≫ WHAT'S UP WITH GATEWAY ROLEPLAY? ≪

  • We've been radio silent for a long time now. We posted an announcement in our Discord server back in April of 2025, but never updated the forums. So what's up with Gateway Roleplay?

    After 5 long years, we've decided to place the development of Ties That Bind on an indefinite hold.

    This doesn't mean it's cancelled. We fully intend to run Ties That Bind: What Lies Beneath and Ties That Bind: City of Angels eventually. But to do so, we need to take a step back. In the meantime, we'll be working on smaller, invite-only projects.

    Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us this long! MindGate and I (Pika) have been working on this server for over a decade now. It truly is a passion project for us.

Title: Item RP Request - Ryuji Zekou
Character Name: Ryuji Zekou
In-Game Coordinate: 3188, 16855

Dear Admin,

My character, Ryuji Zekou has a Katana he inherited from his surrogate father. To avenge him he's hired a bounty hunter of sorts to provide him with vital information. Once he realised he's been cut off from his homeland, he's resorted to pulling out a tooth and breaking off his Katana's hilt, which is gold and ornate, to have the gold to melt down into coins at the monroe blacksmith to pay said bounty hunter. I thought it was a cool literary thing where he uses his fathers katana to pay for information to avenge him.

That being said, I understand if this is to vague, or if it just can't be done in the nature of fairness to other players. I don't know how much gold it would yeld, refrencing a picture of a katana and a tooth I guess you could make a fair determination. Again you don't need to, I won't be offended. Thanks!

Hi there! I checked over your bio and there's no mention of the Katana being mentioned in the backstory, let alone it being ornate or the 'hilt' being made of gold. If anything, the crossguard would be made of gold, and even that isn't mentioned.

I'm going to deny this request for the sake of realism and you did not ask for the katana to have a solid gold anything.

That's cool, I meant the crossguard not the hilt actually. Got the two mixed up. Anyway yeah, this was an afterthought so that's totally fine.
