Heaven/Hell RPG???

[Renos]

I hope it's okay that i'm trying to start an RPG but i had an idea and thought it would be okay.

Anyway, it's a Heaven/Hell RPG, where you have the choice of either playing as an Archangel or a High Ranking demon or a Fallen, traitorous type. The three Classes will all start in the same place and end up having to work together. umm, i'll try and come up with a better description while i'm at the Hairdressers. and re-post it

[Kage Chaos]

It's perfectly fine to start a new RPG, just as long as we don't have like a new one every week or something. That would be a bit too much to keep up with.

Anyway, I'm not sure where you're going with the idea, but it sounds interesting enough.

More info would definitely be nice ;D

[blossom]

I like! I like!

[Cefor]

I like, though the idea of an Archangel working with Demons and Fallen is outrageously silly..... it would be more 'realistic' if the Light side had Archangels and Seraphim (Angels but with eight wings, they are meant to have four heads too but we can ignore that) and then on the Dark side (hehe) we could have the Demons and Fallen.

It's up to you Renos, but I think that working against each other is a better idea, plus it makes for more interesting conflicts.

P.S: An Archangel and Demon/Fallen wouldn't have a common goal, so they wouldn't need to work together.

[Kage Chaos]

I think maybe incorporating half-breeds would be interesting as well (not necessarily half-demon, half-angel, but like half-human, half-angel, or half-human, half-demon, and so on)

In D&D they're referred to as half-celestials (human/angel) and half-fiends (human/demon).

Anyway, this is Renos' idea, so we should wait to see what she has to say.

[Cefor]

Ah, half-breeds would be cool

Though I wouldn't play as one

I'd be either Archangel or a Fallen.

What would others be?

[Renos]

yeah, i'm just working on it, i did have another idea, but it's cool, i'll figgure something out

[Renos]

Okay this is what i've been able to come up with.

In any of my stories when refering to Heven/hell, i use these names so i don't see why this should be any different. so from here on out:
Heven = Zenith (Zenith meaning Absoulte top for those who don't know)
Hell = Nadir (Meaning absoulte bottom)

The race seletion i've decided to make availible is:
- The archangles
- the Seraphim
- the Demons
- the Fallen
- The half-breeds
- the Hunters.

Okay just to clear up some of them, half-breed as Kage said eariler are half human- half angel of half human- half demon. The hunters are basically human demon hunters.

the General Plot
Okay basically the demons are rebelling against the angels who have been repressing there time in the human realm. the angels have Teamed up with the hunters to make life harder.

that's it for now, i'll figgure it out better at work.

[Cefor]

Damn I got it mixed up, Seraphim have six wings not eight, Cherubim must have eight.... Also they only have one face, I got it all mixed up but the point is they are the 'highest' rank of Angel you can get... according to Christian Angelic Hierarchy.

I am planning on being a Seraph.

[Kage Chaos]

Hmm...

I'll either be a half-breed or fallen. What are fallen? Are they just angels gone bad...or?

[Renos]

There yeah basically angels gone bad, demons gone good ect.

[Kage Chaos]

Mmkay. I'm still going to give it some thought.

[Cefor]

So, Renos any idea what the plot will be?

Post your ideas and we can get it sorted, I'm eager to start this one.

[Renos]

umm, generally the demons are going after a certain angel, (NPC played by me) for some reason or another that i'd love ideas for, the angels want to stop them ect...

IF ANYONE HAS ANY OTHER IDEAS PLEASE TELL ME

[Cefor]

How about having the Fallen (Angels) start in Heaven along with the loyals. Then something happens to make them become Fallen, so they are cast out and they start to hunt the Angels that are on Earth. They instantly become a BIG problem, so God sends a bunch of loyals to sort them out. (Me being one of them as I'll be a Seraph... )

The Demons can then come to the scenes of battle and fight too. Of course the Fallen could work with the Demons if they so wished.

As for the certain angel, maybe the fallen had a group of 'friends' in heaven, and now he is the only one left as a loyal, so they try and kill him to rid them of the memory of his unfaithfulness to them.


Now the Hunters obviously pick up the extra activity of the Higher beings, so they mobilise and start to hunt in larger and larger groups.

Hope that made sense and was ok to use.... if not then doesnt matter.

[Renos]

The angel is a she....
anyway yep thanks i can use that and work with it. yay.

[Kage Chaos]

Well now that I've got a better picture of the story, I'm going to be a half-breed. Not sure which yet, but I'll do a bit of research with my D&D books and see which I like better. (It's likely I'll use the strengths and weaknesses that the book provides for my character, and you're welcome to do the same, ask if you'd like to know what they are and stuff)

I'll post again when I have my character a bit more developed.

[twilightblade]

Hmmm. I might end up a hunter, although a half-breed hunter would be nice... Have to think about this one. Looks to be fun.

[blossom]

Indeed!

Question ... could there be a half breed that was half angel/half demon? Might be interesting.

[twilightblade]

Ohhh! I'd love that!

[Renos]

yeah you can have that.

[Kage Chaos]

Interesting...

[invictus]

What about a hunter that goes after Angels? And also, I'd like some more information regarding the back story, not just the PRESENT story. Like, what the fallen did to become the way they are. Did they do something that inalienated them from "god", causing them to harbor feelings of resent and maybe even hatred towards other angels and even "god" him/her self? Did they lose any abilities in becoming fallen? (they would then have to be able to gain abilities such as dark arts due to not being bound to Zenith anymore, I would think)

And what about the demons side of the story? Is "Lucifer" the one pulling all the strings in Nadir? What's HIS goal in taking over Zenith? What's he after (other than the obvious control over the mortal realm as well as the etherial realm)?

Are all terrans in the mortal realm aware of the exsistance of angels and demons, or just the hunters and their societies? Are we following Christian labels for this? (hence the quotation marks around god, lucifer and the like)

I'm stoeked about this one!!

[Cefor]

I think that God should be used as it is kinda Christian angelology or whatever that I will be going on; although the Loyal angels WILL use honorifics like The Almighty, Lord, Yahweh, etc. etc. I'll also pop the Alpha and Omega in somewhere I think. ( A reason I say use a capital G is 'cos that's His name rather than just a classification. Yeah? So any name has capital why shouldn't God?)

Lucifer/Satan can be used, interchangable. His goal will be something along the lines of taking control of Heaven (Which i assume is Zenith although I've never heard it being called that) and being worshipped by Everyone...

What's Nadir?

Btw, some angels have more than two wings.... six or eight, Biblicly. In the Bible they are the Seraphim and Cherubim, but one of those has four faces too which wouldn't bee good for fiction. Should go with the Constantine style of angel, human in appearance but has wings....yes?

[twilightblade]

Nadir is the lowest point. Hell, basically.

Renos, my character popped into my head, basically full-blown as to looks. Think he's going to have to be a half-angel, half-demon. Angel with black wings?

Jazrade.
