A Roleplay By Strega:
I've done Death Note roleplays in the past and they've usually been pretty successful. For anyone who knows not what Death Note is, it is an anime/manga about a killer who can murder victims by writing their name in a book. I'd rather people didn't apply unless they know the manga or anime anyway.
The Idea I have in mind is a sort of death note sequal. set a few years after the events with the death note holder Light Yagami, the death note will fall into the hands of another. The only Canon character I'd like to feature in the roleplay is Ryuk the Shinigami, as it would seem more than likely that he would continue dropping his death note in the human world.
I'd like to discuss ideas though and I don't have a main story set in stone so im open to suggestions. I do ask that all members requesting to join must have a good knowledge of the death note story.
Now on to characters:
Kira: Kira is not the characters name. Name and age is entirely up to the member playing him, Although keeping him/her youngish would be a sort of semi-rule. "Kira" is the person who will obtain the death note and will be the main character of the story. the criteria for playing him/her is as follows:
Kira must have at least one person he/she truly cares for. Ideally I would rather Kira had close friends and assosciates to help the plot move along and to provide interesting roles for other players.
Head of the K.I.O: This character can be male or female. The K.I.O is the "Kira Investigation Organisation" which is a special branch of the police formed after the events of Light Yagami when he used the death note. criteria is:
Must be intelligent
As an officer this character will likely be the most qualified in a crisis situation, obviously trained in basic self defence and carries a gun.
Answer's only to "L" although at first he/she will be on their own investigation.
K.I.O operative: Second in command in the K.I.O from the head. can be male or female. no specific criteria.
"L": L will be played by me. L is my characters codename, my character being a prodigy of the original "L". My character will be Kira's sworn enemy as a rule. And obviously he's not the original L ^_^.
Other roles are Friends/Family/Love interests of Kira.
and those are the characters. apply for the one you are interested in with a profile containing:
Position applied for:
Name:
Age:
Appearance: (may be a picture)
Personality:
History:
Sample Post: this must be at least a paragraph and will decribe your characters actions and thoughts in the following scenario:
"being held at gunpoint by a lowlife criminal"
you will be marked on decription and creativity. please write this post in FIRST PERSON as this roleplay will be written in the first person to better depict inward thoughts which will be a big part of the writing process in this roleplay.
also here are the rules of the death note:
Ryuk writes instructions in English inside his Death Note with the belief that English is the most popular language in the human world.
* The human whose name is written in this note shall die.
* This note will not take effect unless the writer has the person’s face in their mind when writing his/her name. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.
* If the cause of death is written within 40 seconds of writing the person’s name, it will happen.
* If the cause of death is not specified, the subject will simply die of a heart attack.
* After writing the cause of death, the details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.
* One page taken from the death note, or even a fragment of the page, contains the full effects of the note.
* The instrument to write with can be anything (e.g. cosmetics, blood, etc) as long as it can write directly onto the note and remains as legible letters.
* Even the original owners of the death note, gods of death, do not know much about the note.
A Shinigami must own at least one Death Note. That Death Note may also be used and owned by a human, but only if the Death Note falls to earth and is found by a human. The Shinigami have to keep using the Death Note to kill people in order to extend their own lives.
A pact exists between the first human owner and the Shinigami who gave the human the Death Note. The pact is such that at the end of the owner’s life, the Shinigami has to write down the owner’s name in his own note.
hopefully someone is interested.
