The year is 1574 of the Sengoku Jidai, the Age of Warring States, and blood drenches the island nation of Japan. It was only a year ago the that the Ashikaga Shogunate was destroyed by Oda Nobunaga. Conflict continues to escalate as Oda Nobunaga turns his ambitions towards the Takeda clan and with it, the emergence of more and more yokai. These demons have begun to manifest more and more as hardship befalls the country. It has come to the point that the Onmoyo mages and normal samurai can no longer contain or properly deal with these supernatural beings. That is why there is a new force coming out of this chaos to combat this dark threat.

A new faction has arisen to quell the yokai that now threaten the people, they call themselves the Tengoku no Ken or Blade of Heaven. Their leader, Ikejiri Atsukazu, was once a renowned samurai whose lord perished several years ago to a monstrous yokai. His only goal is the elimination of hostile spirits from the mortal realm and protecting the lives of those who cannot fight them. The power to fight the yokai comes from a mysterious resource known only as Amrita, which when absorbed by one's soul can improve their abilities greatly. It is also necessary for each member of the Tengoku no Ken to possess their own guardian spirit, a helpful being that assists with combat. While Oda Nobunaga wages a terrible war across Japan, It is Ikejiri Atsukazu and his demon hunters that will save it from being overrun by monsters.

=============================================================================================================
This role-play is based off the video-game Nioh that takes place in Japan during the one of the bloodiest internal conflicts in Japanese history. Players will take the role of an aspiring demon hunter wishing to join the Tenjoku no Ken and defend the realm from yokai that have risen in the wake of the many conflicts. I will try to stay generally close to the historical events of the time period but I will probably make a few mistakes.

Basically, this is a roleplay about being a demon slayer in medieval Japan with some magical shenanigans. This is just an interest check, so I will add more once I see people would actually like to be a part of this.

Hey quick question, will the Guardian Spirits be only the ones from the game or will we be given some creative freedom? Either or is acceptable, just figured I may as well ask it now.

@Kheliop

It shouldn't be an issue to allow some creative freedom

Hopefully this will get the attention it deserves. There is a chance that the recent issues that have been plaguing the guild have negatively affected your efforts. So once they are resolved I suspect you will get more interest.
