The Tower of Babel goes both ways



May 1st, A Sunday, the day after the national holiday of Showa Day, in the city of Tokyo in the Shinjuku ward. You and a small handful of others had brought into a circulating Rumour amongst the people of Tokyo about a website that you could only access with a specific url. Forum trawling and asking about, you managed to acquire the URL to the stream. It was a simple black website with nothing but the video feed staring blankly at an non-descript apartment wall. There was no text chat to speak of. For the most part this is how the stream had looked for the longest time. Until tonight.

There would be a backlight lighting up on the stream. A heavy sigh would occur, perhaps waking you up from dozing off from how dull the stream had been. The man would cough slightly as if to clear his throat. He would begin to speak his face obscured from view as he would be sitting behind the camera that would be staring at the back wall. He would begin to speak in a very rigid dialect it was clear Japanese that was to be said for sure but his words did not flow. It was as if he was predicating over his pronunciation of each word over each and every deliverance of syllable.

"Hello, Watchers and Observers, The Salvation is at hand, the pure shall be saved and we will soon be united in a joyful bliss in the bosom of the creator above. Though we are all not yet saved. While us faithful wait for our own salvation, I will decree the names of those known to you that will be saved."

He would begin a long process of listing names of listing the first to be saved and their times of death. The stream would showcase the profiles of the victims specifically his names would only appear to be people you would know, you may recognise a few from work, or from around the place Perhaps even from school some were said to die early in the morning, others late in the afternoon. The largest amount being at 11:59pm Monday May 2nd. Perhaps this was some kind of ARG? Or the delusional speakings of a crazy man. One could of easily wrote off the entire thing as just some sick practical joke though it seemed so elaborate for the names of each person on every stream would only be someone that person knew. Some people got next to no names others would have an incredibly packed list but even this overwhelming information would prepare nobody for what would happen next.

Suddenly Homes would go dark, and yet would still be illuminated. By Light coming from behind curtains or through slivers of windows. Light so intense that it cast no shadow, Salvation had come and thought it took none from the city of Tokyo, the rest couldn't be said for the world outside. Tokyo was now trapped within an ethereal barrier of light. That after its initial conception would dimmed to provide no more light then the light of the moon. This ghostly barrier that extend up towards the heavens.

<Enoch's Ascent has been installed> Your phone would ping after the stream had concluded. The only light left in your once again darkened home.

The 9 million of Tokyo had become trapped like Rats within a cage. But the trapping was not the only concern. For now creatures had begun to manifest in the streets, Demons that would terrorise those that had been left behind. The World had ended on the turn of a Sunday, going onto a Monday. 00.00am Monday the 2nd. Constitution day. The day the world ended. The day your fight for survival began.





Hee ho there friend, and welcome to the interest check for this here Devil Survivor RP. Firstly a few things out of the gate, I will be capping this roleplay at five players, anything more and the mechanical complexity becomes a bit too much to properly handle. Secondly the RP has a in-roleplay time limit of seven days (matching the games that inspired this rp to take place) meaning players will be fully attempting to maximise what they do each day, while also attempting to defeat the 'boss' of that day as they hunt closer to try to find the source of what did this. All while averting their own deaths and the deaths of those around them through the use of Demons. Mechanics are used to allow players to improve themselves as the st ory progresses from gaining new skills, to upgrading your starting demons

If this feels up your alley and your up for a roleplay where you will progress in both strength and character then welcome to RP

Name Haruki Kawaguchi
Age 20
Appearance
Personality Haruki wants power and he doesn't care if it comes physical strength, connections, money or whatever. He doesn't just want power for the sake of power though. Having experienced what it's like to be judged for something that isn't your fault he has decided not only to never go through that again but also to own up to his mistakes. He tries not to judge people based on first impressions or flimsy evidence but still struggles with it from time to time.

History Haruki's grandfather was Chief Financial Officer for a major company. Unfortunately after his death it was found that he embezzled a lot of money, Haruki's father who had gotten a job at the same company thanks to connections was immediately fired and had to sell off most of his stuff to even start paying the company back. the family still ended up heavily in debt at the bank and both his parents worked themselves to the bone to make sure Haruki didn't get saddled with their problems.

As a result he never went to college and instead took a job after high school, eventually moving to Tokyo where he was mostly unknown and the actions of his grandfather didn't really affect his changes of getting a job. Six months after moving to Tokyo and having found a job as a mechanic and a roommate to help with the rent he started going to night school.

Unfortunately he couldn't pick a very prestigious night school or try and study for a job in business since his grandfather's actions still negatively affected some corporations in Tokyo. On the other hand as far as he was aware no one with a grudge against his family realized he moved or that he has plans to one day start his own garage if he ever gets enough money

Name:
Nakagawa Sato

Age:
25

Appearance:


Personality:
Nakagawa can described as someone with incredibly low standards towards life, in other words he's pessimistic. He downplays everything he could do and lumps as something someone could better than he could ever do. Every bad thing that happens to him he takes into stride and contributes that he somehow factored into the problem, no matter how ridiculous it is. That being said, he tends to not interfere with other people's business and keep his problems to himself.

Due to his upbringing, Nakagawa tends to observe people a little too much. It comes with the front of assuming someone wants something whenever they come over and fearing what they may think of him. Because of this nature he has to evaluate his relationships to determine how stable it is and to continue being acquaintances and become a little suspicious on what others are doing. Regardless of what he feels, he'll set aside those feelings and give people a chance before completely giving up on them.

History:

Nakagawa grew to fear other people's intentions. Due to an accident that happened prior to his birth, one of his mother's friends swindled her and took a great sum of money, his mother had become greatly paranoid. Not wanting her son to commit the same as she did, she taught him to fear other people, to tell them nothing, and to observe them thoroughly. As a young child, the doctrine of paranoia easily seeped into his brain and made him paranoid of other people when he grew older.

As he grew, he became more cautious when it came to interacting with people. As such, when he had friends he constantly looked out for any hints that their relationship was bad and kept his guard up, revealing little to nothing about his family or himself. Then entered in Azumi, who would whittle her way into his heart. Azumi went against everything that his parents ever taught him. Helping others, telling them about little bits of information regarding herself and her family, and hanging out with them.

Nakagawa was confused by her behavior and tried to keep himself out of her affairs, yet she befriended him anyways. While he wasn't against making friends and hanging out with him during school, Azumi was on a whole new level. She constantly invited him whenever she and her friends were going out, gave him money whenever he was a few short, and later on in their friendship told him several personal secrets. Nakagawa told her nothing about himself. Yet, he felt happy rather than confused. To be trusted to this extent even though he was, in his thoughts, a stranger made him feel happy. They continued hanging out together and eventually, Nakagawa began to develop feelings for her.

Though, these feelings were kept locked in his heart. Having no confidence himself and being the secretive boy he still was for his entire life, he could only watch as she got herself a boyfriend and seemed happier with him. This betrayal would eventually made him saddened, causing him to vanish after high school. Regret only filled his mind as he mindlessly work to get a degree in his university and then get a job at an IT company. From there, he decided to try his hand again at friendship and often discusses hardware and software over the internet.

Oh, also, I'm not Charak but I think it'd be a good idea if some of the characters knew each-other in some way from before the RP starts. Not everyone, of course, but it'd be a good thing to have maybe an established group of "friends" as that makes it easier to form a party around. It also ties in with how DeSu actually does things, because almost every character has some knowledge of each-other in some way. To map it out:

DeSu1 has Yuzu knowing Gin, Gin knowing Haru, and Haru knowing Yuzu. Yuzu is connected to the MC and Atsuro, who are both connected to Naoya. Atsuro is also connected to Keisuke, and the both of them know Midori. Kaido and Mari know each-other.

DeSu2 has the MC and Daichi start off as friends while Io is their classmate. JP's, obviously, has all the staff knowing each-other (Yamato, Makoto, Otome, Fumi). Ronaldo also knows Yamato. Keita is associated with JP's before you meet him, as are Airi and Jungo. Then outliers are Joe, who mistakes the MC for a guy he saw around once, and Hinako who's completely detached from everyone. As an aside, Ronaldo is also sort of connected to Airi but neither of them know it.

Name: Sunohara Reina
Age: 18
Appearance: "I suppose this is a nice a day as any for a stroll."
Personality: Though not particularly introverted, Reina prefers to juggle a delicate balance of social time to a lack thereof. Spending time around others, as fun as it may be every so often, ends up a bit draining, to the point where she could just as easily end up crashing for the rest of the night after getting home. Above all else, though, she keeps a cool head regardless of what she ends up involved in, even if she may appear to get caught up in the heat of the moment. That is a different matter from playing along with those she is close to, of course, and she is quite apt to do so if the mood is right.
When put under pressure, though, Reina does not become "angry" or "panic"; rather, her sharp tongue and sardonic wit bubble up from the depths of her own subconscious, striking out at anyone that catches her ire. Even so, she does not waver in pursuit of her own solutions if she thinks it necessary, and will waste no time attempting to rein in a situation out of her control so long as she believes it can be resolved with what she has at hand. If not, well...
She'll find a way. Probably
History: To say that Reina's childhood was anything special would be a bald-faced lie... At least, according to her interpretation of things. She grew up in a stable household, and with good grades and a group of friends who stuck through with her throughout most of her early childhood. Of course, some came and went, but that was to be expected. Nothing, after all, was forever.
In high school, however, Reina had found herself becoming more accustomed to people 'growing up', as it were. The disillusionment with those she was close to and those they ended up involved with caused her to grow a bit more cynical, though she could never bring herself to fully separate from those around her. Her fresh arrival in university brought with it both the possibility of starting anew and, in some ways, a subtle hope that her own assumptions were misguided.
