Hi, new game idea from Zaku!
Misaki & Sango, Immortal Huntresses
This story takes place in early Edo period Japan (16th century) in an alternate reality where demonic monsters called Immortals (for their eternal life-span and seeming resistance to conventional weapons) ravage the countryside and prey on defenceless remote villages.
Misaki and Sango are two sibling hunters with nothing but hatred in their hearts for the creatures that killed their parents and corrupted their peaceful mountain village with a supernatural plague. They have devoted their lives to wiping out these unnatural creatures every chance they get, and saving as many innocent lives as possible along the way.
I’m looking for a heroic young hunter to meet the girls by chance, perhaps saving their lives or being saved by them. Maybe he’s the talented young star warrior from a nearby village, maybe he’s a travelling priest seeking to slay demons, or perhaps he’s from a secretive village of ninja who were attacked and decimated by powerful Immortal. I want to take on the role of both girls equally, but I’m not entirely against someone taking on one instead of a male lead.
I’d really enjoy playing with one of you girls who’s curious about playing a guy, but I can’t discount the possible male interest either so I’m gonna stay open minded in the hopes I can get this up and running. Something I love is entirely unrealistic situations played out very realistically, so I want to bring as much of that into the game’s style as possible. I seem to be going through a phase where I'm having tons of fun playing girls (probably since all my guys are jerks) so I'm keen to get some more practice in with one of my favourite RP settings, mythical Japan!
Misaki fights with a longbow and Sango an arquebus, and they often argue about which is more effective. I see Misaki as something of a level headed intelligent type and Sango as more impulsive and laid back.
Potentially the game would be exotic heavy, and I’m not opposed to turning it into a small game if there’s strong interest. I do love to GM~
