OOC
There are tales of a time when the gods were benevolent and just, when they nurtured and protected mortals in exchange for small showings of tribute and reverence. Nobody remembers those times any more. For as long as anyone can remember, the gods have plagued the world with ferocious beasts and cruel demons. The mortals fought back with their skill, their wit, and their magic, only to be crushed by these merciless forces for whom surrender was not an option.
Some fled the fighting, some were run out of their homes, some simply wandered off where the wind would take them. However, they all ended up here in Kado village, a small recluse deep in the heart of a vast forest. Nobody knew who built or founded the village, but for a time things were peaceful. The forest was bountiful with game and vegetation, and it seemed to be neglected by the wrathful gods. In time, an entire generation was raised that never saw true turmoil. However, things were about to change…

So, welcome one and all! For this RP, I want to give players lots of freedom while still keeping everybody in one place to optimize interactions. Also, as it says in the title, I am heavily inspired by anime, so expect gratuitous amounts of awesome. This will not be an adventure, per se, since it will be taking place within Kado village and it's outskirts, but there is plenty of opportunity for action, rivalries, romance, whatever. I am going to be fairly liberal in terms of playable races as well as magical powers, so long as they are kept in moderation. I also want to really flesh out this village so that while it is only one place it seems like a real community. I'll be making more details if enough people express interest, but feel free to ask any questions you have.
