I am pleased to also announce today another Otherborn game, similar to the one I did a long time ago. There are differences this time:
1. There are no separate stories in main campaign, just one main. Arcade mode though does have separate stories.
2. Unlike the last one which was Street Fighter inspired, this is more Soul Calibur esque.
Also, a treat, I am letting all you guys write the ending stories for all the characters in Arcade mode. As well as their rival fights. Just make sure you check the bios below for reference. If there's a character you want in who is not then submit the character with a bio and wait to be accepted.
I am sure you're wondering...why a new bio? What's going? Without further ado, let me show you....the main campaign.
Main Campaign
Story: It was the day everything went wrong... no one will forget it, it's the day where the Scarves and the Blades were wiped out within seconds. Only a select few of each side survived, the effect of the event spread over Urbadelphia and became what is known as: Reckoning.
That was years ago. Now the Network isn't as influential as it used to be, the CIA has seized most of the power using the Network as tools to their whims. Only selecting a few of them to work with them while expelling the rest to normal lives. The CIA has managed to create peace and lessened break outs of demons, however this peace may not last...there is a whisper in the shadows of a plan, to strike at this world in it's most harmonious moment. The Scarves, the Blades, the CIA and strange incidents involving comatose men and women are connected.
Only one may be able to stop it.

He aims to grow stronger to find Midori, who left the family the day Aqua was to be married to Shizuo. He is close friends with the Sakuraba family and close to the demon cat Kiara, he still talks to Shiki Misaki as well.
Appearance:
Midori
Age 19
Powers: Midori has fully accepted the darkness, allowing him to be as strong as Riku Nomura was in his prime.
Summary: Sini's brother and rival, Midori left the family when his mother wanted to marry Shizuo. Feeling it as a disgrace to his late father he left the family to become a warrior, having used his demon side to be stronger. After many years of leaving he finally returns home, but, are his intentions sincere?
Appearance:
Returning Characters
Aqua Heiwajima
Age: 37
Powers: The same as before
Summary: The mother of Sini and Dori and wife to Shizuo Heiwajima. Trying to keep what's left of her family together, which is barely holding on with Dori gone and Shizuo resuming his pursuit of Izaya. With the Network now owned by the CIA, she is in retirement to avoid being drafted. But staying away from battle may not be possible...
Shizuo Heiwajima
Age: 34
Powers: Same as before
Summary: Husband to Aqua and step father to her two sons Shizuo had a hard time adjusting to fatherhood, even now he finds himself wandering the pavement for hours and hours. One day he announced he has to finish his mission to kill Izaya Orihara, if he doesn't he can't live with himself. So now he sets off to do so.
Shiki Misaki
Age: 21
Powers: Fire manipulation has advanced and became stronger, she also carries Sora Shimomura's sword and chain.
Summary: Shiki has managed to brave through many things...but one thing she could not was the disappearance of Sora Shimomura, the man she loved. He vanished the day the Scarves and Blades died off, some even say he is dead. She doesn't think so, she never will either. Now with the Network being used by the CIA she and Neku make sure they don't get their race killed, which is difficult as well since she must look after her five year old daughter: Raimyu Misaki.
Neku Sakuraba
Age: 21
Powers: Telekinesis has advanced to pick up multiple objects and throw things and people.
Summary: The leader of the Network is brought to his knees, the CIA succeeded in controlling them. Now his only job his to make sure his kind is not sent to their deaths from the CIA missions, this job has put his plans to marry Namine Lebeau on hold.
Riku Nomura
Age: 23
Powers: His dark powers have morphed to allow him to transform into a Ghost Rider like figure: which he calls the Night Rider.
Summary: When Sora Shimomura vanished his rage transformed his darkness into something else, powers similar to that of his former friend. Out of memory, he became the Night Rider. Patrolling the world for five years he tried to pick up his friend's job, difficulties have arose and he finds himself questioning his strength. Believing in his heart that he couldn't be the Rider Sora was, now he involves himself in discovering this dark scheme and stopping whoever is behind it.
Sora Shimomura?
Age: Strangely still 17
Powers: The Ghost Rider abilities remain, but warped...
Summary: Vanished under mysterious circumstances Sora seems to have returned...but...is it really him?
Izaya Orihara
Age: Unknown
Powers: A demon with the abilities to control shadows and anyone who uses it.
Summary: Izaya was given free reign with Sora Shimomura not there to keep him in check. Now his invisible hand is in every pocket of the city, every nook and crevice. Yet he is silent, if he has a plan he's waiting...watching...but that time is coming, his plan is coming to motion.
Kiara
Age: Unconfirmed, but her Anthro form is physically around 19.
Powers: As a demon she can morph into her animal form to attack, but in Anthro form she uses cat claw weapons.
Summary: Kiara has been around for a long time, she knew the Network when it was free and Sini and Dori when they were young boys. She still goes about her carefree ways but now with more caution, the world is much more dangerous than ever before. She is very close to Sininen Heiwajima.
Namine Lebeau
Age 23
Powers: Power enhancing has expanded to the point where she can enhance any Otherborn regardless of their blood line, however this enhancement is now restricted to Otherborn: Halfers and Demons cannot be enhanced.
Summary: In five short years Namine became far more influential than her parents ever could dream to be. In fact, it was now her powerful influence that kept Neku and Shiki in the Network in order to keep their kind safe. Next to Izaya Orihara, she has become the most influential person in Urbadelphia.
She has matured to be a stronger woman, this was proven when she managed to find "Angel" and invoke a sealing charm on him, making him an obedient bodyguard. Her fiance Neku has doubts of how long this will last, but she is confident it'll last long enough.
((to sum that last part, in battle she and Angel are a double team. Like PKMN Trainer from Smash Bros, she commands, he attacks for her.))
(More to come)
