Enjoy Lashriel. Another problem to add to Loom's lengthy list.

Essence of the World: Cadence [Always Open]

The Temptress

Loom- Afternoon

Ian, Lashriel

Many had come, it was certainly a start. The oppressed flocked to her arms. The downtrodden, the abused, those tired of serving the humans. Those who suffered from the council’s disease. She would heal them. Metatron stirred beside her. The hulking Seraphim had been at her side since she had freed him from a prison four years ago. The work of one of the Academy’s mages had put her there almost a century ago. Her beautiful voice had called Metatron from the depths of his depravity and self pity to be something worth while. She had raised him from those depths and then raised him to his heights by helping him to reclaim his lost selves. Metatron had always been a fighter, a follower of those great few who had gained his respect and now he followed her.

Lashriel.

Finally she unfolded her arms and the crowd silenced itself. “Brothers and sisters. Thank you for joining me today.” Her voice was the definition of beauty as her english was curved around a tongue that had been raised speaking russian. Even though she had reclaimed all her past lives and really did not have the accent should wish it; she kept it as a reminder of how she had gotten here.

“I know everyone of you came here today wondering if I am the genuine article. I would be skeptical myself in your place.” She smiled meeting their eyes like a loving mother to her children. “I know that all of you are in pain, and that it is not your doing. It those who you served, who you bend to, who you are oppressed by.”

There were murmurs of agreement but they quieted down again soon enough. “I promised you that I would help and that is exactly what I will do for everyone of you. I shall help you.”

Many looked at each other skeptically.

“The council ruined life for all of us. Save the privileged few.” She gestured to all of them “The rest have been left to suffer.” She narrowed her eyes “As though it were not bad enough that Judas should enslave and conquer as he did, we were left to fend for ourselves and help the pathetic humans. Separated forever from Heaven. And yet the humans have their home and the demons still frolick, feed and take their base pleasures in their Hell and now on the surface?!. What is left for us?!”

There was a grumble of assent at the validity of the words.

“It is time to take what is ours and I can give each of you the power to do that. I can cleanse the dark angels….and I can help you to reclaim your memories...Without the risk.”

A chorus of whispers rippled through the crowd. Was she serious?

“Not all of you will become Seraphims. But a few will. The rest of you will remember at the least five of your past lives, which will be much more than the rest of the traitor angels remember. It is time to take back what is ours!” She looked out at them with fire in her eyes
“Who’s with me?”

There was silence for a moment...

...Before the empty warehouse erupted in cheers

She smirked before whispering in russian to Metatron

“Tell Raziel that we have begun, and then summon Purah back from Moscow. We will need her help.”

Ian sat perched in the rafters.

This was the definition of bad and far more progressed than The Academy had ever expected. Unfortunately she was not doing anything illegal and she had not suggested How she was planning on carry things out. So there was very little for the musician to do other than observe. Drawing on his Veil Ian slipped back into the shadows. Running along the rafters he slipped out from underneath the eaves of the warehouse.

Time to find some back up. This is getting out of hand.

@BlackPanther thats a good quewtion. I don't think there is ano age limit for angels but keep in mind anything over 200 years means the character is a refugee from heaven. And lived through Judas rule

Essence of the World: Cadence [Always Open]

@BlackPanther no problems. I should be here most of the day so feel free to ask away

Essence of the World: Cadence [Always Open]

@BlackPanther I think that's probably going to be the best approach to a weather Angel (sorry I know I'm not Wind ^^') and what I might suggest if you are going for a full fledged weather Angel is to answer a couple questions 1) why are they moving to Loom? We're they displaced ? What happened to make such a powerful being move? 2) do the deaths really not effect them or are they just really good at avoiding c9nfronting the emotion? Since the character probably won't be growing in power over the course of the RP how are you planning on showing growth or deterioration? Maybe the character comes to better terms with their position or maybe the emotional control deteriorates over the course of the RP and there comes a moment when he has to reassess how he is going to handle the deaths. It's very possible Loom could experience mass casualties this season (again) so that's something to think about. Sorry I know you've been hit by walls of text twice so I'm going to cut myself off here.

@BlackPantherI wish you the best of luck. Luckily its not made it to the 100 mark yet

Essence of the World: Cadence [Always Open]

@BlackPantherYou may need to consult Wind on how your character ends up there. As for the emotional nature of the character. That is really up to you truth be told.

Also to the other collab people. Whoever is up is up.

Essence of the World: Cadence [Always Open]

@BlackPantherThat could be interesting. A weather angel for the academy. Once upon a time they had a Guardian Angel. Sounds cool. Ask questions as they come I'll do my best to help

@CaitsPM me your skype info if you wanna join us btw

Essence of the World: Cadence [Always Open]

@BlackPanther Wind has called it quits for the evening so you've got me for right now. We don't actually have a post requirement. The expectation is something along the lines of: Well formulated and expansive. For the most part we like to use Collaborations, gdocs, etc so any of the bigger posts you see with lots of character names on them are usually that. The IC is a pretty good indicator of the post size but again I don't think we've ever turned someone down because of something like that. Essence was my first jump into the advanced section and I turned out mostly okay *eye twitch* so there is no safer place to give it a try.


Okay on the topic of Weather Angels we've never seen one of them successfully pulled off. Which is not to say that you can't give it a go. essence-of-the-world.weebly.com/types-.. This is the little I can provide you personally about them but they tend to be stupendously powerful. The real problem is that they are general muted emotionally and they are land locked. Wind can probably help a little more since the Angels are her babies. And just speculatively: I don't see why they would have to be limited to one form of nature but no doubt the more you add to them the more you ratchet up the characters power. (Not that we mind that sort of thing too much, our PC list includes: a god, an ark angle, a demi god and an semi immortal necromancer.)

As for the Academy generally no but with the advent of this season the restrictions on admittance have been relaxed a bit. Since Angels cant wield fragments there really isn't a reason for them to be enrolled but if you want to go that route I'm sure we could make it work. Especially given that the Academy has begun to diversify.

@CaitsSo I may have a decent means of getting you right into things when your all done with the CS
