Brought By Fate // OOC

In a world that used to be full of love, peace and unity is now the complete opposite. Compassion and sympathy mean nothing and everyone clings to material objects and arrogance, believing they are the only things that matter. In the current day and age, humans have become so dire and conceited that God decides that he must punish the human race for succumbing to the sins that were put before them to overcome. He then creates the beings known as Hellion, a demon with a human façade. They are born as humans, but as they age and progress into maturity, their demonic persona awakens. The Hellion’s powers increase more and more until their body cannot support any further. By then, the Hellion would have spread chaos and destruction through the world until everything is eliminated.

The world has hope, however. The part of the Hellion’s soul that was taken out to turn them into what they are was put into someone else. These people, the Composers, are the only ones that can stop them. There are some catches though. The more the Hellions develop into their demonic state, the more their Composer weakens. If the Composer is hurt in any way, the Hellion receives the same damage. No matter what the outcome, the Hellion and its Composer will be spiritually attached. If one is killed, the other will die shortly after. There is a way to stop them completely. It is possible for a Hellion to turn into Angelo, or angelic persona, instead. This happens when the Hellion feels a positive feeling they rarely experience.

But don't get anything wrong, it isn't going to be easy. Along with the troubles, Angels from Heaven have descended to Earth, each with their own goals whether it is to aid the Hellion into becoming Angelo or trying to put obstacles in their path so that the humans will receive their justice. As these beings fight for the fate of the humans, they have no idea they even exist let alone that they are warring against each other for their destinies. Every Hellion, Composer, Human, Angel and Demon must decide inevitably; which side will they choose?

Descriptions


The Hellion species are the main characters in the story and out of the seven that are unleashed into the world, we are playing only three. The Hellion are very powerful but in a fight, power is the only thing they can rely on. Their abilities include superhuman strength, speed, regeneration, and as they are exposed to their negative emotion their powers grow. Their killing style is heavily influenced by their chosen sin, for e.g., Gluttony would eat its victims while Lust would “make love” the victim to death. The Hellion’s have three stages that they undergo. The Horiffi stage is when the Hellion fully blooms into terror. The Hellion’s human side would lose consciousness as the demon inside would take over. At that stage, nothing can stop it from tearing everything apart. The only thing the Composer can do is sacrifice him/herself. The Avera stage is the Hellion in its ordinary state, assuming its human mask. The last phase is the Brillia, the point where it is possible for these dark-natured creatures to become Angels, or something close to it. Their powers are the same but as an Angelo, their human side is able to control the body and its actions.


The Composers are also main characters and we will be playing three as that is how many Hellion we will have. Composers are ordinary humans infused with a small part of their Hellion's soul. They are a source of weakness for the Hellion as they are spiritually linked. Their abilities include being able to sense where their selected Hellion is, calming the Hellion’s demon persona into unconsciousness and possibly healing powers. The Composers are able to lull the Hellion either through their voice or touch. Composers possess an attracting quality to their Hellion, like two magnets. They will be drawn to each other physically, but what they think mentally is up to you. Composers are also an extreme weakness to Angels although no-one will ever know why.


Angels cast a contrasting difference to what people believe they are to be. Angels, just like humans, have their own different personalities and each have their own opinions. Even if they are servants of God, they have their free will and have choices to abide or rebel. The Angels weren’t chosen for their purity and righteousness, they were chosen for their sense of justice and honesty. Each Angel has their own individual responsibility, a role that they must play even through the war over humanity. Angels know a lot, something that came along with working for God. They are very powerful, stronger than almost all Demons but weaker than Hellions. They own great skill in combat and strategy planning. An Angel’s only weakness is a Composer’s presence; it is like what Kryptonite is to Superman.


Demons are a very diverse species and have many special abilities and unique traits. What humans know as vampires and ghouls are really Demons with similar capabilities. On the power chart, Demons are third most powerful, after Hellion and Angels. Most of the inferior Demons tend to follow a more superior one, acting as henchmen for their leader. Not many of them travel in groups to avoid suspicion. Killing styles and limits depend on the Demon’s disposition and tastes. Older Demons are inclined to be the more powerful and experienced. These Older Demons are powerful and experienced enough to be able to defeat an Angel, if needed. However, they have a tendency to be the more peaceful ones of the race. All Demons have one thing in common; their Achilles' heel. Burning of the whole body to ashes is the most successful way to kill a Demon, fire being a disadvantage for them.


The weakest race out of them all, humans are relatively defenceless. Majority of them all are ignorant to everything that is happening around them, using their foolish logic to explain everything in a way that they can accept it. Although their genus is full of flaws, there are some that hold certain aptitudes that no-one but a human can acquire. Oracles are the most uncommon and valued, having the power to see into the future, present, or past. There are also Demon Hunters who hunt the Demons around their area. Most humans have no magical powers whatsoever, but some specialise in combat, mainly with weapons.



The roleplay is set in an isolated metropolitan area, the population statistics quite high for its size. It has many buildings and skyscrapers in the heart of the city and it takes pride in the beautiful view it shows during the night. Since this is a modern roleplay set in current times, in terms of technology, everything is the same as it is now. In the city, the most common form of transport is walking or driving. Given that the roads can sometimes be full of traffic, people walk occasionally, making the center of the city a little crowded at times.

Cheers for the invite, profile going up soon, probably an Angel or Composer, will think up something. Just to check, in mannerism to how Hellions have a traited Sin to go with, might Angels have a polar opposite?

I'm also putting a profile up shortly - just want to check about Demons (seeing as I plan to be hunting them) - do they have specific weaknesses like silver, holy relics, or the like? I'm deciding between having a traditional hunter, with swords and martial arts, or a high tech hunter with guns. Or a mix.

Thanks for the invite! I'm going to work on a profile now. If I don't finish it soon, I'll have it up for you later tonight or tomorrow. ^.^

I'm applying for an Angel position. =]

Maestro, not Near. And oh my, this was sprung on me rather unexpectedly - as seeing that I somewhat left Role-Play Gateway due to my muse being a bit... dead. But, since I did co-create this with my good friend eNzy, I suppose it would be inappropriate of me not to join. I haven’t written anything in awhile so it might take me a bit to get up a skeleton. Hell, I might not even make one until I write a few posts. I will be making a Hellion since after all I was the one who chose the name for them. As for ‘Sin’, I will be choosing Gluttony.

When it comes to weaknesses, I don't really like the idea of silver, holy water, and all that... crap. You are free to come up with your own weaknesses, but make sure it mixes well with the ‘Sin’ you have chosen. Otherwise, the only weakness you have is your Composer and the urge to give into your inner-demon. For example, Lust will… well not be able to control himself/herself. As for Angels and all the other races that were added to this Role-Play, same thing, come up with something. Also, this is not an option. I am making it a requirement that every character has some weakness that can be exploited.

Alvaron, I have one word for you: Absolutely.

I may add a second profile at a later date, as well as info on her weaponry.

Two things (or more.):

My profile is still a bit WIP.

Are demons and angels common knowledge to the world?

If so, to what extent?

I would like to state that this is modern times and starts off basically realistic. People have heard of Angels and Demons in movies, television, books - even the bible - but no one has ever seen or heard of anything like this. Basically it's modern times with a twist because the dawning of the apocalypse is near and we now have the power to change whether it occurs or not – through Angels having free-will and the Composers. But seeing a Demon waltz down the street and rip someone in two would be news to everyone just as an Angel soaring through the sky would.

Even the Composers and Hellion are new to this because one moment their living their lives and the next instance destiny takes hold and they suddenly feel a little awkward. An esteemed straight A student could all of a sudden have the need to start going on a mass killing spree while the Composer - the most beautiful innocent girl you have ever seen - finds herself drawn to this person.

I didn't really read the front page so if it wasn't mentioned: The Composer does not need to fall in love with the Hellion. A Hellion can love a Hellion, a Composer a Composer, and so on and so forth.

Yep yep, t'was just checking - my character ascended to being an Angel in the middle ages and as such has experience since then on til this point.

I only skimmed your profile since it's late and I have a lot going on in my head at the moment - so it's hard to really focus. But, I really like how you had your character come from the Middle Ages and made it where during the time Demons and Angels and of the like were more commonly talked/thought about – and practically real. Makes me think that she sort of came from the Dark Ages where monsters actually existed and made themselves known, this being a time where such ‘legends’ sprouted. Her having experience in both life and death should add an interesting element to this role-play that I look forward to seeing in the future.

Same with Para's profile; I didn't really look at it YET, but a Demon Hunter will also add to the storyline in a most calamitous way. I am quite eager to see what happens when she is finally introduced to the 7 Hellion. And something that I just thought about! Few people are gifted with knowing the existence of creatures that come straight from lore. There are a lot of mysteries in this world and some may sought after them. With this said, if anyone wants to form a small group of professional hunters I think that would be very engaging.

@ Near: Sorry for springing this on you! >.<

@ Parabola & Alvaron: Accepted by me. Maestro will have to go through it before I can add you to the Accepted Profiles list which I will make once some profiles are fully accepted.

I would also like to note that I want even gender ratios. So that means I need to accept two males before any females.

Hellion/Gluttony and Angel positions have been reserved.

Are previous reservations being honored, or is this a clean slate?

It’s perfectly okay eNzy. Also everyone, I’m currently working on something very special for this role-play and people have already started to sign up for this aspect that I am adding to the story. There is one spot open and it must be a male character. So, if you’re interested, please message me immediately. Otherwise, I shall reveal this devastating plot twist very soon.

Edit: By the way eNzy, not sure if you truly know who that person is in your avatar, but I hope you do because I love her. <3 Shizuka is by far one of the best characters from Vampire Knight.

There we go. Last edit and my profile is done. Hope it is good enough!!

Name:
Isha Fairwether
Nickname(s):
She just goes by Isha
Gender:
Female
Age:
She looks 20
Species:
Angel
Occupation:
Battle Coordinator. In short Isha is in charge of planning battles, getting supplies and choosing not only generals but also who they lead and which soldiers go where. Most often she is also on the battle field, being in the back and working with the generals on what to do and where to go in order to ensure that the battle goes well and to provide victory.
Powers/Abilities:
Sword fighting- Isha is a master with a blade, having trained almost every night for as long as she could lift a sword. She does not often use her weapon, but she is surprisingly fast and agile with it. Most of her attacks are well planned and thought out, making it hard for her opponent to get the better of her or to surprise her, but it is possible.
Hand to Hand combat- A skill she picked up from a higher up, she learned that it could come in handy when she is not able to use her sword. She is not an expert at it, but she finds that she is good enough at it that she can hold her own until she is able to either get away, or get backup.
Telekinesis- Being a natural born trait, Isha is able to use this at will. She does not often use it in combat, liking to use her sword or her hand to hand combat skills. She often uses this skill for piratical everyday uses, and most of the time she does not even realize that she is doing it.

Weapon(s):
Scimitar- with a four foot long blade and a one foot hilt, the entire weapon is five feet long. it is fairly light, but made of a strong metal that is hard to bend or break. The hilt of the sword has blue and red jewels the spiral from the gold pommel to the cross piece before it turns into the elegant silver blade.
Personality:
Isha is a naturally outgoing woman. She has a quick sweet smile and an outwardly friendly feel. She is not easy to anger, but gets irritated rather quickly, and is defensive about her job. Sadness is something she knows well, but never is sad in front of others. Isha believes that sadness is a personal emotion and that it should only be felt in private where others can not see or hear it. The war is a large issue for everyone, and Isha is no stranger to war, though this war is not something she enjoys. Though she does her job without question, Isha believes that it is better if the war is ended and the earth left to the humans. The Hellions are a hated race and she believes they should be condemned with the demons, though she never voices any of it to anyone. The only real emotions she shows are happiness and determination in order to end this war quickly and without too many casualties.
Short Bio:
Isha was created at the same times humans came into being. She was first charged with showing humans the arts of fighting, guiding them but never really pushing them into anything. After her initial job was no longer needed she was given her current job, the God finding that with the demons, they would have to work hard to protect the humans from the evil. The first battle that she herself was in, was a complete disaster, which almost made her lose her job, and her wings. Lucky for her the God was forgiving and he gave her another chance, which lead to a very successful win. It felt good for her to be able to plan out a battle that resulted in a win for the God, and that lead her to train with her sword and in hand to hand.
Isha did not discover her power for telekinesis right away. It took her quite a few years before she finally discovered what she had and it took even longer for her to master it. She kept it a secret from many of the angels for a long time, she knew they would know she had a gift, but she didn't want anyone but he and the God to know what it was, not until she had mastered it. By the time the humans had started to build towns and cities for the first time, she had mastered her talent, and she began to use it any chance she got, flaunting it a bit to show the others she had complete control. The other angels were annoyed by this, but she did not mind, she was proud of herself.
Having mastered her talent and training in hand to hand and training with her sword, Isha had decided that she needed armor for when she was in a battle. So she went down to earth in order to watch the humans work on their armor. By this time the humans had started to make armor and weapons that were more efective in killing. Isha felt a bit proud that the fuel of war she had been charged with planting had grown so well, and seeing how effective they were with the weapons made her more proud. The art of crafting the armor was something she wanted to know more of though. Knowing that it is best to make your own, she learned from some of the best and took the knowledge back with her, creating the armor and the sword that she had now. She asked the God to bless her armor, and that he did, allowing her a lot more then just armor. It gave her a special insight into battle, allowing her to plan battles, even as one was in progress. This made her job more complicated, but she was more the willing to do it. A challenge was always good.
The new war came, and this is where Isha saw the true effects of war. Many thousands of lives were being lost on all sides, her planning and all the information that she got was never enough to effectively win a battle, let alone the entire war. She grew bitter toward war, but she still did her job just as she had many times before. Each battle she planned she would be in it, fighting, killing and gathering information on what happened and how things went. Each battle became harder to plan, but with the information she gathered, she was able to plan better and soon battles were going better. They were still not winning every one, but they were loosing less angels and they were able to hold off the forces better. Even now as the battle rages strong, Isha is looking for more better ways to plan the battles, hoping the one day she will find something that will allow her to plan the last battle, and finally end this terrible war.
Appearance:Above and to the left is in her armor. The armor is made of the same metal as her blade, though it is specialized to bend and move as Isha does. The glowing lines are the magic that was etched into the metal to make it as a second skin rather then large clunky armor. The symbols are to show her alliance to the God, and it just looks good. The glowing blue cross on her helmet allows her to see all the way around her, giving her a total 360 degree view and making it hard for people to sneak up on her, though if someone has some sort of invisibility, they are able to easily sneak up on her from any direction.. Below is the link to what she looks like. What is not shown are her wings. Their color is blue like her hair and they glitter as if covered in small droplets of water, or small diamonds. The feathers are smooth as silk and her wings always smell like a spring wind, making everything around her smell that way when she fly's.

Feeling:Isha mostly feels Love, feeling that Love could be the thing to win the war.

Personality:
Short Bio:
When the universe had only just began… and nothing more than a faint flicker of light existed, God lingered high-up in the heavens, loathing the place where one would first learn the true meaning of being alone. With each divine breath that he took, life too took in the crisp air, and glistening wings sprouted from their backs as they graced the heavens with their splendor. The times were grand, and as the stars began to finally twinkle endlessly in the sky, the feeble moans of humanity could be heard.

He was one of the first, an angel of the all knowing creator in who brought life onto all of man. Unthinkable as it was to commit treachery against the absolute, it was indeed done, and the heavens were shattered and broken into two. Defiance against the jealous God would not be tolerated so they were all cast from heaven, beings of the celestial locked away in the deepest darkest pits of the abyss; and because their souls were corrupted, so would their selves, forever cursed as hateful demonic monsters... inside... and out.

@ Jace: You can use your old profile, if you'd like. Just copy and paste it onto this thread.

Here's the old link, so you can dig your skeleton back up.

You will see in time eNzy. Not sure if you noticed since most people don't, but, my avatar is actually of Kaname Kuran.

There we go! Finally done with my profile. I hope it is what you are looking for. I thought hard on what I was going to put.
