Red/Brown - Land of Earth | Yellow - Kyokujitsu no Tochi | Blue - Land of Water | Purple - Island Nations


For many hundreds of years, the major nations of the world had lived in relative peace. It was a time that people had believed they had learned from their mistakes of the past, but it was naivety at its finest. The incredible precautions taken after the Demon Wars had lulled everyone into a false sense of security and it was even despite those precautions that all of the nations were brought to their knees.

Each year, the bijuu would be placed within vessels decided upon by the Kage, which would be kept under close watch by an independent organization supported by all 5 of the nations, which was mostly comprised of former jinchuuriki. The vessels were often children, often very young, as they had not been imprinted with strong national pride. However, the Kazekage would betray the very treaty that had established this practice, having developed an newly advanced form of transformation technique that allowed them to bypass the many safeguards that had been established and deceiving the many sensors. The spy, however, was unable to control the bijuu that was placed within him and the demon quickly took control. In an ironic twist, the Kazekage was the first, and only, Kage slain at the Summit, an irony furthered by the fact the Land of Wind was the Summit's host and had been poised to contain the bijuu. However, it was not his death that was the important one, but the death of the children put forth as Vessels. All were slain, and soon, the bijuu descended upon the world with an unprecedented ferocity. Unbridled, the bijuu made short work of the Hidden Sand and the Land of Wind as a whole.

The Kage that escaped quickly met in the Land of Fire to develop a strategy. However, the bijuu had quickly began to spread outside of the Land of Wind. The Land of Earth's skilled border guard shielded their nation from much of the destruction, but funneled the beasts towards the smaller border nations, many which were ill equipped to cope with such a threat. Heavy loses left many of the smaller territories leaderless and in a nation unable to provide for its people. The problem was further compounded by the bijuu being able to spread further across the land, easily bypassing the border defenses of the Land of Rivers and Rain Country.

It was determined by the remaining Kage that a united force needed to be developed to seal the beasts. With emissaries from the Land of Moon, a nation primarily comprised of spiritualists, the next few years involved a cooperative military effort to seal the beasts. However, this time, the beasts were not to be sealed into vessels, but into shrines utilizing a special technique from the Land of Moon. Despite the collaboration of all of the nations, as well as the support of the Land of Moon, many more people lost their lives, including many of the remaining Kage.

The efforts to corral the beasts forced many of them into the Land of Lightning. Much like the Land of Wind, it faced excessive destruction, leaving it a shell of its former glory. Once the beasts were finally all sealed, the remaining leaders, some who had ascended to power during the destruction were left with Lands poorly equipped to deal with the needs of a suffering populace. The Land of Earth had fared the best with much of its territory untouched by the bijuu.

The Tsuchikage wasted no time in taking control over the Land of Wind. The people were broken and put up no resistance, nor did any of the other nations object as it was not really a war, but more a necessity if any of the people of the Land of Wind were going to survive. Additionally, the Land of Snow quickly became a willing part of the Land of Earth's fledgling empire.

The Land of Fire became a new nation known as Kyokujitsu, which comprised the former Land of Fire as well as many of the smaller border countries. The Land of Lightning similarly was forced to become a part of another nation, much like the Land of Wind. The Land of Mist took control over the northern half of the Land of of Lightning. The rest of the Land of Lightning became home to Kyūseishu, the organization that had once cared for the new jinchuuriki and many remnants from the coalition forces that had taken part in sealing the bijuu. Now, they were tasked with providing a neutral force in the world and be the ones to take on whatever disaster they may face next. The remaining nations would continue to provide members, as well as resources and occasional guidance to them.

Of course, the early years following the final sealing of the bijuu were difficult both for the nations and Kyūseishu, as resources were limited. However, with ingenuity from the leaders of each of the nations, all of them soon were well on the path towards returning to their former glories. The remaining leaders signed what would become to be known as the Three Nation Accords, which outlined the role of the Kyūseishu in the world, as well as the authority they would wield and the support they would be given. Leadership would be decided only be unanimous vote of the three Kage after an internal selection of candidates was completed. However, with the relative peace following the sealing of the last bijuu, there was minimal need to replace the Kyūseishu leadership.

However, this is merely a calm before the coming storm. A storm that may be all too familiar; a storm set in motion nearly 40 years ago.

Tl;dr version:
- 400 years ago Demon Wars in which Jinchuuriki were used as weapons. Resulted in agreement following those wars that they should not be used in that manner.
- 40ish years ago - Kazekage betrays the agreement, results in bijuu getting free and started rampaging around the mainland. They destroy a bunch of stuff and many of the nations merge to survive (see map). Bijuu are now stored in Shrines and are religious symbols for some scattered about the land. 1,2,9 are in Kyokujitsu no Tochi territory, 3,5,8 are in Land of Water. 6 and 7 are in Land of Earth. 4 is within Kyuueseishi territory.
- Currently some smaller nations are less thrilled to be a part of the larger ones.

Rules
Aside from general RP rules, we will include the following rules to ensure the roleplay feels as massive as intended. Multiple characters are strongly, strongly encouraged.

- General Village NPCs can be created by anyone. Kages should be consulted before making shinobi NPCs. All nations will be given limits on how many of each rank of shinobi they can have, so NPC usage must be watched closely. Additionally, NPCs cannot engage in combat outside of inter-village combat without having bio'd jutsu and abilities. History is not necessary for these character. Make sure you identify all NPCs used to us, so we can add them to the NPC list for the village (you can also adapt this NPC to a PC later on as you get more inspiration)
- PC characters MUST be approved by the Kage of the Village they are applying into. For the thread, there are no biographic requirements at the time of usage and creation of the character, but you must provide a fully fleshed out bio prior to engagement in any combat outside of friendly combat within the village. Most people will also require this for friendly duels within the village.
- Your characters can die with or without your consent. This is meant to be a potentially dangerous world and there will be threats facing the characters and decisions may not always have a favorable outcome.

The Role of a Leader (Kage)

For those that are selected as Kage, you will have significant powers over what happens within your lands.

- Accept and Decline character admittance into your village (providing I have already accepted the character overall)
- Create techniques outside of your own character's technique to safeguard your territory - these will not be disclosed and sent via PM to me.
- Create and Control Shinobi NPCs liberally.

Bio Format

There is no specific format, but you must include:
- Basic information such as name, age, village
- General history for the character
- Any techniques, special weapons, skills, or other combat related item before engaging in combat with another player

You can use my format in the third post if you wish. @Bishop also has the authority to do preliminary acceptance and review.

Just make sure to remove Symbols of Fuujin, that's specific to the Windspeakers of Kyokujitsugakure :D

Other than that, if you have any questions or need any assistance, please just let us know and we'll be happy to help.

It would be nice to know which countries are what and all. I read the premise, but I can't figure it out. Which colored border corresponds to what country?

The red border represents Iwagakure and its territories, the yellow border represents Kyokujitsugakure and its territories, and blue represents Kirigakure and its territories.

That's just another nation that we won't really be interacting with in the beginning. They may come into things later, but for now they're unimportant. :)

The purple country is from across the seas - they aren't really interacted with because they are so far away. Part of the preliminary story will involve that developing relationship.

@Write Accepted from my side. Since Tuuj is leading the Kyuuseishi, he can provide final commentary.

How many years have roughly passed between the Fourth Shinobi World War and present day/time when the Vessels were killed?
