Desire [SU/D]

[Gaige]

For a world to start anew, the old world must break, shatter and reform. So thought the people that did this, anyway. The people that broke the world before its time. Some did it to see what would happen. Others did it to bring their own beliefs to the fore, and mold an infant world to their liking.

Catastrophe can bring people together, or it can tear them apart. In this case, it did both to different people, as people began to influence the world around them, and with the world, the people who inhabited it. The people so infinitely different from one another, with different ideals, different powers, and different minds. Some fell before the ideals of others. After all, strength of body and mind was needed to forge the world anew.

Apparently, only one ideal came to pass, striking down the others, talking them out, or fusing their ideals with itself. And that was how the world came to be as it was today.

But it's only a matter of time until someone craves change. The world will fall yet again in the endless cycle of life, death and life again.

It is then that you, man or woman, adult or child; a child of God and Lucifer, of good and evil, of sin and regret, of earth and fire, will have to forge your ideals anew. Or you'll never survive. To make the world yours, you must nurture it, make your decisions, break your barriers, and start anew. Hesitation means only death or failure.

From the scripture of -_ ----____--___(The blur of nature prevents you from reading any more.)
________________________________________________
Demons

At a point early in the RP, you will acquire a single demon to use, which you may take from mythology or acquire from scratch. This may be any figure that is not from Judeo-Christian lore, which will be explained in another section. There MIGHT be an exception to this rule, but you'll have to give me a damn good reason to make it so.

Demons will have both a dormant or passive state, be it as an accessory, such as a hairclip, a cell phone, etc, or even just nonexistent. They will also have an active form, which is the form they can take when directly summoned by their owner.

Remember that summoning demons will cost your character a significant amount of strength. You're literally drawing something otherworldly into another dimension with nothing but your own strength. It's gonna tire your character out.

To start with, please remember that you're gonna have one demon, and one only. Having a practical army of demons from the beginning makes you overpowered, and ruins the fun for everyone else. As well as that, they and you will start off weak. You from inexperience, the demon from being pulled into another universe.
___________________________________________
Angels/Fallen Angels

Angels tend to be (but aren't always) a force of good, representing God, compassion, and tolerance. As angels are often seen as celestial beings, please please pleeeeeease, don't take them for your starter, as you'll just be denied. If you make certain decisions in this RP, angels will become accessible to you, but for the time being, please leave them as NPCs.
____________________________________________
Character Development

You all might have an idea as to what your characters will be, and you're free to make that so. But please do it through development and don't have your character that way from the start. Let NPCs, other characters, and the events I give you all to work with mold your character into what you want them to be. It's more fun for me, others and yourself. This isn't a rule so much as advice.
_____________________________________________
NPCs

NPCs, or non playable characters, are characters I will exclusively be controlling for the purpose of plot and character development. These are inspired by Devil Survivor, where decisions you make will decide what happens to who, whether they will be friend or enemy, live or die. Since I'll be acting as a gamemaster rather than immersing a single character int he story, I'll decide what each NPC does and where they do it.
______________________________________________
Starting Locations

This is where your character starts his/her journey in the fictional city (which I haven't named yet >.>) There are a total of eight starting positions, and this decides who your characters meet first.

Central District

The industrial center of the city, this is where the majority of factories and mechanical workshops are situated. The stench of smoke constantly permeates the air.

Residential District

Full of apartments and terraced houses, this is where most people live. Less than ten minutes away from both the industrial and shopping districts, this is the place to live if you're rich, lucky, or sly enough to get a place.

Suburbia

Where people who don't have quite as much money, or just want a quieter existence live. With neat lawns, flowers, and perfectly white houses, everything looks more natural in Suburbia. Half an hour away from the shopping district. An hour away from the industrial district

Shopping District

This is where the majority of shops are in the city, with huge, multifloor shopping malls reaching into the clouds, as well as smaller, cheaper, family owned businesses. Rich or poor, this is the place everyone shops. A church is also present on the outskirts of this district.

Mother HQ

The headquarters of the enigmatic Mother group, who often speak of loving the earth and how Gaia has not been appreciated recently, and that that must change for anything to proceed. Also the procurers of herbal remedies and natural cures. (Note: You may not start as a member of Mother, but may become one over the course of the RP.)

Soulsavers HQ

The headquarters of the religious Soulsavers group, who often speak of loving the divine, appreciating what we cannot see, and believing in a force greater than ourselves. (Note: You may not start a member of the Soulsavers, but may become one over the course of the RP.

Sublime Park

A place of nature on the outskirts of the city, where birds and the other sounds of nature can constantly be heard. Possibly the only place in the city where the stench, sights, or sounds of the Industrial District are not present.

Emergency District.
Branching from the Industrial District, Residential District and Shopping District, and just on the outskirts of Suburbia is the Emergency District, where Scarlet Police Station and Sacred Heart Hospital can be found, as well as the local fire station.
_______________________________________
Elements

Physical

The power to inflict brute physical damage upon their enemies, those who wield physical power are limited to close range attacks for the most part, but hit hard when they get close.

Fire

The power to generate fire around to you to raze your surroundings, generate blistering explosions and create barriers and obstructions, fire is mainly offensive in nature.

Water and Ice

The power to invoke the power of water and ice as an offensive and defensive force. Whether it's flood and spear or barrier and diversion, water and ice are a force to be reckoned with.

Electricity

The power to deliver precision strikes with sizzling bolts of electricity, as well as generate long lasting force fields and charge objects for new uses, electricity users have versatility on their side, and are only limited by their imaginations.

Air

With the power to call forth storms and control the winds, those with power over the air tend to be able to take flight and move quickly, making for a truly formidable foe.

Earth

The earth itself bends to the will of those who specialize in this element, allowing them to rend the earth, command plants, and invoke a small amount of healing energy, making an earth specialist a great asset.

Psy

With the ability to control their surroundings simply with their mind, the power of thought is truly a force to fear when those with this power have it under their control. Telekinesis, telepathy and psychokinesis are the powers of this force.

Mind

With the power to hypnotize, generate illusions, and psychologically break their targets, those with the power of Mind operate differently from those with the power of Psy, being able to intrude on minds and rewrite them as they wish.

Support

With the power to heal and strengthen who they wish, those who gain support abilities pay with immobility; they are sealed within a crystalline bubble while they cast their magic, and so directly open to attack.

Light

Under the sole command of the angels, nothing is known of this element at the moment

Darkness

Under the sole command of only the most powerful demons, nothing is currently known of this element.

Rules

Godmodding, powerplaying and metagaming. Not gonna happen in this RP or you'll get a visit from an NPC who'll put you on the receiving end of said tactics.

Please remember that this RP will present figures from mythology and religion in a less conventional and more controversial light. If you're religiously sensitive, it might be best not to join.

Disagreements between members as to who wins and who loses in a conflict WILL be dealt with by a coin toss should it escalate.

If you dislike someone or feel oppressed by someone in the RP, try and talk it out with them. If you can't, take it to me or Terrible Terry Tate.

[Rorolina Frixell]

Name: Josh Harvey
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Starting Location: Suburbia

Appearance: Has short light brown hair and light green eyes, bar a slight bit of acne on his cheeks his face is relatively unblemished. He stands at 6"4 and weighs 170 lbs, he wears a black short sleeved shirt with a windproof long sleeved jumper over it, on his legs he wears baggy green combat trousers and white trainers.

Personality: Quite the typical city kid, causing more trouble than he solves from his misadventures, preferring to run around and enjoy himself rather than get serious and try to get a decent job. With his parents normally at Mother, he's left to his own devices the majority of the day which is how he prefers it. With no authority to discipline him he sees no reason to settle down and be successful. That aside, like any other teenage boy he becomes (or at least tries to, somewhat badly) more charming when an attractive woman appears, normally leaving her creeped out or outright annoyed more times than not.

Contracted Demon: Jack Frost

History: While growing up as a child Josh was always with his parents and life was happy yet simple for those years though when Josh was about to enter the teenage years his parents entered into the Mother HQ, leaving him to fend for himself the majority of the time. Due to the timing of this he was left to his own devices making him grow up into a bit of a brat and niusance to the people he encountered so they discarded him as a hoodlum.

While his parents were still there, their presence was a relatively brief one leading to him not bonding well with them over those years. While he didn't dislike them, they simply became near strangers to him, discarding them as no longer important people in his life, the general lack of discipline over those years turning him into an average brat who acts half his age sometimes.

Demon
Name: Jack Frost
Age: Unknown (if he has one, let me know )
Gender: Male

Appearance: To put him down simply, he's a walking talking snowman with big blue eyes and fanged teeth, has a fairly 'poofy' appearance making him rather soft looking. On his head he wears an eared hat of blue. He has no fingers, instead he has boxing glove shaped hands and wears little blue shoes on his feet.

Personality: A fun loving little demon, prefers not to take things seriously and just take life easy. Enjoys the company of friends and takes it quite personally when one is hurt, even by another. Has a unique calling that often slips out in every sentence 'Hee-ho!', he also has a preference to playing over fighting however, making it a better friend than a bodyguard.

Elemental Affinity: Ice dominantly, some physical

 

[Martel]

Hope these are alright...I've never played twins before. xD

Name: Sapphire Williams
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Starting Location: Suburbia
Appearance: Sapphire is 5’7” in height, and is slim in the manner of a teenager who has just gone through a growth spurt and hasn’t quite had time to fill out yet, although she has a dancer’s grace when she moves. She has delicate, doll-like features; a thin and perfectly straight nose, navy blue eyes with all the warmth and life of a blizzard, and a mouth that seems to always be set in either a frown or a thin line. She has waist-length straight dark brown hair, which she keeps tied back in a ponytail with a black clip. Sapphire’s clothing is reserved and not particularly imaginative – black, tight jeans, half-calf length boots with no heels, a plain black sleeveless top with a few yellow flakes of what was once a faded logo, and a navy blue cotton coat slightly shorter than a trench coat, stopping a few inches below the hip. Sapphire wears no jewellery, and does not carry a handbag, carrying her wallet (which has some loose change, an old photograph of her parents and a more recent one of her with her twin sister, and a few cards) in a back-pocket of her jeans instead. She does not carry any other personal belongings.

Personality: Sapphire is not a very approachable person, and does not invite conversation. Whilst she does not project open hostility towards others, she is so cold towards others that attempts at conversation are quickly given up, especially given how approachable her twin is. Sapphire has no particular desire to interact with others, not even her twin sister – she is extremely introverted and somewhat a sociopath, and has no particular interest in anything…at least, nothing that she cares to reveal. She operates under a “live and let live” style of life, perfectly content to let other people get on with their business, whilst she gets on with hers. She possesses a seemingly infinite level of self-control, and has not lost her temper or even shown so much as a flicker of irritation in years…or anything else, for that matter.

She is patient, both with her twin and others and, whilst she will not offer her opinion or even her help unless it is asked for, she will help others to the best of her ability when prompted, although she prefers to explain things and allow others to take the initiative, rather than do things for them. Sapphire is not a leader, or even a follower – she is but an observer, for things do not really affect her unless she chooses to allow them to, which she rarely does. Whether others see her as a bland, uninteresting drone or a mystery just waiting to be unlocked, she does not really care.

The only permanent fixture in her life is her twin sister; other people come and go. She allows her twin to follow her, because it is not her business what she does with her life, and it does not matter either way, for she is not exactly interfering with Sapphire’s own chosen way of living, but she does not lead her or order her around, despite that being exactly what she seeks. For reasons she has never revealed, Sapphire takes care of and supports her twin when she needs it, encouraging her to become her own person, but never opening up to her or doing things for her that she could do herself. She refuses to allow other people to rely on her, to shoulder the responsibility that comes with it – whilst she is more than capable of leading, she simply does not care to.

Sapphire sees herself as a realist and, whilst she is not religious or spiritual, she does have a strong sense of morality which she will not deviate from, regardless of how it may affect others. Her thoughts guide her actions, and not the other way around. She believes in the power of the individual, that people should discover for themselves who they are, and then act upon it, and not rely upon others to find out for them. She has no need or desire for others in her life and, whilst she will tolerate them, she will not accept them as a part of her life, regardless of who they may be or how long they stay around her.

Contracted Demon: Beelzebub
History: Sapphire and her twin sister, Erika, were born a week earlier than anticipated, with Sapphire being born forty-eight seconds after Erika. Despite being a little early, it was not a particularly complicated birth. Both parents were overjoyed at their new baby girls, and offered them both love and support as they grew older, never treating them as though they expected them to be exactly the same (asides from those horrendously cute matching baby outfits, naturally) or favour one over the other.

Despite the fact that there were only forty-eight seconds between their birth, and that they were loved equally by their parents, Sapphire developed an inferiority complex as they grew older, deferring to her sister in all matters, allowing Erika to take the initiative…which she did. Erika was outgoing, adventurous and, whilst not bossy, authoritarian. She was quite happy to take the lead and, whilst she discarded the depth of her sister’s dependency on her, she was always there for her when she needed her. She enjoyed the feeling of being depended on, and began to seek that from others, as well. Their life at school and growing up was rather uneventful – Erika made friends with almost everyone around her, and the friendships she made extended to Sapphire as well, although she was far more shy and remote than her sister was, and never really said anything except for when they were alone. Their parents were not overly concerned about Sapphire’s behaviour, figuring that she would eventually decide that she did not want to do what her sister wanted to, and Erika was their little treasure; she was popular, hardworking, and always optimistic.

As they grew older, their roles reversed. Sapphire began to drift away from Erika as she discovered herself and began exploring her options, no longer requiring her sister to be with her every hour of the day, whilst Erika, realising that her sister was drifting away from her, clung to her, seeking to recapture something of their old relationship, which she had always taken for granted before. By the time she noticed, however, Sapphire had become entirely independent, and had developed a sufficient level of self-confidence to be by herself…although Erika refused to give up, believe she could still restore the bond that had existed between them, which she had ignored up to that point. Sapphire had decided who she wanted to be and what she wanted to do with her life, whilst Erika hadn’t even considered this.

The years passed, and Sapphire became more remote, simply doing things at her own pace, never making friends, or doing anything other than what she cared to do. The more remote she became, the more Erika clung to her, desire developing, becoming obsession, becoming worship. Sapphire moved out of their parent’s house to be her own woman when she was sixteen, and Erika, unable to bear being parted from her sister, went with her. Sapphire simply allowed her sister to follow her, saying nothing. The two have lived in the Suburbia section of the city for almost eight months now, and life has been unremarkable up to this point. One morning, they awaken to find an ornamental fly hairclip nestled snugly between them…

OST:
An Empty Shell [main theme]
Mistress of Justice [battle theme]


Name: Erika Williams
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Starting Location: Suburbia
Appearance: Erika is identical to her twin sister in appearance, right down to the clothes she wears. However, it is very easy to tell her apart from her younger sister by her facial expressions alone – she lacks her sister’s grace, and the lines that have already etched their way onto her sister’s face from where she is always frowning. Her eyes are much warmer, but also betray a need for companionship, someone she can depend upon, and nothing in the way of self-confidence. She is also quick to laugh, something her sister never does. Erika wears Beelzebub’s dormant form in her hair in place of a clip, tying it back, although not quite so severely or completely then her sister does. Her hair is also a slightly lighter shade of brown, more of a hazelnut colour, and she has a slightly curvier figure than her sister does.

Personality: Erika is as day to her twin sister’s night. Where her sister is remote and cold, Erika is quick to laugh and very easy to approach and talk to. She is optimistic and trusting to a fault and very naïve as a result. She accepts what people tell her at face value, although she is forever questioning, so she can see through a person’s automatic defences and find out who they really are.

Erika is adventurous, and makes friends extremely quickly, letting people in with ease, and then clinging to them for support. She has been described as a “social parasite” and the term fits her rather well – she is entirely dependent upon other people for her happiness, and her moods change with those around her instinctively, so that she might draw them closer to her and understand them.

Erika does not lead people, but she keeps them together, binding them to her and, through her, to each other. She is extremely self-conscious, and cannot stand being disliked. She will go to almost any lengths to please people, her sister most of all.
Erika’s devotion to her sister, Sapphire, is perhaps her defining trait. She does not just love her sister platonically; she worships her as though she were a Goddess. She follows her everywhere and, whilst she cannot imitate her personality, she mimics her in every way she possibly can, defers to her in every matter, and will do absolutely anything to please her. Her primary goal in life is to get her twin sister to open up to her, to love her back, and she will go to any and all lengths to accomplish this. She considers them as two halves of the same person, and will not abide being separated from her sister for even five minutes. She clings to her desperately, despite her sister’s seeming indifference to her affection. She feels as though her sister is the only one who can understand her, and vice versa, for they are, despite their apparent differences, the same person.

Contracted Demon: Beelzebub
History: See Sapphire’s history.

OST:
Lady of the Flies [pre/post battle theme]
Queen of the Flies [battle theme]

Name: Beelzebub
Age: N/A
Gender: Male
Appearance
Dormant: Beelzebub’s dormant state is a small, jewelled fly that functions as a hairclip, with the body being decoration, and the legs being used to hold the hair in place. The eyes appear to be made of sapphires, and the body is a silver colour.
Awakened: A larger version of the hairclip, this is the summoned form of Beelzebub, which attaches itself in the centre of the chest of its target, legs sinking into flesh to grasp the summoner’s heart, allowing it to draw upon the summoner’s energy.
True Form: Beelzebub’s true form is that of a tall, elderly man in a bottle green suit, skeletal and rotting. He has unnaturally long-fingered hands, and a long, thin face, skin a deathly grey colour. His mouth is lipless, and his eyes are entirely black, with vertical white slits. Flies crawl all over him, emerging periodically from the folds of his jacket or shirt (or even his ears and nostrils) only to vanish again moments later. He has a small, wispy goatee, which he is forever twirling around one finger in thought, and an antique cane with a likeness of his awakened form, a large fly, engraved in gold upon it.

Personality: Beelzebub is very polite and proper, addressing people respectfully and always answering questions asked of him honestly – although he never elaborates, or goes out of his way to offer advice. He takes every command given to the word, and enjoys being contradictory and pedantic, and will speak in rhymes or riddles unless ordered not to…and even then, he will return to his normal pattern of speech the next time he is spoken to unless ordered never to again…something that most people never think of doing. In order to get Beelzebub to do anything, you need to tell him EXACTLY what it is you want him to do, and leave absolutely no room for interpretation, which is not particularly easy to do. Whilst he will never lie, he will never tell the entire truth either, and will often leave out something of vital importance, dismissing it on the grounds of a triviality – try and get everything out of him and he will talk for hours, going off on any and every tangent he can think of. He delights in seeing people – particularly those who would seek to use his power - squirm and suffer, although he will never openly admit this, preferring to maintain the guise of a gentleman and put any and all of his actions down to necessity. Whilst he has no control over the flies he produces, he likes to make sure the process is as uncomfortable as he can possible make it, which is also why he attaches himself to his victim’s chest, over their heart – he could quite easily draw upon his master’s energies without such methods. He secretly loathes being made into a servant, and makes those who dare suffer as much as he is capable of. However, he loves a good fight, and will put all of his effort into ensuring his master triumphs. After all, he could always end up with a worse master the next time, and anything is better than Hell. It isn’t much fun down there.

Elemental Affinity: Physical, Psy
Beelzebub grants the summoner the ability to produce and control flies. After attaching himself to the summoner’s chest and tapping into their life energy, he can then draw upon this energy to produce flies in their thousands, at relatively little cost to the summoner’s energy, leaving them free to control them as they see fit. Since the flies were created from the summoner’s energy, they are bound to the summoner’s mind as though they were a hive, and react instinctively to the summoner’s subconscious thoughts and direct commands.

As you would expect, individually these flies are extremely weak, and easy to kill. Together, however, they are damn near impossible to kill. As a solid mass they provide a near impenetrable defence and an extremely powerful offense, able to block anything shy of the highest level of attack and cut through most things, massing together to create swords, lances, or even something larger if there are enough of them and the summoner is strong enough. As a collective, the flies are extremely powerful, and the only limit to what they can do is the summoner’s own abilities and imagination. They can also add to their numbers themselves by devouring organic matter, laying eggs that hatch and mature rapidly, adding to their strength and the summoner’s. The flies do not have any special abilities of their own, though – they can dissipate and even absorb attacks if they are massed together, create shockwaves by rubbing their wings together simultaneously, and even conjure up whirlwinds, but there needs to be hundreds of thousands or even millions of them to accomplish anything that will have a large impact.

Even if Beelzebub is not directly attached to the summoner, he can still draw upon their life to create a few flies, which can act as scouts and spies, or even as scavengers, laying eggs in organic matter which will remain dormant until such time that the summoner has a need of them. There is the risk, however, of these eggs hatching naturally beforehand.

The numbers add up, but it goes both ways. The second control is lost, the flies will either scatter or vanish– they’re not insects that tend to function as a community, and those that draw upon the summoner’s life energy are dependent upon that energy for life. Once the connection to the mind is broken, they are effectively little more than shells of energy, and will simply cease to exist. The psychic link between the flies and the summoner works both ways, as well – if too many of the summoner’s flies are killed at once, they’re going to know about it, and if they are all wiped out at once, the resulting backlash could very well kill them. The level of control also depends on the summoner’s mental abilities. Controlling a hundred-thousand or so flies to do your bidding is no great challenge even for the weakest of minds, but to give an opponent pause AND successfully block attacks, millions are needed, which tax both the physical and mental reserves of the summoner, especially if there is no organic matter that existing flies can use for procreation.

I'll write Sammael's bio over the next few days...probably tomorrow. xD

She loved to work with teams and help those younger than she is. She always pushed herself to perform her best at all times and tried to instill this facet to the kids she tried to coach.

After Lucia graduated college, she moved to (insert city name here) where she opened up a Dance Hall so that she can teach little kids how to dance. However, just before her new Hall opened, she found a mysterious Bow and a Quiver of oddly shaped Arrows.

(Will Finish...Hopefully)

 

[Abstract Debauchery]

Name:

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Starting Location: Residential District

Appearance:

Alyss stands in at approximately 5,6. She isn’t very tall, but not short. Her eyes are a mid range green. He hair is red, almost in the same shade as blood. It is also very long. More often than not, her bangs are in front of her eyes, keeping them covered. She wears a white band in her hair, so that it’s not flying everywhere on a windy day.

She dresses rather formally for an 18 year old, and more formally than most adults that she meets. She is often seen in a white button down blouse, with a red tie around her collar, the sleeves of which go to her forearm, just past the elbow. She wears a white shirt underneath as well. She often wears huge baggy pants; much like Samurai of ancient times wore. They are often mistaken as a long skirt. For shoes, she wears dark colored light shoes. Not only does she find them extremely comfortable, they’re good for a quick getaway, and as no one can see her feet, they can never tell if she’s wearing shoes made for running or not.

She also wears a pair of black, thin rimmed glasses, as she has trouble seeing without them.

Personality: Alyss is somewhat shy when dealing with new people. She never knows exactly what to say, but she is able to manage… typically. She doesn’t enjoy taking crap from anyone, but is more often than not, too afraid to fight back. Her small frame being more than enough to make her fear that, logically, she couldn’t hurt anyone without some sort of weapon.

She is polite (to those she knows), and tends to talk a big game. She holds herself highly, more so than anyone else. You’ll very rarely catch her using words with apostrophes. She has a certain way of talking that makes others believe that she’s belittling them, and they’re all right. However, at times her shyness will catch her off guard, and she starts to second guess herself. While she doesn’t enjoy meeting new people, and will mostly be very quiet around them, once she gets to know someone, she’ll open up. Most find that they won’t like her due to how she holds herself. She’s brutally honest and blunt with her friends, and even her enemies.

Once someone has gotten to know her, and she is no longer shy, she’s very arrogant, yet childish. She always has to be the best, and always has to be right. Her major flaw is her inferiority complex. She can’t stand being below someone, or being seen as inferior, as it is her greatest fear. She never wants to be useless, so she always tries to help, even if it is just a plot to get them to see her as useful.

She tends to think very logically, with emotion taking a permanent back seat to logic. As the story progresses, she starts to be less cold-hearted, and more sympathetic. However, she doesn’t enjoy it, as she starts getting overly emotional.

She is also a closet lesbian, with a deep seeded hatred in men. Though, she’ll never admit it to anyone.

Secretly, she is a closet nerd, and is often doing something that others would consider nerd like. She’ll often say something by accident, like a Star Wars quote, but luckily most people don’t pick it up. She is also, to a certain degree, masochistic and submissive. However, she’s never let this slip, not once. She even denies it herself when she starts to question it.

Contracted Demon: Moh Shuvuu (Whom Alyss just calls “Moh”)

History: The Aidan family is a family with a well known history of Occultism, and “magicians”. The term being used loosely, as every member of the Aidan family has claimed to have extraordinary powers, but has failed in using any. For years they’ve practiced summoning demons, performing rituals, and casting spells, and for years they have failed, every attempt being completely unsuccessful, and bringing much shame to the family name.

From a young age, Alyss read up on it and studied for many years. However, she did what her family could not, and dismissed it all as complete and total non-sense. Although she found it very interesting, she disregarded it as fiction. Instead of participating in family rituals in attempts to bring demons to the realm of the living, she practiced the art of Kendo. Instead of being skilled in “magic” she’s very skilled with a katana, and able to hold her own in a fight.

She also practiced the art of computer hacking. Being very skilled in it, she quickly gained ranks online on underground hacking sites. Using this reputation, she decided to become an information broker, and a pirate of sorts. She often pirates software months before it’s released and sells it to the highest bidder so they can release it to the public.

This ultimately became her saving grace. Her family was dreadfully disappointed in her decision to not practice the dark arts. The disowned her, but much to their surprise, she didn’t care. She had earned enough money to afford her own place in the Residential part of town. There, she started to home school herself due to her inability and unwillingness to make friends. She also conducted her hacking from her new loft, and would see information to those that asked for it. She quickly found stacks of cash all over her home.

Being very secretive, she quickly installed state of the art security around her home, and had her loft locked down.


Demon

Name: Moh

Age: Unknown (Though confirmed to be young for her kind)

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Moh is a rather small demon. However, don’t let her appearance fool you. She packs a mighty punch. If standing (which is rare, she is almost always hovering above the ground), she would stand in at 3,0 even. Most think of her as cute, and she does enjoy the praise. Her eyes, as well as her hair are pink. Her hair is rather long, going to her feet. However, her hair doubles as makeshift wings. She flaps it much like a bird would flap it’s wings, and uses them to fly and glide. It requires next to no energy, so she is always flying, and never uses her own legs to walk. The only time she isn’t in the air is when she’s sitting.

She wears a long robe that looks much like a long fur coat. It is laced with fur, and has an emblem around the stomach area. Her hat is styled in a very similar fashion, and she never takes it off. Her boots are much like her coat and hat. She also wears a pair of gloves, as she hates touching things directly.

Personality: Moh is very demanding, and almost always annoyed by something. She isn’t very happy about being summoned by someone she considers to be a lesser being, and an inconvenience. She believes Alyss to be weak, and easily manipulated. Due to the nature of her powers, she’s able to constantly bend Alyss to her knees and make her do things that she normally wouldn’t do.

Moh is almost the complete opposite of Alyss. She isn’t shy in the slightest, and she will do anything to get what she wants, even if this means physically maiming someone. She isn’t afraid to lie, cheat, or steal to do what she believes is necessary. One of her favorite hobbies is telling someone how much of an idiot that they are.

Like Alyss, she isn’t fond of men. In fact there is an old Buryatian legend that she would lure men out to isolated spots and bash their brains out on rocks and then suck out their brains.

As the story progresses, she becomes attached to Alyss, and regrets doing some of the awful things that she ends up doing to her. She also starts to lighten up and treat her with respect, forming a bond with another human, something she never thought she would ever do.

[MagicMasher]

Human


Name: Reggie Klein

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Starting Location: Suburbia

Appearance: Reggie is short (about 5'0''), has hazel eyes, and has rusty (reddish-brown) colored short hair. His hair is usually spiked, but not extravagant. He is very skinny, with little muscle weight.

Normally, Reggie wears the basic jeans and/or shorts and a t-shirt. For shoes, he wears Converse. Being 14, he is in that awkward stage of caring about his appearance, but at the same time not really caring. As a result, he doesn't have any overly stylish or remarkable clothes.

However...when the Apocalypse hits, or in his free time, you can definitely notice him in the crowd. With a flowing blue cape with the emblem of an eagle on the back, a bronze-colored chest plate, white Monk-like belt, and flowing cloth pants, how can he be missed? As if it weren't enough, his ensemble is topped off with a white headband, pointed Cloggs, and a wooden sword attached to his waist.


Personality: Over freaking excited. Over everything. He is hyper, brash, rushes into things without thinking, and misinterprets everything that anyone says. He usually takes everything personally, and definitely hates when people make fun of his height.

He wants to be a "modern-age Hero", and will do anything in his power to try and gain that status - even if it means placing himself in danger. He constantly tries to get into fights (and attempts to win) to try and assert himself as a dominant figure - mainly because he feels inadequate and weak due to his stature.

Contracted Demon: Kikuri-Hime

History: Coming from a Dad who is a writer, and a Mom who is a theatre teacher at the local high school, it isn't a wonder why Reggie has a very hyperactive imagination. While most kids are out playing in the dirt, climbing trees, or staying inside with video games, Reggie takes a more fantastical, hands-on approach - he literally pretends to be from a video game.

So, most of his days are taken up by LARPing - Live Action Roleplaying. Although him and his friends always have static characters, they never run out of ideas on adventures and quests. Since his Dad is usually holed up in his study and his Mom busy with grading and rehearsals for the school shows, what else is there to do in Suburbia?

His LARPing has caused him to be the target of bullying, but it never has really phased Reggie - at most, he actually takes on the challenge. Although he usually gets his ass handed to him, or the bully just sits there and messes with him, Reggie doesn't let it get to him. He sees it as a challenge that threatens his Heroship.

As such, when Kikuri-Hime appeared to Reggie at the onset of the Apocalypse, he flipped out. He saw this as an opportunity to do good in the world, even if his partner was a demon. With the powers of a demon, he could totally revamp the city and show that he is a Hero!

And thus, the CCDPS - Cross City Demon Prevention Squad - was born.






Demon


Name: Kikuri-Hime

Age: N/A

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Personality: Kikuri-Hime is usually very calm and collected. When dealing with any situation, she tries to negotiate her way out of conflict rather than get involved in it. As such, she is a very unique demon - one actually wonders why she is classified as such. However, when struck with anger, or her desire to protect exceeds all else, she becomes a violent witch, and looks to destroy all enemies in her path.

After being contracted to Reggie, she began to admire his unrelenting, yet very innocent and naive, notion of protecting the city from other demons. Even if the name he comes up with to represent the duo is stupid and embarrassing.

However, she does find a bit of fun in their outrageous theatrical entrance into to action. She isn't completely devoid of a sense of humor.

[Sir Fratley]

Human

Name: Thoma Leonhardt
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Starting Location: Residential District
Appearance:

(Guy on the left with the short, spiky blond hair)
Personality: Thoma is a ladies' man, or so he likes to think. He's not conceited, but he does have a habit of wooing any pretty face he comes across. However, he has a strong sense of morality, especially concerning women. He lives by his personal 'Code of the Gentleman', of which his top two tennents are 'Never make a woman cry' and 'Never strike a woman except in self-defense'. He also knows when to back away, when enough is really enough. He is dedicated to his friends and is always wiling to help others in need. He is also very protective of animals and despises animal abusers as well as guys who abuse women.

Contracted Demon: Lilly the Kitsune


History: Thoma was born to a family of veterinarians. From an early age, he loved animals with a passion. He learned how to train and groom dogs from his mother, and his father taught him how to properly raise and care for animals, along with what to look for as far as health concerns.

However, his happy home would be shattered when his father ended up killed in a car accident. He and his mother lived together while he attended school. His mother eventually remarried, but the man she married turned out to be quite the scam artist. He came off as a wonderful kind of guy, but after the wedding, the man became controlling and abusive towards Thoma's mother. Thoma's mother was scared that he would do something to Thoma, so she kept quiet and made up stories about the bruises, but those stories weren't enough to satisfy Thoma's curiosity.

While he was going to school, Thoma was quite a hit with the ladies. He was handsome and he always complimented every girl in school, even those that weren't so hot looking. As such, he had many female friends.

One day, he came home and saw his mother being beaten by his step father. In a fit of rage, Thoma attacked his stepfather and ended up hospitalizing the man. However, he himself ended up in the hospital as well, with a knife in his chest. It was a miracle he survived. Thoma's stepfather also survived, but was permanently paralyzed from the waist down and was later sentenced to 10 years in prison.

He hated his stepfather. But not just that, he hated anyone who would dare strike a female for any reason other than self-defense. He wanted to be stronger, so he could protect others. So that what happened to his mother never happened to anyone else, not if he could help it. And one morning, he found something that was not there before on his nightstand: A bracelet with some sort of crazy bunch of glyphs inscribed upon it. Soon afterwards, news arrived from the prison that his father had mysteriously gone insane and had to be moved to an asylum.

Demon
Name: Kitsune Princess Lilliandra Vulpes aka Lilly
Age: 1098
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Active

Dormant

Personality: Lilly is a spunky and energetic kitsune. She is quite flirtatious, which seems to mirror Thoma's personality. She is very protective of Thoma and keeps an eye on his mind, in case she needs to protect him against mental attacks. She considers herself quite clever and enjoys using illusions to mess with people's heads. Get her angry enough though and she may turn the offender into a clinical vegetable or force them to endlessly relive their most traumatizing experiences for the rest of their lives. She also has superhuman strength and she tends to be very athletic. However, she has little in the way of offensive magic, preferring to either trick or manipulate her enemies, or just simply shatter every bone in their body.
Elemental Affinity: Physical & Mind

 

[Pandora]

Human

Name : Nina Genevese

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Starting Location: Residential District

Appearance:
Nina stands at 5"6 and weighing only 112 lbs, making her physique quite small due to her high metabolism. Her hair is short, barely touching her collar bone, and is platinum blonde as it almost looks white in bright light - some days it'll be completely straight while others the ends may be wavy, and she has blunt bangs that reach midway past her eyebrows. Her skin is a sand color as she spends a quarter of the day outdoors and her eyes are light pink, but have a dark red tint surrounding the center of her pupils, which some people have thought to have been very inhumane.

Nina usually wears whatever she finds comfortable, but she prefers to wear black out of anything else. The outfit she usually wears is a plain but fitted black tube top along with black denim skinny jeans. She also wears a long pink scarf around her neck, whether if it’s cold outside or not, she finds it to be her favorite accessory. Her left hip is pierced, but you wouldn't be able to notice it unless her top was pulled up an inch or two higher. Her nose is also pierced with a white gem stone stud placed into it. For shoes, she wears black laced boots that reach slightly beneath her knee area where the top of them are folded over. She likes this outfit particularly because most people wouldn’t be able to easily judge if she was a threat or not.

Personality: Nina is partly known for being sadistic. She usually isn’t shy near anyone she talks to, and is rarely intimidated by anyone by appearance. She is considering as sarcastic rather than mean, and she never hesitates to speak her mind about something or someone else or to the person’s face. She doesn’t like being around people that have an over-cheerful personality, seeing as those kind of people are faking what seems to be a perfect life, but everyone should have a rage or sob story to sulk about. She doesn’t do anything bad when just meeting someone new; she always prefers to get to know a person before deciding how she feels about them. She takes pleasure in sometimes twisting logic to confuse a person or to give her the winning hand in an argument.

Nina believes that no one has the capability of being a higher power than that which they can’t see. She is a proud Deist, meaning that she is sure to herself that there is more than one spirit or god controlling the world that she lives in – both evil and benign. She has often researched and studied mythology and different kinds of religions to see which one made more sense to her. She didn’t feel like choosing one particular religion to abide by, but didn’t doubt that superior beings existed. She has tried out certain rituals that were believed to summon these kinds of beings in her presence, and when her attempts fail, she comes to the conclusion that the belief was only a legend.

When someone gets on Nina’s nerve, she’ll usually let the person know who’s irritating her. If the case is continues after that case, she may start to get threatening towards the person – and it doesn’t take a lot of nudges to annoy her. She usually is fond of people that have a similar personality to hers or that values trying out new things. When it comes to romantic interest, Nina is usually the person that picks out who she’s interested in. She is bisexual, but prefers women over men, as she sometimes sees males as over confident and cocky with being dominant one in a relationship. She is aware that not all guys are like this, however, but doesn’t want to deal with that kind of behavior, and is more or less of a feminist than the next woman. Relationships are usually only started if she feels the need for one.

She isn’t considered the smartest girl in the city, but she usually knows more about English, Folklore, and Mythology than most of the citizens do, and definitely more than her parents cared to show interest for. Due to her showing lack of interest in some subjects such as math or politics, she prefers the study of topics that can be linked to history in any way. She could have a conversation go on for hours about any of the things that she has studied in school or during her spare time. She usually looks down on people who would rather not learn anything at all, and can sometimes see them as space being wasted on the planet. Anyone that knows about her well enough for her to trust them personally would say that she has a reason for everything she does and believes in.

Contracted Demon: Lilura

History:
Being a part of a family that had unreliable parents, Nina was often ignored or misjudged by her relatives as a child, seeing as she was actually an accident. The mother preferred gambling than doing her required responsibilities and seen as very materialistic, while the father had paid more attention to his job as a detective than with the family’s needs at home. Growing up, Nina had gradually learned how to take care of herself, from deciding what kind of style of clothing she liked to feeding herself to discovering what kind of things she was interested in. Seeing as how she used to be shy and naive, Nina was often put down by what her parents and other peers would say about her, and had once tried to take her own life by overdosing. Medical attention had managed to get the substances out of her before she could die, and during recovery she had decided that she would give herself a second chance at dealing with the obstacles that often mentally bombarded her.

Once she had become a teenager, Nina had learned to speak up for herself against people who saw her as socially awkward. Seeing that school wasn’t enough of a challenge for her, she decided to drop out without any discretion from her parents, and spent most of her days in the library where she felt she could learn at her own pace. People have heard about the things that she has done to try and see if the existence of some spirits existed, and often called her a devil worshiper or anything related. Her parents were notified after some point about what she was doing and they made the decision to kick her out of the household – despite that she was planning on leaving soon anyway.

Her inspiration for studying topics like fantasy, folklore, and mythology no one really knows, but people began to look at her differently as she got older. By the time she actually did find a shelter to stay in for a brief while, she was offered occupations as a researcher and a journalist; so that whatever she knew and learned she could write down for publishing and get pay in return. She had accepted all of the offers she had gotten considering she was somewhat homeless and needed to get funds anyhow, and within two years she had gotten enough to buy her own condominium, even though she was considered too young to have one herself. It was times like that when she was glad that she was kicked out of her previous home, even though some of the information given out about her was misleading.

Nina had heard several months after her 19th birthday that her father had passed away from illness, his final words not expressing in the slightest how he really felt about Nina. This didn’t surprise her, seeing as her family was considered selfish enough to kick her out because of unconfirmed rumors about her, but that was all in the past, and she only focused on the present. The night after the she had gotten the news about her father’s death was something she wasn’t expecting at all. The experience she had gotten while trying to fall asleep was unnatural; she had felt that she was being forced into a dream rather than naturally drifting into one.

The setting of the illusion she was in the middle of was nothing but darkness, but eventually a pair of pale yellow eyes had appeared through it and gazed through her. In the blink of an eye, they had vanished, but Nina had felt a very strange surge go through her after that. While she was looking through the blackness trying to find out where she was, she had at one point glanced down at her body, and made a shocking discovery of a tattoo that she was sure that she had never gotten. It was a black outline of a rose –as if it were a crest - and coiled around the stem was what looked like a half woman half serpent creature with her arms embracing the rose as if it were her most treasured possession – all placed on her right outer thigh. After a few moments of looking at what she found, the symbol had begun to glow like candle just being lit.

“I have come for you, my liege.”​

Those words had gone through Nina’s head before she had finally woke up the next morning. The dream was unusual compared to the others that she had had before, but she considered it was all just a weird dream; at least she did until she saw the same tattoo on her outer thigh from before.


Demon


Name: Lilura

Age: Indefinite

Gender: Female

Appearance:

​

Dormant Form: When in her dormant state, Lilura’s mark rests within one particular spot that Nina wouldn’t be able to remove. The symbol of her existence is in fact a tattoo that was placed on Nina’s right outer thigh the night after her father’s death. As Nina saw in the dream that Lilura caused, it is in fact a large rose with thorns on its stem, and wrapped around the stem is a woman whose lower figure is the body of a serpent while her arms are around the rose into an embrace. The tattoo is believed to glow a golden color when Lilura is currently present and requesting Nina’s attention. If Nina wears something so that the glow isn’t visibly seen, she can still feel the warm surge in her epidermis that causes the glowing so she’ll know that Lilura wants something.

Active Form: When Lilura is physically present, she can appear in two forms. Her first and true form is that where the lower half of her body is that of a large serpent, while her head to waist area appears human and is exposed but most of her hair covers the chest area. Her hair is extremely voluminous and curly, and light blonde. If it were ever straightened, it would reach all the way to her bottom, but she prefers to let it loose majority of her time. Small shimmering gem stones are placed all over her back and lower stomach area in colors like silver, lime green, and purple. The scales of her serpent tail are a dark green color with some tints of black and yellow shimmering on them, and her painted orange nails are an alarming 2 1/2 inches long, sharp enough to scratch through any types of skin. Her position is usually coiled around something, whether if it's a tree, a street sign pole, anything that's capable of being wrapped around by whether if she is fully or partly visible - but laying flat on her back with the lower half of her body laying straight out, she is measured to be 8"7 in length, and the same applies to when she is standing straight up on her tail. The pupils in her sharp yellow eyes are shrunk into slivers, resembling her vision is like that of a reptile's, and her skin is slightly pale, nearly glimmering in any kind of light.

Her second form is when she appears to be completely human if you only focus on her stature. Her serpent body is replaced with slim legs that make her stand at 5"8. She appears to be of average weight, at a guess being 129 lbs as she has a curvaceous figure fitting with her height. Her hair is no longer as wild and strung out as it is in her true form, but only partly straightened half way while the rest of the strands have large waves put into them. Her eyes no longer show the sharpness and vigor of an untamed animal but rather soft and pale yellow eyes, revealing calmness but at the same time mystery within them. For attire, she wears a long silken bronze colored tube dress with a golden vintage pattern along the edges of the slit it has. She doesn't like to wear shoes, which explains why she walks barefoot everywhere, no matter the terrain, and she wears a golden anklet loosely above her foot as well as a silver toe ring. Lilura doesn't use this form too often; only if she has to go out in disguise to complete a task or to trick a person into thinking that she is harmless. But the easy way to tell if she's a demon is to see if the surroundings dim in brightness when she walks by.

Personality: Lilura's attitude is somewhat similar to Nina's, always taking pleasure in conducting mind tricks and giving snide remarks whenever something doesn't go the way she planned. In the world she comes from, she is considered a succubus - being known to seduce victims into her abode for what they believe to be a fantastic experience, only to have their lives ended before they realize it. Seeing as how she can be very lustful at times, Lilura may develop interest into whoever Nina meets with, whether man or woman, whether if its to trick them into carrying out a deed for her or to lure them in to fall into her masochistic trap.

Lilura is believed to appear on a first-meet basis with a new master when something grave has happened in that person's life and if that person has a great desire of a person, place, or thing. That is how Lilura suddenly came into Nina's life, being well aware that her father had passed on and that she wanted to know more about the supernatural beings in existence. Lilura found that to be one of Nina's greater qualities, but at the same time finds her to be too uptight at some times, suggesting any kind of method to help her relax about certain things. Seeing as part of Lilura is bound into the tattoo that was created on Nina, there's no easy way the two can separate from each other, and Lilura can also feel what Nina feels, what she thinks about, and what her physical condition is. That and she also has the capability of transferring her conscious into Nina's body, taking control of her for however long she desires whatever the reason may be - but this method takes a lot more energy out of Nina in the long run than it does to just summon Lilura's presence in the open.

Lilura finds humans to be a very interesting species, but her views on other demons like herself can be very different. Some demons have said to find her to be very intriguing, while others may describe her as vile in the head if they don't like her personality. She's not the kind of demon that likes to take orders unless she thinks about it or gives her two cents on them first. Rarely affected by others' opinion on her, she continues to mix pain with fun as she sees to it that she'll make everything she's involved in all the more interesting.

Human

Name Leonardo Seville
Age 35
Gender Male
Starting Location Mother HQ
Appearance 6'2, 180 pounds. Mostly muscle. Shoulder length black hair and a scruffy beard to match. He likes loose fitting clothes and always has his sword with him. His body is adorned with scars.
Personality A former soldier and current merc working for Mother. He is normally quiet around people he doesn't know or trust but when with friends, or with booze, he knows how to have a good time.

When it comes to his job, Leonardo doesn't take morals into consideration. His services go to the highest bidder, whether their cause is right or wrong. He's essentially waiting for someone to kill him on the job, because he believes he never has, and still doesn't, have anything to live for.

He's a master sword fighter and strategist, but isn't much of a leader, or very social in general. This caused him to never get passed Major General in the army.

He refuses to use any weapon besides a sword, with which he's mastered almost every style. In battle without his sword, he's useless.

Contracted Demon Susanoo
History At the age of 5, his wealthy parents gave him up, only for him to be adopted by a very prolific general in the army. He was immidiately put into basic training, where he excelled, doing better than even most adults. By age 7 he was put in Spec Ops. He climbed the ranks of the army at an alarming pace and by the age of 21, he was ready to quit at rank of Major General. After venturing into the real world, which he'd never experienced, he found that he wasn't good at anything except fighting which quickly became a problem. For a year he got most of his money from doing odd jobs for people, but that was barely enough to get food in his belly. Soon, he persued the route of the mercenary, a job that he's very, very good at. Currently he's working for Mother, although he knows nothing about their operations, nor is he a member.

Demon
Name Susanoo
Age Unknown
Gender Male
Appearance

Active When he is active he wears all blue clothes and has long silver hair that matches his skin tone. He has a mostly serious look on his face all the time and the few times you can see his teeth, they're very sharp. He's thin and tall, almost 9 foot. He adores his power to infiltrate and destroy people's minds, and can be sometimes reckless. His ice powers are mostly used for defense, such as a barrier, although in dire situations they can be used for offense.
Passive A sword sheath.

Personality Cold, calculating, and cerebral, Susanoo prefers to work from the shadows of a battle, manipulating his opponents into situations they can't get out of, rather than be on the front lines, although that doesn't mean he cannot handle himself. He gets along well with Leonardo.

He's rather cold and unsympathetic towards people, expecially those who are overly loud or optimistic. When he runs into those kinds of people, he gains a sick perverse pleasure from shooting down their dreams.

[Martel]

Name: Samael
Age: N/A
Gender: Male
Appearance: Samael is eight inches over six feet in height and heavily muscled, making him quite the imposing figure. He has ebony skin with chiselled, handsome features with a timeless, ethereal quality to them. His eyes are a vivid, poisonous green, and glow with their own venomous light. His hair is a light gold colour, with a motion unto itself, like a gentle ocean current even when he is stationary. Twelve ivory wings decorate his back, a stark contrast to his weapon: strapped diagonally across his back, a two-handed sword, four inches past six foot in length, with a silver representation of Jesus on the cross across the antiquated, battered hilt, a golden skull with eyes like rubies sitting atop the pommel. The blade itself is black and appears to literally bleed darkness, like black ink staining water, or blood staining white satin. Contained within are the many souls that Samael has not seen fit to allow passage to either Heaven or Hell, their spirits bound and trapped within the sword until the end of days, or until such time Samael sees fit to release them. He wears a simple black tunic and old-fashioned leggings, over which he wears various pieces of chipped, battered armour; a breastplate, greaves, gauntlets and a shoulder pad on his left-hand side.

Personality: Samael is, above all else, detached from his surroundings. He stands apart, a solitary figure, a permanent presence, an elemental force. His is an omnipotent presence although, unlike others who can make the same claim, he feels nothing for those around him, he is not intimately involved in anything, and is a very cold personality as a result, not cruel, but very matter-of-fact and finite. He does not exude the holy aura of his brethren, or the malice of a demon. His is an unknowable presence. Samael reveals nothing of what he is thinking or feeling, assuming that he even feels anything, or has any complex thoughts.

Samael is quick to act, and his actions seem all the more brutal for their complete lack of empathy or malice. Despite this, there are occasions when a tinge of melancholy or bitterness will enter his voice, usually when he is reminiscing about times that have long since past, or his questionable status as an Archangel in the eyes of others, although his face will not change its stony expression.

Despite his detachment to all affairs other than his own, which extend no further than the collection of departed souls and simply watching events unfold, Samael is devoted to God, and answers to none other. He feels no need to explain himself, and will never offer much more than a cryptic hint, or a straightforward statement that is not an answer at all. He is rarely seen (at least by the living), and it is even rarer that he chooses to break his isolated vigil and speak to another individual, be they mortal, angel or demon. On occasion, Samael will display a certain curiosity for individuals - often those souls that he binds to his sword - when they exhibit a strength of will or a personality trait that he has not seen before (or in a very long time, at least) although this is rarer even than him seeking to converse with another.

Elemental Affinity: Light, Darkness

As the Angel of Death and one of the Seven Archangels, those who are amongst the most powerful of God's servants, Samael is formidable, with control over both the forces of Light and Darkness. However, the only powers of Darkness he has displayed are those that are Death-aspected, as well as the ability to travel through and hide in shadows undetected. In battles he has only used the power of Light.


Samael possesses the ability to bring newly departed souls back from the dead, although this is something he has never done: equal life energy is required in exchange, which would mean the sacrifice of the life of another. Samael could easily return departed souls to the world of the living under his own power, but that would upset the notion of balance and, more importantly, is an abuse of his power.

Samael can manipulate the souls of the dead as he pleases. He can confine a dying soul to its body, thereby allowing the body to be healed, so that the soul might continue to exist in the mortal realm. As an Archangel, Samael possesses extremely powerful healing abilities and, combined with his ability to manipulate souls, he essentially holds the power to decide who lives and who dies, even if the individual has received a fatal wound: for example, if someone had been cut in half, he could simply hold their soul to their body and heal the wound, making them whole and healthy again. He is free to use his healing abilities as he pleases, and the decision of what to do with those souls that find their way to him is his, but he has rarely chosen to do anything other than allow nature to take its course and send the souls on. It is the natural order of things, after all. Whilst it is not Samael who decides whether souls go to Heaven or Hell, he can also deny them access to both by either absorbing them personally or simply refusing them passage, condemning them to wander the mortal realm as a spirit. Whilst he is not the final judge of souls, he is their arbiter and collector, and it is by his will alone that departed souls face their final judgement.

As a rule, Samael does not use his powers to interfere over Life and Death: as the Angel of Death, he must be impartial. It is unclear as to whether or not Samael remains an Archangel or whether he has become a Fallen Angel - he has not been seen by his brothers for millennia, or returned to either the Seventh of the Fifth Heaven. He wanders the mortal realm, harvesting souls as he was commanded to by God in the beginning. He serves his Lord still, although whether this is for his Lord's sake, his own, or even another's, is unclear. He is a mystery, even to his brothers, but since he has not been declared as Fallen, it is assumed that he remains an Archangel.

In combat, Samael is both terrifying and magnificent to behold. He is immune to all but the most powerful attacks from demons and angels from the highest order, and his speed and power is such that very few can stand against him for very long before they find their souls awaiting him. However, Samael's true combat strength is unknown, for he has only ever had need to fight four times in the past: once was against his fellow Archangel, Michael, which resulted in a draw, and only because the bout was stopped before it even truly begun. The other three times were against high-class demons, whom he bested with relative ease. Like his brothers, Samael wields holy power of the highest order, able to rain down destruction with ease. His power is virtually limitless, and perhaps even surpasses that of his brothers due to his control over the souls of the dead, in addition to the holy power all Archangels possess. However, he is extremely limited in its use: his role is that of an impartial observer, a collector of souls to ensure them safe passage to the next life or prevent them from disturbing the living as wandering spirits, not an as arbiter or a judge, except for in very special circumstances, as directed by God, through Metatron. He is permitted to defend himself if attacked, although in combat he uses light-aspected power, which is of approximately the same strength as his fellow Archangels. Much of Samael's power is passive, and kept in check, and his self-imposed and ordered limitations make him of a similar strength than his brothers, although with considerably less battle experience. Although, as the Angel of Death, he does not have much reason to fight: few are foolish enough to engage him in battle, and few see the need: whilst he is an Archangel of God, he does not interfere in any affairs, be they mortal or otherwise. His brothers are the ones who are called upon to do battle in the name of God.

[DeusExLumina]

Since this is also the discussion thread, I thought I'd just ask here, can the demons communicate with their contractor mentally in passive form? I ask because it would be hard to really develop personality for a character that would only show up every once in a while and wouldn't be doing much speaking while they were there.

 

[Pandora]

That was one of the things I had planned for Lilura. Since one of her elements is Psy, I would think that she would be able to speak to Nina telepathically when she wants to - whether if she's in her dormant or active state; unless Diar states otherwise . ​

 

[Abstract Debauchery]

That's also the way I had planned it out, myself. I, more or less, assumed everyone would be doing something similar.

 

[Noblesse Oblige]

Actually, I think everyone was going to do something similar.

 

[Gaige]

No worries. Mental communication between yourself and your demon is always available, as is mental AND vocal conversation while they're in their active form. Demons aren't mindless beasts. They're intelligent and diverse, just like humans. They're on equal footing with humans in this RP, intellectually as well as emotionally.

On another note, approved Martel. I'm looking forward to all those little plot devices you've made coming to fruition.
