I've felt recently like every roleplay I touch has suddenly... slowed down. Or died. So I'm making this one with the hope that it will be successful. D; Oh yeah, and the idea for this roleplay slipped into my head not five minutes ago. So please no stealing, just in case I decide later on I actually want to do something with the plot. 

The plot [READ IT]: Some people on this earth believe in such things as demons and angels. Others don't. Hate to break to the people who don't believe in such things, but devils and angels are, in fact, real. On this earth, demons go out, making pacts with humans. Trading things with them. The human gives up their soul and they get immortality. The human gives up their sight and they can see the future. In other words, a demon is willing to give the human something they desire-- for a price. Some make the pact, the trade. Others decide not to. The demons do this so they can fight against the angels.

Angels also go out, blessing certain humans with one certain gift. The price the human pays? Fighting with demons and those who made pacts with them. Of course, the angel asks before blessing the human with the gift and everything...

So yeah. Both groups, the angels and the demons hate each other. They have good reason, too. They're basically complete opposites. Well, what if later on it turns out that for some reason something's attacking both groups? What then? What if this "thing" is so powerful the demons and angels might need to unite in order to vanquish the foe? Of course, this aspect will come in a little later in the roleplay. All I can tell you right now is that this thing is neither angel nor demon. ;3 And it will start gathering people against both groups as well... A war is about to unfold.

Rules: Love them or hate them, every roleplay needs rules. Keep everything PG-13. Violence and romance allowed, of course. Don't let romance start getting in the way of everything-- this, after all, is not a romance rp. Mild cursing allowed. Words that Res doesn't allow are not allowed in this roleplay. No PP, GM, Mary Sues, Gary Stews, etc. Oh yeah. Be literate. I understand that sometimes a small post is what is needed, and I also understand if you have writer's block. Still, 4 lines minimum for a post, 'kay? Capitalization and punctuation are also a must. I can understand typos though. And I understand bad spelling-- I am cursed with this as well. x3 No "I couldn't find the thread" excuses. To let me know you read everything, post oOBuBlesOo in your favorite colour. 

Got an idea for the plot? Rmail me! I love plot twists or ideas for the plot. If you have a sort of minor plot twist, go ahead and keep it a secret. But if you happen to have a big one, please rmail me about it. 

Characters, characters... You may be a demon, an angel, a human who made a pact with a devil, or a human that was blessed by an angel. Humans who are blessed by an angel have a sort of tattoo of a halo on the palm of their right hand. Humans who made a pact with a demon are given a black ribbon which they wear on some part of their body or clothing, and they are usually... missing something, due to the fact they have to give up something in order to gain a gift from a demon. Humans who are blessed by angels can't tell whether a human has made a pact with a demon, but they can see others like themselves and tell whether someone is an angel. Humans who made a pact with a demon can see humans who have been blessed by angels, but they can't see demons or others like themselves.

Angels can make themselves appear like a human and have one to two gifts [powers]. And they can bless humans. In their actual angel form, they have two large wings, as well as a faint glowing halo over their heads. When they bless a human, they give the human their halo and press it into the humans right hand, which is how the human gets a halo looking tattoo on the palm of their right hand.

Demons can make themselves appear like a human, but they only have one power. Yeah, and they can form pacts with humans. In their demon form they have skin as pale as death, and tinted blue. Their lips are colourless. They really look like a walking corpse. Their eyes are usually yellow, crimson, or black in colour. They, of course, have the tail, and some have horns while others don't. Around their necks is tied a black ribbon. When they make a pact with a human, they give the ribbon to the human. 

You may have 3 characters max, and later on I will probably allow more. Try and keep genders even, and the amount of blessed humans vs. humans who have made pacts with demons... Same with angels and demons.

OOC: I'm sorry, Earthrabbit, you are still able to fill out the rest, even if you can't actually answer them right now. Also, I can see from your bio that you just gave that you don't seem very literate. You didn't post oOBuBlesOo in your favourite colour, so I don't know that you read everything. I'm sorry, but I can't accept your bio. D; So... I suggest you find another roleplay. I mean this in all respect..

Ssather-- yes, you may :)

Name: Faythe Sanders

Species: Human for the moment

Age: 18

Deion: She is about 5'6 and very hostile about it, with a lean body type. Even though she's small, she is little to no fat with thick, hidden muscles under tanned skin. She has many scars as well, mostly around her back and legs, seeing as she was never hit around the face much. Her eyes are a deep green with slight golden flecks near the center. Her face is defined by a small chin and high cheek bones with a small mouth that hardly ever smiles. All-in-all it's very harsh and cold. Her hair is about shoulder length in the front and slightly shorter in the back with a spiky look. Its a deep chestnut brown with darker streaks running thorough it.

Gifts/powers: None at the moment. But when she becomes blessed/creates a pact she will have the ability of healing. She does have a limit to this, seeing as she cannot bring someone back to life, or help someone on the brink of death unless it is someone close to her. This is also very exhausting for her to preform.

The Price: If she does create a pact with a demon she will lose her soul. Let me explain this. When she dies her soul will forever be bound to the demon to do as he pleases with. Torture her, send her to purgatory, etc. She must live with the knowledge all of her days that she will never have a peaceful after life.

History: This is very complicated, seeing as her life taken many turns and twists, only one time in her life was she a happy care-free child. This was when her mother was there, and tucked her in at night. The she disappeared, her father never telling her where she went. Her father, how she hated the man! After her mother disappeared, he began to drink and got violent. Unbelievably cruel to the six year old, giving spanks and blows meant for a adult. She learned to fear her fathers fists, and avoid his anger. Nothing else needs to be said of what he did, her childhood was quickly lost. When she was sixteen, she ran away, ending up in this small town a beaten, mental, starving scrap of flesh with nothing in the world. No one would take in this 'city slicker' and she gave up hope. The under ground groups saw her potential and took her in, teaching her to fight, to steal, and to block your emotions. She has quickly surp*censored*ed most of her gang members and is now looking for something more, something to make her more powerful, to give her life meaning. 

Personality: Faythe is a very aggressive, cold person. She throws her emotions in a box and stuffs them in the back of her mind, hating it when anything leaks out. She looks at emotion like a weakness. She does not follow the law, and is not afraid to break it. The reason lies in her past. She is very loyal though, unless you break her trust she will follow her friends, her family to the end of the earth and will fight to the death to defend them. Something she hides thought is that inside she is still the scared little girl the police found inside that house. No one has ever said it will be okay, it's okay to cry, so she never does. In truth, she wishes she could tell someone about it all and let it out,. But she believes the world is a awful place, no one trustful enough not to hurt her again.

Theme song: N/A

Anything I forgot/other: Nope

--

Name: Dimitri Ramos

Species: Human with a demon pact

Age: 20

Deion: Dimitri is not a person you would want to meet in a dark alleyway. He looks sorta like a guy who would slit your throat without a backwards glance. He is tall, standing about 6'4 in height. He has a strong distant face ith dark brown eyes that seem to glow when he's angry. His hair is dark brown and reaches his neck. and is slightly wavy. He normally wears comfortable dark jeans and a black shirt. A long black jacket normally covers him. A scar goes over his left eye and he has a tattoo spiraling down his shoulder that looks like a snarling wolf. The black ribbon he has received is wrapped around his right wrist like a black bandage.

Gifts/powers: He has the ability to call upon ghosts to do his bidding or just to seek information from them. This power has come with a bit of a price seeing as when he see's the dead part of his sanity slips, making him un-rationally violent to himself and others. ((Is this okay?))

The Price: The demon that he created this pact with took his of his good memories, so everything he remembers of his past are bad and painful. This makes him  have a very bleak out look on life. 

History: His father works most of the time, always has as long as he remembers and his mother was sick. His younger sister by two years was very attached to her mother and had mental problems. Finally they got the news their mother had cancer and was dying. His father never came back to check on her, even on her death bed. Three weeks after Sonja, their mother died Kara, his sister, killed herself. He left the house and the painful memories behind. But he made a mistake when he created the demon pact, now he remembers most vividly those deaths most of the time. 

Personality: Dimitri is a very gruff person, blunt and straight to the point. He prefers to be left alone to his own thoughts and doing rather then be bothered by anyone else's problems. He is a bit of a loner, not one to be able to make and keep friends easily because of his snappish attitude towards other human beings. And those he considers friends are not always the best of company. He does try to keep his temper in check, though not always does it work. Because in truth who wants to have a ticked off person, weather its him of the person he's punched. Nor is Dimitri always on the right side of the law, he's not afraid to steal or rob, though he would not dream of actually killing anyone unless he was forced to.

 Name: Jace Keir

Species: Angel

Age: 20

Deion: He has sun bleached blonde hair that at times looks white in the sun. His hair reaches just past his ears and is longer in the front then in the back, with side sweeping bangs that cover his right eye most of the time, He is not a real muscular guy when you first look at him, but he has hidden strength after so many years of running and fighting for survival. He is somewhat lanky in appearance really. He has a very kind face, with high defined cheek bones and he is almost always grinning in a cunning manner. Like he knows something you don't. Jace's eyes are a cobalt blue that seems to get darker towards the center of his eyes.  He has a sapphire drop hanging from one ear. His wings are white with a slight tingle of gold towards the end feathers.

Gifts/powers: He can use Psychometry. Psychometry is the ability to “read” information from objects. For example, a psychometrist may hold a watch or wallet belonging to a person they do not know, and by concentrating on the ob
ject, garner information about the person’s past, present, or future

History: Nothing really of importance. He is an angel who is bent on destroying the demons. One thing that should be noted is that he once had a brother who was killed in the line of duty to a large horde of demons. He wants vengeance.

Personality: : Jace is a very easy going person, laid back and not really caring about his future. He is not one to care either of he hurts other feelings by saying things he believes are true, or if he knows something someone else needs to know, all-in-all he's a very blunt guy. Not one to care about how anyone he does not know, nor does he want to knows, feeling he'll tell someone off just for the heck of it to see what kind of reaction he can gain from them. Jace is quite selfish when he wants to be, which tends to be most of the time, seeing as he does not have any one to look after or care about how they feel or what they want. Friends are hard for him to gain, and harder for him to keep, because he has little loyalty to anyone besides himself. This is mostly because of his past and the fact no one gave a damn about him, so why should he now. But if someone is lucky enough for him to consider a friend he can be over protective and very giving, not afraid to steal to get what they want. Or he can be a jerk and push them away. Jace is also not always on the right side of the law, and his learned over to years how to take care of himself and provide what he needs, not really caring if he gets himself into trouble or not.

Name: Rosaleen [ROZ-a-leen] Marie Veskamp

Species: Human who makes a pact with a demon

Age: 15

Deion: Rosaleen has hair that seems blacker than night itself when one looks at it. It greatly contrasts her very fair skin. Her eyes pop out and are the first thing a person will notice when one spots her; they are a light, light grey and seem extremely unnerving, especially since they seem so... misty. She stands at about 5"2. She has an extremely curvy body figure. She wears denim shorts that are extremely short. Pulled over top of that is a form fitting black tank top. You probably guessed she likes black by now, so I won't surprise you by saying that she paints her nails black as well. She wears sterling silver dangly earrings that are in the shape of daggers. 

Gifts/powers: Rosaleen has powers over illusions and tampering with somebody's head. She can make them see whatever she wants them to see, and to feel and hear whatever she wants them too. Her second power is a mystery, as of yet. She figures out her first one almost instantly though. 

The Price: She makes people see certain things-- she gives up her sight.

History: Rosaleen has not yet made a pact with a demon yet. Yet being the keyword. 

Personality: Roleplaying it out. 

Theme song: Will come up with one later. Maybe.

Anything I forgot/other: Zip. 

-x-x-x- 

 

Name: Maria Veskamp

Species: Human who is blessed by an angel. 

Age: 17

Deion: Maria has red hair. Not like that orange, sort of carrot-red hair. Actually flame red hair that is straight, and long. When let down, it falls to her mid back. Usually, though, Maria keeps it in an artsy sort of messy bun. It suits her. Her skin is pretty dang fair, though she may not be the fairest person in the crowd. Her eyes are a shocking deep blue. She has a fairly curvy figure. She wears flare jeans and a black shirt with a picture of a white raven on it. On her wrist of her right hand she wears a couple of *censored*orted bracelets. She wears silver hoop earrings. She is short for her age and stands at 5"3. 

Gifts/powers: She can touch a random ob
ject and make it come to life, for a period of time, at least. Her second power is that she can also turn one ob
ject into another. For example, she can touch a metal pole and turn it into a spear. Or a butter knife into a steak knife. The more she has to change something, the more energy she uses up. 

The Price: No price whatsoever. 

History: She has already been blessed by an angel, though her sister [Rosaleen -gaspeth-] doesn't know this... yet. She's been blessed for a month, just about. So not very long. 

Personality: Roleplaying it out.

Theme song: Will find something. Maybe.

Anything I forgot/other: Yeah. She's Rosaleen's sister.

OOC: Accepted, Stray. And Dimitri can have two powers-- it's just the demons that only have one. Just in case you didn't know or were confused. If not, forget what I just said. xD I'm going to add another character. It's either going to be demon or angel, but I'm going to wait to see a couple of other people's bios before I decide completely.

Name:Aurora Hawk

Species: Human that made a pact with a demon.

Age:19

Deion:Aurora has long, curly, black hair that reaches down to her back. Her hair is always down because if she has it up she always seems to get a headache. She has pale skin and hard ice blue eyes that show no emotions. She is average height but very, very thin. On top of her head a large red and black snake rides. Aurora has dark red lips that never seem to smile or frown but just stay in a straight line. She usually wears black jeans with a dark blue, purple, or green shirt and never has shoes on. She doesn't wear any makeup and her eyelashes are naturally long. 

Gifts/powers:She can read and control others emotions.

The Price: She can't feel love, happiness, or any emotions.

History: Aurora lived on an ranch with her family for the first part of her life. She was a very happy child until she was betrayed by her best and friends who killed her parents. She ran away as her house burned down but her friend followed her. She almost stepped on her snake but the screamed and jumped over it. Her friend did step on it and was bitten. Her friend died because the snake was poisonous but Aurora found a new friend. Aurora traveled for a long time learning new things and making new friends, but somehow all of her friend betrayed and hurt her in some way. She stumbled upon a merchant who said that he could grant her a wish. She wished that she could see emotions because she thought that if she had she could have seen her friends anger towards her family and maybe had saved them. Her wish did come true but she didn't expect for it to happen the way it had.

Name: Chase [no last name ;3]

Species: Angel

Age: Kinda... immortal. Since beginning of time, basically.

Deion: Chase has emerald green eyes and fair skin. His hair is unruly and dark brown. He stands at about 6"1. His two wings are a light ice blue colour, and they look fragile, almost like you could break them and cause them to shatter into thousands of pieces. Of course, he doesn't go strutting about with his wings out all the time. His halo was the same colour as his wings, but he gave it away when he blessed a certain human [aka: Maria]. He wears regular jeans and a very light blue t-shirt. Yes, blue happens to be this angel's favourite colour. He hates not wearing blue. 

Gifts/powers: Chase can turn objects into ice-- this power can extend to human bodies, as well as demons. However, if he uses too much of this power or loses control, the consequences are deadly. [Yes, I stole this power from somebody else in some other rp somewhere. ^_^] He can even turn his own arm into ice. It makes a very amazing weapon, when used well. He also has another power, which is sort of useful. He gets certain feelings [like a sixth sense] of when something bad is about to happen, or when somebody sneaking around behind him, about to do something. This feeling doesn't really tell him what is about to happen, or anything. Surprisingly, it's not the most useful thing. 

The Price: No price-- free. :)

History: Been an angel ever since he was created-- which was a long, long, long time ago. He blessed a human which he had watched for a while named Maria. He often visits her and sticks around her. 

Personality: [Optional] <----

Theme song: .....

Anything I forgot/other: Zilch.

-x-x-x-

Name: Damon [no last name]. The name rings evil, right? x3

Species: Demon. 

Age: Erm.. Again, he's immortal and can't die of old age (though he can get killed). 

Deion: Damon has white hair. Seriously white. It's about as white as his pale skin, as well. His eyes are a sharp yellow. He has a black tail, or course, and he does have small horns. He usually keeps these things hidden. He loves hanging around humans, after all. He wears a black t-shirt, loose fitting jeans with holes in em'... Over top of that he wears a red hoodie. In his left ear is one gold earring. A small hoop earring. ^_^ 

Gifts/powers: Damon can stand on someone's shadow and then control them. [I did not just steal this from Naruto, nope. O.o Not at all.] 

The Price: He's a demon. He didn't really have to pay any price. ;3

History: Currently he's watching this human named Rosaleen. He notices that her sister is blessed. And Damon loves a good fight in a family. They're the best. >)

Personality: -pokes optional-

Anything I forgot/other: Nopety.
