The Yokai Incident
At the turn of millennium, Japan was struck by a wave of digital interference that caused electronics to go haywire. For three hours following this event, strange beasts appeared all over Japan: From the densely-packed cities to the sparse, open wilderness, with the greatest area affected was Tokyo itself. In those two hours, many people had varying interactions with the phenomenon, Some were rendered comatose as a result of being attacked; others ended up traumatised by the incident, and a few even lost all memory of the event.
In the rarest cases, however, some people managed to form bonds with those strange creatures.

The Present
Ten years have passed since the Yokai Incident, the world has appeared to move on. Those that ended up comatose have yet to wake. To many, the incident remains with them scar in their hearts. There are still those that wish to investigate the incident and its cause, of course, and the recent surge in paranormal activity focused around electronics has only spurred on more curiosity and paranoia.
With every April comes the start of a new school year, in your high school in Shibuya, Tokyo, that does not change. But, perhaps if by fate or by chance, there are others like you present in the same school. Those whom'st encountered these strange creatures in the past, and perhaps have also similiarly formed a bond with you as school friends
Now, with all of you in the same room for detention as a result of something or another, the electronics around the school have begun to act up. With that, the curtains to this incident open, your life is moments away from being changed forever...

OOC
This is a RP inspired by the Digimon Franchise. With the greatest amount of inspiration coming from Digimon Story / Digimon Tamers. In this RP you will take the role of a both a high-schooler (16-18) and their partner Digimon. The majority of Digimon encounters occur within Digital Shifts: A phenomenon where the real world and the Digital World cross over, allowing Digimon to manifest in the real world. The crux of the RP will be finding and dealing with these shifts, while the overarching plot would be all about finding the reason for them... and by extension the reason for the Yokai incident of 10 years earlier!
You'll meet or rather reunite with your Digimon partner within the first shift of the RP, taking place inside the school. From there shifts can either be one large group event, or smaller shifts that need splitting off into groups to deal with. I'd prefer 4-6 players with a minor amount of leeway (if a lot more than this take interest I will take the best sheets)
When it comes to Digimon, you can app any single one! However you'll have to app the Digimon's entire line from Fresh -> Mega. You'll PM me what its line would look like, while putting only the Digivolutions revealed so far (at the start of the rp this will be up to rookie) on the sheet. Besides this all Digimon are tentatively legal for application. (If there is any issue with mega/ultimate, I'll inform you in response)
