Greater Than Demons

[Juvenile-River]

This is the OOC topic for the roleplay "Greater Than Demons"

This RPG is about the battles between angels and demons, and the humans at the center of it.

Feel free to discuss this topic out-of-character here.

Ill try and make a angel character some time soon. Don't hold me to it I am busy at the moment so I might have to withdraw that.

I have always had a soft spot for angel and demonic rps but I have a couple of questions I would like answered first. First of all when you mean the Angels and Demons can take on human form am I to assume they have a primary form aka a true form that they assume when amongst their own. And secondly would it be possible to create a Sparda type demon ( Sparda from Devil the May Cry series). You know sort of the classic anti-demon type demon if you know what I mean.

[thepsycoman]

Can I just point out to you that instead of true demons they are just fallen angels as demons.

[Derek Smith]

Depending on which religion you subscribe to all demons are fallen angels. After all Lucifer ( at least according to most branches of Christianity and Jewish faiths) who is arguably the original demon is a fallen angel himself. And if we are to take into consideration the fact a third of the hosts of heaven fell with him it is thus that all the original demons are themselves fallen angels as well. However there is talk so called lesser demos where created by the original demons and thus are not fallen angels. Even hell itself according to most Judo-Christan beliefs was created as a separate realm/prison for Lucifer and his fallen angels i.e The original demons.

^^^What he said.

Let me just say, though, that this RPG does not represent what I think real angels and demons are like. For example, in the Bible Jesus implied that angels did not come in male and female like we do. I took the creative license to change a few things.

I'm happy to see that two players are already showing interest in this RPG. Looking forward to reading some character profiles. Speaking of which, I still need to make mine. I tend to prefer playing the bad guy, so I'll most likely make a demon, but I may make a good angel or a human character too.

1. Yes, but an angel's "true form" is not dramatically different from their human form. A demon in his or her true form, for example, may have black wings, long fingers with sharp black nails, and red eyes. I'm not a big fan of the animal-shaped demons in mythology. But really, an angel or demon are always in true form, but they may create an illusion to hide their wings, halos and such from humans.

EDIT: Oh, and demons can have horns too. I'm okay with horns.

2. You mean like a demon who hunts after his own kind. Well, it's possible I suppose, but unlikely. Demons are limited to actions in two worlds, Earth and Hell. If a traitorous demon ever dies and return to Hell to recuperate, they wouldn't exactly be welcomed home. So this would put that demon in an bad position. But this demon could try to make his permanent home on earth and try hard not to die. I can imagine what with the kind of chaotic society that Hell is, there would be a few "trouble makers."

If you want to make an anti-demon character, you have my permission.

[thepsycoman]

I will soon make that character.. And yeah I know about Abbadon or Satan or what ever name you want to give him. I go to a christian school so I know most of that bible stuff. I believe somewhere in the bible it leads on that Satan and his followers were 'mutated' by Satan's pure evil and the rests near pure evil.

Okay done added the character. Hope you like it, If you have any questions or want me to change anything just ask me.

[Juvenile-River]

I've approved both characters. The only problem I have with one of them is very minor.

Pericoloso's profile says that Alan was in a position of second in command. In this RPG, the ranking system is a little less rigid. Some angels are of higher rank than others, but to call one second-in-command implies a bit of favoritism on God's part.

Like I said, though, this is very minor. I understand it as Pericoloso was simply of high rank.

Now we need some human characters. I'll probably make one later.

[thepsycoman]

Okay I see what you mean lol, Ill change that later I was just messing around with that to see what you had ment by ranking system.

[Juvenile-River]

We now have two new characters, both of them humans. That brings our count to...

5 total characters
4 players
1 angel
2 demons (including an anti-demon)
2 humans

This is good enough to start with, but I will wait a few more hours (maybe one more day) to begin.

[thepsycoman]

Okay sounds good.

[Juvenile-River]

Okay, I've made the opening post. Now let's get started.

[thepsycoman]

[thepsycoman]

Don't worry about it. I didn't really have any plans. Whatever hasn't been posted is pretty much free game.

[Fabricati.Diem]

I must assume everyone is in the same city by now?

[thepsycoman]

Is anyone still here?
