We'll start out with the backstory! The trolls, who originally lived on Alternia, were raised by their Lusii in their infancy as they should be, and all met like they did in canon. However, when they all hit around 7 years (Or whatever that is in sweeps), something (which has not been revealed yet) happened to all their Lusii, except for Nepeta, and all of them (except for Nepeta), were somehow transported to the Midnight City, where they were taken in by their respective Stabdads (By the way, Midnight city has essentially the same backstory as in canon, EX: it was made by Spades Slick, he owns the town, yadayadayada) Nepeta, who was left behind with Pounce, discovers the disappearance of her friends and promptly FTFO. Several years go by (About 5 to 6), and the Trolls are all 13ish. Not much is happening in the Midnight city (Other than the regular shenanigans that transpire), but on Alternia, it's about to be destroyed by Lord English, whom has been rampaging throughout the universe instead of destroying dream bubbles, because the dream bubbles don't exist. Anyways, Calliope (Whom was killed by Lord English like in Canon, and later was resurrected using the Ring of Life, which she now has) appears on Alternia mere minutes before LE destroys it and finds Nepeta, sitting alone, mourning the death of Pounce (Who was killed by LE when he landed due to seismic activity and was crushed, much like in canon) Thinking fast, Calliope grabbed Nepeta and fled from the planet right as LE destroyed it, and headed for the Outer Rim. Upon arrival, the Horrorterrors immediately took an interest in Calliope, having heard of others of their kind being killed by someone who looked similar. Eventually, Calliope convinced them she was NOT her brother, and then proceeded to ask for their help in defeating her brother. The Horrorterrors explained that to defeat Caliborn, they would have to COMPLETELY destroy him, soul and all, or he would just come back. But they also explained that, like her, his existence, even in death, was necessary for the balance of Paradox Space. They stated that someone had to take his powers, or the universe would cease to exist. Calliope volunteered, but the Horrorterrors refused, believing she would have too much power. Instead, they choose Nepeta as their vessel, believing that she would never bring harm to them or to the universe at large. Nepeta, who was recently traumatized by the death of her Lusii and the destruction of her planet and supposed extinction of her race, agreed to help. The horrorterrors then took it upon themselves to train them and give them knowledge on how to defeat Lord English. They gave combat training to Nepeta, as well as granting a release on her powers as a Rouge of Heart, and taught Calliope how to use her powers in a way that would help her defeat Lord English, and even explained her powers in detail. Several more years passed before LE arrived in the Outer Rim in search of his sister, making the trolls 16ish. An epic battle ensued, and ended in the defeat and supposed destruction of Caliborn and Nepeta obtaining his powers. Having fulfilled the agreement Calliope, Nepeta, and the Horrorterrors had made, they all parted ways. (During their time together, Calliope and Nepeta became moirails) Nepeta, not knowing where to go, however, pleaded with a horrorterror to reveal the fate of her "late" friends. The horrorterror, out of what might have been pity, or perhaps gratitude, revealed the location of her friends and told her they were alive. Estatic, Nepeta sped to the location of her friends, and found them all living with their new guardians, perfectly healthy. However, they were afraid of Nepeta and her new powers, seeing her as evil. For as a matter of fact, they had meet LE before, who was the head of the Felt (Who are in Midnight City BTW), and knew how strong he was. They shunned her as a monster, telling her to leave. Heartbroken, Nepeta was about to leave when she was approached by the now leaderless Felt, who asked her to become their leader. Nepeta accepted, and joined the Felt as their leader.

That ends the backstory. From there, everything that happened was RPed by us.

The NightNight crew and Felt began to plot on how to take out the other, whilst the Problem Sleuth Crew was busy being stuck in their offices. Eventually, the Felt and Crew gave up on their plans, worrying about the interference of the Sleuths on either side, and instead started businesses in town. Doc began noticing pockets of black areas around the town that he could not see with his omniscience, and became unable to know everything in regards to the crew. Worried about this, he developed a flare, allowing him to momentarily see in one of these pockets. Meanwhile, the Crew "attacked" Problem Sleuth and the gang, having a massive battle ensue that ended in both sides realizing that one side just wanted to ask the other a question. Their problems resolved, the Crew went home and the Sleuth Gang began repairs on their offices. However, on the way home, the crew discovered Eridan and NightNighted him, effectively turning him to their side. Nepeta, meanwhile, was attempting to rekindle her relationships with her fellow trolls. However, she hit a snag when she discovered that Kanaya had ruined many of her ships she had made years previously (Not gonna say which ships) She even went as far as to post a wanted poster for Kanaya! However, she still wanted to reconnect with the other trolls. Approaching Sollux first, she pleaded with him to let her talk to KK, saying it was important. In response, Sollux called her a monster and said he would NEVER be friends with her, nor would he allow any of the others to talk to her. In tears, Nepeta fled to the town center, where she took down the wanted poster for Kanaya and sat crying for hours. Sollux went home, confused on Nepeta's reaction, and told the Crew about everything. Karkat, upon hearing this, wanted to go see her. Sollux and the rest of the crew were all strongly against it, and prevented him from going. Eventually, Karkat snuck away from the Crew and Sollux, and found Nepeta crying in the town center. He used his best friendship skills (Effectively friendzoning Nepeta, which only made her feel worse) to try and convince her that Sollux didn't mean this. Sollux, who had followed Karkat and was hiding nearby, heard this and felt guilty. He rushed out and pleaded with Nepeta to accept an apology. It ended in a group hug with the three of them (KK a little reluctantly) only to be interrupted by Spades, who had followed Sollux.

Now, a little bit of backstory that kind of happened at the same time as all of this.

Horrorterrors were still dying, even after the "death" of Caliborn. Many horrorterrors began to believe that Caliborn's powers had turned Nepeta evil, and that she was killing them just as Caliborn had done. Yggdrasil, a member of the Noble Circle, contracted Spades Slick to kill her, granting him inordinate amounts of power, and conditional immortality.

Back to the RP story now~

Spades confronted Nepeta, stating that she was evil and demanding she get away from his son. He also claimed she was killing horrorterrors, and that Ygg contracted him to kill her. Nepeta, realizing that there was foul play her, decided to play along with Spades claims. She demanded he leave, stating she was bonding with her friends, and nothing more. Spades snatched KK and Sollux away using shadow tendrils, and attacked Nepeta with the same tendrils. An epic fight ensued, in which Nepeta essentially kicked Spades ass at least four times (He created four shadow clones)((Authors note: HA! SUCK IT SILCKENSOUL! NEPETA BEATS SPADES ANY DAY)) Nepeta then revealed that she wasn't the one killing horrorterrors, and that she had recently discovered Caliborn was still alive and had consumed a member of the Noble Circle, and was posing as this member. Spades, upon hearing this, freaked out and rushed from the scene to inform Yggdrasil. Nepeta, disconcerted by Spades behavior, left KK and Sollux and traveled to her secret vault in the mountain, where she retrieved Caliborn's staff. She went straight to the Crew hideout, where she discovered Spades in a trance. When he snapped out of it, Spades informed the crew and Nepeta that Caliborn had been discovered. However, when he was confronted, he slaughtered several Noble Circle members and fled. Spades said he was heading to their location. He then pleaded with Nepeta to create a temporary truce, stating that he had convinced Ygg to cancel her deal to kill her and that he would need the Felt to defeat Caliborn. Nepeta agreed, and left to strengthen the Felt for the ensuing fight. However, Spades realized he had completed all of his binding deals with Ygg, and decided to retire, leaving Droog in charge of the Crew.

Now, before I continue, I want to point out that this will get pretty confusing, as there will now be TWO Spades Slicks

Shortly after Spade A quit, another Spades appeared, holding Die's doll. He babbled for a while before coming to his senses, and explained that he had attempted to come to a timeline where Lord English didn't exist, but the doll had broken on his way here. Droog explained that not only did LE still exist, but he had the powers of a Horrorterror in this universe. Spades B, upon seeing Karkat, asked who the hell he was, and after a bit of questioning, explained that his universe was a lot harsher, and that the Trolls did not live in HIS Midnight City, as he had never seen them. Meanwhile, Clubs Deuce was sent to negotiate a treaty with the Problem Sleuth Gang, who heartily agreed. PI entered the Imaginary Realm and searched for a way to bring his imaginary self to the physical world, while the others prepared to fight Caliborn.

PLOT TWIST TIME! WOOT!

Caliborn arrived in a blaze of shadow magic in the center of town, effectively creating a crater the size of the Felt Mansion. PI, whom had used his (Whatever it's called that allows him to function in the Physical AND Imaginary worlds), saw Caliborn arrive and fled to the mansion, where he notified Nepeta that Caliborn was here. Nepeta, in a panic, got Doc Scratch to teleport her to the center of town, where she confronted Caliborn. An short dialogue ensued, as well as a short skirmish, in which Caliborn captured Nepeta and took back his powers, effectively becoming retardedly overpowered. He created a Shadowy replica of the Felt Mansion and locked Nepeta inside the Shadowy version of the Time Vault (But not before beating the holy hell out of her and leaving her barely alive, chained to the wall) Droog and the Crew went to Death, and asked for his Scythe. Death agreed, on the condition that he got Caliborn's soul when they were done. Droog took the Scythe, and the Crew arrived back in town from the Afterlife to confront Caliborn. Caliborn, upon hearing this, flew down, and promptly created 100 time clones of himself, all equally as powerful. A ridiculously awesome fight broke out, in which Slick B was possessed by Yggdrasil, and Slick A absconded the fuck out of there. Droog killed a bunch of Caliborns, but eventually, everyone was totally overpowered and massacred. However, Since Death works the same way in the RP as it does in Problem Sleuth, none of the Crew cared and simply came back. However, upon them exiting, Caliborn propped the door to the afterlife open using his OP time powers, effectively preventing anyone from coming back again for the duration of the fight. Meanwhile, Slick A took a boat out to where Nepeta's vault was and dug up a box containing a deed. He was intending to start a Farm and Fishery, in a life of retirement. However, Caliborn appeared and promptly tore his arm off. The Crew and Felt all appeared to try and stop him, as well as many of the trolls, but were all defeated. When Caliborn was about to kill everyone, Doc appeared, and overclocked himself, effectively making him OVERPOWERED AS ALL GET OUT. He managed to teleport everyone to safety and forced Caliborn to flee back to his mansion. Meanwhile, Deuce (Who had been wandering around by himself for most of the fight) had snuck into the mansion. When Caliborn arrived, he attempted to Self Destruct, trying to kill Caliborn in the process. Caliborn froze him in time and disappeared. When he unfroze, Deuce exploded anyways, dying completely (He blew up his soul too), and raining hell all over the city. To add to the chaos, Caliborn began destroying most of the town, destroying everything except the conveiience store and the Sleuth Offices. He returned to the destroyed grounds of his mansion and reconstituted it, and went to his room, which he then surrounded with a time field to prevent anyone from entering except for another time player, and promptly took a nap. Doc Scratch ported into the mansion, and rescued Nepeta (After frighting some shadow minions) He took her to Kanaya and asked her to treat her injuries, and then teleports to where Caliborn's mansion should be floating. Meanwhile, Droog and Slick B broke Caliborn's time field and attacked him, and defeated and killed him. Upon his Death, Caliborn's mansion disappeared. When Doc arrived, he (To Quote) "uninverted a pocket of space that was conveniently here, freeing everyone who he had trapped for their own good while the OP types dealt with Caliborn" And promptly began to fade. He zapped everyone to safety in the ruins of his bar, detonated a flare on himself, saving his own life, fainted, and crash landed in the street.

So ends the Caliborn Arc!

After a short dialog between the currently conscious members of the Crew, Felt, and Trolls, everyone went home (Except for Nepeta, who was still being treated by Kanaya) Slick B got a new minor horrorterror pet named Jim, who is basically a dog. Eridan, who was no longer nightnighted, returned to the crew hideout to retrieve his gun, and was owned, eaten, and killed by Jim (Good Horrorterror, best friend) Sollux rebuilt the hideout and his arcade using his epic powers, and then took Eridan's body to the Sleuth Gang's offices, where he encountered Doc and Kanaya. Meanwhile, Nepeta has recovered and is mourning the loss of most of the Felt (Who died and haven't returned from the Afterlife), and blames herself for everything that happened. Despairingly, she resolves to leave forever, but encounters Slick A, who convinces her to stay as a hired hand on his farm. Ms. Paint arrives and visits Spades A, and Nepeta leaves them alone with a wink, going off into town. Kanaya and Sollux chat for awhile about the new Spades B, and eventually Sollux decides to quit the NightNight crew. However, Slick B and Droog arrive and kidnap Kanaya, planning on NightNighting her and having her trade her soul in exchange for the revival of Clubs Deuce. PI chases after them, along with Sollux, Doc Scratch, and Nepeta, who arrived just as it was ending. PI arrives first with Sollux and demands an explanation. Upon hearing it, he becomes enraged. Sollux is disgusted by Spades B's behavior and quits the crew, leaving. PI attacks Spades B, and a fight ensues, in which PI is knocked out for a month and Spades B dies. Droog, meanwhile, is attempting to prevent Kanaya from escaping. Karkat helps Kanaya escape, but is promptly knocked unconscious. Nepeta and Doc arrive in the midst of this, and Nepeta takes PI, after he's knocked unconscious, back to the Office, and returns shortly afterwards. While Nepeta was away however, Eridan returned to get his gun back again.

SIDE STORY TIME!

While all this was happening, Eridan was in the afterlife, attempting to get back. By accident, he kicked Death's game cabinet, effectively killing more people than Hitler and )(IC combined. (The cabinet is made up of universes) As punishment, and also as release (So he doesn't cause any more damage) Eridan is sent to retrieve all the lost souls that escaped during the battle with Caliborn.

Back to the main story!

When Eridan arrives in the Hideout, he is again attacked by Jim, but this time manages to kill the horrorterror (Awwwww) but loses an arm in the process and faints. When Nepeta returns, she finds Eridan and takes him to his Marina, which has been repaired by Eridan's hard working employees. Doc leaves and Droog gives up on capturing Kanaya, and returns to the hideout to await Spades B's return. Nepeta waits for Eridan to wake up, and they converse a little, before Nepeta disappears. Eridan, who is totally oblivious, misses this completely and runs off to find all the missing souls. Nepeta appears in the Outer Rim, where she is confronted by Yggdrasil (Who is disguised at first but eventually reveals herself) Ygg senses the despair in Nepeta (What with Nepeta's love for KK being unrequited, all her friends dying a bunch, guilt, etc.) and eventually convinces Nepeta to strike a deal with her; Karkat will fall in love (Pity) with her, in exchange for a small portion of her soul. Nepeta is transported back to town, where she returns to the mansion, feeling much happier. Meanwhile, NB has arrived in town, and is looking for PI. She finds his store, and enters to see a strange troll girl behind the counter. She asks who she is, and is told that the troll girl has just started working there recently.

Sidestory time! (It's a short one this time)

Nepeta decides to get her mansion repaired, so she goes to Sollux to have him repair it. He agrees, and they both go off to PI's store to get supplies

Back to the story~

Nepeta and Sollux arrive in the store, and are surprised by the Troll girl, seeing as how Trolls are essentially extinct. They eventually realize that PI has been unconscious for quite some time, and that the troll girl must be lying. However, before they can confront her about this, Kat (Yggdrasil) appears, pretending to be lost and not Ygg. Nepeta, being the only one who knows her, stays quiet. Behind her walks in Calliope, whom Nepeta hasn't seen in about two years. They greet eachother warmheartedly, but it is a rather short reunion, because soon afterwards, Spades A and Ms. Paint arrive. Spades A is shocked and angered by the appearance of Ygg, and yells at her. Nepeta eventually convinces him to leave, but not before Slick B arrives. NB, who has been very confused this whole time, FTFO. To control her, Nepeta transfers her emotions to the nearest person susceptible, who just so happens to be Slick B. Slick B freaks out and throws knives everywhere, which everyone dodges except for NB , Ms Paint, and Calliope. Droog, who was following Slick B, promptly knocks Slick B's lights out. Spades A pleads with Droog to help Ms. Paint, who is bleeding and unconscious on the floor, and Ygg disappears. Nepeta convinces everyone to leave (Except for Slick B, who is unconscious) and waits for Slick B to awaken. When he does, Nepeta questions him, and gets him to promise not to reveal that she made a deal with Yggdrasil.

And that's up to date on what's happened so far! Holy damn that took forever! Someone get me a trophy! Seriously. I want one. Please? No? Okay...
