“Those are very special eyes you have, truly a window to the soul. Make sure to close them when the siren sounds.”
At a certain time in history, the Muduo (Eye-snatchers) appeared. They are fierce, grotesque creatures, some even have abilities that humans only dreamt of when thinking of gods. These creatures preyed on humans, but only specifically their eyes. They have a special attraction to those orbs, as for why, it’s still quite unknown.
To take refuge from these monsters, the humanity of today huddles in cities connected via railroad, made with materials that can hide the presence of a person’s eyes. Of course, there is a fighting chance, humanity’s champions: the Visionaries. Visionaries are people who possess a strange eye colour, as well as a supernatural ability that goes along with it. They vary in nature, but they give people the ability to fight against the Muduo.
Welcome to Mistol, or the ‘Capital of the Mist’, as many would describe it as. Being the largest settlement of humans, it is an industrial city surrounded by a perpetual mist, with a strange tower at its core. It is said the mist keeps the Muduo at bay, a rumor or truth? That’s still unknown.
This bastion is not fool proof however, the ever expanding population thins out the mist, and Muduos occasionally spill over in places where the mist retreats. This is why Mistol is also the biggest employer and talent agent of Visionaries. With good treatment, benefits, and even a special method to allow the survival of lethal damage, foreign Visionaries’ desire to seek employment in Mistol is almost as strong as an average Mistol citizen’s wish to awaken as a Visionary.
Of course, there is always a catch to these sorts of things, but...you don't need to worry. Everything will be fine.
At the heart of the city stands the great Misthart Tower, an enormous structure that serves as the main government institution. It handles many day to day affairs as well as the employment of Visionaries and defense against the Muduo. About 10% of Misthart Tower’s employees are visionary, the rest are ordinary people simply having a job. There are six main departments within the Tower that handle various different jobs.
So, welcome to my interest check I guess.
Visionary Panic is an anime-esque, dystopian urban fantasy about people with superpowers killing monsters that wants to eat their eyeballs. There are some mystery elements (that I hopefully presented in the interest check itself) so it wouldn't be strictly beating up monsters.
The players will be a part of a newly formed "special task force" team and take on menial tasks and fetch quests (by anime standards) while finding out sus things about the truth behind the world they live in. There is a "main plot" per say, but there will also be free sandbox periods for developing character relationships. Depending on what types of character sheets I receive I will try to integrate plots for specific characters as well.
Discord OOC is preferred and art/anime face claims only.
Posting expectations is 1-3 times a week, 1 paragraph/5 sentences or more per post. If you want to most shorter and more frequently there can be collabs.
I would like 4-5 players to start, if more are interested I will consider getting a co-GM to help me out as I do all the writing, planning, and art for this RP.

At the heart of the city stands the great Misthart Tower, an enormous structure that serves as the main government institution. It handles many day to day affairs as well as the employment of Visionaries and defense against the Muduo. About 10% of Misthart Tower’s employees are visionary, the rest are ordinary people simply having a job. There are six main departments within the Tower that handle various different jobs.
Sentinels are patrol agents that survey various areas of the city regularly. They are responsible for sounding the sirens when Muduos are sighted, and keeping track of the density of mist within the city’s borders. In addition to Muduo related affairs, sentinels also act as informants and undercover agents when investigating human crimes.
The Armament Department is the main security force for day to day life. They act as the police, military, and emergency services, with a focus on combat and rescue. This department has the second highest number of Visionaries employed, and has many members who are more specialized in man to man combat rather than against the Muduo.
The humble but crucial Logistics Department that is responsible for maintaining the supply chain and bureaucratic organization within Misthart Tower. They deal with the behind the scenes events as well as long term aftermath of Muduo attacks, such as evacuation, rebuilding, and support of victims and displaced citizens.
The Research Department is one full of brilliant minds that are attempting to learn about the Muduo as well as Visionaries, although that is but a small part of the department. Technology recovered from outside of the city’s mist is also analyzed here as many members attempt to piece together a more sustainable life for the growing population. They also manage many hospitals.
Special Tasks Forces are pulled together from various departments, sometimes even consisting of non-employees. They are notably specialized to deal with combat against the Muduo, with most members being Visionaries. But it is possible for a team to receive missions that pertain to other aspects as well, acting as the city’s contingency reserve.
The urban legend-like secret “department” of Misthart Tower known as “The Scavengers”. They dispose of Muduo corpses, often recovering the consumed remains from them. Although more often than not, the eyes are always missing due to a Muduo’s desire to absorb them. The members all wear masks and clothing that conceals their identity, hence not much about them being known.
