Lazuli City, a large coastal city in contemporary Japan, isn’t well known for much beyond its Lapis Lazuli Export, its name rooting from the gem rock; however, this story looks at a different aspect about Lazuli City. Magic is a very influential tool, more so in Lazuli City, as there is a deep secret that very few families are aware of, a secret which makes this remote city somewhat a very crucial place.

Even though Japan had very little to do with European History, there has been a myth passed down through the ages. In times of olde, the 12th century, the Knight of the Round table under the name of Lancelot was asked, by an oriental seer Chihensen, to come to a land untouched by nature, and forever symbolise his legend under a magical heraldic seal as the Knave of Clubs, activating this ancient seal and unleashing the magic bloodline who would save the world form inevitable destruction. Thus as the knight parted with a portion of his blood, he forged the final piece in the seal, setting in stone the Magical Seal of the Four Suits, awakening a new golden age. Each year, once, in the ancient temple, a seal would appear upon the ancient ground, to signal the child of the suit had been born, and thus Arcane magic had entered the world, graspable by mortal means, these children being granted the power more thoroughly than others. Lancelot, though voluntarily granting his words and activating the seal, was for some reason displeased with his position as the Knave of Clubs, his own greed taking hold of him, and thus he had his revenge by informing the Church of this, who had begun to persecute of the magic seal, which caused strife to such a degree eventually an order, Twilight, had made their march towards the site of the Temple, and took control of it with ease due to their technological prowess at this time. After seizing control of the temple, each time the symbol flashed a suit, Twilight would search and slaughter children who they believed who bore the heraldic seal. Despite this, the ageless seer Chihensen, who had managed to evade this mistreatment, and who had watched the horrific death of her order’s men and women, escaped with the 12 cards, as well as 5 more. She escaped with the 3 Royals of the 4 Suits, as well as the aces, and one different card, the Fleur de Lis. By removing the cards, she turned off the seal, and thus stripped humanity once again of magic, as Twilight had proved they could not be trusted. She hid these cards well, these relics, and gifted them away to families, who then gifted them to families, and so on until Twilight could not keep track of the cards, eventually giving up their cause and abandoning the temple. In doing so, Chihensen had returned a final time, to place in the aces, so that the children could be born with dormant magic inherited in their spirits.

Now, today, there are twelve families who hold these royals, one to each family; their goal is simple: compete against each other, one’s magicians against another’s, to collect all of the cards to a single holder, so that the seal could be safely reactivated and guarded by the most magically powerful people upon the earth. However, one day, it was fabled that the Fleur de Lis would reveal him, or herself, and would become the turning tide in the battle for the cards; the four Aces and the Fleur de Lis would act upon the Gestalt principle, the whole being greater than the sum, in order to assemble the cards before the seal breaks, unleashing an ancient evil: a gate to the underworld.

Little does Hyde Kokobunji or those around him know, their lives will soon change forever, and not necessarily for the best…

Credits:

The Logo for this RP was created by Daemon.
This RP's Secondary Character System was based upon Blu's "Guest RPer System".
This RP has been inspired by the OVA of Highschool DxD, some elements having being incorporated, such as the principle of “families” rather than “clans”. Lord Gringham also makes use of destruction, a power shared by a protagonist of the anime. Also, similarly to the anime, this RP makes use of religious references.
The inspiration for this RP was outlined to me by Desu; originally for the boobage purposes, I actually found useful content.
The images used for backgrounds are CGs from various Japanese Visual Novels.

I already have the Ace of Spades reserved. Decided to use an idea that I had for my future story for my character's powers. :3

By the way, *Puts Blu in a headlock.* You bastard. Kyng totally gave me a spot and I don't see no Raine.

Edit:
No wait, top right corner in small print. HI RAINE! *Waves.*

Edit Edit: Pretty much what I have of my app so far. This post will be edited more and more and things may not be exactly the same as they are right now. But I won't be able to edit not all that much tomorrow. Or today if you're one of those pricks who are extremely technical with days.

Leon Theme #3 - Call of the Sands - Leon's theme when in close combat, a more relaxed theme compared to Champion of the Gods.
Leon Theme #4 - Flight of the Divine Djerd! - Leon's theme when using the Divine Djerd.
Leon Theme #5 - Champion of the Gods - Leon's alternative combat theme, often suited for the more crucial and dramatic 1 on 1 battles.

That's weird though, thought Raine was the Ace of Spades? Did for some reason he can't participate?

Raine and I have organized a more fulfilling position for him, due to the fact he doesn't enjoy playing a certain role; don't worry, it's dealt with.

Good question: No, you won't have any abilities for the time being, I'll let y'all know when they'll be used; rough estimate is Chapter 5.

Sorry, I've been a bit busy today. And by busy I mean lazy/driving my dad a bit/anime/waking up late/at a chick friend's house for the past few hours where I pretty much just took it like a b*tch and will probably have some bruises tomorrow. So...hi?

You mean this one? Yeah, I was going to check it out. Which I'll do now so that I don't just post this, wait for a reply, and then post with what I did. By the way, quoting can work sometimes.

Well it's working for me fine. I just recommend quoting it and looking at the quote.
