Mini 1397: War is Hell (Game Over)
HELL.
It's not all brimstone and screaming... but then, neither is it harps and clouds(for that matter, neither is Heaven, for those whose memories of the original descent may be somewhat lacking). Strife and conflict are commonplace, but thereisheirarchy even amongst the Fallen, and thereisorder amidst the turmoil. Many times over the Epochs have your numbers swelled, and once the very fabric of the Universe trembled at the battle between the loyal Angelic Host and the Fallen Angels, who have become Demons upon their arrival in this place of exile. But exile is not a death sentence for an Angel; it can also mean a freedom to become whatever your corrupted heart can envision. Some cast off wings and grew the tails of serpents; others discarded voice and music in favor of the roar and bellow of great cats and apes. Still others plucked out their uncounted eyes and meditated upon the inferno itself, until they could move or sense as well in pitch blackness as the heart of a sun.

This is a Semi-Open setup, with Split Roles/Motives. While the roles are structured similarly to previous Angel Nightless games, the flavor is very different. What follows is merely an example of a loyal (Town) Demon's Role PM:

Rules
- Ethical:
- Do not discuss the game by any meansoutside of this thread unless your role PM explicitly says that you may.
- Don't quote any PMs/private communication directly in thread. Likewise, once you are cast out, stop talking; you can say your piece once the game is over. I will set up a Green Room for dead players.
- Don't edit/delete your posts, even if you have the privileges to do so. It violates the integrity of the game and can screw up the game thread. I will take care of duplicate posts or formatting errors upon request.
- Treat this game as a commitment, to me and your fellow players. If you're going to be gone more than about 48 hours on a non-weekend, let us know. Doing so without warning will earn you a Prod, and multiple Prods may result in your replacement.
- Lying is a sin(lying to Satan is akin to a deathwish); pretending to break a rule(quoting a fake role PM, for example)will result in the same punishment as actually breaking that rule. If you have to think about whether or not you're breaking the rules when you're about to do something,ask me via PM!
- Robust cryptography and steganography are not allowed in my games.
- Remember, it's a game. It's supposed to be fun. It's supposed to be interactive. Do your part.
- Mechanical:
- Thy Mod is like unto a God, but with a shorter temper and worse language. There are some unusual features in this game; most are public between this thread and previous Angel Nightless games, but not all are, of course. Feel free to PM me or ask in thread if something is confusing; I reserve the right to ignore the question or give misleading answers if it would compromise the game.
- There are no 'lynches' or 'voting' in this game for thematic reasons. Instead, you may either HURT: player or HEAL: player, once every 24 hours, to move them closer/further from being 'cast out' of the game. These actions must be in bold, and must use exactly that verb (there are also tags now, [hurt]/[heal]/[hurt2]). Feel free to describe your attack or defence in more detail, though!
- The Rage mechanic is now available to all Demons; PM me who you wish to attack and how many RP to utilize. Your maximum Rage will be reflected in your Role PM. Note: Rage no longer accumulates on an exactly-timed basis, though you will still get a PM when it accrues, either from someone's death or due to Hell's malevolence.
- I will not provide damage tallies more often than every 8-12 hours, but will try to provide them approximately every 24 hours if changes in health have occurred.
- Once someone reaches 0 HP, they will be destroyed (no Healing will help at that point) as soon as I return to the thread; after that, they may no longer interact with the game thread or players in any way not specified by their role PM. Regardless of how quickly I return to the thread, actions will be processed sequentially, so others may still Heal/Hurt during Twilight, for example.
- Healing may not take someone more than 1 point above their original total HP. You may not Heal (or Hurt) yourself. In this game, Healing will 'steal' a HP from you until the next time you gain Rage.
- Damage levels are preserved even after someone is cast out! A sample tally will look like:
First Damage Tally of the First Æon:
Some Pansy Angel has taken 3 damage.
A Winged Fool has taken 2 damage.
Astaroth and Shax have both taken 1 damage each.
Dantalion, Andromalius, and Gäap are all undamaged.
- This is a Nightless game, and should need no deadlines. If you anger your Mod through excessive sloth, I will very...upset(this includes someone deliberately standing aside from the conflict). I reserve the right to decide what to do about sloth at the time, not that I fear it will happen in this game...
- Any questions about player damage tallies (like vote counts), overall game mechanics, or prods/replacements for players, mention it in thread. You may preface them with Mod:orGreat Lord:to catch my eye, if that helps.

But while Heaven still reels from the ongoing defection in its ranks, an unusual tumult has been raised in this corner of Hell.Duke Astarothhas been discovered, disfigured and decapitated. That in itself would ordinarily occasion no great alarm; Hell's heirarchy is not sacrosanct, frozen in place like the מטּזרּזבןמב structure of Heaven, and assassinations do occur. But not in the memory of any Demon has such an assault been accompanied by the wretched ץרטּגהמשּ ofangelic grace. His sigil smokes on the ground beneath his corpse, but an iridescent stench clings to it, and a miasma of harmonies vibrates through the air above the body.
Duke Astaroth, Archdemon of Hell (NPC),
has been destroyed utterly.
Astaroth's powers, among others, encompassed the ability to mask his form and change his shape at will. From the evidence you can find, his killers may very well have absorbed that ability; no trace of angelic infestation drizzles off conveniently into the distance like a snail's ללמ. The Duke's killers cannot have gone far, and may have further mischief on their minds. But why now? Why here, when Heaven itself can seem to do little to stem the tide flowing out from its shining פהזרםבּ walls? That is the mystery, and the task with which Satan has constrained your corner of Hell to perform.
"גבטרּOFF, DEMONS. TAKE CARE OF IT YOURSELVES, I'M BUSY!"
Well, then.
Time to unlimber swords and unsheath claws, and get down to the dirty business of digging out the putrid goodness that infests Hell.
GAME ON!(no confirmations needed)-

If you mean can you actually utilize Rage in-thread, no. You can 'call' for whatever you like...In post 22, quadz08 wrote:Lord, can we call to use a rage point from in-thread?
Broadly speaking the roles are of the same type, just reflavored. As it says in the FAQ though, the sample roles are not guaranteed to be exhaustive.In post 22, quadz08 wrote:Almighty, does this game contain similar roles as the last ones (seraphim / ophanim / erelim / cherubim)?

PeregrineV snarls and spits defiance, reeling with the blows but throwing back spite and venom in equal amounts to any of you. The problem is, he is outnumbered, knows it, and is impotent against his hate of the fact. His swipe at Kinetic breezes past without effect. When Tierce's next blow lands, he stumbles and utters "¢ҩ¢ʎᴤʉ¢ʎξԓ!" with a low and clear voice, then collapses to the ground in a bubbling, oily heap which bursts briefly into Stygian fire. The flames gutter low, and when the ooze burns away, only his sigil remains.
Duke Berith, Great Demon of Hell, has been slain.
First Damage Tally of Epoch II:
Kinetic and Yosarian's actions are unspent.- Kinetichas taken 1 damage.

Rhythmic chanting builds stronger and stronger, seeming to echo from every corner of Hell. The basso voices and shrill cries are almost drowned out at times by the piercing wails of the damned souls. When the racket suddenly crashes to a stop, you feel energized.

Suddenly a vast cacophony of traded blows rings out, and half of the participants disappear briefly in a swirl of flame that springs up from the depths. The groans and screams this time threaten to shatter your eardrums (or eyestalks, depending on how you personally sense the realm), as they are fueled not by souls but by dying demons. When everything clears and the survivors gasp for breath, not one but two bodies lie melting into puddles of ichor at your feet:FateandVoidedmafia.
Count Bifrons, Demon of Hell, has been slain.
Prince Sitri, Demon of Hell, has been slain.

Actinic blue lightning flashes on the horizon, racing around you like the whirling edge of a hurricane. It draws closer and closer, making your hair, fur, and/or cilliae stand on end. Just before it reaches you, though, it fades into indigo, then an inky purplish-black, then nothing. You shake your head to clear it from the Hellstorm, and feel stronger.

Caustic spittle flecks the air as words of invective are traded like blows. A few solid hits land, but for one, Yosarian2 seems to be hit much harder than he should be.

Yosarian grins fiendishly as the battle is joined ever more vigorously, turning from side to side as hidden attackers buffet him. However eventually even the great armored demon is brought low by the toll, and he flies apart in a scatter of chittering vermin.
As his sigil dissolves slowly into the stone, etching a brief reminder of his time here, Hell quakes and rumbles, and a new mountain range raises up in what you might call the "east". As you watch it pierce the glowering clouds, you feel stronger despite the loss of your compatriot.

Lady LambdaDeltaseems to be humming to herself as the tide turns against her, and a goofy grin crosses her face when it's not wracked with agony. You wonder what she's on (or whether her mind has simply snapped like a toothpick), when she falls to the ground suddenly, arching in pain. A sigil pours forth and burns along the ground, revealing Orobas' telltale markings.
"Anotherפהזגטברּ demon, you think?? But..."
And then the sigil shimmers and fades much too quickly, revealing the רטּɨלמﬗטּרםתשּ stench of an ANGEL in your midst.
Camael, Ophanim, has been driven out of Hell.

The sonorous gonging of a bell vibrates down to your bones, cartilage, and adamantine skeletons... Hell trembles with the elemental force of the burst of energy as it washes over the stunned battlefield, leaving you all feeling refreshed and somewhat stronger.

The skies darken and pulse with black energy. You hear Satan's voice reverberate in your bones and liquefy your muscles as his rage washes over the field of confrontation.

The long struggle wears at the combatants like the sluggish waves of the River Cocytus.quadz08grows weary and snaps at the others, voice rising like a tempest. Shaking free of their lethargy, many blows are traded before quadz finally lies slain on the ground. His form burns slowly around in pulsing pustules of heat, before fading away.

Seeing his companion's form bleeding away on the ground before him,MattPknows innately that his own death will be soon in coming. Indeed, a massive attack soon cleaves his body in twain. Despite the halves of his corpse falling some distance away from each other, a symmetrical and connected sigil etches itself into the stone upon his death.
Duke Vapula, Demon of Hell, has been slain.

Hell groans and writhes around you, a lake of fire blooming to the west and a blood-red diamond the size of a mountain piercing the ground to the north. When the material beneath your feet stops shaking, you feel stronger and refreshed.
Third Damage Tally of Epoch VII:

- Quilfordis at his normal maximum HP.
- Tierce,Kinetic,Zdenek, andkanyeknowsbestare at 1 HP above their normal maximum HP.
A particular type of Demon/Fallen/Angel will have the same root powers, but not necessarily the same form, rank, etc. That's all I'll say about that.In post 2555, Zdenek wrote:Mod: could someone of one class of loyal demons, have powers not possessed by other members of the same class?-

Noxious vapors pour forth from the ground, rising to swirl around your tentacle-leg-pincer-lower-attachments. Rather than making you sick, however, they remind you of your true purpose here on this battlefield, and you feel stronger for the experience.

The guises of the Marquises Andras and Sabnach fall to the ground, broken and dripping with ichor as the painful light of Angelic bodies bursts forth from within them.KineticandQuilfordstep into the fray clad in their own raiment at last, free to act in this weakened corner of ruin and despair.
"There is something we want, and you ɖɒɱԓөɗ ᴤþᵻᴦזɨל are going to give it to us!"
Unsurprised by the presence of Angels in their midst, the Demons are nonetheless taken aback by the idea that they couldwantanything here. The Angels waste no time utilizing the distraction to strike several blows, piercingXalxethrough the abdomen and ripping upwards viciously. The Demon's last words die on his lips as he falls, but appear to be something akin to, "פהזגטברּ ɮᶏʃᵵɒ ɽ͡ɖς". His body disintegrates rapidly into tiny circuits coursing with red energy.
Marquis Naberius, Loyal Demon, has been destroyed.
Kinetic smiles with horrific pleasure as Xalxe falls, and the light from his eyes just before they close glows crystalline white. He leaps into the smoking air, unfurling dozens of wings as he focuses a burst of Grace directly atkanyeknowsbest, which meets one coming the other way from his partner. kanye's frail and twisted corpse nearly disintegrates under the onslaught, but a swirl of glowing motes sizzles on the ground briefly before scattering on the winds.
King Viné, Loyal Demon, has been annihilated.
Spinning with the momentum of the assault, he flicks hand out and casually finishes off the weakened and wounded Zdenek, who groans and collapses, his dying curse unheard.
King Paimon, Loyal Demon, has been killed.
Alone and surrounded, Tierce flashes out her own flaming wings briefly, then slowly backs away as the two close on her. "I know nothing of what you ɒʃᵴђҩʆзᴤ are after!" she snarls, but her fate is inevitable, as the two massive and unwounded Angels start to carve pieces off. Their interrogations make less and less sense as she weakens, but she dies knowing that she did not help them with their esoteric and unknown quest.
Marquisse Phenex, Loyal Demon, has been slain.

Their enemies routed and the battlefield quiet for the moment, the two Angels turn to each other impatiently. "If it's not here...wait! What is that sound?"
The merest whisper of words, nearly lost among the ambient clatter of Hell, emerges from somewhere to the south. The two pace slowly south, closing their wings again and sheathing swords so as not to draw attention, if possible. A few moments later, their search is rewarded as a scrap of a soul is plucked from a promontory of rock.
"Is...is that really him?" Quilford asks, blinking at the trembling remnant of a once-great member of the Angelic Host.
"Indeed," Kinetic replies, folding the scrap reverently and placing it inside his breastplate, close to the rapidly beating heart. "Come. It is time to bring the Metatron back to Heaven."
And with that, the two of them release wings and bolt directly upward, leaving their ashen and stinking surroundings for better company and soothing climate.
