An Unheard Plea


I don't understand. If God is supposed to love us eternally and equally, then... then why were we cast aside? We didn't sin. We didn't do anything wrong! But now our wings are blackening, the sign of an outcast, and a mark has been imprinted on our skin, the sign of a sinner. We're being treated as traitors by those in Heaven. And Lucifer-- he opens the Gates of Hell for us, welcoming us with open arms!

I don't wanna go there. I don't want to go to Hell. What did I do to deserve this punishment? What did any of us do? God, why did You cast us out? Why did You abandon us? I can't take not knowing. Please, please just tell me... I'll repent, whatever it is, I'll repent. But... what did I do wrong?


Synopsis


This is the story of seven angels who Fall from Heaven, cast out because of something they swear they didn't do. Sin. They are innocent, as far as they know, but for some reason or another God threw them out and banished them to wander the mortal world. It is there they will serve a temporary sentence until the purity that once claimed their whole entire being is completely gone and all that is left is their taint; then they are doomed to Hell where Lucifer will welcome them with open arms.

On earth, these angels will wander in search for a place to stay and meet a human who seems caring and will take them in. It is with this person, who so kindly opened their doors for them, they will learn about the human world and discover the various sins that tempt man. Despite being angels, they will be exposed to these sins as well and -- without realizing how easily they succumb to the evil -- will slowly but surely develop a love for one certain sin in particular.

As a whole, these Fallen angels will become the origin for the Seven Deadly Sins.

Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Pride. Each angel will fall for one of these sins.

And though they don't know it, Lucifer, ever crafty and welcoming to new sinners and outcasts from Heaven, will deploy 1-3 demons and disguise them as humans. These servants will befriend the seven angels and manipulate them into falling deeper and deeper into sin. Lucifer's soul is to capture these seven angels for himself and make them Fall completely.

The seven angels will have to struggle with retaining their purity and prove to God they are innocent after all. Otherwise, they will surely succumb to the temptations of Sin and Fall into Hell.

Time/Place


This takes place in modern times in the human world. The story begins when the angels are convicted and first arrive on earth. There will be no specifics as to where exactly they have landed, only that it's somewhere between now and the past ten to fifteen years. There will be no mention of current politics -- no mentions to presidents or political figureheads, no specific names to current civil discrepancies, etc. If history does happen to crop up during the RP, it should be kept to a minimum because it does not play a major or important role in the story.

However, mentions of certain facilities like public bathrooms, cell phones, buses, airplanes, elevators, trains, scooters, computers, television, etc that are widely known all over the world are okay in mentioning. So long as there is no mention of specific politics to certain countries, it's fine. Pretend we are somewhere there is a democracy and ample enough freedom for everyone to do as they want, whenever they want, however they want.

Characters


There will be SEVEN angels, one assigned to a specific Seven Deadly Sin. There can be UP TO three demons of Lucifer, though there does not have to be. A minimum of ONE is required.

These are LIMITED SPACES. There can be only seven angels and up to three demons. The only way will there be an opening for another of either character (if we so happen to fill up all the spaces) would be if an RPer drops their position as the role or has not been active in the RP for a certain amount of time without good reason.

**EDIT: As of 05.02.2009, several of the original players have been deleted from the list due a prolonged period of inactivity of they have dropped from the RP. Those without a name are up for grabs from new players. These spaces will be filled out as people take their spots. Italics indicates a new member.**

Angels
1. Lust --- ImmortalEcstasy
2. Gluttony --- AngelDreams
3. Greed ---
4. Sloth ---
5. Wrath --- estalu
6. Envy ---
7. Pride ---

Demon(s)
1. "Delilah Black" by WhispersofMe
2. "Sid Divine" by Waste.
3. "Rihatsu Shijin" by Carerra
4. "Nix Mainya" by me, m00se

Character Skeleton


Despite being ethereal beings, everyone looks normal. They look like every other human on earth. The only way to tell if they are an angel or demon is to find their "mark," a tattoo of sorts upon their skin somewhere on their body that either associates them as a Fallen, or a Demon. They can be as big or as small as you want, but preferably discrete and able to be hidden under normal clothes.

The Fallen's symbol is THIS.
The Demon's symbol is THIS
These images are not mine; I do not own them at all. I merely borrowed because they looked cool. They are © by their respected owners. Please do not steal or claim as your own.

Angels
Name:
Age: (14-30)
Race: Angel
Sin:
Appearance:
Place of Marking: (upon every angel there is the mark of a sinner -- where's yours?)
Personality: (describe prior to sinning)
Other: (is there something special we should know that hasn't been stated already?)

Demons
Name:
Age: (14-30)
Race: Demon
Appearance:
Place of Marking: (upon every demon is the mark of the devil -- where's yours?)
Personality:
Other: (is there something special we should know that hasn't been stated already?)

All roleplayers must fill out one of these two bios. Characters must be approved in order to play. Please be as descriptive as you can. Images are accepted for appearances, but please don't make them huge. If you cannot shrink the image, post it as a link. Also, if using images instead of text to describe your character, try to stay away from bust shots. A full body image is preferable -- but if that's really all you have, add text as well to fill in where the image lacks.

Character Romance


Romance is not forbidden. Two angels may engage in romance if they want to. Two demons may do so also. Even a relationship between an angel and demon is okay too. But if you plan on getting a little risque and raunchy with your partner, please keep that to PMs on account that minors might be looking at this thread and feel uncomfortable reading your writing.

If you want to play a homosexual character (gay/lesbian/bi), that's fine too, but keep in mind that not all characters will be oriented that way. You can make your character persistent in pursuing a relationship with another character of the same gender, but don't push the other person (namely the RPer) into a corner where he/she may feel awkward about your character's advances.

If in doubt about your partner's response towards a relationship -- hetero or homo -- don't hesitate to ask in an OOC or here in this thread or even in a PM.

Rules


It may seem unnecessary, but a refresher may be useful for many.

1. No god-modding characters.
2. Don't kill off another person's character without permission.
3. No magnificent powers -- all characters are posing as humans; all such tricks, even demons, will be kept to an extreme minimum. No one will be allowed to display powers if unless specifically directed by the creator of the RP for a certain scene in the story.
4. No insulting / bullying the RPer -- be tasteful and polite.

Requirements


This may seem like a redundant topic, but there are a few requirements for someone to join this RP. They are very simple but necessary.

1. Must have a strong grasp of English grammar. -- This means no txt speech. (No u, lol, zomg, ttly, sum1... etc.) Acronyms are acceptable, if they are made properly.
2. Spell checks often. -- Some typos are fine, no one's perfect, but please keep it to a minimum. If you have to, read over your stuff once or twice before posting.
3. Posts often. -- I hope this RP will be active, and if it is, I ask that everyone be able to post regularly, at least once every other day. If you are skeptical you are able to commit to this, perhaps you should reconsider joining. If you are really interested in it, though, but may have some schedule problems that will get in the way of your being able to post often, please make note of that to me and we will see if there is something we can work out.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

NOTE: For any personal questions/concerns you feel uncomfortable stating publicly in the thread, feel free to PM me. I promise to answer you to the best of my ability.

Name: Landon Tirsoilleir
Age: 17
Race: Angel
Sin: lust
Appearance: blonde hair to his jaw, almost white. he has deep brown eyes, and long eyelashes. a very feminine face shape, and paler than average skin, his bottom lip is ever so slightly fuller than his top, but it suits him, until he pouts. He is muscular and his shoulders are very large, he stands around 6"1 but his kind face means he's not very imposing on people. he has a scar on the edge of his jaw that goes to the top of his neck, its just a slightly raised mark now and barely noticable to the eye. (tell me if you want me to add more.)
Place of Marking: across his back, reaching from both sides and from his shoulders to the small of his back.
Personality: he is very willing to help, and his emotions are very attuned to other peoples, he'll always respond effectively and kindly. And has never been known to be rash about something, he is truthful and always honest.
Other: he isnt scared of the sins themselves, but of what they could do to him.

Name:
Viviana McCourt

Image

Age:
23
Race:
Angel
Sin:
Wrath
Appearance:
Viviana is small, standing only at 5'3", with fair skin. Her hair is light blonde, reaching just below her shoulders, and always hanging loose. Her eyes are an intense, icy blue, and in life, she always favoured comfortable clothes, mostly jeans and t-shirts, with a hoodie/cardigan to go with them. She often wore flat shoes.
Her figure is slim, but not overly skinny, which suited her profession as a dancer in life; and of course, there are her wings, blackened since her fall, and she often draws them in, to conceal them, and the reminder they are of losing her place in Heaven.
Place of Marking:
Viviana's mark is on the nape of her neck, always hidden by her hair.
Personality:
Before she started to sin, Viviana was a good friend to all who wanted her friendship. A shoulder to cry on, someone to confide in, she was always there for someone with comforting words, even if they were a little harsh at times. She was somewhat self-conscious in life, but that disappeared when she died, and she tried her best to be what an Angel should be; or what she thought an Angel should be. Her temper in life had always been firey, though, and when she started to feel indescribable rage as an Angel, she didn't connect it to that, or a Sin. She thought it was normal - then she got kicked out of Heaven.

can i be a demon?

Name: (real name is Abyzou - her name while she's disguised as a human is:) Zoe
Age: 21
Race: Demon
Appearance:her human form: she has straight black hair that looks blue in the sun, that goes past her waist, she has a feathered fringe past her eyebrows. her eyes are ice blue and her face is heart shaped - Lucifer made it so she is amazingly beautiful and innocent looking, trying to lure the angels should be easy for her, as she lures human males most days.
demonic form: the appeared of a large black horse with two horns spiralling from her head, and skin with the apparenece and texture of tar.
Place of Marking: its an the back of her neck, covered by her hair.
Personality: she is proud to serve Lucifer and doesn't let anything get in her way from pleasing him, sometimes she dislikes the tasks he sets for her, but she does them with solid commitment, she can appear sweet and gentle, or wild and fierce, her true personality had been almost lost in the many many years she has been acting out Lucifers plans and manipulating herself for him as well as others.
Other: she isn't easily pursuaded by any other than Lucifer, a crush on him approaching its millionth year isn't easy to shove off, she likes that her human form attracts so much male attention but wishes one of her forms would have the same effect on Lucifer.

Name;;
Ella Fier.

Image

Age;;
Nineteen.

Race;;
Angel.

Sin;;
Pride.

Appearance;;
Ella stands at around 5'9", and is slim. She has a naturally curvaceous figure and while she has never really taken advantage of this in the past, it might be the way to make her sin, as she has the potential to be very vain.

Place Of Marking;;
This is on her inner left arm, stretching from the crook of her elbow down to her wrist.

Personality;;
Ella does have a naturally arrogant streak. Already, she is rather concerned about her own appearance, but she tries to keep this under control, because she does not want to sin. When she was cast out of heaven, she was stunned, because she has never done anything wrong in her life. However, her personality is not that strong, so she could be rather easy to persuade into a different path.
Before sinning, however, she was friendly and trustworthy and thought about other people more than herself. She would have done anything for her friends or what she believed in, and her arrogant streak was kept well under control.

Other: She hate's the way she acts

Name: Sid Divine.

Age: 19

Race: Demon

Place of Marking: His mark is in the centre of his shoulder blades and has a 15 cm diameter.

Personality: Sid likes to be dominant, he is easily put into a bad mood and is known to toy with emotions. He trusts no one and has a feminine attitude towards clothes and make up. He enjoys annoying people and can sometimes have a very strange view on things. He doesn't like being ruled by Lucifer but satisfy's this hate by telling himself that there is no one but Lucifer above him. Sid trusts no one as letting others into his life weakens him, it means that he has to look out for someone other than himself, and that just isn't an option. If he gets to close, he gets away.
In Sid's eyes this is his world and he can do what he wants with it.

Other: He's Bisexual.

Wow! That was fast responding, guys. Thanks for signing up. =) Immediately below is a list of accepted characters/RPers:

Angels
1. Lust --- ImmortalEcstasy
2. Gluttony ---
3. Greed --- OniIgnasha
4. Sloth --- eNzeru
5. Wrath --- SaveYou
6. Envy ---
7. Pride --- St. Jimmy

Demon(s)
1. "Zoe" by Adaptations
2. "Sid Divine" by Waste.
3. "Rihatsu Shijin" by Carerra

Looking at it, all the Demons have been taken. But a few spots for the Angels characters are still open for the taking. As for the rest of you, I shall pose some concerns of my own before I can let you in.

ICryForAFamily--- I have already accepted ImmortalEcstasy's character bio for the character of Lust. You may try to take one of the other character spots if its open, but beware that you'll have to fight for a spot with so few spaces left.

chidori_chii--- Your character for Envy is missing a few key points of the bio. If you could, please, fill them out and I'll give it another look to see if it's valid.

AngelDreams--- Your image isn't working for your character of Gluttony and thus you are lacking in the "Appearance" part of the bio. If you could, either find a different pick, or type out the description of your character and I'll look at it another time to see if it's acceptable.

If you three still want a spot, you'll have to fight for it. Please do as I have instructed you and your characters will be looked at again for approval. You don't have to make a completely new post for your character, just edit what you have. Be sure to tell me, though, that you've edited or I won't remember. (Horrible short-term memory, you understand.)

For those of you who have your characters approved, congrats! But please be patient as we wait for our other characters to be filled in.

I've gotta say, I'm really surprised this hit off so quickly. I hope everyone's able to play nicely and regularly with each other. I should've reserved a spot for myself, but, haha, too late now it seems. I truly didn't expect so quick a response. :3
