Demon Hunter Academy (DHA) is a school specialized in training young men and women into becoming the great demon hunters there are. After graduation they are sent into another town to work directly for the DHUnion. They fight, protect, and recruit. Such is the job of a Hunter, and the world's been fine just that way, but lately, something wonky's been happening. A lot more demons are coming out of nowhere, and Union members are either disappearing or dropping like flies. No one knows what's happening, except there are starting to be whispers of "The First Nightmare".

The First was thought to be the first demon released by the Earthly Mother, and went by many names. Its powers were reliant on eating lesser beings, be it humans, animals, or the other demons. It was basically a really strong eating machine, and defeated only by seven of the most high ranking Union members at the time(as well as a bunch of unnamed lesser deaths, but they're not important). He hasn't been heard of since. So, it's natural the people would be scared.

But that has nothing at all to do with you! As a student at the Academy, all you have to focus on is getting better at using your supplied weapons and graduating! There are five different types of Hunters- the Exorcists, Medics, Tamers, Archers, and Knights.
Exorcists are that- they expell and vanquish demons. These guys are heavily reliant on chants, holy water, and some people defending them. Sort of like Priests in videogames, except now they're being trained to learn defense themselves, in order to be more efficien. With all the things you need to know, aim only for Exorcist if you're good at memorization!
Medics are healers. Gotta be good with hands, summoning, and most of all, treating other people. Demons- oh, right I forgot to mention, demons are joining now- are usually not in this group, but there are some that like to surprise.
Tamers are people who use familiars, or acquaint themselves with wild demons and take them. Most of lessons will be about how to draw a magic circle to summon said creatures given that circles are a pain to draw. By now, Tamers usually just tattoo their specific familiar's circle on their body to make it less tedious. Not everyone does it though so, eh, whatever floats your boat.
Archers are not necessarily archers- just people with a thing for long distance. The name has gotten old over the year, as archers now would rather be called assassins, given that the practice has branched out to snipers or ninja like sneaking prior to attacking. Formally they're still the Archers though, because the paperwork to change the name and all that is too much of a hassle.
Knights are the most common, and are basically close combat fighters. These divide into two parts- the Shields and the Swords. Shields specialize in defense, Swords in offense. They're lumped as Knights because both parties are still pretty decent at doing one anothers' jobs.




Mmmmm,, and that was basically all I thought of with that. I'd probably send some students on a field trip, meet up with Kanaris, badass students fight woo. Or something. I just wanna have fun with kids with cool powers okay?:c
I feel like I'm missing a lot tho so feel free to ask questions below/clarify any misunderstandings.
Also it's been forever(like, since oldguild) that I've started my own RP so bare with me. Kthx.

hello yes this is marshie and i have the questions:

a) magic. have you a specific system in mind? i see holy water, exorcisms, magical runes and summoning magic here. is there more generalized magic or

b) time period. i just assume some sort of medieval stasis going on here but it's pretty unclear so if you could just clear that up that'd be good.

c) that's actually all the questions i have for now. i'm tempted to ask how anime the school is but i'm not sure i actually care so that works out pretty well for everyone.

okay i've said my bit but i'll probably join regardless of the answers because it's a "badass students fight woo" kind of day.

a)nah man, in terms of magic there's all sorts. Egyptians using godly powers, sutras being chanted, if the kid knows it, the kid can use it. Ah!!! Which reminds me, Knights also have a bit of magic, which allow them to summon their Soul Weapon- a weapon compatible to you. Like a soul mate, except cooler.

b)this is actually modern day. Not because I wanna see some sky scrapers be destructed pfffft whaaaaat. That's silly. They just use really old terms because man fuck that whole name change jazz.

c)I was kinda expecting it to be pretty anime in terms of pictures the roleplayers will use, but as far as Everything else, it'll probably be on the western side? I actually don't know how anime it'll be it depends on the people who join I guess wow this was a nonexistent answer to a nonexistent question.

it should always be a badass students fight woo kind of day

ruronihs- I hear that is a radical manga. I should check it out to see if it's as radical as this idea, but nothing will top the radicalness in your interest. Stay rad \m/

Blue Exorcist is awesome, though, so if your RP ends up like it, then that means your RP is awesome ^_^

rwby is p rad tho
and I guess blue exorcist must be, too:0

well, I'm working out kinks in terms of pictures and lame layout but if y'all wanna start thinking of characters, here's a simple character sheet to start your brainstormin:

Name: (bleh)
Age: (between eleven to nineteen)
Title: (some name kids call you like on those mangas and shit. Like, "wait, isn't that the Radical Ranger?!?!" it can be something as simple as Highest Exam Ranker or as outrageous as The Dragon Fang of the East. heheh. Put N/A if not important enough to have a title)
Primary: (first type of Hunter you're studying for)
Secondary: (a secondary type of Hunter. Put N/A if you don't have one)
Weapon: (description of appearance/an actual picture. if a picture, please put in a hider. put N/A if you don't have a weapon)
Weapon Abilities:(tell me about the rad things ur weapon can do. put N/A if you don't have a weapon)
Physical Abilities:(tell me about the rad things you can do)

I'm probably gonna make like separate skeletons for each type of Hunter depending on my mood but for now that should be the basic gist. Ah, appearance is important too I guess but whatever.

I should say this now before it's brought up later on, but a secondary role isn't necessarily gonna make you OP? Sort of like majoring in one thing then having a minor to help you along. I.e,, say your Primary is an Archer and your Secondary is a Tamer. Maybe you use a demon helper to supply you with a ride (probably typical use of a secondary Tamer) or some other thing. But unless your primary is Tamer, then you can't necessarily /control/ a demon enough to actually make it fight for you. Not saying it's impossible to do both, but lets be real we're all students here and that is dumb to hand kids that much power.

Does it look like I'm over thinking things yet?
I have a bad habit of over thinking things.

feel free to force me into posting things asap bc if u don't I will end up overthinking the whole thing and ruining it
but for now, have fun with brainstorming

i hafta pee

another kwestion. you mentioned that demons go to this school now. i assume they're the more human-like demons in terms of intelligence, but does that split the school between demons and humans, or are there other races here involved? and regarding humans, are magical type quirks a common sort of thing or are things like idek magical eyesight more uncommon

tends to be pretty okay in terms of demon/human relation, but there are some racists that cause dispute in the halls of the academy. Nothing students can't handle. as far as other races, the only races for now will be demons and humans because any more would get me off in a tangent and just. huff. I am a lazy butt.

the only common magical quirk in humans is the whole being able to see demons thing. Otherwise, anything beyond that is by birth defect/blessing/curse/blood. I could also say science experiment, but again, let's pretend that doesn't exist because bluhhuhhuhhuh

oh look it's Nui. Quick everyone, run.

also, @LetterA: I suggest all the player characters have at least one class in common, to facilitate interaction. Therefore ages should also be similar.
