RolePlayerRoxas The Thirteenth Something Or Other

Member Seen 3 mos ago

Well, the queue's were long, the weather was stiflingly hot, and the imps jabbing sharp objects into your behind every three seconds are probably relishing the action. It sucks, but hey, if this is all you need to endure just to get a ticket out of Hell, you've suffered far worse already, frankly.

Given that you've been suffering in Hell for god knows how long, you never thought that the opportunity to escape would prevent itself, especially in such... unusual circumstances. But hey, as it turns out, Hell is simply overcrowded now, and even Satan can't handle the massive influx of Sinners that enter Hell by the minute any more. Through some divine miracle (my, how ironic), you were randomly selected to be given the chance to back to Earth and take up a job, essentially working off the Sins you committed in your old life. granted, there's going to be a ton of strings attached to that deal, but screw it, you're getting out Hell, to hell with the catch!

As the line, composed of several hundred-thousand lost souls, slowly shuffles forward, you eventually make out a small row of plain desks, stacked with several piles of parchment and manned by the most bored-looking demons you've ever seen. It almost makes one feel sorry for them. Sure, they've torturing you senseless for the last eternity and three hours, but at least they never made you do paperwork.

After a very, very, very, very super long time (we're guessing about seventy three years), you finally make it to the desks. The fly-headed tentacle monstrosity made of molten flesh dully asks you to grab a form from the left and fill in the blanks...
Sign Up:
Name:
Age: Physically. Feel free to add soul years onto that if you wish.
Appearance: Written or Pictorial.
Personality:
Sin: Just list whatever category their crime(s) were listed under (Wrath, Gluttony, etc).
Job: Whatever role they were given upon entering Earth once more.
Cost: Whatever conditions the soul must fulfil on a weekly or monthly basis, in order to remain in work and earn their way into Heaven.
Other: Any other information you want to add. You can also go over their crimes in more detail here, if you wish.
The mind-rending abomination assures you that, yes, those fields make perfect sense and you should fill them out right now because goddamn that queue is giant. Once you manage that, he slaps a scabby tentacle onto the giant stack to his right, and asks you to quickly review the rules...
Law Of The Chosen Damned

1. This is primarily a comedic roleplay. As such, feel free to make things as silly and outlandish as possible. Even their crimes.
2. Death is not a huge factor for the chosen. Should their body cease to function, they will simply respawn in the area immediately. Do not ask why the body only disappears when no one is looking at it.
3. The 'cost' should be strictly adhered to. Failure to do so is an immediate expulsion back to Hell. So please, for the love of god, do not screw this one up. We're trying to keep you out.
4. Don't bother telling anyone that you're really a zombie or something like that. Who would believe that?
5. For the time being, try not to tept others into Sin. Because, again, over-population.
You are quite convinced these were meant for someone else, but the thing just waves you away to the side, where yet another imp awaits. This time with a branding iron, he grins gleefully as it's pressed against your torso. Once you're done crying and yelling, you see the brand is some sort of insignia, perhaps to identify you in some way?

Afterwards, you're given a ticket and kicked into the infernal gates, thrown into Earth at last! The Ticket has instructions written on it, namely your place of residence and where you're getting to work, as well as the 'District Manager' and their location.
Well, there we go. Feel free to ask me any questions about the setting and stuff. Just let me reiterate; this is primarily comedic, so even if you opt for a rather dark backstory, it shouldn't overshadow the RP's tone. With that said, any character arcs or plots you may have, they can certainly become serious. If.. that makes sense.

Pardon me if this is a dumb question but what does it mean by age physically? What's the difference between that and soul years?

Name: Mizuki Ami

Age: 20



Personality: Ami is cripplingly shy, and if it wasn't for her assigned task would be keeping up the bad old habits of not leaving her residence at all, whilst enjoying the fruits of her secretly perverse nature. When she is forced into dealing with people, and manages to get over the impulse to run and hide from them, Ami is oddly grumpy all the time. Dealing with people is no fun.

Sin: Lust

Job: Working in a Maid Café

Cost: Because Hell is known for ironic punishments, and making people do stuff reflecting their sins to work their way into heaven is fitting, Ami is required to flirt with pretty girls, despite being barely capable of interacting with people in the first place.

Other: Her death involved fire, and stacks upon stacks of hand-drawn art blocking all hope of escape.

The physical age would be how old you look. i.e., how old you were when you died. The soul years would just be adding your time spent in Hell to that.

Ami is accepted.

Name: Kirina Ivgenova
Age: 24
Soul Years: 94
Appearance:


Personality:
Kirina is a bit of a mixed bag. She is strong and is never afraid to stand up for herself, using her appearance and harsh words to intimidate others. She can be slightly abrupt and standoffish towards new comers, but people that know her for a long time describe her as devoted and extremely loyal. She is a bit of a perfectionist, if she has to do something, she will do it well, however she is also kind of lazy, so getting her to do something she doesn't want to is quite difficult. She can be impatient at times and stubborn, she also has a fairly short temper and bad language. When she is in a bad mood, she can be extremely sarcastic.

Sin: Wrath
Job: Nurse
Cost: Must injure herself once every few months.
Other: She died during WWII, and her job is the same as what she was when she was alive.

This is meant to be a comedic RP. That cost... isn't.

I'm not going to go into gruesome details or anything. It's extremely ironic, making it comedic? If the GM says it's not ok though I'll change it.

Name: Sebastian Braun
Age: 28
Soul Years: 46
Appearance:
Personality: He is a very observant person. He doesn't take well to any type of criticism, though he doesn't praise anyone else. He doesn't understand people's emotions when it wouldn't give them any type of profit. He also wouldn't give anyone any type of sympathy for anything. Because of this, he doesn't really have any friends. He will take risks, though if there is way too big of a possible profit loss, he probably won't do it. He is, for the most part, very calm.
Sin: Greed
Job: Scientist
Cost: Must give money to people four times a month
Other:

Well, neither cost is technically invalid, though I would prefer that they be... wackier. Irony's fine and all, but irony alone isn't comedic. Of course, if you're able to make silly applications with the Costs, then all the better.

But anyway, both Kirina and Sebastian are accepted.

Name: Aaron Vincent

Age: 16 physically. 23 in Soul Years.

Appearance:

Personality: Aaron is a Grade A germaphobe and always tries to keep himself nice and sanitized. He is easily frustrated, believing everyone else is crazy except for him, holding little respect for others. He is a very logical thinker and does, at least until frustrated, try to be nice to others. He is a pessimist and a sarcastic soul, making him come off as rude at first glance.

Sin: Envy.

Job: Ironically, a garbage man.

Cost: Every week, Aaron must get himself disgustingly dirty.

Other: His death and sin has to do with someone he romantically loved, putting both at fault for it.

And accepted.

Should hopefully have my character up by tomorrow. And the RP should probably start not long afterward.
