The time was the Dark Age. A time when humans were met with a major obstical that thretened to destroy every human on the planet. The Vandels. A spawn of darkness itself, these demons were born onto this world with one goal: Destroy every human. No one knows what created the vandels or why, but they wanted us dead all the same.
In this age, a new profession was established, the Vandel Busters. These men and women all stood for humanity and justice and sought to wipe out the Vandels and their evil legions of monsters. They mastered an energy all their own, the Divine Power, and fought back against the evil spawns. Among this group of people were the Zenon Warrios. A Buster group so powerful and dangorous, that a large bounty was put on their head, and soon, they became the number one target for all Vandels in the world. A powerful vandel named Beltorze then challenged these warriors and defeated them. At this point, it seemed like Humanity's only hope had been wiped out.
But before the Zenon Warrior's disappeared, they passed their soul weapons, their saiga, down to a boy named Beet. This boy grew and established the Beet Warriors, and soon took up the torch dropped by the legendary group that fell before them. Led by this new hope, the Beet Warriors soon destroyed the Vandels one by one, and soon, destroyed the evil force, and ended the terrible dark age.
Or, so that was what was supposed to happen.
During the Zenon Warrior's fated battle with Beltorze, something went wrong. The one thing, a shot from the groups sharpshooter, that allowed Beet to stay alive was disrupted somehow. Once that had happened, the Zenon Warriors were killed, and so was young Beet. The savior of the world had died.
20 years have passed since the greatest hope for humanity died, and humanity is being pushed to the edge. A Vandel king rose from the masses, and under his command, the Vandels were eliminating humanity. As humanity draws ever nearer to extinction, one final hope remains. One final chance for humanity to live and destroy the Dark Age once and for all. This is the Last Stand.
(Right then, apart form the very long intro, this RP is going to be a bit different for me, in the sense that it'll be a bit more complex. First, let me explain just a few things.
Level:
Each buster will have a level. This level is increased by slaying monsters and Vandels. Here's a rough estimate on how the levels work:
1-10: 'Newbie' Buster. The Buster Jacket, the Buster's official uniform, is gotten at level 10.
11-20: Novice Buster. Generally where fighting styles and divine attack styles develop.
21-30: Average Buster. Generally goes after lower level vandels and medium level monsters. This is also the level area where Busters are most likely to lose their lives.
31-40: Advance Buster. This is where Busters begin to devlop Saiga, and possibly first class divine attacks. Level 40 is the minimum requirement to join the "Broad Busters", the Buster Police force.
41-50: Veteran Busters. These busters team up and go against high level monsters and Vandels.
50+: Never seen in the story, but assumed to be Buster Legends. I believe some of the Zenon Warriors may have been in the 50's.
Generally, I'll want you guys to stay within 5 levels of my character to start, unless you need to be higher or lower for your background, such as if your character is a Broad Buster or a new buster.
Divine Attack:
Keeping this brief, this is a Buster's magic. It allows them to launch magic attacks with one of five elements: Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning, and Light (Note: Please stay away from Light, as it's generally considered to be the hardest element to master). You may pick one element for your character to specialize in, unless your character specializes in the divine attack, in which case you may use all five, but no normal weapon specialization. There are also First Class Divine Attacks, which can be done when you've learned an element fairly well. They use a lot of divine energy, and are generally a finishing blow. A specialized First Class attack can take on a unique shape.
Saiga:
Useable when you've mastered an element. These are phsical weapons that busters keep within their bodies. They're based on one single element (IE, Burning Lance is a fire saiga). They use MASSIVE amounts of divine power over time, and are generally just used as a finishing blow. You may start with one if you wish, or you may learn to make one as you go along, or you can simply not use one. I don't really care either way.

Name: Roy Stevens
Age: 24
Height: 5'10
Weight: 120 lbs
Gender: Male
Level: 29
Skills: Roy specializes with Shields. He's very strong despite not being very muscular, and he's always had a knack for guessing what divine attack or dark attack huamans and vandels use. He's also quite good at hand-to-hand combat.
Weapons: Roy uses a large circular shield. Despite many people believing shields can only be used for defense, Roy uses his for offense mostly. He uses it like a club, and with many different grips on the inside of it to allow him to swing it many different ways. He also can charge lightning through it to make anyone who touches it get a devestating shock. Roy also wears steel gauntlets, increasing the power of his punches even further.
Divine Attack: Lightning. His first class Divine Attack is Bolt End, a varient on the Burst End, Frost End, and Tornado End attacks, Roy compressed an immense amount of lightning energy into a small ball, and can release it at point blank range, allowing to transfer 100 million volts to a single target, and a strong jolt to any within five yards of the target. If mishandeled or used when he is injured, it could potentially kill him.
Saiga: Tower of Thunder. A lightning based saiga that takes the form of a tower shield, this shield will prduce a devestating shock to whoever touches it other than Roy, and can focus Roy's Divine Energy into a cannon-like blase, annihilating anything in front of it. It has a massive kick, and the shield has spikes in the bottom of it to counter this. Also, it can fold out into a very long spear which fits to Roy's forarm. Roy calls this 'Lightning Rod Form' and if the tip pierces an enemy, it will allow Roy to deliver a finishing blow by shocking the target with 250 million volts of electricity.
Personality: Roy has always been energetic and friendly, but there's always been something empty inside of him that's made him somewhat depressed at times.
Appearance: Roy wears a red buster jacket and leaves it open. Underneath is a strong, leather undershirt colored black. He wears greay trousers and a pair of brown boots. His gauntlets are a silver color, and his shield is colored black and gold and carried on his back. Roy has a long scar across one of his eyes, and that eye has a white pupil. The other eye is hazel. His hair is left spike and brown.
History: Roy has been a wanderer ever since he joined the busters at age 20. When he was only level 14, he picked a fight with a five star vandel, and it left him with the scar on his face. He was saved by a group called the Arc warriors, and was an apprentice in the group until most of its members were slaughtered by a powerful seven star vandel. After that, Roy decided to go after smaller targets, determined to avenge his fallen comrads and end the dark age, leading him to Trowana, and Grineed's Black Horizon.
Name: Sky
Age: 22
Height: 5'8
Weight: 113 lbs
Gender: Female
Level: 42
Skills: Sky is known for her incredible speed. She's outrun many of the quicker monsters, and has escaped with her live intact many times in otherwise unsurvivable situations. She specializes in the Divine Attack, but can also use a pistol well enough to use it for a support weapon.
Weapons: Sky uses a specialized revolver. She can load rounds made of her divine power and fire them very well. She has quite a memory, so she can spin the barrel to fire whichever round she wants first, or last. She also carries around a dagger just in case. Lastly, she has a bag of small bombs that can be charged with Divine Attack powers and set on a delay.
Divine Attack: Sky can use every single element of the Divine Attack, even light. She primarily uses two different first class attacks. One is a dummy attack, used to defeat lesser vandels or to buy time to compress her divine energy for her true finish. Her dummy attack is called Ice Shell and is a Water type Divine Attack. This freezes the water in the air around a vandel in a fraction of a second. Lower level vandels may not even be able to break out of the shell created, depending on how humid the air is. If it's too dry, however, Sky cannot use this attack. Her true First Class Attack is called Tempest Fury. It's a wind based Divine Attack and compresses the wind into five or six powerful spears made of compressed tornadoes to skewr the enemy to death. She has also been working on a Light Based First Class Divine Attack, but has yet to master it.
Saiga: None as of yet.
Personality: Sky is cheerful and upbeat. She's always happy to make a friend, but will fight relentlessly. She's very defensive of her friends and team and is generally the first to take a risk when fighting a vandel.
Appearance: Sky has bright red hair pulled back into a pony tail with a few strands hanging in front of her face. She wears a mostly white buster jacket over a long sleeve sky blue undershirt. She wears dark green trousers and brown boots. She has her BB Badge, but doesn't tend to wear it on her outfit, as she's more of an undercover BB. Her Revolver is kept in a holster on her right hip, and her dagger on her left thigh. Her pack of bombs is kept attached to the back of her trousers on a belt.
History: Sky has been a Vandel Buster since she was 15. She left the house as soon as possible to go end the Dark Age as she told her parents. They didn't approve, but that didn't stop her from leaving anyways. She was in several Buster Groups for quite some time, but never found a place to settle down. Currently, she's a BB, or a Broad Buster. This is the Buster Police force who make sure that Buster's don't abuse their powers. Normally BB's need a saiga, but due to her skill with the divine attack, she was an exception. Recently, she was pinned down in Trowana due to the massive amounts of monster attacks that's kept many people trapped in the Black Horizon. Sky is currently searching for a Buster Group to travel out of the city with to finally clear out this dark age.
