Interest Check - Fantasy with Knights, Adventurers, Magic, and Whatnot

I'm boring, I always play human.

I'd like to know how fantastical fights can be though, at what level are we expecting?

Persona - The True Self

Warakuma Central Shrine

With Kotori making her decision he walked with her over to the stand. The stall owner was cheerful, like a lot of the other people around them, as he was making it, he recognized Kotori, and asked if he was her boyfriend. Between the two, Kotori was someone who lived and knew a lot of people in this town, a fact which Rui was reminded of as this was his first year here. Would she answer or would he? It would be irresponsible to leave the entire thing to her, so he answered instead,

"Does it seem that way? Maybe we should be", he answered, he and the shopkeep laughed before he would bid them a good meal. They of course, weren't... Yet? He wasn't sure how she felt, and asking her outright would be tactless, but for tonight they should simply enjoy the festival as it is. They got their takoyaki and left the crowds, finding a bench a small ways off under the trees.

It was probably a bit awkward a thought for Kotori, but the two simply sat there watching the sky, and the festival. They'd go and enjoy some of the games on display like the goldfish catching and shooting gallery, before watching the fireworks at the end of it. They weren't as grand as a fireworks festival, but Rui preferred this over the ones in the city that were not only grand, but ridiculously crowded.

As the two sat and idled away the rest of the night, he thought to himself. A life in this town wouldn't be so bad. There were some things to solve first, but they were on the case of course. Eventually the two would leave as Rui walked her home, before he would head home as well.

Devil Summoner: Hero Insurrection

Giving this a little bump because I will start it soon. I probably should've been clear that I wanted to see what characters you guys wanted to run with.

It'd been delayed because of reasons.

Jigokuraku Academy

Hikari Inyouji

"Don't lose your way... But he probably will"
Movement > Area 5

---

Hikari was one of the last to exit the bus, barely aware of his surroundings as his body was only beginning to wake up. The conversations around him were nothing but murmurs as he rubbed his eyes and stretched, having slept the whole bus ride there. Even to him the atmosphere of the area they were placed in felt oppressive, or rather emptily oppressive to be more precise. It definitely felt different to a lively city. Was this place so backwater it's citizens were few in number...? Well no, he would be informed soon that this area was simply in a perpetual state of high crime rate, and that their final exam was to be... Cleaning it up?

"Ugh, I didn't expect to need to do something so serious so soon", he thought and muttered to himself. It was hero school sure, but they were no UA. He was hoping to get through a hero school nice and breezy and then figure out a decent job with decent income. His parents insisted on a hero school for his quirk, but he was pretty repellent to the idea of his quirk being the reason.

In any case he didn't want to work too hard... The exam was beginning at... Some point? All he heard was a roar and some people beyond this fog. As if this place wasn't gloomy enough. So what was the best thing to do here...? He could go rescuing citizens, maybe with this fog he can offer to do a little something with it to deal with the fog somehow, he could handily make glow sticks for people.

Well whatever, as everyone was heading off it seems he should figure out where to go too. Some people were heading left while others headed right, and so far just one person went sprinting off straight ahead. Indecisive, he began walking at a brisk pace through the middle, from there at least it may be easy to get to another area right? In any case feeling the urgency of this being an exam his body began to wake up as he sprinted in through the middle. Area 5 was it?

---

Upon arrival, Hikari came to the conclusion that he had made a terrible decision. Walking around was difficult, and the dummies left for them to collect and rescue were... Not in the most ideal of placements for him. He stood at an elevation surveying the area, the girl he saw running off here was yet to be seen for him. Maybe she entered at a slightly different point? Regardless, he was scratching his head figuring out how to help out... He needed some muscle. His light projected items have enough integrity to hold up areas for a short while, with which they could pull out their targets... He considered the concussive abilities of his projections, but he wasn't great at controlling them just yet. Safe is best during an exam after all.

He kept an eye out for others though, alone at best, he could lift whatever he can by hand, and he watched out for those types of targets as well. Blinking a few times, rubbing his eyes a bit more as his body finally completely woke up.

Dungeon Clearer: The Wonderful World of an Adventurer! An Adventurer's Guild RP

I may want to consider a particular figure from Kyoshiro's past to make an appearance as an arc villain if possible.

Also I've added him.

Dungeon Clearer: The Wonderful World of an Adventurer! An Adventurer's Guild RP

Kyoshiro the Autumn Blade

Name: Kyoshiro Sakazaki
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Rank: 6 of Swords
Appearance:
Personality: A man with a sort of air of mystery around him, which really makes sense since he doesn't talk about his past to others much at all, on top of that he really doesn't look like he's from around here, but he most certainly is a human. Yet he wields and wears things that seem entirely different to what they know and use. Kyoshiro himself though is well-spoken, possessing a keen perception for small details, and is the type who speaks only when necessary, making him naturally quiet, but observant as well. Sometimes it seems he isn't observing at all, but it's likely he has simply lost interest, or fallen asleep. Though it's not as if he isn't the sort who can make conversation, he just rarely starts it himself. It is known that his lips loosen when he is drinking, but not enough it seems for him to share details about his past, or private life either.

He has a disdain for people with no convictions, by that, he means people who sway to others' will without their own reasons, even should those convictions come into conflict with his own, or his duties, loyalties and so on, he will not hate those who stand for their beliefs, but he will do what is necessary. Among this he also likes to test his blade against skilled warriors, which is what he did for awhile until it caused him too much trouble. Now he simply seeks jobs from the guild that have some kind of chance to pit him against another swordsman, that is if he isn't already on a job to earn money to make ends meet.

Brief Backstory: A warrior from a far-away land, he arrived years ago and appeared to be heavily injured when he did. When asked about his circumstances he chooses not to share them. Upon arrival he was nursed back to health in a small fishing village some ways off by a young woman, to whom he still visits once in awhile to this day, and even sends a portion of his earnings, as he owes his life to her. It was clear on arrival he was not of this land, in truth he was running from his land after a power struggle had broken out, and those who supported the old regime were hunted. For his first year he feared that he may have pursuers, but alas they never came to be. He escaped to sea after no other recourse was left to him, but the reluctance to leave his homeland gave time for assailants to injure him as he fought off pursuers, leading to his condition. He thought he would die at sea, only to shipwreck at the aforementioned village.

In gratitude he worked at the village for a time, before he began his life as a drifter, going from place to place. In his homeland he was a wandering warrior, often pitting his skill against others, and so he quickly gained some small fame with roadside duels, though he never killed his opponents, he did manage to gain enmity from some of his defeated opponents and their friends, and it sometimes ended up with messy situations. Yet even in all this he was honorable.

Soon he caught wind of the unique occupation of an adventurer, something unknown to his land, and soon he too became one himself, and sees this as his new way of life in this land, leaving behind his old one. Even with how well things are going though, he cannot but help that his past may catch up with him eventually. In the line of duty and honor and servitude, he has killed and fought many, and a good number are not liable to forget.

His homeland is Akitsushima, a land that few in Estival are familiar with, though he has been recognized on rare occasion. He served a lord that defied the establishment in the land and paid dearly for it, but even with that, he himself was known to be quite the warrior, and in such a land, battles to the death were common enough. He would prefer not to talk of his homeland however.

His adventure back home

Kyoshiro was a retainer for an affluent lord. Good natured and bold, ultimately would be his own end after defying a corrupt and more powerful lord. It resulted in small violent disputes in their province with Kyoshiro defending his lord's honor even after his death at the hands of assassins, soon he would retreat and live as a ronin. Kyoshiro himself was a skilled swordsman and thus made a name by accident, repelling governmemt officials and very skilled bounty hunters until one in particular, former fellow student of the same style, former retainer under the same lord and now a government assassin hunted him down. Eventually he was nearly successful, and Kyoshiro slipped away to sea as his only option, though gravely wounded.

Equipment:
- Rakushouha: Meaning "falling autumn leaf" is the name of this exotic blade, one native to his homeland. He's carried it with him since he arrived years ago.
- Assorted blades: In his years here he's learned to use other weapons, as sometimes it cannot be helped. In particular on his person he carries small blades for utility and throwing, and a shortsword. He cannot obtain a shortsword from his homeland, so he makes do.

Skills:
- Swordsmanship: Kyoshiro is a swordsman first and foremost, though he utilizes his own style when using his katana, he is capable of wielding other blades to a limited degree.
- (Setsugetsukatsurugi Ryu) Blade of the Four Seasons Style: The name of his style of swordsmanship. The style is a 7 base form style, consisting of the three base forms, Snow, Moon, and Flower, each are just the names for the fundamentals of swordsmanship as well as the style's attributes, and then the four advanced forms, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring. While Kyoshiro is skilled in all seven forms, as he should be, he in particular is a master of the Autumn branch of the style, which utilizes rapid battoujutsu and iaijutsu techniques. As for the other three, Summer is two-handed techniques and wide-reaching strikes, and suited for longer weapons and even includes spears. Winter is a dual wielding style that utilizes a second smaller blade or two full sized blades, while Spring is a form that utilizes one blade, and accentuates fast and flying footwork. While he is capable of doing all of them in some degree, he definitely prefers his Autumn style.
- Bowmanship: He's capable of using one as part of his training, but he never carries one with him. He won't be able to shoot targets as far away as those who have dedicated themselves to the art, but he knows enough to hunt effectively.
- Hand to Hand: He has hand to hand techniques from his homeland to deal with threats non-lethally, or should he be caught off-guard has some way to fight back. It does not match up to those who dedicate themselves to this kind of art however.

Dungeon Clearer: The Wonderful World of an Adventurer! An Adventurer's Guild RP

So I guess my character as-is can be added?

Jigokuraku Academy

Hikari Inyouji

Character Quote: "Well who's this bundle of sunshine? Me, because this is a mirror"
Name: Hikari Inyouji (光　陰陽寺)
Age: 14
Height: 164cm
Weight: 91lb

Miscellaneous:
- He likes fireworks, in fact he can use his powers on fireworks to create a beautiful array.
- His favorite food is soba.
- He dislikes noise, so he will often be found a little at the edge of a group.
- He has a liking for the old hero shows from when he was a kid. It's to be noted that he enjoys a lot of the villain and anti-hero characters most though.
- His laugh is unexpectedly intimidating.
- His family name means "temple of duality".

Quirk: Light Projection

Description: Hikari is a hard individual to get a read on, regardless of the situation he seems unfazed and ever-cheerful and carefree. He is praised for a sound and logical mind, but criticised for his lack of care in certain situations, leading to details being lost to him in the moment. He isn't the most meticulous person, and has a strange presence where he will sometimes seem to come right out of nowhere. Amidst others he is less noticeable, as he makes no effort to stand out.

Whether or not he is someone who should become a hero remains to be seen, he makes little effort to excel for the time being, even with the potential of his quirk. Whether that be because he dislikes it, or just simply has no taste for hero work. It's not as if he is unwilling to lift a finger though, as anyone who has had a decent upbringing, it's only natural to extend a hand to help others, but he doesn't seem willing to go above and beyond and will simply do what is necessary. He's the type to enjoy a quiet afternoon playing games or idling by, and doesn't want to try too hard, for as far as he is concerned, there is no need to overwork oneself.

He may be a bit frustrating to motivate, but he is well-behaved, so you can always count on him to do the right thing, even if it's only to save himself trouble. At the same time he rarely will tell others if you're up to no good, so he is both a good listener and keeper of secrets.
