The Demon Slaying Corps have accomplished their mission, Kibutsuji Muzan has been destroyed and the demons that remain throughout Japan are beginning to run thin. The age of Demons fearing Humans is over, and now the only thing left to do is to purge Japan of those that remain.
Or so you would think.
It is the dawn of the Shōwa period and with imperialism on the upswing the emperor has caught wind of the secret organization and wishes to assimilate them into the Imperial Japanese Army. The Ubuyashiki Family wishes to retain the tradition of being independent of military control. Not only this, but a schism itself has formed within the Demon Slaying Corps itself. While there are many who with lasting grudges against demons for slaughtering their families and loves ones, there are some who believe that there may be a possibility that some of the remaining demons may not need to be slain. This divide within the corps has caused a schism between those who wish to fully eradicate the demons from this world, and those who wish to allow non-malevolent demons to live out the rest of their long-long life.

_____________________________________________________________________

The Demon Slaying Corps : 鬼き殺さつ隊たい

The name of an organization that has existed since ancient times, dedicated to protecting humanity from Demons. There are hundreds of Demon Slayers within the organization and have as of yet been recognized by the government of Japan, but steps are being taken to change this. Demon Slayers are primarily hand-selected by a master who is currently enlisted, or was prior enlisted in the Corps, however there are instances of those who hail from families that served the organization over several generations being brought upon Final Selection nonetheless. Upon the completion of Final Selection, a student is brought to the summit of Fujikasane where they choose the ore used to create their Nichirin Sword and are gifted a Kasugai Crow. Their prime directive was previously to seek out and destroy Kibutsuji Muzan, but after his downfall at the hands of one of the Pillars the goal of the organization seems to be vague at this point.
_________________________________________________________________________
The Imperial Japanese Army : 大日本帝國陸軍

With the growing movement of Ultra-Nationalism in Japan the people would transition away from the artistic free-thinking of past eras instead local leaders, such as mayors, teachers, and Shinto priests were recruited by the various movements to indoctrinate the populace under these ideals. They had little time for the pragmatic ideas of the business elite and party politicians. Their loyalty was practically to the Emperor and the military. With this harsh and hardened political state the militarism of the country would have it's own renaissance as soon-near wars would witness the newfound strength of a unified Japan. The spread of military presence can be felt throughout all of Japan, and would-be prospects for the Demon Slaying Corps have even been poached from their masters for the war machine themselves.
_________________________________________________________________________
Shingetsu : 新月

To counteract the continued state of animosity towards demons within Japan, an organization known as Shingetsu has emerged out of the darkness to protect demons deemed innocent from harm. The members of this group are both human and demon and range from the power of a Mizunoto all the way up to that of a Pillar. While Shingetsu's existence is known both to the Demon Slaying Corps and the upper echelons of the Japanese Imperial Army, the members of this organization have kept their identities safely hidden. It is believed even by the current Ubuyashiki that leads the Demon Slaying Corps that one, if not multiple pillars may be a part of this group without his knowledge. Because of this knowledge being readily known within the Corps there is a constant air of distrust between comrades all the way up the ranks even to the Pillars themselves, unknowing of who was a traitor, and who would live up to the symbol painted upon their back. "Destroy."

This is quite obviously a Demon Slayer AU, and thus no canonical characters will be accepted. To follow up on this, characters like Muzan and Kagaya did exist in this universe though the relationships and characters they interacted with in canonical media will not. They lived, they played an important role in establishing the grounds for wish this AU will be moving forward with- lets carry on now.

Kimetsu no Yaiba: Shingetsu will be the story of how the Demon Slaying Corps would move forward from the defeat of their greatest enemy, the changing times and people of Japan, and the self-evaluation of their purpose moving on from this. While the manga/anime of Kimetsu no Yaiba tells the story of a boy climbing the ranks of the Corps, defeating the Twelve Demon Moons, and the struggle to change his sister back into a human, this will differ greatly from the source focusing slightly less on monster-slaying and more so on the inner workings of the organization itself.

What I'll be looking for in this roleplay is characters with something to contribute to the world created. Not only this but diversity in upbringing, strengths and weaknesses, and other things will also be factored in. But while it may seem like I may be looking for something too specific, I doubt that will be the case as this RP is meant to host a medium-to-large sized cast of characters.

Basic rules of normal RP will be enforced, I shouldn't need to go over the whole shabang of "No Meta-Gaming/Picking Fights OOC, Respect the GM, Coordinate for Collaborations, etc. etc." just use your common sense, that's my mindset when it comes to this.

But yeah, if you're interested to entertain this Interest Check. Throw interest at it and see what happens, why not?

Well this hit my interest quota, so I'll begin working on the OOC and have it up by tonight or tomorrow.

@manchild 10/10 name, thank you for your interest.
@Jacky I am a cool idea person, that's as far as I go.
@Indra Indra, like Indra Otsutsuki? Thank you for the interest!
@Aeolian Cheers and thank you as well!
@Zoey White You are always welcome, though I do recommend giving the anime a try it is superb.

Also, to give anyone interested something to play with.


This is what I have planned for the Character Skeleton so far, some small things may change. If you prefer to format it your own way- perfectly fine! Just make sure that the important stuff I have listed is on there.

As long as it roots from from one of the original five breathing styles it checks out!

I'll be needing your guidance then, all the more. Can I just say ice is a derivative of water?
I'll finish sheet in less than 48 hours.

What do you think? Anything I should change or add? This is just a first draft after all



Breath of Wind is a canon fighting style, but Rising Updraft and Cross Slash Hurricane are moves I came up with to give her a bit more personal flair. I did some research on the show, but obviously I'm very open to criticism.

The art is based off someone named Ayame from Tenchu, I never played it but I like the design so I went with it.
