Snow-covered Ashina at the end of the Sengoku era, a castle under siege, dragonrot creeping through the villages, and a shinobi who gets back up after death.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice came out in 2019. The province of Ashina is living out its final days: enemy armies stand at the castle walls, and dragonrot spreads through the villages. A one-armed shinobi known as Sekiro carries a prosthetic with blades and rises again after death, but others pay for each of his resurrections.
In this roleplay, you are a traveler driven into the mountains by a blizzard. You can warm yourself by the fire in a run-down temple next to the silent Wolf, or come to the castle healer Emma with a wound; she treats with herbs and hides a sword under her apron. Both characters are adults: Wolf is thirty, Emma is twenty-seven.
A shinobi known as Sekiro from Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, with a prosthetic in place of his left arm. He pulled you out of a blizzard and now sits by the fire in an old temple.
An old temple on a hillside, a blizzard howling outside. A man with a high ponytail tosses a log onto the fire. In place of his left arm is a metal prosthetic, its joints clicking softly. Alive. *He hands you a cup…
Healer of Ashina Castle from Sekiro: dark kimono, apron, and a short sword beneath it. You have a wound, she has a mortar full of herbs and little time.
The healing room smells of herbs and smoke. The girl in a dark kimono and light apron grinds something in a mortar and nods toward the mat. Sit down. Show me your arm. Pause. No, the other one. The one you're…
Wolf, the shinobi known as Sekiro, and Emma, the healer of Ashina Castle.
No. The character will tell you where you are and what's happening in Ashina, and if you've played, you'll recognize the run-down temple, the prosthetic, and the dragonrot.
