@Rin As @Vongola_Hasayo stated, that age is perfectly fine! Wouldn't have the HXH or DB feel if we didn't have some overtly powerful children haha.

Interestingly enough, it was working, and now I've just repasted the same link and it works again lol. Let me know if you still can't see it.


@Acid Hippie it appears as if your character image is still not working

I figured that but when I checked the actual link it wasn't broken. Anyway, I provided an entirely new link so it should work now.

I'll start approving characters once I'm finished with my character and we'll get this thing rolling. Once we get the approved characters/players, we'll take a vote on where the game will start.

@Acid Hippie So do our characters have to use both Ki and Nen or can my character just use the Nen abilities? I thought up a character who I plan to have become a Transmuter

Again @Weird tales this isn't a Hunter X Hunter RP, the characters don't use Nen.

@Dblade26 @Archmage MC@Hammerman@Solaris@Vongola_Hasayo@Duthguy@Rin

Okay so to clarify, the abilities our character's use will be reminiscent of Hunter X Hunter. But any actual terms like Nen are not going to be used.

What @Dblade26 and I had in mind was more of a middle ground. Characters will be able to sense others' energy levels and presence, they can shield their bodies with their auras, fire kinetic blasts, etc.

I actually want to leave the concept open for now, but if you're familiar with Hunter X Hunter I don't see the more complex powers like Kite's sentient "Crazy Slots" being something that would quite fit.

But as I said before, I want everyone to enjoy the game. So please provide feedback.

If players want it, I would actually be more open to discussing more complex individual powers as manifestations of qi, though naturally it would make a bit more work for we GMs in terms of individual approval for each character's powers.

That said, I'm also considering making a bit of a mapped out premise for how qi works, likely partially based on the Five Classical Chinese elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water with the addition of Air, that could be used and combined in various ways for various effects. Either thing is fine by me depending on player preference, with the addendum that we'd probably have to be a bit reserved with the former and have overall authority on if an unforseen potential loophole with a power or a level of oddity oversteps the bounds of what fits the setting, level of fairness and tone.

Feedback and suggestions, are as always, welcome.

Aw man, this RP is practically the exact same idea as the one I've been working on and was planning on making (except this one is way more fleshed out and detailed). Like, I even used very similar wording in the opening description for the thread that I was working on

I think I might just join this RP instead making mine

So could my character learn abilities similar to a Transmuter through the use of Ki?

Not necessarily, it would depend on what it was you were trying to do, and what the ultimate finalization of the power system looks like.

Discussing this with @Dblade26 now, but originally I didn't envision a distinct difference between the abilities of the species besides creatures like wild animals. So players would all fall into the same realm of abilities, just study different techniques and develop their own individual powers.

On that note, as demons are part of the species list, their auras would appear different and full demon enemies may have their own unique abilities to challenge characters with.


@tipssyCalibrator Happens to me quite often haha. Feel free to put together a character sheet and apply!

@Acid Hippie as @Dblade26 said, there are going to be different elements that characters use. Will certain species have predispositions to these different elements or will every specie start on an even playing field?

For example would a demon be able learn to use fire qi manipulation more easily than a human or not

@Solaris I see everyone as starting out on an even playing field. But if we make any species specific traits that is okay, so long as it's well written and doesn't disrupt the balance between characters.

I think I want to keep the demons' potential open actually, leaving room for such as a water demon etc.

Oh, also wanted to add.

We're postponing the character approval until we all reach a consensus on the ability application/potential and see who is committed to the game. That way no one drops out after having been approved and we can get straight to posting once the characters are approved.

@Acid HippieWell now that I look a little closer, there are a few differences. My RP was going to be more of a direct sendup to battle school shounen anime and its cliches, where yours seems to be more generally inspired by them (also the way I did the energy stuff was kinda similar but not the same). Still, I think they're more similar than they are different

Also, a couple questions

1: Does this RP exist in the real world, or is it its own made up world?

2: In this world, what would you say the most powerful and/or prestigious position in this world is? Y'know, this story's equivalent of the Hokage or Pirate King or something

3: Would you be bothered if I ended up making an RP with very similar ideas after or during this one? I'm probably gonna join this RP, but I don't want my own stuff I've worked on to go to waste, y'know? (I could PM you what I've written so far)

@tipssyCalibrator



1. The roleplay will take place in an alternative Earth, the settings to be made up as we go. They can include very realistic settings and others that are non-existent in reality.

2. There will likely be an association/board that runs The Academy. Might be a head chairman/grandmaster or something.

3. I would not be bothered at all and might even join your roleplay if I can manage. I've come across ideas similar to my own and know that it is no one's ill-intention that causes this. It's not like everyone can fit into one Star Wars or shounen roleplay anyway lol. I would not mind seeing what you have if you want to share/collaborate.

4. I love and want to steal your signature.
