This DT will contain some important information regarding the storybook and will be used to answer any questions.
Souls
Souls are the essence inside every living thing. From a human to a tree, from the three to the leave, it is anything that is living. No, a rock does not have a soul – sorry. Souls are seen by Soul Catchers and Exorcists as white dancing light.
The afterplane is a soul sanctuary and The Organization believes all souls are born pure, whether the living thing was good or bad does not matter, therefore all souls should be sent to the afterplane to rest.
The Underworld is where demons come from. With enough force, demons can create little portals or tears in the Earth's surface in which they can enter the world of the living.
The Organization
They are a special branch that trains Soul Catchers and Exorcists. Inside, they have a team system which is set up as four members per squad. Two Exorcists and two Soul Catchers with a partnership between the two. These squads are given special missions to investigate any disturbances caused by any sort of paranormal event. Fighting demons and sending souls are their main task, however if anything disrupts the living (especially demonic forces) they will take action.
Demons
The enemies. Demons erupt through the cracks in the underworld and come up to wreak havoc amongst the living. When a human is killed by a demon, that soul is then transferred into the demon’s body where it acts as an energy source and in some cases, too many souls can cause a demon to morph. The demon feeds off these souls and becomes stronger. The more it kills, the stronger it becomes.
Weakness: Soul weapons. They are the only thing that can truly hurt a demon and when a demon is killed with the light, it is sent back to the underworld in where it is back to square one and might even come back out again.
How to extract and send souls guide:
1. Find the demon that has souls inside. You can tell differentiate which demon has possession of a soul and which doesn't by looking at their eyes. Red eyes - no soul. Yellow eyes- has souls.
2. Do not kill demon! If the demon is killed, both the demon and soul will end up going to the underworld and we don't want that. You will have to knock a demon out cold first. The host must be alive for the Soul Catcher to extract the souls inside. (Place hands over the heart of the demon, the soul is taken from the palm of the hand.)
3. Extract soul(s)
4. Kill demon.
5. Have Exorcists send the soul. (repetition of step two.)
Soul Weapons
Every Soul Catcher and Exorcist has a soul weapon. This weapon is an extension of one’s body and is made of pure light. Pure light meaning it is the soul of that warrior (When I say extension, I seriously mean this weapon will be like wolverine's claws or something. It will have to connect to the body so be creative.). Most soul weapons can't 'break' but it's possible. If something happens to your weapon than the possibility of you dying skyrockets. Soul weapons are only used against demonic forces and will do nothing to humans. However, the Soul warriors will continue carrying a weapon of their choice around just in case.
Questions and Answers
(Decided to put this up so no one asks the same thing twice.)
Q. Is it possible to close portals?
A. Could be, no one has found out the technicalities of closing portals yet. -However that would be wonderful, no? (I encourage you to find ideas.)
Q. What happens if I kill a demon with just a regular weapon?
A. Regular weapons do minimum damage. The demons have the ability to heal themselves so you might think they're dead, but they're not.
Q. What happens when a soul is not sent to the afterplane?
A. When the human dies, the soul leaves the body. Without proper sending it is left to wander the world of the living, lost until a catcher finds it, takes it in, and then is sent by an Exorcist.
Q. Exactly how does an Exorcist send a soul to the afterplane?
A. The portal to the afterplane lies in the hands of the Exorcist. Putting your hands above the heart of the vessel and sending the soul like that. The soul then disappears, fading away. :') It's a beautiful sight. . .
Q. Are demons afraid of the light?
A. 'O course they are! They hate 'soul light' which is what soul weapons are made of and that is why only soul weapons can hurt them.
Q. Can I has conversation with souls?
A. No.
Q. Can I go to the afterplane? Can I see it?
A. No.
Q. Well then, can I go the Underworld?
A. No.
Q. What happens to a demon after it dies?
A. It turns into a pile of dirt.
Q. Do humans know about Demons and the Organization?
A. Yes, to some extent they have some basic knowledge on that topic. As for the Organization, they're secret. Though, humans know that Soul Catchers and Exorcists exist but the information regarding their powers and all are kept a secret. It's a bit complicated...Let me know if you have any specific questions on this topic.
