STORY
The apocalypse has been and gone, demons now rule the broken reminisce of earth and what is left of the human race live in constant war... the demons allow the human race to survive solely because you can't terrorize a world with no one in it. Humans live in three main tribes or gangs: the sharks, the street rats, and the forties. with almost all factories destroyed, the gangs have to make, find or trade what they need. This is were you enter, not all have lost hope and rumors are beginning to circulate that a hero will soon rise to free them from the demons... could this be you?
GANGS
THE SHARKS: when the demons began culling the population the sharks took to the water (this is what earned the name 'sharks') and live in makeshift boats or a port city that grew from an oil rig.... as the only gang that can produce fuel, they often trade with the other gangs, but pollution renders them un able to feed themselves without trade.
((lead by ))
THE STREET RATS: like the sharks they ran from the cull and make use of the sewers, subways and their own tunnels (again they earned the name) only the rats know were their main hideout is but unlike the other gangs they don't all live there... able to move quickly around the ruins of the world they break into the vast stockpiles of food and trade it to the other gangs for fuel and weapons.
((lead by ))
THE FORTIES: this gang refused to run, refused to hide and met the demons head on. By far the bravest the forties earned the name by building a large fortress from the ruins of the world... it is the only place the demons have yet to take... as large parts of the fortress used to be industrial the forties are able to produce and maintain weapons, ammo and basic vehicles far easier than the other gangs. With these powerful recourses to trade they acquire food and fuel from the other gangs.
((lead by seiglegar ))

ProfilesGaia name: seiglegar Character name: curoar hawklight Gang: forties Roll/status: leader Appearance: 6 foot tall and heavily built, his dark hair is kept short and he almost always dresses in denim with ragged blue shirts and sturdy boots. His dark eyes show his resolve as do the many scars across his body, most notably the one that splits his brow and trails down his cheek, a wound that almost claimed his left eye. he bares dog tags inscribed with the usual name, rank, serial number and blood type on one side, and "together we are strong" on the reverse. History/Bio: at 6 foot tall curoar is a towering and intimidating foe and an inspiring ally, when the demons came he refused to back down and soon rallied others around him. He has and will always lead by example, and never asks someone to do what he would not be willing to himself, were he able. His approach is always foretold by the gentle jangle of his dog tags. Weapons: shotgun, great sword, and his modified quad bike. gaia name: Narea k.p ~!~Wink~!~ character name: Chihiro Takimaru ((Enzai for a nick name)) gang: The Forties roll/status: Spy/info. collecter. appearance:  history/Bio: Chihiro Had wondered the earth alone, watching people, trying to keep alive. though getting food was very difficult for her, she managed. Given a Katana when her father, the last member of her family, died, she decided to learn about all the humans and demons left on the planet. Although she got in a lot of trouble, Chihiro managed to continue her studies, wanting to know their weakpoints. Upon Studying the leader of a group one day, he caught her out of the corner of his eye. The chace was long, but he finally caught her. He offered her a spot in his gang as a spy, and, after a few days of thinking and watching, Chihiro decided to join. Although she is new, the gang members know that she is smarted and stronger than she looks. She doesn't fight often, unless needed to save her life. She is good at being quiet, and can run faster than almost any man, or demon. She loves blackberries, though she doesnt eat much of anything. She was nick-named Enzai, so that when she was spying, noone could learn her real name.She can be very stubborn, and doesnt get along well with others, except for her new leader. She dresses in all black, no matter what, and she always has her long red hair either down stright, or tied into a black ribbon. weapons: ((Everyone's favorite: )) Katana Gaia Name: Ino NailoCharacter Name: Sarah KerriganGang: Street RatsRoll/Status: Master ThiefAppearance: Serah Kerrigan is shown on the left. She has a strange scar that appears both on her chest and on her back in the same spot, about the size of a fist.History/Bio: During the first few week's that the demon's began to appear, Sarah was attacked by a demon who stabbed it's hand through her chest. She was saved by an unknown stranger, who dropped her off at a hospital, where she was able to keep her life. She fled to the sewer's as soon as she recovered enough to move, and has been living amongst the Street rat's ever since. She doesn't know who saved her, and can only vaguely remember the demon that stabbed her, but has resolved to one day kill the demon, if it hasn't died already, and thank her savior. Sarah is a natural at thieving, and is quick with her hands and feet, so she can steal half your clothes and you wouldn't even notice until she'd be ducking into the nearest sewer, and is considered the best thief amongst the Street Rats. Sarah is only slightly good at close combat, but can only handle the weaker demons if they appear alone. Due to her scar, she becomes fatigued easily when fighting and it can cause her searing pain when their are too many demon's present, almost as if the scar itself was trying to finish the job it's owner had started, by causing Sarah to falter in battle.Weapons: A wakizashi called Ryuuza. The blade measuring 9" and the hilt 5".[pic coming soon] Because of it's intricate design and history, it was said to be blessed by a priestess, granting it demon-killing powers in the hand's of those pure of heart. However, that has not been proven, and is merely considered superstition to Sarah. She simply regards it as a normal short sword and wear's it along her lower back.

curoar patrolled the wall of the huge fortress in the ruined city, it had been ruined so long he bairly remembered what thew city was once called. prefering to stay as equal as he could dispite being the leader of the forties curoar always patrolled the walls with the dawn shift and often left with the afternoon scavenger party as a guard, determined to pull his weight.
the rising sun marked the mid point of curoar's shift, and for his already hot gun, a quieter few hours as the demons prefered to move around under the cover of darkness.
"it's never over, just another day. only threw trial do we find the strength we need, the strength to set us free..." he sang quietly to himself as he watched the sun slowly drive back the darkness, just as he wished he could drive back the demons.

Chihiro jumped quickly ontop of the old stone wall, using her right hand to rub her right eye sleepily. "Any thing yet?" She asked quietly with a soft yawn, looking down at the leader. He had always been the one to demonstrate things, so show the others how its supossed to be done, yet he wasnt bosy like Chihiro thought a normal leader would be.

Curoar jumped slightly, having not herd her approach, and span round with his gun ready. realising who it was in plenty of time he swung his gun up into the waiting sling beside the sword on his back and blushed slightly that he had been caught singing.
"no, just the usual scouting partys... so few, i doubt they'll be trying to raid us any time soon." he answered with his usual, friendly tone and confident smile

Sarah darted along the ground, making her way through rubble and decay. The only demon's she had spotted were some of the smaller one's, who could only afford to travel in the light, as most of the stronger demons Sarah witnessed preferred the night. Those demons were already heading back, sleeping probably, or whatever it is demons do when they're not hunting or pestering the remaining humans.
Sarah came across a wall, which could only be called a wall because one could see the remains of a window, as the rest of the wall was crumbling for the most part. Sarah peered around it, noting a smaller demon about the size of a child crawling across the ground and sniffing the air, before finding nothing and moving on. Had Sarah been upwind of him, he would have proven to be more of an annoyance then that. Sarah could have taken it on, but if it had called a few friends...
Sarah pulled her mind away from that thought, she would be entering their territory soon. It wasn't often that she ventured into their territory, and she had to use a different rout each time, as they were always too alert to completely sneak in and out unnoticed. But it was worth it, as the had much better medical supply's then the Street Rat's did, and the occasional weapon was good as well, but if one took too much at once, The Forties might actually begin to think one a threat.
Thus, Sarah only snuck into their fort maybe once a month, whenever she needed something...or just felt a little bored. Though getting caught would not be fun, as most of it's member's were twice as versed in combat as Sarah was...but that just made it all the more challenging to not get caught. Sarah darted back out from behind the wall, having given the demon from earlier enough time to become interested in something else, as she continued along her rout.
[don't worry, all my intro's are long like this...>.>...*has had a 7 paragraph intro a few times* other then that, I normally try to stick to 2-4 paragraph's per post, unless I feel really eager to post...alright, now off to work for a few hours...>.>... sweatdrop ]

"Oh..I see..Then I'll-" Chihiro Quickly turned, eyes wide toward one end of the long wall. She watched for a few seconds, hearing a few rocks slide a bit, as if something was entering their territory. She quietly stood ontop of the wall, walking silently toward the noise, knowing something was there. When she reached where the noise was, she noticed that it looked like someone had moved through the area, seeing as the rocks were not in the same order as before. She didn't see anything, but still felt suspicious. She turned, then quickly walked along the wall back to her leader. "There was something there...It looks like it was moving into our area.." She said, her eyes still toward the area where the rocks were moved.

With a simple gesture curoar sounded the alarm, passing on to the other wall guards with nothing but a hand sign the order to be on the look out for an intruder. the guards knew exactly what to do and while half continued to patrol the walls the rest swept threw the fort.
Curoar's policy on intruders was simple; demons were to be killed on sight, shown the same mercy they had when they took the world, while humans were to be captured. Humans that were caught trying to steel from the fort were simply tied up somewhere and sent back to the relevant gang with the next trade convoy. The "good faith" act of returning these thieves preserved the fragile peace between the gangs, and usually brought back extra supplies.
The closest building to where Chihiro had pointed, bar the wall itself, was the main garage, so that was where curoar started to look for the intruder.

Chihiro sighed softly. Looking for people and things was easiest for her, because she had an extremely good eye for detail. She sighed softly while Jumping down from the wall. "It wasn't a demon..even a child demon knows how to not mess things up when they sneak into places, even more so knows also not to sneak in when the lighting for things is bright enough for a half blind person to be able to see. It had to be a human.." She said out loud to herself as she walked around. Spotting an apple on one of the shelfs in the area, Chihiro grabbed it. She took a small bite out of it, then continued walking while chewing on it. When she decided that it was pointless for her to look, she walked back to the wall and sat on it, her legs dangling over the edge, as she continued to eat.

[okay, it would have been shorter, but since it deleted my first post, I had to re-write it...and it somehow came out a bit longer then it origionally did ...>.>... but I guess you can still count this as my intro, since Sarah hasn't began to interact with anyone...>.<...they'll get shorter once she's saved. 3nodding *laugh's at Gaia in triumpth, as she won, and it was posted, instead of deleted once again*]
Sarah frowned lightly, cursing her luck. Because of the child-like demon, she had lost her concentration and apparently slipped up enough to get caught already, and she hadn't even snuck in yet. She darted away from the structure, as she avoided the search parties, weaving her way through them silently. Even if she was caught, she was dressed in no specific outfit, at least nothing that clearly defined her as a Street Rat or a Shark. She could be taken as just some human lucky enough to have survived so long alone. Sarah noted a crevice, hidden away into the ground behind a building, as she darted inside quickly.
From the top, it looked like on of the normal cracks in the earth that appeared when the earth shuttered from the Demon's appearance, but it went in pretty deep, and there was plenty of room inside, with the entrance covered well enough. She could only slightly hear the echoing of the wind farther inside the small cave-like crevice. Sarah sighed lightly, safe from the search parties for now. She’d have to devise another rout out of here, and though it would be difficult with the search parties, it wouldn't be impossible...just inconvenient. After making up her mind, she moved back towards the opening of the crevice, listening for any sounds from outside. Nothing...no humans, no demons, even the wind was silent.
'Wind...' The thought tugged at the back of her mind. 'Wasn't the wind blowing through here earlier?' She thought, as her chest began to tighten, her scar throbbing lightly. The echo she heard from the cave now was not the slow blowing of the wind, but the shifting of claws against stone. Something was moving...and Sarah had a feeling she knew what it was. Of course...it was not wind earlier she had heard, but breathing...the steady breathing of a demon, one that had just woken up to find breakfast standing in its doorway. Sarah peeked back, into the crevice as a massive shadow seemed to grow from the ground, as two red slit's appeared, it's eye's focusing on Sarah. It made sense now, that's why the entrance was so well hidden...so fresh. But for something so massive to live so close to The Forties...it couldn't live here without going unnoticed, meaning it had most likely only lived here the past day or two...three at the most.
Sarah darted out of the Crevice, having no intention of fighting such a thing even if she was in her own territory, never mind that of the Forties. Though it was apparent that the speed of the demon overtook that of a human like Sarah, as she didn't even make it back to the ruined wall before she felt a clawed hand grab her shoulder, and jerk her backwards, covering her mouth so as to muffle any noise. This demon was at least intelligent enough to know too much ruckus this close to the Forties base was not a good idea. The demon's hand closed around Sarah's mouth, as it lifted her in the air lightly, bringing her to eye level with itself, leaving Sarah dangling a good foot or two off the ground. Sarah didn't have time to think; only to act, as she brought Ryuuza forward, drawing it quite quickly, as she slammed it into the demon's arm that held her.
The demon reared back in momentary surprise, letting out a roar more of anger then pain, as Sarah dropped, darting around the creature to escape. It was then that she noticed the tail...the very hard and thick tail...as it slammed into her stomach, forcing the air from her body and sending her shooting into the closest wall, the rotten stone crumbling easily under the force she was thrown at. The demon no longer cared for subtly, as the roar it had let out gave away it's position either way, so it did not need to be subtle any longer, as it advanced upon Sarah, who could only cough up a bit of blood and clutch her chest, her scar throbbing like mad in the presence of a demon, as Sarah struggled to refill her lung's with enough air to dodge the oncoming demon.

"GET AWAY FROM HER!" curoar yelled as he leapt from the fort's wall and unloaded three shells into the demon before he even landed. as he rolled on the rough ground he slung his shotgun and drew his sword. this human probably wasn't one of his, one of the forties, but there was no way he'd let a demon take her all the same.
as curoar closed to stand over sarah the rest of the wall guard arraid themselfs on the wall like they had done many times before.
"Try it, demon!" curoar daired the beast, knowing it would be no match for him and his wall guard, not alone.

Chihiro looked over as all the the guards stood on the wall. She raised an eyebrow, and decided to see what it was. as she budged her way two large gaurds, she saw the demon. With a quick, loud gasps, she quickly jumped down from the wall and ran straight for the girl, reaching her in a matter of seconds. When she slidded to a stop, she sat next to the girl, grabbing her hands and pulling her back to the wall.
"Don't let him touch her!" She called out to every gaurd as she lifted the girl over the wall, one of the guards helping her. As she jumped over the wall, she pulled the girl farther away from it, about a good ten feet, and sat next to her. She was not proned to fighting at all, but was the fastest of all the forties, exceptt for the leader. She was always finding things, no matter if it was gold or humans, and she always took them away from the battle. It was like her job almost to do so.

[Ah, sorry, I figured you'd take control of the demon, but here's one last post with it, after which feel free to kill the demon as you see fit. xp ]
The demon reared at the bullet's, lashing it's arm out when the shot's fired. The first one hit it in the upper left shoulder, while it blocked the other two with it's left arm from hitting anything too damaging. Two bullet's in one arm, one bullet in it's shoulder, and a dagger in it's other arm. This was just not this demon's day, as it roared at the man before it, who seemed to challenge it with a sword, and a wall full of men. Puny little human's who were just so annoying. Their was no need to flee, it was only a few human's after all, as it lunged forward, straight at the man calling out his own challange to the demon.
***************************
Sarah heard the the shot's ring out...two? No, three...and she barely glanced up just to see a figure landing down in front of her, drawing a sword. Sarah had gotten careless, being caught in the Demon's home, but she'd rather alert the whole of the Forties then die by the hand of a demon, at least not before she knew a specific one of them was dead. Before sarah could finish catching her breath she was grabbed by another woman, a quick glance told her the woman was actually quite cute, but this wasn't really the time to note such things.
After being pulled away by the girl, the pain in her chest subsided enough after lengthening the distance from the demon, giving her time to catch her breath. She grabbed the arm of the woman who pulled her away, before attempting to talk. "Ryuuza..." She gasped, before taking a few more breathes. "Don't let it leave with my Ryuuza...I stabbed it...and Ryuuza stuck in it's arm." She noted, calming down a little.

Chihiro looked down at the girl, then at the demon, a bit paniced. "Why are you so careless???" She warned, looking back to the girl. Chihiro grabbed a blanket, covering the girl quickly with it, then ran with all her might, jumping high enough to land quickly on her hands ontop of the wall, only giving herself half a second to push off, twisting in the air as best as she could, then ducking quickly as the demon spotted her, swipping an arm at her. She landed, slidding a bit toward the demon.
She dodged the demons huge fists quickly as it tried to pound her into the cold ground. "Make this easy on yourself, you Monster!! I'm faster than you, So just give me two seconds and!" As Chihiro teased a bit, spotting the sword, she was hit hard, the demon swinging its arm at it, sending her flying toward the wall. She hit it hard, rolling her body a bit into a ball through the pain. She flinched as she tried to stand, the pain overwellming.
She managed enough to look back at one of the men who was now around her. She looked toward one of the bigger of the guys, grabbing onto his arm quickly. "Throw me straight at it.." She whispered, the blood dripping from her right arm and her lip. The man hesitated a bit, conserned about her, but did as she said, picking her up, and throwing her hard at the demon.
Chihiro stretched her arms out, grabbing onto the demons arm with one hand, and her other on the sword. The demon flicked it's arm around agrily, but Chihiro hung on long enough to get the sword back. As she jumped off from the demon, she took the held the sword close to her, one of the men catching her, and setting her quickly on the other side of the ruined wall.
Chihiro walked painfully back to the girl, laying the sword gently infront of her. "Here.." She said, the bloodloss getting to her as she fainted, landing infront of the girl, looking peacefull as if she was sleeping. As the guards all knew, she wasn't dead, nor hurts enough to die. She just needed her rest after a long run, and she couldn't help it.

"CHIHIRO!... damn you... I'M YOUR OPPONENT!" curoar yelled angrily, hating to see one of his own get hurt. he lashed out at the demon with the huge sword but the blade was only just long enough to cut a shallow gash across the creature's chest.
as the demon roard in pain it swung round and clumsily tried to smash curoar into the groind, but the forties leader had already moved and quickly sliced off the feind's huge fist, however he'd failed to track the other hand that then slammed hard into his chest, flinging him over the wall and creating an opening for the wallguard to open fire, mowing down the beast in a breaf but bloody hail that targeted the weak spots in the demons hard skin, showing just how well these men knew what they were doing.
