Party Trick: Can pull perfect donuts with his car.
Profession: Private Investigator
Likes: Chess, Smoking, Whiskey, Mecha Figurines, Jazz Bars, Classy Escorts
Dislikes: bright lights, noodles, guns, corruption, new jersey, ex wives, pimps
Personality: Fenton is very straight to the point and can seem cold and distant sometimes, especially when working. His sleeping pattern and drinking habits make him very moody during the day time. He has a strong sense of justice but also is a man of many legal vices such as gambling and women. He is known for having an almost non existent temper although he always seems mildly irritated.
Backstory: Fenton was always going to be a cop, he had a strong sense of authority even as child, who would always dictate the rules of every game they would play and make sure everyone stuck to them. His career in the police force was pretty mundane to begin with, and he almost quit on two separate occasions due to boredom. But after sticking with it he finally came upon a case he couldn't take his mind off. The murder of a cult leader in his own mansion. The details of the incident were very strange with many witness reports alluding to something supernatural at play. The police commission quickly buried the case and listed the murder as unsolved, which angered Fenton. He then went on to become a private investigator and joined the Neo-City detective club. Where he would only take up cases that interested him, including the supernatural.
Likes: Traditional dance (and food) from all different cultures, winter and spring, rivers and waterfalls, flowers (especially sakura blossoms), fancy clothes, uniqueness, cats, all kinds of music, tea, the spotlight, dreaming.
Dislikes: The heat, being alone/ignored, people that don't mean what they say, idle time.
Profession: Actress (Star of Milky Hearts)
Bio/Personality: It may come as a shock that the actress you see on television inserts herself into her roles in such a way, she lives them. She can be described as little else but beautiful, inside and out. She is graceful, soft-spoken and always smiling, and her romantic nature at heart is what pushed her to pursue hee acting career in romance films.
She grew up as the fifth child of seven sisters and two very traditional parents, teaching all the girls dance as they grew up. Though they've all moved to different parts of the country now, the sisterly bond is strong as ever and her parents are now old, and well cared for. The sisters all seem well off, but Aoi is the second most settled out of them all, the first being her eldest sister who is married, and besides her own endeavour in the shoe design department, her husband heads a prestigious law firm. Aoi dreams to one day find a man who loves her despite her career and fame, and someone who sweeps her right off her feet....Or at least she knows that's what her parents want, her true desires may not be accepted in a traditional Japanese family.
We are back to bring it all back to the start! Shine City Zero is set 5 years before Shine City (Season 1) So this means a perfect start if you are totally new to the City of Shine, or if you are returning you can have fun backtracking the lore to start something new in the 'past'!
For those of you new to Shine City, its an open freeform slice of life/romance RP where young single people come to socialise and find friendships, dating and ultimately love in the beautiful and ever growing shine city.
For reference here are the previous seasons.
Shine City I Shine City II Shine City III Shine City IV Shine city is the largest city in Shine County, a fictional land that is based on Canada, Japan and the United Kingdom to some degree where your character will work and live day by day (depending on time skips) and interact with the other inhabitants. The 'Plot' of the RP is mainly decided by the characters as it's open to flow with the current events, this is a HUGE social RP so we want as many characters as possible for this iteration of Shine City.
What You Can Expect
• You don’t need to have been a part of season 1 or 2 or 3 to jump right into season 0! Don’t be scared to join our cast of players just because you’ve never played with us before. Help us keep this sea stocked with plenty of fish!
• This is going to be a high casual to low advanced roleplay, which means you will be expected to give well written posts with a three paragraph minimum. This doesn't mean you have to write flawlessly, we all misspell a word every now and again, but no one should have to struggle to make sense of your post.
• This is an anime roleplay, so we are going to be using anime for our appearance pictures. No real life please!
• 1 character each, but you may have additional 'side characters' in the RP once you clear it with one of the GMs
• This game is very character driven! The Shine City GMs have created a lovely town for you to play in, so go forth and make your own story! The city will hold the occasional event (like an author having a book signing or a carnival) so we can get many of the characters in one place for a bigger chance to mingle and the GM will impose time skips as he sees fit, but other than that you are free to explore the town and play however you want.
•You will probably find love! ...and maybe a little heartache. It’s a fact of any romance roleplay that characters will fall in and out of love and one character may even betray another one (steal their man, sabotage a job interview, cheating, etcetera etcetera). It is important for you to know that while the Shine City staff ( @Delta44,and myself) love us some good IC drama, we do not enjoy it when it carries over to the OOC. Please be kind and respectful of your fellow players and always remember that the character and their creator are two separate entities.

Town Locations
Here is a list of Shine City's different locations that your character can explore/work at! We’re always updating it based off player demand, so check back often!
I will be your tour guide to make sure you enjoy your stay, first let me show you to the town centre, its know by its official road name of Shine Junction
Theme Music!
Here you will find a lot of the high end boutiques and clothing stores, there is a theatre, a few music venues and of course the shine city arcade! At night this place lights up and this becomes an amazing place to take a date for a drink in one of the penthouse bars on the skyscrapers dotted throughout the centre. Or maybe take your date to one of the 14 restaurants each with a different cultural style for that exotic variety! Everybody who's anybody can be seen in Shine Junction from time to time.But hang around here too much and you may become over-exposed, a little mystery and privacy goes a long way in the dating world ;)
Now for all of you slightly younger go getters out here, or maybe those just trying to add to their skill set later on in life, you will already be familiar with the Shine City Academy
Theme Song
Although most students here are between the ages of 16-22 there is good number of older students here looking to further their career with extra qualifications, this academy boasts a massive campus which holds a lot of dorm rooms, and a huge university sports field as well. Although this is a place of study do not heistate to come here for a spot of after school socialising! I recommend the cafeteria, the food there is excellent, what a surprise!
After all that it would make sense to take it easy for a little while and get some fresh air so why don't you check out the Shiny Park?
Theme Song
You may want to take your puppy for a walk around here, pets are the best conversation starter and you may even get some exercise chasing after Mr/Ms Right! I'll catch you there for ultimate frisbee! This is also a great place for a picnic, and time to pull out the guitar when nobody is expecting it.
Ahh 21 and over only I'm afraid, this is the biggest club in the city, and is frequented by whoever is somebody in Shine County! Sadly on a busy night, its hard to get in unless you know someone from the upper echelon of high society. It has the best nightcore and hardcore happy house in the world and the dance floor is always packed out. The Bouncers have kept an eye out for students from Shine City Academy who probably shouldn't be there! If you cant get in here be sure to check out the MochaVine coffee store.
Theme Music:
If you want to relax or maybe talk to the cool bartenders and baristas the please check out this awesome cafe bar combo, its frequented by the more artistic crowd in Shine City and is a great place for indpendent musicians to get a start. But if you are feeling hungry please head over to the Tiny Snowflake Restaurant
Theme Song
Feeling that traditional vibe? well the founder of this beautiful eatery in the heart of shine junction can trace his family business all the way back to the Edo period, which is why he has chosen to preserve the oriental aesthetic in the decor. The menu here is very varied though serving anything from Sushi and Wu don to steak and lobster, to cater to all the tastes of the very mixed culture of shine city.
Hey so you have a bit of spare cash? why not see if you can double it at shine city's premiere grown up playground? The socilaites from the the wealthy Upscale Heights part of town love to frequent this golden paradise almost any day of the week. Casino Games, Poker, BlackJack, Roulette, Slots, the options to gamble and live life on the edge are available for you here, just remember when its time to stop! But if youre not quite old enough for these games and want a more family friendly playground check out the Lancom Arcade
This is the centre for everything gaming, LAN parties, Trading Card Games, Arcade Tournaments, even a bit of cosplay on certain days! Please come along and spend the day with your friends around colourful lights and library of games for you to enjoy! And remember this is shine city, so a high level tournament player is the type to end up on a lot of dates! so brush up on those skills! Now after all that high energy gaming why not take a stroll through the calming Shine Aquarium exhibition?
The sea creatures of shine county are a marvel to behold, and the 'blue tunnel' in this vast museum/aquarium is almost the stuff of legend, this aquarium was the main driving force of tourism in shine city back when it was only a little town back in the 80s. This is the perfect place to take a date, let the atmosphere and music send you into a dream word...and dont forget to buy a t-shirt!
Did you forget your mom's birthday? Didn't get your girl anything for your anniversary and now you're stuck in the dog house? Well, flowers don't fix everything, but they're a good place to start! All of our beautiful flowers are either grown in house or supplied by local growers from within the Shine City community, and they're sure to put a smile on that special someone's face. More of a do-it-yourself kind of person? We've got you covered! This flower shop has everything a gardener could ever need, from pruning sheers and gloves to fertilizer and seeds. So come on down to The Enchanted Florist and grab your 'I'm-so-sorry-please-don't-make-me-sleep-on-the-couch-again' bouquet today!
If you're tired of staring at screens for work, pounding out papers for school or breaking records at the Lancom Arcade then look no farther than this quiet spot. Located off the corner of the Shine City Mall parking lot, where the flickering streetlights like to hang out, Ink Sparks is your final stop on the quest for a good book or a private nook. This might be the only store in Shine City to offer both excellent light for reading and dramatic shadows, perfect for an adventurous meeting or a game of cards. Under new ownership.
Hey so you feeling the winter spirit? while inside of the same centre that holds the Aquarium is a new ice rink center! There will be more expansions to the activity complex coming soon, and this is the first! Rent a set of blades and show off on your next date, and dont worry even if you fall on your butt, its seen as cute, so its a win/win situation! See you on the Ice!
Vision feeling a little blurry? Or perhaps you need a new set of shades for the beach? At "An Eye For Fashion" the expert staff of licensed professionals can help you see your best and look your best. Inspired by the owner's travels across Europe, you'll feel as though you've stepped into another dimension as you leave Japan behind for the rustic city streets of Europe. It's said that Kyle Parker is working on his skills in the trade here.
They carry popular brand lines such as Bay-Rans, Coochie, and airsols.
Catherine Von Shine and her rich family founded Shine County In the 1800s, and although the bloodline of the family is no more. The beautiful Mansion they owned has stood the test of time and has been restored for public use as, The Shine City Town Hall. Legendary Party Promoter and Co-Ordinator Jacques Jonai has gotten permission from the City to begin holding City events here Including The 1st Shine Masquerade Ball for the new year.
A little on the small side, but still big enough to fit a pool table, jukebox, several small tables and a couple of booths comfortably. The name comes from the fact that its located in the bottom corner of an apartment complex, with the owner living directly above it. Its an old bar with a new owner, having recently been refurbished and reopened, the floorboards creak with age and the seat cushions are getting a little threadbare, but it is very well stocked. If one prefers to drink in a more quiet, relaxed atmosphere with smooth jazz and blue eyed soul playing softly in the background this is the place to go.
As it is a bar, the owner will be very careful to check for valid ID's, and might hire a bouncer to assist with this in the near future. It does serve water and a full complement of sodas, but minors are generally encouraged to go some place more age appropriate.
Hours:
Weekdays: 4:00 PM - 2:00 AM last call is at 1:45 AM
Weekends: 3:30 PM - 1:30 AM last call is at 1:15 AM
Note: the times the bar stays open to can vary wildly depending on how late the owner is willing to stay up. Once he feels especially tired he will close up shop, even if other employees can tend the bar, as he lives directly above the place he'd need peace and quiet. Smoking is strictly inside, and coming in with a lit cigarette is enough to earn the ire of the owner.
Fenton Kelly opened up this office very shortly after moving to shine city against the wishes of his superior who wanted to him to take it easy. This is located above one of the massage parlors in the slightly more raunchy end of shine city. Fenton provides an investigation service to whoever needs something found or found out. But because of the low crime nature of Shine City, most of his cases so far have just been to spy on cheating wives and husbands. He finds this work slightly too easy, but appreciates its better than sitting around 'relaxing'.
The Shine City Science Institute and Research Centre, or the S.I.R for short, is Shine City’s very own facility dedicated to scientific research and development. The centre is a bustlingly building with many different departments all dedicated to wherever curiosity made lead them; The S.I.R covers a range of fields and has an excellent professional reputation. The centre has many links with the academy making it a popular destination for field trips. Not only that, the S.I.R also has a science museum section open to all members of the public who are interested in popping down and checking it out.
...And I think that's it! Please let us know if you’re interested in playing with us this season and feel free to ask questions if you need something clarified or need help with a character sheet.
