Hello! Welcome to Broken Futures!
Although we are a based on Dragon Ball keep in mind that we use it for the elements the show brought to us. We are not using ANY canon characters, only the world in which the show was built on. We are mostly a free form RPG with some stats to help track character growth. However, for the most part, your stats only matter in important fights or large events ran by a GM/DM.
We don't have any specific guidelines on what can or cannot be written about. So long as the Zetaboards ToS isn't violated. If a topic gets mature, keep it reasonable and do your best not to violate the host ToS. We don't like to limit you to what you want to write about and will trust your judgement not to make any posts in the extreme.
We are set in Future Trunks' timeline so the world is in ruin. Which would classify it as post-apoc. It's always been the best-styled setting to build a new world on top of. We have built this site to be based around the actions of the players. You will help build the world you're playing in. Every action within major events will influence how the world structures itself.
We have no word count, no canon face claims, no post formatting and no drama. We want you to come here and have fun. Before you sign up, please look over the Game a bit to decide if you are interested. After you've made an account make sure to introduce yourself here and say hello in the Chatbox. We love new members and are a very welcoming bunch of people.

Kamrun
|
The only village in the desert, is what he had told her. After she had helped out at the port, and paid a visit to Bruin who seemed to live there. She headed off out towards the desert on a quest for magic beans, which reminded her of a children's story her mother used to read her. She had no cows to sell, so hopefully her and the white-haired man could strike a deal some other way.
Now normally 'the only village in the desert' would have been just as dangerous as 'go play in traffic' for someone who didn't know the expansive geography of the sandy place, and could easily get lost and die of dehydration. But as it so happened, Kamrun knew where the village was, stumbling upon it in her time of need, having been lost and dehydrated, and paid for water with her healing skill.
Assuming there wasn't another 'only village in the desert,' and that the man had simply been speaking about the only one he knew of, she arrived at the small town by the rocks and looked around. She had assumed he would be immediately visible. However, it wasn't difficult to find white-haired men, asking around is what helped her find Bruin after all. She knew the best place to get information was the bar, so that was where she headed, stepping in and going to the counter. She waved at the barkeep with a friendly smile, "hello, some water please," she asked, certain it wasn't an odd request, "and um, "I'm looking for a man, about this tall, white hair and dark skin?"

Kamrun
|
Kamrun shook her head, pausing as she patted the beans to be more in a cluster to be able to tell their differences.
"No," she answered him after a moment, "I've seen enough people exploded by energy attacks and mowed down by guns. I've seen the insides of people and... in the end, we're just... meat, bones, organs," she shrugged, "which is fine really, means that this one life you got to live's the only one you've got, so you have to live it to the fullest, be the best person you can be while you can," she looked up and smiled, "if there's a life after this one then, there' no point in sacrifice, or no point in living this life if there's supposedly a better one waiting for you in some unseen place. That just doesn't make sense."
She smiled softly, "Not many people agree with me, which I understand. Some people need there to be a good place for their loved ones to go after they pass on, it's the only way they can keep going, and move on to be happy again some day.
For me, it's just... hm," she tapped her finger on the bar, "life itself is enough of a reason, it hurts sure, it's always painful at first, but you can't just sit and wait for a divine being from somewhere to tell you it's gonna be alright, you have to get back up on your feet and keep going, otherwise you waste away and die and well, I already explained where dying gets ya," she smirked.
"Anyway, probably not a nice conversation to have before breakfast."

Daze
|
"Eggs up!" Bruce declared, sliding the two orders of eggs to them.
Kamrun's is scrambled.
"Huh, makes sense. Never really got into the whole after life stuff. Sure, I went to Demon World, but it wasn't Hell or anythin'. Just people, well, kind of people. Like us, but different. Older, stronger and... weirder," Daze scrunched his lips, poking the yolk with his fork.
It oozed out over the egg, bringing his mind to the descriptive things Kamrun talked about. Organs, guts, death... Daze took a bite, eating both eggs in two bites.
"So, since we're going to live life to the fullest, cuz we're awesome, what's the one thing you've always wanted to do?"

Kamrun
|
Bruce brought the eggs and Kamrun carefully shifted the beans over to make room for the plate. She smiled as she got it, "thank you so much Bruce."
She looked down and grinned, happily picking up a bacon and biting the end off of it. She hummed and smiled, jittery in her seat for a second.
"So good," she said happily and then lifted her fork to have some of the eggs. Scrambled, like she made them herself. She'd have to make a comment to Bruce later about him being psychic, when her mouth wasn't full of delicious bacon.
Daze however asked a question, after some riveting revelation that demons existed, but were just people, kinda like aliens. She quickly swallowed, "um, well," she smiled, "do you mean something instantaneously gratifying or my long-term goals?" She smiled, "my greatest dream is to open a hospital, I mean, I'm sure they have one in Central but... one that anyone can get to and not be afraid to be taken care of without being indebted to a city for the rest of their lives, you know? I mean, I know you gotta pay because people need to live their lives, but it feels wrong to take so much from people who are already in pain."
She shifted, resting an elbow on the, bar, her eyes looking up as she thought, "but given you are Daze I'm guessing you mean something more instantaneous," she hummed, "probably, one day, fall in love. Guess that's a long term goal as well, let's see... oh!" she perked up, "I've always wanted to go dancing, at, like, and actual dancing place. My mother always used to tell me stories about how my father and her met at a club, and that they just danced and shared drinks and had fun," she smiled, "I'd like to do something like that one day, when someone has a good enough life to open that kind of place, a club."

Daze
|
"Hospital, huh?" Daze asked, almost wanting to spit. "Yeah, screw that Central place. I got gutted by some girl with a sword while I was there. Wouldn't even take me to the hospital, got this scar on my stomach," Daze said, pointing to his stomach, remembering that was wasn't wearing a shirt still. "This was before I started healing myself too, so it actually hurt," Daze complained, almost ranted.
"I'd love to see some more stuff outside of there. Central is too... big. Only caring about the snobs up top, little people suffering and all that. Pisses me off," Daze continued, sighing to allow Kamrun to change the subject to an immediate wish.
He listened to her desire to dance, knowing he's been to a place like that before. But he couldn't place where.
"OH!" he exclaimed. "I been to a club, but it's um," he hesitated. "That place up by the mountains. Forget it's name," he laughed nervously.

Kamrun
|
Daze didn't seem to like central at all, and she blinked as he described it. It shocked her really, hearing that there was a divide between rich and poor and that he was just attacked for no reason and wasn't helped, allowed to suffer and scar. She reached over when he showed the scar and touched it gently.
"I"m sorry," she said softly, wishing she had been there to help.
He quickly got back to being happy, saying that he knew of a club and Kamrun brightened. But he didn't remember where, exactly, just that it was a place in the mountains.
"In the mountains?" she repeated, "um... do you mean Frypan?"

Daze

"Fry...? No, no. It's a new place. Um... a big ole city, just popped up out of nowhere," Daze noted, scratching his chin.
"He means Terminus," Bruce chimed in between his bites. "A city that has declared itself independent from Central. Not a very nice place, but it's Daze's style," Bruce said, shaking his head.
"Yeah, no rules. Do what you want. No big dog telling you what to do or taking your stuff," Daze boasted, acting like it was a piece of heaven.
What he doesn't know, or remember, is that he not only assisted in building Terminus but it is far worse than that. It has an slave trade, thugs and bandits call it home and prostitution runs rampant. There are legitimate businesses and people living there, often those turned away from Central. But the scum in the city stand out compared to those just wanting to get by.
"It's not all bells and whistles. The place has got a dark underbelly. I'd steer clear of going by yourself little lady," Bruce said again.

Not Frypan, "Terminus?" she looked at Bruce, the two men taking turns describing it, each under a different light, with Bruce finishing by warning her to not go alone. She was a bit surprised, she had never heard of this place. She looked from Bruce to Daze, then to Bruce and smiled, "I'd go with Daze," she said, "it's no fun going dancing alone anyway."
She smiled and went back to eating her breakfast.

Daze
|
"Don't you worry, I'd never let anything bad happen to her!" Daze said with a cocky grin.
Bruce could only smile and shake his head, continuing his breakfast as well.
"I tell you what, BB," Daze said, pausing for effect. "As payment, you can join me for some dancing up at Terminus," Daze offered, making it sound like she'd be paying him with a fun time at the club instead of him taking her to go do the thing she said she wanted to do.

Kamrun chuckled, eating more of her bacon happily, rubbing her fingers together after finishing them off and looking around for a napkin to clean them with. Daze then piped up and said that as payment she would go dancing with him and she grinned and chuckled, "my payment is to do something I want to do with you?"
She grinned, "I don't think you get how this 'debt' thing works, but if you're fine with going dancing, then I'll happily go dancing with you," she smiled, "and we can both dance badly so that no one feels bad."
She chuckled then looked to Bruce, "sorry Bruce, you have a napkin, I don't want to get bacon grease on your bar...."

Daze

"I guess I don't get how the whole debt thing works. I just think it sounds like fun and you can pay me in fun," Daze said, deciding on how he should be paid. "What's more valuable than being happy and havin' a good time?" he questioned with a raised brow.
"Always had a simple view on life," Bruce said, bringing over a stack of napkins, likely far more than she needed.
"Easier to live when life is simple," Daze countered.

"Yeah but," she said, taking a napkin, "the way it works is that you ask someone to pay you with things or stuff that you want, that's what makes it fair. You trade something they want, for something you want. Value really depends on how much you want the the thing and how much you like having the thing they want."
She smiled and set the napkin by her plate for later use if necessary, "so the question is, do you want to go to Terminus to go dancing?" she smirked

"Well," Daze paused, grabbing one of the many napkins to wipe his mouth. "It sounds like fun, I like fun... so yes, I want to go dancing with you in Terminus," Daze said, trying as hard as he could to talk properly.
"So, will you pay me back in fun?" Daze asked, not specifying the amount of fun or how long the fun had to be. Just, have fun.

Kamrun smiled as he worked it over in his head. When he finished his decision he asked her a question and she gave him a definite nod.
"Yes Daze, I will happily pay you back for the bean with fun," she grinned, "but first," she held up a finger, setting her empty plate aside and pushing the beans back in front of herself, "I need to actually find the bean. Which isn't this one," she said, dropping it into the jar.
"When would you like to go?" she asked, looking up from the steadily shrinking pile of beans.

"Anytime's good, like right no--"Daze stopped, watching her put the bean away. "Oh yeah, beans. I think I'm going to dream about beans tonight," Daze said in jest before catching the potential double entendre. "I mean actual beans, not you... well, maybe you too," Daze stuck his tongue out, playfully.
"But after the beans, sometime. Anytime really, get's boring out here a lot," he admitted.
"Hey!" bruce interjected.
"You're a hoot Bruce," Daze teased.

Kamrun

Daze almost suggested that now was a good time, and she was about to cry out about the beans but he caught himself, and Kamrun chuckled, shaking her head and takking another bean away.
"My schedule is always free," she said, concentrating for a bit on a bean and setting it aside then picking up two more beans and putting them in the jar.
"We can go right after, we can go a day after, or a week."
Bruce protested at being called boring and Kamrun looked up and grinned, "I like you Bruce."

Daze

"You sure you just don't like me for my bacon?" Bruce laughed. "I joking, you're a sweet kid," Bruce complimented, by calling her a kid. Which, they both were compared to him. He hardly had any color left in his well-trimmed beard and balding head.
"You sound just like me," Daze noted. "Never have anything ahead, planning is boring, rather do it as it comes," he boasted as if it were the proper and best way to live.
They all likely knew the real reason he didn't plan ahead.

Kamrun snickered, "no, I like you because you're nice," she protested, "and yeah, you've got bacon which is a plus."
She looked over at Daze as he spoke and she smiled, "some people call that having no life," she said, sticking her tongue out at him. She looked at the beans and poked around at the ones left, humming and then singing softly as she focused.
"Sorting through beans~, just you and me~ these lyrics suck lalalalala~," she grinned and shook her head at herself.
"I'm pretty sure it's this one," she said, picking one bean up but pointing at the one she set aside, "but I want to make sure first."

Daze
|
"Say-What!?" Daze exaggerated. "I've got a life. Just recently I had the cutest redhead in my bed who I saved from a robot ninja man with an army of at least forty robots," Daze said, telling a sort of truth... that lead into an exaggeration. Mostly because the details were funny.
"You tell me someone else has a better life than that?" Daze asked, almost rhetorically.
Daze was curious if it was the bean, but she wanted to make sure. Which meant more beans for a minute. He was patient. Sort of. Not really. He was, however, entertained which was a placebo for patients.

Kamrun grinned as Daze recalled the story of saving her from a ninja man with robots, "I thought that it was 100 robots, and that there were two ninjas."
She smiled over at him, "I don't think anyone has a better life than that," she conceded and chuckled, "that redhead sounds like a lucky girl to have made it into you're bed."
She chuckled, "better be careful that she doesn't break your heart though."
