Yep, we're all about the magical girls up in here! LOL.
Okay in all seriousness, this is something me and Legato came up with. An RPG based around magical girl style anime's.
This thread will be used for discussion purposes and I will create the sign up soon after.
So, here's what I've come up with so far.
Now, as is typical for magical girl RPG's, there are transformation sequences.
However, I kind of wanted to do something different for this one.
The girls utilize magical orbs that contain the souls of the Senshi that they will transform into. The difference being, the users will 'go to sleep' as it were and the Magical Girls fight in their place. Kind of like in Yugioh when the Millenium Item spirits take over the wearer's. Overtime, the girls and the spirits will become more aware of each other and start working together culminating in the spirits merging, which will unlock the super forms for each Senshi.
Furthermore, the various Senshi don't work together at first but are eventually forced to do so by circumstances.
See, the various Magical Girls were their own people, some good, some evil, some neutral but they all fought against the forces of darkness. In the end, they sacrificed their lives to protect the world they loved, their souls being contained with each of the magic orbs that they carried with them and scattered around the world.
Now, as each girl finds their destined partner, they shall be forced to find themselves again, work with their new allies to save the world and defeat the darkness once and for all.

For instance one of the main magical girls in this RPG isn't the usual goody two shoes type. For instance, before the call, she was more like The Libby. Her Tuxedo Mask esque mysterious protector watches over her but there are other reasons behind it.

Admin wrote:Alright, now for a magical girl!Name: Caroline
Magical Girl Name: The Senshi of Joy: Leticia
Appearance: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/244/d/3/emo_drawchat_by_dark_alchimest-d2xtp62.png
Transformed Appearance: https://2img.net/h/oi48.tinypic.com/do9cn6.jpg
https://2img.net/h/oi50.tinypic.com/347enaa.jpg
Bio: Caroline is a quiet girl who is ignored by her workaholic parents and bullied at school frequently. As such she just keeps to herself all the time and keeps her head down. That will all change when she finds the orb of Leticia, transforming her into the Senshi of Joy.
Leticia herself is practically the polar opposite of Caroline, a wisecracking jester who likes to have fun and eat sweets. But do not let this fool you, she is a fast warrior, relying on speed, agility and athleticism to dance around her enemies and take her time to bring them down. Her wickedly powerful Clown Bomber finisher spells doom for her enemies.
If she has a weakness, it's in her playful nature. She likes to have fun and take her time, which can lead her into trouble.
Overtime the two personalities will merge, resulting in a much happier and more outgoing Caroline.
Finisher Attack: Clown Bomber: Leticia holds out both hands and a purple orb appears between them and then swells up. A clown face appears on the orb and Leticia fires upon the enemy. The eyes on the orb bug out and the face laughs madly as it collides with the opponent and explodes.

Transformed: http://fc06.deviantart.net/images/i/2003/39/9/3/Cat.jpg
Species: Demon
Bio: An agent of the darkness on Earth, she serves to corrupt humans into doing horrible deeds, which leads to them being transformed, which leads to the monster fights. She desperately wants to obtain the rank of General and will go to any lengths to obtain that rank. While she appears to be a harmless talking cat at first, her true form is anything but. Muffin is strong, agile, ferocious and lightning fast. You'll want to be on your guard or preferably with a team when fighting her. She also has 9 lives but has to wait an entire day to come back from the dead each time and dying is not fun for her.
Essentially, she's an evil version of Luna from SM.
She'll be a villain for an arc or two.

I actually had an idea regarding that if you're interested.
Lay it on me!
So, it's typical for a libby to travel with a posse right? Now, aside from the conflict between Caroline and the libby character on and off the field, it stands to reason that the libby posse would be equally cruel, if not more so.
So.
As the libby character undergoes character development, she becomes more nice and a better person and starts hanging out with Caroline and they become friends.
Meanwhile, her former friends start drifting apart from her as she becomes a better person and more heroic and such.
The 'second in command' of the posse, who has been one of the cruelest, gets comically punished several times over the course of the story, typical slapstick stuff, and Caroline even tells her off at one point and her former friend even turns her back on her.
She...does not take this well, and after some more humiliations, just goes on a rage and trashes her room and the expensive stuff she had treasured and shown off so much.
This is when Encanta pops up, when she's at her most vulnerable.

She makes an offer. She'll give her the tool to get her revenge, and the girl opens her heart to the darkness inside of her. The girl gives in and gets her own orb and transformation.

She goes crazy with power and starts by brainwashing the posse, who had been drifting apart themselves, to stay loyal to her and starts being more outright confrontational, actually fighting it out with her former friend in broad daylight when both are untransformed.
Then comes the battle when she confronts the the heroines in their transformed states and transforms herself. They fight and it's awesome.
Essentially, she serves as a dark mirror to your libby character, what she could turn out like if she went for the darkness.
Thoughts?
