floop. "I agree with Air, by the way. Just sitting here and complaining doesn't get things done, however, and I feel that since none of us have any actual power, this is just STUPID."
"Whatever, dude, just don't go get yourself blown up like about half of the planes. We've got enough messes without trying to clean up anything you start."

Rules:
The usual, duh.
However, your character's power level does not have much of a cap(if you're at or above that of the main bad guy(WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED UNTIL IT APPEARS DOING STUFF), though, you'll be yelled at), but do note that staying around the average level of player characters and vaguely-important non-player characters as far as *usage* goes would be exceedingly beneficial for your character, as I'm sure that getting killed off by an NPC is not on your to-do list.
No spontaneous reanimations unless you've got a really really good reason. Having a Phoenix Down up your nose is not a good reason.
Please please PLEASE send me the details if you're going for a plot twist. I know where I'm going with this, though I'll probably screw up DMing later, so yeah.


Elements:
Fire - Tending towards Chaotic alignments, they're usually impulsive. Prefered classes are mages.
Water - Tends towards Neutral, prefered class is Druid.
Earth - Tends towards Neutral, prefered classes are Druid and Bard.
Air - Usually Neutral.
Dark - Tends towards Evil or Neutral. Usually destructive.
Light - Tends towards Good or Neutral. Light elemented people are usually charismatic and rarely dislike the others, oddly enough.
Order - Always lawful, Order-aligned tend to plan considerably. They typically are paladins or clerics.
Chaos - Always chaotic, Chaos elemented creatures tend to be much less predictable than other elemented. Usually mages, whenever they glow, they tend towards bright warm colours.

Name: Floop, presumably. Well, it answers to Floop, so it's okay.
Elemental Affinity: Chaos
Position: Previous chaos representative, until running off and trying to form an adventuring party...
Class: Black Mage/Blue Mage. Also known to have crossclassed quite a bit...
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral, shading to Chaotic Evil
Appearance: Floop is a fairly stereotypically dressed mage, wearing a dark purple/grey robe and a large floppy greyish blue hat with a black ribbon around the base, complete with a Chocobo feather(black, of course). Its hands tend towards a claw-like shape, though its appearance is fluid, rarely staying the same between castings of anything in particular. Most of it, however, is featureless.
Other: Floop carries a plushie that looks almost exactly like itself, except with dark purple bat wings. The plushie tends to move around and act almost as a second Floop, though what the plushie is, even Floop doesn't know.


The figure frowned uncertainly at the notice board, shoving a small thumbtack into a notice.
Mage Adventurer looking for assistance to save the world. Meet at...
"Hmmm," said mage muttered, tapping the faded off-white note with a purple floating claw. It sighed, dark purple bat-like wings flapping slowly. The creature paused for a few moments, then scribbled in outside wherever you happen to see this note, on next Thursday. Bring anything valuble, edible, and/or useful; you'll probably need it.
Grinning happily, Floop floated towards another part of the cork bulletin board, placing a very similar note, which seemed to be directed at anyone wanting to wreak havoc. Like the first, it contained the same line about Thursdays.


A few days later, Floop sighed as it stood outside of an inn which, for a few days at least, had been located in several planes.

Name: Lijierfai(lee-ZHEHR-fye)
Species: Human
Elemental Affinity: Fire
Position: None.
Class: Mage.
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Appearance: Dressed in dark pants stitched crudely with many pockets, several of which bulge with unseen items inside. On her belt hangs a set of daggers, ranging from as thin as a pencil to as wide as her hand, all sheathed, their matching handles have a golden tint. Her top generally is dark-colored, with long sleeves. Burn marks have worn away patches of her clothing, leaving only charred threads and threadbare patches.
Physically, Lijierfai is tall and thin, her pale skin stands out against her often dark clothing. Two bracelets always adorn her wrists and occasionally earrings; she changes them according to her preference. Her eyes are a dark brown color, often slightly narrowed because of her bad vision. She has dirty blond hair, ranging from a muted yellow to a dark, grayish yellow.

Name: Dezz'uu
Species*: Lich
Elemental Affinity*: Order
Position?*: YER MAW
Class*: Paladin
Alignment*: Lawful Good
Appearance(optional): Being a lich, he wouldn't normally be accepted into the Silver Hand (yay WCIII!). To hide his undead-ness-ly-ness, he wears a white mask with a few crescent shaped yellow marks on it with slits for eye holes (despite have eyes). He also wears a white cloak above gold and silvery plate armor, and has large yellow and white shoulder plates. Weapon of choice is his maul made from Felwood trees and hardened gold.
Other(optional): Pie.

Name: Sireafi (SI-er-AUF-ee)
Species*: Hume
Elemental Affinity*: Dark
Position?*: None
Class*: Dark Knight
Alignment*: Neutral
Appearance(optional): A normal knight suit, but in black. There are small spikes around the armour, but is used as a ameans of decoration. She wields a long black sword, with many silver-colored decorations. When she takes off her top-head guard, she is shown to have blond hair, blue eyes, and pale skin.

((Keta, Desu, accepted. SE, you're accepted but please make sense.

POST NOWS.))

Floop tapped its claw-like fingers on the wall, clearly bored. Come on, someone needs to show. Otherwise I'm going to show that I'm a total idiot---- hey, look! A SHINY! It stared at the one-gil coin that appeared to be hot-glued to the ground as someone's cruel joke, then waited, still watching the coin for any signs of movement..

Name: Cyric
Species: Undead (Demilich)
Elemental Affinity: Dark/Unholy/Shadow... whatever y'want to call it.
Position: Nothing... official.
Class: Black Wizard/Time Wizard (although 'Wizard/Archmage' would be a better term, since he uses the D&D rules more than the FF ones)
Alignment: Chaotic Evil, shading to Neutral Evil
Appearance: Pretty much however he wants, thanks to a Permenancy'd epic spell he cast on becoming a Demilich. He usually looks like a generic Black Mage, but with blood-red robes, and a black hat. His eyes are red (he does that for a reason, see below), though when he's really annoyed, or casting an upper-tier spell they tend to flicker or shade to octarine, respectively.
Other: He makes his eyes red because it's cliché. And, by his reasoning, "people generally underestimate clichéd people". And by 'people' he means 'entities'.

((Accepted, and I'm using "Dark". Merf.

))

((Oh, yes. I'd just like to make this clear: Cyric is a Demilich. That is to say, he's immune to quite a lot of things. I'm not going to tell you what they are, until someone tries to use them on him. Then I'll tell you. For now, it'd be best just to treat him as if he were wearing a Ribbon.))

Alright, Floop, said Cyric, literally appearing out of nowhere. I know you. If something's threatening you, you don't assemble an adventuring party, you just obliterate it... so if you *are* assembling an adventuring party, then it must be quite a large threat indeed... so large you couldn't kill it yourself... and if you couldn't, then I doubt I could either... and if your problem's the same as my problem... then we'll be needing all the help we can get.

~Or, possibly, it's in my own agenda to *not* do it myself because then I'll tick off quite a bit, and I don't like soloing really really really really REALLY big entities that could probably blow me up. Nyah. But that would be implying I know what the crap it is. Which I don't. And what *is* your problem currently, then, anyway?~ Floop shrugged and waved at Cyric.

Worlds not being there. I usually pass through a few worlds on my way to Spira from Azeroth. So, as you might expect, I was rather surprised when one of them turned out not to be there. So, I reasoned thus; if anything knew what the deal was, it'd be you. But, it seems even you don't. So I'm out of ideas.

~Yeah, umm. I think that something really not great for the immediate future of all concerned's going on. I dunno what, but it's looks kinda... not good. Neither does the colour of the sky; it's this awful blue. I don't like that shade of blue. It looks so... blue.~

~Hmm... I can only hope I won't have to deal with too many non-mages on this... whatever it is. Not a quest. NEVER a quest. It isn't a request from anyone so, technically speaking, it isn't a mission, either... a journey? Eww. No. Wait... what's this about the sky? You don't like blue? What's wrong with blue?~


((Desu, a question: why would a paladin be using a maul made of Felwood trees? That place's almost as corrupted as the Plaguelands... okay, so that's an exaggeration. But still.))

(Yes, I will now. I've thought of my position, could it be 'Dark Representative Replacement'?)

((I randomly took a section of forest by Hyjal...I didn't think...>_> And, remember, there was a side quest during the Night Elf campaign to...er..."un-corrupt" part of Felwood.))

Desu was walking down the street, looking at his tome full of Holy spells when he spotted Floop and Cyric. He continued to take large strides toward them, grinning and holding his maul confidently in case of a battle. "Oh, what a coincidence...Floop, Cyric. What a surprise. What are you doing here?" The voice sounded slightly muffled from behind his mask, which was in turn disguised by his cloak.

((Yes, but they don't tend to live long. x3 *coughs, Mutes self to prevent spoiling*))

"I'm bakin' a cake! Well, actually, I'm quite clearly not. The question is, what are you doing here? I'm here on.... business. And it's not Happy Fun Movie Time, either," Floop said warily, frowning at the paladin. ~What's 'e doing 'ere? And it's "business". Or something. "Task"? "Unquest"? Non-mages are annoying, but what are you to do? There's gotta be someone to take the hits. And I'm perfectly fine with blue.~ It pointed at sky, almost accusingly. ~I just don't like that happy clear sky blue that you get in the middle of the summer and it's not going to storm anytime soon.... It makes me think about... well. some people we probably do not want to have anything to deal with. I'll explain when I think that most of the people who're coming are 'ere, 'kay?~
