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. Feel free to message the staff if you need help, they can be found here or in the site Discord and will gladly answer questions alongside calm concerns. If you have any suggestions we would love to hear them; guests may use the support board as a suggestion area as well. Should you decide to join, may I say welcome to the site and we all hope you enjoy your time here.
Yours Truely,
The Staff
season
Summer 2022
Heat has broken through into a glorious summer. The snow has entirely dried through the spring, leaving to the brilliance of the warmer months. Terror activity has risen as people are brought out of their homes, leaving the TRS in a position of consistent work. Each are attempting to maintain victory in the endless struggle for power.
With April, an activity check has arrived for members to do! Please post on the AC and tag all your accounts, including WIPs and OOC accounts. Failure to post on this AC will result in your accounts being marked inactive or deleted. Please note, due to a late start, the due date for this check has been adjusted for one time and one time only.
It’s the year 2022 and a lot has changed since the days of Harry Potter. Technology has arrived in the magical world and with it jobs that had never been heard of before are booming. The Weasley family has pulled off a Cinderella rags to riches story and developed magical vehicles for those who don’t want to, or can’t, apparate, don’t like Floo Powder or the environmental waste of portkeys. Hogwarts is also now offering a three year University for a mix of classroom and field work in highly specialized fields such as Aurors, Hitwizards, St. Mungo’s Healers, and Hogwarts nurses and doctors to prepare them for the high stress and difficult careers they’ve chosen.
With the good comes the bad, or so it goes. On 1st September 2021 multiple cities around the world where muggle and magical people have lived in harmony were targeted in brutal murders that were both live streamed and played over TV stations simultaneously, murders that were blatantly magical, and on 1st January 2022 magical and muggle officials were murdered live including the retired former Minister for Magic. There have also been other attacks taking place throughout the magical world over the last few months. The group, who call themselves The Enlightened, have erased a lifetime of work at hiding magic and made muggles lapse into fear. Chaos is spreading as everyone asks the questions. Who is among the Enlightened? Is it the guy in the office next to you? Your best friend? Is it you? Or are you seeking to catch the wrongdoers? Or are you simply trying to stay alive and safe?
A wise old man once said happiness can be found even in the darkest of times if only one remembers to turn on the light. With that I only say: Lumos.

[attr="class","topbar"]
[attr="class","generalimage"]
[attr="class","name"]The Blane Family
[attr="class","overallblurb"]The Blane family is very big, so this wanted ad is just a way to keep everyone in one place. Feel free to look at their family tree for more information. Because of the size of the family we'd prefer players that intend to be active so no one slips through the cracks. Having a discord is required since we have a big discord chat for everyone involved in the family plot to help keep track of things. [break][break] There are some fancy tabs up there for you to riffle through, but I'll add a brief table of contents here too. [break][break]OG Siblings[break][break]Adonai's Kids
[attr="class","overallblurb"]This generation of the Blane family consists of 10 siblings. This ad was originally for Adonai Blane so message Chibi Magician here or one discord if you're interested in nabbing any of them. Or respond here and tag chibi.[break][break] Because they're all basically open I'm combining them into one ad. The siblings including which ones are open are listed bellow in order of age. After that I'll give you a few more details. [break][break]
The siblings were born during the War of Traitors. Their parents were heavy supporters of the Akari army and they raised their children to be soldiers for the army. After the war, their paths are up to you. [break][break]The family was a mix of races so they can be any species as long as they're not hell species. They have to have been born with green hair and they have to be taller than Nitzan (5'4"). I listed some suggested face claims below. If you want help finding images for any of them feel free to reach out to Chibi or me. [break][break]
[break][break] The names for these characters are up to your choosing along with their personalities as long as they are good people. They should have a relatively good relationship with their parents, siblings, and most of their other family members. That being said, sibling quarreling is thoroughly welcomed! It's more an 'at the end of the day I still love you' situation.[break][break] These children are conceived with the assistance of surrogates so their species are mostly open, but Adonai is a merperson and Nitzan is an oni if you want to lean that way. All of their face claims are Fire Emblem related and non-negotiable, but Chibi can make trays for you if you need them. I also linked some images for them because I'm eternally bored and love Fire Emblem face claims. [break][break]
The kids cannot join the TRS until they're at least 18. Adonai's past is littered with war and he makes a point of keeping it out of the limelight. Generally, the family is a healthy environment for all the kiddos. The final requirement is that Nitzan has to be the shorted person in the family so all the kids have to be taller than 5'4".
[attr="class","name"]The Oldest
[attr="class","characterblurblefttop"]This character is 28 years old and Female or NB. She is Nitzan's daughter through a surrogate, so please make sure any images you use are red headed to match their father. He is an Oni but because of their mother's unknown identity they can be any species. As mentioned before, name and personality are up to you. [break][break]Her faceclaim is Hinoka from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for her that you are by no means required to use.
[attr="class","characterimagehinoka"]

[attr="class","name"]The Second
[attr="class","characterblurbrighttop"]This character is 26 years old and Female or NB. She is Nitzan's daughter through a surrogate, so please make sure any images you use are red headed to match their father. He is an Oni but because of their mother's unknown identity they can be any species. As mentioned before, name and personality are up to you. [break][break]Her faceclaim is Severa from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for her that you are by no means required to use.
[attr="class","characterimagesevera"]
[attr="class","padding"]
[attr="class","name"]The Third
[attr="class","characterblurblefttop"]This character is 25 years old and Female or NB. She is Adonai's daughter through a surrogate. He is a merman but because of their mother's unknown identity they can be any species. As mentioned before, name and personality are up to you. [break][break]Her faceclaim is Sothis from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for her that you are by no means required to use.
[attr="class","characterimagesothis"]
[attr="class","padding"]
[attr="class","name"]Second Youngest
[attr="class","characterblurbrightanna"]This character is 16 years old and Female or NB. She is Nitzan's daughter through a surrogate, so please make sure any images you use are red headed to match their father. He is an Oni but because of their mother's unknown identity they can be any species. As mentioned before, name and personality are up to you. Since she is 16 she will be living at home and attending public school unless there are outlying reasons you ran by Chibi. [break][break]Her faceclaim is Anna from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for her that you are by no means required to use. TAKEN BY LEESEE
[attr="class","overallblurb"]Jess' kids were all born in London. Their father was an ex-AP soldier and when he died 4 years ago she moved her family to Lorsette so she could raise them near her siblings. Their father was a mix of hell species and Jess is a mix of heaven and earth species, so they can be any species that's not undead. The names for these characters are also up to you. Take a look at Jessica Blane 's bio for more information that's not listed here. If you're interested in taking one of them message Leesee either on this site or through discord at leesee#1055.
[attr="class","name"]The Oldest
[attr="class","characterblurbleftukyo"]Jess' oldest son is somewhere between 28 and 30. When she moved to Canada, he decided to stay in London for a while longer. Whether that was because of some sort of conflict with Jess or something/someone keeping him in London is up to you. He does need to come back to Canada when you make him, obviously. I don't have any requirements for his personality, but I'd prefer for him to be pretty independent. [break][break]His faceclaim is Ukyo from Amnesia. Here's some images I've gathered for him that you by no means have to use.
[attr="class","characterimageukyo"]
[attr="class","paddingUkyo"]
[attr="class","name"]The Second
[attr="class","characterblurbrighttop"]
Jess' second son is somewhere between 20 and 25. He is the most open of Jess' kids which means most of his personality is up to you. The only thing that matters is that he spends time with his family and cares about his siblings. [break][break]His faceclaim is Alm from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for him that you by no means have to use.
[attr="class","characterimagealm"]
[attr="class","padding"]
[attr="class","name"]Triplet 1
[attr="class","characterblurblefttop"]The triplets are somewhere between 14 and 17 years old. Together they are a maddening force of chaos and mayhem, of which the girl is the ringleader. She is smart and cunning, but that doesn't mean she has to apply it in classes. The rest is up to you![break][break]Her faceclaim is Nino from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for her that you by no means have to use.
[attr="class","characterimagenino"]
[attr="class","padding"]
[attr="class","name"]Triplet 2
[attr="class","characterblurbrighttop"]
The triplets are somewhere between 14 and 17 years old. He and his brother are identical twins. I picture twin 2 as an energetic kid that likes making friends and being active, but that's up to you. The only real requirement is that he's got a penchant for mischief. [break][break]His faceclaim is Lugh from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for him that you by no means have to use.
[attr="class","characterimagelugh"]
[attr="class","padding"]
[attr="class","name"]Triplet 3
[attr="class","characterblurblefttop"]The triplets are somewhere between 14 and 17 years old. He and his brother are identical twins. I imagine that this third twin is more reluctant to participate in his siblings antics, but I picture the triplets as spending lots of time together so he's bound to get drawn in. The reasons behind his reservations are up to you. [break][break]His faceclaim is Raigh from Fire Emblem. Here's some images I've gathered for him that you by no means have to use.
AAAAHHHH THAT'D BE ADORABLE!!! I believe I mentioned that Alex is particularly hesitant to get into any sort of relationship. Luka seems to have the persistence that would be required, but also Alex is very skittish so being quick to anger would be a no go. Not that Luka seems like he'd get angry easily based on his personality.
All the friends for Alex! He needs them. Badly. Alex tends to stick to individual sports like tennis or running because having a team rely on him is terrifying. With all the energy I imagine Alex would get annoyed but he wouldn't snap or anything bc conflict, more like "AVOID AVOID AVOID." Eventually I'm sure he'd grow on him though.
With Amy he can try to keep her at arms distance all he wants; she won't notice. She hasn't quite developed the ability to pick up on context clues, either, so I could totally see her trying to pick pocket some important diplomat or something. She did get involved in the mafia in the first place by trying to pickpocket one of their guys. Whether she's interracted with him before or not is up to you, perhaps in passing delivering messages or what not? To end up in his charge maybe she was given a job that unknowingly sent her into some sort of mafia conflict and Warren was the one disposable to get her out of the way?
All the teachers! Anele will definitely be overly nice bc that's the type of person he is. I feel like Anele would make an effort to get to know all of his coworkers, so he's probably at least introduced himself to Wolf before. Maybe some other teachers or a student could be picking on Wolf and Anele could step in and stop it.
FAMILY!!! Also ZIYA!!! She definitely doesn't pay attention in class. In fact she currently has a text thread with Adonai where she accidentally messaged him from class. Her grades aren't terrible, she at least passes all her classes. The only ones she's good at are foreign language and literature, I think. Other than those two a grade report coming back would be a major source of stress.
I do also love the idea of them cooking together although it's funny you assume she has a favorite meal. Food is food by her definition. What if we combined the ideas? Like Ziya had to bring back her report card with a signature and during the cooking she's like "So dad! You're the nicer one! Bout these grades" XD
Penny doesn't attend regular school, but she can be found around the school area from time to time and I could imagine her just dropping by the school wanting to see what they're learning like "Eh, I'll blend in it's fine."
I love the idea of Penny interracting with others her age because she'd have NO IDEA what to do with them. She had talked to very few other teens and doesn't fully understand their immaturity. She also does not pick up on subtext very well so I could imagine her not realizing Aleksei just wants to be friends.
The number one way to befriend Haley - coffee. Or other gifts. She tries to get along with all of her coworkers. It could be fun if they're usually have common shifts and develop a friendship through that.
Wanted ads! About time, right~ If you're interested in taking any of these please either DM me on this account or message me on discord at Leesee#8018.
[attr="class","cbtoinfo"]Someone has to keep Mikaela alive, right? Alright! So Mikaela and Libby may be twins, but they've only really known each other for 6 years. When they were born, their mom took Libby to Canada and Mikaela was left behind in Italy with their dad. Since Mikaela arrived in Canada they've probably tried to reconnect and I imagine from Mikaela's point of view they're sort of friends, but Mik is a tsundere so of course it can't be that simple. Libby is a kind, caring person and I could picture her being a healer, but it's up to you. Her face claim must be Ereshkigal from Fate/Grand Order. Learn more in Mikaela's Application
[attr="class","cbtoinfo"]So a lot about Adrian is going to be up to the taker, but here's the basics. He's Lexie's fiance and they've been engaged since Lexie was 11. He probably comes from a well off family. They were supposed to get married when Lexie turned 18, but they both agreed to put it off for the time being. I'd imagine he'd pretty dedicated to his work in the TRS. The faceclaim is open to the taker, but if you want a few ideas feel free to ask. Learn more in Lexie's Application.
[attr="class","cbtoinfo"]Illy's oldest child! When she was young she was pretty spoiled by both of her parents. When she was 8, her father died, and shortly after her two younger siblings, Katya and Elliot, were born. I imagine she's currently going through a moody teen phase and she has a fair amount of sass that Illy has no patience for. Mostly it's open to you, though. The species can be either Vampire or Shifter. Her face claim must be Shirayuki from Akagami no Shirayuki-hime. Learn more in Ilona's Application.
[attr="class","cbtoinfo"]Aina is the daughter of another prominent member in Mikaela's dad's gang, and they were practically raised together. Since then, things have changed. Mikaela came to Canada to get away from that life while Aina stayed behind, and this created a rift between them. If someone take Aina she'll probably be coming to Canada to cause some sort of chaos for Mik, but the details are up to you. Her face claim must be Morgiana from Magi: the labyrinth of magic.
