- Name: Keiichi Sakahira
- Age: 19
- Gender: male
- Occupation Outside of D.P.A.S: College Student
- Appearance: Very handsome and a bit rugged looking, he has green eyes and dark blond hair, he usually wears a white short sleeve shirt, with a black tank top underneath, a pair of jeans, and boots. In combat situations, he adds on a reinforced tactical vest and a pair of gloves.
- Personality: Very dutiful and yet fun loving, he puts on the face of someone with no worries, but he is deeply troubled by something that's happened with one of his love interests. He has a dark and troubled past that he has not told anyone about yet, but he might tell that to someone he cares for. Keiichi is actually a foreigner, but was adopted by Japanese parents once and given his name, but then something happened to those parents. Something bad. He then went to another person to be raised, and has since moved on. He is very determined to finish any task that is in front of him, but he is also very susceptible to manipulation due to his easy, trusting nature.
- Weapons: He mainly uses an odd sword which has a built in gun which he can use to fire off a round whenever he slashes with the sword.
- Powers: He might eventually get a power, but he won't like it much.
- Abilities: He is a very skilled swordsman, and also seems to be very intelligent.
- Brief History: He had an adoptive family due to the fact he was an unwanted child, a bastard of a Japanese woman and a westerner businessman who got away with essentially raping her. He has grown up not knowing this, and was adopted by a loving family. They died to someone who Keiichi only remembers as "He looked like a Jester."
He then went off into the care of an immigrant, a very strange woman named Lutecia who raised him and then seemed to vanish from his life after he moved out for college. He became a DPAS officer some time after going to college due to his odd skills fostered under Lutecia...
Lutecia turned out to be a fake creation made by the real Lutecia who remained exiled inside of an old lab. She was an experiment in terms of trying to make a powerful supernatural creature. In the end, all that resulted was a woman bound by armor which doubled as a restrainer, bound further to the inside of the laboratory and the machines, constantly using whatever she has on hand to send out Yoma Stigma to be given to teenagers and young people experiencing pain or loss. She accomplishes this by sending out her Enigmatic Minion, Nagi. She is currently obsessed with becoming free, and making Keiichi into her "true" son.
Name: Tachibana Akio
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Occupation outside of D.P.A.S.: Elementary school teacher
Appearance: A rather well built, but by no means bulky man who certainly doesn’t look like he should be a teacher. He has dark brown hair, a rather large set of sideburns , but is otherwise usually clean shaven. He has brown eyes.
Personality: Akio is a rather Hot-Blooded man with a tendency to ham it up a bit. However his personality seems to make a complete 180 when he’s talking to Hoshi, almost to the point that he could be mistaken for a different person. In battle, his otakuness tends to show through a bit, occasionally leading to him calling his attacks.
Weapons: A rather standard revolver and a short sword.
Powers: N/A
Abilities: None of note.
Brief History: Akio has always been a bit of an otaku. He always dreamt of being like the heroes of the series he watches, and as such was rather happy to join D.P.A.S. He has a rather miserable love life (or lack thereof) as he tends to spend the vast majority of his time making sure his lesson plans are in order so his students can get the most out of every lesson or watching anime...well, when he’s not helping deal with assorted supernatural problems.
Is this alright?

Burn up, hurricane of justice!Basically, it's influenced by anime and I encourage people to use anime tropes if they so choose. Basically it's because I've already got one for another genre, which is mentioned in the OP, and I wanted to make this one as well.
Also because the original version of this, of a different site, was a very anime-like RP and I wanted to perserve that, since the first time I played it this was great. You'd need to know some honorfics due to the fact that, if an RP takes place in any country, I like to get certain parts of the language spoken in that country included(at least if it's something I can expect people to know at least a little bit about, and if it actually works with how the language is). And it was that way in the original as well.

"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."And... Here she is!
- Name: Ishimura Haruka
- Age: 20
- Gender: Female
- Occupation Outside of D.P.A.S: Rōnin (She wasn’t able to get into her university of choice the first time around. She was off by only a few points, but considers it a mark of shame. She’ll occasionally lie and tell people that she is in fact a university student. She always regrets it afterwards and beats herself up about it. She claims to attend Tokyo University.)
- Appearance: She’s a fairly average-looking girl with round glasses, green eyes and long, black hair tied with a light blue ribbon. She’s been told that she’s pretty, by more than a few different guys And many spirits, but she doesn’t believe them.
- Personality: She gets flustered easily and tends to take things more personally than she should. She is aware of these flaws and as a result she’s introverted and doesn’t talk much. She’s very chatty to ghosts, though. This manifests as an appearance of talking, smiling, or laughing to herself.
- Weapons: She carries a small multi-tool pocket knife and a can of mace.
- Powers: She has the ability to see and talk to spirits/ghosts.
- Abilities: She excels at the 100-meter dash.
- Brief History: She’s had the ability to see and communicate with spirits ever since she was very young. Her parents dismissed it as simply having “Imaginary Friends,” until she failed to grow out of it. She was put on several different medications, many of which made her sick. She eventually realized that she’d have to “fake-be-normal” if she wanted to stop taking the medication.
Supplementary info: She's never had a boyfriend. Most guys think that she's too much of a weirdo. (What with talking to herself and all.)
The rest will be revealed during the course of the RP. (Read: I can’t think of anything else, and I’m going to fly by the seat of my pants.
)

Give the world the best you have and you will get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.Nagi, he is someone who embodies the Smug Snake, acts as an enigmatic minion to Lutecia, and as for the Yoma Stigma, its essentially magic steroids, makes you stronger and faster, but after having them on for a little white, you become a Yoma, a very strong, very nasty evil spirit.

Well, tell me if I can help.
Also, since I've already got three R Pers, I'm probably going to start this up soon.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."OK, let's give this a try:
- Name: Kaze Tsukasa (Do you want Japanese or Western order here?)
- Age: 20
- Gender: Male
- Occupation Outside of D.P.A.S.: College Student
- Appearance: Kaze is quite small and slightly built, to the point where he looks a bit younger than he actually is. He also has reddish-brown hair and brown eyes.
- Personality: Kaze is a quiet person, preferring not to interact for the simple reason that he doesn't think he fits in anywhere.
- Weapons: Silenced semi-automatic pistol and a survival knife, plus a sniper rifle if required (any problems with me going for real models here, or should I just keep it generic?)
- Powers: N/A
- Abilities: Kaze is a trained marksman, able to, in the words of his instructor, “knock an apple off a fence post at three-hundred yards”. (I can remove that if it's too god-moddy)
- Brief History: Kaze's involvement in D.P.A.S. is really a case of “wrong place, wrong time”. He was drafted, quite against his will, into the organisation following the incident, and quickly established himself as a fairly skilled marksman.
Accepted. Also, you can use Japanese or western order in the bios, but since the characters are Japanese I'd imagine there's going to be Japanese name order in dialogue in the RP. At least, that's what I usually do.
Also, real weapon models is fine, I don't mind at all. And being a good marksman isn't god-moddy in the slightest. So it's all fine.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."Annor, then could you play Nagi and Lutecia? For Lutecia, she essentially has intensely creepy vibes with my OC, to the extent of verging from My Beloved Smother and into Yandere

The Department for the Protection Against the Supernatural. Also known as D.P.A.S. There's a branch in nearly every country in the world, kept secret from the public. Their job is simple: To defend the world from the supernatural. Not all supernatural entities are dangerous, but the ones who are could cause havoc int society. They must be eliminated, so that life may continue as normal.
Recruits in the D.P.A.S are often those who have had experience with the supernatural. They are sometimes forcibly recruited into a branch to avoid them revealing the existence of the supernatural to the public. Some recruits are even supernatural themselves
Recently, a creature has appeared near the Japanese branch of the D.P.A.S. It appeared in the midst of the public. While it was dealt with, numerous new individuals have been recruited into the branch.
This is their story.
This is another very anime RP, but for a different genre then A Slice of Life. I encourage players to use anime tropes to help with that feel.
Bios:
Name:
Age: (Teens and up, save one of my characters)

Personality:
Weapons: (Guns are limited to pistols and rifles. Other weaponry can be swords or anything else that seems possible. This space can also be left blank if your character has no weapons)

My characters:
Name: Anno Hajime
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Occupation Outside of D.P.A.S: College Student
Appearance: Hajime isn't particularly noteworthy as far as his appearance. He has dark brown hair, a fairly average build and facial structure, and is generally a normal-looking guy.
Personality: Hajime is snarky. Snarking is one of his most valued passtimes. He frequently has a sarcastic remark for every situation. He's fairly brave in the face of danger, though he has a tendancy to get in over his head in a fight.
Weapons: A simple pistol, and a knife.
Powers: N/A
Abilities: None of note.
Brief History: Hajime's history isn't too exciting, okay? No asking, and it definitely won't be revealed over the course of the RP.
-
Name: Murakami Hoshi
Age: 10
Gender: Female
Occupation Outside of D.P.A.S: Simply a carefully monitored elementary school girl
Appearance: Hoshi is small, slight, and short, appropriate for her age. She has black hair that reaches to about her elbows, and is fairly pale as she doesn't get out mush aside from going to school. She has soft features fitting of her age, and eyes that are a purple color.
Personality: Hoshi is cheerful, bright, and upbeat. She loves to draw, read, and talk to the various D.P.A.S agents at base. She adores anything that could be classified as cute, and is highly sociable at school. She isn't pleased about how she can't visit her friends outside of school, though.
Weapons: N/A
Powers: Maybe. The D.P.A.S isn't sure if she has them or not... but that's why she's monitored so closely.
Abilities: Hoshi is good at math. That's about it.
Brief History: Hoshi was found, as a baby, by D.P.A.S agents. Her parents had been killed by a supernatural creature, and she was taken in for placement at an orphanage. As she grew, there were signs that she may have some kind of ability. As such, she's been raised by the D.P.A.S her whole life, and monitored closely at school to see what it may be.
