Seoul
Seoul is the capital and largest metropolis of South Korea. Within Seoul are the five top Hunter Guilds in the country (in order of strongest to least strongest): Noblesse, Cerberus; Spear; Blitz; and Dynasty. Seoul has a population of 9.7 million Hunters with only 9 Hunters that are S-rank at present time. The guild with the most S-rank hunters is Noblesse. GM Note: Seoul has multiple districts, and you are free to mention the names of specific districts (Itaewon, Hongdae, Gangnam, etc.) your character travels to, but for game purposes and ease of in-game navigation, I have marked them on the map as numbers. In game, they will be referred to as "Sector." So if something happens in "Sector #," then you should be able to look at the map and orient your character. If you say your character is from a specific area, please mention only the sector number so players understand. Same for if your character runs a business.

South Korean Hunter Association - They aren't a guild. They are the overseeing organization who records the rank of every Hunter in South Korea. If a foreign, high-ranked Hunter visits the country, then its Monitoring Division intercepts the Hunter to escort them to the Hunter Association President. High-rank foreign hunters must submit a special request to visit South Korea, and the request must be approved by not only the Hunter Association President but the South Korean government. The Seoul Monitoring Division tracks the growth of every Hunter in Seoul. Hunters who feel their rank has increased due to improvement in the portal dungeons can have their rank evaluated at Monitoring Centers. Some Hunters may experience an awakening that can have them randomly jump to a higher rank. The Monitoring Division takes its job very seriously. No Hunter is allowed to operate in South Korea if they 1) do not have a Hunter license, and 2) are not registered in their database. Some Hunters go about masquerading a false rank. They are very dangerous and are called False Rankers. The Monitoring Division tries to deal with these threats as soon as they detect or catch wind of one.
Seoul Metropolitan Government - They are the Mayor, the police, etc. All other government agencies in South Korea and Seoul specifically are being lumped into this category. The people don't believe the government is actually running the country. There's a conspiracy going around that the Hunter Association actually runs everything.
Player-Created Locations
If your character has a residence, business, or they are creating locations that other characters can visit, then they will be logged here so that other players know where they are and who created them.
1. Jiwon's apartment - Location: Sector 23 by HeyitsJiwon.
2. Cult - Location: Sector 10 - A café which offers a variety of drinks, sandwiches, and pastries from 8AM to 10 PM. They are all freshly made at least 1 day in advance. - Created by Duck Prince.
3. 7/11 - Location: All Sectors - A convenience store where one can get food and other confections. It's where Jeoung-nam works. - Created by Misuteeku.
4. Hyong Aparments - Location: Sector 10 - A middle-class apartment complex. Decent in size and quiet. - Created by Duck Prince.
5. Juknokwon Apartments - Location: Sector 12 - Middle-class apartments of decent size in a quiet area; however, due to their proximity to the university, the rent is high. - Created by Megilagor.
6. Korea University - Location: Sector 12 - Requires a special pass to enter certain parts of the university. Otherwise, public. - Created by Megilagor.
7. Perth Vet - Location: Sector 8 - Animal hospital, and place of apprentiship for many young Vets such as Hana. - Created by Megilagor.
Player-Created NPCs
While the GM does write a bunch of NPCs, you may have NPCs of your own that are family members, friends, landlords, etc. Any relevant NPC created by a player will be logged here.
1. Oswald Lark - Location: Sector 10 - Owner of Cult and Chin Mae Jun's boss. He is a tall, 6'2" man with black hair who works the front of the café and often seen in a server's uniform. - Created by Duck Prince.
2. Ji-Hye Geun - Location: Sector 12 - Landlady of the apartment complex where Narae "Hana" Hanaeul resides in, he rents a room in her apartment for cheap. Old sweet lady who cares for people from her apartment complex. Grandma/Mother figure for Hana. - Created by Megilagor.
3. Jwan Jeong-Ho - Location: Sector 12 - Jwan Min-Jee's brother and youngest of the family. All heart, some brawn, and no brain. Jeong-Ho is the complete polar opposite of his big sister; for whom she's picked up a tendency of pushing her buttons every chance he gets. - Created by Haze-
4. Jwan Dong-Yul - Location: Sector 12 - Jwan Min-Jee's father and recurring source of her headaches. A traditional man that thinks of himself as 'showy' or 'stylish', much to his families annoyance. Dong-Yul was once loud and foulmouthed but becoming a househusband has done things to him, rewired his brain. He is still quite flippant and boisterous, but has learned to quiet down whenever his wife enters the room. - Created by Haze-
Hunter Guilds
Noblesse
Guild Leader: Yu-Jun Bu, "The Red Queen"
Description: Noblesse is known for having the most S-rank Hunters and for being the wealthiest guild in the country. Interestingly, with having so many powerful hunters, they are the smallest guild out of the five. Noblesse doesn't just recruit anyone, and they certainly don't recruit small fry. If you're a member of Noblesse, then you're someone to be feared. It is a guild for the few and the proud and because they are so few, meeting any Noblesse member on the street can be shocking. Noblesse has Hunter Academies that only the most wealthiest families can afford putting their children in. Being apart of this academy doesn't guarantee one a spot in Noblesse, instead, it is just another passive income for the organization. While there do exist stories of Hunters graduating out of the academy into Noblesse, they are few. The Red Queen is called such for her love of the color red. She is rarely seen not wearing red.
Cerberus
Guild Leader: Dal Jin, "Prodigy" (Child Prodigy)
Description: Cerberus has the third largest guild population. Like Noblesse, it is top-heavy, but it doesn't make such a big deal of straining the masses to find the one gold nugget. If you're A-S, Cerberus will snatch you up. Being second to Noblesse has made the guild starving to exceed them in power. Cerberus has a mining and collection group that works for all the guilds. However, Dynasty, the newly rising guild, has started to create its own mining and collection group, realizing the passive income it is for Cerberus. Cerberus will hire miners regardless of their rank to enter portal dungeons behind raid groups to farm mana crystals. The collection group gathers the monster corpses for materials. Dal Jin is known as Prodigy or "Child Prodigy" because he is the youngest guild leader out of the five. He is merely a teenager who started as an E rank and was reawakened into an S-rank. I wouldn't call him a kid to his face if I were you.
Spear
Guild Leader: Ha-Kun Yang, "The Commander"
Description: Out of all the guilds, Spear has the best leadership and the least amount of corruption. However, Spear's "Commander" hasn't left the military mindset. He believes himself to be a general and that everyone in his guild is a soldier. He prioritizes only those Hunters who served their military time. Spear is run like a military where they have their own raid training, combat and leadership classes. The best raid commanders are in Spear, so if your raid commander happens to be from that guild, then your success for completing the dungeon is higher. This doesn't mean everyone will make it out alive. Increased success is only guaranteed.
Blitz
Guild Leader: Ju-Won Jeong, "Warrior Princess"
Description: The most interesting thing about this guild is that every member is a female. Only females are allowed in Blitz, and the idea of an all-female guild has attracted many women across South Korea and other countries, making them the second largest guild. They have nothing against men. Ju-Won just wants to give all females Hunters the spotlight and a chance to shine. Blitz even has its own K-pop group that is a huge success in South Korea. Ju-Won doesn't go easy on training her guild members. Some of the most bad ass female Hunters come from Blitz. Ju-Won is called The Warrior Princess because she has been ranked as the most beautiful Guild Leader (making The Red Queen secretly jealous). She looks dainty and doe-like, but she is a force to be reckoned with.
Dynasty
Guild Leader: The Emperor
Description: Man? Woman? The Emperor is an androgynous figure and no one has ever dared to ask them their gender. Regardless, Dynasty is the largest and most popular guild in the country because they don't have any special requirements to join. E ranks can join. Dynasty takes everybody. They have created their own mining and collection business to farm mana crystals and monster corpses. They are becoming one giant processing plant for gear and almost every member is clad in some impressive equipment, which draws many Hunters to quickly join their ranks. The Emperor believes that every Hunter is already apart of Dynasty, they just haven't realized it yet.
IC Rules
1. Do not open portals. Players do not open portals whatsoever.
2. This isn't Grand Theft Auto. Almost every person in the world is a Hunter. You just don't know what rank they are at times. Do not go committing terrorism throughout the city and have the cops and government, or Hunter Association chasing you down. Your character will be dealt with and you may lose them as a result.
3. Obey the GM Interactions. I mean, you don't have to but you may not benefit. You can also choose not to obey them for story purposes. You were warned though!
4. No Meta-Gaming. The knowledge you know IRL is not the knowledge your character knows. Please do not do this.
5. No God-moding. Do not control other player's characters without their consent.
6. Romance. It can happen but please follow the RPN rules. A kiss on the cheek and a hug is okay. Anything above that, nope. Don't do it.
7. Watch the News. This isn't really a rule. I'm telling you that your character needs to watch or read the news somehow to know what's going on. You may see the GM drop prompts, but they aren't seen until you post your character seeing them.
8. Picture Sizes. Please control the size of your picture. If you are posting from your phone and can't size down the art, then don't post it until you're at a computer. Nobody wants a massive picture taking up their webpage and lagging things.
9. No neon colors. Some people are on light mode. Some people are on dark. Just avoid neon colors please or just don't even use colors if you can help it.
10. Log your gains in your CS. You need to add the "date" your character received it. You need to add anything you gain to your CS. If you aren't keeping track of your gains and I audit your sheet, you will be warned only two times. After that, I'm sorry. Cheaters do not prosper here.
11. Travel. If your character travels from one sector to the next, then they must spend a turn doing so. Your character cannot travel, for example, from Sector 1 to Sector 21 in one post. Also, if there is a portal dungeon open in another sector, and players are already engaged with it, you must wait until 1 round in their posting order is complete before you can join the scenario.
12. 10 person portal dungeon limit. In order to enter a portal dungeon, you need a party of ten. No more than 10 is allowed in the portal dungeon. This is more an OOC rule than a story rule. This 10 person limit does not restrict GM NPCs. If there are enemies outside of the portal dungeon, then great. This rule doesn't apply. It only applies for inside a portal dungeon. Who can go into a dungeon; who can join whose party; is drama that needs to be resolved and decided between characters IC.
