Sandswept Sky - Edge of Tostarena Town

---

Stepping off the edge of the building, Raiden had decided he had waited long enough in the little town, ultimately deciding that it would be best if he looked for work so that he could find a means of repair. He had recalled multiple key landmarks in the area that he previously had not much paid attention to, those being a vending machine which had advertised medicines and healing items, while the other was a sort of billboard with sheets of parchment and posters plastered on the cork.

Ultimately making the choice to check out the assortments of medicines advertised in the vending machine, Raiden took quick walking steps as he began wrapping around corners of the town, trying to recall where he had subsequently seen the machine. Once the machine came into eye sight of Raiden, he approached it, taking coin out from the inside of his poncho, prepared to pay his share for what was seemed to be similar to that Healing Draught the rabbit lady inside the wrestling arena described.

Something was incredibly off about this vending machine however, once Raiden prepared to put his cash in the machine, it beamed with light as it began... talking. "IF YOU NEED A HEALING, STEP RIGHT UP!" It spoke in a rich southern accent.

Startled, Raiden jumped back, drawing his blade from his back, ready to attack the machine if it made any funny moves. "What the hell!?" He exclaimed bluntly, sure he had seen talking robotic dogs, and had certainly seen a talking vending machine, but considering the timing of this machines speech, Raiden hardly considered it coincidental. He kept his stance, until the machine spoke again. "If you ain't dead, I'll keep ya that way!"

After sheathing his blade, sure this machine wasn't going to transform into a Metal Gear, Raiden approached the machine once again, picking up the change he had dropped in fright moments ago. After placing each coin into the machine Cachink, cachink, cachink! Raiden looked at the selections one last time to make sure there was... Nothing else? To be fair, the man had no idea what half of this shit was. Shields? "Health Now?" In the end, he figured it best he select which of the options (supposedly) worked, and selected the "Health Potion" option. Potions? What the hell was this place?...

This machine heralded multiple red flags aside from talking. It was incredibly dusty and sand-tinted. While the machine appeared to be made of a carbon metal, it was rusting. This machine was rarely used and was not being taken care of, meaning only one thing...

The machine made a noise that every American feared, the sound of vending machine failure. Whatever was supposed to roll off the shelf inside the contraption either got stuck or refused to get released from the springs inside. The most annoying part? It blinked back to life and decided to shout at Raiden once more, as if to torment the man for even trying to purchase an item.

"Sold!" It roared, despite not giving Raiden the item he requested from it. Most machines would spit out the coins it had previously been so eager to take, but this one did not. Frustrated, Raiden would grab the sides of the machine, make sure no one was looking, then begin to shake the contraption.

Raiden grit his teeth as he shook, speaking under his breath, "Come on you... Piece of shit!" Nothing. The machine produced nothing for Raiden. Angrily he punched the machine, now ready to give up entirely, turning around as the machine beamed "Do not harm the machinery." in that now annoying country accent.

Snapping around his shoulder, Raiden turned back to the machine as he voiced his displeasure openly with the machine. "Fuck the machinery!" As he extended his clawed hand into the innards of the machine, ripping out a health potion that he had previously paid for before. He examined the red liquid, trying to determine its origins before he even considered putting the viscous liquid into his mouth. There is no way this tasted good. Turning back again, Raiden began walking away before the machine gave a final testimony: "See ya real soon! I'm sure,"

Now even more frustrated with the machine, Raiden quickly drew his sword and sliced the machine down the diagonal as liquids from the products inside leaked and their bottles fell out. Now feeling the judgmental stares of the locals, Raiden scratched his head as he met the gaze of the passers. "Uh... Put it on my tab?" He shrugged, now unsure of what to do as he quickly ran away from the situation.

...

After leaving the situation that Raiden had created near the town square, he navigated the streets to look for the cork billboard he thought about. There seemed to be very few... "adventurers" and the such huddled around it, but the few that were there parted kindly to let Raiden through so that he may examine the board as well. There seemed to be a few missions and bounties up right now, many others seemingly being claimed or completed by others who had taken refuge in the town. There were, however, three specific requests made by the locals that stuck out the most to Raiden.

The first request was to deal with some cacti nearby that have been causing issues crossing the desert. The objective there was obvious. The second was to investigate anomalies from a nearby ghost town to the west. Obviously he would be debriefed on the situation should he choose this mission. But the last flier was the quest that Raiden ultimately decided to take. His goal was to travel to the northeastern fortress to take care of a looming, giant monster. He doubted the description of said monster at first, but after all he's seen both in this world on his own, he supposed he could give it the benefit of the doubt. Besides, Metal Gears were kind of in their own way giant monsters, so how could this be any different.

Deciding it best to take a dune buggy from one of the tourist guides, Raiden would seek to find a method of somewhat discreet transportation to the described location. Most travelers became wary of the location, as it was no longer safe for visitors due to the threat described on the flier, so finding a driver however, may be near impossible. The man had become lost, not sure of where to go to find any form of second hand travel. He had never considered himself a tourist and any time he did need to travel it would either be some form of government agency dispatching him or Raiden simply driving himself.

It was then Raiden had found at the edge of town an area he could rent a buggy to transport him to his mission. He pulled out more coins from his poncho. This job better be legitimate He thought to himself, staring at the few coins he had left. There was just barely enough to get him there and back in full payment, but there would be nowhere for him to return if he was out of cash. He paid the local in the station, nodding as he exited just as quickly as he arrived.

Throwing one leg over the side of the buggy, Raiden couldn't help but feel somewhat excited to finally be back in action. A grin would creep over his face as he adjusted his sombrero. His visor would snap shut as he started up the buggy, and began driving into the distance, towards where his UI showed him was the Northeast. He looked back at the town as he bid it a temporary goodbye, clutching onto the mysterious potion he had grabbed earlier.

"¡Ole!"

His jet black hair is accented with white patches and is slicked back with tufts sticking out on the sides. He usually flaunts a traditional black and white kimono and a scarf. His eyes are oval shaped with a steely blue gaze.

Defining features: His most defining feature is his absurd hairstyle, which he obviously takes too much time during the day to maintain. He is unusually pale as well, which can make him somewhat easy to spot as well.

Curse Technique Name: Split Tails of Orochi

Curse Technique Type: Shikigami

Curse Technique Description: Matsumi possess the ability to summon four Shikigami based off of World-Wide Folklore and Mythology. Each of his Shikigami harness a different worldly element that can be crossed with another to create elemental chimeras. All of his Shikigami are long of body, able to create quick striking attacks.

Curse Technique Abilities:

Ryujin - The Dragon God of Ocean and Sea based off of Japanese Folklore possessing properties of water-based cursed techniques.

Salamander- A fire drake Shikigami based off of English Folklore possessing properties of fire-based cursed techniques.

Raiju - A Beast of Lightning based off of Japanese/Chinese Folklore possessing properties of Storm-based cursed techniques

Kamaitachi - The Dust Devil/Air Weasel based off of Japanese Folklore possessing properties of Air-based Cursed techniques.

Rainbow Spiral - Combines two of the Shikigami to fight at the same time, crossing their abilities.

Orochi - Combining all four at the same time summons Orochi, the 8 Headed dragon, master of elements.

Reverse Jujutsu Technique: Waters of Ryujin - A rejuvenating stream of water is produced from the Dragon God Shikigami, restoring the stamina of whomever it targets. Takes a lot of cursed energy to produce.

Specialty: Offensive

Drawbacks: Many of Matsumi's Shikigami produce AOE, which can cause crossfire in some instances. While the Shikigami are strong, they are still Shikigami, meaning that once they die they are officially out of battle. Matsumi must maintain two simultaneous hand gestures the summon Shikigami.

---

Personality Description: Matsumi is an incredibly powerful sorcerer who is rumored to have tackled multiple special grades curses at once. His praise in skill of use of Shikigami sorcery has made him extremely confident in his skills, which makes some people see him as arrogant and uncaring. That is however far from the case. Due to his difficult background, he has grown to value human lives and will fight to protect even a stranger.

He is very kind and reserved towards his underlings, often taking young sorcerers under his wing to teach them new skills and training them past their limits. He has a very stoic personality, which he makes up for with praise and kind words. Almost always grinning besides in dire situations.

Backstory: Matsumi's life is often regarded as confusing to most Jujutsu Sorcerers. Born in the slums of Tokyo, he was often disregarded by many and was often a target to violent bullying. Most nights he would come home to no food or water and often found himself begging for whatever scraps could be given to him. After a long difficult day of school (his usual schedule of going to each class then getting the shit beaten out of him) he returned home... Or what he thought was his home.

What he stared upon was no home. It was the rubble and ruins of what used to be his entire block engulfed in a burning inferno, caused by what appeared to be a humanoid husk of flames and ashes. It watched the young Matsumi as it snickered, feeling the negative emotions well up in the boy. Devastated, the boy fell to his knees as the demon approached him for a well known cause.

Light would beam from young Matsumi's hand as he summoned a small lizard like beast unknowingly in his sorrow. His eyes drifted upward to see the newly manifested dragon ready to defend it's summoner. The "demon" would seemingly take a step back to avoid the boy, however there were more cards in play at the time.

...

After many years spent in an orphanage, honing his skills with the spirit he had summoned so long ago, Matsumi had grown to learn he was saved by what is called by a Jujutsu Sorcerer who was hunting down that "demon" classified as a special class. After graduating from Jujutsu High, he vowed to slay the curse with his own hands some day, regardless of skill.

Matsumi is now considered the best Shikigami user who did not obtain his powers through lineage, but rather through the choice of the spirits. He is a very versatile and strategic sorcerer who puts the lives of others above his own. His mission in life is to prevent tragedies like his from happening to as many people as he can help.

Skills: Matsumi is notably skilled in martial arts, charisma, parkour, and knowledge in Japanese folklore due to his Curse Technique.

Strengths: Is a natural leader, is very confident in his abilities, is loyal to those he trusts, large amounts of cursed energy.

Weaknesses: Always comes to the aid of those who needs him, even if it throws him in danger, isn't physically strong, relies way too much on his Shikigami.

Equipment: Matsumi always comes prepared with a first aid kit and (at minimum) a dagger.

OFFICIAL 0TH POST IS NOW UP!!!!!!

Jujutsu Kaisen: Prelude to the Demon King

Jujutsu Sorcery

The world is filled with demons who possess abilities and techniques beyond those of basic human comprehension. These demons are unseen to the untrained eye and yet they plague this world without anyone knowing about it. Their wide range of abilities can cause a wide range of disasters from just being a daily nuisance to creating tsunamis in a matter of seconds. Created by negative emotions and building tensions, there is only one way to defeat these monsters: exorcism. These monsters are what are referred to as Curses.

However, there are people in this world who possess similar powers to those of Curses. Through birth if they have high amounts of cursed energy, they alone carry the ability to perform exorcisms on Curses. These people come in many shapes, sizes, and have wide ranges of powerful offensive and defensive abilities. With their hand, they keep the world safe from curses. These individuals are the ones known no other than as the Jujutsu Sorcerers.

The life of a Jujutsu Sorcerer in Tokyo, Japan was never one for the faint minded. Everyday was spent battling terrifying Curses, or training to defeat them. It was always a busy life that was constantly changing, whether a Sorcerer liked it or not. Their lives were always on the line and they constantly found themselves throwing their lives in the way of others. The world they worked for was scary and if they didn't do it, then who would?

Jujutsu High

The world of sorcery had changed significantly over the past few years, there's no doubt about that... Everyday more and more ordinary humans began developing innate sorcerer abilities and those with abilities inherited from lineage became stronger than their ancestors. Unique abilities began appearing more and more rapidly, each one being more and more impressive than the last. There would be many great sorcerers going to the small school of Jujutsu High, that was for certain.

As the curtain for new students lifted, expectations for great students rose, allowing greater heights to be met. Students would be tested further, trained to be greater, and given assignments that would push past their limits, making them stronger. Each year would hold the expectation of raising stronger sorcerers than the last.

They wished that were the case forever. The fact of the matter is that they still hosted many of the most powerful, destructive, evil sorcerers who would later become equally as powerful curses, and that definitely took it's toll on the world. Many of these evil sorcerers would have unlocked the seal to curses that used to roam the lands freely unchecked and killing whoever they pleased... Curses have existed in opposition to humans, and as the stronger species, naturally were a threat. Sorcerers had always taken care of them, yet...

Where It Stands Now

With the arrival of the first years at Jujutsu High, the second and third years were in the midst of heavy training, keeping to their own with their practices and missions as they learned to become great Sorcerers. Many of the first years had much to learn, but brought their individual talents and techniques to the school. Teachers were ecstatic and the council grew hopeful. Well, most of the council was excited for the new arrivals...

With the lack of students from well known Jujutsu families clans, the council grew skeptical of the new age of student's abilities, whether they would make satisfactory sorcerers or not. Where it stands now, they cannot afford another student turning to evil sorcerers. Sure, it was never the students fault in that matter, but if it keeps blood off of the council's hands, they'd blame anyone else for making a villain. They had to uphold their reputation, and if one stray hair ruined their appearance, they would cut it off without hesitation, human or not. That was their code.

It had been a few weeks since the first years had reconciled themselves into the ranks at the school. The lowerclassmen of the school had yet to meet their upperclassmen who spent their time out on missions nearly everyday. The most prominent member being one of the third years, who everyone knew so little about... even the third years themselves.

Sorcerer missions had become more common in their curriculum as curses became more and more prominent in the world. Disappearances were happening more frequently and humans kept dying for unknown reasons... What was causing these disasters to happen so often? What had changed?

The council would be investigating this, but for the time being, it would be up to the current sorcerers to deal with any imminent threat of Curses.

Notes

• Players will start with a relatively normal student character to play as, but will later get the chance to create a sorcerer or villain to play as.
• Canon characters and the world will be handled by me. Please do not try to overstep boundaries as a player in the RP. By this I mean do not avoid situations I the GM put you in. Ex. If I say you get hit, you get hit, no dodgey dodgies.
• Characters must be original in the aspect they are not based off of another canon character in the series. If you wish to play a character of family lineage to a canon character, please run it by me first.
• Character sheets must be placed in OOC for further approval.
• Should go without saying, no OPing, no Mary-Sues, and most importantly, no stealing command of the world.

In Regards to Cursed Energy

This is very important! Please read this!!!

I will be very lenient with how your character deals with using cursed energy, HOWEVER, if I feel a character has expended too much of their power, I will state in a post that your character is getting weaker. While I feel that many characters will be able to break their boundaries, I will award you with new powers and abilities when I feel it is deserved (Ex. You defeat a big bad). If I state that your character is low on stamina/cursed energy or has taken too many hits and is rendered unable to fight, they are unable to fight.

Basically a rule of: IF I SAY YOUR CHARACTER DIES, THEY DIE.

This does not necessarily mean I will kill your character, this does mean that if I say your character has had enough, they had enough.

• Curses are more common and much stronger.
