@Cuccoruler: Answers in order.
1. Yes.
2. No.
@VitaVitaAR@Kidd@GreenGoat@MechonRaptor: Since I've hit my target, here you are.
A city like any other.
With people like any other.
This is Yuzoraku City, located on the coast of Chiba Prefecture, Japan. Alive and bustling, the residents who live here do not have any special quirks--they are people, and nothing more.

Or, well, that's how it would seem to be.

Centuries prior, back before the rise of industry or of technology, those beings known as 'youkai' lived among the people. Their home, a world parallel to our own, was connected to this one. Travel was common, and familiarity was commonplace--though most relationships were business-related, if at all, the two worlds acted as if they were two sides of the same coin: separate, but unseparable.

This coexistence broke, however, upon the rise of technology. While many humans embraced that which gave them strength, the youkai were divided in their opinion. Should they remain among these humans, whose unpredictability knew no bounds? Or cut themselves off from their counterpart, forever remaining within their own world?

Unable to come to a unanimous conclusion, the youkai split and fractured--those who wished for the former hid themselves within society, masking their true nature and integrating themselves into that which would become familiar, while the rest remained within their world and lived on there, sealed away under barrier after barrier.

This incident was, ironically enough, what spared 'this' world from the calamity that befell the youkai soon after. A mysterious illness soon swept through 'that' world, corrupting its inhabitants, regardless of if they were human, youkai, or otherwise.

Luckily, with the only way to break the seal being on 'this' side, that illness never crossed over to affect the residents 'here', who remained none the wiser.

The seal within Yuzoraku City, however, is fraying, and most of the residents are none the wiser. With this past having been long since lost to the world and those from the 'other' side slowly finding their way into this world, it is only a matter of time before all hell breaks loose.

Unless it can be stopped, that is.



So... This is an RP inspired by a variety things, but takes particular influence from the Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha games, Bloodborne, Persona 3/4, and Monster Hunter. In essence, the players will be taking up 'missions' to accomplish within this "other world", which itself mimics the city that they live in. All of the player characters within the scope of the RP should be relatively low power at the start, but should gain more strength as the story progresses. More information will be revealed as more problems are handled, but otherwise characters shouldn't know much about the situation at all. Since things are mission based, though I'm gonna be tossing around control of sections at I see fit and will be taking suggestions for future incidents.



For those who are interested, here's a form.

As this is an interest check at the moment, I'm gonna just feel around for people who'd like to join this right now.

I think I'll push an actual thread up after maybe... 4, 5 other people throw their hats into the ring?
@Beloss: Yeah, dw about it I'll handle the results of any attacks.

And... Well, I guess this delay means that I have more time to plan for the future.
@PaulHaynek: Yes.
@ACHTUNG: Early to mid, more like, but magic has taken more precedence over science as the default method for achieving stuff. No guns, though. Yet.
@Beloss: A single wolf is the size of a car and there are 20 of them. Demon beast means that they could probably trample people without giving a damn. Buildings and most walls kinda flop because of the increased resistances, and since magic resistance is also amplified, they're kinda like... Well, speeding tanks. Without guns.

In essence, they're wolves that are bigger, take more damage, dish out more damage, and... There are a lot of them.
@Beloss: N/A. No talking with these guys.
Kamijou Touma


Othinus chose not to comment on Goldibanne's remark, though she found it something of a relief when she seemed to heed the warning that had been set forth. Imagine Breaker was well-known in their world, but here, all bets were probably off about that. If Touma was smart, he'd try to keep that as a trump card as long as he could.

She knew far too well, though, that brains came second to his self-sacrificial desire to save, though. Not the best thing to count on, it was.

"Er... Right," Touma said, finally figuring that Othinus would remain quietly in her own thoughts for a little while longer. "My name is Kamijou Touma, and I'm a student from Academy City. This here is Othinus," he commented, pointing at the little Magic God in question that was sitting on his shoulder.

Before either side could ask any further questions, though, that 'Entertainer' person began to speak. As he continued to talk about the problem that was in front of them all, the young man subconsciously clenched his right hand into a fist, his eyes burning with resolve.

"Oh. Well, at least it's not like the issue with the High Priest this time..." Othinus sighed in exasperation as she massaged her forehead. By now, she could already tell that he was wholly dedicated to joining this whole ordeal.

Well, at least it was better than starving half to death in that dorm of his. With her prior theory about this being 'another world' thus confirmed (though much larger in scope than what her past magic entailed), Othinus opted to remain silent as Touma silently nodded towards the figure.

Not many words were needed after that.


Komeiji Satori

Satori glared at the 'Entertainer' as he began to speak at length about whatever problem he had dragged the group over to handle, and she was none the happier hearing about all of it. She couldn't get a grasp on his mind for some reason, but his monologue was more than enough to parse a summary of the problem.

He messed up, and he brought them over to fix it. Of course it would be a development like that.

The offer of a wish might have been more enticing to some, but for Satori the possible threat to her sister of pets was of a higher priority. While she was almost completely certain that the shrine maiden or the boundary youkai would be able to handle any threats if they actually entered Gensokyo, she couldn't deny the empathy that stuck in her heart.

So, at the very least, she'd participate... On one condition.

"That's fine and all, but you still haven't answered my question about our families and close acquaintances. Won't there be chaos if people begin to spontaneously disappear from existence? Adding to the problem that you've created won't make it smaller, you know," she quipped, crossing her arms as she stared with stone-cold eyes at their "host". "Unless you provide sufficient proof that they won't be wrapped up in any of your side of this problem, I shall assume you have the intent to wrap everyone up in this whole ordeal. After all, you brought this many in already; what is there to stop you from dragging more into what is essentially your personal army of 'volunteers'?"

...Maybe she had been too invested in that story she had been reading before this whole... Thing.
