Should I add that no one checked the clue hidden in the cathedral? There's hardly one way for you all to follow through this RP. It depends mostly of what you want to do, plans we have to pretty every rock in the world.
Haruka


Name: Haruka Yoritomo.

Title: Preacher of Universal Speech.

Gender: Female.

Age: 19.

Height: 160 cm.

Weight: 50 kg.

Appearance:



Personality: Simply put, Haruka is a quirky girl with a personality that can be better described as a troll. She's the type who likes to take what others say and spin it to her enjoyment, oftentimes bordering on fabricated stories. Most of the time, she has a quip or rebutal ready at the tip of her tongue and very rarely stumbles with her words.

As a raising pop idol, Haruka's "face", the sweet, cheerful and charismatic girl, brimming with youth and energy, is known by most, though her true self, a mix of her stage self, the and unrelenting troll with a penchant for weird subjects on psychology, philosophy and sciences, is rarely seen on stage or near it, being an aspect reserved only to her moonlight job as a Chaser, or the times when she's just enjoying her life.

However, when it's time to shoo the clowns, Haruka can become incredibly cold and analytic, using her sharp wits and powers to outmaneuver and defeat most threats that the Youkai can throw at her, or her current allies. Finally, this same Haruka is the one that engage in backyard scientific endeavors, trying to perfect her late father's work, specially his Opus Magnum, the erm... unique Project AURORA.


Short Bio: The only daughter of the genius scientist Dr. Marito Yoritomo, Haruka had an easygoing life, taking after her father's passion for the guitar and sciences, however putting her own spin to it, Haruka became a raising idol after, known for her soft low voice and great looks, however, because her career doesn't allow for it usually, very few know that Haruka is very skilled with both the guitar and the piano, in addition to her singing and dancing.

After her father's death by the hands of the notorious Edward Harker, Haruka took on Marito's research on advanced robotics and as of now, built a secret laboratory (with the help of Aria) to carry on Marito's work on the world's first completely functional android. She has also taken on the life of a Chaser and has plans to enroll on Sonomachi's University of Science and Arts (to study Philosophy) at the beginning of the next semester, even if this will have to put a temporary break on her idol career.


Powers: Haruka's power is known as Universal Language, the ability to influence others and even the world itself, with her words. This ability, is more like an advanced form of suggestion, that turns true anything that aren't outright impossible. However, Haruka can't use said power on herself, or warp reality in anyway, much less to outright mind control people, since all of these are out of her scope, at least until now.

Essentially, it would allow for things such as, she telling someone "Your feet are numb, you'll fall on your next step", and said person would fall if they took another step, or "Even if you try to shoot me, your gun will jam and become useless", which would cause said gun to jam, if the person she spoke to tried to shoot her with it.

Haruka also learned a bit of magic from Aria to be able to summon and dismiss her sword at a moment's notice and other simple cantrips, but this really isn't her specialty


Weapons: Shiranui: A treasure, being a shirasaya chokutoh (that is a guardless straight bladed sword) that can generate and control electricity and plasma in the form of a pale blue lightning bolt. Most of the time the charge is used to shock whoever is hit by her attacks, but she can also "shoot" the lightning by manipulating the potential difference between her and other objects.

Equipment: Mask of the Void: A mask depicting the symbols of the Sun, Moon and Stars, it's said to be made of the "hardened interstellar void", but has no powers or functions besides being completely indestructible.

Haruka also owns a custom built BMW S1000 RR racing motorcycle, with an improved suspension, chassis and brake systems, specially made to be able to jump the gaps between most building without suffering extensive damage. She also always has with her the best smartphone model she can buy, some money/credit cards and at the very least a couple packs of Pocky.


Other: Haruka declared publicly that she has a girlfriend and and little to no interest in boys, whoever said girlfriend's identity is secret.

Also, as befits her troll nature, Haruka greatly enjoys British comedy, finding it almost impossible to resist laughing her heart off with their quips.

Lastly, Haruka is fluent in English and knows a bit of both French and German, since her father's notes are written is a literal soup of idioms, to make it harder for people to decode them and use his work for evil purposes.


Theme


Since @TheWIndel informed me of while I was discussing my next post with him, I'll wait until @Lucius Cypher's next post, to avoid a possible conflict between them.

That is, if I was going to post now (which is all but ready), I was going to have Eris try to save Yoshino simply because she isn't the type to watch that and then think only of taking herself and Cassandra out of the fight. But given that I know that you are writing something similar, it's best for me to wait and see.

Either way Eris won't be getting into the fight, mind that. The last thing she wants to is to spend a night answering questions at the police station.

PS:

I'm not pressuring you or anything, just stating the reason for my delay.
@GrafRoy Zeppeli

Don't worry about about a low post rate, we are not in a speed run, anyway. As long as you keep coming to us it's ok.

Also, you can change your posts all you want, as long as you don't invalidate Amy action that has already happened. I know how you feel, posting in first person feels kinda weird when you think about it.
CHASERS
BOUNDARY OF THE CRIMSON SKY


GM

@KoL

Co-GMs

@TheWindel & @McFazzer




"When the night falls
the boundary is pierced
and beyond it
lies a world of red."


Intro


Mysterious occurrences have been happening through the city. Rumors tell about queer looking creatures stalking the shadows, people disappearing from the streets during the night, crime syndicates so powerful that the law can't even touch them and much, much more.

The common men dismiss such tales as nothing but urban legends, fabrications of the collective sub-consciousness of all who inhabit this sprawling jungle of concrete and steel.

However, there are few who know the truth that lies beyond every corner, within the back alleys where the light never shines and above the rooftops where the wind howls fiercely. These persons are know as Chasers, men and women of every age and path in life that always have at least two things in common.

First, they all know that the world is much more than the eye meets, that the supernatural beings wait inside every shadow, waiting to prey on the unwary. And second, somehow everyone of them has seen what lies beyond this world, the other side of reality that is best left unknown to the everyday men, this other world is know as... The Crimson Sky.

The Crimson Sky


All Chasers know of the Crimson Sky, in fact the ability to get in and out of there is the first and foremost difference between a normal human and a Chaser, and most of them gained their other abilities when they were sent there by accident, or dragged there by one of the Crimson Sky's inhabitants.

Entering and leaving the Crimson Sky can only be done during the night, for those who know how to do it, it is just a matter of crossing the right street or turning a in the correct direction corner. However, the easy with which it's done, meaning the number of places where the crossing can be done, varies with the phases of the moon, being much harder on new moon and almost childishly easy on the full moon nights.

The Crimson Sky is home to a number of different creatures that the Chasers dubbed Youkai for easy of reference. Some of them are friendly, some indifferent, but the great majority are nothing but predators always seeking their next meal.

Story


Welcome to the world of Chasers: Boundary of the Crimson Sky. This is a world of rooftop jumping action, supernatural beings hunting and eldritch mysteries stalking behind every corner.

Role Plays Featured: Archetype Character
Name: Lyfia (Lyfianna Pendrask)
Race: Half Elf
Age: 19
Height: 160 cm | 5'4"
Weight: 52 kg | 115.6 lbs
Hair: Blond
Skin: Light Tan
Eyes: Green
Alignment: Neutral Good

Appearance: Lyfia is a plain looking girl, not having any traits that would set her apart from any particular member of her race and gender. She stands at medium to low height with a light built body. Her skin is lightly tanned from working under he sun everyday for the past few years and her platinum blond hair is kept at shoulder length for practical purposes. If there's one thing that Lyfia has that's distinctive about her appearance, it's the purity of her emerald green eyes, that's uncommon even between pureblood members of the fair folk, still those same eyes tend to reflect a life of hardship, making them seem much duller than they truly are.

For clothing, Lyfia favors a mix of traditional elven garments like tunics made of light fabrics and deerskin boots proper for woodland trekking, along with more practical human clothing like a short skirt and a white silken scarf that she always wears despite of the weather, to conceal a slave collar scar.



Background: Lyfia is the daughter of a disgraced human knight and a forest elf that had found him on the forest after he had been nearly killed by his former lord's retainers due to a false charge of thievery. As the elf took helped the man recover, she ended up falling in love with him and the fruit of this relationship was a half elf, half human girl, who they named Lyfianna.

The family's peace wouldn't last forever, however. When Lyfia was about 7 years old, their village was raided by a mercenary band coming back from a non profitable battle and whoever didn't got killed, was taken as slaves and sold by the mercenaries, including Lyfia and her mother, who she never saw again after that day.

A four of years later, Lyfia somehow was sold to a thieves guild and her fate began to change as the guildmaster recognized the girl's value as a potential member and trained Lyfia personally in the art of thievery and deceit. Lyifia worked with the guild for couple years,, acquiring an impressive skill setting as her talents for the roguish arts flourished, until the day when the city watch, along with a band of nameless heroes finally managed to destroy the guild and put its members to justice.

Lyfia was able to escape any harsh punishment since she was a slave compelled to the thief's life against her will, and instead got sent to a city orphanage where she lived until an year ago. During this time Lyfia turned from a knave to a florist that worked hard to pay for the damage that she had caused. Currently, she has been living at a simple room in the back of the flower shop that she works for, but she hopes to earns enough money to buy a house of and start her own shop someday.
Guys, I'm not going to be on for two days. Since in the morning I'm going to be at Sydney for a little bit, I'm sorry if people are waiting on me but I need to get some sleep before I head off.


No problem, Waddle. Can I move Akemi to the next scene and have her wait there until you come back, if it's necessary?
@Zeroth

Don't worry, I have the day off today, so I'll put out a post before it ends.

PS: Actually, Maria will have some nice reactions to everyone.
Ah so I should direct it at pres right?


Yup, pretty much that. And make so that it's a girl that you're talking about.
