You are free to jump in however you wish, but if you have an idea and want to arrange something, do speak with us about it. For basics, as a Demon Hunter, there is a call to arms in Barlour for the Demon Hunters. Demons are coming out of the underground and appearing on the surface, and Gilgamesh and Order of the Sword are allies during this call to arms, is the info you will be fed.

Just a note, between battles, you can add new techniques as you wish, so long as they fit your style and weapon levels.
@Sho Minazuki So what's the final word on Akoni then?
He looks good to me, techniques check out too. I'm not sure how strong Meteor is supposed to actually be, but it sounds like something you would have at level 2 style.
There's no limit on making demon hunters anyways, so you could still make that kind of demon hunter. The only difference is who they know, or how old they should be.
Oh yeah i wanted Beur and Mary to meet as well. Honestly that doesnt seem to be in the cards. Would there be a way to talk to him after the mission? Maybe have some Order Knights encounter him and bring him back to base.
He should still be fine after the events. City will be in chaos, but not completely destroyed or anything.
Your directives would probably be similar to the other Gilgamesh operatives, whose orders are to scour the underground for the seal.
Everything checks out to me. Backstory included. Since you're under the Demon Hunters Organization, currently you would be answering the call to arms in Barlour against the demon outbreak on the surface, or if you so choose, can go underground.
Order of the Sword - Nero
Underground
Underground
"Captain Nero!", the man draped in white like his colleagues raised a hand. Never did this man think he would be taking up a more intimate role with the Order of the Sword, he would never be as fine a captain as Credo was, he was more a fighter and lone wolf, and still operates like that. Nero stood tall, he didn't look much different, and the formal white didn't seem to suit him even after so long. Strapped on his back was his Red Queen and in a holster by his leg was the Blue Rose. His Devil Bringer was hidden in a long white glove.
"A-Ah right... Ms. Dahl has taken to the field sir, our scouts report there are small numbers of demons, including a few that aren't native to appearing here",
"I see... So the Seal as I'm told must be back there somewhere... I'll head out", just as he began to walk, a few of the knights stepped up.
"S-Sir! We would like to accompany you!", they were at attention, there were easily several here. There were probably a few more scouting out in field too.
"No need, just me is plenty. I'll take care of anything that reaches that seal, if something is already there I'll take that down too",
"But sir... We need to set up a route for reinforcements... And perimeters and-", his talking was halted as Nero raised his hand again to stop them.
"Fine, but don't get in my way. Stay behind me alright?",
"Sir!", and with that, the knights were off.
Underground Ruins
@Kafka Komedy
The area through the tunnels were mostly clear... According to some reports from the Order members, there was plenty of fighting. Some demon on demon combat took place, or the Gilgamesh guys, and some fighting was done by Order troops too out of self defense, or it was Maria. Neither mattered as Nero swept through any remaining demons on the way easily with just his Red Queen.
From behind Maria she heard a voice,
"I told you to wait, who knows what could be back there... Then again it wasn't you I was worried about", it was the others. Unlike him and Maria, they were all normal humans. Despite his informal and somewhat rough leadership he showed to care for others. He stepped up next to Maria who finally reached a strange cavern... Or rather, structure.
She finally found what looked like ruins, but not the kind you would expect from underground. It was a vast cavern with some ruins as this entrance, along the edges you could spot ruins just like this one, along with just natural openings. As Nero entered first, he saw someone, and some fairly familiar demons around her, along with ghosts. They stood atop a large pile of stones, Nero could feel his Devil Bringer tingling, there was something about that area in the center...
"Looks like we're a little late. Demons got here first...", he said. He wanted to charge in and attack, but he knew more than that now, or rather, he had a duty to those who served him now. A stealthy approach would be taken.
"I'll circle around the back... The rest of you secure that entrance. If need be, retreat without me, I'll be fine on my own", he said, and so he did. Using the ruins as cover he circled around, observing what was happening... The one in the center looked mostly human, but she was most certainly a demon with the way those Fausts were around her, plus those strange ghosts... What were they? If this was the seal, then would those ghosts be protectors of sorts? They didn't look completely friendly to that demon.
@Lugubrious Now that you've brought up Summoning, I'm tempted to make either an Umbra Witch or a completely unaffiliated occultist. What are your thoughts? Do we already have enough characters? Would the plot benefit from either an unaffiliated third party or a witch?
We could use a witch, but I'd not make one just yet. I'd like players to try and keep to one character for awhile before making a new one personally, but I think we can allow multiple characters, just maybe not more than two.
On Devil Triggers.
They do "unlock a character's true demonic form", yes. But it's not like Arrancar in Bleach, where it's a form change/stat boost.
In the DMC games, it's sort of a panic button. Healing tends to be far slower than what you lot seem to take it for. There is also a stat boost, but again, the statboost is marginal. The more tangible changes are towards moves; that is, one or two per weapon. For instance: Stinger, which would go through an enemy as opposed to knocking them back as usual. Sometimes, it also prevents knockback which can be pretty useful depending on situation.
That's only based on gameplay, and that's also only from the player's perspective.
The Devil Trigger acts as many different things, Dante has demonstrated that it can be both your true demon form, or your link to your weapon. In DMC4, Dante demonstrates it as being his true demon form. In DMC3 and DMC1, he demonstrates it as being his link to his weapons, where his form actually changes when he changes weapons in that game. In DMC1, he unlocks a unique one from using the sword Alastor.
For enemies, it's probably more accurately a ramping up power-up. When fighting enemies in Dante Must Die mode, they will Devil Trigger if they are not killed within a certain time limit, giving them higher power, lower rate of stagger, and sometimes additional abilities.
So, DT can be anything really, it's possible to have multiple even. Normally it's unleashing a latent power, or some kind of super form, it doesn't always have to be your true form. It is also only limited to demons, so keep that in mind too.
Next, demons taking human form is just a preferential thing. Most don't take a human form due to pride in their true form and as demons, or they are simply unable to take a human appearance. Powerful magical abilities can allow them to on the other hand. I would assume Lily and Blair are of the same brand of demons as Sparda, who takes a human appearance first before his demonic appearance. Shapeshifters like Trish can change appearance at will, she probably could take a non-human appearance but takes a human one out of preference.
