Horror of Horrors: Toastburner B GMs Again! - Page 4

For some reason, I read Hawk's last post as "I'd hit it!"

I'm sure there's a compliment in that.

Wait...when did I start to take this idea seriously?

Does that mean it'll happen?

In any case, from where I'm sitting, there's a lot of options for working Demons in. For instance, you could do something like Supernatural people (Vampires, Werewolves, Catgirls) are other races that happens to live with humans, or that they're descendants of not-evil demons from way back when. Just toss the gate of hell in and you've got the world's set up. I don't think you need any help with Exorcisms really.

Anyway, there's actually a lot of routes to mixing demons in. Those are just the two most obvious I could think of.

I figure if you stick around the Evil Return central power structure being biblical you can always pitch the near-humans with the Nephilim. If you'd rather be vauge with their background and make the demons the sideways element the idea that Demons are a dimension off seem to make Exorcism work just about anywhere. To exist a demon has to exert its willpower onto the mundane world and exorcism is just the mental contest between the two parties.

I'm sure you'll find something, just give it some thought.

So, hypothetically, if you did cross them somehow, would it be BBW protecting the mother, or would the protectors still be in it? I'm not sure why, but being part of an organised unit puts me off an RP. Don't ask me to explain it, I've tried. Having both BBW and regular protectors trying to safeguard the mother sounds pretty interesting though...

You mean the things from the early bible that no-one knows what they are?

Well, they do have a cool name at least.

Edit: I second Steel's suggestion.

Overcast · 04-25-2010, 07:34 PM

Yeah those things, you can stick pretty much anything you want in there and end up clear biblically.

Also I'm feeling Steel, but mostly because of, of your track record of guiding a group rather than an actual dislike of working in an organized unit.

Toastburner B · 04-25-2010, 11:41 PM

Well, I wasn't so worried about the demons themselves, more the entire calling exorcisms and holy relics and the like as a different form of magic when people are rocking psionics instead of magic. It was a nice, easy way to have holy abilities without having to dabble in actual religion.

Well, I suppose the easiest thing to do would be just to call it a possible subsection of psionics and leave it at that. I think I made it sound more of a complex problem than I actually meant it.

And as for having Protectors in addition to Big Bad Wolf Limited, that would have to depend on how many sign-up for this trainwreck. It won't do us a lot of good to allow both if there isn't enough people to justify it.

...So, basically, it has gotten to the point that people want to do the ER/BBWL crossover, huh?

Looks like it.

So, turning into a Werewolf falls into that sort of thing too?

Krylo · 04-26-2010, 01:13 AM

I think turning into a werewolf falls under being a werewolf.

Astral Harmony · 04-26-2010, 01:57 AM

I wonder if the Mother of Hell could become a werewolf?

Then again, that would kind of kill the whole defenseless part.

Maybe the Mother of Hell could be the Paradox. Ooh, plot twist!
