Link to the OOC



At first glance, Primrose Terrace seems like an ordinary apartment building. Surrounded by a well-maintained garden with a small pond in the corner, its primrose bushes line its borders among the tall trees. The building itself is ten stories high, with a rooftop swimming pool, a luxurious lounge on the ground floor, and of course, fully furnished studio apartments. However, don't let its picturesque appearance fool you...for each of the residents of Primrose Terrace have a secret.

They're not human.


Every few years, a descendant of Yokai is born. It is believed that the family in which they are born, becomes very prosperous. The child is thus heavily protected, and raised in a sheltered environment, for the dangers to its life are many. Not only are their existence from humans to be kept a secret, but they must also be protected from pure-blooded yokai, as these descendants are half-human and not well received by the "supernatural community".

Once they come of age, most of these children choose to live on their own, away from the bindings of their family. However, they could not live anywhere they pleased as the dangers to their life were far too many. Thus, Primrose Terrace came into existence - a high security apartment building where humans with demon/spirit ancestors, or yōkai, reside, each guarded by their own bodyguard.

So, who are you in this story? A bodyguard sworn to protect your partner from harm? A descendant of a yokai just looking to make a life of their own? ...or are you one of the enemy?


I got the idea to make this RP after watching an anime (kudos to you if you can figure out which one xD). This is going to be a fantasy/slice-of-life RP with some action mixed in (in cases where the residents are attacked), but I mostly want to focus on character development.

Notes:

0. For this RP, Yokai is an umbrella term for supernatural beings, and is not limited to Japanese mythological creatures. Information on Yokai: 1, 2, 3
1. The bodyguards are also descendants of yokai, but are of a lower financial/family/clan status than their partners.
2. You can be any mythical creature you want and don't need to know Japanese folklore to participate in this RP. However, please choose a creature that has substantial background information or origins of folklore.
3. You can choose your partner once IC starts. No pairings beforehand (for sake of character development and interaction).
4. The RP is set in modern times. The location is fictional.
5. There will be a maximum of 4 pairings. Any other CS accepted afterwards will be a member of staff (cooks/butlers/maids), an enemy or a human.
6. Note that your interaction with the rest will be limited if you choose to be a non-resident.
7. Romance is encouraged, but please don't pair off into couples when choosing your partner.

I might add more later on. For now, let's see how much interest this gets and if it can be improved upon. :)

Well, I'm certainly interested. Leaning towards a bodyguard Wulver right now, though a werewolf might be easier to go with...

Interested, count me in. I'm looking to be a humanoid descendant of the ancient Griffin being. He would obviously be quite rich.

As a suggestion, it would be nice to add some plot to drive things forward after everyone had the chance to develop their characters and pair up. Maybe an incident at the Terrace? (I know it is waaaaay too early for this, but just thoughts :) )

Interested! I call an Elvish bodyguard. Also I will be making a few changes to the character sheet for myself. All the information will still be there, its just going to be a little easier for me to keep track of things.
