+/~*The Legend of Moriku Castle*~+ (Horror RP)

[Kyumika]

January 1st, 2008: Osaka, Japan:

There was once a beautiful castle in the moist and green forests of Japan. A very rich and powerful family (known as the Moriku Family) once lived there, although they were not royal. Many people came in and out of the castle on business and to help out around the castle. Suddenly, on a dark, snowy, day; the screams of frightened people echoed through the icy forest. No one knew what had happened, but everyone the government sent to find the missing people who never returned from the castle, never returned as well. After sending numerous groups of search parties, the government eventually gave up, forgot about the castle and moved on. Over the years, however, some people had not forgotten about the mysterious castle and went in search of it to do research for books and articles in magazines. Of course, the people who went in search of the castle either found it and never returned, or they could not find it at all and gave up. The only survivor who had gone into the castle and came out, alive, but badly injured, was too horrified to say anything, except that the last thing they heard was the laugh of a woman that echoed throughout the forest...

Plot:
A group of teenagers are planning on trying to find Moriku castle to do research on it for school or work, or maybe just out of curiosity. Little do they know the risk of going into the castle where Ghosts begin to prove their existence. Other people who enter the castle are either doing the same thing or get lost in the forest and end up there in the castle. The only problem with entering the castle is once you enter...there is no exit.

Ghosts!

These are the five needed Ghosts! They are the most powerful Ghosts in the role play! They are in order from most powerful to least powerful! GHOSTS WILL NOT ATTACK EACH OTHER UNLESS IT'S GOOD VS. EVIL!

The 5 needed Ghosts (the top two usually do not appear much in the role play):

Kaede- Unavailable
Ameretat- Unavailable
Lei- Unavailable
Ghost 4- Unavailable
Kyuoko- Unavailable

Also, what do the humans have to defend themselves? Well there are the occasional exorcists (but not everyone can be one) and then there are SOME medical people (hardly any, it'll be more fun for the ghost characters if the humans get a little bit injured...or some killed >D). Also, there is a special camera called the Camera Obscura (from the game Fatal Frame which, when someone takes a picture of a ghost, perfoms an exorcism on the ghost. However, there is only ONE CAMERA OBSCURA that the characters find in the castle and SHARE with each other.

One more thing...all the evil ghosts work for Kaede. They will defend her and obey her. She is their master because she is the most powerful of the ghosts and they fear her, so they want to be in her favor.

The Camera Obscura

Kaede and other ghosts are going to drop the "Camera Obscura" (from Fatal Frame) for characters to find. However characters may have to share itright now because there will only be one Camera Obscura (for now, I'll add more later). What does it do? Well when you take a picture of a ghost, it will perform an exorcism on them. However, you will have to take a picture of each ghost more than once before it dies. Unless it is a weak spirit (not really a ghost) then it can die the first time it gets a picture taken. However it could also be a picture of something (like an object) and come up later when you develope the film to give you clues on how to get out of the castle (however the clues will all take some time to solve, so they won't be easy or obvious). Most of the characters should coincidentally run into each other soon so they can travel through the castle together (this will get you all involved too).

Characters

Kyumika

Name: Kaede Moriku
Good/Evil: EVIL!!! (The most powerful of the Ghosts)
Age: Looks to be 18 years old.
History: Kaede was the youngest daughter of the castle that once stood in the forest. She eventually fell in love with a young man who worked as a chef in the castle. They planned to get married but when they asked the head of the house (Kaede's father) if they could be married, he became very angry saying that Kaede could never marry a poor chef. They were not suited for each other. Kaede and the young man ignored her father and married each other anyway with the help of Kaede's older sister, Ameretat, whom she was very close with. Kaede's father soon found out and eventually had Kaede's lover killed. When Kaede found out, she was devastated and killed herself. Instead of ascending into the heavens, her spirit, in a rage, slaughtered each and every person in the castle, including her family. The only survivor was Ameretat who helped Kaede and eventually killed herself to be with her older sister.
Description:

Name: Seiren Nakamura
Good/Evil: Good
Age: 17
History: Born and raised in Kyoto, Japan. She is full Japanese and has a strong relationship with her ancestors. When she was about 14 years old, her mother divorced her father and got remarried to another man whom she very much disliked. It was obvious that her new "father" disliked her as well because of her religious beliefs that there were spirits in the world. For example, the spirit of the wind, earth, water, fire, death, and the strongest of the six is life. She also believed in good and evil spirits. She hated going home and after a while of putting up with it, she couldn't stand her new family and especially her father. Her mother completely changed when she remarried to this man, which very much upset her. After a fight with her parents, she ran away into the forest and eventually came upon a mansion that looked to be very old...and spooky. She could feel that place crawling with spirits and became curious enough that she entered the mansion, alone.

Soon after, her younger sister, Kaede, fell in love with a young chef who worked in the castle where she lived. Their father, would not let them be married, so Kaede came to Ameretat who then married them. After Kaede's lover was murdered by their father, Kaede commited suicide and started killing every living being in the castle. Ameretat, still upset about the death of Torrin and Kaede, killed the man to whom she was betrothed in revenge. In an uncontrollable rage, she then aided her younger sister's ghost in killing every living soul within or without the castle. Then, racked with remorse for her crimes and wanting to be with her sister and her true love, she killed herself, and joined Kaede and Torrin in everlasting torture.
