Introduction
Plot Synopsis
In a distant, rather dystopic universe, the government system had fallen all over the world. Rumors were spread as of how and who took down the system, but no one knew or will ever know of the truth. And exactly because of this reason, the country of Japan was then divided into three territories where certain circles of people ran wild. These circles were simply one mafia, one yakuza, and one police force (or what was left of it). All three were neither good nor bad, ruling over their own territories to try and maintain what they deem as peace in their own views-- but, following an agreement specifically made to be used within the land of the rising sun... the headquarters for the three factions were located in a city that was previously known as Tokyo.
A heavy, hesitant truce was held for about three years between the opposing members before a massive, changing event occurred. The best of the best climbed to the top, guiding each faction through, claiming and controlling more territories. They were young, smart, aggressive, cruel-- what anyone would deem as a successful leader during that time. Whispers of fear broke out among civilians, and a hushed whisper fell upon Tokyo, fanning all across Japan.
Character Application
- Canon/OC: Simply tell whether it's a canon muse or your OC.
- Name: (Last name), (First name)
- Gender: (Male, female, trans, etc. are all accepted)
- Age: (Let's try to keep their age at about their 20s, alright? This applies for OCs, too. But this doesn't mean you can't have characters that are 30+!)
- Faction: (Mafia, Yakuza, Cops, or Civilians/Others? If you're a civilian, it would be nice to specify your job and territory. More information about each of them below!)
- Appearance: (For OCs, you gotta do this. For canon muses, this is optional! Adding little things about your muse's wardrobe would be appreciated, though~)
- Personality: (Please go into detail if it's an OC! For canon muses, we're expecting very similar personalities with a hint of changes due to the setting)
- Background: (We would like both canon and OCs to have a background which makes sense; it doesn't have to be too long since it's not really important, but it helps you and others understand your muse better!)
- Special Abilities: (For OCs, please don't go crazy! For canon muses, you still have to list their special abilities and maybe briefly explain how they work differently in this AU)
- Tumblr URL: (it can be your main, even all your URLs as long as we can recognize you)
Factions
Mafia (FILLED) - The mafia is lead by a sadistic, cruel boy whose name is Hanamiya Makoto. Simply put, this mafia is not only cruel, but efficient and filled with above-average intelligence. A spider-web created specifically for this mafia, almost something that can't be broken by simpleminded means. They rule strategic places, but their profiles are kept as low as they could even though their name was nasty from the beginning...
Yakuza (3 spots left) - This circle probably controls most of the country, being led with a (rather questionable in many aspects) leader whose name is Sakurai Ryo. People think that he is a weak character, but is that really the case..? The yakuza, no matter how intimidating it might sound, is actually not very cruel and brutal. They are quick in their action and decisive most of the time. Though, the current leader did not get his position with force-- it was handed down to him from the previous leader.
Police (FILLED) - Perhaps the force that controls the tiniest amount of territory, but their men are not to be messed with. This faction's current leader is a green-haired prodigy named Midorima Shintaro; a quite bright mind as well as lucky in terms of person. He believes that what he is doing to be justice and correct, and that god will reward the hard work one day and restore balance within the world.
Civilian/Others (2 spots left) - Combined together because others may be very well living among civilians. As a civilian, you can be an undercover drug dealer, arms dealer, etc. who might or might not be biased towards a faction, but then you can also be a normal civilian who is living under someone's territory. As Others, that might mean that your muse is someone who isn't a normal civilian and somehow works with one of the three factions, maybe even all or none (neutrally/biased) as a spy, doctor, nurse, etc.
