~ The Horseman Four ~


Their weapons, forged with the ever burning embers of War,
Their steeds, called by the endless wails of Death,
Their shields, made to deflect the disfiguring plagues of Pestilence,
Their armor, made to encase their bodies from the endless hunger of Famine,
This is the story of the Horseman Four,
A tearful tail of hate, rage, and gore



It is the year 2012, the dyear said to bring forth the end days, the end of the world, the Apocalypse. The year begins slowly, creeping forward with no end, some people are filled with fear, some cynical and bitter simply want it to end so that the superstitions are put to rest, others, and some simply live their lives, not giving the supposed prophesy a thought. It is on this night however, January 13th of Friday, that shall decide the fate of all mankind. It is on this night that four young men shall be picked, of ripe age in body and mind to be chosen as the four harbingers of the End, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and with them so to shall their Maidens of Salvation be chosen. These Maidens, destined to find one of the Horsemen are charged with the task of preventing the Apocalypse, though any means necessary. Though the power to end all has been placed in the hands of these Horsemen Four, it is theirs to use. Will these four young men chose to bring salvation or destruction? The decision is theirs to make.

Pestilence - The first of the four, the Horseman of Pestilence commands the power of disease and plague upon his white steed, capable of crippling the most capable and healthy man to nothing more the a wheezing husk of warts. Armed with a bow and arrows, Pestilence is capable of wiping out armies with his mastery of the darkest of plagues and his sniper-like precision.

War - The second of the Horseman, War is given domination over conflict, capable of bringing mens blood to a boil with little more then his presence, War is capable of making best friends kill each other, and entire nations rip themselves apart with blood lust whilst upon his fiery red steed. Wielding his huge two handed blade, War is considered the most physically empowered of the four, capable of splitting men in half with a single sweep of his blade.

Famine - The third in the lineup, Famine is given the gift of rot, making him able to spoil foods and drain the nutrients away from people themselves, stealing their life force until they have nothing but bones and skin, weakening them beyond all human comprehension whilst upon his steed, black as the darkest night. Wielding little else then a scale used to steal the life from men and woman alike, Famine is the least physically imposing of the four and instead will weaken his opponents to nothing more the a shivering mass of bones.

Death - The last of the Four Horsemen, Death is often the most feared of the four due to his absolute command over the power of death, capable of ending a man with little else then a thought. Unlike the other three Horsemen, Death wields no weapon, instead he is shadowed presence of Hades, whom act on Death's behalf as his guardian protecting him and slaying his enemies while Death sits silently on his pale horse, ending all life that he so choses.

~ Rules ~


- First things first, no godmoding, no power playing, no Mary or Gary Sues, and all the other usuals, I should assume if you're joining this RP you know all the things I'm referring to, I'm not havin' none o' dat crap.

- This is a Literate role play, meaning I would like three paragraphs minimum, they don't have to be freaking monsters, just three paragraphs, and yes, I do understand, writers block happens, I can live with that, but if you post dinky little posts every time, we will have a problem.

- Maidens will chose which Horsemen they will pair up with, if there is an issue or argument of some kind, make me aware so I can help you ladies figure it out.

- If there is any sort of issue, bring it to my attention so I can determine who is at fault, I've seen RPs that ended because of a conflict, and I don't want that to happen to this one.

- I like characters that don't necessarily fit their role, this doesn't mean I want some puny wimp to play the Horseman of War, but at the dame time I don't want the steryotypical douche on steroids, mix it up please, they don't have to be opposites of what they represent, but nor do they have to follow the stereotype.

- I swear on my life, if I get more then one person who's parents were killed or are orphans, or anything like that I will beat you with your own pancreas, I am tired of seeing Rps with ten kids without parents, yes it happens, but it's not an everyday freaking occurrence, I like imperfect characters, not mentally unstable crybabies.

- Okay, this RP is meant to contain equal parts conflict, equal parts relationships, this does not mean I want people ripping heads of and then cuddling with their Maidens, and no, not all of the Horsemen will be romantic with their Maidens, they can be if they so chose and they can not if they don't want to.

- Not all of the Horseman will chose Salvation, and not all with chose Destruction, thats the way it is, cause this would be a boring RP if they all went 'Whelp, we don't wanna kill everyone, lets go have a picnic!' No. I like conflict, and yes, the Horsemen will fight, and yes it is possible for them to die, though they wont because that would defeat the point of the rp. Same with the Maidens, especially the Maidens in fact, because they're just humans and guess what. Humans die. However, they can only die if it holds relevance to the plot and they agree to it, and should one die, a new Maiden shall be selected in their place.

- My word is law, blahdy freakin blah, you get the point. I will address an issue once over the Rp if I find it mundane enough, if it escalates, the discussion will be held over PMs. I am open to criticism, but there are certain things that I wont budge on, if you don't agree with them you can leave it be and mutter angrily if you so chose, but if you pursue it, you will be banned and your character removed. I my post/reply shall be in red if this is the case.

- If I have any issues with anything in your profile such as age, personality, blah blah blah, I will reply to you concerning it, however, if you do your profile in a separate format or do not have the required subject I will IGNORE the PM and simply delete it.

-I can and probably will change some of the rules, so keep an eye out for any new highlights. PM me your profiles with the Subject 'Yay, I can actually take a hint!' so I know you were intelligent enough to figure this one out with a pirate at the bottom of your profile.

City- New York
Date - January 13th, 2012
Time - 9:23
Time of the Awakening - 11:00
Weather - Dark and Cloudy, though no sign of Rain


The night grows darker and darker, a deep sense of foreboding dwells within the citizens of New York, making the streets sparsely populated, but of all the people out and about, four young men all find the darkness comforting and relaxing, after all, what a great day for the world to end...
