True to my word, I've spent the last couple of days and a few sleepless nights doing all this as I wasn't expecting such a turn out from people wanting to see where this went. Jesus, here we go; this is going to be the recruitment thread. This isn't going to be a first come first served kind of deal as I'll be looking over your sheets myself and correcting anything that might be any lingering issues.  I don't want this to be a bunch of Gary/Mary Sues with dark and tragic pasts or powers that god himself might need to do a 'Wait a sec what?'.  I want my writers to have fun in the game I'm creating here.

Brief Synopsis...

Ten years ago, after 'The Gate' that connected the real world with the monster world opened, some of the ordinary, everyday people received the power to hunt monsters within the Gate. They are known as 'Hunters'. However, not all Hunters are powerful. The Shuma Guild has been tasked with what seems like an impossible task once they signed up with one of the top five Guilds in the world called 'White Tiger.' To gather low ranked Hunters and have them become something through countless hours of shedding blood, sweat, and tears. An official invitation was sent out across the world via connections Shuma Guild had left with a simple message and coordinates of their location in Japan.

'Make something of yourself. Join Shuma Guild.'

Below is a quick Q&A section that I answered from the interest thread. However, some of my previous answers will be more in-depth as I feel like its time.

Will this be using a system game or Freeform?
The answer is that it will be a freeform, though with a bit of constraint. In no shape or form will this be some DnD system in the works, that's not my intention. Yes, it's one of the reasons I wanted to make this game.

What influenced you making this?
DnD, Final Fantasy 14, Monster Hunter, and the most significant factor my boredom was the reason I stayed up the last two nights working on Worldbuilding for this game.

How did the Hunters get their magical abilities?
Your character and countless others gained the ability from being 'Awakened', basically making them something above a normal human. What normally would be a wound that would take months to heal over time can take a few minutes if someone heals them, scrapes, bruises, etc. even less time.

The monsters can break out into the real world, as happened in North Korea. Is that right?
Correct. Its called a 'Dungeon Break' which the creatures which are inside can come out and cause chaos. However, they can still be defeated as the Boss of the dungeon is its core, and killing it causes it to close after a few hours.

How is it determined which powers a Hunter will get? Is it based on a person's past, their mindset, or something else?
It's determined by something which no one knows about currently. The gates, monsters, and the powers are given by a power that hasn't presented itself as it has motives that will be revealed as the game goes on.

You mentioned that characters go through changes and grow out of the Fighter/Caster/Healer archetypes - does that mean that they are stuck with fixed archetypes at the start, or is there some customization?
All characters start as one of the four: Fighter, Ranger, Caster, and Healer. As you go around and grow, options will open up to advance yourself in that path. However, if you want to be a Caster who uses a sword that is possible though you will never be stronger, then a Fighter or a Healer who wants to focus on spells is also possible, but they will never be as potent as someone who started at that point.

Are there classes or Hunters who can make magical items or weapons?
Yes, but for a character to make their weapons, there is only ONE path, and its called 'The Hephaestus.' It will be possible to have someone make your weapons and armor, but it will take time, money, and connections. There will be people selling items for characters to use.




This is the Character sheet in an interview format. If you wish to add more to the interview via questions, remarks, and so on to make it unique, then please go ahead, I would love to see what you can come up with as long as it answers the questions provided.


” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”

” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?”

” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?”

” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”

” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."

” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding... mostly.”

” We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”

”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”

” Alright, that's enough for today. We have your information, and the World Hunter Association has set you and the rest up with a hotel until you're given the word. If you get a call, come back here in two days.”

Are the ranks permanent or can hunters raise their ranks through training and such?

LeSane

The rank of the Hunter goes up through training and what they've done that's correct.

” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”
Alfred Birche
” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?”
Twenty eight years, Ma'am.
” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?”
E-rank Ranger, Sir.
” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”
Society generally stagnates, with little room for upwards growth. Hunting remains a meritocratic venture.
” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."
I'm a team-player that's aware of his own limitations. Aside from that? You should have a practical exam portion to this test.
” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding mostly.”
I ran a dungeon on my own, skipping in and out to get some sort of medicinal herb that grows in there--and I'm still alive. So not only do I play well in a team, I can handle myself if I get separated.  I'm not risk adverse--but don't think I allow myself to be stupid, either.
"Isn't that--"
You mean, couldn't I have gotten into serious trouble? Yes, I absolutely could have. But I don't leave people behind.
”I see... We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”
Studying monster anatomy. Mostly, I'm interested in culinary potential here. There's no reason we shouldn't use all the parts made available to us, if they have a use.
”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”
One of my long-term goals is another dangerous one. I want to see if the monsters can't somehow be tamed, domesticated, or what-have-you. Imagine an entirely new class-- Beastmaster.
” Alright, that's enough for today. We have your information, and the World Hunter Association has set you and the rest up with a hotel until you're given the word. If you get a call, come back here in two days.”
Okay. I'll be around. Know any good knife stores?

” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”

It is great to be here! My name is Erika Satsuna.

-Shakes the interviewer's hand firmly before sitting down.-

” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?”

Am I being ID'ed?

-Searches for ID and panics a little when she can't find it.-

I know I don't look it but I am twenty! Honest!

-Stands up and looks all over herself to continue the search for her ID-

There we go! See!

-Proudly hands over her ID to the interviewer and smiles awkwardly before sitting back down.-

” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?”

-Bites lower lip shyly-

I am a Fighter and recently became a D class. I know it's not much but I am always trying my best to improve myself.

” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”

I guess because I have been doing it for so long it has just become a routine that I find myself a bit lost without continuing it? Ya know?

” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."

I am always looking to improve myself and also help those who want to improve. I hope to grow with the group... if you accept me that is.

-Laughs nervously-

” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding mostly.”

-Looks a little disappointed-

Oh... right. Erm.

My mother is a nurse and my father is a herbalist. Thanks to those two things I have vast knowledge in the workings of the human body. I have found these to be useful when hunting because when my teammates have been injured in any way in the past I have been able to help them get the medical attention they need. It has also helped me find weak spots when fighting those beasts. I am not sure what else there is to tell since I grew up like every other average boring person.


” We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”

In my spare time, I either do freelance photography or help out my father at his store if he needs the extra pair of hands.

”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”

Some times I scare myself with how hungry I get after a good hunt.

” Alright, that's enough for today. We have your information, and the World Hunter Association has set you and the rest up with a hotel until you're given the word. If you get a call, come back here in two days.”

-Bows slightly-

Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to your reply.

Her concept is basically being able to use herbs, salves, essential oils, etc, to coat her weapons with poisons, create mini mist bombs, and cause various status ailments to her target. This, while also being able to provide antidotes to anyone if they are ever afflicted with any poisons. I guess the hurt and heal type?

” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”

The name's Takuya Shiraishi, my good man! Nice to meet you~

” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?”

Hey now, I'm old enough to drink, drive  and do all the dirty things that would get you in trouble! ... Don't believe me? Fine, fine, I have my ID here somew- AHA! Here, read it and weep! A good, official twenty-three! -Waits with arms folded, before rubbing the back of his head.-** ... Sorry. I get carried away in card games, so... Yeeaaah, we can let this slide, right? ... Right?

” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?”

'Thank god, I was worried my being me too much would make me seem not like a Hunter. Go, me!'

Ah, uh, Deee... Okay, no, it's E class, E class Caster. ... Whaddaya mean you're not surprised!?

” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”

Ah... Well, with all due respect, a normal life's kind of overrated. Everyone has one, I just figure I can spend mine better than doing the things I usually do. ... Also I may or may not have money riding on me becoming a half decent hunter and living long enough to collect it, so that's also an important factor.

” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."

Excuse me, what? I, uh, don't know how to tell you this, but I haven't sold myself to anyone for about a year now  and you're... Not really my ty- Oh you mean my skills! I, uh, knew that, hahah... Hah... *Ahem* Anyway, I like to think I can be competent when it comes to co- Hey, are you snerking? ... Contrary to what you might be thinking, I'm pretty good at disturbance and interception routines. Sowing discord among enemies, making a little noise so allies can get easier hits. I'm a team player, I just have a tendency to put myself out there and draw the spotlight to me by being flashy. That's not so bad, right? I'm not INTENTIONALLY clamoring for the attention, it just comes naturally. -Shrugs-

” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding mostly.”

Hard case, aren't you? Yeah, I guess when you're dealing with me, skepticism is a given. Well, I guess if I'm being honest, I may also have some thievery tendencies, and I might have gotten arrested twice for public indecency, but it's all been for good causes! ... Fine, fine, believe me or don't, but that's the truth. ... My folks? ... They're good people, living an honest life and hoping their son makes something of himself rather than being a troublemaker. Otherwise, as long as I know they're safe, I can play my best without worry or fear.

” We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”

Oh, I actually have a part time job handling deliveries. Bikes, Cars, occasionally a truck,  I can more or less drive pretty well, so it helps me when I need to get around delivering stock for stores, or something less extravagant, like the pizzas I owe my friends if I don't land this job...

”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”

... Oh, I could have put my thieving thing here. WELL, I guess that's out in the open. Otherwise, I can't really think of much else, I like to think I'm an open book... I guess I can be a pretty big mischief-maker and clown? I mean, if the majority of these responses I gave weren't evident enough I mean. I might be silly, but I'm no less a threat, I feel~

” Alright, that's enough for today. We have your information, and the World Hunter Association has set you and the rest up with a hotel until you're given the word. If you get a call, come back here in two days.”

Sweet. Hey, before I go, you know where I can find a restroom around here? Been holding it since I got in here... Down the hall and to the right? Great, thanks! -Zooms off-

Takuya considers himself Bi, learning more to females. However if a guy is cute enough, he can and will likely flirt with them. Otherwise, consider him picky.  :P More often than not, when not fooling around, he's always eager to see how he can twist and evolve his Caster capabilities in ways that might surprise or otherwise amuse himself and allies.

Character Ons: Teasing, Switchplay, Biting (Honestly a lot more stuff but this section would get hella wordy)
Character Maybe: ... You know, I've never really considered what would go into a 'Maybe' pile. >>; I tend to be either okay with things or full on 'NOPE'.

LeSane, if someone is looking to create a character with an end goal of becoming an Arcane Archer able to enchant and fire magical arrows how would they go about it? I'm assuming start as Ranger and then eventually learning spells like a Caster, is this correct?

Xurtan

*squints at all the Code Vein symbols* ;)

Also hm. I take it you want us starting at relatively low ranks, yeah? E-D? Are you able to give us an example of number of powers/scope of powers within each of the lower tier ranks? I'm still debating if I want to throw my hat in or not, but thinking about it.

So to answer your question yes you're correct to be what's essentially an Arcane Archer you'd have to get to Artemis then finally Hermes. I'm still doing in-depth sections in the world-building.

For story purposes, my recommendation would be starting off as An E-rank. The guild was tasked with training hunters due to their contract for signing up with one of the top guilds. As for the number of powers and scope given to you would be like anyone who starts off in a game limited and gradually increase as the player progresses.

The best two examples I can give you is if you play DnD is being an lvl3 character and the options are there, but it's usually up to you with what you.
The second being most RPGs though that's too many to actually count.

” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”  I go by many names, for the purpose of today you may call me Lilla

” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?” I'm 22

” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?” D class Healer.

” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”

I don't class myself as a hunter, I'm a healer and as such i take my job as helping and healing others seriously, the people who need my help the most are hunters, so I often travel with them.

” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."

I work well with a team, I have a wide knowledge of edible herbs and berries as well as healing knowledge. I'm also not afraid to pitch in and bash a few heads together if needed.

” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding mostly.”

*Shrugs* well if my good looks and skills aren't enough then I guess you could choose another healer.....one who may not be able to save everyone. Your choice.

” We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”

I travel mostly, going from town to town and help out with any sickness or ailments. Sometimes they pay me in coin or food.

”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”

Secrets? Well if you must know i once had to poison someone! I've always regretted it, unfortunately at the time I had fallen in with a bad crowd. They took my sister as collateral and I didn't get much say in the matter.

Power: Lunar healing- Can heal others using the power of the moon itself. Lilla can use any lunar phase to draw power, her levels of power however come from how much of the moon is showing. If the moon is full then Lilla can be very powerful on a night with no moon Lilla has little to no power which is why she carries a staff that holds a small amount of lunar energy within the stone. The level of power Lilla has access to also effect the success of her healing. So fingers crossed no one gets a serious injury on a night with no moon!

” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”
My name is Samantha Tremaine. Yes, I am one of those Tremaines.
” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?”
Twenty-five.
” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?”
I am an E-Class Caster. Unfortunately, I haven’t had many opportunities to hone my skills.
” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”
It’s… well… I think it’s important… you know… to defend the world from monsters. If we don’t do it, who will?
” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."
Well, someone with my upbringing comes with certain talents that may not be readily available to the population at large, and especially not the kind of people who generally apply to become hunters. Given, some of that is etiquette and protocol and probably not very useful to you, but other skills are quite applicable I assure you.
” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding mostly.”
Please, no background checks if you would. There isn’t that much about me that you haven’t read in the papers – other than the casting. That’s something that’s been covered up. A few tests may be in order though. I would be more than happy to have you put me through my paces so to speak.
” We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”
One of the advantages of being a Tremaine is that I don’t have to worry about day-to-day finances. Though if I start working here, that may change.
”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”
My family doesn’t know I’m here. They are very suspicious of hunters, doubly so of the magical ones. If there were an operation, I’d be seeing a doctor right now. But the truth is, I don’t want to see a doctor about this. Magic isn’t something that should be cured. I like casting spells. I want to be a hunter. Believe me, it would be much, much better for both of us if my family remained ignorant of my current whereabouts.
” Alright, that's enough for today. We have your information, and the World Hunter Association has set you and the rest up with a hotel until you're given the word. If you get a call, come back here in two days.”
“Thank you kindly. Please contact me on the number provided. It’s a burner phone, so we will have to make arrangements for further contact.”

Power: Wave manipulation – alteration of light and sound. (If you don’t want both I can pick one.)
Weaponry: Keeps a flashlight to use as a club, but she’s more dangerous when she turns it on.
Appearance: https://i.imgur.com/WXqgDGA.png
Anything else that doesn’t fit with the interview: Samantha is the only child of a wealthy family. She has been pampered and protected and sheltered from the world. To make matters worse, the Tremaines have a definitive bias against Hunters in general and Casters in particular. They have done everything possible to suppress Samantha’s powers. She is effectively escaping from their control and there may be consequences for Shulma for taking her in.

Character Ons: Samantha has been relatively sheltered, which means most of her experiences have been on the sly – sneaking a willing servant into her room, perhaps with those responsible for her day-to-day upbringing deliberately looking the other way. This means she’s used to and most comfortable with being in control, and keeping things quiet tends to be her default mode.
Character Maybe: That doesn’t mean that she wouldn’t react well to the tables being turned on her and somebody else taking the lead. It would be a novel experience, and well in keeping with her motivations for joining Shuma in the first place.
Character Offs: Rougher play is definitely off the table as well as most of the usual offs in these situations.

Out of curiosity, how detailed/specific or vague do you want us to be in regards to powers or abilities? We're seeing people run the gamut really, which makes it hard for me to personally get an idea of power scale. *snicker*

For example, there's a large difference between say, 'Ice Control' and 'Conjure Ice Dagger', you know?

Hey, this looks interesting  :-)  hehe I'm reading Solo Leveling too (the header)





” Thank you for coming to the interview can you please tell us your name?”

Mateo Ignacio Tomas Varela Fernandez, but you can call me Mateo or Varela, chabona. Anything you want.

” We assume you're of legal age, but for the record, can you address it now?”

Twenty-nine, not too young for you I hope?

” There is no mistake that you're a hunter, but what's your hunter rank and class?”

I'm a healer of broken hearts. E rank, only because I want to. But hey, if you asked me, I could step up my game and give you the D, if you know what I mean... *he winked afterwards*

” So tell me what your reason for remaining a hunter? Nothing is stopping you from living a normal life.”

Hunters have a certain status in society, something I don't want to relinquish as it helps with my... hobbies.

” I can see that though tell me. What makes you think you'd fit for Shuma from those waiting outside? Sell yourself to me..."

Hahaha, *he cleared his throat* I'm Mateo Varela. *He shrugged with a coy smile* I'll help you guys make Shuma a suitable place for Mateo Varela.

” I ain't sold just yet. Is there anything else you want to tell us? If not, a background check can be arranged off the record, of course. Kidding mostly.”

Oh, I bet you can do a lot of things off the record... Interesting. Go ahead with the background check, I can show you around my place any time, hermosa.

” We kinda doubt you're gonna sit and wait to be called on when a job springs up. So what do you do on your off time? Part-time job, maybe?”

I like to meet new people, converse, dine, exchange saliva- uh ideas, that type of stuff. I also like to go on rides on my motorcycle. I can give one later if you want. *He winked to accentuate the innuendo* You know, before I became awakened I was a mechanic back in Buenos Aires. I used to fix broken things, now I ride them. *He started laughing at his own sexual (and dark) joke.*

”  Now something that'll be stricken off the records. Is there anything you want to tell us? As a guild, we're supposed to be family, no hiding secrets.”

Oh kinky... Can't say that I'm much into that kind of thing, but some roleplay of the sort never hurt nobody, I guess.

” Alright, that's enough for today. We have your information, and the World Hunter Association has set you and the rest up with a hotel until you're given the word. If you get a call, come back here in two days.”

[Interview segment ended]

Power:

  • Regenerative Healing Factor: ability to heal himself rapidly from any physical injury; it's not instant and he can get killed, etc.
Abilities: N/A
Weaponry: Short sword & revolver
Appearance: Although a healer, he wears some armor and has weapons to protect himself because he fears monsters. He travels with a suitcase full of healing potions and herbs to assist him, because his powers are actually useless on others. He can't heal anyone but himself.
Anything else that doesn’t fit with the interview: He is meant to be extremely cringy and arrogant. He cannot heal others and had a reputation of being useless. He is also generally a slacker who isn't interested in teamwork, since his former teammates have tended to treat him like he's worthless (probably rightfully so). He also acts confidently and boasts about his "skills", only to panic and falter when faced with scary monsters. The guild would find out about this through a background check.

Character Ons: All women, especially shy feminine ones; voluptuous
Character Maybe: Bossy, confident women (he secretly loves it too but he's not going to admit it)
Character Offs: Bossy people, prudes, scat, vore, etc.

Player Ons/Offs thread: In signature.

Gardsorm

Kinda neat how there was a pretty nice balance of character types. At least 1 of each is definitely pretty well, before accounting for extras. =p

Amarlo

I am a little confused when concerned with the lower segment of the sheet. What is the difference between Abilities and Powers? Examples of both would be nice.

Additionally, will this be played out within a single thread or will there be multiple threads with some more sandbox elements to allow characters to explore one another?

Seduce my mind and my body will follow.
