Based on a theoretical event revolving around Megidramon managing to Kill Beelzemon and cause a world wide network meltdown, both worlds colliding into chaos and preventing the D-Reapers emergence. HYPNOS has been trying to fight against the rampaging Digimon as best they can, only managing to annoy them further without the aid of Henry, Rika or Takato. Humanity is on the brink of existence, but there is some hope. A few humans have managed to become partners with some of the Digimon that haven't been manipulated by the chaos.
All canon characters will be controlled by me as they will very rarely make an appearance

Ohhh... an AU on the Tamers universe where things got world ending. Nice. I did have a digimon all set to go, and a human partner, but I haven't had a chance to set up their backstories.
-
Any particular digivice that the oc human should have or are different seasons ones allowed? Also does the person have to make up their own digimon or are ones from other seasons, or digimon movies allowed? Or just ones that appeared in season 3?
-
Alright, I think I've got this narrowed down.

All Digimon are allowed including OC ones, and all Digivices are allowed since it's based on a universe where Digimon is a tv show :)
-
Not sure which digimon I may go with. I have some I like, some may need to be altered. As for digivices I like the season 5 Data Squad one. One nice feature of it is it can hold your digimon. No need to hid him, keep him at home, or carry him and tell everyone he's a stuffed animal.
As for digimon I have some ideas. In no particular order, Dorumon (from a japan only digimon movie I saw a fan subtitled version of years back) the season 5 digivoluios of that Agumon, Guilmon (my oc time lord has him as an animal companion in other rp threads (,Mainly Insane Cafe. In the toonworld rp he's a background recurring characer,) Agumon, Veemon I like also. Of the ones I can think right off.
As for human oc I was thinking 8 or 10 maybe. That seems to be the age of most of the digidistined in most of the seasons I've seen.
-
No need to hide them anymore XD
And all of those work fine :)
-
I'm still working on drawing my OC digimon and his partner, but they should be up in a day or two.
-
Not a problem, I look forward to seeing them :)
-
I"ll refrain from drawing mine, since all I could manage is stick figures. :lol
Why no need to no longer hide them? Are digimon a common thing?
-
It's the end of the world, Digimon are EVERYWHERE XD
-
This is good...I like!
-
Interested in joining perhaps? :3
-
Oh, you know it! Just so long as nobody goes all psycho-fascist on me!
-
ha ha, no problem
-
Wicked! I'll get ta work on an OC and Digimon team, then~!
-
*thumbs up* Oh yeah, I posted on your world of furry discussion thread
-
I'm thinking maybe between the season 5 Agumon, though with a different personality, the season 1, or maybe Dorumon.
If I did go with Dorumon I wonder. Dorumon's final stage has 2 choices, Alphamon or a dragon looking one. I guess depending on the circumstances.
I wonder also, based on how he digivolves in the movie if a beam would come from the sky, from the digivice to the thing on his head, or like other digimon digivolve who have human partners.
I may go with Dorumon since he's less well known and others may not be thinking of using him.

? Dorumon / Male / none / 13
-
Sounds good Kor :)
-
REDACTED
-
A few partners? Try to pick just one *thumbs up*
-
Oh, trust me. His main Partner is Kotemon, while the others just sorta started following him in the wake of the chaos that surrounds them. They're more or less a travelling party.
Oh, I also have an idea for an organization!
-
Still try to choose only 1 Digimon, it's only been a few days after Takato, Henry and Rika + side characters went missing
And explain your idea, i'll try and fit it in if I can
-
But there are so many awesome digimon, I can't choose just one~!
Also, the organization would be akin to a police force for digimon, opting for capture and containment, rather than outright deletion.
-
An organization like that would form if they were in danger and the human race wasn't on the verge of extinction, and an organization is already present 'HYPNOS'
And indeed there are, but to create fairness- only 1 Digimon per person
-
Alright, alright. Just the Kotemon for now.
And this group exists as a sort of... anti-HYPNOS. Where HYPNOS wants to destroy Digimon, this group would simply contain and relocate/resocialize them. Essentially, humanitarian Digimon containment.
-
Question- Did you watch season 3?
-
Yep. Though the timing of this is before HYPNOS really is back to full strength, and they're still not quite seen as good just yet, if I'm reading this right.
-
In the english dub, they seem like good guys, Yamaki even admits what he did was wrong before they go to the Digital World and helps them, so HYPNOS isn't evil
I also posted on your rp, waiting for a response
-
True, but still. This group is now acting as an interim partner, and previous competitor. They could have been in the same position, but HYPNOS got the government check. They're more freelance.
And I was waiting on the others, so we don't get too far ahead.
-
One organization is all we need, when a few weeks ingame progress i'll think about another organization rising. And okay
-
Right. Then I'll sit this out until then.
-
You only wanted to join for an organization? ...lolwut?
-
More that my character doesn't make sense without the organization. So I'll pass.
-
How so? You could easily just be like everyone else and managed to find your partner and gain a digivice?
-
Nah. But thanks. Hope this one actually works out.
-
Okay then *shrugs*
-
Is this set during a certain point in season 3? Just curious.
I guess the characters start with their digimon and digivice, unlike in the first 3 seasons and season 5's markus? Or is it like early season 2 where some have digimon and some don't when the rp starts?
-
About a day or two after Guilmon dark Digivolves to MegiDramon
And kind of like 02
-
Ok. I've not seen season 3 that far, but I have seen a clip where he does dark digivolve, and around 5 or so minutes before and after that. I think I've seen the first 12 or so episodes of the first 3 seasons. Not sure how much I've seen of season 5. & a fansubtitled version of the movie, or ova, whichever it is, where Dorumon appears.
-
That movie is X-Evolution and that actually takes place before Adventure believe it or not
-
I thought so, since humans don't appear in it at all. As I recall.
-
Yeah, and the X-Antibody is actually ancient code :3
-
I don't know much about the x-antibody. Mainly what I read and I think it was in the game.
I don't remember if Dorumon already has the x-antibody or he is given it by the digimon who dies in the early in the movie. I guess given the interface thing on Dorumon and the way he digivolves he must be some ancient type of digimon maybe. Or something else maybe.
-
Dorumon has the X-Antibody- he was one of the first few to have it actually
Also, when I get the okay from all players i'll make the rp thread :)
-
I'm not entirely sure if I believe the X-Antibody is that ancient of a code. From what I read about it, it altered the appearances of some digimon, such as Agumon, Gabumon, Greymon, and Garurumon. Since Adventure has the original forms of these digimon, I feel it's unlikely that the X-Antibody had been introduced yet.
I have also found nothing on Digimon X-Evolution taking place before Digimon Adventure. And it wouldn't make much sense for it to take place before Adventure for the very reason I highlighted.
Yggrasil (sp?) wanted to create a new digital world. He destroyed the old one and made a new world for digimon to live on. Most of the digimon were wiped out (because Yggrasil wanted them gone) and the ones that did survive were being hunted down by the X Program. Those with the X Antibody survived, but it also changed their appearances.
For instance, here's the X forms for Agumon, Gabumon, and Gomamon:
(https://lh3.ggpht.com/_ImbbpRpSPMc/TSvJstvS37I/AAAAAAAAACQ/Tdyb2EGwsn4/s1600/Agumon+X.jpg)
(http://dma.wtw-x.net/DMA/DigimonStands/Bandai/Shadowman/GabumonX.jpg)
(http://dma.wtw-x.net/DMA/DigimonStands/Bandai/W/GomamonX.jpg)
These digimon do not appear in Adventure looking like this. So the conclusion I can come up with is that the events of X-Evolution had not happened yet, or took place in its own timeline. It's very possible that X-Evolution takesp lace in its own universe. Look at the seasons of digimon. Except for the first two, the rest are standalone universes. Oh and to point out, the whole "Digimon Adventure is a TV show in Digimon Tamers" is actually a dub change. In the original, there is absolutely no talk of a TV show at all. No talk of Tai or the other DigiDestined.
Is there any data that confirms X-Evolution taking place before Adventure? Any official japanese sources that, in translation, confirm this? I have yet to find any such sources.
-
Thanks for the info DarkHououmon
-
Will most pc's already have a digivice & digimon or will they acquire them during the rp?
Also if they don't start with one I wonder how they'll get a digivice, similar to season 1 or 2 where the device comes to them, or will they be given it like in season 5, where some guy who talked to Markus earlier tossed him one, who he doesn't know who the guy is yet.
-
I'll do a list of what's happened
-MegiDramon causes massive problems
-Takato and Co are missing
-Digimon escape into the real world much faster
-Chaos
-People with Digivices and Digimon appear to lend a hand (our characters)
-
Sounds like everyone starts with a digivice then.
-
Yep
-
Hello:
I am wondering if it is not too late for me to join? I am thinking about characters (human and Digimon) since I saw all of Digimon up to season3 (and only bits of later seasons).
-
Yep, it's always open :D
-
Hello:
That's cool, I do have an idea for the Digimon partner, he will be of the Seadramon family; but now I need to think on the human character now :blink: .
-
No problem, take your time- i'll only start when all players give the okay :)
-
Hello:
That's awesome, thanks, I'll try to post character bios tomorrow with luck :DD .
P.S.: Wow I did forget (until now) you are a fan of BlackWargreymon, just like me :smile .
-
*gives you an epic high five* BlackWarGreymon ftw :3
And sounds good :) I shall patiently wait :)
-
When players are ready, comment yes in this thread
-
Yes, I'm ready.
-
Hello:
I guess I almost don't make it in time, hehehe, I am posting here a quick info based on Metadude's sheet.
Name: Jeremy Hunter.
Age: 10.
Height: 4'1 (1.25 meters tall... USA should really switch to the International System, hehehe).
Gender: Male.
Description: He is a bit short for his age and a bit underweight but still average for his age, he has brown messy hair and even though he likes to play a lot and do all kid stuff, he is very good at computer programming. He has reasons to believe his parents might divorce and the coming of Seadramon is helping him to see things with renewed hope for the best.
Partner Species: Betamon (Bukamon->Betamon->Seadramon->Megaseadramon->MetalSeadramon).
Gender: Male.
Nickname: ---
Age: equivalent to 12 years old.
-
Good bio :3 but a seadramon would be 18+ XD
It's adult/champion level
-
I think it's sometimes easy to forget this, since I don't think the dub addresses it that much (not sure about the original japanese version though), but each stage of digivolution represents an age. The further a digimon digivolves, the older it actually becomes.
Fresh: Baby
In-Training: Toddler
Rookie: Child
Champion: Adult
Ultimate: Middle Age
Mega: Elderly
So whenever a digimon digivolves or dedigivolves, they are basically changing their age each and every time.
-
The age could be used to describe how old they are mentally. Like the Tamer's universe Guilmon would be described as about 12-14. While Terriermon would be considerably older.
-
I've not seen all the dubbed episodes but it seems some digimon seem about the same through all their digivolutions, some seem to mature through the stages. & there may be some like Dorumon who is the same all through his, except for if crises is bad enough for him to digivolve to Alphamon instead of the alternate then his personality is very mature, otherwise it seems he's the same as Dorumon's personality. Though with his movie I've only seen a fan subtiled and some of a fan dubbed.
Anyway it should be up to the Gm of this thread, and maybe each of the individual players, depending on what the Gm says how things work for this thread.
-
Hello:
Well, I changed the Digimon to Betamon because Seadramon is also bigger in size and Betamon would have less problems to be inside a house and would fit the bios better, hehehe. My mistake as I was thinking in Seadramon when I was writting the bios :smile .
All of you have good points about Digimons' behavior depending on the stage, but I don't see it as a rule written on stone as it might still allow for some freedom for Digimon personalities.
Latin spanish dubbing was based directly on the japanese version so I saw the series with the original soundtrack and dialogues. So Darkhououmon is more correct if we figure that Wormmon had a normal child-like voice in japanese and spanish instead of the elderly voice he had in the english dubbing. But I never saw Mega-level Digimons as elderly, but as still young adults with more power granted to fight for whatever cause that Digimon defends.
-
REDACTED
-
Good bio, glad to see you rejoined :)
I take it everyone's ready? I'll post the thread up sometime today
-
Sounds good!
-
Thread up
-
Just realized you had two Digimon Starfall
Pick one, not two
-
The other one isn't introduced yet, but she will be. She's not actually a partner Digimon, either. She travels with them, but she can't get card boosts, nor digivolve. She's going to be mostly a support character/generally the "people digimon" of the three.
Oh, and also, Yosuke is pretty much always going to be in his Champion form unless he runs dry on power. So he'll be the group equivalent to Gatomon from Adventure.
-
I... suppose that's acceptable?
-
She'll fill the role of Neemon/Bokomon or something like that. She can fight, but she's mostly a good social companion for the time being. Given that Yosuke's a cynical kind of jerk, and Makoto doesn't really like interacting with others... yeah, she's kind of their bridge with the other tamers.
-
Alright then :)
-
I was going to explain the whole detail of the swords, but since it would just be ignored, then whatever. I'll have something kill off my characters.
-
You can still keep the swords, since the last page is being revised you can just say they're from the Digital World from a fallen enemy
-
Yeah, but that makes less sense than what I had in mind, so whatever.
-
Explain your idea here then
-
The general idea is that Makoto has been misinformed.
The "Old Man" is actually a member of the same group as Genna, that some how ended up on Earth. That would be why he knows so much about swords, etc. Also, yes, Makoto's swords are both made of Chrome Digizoid, and there will be a third on that'll be important later.
Also, I had the idea that the whole of the Digital world has been around as long as, if not longer, than the human world. However, until the Monster Makers, nobody thought to look for it or even that such a thing existed. However, there have always been "tears" that happen throughout time, explaining things like mirages, hallucinations, and why things in ancient history have occasionally come up as anachronistic. Ancient UFO's, ideas that were far ahead of their times, even things like the basics of myths.
-
I'm working off S3, not a recreation/improvised version
Gennai is non existent in S3 unless he somehow manages to pull a Ryo which I doubt he would go out of his way to do when he already has a world to watch over
-
The general theory would be that there is always some order that watches over the Digital World. It isn't Gennai, but another member of a similar group. If I recall, there's some implication that there are other creatures in the Digital World.
-
I don't mind when people take the story in a different direction, but a whole other faction is too much of a change as it will destroy a few things I have in mind
-
The faction doesn't exist anymore, just the old man. he's all that's left, and doesn't much care for the fight anymore.
-
*Sighs* The man simply existing creates problems
-
Either way, the swords make much more sense and require FAR LESS explaining if it's from a defeated Digimon
-
How so? He's at this point an eccentric sword teacher who just so happens to know about Digimon, and can occasionally offer insights about things pertaining to them. Things like noting corrupt digivolutions if one happens, or observing things that happen during the story. Biomerging or things.
-
You have some good ideas Starfall, but they simply aren't going to work with what i'm doing for this rp
-
Right. Hope the RP goes well for you, then. I'll bow out.
-
You seriously only wanted in for the organization? no offense but that's kind of shitty...
-
That's not it, it just invalidates my whole character as an entity. I'd have to rework everything, and that's just hard.
-
From what I can see, the swords are the only things that need fixing, which can be fixed with 'from a digimon my partner defeated'
-
Yeah, except that the two have only been partners for a very short time, which is why they have a rather distant partnership. Also, how would swords continue to exist after an opponent being deleted?
-
Remember Beelzebumon? he could use the attacks from Digimon he defeated, your Digimon can simply call the swords forth
-
Yeah, but Beelzemon was a corrupted Ultimate. Buraimon is a plain Champion level. The other thing is that in Xros Wars, there is a Digimon that took on a Human form in the Real World. (Bagramon -> Old Clock Shop Man) Would that work better?
-
*shakes head* The only thing that's changed in S3 for this rp is MegiDramon killed Beelzebumon and there's more Tamers, the closest thing to what you're suggesting is what Shibumi did when he used a Digimon to look like him in the real world to hand out blue cards
-
True, however that could be a similar case. Also, remember what the Monkey Deva did, disguising himself as a human kid? Think along those lines.
-
Monkey deva worked because it's already human in shape XD
But the problem remains of the extra faction you're trying to add, even if it's just one member- other Digimon, especially the sovereigns would be aware of it
-
A Jijimon, perhaps, then. Looks like a shriveled old guy, can easily play itself off as one, and has perhaps been around since before the Sovereigns were aware of it. At least until recent events. Once he reveals himself, he'll have to either travel with the group or go underground to stay safe.
-
Listen, I still don't see why you want to go to all this trouble for a pair of swords... they're swords after all...
As for the Jijimon, yes- it could pass as a human. But why would a Jijimon know how to create swords?
Seriously, this discussion is going absolutely nowhere- I stand by my choice to not include anything outside of the parameters i've set using S3 as a strong base
-
Who says that he actually created them? He may have just brought them from the Digital world. He just claimed he made them because he's a Jijimon. Not exactly the most sane of Digimon. He just taught Makoto swordsmanship and things of that sort.
-
Now.. how would a jijimon know how to use a sword to teach him? :\
And it also brings another question that you yourself brought up- why didn't the swords disintegrate?
-
Generally, Jijimon is stated to be ancient, so it would know how to fight. It uses a stick mostly, but the technique carried over from using a stick to using a sword, based on how I saw it fight in Tamers.
Also, there is some proof that Digital weapons don't bind to a Digimon until they get them, so if these were taken after being forged, then they could be unbound to any Digimon, thus usable by a human.
-
Digimon evolve to get their weapons, there is no reference to creating weapons in any of the seasons except Xros Wars for Tactimon's sword
-
Which one could assume is the case with all Digital weapons, just isn't something that anyone ever mentioned before. It's an assumed thing that they all come from somewhere, so these were made in that somewhere.
-
Digimon are a game in S3, they have their weapons because they were designed to battle.
I'm not mixing seasons because you don't want to use a simple method, i'm sorry if it sounds harsh but my point doesn't seem to be getting across. This is based on S3, digimon are a game and evolve to get their weapons, just watch the evolutions to see proof of that, I don't see anyone building armor or weapons during the evo sequences. The only difference in this rp is MegiDramon is on the loose, and there are more tamers.
-
Right. Then I'll just bow out. Clearly my character has no place in this RP.
-
Very well
