Name: Ellen Kaosu Lorn

Age-About 15 physically

Gender-Female

Physical Description-Ellen is tall, with long black hair and red eyes. She always wears a loose fitting black cloak, and has two katana-like swords on her belt.

Personality-Varies. Is technically the Personification od chaos, and to a lesser extent war and death. Even so, she hates killing innocents.

Background-Eldest daughter of the Lorn Blademaster family, Ellen killed her parents when they refused to make her heir, when they had raised her for it all her life. She became possessed by an ancient demon, Nemezure. Since then she has kileld, betrayed and murdered, but also freed, aided and rescued.

Interesting Facts-One of the highest up leaders of the Pokemon army, capable of changing into a Typhlosion, Gallade or combination of the two.

Name: Kainda

Age: Who cares? She doesn't remember. Her current body is 15.

Gender: Female

Physical Description: She's short, about 5' tall, but elevates that an inch with her shoes. She has long, white hair that goes all the way down her back, and that she only accents with a hairband. Her dress is in the gothic lolita style, and is therefore very heavy, but she's used to carrying it around. Basically, look at my icon. That's what she looks like.

Personality: She's positively wicked to those people she doesn't care about, and tends to not put her all into battles. She also doesn't take fights seriously, usually commenting on something else in the middle. She has a softer side, but that is usually associated with her insane arrogance. She's more comfortable when Akemi's around, and will open up more.

Background: She was originally summoned, first off. But she didn't acquire the psychical body required to walk around until the girl who summoned her killed herself from the crazy nightmares she was having. Which were her fault. She don't remember much after that, but there was a lot of blood. She was addicted to the stuff, something that carries over to today. She remembers meeting Akemi clearly, but that's about the only thing she still recalls. She has no memories of a family, except for a faint outline of those who were her relatives when she was alive. She is the leader of a gang of demons, and because she's a demon herself, actually doesn't normally take part in fights where they are involved, since most of them are extremely bloodthirsty.

Interesting Facts: She's a demon. Sexuality unkown.

--+--

Name: Akemi

Age: 15

Gender: Female

Physical Description: She has bright green hair that goes down to her shoulders, and a hourglass figure. She usually is in some shade of green, but will wear white and black as well. She's built larger and taller than Kainda, and is obviously more muscular.

Personality: A bit sweeter than Kainda, but way more deceptive. She isn't as violent for sure, and will stop a fight if something the other person says peaks her interest. This is probably because she can place people under illusions based on their past experiences. She takes advantage of being the only person who can tease or taunt Kainda in any way.

Background: She never took a side when the origional...incident happened, as she didn't have any pokemon, so it wasn't affecting her in any way. She and her family continued living as they always did, which consisted of massive training for all of them, if and when an attack did come. Her parents were obsessed with everyone in the world being out to get them, which is what caused her to wander outside the estate every so often. She met Kainda right outside, while she was trying to figure out how to get over the wall without flying. But Kainda definitely changed her, she doesn't know for the better or the worse, but slowly, everyone around her started to die. Friends, family, people she would just meet on the street. It caused her to be labeled as cursed and thrown out, where Kainda was the only one left that was for her. She just kind of follows her wherever she goes.

Interesting Facts: Bisexual (HINT), and can imitate one of Kainda's attacks on one hand.

It's short, I'll fill it out later.

Name: "The Figure"

Age: Unkown. Well over 5000.

Gender: Male

Physical Description: Human-like, he wears dark robe to conceal his features and is hooded at all times.

Personality: The Figure is awash with dry humor and intellect, he has little fear, but overall he is a polite and calm person (Polite in his own"I shall destory you" kinda way)

Background: Unkown. Rumored to be of an immortal species that was wiped out long ago.

Interesting Facts: Immortal, he posseses powers most can dream of (he is able to take on the God of Pokemon and win) he looks down on the current Pokemon Revolt is and leaning towards the humans side in the war.

I'll do my two most major characters for now.

Name: Michael Jonathon Marcus

Age:17

Gender: M

Physical Description: Human - Tall, thin, yet surprisingly strong. Pale-skinned, wears glasses. Wild, dirty blonde hair and a look of always being very tired. He always wears a simple shirt and jeans, and occasionally a combat jacket and ammunition belts for his prized minigun.

Personality: Intelligent and quick-witted, he can rarely resist making small (and often corny) jokes at whatever he does, yet, he can be quite serious when he wishes.

Background: Michael has erased all traces of his background from existance, in order to protect both himself and his family.

Interesting Facts: Exceptionally strong, carries a minigun as a personal firearm. Fights neither for humanity nor Pokemon, although he does lean from side to side depending on the actions of each. Currently leaning more towards the Pokemon.

----------------

Name: Ithil

Age: Exact age unknown. Estimated to be around 19 years.

Gender: M

Physical Description: Pokemon, Sneasel to be specific - Stands around 2.5 feet tall, shares the same red-and-black color scheme as the rest of his species, however, his colors are significantly darker. He has one usually-covered scar along his back from a fight with a pack of Houndour in his youth. Wears a specially-tailored black cloak, a small quiver of black arrows, and a simple brown belt which holds the sheaths for his various knives.

Personality: Ithil seems calm, as if he lacks all emotion. He does not show worry, or annoyance, or anger. Unless someone calls him pathetic. The taboo insult against him, few in recent years have dared to say it and lived. Other than this, he seems to have reached some kind of inner balance, presumably as a result of his rigorous training according to his codes.

Background: Ithil was the runt of his family, always picked on for being the smallest. As a result, he began trainign earlier than his siblings, determined to prove that his size did not make him weaker. When older, he frequently picked fights with his tormentors, usually winning. He would, however, occasionally be goaded into a fight with little chance of success, if his tormentors called him pathetic for not participating in said fight. He was later drafted into the cause of the True Rangers, the original order of guardians who strove to protect the natural order of the world. After three years of harsh training he finally passed his trial and was accepted fully into the order.

Interesting Facts: Rarely uses Pokemon Techniques, instead fighting with his small recurve bow and wide array of knives. Has been conditioned mentally to resist forms of mental persuaision, telepathic control, etc. He was one of the few Pokemon who was unaffected by the Reversal Calamity, as it is known in the order.

I posted on RC way before this.

Name:Dracoon

Age: 13

Gender: Genderless

Physical Description: Humaniod Dark Lugia-Wears a white, bloodsplattered hoodie. Has blades in place of arms, and spikes instead of flaps. Red eyes.

Personality: Extremely twisted and totally insane. Coldblooded, he doesn't care if anyone dies because of him.

Background: Was infected by a virus as a human that turned him into what he is now. Hates humans very much and loves killing.

Interesting Facts: He eats humans for food. AND drinks blood.

Err..... sorry... let me try this again. It wont let me edit it for some reason.

Name: Chris

Age: 18

Gender: Male Physical Description: Human, stands at about 6' 3", brown wavy hair, blue eyes, wears a jean jacket, a black undershirt, and blue jeans. Carries a wooden kendo sword on his back.

Personality: Chris has a heart of gold when it comes to his pokemon, but for them alone. He fights for the pokemon cause, because if the humans win, he'll never be able to be with the one he loves. He practices a mind over matter, peace over violence life-style, carrying a wooden sword to represents his standing to fight for what one believes in, but to never kill for it. He will, however taunt his opponents, but try to settle things verbally first, tehn he'll fight to the end.

Background: Chris is one of the few Eeveelution trainers, managing to raise and train all of the Eeveelution, including his first pokemon, an Eevee who chose not to evolve. Chris has always been a closet pokephilliac, never showing his love for his Eevee in public, for being afraid of shunned by the entire world. But he loves her, and she loves him as unrequited love. With the great war upon everyone, Chris and his pokemon were finally able to come out of the darkness, and just be accepted by others like him. But now the rest of those so called 'normal' humans are trying to stop the pokemon Empire. And Chris isn't going to go down without a fight. He is one of the Elite Soliders of the Pokemon army, answering only to Mewthree (or Lance, a little unfamiliar with the plot) and its closest advisors, due to his skills as a trainer, and desire for the New World.

Interesting Facts: Chris was abused as a younger child by his parents. This could be the reason he is a pokephilliac.

Chris loves all of his pokemon, although Eevee is his first and true lover. And well.... lets just say when the pokemon broke loose.... err... it wasn't exactly rape.

Chris is one of the few Trainers to break the Trainer rules and carry more than six pokemon at any one time. He never did this before the war. But now that pokemon are in control, the human rules mean nothing to him.

Has a slight reputation, his nickname being the Elemental Swordsman, for obvious reasons. He is currently in command of the Eon Battalion, attacking a small rebel base. Feel free to join in if you want too.

Pokemon: Eevee (female; alpha pokemon. Is always kept out of her pokeball, rather like Ash's pikachu.)

Flareon (male)

Jolteon (male)

Vaporeon (female)

Umbreon (male)

Espeon (female)

Glaceon (female)

Leafeon (male)

Personalaities-

Eevee- childlike, playful, friendly, usually affectionate, loyal and fairly energetic. Is loyal to Chris, her lover, to the very end.

Flareon- Is rather hot headed and always ready to fight. Doesnt like to give up, and absolutely hates to lose. Has a very 'fiery' passion.

Jolteon- Can change mood rather quickly, though is normally calm and collected. Can be easily angered if startled or surprised. Is Chris's primary male lover and second in Command of his team.

Vaporeon- Is rather shy and bashful, and blushes often whenever her trainer shows affection for her.

Umbreon- Is quiet, rarely voicing his opinion or commenting on anything. Though ready to fight for his trainer, Umbreon is an observer, and would rather watch as events unfolded. Does show affection for his trainer, though is rather silent about it.

Espeon- is increadibly loyal to Chris and would do anything to keep him, or Eevee, from harm. Even though she knows Eevee is Chris's true lover, she is happy to just have her moments with him and pretend she is the only one in his life every now and then. For her, that is enough.

Glaceon- Is a tad cold to her Trainer, even though she does have a very warm spot for him in her heart. She is even colder to other pokemon, and absolutely frigid to her enemies, or those who would harm Chris.

Leafeon- Usually bright and sunny, a very silent, optimistic, and playful pokemon. LOVES personal time with his Trainer

SO yeah, this is the group. ^^

*stamps his forehead* ACCEPTED!!! Welcome to the cause, post in the Pokemon HQ thread when your ready...or...something...

Edit by Fee-Shouldn't I do the accepting? Eh.

Edit by me- SILENCE!!

Mwahahahaha! After about four months, I have returned! (FOUR months?!? Hell, I'm even a mod now!) Anyway, cue madness.

Wolfie, did you steal my sister's profile image???

Name:

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Physical Description: Average height, shoulder-length black hair, grey eyes, wears black leather armor, carries a longsword on his back (Ok, sounds too much like Marth from Fire Emblem, only his hair is blue and the sword is on his hip). Wears gloves- the only area of skin visible is his face. Right arm is mechanical (Gaah!!! Watched too much Full Metal Alchemist!!!! Curse you, Feevee!!!). Can create fire by clicking his fingers, and manipulate it (Again, too much FMA! Again, curse you Feevee!). Has some genes from a Ditto, so can transforn into any Pokemon or object, but only has about a third of the power of the real deal.

Personality: Fairly balanced, weighs risks well, but is a bit too sadistic. Few to no friends, human or otherwise. A loner.

Background: Unknown, even to himself- was his memory erased or something?

Interesting Facts: When he transforms, his normal clothing and equipment vanished with him, but nothing else does. How odd! If he transforms, he is about a third as strong as the Pokemon, but untransformed he can defeat a mid-to-high-level Pokemon.

~TJicebeam~

...I thought this image looked very very very...very familiar...but it's adorable...so tell your sister that she has an excellent taste in picture...ummm...I dont think that dittos can turn into objects, and he has to have at least a little bit of a background...and tell your sister that the avatar is still adorable

Well, I figued I'd write up the bio for my primary MK III character, Wraith the Scyther.

Name: Wraith

Age: 3 years(which is in the upper end of middle-aged for her species)

Gender: F

Physical Description: Wraith is a Scyther, with typical green skin and long arm-blades. however, she is scarred from a number of battles, one in particular, and her left eye is useless, having been slashed in a fight. In addition, she is often seen covered in blood, as she sees it as a sign of being a skilled hunter to be drenched in a prey's blood.

Personality: Wraith is very cool and collected in almost all of her endeavors, and views everything for a natural perspective. She is also a fierce hunter, and is certainly not picky. She will eat almost anything she can take down, including, on occasion, humans. Many humans see her as evil, yet she calmly justifies her actions by simply stating "It's nature's way. You humans just can't grasp that." She once told a human who asked her why she did it "Because I am a hunter, and you are my chosen prey." When told that it was wrong, and that humans had rights, she grew angered, stating "No more rights than any of the animals you've killed. In fact, you are worse than I am. I kill solely for food, or for my own protection. You kill for both of those as well, yet you also kill simply for fun. I've seen human "hunters", who mount stuffed animal heads on their walls. I've seen fish caught and put in displays, rather than put to proper use and eaten. You call me evil? Then what does that make you?" Despite this, Wraith does not hate humans, much as she does not hate any of her other chosen prey species.

Wraith will easily fly into a rage at the mention of the name Tyr, her self-proclaimed greatest enemy.

Wraith has been rumored to have a thing with Alex Wels, although both deny it.

Background: Wraith was once an Alpha Female of a Scyther pack living in southern Kanto. She defeated her mother for the position, however, did not banish her mother from the pack as she might have if she had conquered the previous Alpha family. However, her rule was cut brutally short when Tyr, a former Alpha from a rivalling pack, saw Wraith's pack as a chance to regain dominance. Tyr attacked Wraith in a bloody duel. Tyr took the upper hand quickly, but her arrogance proved to be her downfall. As she mocked Wraith,she didn't realize that she was opening herself to be attacked. Wraith sliced off Tyr's right arm and badly damaged one of her wings. Tyr, in retalition, slashed otu Wraith's left eye with her remaining blade, but her injuries proved too great and she had to retreat. Wraith stepped down to her own daughter soon after, realizing her new disability put her family's dominance, and by extension, lives, at stake. She left the pack after stepping down and went on to become a renegade. She was far from any affected location when the Reversal crisis occurred, and was thus unaffected.

Interesting Facts: She is an excellent swordfighter, and is able to speak English.

@Ice-Yes, FMA rules. :D However, number 1-Yes, you can use Ditto, yes, you can turn into objects. However, you have to have seen the thing you're transforming into (If it's a picture you're using, practice makes perfect.) Secondly, i'm issuing a blanket ban on 'no memory, loner' characters for their inherent sueness. If you PM me more details, i may let you.

@Ro-Epic. You have my permission.

Name: Kinzoku

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Physical Description: Average height, shoulder-length black hair, grey eyes, wears black leather armor, carries a longsword on his back (Ok, sounds too much like Marth from Fire Emblem, only his hair is blue and the sword is on his hip). Wears gloves- the only area of skin visible is his face. Right arm is mechanical (Gaah!!! Watched too much Full Metal Alchemist!!!! Curse you, Feevee!!!). Can create fire by clicking his fingers, and manipulate it (Again, too much FMA! Again, curse you Feevee!).

Personality: Slightly sadistic, doesn't look out for other people. He will team up with others, but doesn't care if they die.

Background: He knows little about his past- was his memory erased? Over the past year he has spent all the time either training or trying to force his mind into restoring his lost memories. He remembers his hometown (well, city)- Viridian. Figuring that would be a good place to try and find out about his past, he is travelling towards there. But is he even going in the right direction?

Interesting Facts: -He uses the ancient language, like Ellen. Because he has lost so much of his memory, his speech often flicks between two languages. -His name means metal, because of his arm. He named himself, because he does not remember his real name.

Totally dropped the Ditto stuff and made him less of a loner, plus I've given him some past. Happy now, Fee, Wolfie?

~TJicebeam~

Yes.

Personally i liked the Ditto stuff. :D

Well I'm happy, the thing that I didn't just like about the ditto stuff was that he had a mechanical hand, and could conjure up fire...I just didn't see how ditto fit into that

I think the Ditto made him too complicated, but maybe i'll have him catch a Ditto later...

~TJicebeam~

Eh.

Is the format messing up and not letting you use new paragraphs?

HTML code is The Less than sign, p, More than Sign, and then at the end of the paragraph it's the same with a / before the p.

Damn. Didn't work. You know the arrow pointing Left? Write that, the write a 'p'. The write the right arrow. This is for the start of each paragraph. Then, at the end of each paragraph, write the same, but put '/' before the 'p'

Kay.

Name-Lixxy Mareva

Age-17

Gender-Female

Hometown-Saffron City

Appearance-Has long, curly brown hair partway down her back, and dark brown eyes. Pretty, but ever so slightly overweight. (Will all but kill you for mentioning it.) Wears a skirt and a t-shirt, both black, quite tight.

Personality-Very, very flirty. Some people would call her a slut. She'd pretend to be furious, scare them, then burst out laughing and congratulate them on stating the obvious. She IS a slut. However, she is a reliable friend, and a reliable enemy. You know where you stand.

History-Became a trainer at thirteen, starting with a Chikorita from New Bark Town. She defeated the Johto League, declining the offer of fighting the Elite Four is favour of travelling to other regions. In Hoenn, she discovered Contests, entering a smaller, slightly different contest league to the standard one. Because of this distraction, she took longer to defeat Hoenn. She finally moved on to Sinnoh, defeating them before setting her sights on the Elite Fours. She never defeated Kanto. The reason for that lay in some very strict laws that were in place in that region, leading her to leave as soon as she was old enough. (I'll explain this in Accomplishments)

Battle Style-Rely on type and move advantages, other than that, go for pure power. She occasionally uses status moves, but very rarely. Her favourites seem to be Swords Dance and Toxic.

Pokemon- All of Lixxy's pokemon are fitted with translators, but this is irrelevant due to the strange mental affects of the waves.

Viretha: A Bayleef, her starter. Did not evolve due to mutual agreement. Viretha is sarcastic, and has a strange obsession with dark and ghost types. In fact, she wants to get one. She dyes her fur a grey-black colour, and tries to pass it off as natural. She has also managed to learn Shadow Ball and Dark Pulse. She denies actually having eaten the respective TMs, but Lixxy has her suspicions. (Likes Giga Drain, Shadow Ball, Dark Pulse as her signature moves)

Dream: A Dragonair, Dream was acquired when Lixxy snuck into the dragons den in Blackthorn. She was shouted at and told never to return, and when it was heard that Dream was very happy, she was asked to return. Dream is very shy (If you watch Naruto, she's like Hinata). She hardly talks to anyone, and she stammers. Like Viretha, she agreed not to evolve with Lixxy, as she didn't want to and Lixxy thinks Dragonairs look nicer. (Dragon Rush is her favourite move. She wants to learn Flare Blitz and Volt Tackle, and is currently able to do them, but generally does MORE damage to herself than the target)

Mimaru: A Milotic, Mimaru is absolutely beautiful. He's also a smooth talking charmer, and arrogant to boot. He knows his skills, and is happy to take advantage of him. He's as close to Lixxy as her starter, if not closer. He's primarily a contest pokemon, and an excellent one, but he does have other skills. (Favourite moves are Attract, Ice Beam and Waterfall. For example, create a Waterfall, freeze it with Ice beam and use Attract to shatter a large hole in the shape of a heart, leaving a sheet of ice-rain with a heart shaped hole, before it melts into water.)

Metela: A long suffering Arcanine, Metela is the mother of the group. She is always trying to look after Lixxy and the other pokemon. She is the most sensible, and the most in touch with reality. She's the one who reminds them to buy a tent before going camping, not to mention the one who checks whether certain things are legal. (I'll explain that too) She acts like she hates them all, and she's a martyr, but she cares for them like her own children. (Favourite moves are Flare Blitz and Extremespeed, especially in combination)

Raphael: A Raichu with a sarcastic streak three light-years long. Raphael would do anything for anyone he cares about. He either hates you or he'll give his life for you. Not that he'll admit it. (Favourite Moves are Volt Tackle and Iron Tail)

Ciel: A Lunatone, he swears that he's male, but biology hasn't caught up with some of the weirder pokemon yet. Anyway, it could be a long running joke. Ciel is like that. He spends his time trying to make everyone around him happy by being as entertaining as he possibly can. (Favourite Attacks-Psychic, Ice Beam, Flamethrower)

Accomplishments-Has all of the badges from Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh, but hasn't even challenged any of the Elite Fours. She is accomplished at contests, especially a particular type of Beauty contest where the trainer has to take part more as well. (This explains some of the things above, but feel free to ignore it if it's too edgy) The fact that she left Kanto, needs to watch the law, and is very close with Mimaru are all connected. Kanto has laws against pokephilia. In fact, she was thrown out of the finals of some contests when she was filmed with Mimaru... When people bring this up, she laughs and asks if they want to see an action replay. So far, no-one has said yes. But it is NOT a bluff.

Alignment-Bi, thanks for asking. But seriously, she agrees that pokemon should have more rights, but not so much with the slavery and rape. But she'd rather pokemon were in charge than humanity took back over and globally illegalised pokephilia, which they surely would.

(( I need to make one small change to Wraith's Bio, as well as Write up a Bio for one of my two human characters. Sam, I'll do later, right now I wanna do Alex's... ))

Fair enough.

Why the (('s? This is a non RP thread...

Name: Alex Wels

Age: 29

Gender: M

Physical Description: Alex is human, with long golden-brown hair, which he ties back in a pontail. He has a matching short beard, lightly-tanned skin, and sea-green eyes. He wears simple clothing, a pair of blue jeans, a green t-shirt, and a tan vest. He has two tattoos, one on each shoulder. The one on the left is a simple, intricate design he saw in a stained-glass window once, while the other is of a flowering tree.

Personality: Alex is what many would call a hippie. He loves nature and has great, yet equal respect for all species of life on the planet. He is a very calm individual, rarely, if ever, growing angry. He is one of the only humans Wraith truly respects, and it is rumored that the two are involved in a relationship.

Background: Alex was born in Saffron City, Kanto. His parents were rabid anti-pokephiles, however, their son proved to be the opposite. He was appalled at the actions of some anti-pokephiles, his parents included. He bought a train ticket in his father's name and ran away to Johto, to his uncle in Goldenrod. His parents insisted that he be returned home at once, however, the day before he was scheduled to be sent back, their house caught fire when a downed power line struck their gas line, and they both died. He legally passed into his uncle's custody and remained in Goldenrod. His uncle urged him to become a trainer, and sent him off to Prof. Elm to recieve a starter pokemon, a Cyndaquil to be precise. However, he grew interested in radio broadcasting, eventually taking up a job as an reporter at the Radio Tower. He was sent to interview a supposed talking Scyther, and when he did so, he nearly found himself a meal for said Scyther, namely Wraith. However, upon showing her great respect, she allowed him to live. The two eventually became close friends. Alex gave up his reporting job to pursue a proper Pokemon Trainer quest once again, and Wraith often accompanies him in his travels. As with Wraith, he was far from any civilized area when the Reversal occurred.

Interesting Facts: Has Three Pokemon:

Hun - Typhlosion. His first Pokemon, Hun is very gung-ho and impatient. He gets along well with the others despite this, and has a close relationship with Arc. His faorite Move is Fire Punch.

Arc - Ampharos. The first pokemon Alex caught, and his second pokemon overall, Arc was a Mareep when he caught her. She is the polar opposite of Hun, calm and patient. She shares a close Relationship with Hun. Her Favorite move Is Thunderpunch.

Spy - Sneasel. Spy is the most reserved member of the Trio, and rarely speaks to anyone outside his circle of close friends. He is secluded and stealthy, almost ninja-like. Despite this, he trusts his comrades with his life. His faorite move is Metal Claw.

In addition, Alex is often aided by Wraith the Scyther, his close friend. In Reversal-infected areas, he masquerades as Wraith's human.

I like it.

I like Felix's :D

Yaay.

(ignores rant)

(Still ignores)

Sneaky, you really just LOVE to turn the entire fanbase against you, don't you?

Why don't you commit genocide on something more useful? Like Pokeboys, which I will NEVER understand or accept the concept of....

(whistles innocently)

Sorry about that, but your ethics and morals seem strange to me. Genocide is never a solution. Really, war shouldn't be either.

War also breeds hatred, which breeds conflict, which breeds more war. Genocide does the same, only faster.

I'm actually on Feev's side. It's a question I've always wondered: How does killing each other solve any problems?

That's a question at ALL of humanity. Why does ANYBODY think that it'll solve their problems.

No it's not. A ruler who is loved is secure within, and only needs worry about people outside. A ruler who is hated is too busy watching his back to do anything.

A feared leader will have assassins pouncing on him from the shadows. A feared leader will have his downtrodden people in hiding, resisting quietly. A loved leader has neither of those problems, though it is true that he has to be careful to not make a mistake.

Nothing to fear? Like Stalin? Hitler? They ruled through fear. They lost. Stalin killed millions of his own people because he feared treachery. So did Hitler. A power based on fear is built through fear and based on blood. It cannot last.

Rome as a whole, for ages. Individually?

Did you know there was a period of fifty years featuring twenty different roman rulers? They were all assassinated.

True. A loved leader has LESS chan ce of being assassinated, not no chance.

In response to your comment about 'downtrodden and ideal fools', i don't even think i can begin to explain how many levels that makes me feel physically ill.

I'm going to sleep, it's half past eleven. I'll continue this tomorrow.
