Guh, I hate starting role plays I never know where to start. Dx;; So I guess I’ll do this “profile style”!

Time Period: Lets make it the late 1800’s early 1900’s <3

Location, Location, Location: It will start out in London for sure but there is no saying where it can go from there! I would like to keep the travel realistic though so I can imagine most of the role play will take place in Europe, mainly Britain, France, and Germany I imagine. But I also don’t want to squish out any possibilities.

Setting: The church of course assures the public that the recent string of murders has nothing to do with the Blasphemous act of magic, but is merely a sinner trying to strike fear into the hearts of the civilians. But the Church itself is behind a murder or two in attempt to stomp out the truth, hide what really IS there. Magic. But the Church isn’t the only one behind the murders another group called the Seraph’s Bane is also behind a slew of murders though both kinds of public are unaware of it, the magic public and the Human public that is. Seraph’s Bane is on the move and is recruiting members what for exactly is unknown, turning down an offer seems to be a very bad idea. Humans are totally unaware of the magical world and the magical world is all too keen on keeping it that way, unfortunately some humans have learned and grown cocky.

OK so now that you’ve got a general idea of what the role play will be like you can start to think of your character you might want to use. <3 And to help you out I have some guide lines on how exactly the “types” work and what kind of options you have because this magical world does have rules just like the scientific world. <3

First lets start off with the three classes of magic people, shall we?

Fighter/Attacker: Pretty much as it says, this person usually uses physical means to bash out their enemy’s brains and what not. Big on synthesis these kids can also use some decent magic.

Support: Like Fuuka! (ahh persona 3 <3) These people can sens just about anything, if they are trained to do so. They also tend to be better with defending than attacking and their magics pertain to mostly curses and hexes but once again only after years of training seeing how curses and hexes are considered “big magics”

Priest: Probably the most important of the three and definitely the weakest. PROTECT YOUR PRIEST! ;D these kids are the power hitters when it comes to magic and they are the only ones who can use Healing magic of any kind, which means they are the only ones who can lift status effects and junk. They however don’t have great attack power or health. So take good care of your priest. <3

Magic Types:

The Seraph’s Order: Is not white magic. ;D It’s LIKE white magic and the attack spells are LIKE holy spells but alas there is no real element in it unless heavenly is an element. ;D Now the mythical or magic animals…? Of this kind of magic are called the heavenly creatures. Now we’re talking stuff like angels, seraphs (watch out for those! They are nasty little bastards!), and a whole bunch of other things I haven’t thought up yet! (Yay for procrastination!) Now the magic symbol for this magic type IS a cross and that is why it is often confused with Christianity which helps the magic world stay hidden, but it also helps the church take advantage of people unfortunately.

The Dominion Order: Pretty much the opposite of the Seraph’s order. Once again this is NOT black magic or anything, it’s Dominion magic and it does have it’s own healing spells and status spells and everything. It is also not evil and Seraph magic is not “good” magic is objective, it is the user of magic that is good or evil. The dominion beasts are known as demons and so you got things like, zombies, trolls, flesh eating monsters and so on. Now there are some more humanoid demons that are technically not beasts. It can get a little confusing with Dominion magic, you’ll just have to play by ear. Now the symbol for this is of course the Pentagram and so this poor little symbol has been deemed evil and satanic by the church to further the illusion of religion and the heap up more power on the human church.

LATER I will put up a list of demons and Heavenly creatures but I want to get the RP up and going before I put that extra work into it.

Now there are other types of magic WITHIN these two types but I doubt we will need to really get into those types considering the fact that they are located in Latin America, India, and Asia. Then again, who knows?
I bet you have a good idea of what you want your character to be like right? ;D –feels like an infomercial- There are separate organizations you can be part of if an organization at all. But remember its always a good Idea to travel in groups of three and if not at least have a priest, but don’t be a priest with out someone to defend you~!

Anyways, the organizations. You CAN be part of Seraphs Bane and you can be part of the human church but I am going to ask you to at least wait until the RP gets off and the motivations and ideals of the two groups become more clear before you really go rushing in, unless you have like an uber idea you just HAVE to act out. xD;; Then again you might just like to be a free lancer and not be tied down. (like me! ;D)

I am going to ask that you send me a PM heads up with some character info before you start off on the role play. Now If you have some super cool secret about your character you want to reveal later on you don’t have to tell me everything so you will get to keep your mystique. Oh and you HAVE to choose one kind of magic or the other, there is no mixing and if it isn’t one of those then you are human. I’ll also put up a Humanoid creature list later so you can find out where your chose race lies within the Magic spectrum.

Oh and yes, I do put too much thought into stuff like this! My next post will be my first official post of this role play. Thanks for reading. <3

“If only humans walked the earth with their eyes open! Then they would not be so vulnerable to evils of the world. The church would not have such a hold on them and they could reach out to those of the Dominion who only wish to help them. Human beings, what sad little lost creatures…” – Baroness Dahlia Odden, found near her mangled body.

The moon was smogged out of the London sky and the existence of the stars had been forgotten, not that it was important to the people of the slums. The latest news of murder was on everyone’s lips, news with a very sad tune. It was Baroness Dahlia Odden, a young woman who cared about the working man and had plans to speak with the king and parliament about laws in their favor. Most people guessed that’s what got her killed. She had a place in everyone’s heart, even the lowest prostitute.

The area around her small mansion was crowded with police and their obnoxious dogs, people stood on the fringes whispering rumors and theories to who the murderer could have been. Most of the people were dressed in their night clothes, having heard the screaming and struggling, and being humans as they are came running into the streets to see what was happening. One bowler cap bobbed about the crowd as a young man, still dressed in his outer wear shifted through the crowd mostly unnoticed. He was in no way interested in the mansion or ther murder or any of the silly rumors the humans made up, oh no he was much more interested in what lurked in the alley ways just down the street.

“He should be trapped there because of all the humans. Which would also cause a public display. Think carefully, little human.” He spoke to himself, his voice was rich and deep, beautiful or perhaps sexual. He however continued on his way almost as if his mouth had one mind and his body had another. In no time his little figure had slipped past the crowd and was heading straight down the empty road, past the gradually larger estates towards a chosen alleyway.

“He would have had to come this way. The allies are all connected by a larger one that leads staright to the Thames from here. You can bet that is exactly where that little --! Ah! There he goes! After Him, Geist!” A shadow had slipped out from an alleyway and not it was running as fast as it’s stubby little legs could carry it towards the Thames River. Geist took off after it, his boots pounding quietly along the street as he chased after the rather round human looking thing that was frantically thrying to waddle towards a boat that waited on the shore of the river.

Geist shoved his dainty hand into the top of his coat, whipping out what looked like a red and black rose with a faint purple glow. With a flick of his wrist it cracked and a thorny whip was now in his hand (yes Geist was inspired by Gaian items, that’s why I love him so much. <33). In a movement with out effort he flailed the whip forwards and grabbed the running man around the neck, the sharp red thorns digging into his flesh causing him to yelp as he was yanked backwards struggling all the while.

The fat man fell at the toes of Geist’s boots sweat streaking his bald little head and his double chins shaking as he looked up to geist pathetically and began begging for his life. “shut up!” Geist demanded, silencing the fat little man on the spot. The fat man still looked up however, trying to peek through Geists wild curley bangs and under his bowler cap, trying to see who was hiding beneath it. “Who ordered you to kill The baroness? I doubt a fat moron like yourself could kill her without an order.” Geist pulled the whip taught the keep the peering eyes away from his hidden face, the fat man now looked up towards the polluted sky.

“Like I would ever tell the likes of you!” he said boldly, fishing around in his coat pocket for something. Geist tightened the grip of the whip around the fat man’s neck, “I am not a patient man, now please tell me or you will force me to snap your neck.” The fat man laughed and Geist began to get impatient, “You don’t know who you are messing with! You magic creatures think you are so tough! The crown will have you put into your place soon enough! Just like that Baroness lass tonight, my wasn’t she a good bit of fun before I finished her off!” The fat man’s voice was bold and his smile was sick.

A silent roar leapt forth from Geist’s lips and he dove down on the man, punching him with leather gloved hands, making the fat ugly face bloody. In his rage Geist had forgotten about the nasty little object the fat man had in his hand, it only took two seconds for it to get lodged in his shpely little hip. Another muted scream and geist was staggering backwards, his grip loosened on the whip the fat man took the chance to jump up to his feet, a nasty smirk on his fat little face.

“why I know you!” he declared triumphantly, the whip still hanging around his neck. Geist glared at him as he regained his footing. Being as ignorant as humans tend to be the fat man was all caught up in his victory, “Why you’re that –“ with a quick grab and tug of the whip handle Geist cut right through the fat man’s neck, removing the head from the body, the head fell to the ground with a soft thump and the body followed with a gross and squishly plop!

“Well that’s just great! You killed our only source of information!” Geist hissed, “You need to learn to control yourself! These things happen all the time! Forget not what you have become! Oh and look now! You’ve gotten us injured!” Geist turned his head and gently prodded the jagged black rock knife that stuck out of his hip, he jerked his hand away the second the tip of his finger touched the knife. “Magic! It’s a cursed Dagger! Someone gave that little b*****d magic! Ugh. Now we will be followed.” Geist hissed, “Quickly we need to find a Dominion sanctum and see if we can’t have someone do something about it.” With a sigh and a straightening of his hat Geist started off, leaving the decapitated body of a once rich man behind him as well as a pair of watching eyes and a smile that spread from ear to ear.

“Well, he definitely IS interesting, isn’t he?” The Flesh eater asked, clacking his jaws as he spoke. “Don’t get too ahead of yourself. It was only that old fat noble he had to deal with. Chances are he will be heading to a sanctum. We can possibly corner him there, after all he can’t get far with a curse eating him.” A more human looking man said, chewing on his bottom lip and tugging at black hair with a nail polished hand.
