[OOC] The Seven Deadly Sins: Earthbound

[Dealdric]

"So...you wish to hear the tale of the seven cardinal sins?
Well, if I must. Where shall I start? The beginning? Or the end?
Or maybe in between?
How about I start with the inciting incident...
...how the sins left Hell."

---

Welcome Seven Deadly Sins...and we are Earth Bound. A friend of mine has given us safe passage to the mortal realm. We may be in the dumps, yes, but us as demons, we never fit in anyhow. We were simply their temporary idols, and even Satan himself, our king, our master, has betrayed us. Let's see how the mortals like us in a different, closer light. No more shadows, no more lies. Times have changed, my friends, so we will change with it.

---

So here's the rules:

READ ME

1. Do not argue in the OOC. IT PISSES ME OFF. >:[
2. As GM, ask me questions when necessary, and show respect to me and all others.
3. Godmode is unavailable to you, except your characters can't die. You can be captured and demons are far from perfect creatures.
4. Do not excessively curse. Make it creative and with flow.
5. R rating, but no visible sex and naughtiness.
6. After we have all the sins, no more acceptations.

basic pre-story Lore

Hell in this story works of the trends of the human world to create the best evil to scare and corrupt people with. The sins were those celebrities for centuries. But all things change. New evils rose and knocked the sins off their pedestal. They were sent to the darkest bowels of hell, no longer having pleasures that they wanted. But not all was lost. A mortal, knowing all that happens in hell, wanted to put them back in the spotlight. He made the ritual, payed the price, and invited them to earth. Now they just needed to accept the deal and remake themselves on earth.

Can I post my sheet in the character tab or does it need changes? (It's in the interest check topic)

@Cio

She's good. Post up.

As for the rest, post them here in the OOC for review.

[Lilaen]

Modified the background a little.

Lust

Lust

Demon Name

Mag'mora The Collector
Mag'mora The Insatiable
Valgrath Reg'anvrel
Soot-spawn
She goes by many names...

Gender

Typically female, though known to manifest as however she pleases.

Appearances

"What is it your heart desires? No, not heart, perhaps a little lower..."

Lust most often favors the form of a pale and slender blonde woman with a penchant for taut dresses and high heels. She is the inciter, the tease the instigator. Every look is practiced, not a hair out of place.	Suave and capricious, Lust's human disguise extends beyond those craving the female form. Perfect hair, a piercing gaze and a knowing smile, he seems endlessly amused by some naughty joke.	Mag'mora's true form is effervescent and ever shifting, but unyielding when she chooses. 'She' has many mouths full of teeth, appendages with claws and pincers, wisps of delicate shadow and elongated wings stitched together from various leathers.

Pre-Sin-hood Biography

Personality & Age

Mag'mora wasn't always so sensational. She crawled from the shadows, the nooks and crannies of the Underworld where collected the soot and grime of lives past. Incrementally, she formed, rolling from den to den, collecting their shorn off pieces and emotions. She liked those. Growing, meandering and assembling the body parts and feelings from other demons, Mag'mora eventually grew into her own power. She could produce any appearance from her little collection. She could cause any emotion to brew and bubble over in those around her. She rode this power trip for centuries, but all good (or very naughty) things come to an end. In time, the demons who once adored and respected her found someone to be a 'better Lust' a 'fresher Lust'. She was accosted by her lessers as they desired their sentimentality back and left only with the first and strongest of passions that became her namesake. She grew into this niche just as she had before, engorged with the desires of others given willingly, wantonly, but forsaken by her peers and banished to live among the mortals.

Lust is, as most or all demons, evil. She craves power. However, unlike other demons, she can pry it from mortals and demons alike in the form of their passion, their love, their desires, their desperation. She is cool, manipulative, arrogant, vain and merciless. Mag'mora is one of the oldest of demons, fallen though she has. As soon as there was touch, there was Lust.

Likes and Dislikes	Special Sin Ability
In the absence of direct acquisition power, Lust desires beautiful people and things. She likes precious metals, gems, anything that others seem to put a value in. She enjoys putting on the façade of a delicate creature, woe-beholden to being carried around by her lessers. She dislikes weakness and fools. She has a sharp tongue, a quick wit, and will not abide authority over her.	"Mortals are so easy to play with." Mag'mora possesses a slew of forms, from traditionally attractive and luxuriously sexy to horror-bound and sanity-testing. While she cannot use her power to manipulate the emotions of others as she once could, she certainly has an edge when it comes seducing a mortal to do what she wants.

OOC Notes
Pronouns: While normally I would totally stick to one gender for a character, this creature is something different. She is an abomination of pieces from countless demons and mortals and can manifest however she pleases. I'm using the 'she/her/hers' pronouns predominately, but there might be times when she appears male! Then we can use 'he/him/his' pronouns, or not. It doesn't matter and just to be completely clear: this isn't a commentary about transgender characters and pronoun usage. This is literally a demon.<3
Mature Content: Even though I'm playing literally Lust, don't worry about reading smut! Yes, she'll flirt with everything and make some naughty comments, but that's it. Any sex this character is involved with will only be implied.

[Dealdric]

@Lilaen

the pre-sin-hood has not changed.

Please a just it.

[Lilaen]

[@Daeldric]
It has changed. Could you be more specific about what you want and what you don't want people to write on their character's backgrounds?

[Dealdric]

@Lilaen

Okay, well my problem with your background is that she was banished. None of the sins were banished, simply usurped and forgotten to the deepest parts of hell. The story begins with them going to earth as a group.

[Lilaen]

Okay! Thank you for being specific.

[WittyReference]

Sin: Wrath

True Name: Getrus the Indomitable

Alias: Jerry Samson

Sex: Male

Apperances:

Hider

Hider

Age and Pre-Sin-hood Biography: Gretus began life as any lesser demon in Hell, his existence serving solely to feed those more powerful than himself, an endless cycle of death and rebirth. Suffering begat hatred, hatred begat Wrath. Devoured, charred, torn asunder, with each death the whelping became stronger. Those who managed to overcome him were themselves made stronger by absorbing his anguish. By merely existing, Hell was strengthened. This cycle continued for aeons, a constant battle for survival all the while fueling the very beasts he sought to destroy until eventually there were none who could stand against Him. Gretus the Indomitable was born for the last time, a creature that had reshaped the face of His domain in his own image, a food chain turned on its head, war as far as the eye could see.

Personality: Getrus exists through sheer force of will whether for better or worse. Quick to rash action and slow to forgive, once the Wrathful One has chosen an enemy he will not rest until their bones are ground to dust. His meager form often fools foes into a false sense of security and as such Jerry maintains a facade of ineptitude while on Earth, choosing a form that would befit the arrangement. Determined, manipulative and destructive, Getrus the Indomitable embodies the savagery of combat as well as the subtlety of war.

Likes and Dislikes
Several thousand lifetimes of death and destruction have taken the sting of defeat. Instead, Gertrus respects a cunning or overwhelming victory against him. He likes facing worthy opponents even when beaten as such losses only serve to extend his own powers. Conflict is the true nature of all things and so he finds all forms vital. The weak serve to feed the strong, the strong serve to cull the weak. Since coming to Earth, Jerry has discovered animal documentaries to be especially fascinating.

Special Sin ability
With millennia of warfare under his belt, Getrus' meager form belies impossible levels of strength and endurance. He also possesses a military intellect but nearly always forgoes such planning in favor of brute force.

[Dealdric]

@WittyReference

I'm okay with most of it, but there isn't an individual plane of existence for each sin. Hell is hell here. You can keep the constant battling and killing, cause that matches wrath pretty well, but yeah.

Once that's fixed he can go in the CS tab.

[JackDLemmy]

@Dealdric
Hey, just stopping by to mention I"m still here, working on my CS. Should have it up by the day's end
(so long as my internet connection doesn't act up again.)

[Dealdric]

@JackDLemmy

I'll make sure no one takes your sin

[JakRipper88]

If your still looking for sins I'd like to throw my name in for Gluttony. (will post CS if avalible)

[Dealdric]

@JakRipper88

It's available.

Write and sin away!

[JakRipper88]

@Dealdric
Sin: Gluttony

Demon Name: Baal-zebul

Gender: Male

Appearances:
Demon form

Human form


Age: born when one of the first humans died from starvation.

Pre-Sin-hood Biography: Born into a pack of flesh hungry ravager demons Baal-zebul knew nothing but the cruelty of hunger, as the smallest in the pack he was never strong enough to fight for food causing him to become so ravenously hungry that he became completely consumed by it, turning on his pack he began to eat all of those that had denied him sustance, yet even in this he found no satisfaction so he continued to eat anything and everything that he could find.

In time his constant consumption cause him to grow to such a point that he came to tower over other ravager demons, but with his increased size brought on an increase to his already bottomless appetite, causing him to go out and trek all across hell in search of a meal large enough so as to finally quell his appetite.

Personality: As the embodiment of Gluttony Baal tends to focus more on achieving his own satisfaction than getting mixed up in the effect he has on others, a quality he greatly respects in both humans and demons alike, while less likely to get mixed up in the affairs of humans and more likely to take matters of importance into his own hands he has little influence over them, existing only to increase the feelings of selfishness and distrust that all humans possess.

Likes and dislikes: As Gluttony Baal likes selfishness, self-indulgence, restaurants (buffets especially), chefs and above all else food, he dislikes hunger (feeling it in himself), charity, wastefulness and anyone who refuses to eat his cooking.

Special Sin ability: Baal possess a endless appetite and is able to eat anything, its this constant air of dissatisfaction that causes others around him to overindulge in acts that they believe will grant them satisfaction, be they simple or harmful any human effected will find no satiation from the act yet will always repeat it.
