Hell's Invasion [Recruiting]

[Herobizkit]

Based on those descriptions, you're looking more for above-average hero-types and less "normal people caught in abnormal situations"? People who can take the fight to the demons themselves?

There will be room to grow and improve skills abilities as we go along, so you need not try starting being terribly heroic. But being a survivor would make more sense. Above average person would appropriate. But when we actually start applying some mechanics, all will be equally balanced.

Question,in this apocalyptic world has there any sign of good beings emerging? Or is it merely demons wreaking havoc on earth.

Having someone good trapped in Hell and then escaping to earth sounds like a good plot hook.
But that would be rare and not something your characters would have heard about. The short answer is “no”.

Sounds like he's asking if there's angels invading too.

I'm going to make a character for this. I'm pretty sure I can handle it. Probably going to go for the soldier route.

 

[Alizaar]

Yea that's what I was getting at,I guess I was a little to obscure in question. More loke if extreme evil is invading is extreme good coming to defend kinda of thing.

 

[perrinmiller]

I had not planned on angels at all. Not bad idea for another plot hook down the road....

 

[Alizaar]

Ok just wondering was going to maybe tie something like in my background. If not no worries.

 

[Shayuri]

Traditionally speaking, outside of Old Testament times at least, demons invade when opportunity allows, having no compunctions from valuing divine interdict or free will of mortal agency. Angels, with both, are more limited in the scope of actions available to them. A full scale war erupting between angels and demons reduces humankind to irrelevancy.

But the potential for an angel here or there acting as an individual exists, I'd think. Taking a risk, bucking explicit orders from the Choir, but moved to act in accordance to what it feels represents the divine will most closely. Unable to intervene directly out of sheer recognition of the forces involved...but angels are not merely soldiers, but sources of mortal inspiration as well. Perhaps that mysterious sorceror who first teaches humans how to unlock the secrets of magic is more than he appears...

 

[perrinmiller]

Exactly, Shayuri. Those thoughts were what I was considering for a potential plot hook down the road.
