The Hero has betrayed us

Feon looked at the others then gave a sigh as she rubbed her fingers on the bridge of her nose in frustration. This was starting to get out of hand, she would have to pull out Remus if she wanted any of them to shut up and listen to her at all. "Your all right, you can't trust me. What you want is results. Oh but don't take it from me." Feon said with a cynical smile on her face before her head flung back. She went silent for a good minute before finally pulling her head forward again.

Once she faced them again black smoke seemed to be rising from her eyes. The iris was glowing green among a black background. These weren't her eyes, but the eyes of the Demon Lord Remus. "You should be taking my word more than that bitches." Feon said now with the voice that couldn't possibly be hers. But that of the Demon Lord. It was clear that Feon and Remus didn't get along thus her reluctance to allow Remus to speak at all or better yet just let him take over her body.

"Me and the bitch have a plan. And this statue behind us is part of that plan. Turns out this town was originally built by cultists that worshiped this thing. Remus said point a thumb at the statue he was sitting infront of. "This statue as it turns out, is a sort of stepping stone. If you sacrifice a soul to it, it will allow you to easily learn magic without having to study it for years." Remus said before turning to the statue and getting up. Feon had a much manlier stance now quite unbecoming of a lady.

"Call it a short cut. Thankfully for all of you, the soul doesn't have to be humanoid. So it should be easy. Just kill something in front of the statue."

Remus looked towards the demons in the area, surely they would recognize him from the eyes. Of course Remus sure did recognize them, even recognized Asiroth in his disguise. "Kolonis! You must know a bit about this kind of magic right?" Remus added shouting out to her with a smirk.

Was gonna wait for ash... but I'm impatient

The Hero has betrayed us

@Cuccoruler@ArenaSnow

My character history has been added, was in a hurry so I might be missing something.

@Lightning

Awesome I say accepted!

The Hero has betrayed us

If there is such a player surplus, there could be two concurrent roleplays either in the same universe/context/broad theme with the same management, assuming Cucco wanted to do two roleplays at once. Possibly two quests that have a close connection.

@ArenaSnow

I'm not tottaly willing to run a second one. We do have alot but right now I think this is all I can handle. Though it's good to see that a good few of you are keeping up.

The Hero has betrayed us

Name: Alionna Silentread

Age: 28

Gender: Female

Race: Elven

Personality: Alionna is a kind and forgiving soul, she will put others needs before her, to a fault. Being in consent pain from a curse that could not be cured she can be found meditating to keep the pain from consuming her thoughts. The pain has also made her more compassionate towards others and she treats the curse as a trial to keep her humble.

Alignment: Lawful Good

Class: Priestess of Sarenrae

Equipment/powers:

Healing Word-through her connection with Sarenrae, Ali is able to cast a healing word and channel divine energy to reverse wounds. If she is fast enough she can even heal the most fatal of wounds.

Purify- Ali can attempted to cure a magical effect like a curse or spell that inflects pain over time. She can also attempt to cure an illness that is not magical.

Power Word: Shield- Ali can speak a word and cast a barrier of divine light to shield her allies from anything that would do damage. However, if the blow is to great the barrier will break, hopefully saving her ally from death.

Guidance-Ali can channel divine energy through an ally and empower them for a minute, the energy will cause her allies attacks to become more powerful. She must have physical contact with her ally to cast this spell.

Sacred Flame-Ali is filled with the righteous light of Serenae and a flame like radiance descends on her target burning her victim with divine fire.

Prayer of Healing- Ali begins to pray to Sarenrae channeling her divine energy, while praying six of her allies are touched by the divine light, healing their wounds. This is a last resort prayer that leaves her very vulnerable, also very draining and could take her out of a fight.

History:
Alionna Silentread's home, like a lot of homes were burned down by the horrible Demon Lord. Her people, the ones that survived, joined a nomadic group of elves. As Alionna grew so did her devotion to her goddess Sarenae and though her people were going through dark times she looked to the goddess for guidance. Ali became a priestess of the goddess and Sarenae seemed to bless the young elf as she grew powerful in the ways of the divine.

However, during her training with the other priestess her group was attack by a single powerful demon. The priestess of Sarenae fought the demon but she proved to be too strong and one by one slayed Alionna's sisters. The young priestess was the only one left, however, not done the nefarious demon marked the elven girl with her hellish flames. The burns covered her abdomen, upper arms, and the left side her lower back. The Demon laughed at the girls pain and with a final mark she mockingly caressed Ali's left cheek, cutting deep into her flesh with her long claw like finger. As the nail dragged along her cheek the flames cauterized the wound leaving a gruesome scare that only a demon could give.

A decade had past from her encounter with the demon that toyed with her, testing her faith in the Dawn Flower. She had grown strong even with the ever creeping pain that the demon's mark had left. With the help of other priest, even of different deities, she has soften the curses effect so she could live with the pain and not give into insanity. Even still she must contently meditate to keep the pain in check, else she could lose herself in the torment.

(WIP: I left some parts vague to get permission to use other characters in Alionna's histories. Plus I wanted to ask if she could've been part of the campaign to the demon lord, not necessarily there when the final blow was struck but just there kinda.)

@Lightning

Yes she can be part of the campaign to defeat the demon lord before the hero betrayed the world

Um, hello! This looks pretty cool!

Is there any space left?

@Vulkan

Sorry but as of now, I think we have more than enough people

The Hero has betrayed us

Feon smirked as questions were asked about if she could really speak to the demon lord or not. She turned her attention to Leila again as she seemed to panic at the thought of Feon being a demon. "I expected a bit of trouble like this. Well I can tell you for certain I don't serve Rem. If anything he follows me around because I'm the only one who will listen." Feon said before taking a seat onto a bench that leaned up against the statue in the middle of town. It was one of those weird abstract statues that looked like floating water. Feon sat taking up the whole bench as if to assert herself almost.

"I'll admit being secluded from the world in a temple for a few years has made me very unaware of the events that have transpired. I heard there were some demons around, and then that the demon lord was killed by the Hero Sven. I also heard that the Hero is now the Tyrant Sven." Feon said stating what she knew of what was going on.

"Although I can certainly tell which of you are demons, I mean, I'm a monk." Feon said looking directly at Jason Mythious. She wasn't going to say anything about it. Of course it wasn't just her that knew this.

"Hey! Arrow man! Could you please go help the kid?" Feon said shouting over to Garen whom while she didn't recognize him Remus did. Feon of course was referring to the girl who was running from the zombies who weren't even chasing her. Though in truth, if any normal person had seen this sight they would have been running too.

"So onto the reason we are here. There is a way to kill the Tyrant. But it has to be done before he can gain any more dark powers. Currently the majority of his powers are that of light. The way to kill him however, is to use the darkness, and that which is not in either category of light or dark. This could be a number of things, all I know about that magic though, is that it is very strange." Feon stated.

The Hero has betrayed us

Oh right, so some of you seem to believe that the undead are all going somewhere for some massive attack. They are not. They are shambling around as if they were still human doing their daily routines.

The Hero has betrayed us

Arrrrgggg!!! I can't hold it back!

@Lord Zee Have these people failed their city? (Reference)

The Hero has betrayed us

Garen "The Arrow" Trask

Age: 36

Gender: Male

Race: Elven

Personality: More of a bitter individual due to the recent times. With the world in certain peril, he's not very optimistic about the future anymore. At times, he can be nice but mostly cold.

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Class: Ranger

Equipment/powers: Being the good ranger that he is, he couldn't go anywhere without his trusty bow and other weapons hes picked up on his adventures. It's in his nature to be equipped for survival.
He carries;
Etched Mahogany Bow
Steel arrows in a leather quiver
Two enchanted short swords - one blessed by light and the other touched by darkness. Both deal a respectable amount of damage to beings on the opposite side.
One vial of poison

History: His parents always told him that their home burned down when the Demon Lord came. He and his people were forced to wander in a nomadic fashion for a time, living off the land and keeping each other safe. Garen grew up with the notion that if he made himself the best that he could be, he would be able to find his people a place they could call home again. His father and uncle taught him the ways of the wild, and it took him years of practice to be able to use a bow as an extension of himself. To be able to feel the pull of the string and release with the accuracy of the ancients was a gift passed down generation to generation. His people had their share of hard times, from the occasion demon to humans who wouldn't leave them alone, but they made the best of what they could.

Then one day things changed, and Garen met Sven. His first impressions of the hero were much different then when they would part ways. Here he saw a boy ready to take on the Demon King and bring peace back to the land. It would take time, and a great amount of effort but Garen saw hope for a future free of tyranny and he pledged himself to Heavensward. In the beginning, things were good and he even taught Sven the ways of his people. He did not see Sven as a hero, but as a good friend, something that was even more important to him. Time and time again, Sven and his allies brought down demons, monsters and those who were corrupted and all the while Garen helped to the best of his abilities. He was offered many items of power but only took the two swords that he wields now. He didn't want to look flashy, that was never him and the swords suited his personality. After all the time on the road, Garen began to see a change in Sven. It was subtle, now that he thought about it, Sven's cocky attitude became bigger then himself, playing with his foes before killing them and fading away from the promises in the beginning. Then the fateful day that shattered Garen's hope for a better future finally came.

He was wounded to say the least, and some of his clothes were blackened from soot and fire when he watched with great pride, as Sven killed the Demon King. Finally, after all this time, he could find a home for his people without fear of tyranny. To his horror, Sven sat on the throne and an malicious smile crossed his lips. Garen tried to dissuade him from his course of action, pleaded with him to do the right thing, but the Sven he knew was gone. His 'friend' turned into an even bigger threat then that which he had just killed. Sven asked him in return if he would join him in the new world but Garen stood tall and boldly exclaimed, "No."

Sven smiled, and charged him, blade drawn poised to strike him down. But Garen had anticipated him to attack, and just like that the ranger was gone. It was a fancy bit of magic, he had picked it up in a dungeon in his early days with Sven, never really finding a use for it until now. It allowed the user to teleport to a specific location just once, and Garen had chosen to return to the last place his people had been at. It didn't phase him to see the place empty, they were nomads and probably would be forever now. He fell to his knees realizing that the world was about to become a whole lot worse, for now there was little hope for a better future. Only the certainty of war.

@Lord Zee

Oh my, I had noticed you lurking around but wasn't sure if you were gonna join. Guess you are! This could certainly make things interesting! I say accepted

The Hero has betrayed us

I specifically said this about it.

"He wears a necklace that allows him to take human form though this does not hide his demonic aura from holy figures trained to sense it."

So technically no, you would have to be a "holy figure" such as a priest, paladin, cleric, or something along those line. I didn't make any other real specifications on it and that is my fault. But I am willing to be fair and say, you would be able to sense something about him but would not be able to identify it.

That is if you and the GM are ok with that. GM's decision in the end though.

@BKburke

"Holy Figure" goes in more than one way actually. Due to his character being what she is, I imagine that being an evil holy figure like her allows her to sense that he is a demon. But I would hope that she would be smart enough to not mention that he is a demon to the public
