• Setting: Fantasy and mixed Eras

    Notes:

    Taoism- Taoism is the ancient study of mana and the world around one, it teaches becoming one with the planet and pulling mana from the living creatures, and objects around the practitioner as well as from with in ones self. In legend there were those known as Taoist, they manipulated mana to do amazing things whether it was for good or evil. Today both Taoist and Taoism are just things of legend, which only children dream of.

    Mana- Mana is he energy of all life comes from. Its also in the moving water, the blue sky and the howling winds. When life is brought into this world, mana is taken from the planet and naturally adsorbed into the new life. And when one dies,what mana is left with in them returns to the planet to help nourish it. Mana is not limitless, it can be abused and over used. Some people believe, if the planet ever gets so weak on mana that it will die, it will take precautions to heal and protcet itself from what ever is harming it.

    Mana orbs- Mana orbs are synthesized gems made of mana. These gems at first were created naturally with in the planet and came in only two colors. Blue (symbolizes: sky and ocean) and green (symbolizes: and land and plants). As people and organizations began harvesting and studying the mana orbs and there many uses, many began to abuse the planet and force synthesize man made mana orbs, creating two new colors Purple (corruption and Red (Powert).

    As time passed mana orbs began to be categorized for of there power by there color. Purple being the weakest and only used for house hold and some business purposes such as cooking, cleaning and communicating. Reds came next, they were far more powerful the purple even though they held only a little bit more mana. What made Red Mana gems special was mana held elemental attributes such as water or fire, and even the rare ability to materialize items or portals. Red orbs could even be put in to weapons and armor for more devastating effects.


    Blue and Green mana orbs were Illegal to have without government permission, because there Mana were vast and enormous. As well as majority of them were very unstable and could level entire regions at best, some were strong enough to even turn continents to dust. These were forbidden to be put in weapons or armor and were only aloud in machina developed and sold by governments. Rumors speak of two legendary Mana orbs, that possessed near infinite power, the White (creation and Black (Destruction) Mana orbs. There are thousands of rumors about these two orbs that to know if they exist is impossible.

    And many have lost there life searching for them.


    The story so far
    (It still a bit Cliche, if anyone as any nice ideas on ways they think the story could go I woul like to know, but please message me a about them. If I just chose that way it would be a bit of a spoiler to everyone interested in the story. Thankz, always found posting my stories here helpful.

    Also the story kinda started in fram naruto but get turned around during the middle to a more first person or ominous first person i think it's called. )


    On the night of the red moon it happen. Not an demon attack, not a bandit attack, but an attack from with in, the Machina. No not just the machina, mana orbs through out the village flourished with power one second, and dead the next. The machina themselves ran wild and attacked and destroyed at random. I hid frozen watching in fear as everything I knew was being ripped away, with no way to stop it and no end in sight.

    My body shivered as I slowly began to wish death would come quickly to me, so I wouldn't have to watch my village be torn apart. Then I saw him standing there like a mountain refusing to bow to the great tempest. He stood in the center of chaos with no emotion on his face, I wanted to yell "run before it was to late," but couldn't speak. This man felt so far away yet stood so close, I watched in amazement as he turned and left the village, then vanish into the horizon. With his disappearance an amazing thing happen, the machina stopped, they either returned to normal or mana orbs were completely drained.

    The only thing running through my mind was, what the hell was going on? Why did this happen, was that man the cause of this? Even though the machina returned to normal, many lie died and my village destroyed. I felt anger and sadness as the only thingi could do was run after that man, I wanted answers, anything! Someone, anyone answer me please make sense of these madness....

    Who am I? How do I know I can trust you, In case of betrayal my name shall remain my own but I have been given many titles throughout my pathetic life. Assassin, seductress, Rogue, and Thief, but you won't know my name until I know I can trust you so for now, lets just find that man.
