Introduction
This was the greatest day of Tama's life, and having lived for nearly forever, that was certainly saying something.
...Though she didn't get out much.
It was perfect. She knew her plan would work, that she could convince her. Amaterasu Omikami-Chan was like putty in her metaphorical hands, shaped and sculpted into someone more agreeable to her entirely altruistic ambitions. Not only did she say yes when Tama begged her incessantly to visit the ruler of the human realm as a goodwill mission, she eagerly supported her when she stated confidently that she wouldn't return until her mission was complete. Furthermore, she said that she could take anyone she liked, albeit as long as she would leave as soon as possible, and that she would ever so kindly give her a moments peace.
Ammy-Chan was like that sometimes.
But she wasn't supposed to call her that.
Thoughts and plans raced through her head, for better or worse. Sure, her reputation wasn't sterling among her peers, but she could make up for the incidents that she certainly didn't cause, but might of had a hand in...or two.
Sure, flooding the Eternal Palace to clean the floors was her idea, but she certainly didn't pick the Reflecting Pools as her first choice, it was just the only source with enough water.
...And yeah, she might've used a page of the Infinium Grimoire to write down a message for Ammy-Chan, but the man at the door said it was critical that they listened and that she and the Eternal Palace would lose millions if they didn't switch to his proposed cleaning product. Remembering to always consult Ammy-Chan first, it was imperative that she write the message down.
It wasn't her fault either that the fire started either. She was commanded to be prompt addressing Ammy-Chan, regardless of what she was cooking. That one was Ammy-Chan's fault.
...but the incident with the Dragon might've been hers.
That was in the past now though, as she could go and venture out into the Human Realm and garner the life experience that she hadn't had in the palace. She eagerly began to make her way to the Inn, which was rumored to be the roughest place in all of the Spirit Realm. Confident that she could find the sort that would serve as a adequate delegation to this 'Emperor" person, she stared ahead on the path ahead, eyes beaming brightly before tripping over a stone.
Every journey had it's downs.
-Of Beyond and Yonder-
This RP will be a minimum 900 word post, 6 player experience. With an emphasis on the journey over the destination, it will focus on the group and it's attempt to locate the Japanese Emperor using outdated information and a lack of understanding regarding the Human Realm. It will draw heavily on Japanese History/Mythology but will interpret the events of both very loosely, for the sake of entertainment. I'm no writer but you must display some sense of literacy in order to participate.
Rules: All the simple ones
-No God-Modding
-Don't be a B
-Post at least once a week, unless you have something come up. Tell me if this happens.
-The tone is similar to Samurai Champloo, so if you have trouble visualizing, think of that.
-Have Fun. This rule is the most serious of the 5 and not following it will result in grievous punishment.
Your character must be a creature on this list.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_legendary_creatures_from_Japan
Of course, you may be liberal in your interpretations.
The time frame within the RP will be ambiguous, acting under the concept that Yokai experience time differently than humans. The story will start out where the introduction left off, with Tama-Chan recruiting members for her delegation.
Character sheet:
Name: Something Japanese.
Perceived Gender/s: Yokai may or may not be restricted to a single gender. If the Yokai type itself restricts it, you must abide though.
Perceived Age: How old you look.
Yokai Type: Of the above list.
Appearance (Human): You may post a picture, but descriptions are required for both your Yokai and Human appearance.
Personality: This bugs me, as I like to explore this within the writing itself. You can have it as long or as short as you like, just don't limit yourself with it.
Backstory: Minimal. I don't really care. Another thing that I prefer to explore through writing.
Please redirect questions to the thread or to me if need be. Have fun!

I know my profile says I haven't done anything, but that's because I always forget my passwords. >//-//<
I have been waiting for someone to make a role play like this!
