Default Shadow to Light

When the sun spies even the smallest object, it hits the object and fills it with light. Except no matter how bright the sun shines on the object there will always be a shadow. No matter how many lights shine around the object, there will still be darkness upon the object. It cannot be destroyed. Light, however, is much easier to deminish. By simply taking out the source, light will no longer exist. No matter the situation, no matter the story, no matter the concept, darkness will always exist. Nothing can exist without the darkness. Yet somethigs can exist without the light. This is a balance that causes many things to shroud themselves in the darkness, trying to escape the light. Once the soul is smothered by darkness, the being becomes what every one has come to call evil. Thus is the true definition of evil. To completely abolish the light. Light has much greater promise but is much harder to find. Only the strongest can hope to obtain light.

Every living thing is born with the light in their soul. But also with darkness in their soul. That darkness is apart of them just as much as the light. This darkness can become a being itself, or stay with the human. These shadow beings, or Nightmares, are the being's opposite self. The Nightmares' one mission is to contain their opposite's soul in darkness. Once that is acheived they plunge darker and darker thoughts into the being. In doind so they themselves grow more and more powerful. The same is the opposite. If the being showers it's soul in the most light it can, the Nightmare grows weak.

Nightmares are basicly living shadows, and cannot leave the presence of a real shadow. Some aquire a suit of armour to protect themselves. These nightmares are usually more powerful, and they are more bound to covering the being's soul in darkness. The others only show their faces at night.

From hopes and dreams arise light. Therefore the Nightmares target the being's dreams above all else. They pioson their minds with nightmares. If the being's mind it filled with light, then it will be much harder for the nightmare to penetrate the being's mind.

Nightmares are almost never seen.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Story

A few years ago, more and more beings' hearts were tumbling into darkness. More and more Nightmares were succeeding in their mission to plunge dark desires into their being. The balance was being upsetted. The light was being cut. Without light, the world cannot survive. It was falling apart.

The Nightmares' succeess was not without reason. One regular occaisons, Nightmares to not help each other out. A human with a heart so filled with dartkness gained the ability to see them. Her Nightmare was a most powerful armoured Nightmare. Because of the darkness in her heart, he gained intelligence abouve all the other primitve thinking Nightmares. He gave her the idea if if she could gain control over all Nightmares, she could gain ultimate power. It took some time, yet the Nightmares eventually commited. Working together, it was easier to take a mind. Even for a light filled mind it is hard to resist more than one Nightmare.

In order to balance itself, nature created a new being, opposite the Nightmare. The reason for the Nightmare's creation was that many, many years ago, the light had been thrown out of whack. The world cannot reside on all light or all darkness. Now the tables were turning. Nature gave every being a Gaurdian Angels to even out the darkness and fight the Nightmares.

The angel who was chosen to be the Ruler of Nightmares's angel, (who I will allow one person to rp as) was one of the more strong willed Angels. Yet the angel did not choose to follow the rules of being a Gaurdain Angel. They were supposed to purify the girl by giving her pure thoughts and feeling, but instead they destroyed her Nightmare. It had never happened before that a Nightmare died before it's being. Without a Nightmare to govern her thoughts, the girl was purified instantly. She was given the ability to see Angels because of how pure her thoughts were. Her angel was cast out of the Gaurdian Angels. The girl was the first being to have no Nightmare or Angel. She was in charge of her own thoughts, however, she gave herself pure thoughts.

The Nightmares, though primitve, knew that having a leader made them strong, so they found a new leader they called the Lord of Darkness (I will also allow someone to be). The angels declared full out war on the Nightmares.

Now it is your turn to decide, what side of the heart have you fallen to? Will the Nightmares take you into their realm? Or will the Angels sing you their song?

Places/People


~Humans~

((rules with being a human- Humans are not born with the ability to see Nigthmares and Gaurdian Angels, make up a creative reason why you can see them. DO NOT COPY MY IDEAS!! There's nothing I hate more! Maybe a star shard fell in your eye? Maybe you found a pair of magic glasses that allow you to see them. I don't care! Be creative!))
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rokkcara

Here's a pretty little town. It's surronded by hills so it looks like its at the bottom of a grassy bowl. The houses here are made of mostly stone and staw roofs. It's a poorish town, but everyone is happy and gets along. It is located to the west of the Steel Lake (a lake that looks like a slate of steel). There are Pine tree forests all around.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Koland

This is more of industrial city. The houses are bigger and made of wood. It is located south of the Silver Line Forest. It gathers it's supplies from the outskirts of the Silver Line Forest and from the pine forest. It is just west of the Steel Lake. Across the small lake you cannot even see the houses in Rokkcara because of the bowl Rokkara is in. No human from Koland is allowed to enter the Silver Line Forest. No one has ever returned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Avalaar

Avalaar is Koland's Northern border. It is a wide open, spacious farming town that goes on for several miles. Avalaar and Koland make good business partners.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
~Oronas~

(Rules- Oronas are human like creatures who are born with the ability to see Nightmares. They have a terrible attitude toward humans. I only want a few Oronas. They may be a bit brutal, but it's only because they believe that humans are evil. the Nightmares are carful to hide from them.))
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Silver Line Forest

The wood on the trees are always silver. Even one step into the Silver Line and it becomes darker than night. Only a strage blue light that seems to emit from the trees can light the way. But the light dulls the farther in you go. Only the Oronas that call it home can walk more than twenty steps into this place and still be able to navitgate. The forest is also silent. The Oronas make no sounds when they breate and speak in wispers. No animals make any noises. It is dead silent. No foliage can grow on the ground except fungi for the lack of light. Even in the darkness they are exposed to, they are harder to bring their hearts to darkness than humans.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
~Gaurdian Angels~

((Rules- once again only a few may be an Angel. first to claim the one from the story gets it. That will be the only fallen angel i allow.))
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cloud Kingdom

You guessed by the name. Wihile most of the time Gaurdian Angels follow their being around, they do vist their sunny home in the clouds from time to time. The castle is made of diamond, the light spills color every where from the diamond.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
~Nightmares~
((Rules- One person may be the Lord of Darkness. Nightmares have primitve thoughts, you may want to be the Nightmare of someone who has a dark heart so that you gain intellegence.))
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Volocano

A firery bit located in an inactive volcano a few miles to the east of Rokkara. You can probably just imagine the appearance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
~Demons~

((Rules- here's the one that every one wil want to be. ONLY ONE OR TWO! After the Ruler of Nightmares's Angel fell, a one or two after them fell. They then fell in love with Nightmares. Nightmares never even fall in love with each other, it is an EXTREME rarity that somethign like this happens. A demon is the offspring of an Angel and a Nightmare. They live among the humans, and humans can see them.))

Rules

I know people hate rules, but I use rules in my rps. if you don't want to read them, then here's the simple version. Don't swear, if you join, stay, don't godmod, be at least semi-literate, and keep it under pg-13. If you fail to keep the rules, I will warn you and have you read the long ones. If you fail again, you will be removed from the rp. I REALLY hate rule breakers. ALSO- i like people who twist the plot. They are my friends. I will NOT get mad at you unless you break one of my rules.

Language

I am very strict about swearing. Swearing does not belong in my story and I do not appreciate rule breakers. I understand that you may slip up and I will warn you, but if it appears that you are purposley dissobeying this rule you will be romoved.

Long Term

This is my third biggest pet-peeve. I hate it when people join and quite. When you jion, you are commiting to me that you will stick with it.

Godmodding

This is pet-peeve number one. Godmodding is more than just atuo hitting. You cannot suddenly poof! next to someone else and destroy all the enemies by them. Sure, your person can be poweful. But you cannot have faster reflexes than you actually should have. Example- say you have ice powers. Bad- jumping on the helicopter, avoiding the propellers and then freezing them, jumping off and watching as the helicoptor smashes. Good- throwing a rock in the engine of the helicoptor and roasting hotdogs in the fire. ^^. Example- Bad- a fire tornado is headed at me to I put up a sheild of rocks that I summoned from hundreds of miles under the surface of the earth. Good- using wind to below around the dirt and turn the fire to glass. Just be smart people.

Literacey

Finally, here's pet-peeve number two. Semi-Lit at least please! Just remeber to put thoughts in italics and speaking in quotes, and no *action* or cht spk cuz it iz rlly annying isnt it puls its rlly hrd 2 read.

CHARACTER LIMIT!
3 Characters

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ummm... Age the same as what? I'm confused on what your asking. Your age has to be at least more than 13... ^^;

Sure, you can have a demon. :3

~:..:Name:..:~
Salowyn
~:..:Race:..:~
Nightmare
~:..:Age:..:~
27
~:..:Powers:..:~
The obvious (strength, stealth, agility) as well as the ability to mold shadow. He can stretch shadows further into the light to suit his purposes or make them corporeal for a brief period of time.
~:..:Bio:..:~
Salowyn grew up on his own. He became aware of himself first and was alone; since then, solitude has been his preferred mode d'etre. He learned his powers in a crude and natural way and always liked to think it was the way his ancestors before him had learned them. Though his mode of upbringing led his personality even toward his own kind to be ferally crude and unkind, Salowyn is wise, if immature. He has always felt his destiny beating his heart for him, and he chooses to follow it.
~:..:Other:..:~
Salowyn's moral code consists only of this: follow your heart and your way shall be true.
~:..:Appearance:..:~


~:..:Name:..:~
Aetheriel
~:..:Race:..:~
Human (? See bio )
~:..:Age:..:~
18
~:..:Powers:..:~
Able to see both Nightmares and Angels, innately skilled with the sword, keen to emotions and sensibilities of nature (the earth, not the nature of Man)
~:..:Bio:..:~
Aetheriel's parentage is unknown. She was raised by her father, forced to endure flighty talk and rumours all throughout Rokkcara (where she was raised) about her mother being some beautiful succubus who had seduced her father when he was in a drunken stupor. Her father denied all rumours, but couldn't ever confirm who Aetheriel's mother was or wasn't. Perhaps out of a sense of guilt, her father worked hard to spoil her, dressing his lovely daughter in light, otherworldly clothing to match her oddly calming beauty. In spite of this, Aetheriel managed to keep her humility.
~:..:Other:..:~
Aetheriel seeks to find her true mother. ((Salowyn can be her Nightmare or someone else can be, if they'd like))
~:..:Appearance:..:~



~:..:Name:..:~
Bronwyn
~:..:Race:..:~
Angel
~:..:Age:..:~
18
~:..:Powers:..:~
Communicates with earthy elements, limited healing powers, rejuvenates more quickly in the sunlight
~:..:Bio:..:~
Bronwyn was born with Aetheriel. All she knows is being Aetheriel's Angel. Being small and fairylike (mostly unlike her Angel brethryn), she knows her charges pain and seeks only to abolish it. Though her heart is bold in pressing situations, her head constantly tells her to stay out of trouble and so she tries to steer Aetheriel thusly.
~:..:Other:..:~
Bronwyn's code of survival: live to die another day.
~:..:Appearance:..:~
