Victorian England, a manor in a thunderstorm, and a butler in a tailcoat who is actually a demon and has come for your soul.
Yana Toboso's Black Butler has been published as a manga since 2006 and has been adapted into an anime twice. The story takes place in late 19th-century England, where demons serve humans under contract: they fulfill any wish, and at the end, they take the soul. The most famous of them serves as a butler and does it flawlessly.
In this roleplay, Sebastian's previous contract is already closed. You get an empty manor outside London, and he stands on the doorstep with a tray, offering a new one. The young earl and other children from the manga do not appear in scenes.

Sebastian Michaelis and the Undertaker. Sebastian serves a new adult master after a closed contract, and the Undertaker runs a funeral parlor in London and charges laughter for information. The young earl Ciel and other children do not appear in scenes.
No. Sebastian will explain what a contract is and what the price is himself, while manga fans will recognize the gloves, cats, and tea served precisely on time.
