DISCLAIMERS
Yes this role play takes a lot of inspiration from RWBY and SOL EATER.
Yes some of the ideas used for this rp were formerly intended to be part of new genesis. However those ideas were mine and I will use them as I see fit.
While the role play takes place on planet earth, It is not the same earth we live on. Locations and geography may very.
The Story
Hundreds of years ago, In a solar system thousands of light years away from our own. Two beings of great power fought in a battle that resulted in the death of an entire solar system. The unrivaled magic of these two titans caused a disturbance in the cosmos that awakened timeless primordial creature. For eons the creature had slept, laying dormant in an eternal slumber. But it was awakened by the powerful magic of the two clashing titans. awakened, but not fully restored.
The creature was hungry, starved. It needed sustenance, something, anything to keep it awake, to keep it from starving to death. The creature looked and looked, but there was nothing left. The titans had destroyed EVERYTHING in their battle. The creature was about to give up hope, that was until he found... us.
The creature managed to find our home, the planet Earth simply by chance. A world like this would hardly even be a snack for the creature. However, it had a plan. The creature split off several billion smaller beings from itself and set them free in our world. This way he could sleep while he gathered energy from our world. These creatures came in all different shapes and sizes, but they all had one common goal. Extracting the life force from anything that moved. Humans, ferens, solaras' even wild beasts were all fare game for these creatures.
The creatures were eventually dubbed Kishins by the earthlings. The kishins quickly took the earth by storm. cities fell over night and every civilization was forced fend them off. Everyone retreated their armies back to the homeland to fend off invading kishins. The next twenty years were spent fending off the kishin attacks and building walls around each of the civilizations to keep them out. A truce was made between all of the worlds leaders. This way no one would have to worry about a war breaking out until the kishin threat had been put down perminantly
As time went on, the earthlings made more and more advances in anti Kishin weaponry. The military started training highly skilled hunters and huntresses to fight these kishins. The hunters were the best of the best, Kishin killing experts. Their strength and skill were unmatched by anyone. A single hunter or huntress was as mighty as a whole squad of special ops soldiers and twice as deadly. But this wasn't enough.
Even with the hunters and huntresses protecting the earthling, the kishin's numbers were just to great. The earthlings needed a way to level the playing field. The civilizations all came together and built a massive university. A school for future hunters and huntresses. Officially dubbed Balefire Academy by the world leaders, it would serve as the training ground for new and upcoming hunters. No longer would their teachings, their training be restricted only to those on the military.
Talented youths from around the world gathered at the academy, filled with hopes and dreams of becoming the next hunter or huntress...
It's been 300 years since the school was first formed. Now days there are lots of hunters and huntresses are running about. Some work as mercenaries, some work in the military, other work for questionable people doing questionable work. But now it's your turn. for one reason or another you've come to Balefire to learn how to slay kishins. Maybe you feel the need to protect your loved ones. Maybe you seek revenge, maybe your sense of responsibility called you to duty. Or maybe your just a psychopath looking to gain power. Whatever the case, welcome to Balefire!
