Woo! ^^ and here it is. My second ever Rp. I hope everybody likes it.
Just some stuff it'd be nice to do ^^
1. No Godmodding
2. No flaming
3. Keep the spam to a minimum
4. Keep the crazy/wierd stuff to a minimum
5. Enjoy this Rp ^^
Story
It's going to be based on the anime Samurai Shamploo, during the Edo period in
Japan. Basically it's going to have a freestyle feel to it, just like the
anime.
With the new Tokugawa Shogunate samurai are being given a number of choices,
give up their sword and become peasants, move to the city of their feudal lord
and become a paid retainer, join the military and renounce their status as a
samurai or join a clan that has approval of the government.
Although Japan is changing alot of samurai are persisting with their ways of
life and are being frowned upon by the government. Situations where the people
have risen up against their corrupt Lords are being blamed upon the ronin and
roaming samurai.
Members of the government have begun hiring mercenaries, assasins, and
ex-samurai who conformed under Feudal Lords and military leaders to hunt the
ronin and rogues. Inspite of not being the cause of trouble and some being
heroes of the people, they're becoming a hinderance in the government's
opinion.
In the Rp you can chose to be a ronin, wanderer, mercenary, ex-samurai in the
military, a feudal lord's retainer, ninja, assasin. Any of these can take either
side in the conflict. The weapons will be any kind as long as it could be found
in Japan at that time. Basic firearms like muskets and arquebusiers can be used.
There's no magic.
Also there will be some historical background. Namely, groups, locations, in
general how Japan was during that time. And Cyg when you post here can you add
details about the groups you mentioned to me ^^'
Well hope we can start soon <3 Best of luck ^^ Sounds awesome to
me!~

Other: Has trained in both the arts of the sword and traditional karate, making
himself a weapon, he boasts both a high resistance and great agility, he carries
three diferent swords because he received them in different ways from people who
were important to him
@Lance: Great to see you here lance ^^ I'll make sure things don't go too
fast.
@SuperAnimeFan: Japanese names aren't too dificult to think of. But you can be a
foreigner if you want. Also, what can I call you other than 'supanimfan' it's a
bit long ^^'
((hmm... you can call me Master of the Holy Fires... lol no jk you can call me
Sean, k cool, I'll be a lost Korean Warrior(I just like Korean martial arts )))

all girls that fall in love because she finds it stupid
Other: Used to be a geisha and she sings way too much and she is overly obsessed
with kimonos or anything traditional. Easy to lure when you attract her with
traditional things, especially kimonos. Her whole family was murdered when she
was 3 except for her father who sold her away when she was 4, when she was 10
she was kidnapped and trained as an assassin, even though she could kill Kiyoshi
if she wanted to she treats him very nicely because Kiyoshi was the one who took
her away from her confined room which her master locked her up in, only letting
her out to kill or run 'errands'. She has an alter ego that's way more evil and
cold that comes out when she gets bullied or hurt or when she needs
help.

a small Korean village, but he has no recollation of it, only small portions of

((YEPEE! I'm going to try writing like a story... Need to practice my writing skills
instead of using ** all the time... Oh... And amaya is wearing the kimono in the
picture right now and her hair is tied like the picture except she has more
flowers hanging down her hair and she has more flower patterns on the kimono...
And oh... Forgot to add Amaya also has an obsession over flutes... especially
nohkan flutes... Which look like this http://www.muarts.org.uk/pages/glossary/pix/nokan-360.jpg
The flute amaya always holds is the 3rd flute from the top... ))
Amaya was playing her nohkan flute as usual... In the quiet... No way! Peaceful... As if! Sweet... I fire you as
my narrator... "KEEP QUIET!" She glared at the bunch of
running... Evil... Demonic children that were trying to kill her.... Amaya ran
over to a kid and hit his head with the nohkan... Okay... Scratch that... Amaya
was trying to kill the children... "Geez... How many times do I have to
tell you?! Don't run around!" The little boy rubbed his head and looked up
at Amaya "I'll tell grandma not to give you the new yukata to you..."
Amaya's jaws opened a bit "No way...." She knelt down the little boy's
level and handed him an apple "Gomenasai...." she sighed and the
little boy took the apple and ran off The
things I do for a kimono... Wait a minute.... WHY DIDN'T I JUST BUY A KIMONO?!?!
Amaya you idiot....
Haneul sit's chained to the inside of the boat. *What is going on...* Haneul
looks around, it's dark, but not dark enough that he can't see. He notices two
guards next to the staircase. He hears the swishing of water on the outside.
*I'm... on a boat? What's going on* Just then, he remembers the palace, colorful
and magical, except that day. *Oh, right* The doors to the top deck open up and
two more guards come in. They unlock his chains and drag him outside. *We must
be here, but where is here?* They drag him up the stairs like a rag doll, each
stair hitting him on his bad side. He looks up and sees the captain.
Captain: I'm sorry...
Haneul: ...
Captain: Oh don't look at me like that! I have no choice, you shouldn't have
been there, you... you babo!
Haneul: ...
Captain: Sorry...
The captain makes a head movement. Two guards take him by the chains. The guards
drag him off the boat and into the hands of two other guards. *They don't seem
Korean... or Chinese... but there's resembelance* He looks around. They grab him
by the chains and release him long after the boat disappear.
Haneul: So what happens now.
Guard: We release you
*They don't speak Hangul well. It's obviously not there first language.* They
take off his chains and give him his stuff.
Haneul: Kamsahamneeda
Guard: Neh... Oh, and don't forget to register as a civilian here.
Haneul: Okay, thank you again.
Guard: And you might want to learn the native language here... or else it will
be hard to fit in.
Haneul walks towards a building with strange characters on them, he puts the
Jinggum on his right side...
