The idea I'm approaching here follows a struggling[/i] [B]ANGEL[/B] [i]who has left his past behind seeking redemption and a purpose in the nights of Los Angeles. As this is primarily based on the 1999 television series following the character of the same name, I'd like to also include characters and ideas from[/i] [B]LUCIFER[/B] [i]which happens to also be set in Los Angeles. My plans for the overarching story are hinged on the character of Rachel Roth, or as she's more commonly referred,[/i] [B]RAVEN[/B][i]. My story starts with the impending arrival of Raven's 18th birthday, the birthday when she's to be wed to Brother Blood. Their union was prophesized to open the way for Raven's father,[/i] [B]TRIGON[/B] [i]to enter into the world. Learning of this plot, Raven flees her home and will eventually come across Angel who reluctantly takes the girl under his protection. Outside of the overarching plot dealing with Trigon's return to Earth, my stories will focus on the more supernatural side of comics, drawing characters and creatures from Marvel, DC and of course the Buffyverse.[/i][/indent][/indent] Forever Knight Sons of Midnight True Blood Blood Ties The Vampire Diaries Twilight Interview with the Vampire Being Human [COLOR=BLACK][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]† P O S T C A T A L O G U E & S Y N O P S E S:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT][b][sub]† C H A P T E R O N E[/sub][/b][B][color=SILVER][sub][sup][h1]BLOOD TIES[/h1][/sup][/sub][/color][/b] [quote][i]After receiving an ominous prophecy regarding Hell on Earth, a reluctant Angel is forced to search the city of Los Angeles for a young girl by the name of Rachel Roth.

Ghosts are thus bodiless oversouls; poltergeists, bodiless undersouls; vampires bodies without undersouls (thirsting for emotions); and zombies, bodies without oversouls. Revenants, like Gwen, are unique in that they possess both oversouls and undersouls. Souls can also "infect" the living, which accounts for the possessed, werewolves and the like.
