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

This feeling... it couldn't be anything but pure utter bliss. It was almost as if he was on cloud nine, or at least what he'd envisioned it to feel like. His eyes glanced between the television and his husbands face but more times often not did they focus on Adonai's features. Nitzan was enamored with the way his husbands hand rubbed his hip, such a simple touch and yet it filled him completely with a sense of warmth none other than only his husband could accomplish. The chatter of the television buzzed on in the background and while he listened in from time to time, his attention lingered mostly on his husband. There's a content sigh leaving the Oni... both of them had long work days with constant interaction with their kids. The presence of the children did bring him joy but moments where the two were able to soak up another's love for another like this was as much appreciated for the red head. [break][break] It was by chance when Adonai turned his gaze back to him in the same moment he had turned to look back at his husband, their eyes locked and the kiss to his forehead that followed made his lips tug a bashful grin as a hum rumbled out from the back of his throat. The loving act makes him feel a sense of euphoria, as if he almost feels woozy on all the love lingering between them. The tension was nice and hearing him murmur those sweet words had his arms squeezing him tightly.[break][break] "I love you too..." His cheeks are lightly flushed but he can't help but let out a small giggle. Hearing him say that always filled him with giddiness. To be loved by Adonai was the best feeling in the world. Such a moment lasted for long but the sound of his youngest voice calling out from a distant hall in the house had his head turning to look in the general direction it came from. It wasn't unusual for times like this to be interrupted and Nitzan minded not one bit.[break][break] Nitzan adjusted his position as the sound of his daughters footsteps filled the room. A soft quiet sound of him clearing his throat as he leaned forward to look down and pay attention to whatever Kina wished to show the both of them. Nitzan couldn't help but stare in awe and crack a grin seeing his daughter so excited and passionate about something to a point of where she went out of her way to do the extra research. Her efforts showed that clearly this wasn't something she thought up on a whim. [break][break] His finger gently taps the paper. "I think it's a nice idea. Kina has also shown with her work here that she's put effort into learning how it works..." Although neither Adonai or Nitzan knew a thing about it. It looked like a big project from the sound of it but if she's able to successfully guide the both of them into making this a reality...[break][break] "I think the best way to start figuring this out in full is explain to us in the best way you can about how setup works, wouldn't you say... Adonai?" His head turns to look at his husband, his smile only widening. "If we're making this happen we oughta know all the details so we don't mess up."
[attr="class","smoll"]Nitzan has a bulky build despite his shorter than average side. He's a war veteran with a lot of experience and his body shows this from his muscles all the way down to the scars scattered among his body. His arms and legs are both short in length but are both defined with muscle. Nitzan is someone who actively keeps his body in shape due to his natural work requirements of being a bounty hunter. [break][break] He has neck length messy red hair usually paired up with a blue and yellow accented bandana that settles around his forehead. He has large and round blue eyes with thin red eyebrows to follow suit. Nitzan has a squared face shape with a rounded chin. His lips are thin in size but once he smiles does his mouth appear bigger. [break][break] His choice of clothing leans on the more casual side of things. Having a blue shirt with a collar that is white with gold accenting. His sleeves are short, stopping ways above his elbow. He usually is seen wearing gloves over his hands but that depends. He wears dark brown pants joined with boots to finish off the outfit.

[attr="class","smoll"]Born as the only child of the headstrong Dragović family, devoted followers of Volos. Given the name Nitzan; a flower bud that his parents hoped would grow into the oni that would bring glory to the Dragović family name.[break][break] They were a family that weren't by any means well known or spoken of but both of his parents had been long term followers and soldiers for Volos. His parents sought out more for their family with the birth of Nitzan. Raising him to be what they hoped him to be-- a success story. They taught him to be familiar with a blade and various fighting styles from the moment he was able to think for himself.[break][break] Telling him he must treat his blade much like a third arm. Never failing to wield it in times of need or moments where it was expected for him to prosper. He took these words to heart and challenged himself as a means to make his parents and his god proud.[break][break] Nitzan put utmost effort into becoming the soldier his parents wanted him to be. Through the trials and hardships he faced along the journey. He never let himself give up or back down from the challenges he was faced with. It resulted in the outcome of Nitzan becoming the picture perfect soldier his parents were hoping for. [break][break] With the start of the war, Nitzan became one of the many unstoppable forces on the battlefield. Having his blade be stained with the lives of many fallen foes. It was a path he longed accepted so he didn't have time to think back on his actions but instead did what he spent so long training for. [break][break] As time moved along so did the war. The amount killed had become a blur and the mourning he partook in grew to such great levels. Losing various comrades to losing both of his parents in a gruesome battle. It was the first time Nitzan had faltered and this hesitation is what allowed a lethal blow on him to have happened. Unlike the many men before him, he did manage to get out... not unscathed but unconscious and seemingly so for a very long time.[break][break] It wasn't until years after the war had ended that Nitzan finally regained consciousness. It felt like time hadn't moved at all but judging by what he was told and what he heard... he had no choice but to carry on with his live. Rehabilitation was a thing for the oni, having been under for as long as he had. [break][break] Through the times of regaining his strength was he able to learn of the events following the war. From Zeredah's take over to the creation of both TRS and AP. Learning about the terrors plaguing the world and the risk of the innocent that follow. His feelings for how the war ended left him confused and lost for a very long time. It took some time for Nitzan to figure out where he belonged now that he was stuck to living on earth and there was no need for him to be a hell soldier much longer.[break][break] With the release of him after he fully recovered is when he had began to explore around. Learning how times changed since he was last awake... and that was when Nitzan had come across the Hollow Order. It was by chance but this chance gave him the very purpose he had been seeking. It was an organization with a goal he could get behind and wanted to have a had in working with so it was how he ended up becoming a bounty hunter.[break][break] His time in the Hollow Order went by in a flash but along the way had he gained the opportunity to meet a very attractive male with luscious green hair and quite the appealing personality. It took a attempt of him flirting for him to successfully woo him to get his number. The two's relationship naturally followed afterwards. From a conversation to them having their first date with the second, third, and many more following. The relationship between them formed and Nitzan had the chance to get to know the lovely man named Adonai Blane.[break][break] He was like a drop of color in his monochromatic life. Having followed a pattern for so long but meeting this man who brought him happiness and a change he never anticipated happening. The two would go on to marry happily and even start themselves a family. One kid turned into two and two turned into eight. With Adonai and his children at his side, Nitzan anticipates what the future has in store for them.[break][break]
