| Final Fantasy Type-0 |

​

The land of Oriense is divided into four nations known as the Suzaku Fiefdom of Rubrum, the Milites Empire, the Lorican Alliance, and the Kingdom of Concordia. Each nation is home to a crystal that grants them unique powers: Rubrum controls the Suzaku Crystal containing the power of Magic, Milites controls the Byakko Crystal containing the power of Weapons, Lorica controls the Genbu Crystal containing the power of the Shield, and Concordia controls the Sōryū Crystal containing the power of the Dragon.

The four nations coexisted peacefully under the Pax Codex until Cid Aulstyne, High Commander of the Milites Empire, broke the peace treaty and staged an invasion using advanced military technology developed with the power of the Byakko Crystal. With his armada of airships and magitek armor, Cid easily defeated both Lorica and Concordia.

With two nations being subdued, Cid now turns to Rubrum. All that stands in his way is Rubrum's Magic Academy, Peristylium Suzaku. If the students can fend off Cid’s first attack on Suzaku, they might be able to fight back. His army has already shown itself to defeat two armies at once, while it may look grim, their only option is to fight.

Rubrum​

​

The Suzaku Crystal offers magical power to all those born in Rubrum, but unlike other nations’ crystals, its power wanes on every citizen as they age. As a result, everyone 20 or older has very little magical ability. Rubrum’s only academic institution is the Rubrum Peristylium Suzaku which also doubles as a military base. Upon completion of their studies, students may be allowed to enter military training to progress into becoming a soldier to protect their country. Those who enter the Academy are split into twelve different classes.

A thirteenth class known as Class Zero exists and was created by a woman called Arecia Al-Rashia. Class Zero is made up of twelve students who were taken in as young children. Since they had been training at a younger age than those in the other twelve classes, Class Zero is made up of the most powerful group of students.

Class Zero: A group of 14 extremely talented students who have been hand picked to be part of this Class. No OCs will be allowed here. I will allow characters from this Class to be taken though. The mantle in their uniform is red.
Class One: Students from this Class represent the Knight Class found in other Final Fantasy games. The mantle in their uniform is light blue.
Class Two: These students have the characteristics of the Dragoon Class. Those from this class are the most likely to proceed to becoming officers as this is a highly militarized class. The mantle in their uniform is indigo.
Class Three: These have the characteristics of the Red Mage Class. The mantle in their uniform is purple.
Class Four: These are represented by the Geomancer Class. The mantle in their uniform is orange.

Class Zero Students

Spoiler

No.01 Ace [Taken by me]
Trust
At first glance, he seems cool but also has a reckless side. He is someone who accepts the feelings of others, and is able to shed tears for the dying in Oriense, which casts away its dead. He has a habit of singing a song, sung to him by Arecia, to himself occasionally. Ace’s closest friend is Machina’s older brother, Izana, despite only knowing him for a short amount of time. He spends his free time sparring with Izana to help boost Izana’s combat abilities because his older age prevents him from gaining as much power from Rubrum’s crystal. Because of Ace‘s friendship with Izana, it seems obvious that he and Machina will be able to get along very well.

Weapon - A bow. He carries no quiver because he summons the arrows magically. The arrows themselves are not made of pure magical energy however.
Skills:
Arrow Shower - Shoots into the sky before a volley of arrows come raining down on enemies.
Grand Train - By aiming into the ground, Trey summons a large circular magic sigil that drains enemies’ health when he fires his arrow. The attack takes awhile to set up but the damage is devastation.

Innocence

No.7 Seven
Understanding
Although silent with a seemingly cold impression, in truth Seven is very caring of other people and is thus popular with the female underclassmen. Because she is trusted to do things reliably, they often come to her with their requests and she has a hard time saying no to them. She is the only member of Class Zero without a mantle. And no, she is not “silver-haired Lightning”.

Skills:
Backfist - A backhand attack that stuns the enemy.
Exploding Fist - Punches the enemy to unleash a powerful explosion.

Fire - A fire-based attack spell that can burn an enemy to a crisp.

No.09 Nine [Taken by Boy Wonder]
Action
He is impulsive and straightforward, viewing the world in black and white and only feels satisfied when things aren't complicated. Although he has a foul mouth, isn't exactly wise and is considered stupid by fellow classmate Queen, his courage boosts Class Zero's morale on the battlefield.
Weapon: Lance. Nine is one of the strongest, physically, of Class Zero. His skill in magic however leaves much to be desired.
Skills:
High Jump - Jumps high into the sky before crashing down on enemies below for large damage.

No.11 Jack
Ignorance
Rarely seen without a smile, he’s the class clown of Class Zero. Whatever situation he comes across, he gets through it with a positive attitude, often using the occasional joke or words of encouragement to lighten the mood.
Weapon: Katana. Jack moves slowly with his blade drawn and rarely attacks an enemy more than one time. He relies on precise attacks to finish his enemies quickly.
Skills:
Deliver - An extremely fast attack that will instantly kill weakened enemies.
Flash Breakthrough - A slash that will damage and lower the defenses of an enemy.

Fire Bomb - A short ranged but powerful spell that causes an explosion around the caster to kill surrounding enemies.

No.12 Queen
Intelligence
As her name implies, she has a dignified position among her comrades due to her intelligence and strong sense of justice. She holds the position of a class leader in Class Zero and is often seen immersing herself in books.
She has a practical, realistic and logical personality and is known for saying cruel things to her classmates. But in actuality, Queen does so in favor of her classmates; being one of the older students in the class, she constantly looks out for her classmates and cares deeply for them as a sister figure to the class.
Weapon: Longsword. Despite having such a physically based weapon, Queen is far from being the strongest in Class Zero but makes up with it for the speed at which she is able to use her sword.

No.13 King [Taken by Boy Wonder]
Resolve
Although he appears cold, he is actually a person with a kind heart. Apparently he trains everyday. He possesses a serious demeanor and strong common sense. King is able to make quick decisions on the battlefield unlike Queen.
Weapon: Dual Guns. Regular pistols for the most part. They each hold twelve shots each before needing to be reloaded. Ammunition is of course magically summoned by King, just like the guns themselves.
Skills:
Powered Bullet - Infuses the next shot with magical energy. Explodes on contact.

He is brave and very powerful; traits which had him transferred into Class Zero. Due to being a recent addition to the ranks of Class Zero, he isn't assigned any number. Despite great proficiency in magic and his straightforwardness, he is fearful of war. Machina is childhood friends with Rem and is extremely protective of her. The two do have romantic feelings for each other but due to the current circumstances, they have never openly expressed them. He and Rem have not yet been transferred to Class Zero by the start of the RP. He is formerly a member of Class Two.

Rem Tokimiya [Taken by Rem]
Love
She is moral, kind, and honest, and has an outstanding hidden talent for magic. Due to being a recent addition to the ranks of Class Zero, she isn't assigned any number.
She is considered to be a mature and rational person. Serving as a pillar of support and a calming factor for Machina, Rem tries her very best to be cheerful, encouraging, and levelheaded, even through tough times. She is shown to be an emotionally resilient, loyal, and considerate person. Rem is especially sensitive of her friend's feelings, and goes as far as to hide her own pain so that she isn't a burden to her classmates.
She cares deeply for Machina, and is constantly concerned and looking out for him. As childhood friends, they work well together and understand each other better than anyone else. The two do have romantic feelings for each other but due to the current circumstances, they have never openly expressed them.

Milites​

​

Its Emperor has currently gone missing and Cid Aulstyne now handles the affairs of the government .

The energy from the Byakko Crystal is used for military and domestic affairs. Different from the crystals of other countries, whose power can be wielded only by a select few (like the students in Suzaku), the power of the Byakko Crystal is used to create weapons and “Magitek Armor” mecha, which can be used by all citizens. This has allowed the army to develop into a force of many tens of thousands.

The Milites government sparked a war between the nations when it invaded the other countries to obtain the power of their crystals.

Lorica​

​

Lorica controls the Genbu Crystal, which contains the power of the Shield.

The people of Lorica directly take in the power of the crystal to strengthen their bodies, making them bigger than the people of other countries. Nearly all citizens serve as knights for the country.

Concordia​

​

The Concordian people use the crystal to communicate with dragons and monsters, and use them for daily life and to strengthen their military. Top posts in the Concordia government, save for the Concordian King, are held by women.

Rules

1. No Godmodding or Power-Playing. Of course, I can break this rule if I need to for plot purposes and such.
2. If you want a character who isn’t a student in the Suzaku Academy, then send me a message.
3. While l’Cie are in this RP, I’m not allowing anyone to be one at this period in time.
4. Summons won’t be used unless you want to kill your character off. Summons=Death.
5. All students of the Academy can summon their weapons “Kingdom Hearts style”, as in, they never need to carry the weapons outside of battle. If you’re feeling uncreative, just give your character a generic sword.
6. You can only choose spells that I have listed for you all to use. It’s a small list, I know, but that’s how it’s going to be.
7. I’ll let you all decide what to name your character’s extra abilities and decide what they do. Try not to copy off of another’s existing ability and don’t overpower your character. Holy, Ultima, Meteor and all versions of Flare are off limits.
8. Oh yeah, keep it PG-13 around here.
9. Stay involved in the RP!
10. If you take an existing character, don’t change who they are! Obviously, it’ll be much easier just to make your own character.
11. Don’t turn an existing Final Fantasy character from another game into a character for this RP. So no Buster Swords. Or Gunblades. B|
12. I reserve the right to add in more rules as I see fit.

The Crystals gave the four nations incredible power. The Suzaku Crystal gave magic, the Byakko Crystal powered weapons, Genbu's Crystal gave its people incredible strength, and the Sōryū Crystal gave the ability for its people to speak to and control dragons. While one might believe that this was all they did and that all their power was beneficial to the humans, there remained two more "gifts" of the Crystals.​

​

In what was intended to be an act of mercy, those who die are forgotten. Memories of the dead fade away immediately. All that was left was a name and very rarely anything more than that. ​

​

Finally, there were the l'Cie. They were humans chosen to act in the will of the Crystal that had given them power. l'Cie were far more than human, whenever they clashed they would leave entire cities decimated and they were nearly invincible. The l'Cie were immortal and as such, they became less and less human as years passed. As they outlived their friends and family, all their memories would fade away until they were empty vessels used as tools for the Crystals' will. Very rarely are there more than one l'Cie per crystal--with such immense power, it was obvious why this was the case. It is unclear why and how one is chosen but those who are can never break free from their bond unless death claims them... ​

The Suzaku Flag Falls​

​

​

If he had been at the Academy, the alarms set off would not have come soon enough. The students were still in class. Those who had graduated to become soldiers, and those who had joined the military like himself, were already in the front lines. ...To him it was his home but now it had become a bloody battlefield. Buildings collapsed as airships fired missiles down below, mercilessly killing anyone who had been unlucky enough to not get out in time. The Byakko troops held nothing back.​

He jumped on his Chocobo, Chichiri, to get closer in on the action. Kunagiri was not going to let the Byakko troops take Suzaku. Not today, not ever. As he passed by a group of Suzaku troops, he noticed one of them summoning a War God. The one who summoned it died in the process and fell over from giving all his life force to summon the powerful beast Bahamut. The dragon took to the skies as it immediately blasted an airship out of the sky with magical attacks.​

​

Byakko soldiers blocked his path forward. With a swift kick from his Chocobo, one was killed before he could open fire. Kunagiri jumped off, taking the fallen rifle before impaling the other soldier with the bayonet attached to the rifle. The third and final soldier got in a shot. It grazed his shoulder but before Kunagiri could be killed, he fired back with the stolen rifle. "Come on, Chichiri-" More soldiers came. Kunagiri unleashed the only he knew, sending a blast of fire right at them. It killed on soldier but as they opened fire...​

​

Chichiri took the shots. The Chocobo fell down at his feet. "NO!" He fired back at the Byakko troops but missed most of his shots. They continued to fire at him until he too fell down. Kunagiri stared at his Chocobo, pressing a hand on its wounds. "We won't die here, buddy...We can get out of here..." He began to cast Cure, the warm white glow poured over the wound of his Chocobo but to no avail. The glow faded. Kunagiri had no strength left. Desperate, he called on the only friend he knew that could help.​

​

"ACE!" No response. The soldiers grew closer, intending to finish the job they had started. "DAMN IT ACE! WHERE ARE YOU!? ACE!" The Byakko rifles were now aimed at him again. ​

​

Blood splattered across the ground but it was not his. Standing in front of him was a blond boy wearing the uniform of a Suzaku student with a red mantle billowing in the wind. Ace had finally answered his calls. The cards in Ace's hand vanished as he turned towards Kunagiri and knelt beside him and his Chocobo. Ace reached out towards him in an attempt to heal him but Kunagiri held out his hand to stop him. "No...I'm..." He coughed out blood. "Beyond your help..." His vision began to fade. "Machina...Rem...I'm sorry." ​

​

"Izana..."​

​

When his name was called, he looked Ace in the eyes. "I don't want to die...My brother...he'll forget me..." Tears now stained his cheeks as he stared at Ace who was unable to do more than stay with him until he passed. He had barely made a difference in the battle. No sooner had he entered he had been gunned down. Izana cursed himself for his weakness. He was 21. His powers were vastly weaker than anyone's in the Academy. He had even failed the entrance exams when he was younger. And when Ace offered to train him to become stronger, the only thing that came out of it was his friendship. Ace was the one who had convinced the officers to allow Izana onto the battlefield and even now that he was dying, he was glad he had the chance to help. Even if it meant...​

​

​

"I'm sorry." Ace closed the eyes of his fallen comrade. As soon as Izana passed, all his memories of him were erased. All he knew was the name of the dead body before him...and that he was a good friend. Ace looked away from the body as he summoned his cards once more. Sice and Nine were now with him. The other members of Class Zero fighting elsewhere. "We still have to fight the Byakko." As he spoke, sounds of gunfire grew closer. The students of other classes were starting to join the battle. Notably, those of Class Seven were healing the wounded while the others fought. "Let's move."​

​

​

​

​

​

Machina Kunagiri. Class Two.​

​

​

"Machina. It's time to go."​

​

Machina turned towards Rem as she called for his attention, her bright pink mantle easily visible out of the corner of his eye. He glanced back at the cemetery one more time before heading out, his own indigo mantle flowing behind him. The alarm had just sounded though it was too late. Many students rushed out to the courtyard only to be gunned down as they arrived. They were here. Right at the doors of the Suzaku Academy. The attack was so sudden that they had no time to prepare. Angered, Machina summoned his rapiers as he charged ahead of Rem. He would die before they could hurt her. "Stay behind me!" He shouted towards her over the gunfire. Machina rushed past the fountain at the center of courtyard as his blades quickly pierced the soldiers who stood in his way. This was his home, he could not--would not let it fall into the hands of the Milites Empire.​

 

"Class Zero?" The bodiless voice of Nil came to their minds through a magical COMM link. Though he was not authorized to assist those outside of his Class, he had no choice but to step in and take action. This was war. Members of his Class weren't suited for frontline action but he could still help out. "You kids are elite soldiers, right?" Of all the Classes, Class Zero was the most separated from the rest of the Academy. They were a special bunch that only recently had been "shown off" to the rest of the students. As in, their existence was not secret anymore.

"I'll explain later on how I'm communicating to you--Mog didn't make it easy--but right now I need some of you to fall back and head to the Academy! The Byakko have a weapon that can-"


"Hey! Wait!" Ace looked off towards his comrades who were still engaging the enemy. He threw several cards at the remaining soldiers to finish them off before running over towards Nine and Sice. "Did you both hear that?" He didn't know who it was, but it had to have been one of their own allies. Sounds of machinery and even more marching came closer. Byakko soldiers were gathered around what looked like an armored vehicle of some kind. A large claw-like device suddenly popped out from the top. ...Nothing seemed to happen.

Ace drew three red cards as he prepared to fight back. In the distance he noticed something terribly wrong however. Magical Walls that had been placed to defend the Suzaku soldiers suddenly shattered. The summoned Bahamuts plummeted from the sky as they were easily gunned down when their bodies should have resisted the shots. Students from other Classes suddenly found themselves unable to cast spells and even their weapons vanished instantly. It all became clear to him what the Byakko had done.

"That thing...it's jamming the Suzaku Crystal's power!" All those outside of the Academy were powerless except for Class Zero. Their power did not come from the Crystal.


'Nine, ten, eleven...' Each soldier Machina dropped was seemingly replaced by two more. Between his spells and abilities, he was able to make short work of every one that came into his line of sight and those that weren't were cut down by Rem. No matter how fast he moved she was able to stay by his side and keep him from getting surrounded. It disturbed him to know that they made such a deadly team together but even so he was glad to have Rem beside him. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a Byakko group advance forward as a strangely dressed soldier cleared a path for them by easily slaughtering any Suzaku students who came in their way. Just behind the group was an armored vehicle heading towards the training grounds.

"Why would they..." There was no time to question why. Whatever it was, it couldn't be good. The regular Byakko soldiers posed little threat to Machina and Rem but the one leading the assault was of a much higher caliber. "Come on, Rem." He called out towards her, chasing after the Byakko group as he avoided gunfire.
