Guys, can everyone please make sure to add to the wishlist as we're looking to put the OOC up by mid-week.

The most important sections will be the lore, the rules and the name for the thread. Please give your input ASAP.

Maybe some less polarized angelsvand demons? From what I've read they are respectively always lawful goodvand always chaotic evil. I don't mind these tropes on their own but am worried they will make the background conflict entirely black and white. Maybe expand on the chimeras or introduce some moral ambiguity to the conflict? For example I could easily see a high-ranking angel resort to evil acts for the greater good.

On the subject of rules, I place great importancr on magic A being magic A. That meaning magic users should be consistent in what they can and cannot do. (Example: a necromancer can interact with the dead but holds no sway over the living). On a more OOC level I'm in favor for a soft posting order. Some organization helps, but it is always in the interest of the group to be able to skip over people's turns if they're taking too long.

I can't think of a title off the top of my head. But please just don't make it a cliche deluxe level title.

That is the RP before this one. A brief glance through the characters should settle any worries you have about black and white. If not, read the IC. Essence isn't 'Angels good, Demons bad, Humans do whatever you please' Essence is a layered RP. For some characters it's about the nature of the person vs the nature of the beast. Humanity vs what you've become. For some it's about doing whatever it's called for a higher power they believe in. The belief that they have to do whatever they can do to fix it. For other characters it is a simple quest of bloody vengeance, killing any and all between them and their targets.

Still others it's a desperate roll of the dice for survival, putting yourself at the mercy of people who should hate you.

As for magic it is generally consistent among the Angels and Demons. There is a lot of flexibility among humans, but that's because their magic was literally thrust upon them with no plans or consistency. It is as adaptable as they are, allowing limitless possibilities (within Wind's approval of course)

The posting order is very flexible as no one is required nor expected to stay in a main group. We could have three or more separate groups for all we know.

As for the name, frankly, if you don't like it don't join.

I think that sums up the feeling in general. You don't have to join this if you find it too young adult, black and white, what have you. If it's not your cup of tea don't bother joining. We won't shoot you or anything. Promise!

If you do join all I can promise is your suggestions will be listened too. Implemented is another matter entirely.
