The year is 2016. For the humans, the world is normal, the same as it always has been. But for the Minis, they're in the middle of the largest war of their life. Mini against Mini, each fighting for their own cause. One side wants to stay hidden, continue living in the shadows, out of the human eye. While the other, wants to become known, become allies with the humans, and work together to bring about a better life. What side are you on?
Introduction (Minis)
Your home is Central Park, the grass and trees providing adequate cover. Your home is most likely built into a tree, or else, built underground. Either way, it's highly unlikely the giants will ever run across you. At least, not on accident. The war's going on, with many Minis dying for what they believe in. Maybe you're for an alliance with the giants. Maybe you're against it. Or maybe, just maybe, you don't care either way. No matter what your thoughts are, the world is not safe for you, not anymore. And it won't be until the war ends, either with one clear victor, or extinction. Whatever the case may be, you've got to live while you can.
Introduction (Humans)
You live in New York, somewhere near Central Park. It's a nice place to go, especially on a warm summer day. Sometimes, it gets a little crowded, but with how big it is, that doesn't happen unless there's a major event. Whatever the reason may be, you travel by it quite often. Completely oblivious to the world below, the people, or rather, bugs in your eyes. Heck, what would you do if you discovered that tiny people existed. Would you ignore them, treating them as bugs? Would you befriend them? Or would you simply think you're crazy. Each response being relatively understandable. But until that day comes, you'll just be ignorant.
Minis (Explained)
Minis look like human beings on the outside. They have two eyes, a nose, two ears, a mouth, etc. The only visible difference is their size. How small are they? I roughly estimate them to be around the size of an ant. Basically, picture them as really hard to detect, unless you know they are there, or you have really good eyesight. Now, while their outside looks the same, their insides are completely different.
Elasticlay is what makes up their insides. They do not have bones, organs, or even blood. It's virtually all elasticlay inside. If you haven't guessed, elasticlay gets it's name for it's similar properties to two material; elastic and clay. For example, if a Mini got stepped on, the elasticlay in their bodies will react instantly, flattening them to conform to the space they have left. And around 2 minutes after the foot has left, they'll regain their original shape.
Back to their outsides for a moment, their skin, while human in appearance, has abilities beyond any mere human's skin. First off, it's incredibly soft and comfortable to the touch. Beyond that, it has incredible protection properties. It can protect against the hottest of temperatures and liquids, as well as the coldest. All these things are a part of the reason they've been able to survive so long.
Now, of course they have a weakness, otherwise they'd be immortal. Minis are weak to gold. While just touching the substance won't kill them, if they are pierced severely enough with gold, it will cause a terrible reaction with the elasticlay, causing them to basically explode. Their other weakness is old age, which typically for them is around 90-100 years old.
While Minis don't have illnesses that can kill them, they are not immune. Occasionally, Minis will get too hot, or too cold on the inside, due to a disease. If they're hot, they will harden up, and will barely be able to move until the illness has passed. If they're cold, they become runny. In other words, they can't hold their form, and are more like a puddle on the ground.
Finally, the best part of Minis is their abilities. They only have two, but these two are incredible. Both require the Mini to make a physical connection, with either another Mini or a human. (A physical connection being their bare skins touching.) The first and simpler of the two, allows them to communicate through thought. Minis can send and receive thoughts, similar to telepathy. The second, and more powerful, is the Minis ability to share dreams and daydreams with the other party. In a place called the Dream Space, anything can happen, it all feels realistic, and anything bad that happens doesn't affect them outside of the Dream Space. During day dreams, the Mini only has so much energy, before they can't hold up the space anymore, while at night, they can be together as long as a normal dream lasts. Rules
1. All Forum Rules Apply 2. No Perfect Characters 3. Be Friendly and Courteous to Other Members 4. Keep Spelling and Grammar Errors to a Minimum 5. Try to Post at the Very Least: 1 Medium Length Paragraph, A Day 6. Please Notify Me of any Absences 7. Have fun!
Character Sheet
If you know me, you know I hate character sheets. Generally, they make me plan out my character, rather than have him go with the flow. Because honestly, my character doesn't tend to always follow his sheet, because he grows and evolves. However, given that this is a group roleplay, to organize characters, I need character sheets. So I'll make it real simple. Your character sheet needs the following: Name Age Gender Species (If Mini, Stance on the Issues [For Alliance, Against, Neutral]) Username If you want to use that half-baked form I made, go right ahead. However, you can give me this information in whatever format you're comfortable with. And as long as it has this, I will accept you, almost guaranteed.

Nathaniel was meeting with some other Minis, other's who wanted to further their cause, help bring the Alliance together. He began speaking, being somewhat of a leader. "We need to take matters into our own hands. The elders are not going to help us, so we should help ourselves." Running his hands through his short, dark brown hair, Nathan finally said what he'd been thinking. "We need to go and contact the giants. If we can make it away from the enemy, we could look for a giant to make peaceful contact with. And if all goes well, we could bring on the alliance ourselves. At that point, the opposing side will have only one of three options. Join us, be imprisoned, or die."
~
Meanwhile, James was out there, watching for other Minis. At one point in time, not so long ago, everything was peaceful. Minis didn't really fight, they didn't really have wars. But now, here they were, fighting among each other. Man vs. Man. It was really a shame, but the fact was, they couldn't reveal their existence to giants. They'd kept it secret for thousands of years, with good reason. Giants could easily enslave them, kill them, do anything they wanted. And James wasn't ready to die. Rubbing his bald head, shaved for the fight, he began moving forward. He aimed to injure, not kill, but in war, he kept all possibilities open.

{ I'm so sorry for disappearing! ._. }
Devessa listened to her 'leader' she wrinkled her nose at the idea of the choices. But it's true, the thought ran quickly across her mind. She put her arms behind her head and bit at her lip. Yeah, peace was long gone for now. And there won't be peace for awhile since neither side seems to want to come to an agree to disagree movement. The young girl thought heavily on this situation to the point where she blocked what Nathaniel was saying. She ended up half way just groaning and getting up. "Contacting the giants," she said but in a mocking tone. "That's going to go well over with everyone." She said sarcastically towards Nathan. The red-head gave a huff before leaving the area.
*optional* { I can't tell if Devessa and James would be able to see each other so I just am going to put this optional post. cx
and what if James and Devessa used to be friends but they aren't anymore due to their different opinions with the alliance? }
As the young woman exited where Nathan was she looked around. Her green eyes searching her surroundings and slowly she found James. She stared at her former friend with longing. She longed to be able to hang out and have a true laugh with him. Make jokes and be happy. But that can't happen anymore. She is part of the alliance and he is not. That's just what happens, she thought. "What a drag."

(It's fine, I've just been listening to music, so I wasn't bored while waiting.)
Noticing a Mini by the name of Devessa having somewhat of an attitude, he shook his head as he watched her leave the tree roots in which their base of operations was nestled. He wondered if he should follow her, but it wasn't exactly like he could talk sense into her. The fact was, he had to take action, ideally not going it alone, so that they could end this war. Nathaniel much longed for peace, knowing that not all anti-alliance Minis were bad. But as long as they were on opposing sides, and nobody could come to an agreement, the war would wage on. "Alright, where was I?"
~
(For the sake of not having him too close, maybe she walked fifty steps and then saw him cx As for her and James, I like that idea. It could cause some friction.)
James continued walking. He was wearing clothing made entirely of leaves. However, his chest had a vest woven of twigs. This was supposed to be a barrier, in case anybody tried to stab him. Other parts were vulnerable still, but the damage would be the most severe at the chest... In the distance, maybe 10 steps out, he heard a voice. Turning, he saw Devessa, a former friend, turned enemy. He should fight her, but... she was his friend before, so he couldn't bring himself to harm her. He just nodded at her, in a way telling her she was free to move along.

Devessa's outfit was made of the same material. Except that she wore a leaf top that the chest piece was woven in twigs and that her skirt was woven in leaves. Her red hair was curly and down to her chest. She kept staring at James. Sadness curled over her face and she shook her head. She got into a stance, an fighting stance as she stared at her old friend. Can't make any suspicion happen, she thought and was hoping that James was taking the hint. "Nothing personal.." she murmured under her breath. Please understand, she prayed. After all of this, hopefully we can become friends again.

James simply watched, feeling a little discomfort in the moment. He didn't want to do this, but seeing as his former friend was now turning to fight, he had to do something. He couldn't appear weak, not to his enemies, and not to his allies. He had to stand strong, stand tough, and stand his ground. Sighing, he looked at her and decided he'd offer her one last chance. A verbal warning. "Walk away now, Devessa. I don't want to hurt you, but for the sake of our cause, I will do what's necessary."

"Don't you get it buddy?" she slightly retorted. Devessa just wanted him to take the hint that to not raise suspicion this fight will be needed. "We have to act upon what we believe in," the red-head murmured. She stood up straight and put her hands on her hips. He's not going to budge unless I annoy him too much, she silently told herself. She put one hand out like saying c'mon. "What a drag," she quietly told herself. Her green eyes stared at her old friend with no emotion. "Or...are you too scared to come at me?" She taunted.

Sighing, James didn't see any other way. She wasn't budging, she wasn't going to just let him let her go. She was looking for a fight. He knew, back when they were friends, she was stubborn, so this wasn't too surprising. But it still made him a little upset inside. When she taunted him, he put his feelings away, and he started running after her, lunging forward. He didn't pull out anything dangerous, but he ended up knocking her down with his larger size.

Devessa took a deep breath when she saw him coming towards her. At a boy, she grinned as she was taken to the ground but being smaller she got on top of him and pinned him down. She leaned forward with a smirk on her face, batting her green eyes at him. "We haven't been this close to each other in awhile, right James?" She told him but she removed herself from him and got into her fighting stance again. "Are you actually going to fight me or are you going to continue just throwing yourself onto me?" She taunted even more. A sly smirk approached her pale face. "Well James, if you really wanted to get with a girl you could've been more proper about it." She teased.

Right now, James head wasn't clear. He didn't think about what to do after taking her down, considering he didn't even think of how she could use her smaller size to her advantage. Her continuous taunts were angering him. Getting to his feet, he nearly charged again, but taking a deep breath, he stopped himself. He didn't want to do this, as much as she was pushing his buttons. "Look Devessa, I'm not looking for a fight right now. You're really pushing me, and if you keep pushing, I will go all out. I think it'd be better for both of us if you just left." He held a charging stance, but he didn't want to have to use it.

"Do I have to beat it into you that we HAVE to fight?" Devessa snapped. "If we just walked away from each other and not do anything about spotting each other then we both could get in huge trouble." She tried to explain. The young female knew that her teasing was getting to him. "Don't underestimate me," she said and kept her stance. "Your not the only one who knows how to fight!"

"Damn it, Devessa. Fine, you want a fight, I'll give you a fight." This time, when he lunged at her, he didn't tumbled down with her. Instead, he landed a gut punch, so as not to make the same mistakes. He really didn't want to go through with this, but she left him no choice. He had to fight her, at least in her eyes. It wasn't like anybody was watching, but maybe she was simply starving for a fight. Whatever the case, James was going to deliver.

Devessa tried not to gasp and skidded back quickly. "Nice job," a crooked grin appeared on her face but she quickly wrapped her arms around his wrist and forearm and then her legs kicked up and wrapped themselves around the upper part of his arm. She clung on and smirked. In all reality she kinda looked like a sloth on a tree limb. It was going to be hard to shake her off.

(Hey, can I ask something of you? Would you be willing to add a second character, a human, preferably? I understand if you don't want to though.)
"Really Devessa, is that all you got?" He said, slightly frustrated, but starting to actually enjoy the fight. There was a stem of a dandelion nearby. Lifting his arm, he swung it around, knocking her against the stem. He didn't know if it'd knock her off, but he could imagine it'd hurt, at least a little.

Devessa chuckled, "you're one to talk!" She hissed and one of her legs got away from his arm and kicked him hard right in the face. Before he could recoil and decide to attack she let go of him and backed up a little. "Do you remember us sparring?" She questioned him. It wasn't as vicious as this, but it was still fun. She silently told herself.

(Alright cool! I feel bad leaving Nathan all alone cx)
James spat as he got a face full of foot. It took him a moment to regain composure, before responding. "Yeah, of course I do. Back then though, there wasn't really anything to fight for. We were just having fun. Unfortunately, for you, that's not the case." Part of him debated turning and running, to save her. And the other part was bloodthirsty and uncaring.

"You make it sound like this fight is a bad thing," Devessa chuckled and charged him. She leaped up and somehow ended up on his shoulders. "You were always a fighter," she whispered in his ear. "I wish we could be friends again, but you know. Things happen" she then grabbed an handful of hair and forced him to look at her. "You still have a baby face. Oh my," she giggled.

Nathan was studying giants, although he hadn't shared it with other members of the cause. He had a few options, and while he'd prefer a female, feeling they'd be a safer choice, he knew of one giant who came through their territory often. He seemed to have a routine, perhaps he could try and get his attention, but he wasn't certain yet.
Sighing, he wasn't sure what they were doing anymore. He didn't want to fight her, because he knew if it got too intense, he'd seriously harm her. Finally, he made a decision, but as he was about to act on it, he felt his head get tugged upward. "Why you little runt! Get off of me, and fight me like a man."
(This is going to be interesting, although I'm not sure how far I'll take it. At least, with Nathan.)

Toby was walking through the park like on a regular day. Headphones blaring his favorite music, the small breeze rustling his dark brown hair. He finally found a comfortable spot under a nice large tree. He sighed and leaned up against the trunk, closing his dark blue eyes. He began to hum the song he was listening to.
"What you call me?!" She raised her voice and jumped off but only to wrap her arm around his neck and slammed him to the ground. She stared down at him, her green eyes darkening. "Take it back!" She ordered and grabbed one of his ear lobes' with her fingers, tugging it.

(I think I'm going to end up creating myself a new character. I don't know why but I typically have a hard time playing my character with a character of the same gender. So, perhaps I'll take this chance to practice writing females.
Oh and it's fine ^.^ I can work with it.)
The sounds of thunderous, quaking steps signified what Nathan had been expecting. Sighing, a part of him knew that he wasn't the one. But, still he had to try... Or did he...? Walking into a different room, there was a girl sitting at a desk. "Marissa, I have a very special mission for you." And with that, he began explaining the plan to her.
"What, are you my mother?" He said, after regaining his breath. Admittedly, even if she was smaller, she still could take the wind out of him. But the way she grabbed his ear reminded him of how he was scolded as a kid. While she was trying to get him to take it back, he pulled out a knife he had stored in his side pocket. He slashed at her leg with it. It was only made of sharpened wood, but hopefully it'd be enough to slow her down for awhile.

{ I'm fairly good with role playing as females so I also take some time to try and practice the opposite gender, just for fun. }
Toby began swaying to the music as he hummed. His fingers tapped on his legs and his hair bounced with his movements. At the moment the man was completely oblivious to whats going on around him. He wasn't a popular person around here, didn't have many friends. He kind of is a nerd, the little things in life is what interests him.
The young woman jumped back and looked at the light slash on her leg. "Shady....alright then weapons it is," she grinned and pulled out a small axe she had. It was small, just a hand axe that was made of wood. But on the 'blade' part thorns stuck out. She began tossing it up in the air and catching it. Making sure to only be grabbing the handle. She tipped her head innocently at him and smiled. "C'mon, James."
{ maybe if this fight continues out till after Toby and the mini talk, Nathan sees the fight and tries to kill James and it causes conflict because Devessa wants to protect both? }
