<strong>Name</strong>: Devilbane<br/><br/>Devilbane is a traditional heavy metal band formed in the late 1970s, having produced a number of albums and hit singles over the years. Despite their rise to success in the 80s and a portion of the 90s, the band was doomed to fall back into obscurity as the original members left the band one by one and were replaced with new ones. Today, not a single original member of the band remains in the lineup, making them Devilbane in name only. These days they are only able to play in small venues for little pay, their old fans having all but abandoned them. They happened to be in town for a gig when they were dropped into a fantastic world not unlike the ones in the songs they sing about. In the real world, musical instruments make noise, but in this new world, they carry extraordinary powers.<br/><br/>Charles Crow is the new lead singer of Devilbane, and has some pretty big shoes to fill as the replacement for Hal Ford, who was the face of the band until he left in the mid 1990s to pursue a solo career. In both worlds he acts as the leader of the band, calling all the shots. In the fantasy world, he can sing to change the moods of others, encouraging his allies and discouraging his enemies, and can sonically blast away foes with a Heavy Metal Scream(tm).<br/><br/>Glenn Downing and Edward Fretts are the guitarists. Though they joined the band at different points, Devilbane has always had two guitarists, which has been a key part of their sound. Devilbane's old guitarists were quite well known for their dueling guitar solos, and Glenn and Ed are looking to live up to them. Now that they're in the fantasy realm, playing the guitar conjures fire for Glenn and lightning for Edward. A dueling guitar solo now creates a devastating firestorm that makes the pair a force to be reckoned with on and off the stage.<br/><br/>Neil Carey is Devilbane's drummer, and has come a long way since he joined the band in the early 1990s. His drumset was very simple at first, but became more complex and elaborate over the years until the road crew needed another truck just to haul it. Easily the rowdiest of the bunch, Neil was transformed into a hale berserker when he entered the fantastic realm, and his sticks became spiked clubs. He now pretends that the evil beings threatening the town are drums.<br/><br/>Ian Gibbons is the bassist and the oldest member of the band, having replaced the original bassist in 1986. He is the only member to have a full-on beard and has let it grow out to make him stand out from the rest. He is rather quiet compared to the rest, though he does show profound wisdom the few times he does choose to speak. In the fantasy world, the sonic waves emitted by bass strings stimulate tissue regeneration in living things, and so laying down a solid bassline can have remarkable healing powers.<br/><br/>I will add more details as I work them out.
