Greetings and welcome to Kimetsu no Yaiba; Journey to the West, from out interest check HERE.
Kimetsu no Yaiba; Journey to the West.Greetings and welcome to Kimetsu no Yaiba; Journey to the West, from out interest check HERE.
It is the late 1920's to early 1930's, the "Demon" Muzan is dead and the Slayers are now without purpose, their duty done and the modernization of Japan is in full swing. What schools of the breathing styles which are left are deep underground and in the Rural areas as public backlash against them builds. China is a chaotic mess, Japan has made inroads in Asia and the Soviet Union is entering the first years of the Rule of Stalin, as America comes to love the Radio. The world is progressing. Vampires, Demons, ghosts, swords, they possessions of fools and the past. Myths of a bygone era.
However Duty is not yet finished for the Slayers and mysterious figures of Templar orders, the Vatican and China have reached the Japanese shore, seeking out the slayers. Muzan was not the first and nor was he the last. With hostile forces all around and a quickly changing world, hunters of old decide to go out with a final hoorah, a Journey across the old world to remove it's self of the plague, so that these legends will be just that, legends. From the inner reaches of Mongolia to the Castle of Count Dracula, this will be the final crusade. Werewolf, Jiangshi, Devil, Demon, Vampire, it doesn't make a damn, all must fall.
Even should the world not remember these hunters, even should the world hunt them and dismiss them, the threat of things which go bump in the night is very much alive and well. Besides not like the world has any more use of these Relics than it does the monsters.. But it never was about fame was it?

Welp, that's it, feel free to sign up, Character Skeleton and Rules will go here. You may also ask your questions here on in our Discord OOC. If your sheet is approved I'll give it some sort of rating, otherwise feel free to join the discord regardless of approved sheet or not. Approved sheets will also be added to the Lore listing.

1, This rp will be observing a one post a week minimum, I would like to see more, but I do not expect it. Each post should be at least two paragraphs, please no one liners. I am not a Grammar Nazi, lord knows my own is shit. So long as it's understandable, well, I don't care? Also shit happens, if you can't one week meet a posting period then please inform me or the rp in general.. If however you claim to be busy during that time but are too lazy to change the fact discord shows what games you are playing, then expect a permanent rp black list from me. There are truths, lies and then stupid lies. Please don't be stupid.
2, I encourage interactive rather than reactive roleplay, it is not a must and I have a full plot planned out. However if you would like to take an active hand or have an enemy idea you would like to see then by all means, post in our discord or dm me directly.
3, Co-GM's; given the scope of this RP I will be collecting Co-GM's to aid in the running of this rp should we have a large number of players. On that note, no, I do not have a set number of players in mind, if you want to join then do so. I would like to have one gm or co gm to every 6 players, the story may branch out along "missions" sort of with pc groups being mixed up during each "episode", so it is asked anyone seeking to be a co-gm has an active interest in the project and a willingness to play as a baddy.
4, Player injury and death. This will be discussed in the OOC, as I said in the interest check "play stupid games, win stupid prizes." That being said I have no intention on going full Darwin Awards nitpicking. That being said, droppers will likely have their pc's killed. More details to this will be spoken of among players in the OOC.
5, As we used to say in my younger years in the depot KISS, Keep it Simple, Stupid. In other words with your sheets pay attention to the lore and the general time period, don't try and sneak broken things into the sheet, some new age nonsense or out of this world super weapons and tech. No Drones, no power Armor, no book to summon Cthulhu. Keep to time period weapons of 1928-1932. Also melee weapons are okay.
6, Magic and Weapons. Given a lore happening, the purely "visual" effects of water, wind, fire, etc are now real. Firearms are good at slowing down "demons" and if one has a powerful enough weapon it is possible to outright kill the abominations so to speak, but typically a six shooter or normal rifle will not get the job done on it's own. The head must be fully separated from the body and in some cases the heart must be destroyed as well. Magic as a general rule can reach "anime" levels. Figure the basic spells we see in JRPG's or films, it's unlikely to be city level destruction, so much as beams, golemancy, fireballs and the like. Maybe even magics that have no direct impact per see such as using beasts to see for you or telekinesis. By and large however "Demons" will edge out humans in power and for those with unique genetic or magical abilities, will absolutely curb stomp a human.
7, Demon characters, I may allow a racially demon PC, however there are some rules to be observed in the creation of a demon PC.
- They must not feed on humans. Without exception this seems to cause terrible problems and turns them into a monster. You cannot have your cake and eat it too. Blood bags are an option.
- They must be from anywhere else in Eurasia or North America if we reach that far. With the defeat of Muzan, all "Demons" in Japan would have been "cured" or died baring sudden unforeseen changes in the cannon.
- They must be teamed up with, or at least connect to a human from on of the other national factions and the bios might be held to a higher degree of review than a normal hunter. Given how powerful the Demons are and the fact in the Japanese case so far we only know of at least Three that took to not eating humans and in two cases just drank donated blood. "Good" Demons are rare, they might also call themselves what they would be in their home region, Vampire, Dullahan, Jiangshi, etc etc. I am not against such characters but they should be well written.
* In addition to this rule, I'm allowing atm up to two characters per person, if you can be active with them I might allow for more, case by case basis, all you need however is ONE.
8, GM and Co-GM rulings are Final. While I may have a debate and engage with you, if there is an issue that is not acceptable then drop it.
9, Cursing and Romance; I don't mind players "getting it on" so to speak or developing feelings, but please keep it "pg" black screen or DM if you want to swoooon away. As to cursing, I don't give a shit. Just don't type like a Sailor, on the subject of that, while not redstar, this RP will be very violent in parts, you have been warned.
10, Honestly I made this many rules for the fun of it, yeah, that's uh, pretty much it, all other Iwaku rules apply, also, please use common sense. Don't god mod, post as often as you like provided two others have went after your last post or two days have passed, etc, etc.. Ah yes have fun, I hope?
