Hundreds of years ago, Orochi, an evil spirit, lay a curse on the land, taking all life from our sacred home. Sakuya, our the spirit that protects our village, summoned Amaterasu, the sun-god to aid us.

Taking the form of a white wolf, the sun-god accepted, setting forth on her quest to protect our land. She battled across our land, eventually beating the daemon. But his death cause a black, evil spirit to float northward. Amaterasu quested across Nippon, removing the curse in the places it had spread, defeating other daemons and sending similair dark spirits floating northward.

Her work done, Amaterasu then travelled, seeking the source of the evil spirits. Her quest soon found her at the ark of yamato, the source of the spirits and the ship that has saved the celestial beings from Orochi's curse.

Yami, the daemon controlling all of the evil spirits, did battle with the sun-god. Our protector prevailed, her job done, she set sail on the ark, back to the celestial plane.

Amaterasu's taime has passed, the new incarnate, Chibiterasu the Okamiden, is fully grown and has protected our land like Amaterasu.

I fear it is now time for the Okamiden's passing, rumours have been spreading that dark, evil spirits are rising again, sensing the God's weakness. I fear that they plan to rule the land, this musn't happen, we cannot ask the Okamiden, having done eanough for us already. I fear that the ageing god may be fading.

It is now that I call upon new spirits to protect the land, only they can save us now, I pray to the spirits to accept our plea, the darkness is closing in...

Ok, sorry about the name, I now realise that you can't edit it, aw crap.

Anyway, you basically can play as a Japanese god, you can make up the details and name, perhaps even come up with a new god, you may also play as spirits/minor spirits.

This is set in the japan of the Okami games, nippon and follows the Okami storyline in a minor way.

Here is the template:

Name:

Spirit/ God of: (What your god of. For spirits you can be the protector of a village or a spirit of nature or something.

Powers/Abilities/Traits: What your initial powers are, but please don;t go too over the top, and spirits will not be able to have equal power to gods I'm sorry to say.

Form/Animal form: What form/spiritual form you take, like Amaterasu being the white wolf.

Weapon/Mythological weapon: Basically your initial gear.

Appearance: What you look like/ your colour.

Backstory: If needed, not mandatory.

Please tell me if theres anything I missed.

  • Name: Soragami A. K. A. Ciela
  • Spirit/ God of: Weather

She's able to use Galestorm and Waterspout as well. As a crane she can fly and turn herself into an arrow (at the cost of hurting herself)
  • Form/Animal form: Whooping Crane.
  • Weapon/Mythological Artifact: A holy bow which is rather weak unless holy arrows are used. There is a gourd she has which she can heal others with.
  • Appearance: Red markings around her wings and neck. She has a red crest of feathers which is visible to the undivine. She has Blue eyes.
  • Backstory: A diety from the Moon Tribe which was tired of ignoring the danger on Nippon. She flew down from the moon and is not allowed to return. She is impulsive, brilliant and opportunistic. She had a reputation for selfishness on the Moon Tribe and it is believed she abandoned to moon to gain more worshipers.

Thouroughly a God ( of the thurteen of the Moon Tribe's gods..

As for the bow... She lunges forward to launch an arrow. Makes about sense as Ammy's weapons.

You can click on the yellow triangle button on a post to tell a mod that you want to change the title of this thread. Tell them what title you want to change it to, and they'll do it.

Hmm, I'll have to think up a character, but it'll take some time.

You got some dirt on you. Here's some more!

I have never played or heard about Okami. Do you need to have played or have some basic knowledge of the game.

I've read the story on Wikipedia. Should that suffice?

Judging by how this slightly follows the story, you may need some basic info. Wikipedia should be enough.

Name:Raijin.

Spirit/God of:Former god of storms.

Powers/Abilities/Traits:As the god of thunder, Raijin can use his brush to beat the drums on his back, creating a shockwave centered around himself. The larger the shockwave, the more ink is used. Raijin can also use Power Slash and Thunderstorm.

Form/Animal form:A conspicuously large toad.

Weapon/Mythological weapon:The ring of drums that hovers over Raijin's back, which can be swung in a manner similar to a Reflector.

Appearance:A bright red toad, about the size of a small dog.

Backstory:Formerly a god of Nippon, Raijin retired years ago and has since been living... elsewhere.

Suffice it to say, Raijin has since enjoyed his freedom from the other gods. As the land he once watched over is threatened, Raijin takes up arms to defend the his homeland from whatever darkness has fallen over it.
