Hello folks! Thanks to the lovely help of Sheep Shifter, I have enough of my character down to start advertising for connections and the like! I'll post a bit of what I have of her, but as for what I'm looking for, I will put my ideas down that are both very broad or very specific. While I will list a few ideas, I'm also always open for some good suggestions! Sadu of the Kha tribe always had a fascination with strength and how those with it choose to wield it. That is why it was no surprise that Sadu was training to be a fighter from the moment she was able to hold a stick in her hands. As a child, she could commonly be seen watching the warriors, hunters and the like with steely focus, eager to absorb information. This eagerness to learn and strong will caught the eye of a Samurai that was interacting with the tribe, and she was quickly taken under their wing to become their pupil. She found contentment in the ability of a Samurai to use their strength for the greater good, as well as the fact that she was always learning, always growing. The travel also allowed her to meet and learn from many other warriors, the young Xaela eager to learn what she could of their fighting style. However, the katana was her calling, and through it, strength, peace, and happiness. Sadu is overall a fairly relaxed and kind person, though her fiery spirit is often shown when meeting new warriors or literally through her aether. The best way to get to know someone, she'd say, is through a friendly spar. Now, for the things specifically I may be looking for are: Possibly a Samurai to be/have been her mentor? (she's mid twenties, figured she's been on the road for about a decade) A place (house, town, etc) for her to serve as a Samurai Family, even toyed with the concept of a twin (will expand on that) A rival/fellow student (flexible here) Companions As for the twin, I thought it would be fun, especially if we pulled the blue and red oni trope. Sadu is very fiery, so ideally the twin (or rival) could be of the water or ice persuasion. Perhaps they left home with Sadu, regardless if they are a samurai or not. Any other ideas? Hit me up! I'm new to the setting and super excited to get things rolling!

Hi everyone, I have prepared a small survey concerning the expectations of the players concerning the roleplay. Mainly to be able to prepare something that everyone could enjoy and helping me prepare the right ground rules for it and know where I should focus on. First of all, a small presentation of the project: Name: Sekiseigumi Barracks (Fellowship + Crossworld Linkpearl) Location: Sekiseigumi barracks (Kugane) Server: Balmung Type: RP/ PVE Theme: Sekiseigumi (guard)/Samurai Discord: Private for now, please contact me if you wish to join it. Briefer: The Sekiseigumi, is a force to be reckoned with, protecting Kugane from criminals and anarchy. They stand strong against the villainy of the Rebels who oppose the Bakufu and the Isolationists who oppose the Governor of Kugane. While not being a military force, the Hingan citizens (from farmers, artisans and merchants families) who joined the ranks is formed to wield a katana and defend themselves against all foes. The Sekiseigumi Fellowship is an Hingan project focused on Kugane. We are mainly RP with random encounters with other players as well as moderated events. The goal is to give a set of ground rules for those who wish to get into this roleplay and play it safe for other players too. Therefore, the golden rules mentioned on the server are at our core, as well as a "certification" to show which players are indeed in the fellowship as well as appropriate measure for those who break the Fellowship rules (all those are listed there). If you wish to help, you can always fill in the survey and send it to the different discords to help us have a decent sample size: (https://forms.gle/uFSjDBvDuxroCCiE9) I will also put in the spoilers the results of the preliminary study: (36 answers, from 3 different discords)

Call to the Yakuza: Yumiko Kazane presents herself in front of a group of Yakuza she looks around, each one looking at her suspiciously. She takes a deep breath and tightens her grip on the white flag that she was waving a few moments ago. "Good evening, I am sorry to barge in and that is probably a really uncommon sight. But at exceptional threats, exceptional measures. Recently, there has been rumours that our way of life is threatened, this threat is not only concerning the Sekiseigumi, but also farmers, fishermen, merchants, nobles and yourself. It does not matter to them how old you are or if you fight or not. But even with our best efforts the Sekiseigumi alone would not be enough to stop that threat, therefore I present myself before you with a proposition. The Sekiseigumi will exceptionally dismiss all the fines that your members have, as well as reduce by half the sentences that some of you might be serving in exchange for your service to fight that threat. Anyone who wants to join should join the briefing held at the Clan Jizutsu Estate this Wednesday at 8PM (EST - Ward 10 plot 28 - Balmung). The Daimyo Jizutsu no Keiho will present the elements his troops have already gathered and propose different plans up to discussion. Please. I beg you. Come to the help of Kugane and his inhabitants." She bows respectfully and awaits for the answer of the Yakuza leader(s) Somewhere else in Kugane: **A sealed official scroll has been delivered to every estate in Kugane and Shirogane that is registered with the Kugane office. The letter has the seal of the Bugyo of Kugane upon it** *Call for arms. Shirogane is rumored to have an impending attack upon it's shores. Lord Jizutsu no Keiho calls for any and all, able loyal blades of the East to come to his estate this Wednesday (04/08/2020) at the eighth evening bell. (8 pm est) to coordinate with the Sekiseigumi to remove this foreign threat from its shores.* ((IC meeting is set for 8pm est 04/08/2020 at Plot 28 10th ward Shirogane. Doors will open at 7:30. Please read the following information as this is an event being hosted by HvH.)) ______________________________________________________________ This message concerns the preparation of the following event: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17fNew7O0r13EcUcXu2TkGHGC338ULIx-XAmsTXUNYJ8/mobilepresent?slide=id.g82b48939b9_0_82

Sigward Locke Half-Roe Engineer and Swordsman Locke's past is kept his secret, but many meet him and learn quickly he's happy with who he is despite that. The man is loud, boisterous, loving, smart-assed, and at times has a very foreward tongue that can get him into a grand deal of trouble. The man currently holds no Free Company's badge, and thus works as an Engineer for hire, often offering his knowledge or his services before heading back to wait for more work. He is often seen with two swords by his hip, one tied off by a red string, the other the one he more actively uses. Closer inspection would show that he is far from a normal Hyur despite appearances, actually the offspring of Roegadyn and Hyur reproduction. Despite the sword on his hip, he does not have true samurai training. He wields the blade, but his fighting style is almost entirely his own, and shows as such with how much it lacks the discipline and time spent compared to true sword arts. On his other hip, he keeps a small firearm: A rifle that had been made as just the grip to a swan off barrel, with the rest in between. On the inside however he has a deal of self doubt. No matter how confident he appears, he is battling his internal demons and trying to tell himself he's worth a damn. Its because of this that he does take time to actually find himself close to anyone, though approaching him is an easy task. He has shied away from a lot of company offers due to this, and is easilly found drinking himself to a good nights rest to escape this mentality. But, most times, you will see him smile, laugh, and probably slap him when he prods your rear as a joke. Note: Butt prodding done only with OOC permission, this is a family friendly profile!
