[TV]TROPES
The Elemental [P]halla


"When I was, A young boy,
My father, Took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son, when you grow up,
Would you be, The saviour of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
He said, "Will you, defeat them,
your demons, and all the non believers,
the plans that they have made?
Because one day, I'll leave you,
a phantom, to lead you in the summer,
to join the black parade."

########################################################################

Welcome to a World.*But not just any world, oh no.
Another*(Somewhat different)*world.*Having very little to do with events of*"This"*one.*(Mostly...)
(Please note that other*Alternate Universe*versions of this world do not count against that world cap,
for reasons too complex to explain in full detail here)

This is one world filled with both*Glory*and*Dooms*days.
It is against this backdrop that*Good Is Gar, and*Evil is sexy. … In a classic, riveting re-enactment of the*Rule of Cool,
these forces of Gar and sexy are locked into a fierce*battle*royal*with cheese*over*the fate of the world.
This is a story where*Overcoming the Monster*cannot be done without first completing*The Quest.
But even then it may all still all end in*tragedy. But maybe, just maybe there will be a*Rebirth*instead.
*
Be sure to tune in, same TV Time, same TV Channel.
I can guarantee you but one thing,*Tonight, someone dies.

########################################################################



In a hidden chamber 7 guardians watched a recording of their dying leader's final moments.


The Guardian of Light was greatly wounded. His attacker had caught him off guard.
From the Scythe wound He knew his time was short. His attacker Hissed, "where is it? where is the seal?"
Ignoring her taunts he replied "He will avenge my death you know, he will call on the full force of the nations to destroy you."
She did not reply. The guardian continued. "The seal you want is somewhere safe, somewhere...."*
He coughed blood. "...You will not find it."*His attacker drew her scythe into his heart.*
"You always were a fool" replied his killer.*

As the Guardian of Light drew his last breath his cursed his cloaked attackers.*
"May the light shine into your darkness, May the truth be revealed."
And with that his attacker fled victorious into the night.

The recording played on but there was nothing else...

"Should we call the Quorum back into*Counsel?
"We do not have much choice, There will be questions."
"Did she manage to retrieve the seal? …. She did not."
"It would seem that Cataclysm has begun to stir"
"The elemental summoners will be called to do battle.
"What should we tell them?"
"In time we will tell them the truth. Let them make their own choice."
"They will come to attempt to take their place as Cataclysm's Grand Summoner.
"Yes, But this is what they where trained for.
"To be the ones to summon*and face Cataclysm."

########################################################################

4 Kingdoms and an Academy...
There are 4 nations in this game that have gathered to the call of the*Quorum, which of this nations is good or evil is not simply clear cut. It will take greater insight to know who to trust and who cannot be trusted.

The nations are.....

New United Arcadia Kingdoms
If the gods themselves may die,*what does that say for you and*I?
The United Arcadia Kingdoms are in fact several nations of smaller Kingdoms which have united under one banner.*
Because of this they have vast amounts of military power under their control. Those from United Arcadia who have come to join the*Quorum*are ether*
great military leaders, special force combat units or simply great minds. For the most part United Arcadia Kingdoms control the Armed forces protecting the*Quorum
and delegates from the greater threat that is upon the them.


The Kingdom of*Phalla
Guu~
Once apon a time the Kingdom of*Phalla*was a tranquil, peaceful kingdom, populated mostly by ordinary high school students, and ruled by the benevolent King*Phalla.
The women were beautiful, with gigantic breasts, and the men were beautiful, with small breasts.*Home of absurdly powerful student councils and many a Magnificent Bastard.*
40 years ago an evil*chess master*managed to rise to power and lead the kingdom of Phalla down a different path. Since then many things have changed.


The Spiral Federation
Who*the hell do you think we are!?
The 3rd Nation within the ranks of the*Quorum*is*the Spiral federation. Gifted with a strange and*ancient*technology these guys seem to have even*
stranger behaviours when it comes to*Quorum*politics. Choosing not to discuss their methods simply instead doing what needs to be done they have gained*
a reputation of being one step ahead of the flock when it comes to being informed. In times of*peace they choose to improve their technology.*
Because of this they have some of the biggest airships and Mecha within this known phalla world. Even with the firepower they control the spiral federation*
are not commonly known to try and assassinate people.


The Eastern Vestigial Empire
It’s good to be the king.
What’s big bad like a the Lone Wolf but instead of blowing down your house down they just*nuke it from orbit. (Just to be sure).*
The largest empire in the world the Vestigial Empire that’s for sure! The Vestigial Empire is the sort of nation which while not necessarily evil is*certainly*is very paranoid.*
Because of this they choose to themselves from the other nations and it was a surprise to the*Quorum*when they choose to offer support for the current world crisis. The Eastern Vestigial Empire is controlled by several large corporations and have been known to work on some of the more forbidden technology which the other nations wouldn't won't touch.

The Academy is.....

The Elemental Academy
To Protect the elements,*To seal away fate..
The central gathering point of this story is the Elemental Academy which is also the location that the*Quorum*has gathered. While strictly not TV Troops the roles of the academy is the central theme for the event which are about unfold. The Academy is the where the summoners first learnt their ability's and where the guardians who watch over the summoners are stationed.

The Summoners
Those who seek to claim the Position of Grand Summoner.
There are several summoners in this game. Each controls a different elemental type....
The*Summoners*of the elements are more powerful than normal villagers.*
Killing one is not such a simple task, But nor is protecting one ether.
Elements: Fire - Ice - Lighting - Earth - Water - Wind - Light - Steel - ???? - ????
