@Keksalot T'sup Keks.

[Keksalot]

Hanged can vouch for me as for the best player ever, btw.
I am going to try and make a changeling prince of the winter or autumn court. Every class needs some snooty royalty.

Kurou and Shizu Yoshikage

Kurou and Shizu

Height
5'9"/5'4
Age
19

Gender
Both

Race
Jinyou, descended from Ushi-oni

Power
Enhanced Physiology - The twins own a body that is capable of feats well beyond human capability, such as enhanced strength, speed, stamina, and reflexes.

Jinyou Physiology - Because of their heritage, the twins share a single "instance" and only one can physically "exist" at a given time. This essentially means they share a body, however that body is altered depending one which twin is in control at the time to fit their gender. They suffer no physical consequences not sleeping, but still do so anyways, leaving at least one twin awake at any given time.

Personality

Kurou

The brawns of the two. Most likely to take offence at large words.

The brother of the twins is both less intelligent and less mature than his sister. Kurou is not particularly booksmart unlike his sister nor is he capable of keeping his cool all the time. He is not, however, without his boons. He is a relatively easy-to-approach and kind person, so long as you don't set him off. For the most part, he does not discriminate except in the case of ghosts, but that is merely because of trauma he received when he was younger.

Unfortunately, Kurou is very susceptible to getting riled up and once he does, it does take a minute or two to regain his calm. He takes a lot of insults personally and sometimes will even anger when hearing words he doesn't understand because he assumes them to be some form of insult or another. He might even mishear things and get angry. He heavily dislikes talking about his own mental ability when compared to his sister, who is more or less a genius.

Despite some insecurities, he does love his sibling very much.

Shizu

The brains of the two. Most likely to be caught reading a book.

If it weren't for the fact that she shared a body with her brother, Shizu would likely have grabbed a higher position on the student council. She is the polar opposite of her brother when it comes to brains over brawn, and is constantly scoring at the top when it comes to tests. She has a very calm and friendly demeanor and is very willing to help anybody who needs it, should she be capable of doing so. Most would say she is a reliable person.

She is a very responsible young adult who is often tasked with the cleanup of whatever antics her brother gets into, be it literally or not. Housework and cooking at the home tend to be thrust onto her, though she does not mind the latter of the two. Shizu has an obvious fear of touching other people, but oddly does not mind being touched herself (at least as much as anybody else, would not suggest groping her, Life).

Likewise, she loves her brother dearly.

Background

The early life of the twins was a rather difficult experience due to the fact that a Jinyou had not been born into the family in many generations, to the point where it had been forgotten that such blood existed within the family. This caused quite a stir when their mother found a baby boy when there should have been a baby girl in the crib, about two weeks after birth.

It is likely that this strange phenomenon had occurred long before then, but nobody had noticed it until now. Research into possible causes had led them to discovering that the father of the baby had the blood of a youkai and he had passed this onto the baby, creating the first Jinyou of its kind in many, many years.

Shizu and Kurou had to learn to adapt to sharing a body, and that was difficult growing up. Because they were kids, it was quite unsettling to wake up to find bruises or scrapes you don't remember getting, and if one twin was punished for being bad, then both had to be. This was on top of the discrimination that both siblings suffered for being something that wasn't human. Of course not everybody discriminated against them for being a youkai, but those who did not often still held a grudge against one twin or the other merely for taking their friend away, which wasn't something they could prevent. The twins dealt with the bullying in their own ways. Shizu removed herself from the situations she found herself in, opting to read books and study, while Kurou dealt with people head on, usually scaring them off.

Perhaps they were bullied because the children feared the unknown? Who knows.

It really did not help them that they were alone most of the time. Though their parents probably loved them, Kurou and Shizu were left alone quite often, as their parents were required to travel to different countries most of the time. The only people the twins could rely on were each other. Kurou was Shizu's best friend and Shizu was Kurou's best friend. It hurt, however, that they couldn't see or hug each other, and talking was fairly hard to do unless they were alone. For one twin to speak to the other was not impossible. It was true only one could control the body at a given time, yes, but by entering a state where they shut out everything else, much akin to meditation, they could speak to each other. Alternatively, they could always write notes for the other to read once they awoke.

As time passed by, it began to seem as if the rest of the world grew alongside Kurou and Shizu. People matured and stopped discriminating against the twins for their inability to be separate. Kurou began gaining friends and was able to play even sports without worry, though he definitely had to learn how to hold himself back against his non-demi friends. Shizu enjoyed reading and found a few friends who were both as diligent as she had become and also enjoyed reading. There was a few years of their life where everything was going pretty smoothly, if you ignore Kurou's lowish grades. This was until Shizu was involved in an incident that led to her fear of touching people, and less importantly, where Kurou gained his fear of ghosts.

The incident itself was not very complicated, you see. A friend intended to give Shizu a small jumpscare at a rumored haunted house. She had decided to do so because Kurou had been lured into the place by his own friends and apparently met a ghost or something and had run out of the place in a panic, eventually running out of steam and fainting. Shizu being the more reasonable of the two, repeatedly said there was nothing to be scared of and bravely stated she would walk through the house just to prove her brother was being overly dramatic. Even if there was a ghost, why would it be mean to anybody?

Shizu... was not the bravest girl in the world once she stepped into the house. Surely there was nothing like a ghost in here that would actually harm people, right? Right?! As she became more and more nervous, one of her friends decided she would hop out from the corner Shizu was about to turn and scare her.

Bad move.

In her frightened state, Shizu let loose a startled punch that sent her friend flying, and as it turns out, breaking quite a few bones. Ultimately, her friend recovered after some time in the hospital, and that very same friend forgave her entirely. But Shizu was terrified at the idea that she might accidentally do that again, or cause an even worse accident. From that day forth, Shizu refuse to touch anybody else.

And also Kurou became spooked by ghosts.

There's really nothing too interesting after this point, as aside from the obvious bumps in the road they share, the twins have been doing their best to grow up. There's a few feelings of inadequacy from Kurou and the absolute fear of hurting someone from Shizu, but nothing too special. A certain school for demis just happens to be something along their way.

Theme

Couldn't find anything

[Traitor]

I have one interest in this.

It seems a teensy weensy bit crowded-as-hell at this point so I'm not quite sure if you can/want to handle another entry, but if you do I would totally throw up a fairly batshit crazy CS.

[Zaxter996]

Definitely interested in this! So if you're still accepting, I'll submit a character ASAP!

[Melpaws]

This is getting quite a bit of attention :3 Nice.

[KoL]

@liferusher

I'll see about having something for you tomorrow or so, if I can get a good idea. Let's hope that this will work in a more orderly pace than the previous one.

Also, while slice-of-life is perfectly good and fine, the story needs to have some meat to bite, or else it feels empty.

Considering this RP's proposal, have you ever thought about taking a bit of inspiration in Charlotte? This seems to be possible to do on this one. This is just a suggestion, though but the despair route is always nice.

[demonspade64]

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss event; Small minds discuss people: is a quote that talks about people.

I'm going to post my cs soon.

[TheWendil]

I'll guess I'll make a CS later.

[DELETED7282737]

@TheHangedMan driving people insane can only be applied to weak willed people who are willing to give in, add that and you're free to go.

@liferushersnuggles of course

@Caits

Finally my CS is finished. How about this?

Lily Flameheart



Height
5'2

Age
16 in human years

Gender
Female

Race
Poison Dragon

Power
Human Form
Looks like a normal girl but with a strength of double of your ordinary male human

Half-Dragon Form
She grows dragon wings and tails. Her nails sharpen, and she is now able to puke out acid from her mouth. She's able to fly with those wings and her strength is now five times of your ordinary human.

Dragon Form
She turns back into her original dragon form. Standing ten meters tall, she is now able to create strong gusts of wind by her now giant wings. Her acid can now travel far further than when she was just a half-dragon. She would rarely use this form however, with how unwieldy it is. That, and how she would lose her clothes when she transforms, making her naked if she reverts to her human form.

Personality

Silent but haughty, her dragon blood makes her prideful and easily irritable by people she doesn't like. However, once she finds a really worthy friend, she will never abandon them. Problem is, no one has really got into that special club yet. At least, except for that one boy that is.

Background

She was born in a mountain range somewhere in a distant countryside. Her family had always been the guardian of the area, and a result, nearby villagers would periodically give them offerings and the like. She herself would often turn into her human form and walk around in the villages, observing the humans whom she found quite interesting.

One day, she found a boy being punched and kicked by other boys. When she asked what was going on, they said it was none of her business and that a little girl like her should just stay out of it. Of course, this lit her temper, and she ended up saving the boy by knocking out one of the bullies with just a single punch to his stomach.

She ended up befriending the boy, and so their friendship grew over the years. The boy, of course, didn't know that she was the daughter of the guardian dragons of the village. His innocent mind just thought of her as some odd girl with odd clothing from outside the village. Their friendship was more of her bossing him around, saying how he should be stronger and braver. Her dragon nature couldn't tolerate weakness after all.

Their happy days would not last however, since the boy had an uncurable terminal illness ever since he was born. One day, the boy stopped coming, and then she found out that he had passed away, his dream of going into the city unfulfilled. For the first time in her life, she felt a sad emptiness inside her chest.

And so, in honor of her friend, she enrolled in the academy. She wanted to know just what the boy found so attractive about the city.

Likes
Watching people from a distance
Wandering around looking at things
Solitude

Dislikes
Being underestimated
Useless chatter, especially with someone she doesn't like
Being in an embarrassing situation. Her pride simply could not take it.

@Hammerman

accepted, don't know how tall all dragons are but in my perspective she is a little tall >w<

How do you think that would work? I mean adding quirks too every character now would be a bit insane I think.

I'll guess I'll make a CS later.

@liferusher

No, no, I didn't meant that part. I was talking about a more sinister plot going in the background, since you've mentioned that there's still quite a lot of distrust toward anything supernatural. So, maybe there could be some baddies out there to add some tension later on.

That said, since learning to use powers is part of the story, I already think that everyone is a bit quirky already, in a way or another.

I'll get a character up sometime today

@KoL

Yea I thought it would be pretty cool to have some underground facility under the school with like stuff you aren't allowed to see but that would somewhat end the rp when that is solved hehe. A bit too much for a slice of life. Still adding baddies around the perimeter kidnapping students would be pretty rad XD

@liferusher

You could just add on more threats once the facility is over with. And I sense KoL will enjoy that latter option immensely.
