Oh noes! The princess has been kidnapped! Won't you rescue her, brave warrior?
Okay, so. I've been working on a profile for a yōkai lord. I guess I'm aiming to make him the forum's first big bad, but hopefully we'll get some more members and he won't be the last. I procrastinate a lot, but it's almost done now, which is why I'm posting this.
Like any decent villain, he's got a devious goal in mind. But I'm not sure how much I wanna reveal... What I will say is that for the past 50 years or so his minions have been abducting the sons, daughters, and other relatives of various daimyo and kuge across Japan, taking them back to his castle. Many have attempted to rescue them over the years, but none have returned... dun dun dun. But don't worry. There's more to his plan than the whole "kidnapping the princess" cliché, but that's all I'll say for now.
I'll be playing the yōkai lord. It might be interesting is anyone wants to create and play one of his minions, which means I'll fill you in on (some of) the details of his plan. But at the very least we need some people to form a party and mount a rescue attempt, whatever their motivation for doing so may be. The starting point would probably be the castle/manor of lord who has issued a summons for mercenaries/adventurers, after his own soldiers have failed to rescue his recently kidnapped child.
So, anyone interested?

Very much so- though some plotting could easily turn that around. Mwaahahah!

Well, there could be imprisonment, bribes, threats, empty promises- etc. Of which could easily pull someone from the rescue team to the other side. You just have to use it right to twist the plot into a fun ride. =P

Ah. A traitor, huh?
Without revealing too much, ultimately a traitor might actually be detrimental to his plan, as odd as that sounds. But, if the traitor was given some specific instructions, it could work.
On second thought, I take that back. A traitor would work just fine.

So, Gein, were you going to make a new character? Or can I just start the thread?
...And where did Ryo Suzuki go? I hope he hasn't gone inactive.

You know Lodovico will be there as soon as he's finished. Namely because he has no money, and really needs some. The land lady is a fiery woman, and she isn't very curt.

All righty. I'll get the thread up soon. Hehe. I'm such a terrible procrastinator (and the two games I got for Christmas don't help in that regard).

All righty. The thread is up.
That being said, I'll wait for Lodovico to be accepted. Anybody else, go ahead and post your introductions in the meantime.
