Sign Up Saiyuki: The Founding of Heaven and Earth {M-VLS}

[lil kitsune boy]

Ok, this is the sign up thread.

This is a Saiyuki game, for those of you who don't know what it is, it's(yet another) retalling of the story, Journey to the West or The Monkey King. Since I don't feel like writing more now, if you'd like more information, PM me or look it up, whichever you find is easier.

Ok, a few rules(mostly thing I just don't like, also known as proper gaming ettiquette):
1)If you want to include someone else in your post, make sure it's something their character would do(if this is too complicated, ask 'em before you post)

2)Don't try to kill off other PC's(player characters, bad guys are, of course, ok)

3)NO power gamers. There is a limit to your power, deal. All the character's are about the same power level, it's just that they're powerful in different ways.

4)I've noticed that people start games on here and then just let the players go, I don't run games that way. You might not like that. If not, don't sign up. If you want to do something major(i don't care if you succeed in looking up porn on the internet, but if you wanna hack into langley and steal government files, that's a bit different), you're gonna have to check with me first.

5)I'll allow it. I allow a lot of things in my games, as long as they're plausible. Basically, this means that, while I might seem a little mean with the rules and all, if you give me a good reason, I'll overlook something, or let you get away with doing something you usually wouldn't be able to.

(just to get myself out from under some of those angry glares, the only reason I have rules #4 and #5 is to avoid #3, power gamers piss me off to no end)

6)Have fun, it's just a game. Hence rules #1 and #2, that's to keep everyone having fun without any fighting in the teams.(The idea is that, at first, the two teams are working against each other, so they might fight)

7)Sign ups. Here's how this is gonna work. You have to PM me with your character, after I send you a PM back saying that you've been accepted to the game, you can post your character so everyone knows what they're in for. Then we'll get started on the game.

That's the rules. Aside from that, have fun.

Profile : He was nicknamed ?Kouryu the River Drifter? by fellow disciples in the Kinzan Temple where he grew up. Komyo Sanzo was like a father to him as he taught him everything there is to know. When he was killed by demons his title was passed on to Kouryu and his name changed to Toua Genjo Sanzo Houshi. He possesses the Evil Sutra he can use to exterminate demons quickly and to retrieve his late master?s sutra. During the time when Togenkyo?s demons are going maniacal, he is being ordered by the Sanbutusin (Three Buddhas) to journey to the West along with three demons to find out something about Gyumao?s revival and hinder it.

Memorable Quote: ?Yare yare desu ne (Oh dear).?
Profile: He started out as a silent boy named Cho Gono who used to be feared by the children in the orphanage. As he grew up he fell in love with a woman named Kanan (in English version, Kanna) and tried his best for them to live together. However she was raped and kidnapped by the 100-Eye Demon, so he went to their tower and exterminated all 1000 of them?which made him a demon. But because of her being pregnant from the demon, she killed herself in front of him. He was taken care of by Gojyo later on and met Sanzo and Goku who arrested him to the Three Buddhas for murdering the demons. Instead of being executed, he was said to live a new life and changed his name to ?Cho Hakkai?, and since then he traveled with the other three to the West. His role of a peacemaker made him Sanzo?s adviser (but he doesn?t usually listen to him), Gojyo?s best pal and Goku?s big brother.

Memorable Quote: ?Bakazaru (Stupid monkey)!?
Profile: Gojyo comes from a taboo intercourse between a human and a demon, which is said to bring misfortune. The proof of his being half-youkai half-human is his red hair and eyes. He was taken care of by his demon stepmother and her son Jien?the stepbrother of Gojyo since they have the same father. Because he resembles her husband and a strange woman, she attacks him at times until it grew serious and Jien had to kill her himself and ran away. As he grew up he gets by life through gambling and women often flock to him. He found Gono (who changed into Hakkai) and lived together in his apartment 3 years before they were summoned to prevent Gyumao?s revival with Goku and Sanzo.

Memorable Quote: ?Haraheta (I?m hungry)!? and ?Ero kappa (You perverted water monster) / redroach!?
Profile: Goku is born from a rock that contains the spirit of the world for centuries, making him rich with earth?s aura. He was imprisoned in a dark cave made of rock on top of Mt. Gogyo due to a crime he committed in an early age, and his years were frozen there. He stayed there for more than 500 years until Sanzo freed him and let him stay in the temple where he causes trouble to the dismay of the monks. He follows the highest-ranked monk anywhere and was one of the selected youkai by Sanbutusin to accompany Sanzo to his journey to the west.

He has no choice but to obey her and do all the dirty work for her stepmother that includes taking away Sanzo?s Sutra for Gyuuma Ou?s revival. Has a half-sister Ririn whom he cares about very much.

She is entrusted by Kougaiji to take care of Ririn, his half-sister. She is very royal to Kougaiji. Although she knows that their enemies were Sanzo and his company, she is still kind to them ESPECIALLY Hakkai. In fact too kind?

Ok, that?s what I got for established characters. You are, of course, welcomed and encouraged, to make up your own character. Any character?s in the series that are not here are left out only because I couldn?t find anything on them. If you would like to play one of them, you?ll have to find the information, since apparently I can?t, but you?re definitely welcome to play them.
