Man eating individuals. They cannot eat anything but humans, or if they are desperate, each other.
Ghouls
Scorned by society and despised by humans.
They have but two options. To live in secret, feeding off the victims of accidents or similars so as to not starve, or go out every night to hunt their game.
Either way, their lives are ones meant to be lived in secret, making sure no one sees them, making sure no one discovers them, lest they want to be prosecuted by the feared CCG. The special police meant to regulate Ghouls. If one is discovered, they are authorized to shoot, and kill, on sight.
Truly, in these cases, and as bullshit-ty as it may sound, what you need the most are friends. Those that can understand you and that will support you, regardless of who you are.
And even those friends might be your downfall. Nothing in life is certain.

So, I want this RP to be a High Casual RP following a group of 4 ghouls. Meaning, 4 people, including me.
These Ghouls are all:
- Orphaned
- Assisting College/Old Enough To Assist College
- Have Had Previous Encounters With The CCG
- Have Some Degree Of Notoriety With The CCG
- Good Natured, Even If It Doesn't Show At First
- Have An Edgy Past That May Twist Their Good Nature
- Are All Special In Some Way
These Ghouls try their damned best to get by in one of the districts, though I have yet to know which one.
Truthfully, I only have a rough storyline for where I want this RP to move forward to and I want the players to help me flesh out the world in which this will occur.
I want all of us to decide where the story will take place, what the district looks like, how much control the CCG has over the place, among other things.
Organizations of Ghouls and arenas will also be a thing around here, but I also want the players to help me with that.
In any case, I present to you:
The Storyline
Four kids that met at a tender age in some dirty street of Japan or other.
Having lost their parents, or perhaps discarded by them, they knew not how to survive in this harsh world, and with no relatives whatsoever, they truly would've had no guidance had it not been for a certain old man that helped them.
His kindness knew no bounds, and you four had caught his eye. He took you all in, having the resources to afford having all of you in his house. A huge mansion, way out of the road and considerably well hid between other more ancient buildings.
Once dressed properly and with basic education, the man discovered something. You were not normal. At least some of you.
When you tried to take a bite out of the food he offered you, you felt like vomitting. The meat looked delicious, and yet you could not stomach it down.
It was a shocking revelation for the old man. He knew that you were not humans, but Ghouls. And still, he smiled, as neither was he.
With this new information at hand, the man taught you how to use several of the special traits Ghouls possess. Using a Kagune, controlling your inhumane strength and other abilities, how to feed without having to kill, how to control your Kakugan, and how to better control your eating urges, through the use of coffee or similars.
The man schooled you, taught you how to mesh in with human society, and even allowed you to assist school.
One day, though, the man was killed without previous notice, having had to fight for his life against the CCG, but never once revealing the existance of you four children.
His mansion was burnt to the ground and you four were left without a home once again.
You decided to go your separate ways at such a time. You were still in middle school, or perhaps even in elementary school.
Perhaps you still saw each other from time to time, or perhaps you suddenly up and disappeared, there are many things that could have happened.
Yet, you somehow all ended up in the same place. 8 years later, nostalgia hit you and you decided to visit the ruins of the mansion in which you lived the best years of your infancy, only to be met by other three familiar faces.
And some others not quite as familiar. Despite the fire, the foundations and walls of the mansion had not burnt all the way to the ground, and it hadn't been demolished either, instead serving as a refuge of sorts for a group of kids.
When one pranced at you, you saw that they were in fact Ghouls. Orphans like yourself who had somehow found their way to this house.
Was it fate? Was something telling you that it was the time to repay the favor? Regardless, you decided to stay and see what you could do about it....
So, yes, you've got 8 whole years to make your character's background as edgy as possible (or not, your decision), and you don't have to have started off as a Ghoul either! I am willing to accept a single One Eyed Ghoul, either born that way or artificially made.
I would like this RP to be balanced with 2 character being male and 2 others being female. While I do plan on having a male character, I can also make a female character.
I want this RP to follow the story of how this Ghouls try to feed a troupe of orphans while trying to stay outside the eyes of the CCG, see how drama will ensue!
So, any takers? Yay, nay? Want to spit on me?
I am open for any questions, suggestions and such, just post them down here.
