Welcome to Gallagher’s Pub, the greatest place in town to get real authentic Irish food, a good drink, and… Oh, you’re here for the guild! Well in that case, kick off your shoes, grab some grub, and pick a room in the back if you plan on staying a while. It’s been a while since I’ve time traveled, but I remember it being exhausting. Anyways, is this your first time on Earth? Oh, you were born here, sorry about that. You must know about the Korex then, right? No? Well, it’s a good thing you stopped by then. It’s hard to tell who’s a Korex and who’s just a regular old human, with the Korex imitating you guys almost perfectly, but don’t be fooled. There’s a little rule of thumb we at the guild use to identify them. If a human throws a car at you, they probably aren’t a human and you should probably run. Don’t lose too much sleep over it though, we’re safe in here. Well, enjoy your stay!

The Guild
A loosely formed guild, if one at all, the time traveler’s guild is an ever-changing group of time travelers who get together every now and then at a small pub called Gallagher’s to exchange stories, rest for a while, occasionally save the world, and in the end go about their business of meddling with time. All except for Seamus Gallagher, the founder of the guild. It keeps up a good front too, serving food and drink to regulars who come in frequently, having no clue that any particular car parked outside could be a time machine, or that the friendly fellow they’re having a good chat with could be an alien from thousands of years in the future. But, and this has only ever happened once before, if a regular were to step back into where the kitchen should be, they would quickly realize that things were not quite as they thought they were, as that is where the travelers bunks, as well as Gallagher’s own machine, are situated.

Class Descriptions
Time Traveler: Human, machine, or alien, the travelers are quite a diverse bunch, with only their control of time as a commonplace between all of them.
Regulars: These are your normal humans, most completely and utterly oblivious to the fact that time is something that can be controlled. But not all of them, some take their place as companions or travelers in training, some are still new to the world of time travel, and some don’t like it at all and want nothing more than to stop people from a harmless bit of time meddling.
Korex: A microscopic mechanical race from the distant future, these mind controlling aliens look to destroy the guild and, ideally, Earth with it, using their human hosts as weapons.

Modes of Time Travel
(Feel free to tell me if I’m missing anything)
Ability/Superpower (ex. Hiro Nakamura) (0/3)
Vehicle/Spacecraft (ex. The TARDIS, the Delorean) (0/4)
Stationary Time Machine (ex. The phone box in Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure) (0/3)
Artifact (ex. Time Turner) (1/4)

Alien List
Korex: The Korex used to be a highly advanced, but rather uninteresting species, traveling from planet to planet every now and then but for the most part remaining collective homebodies. This is what, in the end, lead to their destruction. No one is quite sure what truly happened, or why it happened, but the Korex at least know the ‘who’ of the unfortunate incident. A time traveler, with no ill intentions to speak of, accidentally set about a series of events that lead to the reduction of the entire surface of the Korex’s home planet to a barren, molten wasteland. The Korex, being technologically advanced as they were, were able to transport the personalities of a minuscule portion of their species into microscopic machines capable of controlling the minds of those who’s bodies they enter. Transported back to Earth by the same traveler who destroyed their planet in the first place, they now live amongst us in human hosts and have done so for many years. The hosts are unaware of the presence of the Korex, completely incapable of ever regaining control and doomed to die as soon as their invader leaves to find a new host. While the Korex is in control though, the host has physical abilities far beyond that of any normal human. Korex are extremely difficult to kill, as their microscopic size makes them nearly impervious to all normal weapons. Though some Korex have found it within them to forgive the time travelers and have given up their plans for destruction, a majority are still out for blood.
Dorcevinaw: Much like Darwin’s finches, the Dorcevinaw are a very diverse species originating on the island planet of Dorcev IV, now an intergalactic vacation spot and popular sight seeing destination. Despite their diversity, all Dorcevinaw share the same characteristics of a long, lanky body with a thick tail for balance, large plates going over the top of their head, a brightly colored plumage running down their neck, and chest spines, typically with the same bright colors. They also share a love of travel, especially time travel, having invented their own means by way of sit-in, stationary machines long before humans even discovered electricity. That doesn’t mean they stick with those machines by any means, frequently purchasing or trading other means from travelers in search of a thrill outside of their own inventions. With a lifespan of about 1000 years, give or take a few, they’re able to get a lot of traveling and thrill seeking done. Dorcevinaw characters include: Seamus Gallagher

Rules and Such
(Looks like a lot, but it’s mostly just me over-explaining things.)
(Looks like a lot, but it’s mostly just me over-explaining things.)
-Forum rules are my rules.
-No godmodding.
-No controlling anyone else’s character without their permission
-Character killing must be discussed and agreed upon by both parties
-I don’t have any rules on literacy or post length, just please keep in mind that it’s kinda hard to reply to one liners
-I won’t delete people for inactivity since I have a lot going on myself, but if you’re gone for a while, I won’t require anyone to keep your characters frozen with yours if they don’t want them to be. (This goes for characters frozen with mine as well.)
-If something about this RP is making you uncomfortable for any reason, don’t hesitate to message me and I’ll work to resolve it.
-This RP is OC and canon friendly, however, canon characters have to be time travelers in some manner. If you aren’t sure if they are or not, feel free to run them past me.
-Now for some ‘and such’
-Kortex can be good guys, travelers can be evil. Though I would prefer to have more good travelers than Korex and vise versa, don’t let that stop you from making your character how you would like them to be.
-If you want to submit a public alien to the alien list, please just give me a detailed description similar to the two I have provided. -You can also submit a drawing of them, otherwise I will make one if time permits (unless you don’t want me to. I’ll also be sure to run the sketches past you before posting them) You will be credited for any submitted species or drawings. If you don’t want the species to be public, just put the details in your form.
