Game 2
Final Fantasy – Legacies
NOTE - This is like the last FF game, except it takes place in the future, not the past. 
To those chosen by fate,
By the time you read this letter, I shall be no more. I have attained a great age, and I fear I have very little time left in this world. I leave behind this last word, so that you, who have felt destiny’s embrace, may be enlightened.
There is more to this world than meet the eye. On the surface, all appears calm and rational, but look beneath the veil, and you will see war. War that has been going for longer than mankind can remember. Every day, supernatural forces from the skies above and the pits below battle in secret for the dominion of this world. Using the bodies of mortals, they spread discord throughout the kingdoms, weakening alliances and awaking old feuds. The world remains ignorant, which only ensures the continuing madness.
Only the great crystal, whose brilliant light has protected our world for thousands of years, keeps the otherworldly forces at bay. Many have tried to destroy the crystal, or else attempted to harness its power, but all have failed. The crystal is too well protected, for it has the power to call forth its champions, the Crystal Guard – Heroes chosen by fate to defend the world from evil. Whenever the crystal senses danger, it cries out, summoning the guard to its chamber deep beneath the earth. The warriors, informed of their mission, set out to do the crystal’s will, unaware that destiny is pulling their strings.
As the new Crystal Guard, it is your duty to stop this otherworldly threat and bring peace to the world.
I leave this wisdom to you, knowing that my soul will now rest easy in the afterlife.
The Sage, Ashara.
It’s not much, but that’s the story.
You are the Crystal Guard, reincarnations of great warriors who have been called many times before by the great crystal to protect the world, and are called now to do so again.
You fight against the otherworldly races – Both the angel-like forces from Zion, and the demonic minions of hell. They inhabit the bodies of humans and monsters alike, and are very hard to kill.
You can be any FF class (black mage, white mage, dark knight, paladin, warrior, summoner, dragoon, mime, etc.) Keep in mind that by choosing a class, you inherit their weaknesses, as well as their strengths. You are also limited by equipment - For example, a black mage cannot wear heavy armor.
Rules
1. No godmodding. You cannot have an overly powerful character, and you cannot kill or control other people’s characters without their permission.
2. No metagaming. Your character cannot have knowledge that is not available to them in-game, even if you as a player have that knowledge.
3. Only 2 character per player MAX
4. Do not discuss characters and stuff in this thread. Wait until the game has been approved.
5. Make your posts nice and easy to read. It doesn’t matter how long your posts are, as long as the message gets across clearly. Minor spelling and grammar mistakes are allowed, but only if they are mistakes.
REGARDING ARMOR
Since this a futuristic FF game, equipment is a bit different from say, medieval. 
Character's can have whatever appearance you wish. For equipment, Guardians simply inherit the spirit of their ancient self, who did wear armor. The spirit will act as the armor. In other words, characters are still limited by 'equipment', but not by appearance. Make sense?
And if this game gets chosen I call dibs on a dragoon.

Game 3
Not-so-Generic High School RP (with ABSOLUTELY NO ZOMBIES! *wink**nudge*)
It is halfway through the 2nd semester of the school year. The day to day activity of the students is as normal and boring as always. The jocks play football, the nerds play WOW on their laptops, the teachers take a smoke during the lunch break, and all other stereotypes do their stereotypical things. The mundane peaceful life of the large town of Generica remains undisturbed.
One morning, the news reports of a mysterious flash of light that appeared in some laboratory on the other side of the world. Of course, the kids have no idea about this, because, hell, only old people watch the news, right? Besides, there’s no way that these lights and laboratories have anything to do with them…
You are a student of Generica High School. You wake up one morning, thinking that today is going to be like every other day. But it is not. You hear whispers among the teachers and staff, and some of the more knowledgeable students - Some nonsense about ‘chemical weapons’, ‘government conspiracies’, and ‘military convoys’. Do you ignore this rubbish, or listen intently to it? It’s up to you.
Just know this – It is not what you expect… OR IS IT!?!?
That’s all – Can’t be bothered to write a serious story. I’ll do that later.
Basically…
Student. High School. Stereotype. Normal day. No zombies (or are there!?)
That’s all.

Game 4
Psyches - Reboot
Psyches are genetically enhanced human gifted with psychokinesis (telekinesis). In 1996, a mad scientist had created a 'psyche' gene, which he used on 35 test subjects, all of whom had been kidnapped and used as guinea pigs. The tests were mostly successful. The psyches received great powers of the mind, being able to manipulate the world around them with but a stray thought. This 'gift' also operated on a subconscious level, using psychokinesis to increase their own strength, speed and other physical attributes, and also giving them the power of flight.
These psychics could pick up a car with their bare hands with no physical exertion, dodge gun fire with ease, fly at near the speed of sound and can rip up a forest of trees with the power of their minds alone. They are also immune to most conventional firearms.
the psyches, enraged with what had been done to them, launched a mass breakout of the testing facility, killing the scientist in the process. Once, free, they returned to civilization and tried to start a new life. The scientists partner however, a man called John Raves (who calls himself 'The Raven') survived. During the creation of the psyche gene, Raves has deliberately tampered with the solution, out of a misguided fear that psyches would become abominations that only destroyed. This fear turned to intense 'racism', and he conspired to kill all of the psyches. His attempt however, was mostly unsuccessful. No psyches died. After 2 years however, 3 of the 35 went insane and went on a rampage. Raves recovered from his disappointment and went to the government for help, exaggerating the situation, convincing the united nations that all 35 subject had gone insane and should be destroyed. He was granted the funding to begin project raven, a project that would being to find way to capture and ultimately kill all psyches.
Years later, and Raves appears to have won his war on the psyche race. He had successfully recreated a working serum that would administer the psyche gene to subject. Using willing volunteers, project raven had assembled its own squadron of psyche hunting psyches. These psyches, called 'Phoenix', were as powerful as regular psyches, save for two exceptions, which were named 'Phoenix Elites' and were made leaders of Phoenix, and were considerably more powerful.
Enter Jason, the biological son of Robert, the first of the 35 original psyches. Jason is the first naturally born psyche, and as a side effect, was just as powerful as an elite, despite being only 18 years old. seeing Jason as a true threat, raves decided to recruit more Phoenixes, resorting to kidnapping like his former partner. One of the kidnapped subjects was Jason closest friend, who became an elite. Realizing they was going to hunt and kill Jason, the friend escaped and joined forces with Jason, and the two of them work together to destroy project raven. At one point the pair of them successfully killed 'EL', one of the original Phoenix Elites. Because of this, some of the original psyches have been inspired to fight alongside them, and they are happy to accept help when they can get it. Furthermore, the serum used to create the Phoenixes is starting to deteriorate, forcing project raven to find another way to hunt and kill psyches. They are currently considering robotics, and have created a few bipedal prototypes.
That's the story so far...
Rules
1. No godmodding. You cannot have an overly powerful character, and you cannot kill or control other people’s characters without their permission.
2. No metagaming. Your character cannot have knowledge that is not available to them in-game, even if you as a player have that knowledge.
3. Only 2 character per player MAX
4. Do not discuss characters and stuff in this thread. Wait until the game has been approved.
5. Make your posts nice and easy to read. It doesn’t matter how long your posts are, as long as the message gets across clearly. Minor spelling and grammar mistakes are allowed, but only if they are mistakes.
6. TELEKINESIS IS THE ONLY POWER - This is why the other psyches game messed up. Nobody followed this rule.
- Psyches cannot read minds, astral project, create illusions, etc.
- A full list of powers/subpowers will be made available if the game is made. (For example, being able to create fire/ice by manipulating molecules)
- Although all powers are the same, each character can specialize in a unique ability, as long as it can be linked to telekinesis. (such as teleportation over short distances)

This next game is almost a direct rip-off of Magicka - A videogame I happen to be a massive fan of. If you know about it, awesome. If not, no matter, we can still try this.
Game 5
Elementalists – The order of magick.
Once upon a time, in an ancient land, there was a great castle, where the order of magick dwelled. The order of magick was a society of wizards, and all wizards would study, practice and relax within the castle walls. The kingdom of Algara would often call upon the order of magick for aid, for it was widely known that wizards, aside from being scholars, were also great fighters, using their arts to face enemies that mere mortals would flee from. Despite their legendary skills, wizards were still human, and were normally physically weak compared to a common soldier. If not for their talents, they would perish at the hands of even the weakest of goblins. The death toll for wizards on the battlefield was sometimes more than the order of magick could bear. One great wizard, whose name is long forgotten, sought to fix this death toll by searching for the elixir of life. The order of magick was against this, as such an item was forbidden. Arguments began, and then fights. Eventually, a young pupil was killed in the struggle, and the wizard was banished from the order of magick for all eternity. His staff was snapped in half, so he could perform no more magick. That was hundreds of years ago.
In the present, life in the order of magick continues as normal. There have been rumors of increased monster sighting throughout the kingdom of Algara. In response, the order has sent of group of distinguished graduates to investigate…
You are one of the wizards sent out to investigate the increased monster sightings. Although skilled, you are inexperienced in real life situations, such as combat, and dealing with superstitious commoners. It will take more than your magick to survive in the kingdom of Algara.
How magick works
Basic magick is divided up into the main 8 elements – water, life, shield, cold, lightning, arcane, earth and fire. The secret of magick is to combine these elements together, with different results. There is a 9th element – wind, but unlike the first 8, it cannot mix and match with any of the others. Elements will not always mix with their opposites (life and arcane, earth and lightning, cold and fire), while some do (fire and water mixed create a tertiary element called steam, water and cold create a tertiary element called ice)
Also, some elements cannot be used in certain circumstances (such as trying to using lightning when WET - Bad idea)
In order to perform magick, a wizard needs a conduit with which to cast. This can be a staff, a wand, special gauntlets, etc. Wizards will sometimes carry a melee weapon, like a sword, for close quarters combat. This weapon is purely secondary, as no sword is a match for a decent magick spell. However, the weapons can be temporarily enchanted with one of the 8 main elements. This enchantment only lasts for a few seconds, however.
Rules – Same as always
1. No godmodding. You cannot have an overly powerful character, and you cannot kill or control other people’s characters without their permission.
2. No metagaming. Your character cannot have knowledge that is not available to them in-game, even if you as a player have that knowledge.
3. Only 1 character per player MAX.
4. magick is spelled with a k. "magic" is something else entirely. 
5. Make your posts nice and easy to read. It doesn’t matter how long your posts are, as long as the message gets across clearly. Minor spelling and grammar mistakes are allowed, but only if they are mistakes.

Game 6
Planet Anthromorph
The simple town of Bear Rock has had its fair share of hard times, but nothing like the Blood-moon gang, led by the wolf-kin Grath the Vicious. Grath was a greedy bastard who would stop at nothing to gain more wealth and power. He and his gang have plundered many towns, and Bear Rock was the most recent. Stripped down to nothing, the town despaired, for hey were no match for the Blood-moon gang’s superior laser weaponry. Then one day, another wolf-kin appears, claiming his home had also been destroyed by Grath’s greed. With a laser crossbow in hand he speaks to the people of Bear Rock, seeking allies, for he plans to kill Grath and remove the threat of the Blood-moon gang forever. The people admire his bravery, but how many of them will actually join him?
Planet Anthromorph is a barren, dry world of part human part animal beings, called Beast-kin. You can be any animal mix, for example, wolf-kin bear-kin, goat-kin, rabbit-kin, horse-kin, etc. The setting is wild west, but with laser weaponry. The planet is rich with a special crystal. When mined, the crystal can be focused into a laser for short period of times, great for firearms and explosive devices.
Rules
1. No godmodding. You cannot have an overly powerful character, and you cannot kill or control other people’s characters without their permission.
2. No metagaming. Your character cannot have knowledge that is not available to them in-game, even if you as a player have that knowledge.
3. Only 1 character per player MAX.
4. Character names need titles – For example, Grath the vicious, Rip the hunter (my character), etc.
5. No lightsabers. Lasers only work in short bursts.
6. Make your posts nice and easy to read. It doesn’t matter how long your posts are, as long as the message gets across clearly. Minor spelling and grammar mistakes are allowed, but only if they are mistakes.
KTHATSITNOMOAR!
Those are your 6 options. Be damned If I make any more. XD

How was I going to run 6 games at once? 
Especially Game 1 - That would easily be the hardest to manage.
