I think the ideal thing to do would be to have people just sorta meet up in the Human Village for starters. Solving the incident isn't going to be as straightforward as 'find culprit, beat up culprit' this time, but teams will go a long way in starting that process up.

As for combat... Honestly, a mix of danmaku and actual fights is probably what I had in mind. It's not like most of the cast is in a fighting game anyhow, right?

But seriously though, so long as it feels interesting and dynamic, it should be fine. I'm not going to do anything weird like relying on RNG; so long as we end up with a good story, it should be fine.
@Sylph de Graaf: Kokoro accepted.

I think that's everyone, then?
Human Village


The carefree expression on Tenshi's face as she walked down the path to the Hakurei Shrine would not immediately betray the fact that she had been kicked out of Heaven once again for her belligerence. It wasn't a routine at this point so much as it was a point of contention; there hadn't been anything to do up there for a few weeks, and ever since the Perfect Possession incident had been resolved, she hadn't stepped foot back into Gensokyo. Really, it wasn't her fault that Celestials tended to be particularly boring about that.

If anything, that was why she was on her way to the Hakurei Shrine now; Shion had gone off somewhere else (to the chagrin of more than a few people), so she was left without anyone to do much of anything with.

Of course, heading to the shrine by foot meant passing through the Human Village, which ordinarily wouldn't have been a problem. Most of the time, the humans there would give her a bit of space as she passed through (which was a suitable amount of respect that she felt she rightfully deserved), but today, it seemed the town was abuzz with activity—and not in a good way. The words 'unconscious' and 'weird space' seemed to be particularly commonplace as she strolled through the streets, but beyond that, there wasn't much to be gathered from words alone. When there was this much negative chatter, though, the blue-haired Celestial found it to be a given that there was something afoot.

In other words, going to the Hakurei Shrine wasn't necessary to have fun this time around—at least, not yet. If there was an incident afoot, then it was likely that neither Reimu nor Marisa would be there, anyways. No, instead, now was the time to poke around; if any of the other major players in Gensokyo were already moving about, then there was a chance that she could catch onto a lead here, right?

...Of course, if there was an incident, then maybe that meant that she could have some fun in a duel as she worked her way to the culprit...
@Fractured: Hm... I suppose that works as enough justification, then. A bit of my worry was rooted in her ULiL scenario, where she sorta just goes around not really doing anything directly related to the main plot until she ends up accidentally spooking the living daylights out of Sumireko. It's sorta that weird in-between that makes things a bit tough.

Well, in any case, that's that cleared up, then. I'll be making a start to this in a bit.
Geh, double posting again because I actually can't let this sit right now (damn this random bout of insomnia).

@Fractured: It's been brought to my attention that there are a few issues with regards to character interactions between Koishi and... Well, everyone else, if only because of the emphasis on everyone forgetting she was there in the first place. Don't get me wrong, that is how it works, but it does create some weird logistics problems in the long term because none of the character interactions end up... Well, sticking.

Plus, motivation for getting involved in the incident isn't as clear with Koishi; most others either have 'bored' or 'wants to actually resolve' as a driving force, but Koishi is by nature super wishy-washy.

I'm sorry to spring this on you right as we're about to kick off, but I at least want to try and address this before that happens. If you're still okay with Sanae, I can fast-track you in if you swap between the two, or we can try hashing something out with Koishi to work around these issues. I'd prefer the former, but I'll leave the choice up to you.
@Rin@RolePlayerRoxas: Both accepted.

I think this is at least enough to kick things off; @Sylph de Graaf, you can slip in your form whenever and still be able to get into things. I don't think the group will get too far, so you should be fine on that front.

Well, it might be a bit too late for that right now, though. Expect an opening post in a few hours from now.
  • Name: Hinanawi Tenshi — Girl of the Sphere of Neither Perception nor Non-Perception
  • Appearance: "What, you thought you could have fun without me?"
  • Ability/Skills: As a Celestial, Tenshi's body is extraordinarily tough, able to resist damage that would usually leave lasting wounds upon most other people. She can hit back just as hard by dint of that, which is technically helpful in combat (though it also makes her prefer close-quarters combat over danmaku battles when it comes down to it). Of course, being a Celestial also means that she is also overly sensitive to the presence of death (it's rather distasteful for her), and she can't get sick or be bound by ordinary problems present to those of the flesh.
    Other than that, Tenshi has the ability to manipulate the earth by means of keystones, which she makes liberal use of in combat and flight alongside her weapon, the Sword of Hisou. The Sword itself allows her to manipulate the 'ki' of others, which she can thus change into something meant to target the weaknesses of her opponent. This only really means that she can change the weather around people for the most part, though, which can be both a good or a bad thing. Otherwise, it's a great weapon for close-quarters combat, and when used in conjunction with her keystones, allows Tenshi to maintain pressure in combat if left unchecked.
  • History: A child of the Hinanawi family who only became a Celestial because the Nawi became divine spirits, Tenshi has never actually cared much for her life in Heaven. To her, the idyllic days that most other Celestials enjoyed were filled with nothing but boredom. It didn't take long for her to decide to cause havoc down in Gensokyo to break her boredom, of course, and with that came the chain of Gensokyo residents one after the other to beat her up in an attempt to resolve it. Though her temperament has not changed much since that time, she does end up frequenting the lands beneath Heaven in order to kill time (or when she is forced out), causing her to become somewhat well-acquainted with those who frequent the Hakurei Shrine.
  • Personality: Tenshi is, without a doubt, a spoiled child who under normal circumstances would probably not have become a Celestial. As far as Celestials go, she is unusually worldly, and her (generally) unchecked selfishness has led to her being banished from Heaven more than a few times. Of course, she is the instigator of her own share of incidents and has ended up on the receiving end of a good chunk of Gensokyo's residents' attacks because of this, but it isn't necessarily like she's a bad person at heart. Rather, the boredom of Heaven combined with an untempered heart have led to her becoming rather self-centered and arrogant. All things considered, that might be for the best; she seems much more at home in Gensokyo than in Heaven, despite being forced to return every so often for whatever reason.
  • Other: As mentioned earlier, she has a fairly decent relationship with the people who frequent the Hakurei Shrine, so long as she isn't being particularly blockheaded during a given incident. She'll occasionally drop by to hang out there, just as she might the hermitage of a certain Ibara Kasen.
@Fractured: Accepted.

I suppose that it's not fun if I don't also have a way of directing things from within a scene, so time for a character of my own.

Should post characters in characters, I suppose.
@VitaVitaAR@Raineh Daze: Youmu and Mokou okay. Accepted.
I hate double posting, but I think I have to do it.

OoC up.

Forms there (Vita, you were a bit too quick on the draw here); I'll review them then.
