All credit for the beginnings of this plot go to Morpheaus, Original RP here.
Profiles/OOC thread is here!
Do you remember the legends of old Gods? Many of us have heard the stories, the myths, and the legends. But today they're treated as the old superstitions of fearful and primitive people seeking to explain that which they could not understand.
I tell you this now the gods existed. For over a million years the ruled our universe in peace after purging the evil of the titans. It was towards the waning years of this Empire of the Gods that a great evil crept into our world. Many of the gods were caught off guard by this evil; their minds were enslaved, corrupted, or worse many of them choose to side with this great evil. A great battle was waged in the heavens and the universe was set aflame. Lords Zeus, Odin, Thor, Ra, Osiris, Amaterasu, Vishnu, and many others did battle to save the universe. In the end the battle left both sides weakened. With the last of their powers the forces of good sealed the great evil and themselves away for all eternity. For nearly five thousand years the gods have faded into myth.
Until today...Now in the year 2013 something unforeseen has occurred, the great seal has been disrupted and the dark gods threaten the universe once more. The spirits of the just gods have been cast across the universe by evil. The spirits take refuge wherever they can, sometimes in objects, and animals, but in some rare cases the spirits find refuge in reincarnation. Certain people have discovered these spirits and seeks to use their powers for their own goals, all the while evils grows more powerful. Now 7 young friends have been chosen as keepers of 7 spirits. They are charged with recovering the other spirits and defeating the dark gods. Armed only with the powers of the spirits and their bond with each other they set out to become heroes.

We'll start with 7 friends, but if more people want in as the RP goes on, we can work it in.
