“One person's craziness is another person's reality.”
― Tim Burton

Have you ever had that moment where you meet someone that claims to see things other people can not?
How about that moment where you read a crazy article by a conspiracy theorist that claims that the government is hiding secrets in Roswell?
And what about that moment where stuff randomly disappears and when confronted by someone, you claim that little gremlins stole those items?

...Okay, maybe that last one was just me. I'm willing to accept that.

What if they were all true though? What if those things that a random "crazy" person claims to see, the secrets of Roswell, and those gremlins actually did exist? On top of that, what if there were a group of people that could actually see them? What if some of these beings love causing chaos and a group of people are working to stop these beings and their allies? Finally, what if this group of people were organized in a global organization?

And now, an FAQ:

Q1: What is this concept exactly?
A1: Insanity's Edge is an RP set in the modern world, where "fictional folklore" of supernatural beings (known as Oni) and magic are actually scriptures of fact and reality. To the normal human, these beings do not exist and are only seen when their aura becomes visible. However, a select few can see these beings, even when the auras of Oni are not visible to the regular human eye. These people are known collectively as "Videntium" or "Seers." These people have existed from the dawn of history, fighting against these Oni that attempt to create havoc and destruction in our world. Slowly, they found others like themselves and began to work in pairs, triplets, or larger teams. They worked together to fight the Oni and as a result, have become effective at keeping the peace. In the modern day (2012), this concept has gone global and has become an international organization known as the Warriors of the Insanity District (WID). People as young as 13 and as old as 50 are able to take part in this society, although special exceptions are made for notable members.

Q2: Are you crazy?
A2: Yes. Next question please.

Q3: How do these "Seers" fight these Oni exactly?
A3: Just like Oni have magical properties (and auras), so too do the people who fight them. Some Seers use magic spells to aid in their battles and others have taken to the use of the elements instead. Even further, with the rise of technological advances, weapons such as swords and guns have been given magical traits to help destroy these Oni. Keep in mind, regular humans can not see Oni when their souls are hidden, so Seers that fight in front of humans will generally be considered crazy. Also, it then requires wiping the minds of regular humans much in a Men in Black fashion. Seers are not affected by memory wiping equipment due to random genetic codes I just made up.

Q4: What is the Warriors of the Insanity District?
A4: The Warriors of the Insanity District (WID) is an global organization that fights to stop Oni from destroying human society and spreading chaos around the world. The organization is split up into seven districts (one for each continent, plus the Middle East), each of which has its own chain of command down to each province/state. From this level, jobs are given out to Seers in the region and these Seers complete these jobs. Upon completion, the Seer is paid a reward for their involvement in completing the job... and yes, I mean actual cash. Seers have the right to request certain jobs that appear if they have a specific attachment to it.

Q5: Are all Seers part of the WID?
A5: Actually, no. Some Seers have taken the side of the Oni and actively fight to cause chaos. Yes, that is a choice you can make... but it puts you at odds with a global organization that has many members.

Q6: When and where does this story take place?
A6: It will take place in a Boarding School, and all applicants should be between 13 and 18. However, I may give special exception if I decide to let someone be a teacher. As for the district, I have decided to let applicants decide that. See the application below. As for when, it is starting October 1, 2012.

Q7: This seems like fun! I'd love to apply!
A7: Great! The application form is at the end of this FAQ!


Q8: For special abilities, I don't know what to do... can you help?
A8: A special ability is an ability that few Seers posses. This can be either passive or aggressive. Passive special abilities will often increase a Seer's performance in battle or their senses. Some examples include increased accuracy, sense Oni from far away, or sense danger coming close. Aggressive special abilities are those that can be used as an attack or as a defense. Examples would be a large force field for a limited time, a blast of aura power, or basically resonating with an Oni's aura and using it against them.

Q9: Can I apply as an Oni?
A9: Absolutely! There is now an Oni Application if you want to try being a supernatural being. There are a few things to keep in mind.

• You can align with Oni and destroy everything or act independently and forge your own path. The WID currently views all Oni as evil and will not accept them.
• Gender and Age do not have to be specified. After all, you are a mythical being and time doesn't kill everyone at the same rate.
• The Bio could be about the corruption of a human into an Oni or about the behavior of an Oni when encountered by Seers and humans.
• Power Type replaces the Weapon Type. Examples of things Oni can do (and Seers rarely can) are spit acid, shoot spikes and regrow them, or grow and regrow numerous limbs.

Q10: My question isn't here... but it's a good one!
A10: Either telegram me or post below. I'll be glad to answer any questions.

Accepted Characters:

Name: Alvino Winston Castille
Gender: Male
Age (13-18): 17
Appearance: And it goes like this!
Personality: Generally serious and a bookworm. Somewhat awkward sometimes. People who know him better describe him as "very awkward, but with the right intentions in mind." Has a tendency to be happy at times, and depressed other times.
Allegiance (Independent, Oni, WID): WID
Choose one of the Following: Enhanced Weaponry
Two Weapon Types (ex. Dark Magic for Magic, Fire for Elemental, Sword for Enhanced Weaponry): Twin Katanas/ Bo Staff/Scythes/Shield
Special Ability (Please Describe): Aura Scrambler: Allows Alvino to scramble the aura of an opponent. Does damage to both the opponent and Alvino. When performed on Oni, it causes them to be revealed to regular humans.
Bio (1-3 paragraphs): Alvino was born in the United Kingdom on April 18, 1995 to an English mother and a Latino father. His father served as a politician for the local government and his mother was working as an adviser for a Minister in the national government. Alvino's first few years were generally quiet and he enjoyed himself and his comfortable, but isolated life. The one thing he was upset about was that his parents were often very busy to spend time with him. As he grew older and started going to public school, he was slow to make any friends and kept to himself for the most part. While other children engaged in the playground, he would sit on the side and read a book by himself. Overall, the other students paid no attention to him. Sure, he had the usual bully, but everyone had that for the most part. He made a few acquaintances here and there and generally lived an easy life.

However, that would change quickly. Tragedy struck his family on November 13, 2006 and a terrible accident happened that would change his life drastically. In the "accident," his mother and father perished and he was quickly accused by other family members for their deaths. Finally, William Delauntes and Sylvia Delauntes (his Uncle and Aunt) decided to take pity on him and adopted him. It was too late by that point. Alvino went into isolation, sometimes not eating for days on end until his Aunt forced him to finally come out of his room and eat. The new school he went to was different from his old one, with less friendly people and more machismo. He was targeted for choosing to read rather than play football, write rather than "score chicks," and isolate himself in his room. His life revolved around the novels he read and he slowly spiraled towards depression. He had been seeing odd things and was often called insane for pointing out things that didn't seem to be there. Finally, everyone decided that enough was enough and on April 17, 2009, a number of students filed a complaint to the Board of Education that Alvino was too insane to be allowed in school. He was placed in a "mental hospital" and was not released for six weeks. Rumors swirled about shock therapy, hypnosis, and antidepressants. No one truly knows what happened in there, but it seemed to have worked. When Alvino was released, he longer seemed to point things out that didn't exist. He slowly settled into a habit of being a bookworm, but also being a person who would give assistance if requested. It seemed his insanity was cured.

...But we all know that's a load of crap now, don't we?

It turns out that the "mental hospital" that Alvino was sent to was actually not a mental hospital at all. The Superintendent, knowledgeable in the existence of Oni, contacted the Warriors of the Insanity District and told them about Alvino. When they approached him, he was given a choice. He could choose to be sent to an actual mental hospital, where he would supposedly be "cured," or he could join the WID and help them fight Oni. He immediately jumped at the latter choice and was put through six weeks of intensive training, where he learned about Oni, how to fight them, and how not to die. Upon graduation, he became a full member of the WID and has been fighting Oni ever since. Now, he is being sent to a new Academy with all new people. He is unsure of what awaits him... but he knows that where he goes, Oni will follow.

Name:Aiden Lewis Ethans
Gender:Male
Age (13-18):18
Appearance:
Appearance (Image)

Personality:Fragile and Shy but can also be Mischievous and Agressive,rarely ever says more than a sentence or two publicly,finds it very hard to socialize without sounding/appearing rather awkward...has a personal history of anger management issues,but seemed to have disappeared as he got older...
Allegiance (Independent, Oni, WID):WID
Choose one of the Following: Elemental
Weapon Type:Dark Matter/Air
Special Ability (Please Describe):2 Abilities:Agressive:Double Attack:Uses own energy to create doubles of himself,the doubles either become autonomous or can be controlled by the original to follow his every move,this is useful for attacking.When slightly damaged,a double will either regenerate or slowly fade away into dust.When heavily/critically damaged,a double will almost certainly immediately fade into nothingness as well,the energy returning to the original.The attack almost always drains the user's energy,rendering them weak and drowsy,dizziness accompanying.During the attack,the user does not rely on their own energy,but with adrenaline or an external force,this would explain why the user looks very hyper and energetic when all of the doubles are in tact,and exhausted when all of the doubles are destroyed.This can sometimes be accompanied by the user floating a few feet off the ground,this is the result when there is more than enough energy needed for the current number of doubles,but not enough to create another.(So basically,this)
Passive:Shadow Ball:Creates a large ball of energy that causes anything within it's radius to be invincible.The larger the ball,and the more objects in the radius,the more energy it takes.Like the Double Attack,this power also drains the users energy,however,contrarily,this one drains gradually,while the other is instantaneous.The duration of the ball also drains energy,and when the ball disappears,like the clone attack,the user will be left tired and exhausted if the power of the ball is overused/abused.

Bio (1-3 paragraphs):Aiden,from birth,was a relatively normal boy,despite difficulties in maintaining complex relationships,such as friendships,he always seemed to have a normal life.He was what many would refer to as "emo" and a "nerd".He never seemed to get along with his parents in his teenage years,as he always did when he was a little child out of fear,as his father was very strict...often times too strict...abusing Aiden for the smallest of disobediencies.Aiden,in his early years,had a very quick temper.Many personal family members thought it was his bad relationship with his father,others believed his temper was heriditary,while only a few knew what was really going on.One morning,after his 14th birthday,Aiden woke up to the horrid scene of his parents mutilated in their room.Blood was everywhere,and there were very large and noticeable wounds,still dripping with blood that was left gushing out for the entire night.

The police report indicated no signs of a break-in,and it was believed that the weapon used was an old axe laying in the garage,with Aiden's fingerprints on them.There was also a small amount of his parent's blood found in Aiden's room,with no footprints but his own.Police speculated that it was Aiden who mercilessly murdered his parents in the darkness of the night in cold-blood.When the police attempted to apprehend Aiden,he went berserk,and actually attacked the officers.The officers were able to restrain him,but not for long,as according to witness reports,Aiden was actually able to pick both officers up with each of his hands,and threw them into his house,breaking right through the hard brick walls.According to the witnesses,a dark,black mist had appeared out of nowhere when Aiden overpowered the officers,and they could have sworn they had seen his eyes were as red as fire before going black,then blue,and finally white,as he fainted afterward.

It was then believed that Aiden had been sent to a mental facility,for according to reports,he had completely lost his sanity after the death of his parents.He was stuck in the sanitorium for four years.Many workers at the asylum usually had kind words to say about Aiden,he was a nice guy this,he wouldn't hurt a fly that,the reports were lies here,he shouldn't be in here there...on it went.But there was something the workers were hiding that they refused to disclose to the public...it was that Aiden had said so many times that he would see things,while others would say they weren't there,or they wouldn't see it.Many had ignored the issue,until one stormy night...

It was the usual rounds for security guards,clock in,inspection inspection inspection,clock out,all night.When one of the guards came to Aiden's cell,he had said something to him that he could not hear.The guard had asked him to speak up,and Aiden,in a hushed,almost scared voice,said "You better watch out tonight...it's not safe..."
The guard,remembering that he is talking to a legally insane person,continued walking,dismissing Aiden's warning.Later in his inspection,the guard came across the cell of another one of the sanitarium's well known patients.It was there,that the guard had heard strange noises which he said were inhuman and possibly even satanic.As he nervously came closer,it was then that he discovered that the patient of the cell he was approaching was chewing on the body of another guard.As the guard reached for his gun,the patient,having noticed the guard,let out a terrifying and loud shriek (Similar to this) as her eyes turned fiery red,then black,then blue,and then white,then she tried to reach for him through the cell,unable to grab him as he was just a few inches from reach.The guard had then shot her,but it seemed ineffective,until he shot her again,and she fell,dead.It was only a matter of seconds before he heard that bone-chilling shriek again,but it sounded far-away,he turned,and saw nothing.A few seconds later,he heard it again,it sounded closer.And then passed even more seconds,and the shriek sounded right in his ear.Afraid for his life,he shot his pistol everywhere,he didn't care if he shot a few patients,he just wanted to kill whatever was stalking him.The guard reported that it was then he could actually see it...a demonic like creature...going for him.He had said that it had tripped him and began to attack him.After regaining momentum,he got up and ran away as fast as he could.When he was sure he had lost the "thing",he stopped running,tired.He had then noticed that he was standing outside of Aiden's cell,the same Aiden that had warned him earlier.The guard had banged on Aiden's cell,awaking him from his slumber,and told him of what had happened.Aiden seemed all but confused,as he knew exactly what he meant.According to the guard,Aiden seemed calm and relaxed about talking about these creatures that he has seen.When he was sure it was safe,the guard had said a goodnight to Aiden,and went off his way,running away at full speed once more,as he had said that he heard the far-off shriek once more.After submitting this report,the guard was found dead in his bedroom at home,and,like Aiden's parents,had very large and noticeable wounds,with blood still dripping from them,despite appearing dried up and emptied out.

It was then that the military had noticed that there might have been more to Aiden's words than they may believed.In late 2012,a few months after Aiden's 18th birthday,Aiden Lewis Ethans was checked out of Ravenhill Sanitarium on behalf and by order of the CIA.His years of madness and insanity were finally over,he couldn't believe it!It was then that Aiden was introduced to a well known organization called Warriors of Insanity District,where people like him,who could see things that many would regard insane and unreal,were treated as heroes and gods.He was later introduced to the concept of the Seers and the evils of the Oni.After going through vigorous training and tests,Aiden officially became a fully fledged member of the WID on October,1st,2012

District Choice (ex. North America):North America

Name: Lyra White
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Appearance: Here.
Personality: Lyra is a quiet and shy person. She acts politely towards strangers and friends alike, and isn't a person who speaks much, unless it is to someone she considers a good friend. She usually maintains herself calm, even without the help of the Sanctuary, though she gets unnerved in dark or closed spaces, or big crowds, and avoids them if at all possible. She is a kind person and cares deeply for those she considers friends.
Allegiance: WID
Choose one of the Following: Magical/Elemental/Enhanced Weaponry
Weapon Type: Holy Magic
Special Ability: Sanctuary: Lyra has a shroud of white light around her, invisible to humans, barely visible to Seers and Oni. Those inside the Sanctuary, including Lyra herself, enjoy certain benefits: Any defects that they have (Astigmatism or something of the sort, for example) are diminished, anyone wounded enjoys from faster regeneration from said wounds, and everyone inside is granted a feeling of serenity and calmness, along with greater strenght of mind. Lyra can turn this ability on and off at will (Or well, will be able to when she realizes she's doing it at all), and it is her only special ability, so with it turned off she passes as a normal human, even to Oni and Seers.
Bio: Lyra White was born on a cold winter night, sometime in December. Her shimmering white hair understandably surprised her parents, for neither of them had such hair, or such blue eyes, for that matter. Thus, even after the mother insisted that she had not cheated on her husband and slept with another man, her parents ended up divorcing. Lyra's time with them was brief, as she was given on adoption at that point, and as such, she doesn't remember almost anything about her parents, who, by the way, were both her biological parents, despite the evidence pointing otherwise.
The years passed, and Lyra's foster parents grew quite attached to her, as for some reason whenever she was around everyone turned amicable and serene. Due to this, people around her loved her, though she herself had no idea why such things happened. Then when she turned fifteen, stranger things began happening. Bursts of light appearing outside the window and dissappearing just as quickly, wounds sustained healing faster when she was around, and one time she hurt her knee particularly badly, but with a small prayer, it soon healed with no possible explanation.
Then, one day, the Oni appeared. Some said that she was going insane from the weird things happening around her, some others commented that perhaps it was just more of that. Some, however, pointed fingers at her, calling her the source of the strange happenings. Whether or not any of this was true was never known, because one good day, a man appeared and explained everything to her, the Oni, the Seers, everything. She had a hard time understanding all of this, but she choose to believe, and, with the assistance of the man, she was sent off to the WID Academy.
RP Example: Lyoko: Skyfall. -Nods-
District Choice: Uh, whichever, really. Actually, Oceania, just because we'd have weird monster-like animals in addition to the Oni, .

Name:
Alice Ellis

Gender:
Female

Age (13-18):
16

Appearance:
Alice stands at 5'4 with short to mid-length, dark black hair and deep blue eyes. She commonly wears a blue t-shirt and a knee-length blue skirt.

Personality:
Unsocial. Alice will rarely go out of her way to talk to anybody. If someone manages to get to know her, they will quickly realize that they wasted their time, as she is rather uncaring for people in general, and has something of a sarcastic streak. She is rarely truly emotional, although she will pretend that she is if the mood strikes her. Most of what she does, and how she acts, is purely for her own entertainment. Luckily, she's intelligent enough for it not to matter too much when "entertainment" means "skip class".

Allegiance (Independent, Oni, WID):
Independent

Choose one of the Following:
Enhanced Weaponry

Weapon Type:
Twin Daggers

Special Ability:
Insanity Breaker (Passive Ability): Due to her connection with oni from a young age, Alice projects a similar aura around her at all times. Its effects are twofold. First, it makes it considerably more difficult for normal humans to notice her unless she, or someone not affected by this effect, goes out of their way to get their attention. Second, it makes mental effects from external sources, both natural and supernatural, ineffective on her.

Bio (1-3 paragraphs):
From a young age, Alice could see things that other people could not. She quickly found that it was a bad idea to inform others of this fact. As a result, she spent much of her childhood isolated from other humans, confiding instead in her "imaginary friend". As she began to further ignore humanity, humanity began to return the favor, and eventually, she went from "that creepy quiet girl in the back of the class" to "that one girl no one ever notices".

There were, of course, still people who occasionally paid her some attention: her parents. Sadly, they were commonly very busy. Her father was a brilliant scientist, and her mother was a gifted doctor, and as such, they rarely had time for their child. Many times, no one, human or otherwise, was there for Alice to connect with. It was times like this that she buried herself in books, eventually reading through every book in the house.

Of course, given her nature and that of her friend, the peaceful days of her childhood could not last forever. When your only friend is an oni, things tend to happen around you. Whispers began to fly around her school of a cursed girl, and her friend was more than happy to act on them. As in many such situations, there was one person who decided to try to find how much truth was behind these rumors, but tragically they lost their life in an trip down a flight of stairs. After this, the rumors intensified, and followed her to every school she attended from then on.

Not that Alice particularly cared about the rumors, of course, apart from some annoyance at the increased attention. However, as more similar incidents occurred, eventually the rumors gained such strength that her parents found out who they were about. In an attempt to work for Alice's best interests, they decided that it would be best to send her to Hyde Academy, a boarding school on the other side of the world, where no one would have access to the local rumors.

The day of her departure quickly approached. One night, the night before she left, her friend called her to her parents' room, to "show her something". It was there that she saw something that would change her life forever. Her oni friend stood over her parents, cutting and stabbing at them repeatedly with twin daggers as their screams echoed into the night. As Alice stared at the spectacle, she realized something. She felt neither terror, nor sadness, nor anything else she would expect to feel from watching the deaths of the only two humans who ever really cared about her. She briefly wondered if she had gone insane from the shock, but felt she had too much control over her thoughts for that to be a possibility. There was just...nothing.

Her friend soon finished up, and turned its attention back to her. It grinned, before tossing its blades at her. In her mind, the fact that she managed to catch them, without hurting herself, was the final test of her mental state. She was, mentally, entirely unaffected by her parents' deaths. Her oni friend then informed her that it would not be following her to her new home, and wanted to give her a final present to remember it by. Then, before she could react, it jumped from the window, fleeing into the night. She spent the remainder of the night searching around the area and (taking out a few lesser oni along the way, to test her new blades) but eventually, morning arrived, and it was time to leave. While there was later an investigation into her parents' death, the world's usual disregard for her meant that she would remain undisturbed by it.

RP Example:
Alice walked through the halls in silence, seeking a nice, quiet spot to spend her lunch break. A place away from all of the people, where she could talk to the one thing in her life that she would ever care to talk to. He (it had decided to be a male today) stalked quietly next to her, not that the silence was needed. Alice was the only one in the entire school that could see him, as far as she knew.

They turned a corner, and ran directly into the one person in the school Alice wanted to see least. "Hi there!" said energetically, looking to Alice with excitement in her eyes. Why would this girl not leave her alone? For the past week, she turned up whenever Alice tried to find some peace and quiet. It was unbearable. In the beginning, it had been fun making up excuses to avoid her, or ways to send her off on a wild good chase, but it was quickly becoming quite tiresome.

Alice turned away quickly, trying to make it quite clear that she did not wish to be bothered today. The girl, not taking the hint, followed closely behind. "Are you ready to talk to me today?" she asked, trying to keep up with Alice's ever increasing pace. Both were practically running now, Alice leading by a considerable margin, as she took a staircase three steps at a time.

"Wait!" she heard a voice call from behind her. The rest of the students in the hall began to stare at the commotion the other girl was causing. Alice simply kept moving. Hopefully, the crowd of students would slow the other girl down, or a teacher would stop her from running in the halls. Alice grinned slightly at the thought. That kind of thing would never happen to her. No one ever really noticed Alice, save for the rare few. Most just ignored her, or were content to make up rumors about her. Some people, however...

"Stop!" she heard again from behind her, the voice of the few. Alice stopped in her tracks, but it wasn't that request that stopped her. No, it was the repeated thud of a body falling down a staircase. Slowly, she turned around, surveying her surroundings. Her first thought was that her friend was nowhere in sight, and decided to re-trace her steps to go find him. She didn't have to look very far. He stood near the staircase, looking something like a puppy waiting for his master to return. A very guilty puppy who had just made a mess on the rug. She signaled him in her direction with a small hand gesture.

As soon as he was again by her side, she decided to join the crowd that had gathered near to the staircase. Her curiosity had gotten the better of her, and she had decided to take a peek at whatever had unfolded on the staircase. What she saw was horrific; the girl that had been following her was lying in a crumpled heap at the foot of the stairs. Her limbs were bent in several unnatural configurations, and a large pool of blood was quickly forming underneath her body. There was no doubt in her mind that the girl was dead. She again turned, away from the crowd, away from the carnage, and began walking away. She had better things to do than stare at a dead girl all day, after all.

The hallway had gone quiet after the accident, but soon whispers replaced the silence. And she began to feel them: the stares at her back as she walked away. She knew that they were talking about her. It was the same years ago. The hushed tones, the suspicious looks, all of it. It all annoyed her, but she knew that it would be over soon. She rarely managed to stay on the radar for very long.

Name: Moonlight Eden

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Appearance: Image

Personality: Strange, unstable, sad. Those are the three most common adjectives people who have met Moonlight use to describe him. Those closer to him, however, declare him as very caring and well-mannered (at least he tries to be, some clarify), but also prone to what can only be defined as "insane ramblings" and the occasional suicide attempt. While heavy medication has helped stabilize his sometimes dangerous and self-destructive behaviour, it has not hindered the incomprehensible inner workings of his mind, nor has it made his delusions any less constant and troubling. What not even his most beloved friends and relatives know, however, is that Moonlight's mental capacity, while affected by mental illness and trauma, is that of a true genius. His deductive skills surpass by far those of most human beings, and the power of his silver tongue has become notorious. He is also extremely political, brutally honest and has an intense fear of dogs.

Allegiance: WID

Choose one of the Following: Magical

Weapon Type: Dark magic (mostly Illusion Magic)

Special Ability: Persuasion: Moonlight can effortlessly convince anyone, human or Oni, to believe whatever he says and to do whatever he commands. However, using this power has one great cost, for intensive use of Persuasion can lead to further strain on Moonlight's mental state.

Bio: Moonlight Eden was born in Burford, England. His parents, Sebastian and Melissa, were horror writers and Wiccans, obsessed with the paranormal. Thus, from an early age, Moonlight was exposed to countless pieces of dark British folklore and conspiracy theories, most revolving around witchcraft. At the same time, he was the victim of constant physical and emotional abuse, his parents using him as a test subject for their research on the paranormal. The traumatic experiences left him mentally scarred for life, and played a mayor role in his breakdown later on.

Homeschooled until the age of ten, partly because of his weak immune system and partly because of his parents' paranoia, he was finally allowed to attend a boarding school in London, where the socially awkward and heavily traumatized little boy quickly became an outcast. The constant bullying he was subjected to, combined with the stress over his confusion regarding his sexual identity, made for the first breaking point in his life. Two years after entering, he was expelled from the school for publicly wearing a female school uniform, while rumours in the dark halls of the ancient institution spoke of heavily elaborated, and sometimes extremely harmful pranks of which he was the potential culprit.

From then on, it all went downhill in Moonlight's life. His parents, thinking they had found the ultimate source of magical power, resumed their experiments. They prepared their increasingly unstable son for one final ritual.

Finally, on a cold Decembre night, fourteen-year-old Moonlight Eden traveled to the dark world beyond our own, and witnessed the hidden horrors. In this realm his soul was carried through during the painful ritual, a creature, which Moonlight believed to be a demon, tortured him for what felt like days. Then, when Moonlight knew that his mind had gone past the point of no return, the demon made him an offer. In exchange for great magical power, power Moonlight could use to do as he pleased, this mysterious being asked for only one thing: that Moonlight had his own parents sacrifice their bodies and souls to him.

Once he returned to our world, Moonlight did not hesitate for a second before he used the power of Persuasion for the first time. This time around, Sebastian and Melissa Eden were the test subjects. And as they obeyed his kind request and ripped each other's hearts out of their chests, Moonlight, now utterly broken, only giggled.

When the Police finally decided to investigate what had happened, they were met with the sight of Moonlight lying on the floor between his parents' corpses, crying with a paradoxical mixture of joy and guilt. Despite having no physical evidence to prove so, the officers and prosecutor in charge of the gruesome case, dubbed the "Eden Ritual Carnage", pressed charges against Moonlight. However, with the boy being still a minor with a blatant mental condition, the court decided to send him off to the infamous Bedlam instead of prison.

In the years that followed, with the help of therapy and much medication, Moonlight's behaviour improved substantially, even if little to no advances were made on his actual mental state. In time, the authorities of the mental facility gave him permission to purchase and use a personal computer. Moonlight used his new resources to pursue the dream to become a journalist, taking courses in writing and creating a blog, which he gleefully used to describe his life experiences and, especially, share the knowledge he had acquired in the dark realm beyond. With practice, and the occasional use of his power to persuade, he garnered a relatively large fan base, even when the mainstream media labelled him "a potentially dangerous whackjob", "an imaginative scammer" and "a mentally ill deviant" (as well as "a sex symbol for schizophrenics", due to his handsome looks and unusual style).

Eventually, soon after turning seventeen, he became notorious enough to gain the attention of the Warriors of Insanity District. They kidnapped him from Bedlam and forcibly enrolled him in the WID's academy. The WID soon decided to employ his hidden but admirable research and persuasion skills while providing him with the best education and training money could by, and keeping him constantly drugged and under tight surveillance.

District Choice: Europe

Name: Kiore Reyen
Gender: Male
Age (13-18): 18
Appearance:

(Image)

Personality: He likes to make people think he's the calm, quiet type, but he really acts aggressive. His motto is 'If you aren't with me, get the hell out of my way.' He works alone, since most people don't like his style, especially people who like to keep things covered up.
Allegiance: Independent
Choose one of the Following: Magical
Weapon Type: He uses Light magic, but physically, meaning he has to be in range to land a hit that would normally take a weapon. More simply, to fight, he has to be in blade-range. At a long range, he's useless on the offensive.
Special Ability: He can shield himself completely for one attack, freeing him to launch an attack without fear of one counterattack, but has to take a good hour or so rest before he does it again.
Bio: Once he found he could see things others couldn't, and saw that those things were causing harm to others, he started to play the hero. He's a self-appointed protector of humanity. He was considered insane by others, and even now still is sometimes, but refuses to stop trying to tell others what he sees.

Accepted Oni Characters

Name: What is a name? Is it merely a collection of spoken sounds and written letters that is used to identify one of a great mass? Or is it something else, something that says something deeper about the inner person? Do we have a true name? Something so powerful that it sums up our entire being? Either way, this character was born Asaad bin Alum, "died" Asaad bin Alum, but has lived alongside men like Robertspier and Napoleon. Now he goes by Silva, Benjamin Silva.
Gender: Male
Age: 4992
Appearance:

(Image)

Allegiance: Oni
Power Type: Physical
Special Ability: Werewolf

• Can, obviously, turn into a half man half wolf shape, with claws. Sharp nasty claws, and senses heightened beyond that of a normal human, as well as strength and agility several times more powerful than the average human
• At age one hundred, your average Werewolf get's it's Wisdom Fangs, a second set of fangs next to the first that only appear when shifted. These fangs grant the ability to control when and where you change, as well as to control yourself when changed
• However, even a fully mature werewolf must be wary of the full moon, as its power forces a Werewolf to change, and without the utmost concentration and a powerful will, it will cause even the most moral of werewolves to run rampant, a raging killing machine. It can however be controlled, a Silver locket with Wolfsbane inside can usually stop the transformation.
• That whole thing about how a Silver bullet can kill a werewolf? You ever tried being shot in the heart with a bullet, Silver or no? Silver is no more harmful to a werewolf than any other type of metal. It is however, useful in other instances [see above]

Bio (1-3 paragraphs):Born in 1658 to a Russian middle class working family, James grew up knowing exactly how much he was worth. As a man, as an Oni, and as a worker. He grew into manhood during August of his sixteenth year, a year of turmoil. Seers prowled the land, with no mercy in their hearts for Oni and their ilk. A werewolf himself, James knew he would not be spared the wrath of the uneducated, should it fall upon his head. So, he scraped and saved, as did his parents, until his eighteenth year, when James attended Medical School in Moscow. There he learned various treatments and skills, which he would put to great effect later in his life.

For the next hundred years James did little of note. He wandered Europe as a traveling doctor, and amassing a small fortune, which he placed into banks scattered across the continent. He visited each one only every fifty or so years, posing as a descendant of himself. With every year, his fortune grew, or his "family" fortune did. It was in the year 1776 that James first perked up and took notice of the world beyond Europe. The American colonies were in revolt, and more surprisingly, England did not crush them in the first month. Nor the second. Not the first year. The war dragged on, and it seemed more and more likely that the Rebels would win out. James was astounded. A small minority, fighting against an empire, that won? By use of unconventional, yet honorable tactics, and cunning instead of brute force no less. It was a lesson James took to heart.

After the French Revolution, James joined the French Army as a volunteer, hoping to experience more of life. And he did. When the French learned of his status as a Oni, they put him into a clandestine unit, Couteau de la République. The Knife of the Republic. It was there that James first learned how to fight, and how to kill. La Coteau de la Republique was a clandestine assassination unit, under the direct supervision of the ruler of France, no one else. Very few besides the current ruler and his top generals even knew of the unit's existence. Even fewer knew it's name. They carried out assassinations all over the continent, and the British Isles. In the year 1782 alone, James was responsible for the deaths of; William Talbot, 1st Earl Talbot, Marquis of Pombal, Portuguese prime minister, and Charles Watson-Wentworth, 2nd Marquess of Rockingham, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. All of these men were deemed dangerous to the survival of France. Justly or unjustly.

James continued to serve during the Napoleonic wars. Sir James William Montgomery died at his hand, as did William Pitt the Younger. A few, less notable, characters, generals and the like, also died by his hand.

When Napoleon lost the wars James went into hiding, and refused to re-enter the service during Napoleon's return. Ever since, he has been wandering the continent, posing as a doctor, but not afraid of taking assassination jobs on the side.

District Choice: Europe. (You want me you Oni hating bastards? Come and get me)

Name: Firagura's Avatar.
Gender: None.
Age: Debatable.
Appearance: Fire. Lots of fire. It doesn't even bother assuming a humanoid shape any more.
Allegiance: Independent.
Power Type: Fire
Special Ability: Well, it's MADE OF FIRE. It also throws fireballs at people, moves at crazy speeds and no-one has a clue how to kill it. Inordinate amounts of water seem to work, but even the fire brigade have only managed to get it to go away for half an hour.
Bio: Firagura's Avatar was meant to be a really powerful spell made by the Oni Firagura, which transformed the caster into a fiery form. This allowed the wielder massive control over fire, and was basically a fiery god mode.

However, the spell took on a will of its own and became a separate entity. Because no-one's allowed to be that powerful. Although significantly weaker, the Avatar no longer worries about constraints such as location or shape.

District Choice: I don't care.

Name: Baal
Gender (?): Irrelevant.
Age (?): Incalculable.
Appearance: Constantly shifting, one moment a young woman, the next a bearded old man, then perhaps a frolicking infant. It has never been observed to stop changing.
Allegiance (Independent or Oni): Independent
Power Type: Insanity.
Special Ability (Please Describe): Baal was for a time worshiped as the patron god of insanity, and not without reason. Its appearance is constantly shifting, never remaining quite the same. Looking at it for a sustained period of time will drive any person or Seer completely insane.
Bio (1-3 paragraphs): Baal is a remnant from a time without reason, without order, a shard of the chaos of the universe's birth. It simply is. It is the darkness, the shadow and the silence, the creeping horror that lurks in the depths of the animal mind. It is madness, the shriek on a lunatic's breath, the gleam in a murderer's eye. It is insanity, the disease of men in straightjackets gibbering in padded rooms.

It is Baal.

Name: The Soothsayer
Gender: Male
Age: From his perspective he has been alive for only a few thousand years. From a mortal perspective he has been around for eons.
Appearance: Image
Allegiance: Oni
Power Type: Illusion Manipulation
Special Ability: See above. He is a master of deceit and persuasion. He can conjure up elaborate scenes of hallucination that seem as real as anything to those affected, but in fact are all within their heads. He can "implant" or "suggest" ideas directly into the human and -- sometimes -- the Oni brain, causing them to think or choose differently than they normally would. He has the ability to endlessly change his form with his illusion manipulation, but mainly chooses the form of a human male of middle age, ragged and apparently homeless, carrying a sign that reads THE END IS NIGH.
Bio: Time is objective for an immortal being, and age is something very subjective indeed. By his own calculations, the Soothsayer would say that he is a mere 3,411 years of age. By human standards this is quite impressive, but in reality -- or at least by human standards of time -- he has been alive since the dawn of the universe as we know it. A malevolent being at heart, as are most Oni, the Soothsayer possesses the peculiar ability of Illusion Manipulation. His potent intellect allows him to conjure up intense and realistic hallucinations to plague his victims and trick their every sense, plunging them deeper and deeper into his web of intrigue and lies. His silver tongue implants thoughts into the minds of men and Oni alike, deceitfully causing them to choose according to his will rather than their own. He has been seen in civilizations from the Mayans to the United States, always bearing a placard proclaiming the end times. No one truly knows his motives or even his true allegiance, but it is safe to assume that he works for the Onis for now.
RP Example: Me.

Name: Born Juilius Fredrick William Albert de Paulo, however he does not use that name presently and instead prefers "Aelfric".
Gender: Male.
Age: Over a hundred, but time has begun to blur for him.
Appearance: Image
Physical, Human: Aelfric, when he assumes the form of a human, takes the image of what he looked like in his life time - though his fashion has changed with the times. He is roughly attractive, with straight chestnut blond hair just past his ears and dark blue eyes, combined with a oval face and strong jaw that still has a covering of dark gold stubble from the morning Aelfric died. Aelfric has lightly tanned skin and an athletic body, that while it couldn't be called "muscular" or "built", is toned from his swimming, a sport he once pursued during his lifetime. Aelfric presently dresses casual, in a T-shirt, blue jeans, leather belt and strong walking shoes.
Spirit, Oni: When in Oni form, Aelfric appears as a wispy blue spirit - vaguely shaped like the outline of a human male, with many smoky tendrils coming off him. His eyes are the only area of him that appears solid and realm, converting to two hovering orbs of blue flame.
Allegiance: Independent
Power Type: Telekinetic
Special Ability: As a poltergeist, Aelfric has mild telekinetic powers - namely, that he can move small to mid-sized objects with his mind, teleport inanimate objects short distances, and especially the power for which poltergeists are known, causing random destruction with a thought; cursing objects to make them simply stop working, or break in the most random of manners.
Bio: Aelfric was born Juilius de Paulo sometime in the 19th century, the son of a wealthy minor Italian noble. His mother, the daughter of a Grecian merchant, married his father at the age of 19 and Aelfric was born two years later. His father was a influential local political figure, and opposed the unification of Italy - which was to be his downfall.

In the mid 1800s during the Wars of Italian Unification, Aelfric's father sent him and his mother away and raised a small army to oppose the forces of Sardinia who were nearing Rome. However he was swiftly routed and fled to the family castle with those loyal to him, where he was promptly bombarded out by canon fire and killed.
His wife and son never knew what became of him, and fled to Aelfric's mothers homeland of Greece. There, she established a small business with the support of her father.

Aelfric lived a normal life for the next decades, however his mothers business went bankrupt that year and with the opening of immigration to Australia he joined the thousands looking for a new start in the "New World", hoping for an opportunity that he could use to support his mother with the profits from.
Aelfric was murdered only a month after arriving in Australia, killed walking home as the innocent victim of a drunken brawl in a nearby pub that expanded out into the road as he happened to be passing.

A nearby Oni, looking for victims, converted him as he died - the side effect of converting him almost too late making him a ghostly spirit, called by some a "poltergeist".

District Choice: Oceania.

Name: Velissarios Komnenos
Gender (?): Male
Age (?): 900
Appearance: (Image)
Roughly what his Lycan form looks like:(Image)
Allegiance (Independent or Oni): Independent
Power Type: Physical and magical
Special Ability (Please Describe): Lycan; so quite competent at biting and clawing when in that form, obviously, some skill with dark magic, and a bit less with elemental, because he's a bit of an occultist, and he's learnt some things over time. Skilled with most weapons when in human form. Enhanced senses and reflexes he retains in both human and non-human forms. Reacts badly to Silver, as one might expect. Might find a few other weaknesses in the IC.

Bio (1-3 paragraphs): Born in A.D. 1112, Velissarios was a member of the legendary Komnenid dynasty that history never spoke of; the sixth son of John II Komnenos and Irene of Hungary. Quite early on, his talent in many areas was recognised by family and peers amongst the noble families that he maintained close contact with from a young age. He quickly became adept at things like swordsmanship and other weapons, and learned to ride with great skill from an early age. He became omni-lingual at a surprisingly fast rate. Unfortunately, as Velissarios grew up, he was regarded as a threat to certain other nobles of power, courtesy of Byzantine politics. He showed an interest in certain things he kept fairly secret, of an occult nature. He also showed an aptitude for drawing and several different instruments.
He was quite popular amongst the nobles, for his notable good looks among other reasons. He quickly became entrenched in politics and scheming of a complex nature, as well as certain mystical cults that thrived in the underside of Byzantium. Velissarios sometimes resorted to utilising dark magic to remove some of the more pesky adversaries he faced; though in the long run, this would end up creating more problems than solutions.

Under instructions by an individual who was a master of sorcery, he journeyed to a ruined fortress in what is now known as Kaljaja, or Prizren Fortress, in Prizren, Kosovo. He was informed there would be a reward in the form of a powerful artefact that would give him considerably more power than he already had, and would allow him to easily ascend to the throne of Basileia Romaion, or Byzantium. When venturing there, seemingly well-prepared for anything, he ventured into an abandoned tower in the fortress. There, was an intricately carved ancient safe; inside was an even older Sumerian cuneiform tablet. Velissarios approached it, not knowing that the proximity of someone with sorcerous power was enough to activate it. The trapped spirit of a long-dead Sumerian sorcerer,known simply as Enmerkar of Eridu, forced its way into Velissarios, surprising him. He resisted furiously as soon as he realized what was happening. Enmerkar had some control, but Velissarios had given no more ground; turning it into a stalemate.

The way it worked was such that stray thoughts and memories also shifted into Velissarios' perception, and in certain situations it would be more difficult than usual to maintain that grip, as admittedly, Enmerkar was not the sanest of individuals; most of the time, raving lunatic would be letting the dead mage off kindly. Nonetheless; there were some benefits. Enmerkar had been a powerful sorcerer in his time, and what he knew merged with the considerably smaller amount that Velissarios, still in his early 20s, knew at the time. A month or two later, Velissarios displayed an interest in methods of obtaining immortality, and scoured the library of Constantinople for certain books on the subject. Unfortunately, some shadowy individuals thought it would be a twist of irony if he received the gift of not ageing, but for a price. During one of his searches through the enormous library, a group of Lycans ambushed him. A few were killed by either his blade or his magic, but one closed in on him, inflicting a wound that was enough to ensure that he would be infected too. Velissarios knew what would happen, without Enmerkar babbling inanely in the back of his head. So, he quietly gathered his possessions, and made an excuse about leaving the empire to his family, saying that he would be away for a few months.

Meanwhile, certain individuals in his service quietly removed most written accounts of him from existence. Velissarios was responsible for a number of massacres in a number of villages and small settlements, also of certain travelling caravans. This was during the first few transformations; when he had not got the hang of controlling them and his thirst for slaughter was too strong. The spirit of Enmerkar, sometimes shouting in his head in Greek, or Sumerian; as the transfer of knowledge, memories and the like went both ways, didn't help much, as he often advocated bloodshed when there was no need. Sometimes Enmerkar even gained temporary control of Velissarios' body, and to put it simply; bad stuff happened, as one might expect when an insane ancient Sumerian sorcerer manages to gain control of a partially possessed Greek Lycan. He kept on the move a lot, occasionally purchasing places in various parts of Europe as he made his way around. Questions would be asked, as after a few decades, he knew he would not age. Thus, people would inevitably get suspicious if he gave them the opportunity to do so. Occasionally, vampires found him out and tried to kill him every few decades or so, and they got far closer than normal humans or hunters had before, so he fears them as much as he hates them. Some of them either escaped alive, or left him nearly dead, despite a decent amount of magic at his command, with some help in that department from Enmerkar.

In the world wars, he actively made efforts to slaughter any soldiers that stepped near his grounds. These became places that were shunned and avoided by opposing sides and scouting efforts ended up disasters, so many simply blanked these places out and marked them as no-go areas, and he managed to ensure that there was just enough incentive for the more important leaders of the third Reich, to never look into these places, and focus on the Allies and the resistance fighters. Velissarios had a feeling about the outcome of the war, and simply chose to stay out of it, as he knew that it could go badly wrong for him if he were to be involved. Sometimes, those who went in search for occult artefacts in such places found seemingly empty buildings, and at other times, they simply disappeared. For a lot longer than that, though, was the fact that the locals always stayed away from his abodes, for they viewed such places as cursed and evil. Now, in modern day, he keeps things even more well hidden, and has managed to collect many things of mundane and occult nature over the centuries, travelling as he often does.

---

Lyra White, Aiden Lewis Ethans, Moonlight Eden, and Alice Ethans all moved individually to Sydney, Australia and have been chosen to join Hyde Academy, a prestigious school that has ties with the Warriors of the Insanity District (WID) and the Academy of Alvino Winston Castille. The WID is a global organization that has vowed to defeat Oni wherever they turned. Aiden, Moonlight, and Alvino are official members of the WID, with Aiden just joining mere hours ago. Aiden had been assigned to work with Alvino, a member that has been in the District for three years.

Alvino was heading to class when he received the message he now had a new partner. As he was returning, he ran into Lyra in the hallways. Suddenly, Onius Scissorus attacked them and Alvino began to fight them off in the hallways. Unbeknownst to him at the time, she was actually a Seer as well who had no connection to the District. She assisted Alvino in defeating the Oni and helped heal his face. Just as they were about to engage in another round, Moonlight entered the hallways and seized control of the Oni. After ordering to commit seppuku, the three of them began to talk, when Aiden crashed into Lyra. Alvino realized that Lyra was not part of the district and that Aiden was his partner. As he was talking with them, he noticed a man in a suit down the hall that suddenly disappeared without warning.

At that time, Darius Black was talking with another Oni. The Oni went nuts and attacked Darius. He chased it to the Academy, whereupon he killed it with black fire. Meanwhile, Alice Ethans was chasing down an Oni that stole her sock. She found the Oni and squashed it. Alvino noticed Darius outside and rushed out to get information with the rest of the group. As they talked with the new kid, a man by the name of the Soothsayer appeared and stood across the street with a sign. He tugged B’aal, a demon Oni, to Australia and B’aal turned into a dog that started to yap at Lyra. Alvino recognized the dog was an Oni and noticed the man with the suit yet again. He decided to take the others along on a mission and brought them towards the café. The Soothsayer whispered a few words of warning into their ears and then said nothing more. Alice, thoroughly interested by this point, decided to follow/stalk them. Around this time, a man by the name of Benjamin Sylvia decided to assault a District base in Europe, with success. He made a decision to leave Europe and fly out to Australia due to a general lack of District members in the country.

Alvino brought the group to a café to have a bite to eat and discuss the upcoming mission. As they were eating, Alvino noticed the man with the suit once more. Once the man with the suit disappeared, he stood and prepared for another attack. The wait was not long as an Onius Gooplexus burst up with its tentacles from the manhole and attacked the area. Alvino, Lyra, and Aiden engaged the Oni, while Moonlight watched. Alice decided to have a joyride and rode upon a tentacle like a mechanical bull.

The fight was destined to be a difficult one, had not it been for Aelfric’s arrival. He was a poltergeist that could use telekinesis. He realized that it would be somewhat fun to help out, and helped Alvino stab the Oni right in the brain. After the fight ended, Alvino noticed Alice and Aelfric. After exchanging pleasantries, Alvino decided to run to the restroom before the mission. In his absence, B’aal decided upon a plan. He turned into a duplicate of Alvino and attempted to gain the trust of the rest of the group. He failed miserably, as Moonlight and Aiden toyed with B’aal while Lyra played with a kitten. Alvino returned, and noticed the doppelganger. After hysterically laughing at the situation, he and B’aal prepared for a fight. Just as the fight began, Moonlight intervened and forced the fight to come to a halt. With a few choice words, Alvino’s memories flooded back and he snapped in a fit of fury. After cooling down a bit and exchanging pleasantries with B’aal, the Oni decided to leave, much to Alvino’s disappointment.

With B’aal leaving and not causing destruction, the mission was accidentally completed. Alvino received a call from Mr. Wilson, the director for the Australian Sub-branch of the District. He tasked Alvino, Moonlight, and Aiden to form a team and move into the new team base. Alvino, realizing the opportunity, invited Lyra and attempted to tell Alice that he will not interfere with her any longer. Lyra accepted the invitation and Alice mad a decision to join the team anyways. Aelfric requested to join to which Alvino agreed. At that point, Darius caught up with the rest of the group and asked what was happening. Alvino explained the situation to him and began to wonder what the future would entail.

Wonderful. Can't wait to see it!

[Mexican Liberation]

Name:Aiden Lewis Ethans
Gender:Male
Age (13-18):18
Appearance:

Personality:Fragile and Shy but can also be Mischievous and Agressive,rarely ever says more than a sentence or two publicly,finds it very hard to socialize without sounding/appearing rather awkward...has a personal history of anger management issues,but seemed to have disappeared as he got older...
Allegiance (Independent, Oni, WID):WID
Choose one of the Following: Elemental
Weapon Type:Dark Matter/Air
Special Ability (Please Describe):2 Abilities:Agressive:Double Attack:Uses own energy to create doubles of himself,the doubles either become autonomous or can be controlled by the original to follow his every move,this is useful for attacking.When slightly damaged,a double will either regenerate or slowly fade away into dust.When heavily/critically damaged,a double will almost certainly immediately fade into nothingness as well,the energy returning to the original.The attack almost always drains the user's energy,rendering them weak and drowsy,dizziness accompanying.During the attack,the user does not rely on their own energy,but with adrenaline or an external force,this would explain why the user looks very hyper and energetic when all of the doubles are in tact,and exhausted when all of the doubles are destroyed.This can sometimes be accompanied by the user floating a few feet off the ground,this is the result when there is more than enough energy needed for the current number of doubles,but not enough to create another.(So basically,this)
Passive:Shadow Ball:Creates a large ball of energy that causes anything within it's radius to be invincible.The larger the ball,and the more objects in the radius,the more energy it takes.Like the Double Attack,this power also drains the users energy,however,contrarily,this one drains gradually,while the other is instantaneous.The duration of the ball also drains energy,and when the ball disappears,like the clone attack,the user will be left tired and exhausted if the power of the ball is overused/abused.

Bio (1-3 paragraphs):Aiden,from birth,was a relatively normal boy,despite difficulties in maintaining complex relationships,such as friendships,he always seemed to have a normal life.He was what many would refer to as "emo" and a "nerd".He never seemed to get along with his parents in his teenage years,as he always did when he was a little child out of fear,as his father was very strict...often times too strict...abusing Aiden for the smallest of disobediencies.Aiden,in his early years,had a very quick temper.Many personal family members thought it was his bad relationship with his father,others believed his temper was heriditary,while only a few knew what was really going on.One morning,after his 14th birthday,Aiden woke up to the horrid scene of his parents mutilated in their room.Blood was everywhere,and there were very large and noticeable wounds,still dripping with blood that was left gushing out for the entire night.

The police report indicated no signs of a break-in,and it was believed that the weapon used was an old axe laying in the garage,with Aiden's fingerprints on them.There was also a small amount of his parent's blood found in Aiden's room,with no footprints but his own.Police speculated that it was Aiden who mercilessly murdered his parents in the darkness of the night in cold-blood.When the police attempted to apprehend Aiden,he went berserk,and actually attacked the officers.The officers were able to restrain him,but not for long,as according to witness reports,Aiden was actually able to pick both officers up with each of his hands,and threw them into his house,breaking right through the hard brick walls.According to the witnesses,a dark,black mist had appeared out of nowhere when Aiden overpowered the officers,and they could have sworn they had seen his eyes were as red as fire before going black,then blue,and finally white,as he fainted afterward.

It was then believed that Aiden had been sent to a mental facility,for according to reports,he had completely lost his sanity after the death of his parents.He was stuck in the sanitorium for four years.Many workers at the asylum usually had kind words to say about Aiden,he was a nice guy this,he wouldn't hurt a fly that,the reports were lies here,he shouldn't be in here there...on it went.But there was something the workers were hiding that they refused to disclose to the public...it was that Aiden had said so many times that he would see things,while others would say they weren't there,or they wouldn't see it.Many had ignored the issue,until one stormy night...

It was the usual rounds for security guards,clock in,inspection inspection inspection,clock out,all night.When one of the guards came to Aiden's cell,he had said something to him that he could not hear.The guard had asked him to speak up,and Aiden,in a hushed,almost scared voice,said "You better watch out tonight...it's not safe..."
The guard,remembering that he is talking to a legally insane person,continued walking,dismissing Aiden's warning.Later in his inspection,the guard came across the cell of another one of the sanitarium's well known patients.It was there,that the guard had heard strange noises which he said were inhuman and possibly even satanic.As he nervously came closer,it was then that he discovered that the patient of the cell he was approaching was chewing on the body of another guard.As the guard reached for his gun,the patient,having noticed the guard,let out a terrifying and loud shriek (Similar to this) as her eyes turned fiery red,then black,then blue,and then white,then she tried to reach for him through the cell,unable to grab him as he was just a few inches from reach.The guard had then shot her,but it seemed ineffective,until he shot her again,and she fell,dead.It was only a matter of seconds before he heard that bone-chilling shriek again,but it sounded far-away,he turned,and saw nothing.A few seconds later,he heard it again,it sounded closer.And then passed even more seconds,and the shriek sounded right in his ear.Afraid for his life,he shot his pistol everywhere,he didn't care if he shot a few patients,he just wanted to kill whatever was stalking him.The guard reported that it was then he could actually see it...a demonic like creature...going for him.He had said that it had tripped him and began to attack him.After regaining momentum,he got up and ran away as fast as he could.When he was sure he had lost the "thing",he stopped running,tired.He had then noticed that he was standing outside of Aiden's cell,the same Aiden that had warned him earlier.The guard had banged on Aiden's cell,awaking him from his slumber,and told him of what had happened.Aiden seemed all but confused,as he knew exactly what he meant.According to the guard,Aiden seemed calm and relaxed about talking about these creatures that he has seen.When he was sure it was safe,the guard had said a goodnight to Aiden,and went off his way,running away at full speed once more,as he had said that he heard the far-off shriek once more.After submitting this report,the guard was found dead in his bedroom at home,and,like Aiden's parents,had very large and noticeable wounds,with blood still dripping from them,despite appearing dried up and emptied out.

It was then that the military had noticed that there might have been more to Aiden's words than they may believed.In late 2012,a few months after Aiden's 18th birthday,Aiden Lewis Ethans was checked out of Ravenhill Sanitarium on behalf and by order of the CIA.His years of madness and insanity were finally over,he couldn't believe it!It was then that Aiden was introduced to a well known organization called Warriors of Insanity District,where people like him,who could see things that many would regard insane and unreal,were treated as heroes and gods.He was later introduced to the concept of the Seers and the evils of the Oni.After going through vigorous training and tests,Aiden officially became a fully fledged member of the WID on October,1st,2012

Personality:Fragile and Shy but can also be Mischievous and Agressive,rarely ever says more than a sentence or two publicly,finds it very hard to socialize without sounding/appearing rather awkward...has a personal history of anger management issues,but seemed to have disappeared as he got older...
Allegiance (Independent, Oni, WID):WID
Choose one of the Following: Elemental
Weapon Type:Dark Matter/Air
Special Ability (Please Describe):2 Abilities:Agressive:Double Attack:Uses own energy to create doubles of himself,the doubles either become autonomous or can be controlled by the original to follow his every move,this is useful for attacking.When slightly damaged,a double will either regenerate or slowly fade away into dust.When heavily/critically damaged,a double will almost certainly immediately fade into nothingness as well,the energy returning to the original.The attack almost always drains the user's energy,rendering them weak and drowsy,dizziness accompanying.During the attack,the user does not rely on their own energy,but with adrenaline or an external force,this would explain why the user looks very hyper and energetic when all of the doubles are in tact,and exhausted when all of the doubles are destroyed.This can sometimes be accompanied by the user floating a few feet off the ground,this is the result when there is more than enough energy needed for the current number of doubles,but not enough to create another.(So basically,this)
Passive:Shadow Ball:Creates a large ball of energy that causes anything within it's radius to be invincible.The larger the ball,and the more objects in the radius,the more energy it takes.Like the Double Attack,this power also drains the users energy,however,contrarily,this one drains gradually,while the other is instantaneous.The duration of the ball also drains energy,and when the ball disappears,like the clone attack,the user will be left tired and exhausted if the power of the ball is overused/abused.

Bio (1-3 paragraphs):Aiden,from birth,was a relatively normal boy,despite difficulties in maintaining complex relationships,such as friendships,he always seemed to have a normal life.He was what many would refer to as "emo" and a "nerd".He never seemed to get along with his parents in his teenage years,as he always did when he was a little child out of fear,as his father was very strict...often times too strict...abusing Aiden for the smallest of disobediencies.Aiden,in his early years,had a very quick temper.Many personal family members thought it was his bad relationship with his father,others believed his temper was heriditary,while only a few knew what was really going on.One morning,after his 14th birthday,Aiden woke up to the horrid scene of his parents mutilated in their room.Blood was everywhere,and there were very large and noticeable wounds,still dripping with blood that was left gushing out for the entire night.

The police report indicated no signs of a break-in,and it was believed that the weapon used was an old axe laying in the garage,with Aiden's fingerprints on them.There was also a small amount of his parent's blood found in Aiden's room,with no footprints but his own.Police speculated that it was Aiden who mercilessly murdered his parents in the darkness of the night in cold-blood.When the police attempted to apprehend Aiden,he went berserk,and actually attacked the officers.The officers were able to restrain him,but not for long,as according to witness reports,Aiden was actually able to pick both officers up with each of his hands,and threw them into his house,breaking right through the hard brick walls.According to the witnesses,a dark,black mist had appeared out of nowhere when Aiden overpowered the officers,and they could have sworn they had seen his eyes were as red as fire before going black,then blue,and finally white,as he fainted afterward.

It was then believed that Aiden had been sent to a mental facility,for according to reports,he had completely lost his sanity after the death of his parents.He was stuck in the sanitorium for four years.Many workers at the asylum usually had kind words to say about Aiden,he was a nice guy this,he wouldn't hurt a fly that,the reports were lies here,he shouldn't be in here there...on it went.But there was something the workers were hiding that they refused to disclose to the public...it was that Aiden had said so many times that he would see things,while others would say they weren't there,or they wouldn't see it.Many had ignored the issue,until one stormy night...

I'll start from basic training in the WID maybe,that's right after my character was introduced to the WID

But for sure,I will have him start on his first assignment if the above doesn't happen,or his first actual encounter with an Oni (meaning face to face standoff)

Well, we could actually start with another assignment for Alvino and with Aiden joining him for his first assignment at the new Academy. When new characters join, we'll adjust the beginning of the RP based on how many characters are part of the WID or the Oni and how many characters have yet to meet the WID or learn about their powers at all...

However, the plan is to get started RIGHT in the action from the first post.

Name: Darius Black

Gender: Male

Age (13-18): 18

Appearance: Tall, of an average build. His eyes are hazel, and his hair is long and brown. A pentagram-shaped scar reside son his right-wrist.

Personality: Quiet at times, and loyal to friends. Darius is intelligent and has a dark sense of humor, and a dark outlook on life.

Allegiance (Independent, Oni, WID):

Choose one of the Following: Magical

Weapon Type: Darius uses a combination of Dark Magic and Chi.

Special Ability (Please Describe): While Darius is skilled in magic in general, he has an ability that allows him to create a ball of energy by focusing his Chi (which he could ordinarily do) and infuse it with dark spells to drain the life-force of anyone it comes into contact with. The ability, when used upon a being, replenishes Darius as if he had just rested, and heals him slightly. He can use this again after a cooldown of two hours.

Bio (1-3 paragraphs):
Darius was born in a small town in Texas. He lived with his father on a farm for his childhood. He often talked of having "imaginary friends" which he would often talk to late into the night when he was supposed to be sleeping. He was entered into counceling when teachers witnessed him talking to these "imaginary friends" at school instead of interacting with the other children. These invisible beings had strange-sounding names such as "Un'Kai" or "Wrath".

One day, when Darius was nine years old, he was playing alone in his father's barn. It was a hot day, and the horses were skittish. In front of Darius, words started appearing in the dust on the floor, as if someone were writing a message with their finger. Darius didn't recognize the words, as they were in another language. Darius became comatose, as if put under a spell, and was severely burned on his right wrist. When Darius woke days later, his burn had healed into the shape of a pentagram.

Darius read books throughout his teenage years, learning about the Oni. He also studied the occult and withcraft, as well as the Buddhist philosophy. It was soon after this that Darius began casting actual spells, and his father disowned him and sent him away to his mother in Dallas, where he lived until he was eighteen. Darius devoted himself to interacting with the Oni, learning about them, and destroying them when he came across one that needed banishing.

Before I accept you, quick questions. Can you add a cool down time to your special ability? Like, once every hour or two? Also, should I assume that he has no idea the WID exists?

Interested. What do the Oni look like?

They can be anything! Just use your imagination!

Alright, serious now. Before every job begins, there will be a description of the job and a bio on how the Oni looks like and how it interacts. I will try to include a picture in every job, but I may not be able to all the time. If anyone has suggestions for an Oni, telegram me with the idea. I would love to hear it.
