People are disappearing. Normally I wouldn't think that much of it, just some people wanting to go off the grid except........
This city is usually quite peaceful, quiet. I work to keep it that way....... But this, this is just bizarre. There's no pattern, no profile, just a string of random disappearances as if the victims were abducted by aliens. The crime-scenes are all spitting images of the others, door ajar, pool of the victim's blood, TV displaying static, and worst of all....... A bloody serpent manipulated to consume it's own tail, nailed to the door. What's going on? Where are the victims? Are they still alive? Is this the work of some cult? The flashing red lights of the squad cars illuminated the dark, empty front lawn around me, the sound of rain pattering against the rooftops permeated the moist air. One final thought struck me.
..............What do those high-schoolers know that I don't?
OKay, here we are the OOC! Without further ado information dump! But first some obligatory rules.....
Of course there are rules, but I run a pretty laid-back operation.
-Obligatory no godmodding, metagaming etc, etc, you guys know that one.
-This is Casual so no one-liners please.
-If you disappear for more then two weeks without a word to anyone I will continue the RP without you, so if you have a vacation or something coming up just let me know.
-And finally if you guys start fighting, settle it like adults. If I have to get involved things will get ugly.
The place this RP will take place is the city of Hirameki, which I've made up. Hirameki is a large metropolis and it's entire Eastern side is beach and pier space. Most transportation is done by train or car, walking from one side of the city to the other would take an entire day. All of the PCs will be highschool students aged 15-18 most likely, and you all attend Satoru Highschool which is one of the nicer, higher end schools in the city. Hirameki City has a few large mall complexes as well as a few prominent parks and an amusement park which is on the pier.
As for Arcana, I will allow a max of two of the same Arcana. All of them except Jester, Hunger, Judgement, World, and Universe are available to players.
You can also make original Personas so long as they are based off of a mythological figure. Also no original Skills aside from special circumstances later on (*Ahem* Social Links*Ahem*)
There will be Social Links, in a manner of speaking. You will obviously interact with each other and various NPCs throughout the RP. My plan was that as you interact with one another and with these NPCs, you will learn more about each other, grow closer, and become friends. The further along this path you tread, the more benefits will be conferred. These benefits ranging from new abilities for your Persona, maybe stronger elemental resistances, or if the growth is between two PCs, something more. These Social Links are each individual and are only limited by the amount of PCs and NPCs, meaning you can form these bonds with anyone that it makes sense to.
Shadows. In this RP your Shadow isn't what you repress per se. It's what you desire most in the whole-wide world. Think what your greatest desire is, the thing you would give anything to be or have, then subvert and pervert it to the extreme. That is what your shadow is, an extreme manifestation of your desire. Also for all Shadow stuff I would like you to PM them to me and don't post them with the rest your Character Sheet.
I think that's about everything except for the CS which is right here.
