Humans and Ghouls have been at war for years, the co-existence of both races seemingly incapable of peaceful living. Human's have become more aggressive with the culling of Ghouls and patrolling the different wards. Investigators, Doves, hunting down any and all Ghouls with little regard to how dangerous the Ghoul is to human society. Ghouls have started to form bands, gangs, looking to protect themselves from the increased threat of the CCG. Various Ghoul Gangs began to form in different Wards, claiming territory and starting wars with other Ghoul's, hoping to draw the attention and activity of the Doves to focus on other wards and stay away from their own.

The CCG has instilled fear into the Human Population all across Tokyo's Wards. The media constantly having story after story about the gruesome horror that innocent civilians have suffered at the hands of Ghouls. Some CCG investigators are going too far, killing Humans that are suspected to be Ghouls or hiding the identities of Ghouls and the death of these innocent humans are being pinned on by random Ghoul attacks and the scene is created and shown to be like a Ghoul had done it. Multiple detention centers have been built in various Wards, though Cochlea in Ward 23 is still the largest and houses the most dangerous. These minor detention centers were built due to the influx in Ghouls being captured, being studied and used to make weapons for the Investigators. Prototype Quinque's are being developed from Ghouls with Kakuja's, turning these rare and unique cases into various 'armor' types that enhance the abilities of select chosen Investigators.

Ghouls are at the throats of one another, each hellbent on turning the other end to preserve their own life out of fear of being caught by the Doves. While the Humans and CCG are banding together out of media driven fear and the hellbent nature of the CCG on exterminating Ghoul life. The Ghouls have never been more divided. Groups and gangs have been created only to be quickly shut down by the CCG, driving deep fear into the Ghouls of truly making an attempt at unifying and coming together as they believe it only paints a larger target. Their only hope is a faction that is considered a mere myth, The Syndicate. A group the eludes even the grasp of the CCG...for now.

The 15th Ward is where the story takes place about a group of Ghouls who slowly come together trying to survive at all costs when given the opportunity to finally fight back comes knocking on their door.

Hello all! I have been coming back from a major hiatus from roleplaying and focusing on improving my life and getting everything into a good spot, only deciding to come back when I think it was right and when I actually have time to write, and in doing so I decided that I would try and see if their was any interest in a Tokyo Ghoul based RP. An AU setting where many of the major events from the Manga/Anime do not happen in this setting. I do have a general idea for where I want to go with this but it would start similarly to Tokyo Ghoul, about a group of Ghouls coming together and forming a community in the Ward they live in, protecting it from all threats.

I also wouldn't mind if someone wanted to become a Co-GM and aid me in this story, helping guide players and keep people posting. If this gets enough attention I will give a fleshed out OOC with proper rules and guidelines of what is to be expected but some up front things to be expected are Quality Posts at the minimum of 1-2 times a week.

I have updated the basics a little bit more of what direction I'm wanting this story to go. Of course if this gets off the ground and any questions you may have just ask here and I can answer for you, though I will point out a few things first.
  • Currently the roleplay is intended to focus on a group of Ghouls but if the thread garners enough interest and people, then the Dove's perspective may be opened up to have characters in.
  • Player Made Ghouls will potentially have the chance to develop a Kakuja.​
  • Any other questions should be asked and will be posted up here with an answer!​

Touka is Best Girl. You got me.
 
Thanks for the interest, I sort of updated the opening post with the direction I'm trying to go with the story. Of course we will see how much attention and interest this garners.
 
I think it's pretty cool, you write well. Definitely on board to play a Ghoul.
 
*Raises hand* I totally would love to be involved in this. I actually have an OC of mine that fits well into this universe haha.
 
Welcome, a few more people and I can work on the ooc

I think I may have a character that would fit this perfectly.
 
Hello, I'm also interested.
 
Looking for about 2-4 more players

Five could be enough to at least get us started, i don't think ya wanna deal with posting orders when ya got 7-12 players. Besides, they can always join while in progress and it could be an interesting way to introduce new characters
 
I could possibly be interested as well
 
Great, I will work on the OOC tonight and tomorrow, hopefully having it up tomorrow.
 
Alright, I was called into work on my day off so I'm working on the rest of the OOC today and while working I was wondering if the group wanted a discord for most of the discussion and speaking?
 
Sorry but I don't do Discord. Go ahead though.
 
It won't be mandatory, I'm just seeing the consensus of the group if they want it or not. If not, I'm not going to make it.
 
I would appreciate one, but it isn't necessary.
 
I don't mind using Discord, but might not check it very often.
