"A long, long time ago, we gods came to this world. The world of you, our children, seeking excitement. And we decided that we would live here with you forever in the lower world. We decided to seal away our divine power, and enjoy life with all the hardship and inconvenience that it entails. We can offer you only one thing: the power to fight monsters, what we call our blessing. The children given this power become our servants, our familia."
"When you’re just starting out, put all your energy into surviving. No matter how pathetic you feel, or how people laugh at you, if you come back alive, you win.”
The grand city of Rezion. The city of adventurers. People across the land come seeking adventure, glory, wealth, and a place to call home. Authority of the city rests in the hands of the Guild, a organization headed by the powerful Izanagi familia. They do their best to maintain order as well as oversee the dungeon that lies at the heart of the city, the source of the city's prosperity. Those wishing to obtain a piece of that wealth first need to join one of the many familia that exist within the city, some more powerful than others. However, the dungeon is not for the soft of heart or the weak of will. The dungeon will challenge adventurers from the very first floor and it is not uncommon for new adventurers to meet their ends on the first few floors. Of course, the dungeon is not the only attraction within the city's walls. There exists a number of master artisans and craftsmen, musicians and actors, as well as doctors and inventors. The bounty of the dungeon provides for many, but at a great risk.
One of the the familias within Rezion is the Amaterasu Familia. Early in the city's history the familia was quite prominent and well-respected. However, as time passed the familia grew smaller and smaller as people drifted from the ideals the goddess championed until only one member was left: a wise and loyal adventurer by the name of Solome. Blindness and age had stopped him from venturing into the dungeon but he made it his mission to recruit new members into the familia that had given him everything. His efforts were not in vain as he managed to find promising, aspiring adventurers that had what it took to bring the familia back to greatness.
Time will only tell if these new adventurers can save the familia from ruin. First, they must survive the trials of the dungeon for it does not take pity on no one. The dungeon is even more dangerous than normal with reports of strange anomalies occurring on a more regular basis. It is a phenomenon that the even the top familias have yet to understand. No matter the circumstances, it is the destiny of adventures to venture into the depths of the dungeon. Through your struggles, you shall find the strength to persevere.
Welcome to Rezion, Adventurer.
First, thank you for taking the time to look at this interest check. This RP is an alternate universe take on the DanMachi series, also know as 'Is it Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?'. Players will starts as new adventurers recruited into the Amaterasu Familia and will have to work hard to increase their own power as well as the power of the Familia. As of now, there are only to be four spots for players in order to keep things more manageable for myself. I currently have the rough skeleton of the world written down but I'm waiting to see if people are interested.
