Character Creation: Welcome to Promise of the Rose Hello! Welcome to Promise of the Rose. Thank you for taking interest in creating a character, and a narrative with us! Our staff are dedicated in helping you tell your character's story, ups and downs, positives -and yes- negatives. Please make sure you have read the Rules as well as acknowledging our game has a small "Magical Girl System" to assist with figuring out battles and the like. Our game system is very simple and thus, it does not cover every possibility, that's why our staff are called "Storytellers" (Or Assistant Storytellers) to help do just that- tell the story.
By creating a character with us, be it a civilian, a magical girl or boy, or something in between, you agree to abide by the staff decisions when it comes to story decisions and gentle corrections on posts that may not be with in the realms of reality in our narrative.
*Please note* While some people may become "villains" in our game, this is a "temporary" arrangement- either they will be healed, or, "taken care of." as needed. This is a "Hero/Heroine" Focused tale and while "corruption" to chaos may happen (per the original series of Sailor Moon!) Ultimately good will prevail- even if it does come at some cost (such as death.)
Thankfully in Sailor Moon "Death" is rarely permanent and something of just an inconvenience.
Still willing to come aboard?
WELCOME.

Character Inspiration Great! Welcome Aboard!
All characters will begin the game in Crystal Tokyo. Your character may become a Sailor Senshi (Females) or a Guardian Knight (Male). Your character will, most likely, be at one point or another associated to a character from canon or to the past lives of the game. This is part of our game and will be determined by the staff and the player at such time it’s shown the character (and player) are going to be around for a while and not just passing through.
We are looking for specific things for our “magical” types- including, but not limited to, heroic tendencies. There are many kinds of “Heroes” but to just spell it out for you all Sailor Senshi and Guardian Knights must have a sense of “Justice” and wanting to do the right thing. They have some nod of courage, determination, compassion, and loyalty. They are not going to run screaming the other way when other people are in danger. In fact, Sailor Senshi and Guardian Knights who, genuinely do NOT WANT TO TRANSFORM cannot transform! So don’t make a character that, ultimately, won’t be able to transform!
But even if you don’t want to be a magical someone, you can always be a part of the game. There are Crystal Families, or the Nobility of the crystal cities who claim to be descended from the original Sailor Senshi and Shitennou of the Neo Crystal Millennium. These royal families have different things they are interested in and are considered nobility- and there’s always just “regular people” who are living “regular lives” elsewhere.
We are asking that people play characters between 18-25 years old that are going to the Imbrium Mare Academy, the Royal College of Crystal Tokyo and the premiere place of education. This college setting will give our characters all a reason to interact, even if it’s just on the base level of classes or meeting in the halls. If you want, you can take a job on campus, and not go to school but your character should have some reason to consistently be located near campus or apart of it (say a parent is a professor even if you, yourself, do not attend….etc)
Finally you can be from a different Crystal City then Tokyo. There are 7 Crystal Cities each with their own unique culture and atmosphere as well as Government. These cities are already established and documentation can be found in the Crystal Cities Section. So too can more information be found on the 10 Crystal Families.
Being a part of a Crystal Family OR from a different city is up to the player and are purely optional for additional plotline ties.
Optional Occupations
Your character is probably going to school at the Academy. However, some characters may have additional jobs, such as taking over a parent’s company or run down little shop- to working at a shrine or a part time job at a convenience store. While it’s up to you where your character might have a job, the staff will happily provide locations or areas where you might find more information/storylines/etc. Please note that the staff may request you adjust your choice if they feel there’s a better fit. We do it to help you not hurt you!

Canon Characters / Magical Characters
**NOTE** For our game ALL Sailor Senshi are biologically Female. Regardless of their personal gender preference (such as Uranus in the series) she's still Biologically female. Likewise, all Guardian Knights are biologically Male. The "Magic" is effected by biogenetics, not gender theory. PLAYERS of either gender can play either gender- that's up to you. However, the MAGIC recognizes a "female" character as a Senshi- Even if she really wants to be a Knight, she's still a "senshi" as far as the magic is concerned. **Thanks**
Are there Sailor Senshi and if so.. where is your canon list?!
Yes! We will have Sailor Senshi. However, to stop a flood of people "claiming" characters and then leaving a week or two into game - and stopping potential people who would stay longer (woo!) we're doing something a little "unique".
Sailor Senshi will be awoken to their magical skills as they bond with a special Sailor Senshi. This senshi will awaken them to their potential and they will become Pretty Guardian Sailor Senshi {Flower}. This is the "level 1" sailor senshi form. Consider this like having the potential to become one of the planetary Senshi. The Staff will have an idea of 'where' your *character* will fit best. (Players can discuss, politely, with the staff if they feel their placement is incorrect or wrong. Ultimately we're here to tell a story, not make people miserable!)
Sailor Senshi of the Flowers will have powers "granted" to them from the staff and their "Basic Stats" when transformed will change to appropriate Magical Girl levels. Players can choose these stats, or let the staff choose for them as they feel comfortable. These "Sailor Senshi" Sheets will be updated on your character sheet that you turned in at the beginning.
Guardian Knights such as Endymion, his Shitennou and the special to our game Outer Knights, are also going to be chosen in such a manner and "awoken" to their "King" forms later.. They will begin with "stones" as opposed to plants. They too will be awoken by a knight that is already awoken and combatting evil.
