[ Prologue ]
Location: South of Omaezaki Port, Shizuoka Prefecture
Time: Unknown
Darkness.
A blurry mess of dirty yellow was scattered around a small cage.
"Seven…"
Dull eyes open to reveal a black abyss.
"Mother… expects so much more from you…"
With a raspy sigh, a figure pushed itself up and managed to get closer to the light at the very end of the small metal contraption. Its bony fingers arching and reaching for the end of the tunnel.
Once it was close enough, it spoke. It's voice barely a whisper.
"H- Hiru-"
CLANK!
The sliver of white vanished before its eyes. Not a second after, a loud banging on the inside boomed.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
"MY NAME IS NOT SEVEN! I- IT'S HI- HIR- HI- …."
The rain came, and with it, an empty icy chill.
After what seemed an eternity of storm and sunshine and storm again - always, in that neverending cycle - whatever it was inside that cage had forgotten its own name.
Location: AAA Warehouse - Near The Omaezaki Lighthouse
Time: 21:49
KABOOM!
"YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!"
tap tap tap tAP TAP TAP TAP
"HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!"
BOOM! BA-BOOM!
A shrill ringing. An angry shout. A million pieces of something pounding on pure metal, wood, and flesh.
DURARARARA! DURARARA- RARARARARA! - RARARA….
The abyss opened once again.
TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP - CLANK!
"UGH!... A- Argh… Se- ven!"
Thick black liquid poured inside the cage like a wasted bottle of *sumi ink its mother used for beautiful calligraphy.
*(sumi = black color)
As if in a manner of remembrance, the weak fingers grasped at the fluid until it was fully covered.
It raised its fist and brought it down to strike the pool of blood. A flash of golden light rushed outwards like a wave until the source of the liquid had burst open to transform what was once human to a spiky shard of pure gold.
The abyss was closing. The figure turned its head to face the opening right in front of it where shades of red twisted and turned and mixed in with the shadows.
"CHIEF! I-Is that who I think it is?!"
A tall man.
Several people.
"Tachibana Hiruko… the Kaneyama-gumi *kumichou's only son…"
*(kumichou = yakuza leader)
The shimmer of yellow brought a metallic scent in the humid air.
"... Who would have thought…"
Darkness came, and the abyss was no more.
Okay, I'm done writing this PROLOGUE!
Tell me what you think :)
Also, this is my first time making an SYOC and my first story, so I would really appreciate any reviews, comments, and advice you can give me. If you have any questions or just need some clarification about something, just PM me.
THERE ARE THREE MAJOR POINTS tho…
1) This story would probably only continue depending on how many character submissions I receive. I'm trying to put an interesting twist to it, and I hope that readers will give it a chance!
2) The QUIRKS are already set for the roles that people want to make a character for. There are 6 roles in total that I need, for now.
3) Lastly, I probably haven't made this clear, but this is a spin on My Hero Academia. Well, it's heavily based on the yakuza world and more on crime and awful things about the human condition. Definitely Teen/Mature Genre...
Thank you for reading!
RULES
1) Please title the PM in this format = [First Name, Last Name - Gender - Age - Role].
2) Just follow the story, so that you know when there are updates.
3) Just to make sure at least one of you read the rules, place this "code" to the end of your entire character submission to get to have an important role in Ebisu's life. Code is = Lucky Seven ;)
4) No Mary or Gary Sue characters.
5) Fill out the entire form, please. Try to be detailed :)
6) SEND THROUGH PM ONLY! This is because I want the readers to at least be surprised by the character's looks, personality, etc. since the Quirks already come with the Roles.
7) ALSO, this is not a first come first serve! I will be posting a deadline for the character submissions based on my real-life schedule.
THE ROLES
1) Ebisu - Chrysopoeia - Emitter - [TAKEN]
= This character is based on the Japanese god of the sea and the fishing industry who later became the god of prosperous businesses, happiness, and wealth.
*Hiruko's quirk is called "Chrysopoeia" which literally means "to make gold", allowing him to turn anything or anyone to pure gold. Its main limitations are the "NEED TO TOUCH" and "ONE AT A TIME" policies.
2) Daikoku - Inspire - Emitter - [AVAILABLE]
= This character was originally a god of war but became a god of happiness and wealth, similar to Ebisu. However, he symbolizes the realization of great ambitions.
*His/Her quirk is called "Inspire" which allows him/her to enhance other people's quirks. This does not grant the user any strength or enhancement and runs at a time limit of 5-7 minutes of raw power per individual. It also needs direct contact.
3) Benten - Prism - Emitter - [AVAILABLE]
= This is the only goddess among the Seven Lucky Gods and is considered to be a representation of multifaceted blessings.
*His/Her quirk is called "Prism" which allows him/her to create a powerful barrier that looks similar to a diamond's multifaceted surface. Of course, even diamonds shatter, so intense and never-ending firepower could result not only in mental strain but scratches and wounds.
4) Fukurokuju - Shifting Age - Transformation - [AVAILABLE]
= This is the white-bearded deity said to provide luck, wealth, and longevity, similar to Jurojin in some ways.
*His/Her quirk is called "Shifting Age" which allows him/her to transform his/her body to look like a certain age while his/her physical attributes do not necessarily go away. Even when the user shifts their age to that of an old individual, they could still run like they were their age all along. However, continuous shifting can cause fatigue and dehydration. Eating food and drinking water regularly is a must.
5) Hotei - Time Frame - Mutant - [AVAILABLE]
= This character is a generous god of happiness and prosperity and is considered one of the lucky gods because he has the power to see the future and judge between good and bad omens.
*His/Her quirk is called "Time Frame" which allows him/her to look into the future of the specific time frame he/she wished to see in longer durations. It could last more than a few hours if he/she wanted to. This is very complex in and of itself, and it doesn't stop there. The user can ONLY see other people's futures BUT not their own.
6) Jurojin - Vitality - Mutant - [AVAILABLE]
= This character is a god of longevity, happiness, and wealth and is accompanied by a deer.
*His/Her quirk is called "Vitality" which allows him/her to heal his/her own wounds by leeching off of other people's "life" energy. This also functions in reverse when the user transfers their own energy into repairing other people's wounds.
7) Bishamon - Grim Reaper - Transformation - [AVAILABLE]
= This character is a lucky god who repels evil and attracts good luck and treasure. One of the Four Heavenly Kings, he is a strong, protective god.
*His/Her quirk is called "Grim Reaper" which allows him/her to mimic that of a skeleton by turning his/her skin into pure bone. This also creates an armor or any sort of weapon made from bone that can be used for combat. Calcium is a necessity.
