One year and five months ago, the Deep-Stone exploded. The Deep-Stone had been a device connecting our world and Hell together, so that our great magi could study Hell and create counters for it.
However, the Arashi Hell-Cult infiltrated the complex containing the Deep-Stone, and attempted to increase the power of the connection, to bring Demons to our world. However, the Deep-Stone reacted violently, exploding.
Instead of the connection breaking, it found itself without restraint.
The Breaking occured. A good tenth of the world was swallowed by pure chaos, reduced to a crater larger than the greatest nations. Demons poured forth, and in a few days time, society had fallen.
The Demons allied themselves with the Hell-Cults. Any humans who didn't side with the Cults was slaughtered without mercy, few exceptions existing.
However, four months ago, my companions and myself secured the ruins of the Capital City of Sciella, what was our nation. We activated the Ward-Stone, of which destroyed demonic energy, and defeated my father, Blake, leader of a Hell-Cult. We've had four months of peace since, and many others have arrived in our safe haven.
But will it stay safe for much longer?
~ ~ ~ TECHNOLOGY ~ ~ ~ Swords, guns, crossbows... Less than modern, let's put it like that. Due to the accessibility of magic, most "Tech" items like guns work through enchantment. And by guns, I'm talking muskets, not SMGs....
~ ~ ~ MAGIC! ~ ~ ~ At least read the Angelblood sections of this: http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=50077217
~ ~ ~ DEMONS ~ ~ ~ Black-blooded monsters who wish to make our world their own, to spite angels. They slaughter any humans who refuse to worship them, with some exceptions. Some Demons are rather friendly to humans, such as Nightmares. See this thread for specific knowledge: http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=48639731
~ ~ ~ RACES ~ ~ ~ We're all humans, basically, with some variants. No Elves or Dwarves though. Ick. Variants include...
~Superhumans: Stand from about 6'6 to 7'4, have increased strength, speed, and agility. Have very poor magical ability, though.
~Mutants: Magic can have some nasty side-effects, like causing your children to be born with wings and whatnot. Don't be overpowered with your mutations if you're a mutant.
~Golems: Living constructs of metal, they were made to mimic humans. They are capable of emotions, though not as much as humans, and can use magic. Their downfall is that they can easily be deactivated by magic, and can take up to ten minutes to self-reboot.
~Half-Demon: Infused with Demon DNA, these humans find themselves increased in physical, magical and mental capabilities- at the cost of sanity. Half-Demons are known to rampage randomly, indiscriminately.
~ ~ ~ YOUR CHARACTER ~ ~ ~ -Names- Either something fantasy-like (Draek, or Aer) Or a historic name (William, or Isabell) [Don't use those four examples, though]
-Past- You'd likely be someone attracted by the giant yellow dome over the city, and probably settled here for the safety. You've been surviving in the Wasteland for about seventeen months, so you were probably of a profession that kept you physically able or in good fighting ability - Such as Paladin, Gunsman, Mage...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ RULES ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ No ubering. No god-modding. No pummeling. Grammar is a must. Spelling is a must. Story-mode is a must. Biography is required. No 'Mary-Sue' characters! Be original. Don't need to be creative, just don't copy anyone else. Be reasonable. Don't argue with me over my own RP. Don't take OOC fights into the RP. IF YOU NEED TO KNOW ANYTHING ELSE, PM ME OR REQUEST AN INVITE TO THE PARTY.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ CHARACTER SHEET ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Name: [Pick a name for the character] Gender: [Male or Female. Golems lack gender.] Aje: [Be reasonable. Anything above 10 should logically be fine.] Personality: [Such as friendly, cold, sarcastic, enthusiastic...] Appearance: [The actual body. Not clothes. Describes hair, eyes, skin...

Name: William Ny Gender: Male Aje: 26 Personality: Rather warm. Due to his father's actions, he feels he owes society. Friendly, but doesn't try too hard to make friends of enemies. Appearance: He has pale skin, where there is skin. His left arm, right leg, and top-left quarter of his torso are steel, as well as a large section of his head, encompassing one eye. The metallic eye is a glowing green, and he's covered the other eye with an eyepatch. Has rather short, black hair under his hat. Clothes/Armor: Wears jet black pants, as well as black robes with red runes inscribed on them. He wears black leather boots, as well as a black hat (Due to only half of his hair being left, you know?) Non-Armor Equipment: Carries a pike, and uses it as a staff. Also carries around two swords, which he will animate during combat. Any other items: Nah, nothing else. Magic?: Yes. Also has demonblood.
Biography: The firstborn son of Blake Ny, a noble, William found himself pursuing studies in magic. His father, a Super Human, didn't find much interest in the field. William's younger brother, Jakob, was much more alike to Blake and found himself in Blake's favor rather than William. William, at the first chance he got at the age of sixteen, left the household, feeling unappreciated. Feeling discouraged by his lack of favor in his own household, he sold his soul to a Demon-Spirit for power. As well as taking his soul, the Demon-Spirit cursed him to find only chaos should he try to find love and happiness. He soon after fell in love with a woman named Sarah, but finding the true effects of his curse, he was forced to watch helplessly as Sarah's life was snuffed out by demonic energy. He then left to live in solitude, feeling like a burden to all of society. He spent many years alone, but when the Breaking came he found himself travelling the Wasteland, searching for others - Life alone in the Wasteland was near impossible. However, he found himself accompanied by Vakkin Evon, Xarna Blackwood, Aer Alose and Fitz Isfansi, as they re-activated the Ward-Stone and defeated his father, Blake.

He has tanned skin, and stands at about 5'9", with a well-muscled build. He has three gruesome, claw-like scars running across his left cheek.

Non-Armor Equipment: A Flamberge, and a small dagger. Any other items: Family locket, tome from his fortress. Magic?: Yes. Biography: Vakkin is an ex-paladin who had shown exceptional skill in the ranks of the Fire Paladin Order.

They remain his best friends. |

Name: Aer Alose Gender: Female Aje: 28 Personality: Rather friendly. Doesn't like crowds too much. Prone to being over-emotional at times. Appearance: Pale skin, with scars on her stomach and back. Moderate length blonde, wavy hair. Light blue eyes. Rather short, and thin. Clothes/Armor: Wears steel armor in combat, but otherwise wears a white shirt with blue pants. Wears an enchanted cloak outside in not in armor. Non-Armor Equipment: A large bulwark shield and a longsword. Any other items: A golden locket, given to her by her adopted father, Sael. Magic?: Yes
Biography: Her parents were killed off by a terrible plague. Before she and Ekaerus, her brother, could be slain by it as well, Ice Paladins came to the town and cured her and Ekaerus, as well as others. She and Ekaerus, who was four y.ears older, grew up under the wing of Sael, the leader of the Ice Paladins. At the aje of ten, when Ekaerus began training as a Paladin, she became envious of his training and requested access into the Order from Sael. Despite her being female, Sael allowed her to begin training - He disguised her gender via wrapping around her chest and wearing armor at a constant. She trained with the others, passing off as the adopted, mute son of Sael. Sael and Ekaerus were her only friends and allies, both assisting her in keeping her gender secret. Over time, her brother fell in love and grew distant with Aer, leaving Aer with her only friend being Sael. Despite her strong love for the man who had basically become her father, she constantly wished that Ekaerus had still been her friend. She tried in vain to go with Ekaerus on a short scouting mission before the Breaking. When the Breaking occured, she was off trading, since she was rejected by Ekaerus, and wasn't in the Order's Fortress, of which was on land that was swallowed by World's End. Sael had been inside, and as such she lost him. Her brother was supposed to have returned by then, and would've died as well. Only her and the other paladins in the Capital were left from the Ice Order. They vowed to never forsake their duties as a paladin, but all except her met a grisly death at the hands of demons and cultists. She met up with William, Vakkin, Xarna and Fitz, and re-activated the Ward-Stone with them, as well as defeating Blake. |

(New one.)
Name: Kavira Sanche (San-sha) Gender: Female Aje: 31 Personality: Determined, sarcastic, slightly arrogant. Mercenary attitude. Appearance: Border black hair, brown eyes, pale skin, 6'1", slender. Clothes/Armor: Leather armor with tight-fitting flannel clothes. Non-Armor Equipment: Two hatchets, four large daggers, and a sword. Any other items: A small amethyst ring. Magic?: As Kavira puts it, "Shoot, no." Biography: A retired mercenary, Kavira has been sticking to the shadows since the breaking. She has moved to the capital, hoping to find safety and work.

Name: Draek Ikar Gender: Male Aje: 32 Personality: Cold, angry. Not too thrilled by circumstances, at all. Appearance: Being a Half-Demon and a Superhuman, he's about 7'10 in height. He has VERY short black hair, and dark brown skin. He has red, glowing eyes. Right arm is extremely scarred. Clothes/Armor: Wears blackened chain armor in combat, but otherwise wears beown leather pants, a white shirt and a black cloak over. Non-Armor Equipment: Pair of rather large broadswords. Any other items: Cultist insignia. Magic?: Yes. Demonblood, as well.
Biography: His parents had abandoned him, and he had been raised by the Martial Paladin Order, later becoming a Paladin himself. The moment the Breaking hit, he high-tailed the Order and became a Cultist. He was experimented on, and turned into a Half-Demon. He has, as a result, increased physical and magic capacity, and looks rather normal, save for red glowing eyes and size. He finds himself often unleashing demonic power at bad times, becoming nearly a full demonid. This can happen at any time, and he will lose his mind to desire for bloodlust and violence. Recently, Draek has come to the Capital, seeking escape from Cultists who are looking to return him for more experiments. |

| Kavira, in some tavern in the capital city, sat at a back table with a half-empty drink, absently grinding a knife into the wood surface. |

| Draek ducked his head down as he entered the tavern. He was much taller than the door. He handed the tavernkeeper some scrap metal (The general currency of the city), and waited a moment for his drink. When the tavernkeeper returned, he took his drink and looked about. The tavern was rather new, and as such their were only a few usable tables. Near the back he spotted some woman with a knife seated. He decided, being rather new to the city, to try and start conversation with her. Taking his drink with him, he took a seat at the woman's table. "You some kind of merc or bounty hunter, I take it?" |

| "What's it to you?" Kavira said, raising an eyebrow. Her voice was slightly slurred, due to the fact that she already had several drinks. This fellow was unusual: red eyes, and absolutely huge. |

| "Just wondering," he said, before taking a drink. "If you need any more drink, I'd be happy to pay," he said. She seemed like she'd already sunk a bit of Metal on drinks already. |

| Kavira shook her head, as if to clear the foggy feeling from her mind, and slid her knife back into it's sheath. "I dunno." she said, a bit sleepily. Suddenly, she looked at him straight. "Who are you, anyways?" |

"I don't like being chased around by big, angry lunatic demons." she said, forgetting the fact that he was ex-cultist.

| Draek laughed. "That's understandable," he said, eying the visible weaponry on her. "You seem like you were used to the action life, though. You just now deciding you want to settle down a bit?" |

"It paid well. I ain't the same on the inside. Well, I wasn't in the past. Maybe I can do something different here." she took a swig of her drink, and hiccuped.
