Well, it appears that another month has passed and it looks like our numbers have reached another record high. I'm very happy for all the visitors this website gets, even if they don't make an account or post. I see we got one new member by the name of Jet. And he managed to make an introduction posts. I greatly appreciated this. As to anyone else that's lingering on the forums, thank you. I still appreciate the traffic even if you stay silent. This RP is stil lvery active. Just make sure to post, I post every day.

I think our stats on these topsites are amazing but, if we had an active community, this will automatically become the number #1 spot for roleplaying on the internet. We're going to work hard to keep this ship up and running.

Looks like we have a new member!

Welcome to the community, Jet! My name is Jamal and I am the admin of this forum. I greatly appreciate you joining this forum and yes, the forum is quite dead for now but, if everything goes well, I suspect that we will have plenty of new members and that we will get back up to speed in no time.

Thank you for taking your time to register for our forums, we greatly appreciate it! If you have any questions, feel free to ask away.

It has been quite some time since I last roleplayed on a forum... Lets see if I still know how to do this.


I am aware this is a dying breed of roleplay and expect that it will not be populous for some time, however I am curious to see who will flock to this medium.

So with that all said...

Greetings, all!

Just to make a record as things over time can change. These are our current ranks and records across the internet. I don't know who visits our sites but, so far, we are doing pretty well since I am primarily the person voting every day and week. To anyone that contributes, thank you, I greatly appreciated this. I would really like to get into roleplaying soon but, a lot of my time has been consumed finishing my 3D MMORPG, Virtual Monsters RPG.

Soon, I will be getting some quality roleplaying and web design done. Usually, when I am web designing, I am more active in my browser and spend a lot of time posting to different parts of the internet. I greatly appreciate any guests that may be lurking or stalking the forums from time to time. I greatly appreciate this.

To everyone that supports us, thank you. It's been a pleasure serving you.

#13 on Top100 Arena

Hello everyone! This is the admin here to give you guys an update. I know I haven't updated the site in a long time but, this site is most likely going to get a make over very soon after I finished my 3d monster collecting MMORPG, Virtual Monsters RPG. Currently, we have received 13th place on a rpg voting topsite called Top100 Arena. I am thankful for everyone that visits the site and gives us a vote. I wanted to give out special rewards for people who vote for us every month but, I decided to make this RPG different from what it was before. I am still going to put a lot of work into this RP but, I decided to continue working on my indie MMORPG and once that game is finished, I will put my maximum effort into finishing all of my other side projects. Thank you to everyone for their patience. Go ahead and give us a response to let us know if you're still interested in this project.

I see you have custom jutsu. You will need to make a separate application for your custom jutsu. Same goes for the weapons in your inventory. You also need a separate application for your Bloodline.

Also, you need to pick a faction. Even if you choose to be factionless, you should choose to be apart of the Syndicate. Since this is your first character, you have to start as a Student.

Your Country of Origin needs to be one of the five nations currently available. This includes the Land of Birds, the Land of Dogs, the Land of Monkeys, the Land of Dragons or the Land of Tigers. There will be more available later.

Please read the instructions set in the template as it will give you most of the information necessary for completing the template.

I also forgot to mention that your character cannot start at a Power Rank of A and your Current Residence has to be an actual place within the world of Shinobu.

Also, if your character doesn't come from any notable clan, just put None. Use the Clan NPCs as examples: https://shinobu.mw-industries.com/index.php/topic,113.0.html

As for your class, you can choose to be a Monk. As of right now, there are no mage hybrid classes.

Registration Desk / Hoshino Renji
Last post by Muse - Jun 15, 2025, 10:23 PM


Hoshino Renji[/SIZE]

Gender: Male 
Age: 32 
Birthday: Late Winter 
NPCs: None Yet

Basic Information[/SIZE]

Skin Color: Light Chestnut Brown 
Eye Color: Purple 
Hair Color: Purple 
Height: 6'2" 
Weight: 220 lbs

Apperance
Renji is a slightly chubby but well-muscled man, clearly strong despite his fuller build. His medium-length, spiky purple hair gives him a wild but deliberate look, always appearing like he just walked out of a storm. His posture is relaxed yet confident, often seen with hands in his pockets or arms crossed. His attire favors practicality and quiet flair, usually sporting reinforced clothing with minimalist design.

Personality
Renji is introspective and analytical, someone who speaks when it matters and watches everything when it does not. He carries a quiet intensity, rarely showing strong emotion unless the situation calls for it. Trust does not come easily, but loyalty, once earned, is immovable. He challenges hierarchy and convention with subtle defiance, preferring reason over tradition.

Geographical Information[/SIZE]

Country of Origin: A small, nondescript village nestled in an unremarkable mountain range, known only for its deep-rooted ties to a secluded local temple. 
Current Residence: Nomadic. Hoshino Renji is presently traveling to experience life beyond the boundaries of his isolated upbringing. 
Class: Monk-Mage Hybrid 
Faction: Factionless 
Faction Rank: Non-Applicable

Backstory
Born in a quiet mountain village bound to a hidden temple, Renji grew up steeped in both spiritual practice and subtle arcane traditions. His natural talent for magic was nurtured not with ambition, but with reverence and restraint. Despite his calm demeanor, he always felt the world beyond the ridges tugging at his spirit. After years of self-discipline and service, he left his village to walk the wider world, hoping to understand its chaos, complexity, and contradiction. He remains a seeker—of truth, balance, and the deeper nature of power.

Combat Abilities[/SIZE]

Power Rank: A-Rank 
Clan: Independent Lineage 
Bloodline Magic/Inner Demon
Renji carries the ancestral Hoshino trait—a dormant spirit born into each clan member, known to grow stronger as the host channels emotions into it. The spirit evolves in resonance with dominant feelings, gradually shaping both personality and power. While it can grant great strength or healing, the danger lies in imbalance: a spirit of serenity may render its host completely detached from reality, while one of rage may consume them entirely. Each Hoshino walks a tightrope between mastery and surrender. Though unproven, the origin of this phenomenon is believed to stem from ancient ties to the Fae.

Special Affinity:  
Mastered Affinities:

    • Temporarily amplifies Renji's physical power and agility by syncing his movements with his inner spirit.

June Update 2025


Hello everyone! It is Codemaster Jamal, the general admin of the site! I am glad to be speaking to all of you. I am deeply sorry for my inactivity on the website. I stopped updating the website but, I will be getting back to updating the site due to popular demand. Currently, I am very busy with YouTube and working on other projects that are apart of my company MW Industries - Game Development and Software. This includes my 3d monster collecting MMORPG, Virtual Monsters and my collectible trading card game, Tales of Amedaria.

This is also great news for all of us because, completing these projects will help bring activity to our websites and thus boost the overall activity for our sites in whole. This will give people more time and space to explore the website and will give people a reason to come back to our sites and visit us again. Of course, a lot of those people won't necessarily be into text-based roleplaying but, this site might bring an interest in it to them. Don't give up hope. I'll also go back to posting on the site and will eventually begin to create my own personal characters. We have a lot of space to work with in terms of fantasy and storytelling. For the most part, the world of Shinobu is made for the community to build with in-depth stories.

I have a lot of idea's for events and plots for the site. More importantly, I plan to get back into roleplaying once my games are finished. Currently, I'm not entirely motivated to RP. Roleplaying takes a mindset and more importantly, you need the right environment to get into creative writing. You can't force it. You have to let it flow it. Take your time with it. Which is why, many things on the site has come to a slow crawl. Trust me, we will get back to reviving the site. Thank you to everyone who has participated on the site. We will continue to build the site with you. Expect updates later on in the year. Preferably some time after August.

To everyone reading this message, thank you. I won't be taking this site down anytime soon and I expect to build a great community with you.
