−	'''Are mascots available?''' Yes! Animal-style mascots may exist as a NPC attached to a full PC, or applied for as separate characters. Waldian wildlife is similar to Europe's with modest differences. Examples range from completely normal birds, to frogs with jewels grown into their back. Avoid fantastic or supernatural forms; griffons, dragons, and so on generally don't exist on Waldia. Mascots have all the abilities their Earth equivalents would (bird mascots can fly, for example) but no magical abilities. All mascots are intelligent and can talk, though they are either extremely unusual for their kind (your dog mascot is probably the only dog ~~on Waldia~~ able to talk) or a genuinely unique creature.	+	'''Are mascots available?'''

-'''What School does the cast go to?''' - The vast majority of them attend Ohtori. It makes the most social sense, given GPR characters tend to be from wealthy noble families or find themselves elevated to such upon taking the Guardian Knights Oath. It is also the school most suited for the 'high drama' aspects of this theme. Therefore, heroic and villainous characters of school age should probably go to Ohtori Academy. If your character isn't enrolled in Ohtori, then they likely don't have a school at all.

If your character isn't enrolled in Ohtori, then they likely don't have a school at all. Villains bear further clarification. Humans who are too old for school probably shouldn't be there. Demons should effect some kind of magical disguise if they wish to attend school (it is a good opportunity to study their potential targets, so this isn't as ridiculous as it might seem at first).
-Steampunk, modern, and sci-fi weapons are generally banned. Firearms in general are also banned, even ones that might have existed in real-life feudal times. However, you might be able to make equivalents in some cases. If your character uses a wand that they want to hold like a firearm, simply give it a basic grip that enables this; nobody is going to have trouble with the wand curving such that it has a distinct handle. This gives the character a wand that fires energy or elemental blasts, but is vaguely gun-like. This is basically the best compromise available in the setting.
+'''Can I get more information on weapon design?''' - While most characters wield medieval weaponry supplemented by magic, there are some things that outright aren't allowed. On the other hand, creative use of magic can enable things you wouldn't normally expect. Steampunk, modern, and sci-fi weapons are generally banned. Firearms in general are also banned, even ones that might have existed in real-life feudal times. However, you might be able to make equivalents in some cases.

This gives the character a wand that fires energy or elemental blasts, but is vaguely gun-like. This is basically the best compromise available in the setting.
 Or let's say your character wants an equivalent to a real-world or sci-fi 'flashbang' that sprays disorienting light and sound over an area. A lightning user might have a special gem that can store their electrical magic, which they throw at the target. The jewel could then release this flash of light and thunder to achieve the same effect, followed by flying back to its owner's hand for later re-use. If you want an elemental or energy sword instead of a sword supplemented by magic, the character could have a small wand that shapes their element into a blade. The key is to take the concept and make it magical; part of something wondrous that character owns rather than something mundane they got off a store shelf. Should you be uncertain whether an idea is sufficiently 'magic', feel free to ask for input. These examples are very broad, and if your idea still works after some noun swapping (“fire” instead of “ice”, etc.) then it's probably okay.

 Obviously, people from Earth cannot be demons from this series. Someone from Earth could contract with one, but this would be infrequent and must be discussed before we allow the concept for application. Villains that manage to recruit someone from Earth are likely doing so only on a 'social' or employment basis, with no transfer of power involved (this is to avoid 'two power sources' theme issues).
