UNIQUE CONCEPT IDEAS .β¦ έΛ
note ; this is not roleplay, fictionkin, or delusion, though roleplayers, fictionkin, and delusional people are allowed to interact. this is irl magical heroing, astral projection, a spiritual practice, and is under the pop culture paganism / magick umbrella. please do not call me delusional, as this can cause me to doubt my experiences and reality, which can send me into psychosis.
" i dont care if im wrong . i just want to believe in people . "
the basic idea of this concept is that you are a jujutsu sorcerer (or curse user, if you'd like to be evil !!) who exorcises cursed spirits (or, in the case of a curse user, works with curses) to protect humanity (or, for curse users, for whatever their specific goal is).
cursed spirits are creatures made of negative energy who are invisible to the human eye. they can only be exorcised by using cursed energy, and are graded one to four based off of strength, sentience, and how much of a danger they are to normal humans. four is the weakest grade, and one is the strongest grade. there are also special grade cursed spirits, which are cursed spirits who dont fall into the four to one scale.
these gradings also apply to jujutsu sorcerers / curse users, cursed objects, and cursed tools.
cursed techniques are special abilities used to defeat cursed spirits (or battle curse users / jujutsu sorcerers). not everyone can use cursed techniques, and they are usually a part of you from the start, though there are other means of obtaining cursed techniques (like the techique copy, or in special cases like with yuji itadori and sukuna), and there are examples of sorcerers learning new techniques in the show.
" a sound soul dwells within a sound mind , and a sound body . "
while this concept does require two people working together (a weapon and a meister), i believe the potential outweighs the whole "cant do it on your own" part.
a meister is someone who wields and works with a weapon. they fight alongside them, helping their weapon with reaching the status of a "death scythe" while also protecting the world.
a weapon is someone who can transform into, well, a weapon. they have some level of control over their body while transformed, and fight alongside their meister.
a death scythe in canon is a weapon that lord death uses, but, if you'd rather not do that, you could also imagine reaching death scythe status as reaching an "utlimate strength" of sorts.
in soul eater, everyone has a soul, but some people have souls that are known as "kishin eggs". a kishin is an ultimate evil, a demonic god of sorts born from a human who has consumed many innocent souls. so, a kishin egg is someone who has begun to consume human souls, and is now at risk of becoming this ultimate evil. these kishin eggs must be found and killed, and weapons can then consume their souls, growing stronger (without a risk of becoming a kishin, because kishin's are only born from consuming human souls).
there are also witches, who have unique witch souls. witches can use a variety of forms of magic, and are generally the enemies of weapons and meisters due to their natural instinct to bring destruction and chaos.
" meddling where you dont need to be is the essence of being a hero ! "
each person is born with a quirk (well, almost every person,,, but sshhh that part of canon doesn't apply to this concept), and they use these powers to, well, be a hero ! whether you're fighting villains, saving people, stopping natural disasters, etc, its up to you ! or, maybe you're a villain yourself ?
now, if you dont already have something like a past life as an mha character, which would mean you'd probably get that quirk you had in that life, then your quirk is pretty much randomized, dont be scared though, im sure you'll get a good one and not be like those side characters with like,, stretchy eyeballs,,,, or some shit like that,,,,,,
overall, this concept is one of those "most of its up to you" types, so go crazy with what you do here !
" i will double my power and promise to not only abuse my power , but enjoy my power the whole time ! "
going on mystical, astral temp-jobs set in space to get paid. yep, we're getting employed with this one folks
now, obviously, since these jobs are in the astral, it might be hard to get paid with real money like in the show, so your payment is up to you ! could be mystical charms, mana potions, boosts or buffs to your power, or maybe you could find a way to manifest that completing a job will get you money in the physical world !
you are given jobs my tempbot, a giant, intelligent TV screen that will give you these temp-jobs, while some are dangerous, the pay will always be right for the danger level.
with each job, you'll get a special outfit, a weapon if needed, and instructions on what you are required to do. each job takes place in a different place in space, and once you finish the job, you get payment !
" they say that when an object is well loved it is eventually imbued with a soul , then what about the garbage, the trash that gets thrown away ? what is that imbued with ? "
when an object is loved, cherished, cared for, it gains a soul, and when an object is met with dislike, hate, even disgust, it, too, gains a soul.
trash, objects thrown away, all come together, forming trash beasts. trash beasts are extremely strong, can regenerate, and cannot be killed by conventional means, so, enter givers.
givers are people who have cherished objects and can bring out the full power of these objects, called vital instruments, using them as weapons or magical tools to defeat or help defeat trash beasts.
to be a giver, you must have an object you cherish and care for deeply, and the ability to bring out the full power of this object, also, your vital instrument may not always become a weapon, for example, remlin's vital instrument is a pen, passed down by the spellcasters before them, and this pen allows them to draw charms of many different kinds. this vital instrument cannot be used as a weapon, rather mostly being used for protection charms.
NO. 6 - KPOP DEMON HUNTERS
" this monster inside me . . . what if its not a curse ? what if its just . . . me ? "
using your voice to keep the honmoon strong, the barrier between humans and demons. demons hunt humans, absorbing their life force, and as a demon hunter, its your responsibility to hunt them down while also keeping the honmoon strong.
while fighting demons is pretty simple: just fight them astrally with whatever weapon you have, the singing and upkeep of the honmoon part isn't as simple.
the honmoon is strengthened by singing, by the hope instilled in people when they hear that singing, and so, apart of keeping the honmoon strong is by singing to people. also, a part of being a demon hunter is protecting your fans, as the demons will target your fans.
NO. 7 - WITCH HAT ATELIER
" take it from me , little witch . any soul out there who tries to restrict the things you learn is only doing it to keep you square under their thumb . "
witches are people who cast magic by drawing runes, and apart opf their duty as witches, besides helping humanity, is to keep the truth of magic a secret.
witch hat atelier is one of those concepts that definitely could be applied to the physical realm because of the simplicity of it, and its a concept that doesn't really have a specific enemy. its up to you to decide what you do !
" enemies are enemies... we're only using them . "
devil's are manifestations of humanities fears, the more feared that idea is, the stronger the devil of that fear is. for example, most people dont fear butterflies, right ? so a butterfly devil is quite weak and small, but a nuclear bomb ? thats terrifying, and so a nuclear bomb devil would be extremely powerful.
as a devil hunter, your duty would be to find and kill these devils so that they cannot cause more harm to humanity. a part of this also involves sometimes deciding to use the powers of devil's themselves in a contract.
in chainsaw man, a contract is a binding agreement between a devil and a human, that allows the human to use the devil's abilities in exchange for something that benefits the devil in the form of a sacrifice. this sacrifice can be body parts, lifespan, a loved one, a cherished thing, really what is sacrificed depends on what the devil wants. for example, one of aki's contracts is with the future devil, who all he requested is to live inside aki's right eye, while himeno's contract with the ghost devil required her to give up parts of herself each time she used the ability, which eventually ended in her giving up her entire body, ending her life.
so, choosing the right contract is extremely important if you decide to go down that route. of course, you dont *need* a contract, especially if you already have abilities for combat.
some devil hunters are also fiends. fiends are devil's who have taken over human or animal bodies to survive, and an example of a fiend is power, the blood devil, who lives inside the body of a girl who was implied to have been murdered in the forest.
overall, this is definetly one of the more dangerous concepts to choose, ebcause of the nature of devils, contracts, etc, so think about it before deciding to use this concept !
" set your heart ablaze . "
demons and demon hunters, using and mastering breathing techniques as to take them down.
now, obviously, demons wont work exactly like they do in the show. in this world, they'll exist within the astral, as monsters that feed off the life-force of humans, and it would be your duty to hunt and take them down !
" i wanna be the very best , like no one ever was ! "
credit to @aerodis for the idea ! they also have a google doc for this concept :)
the concept is simple and can really be edited to your exact wants and needs. the basic idea is that you catch and battle with pokemon !
to get your starter pokemon, there are two ways: either asking for it from a legendary or mythical pokemon, one that will help guide you on your journey after you get your starter (in this concept, legendaries and mythicals are considered gods / deities, so its VERY unlikely you will have one of them on your team), or by finding and catching your starter yourself !
you can have pretty much any pokemon as your starter (as long as they aren't a legendary, mythical, ultra beast unless you like. know how to get into ultra space, etc), and to catch pokemon, you can either do it astrally or physically !
thanks for reading, and i hope this helped give you some ideas !!! :D
