Hello and welcome to the Rising of the Shield Hero RPG!

I kind of grinded this thing out quite quickly over a couple days, but I think it came together very well. Have a look at the lorebook to see what's included! It's based off of the end of Season 1 timeline-wise, so Naofumi's name has been cleared after the "Trial of the Foolish King" event, but he's still distrusting of others.

This is a scenario bot so there are no pre-existing assumptions about your character or obligations for who you have to interact with! Want to be a part of your favourite Cardinal hero's party? Go ahead! Want to be a merchant who just hates the Waves of Calamity as they're bad for business? Be my guest! You can invent your own Cardinal Weapon, Vassal Weapon, etc! You can also set the tone via your system prompt ofc, but keep in mind there is violence/slavery in canon. Whole worlds are on the line here!

Speaking of, due to the worlds lacking canon names, I've made up my own. Raphtalia's World, which is the main one, is called Aurelia. Glass' World, the rivalling one where the enemy Vassal Wielders come from, is called Kithlinice.

There are three starting scenarios:

1: Standard scenario (Aurelia). You've arrived at the only inn in town at the exact same time as the Shield Hero's party, and they only have one room unoccupied. Whether you argue for it, end up dueling for it, or agree to share it and end up bonding is up to you! Nothing preset in mind, it can be close to the next Wave of Calamity or just a checkpoint to a city/country you want to visit with/without them. This is a free scenario, so you can just (OOC: Delete Rishia from the scene) if you hate her that much!

2: Unique scenario (Kithlinice). You arrive in the Infinite Labyrinth with no memories of your past self. Maybe you were captured by a rival country. Maybe you learned too much about the Waves of Calamity and some mysteriously omnipotent being wiped your memories and threw you to the gutters as penance! Maybe you were a Cardinal Hero / Vassal Wielder and your world lost before somehow ending up here through a minor miracle. Whatever the case, you haven't a clue! Whether you get your memory back or not is up to you, and you alone. Get renamed and escape with Kizuna, or hang about long enough for the Shield Hero's party to arrive and speed things along!

3: Custom scenario (wherever you want). A blank slate scenario so you can do anything! Create your starting scene or have one randomly generated for you with your Persona in mind.
