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 2024
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.
Since the wonderful members of TDOM enjoy the site enough to play around on it, this thread is to assist with the site's tidying! Functionality is important and we want to make the site functional even if its activity will be minimal at best!
Sergeant Adawulf was not exactly known for being the 'hard cop'. In fact he was pretty well known for being the cop most likely to let you off with a warning, for most minor things, as long as you apologized, and made a real effort to right your wrong.
That being said, the young thug under the Hellhound's knee was probably, arguably, deserving of his current situation. Caught stealing a laptop from a senior citizen, the gifted human had been offered the chance to get away, this one time, if he only apologized to the elderly lady, and returned the laptop, which he had hidden during the pursuit.
Grey was not fond of being told to 'piss off' and he certainly did not enjoy having someone with the power to form highly effectively lubrication, in the form of spit, coating him with the stuff. He actually found it quite irritating. And so, the young male was being detained, with a knee pressed into the back of his neck, dozen witnesses just shaking their heads, and the a beat cop coming over to drag him off for booking.
Locating the laptop was a simple matter, solved easily by taking Hellhound form, and sniffing the trail out. And then, it was back to business as usual for the plainclothes Policeman. Walking the beat, hoping to keep the peace.
Peace. HA. This city was safe enough, but peaceful? Not on your life.
Lorsette had become something of a Hub of cultural exchange over the centuries, the concentration of magical energies that coalesced here made it very attractive to all species, particularly those from Heaven and Hell, but also the Undead, and humans with magical talent. Normal humans, while not rare, were also not represented in a manner that their actual percentage of the worldwide population would dictate as the 'expected outcome', but this actually worked out for the better. It was safer for the humans who lacked the ability to defend themselves from the occasional rogue Lycanthrope, or moronic Vampire who tried to starve themselves.
Fact was, Lorsette, and a handful of other cities around the world, were places where you were just as likely to bump into a Lich on the subway, as you were a regular old human. And for the most part, it was fairly safe.
'Dispatch to any available unit, we have a suspicious person call at four-four-nine-two Decker Street. Please advise on ETA.'
Grey looked at where he was. Decker street was literally just down the way from him, less than 20 meters.
"Dispatch this is Unit Ten-Oh-Four, i am on location."
He made his way to the end of the street and turned the corner.
well i am a time bomb ticking the hours away to blow your world apart

Kasey could truly not careless about the bustling city around her.[break][break]
Lorsette was nothing more than a safe place for her and her powers. There was a reason she was never openly trying to do anything to pay back to the rest of the city. Instead of being a good "human", she was a true criminal. She stole, she fought, and she even did drugs; said drugs even led her to being fucked to the moon all the time. And in the midst of the bustling city, that twenty-two year old was simply minding her own business around her. Her signature beanie was currently at a shop being patched up from her last fight, and so to Kase's distaste, a backwards snapback was set on her head to hide her roots. As much as she attempted to avoid acknowledging it, Kasey was rather well-known for always having some sort of hat on. Maybe it was due to her shitty, faded roots, or maybe the pure fact it had become a habit after years of continuing it. Either way, it didn't matter to the punk.[break][break]
Adjusting the jacket hung around her shoulders, the bluenette took a good look at the area around her. The only reason she agreed to leave the house today was to meet up with her dumb ass dealer, but even with their deal of meeting up, her gaze saw no sight of the scrawny loser. With a huff and a narrow of her piercing eyes, a small puff of cold air left her mouth as small bouts of anger boiled within her. Kasey had grown so used to it that it took the pedestrians surrounding her making a remark about how a chill had overcome them for the twenty-two year old to notice. Flinching, she cupped her hand over her mouth and ducted into a nearby alley, hoping to "God" that no one noticed.[break][break]
Then again, it wasn't like she was that noticeable. But, it was essential for her to be careful. Especially with her reputation slowly climbing.[break][break]
Leaning her back against the brick wall, Kasey took another look at her surroundings, and specifically at the random alley. It was thinner and sketchier than most in Lorsette, with no beggars or druggies to be seen. But, as her gaze flickered to where she came from, Kasey's eyes fell upon a guy with a phone in his hand. Before the punk could even say anything, he was off, pushing through the crowd. With a furrowing brow, Kasey pushed off against the brick wall and set forward to follow him.[break][break]
The moment she left the alley though, she crashed into another person. "Shit, sorry..." She quickly muttered under her breath while trying to understand where the guy went.
Grei saw the fleeing figure, and was about to turn to pursue when he was impacted suddenly by a body that felt...heavier...than her size would indicate. It wasnt a physical density he felt, and it pause before reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder.
"Scuse me miss? Could i just ask you a few questions?"
He pulled his Badge from his pocket with the hand he was reaching with.
"You aren't in trouble but we received a suspicious person report for this area, and i just want to make sure you arent in any danger."
His tone was polite, even friendly, but his eyes had a bit of hardness to them.
