When an angel falls, they go to Earth, or straight to Hell. When a human falls, they eventually
end up here, or they catch themselves in time to start climbing again. But what happens when a demon or devil
falls? They go to the deepest, darkest pit in Hell, never seen again. Then were do they go when they hit rock bottom?
As the humans say, no where left to go but up.





Welcome to the Seven Deadly Sins; no where left but up Discussion thread. This Rp is set in the modern day, where the embodiment of the sins must survive and live amoungst humans, who think they don't exist(and if they do, they'd hunt the sins down), while satisfying their vice. The reason for them being here is that they've lost all respect, all recognition, everything they had with the demons and devils of hell. Now they come up, from one of the most Sinful places on earth, and create their lives anew, while hiding what they are from humans.

Any questions whilst I get to work?

I like the modern-supernaturalish concept so I'll put my interest in. As for the main story will there be some sort of shared goal all our characters will be working towards?

@Sazama

Sorta, more or less I was planning it start with them exiting hell and entering earth Via Las Vegas or Salem or something. Then, from there, maybe have to deal with angels, demon hunters, priests, and what not while trying to make a living and surviving the modern world. If you have any suggestions for a main plot or story, PM me.

Interest checked. I'm already in 2 RPs, one of which I'm co-hosting, and I've got another that I'm in the process of writing up, but I can easily make this be the last that I'll involve myself in.

...

One question though; how do you intend on who gets what Sin? Will you be allowing reserves?

@AdmrlStalfos19

I will judge based on how well someone embodies and personifies the sin they are asking for. Should multiple people make good CS, I'll have them First see if there can be a compromise, if not, I'll have them make sample posts and whoever is in character and with the character behavior they describe, then they will be accepted. Again, if not, I'll ask for second opinion or just pick one if i'm being sloth-ish. (sin pun intentional)

I will allow reserves, but I hope the will be unnecessary, for having reserves is not always a good thing I've learned.

I might allow non-sin characters later in the RP, but only if I see how just the sins will go story wise.

I may have an interest in this. Maybe after I get some coffee I will get a CS together.

I'm super interested! I like the whole concept of the seven deadly sins turned into characters. I'll start fixing up a CS.

Okay, I have many things to say:

Firstly, her background of Pre-Sin-hood is supposed to be how did she get the title of the Sin of Greed. Not her entire existence up till now.

Secondly, demons are seen as evil and sinful, so if she was the greediest, and they hated her for it, how could she gain the title? (apart from those who also wanted the title)

Lastly, the sin ability is an ability on the demon of that sin has. Say, the sin of wrath. His ability could be to make everyone in near proximity angry as all hell, causing them to go into a frenzy, or lust having the ability to seduce anyone they want without effort.

It's a good start, but put more thought into it please.

EDIT: Also, for her real age she's Twenty? because that's what two X's mean in Roman numerals.
And if your trying to say 200, that's kinda young in demonic terms, and that would be CC in roman numerals.
if not going for roman numerials, use actual zeros so it actually looks that way.

Yes, thank you for the feedback! I'll gladly make some corrections, I just wasn't quite sure what you were after initially. Now that I know I hope I can meet the requirements better! If I still muck things up, I'll wait to see how others form their sheets and try to learn from those.
I was indeed going for a 200-something year old, hence the X's. I debated making her older but wasn't quite sure what the other demons' ages would be.

EDIT: I feel dumb for asking, but how should our playable characters lose all recognition in the eyes of demons? Shouldn't they act good or un-devil-like to achieve that? If the title of a deadly sin is something to be desired in Hell, why are our characters forced to leave after losing the respect of others, yet gaining the title?

Because the title was given to over a thousand years prior to modern day, and due to how religion and other trends decline, so did the respect and fame they had in hell. Hence, the titles have become worthless in the eyes of demons.

EDIT: Essentially, the demons, like humans, follow trends just like we do. And when one loses it's fervor, another takes it's place, but it's still there. The sins are no longer regarded in the modern world, and new evils take their place, but they are still there.

Like old actors and celebrities.

As funny as that would be, no. The sins are supposed to be friends/allies, depending on how you see it, and don't want to piss each other off(including wrath). They to work together, or at least help when necessary for their own sake. Plus, I read your ability, and it isn't just that kind of effect. Also something like wrath the angrier he gets, the stronger he is or something. Just in case you don't like the spacial effect.

@Dealdric I'm sorry I keep misunderstanding the questions, I'm trying, promise... xD But yes, I understand why that is. Maybe it's for the best, they would drive each other nuts if that were the case.
