The heavens are quiet.
Kadingir has closed, the earth is at peace, and the gods are sleeping.
But soon, heaven, earth, and the netherworld will collide and wars between worlds will be the consequence.
No-one knows what happens when dalkhu flood the heavens, but it's not going to be pretty.
A rebellion in the netherworld is brewing, and it's spreading to the heavens. So-called 'Liberator' gods are releasing dalkhu from their prisons in the netherworld. Powerful and corrupted dalkhu-gods and dalkhu-genii are roaming all three worlds again, dragging down innocent humans and genii with them. It's up to the gods to rebalance the three worlds again - but a few others are tangled in the web.
It is modern day, New York, midnight. Our story begins here.
Welcome to Genii! I have a few rules before we start, so let's just run through them.
1. All of the normal SB rules apply!
2. Your character sheet must have at least 7 sentences for personality and at least 7 for appearance (if you have a photo, this is optional and the minimum sentence rule doesn't count.).
3. You may have as many characters as you think you can manage. However, I'm going to advise you stick to 2.
4. If you wish to leave the SB, please PM me, and roleplay out your departure unless you need to be leaving ASAP.
5. Romance (ew xD) is allowed, but nothing graphic.
6. Please try and keep fighting realistic. Also, here's a fancy page about injuries.
7. Just because you can play as a god, doesn't mean you can god mod.
I strongly encourage you to read the posts in the DT. They contain some very useful information. If you have any questions, post in the DT.
Races
Deities - technically the highest up in the imaginary ranks. Deities, or gods, are human-like inhabitants of an, the heavens. They are bound to a set of rules set out by Enlil known as me. The me ensure that all gods keep the balance of the universe (an-ki). Deities are not immortal - they are simply very long-lived. Deities are also able to be killed by anyone or any disease that can affect gods, mostly caused by sinning and dalkhu creation. Killing a god is difficult, however, as they will very likely be guarded by genii and have extremely powerful magic. When deities die, they are usually reincarnated quickly, unless their soul is suspended by powerful dalkhu magic.
Humans - the inhabitants of ki, earth. Humans are often caught between god fights, even when they are unaware of it. An average human cannot see a god, a dalkhu or a genii, but a human who has exceptional psychic abilities or who has had accidental contact with a non-human being is able to see them. Humans can become genii if they were doing something important when they died, e.g. driving to pick someone up, paying bills.
Genii - ghosts, spirits, those who have moved on. Genii are essentially ghosts. They cannot communicate through normal means having lost their physical bodies and thus lost their voice, but they can attempt to communicate using many psychic abilities. They are able to become servants of gods or dalkhu, often employed as spies or weapon-forgers. They are usually treated well by both races, but are feared and mistaken for demons and malicious spirits by humans.
Dalkhu - true demons. Dalkhu live in the nether world and are usually gods or genii who have been cast out of an for breaking the me. Dalkhu are not all evil - this is a common misconception. They are often portrayed as evil because of their mistakes and/or because of their frantic attempts to regain access to an. The nether world is a place where god magic is locked away and blocked from leaving the dimension, rendering dalkhu who were previously gods powerless. Only another god or a powerful genii owned by a god can release them.
Any race can be any gender. Please include what your god/dalkhu-god is a god of in "Race" and your genii's / dalkhu-genii's death in "History".
