(Fun fact!: That's me and my sister in the photo! We're by that cool tree on the edge of town! Sorry for the blurry-ness, I accidentally used the big-foot camera. I know, rookie mistake, but we'd been looking out for him and I got them muddled up. Sorry! >.<)
WELCOME INTERNET TRAVELER! You have found the super secret online headquarters of The Mystery Busters! Home of the weird and wonderful! Provider of FREE* magical powers and objects! Have you got a supernatural, sci-fi, fantasy or even imaginary, problem? We can solve it! And we will! Also we are always looking for new recruits so, as my stock broker cousin says, if you are interested then get inter-invested! (Notice: The name is still under consideration. Send any suggestions in and we'll take a look through them. Thanks!)
*Free magical powers may, technically, be free but sometimes might have hidden clauses and loopholes.

But after one week we reserve the right to give you loads of hassle about wanting a full refund on your free magical powers, potions, miniature deities, cursed objects, etc. This is to make the whole experience just a little bit more fun for us, customers aren't the only ones who should get to complain.

Hey-ooo! Welcome to my forum! I am the Grand Myster (Like Mystery crossed with Buster! Ha!) of this fine little community! You can call me William if you'd like, because William is my name! (Don't tell anyone though because names have power and I don't want my name falling into the wrong hands! >.<)
Now that you've been formally welcomed let's get down to business!
If you're here then that means that you, like myself, have noticed some odd happenings in this world. Some things that shouldn't happen. Things that most people don't believe in and would call crazy. But you know you aren't crazy. Just like me. I'm not crazy. Not at all. And don't let me tell you otherwise.
So, I'm here to tell you that it's all okay. You aren't crazy! You just have an open mind and a willingness to accept things as they truly are: weird as heck! It's the world that's crazy! Haha! Take that world! You crazy, round, insane, terrifying, HORRIBLE, BEAUTIFUL MOTHER EARTHER! It's all rown[sfahj!isas~##hbasdkp
Okay. That's enough from him for now. I have taken the keyboard. I am in control now. Things are about to get a little more sane around here. I mean like... Wow. Just look at that stuff he wrote. He's way over-excited for this. Like. Damn. Anyway, sorry. Hello. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Tess, William is my brother. For clarity's sake, on here I'm known as Grand Syster. Though given that it's just the two of us on here, maybe that was unnecessary. Anyway, allow me to explain a little about what we do here.
You see. We are a small organization dedicated to finding and studying the mysteries that are out there. Specifically we focus on the ones out in our home city. Tiny-Clamor. An odd name for a massive city. But it fit better back when the place was new. You see, judging by all appearances Tiny-Clamor is a city like any other. Just another big mess of noise and concrete that's been splashed onto the horizon. But when you take a closer look there's a lot of mystery to be discovered. Like the disappearances in Dark Town, nobody has any idea who or what is doing it. Or the Traveling Shop, an entire building that appears and disappears seemingly at random selling strange things. Or the Mystery Growth down on a tree at the park. That thing is gross.
Anyway. We find strange places and we explore them. We find creepy monsters and we fight them. We discover secrets, conspiracies, magical whatevers and floaty thingy-ma-bobs, and we abuse them for profit! We are going to put things on display! Make a real museum out of it! The museum of weird! We're going to show the world the inexplicable and the magical things they are ignoring, and we're going to squeeze every cent we can from them at the same time! By the time I'm done we may aswell be printing out own f*****g cash! HAHA! Ahem. It's going to be awesome.
Oh, and this forum will be used as a kind of mystery blog type thing. We can talk to each other. Post pictures we manage to snap. Schedule expeditions. Whatever you want really. It can also work as a kind of advertising for the museum! If you want to get involved, and help us get filthy stinking rich, then click the create account button. From there simply follow the instructions my brother set up. Have fun!

GrandSyster ~ Tess [Best sister I've had in years!]
Spoiler
This was taken when me and William went back in time! We visited some vampire hunters down south and stopped a bad guy. That was a fun day.
Username: Grand Syster Real Name: Tess. When my brother stupidly cursed himself by accident he made my last name go away too. I liked it too! It was a nice name. So for now I'm just Tess until someone can guess Williams last name. Gender: Female Age: Nineteen. About Me: Hi! I'm Tess. I came up the idea with this whole Mystery Buster scheme. Though William came up with the name. Basically we're just doing what we were doing anyway, but now I'm going to end up making lots of money from it! It's brilliant! Also we can make friends and help people or whatever. But the museum comes first! It's always been my dream to get lots of money. When I was a little girl I thought I was going to become an archaeologist and find diamonds the size of a house and things like that. Turns out the world doesn't work like that. Instead, it's full of monsters and stuff that secretly exist in the underbelly of society. Shocker. That's when I came up with the idea of making a museum, but for all the weird stuff out there instead of the old stuff! So I convinced William it would be fun. Easy. And now my project is underway! We're going to get so rich it'll be amazing. I'll be able to buy anything I want! Magical Stuff, Powers, Quirks, Items, etc.: William is teaching me stuff. He's been training me up for years, ever since he had to save me from a case of Shade-flesh... that he accidentally caused. Anyway, it turns out that it's hard to teach someone magic. Book learning helps, but you kind of have to experience stuff. The more weird stuff you are around, them more you face magic and overcome it, the more you learn how stuff works. Or your body does? It's like. You can read everything Merlin ever wrote, but your body or soul or whatever doesn't feel it. It doesn't understand. I guess it's like trying to move a new muscle. You can't do it, until you can. You know? It's weird. Anyway. Because of this, despite reading just about everything William owns, I'm not... you know... great, at magic. I can make myself look like a shadow though! A side-effect of the whole Shade-flesh incident. That's pretty useful! At night. When there's no lights. Anywhere. In a big city. Okay it kinda sucks.
Current members: [7] Grand Myster [Admin], Grand Syster [Admin],
Definitely interested. I will be making my character later today, but before that, I just wanted to know whether we get to choose our powers or do you just assign some to us?
You can definitely start with something if you want depending on your history and stuff. Like you could totally be an alien trying to blend in with society if you wanted. Obviously I'll say if it's too powerful or whatever. But mostly they'll be given at random based around things you've done.
The idea is that everyone, probably in the intro of the RP, gets a spell book. Depending on what you do and how you do it, you might acquire new abilities, spells, curses, etc. You'll fill out your spell-book with stuff. Things will happen. It'll be fun! :3

Thanks. I think I've got a vague idea of what I want now.
Oh boy, I don't fully grasp the concept here. Also making a character is hard!
How many characters can we have? Also, creating original usernames is annoying, xD
You can make as many characters as you want. Probably. I mean, if you get to like... Ten? Then that might be too many.
Also Usernames are stupid usually. Make a stupid name your character might make. Or make a really meaningful thing or something. Whatever you fancy. It's all good. :3
Stupidity is always an option.

Username: Lord Develin of Hellrealm
Real Name: Hadrian Jonas Develin
Gender: Male
Age: *13
About Me: Fie to cruel Fate! My lone venture into this human world had been stagnant for too long. How much more will I remain as a child? I should be grateful, for this appealing face and physique combined with my princely charisma is what evokes obedience from the women of this world. It is they, of course, who truly lead the hearts and minds of even the mightiest of my own gender. I am no fool, my decision is wise to sacrifice my ego for a body like this, for it holds power that my true form could not implement freely. For my own safety, I must remain as a boy, but a powerful warlock I still am. With the magic coursing through my noble blood, I shall conquer this human world, for the glory of Hellrealm! For the glory of my father, Magister-King Fyrrenian Isaiah Develin!
It is time for school, though. I have a test today, and there is going to be an assembly I believe. Carris, my personal assistant and guardian for my stay here in this world, has my lunch packed for the day, and I sincerely hope she supplied an extra pudding cup. Carris should have completed my Mystery Busters application as well. As a Noble, I must concern myself with the activities of peasants from time to time.
Magical Stuff, Powers, Quirks, Items, etc.:
*Anti-aging magic only capable nobles of Hellrealm know
Occasionally, Hadrian sheds his youthful form and doubles his age, becoming the Hellrealm Empire Noble he truly is:
As a boy and in his true form, Hadrian will always possess his variety of demonic spells. He specializes in destructive magic that harnesses demonic energy from the blood of Hellrealm Empire Nobles. However, he refrains from using his magic openly, as he is currently incognito within Tiny-Clamor.

About Me: Hey there, Mystery Busters. I'm Tim, your good old-fashioned unemployed, college dropout. Don't get me wrong, I'm far from being an idiot, its just that I have some issues when it comes to anything that needs attention, focus, and concentration. Anyway, a guy like me usually spends his days just hanging out and surfing the internet; though I'm not sure how I ended up on your forums. I've always been a fan of the occult and supernatural, but I never believed that they were true. Read a bunch of your posts and found the whole thing interesting; I doubt their credibility, but I guess there's no harm in trying. My life's kinda boring and this seems like an awesome way to spend my free time. Whatever it is you guys are offering, go ahead and sign me up.
Magical Stuff, Powers, Quirks, Items, etc.: I don't think I can really fill this portion up. If I had to pick something that I'd consider "magical" about myself, then it would be my uncanny ability to look good in every picture taken of me. For some reason, I'm extremely photogenic. Have you seen the one I submitted? That was taken during a massive riot I started back at my university's cafeteria. If that isn't magical enough, then I don't know what is. I guess that's where you guys step in, right? If you have any free powers or some strange artifact lying around, I'd be more than happy to take them. Don't worry, I'm not that picky; I know beggars can't be choosers.

Both accepted. :3
I'm not so sure about how much I'll limit magic of death and destruction at this point, but probably not much. I'll just give you tougher enemies or whatever. Level the playing field. That way lil' boy Lucius the devil child can have fun with magic.

I like his Pink Floyd t-shirt.
That always gets you bonus points from me. Accepted. :3
GrandMyster: So you're after some FREE* magic huh? Okay. We'll see what we've got in the back room. There's probably something cool back there. Ooo! Or something cursed! I'll go have a look!
*Always put the star after FREE** because that lets people know that you are a legit business man guy. That's what my sister said. So now I do it.
**I think I just found the problem with always putting a star after FREE*** whenever you offer something.
***The problem is that every single time you say FREE**** and put the star there. You have to have the star go somewhere.
****Like here.
GrandSyster: Stop. Please. Just stop.
Edited by Unbelievably Majestic, 21 August 2015 - 11:44 AM.
GrandMyster: I don't think we've got any of those. I could probably rustle you up a cursed teddy bear that'll hatch into an angry full-sized real bear and try to eat everything it sees? That's almost the same right?
GrandSyster: Stop trying to make angry, demonic teddy bears all the time. Nobody wants them.
GrandMyster: You don't know that!
GrandSyster: Just. Don't. It won't be good for anyone. Just make him a floating... I don't know... A floating bonzai tree or something.
GrandMyster: Anti-gravity tree fiend, huh? Maybe... Maybe.
GrandSyster: If I come through there and anything that shouldn't be alive and angry is alive and angry then you're going to regret it. Okay? It'll be like that time I caught you doing that kitten experiment.
GrandMyster: Aww crap. Sorry Shiro my old friend. I uhh... I don't want that to happen again. Ever. To anyone. Especially not to me. So I can't really make you that awesome teddy-bear we always talked about anymore.
Gunpowder Butterfly: Blueberry pie bomb will do the trick. Bears love blueberries almost as much as they love honey. As for tree fiends that can float, I'd recommend flaming arrows and heat-seeking missiles. Obviously one must be shot before the other if you want legitimate results.
As for Hadrian's magic, I don't intend of abusing things.
Edited by Shmuser Name, 21 August 2015 - 03:31 PM.
GrandMyster: W-What?! Why would I want to kill them?! Why would I go through all the effort of making a giant angry bear if I didn't want a giant angry bear walking around? Lady, you're crazy. You're a crazy lady. A Crazdy ladyzy.
GrandSyster: Uh... Stopping rampaging beast doesn't seem so crazy to me.
GrandMyster: That's because you just don't know how the world works little sis. Sometimes you just need to make a monster and watch what happens! Maybe it'll be friendly! Maybe it'll devour everything in sight! Sometimes you just gotta roll those dice!! You'll understand when you're older.
GrandSyster: Riiiight... I uhh.. I think I'm going to be keeping a closer eye on you from now on.

Through the vast entity that is the Internet, we now find ourselves in an unfamiliar place. A place of new faces, new personalities, and new adventurers alike. This place is the new home of our motley crew, and it is called Batoto. Here, as we meander through bustling streets and cobblestone draped markets, we find the first new person we will meet this day. Diabolical Rhapsody. What is so curious and is immediately the most noticeable thing about this shy soul is his height. Towering over eight feet high and sporting a two-handed mace that weighs more than some men, one would expect this scraggly bearded giant to be a savage barbarian. Yet those who dare try to scratch the surface a touch soon find a kind soul who so earnestly aims to please. Accompanying the vodka that he drinks and sings softly to is a pen quill made of the finest eagle's feather. His tools of imagination and creation, the studious giant fervently writes his passages for us all to see.

Grand Myster: Welcome to the newest Myster Buster, Lucifera! So, when you say you've been drifting around for years, you mean like, floating, right? That must suck! Getting carried to the next town by a gentle breeze and stuff. Not to worry though, I can probably fix this! If I get some Slobberjack ooze, half a pufferfish soul, whale blubber and a ball of rubber bands, I could probably whip up something that'll make you uhh... what word do people like nowadays? Big-boned! EXTREMELY big boned. Then the wind won't be able to blow you around! What do you think, interested?
