The cosmic battle between all that is good and just, and all that is chaotic and selfish, has been going on throughout our universe since time began. The names of the fighters change- Angels, Bodhisattva, Kami, Demons, Oni- every culture had a name for the combatants, because every town, every city, every country is a battlefield.
The forces of chaos have recently set up shop in the town of Robertsville, Kentucky. Population 15,000. Two factories and three high schools. A couple coal mines. Until three years ago, there was nothing of note here. No, a string of night clubs and a small casino have begun to breathe life into this once dying town. No one really knows who is funding all these new establishments, and not many people really care. A few have seen a tall man in a rich green jacket around the premises at late hours, too well dressed to be either staff or regular patron. Around the same time, people in the local night clubs are starting to disappear. And while the humans are assuming either a rash of young runaways or at worst, a serial killer, the Angels can tell there's something else at work here. A team has just arrived in Robertsville to begin the task of looking for compatible humans to become Guardians to, a symbiotic relationship which will allow the Angels to fight in the physical world, not just the spiritual one.
The Rules:
1.) There will be up to four other people attached to this RP. I would also respectfully request a co-GM as I suck at writing action.
2.) Each writer must write TWO characters- an angel and a human.
3.) Each writer's human must be paired to another writer's angel to interact fully with the human universe.
3a.) Your angel is visible to the human population but is de-powered in the human world unless paired with said human.
4.) Your objective- find the source of the disappearances, the green-eyed demon, and put a stop to them.
5.) (and perhaps most important) Check your religious convictions at the door, please. None of the Angels knows the ultimate origin of life, the universe and everything. They are too far down the command ladder to know if God or the gods is/are real, male or female, or if there's nothing at all. In their minds, they are simply a more powerful, mystical race intent on protecting the physical from the power of the metaphysical.
So... any interest?
