- If I must be honest, it highly depends on the plot at hand. I am an adaptable person, one who easily takes genre swings, but I mostly prefer fantasy, modern, medieval, mystery and mind-benders.
A modern fantasy, where terror strikes the hearts of many and justice must be served, be it cold, bitter, warm or sweet.
Thank you in advance to anyone who has taken the slightest interest of clicking on the topic and having a read. May this entertain and hopefully increase your interest in the story I am to present.
One day, in the outer layers of the spiritual vicinity of planet Earth, an irregularity was detected. It could not be classified as outworldly, nor as local upon being discovered and the trajectory which it used would change sharply at different intervals of time, even disappearing for one moment, only to reappear a few seconds after. This unknown entity traveled across the globe, yet never made impact with the ground and, due to the characteristic of being of the spiritual kind and not leaving the upper layers, it cloud not be noticed by normal people. Only special divisions researching the supernatural under a religious organization or government noted its existence, but could not gather data quickly enough in order to act. This bizarre strand of energy spent approximately twenty-four minutes circling in several upper levels before halting in place high above mount Everest and shattering into an unknown number of pieces, which could not be found by search parties later sent there.
Nothing of the sort occurred again, no mutations followed this one occurrence and no shifting in the spiritual segments was recorded. Such were the results of the investigation. There was no evidence of the event, other than what detectors of the organizations saved. Due to there being no damage, nor visible effects, the researchers agreed to simply monitor the area strictly and report any changes in their domains that did not have a definite cause in the international supernatural alert forums.
Over the course of seven years nothing that could be connected to the mysterious phenomenon appeared.
That was the finale of the message of a YouTube video posted by two young people, which was shared by them to the accounts of government agencies and the like of multiple countries around the world. The video featured the duo, a girl and a boy wearing a white fox mask and a black fox mask respectively, stating in a casual manner that they would blow up the building of the number one bank in Elpa City twenty four hours from the release of the footage, as well as a one minute silence for the loss of the CEO and CFO of the said bank, whom they intended to murder.
The footage was taken as a badly thought up, yet laughable joke by those who watched it. Dismissing it as a children's prank not only because of its informal, even friendly atmosphere, but also due to the fact that the youngsters assured they were not part of a terrorist, religious or any kind of organization, everyone continued on with their daily lives.
Until, of course, the promised hour came and the bank blew up from the inside.
Windows cracked, furniture flew and a fire roasted most of the people inside, who hadn't died from the collapsing structures. It was right before opening time, when the majority of staff were present. There were barely any survivors. Among the dead were the CEO and four share holders. The public was thrown into a state of panic, mourning for the lost and asking for an explanation whilst choked by their own tears. There was no logical explanation for the incident. Remaining security cameras showed there had been no one unauthorized or suspicious in the building that day, nor any time prior. None of the remaining few that had gotten away with their lives or those who had been absent from work remembered anything or anyone strange. There were no remains of a bomb or at least none could be found. The fire had been so intense that it had rendered everything to ashes, explaining why some people couldn't be found. The only certain facts the investigators knew were that the heart of whatever had happened had been on the sixth floor and that the main suspects were the two mysterious people from the YouTube video.
The theories of some were confirmed when three days later the duo made another announcement using the same method. They admitted being guilty of the bank disaster, yet insisted that whoever had to got what they deserved.
In addition, they declared that the next two targets would be one of the Ekans Inc. branches and Gedir Bank, both of which were located in the same miktiopolis, Elpa, but those that would follow would not be so easy to predict. At the end of the video they introduced themselves in a new incomprehensible fashion - as the owners of Death's and the Moon's notebooks.
In the following week, Ekans Inc.'s branch in Elpa City suffered a massive toilet explosion and pipe bursting, which killed several people. The CFO of the bank that had been the first victim of the group of two died of food poisoning and the Gedir Bank building in Elpa City had a gas leak and fire, which took the lives of many.
Investigators from all over the world gave their opinions on the case, yet they were only that - opinions. The perpetrators could not be identified in any way possible. Their faces were hidden by the masks and their hands were covered by gloves. Their voices had evidently been changed, yet even after hours of filtering both them and the background for sounds, nothing could be found. The videos were filmed on different backgrounds, all of which were completely blank colours. There was not a single clue to hint at their identities, nor at their location for that manner.
The YouTube account had been made with an old computer in an abandoned apartment and it had also been used for the uploading of the first video. There were no personal files on the computer, but the desktop wallpaper read "Good Job! =D".
The apartment remained under monitoring 24/7, yet they never returned to the scene. Apparently, the second time around misleading software, such as Tor, had been used in a way that even the hired hackers couldn't figure out. From that point onwards, the suspects continued using such back-doors and could not be tracked. The only time they truly surfaced, however, was when a new video was to be posted on YouTube. Other social media accounts were proven fake. Their targets were always only businesses in the area of the miktiopolis Elpa and, although numerous countries were responsible for the maintenance of peace, only half of them sent their specialists to help those already at the city. Due the mystery surrounding the duo's actions and their usage of riddles after their "Gedir Bank leak", organizations not under any government began to move. Despite their efforts, nothing could be found once again and it was agreed that only one would remain and set up base at Elpa City for documentation and research purposes. That was C.A.T., a group of illusive people, who aided the official investigators as much as they could or as much as they wished to.
After the "Gedir Bank leak" a total of nineteen other sudden cases followed, the culprits of which were always the two "notebook owners", known as Mor and Luna. They had introduces themselves as such from the very beginning, yet those were evidently mere code names. Rarely did they respond to comments, but twice complained on how they were being labeled as terrorists. In their opinion, they were restoring the natural balance by doing what they wished, because those, who had died, had done the same rather unjustly. Their targets were other bank branches, counting houses, law offices, even specific individuals such as actors and simple businessmen. None of them had any solid connections between each other, some even seemed random. The public's general opinion of the couple was negative, until the waters slightly shifted when they killed the president of a traveling agency, who had been known for fraud and theft for years, but had never been caught. Many of their targets had plenty of hidden or open gossip circling around them. Some citizens were even relieved that the trash was getting thrown out.
However, murder was murder and it could not be forgiven.
Three months after their arrival, Mor and Luna announced in their twenty second video that the "Goukoku veil" would be their last present to Elpa City. It was time to move on and lift the curtain on another stage.

And that, my dear audience, was the introduction to our mystery. The goal, I believe, is as clear as daylight - stop the "terrorists".
Now, you may ask yourselves "Where can my character fit in? How is the fantasy element going to be played?"
Allow me to explain.
In the beginning, you will be given the option to pick one out of two main groups: members of the police force and citizens, who, as my may imagine, will not fall under the category of "normal people".
When it comes to the group I have labeled as "citizens" simply for the interest check, they will be completely normal human beings, who happen upon a mysterious notebook in the beginning of the role-play.
["Death note" fans shush, please]
The number of notebooks is 22 and all of them stand for the major arcana in tarot. Each has a narrow rectangular bookmark, which is illustrated according to the card the notebook represents. Their covers are different in design, yet always hard and firmly bind. The moment a person opens a notebook, they instantly become its owner. Their name is written on the very first page, along with the individual rules of the notebook. These rules can not be changed, but while they do cause a certain amount of restrain, they also grant their owner different capabilities, classically called "supernatural powers", which are also tailored according to the represented card.
Before anyone takes a step back when I mentioned "tarot", please don't worry. There's absolutely no need to know anything about tarot, because it is presumed that most of the characters won't know a thing about it either. They aren't even expected to note that the notebook represents a card.
The number of open spots for these "special individuals" is 18. Two of the notebooks, Death's and the Moon's, are owned by the terrorists, the Wheel of Fortune's notebook is one I will temporarily be reserving and the World's notebook holds a far too important role to simply give away from the very beginning.
As for the police force, the open spots for members will be five for the time being. I don't want us to get too scattered. I will not be allowing members of the police to own notebooks for now.
That is it for now. I have a lot more information prepared, but this post has gotten rather large for an Int.Che. and I don't want to be frightening you all from the start. XD I hope you found this read enjoyable.
~Thank you for your time~
