Welcome to The Duality of Man, an original animanga role-play that features numerous supernatural creatures. Unfortunately, these various species have distanced themselves because of the war that occurred thousands of years ago, plaguing some with eyes that only see their dualism. While others meddle themself with their differences, two groups fight, each attempting to eliminate the other in for their definition of worldly peace. These two groups of the Terror Response Syndicate (TRS) and the Assembly of Phantoms (AP). With individuals fighting merely over their differences, it brings uncertainty to the outcome of this war.
We happily accept all role-players as long as they obey the rules and are capable of meeting our word count of 50. This does include those who are unfamiliar with this style of role-playing. The staff of The Duality of Man are willing to happily help those who are new to the role-playing world so they feel comfortable on site.

Atticus nodded his head in reply back to Russel. "Yes, it would take less time completing things if I didn't have to pause for eating or sleeping." He confirmed, though he wasn't sure if he favored being alive or dead more. Of course being alive meant he had a chance to die, now if he were to die it would be lights out for him. His power activated without permission and he had touched his forehead with his hand as if that would assist with making it stop, of course it didn't, but his hand remained on his forehead anyway. He then asked what job Russel had, nodding his head as he listened to him speak, aware of what TRS was. "I see." He answered, unsure on what else to say on the subject. The door opened and he found himself listening as footsteps had walked inside. Slowly he rose from his seat, "It was a pleasure speaking with you." He answered before adding, "I hope we can chat again sometime." He would then turn away from Russel before heading towards the door panning on going outside.
left alone, trapped in uncertainty. can anyone love me? anybody at all? or am I destined to be alone?

Their conversation was intriguing, impart because of the possibilities of the blue-haired man’s identity. Curious, brown eyes locked on his mysterious companion. These engaging conversations were rare for Russel because of his lack of social willingness. People who managed to interact with him and earn fixation were a fortunate few who managed to sufficiently pique his interesting, prompting him to stay. The bespectacled man quietly reached up, adjusting the glasses stationed on his face. He settled in his seat, listening to the mysterious man.
Being allow to investigate the emotions and thoughts of an undead species intrigued Russel. Naturally, the brunette wanted to avoid the chilling grasp of death. The confirmation prompted a soft smile to form on the forensic's expression. Hesitance could fester with releasing personal details, however, Russel could always enjoy the calmness of asking and answering questions. While cynicism manifested an over-protective guard, the bespectacled man's willingness to learn and curiosities about the man's identity managed to conquer.
"Interesting," Russel mused.
The pained expression on Atticus' face was worrying, Russel watching him carefully. Only moments later did the blue-haired man stood from his seat, deciding he would leave. The brunette observed him, standing to somewhat follow. Quickly, Russel drank the remainder of his bitter beverage.
"Wait. Can I get your name... please?" Russel asked, trying a friendly smile. "You can have mine. I'm Russel."
He planned on leaving after Atticus, however, he wanted the man's name first. The bespectacled man stood nearby, waiting to receive a name from the man he thought was possibly Amon.
Atticus listened to Russel's question as he made his way towards the door. It wasn't like he had meant to be rude but he just couldn't bring himself to trust anybody either. "It is nice to meet you Russel." He answered in return before reaching out to open the door. Should I give him my name? My parents died, keeping me safe... I don't want to be found. He thought to himself before giving a small sad smile. "It isn't safe for me to give my name. Good day." He whispered before opening the door and slipping outside. It seemed to him that he had perfect timing, since the weather wasn't so bad right now. Though there was a chance Russel planned on trying to get his name, he found himself walking away quickly as means of escaping.

Patiently, Russel waited, following behind the mysterious blue-haired man. The forensic was curious and genuinely desired more information about the enigmatic male he became acquainted with. There were few people who managed to piqued the brunette's interests and this man managed. Therefore, Russel felt an exchange of names was required to assure they could have another conversation. There was subtle excitement in the bespectacled man's mind at the notion of perhaps having a chance at receiving a positive relationship.
It was difficult to thoroughly know whether the situation would work out. The brunette's cynical thoughts insisting on the possibility of finding someone only motivated by their goals. Alas, intrigue kept Russel determined to try and form a relationship with the mysterious, blindfolded man. Unfortunately, the words used to respond to him were unexpected and something which Russel did not expect. The man claimed giving his name out was dangerous, therefore, Russel would never learn the blue-haired man's name.
"I... I see," he said quietly, a little disappointed.
Those hurt feelings which scarred Russel's heart whispered in his ears, reminding him of the numerous times he was hurt. Of course this man did not desire to exchange names. The stranger's steps were quick as he retreated, the bespectacled man's eyes watching him leave. Only moments later did Russel grab the remaining items from the table and exited the shop. He believed he should have never left home today...
