Evil's Return: The Sign-Up Thread

[Astral Harmony]

Got home and finished my profile with Toasty's guidelines. Isn't she so hawt that it makes you want to defend her with your life because she's going to be horribly, horribly raped, murdered, or raped and then murdered by Greater Tentacle Demons?

[IHateMakingNames]

Well, I decided that a demon PC could at least lead to various interesting scenes, so I figured I'd try and make one. Instead of making the entire thing first, figured I'd see what is plausible. Not PMed because you are apparently flooded with those.

Demonic Hybrid with a hunter. Hunter goes in, kills some cultist trying to summon, gets mortally wounded. The being summoned demon makes a deal to keep him alive by taking his body, desperate hunter agrees, they fuse. Various possibilities (Hunter winning, overriding personalities, etc) lead to demonic hybrid being a protector.

Religious organization A has a demon, like Hellsing with Alucard.

S.E.C.A./Society has a demon, like Hellboy.

A Fallen attempting to regain his place in Heaven by closing the Gates of Hell. Weakened somehow, probably stripped of power.

Outcast who wants to close the Gate so his demon lord can't come get him. Again weakened somehow, probably injury during escape.

Edit - Also, what is the extent of mythology in this? Is every religion right? Are all myths true? Are fantasy writers writing non-fiction?

Grarh. Stuff happened today- no sign up sheet now. Tomorrow.

[musicmage4114]

Character Name: Zack Freemont

Gender: Male

Age: 15

Organization: Society

Class: Prodigy incantation mage

Special Abilities:

Seraphic Guardian: Unlike most people, Zack is able to communicate with his guardian angel. He can also cause it to manifest for short periods of time using a 30 second incantation, during which time it can only defend him, not attack. The defences rendered by the Seraphic Guardian amount to what a normal human could do (interpose oneself between the charge and an incoming projectile, grapple defensively with an attacker, etc.) with the exception that a Seraphic Guardian is able to deflect low- to mid-level sigil spells. Doing this drains the Seraphic Guardian's power very quickly, however, and it can only do so about three times before disappearing to recuperate. Duration of effect is three minutes without any spell deflection or until three spells have been deflected, whichever comes first. Deflecting a spell costs one minute of summon time.

Zack's grandfather is a member of the Society, unbeknownst to the rest of the family. Except Zack, that is. Zack unexpectedly walked in on his grandfather casting a very powerful incantation, and in return for remaining silent, his grandfather promised to teach him everything he knew. Zack turned out to be a magical prodigy, quickly mastering the art of sigil magic and moving on to incantations. Now a sophomore in high school, Zack has been assigned to protect the Mother of Hell. While he is never below using sigil magic, his incantations are his greatest strength. His family is very rich and well-known, and were they to find out about his... talent... it would have long-reaching repercussions.

Equipment/Belonging: Zack keeps a large deck of sigil cards on his person at all times. He has dozens of these decks, each consisting of unique assortments of cards. The quality and workmanship of these decks varies as well, with some being simple solid-colored cards with a single, simple sigil drawn on them, to cards that resemble the most high-quality tarot cards one could buy. For ease of use, Zack also has a few protective sigils tattooed onto his arms, legs, and back, so that he is always touching them. Other than that, he carries a small, cherrywood wand topped with a ruby, which he uses as a focus for his incantations.

Ok my character is updated and ready for approval/nerfing!

EDIT: Again!!

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Still only me and Mes in S.E.C.A? Oh well.

I suppose this means the pair of us will be working together, seeing as how it's a government agency and they're hardly going to have numerous operatives working solo on the same thing.

Oh and I call dibs on the nukes Mes, if and when they are needed. It's quite good knowing you're one of the few people who can unleash some of the most devastating weapons in an entire RP!

EDIT: Slight addition to my character. Added a codename based on his notourious skills, and added an extra line in the equipment section.

[Demetrius]

Heh, yeah good call on Mes not having the nuke button, I can just picture the tyrannical horror of having her itchy finger on the "We all die so there!" button. *shudder*

Looks like this should be very interesting. Here's hoping we don't kill each other! Cheers!

[Akamaz]

ok, here's a final of Kasey

Character Name: Kasey Dravenoft (case)

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Organization: Warden

Class: Umm.. Gypsy Biker (see the description below)

Special Abilities: he knows a bit about sigil magic, more things that are useful for combat and detective work (he prefers to use everyday items to make his sigils, a true sight sigil may be inscribed on a pair of sunglasses, or a communication sigil on an earring

Bio: Kasey was raised among one of the Romani families that still travel around the US keeping to the nomadic lifestyle of thier gypsy ancestors. Often Wardens would travel with the clan to make it easier to hide (generally the law seems to take a dislike to private hunters, and sometimes try to pin the unexplained on the hunters themselves.)

Things went well for kasey, one of the hunters that came by from time to time was Nat Jackson, who gave just enough of a look of the lifestyle to snare young Kase. He (Kase) learned what he could of the Sigil Magic from the Drabani and learned fighting wherever he could. His time spent with the Drabani has made him an introspective, quiet youth.

One night after his initial training was complete, his teacher had a vision. In the vision Kasey was standing before a great gate, sword in hand, With Nat and several others at his side. He loaded up his belongings on his trike and immediately left in search of Nat.

Some Basic Information about his fighting style: He's more of a melee fighter, preferring to get close in. His fighting style is a hodgepodge of several "soft" and grappling styles that he calls "Ass Kick Fu" along with some knife fighting mixed in

Equipment/Belonging: Custom "Supertrike" motortrike, Slightly beat up black leather jacket (with kevlar armor pads sewn into the lining) White muscle shirt, Studded fingerless black driving gloves with spirit strike sigils engraved into the studs, Black engineers boots, metal chain link belt (silver) with an iron padlock for a buckle. Necklace made from iron nails in the shape of a cross.

[Astral Harmony]

Laurella (Armored Bishoujo): "Let me get this straight. Everybody is trying to blow themselves and everyone else up with nuclear weapons because of this whole Mother of Hell thing AKA me."
Elissa (Mesden): "Yep, that's pretty much the gist of it."
Laurella: "Well...that's it, then. I mean, fuck it, y'know? If I am destined to open the gates of Hell, the demons are going to be pretty pissed off to find that we humans kicked the shit out of our own world long before I gave them the chance to."
Elissa: "So, you're saying that all we're fighting for is one big waste?"
Laurella: "Aw, hell no. We humans know how to blow the world up a lot better and cooler than any army of demons. Let's just keep it up at the pace we're going."

On a side note while browsing everyone's profiles (gotta know my protective peeps, y'see?), I see that Loki's character and my adoptive SECA agent father are both named Rick. Luckily, my Rick dies in the first post so that should be cleared up pretty damn early.

Hey, who says my finger isn't just as itchy?! In fact I'm probably MORE likely to unleash nuklear armaggeddon than Mesden! Also, my character has a habit of using slightly "excessive force" at times. 2 Years ago he leveled a sizable portion of south america with 3 fuel-air bombs just because there was a demon nest hidden deep in the rainforest. He considered that, "a job well done".

Looks like this should be very interesting. Here's hoping we don't kill each other! Cheers!

Cheers!

...

You do know we're all going to kill each other, right?
