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.

Roots
|
Roots wasn't sure if Daze was ready. He wasn't sure if he himself was ready, but his anger had escalated beyond the point of waiting anymore. Since he had seen the devastation in Terminus and seen the sorrow and despair in Haven, he had kept hold of this anger, let it sit, and hoped it would calm itself.
It had not. And when his wife had told him that she literally could not be mad at the human, it was a slap in the face and salt on the Saiyan's already aching wound.
He had waited for perhaps a day, but when his lover had left to seek out the one named Kamrun, the Saiyan knew it was time. That was why Roots was in the desert village, and he stepped through the door to Bruce's bar, and met eyes with the man.
"Hello, Bruce. Where is Daze?" His tone was...off. Bruce was an older man-he could likely see the anger in Roots' face.

Daze
|
"Oh, hey there Pooches," Bruce said with a smile, not actually knowing Roots by any other name. "He's up stairs, last bedroom on the left. Been asleep. Miss Kamrun had already left for the day, she shouldn't be gone for too much longer," Bruce added.
Daze on the other hand was sound asleep. Sleeping the day away after staying up all night helping Bruce around the bar. He was trying very hard to be constructive. One step at a time. He had to mend his fragile emotional state before he could do much else. Helping Bruce was just the first step to a full recovery.

Roots
|
The Saiyan was surprised that Bruce let him know where Daze was so...easily. His eyes narrowed when the bartender told him that she wouldn't be gone for too much longer, so the cloaked Saiyan nodded and headed for the stairs, without an ounce of emotion on his face saved for eyes which glared.
He did manage to smirk for half a moment when he passed the room where he and Angeles had stayed for a couple weeks after Angelina had attacked. He let out a sigh and shook his head, wishing he was in a better mood.
Maybe he could have appreciated that memory a little bit longer.
He got to Daze's room and reached for the doorknob, and let out another sigh as the door swung open, slowly, creaking. Roots' eyes narrowed when he saw the man sleeping on his bed.
As sick as it was, it occurred to Roots how easy it would be to kill him, right then and there. He slowly stepped forward, blinking his eyes slowly, until he was standing right next to the bed above the man while he slept.
"Dragon-fucking-dammit," He had a cigarette in his cloak, so he reached down and pulled it from it's pocket and pulled it up to his lips, and then let it with a finger and a spark of ki.

Daze
|
Daze was oblivious to the presence of one of his old mates in the room. He was and always had been a heavy sleeper. Little did Roots know, however, murdering Daze would be far harder than before. He was not a smart man and wielded magic that no man should ever have access too. He had messed with his own genetics during a pissing contest with Torasin.
Daze was now effectively immortal.
But how could Roots know that? He hasn't attempted much contact with Daze after the... Incident.

Roots
|
Smoke trailed up into the air around Roots while he just stared down at the man, sleeping. Indeed, he had no idea of the man's immortality, but at the end of the day if Roots wanted to end Daze, and truly end him, there wouldn't be a speck of Daze to regenerate from.
If Roots had his way, at least.
The Saiyan reached forward with his free hand and snagged at the covers, and pulled them from the man, tossing them across the room. His eyes widened when they saw the sleeping man on his stomach, still covered in the white hair-like material.
Roots shook his head softly, and then with his leg shoved against the bed, a little more than just violently. It probably shifted a foot or two.
"Wake up,"

Daze
|
Normally, Daze was a heavy sleeper. But normally he was also passed out from over-intoxication. He has, however, been nearly three weeks sober. Ever since the events that transpired on that alien rock, Daze hasn't tasted a drop of alcohol. So when Roots kicked Daze's bed, he was woken up quite easily.
"Roots..." a sober Daze muttered, both eyes open, glaring.
He had no other words.

Roots
|
The Saiyan had noted that he did not smell like alcohol and piss, but rather, almost exactly what Kamrun smelled like. He frowned as the man shook, and awoke, and all the man said was his name, glaring up at him.
"Daze," Roots shot back. He tilted his head for a moment, staring down at him, and then after a few moments of uncomfortable silence he reached into his cloak. He was silent as he rifled in his pockets, pushing back tears until he finally found it.
Two bracers, made of some sort of stretchy cloth. He tossed them forward on top of the man, still glaring down at him.
"Put those on. They go onto your arms,"

Daze
|
"I got a lot of questions... but I'm just gonna trust you," Daze said plainly, placing the bracers over his arms. Putting them on was easy enough, he could tell, however, taking them off would be far more challenging.
"There, they're on..." Daze said, popping his neck and stretching. It was hard to see at first, but now that he's out of the blanket he was wearing Saiyan Armor. Not quite the newest design, but it didn't have the super shoulder pads either. A second generation model. Black and gold in color design. "What now?"

Roots
|
Roots was surprised, honestly.
He was expecting a little more resistance from the man, but all he did was admit he had some questions and put them on. The Saiyan held back his smirk, watching as the material formed around Daze's arms and then essentially locked in.
They'd be hard to take off, almost impossible by himself. His eyes narrowed at the old armor he was wearing, and he had to wonder where he had gotten it.
"Now...you just stand still," He said quietly, and then leaned forward, placing a hand on Daze's right arm. Energy flowed from Roots into the human and his bracers, and then with a pop, the bracers hummed to life, each one generating a field of ethereal energy around Daze's orbs.
The Saiyan was hoping it worked.

Daze
|
Energy flowed around Daze suddenly, his hair lifted and began to float around the air like he were under water. The orbs began to glow brighter and brighter until they simmered down to a soft hum. Daze was gone. Zen Daze was present, the real Daze. His breathing parsed for a moment, closing his eyes for a few moments before opening them.
"Roots... you... what? No. I understand what... how?" Daze asked, looking up slightly perplexed about what's going on. "And... why?"

Roots
|
The Saiyan had envisioned this moment for such a long time it almost tore his heart open to see the orbs glowing brighter and brighter, until they finally ceased. Their glow was reduced to a docile hum and then after a moment to catch his breath, Daze spoke.
"...I've cured you, Daze," Roots said in response, quietly. He took another long drag from his cigarette, standing in front of it.
He moved quickly.
His free hand darted forward, not in a punch that would seriously hurt Daze, but enough that it would certainly make him feel a little pain. His clenched fist aimed to rock right into the man's cheek.

Daze
|
"Roots..." Daze said, looking away from his once called friend.
And suddenly the man he once called friend sucker punched him while he wasn't looking. It was a hard punch. Probably would've killed a normal human. But Daze was anything but. Even in his current form his magic did what it could to protect him. The impact was reduced significantly, further more by the sheer durability of his own body. Immediately his skin began to glow green in the spot he hit and what little damage was done began to heal.
It hurt.
Not physically.
But it was a blow to his pride and trust.
"I deserved that and a lot more," Daze admitted, refusing to look Roots in the eyes. "If you want to take your anger out on me. That's fine. I only request we do so away from here. Angeles worked so hard fixing this room up. I'd hate to have her work destroyed," Daze requested, looking over and up at Roots, slowly.

Roots
|
It was bittersweet. The angry part of Roots was a little upset that Daze wasn't looking him in the eye when he socked him, but the part of Roots that wanted to forgive Daze was appreciative of the fact that he didn't have to.
Both parts of Roots knew Daze deserved it, though.
"Do me a favor and don't even say her name," The Saiyan said, turning away from him. He let his cigarette rest in his mouth and rubbed his fist where it had struck Daze. The Saiyan shook his head, wanting to let out a chuckle. As far as Roots knew, Daze was the only person on the planet that he could punch and his fist would hurt more than where he had hit him.
Granted...
Roots turned back to face him, face still straight. Tears welled behind his eyes but he would not cry in front of Daze.
"Those fields around your arms are ethereal fields, powered by my energy and the bracers that are on your arms now. I could get into all the bullshit but there's no point. Basically, those little gems are capable of generating these fields that essentially take your orbs to another dimension,"
He stopped rubbing his fist and brought his hand up to his cigarette and then exhaled smoke up into the air, and glanced at the man's walls and floor. Courtesy of his wife. He glared at the man.
"How the fuck do you sleep so soundly?"
He hadn't acknowledged Daze's request to move away from the bar for a reason. He wanted the man to feel uncomfortable. Scared, even.

Daze
|
Roots was being very hostile. He was mad. Daze didn't need his emphatic magic tagging Roots to tell him that. He was being irrational and reacting to his emotions rather than logically like Daze was trying very hard to do. Such a strange day that someone was acting more like Daze used to more than he was. He didn't even need the bracers to act this way... he was so scared of his own abilities that he had been very timid and shut in.
"Kamrun has been helping with that... I'd be dead if not for her," Daze said. "She brought me back from my emotionally traumatized state and is helping me heal so I can make amends for what I did. I can't... I can't help others. Not yet," Daze explained.
"Sleeping... if you can call it that, is more passing out from exhaustion," Daze winced, looking away from Roots again.

Roots

Dead?
He felt sick when the thought crossed his mind. Would the world be better if you were dead? He bit his tongue, fighting back at the pained tears. The Saiyan took a few steps away until his back was against the wall and he slid down, until his bottom was touching the red velvet.
He tapped his cigarette against the window, letting his ash fall in the sill. His voice was quiet. Angry, but weak.
"I don't know why, Daze. Why, why I finished the bracers so quickly. I was looking forward to the day I could talk to you, the...the r-real you, in your room, normally for so long," He shook his head and put his cigarette back in his mouth.
"Instead, I finished it in a rush because without them...you're dangerous. You'll hurt someone again. I finished them in fear."

Daze
|
"Tell me about it..." Daze scoffed, at himself mostly. "Why do you think I isolated myself from everyone for the last couple weeks? Why I severed the spell that bound me to my friends? I'm too dangerous to be around any of you... reckless, thoughtless and stupid," Daze sighed, wiping a tear away from his right eye before it welled up too much.
"I've talked to Ang--" Daze paused. "I talked to my friends about this before... it's not the first time I acted out of anger and did something I regret," Daze admitted. "City Ruins... after I felt Astraea die, some thug approached me and he was just gone... nothign really left of him. His blood stained my arms. He was just some thug, sure... but I didn't even know I did it," Daze's body jerked, holding his emotions in check. "Poor Glacius showed up and wanted to fight. I took my anger out on him. He was strong, he could take it," Daze finished.
"I don't need to be around a lot of people or have friends. The fewer people around me the better..."

Roots
|
The Saiyan's emotions only grew more conflicted. Churning, savagely, and they threatened to vomit out his eyes in salty tears.
He still would not cry in front of Daze. The man sitting on the bed did not share the same sentiment and wiped away at a tear of his own, and a ping of pain, like a string plucked on a harp, resonated within Roots.
Daze made a conscious effort to avoid speaking Angeles' name and explained to him that he had hurt people before. After Astraea's death, a man. Glacius, too, although that Arcosian could take it. Roots was silent for a moment.
"You can't stay hidden away forever, Daze. You need to r-right these wrongs. You owe it." He managed to say, staring up at him with pained eyes. He let out a long sigh, and shook his head yet again.
"I...I cannot blame you entirely for Haven. But I need to hear you say that you understand you played a part in what happened,"

Daze
|
"I was... informed about Andariel's chance to throw away her second chance at life," Daze sighed. "She deserved the chance to decide for herself. She chose wrong. I am at fault at providing her a chance to live life not as a Demon, not wearing the face of the person we all cared for so much... reminding us of what Aamon and Jack had done to her," Daze explained. "I've come to terms I made a poor choice, but everyone deserves a chance at living at being free," Daze added.
"She was being hunted simply because of being born... that's not right. She didn't choose to be born. She was thrust onto this world. I couldn't just do nothing," Daze sighed. "What happened in Haven is a tragedy, but we cannot blame the actions of other individuals on anyone other than the individual who was involved in said action. I am guilty of giving her freedom to choose. Nothing more," Daze explained.

Roots
|
The Saiyan kept his temper in check, and he was glad he was on the other side of the room from Daze.
"She wasn't hunted just because she was born, Daze," The Saiyan shook his head, pain surging through his body. It hurt to even think of it, but the memory of the day Astraea died and Andariel was born played again in his head.
"When she was released from Jack Trader's sword, she was born. It was her first action to kill Astraea. I had to watch, Daze. I had to stand there, helplessly, and watch, while the woman I love was forced to watch her sister die," He was staring forward, but not at Daze.
"And...fucking Jack Trader didn't do a damn thing, he just left. Took a shit on everything and left us to clean it up. I wanted to believe even then...and even now, that something of Astraea was left. But there wasn't a trace. Angeles knew, she always knew," His eyes moved to him.
"So I think I can blame you for what happened in Haven because you made it your decision. Angeles told you, I told you what she had done to Astraea, to Angeles, to me, and you let her go. We told you what she would choose and you even gave her the power to mask her face, and now..." Roots scoffed and let out a sigh.
"And now Haven thinks she's a monster. They think I'm a monster...."

"Don't lie to me Roots. I know more about what happened than you think. Her birth was through Astraea's death. The demonic energy from Aamon attacked her. Energy like that needs a host... so magical in nature, so volatile. It cannot exist in the world around us without withering and dying. Astraea was directly attached to that wretched sword that Jack bound Aamon to. He told me, Andariel told me and Angeles told me.
When the energy found it's home inside her, Andariel was born with all of Astraea's memories intact. She knew Jack as well as Astraea did because the memories were there. She could remember the feelings and pain... and what's the first thing you all did? You attacked her. Just for being born. So don't give me that bullshit.
She was persecuted just for being alive," Daze scorned, glaring at Roots. "Unless you want to convince me that pure magical energy has a consciousness," Daze continued. "If you wish to blame me for the events at Haven why not go further back and take the blame yourself for not stopping them from breaking the sword. You were beaten so badly by Asmodeus without him even trying. You knew how powerful Demon Lords were and you let them play with magic from one them?" Daze scolded.
"As for being monsters... can you blame them? We're all monsters compared to them. We all possess the power to destroy continents with the wave of our hand. Why wouldn't they be scared? We live in a world made of cardboard..."
