The Diclonii ::Literate, Mature, and Lots' of Writing::

::Literate, Mature, and Lots' of Writing::

Based off of the "Elfen Lied" Anime series. Not the manga.

Warning: This is Literate, which mean a lot of writing and reading is to be done. however below I've given a lot of information. But I don't expect you to read all of it! Just scan through it and every time you have a question, go look at it again. Mmkaay? :3

::Plot::
In Kamakura, Japan there have been recent cases of brutal slaughtering of innocent men, women and children. No one, at least not the regular people understand whats going on. With the constant missing children reports of girls who all look the same, and the occasional "drill" of swat teams none of it pieces together. Unless of coarse, your a Diclonius.

::Summary::
The plot of this roleplay comes after the ending of the Anime Series "Elfen Lied". The story is very complex and if you haven't seen it make sure you read most of the fallowing. The series focuses on a Diclonius names Lucy, a cereal killer who can't get her stories straight. However after she disappears Kohta, Yuka, Nana, and Mayu all try to piece together their painful truth. While people around them don't understand much, and the scientists at the facility figuring out how to "end" the Diclonius race. Within the panic a new enemy emerges, someone who knows what they want and will do whatever they have to do to get it. Pick your side, and play.

::Species::
Much of the plot of Elfen Lied revolves around the Diclonii species, and much of this roleplay will too. As explained in the original manga, Diclonius are an evolutionary development from humans. Their bodies are very similar, the only obvious difference being the two horn-like temporal protrusions which are said to relate to their telekinetic powers. Any Diclonius would fall into a coma if it lost one of its horns and could never return from their lethargic state if they lose both horns. However, the main characters in the series, Lucy, manages to recover from this twice. In the anime, Lucy goes into shock from losing one of her horns, and was temporarily rendered catatonic for a very brief period before recovering in time to save another characters named Nana.

Diclonii powers involve the use of invisible arms, known as vectors that can grasp and impact things as if they are solid, but also become insubstantial and pass through objects. They can slice objects as well, which is how Diclonii kill their victims. Vectors usually have a limited range of a few meters, but the length varies among Diclonii; Lucy's vectors are able to extend to two meters; Nana's can reach five meters, and Mariko's (another characters from the series) are the longest, with a range of eleven meters. Diclonii also have the ability to detect the location of others of their kind, such as when a character named Kurama releases Nana from the laboratory to search for and retrieve Lucy. However, when Lucy reverts to her "Nyu" state(complicated.d. O_O), Nana is unable to sense her; in the manga, Nana is also unable to sense Mariko when she is injured and reverts to a personality similar to Nyu.

A key point of debate throughout the series is the Diclonii propensity towards violence. Many have a vendetta against humans, and have ambitions to wipe out the human race and populate the world with their own species. If a Diclonius vector penetrates a human body, the vector virus is transferred to the human, causing their children to be born as Diclonius. An incident involving the escape of a child Diclonius during Kurama's early years where the Diclonius' vectors penetrated him resulted in Mariko being born a Diclonius, and Kurama takes precautions against a recurrence by attempting to sterilize an affected solider named Bando.

It is said by some that the Diclonius were chosen by God as the new humanity, born with the instinct to destroy Humanity and re-populate the world. In the final episode of the anime Lucy tells Kouta that "I was born to destroy humans". Lucy seems at times to have yet another separate personality born entirely of the DNA-driven Diclonius instinct to kill Humans, which may or may not have been responsible for her killing Kouta's family, a thought rejected by Kouta himself. However, Nana's character, as well as the incidents surrounding Lucy’s past and relations with Kouta, suggests that it is possible for Diclonius to have empathy towards humans, and that their sadistic characteristics develop as a result of their interactions with the world. Barbara, a clone of Mariko claimed to have also heard this voice. But her personality was shaped by birth and life in a lab, and seemed to have all of Mariko's sadistic tendencies without any of her tempering characteristics. Nana once seemed to have heard it, but was in shock from leaving Kurama and was taunted by Bando as to her lack of a place in the world. It is entirely possible that the Diclonius race is actually normal and/or peaceful, and that the voice of hatred they have is only caused by the prejudice put against them.

According to the manga, all Diclonius (Silpelits) born from human parents are sterile and female (there were a few in the anime that were male), resulting in a structure resembling a beehive. There is only one Diclonius that is actually capable of reproducing: Lucy, the "queen".
It is disputed and contradicted during the series as to how Diclonius develop their violent behavior, whether it is part of their personality or whether it stems from abuse by human beings, and both conclusions are supported by evidence. Kurama explains to Bando that Diclonius are born with the intention of re-populating the world, and it is implied that Lucy is directed by her Diclonius instincts when she kills human beings as a child. In the anime's final episode Lucy tells Kohta that "I was born to destroy humans." However, it is also shown that the Diclonius have usually been subjected to some type of severe psychological trauma; for example, Lucy was tormented by her human peers and witnessed the killing of her pet as a child, while Mariko was raised in neglect since her birth. They could therefore have developed their homicidal tendencies from abuse. Further supporting this view is the evidence of Nana's character. Unlike other Diclonius, Nana is good-natured and refuses to kill humans in order to please Kurama. Kurama implies Nana's nature is a direct result of his caring for her and treating her as a daughter while she endured horrific experiments at the Diclonius research facility. Their eyes and hair are usually oddly the same color,

Nevertheless, the researchers at the facility believe the Diclonius to be nothing less than an existential threat. The Diclonius there are kept in isolation, where they are heavily restrained to the point of being unable to move and fed through tubes. In this roleplay you will be able to create your character either being a Diclonius or a human. If you choose to create a Diclonius you can choose their vector length and number of vectors they have. The only thing you can't choose is if their in the lab or not. If it's a character thats already form the series then just use that characters information, but if your making you own Diclonius then they have to be in the laboratory. For humans, well I'd say that you can either be a citizen just living their life or a scientist living at the lab. If your human character is a citizen that you have created they do not know about the Diclonii species. But if their a character from the series (look for characters below) then depending on who they are they may or may not know. If your a scientist then you do know, obviously.

::Concepts You’ll Need to Know::
There are a lot of things that can be quite confusing, so this is the stuff you need to know.

Main Characters
Everyone has main characters, you can have as many as you please but I don’t take too many since they’re hard to keep track of. A main characters will be your most important characters, the ones you Roleplay the most and the ones that have a more complicated form. You have to have at least one before making any other characters.
Side Characters
Every once in a while there are some characters that have to be played, i.e. like teachers, special assassins, etc. They can turn into a main characters if you like them a lot though, just ask :3
Minor Characters
For the character that just exists.
No God Modeling
I would rather you not have a invincible Silepelit running around killing people. . I mean if it's necessary but don't think people won't come after you and there won't be complications.

Name : Esmeralda Raezal Grey Redding
Preferred Name : Rae
Gender :Female
Personality : Rae is the classic brazen best friend type, she rarely keeps her mouth shut even more so when she gets upset. Though despite her sometimes rude nature Rae is really sweet and kind, of course only her friends and older brother know her sweet side. Rae also has slight glitch in her stubborn armor. She has this idea that no matter what, if she makes a promise she is bound to it. Childish is what her brother calls her but she says it loyalty, and the one thing that brings her true joy is her violin and her brother playing the piano.
History : Born to Eric and Camilla Reeding Esmeralda was their first daughter and second child after they raise their son Alexander who was 12 at the time. They were a happy upper class family or at least to those on the outside. Inside the home both Eric and Carmella were cold and calculating always pushing Esmeralda to be the best she can be, making her study with top teachers excelling in all her subjects. Esmeralda was smart but she couldn’t handle it by herself. When she turned 15 Alexander had long left for college and was accepted into an odd science program or something like that. Esmeralda fell into a gang as an outlet from her crazed family. She was a brute, from learning how to fight in the streets to lie without batting an eyelash. One night she was out with her gang and they were riding down her neighborhood. Esmeralda caught sight of a bright light up the road and the wails of the fire engine sounded behind her. When the bright red engine drove past her it was headed toward her house corner. She prayed that it didn’t turn but when it did she left her gang, the ones she called her second family and ran. Her lungs burned and her legs throbbed as her breath became ragged. Turning at the corner she saw the raging flames and the smoke thickened as it continued to rise into the sky. The bright red and orange flames consumed her home and as the fire grew the wood cracked and snarled as it was weakened. Esmeralda ran toward the fire but a firefighter held her back all while she screamed and tried to get away from his grip. Minutes passed but as her home crumbled to the ground Esmeralda felt as if though hours had gone by and then she was left alone in the ashes of her home her parents did not come out coughing and wrapped in blanket for warmth searching for their daughter to apologize like the ending of a good movie. They were charred, burned alive by the fire that was still a mystery as to how it started. The only thing that survived were the melted metal door handles and a few glass picture frames. She was frozen by shock but a hand took her shoulder and for once she felt comfort. Looking up she saw her brother Alex with a grim look in his dusty blue eyes. Tears streamed her face and she wrapped her brother into a hug and wrapped herself in his sterile smell. That crisp scent of him masked the warm ocean spray that normally clung to his skin, and just before she was able to smell it Alex pulled her away. “We need to leave. Now.” He ordered and took her hand leading her away from the ashes, and out of the corner of her eye she noticed a figure hidden in the shadows as it ran past a streets lamp the only thing she spotted were horns. Two years have passed since then and she now lives with her elder brother, or at least sort of since he is barely home most of the time, in a remote town finishing up high school and still a bit of a trouble maker but trying at least a little more.
Relationships : After the death of her parents Rae's older brother Alex was the only one who could pull her out of the nightmares she suffered nightly. Without her parents guidance she never really learned growing up felt like or how to pick though a guys lies so her love life is non existing but she is open minded to what may come in the future. As for her view on people she feels that your past does not define who you are. What you do with your future and how you treat people in the present determines how you fit in her life.
Appearance : Esmeralda is a slim figures girl due to the one activity she will force herself to be around, track. Her skin is a warm cream peach color that crinkles at her forehead when she is upset and she also has a habit of grabbing the bangs of her thick odd red hair. With hues of red, orange, magenta and even gold many people think it resembles living flame. Her eyes are mainly the color of the peridot, and blaze it lime green hue in the sun but dim to a dark emerald at night and a small nose to compliment her full pink lips, and lastly an amethyst belly ring that she has yet to tell her older brother about.
Species :Human
Living Situation : She lives with her older brother in a penthouse apartment. The front doors are black ebony wood with chrome detailing. Inside the living room is furnished with glass coffee tables black leather chairs and couches. The windows offer a great view of the town and the woods surrounding it as her caressed by thick black curtains. An arch way of white wood holds as a break in the glass windows and leads to a balcony adorned with flowers with bright colored petals. Just before the balcony doors there is a classic grand piano unmarred by dust from its constant use. The kitchen like the rest of the spacious living room is black chrome and white. Most of Rae’s time is spent in her room were there are other colors. Her room is painted a deep blue with small white stars decorating it. Along the walls are posters of her favorite composers and bands causing some confusion to the few people that are allowed into her room. Mask that are used in masquerades hang on her walls in a variety of styles and color. Her closet is stuffed with different clothes not having a defined style to her personality along with her red cherry wood dresser that is cluttered with small knick knacks and mementos from home. On her closet door and pictures of her friends including her gang members, and her bed is a normal twin size with zebra printed blanket and pillow and purple sheets and a few scattered purple pillows. As a head board she has a book shelf filled with classic stories by Shakespeare and books with withered spines filled with sheet music marked through with pencil. She also has a violin against her closet door that she plays at least once a day. Finally she has a red cherry wood desk that has her brush, laptop, pens and pencils and other personal items. Her sanctum where she thinks, cries, wonders, and dreams.
Occupation : She is a senior in high school and has a part time job at the library.



Name : Alexander Tyler Reeding
Preferred Name : Rae calls me Al, and most of my coworkers call me Alex. I know you’re talking to me so I don’t really care.
Gender : Male
Personality : Alexander is a very laid back type of person. He lets things fall as they may and only interjecting when is proves hi calculations wrong. Alex is a very smart guy but he asks like he is very simple a smile on his lip and a joke every now and again to ease off the tension in a room. Though he doesn’t care much for the company of others unless it is mandatory, and he can be very cold if he doesn’t like you, almost heartless, in fact. The only life he would put over his own is his little sisters and he adores playing the piano.
History : Alexander was always smart. It was in his genetics being born from a scientist and a psychologist college professor. His genius was first known when he was eight and learned how to play and win the complicated game of chess. He only excelled from then on. Getting into the top schools and gather scholarships before even entering high school. As he grew older Alex knew humans were not the only ones living on this planet so he went out looking for them. It became his obsession during college and many of his family members grew concerned. His life as divided between what he wanted and his sister who he cared for deeply. Days turned to weeks witch turned to months and then years and still nothing came from his task. Finally a facility heard of his work and came to him offering him a job with that legendary Diclonius. Since then Alex felt finally his life was how he wanted, of course that came to a standstill when a few Diclonius escaped. Alex felt nothing thinking he was safe but he was wrong. A call telling him that his parents had died in a fire made him worry. Arriving as soon as he could he found his sister has spent the night in the orphanage and the police told him all she say or talked about was the fire and some beast with horns. Relieved that Rae had survived Alexander promised never to let his sister know the world he was involved with. She was his family. The only one he cared about in his life.
Relationships : Being a realist Alexander cannot be in the company of optimistic people. He likes to be around people who can hold of the other end of a educated conversation and he has the deepest respect for people who whole heartedly have faith in their religion no matter what people say. For the fact that Alex is known for a fake smile every now and again girls find is rather hard to approach him. Though he is eye catching he just has an intense aura that girls find a bit dangerous. Though Rae is his number one girl he has had his share of women but as of now he is single.
Appearance : Alex stands at six feet two inches. For one of twenty-nine years he is still fairly young looking with his sun kissed tanned skin stretched across toned muscles. Straight dark red hair that falls slightly getting into his clear dust blue colored eyes that lie behind a pair of thin wire rimmed glasses.
Species :Human
Living Situation : I have a pent house apartment but it was mainly for my sister. I rarely go home because I spend late nights at the facility.
Occupation : Alex performs test on the Diclonius and also does research on the results of the test. On occasions Alex goes after escaped Diclonius and brings them back dead or alive depending on their orders.



Name : Luka Henry Myakka
Preferred Name : Luka
Gender : Male
Personality : Luka is a silent type of person who gets his point across by action rather than words. Taking up the habit of smoking he gives of a dark vibe that had kept his safe. He paid no mind to human life and help the others of his kind escape their fate. A kind heart buried under years of hurt and darkness has left him cold and neglectful of the human race at least at the moment.
History : As a young boy Luka knew he was different, he never understood why but he knew he was. Children would either warm up to him or fear him. As a boy he watched his own family which he later found out were only hired actors sell him to men in white lab coats. Since then he has been fighting and running and sometimes he would when and run another day and others he would lose and be dragged back to his hell. Now as a young man he understands his role in life. To be a killer. Or to be a protector.
Relationships : Chained for what he is Luka is unable to find good in humans. The ones he has met torment him as he remains captured. He has no family to call his own no friends who are living. He is an outcast one who is forced to be alone.
Appearance : Shaggy black hair covering most of his face including his sterling grey eyes that hold the anger he cannot express in words. His skin is pale from the lack of sun but not sickly and scared from beating while he fought in the street and fighting against humans trying to take him back to the place where his hell resided. A tall young man of eighteen with lean muscle just for running and fighting without vectors by his aid.
Species :Diclonius
Location : facility
Number of Vectors : only two
Vector Length : Six meters.
Generation : I am not a silpelit so I am unsure
Where they stand in Man-kind : Luka is undecided when it comes to humans. There are the ones that keep him imprisoned and there are the innocent ones who roam the streets unknown of the reality that will befall on them. He protects the innocent but the humans whose hearts are shrouded in darkness their lives were meant to be ended
When do they use their vectors : Luka is a strong believer of faith and loyalty. Betrayal is the one thing that makes his angry enough for him to lose control of his vectors. He also uses them when he feels trapped.

((waiting is torment))

((so does this mean I have to wait some more?))

((alright. I guess I'll wait but I was really looking forward to this one tooo. :C. Oh well. XD))

((I really wanted to do this one))

Alexander pushed his wire glasses back up the bridge of his nose and sighed as he clicked his pen repeatedly as he stared at the computer screen. A woman about his age maybe even a year younger looked away from the display window and scribbled something down on her clipboard before crossing the room and crouching next to Alexander's desk. "Late night again Alex?" She asked in a sing song voice before pulling the pins from her hair and letting the thick brown locks fall to the base of her neck. Alexander knew what she was doing and it bothered him that she did not even learn from the first time she tried to be "friendly" "It seems that way Angelica. Its Alexander. Like I have been saying for the past two months now." Angelica frowned at his responce clearly upset that Alexander did not respond to her adanvances, but the young genius never took his eyes off the screen of his computer. The formulas and graphs were infinite as they flashed in front of his eyes and the only way one could tell he was reading them was the flicker of his dark blue eyes. A another frown decorated his handsome face as he tapped numerous keys and scribbled notes onto one of the scattered slips of paper that cluttered his desk. "There is something about this one, and the ones that escaped that is more advanced than the others that we found." He paused and removed his glasses to stare at the young man who was strapped behind the display glass. He was well awake now because he would soon have to preform multiple tests and Alexander stared into the cold ice pools of obsedien stone. He reached across his desk and pressed the red button for the intercom. "Get him ready for the stamina research and then send the data to my laptop. I want to get out of here tonight." The other scientest behind the display glass nodded hesitatly as they set up to record the data. The Diclonii was no danger because his body was numbed by kilos of morphine and he was rendered immobile until decided otherwise and he would be injected with adernaline. Alexander leaned back in his chair until his phone buzzed in his jean pocket. Without looking he retreived the cell before Angelica got get it for him with another weak effort to try and woo him. "Whats up Esme?" There was a silence on the other line before his sister's laugh made him smile "How did you know it was me. I used star sixty-seven and every thing." "Well Im the only person who would still be awake at this hour. Speaking of witch. Why are you still up? Dont you have school?" "Well...." "Esmeralda. Not again. You promised me that your senior year was going to be different" while he spoke Alexander waved Angelica away and began reading the data that scrolled down the screen. He began typing but he was still listening closely to his sister. Very closely. "Relax. Geez. Dont bitch out" "Dont use that language young lady." Whatever. Im not expelled or suspended. School is cancelled. Its teachers work day. Want me to make dinner for two?" "I'll cook when I get home. See you when I get there."

Esmeralda sighed and clicked the phone off and tossed it on the white couch. She tossed her backpack on the floor and streached herself out on the couch covering her face with her hands and pushing her bright red hair aside. "So in other words no." Her phone buzzed and she looked at the screen to see the name of one of her classmates. Ignoreing it she sat up and walked to the kitchen and opened the fridge and nibbled on a slice of cold pizza. She reached for the remote on the counter and pressed the power button and soon the loud upbeat tempo of her rock music and she began to dance to it. The glass vibrated like a tuning fork and she smiled as she closed her eyes and continued to dance with a simle swing of her hips and a tossle of her red hair. She twirled and ate her pizza as she tried to drawn out the world. For only when she was bored did she remember the past, and to her, the past was taboo
