2. Any problems speak to me first via pms.
3. 18+ Stuff, blood guts and gore at fine. 18+ Physical interactions are to be taken into pms. Any questions please ask.
4. Try to post atleast once per week. If you need more time then let me know.
5. Characters need to be approved 100% by me on the ooc section before you can post in-character with them.

Setting:

The world of Shal'var is a world teaming with life that makes itself known from the northern frigid pole to the southern great desert. The life itself comes in many different shapes and forms ranging from simple animals like cows, sheep, dogs and lizards to the great beasts such as Dragon's, Chimera's and Manticore's. Scattered across each of the vast continents, making them homes in the places most suited to them are the mortal and elder races; Humans, Dwarves, Halflings, Giants, Elves and many more. Each race as distinct from each other as a flower is to a tree, and while most of these races live in peaceful co-existence with battles and wars thought only for some ancient slight or fresh bout of conquest from risen tyrants, there is one race who have set their sights upon total dominion of all life through conquest, trickery, seduction, bribery and what ever means they have at their disposal.

This race is known as Devils.

Rumor has it that the Devil's were once Angels, turned dark by their eternal war with the Demons that come from the outer realms intent of consuming all life and souls. Some say that Devil's are the very embodiment of sinful and dark desires made manifest to test the world at the whim of Deities long since departed from the mortal realm. While there is much speculation on the origins of these fiends what is universally accepted is their dark desire for dominion.

The devils make their home on Kali'dar, the largest of the continents of the world with their cities scattered about the volcanic mountainous range known as the Dragon's Teeth, where their cities of obsidian, iron and brass rise from the darkened earth and stone to form towering cities of dark beauty.

Each city is ruled by a Devil Lord or Lady who was the founder of their city when Devil's first step foot upon this world. To aid in their own goals of expansion and conquest, each fiendish ruler has a court of devil's almost as great as themselves to do their bidding as they set their sights on ever expanding their own borders through military, magical and diplomatic might.

Our story see's us within the fourth oldest and greatest of the devil cities, Shadowshaw. Located on the northern most range of the Dragon's Teeth where the Emerald-Sea meets the frozen wasteland of the Expanse this city is ruled by Devil-Lord Morelion. A fiend whose appearance and arrogance offers some hint to the origins of the devil race, bearing a striking resemblance to the Celestial Angels that dwell at the heights of the world in more temperate climes. A towering humanoid of pale white skin and muscular build, his crimson and black armour framed by midnight black wings suggest a 'man' of martial and physical might but the deep crimson eyes that stare out at the world also suggest deep intellect and cunning. The kind of intellect and cunning that may see his and his subjects fortunes grow great in the years to come as plots seeded long ago begin to come to fruition.

Now our fiendish sire sits upon his obsidian throne, his claw like finger tips tapping out a four beat rhythm upon the arm rest, sending sparks from the contact of steel hard nails and hard wearing stone he awaits the arrival of his court; his most able if not loyal followers, to arrive so they may yet begin the next stages of their own and his great plans...

- - - -

Build: Lithe? Athletic? Muscular? So on and so forth.

Miscellaneous Appearance Notes: Anything that doesnt fit into the above category.

Personality: What are they like? Looking for atleast 1 decent (4-5 sentence) paragraph for this.
Specialty: Physical Combat? Magic? Diplomacy/Charismatic?
Dominating Trait/Sin: Any of the 7 Deadly work, or you may have something different like Loyalty / Zealotry, anything you can find of really.

Background: What brought them first into Morelion's employment / his court? What did they do before hand? What major events have their been in their long fiendish lives. Looking for 2-3 decent sized paragraphs again for this, if you need help then feel free to send me a pm.

Hope you all look forward to this as much as im looking forward to see where the story takes us. :)

Below is what Morelion looks like:

Lexus Dominiel


Name: Lexus Dominiel
Nicknames / Titles / Alias's: High Inquisitor
Age: 777
Gender: Male

Height: 6'6"
Weight: 30 lbs
Build: A skeleton.
Appearance:
Lexus Dominiel has the form of a skeleton dressed in holy raiment, whether it be crusader-like armor, inquisitorial robes, or vestments befitting a high priest. In all iterations, he is heavily bejeweled, with the jewels even forming parts of important facial features such as the eyes, nose, teeth and beard:


Personality:
Lexus Dominiel has completely embraced the idea that devils came from angels and pompously sees himself as some sort of equal but opposite counterpart to those celestial, divine messengers. He is deeply philosophical and manipulative, driving lesser minds mad with pedantry, sophistry and circular logic. Lexus takes great joy in corrupting the pious with arrogance, ignorance, desperation, and power. Fanatically loyal to Morelion, Lexus is a pedagogue and expects the same devotion from his underlings and will not tolerate insubordination of any kind.

Specialty: Diplomacy, subterfuge, and magic. Lexus has the ability to corrupt the most powerful forces for good either into oppressive, close-minded regimes, or disorganized masses of hate and violence. He specializes in preying on the universal weakness of all sentient minds: the inability to self-criticize, and seeks out those in high positions, often acting as an echo chamber to amplify their irrational fears and biases. For this reason, he has has mastered speech, religious philosophy, as well as fire magic for combat, light magic for disguises, and even holy magic.
Dominating Trait/Sin: Fanaticism

Background:
Lexus Dominiel claims to be responsible for several devastating racial and religious crusades that had flared up in Shal'var's history, though he has little proof of this other than the mass of holy relics and religious artifacts that he has managed to hoard in his castle. Though capable enough at leading his own forces, he has sought time and time again for something to believe in, and has offered his fealty to several great devil lords in the past, only to eventually leave their employ, either by escape or by exile. Lexus has a history of not getting along with other devils due to his arrogant, pompous nature, and his tendency to use holy magic, which most devils see as an inexcusable threat. But it is this use of holy magic which has allowed him to maintain his territory, despite having antagonized many of his neighbors.

One day he slipped into Morelion's domain in the guise of a simple undead magician and served in his army. One day, out of the blue, he revealed himself to Morelion and swore fealty. Something about the way Morelion carried himself and led his forces sparked a fervent, undying loyalty in Lexus, who has served as Morelion's general and adviser since.

Moggoroth




Name: Moggoroth Morralis
Nicknames/Titles/Alias': Edeul Morralis/Horseman/The Living Sin
Age: 800
Gender: Male (can change genders when tempting or toying with mortals)
Height: 6'
Weight:210
Build: Muscular
Appearance: Moggoroth keeps the appearance of a dark elf most of the time with two distinct rings on his right hand with two ancient symbols on them. The ring he has on his index finger bears the symbol of horseman, and the one on his ring finger bears the symbol of sin. He keeps his elven form all the time unless he is in battle or tormenting the mind of a mortal. It is said that he was the one that current pictures of devils and demons are based off of.


Personality: Moggoroth denies that devils were once angels. He argues he has memories of when he was mortal, but doesn't have any concrete proof that says its true. He states that all devils are complete opposites of the celestial race, and that they had to have been born into this world by devils or created once a soul is too heavily corrupted to be pardoned of the sins they have committed. Moggoroth is highly intelligent, philosopher, manipulative, cunning, and can spin lies that have caused wars not just in the mortal realm but amongst his own kind. When confronted by hostility Moggoroth is able to turn it towards another person or devil with his cunning and serpent like tongue..

Specialty: Magic, Subterfuge, Mendacious, and Diplomacy/Politics. Moggoroth has the ability to bring forth calamity in the form of war, pestilence, famine, and death to the world. Let it be by spinning lies or manipulating high authority figures to cause most of the damage for him. Moggoroth has the ability to enter a persons mind and control them by the desires for the cardinal sins or by spinning a web of lies that's near impossible to see through. He makes it his goal to seek out high authority figures or holy men, and cause them to fall from grace and spin webs a deceit amongst their followers. Moggoroth has learned over the years many magic spells and incantations, but mostly specialized in fire, shadow manipulation, and lightning. Due to his age and how long he spends in his study. He has many more powers in the magical arts.
Dominating Trait/Sin: Wrath/Vindictive

Background: Moggoroth has been the cause of multiple wars and massacres in both mortal and devil realms. Every time he is confronted about causing one amongst devils. He bends the truth so well that it causes conflict among other houses, and removes all the tension focused on his house. After the first war broke out among his house and the devil house of Gramour. Moggoroth spent a large amount of time experimenting on his most loyal subjects to create the ultimate soldiers. Then 10 devils with a trait given by the sin they specialized in. These 10 soldiers became known as the 10 commandments and Moggoroths Generals. He spends most of his days in his castle's study trying new magic formulas, and experimenting on all the races of the world to create stronger soldiers in not only his army but Devil Lord Morelion's army as well.

It was many years ago that Moggoroth started following Morelion. He was drawn to the power and the way he saw the world around him. He has been the most loyal General and oldest adviser in his court. Moggoroth has proven to Morelion and his advisers time and time again that he is more than capable at any task sent his way, and executing his lords will as wished before given an order.
