...for we have sinned.


It was always rumored that the apocalypse would one day come, but with all the false calls in the past no one believed them this time. We should have believed them.


The apocalypse has finally come. God has come back to earth, taken up all the faithfuls, and have left the sinners to die. Everyone good or pure is now gone, leaving to world to criminals, drug addicts, and murderers. You are one of the left behind, but there is hope for some of you, those with angelic descent. But just as there are Angels there are Demons, and some of you are of demonic descent, some of you just want to watch this world burn.

Your Role:


Exorcists:

These are those of you of angelic descent.

It is your job to roam this now forsaken earth and evacuate demonic influence. The people left behind are all evil in their ways, yes, but demons have begun their possession of the earth, and its your job to protect the rejected from them. You must remove these demons and kill them. But the main goal of these exorcism is to restore God's faith in humanity and get him to give the Earth a second chance. This can be achieved by convincing as many people as you can to atone for their sins. And, also, you are saving your own soul from destruction.

There are two types of Exorcists:

Extractors - those who remove the demons. They are the only ones with the ability to bless, heal, and seal. Sealing demons requires taking the demon's soul and putting it in something inanimate blessed by an Extractor. This method is used when the demon is too powerful to be killed. Once the demon is sealed it's easier for the Vanquishers to destroy.

Vanquishers - those who do the actual killing of the demon. They are the only ones with the power to kill the demons. They use magical weapons (not raw magic) to fight. They use magic runes to fight. Rune fighting involves taking a symbol and then invoking it. Runes can do a number of things, depending on what you draw, so use your imagination. Invoking should be done in latin, so to invoke a fire rune your character could say "Ignis" or "Ignis bestiam".

If the exorcist fail in their quest they will be handed over to the mercy of Lucifer for all of eternity.

Demons:

Those of you of demonic descent.

It is your job to prepare the world for Lucifer's arrival. Your only goal is to mess things up as much as you possibly can. This means you're the ones possessing people, spreading around sin. You don't want the return of God. Lucifer has granted you a spot in his army if you can stop the return. You like things this way, and you plan to keep them exactly as they are now.

There are also two types of Demons:

Summoners - those who call the demon forth. Summoners are the only ones who are able to call a demon to them willingly by process of a summoning ritual. They fight using the demons they summon, but they can only summon one demon at a time. They are also able to use a small margin of curse type black magic.

Implanters - those who infect the body with the demon. They are the only ones with the power to seal demons, just like Vanquishers, but they are able to put the soul in people and animals. They fight using the people they have possessed, and can wield up to ten bodies at a time, but the bodies become weaker the more you wield at once, and are already weaker than a pure demon soul. They are also able to use a small margin of attack type black magic.

If the demons fail... well... try not to fail. There will be no mercy, or any relief in death.

Profiles:

Please remember that all characters are still human once you take the powers given to them away. They have been humans all their lives, and are still human, just with the powers their respective lords have given them.

Be creative with these! I encourage you guys to take both an Exorcist and a Demon spot. It should be fun writing from both perspectives. :)

Keep in mind that Exorcists or Demons did not exactly ask for the bloodline they were born into. Maybe some could even be cheering for the other team...

Angel and Demon suggestions.

Sin: Anger, Greed, Envy, Gluttony

Appearance:
Spoiler
188540_167657439952437_6223833_n.jpg
Nemier herself has a petite, seductive figure that would entice any man, she has long Egyptian like hair that goes down to the mid part of her back. She wears boots, a button up white blouse, black loose pants and is always carrying a flute, that later becomes Occupanti de Vitas when she summons Genesis to the world.

This is Nemiers flute, in which she can play a number of tones on, and be able to summon Genesis to reek havoc on her enemies.
Products23611-1200x1200-286553.jpg (80.49 KiB) Viewed 3040 times


Personality: Nemier is a very kind girl, always on her feet thinking, she curses herself for not following her parents in the Christion religion, she could be following them to Heaven present day. But no, she didn't listen. So instead she is constantly on the run from the demons that are hunting her, but with a few songs she picked up on the flute that weaken demons and protect the group she is in from bodily harm and can heal them from any wounds that may have suffered.

Weaknesses and Strengths: Nemier is very good at thinking on her feet, always trying to survive and think ahead of where she can escape in situations where she's being hunted by the demons and Angels. Nemier is also very fast on her feet despite being a flute girl, she also has a nasty temper and secret that she is guarding closely and away from everyone else in the group.

History: Nemier has a long history, she was born from a christian family who didn't want to force anything on her, as a result of this she never became a christian. But her parents always asked her to join, but she refused, always sleeping in on Sundays, never doing anything that related to religion, but for some odd reason she got into playing the flute when she got depressed or angry. Between learning the flute and school she had done track, which because of this has made her very fast when it came to running away from demons.

When the Apocalypse came, she barely noticed, she was playing her flute at the time and it had kept the demons well away from her because they had despised how she was playing the flute it had kept them away from her. Survivors find sanctuary with her has she plays because demons won't dare to come near her as she plays it.

Other: Nemier is up for love - Bisexual

Name: Genesis (Has no last name.)

Descendant of: Lucifer

Class: Implanter

Age: Eons and eons old.

Sin: You name it, she's done it.

Appearance:
Spoiler
unknown_raseru.jpg
She has long blood red hair with as dark as night eyes, she wears a black leather tube top and a light brown half jacket. Long black leathery steel like wings showing that she is a demon, she wears black leather finger less gloves and metal bracers. She also wears loose combat trousers and Gothic combat boots, and finally her sword Occupanti de Vitas (Latin for Taker of Lives) is always in her hands, or on her back.
unknown_raseru.jpg (9.11 KiB) Viewed 3048 times


Personality: Genesis is the kind of girl that isn't bothered by much in the world, she's normally not bothered by much and is far capable of doing what she wants when she pleases. Tho sometimes she has her head in the clouds often staring up into the sky a mumbling something people don't hear from her, she looks down on people who are unable to defeat her in battle, she's earned the title of Eximius Miles, but in other times mainly in battle shes a cold blooded killer with no conscious notion of right or wrong. There's a reason why shes known as the Eximius Miles...

Weaknesses and Strengths: Genesis has little weakness and plenty of strength in her, she is very strong and can easily slash though anything with her sword, and has speed that outmatches any other demon in the world. Genesis has weaknesses, altho there odd weaknesses. First off she's scared of the dark, she'll never go out at night and is only ever seen in well lit areas. She also has a thing for red headed women, she's not a lesbian, but she has a thing for them.

History: Genesis is the one and only daughter of God the Lord himself. Her history starts out in Heaven, she was one of two true children of God. The other was Jesus, Genesis was there during the war in Heaven and had fought along side Lucifer against her own father, Genesis was jealous of her brother and thought him the favorite of there father. So Genesis resorted to fighting along side Lucifer in order to garner the attention that she seeks from her father. But not all was went as planed, Lucifer was defeated, and all the angels that had fought against god were cast from Heaven.

Genesis had given up her spot by her father to fight along side Lucifer and paid a terrible price for it, she had waged everything to get everything. And lost it all in the end, now Genesis and Lucifer are plotting together. Genesis is rumored to be the match of Lucifer, but there has never been a real match between the two. Tho its because she has killed one thousand Angels and one thousand demons has she earned the name the title of Eximius Miles. Genesis is on Earth now, and leading the demon army against the world in hopes of preparing it for Lucifer's arrival.

Other: She has a sword known as the Occupanti de Vitas, which is Latin for Taker of Lives.

Name: Maciel Azrael (Exorcist- Vanquisher)

Descendant of:

Class: Vanquisher

Age: 30

Sin: Wrath & Pride.

Appearance: For being a poor man, he's not that bad looking. He assumes he's over six feet tall (he's never been able to measure himself to make sure) with a pretty muscular build. His hair is pitch black and bushy with a thick-ish goatee, which is a large contrast with his pale skin. His eyes are blue, which make them his only really defining feature. He wears a white t-shirt with a sweater vest over it, as well as blacks pants with a pair of shiny shoes.

Personality: With wrath being one of his sins, he is very violent. He is known to get angered very easily, and hates being spoken down to. While he is calm and able to think his way through situations, he will often turn to violence when he can't find a better solution. Pride comes with his sense of being unstoppable. Getting into quite a bit of fights in his time, he was dealing with others as swiftly as possible, mainly due to his large size. He's not used to being hurt physically.

Weaknesses and Strengths: His short temper and calculating mind. You take your pick on which is which.

History: When he was young, he started hearing 'voices' in his head that he quickly associated with the devil. He was raised in a cult of sorts, one that was faithful to the Lord in rather different ways. While the details aren't important since he quickly broke away from the group, he had learned enough to resent Satan. As such he found it fit to rid the world of him in every way possible.
While he would like to go by the title of 'exorcist', prior to God's return, they had gotten quite the bad reputation with the public because of frauds and the portrayal of them through social media. He now goes by the title, 'Assassin of All That is Evil'. He thinks it sound cooler or something.
He was almost never able to rid anyone of demons while working as an exorcist, either due to the fact that his method were unorthodox (and real), or because the client wasn't actually possessed. The few cases he was able to work trained him for what was to come today.
When God returned, he wasn't disappointed that he wasn't take to heaven. He knew all that would be left were sinners, crooks, and demons. In fact, I don't think anything would've made him happier.

Other: He carries around two weapons, a two foot long machete (for people he doesn't like) on his belt, and a foot long staff (for demons he doesn't like) usually in his back pocket. He also has a small rock in his pocket to trap any demon he can't immediately kill.
But anyway, he's a nice fellow.

Name:Priscilla "Puma" Pursell

Descendant of: King Pursonhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purson

Class: Summoner

Age: 25

Sin: She accidentally thwarted the work of god with her prediction of the future.

Appearance: Image She isn't pretty at all. She has a perpetual scowl and rarely smiles. Her hair is naturally black and very curly. If she were to redye it she would actually look hispanic like the rest of her family. She's fond of wearing white, simple clothes.

Personality: She isn't a lovely person. She is blunt and forward and has no use for small talk. She doesn't no like talking to people, but she likes to get down to business. She will tell you what she thinks of you and she doesn't think about the reparations. Puma isn't a bad person, truly. She just knows who she is, and she knows what she needs to do. She is very goal oriented and driven. Her loyalty can't be bought. It can only be earned. She has times when she can come off arrogant and priveleged. All she wants is to go to heaven, she thinks it's impossible since she has demon blood, though if an opportunity was offered for to her to redeem herself, she would take it up in a heartbeat.

Weaknesses and Strengths: Weaknesses- She has no filter, and it tends to get her in trouble. She will come off as cocky because she says what she thinks. She has a crippling fear of blood. If she smells blood other than her own, she will immediately start gagging or vomiting. Because of this, she has trouble in her line of work, though it's definetly helpful to be a summoner.

Strengths- She is excellent at hand to hand combat, prefering it because on most occasions it does not draw blood. She is very good at taking hits, she's basically Rocky.
She is a fast learner.

History: Puma didn't grow up very privileged. She grew up in the projects with her father. Her father got lung cancer when she was sixteen. He died shortly after being diagnosed. She went to live with a close friend of hers. God had decided it was her friend's time to join Him. Puma, unbeknown to her that it was a crime, warned her friend of his death before it happened by a vision she had. God told her after he eventually took her friend, that she was her ancestor's responsibly. From that point on she was taught black magic and summoning.

Other: She keeps a huge black battle axe on her back. She only uses it for intimidation, as that would draw to much blood for her.

Name: Ahlael ‘Lael’ Lupa

Descendant of: Duke Zepar

Class: Implanter

Age: 27

Sin: sexual impurity/prostitution/thievery/lying

Appearance: 5’9, pale, and beautiful, Lael has always been a man hunter. She has thick auburn hair that she wears down. She has lush lips that are always slicked with red lipstick. Her dark brown eyes are huge and framed with long black lashes. She’s curvy and wears tight, red clothes, often leather. She has a tattoo on her back of a bare tree with an empty noose with crows circling the tree.

Personality: Lael is edgy. She does what she wants with little care of what others think. She craves power and will do whatever she needs to do to have some influence over you whether that’s giving you money, drugs, or sex. Her father made women fall in love with men. Well, she’s can’t do that, but she does have a certain charisma that makes people want to like her. It’s not magic. It’s just her. She’s highly emotional, will snap or laugh or cry at the slightest thing.

Weaknesses: Lael’s not very good at any physical feats of strength, catch her off guard without her souls nearby and she’s as good as defeated. Being high strung, she’s often illogical and fast to act. and Strengths: She’s best at reading people and playing with psyches. She’ll poke and prod until she has you right where she wants you (no matter what that requires of her), and then she’ll pounce. She also has her father’s legion of 26 spirits in the wings waiting for the chance to help the boss’ daughter.

History: Lael has some daddy problems. Zepar always wanted a male descendent, but all he got was a daughters. Her 'real' father was never around. Her mom was a heroin addict who would pay for drugs before rent. Lael learned at a young age that sex paid for a lot, and if not that, there was always a weakness to extort in a person. She watched her mom overdose, could have saved her, and didn’t. She worked the corner for a while, got tired of it and fell in with a few conartists. That’s what she was doing with

Other:

~~~

Name:Ansam Nahet

Descendant of: Uriel

Class: Vanquisher

Age: 33

Sin: Pride/ Idolatry/ Refusal to Forgive or Repent/ Violence/ Alcoholism

Appearance: Tall and lean, Ansam doesn’t look like the type to be vanquishing demons. He has thick glasses, wire rimmed glasses and muddy brown hair that’s silvering at the temples. Half the time, he goes unshaven. His striking blue eyes are usually bloodshot, and he always looked rumpled and unkempt. He wears khakis and a holey t-shirt. He wears a wedding ring.

Personality: Ansam is easily focused and very intelligent. However, drunk, he’s a hot mess; it takes. He’s fairly laid back most of the time, not caring what happens as long as it doesn’t affect him too much. Cross him though, and expect to be chased until you die. There is no other option. When in a fight, his single minded determination and ferocity often wins the battle. He’ll always blame another before he blames himself. He only wishes he could follow his family to Heaven.

Weaknesses: He’s not the strongest out there. His addiction gets in his way a lot. When he’s focused on a problem, he can think of nothing else and doesn’t look out for his wellbeing. and Strengths: Give him a problem, and he will solve it, no matter how long it takes or how much thinking he has to do. Though he looks tame and academic, a primal ferocity comes from him when he’s fighting.

History: Ansam is too smart for his own good. He skidded through school and found a job with ease. He never stopped to thank God for his blessings. He found a nice girl, got married, and immediately had a baby girl. All the while, he worshipped knowledge. He was sure he would always succeed, always be happy.
God made it easy on Ansam. He sent Uriel, his ancestor, in a dream to tell him the path he was going down was wrong. Ansam scoffed at such a message and continued, refusing to admit he was doing wrong.
There was a break in at his house, and the robber killed both his wife and child. He blamed God for the disaster, drank his way out of his job, all his money, and his nice cushy life.
That robber is no longer alive.

Note: This SB begins on the first day of the apocalypse. If you guys want to, though, we can do a time lapse to a few weeks later. But the "first day" posts are important and we need them. I also like the idea of our characters already being familiar with the people around them so I'm in favor of the time lapse too.


Name: Ruil "Kanga" Gro

Descendant of: Beezlebub

Class: Summoner

Age: 28

Sin: Murder, Drug Dealing, Mafia affiliation, Pimping

Appearance:
Spoiler
Image


Ruil is tall - 6"3 - and looming, with long, lean arms and legs. He's skinnier than he probably should be, but with muscle where his fat should be. His hair is white/blonde and uncombed. One of his eyes is a bright green and the other is hazel. His skin is almost transparent pale and he has dark circles under his eyes.

Mias keeps his nails painted, his favorite color is the burgundy red that is most common to his fingers. He wears flamboyant clothing, like leather, spandex, lace, and mesh. Mostly leather. He's always decorated with heavy jewelry, two daggers, and a gun on his hip.

Personality: Ru is flamboyant, he likes laughing, making jokes, clowning around, etc. He's not a really serious person, even on his jobs. He'll kill you with the punchline of a joke still fresh on his tongue. He's sadistic, he doesn't see any bad in the things that he does. He does them because he actually likes them. He enjoys the drug dealing, the murder, and putting women on the street. He loves power. Now, he does get angry, but his frowns are just wider smiles. The day you see Ruil's anger represented on his face is a day to fear.

Ruil doesn't tolerate other's talking down to him. He doesn't care who you are, you will not disrespect him. He follows his own orders and will do whatever he pleases. He's not the pushy leader type, he's perfectly content with laying back and watching other people do what they do, but he will not be assigned a place and told to do what and when. If he doesn't feel like doing it then he won't, and if he has a better plan he's okay with going off on his own.

Weaknesses and Strengths:
Weaknesses: He's hard-headed and doesn't get serious very quickly. He's too lazy for his own good and prefers sleeping to a lot of things. He doesn't take instruction from anybody. Has a strong, crippling fear of the dark.

Strengths: He's a great fighter, he's a master in Bajiquan, a style taught to him by his adoptive father. He fears nothing and no one. He knows how to get what he wants.

History: Ruil was born in Taiwan to American parents, but he knows nothing of his background or history because he was immediately given up to an orphanage, his birth a mistake. His parents were travelers, and during a trip to East Asia Ru's mom found out she was pregnant. The decided to stay in Asia until the baby was born, but were unwilling to give up their nomad lifestyle. They kept him long enough to give him a name, and he was on an orphanage doorstep the day after his birth with a note pinned to his blanket. But he didn't stay there for very long.

Tai Xihui took Ruil immediately from the porch and back home. Xihui had always wanted an heir of some sort, but his wife has long since been dead. He had no drive to find anyone else. Xihui was a great father, he taught Ruil how to fight and also how to survive. He taught him discipline and leadership skills. The only downside was that Xihui was also a mafia boss, and so the mafia was part of Ruil by default.

With power comes enemies, and this was nothing uncommon. When Ru was eleven one of Xihui's main competitors used him as bait to get to his father. They stole Ru and kept him captive in a dark basement. Everyday for a nine weeks they beat and tortured him until Xihui was able to discover his location. The gave the man no hints or clues except a note saying "You have two months to find him before he's dead. Show up with less than 28959000 NT$ and you get to watch him die." Ruil left the situation permanently scarred and with a crippling fear of the dark.

When Ru turned eighteen he killed his first man, by the age of twenty he was doing hit jobs on the regular for his dad. At twenty one had his own little collection of prostitutes Xihui gave him ownership over as a coming of age present. By the age of twenty-two he was making his way to the states to spread his father's business.

When Ruil got to the states he had no problem finding a place. He was rich, he had his women and put them on the street from the moment their plane dropped. He made a name for himself quickly. It wasn't until a year later that he got into the drug selling business per his father's request to broaden their horizons. He became the top drug dealer and manufacturer in New York. All his business did was grow until Ruil, or as he's more widely known, Kanga was a name everyone on the underground knew and feared.


Other: His streetname "Kanga" is stemmed from his nickname Ru (Roo). ((Kanga-roo. xD I don't know, guess I've been thinking about Winnie the Poo too much.)) Only his prostitutes, followers, and people from the underground call him Kanga.

Up for love, no preferences.


Literally spent all my time on Ruil's profile and Mias' is still half done. I'm such a slacker. Dishonor on my family. :(

Mind if I take one extractor and one implanter? :)

Name: Jamie Walker
Descendant of: Duma - angel prince of dreams.
Class: Extractor
Age: 18
Sin: Incest, suicide attempt. (Lust, Envy.)

Appearance: 5'7, slender. Big grey-blue eyes, dark brown hair and fair skin. Very innocent-looking. Wears whatever he thinks is comfortable, often jeans and t-shirt with his brothers old leather jacket. Tends to look a bit lost in thoughts. He has one scar on each wrist.
Jamie is always clinging on to Robert when they are together (which is most of the time), but whenever they are separated Jamie can't stand still, keeps fidgeting with his hands and his eyes never rests on anything for more than a few seconds.
Spoiler
Image


Personality: Jamie is extremely dependent of Robert, who has always taken care of him, and does not trust anyone else. He's shy and withdrawn, and if someone he doesn't know tries to talk to him, he will just look down at his feet or hide behind Robert. He relies on Robert to do both the talking and fighting for both of them. He can't stand seeing Robert being too close to anyone besides himself and is constantly worried that Robert will leave him, which resulted in his suicide attempt.

He loves animals and will go to any extent to help them. He is very kind, too kind actually, and it tends to get him in trouble. Even though he is suspicious of almost everyone, he tries to help people who asks for it.

Weaknesses and Strengths: Can't fight, and has lousy social skills. Really good at healing, but chooses not to exorcise or seal demons since he supports Lucifer. Very observant, even though he seems distracted.

History: Robert did his best to protect Jamie from their abusive father. He took the beatings for them both, until he day he turned 16. While Robert was out partying their father got drunk, and since Robert wasn't here to protect Jamie their father abused him for hours. He broke Jamie's arm, and raped him (something that he still hasn't told Robert about). When their father had finally calmed down he locked himself in his room and called Robert who rushed over. He cuffed his ears and tried to shut out the shouts and rhythmic thumps from Robert's fists, but couldn't. His mother was calling the police, so Robert grabbed Jamie and they both fled.

The following years Robert did whatever he could to earn enough money for them both. Robert never told Jamie what he was actually doing, but Jamie had his suspicions. He did his best to support his elder brother by being as kind as he could, but seeing his brother come home with bruises and wounds, his smiles becoming more scarce for every day, took it's toll on Jamie. He had always adored his big brother, and he wished more than anything that that he could protect him.

Jamie still can't say exactly when he fell in love with Robert, because it happened gradually and he tried to deny it because he knew it was wrong, but after he turned 15 it was becoming unbearable. When Robert finally asked him what was wrong, Jamie kissed him. After that Robert refused to so much as look at him, and Jamie was devastated, believing that he had managed to push away the only one he cared about. Luckily Robert kissed him back a couple of months later, and they've been inseparable ever since.

Though there was one incident. Robert had one of his few friends over, when she suddenly tries to kiss him. Of course he pushes her away, but Jamie sees it and can't stop thinking about it. He loves Robert more than anything but he also knows that their relationship is as forbidden as it can possibly be, and he manages to convince himself that Robert is going to leave him. Rather than waiting for Robert to break his heart, he tried to kill himself. Robert found him and drove him to the hospital. He survived, but after that Robert is even more protective, and never lets Jamie out of sight (unless he has too).

Other: Obviously not up for love. You might want to think twice before saying or doing anything mean to Jamie, 'cause Robert will come after you and won't be satisfied until you're dead. And yes, Jamie gladly heals anyone who asks.

---

Name: Robert Walker
Descendant of: Lilith - succubus and first wife of Adam
Class: Implanter
Age: 25
Sin: Incest, Murder, Vanity, Theft, Prostitution.. The list is long. (Lust, Pride, Greed, Envy, Wrath.)

Appearance: 6'2, athletic build. Black hair, brown eyes, slightly tanned. Prefers black clothes and converse with a leather jacket. Always carries himself with pride, chin up and back straight.

Personality: He's extremely protective and possessive of Jamie, and if he sees anyone so much as touch his little brother he'll not stop until that person is either dead or on his knees begging for forgiveness. Did I say that he's a bit aggressive? Though it's only when it comes to Jamie. If Jamie is safe and happy, then Robert is calm and patient.

Just like Jamie he has serious trust issues, but is not at all shy or awkward. Robert is outgoing, determined and very suborn. If he wants something he usually gets it.

He's smart, cold and calculating as long as Jamie is okay. He'd much rather stay back and watch than actually get involved in the fighting or whatever it might be.

Weaknesses and Strengths: Carries a semi-automatic gun and is freakishly accurate with it. He's though. You can yell at him and hit him as much as you want, he doesn't care, but do anything to Jamie and he freaks. Jamie is probably the greatest weakness that he has.

Knows how to fight, and is quite strong. Hasn't quite gotten the hang of the whole magic thingy yet.

Due to his connections to the underworld he knows a lot of things, and he trades information for whatever he needs. He's always well informed. He's smart. Not like a academician, but quick-witted and street smart.

History: Robert and Jamie are half brothers. Robert's mother died shortly after giving birth to him, and their father remarried a year later. Their father was a mean drunk, and often became violent towards Robert, who he blamed for his late wife's death. The new wife did nothing to stop the abuse, in fact she seemed to hate Robert just as much as their father did.

Robert was eight when Jamie was born, and he knew from the first time that he held Jamie that he had to protect him from their father, no matter what. Robert took the beatings for them both, until he day he turned 16. He was out partying with his friends when he suddenly got a call from Jamie, crying and begging him to come home. When he finally got there he found Jamie with bruises all over and a broken arm. Robert beat their father to death and then took Jamie and fled.

The following years Robert did whatever he could to earn enough money for them both, which included both prostitution and drug dealing. He lived a tough life, and it left its mark on them both. The only thing that stopped Robert from losing it was Jamie's smile, which he, until this day, only shows for Robert.

It wasn't until Jamie turned fifteen (Robert was 22) that their relationship started changing. Jamie suddenly started acting all grumpy around Robert, and refused to smile, and after a few weeks Robert couldn't take it anymore, so he asked what the hell was going on. Instead of answering Jamie kissed him. Robert was terrified of how right it felt and after that he struggled with himself for months after that, and refused to so much as look at Jamie. Eventually he was forced to admit that he was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with his own brother.

After Jamie tried to kill himself Robert became even more protective than he already was.

Other: Obviously not up for love, but feel free to flirt (but don't let Jamie catch you).

I apologize this is so brief. Inspiration block.


Name: Mark Bryce, also known as Solomon.

Descendant of: Azazel, angel of Death

Class: Vanquisher

Age: early thirties

Sin: Pride, Wrath, Lust and Sloth according to the Seven Deadly Sins, but also heresy and blasphemy of the highest degree (killing angels degree, meaning), alcohol and drug abuse, a charge of rape and several of petty theft and arson (those policemen were begging for it anyways… heh)

Appearance: He’s sickly, rather tall at 1’86, but very pale. His eyes are mud brown, still showing traces of his heavy drug abuse in the past (he’s still partial to some weed with his vodka from time to time), and his hair, often greasy and unkempt or spiked in various odd crests, is raven colored. He wears leather jackets, shirts and black skinny jeans, usually with boots. Sometimes his nails are painted black. He also sports several tattoos:
http://stores.ravensattic.com/images/Ra ... tar-in.jpg that tattooed on his left bicep; http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7wob ... o1_500.jpg that tattooed on his right bicep; http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9 ... BtjOUs-zPC that on a pendant around his neck; ‘HOMO,’ each letter on one finger, on his left hand; and a stylized anarchy symbol over his left eye http://www.anarchism.net/images/download_ca_black.jpg

Personality: Most of the time, he’s calm. Unpleasantly so. Like the still ocean before the lightning storm hits and ravages everything in the vicinity. He’s prone to rapid mood swings however, and is easily provoked and can snap violently, especially so when drunk, which makes him rather chatty and oddly charismatic, rather than foggy and incoherent. He tends to stay away from people, being rather sociopathic and introverted. In other words, he’s quite insane. He doesn’t like loud people either, doesn’t like being nagged, and doesn’t like ‘stupid people.’ You’d be surprised how many people fit into this category. And he despises, hates angels and demons and all related.

Weaknesses and Strengths: His unpredictability can lead to surprising geniality, and his evocation/banishment/sealing techniques are extremely powerful and finely-honed, and he’s also not that bad at using runes.
History: Mark was an orphan as a child. He led an unhappy early life, having no one but ancient books and Latin texts to keep him company, and an unhappy later life. He failed through university, though going quite well in Latin. Had high hopes of becoming a historian or something, as long as it hand to do with Latin, but had the place stolen under him. He settled for a crappy job, quit in disgust, underwent a depressive phase, worked as a whore for a while (you never know). One night he found a cell of the Order of the Nine Angles through a pusher friend of his.

With the ONA Mark undertook dangerous tests for ‘self-improvement,’ staying out in the wild for several days, and taking drugs to ‘reach a higher plane of consciousness.’ He had simply stopped caring by then. On the eve of his twentieth birthday he was contemplating suicide, when, in a fit (he then blamed withdrawal), his ancestor, the angel Azazel, appeared to him, and told him of the upcoming Judgment day, and what his role would be as Vanquisher Exorcist. Mark accepted, suddenly, madly, fearing for his life.

As the date approached, he began to be tormented by nightmares, horrible visions, of rain of golden blood and seas of fire and a sunless sky. Having no drugs to turn to this time, he wallowed in terror. Then he decided to do something about that. Having passed the gate of madness long before and now stopped at that curious place resembling cold, abject sanity, Mark placed all the troubles of his life and by proxy all the evil of the world on the fucking angels and the goddamned demons. He made a resolution that day, in his miserable room that passed for a home: he would not rest until all spirits died. All of them. Then the Earth would be left in peace, at last.

To this day he’s been keeping to his resolution.

Okay, Aria, that's cool. Just drop me a message if you have any questions. And, everyone, if you have not already, go and check out the guide in the DT. It's just basically a set of do's and don'ts (don'ts? don't's? do not's? noagkdgndsiuanfk?!).


Name: Mias Haybrine

Descendant of: Yerachimel

Class: Extractor

Age: 26

Sin: Greed, Alcohol abuse, Lust

Appearance:
Spoiler
Image


Mias is 5"9 with thick arms and legs. His nose is snubbed with a slight upturn and his eyes and hair as the same color mahogany brown. Mias walks tall, with his chin held high and his eyes straight forward. Everything about him screams authority and presence. He's never out of a suit or without a gun.

Personality: Mias is a business man and therefore holds himself as one. He knows the time for work and play too well. When there's something that needs to get done Mias will not crack a single smile until it's taken care of. But as soon as the problem is dealt with he likes to celebrate and have fun until something else to do arises. Actually, he has a bit too much fun, especially with alcohol.

Mias likes order, he figures there's a place for everything and everything must be in its place. He's compulsively clean. The only time he lapses from his compulsive ways is when he is drunk, and then he spends the majority of the next day putting everything back in its place.

Weaknesses and Strengths:
Weaknesses: Alcohol, pretty people, money. If he goes without alcohol for more than a day he goes into withdrawal and is useless.

Strengths: He's really smart and is a fast thinker. He can worm his way out of most any situation.

History: Mias' father was the owner and CEO of one of the world's top computer manufacturing business. Mias was brought up with the value and importance of money nearly beaten into him. His father was money and power hungry and his mother was nothing more than a person that went shopping, hugged him occasionally, and had sex with his dad. Mias learned quickly that he had to get attention through other means. More or less, he became a slut in school, he had affairs with students and teachers alike, and nearly begged for his dad's attention at home. His father was only interested in matters that involved his work, so Mias got started on joining the family business.

By the time Mias was 22 he was already second in charge of his father's business and a heavy drinker. His life put a lot of stress on him and alcohol was a quick and easy way to ease some of his problems. He was also a regular customer of Kanga - he frequented the whore house enough that he had a top five.

Mias had no problems with lying or cheating to get what he wanted, and those were the means he often used. He was never satisfied with what he had, has always wanted more, and will always want more.

Other: Up for lust love, no preferences.
A pale imitator of a girl in the sky.

So, I finally post my profile.

Name: mostly goes by Angel, probably out of irony, and he doesn't tell the true name

Descendant of: Penemuel (fallen angel who corrupts mankind through writing) and the demon Nybbas (manager of visions and dreams)

Class: Extractor/Implanter (will explain)

Age: 23

Sin: Pride and Lust (for all kinds of things), but also all kinds of deceptions, lies, experimenting with the occult, drugs, alcohol, women.. (Don't know of all the actions that are considered sins, lol)

Appearance: He is quite tall, slender and pale enough to look a bit sick. His hair is black, always messy, over his ears and wavy here and there, falling over his forehead and shading his green eyes. He sometimes has the sort of stare that makes any man obey his will, but at others he actually seems like a nice person. Definitely nicer than he is.
He dresses in suits, often with long coat instead of actual suit jacket, wears a hat when he goes out and almost always has gloves (to hide the runes carved in his skin, if nothing else). He wears rings, silver, and has tattoos on his chest, neck, back and ribs (will talk about the details in the chapters). He rarely smiles because he finds something funny (it's more of a weapon of his), but he does often smile little evil smiles that more or less tell that he's about to do something not everyone would consider good.
You can imagine him a bit like this ~ http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTtqVnmJXHyBjOZZFZ-FPbdKddn3hOciUqsR3L83ZtrFt5X67D7jw But with sharper face features and green eyes.

Personality: Angel is many things. He can be funny, he can be depressed, he can be intimidating.. But mostly he's cold, cynical and ignores things he doesn't care about. He's also pretty much a control freak, and a dominant personality in every relationship he has (not only referring to sexual ones). He can be very caring, though, and sometimes he gets distant and lost, and at those moments he almost seems scared of the world around him - never among people, though. He enjoys making deals, and will almost never do something for someone else if he doesn't benefit from it.

Weaknesses and Strengths: He can see and talk to demons, and sometimes (not often) even convince them to do as he says without using magic. He has rune carved in his right hand, one that allows him to see the dark parts of the souls and thoughts (including dreams, fears, wishes and so on) and make them appear real for the person. His other hand is untouched, and he's leaving it to add another rune, eventually. Being both a demon and an angel child, he's found his way to manipulate the runes just enough so he becomes the master of a demon he extracts, that allowing him to move it to another body as he wishes.
But, as his parents are fighting, he doesn't always have the same powers. They are unstable and his personality shifts from being more of an Extractor to being more of an Implanter, and therefore he can never be sure how will he wake up when he falls asleep, nor will he want to save someone or smile as their life gets destroyed slowly. Sometimes, they almost literally appear as a devil and an angel on his shoulders (as in movies, you know), and he can call them to talk to them.
He carries a gun, but doesn't often use it. He is a good shooter, but doesn't like killing if he can Implant, deceive or, well, kill in some other way, not so loud.

History: Being a child of an angel and a demon, he never really had a family. He couldn't live the same way his father and mother did, so he was sent off to one family after another, always leaving when something would happen (like, a mysterious illness or death of a pet or family member). It went like that till his age of fifteen, when he got to live and work in a theatre. He wrote stories, poems and plays, and was known for his dark topics and use of illusions to manipulate the observers' minds from his young age. As he grew older, he also got known as a womanizer and lover and magician in certain fields, as well as for his taste in wines and coffee with rum.
When he was seventeen, he met Violeta, who at the time was a performer at the same theatre, and the two (despite the differences) slowly fell in love. Partly, they owed it to the fact that she was of angelic descent as well, and at the time still one of those meant to be saved when the Day comes.
His angelic parent appeared at his age 19, telling him he's now to become an Extractor, which he accepted just so he'd finally be involved in something more than regular human life. He trained a bit and learned what he could, and eventually got to find his first demon. Because of his demon side, he could easily see and even talk to the creature, and it told him of wonders Angel couldn't just ignore (they also agreed on some points about what should happen in the future of mankind and such), so he stalled for long enough to lose control over the demon.
Violeta was with him at the time, and she was seconds away from having her soul completely took over by the demon, when Lucifer appeared to him, intrigued by Angel's blood mix. So as any desperate young man, Angel made a deal to save his beloved girl - he agreed to take the other side and become an Implanter. Violeta was then set free, but with a price of staying on Earth and deal with demons (as her soul was already stained then). Then, his parents started fighting over him (that fight of their still lasts). His angelic parent, out of revenge, made Violeta a Vanquisher, but that didn't do the trick of setting them apart.

Other: Violeta is the one who takes care of him, even to the point of imprisoning him using her own runes, but she loves him and owes him too much to hurt him. She's the only person Angel would do pretty much everything for, though when his demon side takes over he doesn't care for her feelings enough to stay away from drinks, women, other demons and theaters. On his good days, he plays piano and writes all kinds of things. He's already in love, so not up for it (except when he wakes up evil, but those relationships don't last long)


*****
Violeta is not my POV character, but I figured, as she'll be very important for his development and story, that I should make her a short profile too (and so you can write about her if you meet her somewhere, as she's not with Angel all the time), so here it goes:

Name: Violeta Evans

Descendant of: Dumah (angel of silence)

Class: Vanquisher

Age: 21

Sin: none really, except for staying with Angel for all that time and letting him live and do his things

Appearance: I don't usually put pictures, but I don't feel like writing. She looks like this ~ http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ30j8E1gczwPxSU_k4UUQLJjaJ2qBxeFyDKB8VqaPmw1-CqcZ1 only has more innocent look and her nose is somewhat smaller.

Personality: Violeta is patient, mostly optimistic and understanding, and also open-minded, likes to be free and to appear strong. She holds all her bad feelings inside and sometimes just can't take it any longer so she cries and pretty much hates everyone. If that happens while Angel is in his evil mood, she ends up even more hurt, psychically at least. If it happens while he's less evil, she knows she can count on him to comfort her.

Weaknesses and Strengths: She's a hard learner, so she knows a great deal about runes she can use, and she's also very calm and concentrated so she does the job right. But she's not physically very strong, and when it comes to Angel she's not very strong at all, not wanting to hurt him even when he threatens her.

History: She grew up happily, with her mother, and was very sad when she died (Violeta was 15). She then joined the theatre, thanks to her dancing skills, and met Angel there. The rest is already in his history ^^

Other: Not up for love, though she's not often happy with Angel, him being who he is. They love and hate each other, but nevertheless she'd never betray him.
