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!
[attr="class","adtempb"] Fame Claim where does your infamy take you
[attr="class","adinfor"]
Please make sure to have the [ nospaces ] tag in your fame claim post! This is meant to help people with characters who have some infamy be known around Lorsette and act as a quick reference for people who wish to have their characters widely known and the information that is known. Think of this as what people would find out if they googled your character. Only famous characters need to fill this out and you can express their fame on a 1-5 scaling, 1 being lesser-known and 5 being extremely well-known. Special thanks to Zac for making the claim template!

Greetings members! We have worked on getting some new updates for you, from new species to some minor style changes, everything will be covered in this. With everything done, we hope you enjoy the new additions to the site and come to enjoy them fully! I will mention, we are still working on some things to get formulated and received a confirmed method, such as the anniversary rewards for members when they reach a year on the site. [break][break] There are three new species available for member playing, one being long-awaited by staff as an addition to give more open variety for members to enjoy. Both the species are custom-made creatures in hopes of fulfilling some different abilities combination for members to try out! There are no updates to present species at this moment! [break][break] Fame Claim: A portion of this update does similarly consist of a new claim we have been intrigued in adding. For people who have characters with infamy levels, we decided to add a fame claim to operate as a nexus for famous characters. We hope this will allow people to know who can be widely known and what can be known about them as well as rake in fans who are played characters! Special thanks to Zac for making the fame claim template for us! [break][break] Skin Changes: Thanks to Zac once again, the skin will be undergoing some minor changes. After years of the same images, TDOM is being spruced up and hooked up with some new images! This will be happening right after the posting of the updates.

[attr="class","adtemp"]
[attr="class","adtempb"] NEW SPECIES LET US RISE!
[attr="class","adinfor"]
As per usual, we have managed to create some more species in order to provide a variety of different options. From an alternate to gifted to custom made species only available on TDOM.
[attr="class","adspecies"]
[attr="class","adspecie"]
[attr="class","adspeci"]
[attr="class","adspec"]deviants
[attr="class","adspe"]
[attr="class","adsp"] A sub-race of gifted, deviants are known for having a single, defining difference in comparison to gifted. These creatures are renowned for their appearance, of which can vary immensely. Deviants, similar to boogeymen, can exhibit traits such as horns, wings and various other features that can lead to them appearing inhuman. Unlike gifted, many have come to fear deviants because of their outlandish appearances. Similar to their gifted counterparts, deviants have a variety of abilities and operate under the ruling of at most 3 gifts, two of which can be powerful or strong (manipulations, healing, rapid regeneration) and one of which can be considered weaker (night vision, omnilinguistics, enhanced eyesight). However, deviants have a fourth ability, specifically a glamour that can hide their extraordinary traits. [break][break] Similar to gifted, each of a deviant’s abilities should have weaknesses that balance them. This makes their powers various and their weaknesses equally various. Additionally, certain deviants because of the manner of their appearance have required to heft the burden of slots being taken in favour of self-sustenance for their assured survival. They also do not have the durability or bodily strength to survive harsh attacks, unless their abilities accommodate for those weaknesses. Their strengths and weaknesses heavily depend on what they have received in the roulette of genes. [break][break] As previously stated, deviants are renown for their differing traits. However, the main trait is they do appear at least somewhat human, having a few notable humane traits. When in glamour, a deviant is impossible to spot for they will appear as the most human version of their regular form.
[attr="class","adspecies"]
[attr="class","adspecie"]
[attr="class","adspeci"]
[attr="class","adspec"]electricytes
[attr="class","adspe"]
[attr="class","adsp"] A group of creatures thoroughly discovered when technology became more readily available to the public. Electricytes are renowned for their association with electronics and machines and are capable of generating power to operate machines without batteries if their abilities are trained properly. Their culture is similar to humans due to years of allegedly being other species. Their abilities consist of: electricity manipulation, technopathy, force field generation, enhanced speed, enhanced memory (natural), electricity immunity (natural). [break][break] These creatures have a strong connection to electricity to points where they somewhat feed off it for additional energy. Possessing too little electricity can lead to symptoms of exhaustion meanwhile having too much can lead to sensations of being overcharged. When electricytes are overcharged, this can lead to sickness or potentially dangerous discharges that can lead to explosions when attempting to meddle with technology and damages to the electricyte. Electricytes can face damages to their muscles and bodies from the sudden discharge which can cause seizing of the bottle. If extremely overcharged, death can be a risk factor, thus they are required to maintain their intake. [break][break] There are few visible traits carried by electricytes to imply what they are. For the most part these creatures appear human, however, their eyes if stared deep into can exhibit small lightning bolts moving inside the pupil. These creatures are capable of ceasing the ageing process.
[attr="class","adspecies"]
[attr="class","adspecie"]
[attr="class","adspeci"]
[attr="class","adspec"]nocturi
[attr="class","adspe"]
[attr="class","adsp"] Considered a gift from Heaven, nocturi are known as guides of the night tasked with bringing people home with light while plunging the malicious into darkness. Oftentimes, these creatures lead a nocturnal life, feeling most at home under the embrace of a night sky. Protectors and guides of the night and walkers of dreams, nocturi are revered by many both inside and outside of heaven. The abilities of these creatures consist of: darkness manipulation, light manipulation, night vision (natural), dream walking, healing factor (beneath the night sky/natural), cold resistance (natural) and force field creation. [break][break] Beneath the sun, nocturi can be considerably weaker. Excessive exposure to light can cause them to start feeling exhausted and potentially sick if they spend too much time in it. Thus, nocturi must monitor their exposure to sunlight and assure they do not spend too much time in it. Additionally, these creatures tend to be uncomfortable around immense light as it can stimulate the sun exposure of their body, however, to a less effective degree. This less effective response merely consists of tiredness. Their dream walking does not give them the power to manipulate, but rather to be an observer and participant in dreams. Additionally, when the night sky is not above them, a nocturi’s healing factor becomes slower, being barely above their regular healing factor. [break][break] The most notable method of detecting a nocturi are their eyes. Deep within them are stars shining inside, glittering in the colours of their eyes. Depending on the colour of the nocturi’s eyes, this can gain a slightly galaxy-esk appearance. Otherwise, nocturi appear similar to regular people. These creatures are capable of ceasing the ageing process.
