Board Thread:Roleplay/@comment-9434717-20160820144710

This will be based more on Attack the Light and Final Fantasy-type games and less on Pokemon and similar games.

(Prepare for a wall of text.)

Plot
A new gem colony has been founded on the planet of Pjaneta, in the mostly peaceful and quiet solar system of Karthos. However, on an unfortunate, yet bizzare blackout, the colony has lost all of its communicators, digital maps of the galaxy, and most things digital. Homeworld eventually forgot about them, due to the Diamond's busy schedules and the fact that no one could communicate and remind them of the colony. So, the gems built their own society on the planet, and now live a free, diamondless life under a single line of Quartzes that each succeed the next if one happens to shatter. However, this is only about a fifth of the planet. The rest is unexplored and unknown, filled with corrupted gems and other vile creatures. Nobody has ever mapped this part, as they are all safe within the city walls and feel no need to venture out. This is 200,000 years after the original city of  Hovedstad was founded.

Rules

 * Please don't take over the roleplay unless I explicitly allow you to, and even if I do, don't go too far with the plot.


 * No metagaming, being overpowered, e.t.c. Standard Roleplay rules apply here.

Battle Rules

 * Once you submit your gem, you must pick out 5 abilities for your gem to use, and post them on the post where you submit your gem. If the ability involves doing damage, rank the level as "Light Damage, Medium Damage, and Heavy Damage."


 * One of these abilities must use the gem's weapon, at least 2 must use its abilities, and one must be more powerful than the rest but require more turns to charge up.


 * "Charging Up" Mechanic: You may use up to 3 abilities per turn, however abilities must charge up inbetween turns, ranging from zero turns for the weakest attacks, up to 4 for the heaviest.


 * Poofing will cause a gem to not be able to attack, however they will gain 50 HP. Poofed gems will respawn after the battle ends with 1 HP.


 * If a poofed gem takes 50 or more damaged, they are Cracked and will not be able to be attacked. They can only be healed with items that can un-shatter gems or if they are taken to a Healing Station.


 * 1-4 gems can be in a party at once, and they can all attack at the same time once they are in a battle.
