<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>~ Setting ~</strong></span><br/>The story takes place in the capital city where the King of Krum rules. The castle is located near the Great Lakes and is surrounded by small and large villages that prosper due to their position on fertile land.  Krum is still a peaceful kingdom despite the rough times in which it chose to rise and prosper. This is probably the main reason why after long debates under the pretense of a false peace treaty, the two representants of Heaven and Hell chose Krum as the most suitable place to carry out their wager. The Demon Lord came up with the idea and The Archangel approved gladly. They would surround the kingdom with mixed energies and isolate it from the rest of the world. Then they chose a handful of humans, inhabitants of the capital city and its surroundings, as subjects for their experiment.<br/><br/>The Demon Lord send his most powerful demons to corrupt the King and his advisers, to induce greed and excessive desire for power in their minds. The Archangel chose the most virtuous of angels to enhance every human’s free will in order to repell the demon's acts. The demons were offensive, the angels gave protection, that is how it always have been…until the tides have turned and the Archangel decided to strike back. He chose a Sacrifice in order to oppose and in the same time help the King into making his own decisions. The Sacrifice would have no power and no influence on others except by proving worthy of authority through virtue. The angels knew that this takes time and that they had to protect the Sacrifice until it would become powerful enough to carry its mission. Alas, the demons took advantage and chose a Hunter to stop the chosen one from fulfilling this task, by death or persuasion. And so our story begins….<br/><br/>It takes place in a world much similar to ours during the Middle Ages.<br/><strong>Characters I need:</strong>The Demon Lord<br/>The Archangel<br/>The Human King<br/>The Hunter<br/>The Sacrifice<br/><strong>Characters I welcome:</strong>Any original characters that are part of these three races.<br/><br/><strong>Succubus and Incubus</strong><br/><br/>Natural enchanters and also predators, the succubi and the incubi are known for their intense lust and desire for humans which they hunt constantly in order to bring chaos and disaster into the world. While other demons are destructive and openly wage war on humankind, the succubi and the incubi prefer to work from the shadows. They seduce and persuade the rulers of mankind, inducing ideas into their heads or simply making them unable to take their own decisions, enslaving their bodies and minds at the same time.<br/>They are also shapeshifters, but only during night time. They hide troughout the day when their real form is revealed and rarely show themselves to others, especially to humans.<br/>Their society is an hierarchical organization, yet they follow their leaders with the inner desire to always rebel. Most of them are ruled by fear, so their leaders use fear as the main form of ruling. The succubi and incubi rarely bond, friendship and love between them are as rare as patience and mercy are in their personality traits.<br/>Most of them are vindictive and souless. They are also deceiving and quite charming and can pose as innocents when they want to.<br/><strong>If you choose a demon</strong>you can never betray your kind or show positive emotions.<br/><strong><br/>Human females and Human males</strong><br/><br/>Unaware of the war that is going on around them in almost every aspect of their lives, humans have a way of adapting to any kind of situation that proves to be the key to their survival.  Although the future of mankind depends on the general outcome of the war between good and evil, humans lack initiative when they have to choose sides. In the demon's perspective, they are like puppets ruled by their instincts and that is what makes them easy to rule. In the Divine's perspective, humans are lost individuals who just need guidance in order to come home.<br/><strong>As a human </strong>you will have to deal with morality more than any other race and every thought, word, action or decision will have consequences leading to your fall or ascension.<br/><br/><strong>Feminine angels and Masculine angels</strong><br/><br/>As part of the divines, angels carry out their missions with loyalty and eagerness. Faith and love is what defines them and they are happy to serve their Lord in any way. While love for humankind is one of the traits they must share in order to carry their mission, all romantic relationships are forbidden for them. If an angel should fall in love with a human, the respective loses its immortality, but has as many chances of redemption as humans have. Falling in love with a demon is strictly forbidden and the only punishment for it is believed to be death. Angels also believe that they would not turn into demons, for that would be too cruel for them so they just disappear and their names are ripped from the Book of Life. No angel has ever fallen in love with a demon so the outcome of this remains unknown to this day (for those of you playing as an angel this might be a new twist to the story).<br/>They have ethereal form and could gain physical form if it's necessary for their mission, but they can stay in it only a short period of time (until sunset). Angels are not shapeshifters, they have one physical form for their entire existence.<br/>When an angel falls in love with a human and marries the person before having intercourse with the said partner, the angel can keep its ethereal form and can make use of it, but the periods are changed this time. The angel can use it only until sundown, after which it turns into the physical, human form.  If the angel and his lover have intercourse before getting married, the angel can no longer keep its true form and thus turns fully human.<br/><strong>Things you need to know when playing angel:</strong>you have a set of inner rules which you must constantly follow. If you fall in love, you struggle between morality and desire.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;">Characters (always updating)</span><br/><br/><strong>Master: Jane Storm</strong><br/><strong>Title/profession:</strong>Protector of the sacrifice<br/><strong>Name:</strong>Zefiriel<br/><strong>Age:</strong>102<br/><strong>Race:</strong>angel<br/><strong>Sex:</strong>feminine<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Zefiriel</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Physical traits:</strong> almond shaped eyes of honey color, ruffled chestnut hair and a healthy complexion.
