Mmkay, so, it seems Abbadons legions is dying a slow death, so I've recently begun seriously planning out what was going to be the RP after the Legions finished off.
Now, it's going to be completely different than what we're used to.
I mean like... COMPLETELY different. It's definitely going to force players to step outside their comfort zones, and completely adopt another persona when playing the game.
The reason for this, is because we're not going to be playing people fighting off hordes of darkness, we're going to be nudging those hordes forwards.
Basically, we're going to play the bad guys.
As with most, this will be set in Sanctuary, since it has very solid lore, and would easily work with what I'm planning.
Which, is that players will be using demons as their characters. All the fun of a human character, with the added freedom of being a hell spawned monstrosity. The character creation sheet will be much different, of course, but it will still allow for the same level, possibly even more customization than any previous RP's.
However, this doesn't mean we'll be faceless demons in a massive horde. Instead, I'm planning it so that the players will be taking the role of "Vanguard Demons", which would infiltrate human settlements, be sent on special tasks from their lord, assist in the taking of settlements, or even assault targets single handedly.
Also, this does not mean you must choose a character that is a part of an already existing breed of demon. Creating your own unique demon is encouraged. Basically, we won't be playing rank and file troops, we'll be playing as characters like Mephisto, Baal, or Xazax who are one of a kind.
Furthermore, you're not confined to the whole "Demon = red skin and horns" bullshit, creativity is COMPLETELY encouraged.
Also also, this RP will be using the tried and true descriptive approach that we've used for nearly all of the ones before. It offers more creativity and freedom than the statistically driven RPs.
So, this RP is still a REALLY far way off, but I thought it would be a good idea to see if anyone is even interested before I go on to plan the storyline.

Holy fuck, so I think I'm going to cut it off with the players we have now, we're good to go people :D. Couldn't imagine such a quick and massive response, thanks all :D.
HOWEVER, if you still want into the RP, then you are completely allowed the join up, you'll be added to a waiting list. People drop out of these things sometimes, and when they do, their places need to be filled. You will be worked into the story within several days of their departure, I can promise you this.

Well, you could play as a demon that looked undead, like some kinda bone devil or some shit. But we'd still be restricted to actually being from hell. Glad to have you aboard :D.
And Seth, you have no fucking idea how happy I am you've joined up. When I was planning out the story and possible quests n' such, I immediately thought that you'd be suited for them, since you seem to be down with the more diplomatic RP's.
However, this isn't going to be as diplomatic as some of the other RP's, but there are going to be sections that aren't just murdering and killing, and are more complicated. One of the things I had planned was that in certain parts, we'd have to take the guise of humans, infiltrate towns, and start collecting information/sabotaging/shit ruining/murdering.
... Anywho, I'm letting my anticipation murder any surprises that I had in store, must refrain...
edit: Lol, Path I've never seen you around here before. Welcome to the forums mate (even if my welcome is a couple months late), glad to have you aboard with the RP.

Glad to see you're in mate, and welcome back to the forums :D.
I may take you up on that offer, I've already bounced some ideas off Azriel and could use some more input :D.
... Ask him about the character sheet ^^.

Thanks m8. I've only been active recently but it seems like ages reading these forums, so I made a profile to join in on the blabblin'.
Anything you need bro.
-Oh and maybe the vanguard demons could be making way/preparing for the upcoming unleashing of hell? Sleeper agents somewhat too. The closer the time nears, more people 'awake' and realize that that they are really demons and have to assist in humanity's downfall? The possible reason for not just mass slaughtering everyone.

"So you have come here for information? I have some for you..."
Anywho, character sheet has been finished for a while, and the story is now planned out.
Will be waiting till about next Friday before posting the OOC and character creation threads, to give people some more time to check this out, and formulate ideas for their characters.

Well, I guess so. Though, he would have to have some reason for fighting against Heaven, just make sure his motivations and loyalties are in the right place, and I'm sure it'll jive with the RP.

Anyway, this looks really cool. It lets you have a character with a demonic mindset. I'm in.
And can I play as an undead guy? Pwetty, pwetty please?

Hell, we might be able to get Stormy in on this, she was big on the RPs.
I hate the way you cling to ignorance and pass it off as innocence
