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

Heat has broken through into a glorious summer. The snow has entirely dried through the spring, leaving to the brilliance of the warmer months.

[attr="class","metsection"]The devil leaned back in his chair as a long exhale followed. Paperwork had always been the tedious part of this job. He straightened his posture as his head shook a bit, he cracked his fingers before he got himself back into gear. His hand returned to the mouse- continuing clicking away at the document he had been writing the report up on for the last mission he had been assigned too. A few had been terrors causing trouble in downtown- it took a small group to finally reign them in and Eugen managed to even secure one for an old pal of his down in the research laboratory which was what he had been typing up in this moment. [break] [break]
Normally, he wouldn't think to do such a thing when the terror was in such a high risk area but it hadn't took Eugen much to suppress it which is why he felt confident in being able to safely contain it. Now, they had killed about every other with a terror coming with! It was an overall win for them, took care of troubling terrors in addition to gaining a subject to hopefully get more information out of. With a few more taps of his keys... Eugen had completed the report. A save of the file had been made before he began to forward it to no one other than his good ol' reliable (somewhat) sergeant. [break] [break]
Eugen leaned back in his chair, tongue fiddling with the small lolipop he had in his mouth. It was a way to suppress his nicotine craving during work. The man couldn't readily just smoke in the room and the candy was the solution. His eyes glanced up to the clock on the wall, a sigh falling from him as he finished eating what had been his third one of the day. The devil stood up from his seat to dispose the stick into his nearby trash can. [break] [break] Although the sound of the door opening hadn't come at a better time. His head turned in time to be met with the face of a man who he enjoyed the time of. "Brasti, hey." A friendly greeting as he notably felt his mood uplift. The perks of being soulmates and all, just being in his presence was a general mood shift. Not that the two ever acted on such a bond past platonic relations. His co-worker was married and expecting. Eugen was not one to disrupt a marriage so the two had opt'd to this a friendship. "Perfect that I finished work, ey? I'll come with." [break] [break]
It was a good thing he had his smokes in his pocket- he simply followed after Brasti. A break was well required after having sat in the damn painful swirly chair for most of the day. "How's the day treating you? Anyone do anything stupid?" He was envious of the whole getting to look at security cameras. He could only imagine the kind of crap a guy would get to see but beyond that Eugen much enjoyed his position of being a hunter. He was more of a brawn kind of guy than brains.
Eugen is an unpredictable male who stands at 5'10" and has solid build. He has long arms with medium length legs. He has a notable scar on his face with tanned skin and yellow undertones. Eugen's face is long and oval shaped that is always shaved nice and clearly. He has black tossed hair with almond shaped dark brown eyes. He has thick black eyebrows to match his hair. Eugen has a tattoo that starts all the way at his neck all the way down to his ankles. It's red in color and took a few years to fully finish but it was a gift for being sober.
Eugen typically wears casual yet comfy clothing's although mostly he's seen in formal wear for the sake of appearing as a proper individual although he hates wearing suits with a passion.
TW: DRUG ABUSE/ADDICTION, ALCOHOL ADDICTION, ABUSE, VIOLENCE
The Sauvageon were once a renowned military family that had many members of it's kin serving as soldiers. The members of the family all grew to be natural fighters, following in the footsteps of their own parents and going onto obtain notable positions. Having served for a long time as soldiers and fighting in countless wars that came and went. It was only shortly after the birth of Eugen that his parents had any sort of change within their lives.
A praised family now had become one tarnished by the wrongdoings of his father and mother. Rumors which ended up in an investigation and a devastating confession from a handful of other soldiers where admittance to the harsh and unjust bullying both of his parents showed to those who were meant to be their fellow comrades. Words which were disguised to said to be innocent concerns had deeper ill intentions. More investigation had revealed negligence in their behavior and more unspeakable behavior.
Such actions caused them to be reprimanded and kicked out of the military, the family's reputation becoming tarnished as well as his own parents being both respectively dismissed and no longer acknowledge as children or siblings to their own respective families the fall of his parents had began. Things all of the treatment and luxuries they had grown used to rapidly faded which allowed for rather hard times to be thrusted onto the family.
The two never had really been exceptional parents during their time within the military but still, they were decent enough up until everything took place. Desperate times came around the same period that Eugen had just been starting his second year of middle school. An all new low had been hit, his parents sunk into the darkest desires ones mind may crave.
Starting small with alcohol which rapidly turned into much more harsher and harder to come back from addictions. Rather than having the freedom to live and grow as he pleased; Eugen ended up taking the role of a parent more than his own did. Having to care for two adults who were reduced to hysteria from the drugs they'd be shooting up or the alcohol they've decided to drink.
Being slapped or pushed around was something Eugen had grown used to. Words of abuse and harsh things that should never be said to a child were spoken but Eugen never flinched. Not even after they had gone as far as to harm him to where hospitalization was needed. Being drunk to near point of blackout with the mixture of anger never faired right; an innocent question of how did you pay for all of this? resulted in a shattered glass and severely wounded Eugen.
Dropped off at the hospital without a care for his own safety but hurls of insults and threats were further made if he dared open his mouth. So Eugen came up with an excuse- a pretty believable one because he had grown to be too good at lying due to his circumstances. The return home after the long stay was rougher than anything he'd experience. His body was meant to recover and yet he had been thrusted back into the reality that no one was going to care for him.
No one was going to care if he needed rest; He had to take care of his parents otherwise knowing the risks of what they might do were far more severe than whether or not his stitches reopened. So he downed the pills that came with his visit and barely powered through the days. Although his reliance on this medication grew the more he took it and before he knew it, he found himself following in the same exact footsteps of his parents.
Addicted and needing more in order to remain sane, to remain capable of being the one to look out for them. So just as he'd go and buy things for them-- he'd get some for himself. Starting small which overtime rapidly grew more. Care for his own life gradually became less and less to where eventually he dropped out of high school completely. Finding himself deep within the depths of his own addiction and the despair of his home life where he had been treated awfully.
A sticky mess that Eugen believed he would never grow to escape. Where he would end up passing away before he could live his life out fully but it was a fateful exchange that had manage to grab him from the deeps of his despair and pull him afloat. A person much older than him who faced their own troubles and became interested in helping him have a better life. Took him out of his home immediately and assisted him helping him cut contact with his family.
His life only went up from here... Addiction was hard to get over but with the persistent help of this person had he been able to make it through. Their influence over him also allowed for him to join TRS and finish off school before he'd go on to become a hunter. It took a long time for him to recover but he finally caught hold of his life thanks to the assistance of this person. Eugen presently spends his days within TRS as a hunter for unit three. A man who despite it all is still rather lonely although he's no longer facing a rough every day to day life.
