This is highschool dxd inspired roleplay. It is set in an alternate universe in which some events may run parallel to those of the series, but the story will not follow the set events of the series’ canon. That being said, players are likely to and (within reason) encouraged to take creative liberties. Use of canonical characters or items may be permitted. However, this will likely be taken on a case by case basis as we utilize what we need to build our own narrative. [hider= background info] The world as we know it is broken. Blissfully unaware to the truth of the existence of supernatural beings, humanity makes its way through the course of history. Unbeknownst to them, there was a war, long fought between three powers; God and his Heavenly Army, the Fallen Angels, and Devils. It raged for centuries with no end in sight. However, as time passed and each side suffered great losses along with the appearance of unprecedented intrusions on this great war, a treaty of sorts came to pass. Humanity would be left to govern itself. No interference would be made by God or his heavenly army, though humanity would be free to choose who to worship and praise as they pleased. The fallen angels would be left to their own devices provided they refrain from any heinous activities. Devil would continue to rule over the underworld, although they would be able to play with the human world, much unlike the heavenly army. This treaty, weak though it seemed, would come to uphold piece in the coming years for the three great powers. Still, this would do nothing to stop infighting among the devils. With so many of their royal and pure lineages having been destroyed or otherwise broken down, there was a struggle for power. Above the strife and anguish rose the Five Great Satans; Lucifer, Leviathan, Beelzebub, Asmodeus and Belphegor. Although not the originals, these five took up the positions, bringing order to the world of devils. In order to better manage their land and people, they split the world into five parts among them in which each Satan could assign smaller sections to peerages under their rule. And so order has been maintained, although for how long nobody can be quite sure.

Still, here you should also indicate what your character was prior to joining the family. Human? Dragon? Ogre? Nekomata? Fallen Angel? Other?} Ranking: {What is your character’s (intended) evil piece?} Appearance: {Please provide extra information on your character’s appearance. If you find yourself having trouble here allow me to help you. How tall are they? How much do they weigh? Do they have any piercings, tattoos, or birthmarks that might not be included in the face claim?} Skills: {These are things that your character can do that can typically be learned or practiced by just about anybody given time and effort. Nothing really magical or special about it.} [url=http://highschooldxd.wikia.com/wiki/Sacred_Gear]Sacred Gear[/url]: {Does your character have a Sacred Gear? What is it? What does it do? What are its limits? Keep in mind that as far as DxD lore goes, at least to my knowledge, only humans can possess Sacred Gear.} Magic: {Does your character use any magic? What is that magic? What does it do? What are its limits? The criteria is essentially the same as a Sacred Gear. } Strengths: {Give three strengths. That is NOT a maximum, but don’t go overboard. Be reasonable.} Weaknesses: {Every good character is likely to have just as many weaknesses as they do strengths. Provide three, MINIMUM.} Personality: {Who is (Character Name)? What do they like? Hopes? Dreams? Likes? Dislikes? Insight into the deeper aspects of who this character is.} History: {Please provide at least a paragraph, for this portion of the app. If you are having trouble consider the following. How was your character brought to the brink of death? How did they come to be a member of the peerage etc. How long have they been a part of it; a day, week, month, year, etc. I’ll generally be lenient and leave you room to work here, but honestly, it should be coherent and consistent with not just who your character is, but also who my character is. If you wish, feel free to work with me, at least on the how and why they joined the family part. Everything else is all you.} Other: [/hider]
