Welcome to the Crossroads Role-playing Thread!
Here, your OCs can transcend the very confines of time and space. Through otherworldly gateways, one can find themselves in a parallel Legends Universe that can be alike in many ways yet has something entirely different from the others. Here are the Rules to get you started, and a Glossary so you understand some of the terms.
[RULES] 1) There is a limit of 6 active party members at a time. Canon Characters count as two. 2) Only one person at a time can control Canons. 3) No uncanny knowledge of other Characters' whereabouts. 4) No uncanny finding of another Character's inventory. Inventory can only be found if purposely discarded by the current holder. 5) No Godmodding beyond your Characters' abilities without reason. 6) No instantaneous teleportation without any prerequisites whatsoever. 7) Basically, nothing that is unfair without proper justification. 8) All Forum regulations apply. 9) Have fun in your journey across the multiverse!
[GLOSSARY] Crossroads: A dimension that serves as an inter-dimensional travel station. It is an infinite maze of intersecting white hallways lined with Gates. Gate: A direct portal between Crossroads and other dimensions. All ordinary doors can become Gates when unlocked with the Gatekey and become locked again once shut. Locked Gate: Any ordinary door that is not connected to Crossroads and is thus still tied to its own dimension. The Gatekey: The cryptic phrase that was once recited by an ancient civilization to unlock a Gate. Not necessary for Gates in Crossroads, as they remain unlocked indefinitely. Crosser: A Character who knows and often uses the Gatekey to pass through Crossroads.
With all that done and said, let's get this show on the road!

{{ACT 1: Beginnings}}
One day on Densetsu Island...
Bowen: Hmmm... Coast seems clear... *presses hand on Rico's bedroom door* Infinite and forevermore, open the--
Rico: *swings door open* You knocked? *smirks*
Bowen: *falls forward* WAAAAAH-- OOF!! ...No, I didn't...
Rico: Hehe... *closes door*
Bowen: Hopefully other Crossers have better luck than I do... Every Gate I try to use, she's on the other side just waiting to slip me up...

((Oh look, I broke the silence of this thread. Pretty much the entire RP section, actually.)) -In a Dimension called C12-
Igiaro: That was one tough case. Although maybe I should've stored the evidence instead of forgetting and coming home with it...
*Runs into a strange door next to his house*
Igiaro: Augh! Again! What is this stupid door, anyway!? ...Though I guess I should be more embarrassed that I thought it was the door to my house for the 5th time this week...
*Tries to push the door open*
Igiaro: It won't budge. Um...uh...roses are red, I'm filled with glee. So please, oh please, open for me?
*Door slowly opens*
Igiaro: ...The sad thing is that I've seen weirder.
*Ignorantly walks in*

((OOC: transcend trough time and space?... and space-time? WHy I haven't seen this one before?))
*somewhere near a fence that is used to keep wild animals away a boy is sitting on the ground with a laptop on his lap while a girl around his age is playign with a tennis ball*
Alyssa: Oh come on! How much time you need anyway? You've been there for hours!
Marco: I've been here for two minutes. *replies without taking his eyes of the screen*
Alyssa: Bah! I thought yopu could decipher the gatekey faster than that!
Marco: You want to try it? It's not... oh here we go.
Alyssa: *throws the ball to the front gate of the fence and looks at the screen* Up and down, where I go. Spin the lock and fast make it so... This doesn't make sence!
*the ball hits the gate and it opens*
Marco: You were saying?
Alyssa: Ah alright whatever just don't fall behind. *Grabs the ball and enters being followed by Marco which quickly closes the laptop before standing up*

((Finally! Heh, here goes!!)) Rico: *following Bowen throughout Crossroads* Please please please please please- Bowen: Okay! Fine, you can take souvenirs! *sigh* ...Just... Promise me you'll keep that full arsenal of yours in your backpack where it belongs? We don't want to be labeled as Pirates, now do we? Rico: Don't worry. I've got it... Under... Control... *twitch* Bowen: You said that just before you attached a C3 to my jet... Rico: It was a C 4, and you have twelve of them anyways! Bowen: ...I'm gonna regret ever letting you into Crossroads, aren't I...? Rico: Yup! Bowen: Ugh... *facepalm* Just keep walking until we find- Rico: A purple creature in a business suit? Bowen: *stops* A purple what...? *looks forward* Wh-?! Wha-?! What the hell is that?!

Igiaro: I've been wandering around forever. I'm SO thirsty... *Sees two people in the distance* Igiaro: Yes! People! I'm saved from this white black hole! And I LOVE oxymorons! *Takes out business card* Igiaro: Good afternoon! ... -On an island in Igiaro's dimension (C12)...- Tabor: What kind of antique shop is this? There's nothing here... Store Owner: Nothing catchin' your eye? Just keep looking and buy! Tabor: (I wish he'd shut up...) I'll take that door over there for my house, I guess... Store Owner: Yes! That'll be... Tabor: Is there a problem? Store Owner: Who put this door here? ...N-never mind. That'll be...um... Tabor: If it's not your door, then I shouldn't have to pay you, should I? Store Owner: ... ... ...! Tabor: Thanks for that! *Takes the door* Tabor: Time to install this thing... *Later, after installing the door...* Tabor: Alright, now to see how it opens... *Door doesn't move at all* Tabor: ...Stupid door...All I ask is that you open, and you can't even do that? -Back at Crossroads- Igiaro: Wait, who said that...? *Opens the nearby door the voice is emnating from*

Igiaro: Huh? Oh, one's coming!
*Slams door he was opening immediately*
-
Tabor: Huh!? It was just opening...Open back up!
Igiaro: *Ignores voice* Hey there. I'm Igiaro Matto, Ace Lawyer. Do you...um...have any water, perchance? Or know where we are?

Rico: Heya! Name's Rico, Weapons Developer of Densetsu City's mechanics shop. You've landed yourself in the dimension known as Crossroads. Dunno how you could've, but somehow you did it.
Bowen: Done talking to the random purple Crosser, Rico? Because I would like to arrive at Tsundora Resort, you know, before their winter discount offers expire?
Rico: Calm down, we have plenty of time. Hey, catch. *tosses Igiaro a water bottle*
Bowen: (This waste of time is massively killing my patience by the second...)

Igiaro: Thanks for the water! And, um...
*Drinks*
Igiaro: I'm not a Crosser, whatever that is. I'm a lawyer, from...I guess some people would call it C-12 (Although I'm not sure what that means...). And I'm not sure what Crossroads is...the most I know now is that this series of white hallways are called Crossroads...
-
Tabor: Open UP! *Beats on the door in anger*
-
Igiaro: ...This may sound like I'm being stupid, but I actually want to see what's behind that.
Igiaro: ...Anyone here a thrill seeker?

Alyssa: *waiting for Marco to enter the Crossroads* Finally! What took ya so long!
Marco: Uh.. the laptop probably shouldn't be on while in the cross roads so...
Alyssa: Nevermind that! So where do we go?
Marco: I thought you knew...
Alyssa: So we don't know where to go.. I THOUGHT YOU HAD A MAP!
Marco: To the gate...
Alyssa: Oh... I though it was strange why we weren't using the usual gate...
Marco: *facepalms* Hey why don't we just ask someone?
Alyssa: DO YOU SEE ANYON.. oh hey, people! *runs there as Rico rams the door open* You know there are keys to open doors right?
Marco: *panting* Next time sis... warn me when you leave me alone...

*Tabor dashes in and crashes into a wall*
Tabor: Ow...huh...?
*Sees a bunch of people staring at him*
Tabor: ...Who...are you people?
Igiaro: ...Hey, I remember you...! You were in that murder trial I once had when you were convicted for vandalism!
Tabor: ...! N-no! That wasn't me...You've got the wrong person! I don't know any of you! Where am I!?
Igiaro: Sheesh, calm down! Your voice is like a megaphone! We're in...um...Criss-Cross Streets...? No, Crossroads! And...um...well, that's about all I know. I'm still in the dark about what the heck is going on around here.
Tabor: Oh...and about you being a lawyer...
Igiaro: I'm not defending you for anything but murder.
Tabor: ...*sigh*

Bowen: *looks at Tabor* Another... Thing... How nice... *sees Alyssa and Marco* Oh great, more Crossers. Just what we needed...
Rico: *to Alyssa* Yeah, I know about the keys. I just wanted to have fun is all.
Bowen: Tick-tock, Rico. Limited discounts wasting away here...
Rico: Anyways, I dunno about any of you guys... *hugs Bowen's arm* ...But we were off to a fancy resort for the holidays!
Bowen: (Of course!!)Yes, together! Sooooo, let's go! *ahem* Because I'd really hate to waste so much valuable quality time that I should be spending with you at the resort. (Please tell me she'll finally stop wasting valuable discount time...)

Alyssa: *to Rico*I can see why. In fact i myself have a huge reputation of door-smashing and ramming.
Marco: *sweatdrops fall on his face* I don't think that's something you should be bragging about...
Alyssa: *sees Rico hugging Bowen's arm* Fancy resort... oooh I see... *wink,wink* I get it. Hey! WE SHOULD GO AS WELL!
Marco: I would like some rest that's for sure but we might get in the way...
Alyssa: What would get in the way is your nerdy chit-chat. I've decided!
Marco: Why me...
