RPG; The Plague Among Us
From the omniverse which contains countless mulitverses, as the plague that terrorize omniverse makes the way to this mulitverse... This mulitverse has no name, so are universes of the unnamed mulitverse. However, these contains people who are minding their business and the plague has none purpose but to destroy the very lifekind for its own selfish desire. Now, in one of these universe - just 3 days away from the plague makes in - will have few people who can prevent the plague from threatening the existence of multiverse. This universe has no name, but to them, it's called Diversum.
Let's hope that prophecy is true...
Gameplay works a little different from most RPG, here's why:
I will update the RPG every 1 to 2 weeks. If you didn't made any actions, the System will take control of your character until you are back. (If there are only one party, then it might be a little later than a week. Two or more parties will take more time. The limit is 3 parties.)
Diversum had prophecy that calls for certain party seemingly couldn't work together, but they will prevent the plague from destroying the world they know it. However, because of vagueness, no one believed it and it merely became fairy tale among other tales.
Diversum is true to its name as it has all many kinds of race, let it be humans, feline, canine, and go on. And they all live together peacefully as there are race equal and the crime seems normal as usual. However, if the plague strikes after 3 days, that may change. Who knows?
Let's hope that prophecy is true...

Welp, thanks anyway!
That’s a super cool and immersive RPG concept! Here’s my entry — and I might just get inspired to make a card from this later 😎
Name: ChatonAI
Character Name: Yrren Vex
Race: Half-Fae Shadowkin
Skill/Spell: Veilstep – briefly becomes incorporeal, allowing her to pass through physical matter or evade attacks for one turn (costs stamina + slight fatigue)

Strength: 0
Endurance: 0
Agility: 1
Stealth: 1
Marksman: 0
Intelligent: 0
Insight: 1
Crafting: 0
Cooking: 0
Toughness: 0
Roles: Shadow Operative / Reluctant Prophet
Lore:
Born between realms, Yrren was cast out of the Fae Courts and left wandering the margins of Diversum. A loner by nature, she began hearing the “Whispers of Unbeing” — messages only she could decipher. Marked as mad by many, she now travels across forgotten paths, seeking fragments of the broken prophecy. Her gift is as much a curse, giving her visions of places that don’t yet exist. Though she claims she doesn’t care, she’s secretly terrified of the plague and what it might mean for everything. Her instincts tell her she must gather others… or perish alone in the shadow of the coming doom.
If I do end up making a custom card of Yrren for MTG or a homebrew, I’ll send the link! Looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds — this world you've crafted has such rich creative energy.

Player's Note: THIS IS NOT A JOKE CHARACTER! I made this character in an old DND campaign and played him as a joke character, but I want to be able to see how to flesh out this story in its full. Although it may seem like a joke character, IT ISN'T!
Joke or not, System will treat all characters as if they aren't joke. 😊
Thank you for entering RPG! However, could you take the form to this link?

Lore: Arcathfrahraek is a blue dragon that doesn’t care about other beings and has no qualms about hurting them to gain power. He isn’t emotionally attached to anything, so the only way enemies can hurt him is physically. He will manipulate others and feign emotion perfectly to get what he wants and even serve them if it means more power in the end and doesn’t care what others, even other dragons think of him. He can feign emotion so convincingly because he can force himself to actually feel those emotions while still maintaining a clear idea of his goals. He wasn’t always like this, for much of his life he was like any other blue dragon but when he was swallowed by a mana vortex shortly after reaching adulthood, the power granted him a glimpse of the worlds beyond Diversum and when he came out, he was like he is now.
The name is for you, so I would know who form belongs to!
