Fabula
(Story)

Our story begins in the Realm of Heaven, before the fall of Lucifer. Another Archangel, equal to that of Gabriel or Michael, existed. His name, Izaeus. Izaeus was Michael's assistant, and rivaled his power. Izaeus was close to both Michael and Gabriel, and was Lucifer's rival, although both highly respected one another. Izaeus was also somewhat proud of his special relationship with God. Life was good for everyone in heaven, living under God's rule. However, not everyone was satisfied with their leader.

Lucifer eventually became dissatisfied with the way that God was running the Realm, and began amassing followers and like-believers to take on Satan. Izaeus was conflicted on this issue. He consulted his two greatest friends, Micheal and Gabriel.

Micheal, whom despised Satan for his actions, told Izaeus that he should stand with God if a final confrontation occurred. He was told to cast down the heretics and keep Heaven pure of their sins and ilk.

Gabriel, being a more compassionate man, told Izaeus that he should stand where he wished. Gabriel also pitied Lucifer, and told Izaeus that if he were to follow Lucifer, that he should watch over him. Gabriel also promised Izaeus would be watched over as well.

Izaeus, having listened to advice from both sources, eventually came to a decision, after speaking to Lucifer himself. He chose to side with his rival. And he soon came to regret his decision.

When Lucifer was cast down form heaven with his minions, Izaeus was brought before god. Izaeus was stripped of his title, and his memory was stripped from all angels, other than Archangels and Saints. His name was removed from all records, and he was cast down to the 9th circle of hell with Lucifer.

Hell, as it did to all of the fallen angels, changed Izaeus and Lucifer. Izaeus and Lucifer argued constantly over how to head the demons. Where Izaeus favored more of a strict rule over all of the Demon Lords and the lower-ranks, Lucifer said that for Hell to grow in strength, they should be left alone to induce the whole "Survival of the fittest" element.

Eventually, Lucifer wanted to use more forceful measures to gain the upper hand against Izaeus. They fought in a duel, and it lasted for over 6 hours. Nearing the end, it seemed Izaeus would emerge the victor, but Lucifer, through dark forces unknown, opened a Void Portal which threw Izaeus into the Abyss. The followers of Izaeus were dispersed throughout the 9 Circles, and those who immediately resisted were killed outright. The Abyss was a whole separate Realm through which almost no demon has ever returned.

Thousands of years pass.
Man has begun the use of gunpowder, seeing as how it has just been discovered, to give a good frame.

Izaeus, having done nothing but dream for the fast thousands of years, awoke to find himself in a field of grass with few flowers, on the 1st Circle. Believing that Gabriel had given him a second chance at Lucifer, who now called himself 'Satan, Overlord of Hell', Izaeus was filled with renewed vigor. Thanking Gabriel in his first and final prayer in thousands of years, Izaeus sought to do what he saw in an obscure dream just before awakening. He was to assemble an army of demons and Demon Lords to fight with him against Satan, and to take the Throne of the Overlord for himself.

The True Unknown One

Izaeus Edena
-Race:
Forgotten Fallen Angel
-Age:
Appears to be in his early to mid 30s.
-Biography:

--< See Story Section >--

-Personality:
Izaeus always had three personality flaws, Indecision, Pride, and a Quick Temper. However, being in hell, these flaws are more noticeable than when he was back in heaven.

He is also rusty with his Magical abilities after not using them for thousands of years, and at this point can only cast a few basic spells.
-Weapon:
The Abeo Vesica (AKA, The Changing Blade)
[Shown in the photo in Nightsever form. This is the most basic form, with no abilities.]
[Blaze Ripper Form]
(This form can be imbued with fire, which causes the smaller blades to rotate quickly around the main blade, like a chainsaw)

[Giant Darkness Form]
(This form's ability is it's Great Size and Weight ability. The blade itself is 7 feet long, with the handle being 2 feet. The blade weighs like a normal greatsword to the user, but crushes as if it were ridiculously heavy)

[Death God Form]
(The final form of The Abeo Vesica. It's true abilities are unknown, but it is said a great power is sealed within...)

Pyromancy and Pyro-summoning Abilities

-Other:
Izaeus does not like to talk of his past, and greatly regrets his decision to follow Lucifer, and will secretly pray for a very short time if he senses a great battle to come. He also likes pets.

Tairu Khime
-Name:
Damien Ethaelus
-Race:
Fallen Angel
-Age:
Appears 25
-Biography:
Damien was created among the first batch of angels as the Archangel of Guardianship. With this position he was given strength, a sense of duty, and the compassion required to guide those souls who needed it even if they were surrounded by darkness. With these gifts he led the branch of heaven that guided and protected man, the Guardian Angels. He liked his position very much after Lilith was cast out of the Garden of Eden. The job was easy since there was or at least he thought there was no danger in the garden. Damien was wrong about the danger as the serpent tricked Eve into disobeying God. Man was removed from the garden and the punishment that Damien received was simply more work. As man expanded so did his heavenly department. Eventually there were far more souls than God wished him to guide and soon only those who truly needed guidance were given it.

Damien liked to work very closely with man, it was the love for all that he was created with that caused this. One fateful day Lilith set upon a young boy that Damien was currently guarding. The battle between the two was fierce but Damien eventually drove her back. His victory came with a price however. She corrupted his heart and Damien learned how to form an attachment to a single being instead of all life. It took some time for this trait to manifest but eventually he found himself in love with another angel. She was unable to return his love of course and eventually he found himself lusting for her. It was in this time that Lucifer led his revolt. Caught between his love of one, who fought for Lucifer, and his love of many, those who had God’s favor, Damien did not fight and remained neutral.

At the end of the revolt Damien was hated by both sides. God took some mercy on Damien and only barred him from returning to Heaven but he could not find a home in Hell either. For a while he wandered the surface of earth continuing his duties as his corruption spread throughout his body. It slowly warped him to carry the characteristics of a siren. Damien found that he could no longer protect humans for whenever he came to feel an attachment to the one he was trying to protect some horrible event would occur and send their soul to Heaven putting them forever out of his reach. When he could no longer bear the pain of loss Damien forced his way into hell.

Even after a few hundred years he was still not welcome in Hell. Damien tried to force his way down to Lucifer but he was quickly overwhelmed and captured. As punishment for not fighting alongside them the one he had loved had him chained to a stone peak in the second circle and he was given a small lantern. The light from the lantern would call out to the helpless souls blowing around in the second circle and cause them to crash upon the rock and if their soul was weak enough Damien would devour them. Over time his loving lust for Castenia turned into a lust for her blood and he now awaits the day that he can either break the chains holding him back or someone sets loose his vengeance upon Hell.

-Personality:
Damien is a very big flirt, it’s simply part of his corruption. Naturally he is very loyal to those he protects and would never intentionally guide them wrong. Anger is not really something that he knows only a quiet hate. He likes to joke since it’s one of the only things that he could to entertain himself while sitting in solitude. He is also not particularly evil and doesn’t really view himself as fallen only afflicted.

-Abilities:
Moderate regeneration, he can regenerate all parts of his body in a matter of minutes but cutting of his wings first makes him venerable to death. Damien can also shape shift and take on any form he pleases. His spiritual signature and smell will remain the same throughout every form. Necromancy (Conjuring of the dead.) On earth he used this to forcibly guide souls to heaven now he can summon souls of the damned to fight for him. His voice has the same magical tone of the sirens and all who hear it are drawn to him against their own will.

-Appearance:
Damien

-Weapon:
Anima Ensis (Soul Sword)
The Anima Ensis is a sword that takes on new abilities and appearances based on the wielders soul. In a sense it truly is a window to the soul. In Damien's case it can take on two forms which reflects his conflicted soul.

Pure Form The Pure Form represents his angelic soul and is made from pure holy energy. This sword is the bane of all things evil and even hurts Damien when he wields it due to his corruption. It also can not harm a living human.

Dark Form This form represents Damien's corruption. The cord connecting the sword to the small blade can be extended and the sword absorbs part of its targets souls with every cut.

-Other:
Being quite old he knows of Izaeus from his days in Heaven but he does not know what happened to him in Hell.

-Name:
Nathan G. Morgan
-Race:
Human
-Age:
32
-Biography:
Nathan started out as any normal human would, he lived in a small isolated town in England, with his mother, father, 2 sisters, and his older brother. They were mainly a farming family, and grew corn and wheat for the townspeople and sold it in markets in neighboring towns. When he was around 13, Nathan was asked by his older brother to fetch the horse from the stable and bring it back to the house so they could tie it to the cart and sell their wares. Nathan went to the stable, only to find the horse was dead, torn to shreds. He ran back to the house, all the while crying for his brother, or his father to help. When he finally arrived at the house, he saw that something was wrong, his brother's favorite crossbow had been left, unattended next to the cart. This was very uncharacteristic of his brother, as he never went anywhere without his crossbow.

Nathan went to check inside the house, still in a panic. Inside the house, he saw his entire family laying on the floor, ripped apart, and something looming over them, apparently feeding on them. He ran outside, grabbed the crossbow and ran into the corn fields and waited, and waited. A few days later, after filling a bag full of corn and other supplies, he ran towards town, hoping to explain what happened, when he got to the town, he ran to the markets and went to find his father's friend, Liam Sharpe. When he found Liam, the man looked the boy over, saw that there was something wrong and told him to follow him back to his house. When they arrived at his house, Liam closed and locked the door, and ushered the boy into the living room and told him to explain what happened.

After a lengthy explanation, Liam stood, walked over to the closet that was almost hidden in the corner of the room, and opened the door. "I think you'll find that this was no chance encounter my dear boy." Liam stated as he pulled what appeared to be a crossbow, a bottle of holy water and a coat out of the closet. "Your father was no ordinary man, he was a demon hunter, trained in the holy arts and trained to banish the unholy back to Hell." Liam said he would be back in a few hours and to wait for him in the house. When Liam did return, he brought back a bag, which held the head of the creature which murdered Nathan's family in it, it's deep red eyes staring blankly out.

Liam explained to the young Nathan that he would train him to be a demon slayer, and that he would be able to avenge his family's death. For the next 10 years, Liam trained Nathan in the arts of slaying demons, and he became quite good at it, earning world renowned reputation by the age of 28. His rage was still insatiable though, and for every demon he killed, he wanted to kill 3 more, his family's death would never be avenged, unless he wiped all of them out, and he began his crusade to kill all demons. By the time he was 32, Nathan had close to 2000 demon kills. One night, he drew more than 25 demons in so he could kill them, but one of them, a mind controlling demon, read through his past, and changed its form, in Nathan's eyes, to that of his family members, though he knew it was not true, the mere sight was enough to distract him long enough so the demons could drag him to hell, he woke up in the middle of a grassy field, with all his demon slaying gear with him, and no one around for miles.

-Personality:
Nathan often hides his true feelings, never really getting close to anyone, and only betraying his stone-facedness with minor jokes, and pure rage. He is often seen as an evil person, simply because of his attitude towards life in general. Can also seem like he has a deathwish at times, and its not far from the truth. He also tends to be a very blunt, and brutally honest person, not caring enough for kindness.
-Abilities:
Nathan is a berserker, when he enters a fit of rage, he will keep going until either he or his enemies are dead, this also allows him to survive near fatal wounds, while still in combat. Once combat is over, however, he will need medical attention if his wounds are too severe.
-Weapon:
Clip loaded Pneumatic crossbow and hand pump. Pneumatic canister in the stock of the crossbow can hold around 3 clips worth of air, after that Nathan must use the hand pump. Also carries a Short sword for fighting in close range when the need arises.
-Appearance:
Nathan
-Other:
Has around 2000 demon kills. Carries a large satchel which holds around 20 clips of reusable reloadable crossbow clips and his hand pump. Each crossbow clip holds around 15 bolts, and bolts can be reused, takes around 2-3 bolts to kill a normal low rank demon.

-Name:
Diana Aquilina
-Race:
Human
-Age:
26
-Biography:
From an extremely young age Diana trained in the arts of demon slaying, being taught by monks along with many other orphans. The training each and every child went threw was anything but easy. Nearly everyday their small frail bodies were pushed to their limits and forced to endure extreme pain, both physiological and physical. Such harsh training was necessary if these children were to ever achieve becoming master slayers and not only that but pass the ultimate test.

The Ultimate Test was the name given to the last and final stage of demon slayer training where the slayer in training must consume a special type of unknown substance, from unknown origin, commonly known has a venom. The venom's effect is simple, once consumed it begins to change the human body allowing it to achieve strength, speed, among other things that were otherwise impossible for a human being. Very few actually survive this excruciatingly painful process, but those who do become full fledged demon slayers capably of acquiring abilities and skill beyond the normal humans ( In order to gain the same skill as that of the strongest demons it takes many years and more training, it isn't an instant thing. The only thing the venom basically does is break the limits of a human body).

When Diana thought herself ready she was quick to take the test. Not many expected for her to actually succeed due females having rarely passed before but she did, officially gaining the title of Demon Slayer by the time she was 19 years of age.

6 years passed and her life went on basically being the same thing over and over again. Any where demons appeared she was sure to show up and annihilate them. Everything went fine until one day she finally met her match, a demon with strength she had never fought against before. The battle was a long and bloody won but in the end she somehow managed to make the last blow. What happened after that though was something that had never occurred to her. As the demon took its last breath it opened a gate to Hell's first ring dragging her along with him. Weak and tired Diana was incapable of releasing its hold on her. Moments later she would awaken and no longer on Earth, but that was the least of her problems, becoming a demon herself was what had her worried. By some stroke of luck Izaeus found her and offered the chance to make the unforgivable, a blood pact with a demon. Knowing it was the only possible way of her ever returning home she reluctantly accepted.

Izaeus gave her instructions on how to perform the ritual and she followed them. Taking her knife she cut herself in the area of her body she deemed most important, a sign near the back of the left side of her neck, thus allowing her soul to leak from her body into his. Now Diana is left with no other option but to help him, only then will she be able to get her soul back and that's only if Izaeus will actually keep his promise.

-Personality:
Diana has two separate personalities, well one of them is simply as mask she wears to hide her true self, the one she never shows in front of demons. With her fellow humans she is social and easy to be with, some one you could easily trust due to her strong sense of loyalty. When someone befriends her she is very open, kind and compassionate. Some find it hard to believe with such a calm personality the fact she is capable of such a thing as demon slaying. Diana whenever face with a demon hides the softer parts of her persona bringing out the tougher ( somewhat negative ) ones, like anger and stubbornness. She is not one to give up easily and will sacrifice her life for the causes she believes in and fights for. She isn't ashamed to hide or mask her fears for to her it is an emotion necessary for survival.
-Abilities:
Her strength and speed is slightly better then that of the average human thus allowing her a better chance when against demons. Though she still has a long ways to go to actually get close to the capabilities of the strongest of demons. Diana is also able to heal certain wounds, normally minor ones.
-Weapon:
For a main weapon she has a sword named Gisarme but also carries with her various throwing knives and a set of bow and arrows ( in appearance )
-Appearance:
Diana
-Other:
The sign on her neck was caused by the venom when she took it.
She is also not very happy about her current situation.



LuckyMaiden

-Username:
Luckymaiden
-Name:
Sierra Maris
-Race:
Fallen Angel
-Biography:
Sierra was a moderately good person when she lived on earth, she went about her life in a simple and well mannered way. She never did anything particularly wrong, but she never did anything that great either. Her life was normal, and she was almost as normal, maybe above average in intelligence, but other then that she was nothing special. Things didn’t get interesting until she was in college, and she started to change, try things that she might not have tried before, done things, that maybe were not the best plan, but she wasn’t thinking about that, she thought she would have years to go back and rewrite what she had done, but she was wrong.
At the age of 20 she was pulled off the street while walking home from class, and among other things, was killed. When she awoke she was in heaven, and being told that she was a an angel, partially due to the way she was killed. Anyone who was murdered and was even relatively good was given the chance to be an angel, so she took it. It was that or being a drifting spirit among the clouds, even to her the job of being an angel sounded better and for quite a while it was.
She did as she was told, helping people on earth, and people who had just come to heaven. Things were alright, and for a while she was content, simply doing as she was told and helping people, it felt like a good thing to do with her life, but at the same time she wasn’t content with her life, or afterlife. It took her a while but she started to misbehave, to shirk her duties, to go against the world and the rules that she was given. For a while she was given warnings, but each warning only made her do more and more to work against them, until she was specifically making people do things that would send them to hell. That was the final straw.
With less then a wink she was cast down from heaven and down to hell, but hell was not quiet where she fit either, and she wandered through hell, learning along the way, her powers developing as she did, Through her journey’s she met Izaeus, who offered her the chance to be able to do what she wanted for him, but only if she helped him with his campaign, and she agreed, partially because the deal was hard to pass up, and it interested her, in more ways then one.

-Personality:

Sierra was a kind person with a good heart when she was an angel, she always did what she was told and rarely did anything to bother anyone, she stayed in the background where she was comfortable. Although she was a good person, she needed things to keep her interested and heaven offered none of that, and she started to change. She became an impatient and almost bitter person, snapping easily. Her anger grew and her temper shortened until she would fight anyone who came near her, something that eventually got her cast down to hell.
Once she was in hell though, she mellowed out a bit, she was still impatient and curt, but she wasn’t as angry, and she only fought when she was provoked and there was no other way out of the fight. She also become a trickster, loving to play jokes on people, either through actions or words, it became her way of fighting back against things she didn’t like, rather then outwardly going against people, and surprisingly it seemed to work better, and it was what ended up bringing her to Izaeus.


-Abilities:
Sierra’s powers lie in shadows, and using them to do her bidding, be it forming a weapon, or disguising something in darkness. She can move through shadows, and can see what they have seen on certain occasions. The shadows can be used to form illusions as well as blind and bind her enemies, at times that have been known to carry more power and abilities as well, but she had yet to access them.

Shadow Spells:
Black Arrow- Fires an arrow of shadow directly at the enemy, can also be used as a tracking arrow.
Shape Shift- Uses shadows to manipulate and change the casters appearance.
Suffering- Attaches a shadow to the enemy that slowly drains their power and energy.
-Appearance:
Sierra
-Weapon:
Lirian
Named for her younger sister from when she was a human, the girl was quite a bit younger, but her innocence and purity always resonated with Sierra, and she still holds her memory close to this day.

Scath
The name given to the blade by its maker, who forged the sword from material imbued with Shadow Magic itself, its power being granted to it from being made from the Shadow Magic. The blade was a 'gift' from the demon who made the sword from the time in which she trained and worked for him upon her arrival in hell, in order to keep herself protected.

-Other:
The tattoo she received as a human returned to her once she came to hell.




Xaimee


-Username:
Xaimee
-Name:
Valazeal (Occasionally allows people to call her Vala but only with permission.)
-Race:
Demon
-Biography:
Valazeal used to be a minor demon of no importance. Tormenting the souls of the departed and kowtowing to those in the ranks above her as a good demon should. She believed wholeheartedly in the right of Lucifer to rule over Hell and also believed that he cared about the demons under his command.
As the centuries passed, she saw more and more of her fellow demons slain in the skirmishes between the various factions of hell. It began to weigh on her. Why was this being allowed to happen? Surely if Satan cared about the demons he would stop them fighting, instead turning their sights on the living to damn them and collect their souls for eternal punishment. Instead, she watched as those closest to her were slain and her master grew more abusive of her as his power waned.
Eventually she took a stand, slaying her lord and devouring his essence. Power coursed through her veins, her anger filling her with the uncontrollable desire to topple all of the kings of Hell. Take their power from them, and destroying the uncaring fallen angel who controlled this realm.
She rose in power swiftly, devouring other demon's essences. As she rose to just below the kings of Hell, she devised a plan to aid her destruction of those above her. She began to spread summoning rituals to powerful demonologists, tricking them into summoning her before ripping their knowledge from their minds and consuming their soul, adding yet more power to her.
Finally, she challenged a king of Hell. She bested them and at the point she was about to strike them down, another king interfered. Although her power was great, she could not defeat two kings. Her power shattered, she fled to the furthest reaches of hell.
It was there, after years of brooding that she met Izaeus. Recognising someone who wished to destroy Satan as much as her, she formed an alliance of convenience with him. She had been burned before by her faith in Lucifer so could not bring herself to fully trust this fallen angel. What was to stop him becoming just like the Lord of Hell after he cast him through his throne?
Her power is growing although it has not returned to the amazing heights of before where only the kings themselves had any hope of standing before her. She wants so badly to best the kings herself, taking their power after torturing them for what they did to her. After that, she will let Izaeus take on Lucifer, always watchful to see if he will become like the one he seeks to destroy. Should she see any hint of him turning, she will not let him live.
-Personality:
Outwardly, Vala can be cheerful, almost playful but on the inside, she is consumed by rage and undying hatred. She feels betrayed by Lucifer who she believed in completely and utterly. She is filled with shame at her humiliating defeat, her once immense power shattered and forced to contend with underlings that once would have turned to dust under her gaze. Her attitude is indifferent to other races, her gaze completely focussed on Hell to the point she no longer thinks of the other realms of existence as any of her concern, at all. With her knowledge of human sorcery, she sees no need to worry about humanity any longer.
-Abilities:
Her wings allow her to fly. In close quarters she uses her claws and wings to fight.
Vala can consume the essences of dying demons, taking their power into herself and using it to repair her shattered essence. She hopes to eventually restore her own essence through this method.
Human Sorcery
Command Water: Currently she can summon and/or control water up to the volume of a small swimming pool and force of a pressure washer. Can also summon this water as a mist or as ice or combine with her fire mastery to form steam.
Command Earth: Currently she can throw rocks about the size of her head with a thought and cause minor tremors.
Arc Lightning: She can toss lightning bolts that currently are only strong enough to harm the weakest demons and paralyse others. Most demons of any note can easily shrug it off.
Elemental Strike: She can enhance her physical attacks with the powers of water or earth or lightning.
Demonology
Summon Demon: Using complex rituals, Vala can summon any demon of lesser or equal power. Currently this is confined to rank-and-file demons and a few lesser lieutenants.
Bind Demon: With the correct phrases and signs, she can bind a demon, making them as powerless as a child for demons of lesser or equal power. For more powerful demons it limits their powers although for Lords and their direct underlings, the bindings just are not strong enough to have any noticeable effect apart from enraging them.
-Appearance:
Valazeal
-Weapon:
Vala carries no weapons. She has no need for them.

Throughout The 9 circles, one will come across many demons, most of which he will have to defeat. To simplify things, Demons will be categorized by their power and other qualities for ease-of-description.

Lesser Demon: The weakest, and most common, demon that is part of an army. They are relatively easy to kill, but they can cause problems quickly if their numbers escalate.

Mid Demon: An average-powered demon. These comprise most units of decent importance in a Demon Lord's Army, and are usually moderately equipped. They are harder to kill, and some may have elemental ability.

Greater Demon: The strongest of the "usual" units in a Demon Lord's Army. Only about 1 in 2000 or so demons reach this stage, which make them important, and well trained and equipped, units. If a demon has reached this stage, his elemental powers, if he possesses any, will have developed them enough for frequent use.

Elemental Demon: While most demons have a small elemental affinity, some demons are comprised completely of their element. While they retain some physical structure, or object keeping the demon intact, most elemental demons seem to be made up completely of their element. [ex= [url=http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs22/f/2007/327/4/0/Anima__Fire_Demon_by_Wen_M.jpg]x , x ]


Aberrant: These demons possess a special quality that puts them apart from the rest. Be it their size, cunning, strength, or a myriad of other factors, these demons are a cut above the rest, and it is quickly known by their enemies. With enough work, some even have the potential to become a Demon Lord.

Demon Lord: A Demon Lord is a demon who possesses strength beyond that of a normal Demon, in ways that make them a great ally, or a feared enemy. Demon Lords usually are in command of their own armies, comprised of all ranked demons below them. It is still unknown why most Demon Lord's are as powerful as they are.

GateKeeper: The gateway of each circle is guarded by what is known as a GateKeeper. A gatekeeper is a Demon whose power rivals that of a demon lord, and is usually the strongest demon to reside on that floor. To descend down circles, one must bypass the GateKeeper, by one way, or another. A gatekeeper must not always be at the gate, however. Some choose to seclude themselves, testing the mettle of those who would challenge him.

[NOTE1: The gatekeeper possesses a special trinket that opens the gateway from their circle to the next, and this trinket is consumed upon use. Each GateKeeper is granted 1 trinket by the gate itself.]
(NOTE2: Once the GateKeeper is destroyed, a new one is chosen from the Circle from a power known only as 'Void', if noone voulnteers. This 'Void' calls out to the next GateKeeper, and seals their fate as such. This 'Void Effect' comes into effect after three full day cycles, that is, if noone stepped up to take the place by their own free will. It is also said that slaying a gatekeeper will grant you some of his power, which leads many demons to attempt to even find the elusive gatekeeper.)

Important NPCs to know:

Lucifer, AKA 'Satan, Overlord of Hell' - The main antagonist of the story. Not much is known about Lucifer, other than that Hell has warped him into a shell of what he once was, filled with nothing but evil and malice. That, and the whole revolt story. Very few meet this man, and come back alive. He is feared by many, and hated by many, though most wont admit their feelings openly, for fear of retribution.
Lucifer

Sonneillon, Lucifer's Servant and Top Agent - Lucifer's top informant and servant. Is fiercely loyal to his lord, and will do whatever it takes to see his lord's will done. He is merciless, but sometimes his pride gets in the way of action. Some believe that this man is just a rumor, and the stories of his actions are just that, stories, used to scare people into following Satan.
Sonneillon

Geryon, Izaeus' Servant and Cavalry General - A large Centaur that specializes in ranged combat, as well as the head of Izaeus' Cavalry Division. He is a very devoted and loyal follower of Izaeus, and will go to great lengths to please him. He also acts as a possible steed for Izaeus if the need arises, due to his large stature. He is a fine strategist, and he is also a very proud man.
Geryon

Kasdeya, Izaeus' Head Magess - Kasdeya is a powerful necromancer that head's the Magical Division of Izaeus' Army, as well as the Elemental Division. Being a succubus, she is able to seduce most men into doing what she wants, which keeps her mages in line. He tactical genius is a great asset to Izaeus, and she is currently his head tactician.
Kasdeya

Bael, Izaeus' Aerial General - Bael's strength lies in his ability to rally troops, as well as his skill wielding two swords. His charismatic ability seems limitless a times, having been seen to rally those even in the face of impossible odds. His soldiers seem to be happy throwing away their lives if need be in service to him. His deadly and graceful skills wielding his dual blades is also a great inspiration to his troops. He is also a former Demon Lord of the 1st Circle.
Bael

Kaim, Izaeus' Infantry General - Kaim is said to have been a rogue samurai that had taken his own life. His main weapon, the giant spiked club, was said to have been looted from the corpse of a giant demon that he had slain upon being sent to hell. After being bested in a duel, Kaim agreed to head the Infantry division of Izaeus' army, that is, if Izaeus continued to prove a strong, capable leader.
Kaim

Selvara, Izaeus' Head Agent - Selvara is Izaeus' head of his scouting parties, as well as his top forward agent, or spy. She is a master of deception, wielding lies as her most formidable weapon, save her womanly gifts. She seems quite suspicious at times, and even Izaeus is prone to becoming wary of her, even though she has yet to do nothing but prove her loyalty and worth. She also loves to hit on Izaeus, and get him riled up, in true Succubus fashion.
Selvara

Doctor Okarir, Head of Healing Brigade - An old Doctor, and old friend of Izaeus, during the first fall. After being cast down to hell, he allied with his old friend. After Izaeus was cast into the Abyss, Okarir went into hiding, only to reemerge once Izaeus was back, and on his 'Unholy Crusade', as some demons referred to his war against satan. He has, and always will, treat Izaeus like he was a nephew. He is never seen without his crow, Skul.
Doc Okarir


Master Duniel, ForgeMaster for Izaeus' Forces - Duniel is a very large bipedal demon, standing at around seven feet. This hulking man joined on Izaeus' force after wandering for several years, his forge being destroyed by rampaging forces allied to Satan. He is quite skilled in crafting both Armor and Weapons, and is strangely skilled in adding magical effects to weaponry. He is a strict teacher, but is not above rewarding those to excel.
ForgeMaster Duniel

Setting:
The time is late morning, the day after a skirmish with a local Demon Lord, Kairel, who is supposedly aligned loosely with Satan. Kairel's territory is directly in the way of the supposed path to the 1st Circle's Gate, which made conflict inevitable. There will likely not be a battle today.

Izaeus' forces caught a break the day before, due to the fact that they had caught Kairel's forces off-guard and weakened after a previous battle for territory with a different Demon Lord's forces, which was decimated by the battle. The losses on Izaeus' side numbered around 300, whereas Kairel's numbered near 1200. The enemy force seems to now be numbered near 3000 or so. Izaeus' force is estimated closely around 2000. There have also been rumors of dissent in the enemy forces, as well as Izaeus sympathizers.

The terrain is that of large Plains, with scattered pockets of trees, and plentiful, scattered bushes. The battle took place in a depression around 75 feet below Izaeus' current position, which spans a radius of around 1 kilometer. The enemy keep is located on the far end of the depression, ans is built into a sheer rock face. Izaeus' camp is mainly comprised of tents, and easily de-constructable structures. It is highly mobile, and can be packed up and moved within a matter of hours. The camp is large enough to ease congestion, and most people can make it to one end of the camp and back within a matter of half an hour. The camp is relatively quiet, save the guards, pack and attack animals, and those working on repairs to things like weapons, armor, and the like.

Izaeus stood next to his four generals, overlooking the previous days battlefield. The battlefield was relatively clean of their dead, however, around half of the enemy's dead still remained. Izaeus was conversing with them about the coming battle, and his new allies.

"Any opinions about our new allies? Speak openly and freely, I was a fair exchange of ideas.", Izaeus said to the group, fluttering his wings slightly for a cooling effect on his body. He stood in his usual attire, half of his armor with his clothing, and was the second tallest of the group, being dwarfed only by Geryon, who stood around 2 feet taller than his master. Kaim and Bael were around 2 inches shorter, and Kasdeya was around 4 inches shorter than he.


Bael spoke first. "I still harbor concern's over our recent addition of that Demon Slayer my liege. Even though you two initiated the Blood Pact, it does not stop her from harming others of our force.", he said, an obvious unease in his voice. "That said, I think this new Valazeal woman could be a powerful asset to us. She seems to hate Satan almost as much as you do my liege. That, and she has a wondrous form!", he finished, with a light chuckle.

Geryon chimed in next, after Bael finished. Kaim and Kasdeya kept their silence, both contemplating the question. Kasdeya turned to look at Bael, over the 'Wondrous form' remark.

"My liege, I have to agree with Bael on the account of unease with the addition of the Demon Slayer. She does not seem......I'm unsure how to say it. I just get an uneasy feeling.", he concluded, his voice more steadfast than Bael's. He shifted slightly, and place his large hand on Izaeus' shoulder. "My liege, be wary around her. Keep vigilant.", he concluded, his hand still on Izaeus' shoulder.

"Do not worry on the matter of the Demon Slayer.", he said, directing his voice to both Bael and Geryon. "Remember, I hold her soul in the palm of my hand.", he continued, raising his hand, holding his palm open to the sky. A small Wisp of dark red light appeared, and swirled around like a wisp in his hand, before disappearing back into it. "She will not turn on us. I will see to it myself at every opportunity.", he concluded. The other to chimed in on the conversation, and the 5 stood there conversing with each other, over matters great and small, as well as a bit of personal talk as well. One thing of note was another of Bael's great anecdotes, which helped ease the tension of the group.

Evidently humans allowed their enemies to collect their wounded after battle, it was seen as a courtesy that gave one hope that being wounded by the enemy was not an automatic death sentence and that life was still held as sacred even in the midst of bloody conflict. Demons were different, there was no quarter given and all the wounded were prey.

Valazeal smirked, watching as a lesser demon tried to crawl away, one of its legs missing. Kicking it over, she pinned it to the ground, straddling it as she looked down into its mad eyes. "Don't worry," she said comfortingly. "I'm going to take your pain away. You're going to bleed out anyway."


"Please," it begged. "Please."

She shook her head, her white hair caught by a slight breeze, bringing the smell of smoke and death to her nostrils. Her face wrinkled slightly in distaste. There had been too many demons killed this fight, it gave her little to feed on but she still found the occasional one in the midst of the thousands of bodies. They would all be burned once she was done, the fire elementals had grown to fear her temper after she had personally torn one to pieces and feasted on its soul for burning the bodies from a previous battle before she had a chance to pick off the wounded.

"Please..."

"You serve the false Lord of Hell. You have no right to live." Her hands glowing with greenish blue light, she plunged them straight through its chest.

A shriek followed by a sickening crunch marked the passing of the lesser demon as its soul erupted from where its ribcage used to be. Blood soaking into the ground, staining it a blackish red as the smell of his insides added to the nauseating stench of battle.

The demoness smiled, standing up elegantly, her leather hotpants creaking slightly. Stretching her lean blood-spattered grey body with a yawn, she looked around and shrugged. She had had everything worth having. There had been a few Mid Demons to feast on but unfortunately no Greater Demons had fallen in battle so she had no real power to feat upon. She was almost at the level of personally fighting one herself but that would definitely take feasting upon one of them to make sure of it. Turning away from the battlefield, she slowly made her way back to camp. Her tail swayed lightly behind her, her mood always cheerful while the buzz of new power flowed through her veins.

Come, join us... We'll make it all better... No need to worry, it won't hurt... Don't struggle... We are your allies now..."NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Nathan sat up, and reached for his crossbow, and saw that it was a few feet away he scrambled for the bow and when he grabbed it, he stopped, realizing that there was no danger. He was in a field, it was morning, and there was nothing around for miles. He looked around, sensing something evil about the place, but could not place it.

Nathan walked over to his satchel, which lay where he had awoken, and went to pick it up. When he reached his hand down to grab it, he saw that his hand, no longer looked like his own, it looked demon-like. No, this can't be right, it has to be a dream, it HAS to. He quickly checked his other hand, it looked the same as the other. He checked his features with the mirror he had in his satchel, he looked normal, except for his eyes which were a deep dark red, instead of bright green, and the now very large fangs he had growing in his mouth. "No, no it can't be, they... they killed me, they couldn't have... They can't have... What the hell have they done to me?!?!"

Nathan panicked, knowing in his heart that the demons he had faced inflicted upon him, a fate worse than death for him. "Why would they turn me into one of them, they should have just killed me, but they brought me... wherever this is, and turned me into one of THEEEEEEEEM!!!!" Nathan screamed this last word, as loud as he possibly could, and putting all his sorrow and anguish into this deep growling scream. Nathan collapsed to his knees, and held his crossbow to his head, and prepared to fire.

No, not yet, you still have a purpose... you need to help him... then you will be absolved... A hissing voice in his head came through clearly. He opened his eyes and looked around, "Help who, why should I, my purpose is to kill all demons... like me..." Nathan said to the voice, which he only assumed was his own.Help the one called Izaeus, he seeks to end the one who killed your family... Once that is done, your purpose will be fulfilled, and you will be absolved... "Who are you? You cannot be me, as I have never heard of Izaeus, and as far as I know, the one who killed my family was killed." All will be revealed in time, but remeber this; You have a purpose, only you can fulfill it, and only you can stop it... Go to the East, it is there you will find him. With these words, a prescence seemed to drift away from Nathan's mind. Nathan began to stand, grabbed his satchel with his now gloved hands, and slung it over his shoulder. With his crossbow and compass in hand, he set off to the East in search of the one called Izaeus.
