Hi guys-- Did anyone have dibs on Lust or Envy? I am inspired by this idea and would gladly write for either of them, or potentially Gluttony, depending on what other people want/where I fit best. I'll work on and post a CS for Lust once we get an OOC thread. I think I can do her justice. I'm rusty on forum roleplaying, but if you'll have me, I'd love to join.

Hi! I'm new to the site, but not so much to rping. This looks really cool. Are there any spots open, and if so, which sins?

@Lilaen
Lust is indeed available to you.

@JackDLemmy

Gluttony, Wrath, Envy, Pride.

Lust was recently claimed, another has greed, and one I've yet to see has sloth.

@Dealdric I'm assuming that you'll be taking on the role of the world we live in.

Either way, I'm interested. If there's no major objections, I'd like to lay claim to wrath.

Okay, some problems.

For one, I said earlier that the sins were respected, and their titles had value until the last century or so. Set would no longer be a general, yes, but instead much stronger and with more say in what happens until the sins are disregarded.

Secondly, the ability. I said make it reasonable to the sin. Yes, it doesn't have to be inspire humans with that sin, but as I told the holder of Greed, it could be something that only affects that demon.

Work on it a little more please.



@Lilaen

I have only one issue, and that is with the pre-sin-hood. She could have been made in a similar way, but ripped apart and cast out? No, the sins had great power, then they lost it when others were more feared and avoided. The sins are demons who gained their title because the demons saw how the made the mortals fear what the caused. Demons looked up to them, but others did hate them, but the sins were just under Lucifer and the Archfiends. Demons would make a plan that took decades to usurp their power. Other than that, I'm fine with her...he...it...thing.




For everyone's knowledge, the main thread will be up tonight.

Okay, happy to modify it however. I tried to write vaguely on purpose and I think it'll help when we have the OOC thread for you to put your ideas on paper. It's a little unclear what the significance of Sin-hood is and what leads to that and why these characters have been cast out-- so we can solidify that in the main thread.

In the mean time though, it sounds like as Sins, they are too powerful for the idea of just being overrun by other demons. So maybe there is some meta reason why all of these Sins are being cast out of Hell at the same time? (Like a change of Archfiends or something) That would give all of our characters reason for being on the surface and give us a mutual enemy as we strive to regain our power and return (if that's what we want). What'chu think?

Yeah I agree with that statement. I think it's part of the reason I've been struggling so much to write Ag'thal's pre-sin-hood part of her sheet; we dont really know that much about the workings of the underworld and how all that is supposed to work. I've already made some adjustments to my sheet, but I'm thinking it's still off from what you're looking for.

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.


Hell works a lot like our world. But think of it like Hollywood. Celebrities rise and fall, and often replaced by who people want or like. The sins got were like the superstars, Lucifer the executive producer, the archfiends the board, and everyone else filling different roles based on what as needed. But hell is a lot less lawless, demons breaking the rules all the time. And Demons who are jealous or hateful towards the Sins, thinking they deserve the spotlight, plotted and fought their way to where they were in the prime situation to through the sins of their pedestals. The sins , angry, depressed, and betrayed, had nowhere to go but the deepest parts of hell. This Rp is them going to the mortal plane, or our world, to start life anew, causing some hell all the while, and dealing with challenges they've never had to deal with before.

Can I finish the main thread now?

@Dealdric Okay so I finished a somewhat major-ish rework on my character, there's a lot of changes and new stuff in every part of her CS. I hope that's more something you were looking for :-D

Awesome, sounds good and I can fit to that.

Can I finish the main thread now?

I hope that wasn't as sassy as it sounded in my head! xD Since we aren't in your head and this is original content, its hard for us to know what you're thinking and what would fit in the world or not. Me asking about more was not a critique or criticism. Excited for the main thread and to read what you've got.

Oh. My apologies. I misunderstood and thought you meant that sloth was the only one free.
So then are Gluttony, Wrath, Envy, Pride still free?
