With four people interested, the OOC is now up. If y'all know anyone else that may be interested, feel free to direct them there as well~













Located on the eastern coast of Japan and enclosed by high mountains, it is a modern town, isolated if not for a few mountain roads and railways leading through the winding mountain. The crows fly overhead, and the sun shines heartlessly over the gray, impressionless city. At night, inhuman shapes flutter in the darkness, a night parade of one thousand demons. The locals keep their homes shut tight, windows and doors plastered with talismans.


Despite the fear, despite the superstition, despite the unexplained noises, it is a town that is vivid, alive with a melting-pot culture that grows as more visitors become residents. Though the unknown is feared, it is similarly respected, embraced as one of the hundred myths that have already been sewn onto the town’s tapestry. Its festivals are colorful, and its people are alive, filled with energy and imagination in a world that fostered the incomprehensible.


And now, it is a town of unexplained incidents. A house spontaneously combusted, lighting up without so much as a ‘boom’. A man was found on the mountains, floating inside a van filled to the brim with water. Several residents reported seeing a large eye appear at their windows at night. Children wake up to find their toys floating around them. The trees in a park disappeared without a trace, leaving an empty, grassy field, as if they had never existed. And, one day, an unfinished building appeared in the middle of the city, standing far above any other.

A series of events, either by coincidence or fate, connects you to this madness.

And one day, as you live your life, you receive a box from an unknown sender.

In there is a red cellphone, and a message, written on a yellowed sheet of paper.




You know me as much as I know you, child. If you wish to learn of my identity, share yours, and perhaps it will become apparent. Or perhaps it won't. It all depends on your own perception of the world on the underside of reality, doesn't it?​

  • What is your Name? Age? Gender?​
  • What do you look like? A picture speaks a thousand words, but there are words that can explain what pictures can not.​
  • Who are you? Tell me about yourself, your habits, your quirks, your fears.​
  • What are you? Where do you come from? Who are your parents? How was your life, up to this point?​
  • Whom are you acquainted with? Who are your friends? Rivals? Enemies? Role models?​
  • What is it that you desire, that which you can not attain with your own power?​
  • And finally, child, what am I?​
Glad to hear that. Guess if I get one person interested a day, I can get enough to start in two more days~
Thanks for the interest~ Hopefully other people come along, yah. Don't want to have to go fishing in their VMs. XD

Sup. Thought I might as well do a RP, now that another has died. To simplify, this is a supernatural RP centered around characters given the ability to realize their deepest desires, at a price. This is also going to be a fairly anime/manga-influenced RP, so if you dislike those sorts of things, this may not be for you. Preferably, your characters will be teenagers, mainly so I can toss them all into the same school, but I don't mind having some older people in.

Also, as far as GMing goes, I'm not a particularly nice person. If you don't like making hard decisions, you might not want to join this RP. I'll try my best to keep this interesting, so please do your best to stay as the dedicated RPers you are~ I don't care too much about post length, but I would like to see characters develop and react in interesting ways.

And finally...here's an application form. Post a character picture alongside it, ok~? I just also want a textual description because most pictures don't give you height, weight, and scars~

“Uwah?! W-what are you saying? Of course you’d bring a gardening book when you go out into the wild! It’s so you can figure out the best way of converting wildlands into farm lands!” Flabbergasted by the Pheran’s lack of healthy logic, Tsukiko touched her cheeks, wondered why they were so warm, and then slapped the book down onto the seat once more, one hand stamped over the inconspicuous cover. “And…I don’t hate it! I’m just…horrifically embarrassed at the face of how unabashedly shameless the author was! T-they really need some spiritual guidance!”

The priestess placed her hand against her chest, felt the hammering of her heart, and then took in a deep breath. “And if it’s good because it’s filthy,” she said, tone as if reciting some scripture she had memorized before, “Then it may well be a sin. So…yeah! I’ll be confiscating this, for the sake of your moral health!”

With that, before the Pheran could get a word in, Tsukiko opened up her satchel and tossed the hideously corrupt book into it.
After the first few pages, all Tsukiko could hear was the sound of her own voice, her mind reading through the scandalous lines of this book. What was this? How could this even…why would anyone even enjoy this? It’s not like she was enjoying this, after all! This was just…research! Research to see how far others have fallen into depravity due to the influence of this book!

Snow-white skin began to redden as the contents of the book became hotter and hotter. Euphemisms Tsukiko was never aware of had now been scorched into her mind. She could never look at a cucumber the same way again. A tingling sensation blossomed in the pit of her stomach, a nervous anxiety as she continued to go through what could only be described as a hot, messy wreckage. Too hot. Her body was too hot. She was becoming light-headed. This was almost intoxi-

"Is that my book?”

Tsukiko literally jumped up, slamming her head into the overarching roof of the wagon. With a splintering crack, the wood was flung off, and the horse neighed in surprise at the loud sound. Whipping around, she said, voice shrill, “T-this is filthy! Why would you bring this to a mission? I-it’s not about gardening at all!”
The Kaolrit tribe? A false god? The very fact that those jungle trolls worshipped a ‘god’ the first place was stupid. Nodding in approval of the chief’s negative outlook on the rival tribe’s worship and treatment of their sacred bird, Tsukiko allowed herself to relax a little bit more. These trolls, despite their original offensive, have proved themselves to be reasonable enough, and the Great Spirits have not yet commanded their extermination. For now, she would go and meet their Elder.

Tetras had righted the cart and reattached the horse, and, hopping onto it once more, Tsukiko waited for anyone else to get back on, before snapping the reins and urging the horse over. A few moments, later it became obvious that the horse could just lead itself, and the priestess’s curiousity got the better of her.

Reaching out, the ink-haired girl drew Ophene’s book closer, about to read it.
I posted. Bam, here are the plot-related questions.
