the story

Hyakuji for much of its existence has been a sleepy town in Japan, dwarfed by both the major cities in the country like Tokyo and also even by regional cities, the largest of which Kaimu is far larger.

Throughout it's history it has suffered both tragedy and success. The town's school has had a particularly eventful history. It originally started as a manor of the Hyakuji Family. When their servents rebelled the manor was burnt to the ground, killing the entire family.

While the area around the manor grew into a town, the house itself continued to be left alone and run down. Eventually it was purchased by several wealthy investors and became a private school. The school flourished for several decades until it was burned to the ground in a mysterious fire that started in the library.

More time passed and some said that the school was cursed, but the Japanese Government eventually stepped in and purchased the land at a cheap price setting up a high school. It decided to use extra funds to develop a school for students not only from the area, but also to attract students from all over the world who had developed special powers. Hiring rather unique teachers, it aimed to create a truly special place, unique in all the world.

Hyakuji was just that, each year growing more and more exciting than the next. Last year was the most eventful by far.

Summer Season:

Hyakuji's summer was filled with adventure and the making of new friends. A newly arrived class filled the halls of the school with new life. While friendships were made and people grew dark forces were growing.

The idealistic town of Hyakuji began to have strange occurences happening starting with a strange case known as the 'Mystery of the Golden Skull'. Dubbed 'giant hand monsters' by many began attempting to recover things throughout Hyakuji. These creatures luckily were beaten at each occurence by students.

The summer season drew to a close after a beach trip where even more troubling occurences came when Shadow, an evil clone of the gym teacher Triyun Kun, was revealed to have begun targetting the school. Luckily Triyun managed to stop him this time but was unable to kill him, a costly mistake for later on.

When everyone returned from the Beach they found the source of the Hand Monsters was their history professor Archibald, who was really the ancient Lich Rawanuri. Rawanuri summoned a large army of undead under the command of his personal death knight. In a climactic battle the Hyakuji Ninja Guild and the Students managed to fight the army back and confronted Rawanuri ultimately catching him in the graveyard. But before he could be defeated he summoned a giant creature known as Zoranari. Zoranari consumed the Lich into his own power.

In a battle of desperation Zoranari was banished back into the void but he vowed to return someday. Afterwards Hyakuji began the process of rebuilding once again.

Late Summer Fall Session:

The adventures of the students of Hyakuji grew more and more numerous as more remarkable students arrived for the new session after summer break. The school's clubs began to get underway more in this session as new teachers arrived as well.

Yet all was again not well in Hyakuji. Shadow had rebelled from his holders and created the Hidden Guild of Shadows which began launching its sinister plans in Hyakuji, corrupting some students, and attempting to systematically take out the teachers.

Though Shadow's plans were initially though thwarted, his surprise attack on the Hyakuji Ninja Guild began a dark day in Hyakuji which culminated in him resummoning the great snake demon Orochi from a great tomb. In a battle where Triyun and Ayame Tatsuya, two teachers managed to take down Shadow and his top associate Menkong Su'un therebye weakening Orochi enough for the students to destroy Hyakuji was returned to balance.

Winter Session:

The winter session of Hyakuji began on a bit of an odd note. A spoiled rich young Master Fudo got it in his idea to capture all the girls in the world starting in Hyakuji High School and marry them. He successfully incapacitated the teachers and took the girls hostages.

As the male student population of Hyakuji fought to rescue their teachers and female counterparts, they faced some of the most unusual villians they had ever come across. Luckily Master Fudo was persuaded away from his course of action and things returned to normal for Christmas.

As the christmas spirit faded, an old enemy returned however. The Seven of who Zornari was a member of finally managed to revive all of themselves. Their power proved insurmountable no matter what the by now seasoned heros of Hyakuji threw against them.

It was at this time that they were all absorbed by a darker evil, a evil man turned demi-god began to show his thousand year old plan, that the events of the summer had started came to fruition. As teachers and students ascended the spire created by this new evil they found the remnants of the Lich Rawanari who gave them a weapon to release the Seven.

After a devastating battle in the top of the spire, Triyun was able to use the weapon given to him to release part of the Sevens spirit. As they fought inside the dark demi-god it distracted him long enough for Hyakuji's heros to seal him in the void. Hyakuji was at last free from the threat of the Seven.

Spring-Summer Session:

The spring session was the first relatively peaceful session of Hyakuji. People went about with their lives. New threats emerged, but nothing has yet come to fruition. Now as summer comes in and spring leaves we will see how long that lasts.

RULES

Getting Started:

Before you begin at Hyakuji you have to decide to respect the first five rules. Consider these your prime directive!

I. Read the Rules

Obviously you have already chosen to start on this, but read until the end. When you are done feel free to ask the moderators and if they can't answer, the admins questions about the rules. It is assumed that you read the rules, ignorance is not an excuse.

''II. Read the Announcements and News''

The staff assumes people stay current on the news and announcement forum. While we will not expect you to memorize old old news forum posts, the more recent ones we will expect you to be aware of.

''III. Treat the staff with respect''

Staffing is not an easy job, we are all human. You are expected to yield to the word of the staff and if you have a real dispute with one, deal with it in a civil manner. Also please give them time to respond to topics.

''IV. Treat other members with respect''

It is the job of the staff to make sure the rules are followed. I do not want to see from any of the members, "OMG you stupid n00b wtf r u doing!" If you see something that is rule breaking and its minor please politely tell someone if you are already involved in a topic. If it is major, or you are not in a topic inform the staff. We do not want vigilantism or elitism to develop.

Also if there are topics where you have a different view of something, do not automatically believe someone is dumb and therefore a communist nazi. Keep it civil ^^.

V. No advertising without permission and 100 posts

General Forum Regulations:

Suggestions and Complaints: In suggestions and complaints members can make suggestions or register complaints about certain things. Speaking against something that we did will not get you banned as long as you are reasonable about it. However, if you go there to flame the staff you will be banned. We expect anyone conversing here to refrain from personal attacks.

Next in regards to making topics, it is expected that people look through the old questions made in the forum. If you ask the exact same question about the level system as someone a week ago did, we'll lock the topic. If you require further clarification please use the old topic.

If members instead of staff answer the suggestions and complaints forum topics, we will take disiplinary action for providing false information. This may seem harsh but your just making our job that much harder if you really don't actually know the answer.

In regards to plot suggestions, there are a lot of suggestions we recieve over AIM, PM, and in the forum. The better detailed your description is the more likely it is to get approved, but don't be offended or down if your ideas don't get through.

General Chat: The General Chat is an open forum to discuss many things, however there are some things we won't tolerate.

1) RP "who is" topics done enmasse. I don't want to see 8 polls about who should I date, etc.  If we have a topic about the RP please do not spam it. 2) Do not spam in general, we are fairly laissez-faire compared to some other boards. But if we notice a pattern of spam, the hammer will drop. 3) No political topics, politics are great I eat live and breath it, but on message boards it breeds to much hard feelings. If you wanna discuss general social science issues go ahead, but there is a red line going into partisanship and I'll close the topic and be swift in my retribution.

Graphics Workshop: The staff leaves the graphics shops alone, we just want it to by a Hyakuji graphic shop, not a board wide graphic shop. Other than that we don't interfere, they are pretty much autonomous.

Welcome Forum: The welcome forward is where you can introduce yourself. If someone comes you don't like, please don't attack them or anything. Don't do that or spam and your free to post what you want in the welcome topics, except "don't come to HHS"

Now that you are ready to join!

Join Forum:

Congratulations now that you have read everything you can begin the process of joining the RPG. DO NOT POST ICLY UNTIL WE HAVE APPROVED YOU

Things you should be aware of:

1. Since this is after all a high school we do not allow characters starting out to have any sort of lethal weapons. This does not include things like bamboo or wooden staffs/swords but it does include things like real swords, maces, knives, guns, and other killing implements.

2. At the old board we had problems with certain types of powers being overused, we made and offlimits power list, if the problem arises again, we shall make a new one and you are going to have to check that to make sure a power you are thinking of is not on it.

3. Elemancer type characters can only have 1 element type, water and ice are allowed, but not water an lightning.

4. Godmoddish powers like time manipulation, making things out of thin air, and mind control will not be approved at all, so keep it reasonable.

5. You are expected to make sure your scheduling system works, if it doesn't and you need to edit your going to get a cranky mod when you try to change it.

6. Do no respond to other people's join topic if you aren't staff. Punishment will be taken.

8. If a few weeks pass in your join topic after a staff has responded and you still haven't we reserve the right to delete it.

What is this combat levelling of wish you speak, wtf this isn't FF is it?

No it is not. Combat levelling is just a general gauge of ability as a recognition of experience and long membership. Faculty members will naturally be stronger than their younger students for the most part. However they aren't supposed to go beat you up for no reason. Among students older students who have been in Hyakuji longer have developed their powers more and are thus stronger, though skill can still be used to overcome this somewhat.

You are given a maximum of 6 points to start out with that can be given to four catagories.

Physical Prowess: Physical prowess deals with what shape your body is in. To give you an idea the average physically well fit adult male could be say physical 4. This could count for speed, strength, agilty, many things. It is also important to remember a healthy body can take more abuse than an unhealthy one.

Chakra/Chi: Everyone has seen Yu Yu Hakusho, Dragon Ball, Naruto, etc. The energy which people use to perform moves in those shows can be counted under this catagory. Typically it and physical are a favorite combination among many members.

Elemental: Elemental magic is the ability for one to manipulate and generate a single element. While more specific than Chi in what type of energy and range attacks it can use, users of elemental magics have extra powers in that element. Often time not only can they use an element offensively but also can easily block damage from that element, and use it for utility purposes.

Example: Kashim uses raging soul storm no jutsu to fire a chakra based lightning bolt at Amaya. Amaya uses her mastery of electricty to absorb most of the attack and fire the rest at Kashim. With her reserve power she uses it to power a toaster to make herself peanut butter toast.

Supernatural: Supernatural is a broad catagory, those with mastery of the supernatural can do many things. While some are legendary sorcerors, others have developed psychic minds. This is the unexplainable and strange.

A few more things before submitting your profile -Please run spell checker if you know you are not a good speller, small mistakes don't really irk us, big ones though do and we may not approve your profile. -Please use the third person in your role play sample. -Don't get discouraged if you aren't immediatly approved and their are some problems with your profile. -Use the tags we provided for you in the correct places like [CODE][b]name[/b] [/CODE] -[b]You must[/b] dorm on campus if you are a student. To get a dorm you must first prove you are going to stay on the site by accumulating 100 posts or have done so on the previous board before it got deleted. It is unfair yto your roommates if you say you'll be here then leave after such a short time. The process of dorming will be detailed later on but please include it in your profile. -Mashed Potatoes. This is implemented into the join category so that we know you've read the rules.. The answer? 'There is no spoon' for days that are even when the profile was created and 'The proof is in the pudding' for days that are odd. In other words, if you create your profile on an odd day, then use the odd one for your answer.

'So my profile has been approved, I am ready to start Role Playing. What now?'

Check the Intercom: Check the intercom to make sure we are in free time, if classes are in session you are expected to roleplay in that class. You will be treated as a fugitive from hall monitor justice if you don't. Assuming that classes are not in session you have two options.

If we are during the normal school year you can RP in up to two topics at once, only one of which however can be club, rumor, or fight. Free time however must end immediatly once classes begin.

If we are on break from school, you can RP in up to 4 places at once (though preferably 3) the same restrictions on what kind of RPs apply.

Be sure to take note of weather and time of day during normal school periods as it is described in the intercom.

Select an Open Roleplay or start your own:

Take note of where you roleplay. You cannot start RPing in a topic that says closed or semi-closed or gives any specific instructions for joining. If a topic says nothing or open, you can feel welcome to join it.

If you want to make your own topics go ahead, people may join them, people may not. If it is a few hours since you posted it and no one has responded please do not get discouraged and think no one likes you.

Combat Expanded:

Combat is part of Hyakuji though it is not the primary genre as Hyakuji has no true one genre. During combat some things you should be aware of.

1. You are limited in your abilities, you aren't Goku. When you post please try and keep it reasonable with your power, it angers the staff when you overuse your power. 2. Make only a few attacks and then give your opponent a chance to respond when you fight. Do not go all out 100 punches in one turn. 3. Do not say you landed a hit on your opponent, this is considered god modding and will be dealt with harshly. 4. If there is an OOC dispute of what exactly you can do, first try to resolve it by yourselves. If it lasts for more than one OOC post each take it out of the thread to PM or IM. If things still can't be resolved ask a staff. 5. Be aware of your opponent and your relative strength. While you [u]can[/u] by mutual agreement discard the level system from a fight, it is meant to help mediate problems. If there is a clear gap typically it is assumed the one with a much higher level wins. Also note though, just because one person is weak in an area, doesn't mean they are weak overall and can't use another area to counter a move. 6. Use common sense, this RPG is meant to be fun, don't be a douche. 7. You can kill a character if you want, but it is murder and you will be hunted down and caught. If your character goes to jail thats it for him in Hyakuji. 8. If you character has the power to create illusions they cannot constantly do so of themselves in a fight. Nor should things like kiwarmi be constant whenever someone hits you.

Example of good sportmanship:

Triyun: Triyun moves in to attack Muhrtag swinging down his sword at the fellow social science teachers head.

Muto: Muhrtag brings his demonic chain up to counter the sword and then swings to hit Triyun.

Triyun: Triyun takes a hit, but his armor prevents any serious damage to his abdomen from occuring. Gasping for air as the wind was knocked out of him, the ninja jumps back and tosses a kunai at Muhrtag's shoulder, he would pay for eating the last jelly donut.

Muto: Muhrtag evades to the side but his shoulder is sliced slightly open by the kunai flying past him.

Notice how both players have taken some hits, as well as only done a small amount of attacking giving the other a chance to respond to their attacks and not forcing them on the other. This is what you want to do.

Joining a Club:

Do not ask when the next club meeting of a club will be held. The leader will make a topic. Anyone is welcome to join a club provided their schedule permits it (you can't go to two clubs on the same day). Some clubs are combat building up related, others are more geared towards entertainment. To join a club simply show up at the meeting and you will be in it. Keep an eye out for these topics.

Attempting Rumors:

Rumors have been part of Hyakuji since the beginning of the RPG over a year ago. To attempt rumors it is recommended you do so in a group. Contact an admin or moderator to start it and assuming they have time and are convinced you have a group with sufficent expertise to attempt the rumor it will begin. Rumors are not meant to be easy to solve. If you do not treat the challenges you are given with adequate respect the staff member has the right to end the rumor right there. It is highly unlikely that hacking and slashing alone will get you throught a rumor.

'Yay! I've been here met some friends and am starting to get the hang of this place. Is there anything more'

Requesting a signature

There are many at Hyakuji with graphic making skills who can make you a signature for your character. If you have one made by them, only request it for Hyakuji. Also keep in mind to make a small signature, a look around the board will give you an idea for what that means. Your signature will get horribly disfigured by Zorak's MS paint skills if you make an obviously too large one, or one in poor taste.

Requesting a dorm room

When you join you are not immediatly given a dorm, this does not mean your character doesn't have one, it just means OOCly you aren't allowed to post there yet. When we gave everyone dorms immediatly most of them were vacant within 2 weeks. Therefore once you get 100 posts either make a request with a current dorm room or with at least one other person of the same sex for a dorm.

Template: Dorm Request Form: Housing Request: Either Yuki, Yoshima, or Fudo House Roommate Request: There can be up to four roommates in a dorm and no less than two. All roommates must have the same gender

Once you get a dorm, while you are allowed to have people of the opposite sex in your room, this board does not condone cyber or students having co-ed sleep overs.

Can I have two characters or two accounts now that I have been here a while?

No only admins can have two accounts and they need to have a good reason. As for two characters NPC or full PC that may happen to some players but these are for special rewards. It won't be granted to everyone, older members are more likely to get these. -

These rules will be updated periodically be sure to check back especially when the version changes. We expect you to keep yourself fairly updated with them.
