The goddesses: Alexus, Nayru, Kallisto, and Layla. Every child in the world knows these names. Some consider them fairy tales, but most believe they created the world and everything in it. Those people are ignorant, but the fault lies not with them. The goddesses are real and hold great power, but their power is not the source of life. No, their power is suited for nothing but betrayal. They slumber now, but that will only last for so long. They must be stopped at all costs. All I have left is the power of destruction. A power I will gleefully use to execute those traitorous wretches.
plot
The four goddesses have been reincarnated inside mortal bodies. Due to luck or fate, they have been drawn together. However, they have yet to awaken to who they really are. Because of this, they are defenseless against those that would cause them harm. But all is not lost, the young Kallisto remembers herself and quickly moves to defend her beloved sisters. But alone she does not possess the power to save them. She recruits the help of young girls with great potential, granting them magical powers. These girls are tasked with protecting the goddesses until they awaken. As well they must attempt to spur the goddesses minds to remember who they are.
setting
The world's a bit of a mess. For a lot of people it's basically a utopia, but for the rest it really sucks. The important place right now is the country Kayo, which is led by a bunch of traditionalists who don't like change. The head lady, Estole Syv, is actually pretty interested in change but she's gotta fight against all the old ladies who don't so not much gets done. But that's not all that helpful-like, more importantly there's the Opium Institute, the school that the goddesses are at. And also the school where Kalli grabs girls to help her, in case that wasn't obvious. It's a rather new school, only been around for a few years, but it's already considered rather prestigious simply because of Mother Opium being a really important person. It's also got a bit of infamy about because of Mother Opium openly supporting men's rights and the cranky old ladies in the government being against that. Only cranky people really care about that though.
So yeah the goddesses are at this school and it's, like, camping week where everybody goes to a fancy park and stays in an air-conditioned cabin and then say they spent time in nature and that's where the main events of the story happen.
Also there's two other countries which might be relevant: Nayo and Layo. Nayo is like Kayo except not a theocracy also the men's rights movement there is really big and well-supported. Nayo is also right next to Kayo. Meanwhile Layo is like, on the bottom of the world and super mysterious and different from Nayo and Kayo. People don't usually travel between the two continents because plane tickets are expensive and Layo is weird.
lines
...Because of how important religion is to people in Kayo, all girls are required to declare which goddess they follow by the time they turn thirteen. This is their "Line of Belief." They are also considered practicing or nonpracticing depending on whether or not they actually follow their chosen religion and believe in the goddesses or not... There are four lines, one for each goddess.

rules
Keep calm. This RP is made to cause your character to suffer, often by events beyond your control, expect things to upset you and be prepared to rein in your emotions.
No godmodding, powerplaying, etc. These are general RP taboos and they shouldn’t be done here. I won’t be going over them here, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t still a problem.
No metagaming, do your best to separate your knowledge from your character's.
Keep Suism in check. Mary Sues aren’t truly a binary, off/on kind of deal. They are more fluid a concept. So please use your better discretion. I will let you know if you’re going too far in that direction.
If you take more than ten days to post when your turn comes you will be removed from the RP (exceptions can be made under extenuating circumstances, so long as I'm informed ahead of time and not after the fact). ...I never enforce these, do I? >_>
Have fun.
