The year is 1936, and the Spanish Civil War has just begun. The Republicans look to have the upper hand, holding their territories against the fascist right. Brothers kill brothers, and yesterday´s neighbours and friends are now enemies.
But, unknown to the majority of the populace, both groups have begun using people with special abilities to further their own ends in the war, and the fascists are getting support open from both Germany and Italy, while the rest of the world stands in fear of intervention causing a second world war. If it continues like this, the Republic stands little chance of winning, but the workings of fate are mysterious, and someone is about to begin a very bizarre journey which might change the outcome of the war.
But you know nothing of this, or do you? Who are you, about to begin your bizarre adventure? Will you change the outcome of this war? >A young man in the countryside, who has yet to take a side. (+1 Con) >A republican soldier, sure in the victory of your side, oblivious yet to the horrors of war (+1 Str) >An Asturian miner, sided with the republic, who fights to defends his home (+1 Cha) >Other: Write-in? ((This is indeed a JoJo quest. Historical events will be mantained more or less the same as long as you don´t get yourself involved, with some changes i won´t spoil. The stats will be decided in character creation, and the Stand that will come out will depend on said stats. i´ll try to keep my political views out of this, okay? ))

oh great. I already got my first post. I´ve already ran on qst, and while it was okay, i don´t plan to run there again unless it´s obligatory. Of course, you could always just filter quests. It´s not that hard.
Joseph Ross
Okay, so >A young man in the countryside, who has yet to take a side. (+1 Con) wins. Writing!

Your name is José Quintana, and you´ve lived in the countryside for all your life, helping your family tend to the crops you´ve needed to survive. Your economical situation is not very good- and you couldn´t study much, because you were needed at home, but you know how to read and write [Int=3]- You have a younger sister, aged 4, named Maria- She´s the person you love the most, and you always remember to bring her a gift when you go to sell whatever you can, even if you can´t get anything for yourself as a result. When the war broke out, you were found out through a friend of yours, and were shocked-Surely, it would end quickly, right? There´s no way the republic could lose to such a small group, when the main group was located across the sea, in Africa. You didn´t take any side, believing it would blow over quickly, and you believe your life wouldn´t change much, whoever wins this.
You keep a secret from everyone- you´re possesed by an "evil spirit", and it´s been there for as long as you remember. You haven´t told anyone about it for fear of being excommunicated- Like many of the rural inhabitants of Spain, you´re very religious. This spirit seems to have strange abilities indeed, for it´s power allows you to: >[] Control metallic substances. You found out when your hoe broke, and the spirit was able to fix it by fusing the broken pieces together. Since then, you´ve used it to move farm tools when nobody saw you, to finish the work quicker. (Iron Maiden) >[] Make solid light constructions that shine brightly. Not very good for stealth, and you haven´t been able to use it for anything, as it´d be very hard to hide. (Rainbow in the Dark) >[] Turn things to stone. You found out when you were attacked by a stray dog, and managed to survive barely when your spirit turned it to stone. You know you could probably use this in a fight, but you haven´t done so yet (We Will Rock You): Also, roll 6d5 for stand statistics, please.
