Final Fantasy 13: Reign of the fal’Cie
Prolouge
Thirteen centuries ago, a fal'Cie, preternatural being formed by the crystal residing inside it, created a floating, utopian city in the atmosphere of a planet known as Pulse. The fal'Cie willed that the city be completely isolated from the crude and brutal wilderness below, and commissioned machines to be the guardians of the citizens. Barriers were subsequently set up all around the city, and as such was the metropolis granted its befitting name: Cocoon.
Having lived secluded from the outside world for many years, the citizens of Cocoon are now becoming anxious of what Pulse really holds. Recent contact with those from the world below has caused people to question one another and their ways of life. To keep things in check, the Holy Government ‘gets rid of’ those who question Cocoon’s way of life and have become ‘polluted’ with the world below, Pulse.
Now
Although world is full of fal’Cie, around thousands, there are two that counter each others actions. The fal’Cie of Cocoon see’s the below world as hazardous to it’s people and have chosen a select few from it’s world to become l'Cie. Cocoon’s I’Cie have been given the Focus to find the fal’Cie in Pulse(In Kouken) and liberate it of it’s crystal, so that it can’t create I’Cie of it’s own and cease to exist.
The fal’Cie of Kouken(Which is a city on Pulse) has come to dislike the technology and lazy way of life that the fal’Cie of Cocoon has created. It wishes to get rid of Cocoon by destroying its fal”Cie and therefore causing Cocoon to fall from the sky. It has chosen its own I’Cie to do the Focus of bringing down Cocoon.
The Holy Government sees all I’Cie as threats to the Human race. They seek to destroy all I’Cie from Pulse and Cocoon. They believe that all I’Cie have too much power and could possibly take over and become corrupted with the power of the gods.
Each fal’Cie have mark their I’Cie with a tattoo somewhere on his/her body. It gives them the power to summon a special Eidolon. Eidolons are the powers of the crystals given living form. They take the forms of beast to help a I’Cie do their Focus. Eidolons can take other forms too.
Plot
There are three sides to the plot of the story. I’Cie have to carry out the Focus of their respective fal’Cie or risk becoming Cie Corpse. I’Cie of Cocoon needs to locate and destroy the fal’Cie of Kouken and the I’Cie of Kouken needs to find and locate the fal’Cie of Cocoon as well as find a way to get to the floating city from Pulse. The Holy Government have to ‘get rid of’ anyone that has been influenced by Pulse as well as locate and destroy any I’Cie that they come in contact with.

RP Facts:
Infected – the term given to those who have become influenced by the world below, Pulse.
Cie Corpse - crystallized monsters formed when a l'Cie fails in his or her Focus. Said to be worse than death. The l'Cie loses all the humanity within them and crystals cover and twist their body. This fate is also the reason why becoming an l'Cie is considered a curse. The Cie Corpses have no emotions, intelligence or goals, they just live trapped inside their crystallized bodies. They have long claws instead of hands, but they retain the facial features of their past selves. A pulsating red light in their chest keeps them alive. If the light is destroyed it will kill the person inside.
Focus – a mission given by the divine fal’Cie. Failure in completing a Focus ends in becoming a Cie Corpse.
Monsters/Rogue Machines/ Soldiers – There are many threat within both worlds. Pulse is full of creatures. Some are peaceful but others will attack humans upon sight. Cocoon is full of Rogue Machines that have malfunctions. These machines will attack anyone that is around them. Cocoon also has Soldiers of the Holy Government which will attack anyone within restricted areas or if they recognize an I’Cie. (Here is a list of monsters & a list of machines at the bottom of the link)
Towns:
Cocoon is split into 4 Sections
Section 1 – This section is the housing district of Cocoon. Humans live in this area. It is the 2nd largest section.
Section 2 – This section is the heart of Cocoon. It has shops, schools, trains, buildings, and other things a regular city would have in it. It is the largest section.
Section 3 – This section belongs to the Holy Government. Inside is the main building where they train soldiers and carry the Infected before they ‘get rid of’ them. It is the 3rd largest section.
Section 4 – It’s the smallest section. It is the only section with grass and trees and a lake. It is also the closest section to Pulse. If anyone gets too deep within this section they will come upon a Restricted section which leads to Pulse. It is heavily guarded by soldiers to prevent that from happening. Anyone in that section will become Infected.
Pulse is home to many towns and villages and other places
Royal City of Kouken – The largest city in Pulse. Many people live here. It has many buildings. It is the most advanced city in Pulse although not as advanced as Cocoon. The tallest building is known as Kouken Tower and is home to the Mayor of Kouken. It is guarded by Kouken soldiers.
City of Altor – 2nd largest city in Pulse.
City of Clairon - A city full of nothing but shoping places. Good spot to get potions, weapons, etc. No one lives here. Only a work city.
Clairon Woods – Located to the south of Altor. It is full of monsters.
City of the Lost – Was once the main city on Pulse and as big as Kouken but has become deserted and over run by Cie Corpse.
Wastelands - The traveling space between cities and villages. Populated with monsters.
Mosca Village – A small village full of farmers and herders.
Paloom – A small town near the Swamps. It rains constantly here. The people here hate outsiders and will be mean to anyone that is one.
Swamps of Pulse – An large area surrounded by swamps. Very dangerous.
Lightning Alley – A place where the sky is constantly filled up with lightning that strikes to the ground. It full of electric monsters and leads to the Crysalline Lake
Crystalline Lake – A lake that is made of nothing but crystalline matter. It resides directly below Cocoon.
Rules:
1.The main rule….have fun with it.
