Just quick check of interest in a concept.

It's a Players x DM style thread where the PC's are demigods seeking ascension to godhood.

The demigods are from all walks of life, but all have been elevated to demi-godhood by a patron god by somehow earning the favour of said God. Be the PC a former saint or martyr, perhaps a champion of the God or simply some bloke who earned the attention of a God, they have all gained a spark of divinity, endowed by their Patron Deity and part of their Patron Deity. Unfortunately, to ascend to true Godhood and stand alongside the Gods, they must venture into Hell to fetch the Stone of Ascension stolen from the Gods.

It's a simple Dungeon crawl and a tour through the 9 layers of Hell to finish a go fetch quest.
Sounds easy enough right?

Below is an general outline of the Layers of hell.

Interested... very much so sir. I am giddy to see what you have in store for us.

Well I'm in too. I like your style Grey Dust. I'll be around.

Well that's two so far. This is good. I'll try and see if I can get everything Drafted by the end of the week. Most of it will be done through the RP itself but the immersion's going to be on my part to create the fantasy realm and set the tone hopefully.

Everyone else is free to contribute along as well for the ride. Although since we are starting out as Demigods, I expect everyone to be "reasonably unreasonable" with their characters, so feel free to let your creativity run wild. They are after all going through Hell, so pack accordingly. The Dukes of each layer have the ability to corrupt a normal soul easily, but a demigod will have some protection.

It would be great to have every Demigod have at least one character flaw which may or may not be exploited in the layers of vice if not by your fellow roleplayers...

I could be interested.

Consider me interested

Looks like a job for... ECLIPSE!

This could be interesting.

Looks great. Very interested

Quite a few interested. This is good.

i think i'll hop in as well *pets grey with a cactus* :P

Okay, given that we have 8 people seemingly interested, I've written up a skeleton CS.

Name: Kalico
Title(s): Demon wind, ominious one, The hated one, i think he just stole my wallet!, mother fucker

Patron God: Typhon, titan of calamity
Patron’s Domain: As the father of all monsters and herald of all things apocalyptic, his gifts convey the total control of all things monstrous (excluding the undead and things of an eldritch nature because that would be retarded) as well as control over storms, earthquakes, flaming goats falling from the sky, pretty much anything along those lines.

Aspect of Patron’s Domain: Calamity and monsters

Appearance:

Black feline beastman (furry basically because i'm pulling him from elsewhere) of around 5'11, thin with a bit of muscle, yellow left eye and blue right eye, though most can't tell as he always appears to have them closed.

General Apparel: Black jeans, loose t-shirt, and a red trench coat with layered armor built in

Armor/Weapons/Equipment: Armored trench coat, dual metal fans

Magical/Divine Abilities: Wind/storm magic mostly, earth/destruction magic rarely, Eyes of domination (Explanation: the only divine ability he has, any monster locked in his gaze cannot disobey a given order even after the gaze has been broken) almost never unless something really pisses him off.

Celestial hatred: all other gods hate him. all of them. from every pantheon. ever. typhon is the only being in the celestial plane that likes him and it's specifically because he hates all the other gods too. so much celestial hate causes him to have so much bad luck he's had to learn wind and earth magic so he can prevent meteors from falling on him at the age of 12

Personality: logical and blunt. When he hates something, you will know it.
Likes: Honesty, peanut butter and honey sandwiches, Men, and wrecking the ever loving shit out of assholes.
Dislikes: gods, assholes/dueche bags, and dishonesty
Fears: the encroaching effects of stupidity and ignorance on society at large.
Aspirations: becoming a god so he can punch zues in the dick. no shitting you, he literally just want to punch most gods in the dick personally.

Relationships: None
Allies: Typhon, and Most sentient monsters
Enemies: Every pantheon ever. Seriously. he's pissed all of them off at some point or another.
Loyalties: nope

History: Kalico was born to a poor family, the thirteenth child and also a seventh son of a seventh son, putting him in an odd posistion where the village elder was torn on whether to have him executed to trained as a priest, so he did a mix of both: he discommunicated him at the age of three days old and booted him out of the village. At the age of twelve he came back, beat the shit out of that elder's replacement, realized it was the wrong elder, and went to go beat the shit out of THAT elder and actually managed to kill him due to his old age and Kalico's talent for magic. After killing his previous elder, kalico took some time to go through the small, rural village he'd been born into and personally smacked all of the stupid ones upside the head, defaced their idols, and told them and all they worshiped to kiss his ass. As you can probably guess, this is about when the first meteors started falling. Ever since then it's been pretty much the same old story of him coming across a village, fucking it's priesthood (sometimes literally depending on the priests *looks vaugely at the slaaneshi precepts*) and then defacing their idols, pretty much becoming a hated demon in the eyes of most people. In his travels he came across the large amounts of "adventurers" that were little more than genocidal maniacs with giant, throbbing murder boners for monsters. He very swiftly expanded his swathe of destruction to included adventurers, earning him the respect and adoration of most any sentient monster and even the non-sentient ones in some occasions, causing him to become truly noted by Typhon, which personally possesed the nearest satyr, gave him a hug, and gave him his blessing, naming him his next great prophet. After a few years he got pointed in the direction of hell and told "go in there, get some orb satan stole, and you can punch the gods right in the dick personally" so off he went. i'm not good with bios. i don't like them and i find them to mostly be unneccessary info dumps that are dry and boring to read. hope you found this one at least sort of enjoyable :P
