Cursed Haven

Haven, a city being overrun by a demon's curse, can it be saved or is it doomed to fall into darkness? (looking for players)

4,338 readers have visited Cursed Haven since blankpage created it.

Introduction

Image
12 years ago the world changed when a demon lord tore a rift between worlds and launched an all out attack attacked on the city of Haven. Taken by surprise humanity was forced to acknowledge the existence of demons and the supernatural. Meanwhile the demon lord took control of a huge part of the city. The first battles of the war were easily won by the demons, but eventually the people of Haven started to push back.

In a final massive struggle humanity triumphed and killed the demon lord. However, as he died he cast a curse, corrupting the city with his power. The rift closed as thick red rain poured from the sky. The surviving demons fled to the darkest holes and corners of the city, but they remained.

Not long after the effects of the curse became evident. Animals and plant life became twisted and often dangerous. Some humans also began to develop paranormal abilities. These humans became feared for their frightening powers and their tendencies to lose control.

So that's when you come in. You are a citizen for modern day Haven. The city is still being rebuilt and paranoia is everywhere. Armed forces patrol the streets for demons and corrupted animals. The number of corrupted humans is on the rise, as is the number of them that lose control.

So what will you do? Will you join the police department or Haven Office of Demon Affairs and try to restore order? Will you make a profit off the chaos as a demon hunter?
Or perhaps you're a part of Haven's Curse, one of the poor souls corrupted by demonic power. What about you? Will you stand with humanity or take the city for your own kind?

Corrupted Humans
These people have developed supernatural abilities as a result of Haven's Curse. They are classified as stable and unstable. A stable person is usually in full control of his/her abilities but is far weaker than one who is unstable. Unstable people on the other hand frequently lose control of their abilities, their powers grow and continue to grow rapidly in strength, on top of this they are prone to going insane. A stable person can become unstable when put under extreme stress although some people are unstable from the moment their powers start to develop. They are referred to by many as "Freaks" and are meant to register with the Haven Office of Demon Affairs, although many prefer to hide their nature.

Demon Hunters
Many humans can’t wait for the H.O.D.A. to track down certain demons and will pay money to anyone that can. Demon hunting is illegal because it's so dangerous and because some hunt demons for demonic substances like demon blood. Some hunters will also target corrupted humans, for the right price.

H.O.D.A.
The Haven Office of Demon Affairs is responsible for cleansing the city of Demons. They research demons, the corrupted and all things related to Haven's curse. They also monitor and regulate registered corrupted humans. Rumors claim that they preform illegal experiments on corrupted humans, but those are just rumors... right?

Demons
Demons are split into two classes, lesser and higher.
Lesser: These are mainly monstrous mixes of animals that can sometimes possess paranormal powers. They are very similar to corrupted animals, except they are usually more powerful and more intelligent.
Higher: These are very rare. They are at least as smart as humans and can have humanoid forms (although not always). They are capable of using powerful supernatural abilities and commanding lesser demons.

  1. Sweeney McCarthy - the overweight, middle aged owner of McCarthy's pub
  2. Elizabeth Ross aka Liz - a young police officer at the Haven Police Department. She is corrupted but stable, with the ability to force anyone she touches to tell the truth.
  3. Jacob Flynn - A demon hunter in his early twenties. He is aggressive and holds a bitter resentment towards corrupted humans, due to an incident 2 years ago involving one of them and his girlfriend, Elaine Baker. Elaine is now in a coma at Haven General Hospital.
  4. Elaine Baker - A young women currently in a coma at Haven General Hospital. She is corrupted but stable and holds the ability to enter the dreams of others. Her abilities only manifested after she fell into the coma.
  5. Darren Erickson - The supposed leader of the H.O.D.A. He is however a mere figurehead nothing more.
    Keith Moore - Headmaster of Haven Public High school. He is currently involved in a deal with a demon called Lethe which is feeding off the memories of his students.
  6. Harper Lin - A quite, shy and somewhat fragile, high school student. Her powers have skyrocketed to the point were she can bring a person back from the brink of death. However, her powers now have a dangerous flip side, she can cause the internal organs of anyone within a 3 meter radius to fail instantly. She is currently locked away by the H.O.D.A.

Green eyes fluttered open, only to squeeze shut when she felt something pierce her skin and remain there. Eventually that sharp pain became faint, and she reopened her eyes. "W-where..." She began, only trailing off when she realized there was a oxygen mask over her mouth. The bright light of the room caught her off guard, squinting to see the silhouetted figure with his mask. "It seems you've met with some unfortunate events, but don't worry. You'll fine, nothing to bad, a mild concussion, but you'll live."

She nodded dumbly, still a bit confused with everything. The doctor left her side, and she was left to think by herself. She was just attacked by a demon... A demon. She visibly shuddered, hoping that no one saw the movement. Those two... didn't they bring her to the hospital? She moved her head to look at the door, managing to catch the sight of the nurse speaking to the male student. She sighed, they were still here? She barely-scratch that- didn't even know them. Now she began to wonder what happen to the other man, he wiped her blood onto him, she simply hoped he was still in one piece.

She closed her eyes for a second, wondering how long they'd keep her here. She may have injuries, yet she was a corrupted. Could it be those rumors? The ones saying that those registered corrupted in the H.O.D.A will begin testing on her? Will they just lock her away? She bit her lip, hoping to god nothing happens to her. She never wanted to be come this in the first place.

#, as written by Shaodow
Larken only spat and took a wide stance akin to that of a lineman in the NFL, bracing himself to counter whatever the young hunter had in store for him with brute force. He watched closely as the hunter lunged at him whilst allowing the blade to drag through the pavement, he instantly recognized it as nothing more than a display to mask the true attack for dragging the blade in such a manner did little more than to hinder the momentum of a swing. The moment the hunter's wrist began to arch with upward momentum he dug into the ground and lunged his right hand forward to catch the blade but incidentally caught a fiery punch instead, stopping the hunter and his sneak attack cold in their tracks as his gauntlets continued to blaze with flames. He smiled at the shocked expression on the hunter's face, clearly he was expected that sneaky attack to do some damage.

" Heh " he grunted " wrong choice " Largen's hand clamped onto the gauntlets and the fires were snubbed out and with great force and speed he cocked back his left, firing it off as yanked the boy towards him so his face would collide with his fist, causing greater damage with both their momentum. A direct hit to the skull like that after he's fed would kill damn near any living creature walking the earth, fortunately for the hunter the girl had escaped before he could ingest her blood, his punches could still kill a human but there was a chance a battle savvy man like him would survive it. Though he likely wouldn't be standing afterwards.

Will cringed as the demons attack came for him. It hit hard, wills body dropped to the ground. "Is that all you've got?" will said with a grin as he spat blood at the beast. Largen approached for a finishing blow when Will threw a vial of the sleep serum at him. it broke on his chest but did no harm. Largen now standing over will lifted his foot to crush Will, but before he slammed down Will lit the liquid.

Will slowly stood. He collected his sword and began walking away. Looking back he could see the serum wearing off slowly. "Well settle this next time!" He shouted back to the demon as he walked out of the demon's sight.Dizzy with vision fading Will now headed to the hospital to hopefully save himself. He kept walking until he passed out in the streets.
