"If I die, I won't have to be afraid anymore..." - Kuja (Dissidia, reference to FF9's final battle dialouge) What happens after you die? Well, many stories attempt to give an explanation. For the characters of anime and games, however, it's all up to the imagination. Waking up, several people find themselves in the Land of the Dead, the innermost realm, and safest to formerly living souls. Well, sticking around to await judgement in one VERY long line doesn't seem like too much fun. So several of the dearly departed wish to make the journey backwards, into the farthest and most dangerous realm. Where the journey leads to reincarnation, and another life. Whoo. Still reading? Ok, so here we go. Choose an anime/game/book/movie character, who, within the canon realms of their story has ALREADY died (ex: Hughes, Aerith, Lelouche) or is constantly surrounded by dead people (shinigamis, etc). Whether they be a hero or villain (a lot more of those XD ), they've joined forces to get another life. *NO OC'S. *Pick anyone who's dead or among the dead. * And please use this: Appearance Title of origin (anime - whatever) Age Upon Death (AUD) Power Backstory My characters: Kuja Appearance: (normal) (trance) Title of Origin: Final Fantasy IX AUD: 24 Power: Sorcery (FF Black Magic) Backstory: A powerful, misanthropic sorcerer who tricked a queen into waging war and making golems known as Black Mages to fight for her. Then, as she turned on him, he turned on and killed her before trying to rule the whole world. But before he could accomplish his final goal, he found he had a very limited life. So he used his power to try and destroy the world. But in the end, he was defeated by the hero, his little brother Zidane, whom he apologized to before joining the others in the Land of the Dead.

Name: Spike Spiegel Appearance: Title of Origin: Cowboy Bebop AUD: 27 Power: Skills with a pistol, knows Jeet Kune Do Backstory: Was recently bounty hunting with a ragtag group of people until he was killed by his ultimate rival, Vicious, after his lover, Julia, was killed before his eyes. He's a bit curious if he'll be able to find her here in the afterlife, but he's not really looking hard, since, as he says, "I got all the time in the world." Name: Mihael Keehl "Mello" Appearance: Title of Origin: Death Note AUD: 20 Power: He shoots things with guns? He knows how to take people hostage and rule a mafia? ...He's brave Backstory: Mello was one of L's disciples who went up against Kira but ultimately lost by burning to death in a church. His assistance in the case however led to Light Yagami's capture. Without his help, Light may have escaped to continue his killing spree.

Name: Misa Amane Appearance: Title of Origin: Death Note AUD: 26 Power: "Shinigami Eyes" - can see people's names and time of death Backstory: A girl with an immense crush on Kira, Misa is a popular Japanese idol. She is immature and tends to refer to herself in the third person in an attempt to be cute. She is completely devoted to Light, saying that she loved him at first sight, although the feeling is hardly mutual- since Light merely views her as a rather annoying asset. In the manga version, she kills herself after Light's death, which is implied in the anime's finale. What happens to her after the film version is uncertain- the only remaining characters whose fates are revealed are L and the Yagami family- although she is still devastated when Light is killed. [Yay for Wiki~ >__>;] Name: Alphonse (Al) Elric Appearance: Title of Origin: Fullmetal Alchemist AUD: 15 Power: Soul Alchemy Backstory: Alphonse gives his soul to The Gate when trying to revive his older brother, Edward. At The Gate, Al's soul meets with his body that has aged along with his soul, giving him an older appearance since the last time his body had been seen.

((I'll be one to break the Death Note character playing. XD Name: Euphemia li Britannia Appearance: Anime: Code Geass AUD: 18 (Is my guess because she could attend school but unable to because of duties.) Powers: Because of her 'crime' she uses guns although she's not so good while not influenced. Backstory: The former Third Princess of Britannia and Sub-Viceroy of Area 11, Euphy was known as a woman with a kind and gentle heart who wanted equality in the world around her. But by accident on her younger brother's behalf, she instead killed many Japanese during a ceremony. It was the same brother who shot and killed her to stop it. Name: Shion Sonozaki Appearance: Series: Higurashi Naru no Koro Ni AUD: 16 Powers: None, uses daggers and a taiser instead. Backstory: Part of a rich family, Shion was sent to live away from her birth village of Himanizawa. After meeting a boy from there, Satoshi, she falls in love but it is shattered after his disapperance. Thinking that people can't be trusted, she succumbs to her paranoia and kills several people before falling off a buliding to her own death.

((ok. if you wanna jump in, tell me please!))
The land was barren, with people coming in from doors with nothing behind them. A few rickety trees lay around the doors. Farther ahead, these people who refused to wander went into the enormous lines of people. It went on for miles, with millions awaiting to see if they'd get peace or oblivion. None seemed to wonder why there was no sun or moon, yet light emenated from an unknown force.
A voice sounded over the crowd, "...THE OPPOSITE WAY IS TO REINCARNATION. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO LEAVE THE LINE. IF YOU WISH FOR HEAVEN OR FOR JUDGEMENT, PLEASE STAY IN LINE. NO PUSHING, NO CUTTING. THERE'S NO TIME LIMIT, YOU WILL NOT AGE OR FATIGUE. PLEASE STAY IN LINE."
Kuja sighed angrily. He hated being around people, and these people were the worst. Poor, badly dressed, and stupid. They shuffled up passed and around him in the lines. Glancing up, he could see the line to the lights and fires went on for forever.
He gritted his teeth and finally shouted, "That's enough!" He left the line, shoving his way through the crowd and exited to another path. "I'll find my way to another life. Forget those pedestrians."

Spike exhaled in frustration, leaning against a wall that wasn't really a part of anything. "Man, I wish they had cigarettes and somethin' to eat around here. What's the big deal?" He complained.
"Well, you could always get back in line."
"As if."
Spike had been there for a few... whatevers... There was no real way to judge time in this place, but he'd been there for awhile anyway, and he'd met up with some leather-clad, scarred man with a bit of an attitude problem called Mello a short time ago, and the two had stuck together ever since. It seemed neither of them had wanted to stand in line for eons of time (as Mello said, "What's the deal? Does this mean Hell is the DMV office? Figures. I knew it."), and so they'd wandered off the path but found nothing.
Spike didn't really care. He wasn't hungry really, but he wanted food, and his nicotine addiction seemed to have followed him into the afterlife as well. If that was what the place was.
Mello smirked. "You and those cigarettes. You sound just like Matt."

Edward had looked around and shuddered, as if the place made him cold. He couldn't remember how long he had been there, but it was starting to drive him insane. 'How did I die again?' he wondered, forgetting why he was here in the first place. He was expecting to see the gate, but it wasn't there. "What is this place? Am I really dead?" he thought out loud.
He was standing in a large line and, wondering where it lead to, he peeked around the person in front of him, trying to get a better view. It was pointless. The line went on for as far as he could see. There were just way to many people here. 'Are all of these people really dead?' he wondered to himself again.
Ed sighed and gave up. He heard the loud boom of a voice say not to get out of line, but he was bored to death. As soon as he stepped out of line, he looked back to see that the line had gotten bigger. "Okay, this is ridiculous," he said and walked away. "Now...where do I go now?"

Alphonse sat slouched over himself on what seemed to be nothing. He twiddled this thumbs and sighed as he overheard the loud conversations going on by the people in the enormous line. He leaned back on his hands, stretching his back and taking a good look in all directions.
Nothing.
What seemed like absolutely nothing was actually something and what seems like something was really nothing. You could see people leaning against walls yet others could walk right behind them.
Al sighed again, wondering where he was and why exactly. He remembered trying to save his older brother, and then a quick moment at the gate where he found what he assumed was his body, all grown up. He looked down at the clothes he was wearing, thinking it to be an interesting choice that he had no control over.
--
"Ohh, where am I? This is not what I expected," groaned Misa as she fiddled with one of her longer necklaces. Misa put her hand over her eyes as if there was a sun, and tried to see beyond the endless color of white. She didn't remember anything, all she knew was that she just seemed to wake up in a standing position at the back of some line, but more and more people appeared behind her by the second.
As much as she didn't want to, she kept to the loud voice's commands of staying in line. Just maybe she'd find her Light...
