[OOC] Imaginary District: Youkai, Magic, and Youth, An Urban Fantasy RP

[Temporary]

@VitaVitaAR Thats correct.

[VitaVitaAR]

@Vocab: Alright, then, accepted.

[Cinderella Man]

Still here. Probably wasn't a great idea to sleep as long as I did, though.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Hmm....tossing in my interest! Supernatural Urban fantasy is cool.

I shall make an Oni I think. Might change, but I think I'ma do that.

[GamerXZ]

Gotta say, this looks interesting. Urban Fantasy has always been a favorite of mine when it comes to stories in general so I'll definitely consider this one. I mean, I'm into several other RPs right now but, meh, I could probably squeeze in one more XD

Now assuming I don't get distracted or start procrastinating, maybe I'll be able to pull together a character sheet XD

[VitaVitaAR]

I'm really happy to see all the interest.

This setup has the same trappings as my usual urban fantasy, but with greater flexibility since there's no secrecy in the Imaginary district. So I'm looking forward to seeing what people do.

[Dash375]

Name: Seth Hayate
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance:

Seth

Personality: Due to being an outcast in this world for a majority of his life Seth is a somewhat more distant and cautious person not telling anyone more than they need to know about himself, especially the true secret behind his ability. However, when around someone Seth considers to be a friend the change in him is quiet significant as he drops his guard and becomes a much more open chatty almost too talkative person as if he was trying to make up for lost time.

Abilities: Due to a necklace Seth wears he can manipulate air around him to a certain extent. Since Seth only recently obtained this ability its power is still fairly weak but over the year Seth has had it he learnt how to detect changes in air currents within a certain range acting as a sort of sonar which can be expended upon depending on how hard he is concentrating at the time. He can also send blasts of wind outwards through punches and kicks though gets weaker the further is travels making it most effective at close range.

Skills:
- A proficiency in kickboxing from going to clubs when growing up but nothing close to a professional level
- Decent cooking skills since he had to cook meals for both himself and his Grandfather growing up.

Equipment:
- His necklace from his Grandfather which allows him to control wind
- A pair of goggles to keep wind out of his eyes which is useful due to his inexperience with his ability

Brief Backstory:
Born first into his family Seth was expected to have inherited his parents Wind magic traits but by the age of 3 no such trait showed itself and he was just normal, a normal human in a world surrounded by people who could do amazing things, where humans and non humans walked the streets. Needless to say he was shunned by a most of the world but not least of all by his family whose second son was born by the time Seth was 8 and possessed his parents traits and hence took up most of his mother's and farther's time.

Seth was sent away from his family's house once he hit 11 to go live with his Grandfather to keep him out of the way and attended school like normal person and even there performed average in grades, not terrible but not good enough to make anyone notice. At the age of 18 Seth finished school and was left with few options outside of getting a job to trying to live a normal life. None of his family came to celebrate his graduation apart from his Grandfather who gave him a gift a necklace and told him his secret, he too possessed no magical trait but had used this item instead to fool people and passed it onto Seth as a gift. A few weeks later his Grandfather past away and Seth lost contact with his real family as he had no desire to meet those who had thrown him out and joined the Miura Youth Organisation as a way to practice his new ability and prove himself.

@liferusher: I don't mind at all, and thank you!

[Azereiah]

Yo, there any restrictions on character age for this? :P

For the Youth Organization, there is. They've got to be teens at most.

[Azereiah]

@VitaVitaAR

Alright. Then I take it police characters and/or other community members are also acceptable. :P

[VitaVitaAR]

They are, yes.

[Rune_Alchemist]

@VitaVitaAR

Annnd here's the Oni. Do tell if there are problems, or that if anything needs to be changed~

Shina

Name:
Shina Tanizaki

Age:
55, (Looks 18, in human years)

Gender:
Female

Race:
Oni

Appearance:
Standing at a rather impressive five foot eight on the human scale, Shina is actually probably pretty small when compared to most other Oni. She sports long, bright red hair, pale skin on an overall average, but fairly muscular frame. She has pointed ears, along with two sharp horns growing out of her forehead. She has bright red eyes which resembles a serpents with vertical slits. When she smiles, sharp pointed canines can be seen. Most would probably consider the girl and her modest assets fairly attractive.

Most of the time, she wears Japanese inspired clothing.

Personality:
Shina is well...a fairly friendly person, having been around awhile. Though, hot headed and aggressive in most of her mannerisms. She likes fighting and will never back down from a good challenge or fight from anyone. That said, she's also stubborn and tends to be a bit on the antagonistic side whenever it comes to anyone who has a differing opinion on things than she. Outside of such things, she loves drinking making merry, and generally being all around a good natured person. You know, as long as you don't piss her off then you'll be fine or are a human that can prove that they aren't some weak little squishy thing. Tends to be rather impatient and can't sit still for extended periods of time.

Smokes a Kiseru and drinks enough alcohol to kill a small animal. Doesn't like losing, though is usually a good sort about it as long as no one cheats and its done fair and square.

Abilities:
Oni Strength:
As an Oni, she can pull off super human feats of strength that would dwarf most other men. Of course, she does have an upper limit in her current form. Despite being a little over half a century old, she's not exactly a fairly powerful Oni. Her current limit, is about a thousand pounds, or half a ton. Meaning, if you get smashed by an attack from her, you gon get rekt.

Oni Durability:
Her skin is also naturally durable and resistant to forms of damage. It's not going to be stopping a bullet or something of course, but its equivalent to a light suit of armor.

Oni Endurance/Regeneration:
She can also shrug off injuries at times. While things guaranteed to kill will likely still harm and or kill her, unless its a directly fatal blow there's a good chance she'll simply shrug off whatever damage was inflicted to her. Well, of course blood loss and multiple injuries are definitely a thing. She can also heal at a faster rate than humans, though its nothing that's going to be completely noticeable in combat.

Skills:
Martial Artist:
Shina has mastered several forms of martial arts over the years, and mainly focuses on brutal, fast attacks designed to incapacitate opponents in a single blow. That said, this is far from her favored form of attacking as it is close range and means she's quite open despite her awesome legs and impressive physical strength.

Kanabo Master:
Most of the time, she uses her favored Kanabo in combat. This spiked club is a force to be reckoned with, and with her strength can easily topple the strongest of creatures. Often times, she mixes martial arts with the use of this club for devastating attacks.

Equipment:
Kanabo - the weapon is heavy, nearly weighing an incredibly heavy twenty pounds, and built specifically for Oni to wield. It honestly might be better to call this a giant slab of spiked steel. She can wield it one handed easily enough, but unless a human had superhuman strength, most would likely have to wield it two handed to wield it effectively.

bladed Kiseru - used as a back up, always has it on her.

Brief Backstory:
Born some odd fifty or so years ago to a clan of rather aggressive Oni, Shina has had a fairly...normal life growing up. Well, normal for an Oni at least. Her childhood? It consisted mostly of fighting, drinking, and generally learning the most effective way of pummeling something to a goddamn bloody pulp followed by drinking her weight in alcohol. Then sleeping until morning, and then repeat. This was well, most of her life for quite a long time. For the first twenty or so years of it, until she decided to do as any Oni eventually did, go seek out greater challenges for greater strength.

Thankfully, with the Imaginary district that was an easy task to accomplish. There was no shortage of enemies and willing opponents she could test her strength against. To this day, these clashes cause no end of trouble for the authorities as any physical battle with an Oni is bound to get just a tad bit violent and sometimes even destructive against one who doesn't know how to hold back. Now that she's aged a bit (well, aged as far as humans go) she's calmed down a bit and has for the most part stopped actively causing trouble.

Of course, if a strong little something catches her eye, she just can't help to challenge it to a fight.

[VitaVitaAR]

She looks fine, accepted.

[DELETED7282737]
