“Hey boys,” he started, glancing up momentarily before looking back down to his Death Note, “Wanna play a game?” A twisted smirk played up on his lips as he pulled six -completely unused- Death Notes seemingly from thin air. The others inched away slightly, all eyes on Ryuk. The Death God dropped the Death Notes onto the card game and leaned back, still smirking.
“Where’d you get those? You didn’t steal them... did you? If the king finds out--”
“Don’t worry about it, Kalek,” he snapped, shooting a glare at the younger Death God, “I think we can all agree that old joke is too busy at the moment to truly care.” It was true, and no one knew what had been bugging the old Death God-- but he had ordered them not to worry about it. He said it was something meaningless to them. “I have a proposition for you all. As you can see, I have six perfect Death Notes in front of me. I’ve taken the liberty of writing down the rules of the Death Note inside.” He paused and let the five other Death Gods pick up a book and flip it open.
“Stop beating around the bush and get to the point of this ‘game’ of yours,” Zosir, one of the other Death Gods, snarled.
Ryuk sighed, “So impatient. I say we ‘lose’ our new Death Notes in the mortal realm-- and see what happens. As soon as our human gets caught, or gives back the Note, we return here. The last one in the mortal realm wins.”

Just an every day person in the year 2015. That’s what you are. Minding your own business as you head about your day-- maybe you’re heading to school. Maybe work. Where ever. It doesn’t really matter-- what does matter is that black note book you see falling from above. No one else seems to notice it, so you pick it up and look it over. Of course at first you think it’s a joke. Note books don’t kill people.
Maybe you should try it. Just once.
Notes;
Spoiler
Death Gods: Usually odd/sort of grotesque looking. They can tell the humans whatever they want about the Death Note-- at their own desecration. They can also offer their human ‘Death God eyes’ for half of their remaining life span. For every name written in the Death Note they receive the dead person’s remaining life span (By writing names in Death Notes they can make themselves practically immortal). They do not need to eat/sleep/go to the washroom. Most importantly, they can only be seen by people who possess a Death Note.
(I don’t think I’m going to make them an available character. *If* you think you could handle one, PM me. I’ll consider it... don’t cry if I say no.)
Death Note holders: Can see Death Gods, and can trade half their remaining life span to get the ‘Death God eyes’ which allows them to see a person’s name and remaining life span-- which seems to float above their faces. If anyone else touches their Death Note they will also be able to see and hear the Death Gods. These guys probably aren’t all fruity and friendly. If they’re willing to try the Death Note and not just throw it away-- then there must be something wrong with them.
The World: This is an Alternate Universe to Death Note. It’s still very much Earth, but there was no Light. No L. No Near and Mello and Matt. No one knows of Kira and L’s great fight, and no one knows what a Death Note is. It’s only about three years difference from our time, so no super advanced technology. Maybe there’s a new phone that everyone has called the Pear phone, but nothing fancy.
This’ll take place in New York City. Just because New York is cool and it’s better for both us and the Death Gods if they’re close together.

- No minimum word count! Just make sure all posts are more than one paragraph and help advance the plot.
- Swearing; it's allowed just don't overdo it. And keep it reasonable; No F-bombs!
- Romance is allowed but no sex scenes; No one needs to read about details.
- Claim as many characters as you want-- just make sure you can handle them.
- No fantasy creatures are allowed. Just Death Gods.
- Don't God-mod. Please, it's not fair. And no Mary/Gary Sues either. They annoy me.

- Please have a name and place at the top of each post. Such as Name | Place OR, for example; Mia | Town.
- Please do not kill another person's character without permission; it's unfair, and not to forget mentioning, godmodding. We really don't like that. And besides, no one likes it when they're randomly killed.
