Black Yoshi
look at that PUNGENT KILLSTICK.
Heaven's Protégés (OOC, Signups) OPEN
Exactly 237 years ago, to this day, the 356 Abdal, or "Friends of God" descended secretly to earth, with orders to locate perfect apprentices to train until the war between Heaven and Hell began. For almost two and half centuries, they each had apprentices, hoping it could be their last, but time began to drag on. It became a repetetive ritual of training, locating, and training another pupil, only to watch them wither away later.
Three years ago, after the first pre-war skirmishes began, the search became frantic. Approximately seven or eight months ago, you were chosen by a Badeel for training. You were given weapons, proven by history to be effective in battle, from old cultures, whether they be close to your own, or so far you can barely comprehend its nature. Either way, you've done your best to master both these weapons and your body to aide in the fight against the legions of Hell. Your Badeel has organized a trip to meet with other Apprentices, who you will form an elite team with. Take up arms, Apprentices, for you are the first and last line of defense for the human race.

RULES:
1. Use your etiquette, dammit. It's a sticky thread, you shouldn't need a link.
2. Length. Post length would prefferably be long-ish, BUT, Quality over Quantity. Make your posts, above all, meaningfull, and not just something to take up space in the thread. You get nowhere, and neither does anyone else.
3. Be social. I have a personal belief that RPs begin for their plot, but only last if the characters interact. Form rivalries, fall in love, but isolation is frowned upon. If you feel bored, THEN START A CONVERSATION. You never know where things lead.
4. Post different ideas for the hierarchies of Heaven and Hell, like races of Demons, or Seraphims vs. Cherubims or, hell, Valkyrie. Do NOT turn it into an argument about religion, because I would rather this be a wonderfully mashed lump of goodness than dedicated PURELY to one religion.
5. PG13, but nobody really cares about that.
6. Guns are something I'm limiting to non-apprentices, AND WITH GOOD REASON. Example conversation after rules.
7. You technically have two characters if you are an apprentice, since you will play your character and your Badeel, BUT your Badeel is not as important. If we split into two groups, one with humans, the other with Abdal, we will only post about the humans until the two meet back up.
8. You may not interact solely with your Badeel. Humans are important. Socialize with them.
9. No limit to people in the RP. :3
10. Coloursfall is Co-DM. OBEY.
---
EXAMPLE FOR THE GUN THING:
"Well... Why can't I use a gun?" You ask, confused. "Seems like if demons don't have them, we should take the advantage." The Badeel only scowls at you.
"You can defend yourself with a blade. Use a gun, you take away protection from the helpless humans with every round fired. You will not rob the other humans of their only safety measure by using ammo that could have been in their clip."
So there. :p

FORM:
NAME: Derp.
GENDER: You don't know this, and we've got problems.
AGE: Between 15 and 25. Maaaaybe you can convince me for a few extra years on both ends.
APPEARANCE: Pictures are wonderful. But describe nonetheless.
PERSONALITY: A few little words would suffice, for general ideas, and so would a three page essay. Take your pick.
BIO: Could be five sentences and brief, or you can be like Coloursfall and write a freaking novel. Your choice.
WOC: Weapon(s) of Choice. Guns restricted to non-Apprentices. Need help picking weapons? Google Deadliest Warrior.
BADEEL: Only for Apprentices. Briefly describe gender, appearance, and personality. According to what I've read, a Badeel's identity is known to God and God alone, so they don't have names. If you give them a little nickname, that's all right, but keep in mind, they wouldn't use it among other Abdal, instead calling each other "brother" or "sister."
OTHER: Any relationship requests, little details, questions, suggestions, etc. that don't fit anywhere else.
