This is still a bit of a work in progress so I love questions like this.  It helps me to get my thoughts in order and all that.  Ok, I do see comedy coming into this and light hearted romances and stuff like that, but it will be dark and horror filled as well given that I referenced movies like Paranormal Activity and the Exorcist.  The setting itself, Hell I mean, is indeed Dante's Inferno/Castlevania like, so you have the right idea in that sense.  As for the school, it's more a college for learning the ins and out of demonology rather than any history lessons.  It's more practical lessons on how to torment the living and drag them to Hell through sin in general, if not outright possession and the like.  So yes, evil Hogwarts sounds about right lol.

We might be playing as demons of Hell and all, but that doesn't mean they can't have human desires and feelings either, hence why I say that this can contain comedy and light hearted romances, among other less scary things.  However, given the setting it's not something that might happen a lot and it might have to be worked towards, which in my opinion just makes it all the more worthwhile lol.

I added some pictures to my profile information.

Since we are using headers in our posts, I will go ahead and change the image of my appearance if at some point I'm forced or feel the urge to change hosts.

Beautifully done Red.  I cannot wait to get this going.  Tomorrow after I get back home from my first day on the job I'll get a few of the threads going, the class rooms themselves I am still waiting to hear from our teachers yet unless they just want me to make them anyway.

#84
Name; Griffith Serpico
Known as DeadBird
Gender; Male
Sexuality; Pansexual
Age; Actual age is 58 while his human appearance is around 18
Appearance;
Default demonic/human form


Griffith is shown as a slender young man with black hair. His most notable feature is that his eyes are closed at almost all times, except for when he is very serious. He is often compared to a bird such as a bird of prey due to his large black wings and eyes when they are open. For any other notable features are his black raven feathers which have an eerie self light about them. Most of the time he is known to wear black long clothing that does not give and wind resistance when he flies about. One last thing is the large scarf he insists on wearing.
Real demonic form

Like other large demons, he does not wear much clothing, DeadBird exposes the numerous red tattoos across his chest. Instead he wears a Breechcloth; all of which is white, and a black sash around his waist. His overall appearance, mannerisms, and battle style are highly reminiscent to that of a Native American Brave's; emphasizes this resemblance more clearly. He has long black hair and the mask of his takes the form of a beak like helmet atop his head which is as if  mixed with a hawk and a raven. Most of his body is covered with black feathers except his chest, and lower torso.
Race; Avian (The male equivalent to Harpies)
Birth Circle; Limbo 1st
Abilities;
Flight
  Very simple has the ability to fly vast distances. Its is not know if he has to flap his wings constantly or if he gets tired from doing so, but it is certain that his wings are his most common use for transportation since it involves little use of his body. When asked why he does not use other means he will tell them that 'Why waste the gift I was given to soar through the air just to walk along the ground with you?'
Rebirth
   His final ability allows him to be reborn if he is injured beyond repair by 'impregnating' an enemy or unsuspecting person. When he has physical contact with the victim he can implant a portion of himself inside their body. He then 'devours' his way out of their body, by way of absorbing all the fluids and chemicals of the victim killing them in the process, like an insect leaving a cocoon or husk when he matures and develops his body back in a matter of seconds from a liquid-like casing coming from the victim's mouth.
Powers;
Devouring Feather
   The wings can shoot feathers, but unlike normal feathers, these are as heavy as steel and can regenerate rapidly after being tossed. He can fire them with semi accurate, be it directly at the target or the surrounding area. They are strong enough to pierce through through rock with ease if hit twice.
Ravening Wing Wind Shield
   Ability to ward off attacks with a flap of his wing, dissipating the attack or blocking it. Works fairly well with physical attacks, but those of magical premise such as binds spells, and some elements as well. Fire is the easiest to dispel since he is in tune with the wind.
Spuming Rapacity - Still in development
He also has an additional ability to split his wings into two pairs for increased maneuverability, this is triggered when he slices along his chest tattoos with his talons to draw spiritual energized blood, allowing for the alteration. This also gains him a more intricate and detailed mask. His strength increases even further allowing him to shrug off the effects of possessing considerably more weight then his wings normally have on their own.
Scrape the summit-Transformation to full demonic form
    In his demon form, he transforms into a Humanoid bird, he has an white mask over his head (with the inside of his beak his mouth is visible) with black streaks running down it, his black hair extends to an extensive length. His body is covered in red feathers and his arms and feet become bird-like with sharp talons, as well as large bird-wings from his back, and his chest is left exposed and covered in various tattoo markings.
Possible Club Interest; Book Club, Chorus, Music Club
Personality;
Default form
Griffith is continually focused on his goal of achieving his dream of obtaining power, willing to sacrifice anything and everything to achieve it. From birth he had always 'known the way up, allowing him to command several soldiers with his charismatic ability. To this end, he sees companions as objects rather than friends. He initially appears to be composed, but this is a facade. While acting cool and collected at first, clearly enjoys messing with others and when riled can seem to be a bit maniacal. DeadBird seems to be quite deductive and analytical, being able to guess when something is wrong with another. This stems from his belief that life is "nothing but a sequence of difficult problems", and one's ability to make correct choices decides their fate.
When in Real demonic form
He is extremely violent, impulsive, rude and impatient. Before engaging in battle he performs a "ritual" which consists of him screaming all the things he is going to do to his opponent, while demanding they do the same as a way to psyche each other out. He becomes quite annoyed if they don't do the same and he will angrily and, comically, scold them. Like his fellow demonic kin, he holds his the Dark Lord in high regard and refers to him as 'His majesty'. He has far less restraint than any other demon when like this.

Background Information:
He'd once been called The Hawk of Light when he was brought to the mortal plain. A saviour to a dying world, yet he was not the salvation God wished upon the world he created and damned him a monster altering his form to one of a monster laying the mark of a beast upon him. His once angelic form did not shine through and those that sought comfort to him turned there back, and drew their weapons killing him despite his good intentions. Griffith had been captured, after which he was imprisoned and tortured for years. He was rescued by those still faithful to him, but was already physically crippled with the tendons in his wrists and ankles severed, tongue cut out, wings torn from his body, and mind broken. When seeing even his faithful worshipers walk away from his state it finally drove him insane in his final moments before the Eclipse, he dreamed of a normal life. Despairing the loss of his dream at Gods influence, his state of madness that coincided with both the reappearance of his lost wings and a solar eclipse. Lucifer appeared, and he sacrificed the ones that once worshiped him to the dark lord to became a demon. Since he only did so due to his insanity he'd been betrayed by those he cared so deeply for it was only right that their spirits followed him into Limbo as small ravens that would follow him through out his existence in hell.

When first brought to hell he'd been reverted back to an infant to resemble the many unbaptized children the reason behind his was to make him more accustom to his demonic powers. Being reborn with this new found power caused his new body to alter into something more suitable instead of a large humanoid bird.  As a 'child' appears only at night or in shadow, as other demons do, drawn inexplicably to the human world since his circle is already so close to the human realm.  Within the realm of Limbo DeadBird found something within the center of it. Another creature called the 'Idea of Evil' that wandered each circle. The Idea is a large mound of flesh which resides in humanity's collective unconscious. It responds to humanity's need for a reason for suffering, manipulating human affairs and controlling humanity's destiny. It is a common consciousness that transcends individuality, acting as the ego of the world. It refers to itself as "the ideal god of this world."  The Idea's structure appears to be that of a heart covered in eyes, drawing thoughts and feelings in and out like blood.  This is supported by the fact that the openings on the Idea resemble heart valves. It told him many things as Griffith kept it company. One of the most important things that he remembered was that the Idea of Evil claims that it was created from the negative emotions in human hearts rather than being a natural part of the world.

Thanks Drake and Scar buddy, you still need a background and a better personality but otherwise it's pretty cool as is.  The ritual thing he does made me laugh a bit as well lol.

Do you really want a 1:1 student/teacher ratio? It just seems like you're going to have a lot of bored teachers sitting around while all the students are in someone else's class...

Vergil1989

Well, maybe not then since you have a point.  Crap then.  I'd still like at least five teachers but maybe eight students, ten tops so a total of fifteen people if we get that lucky.  If not then at least one more student and then we can call it a day and get this Damned show on the road lol.

Why don't we just start and integrate the extra student and teachers later. Its a school so I don't think it would be hard to have teachers and students coming and going.

My concern being that its been my experience the longer you wait to start a group game, the worse chance you have of keeping everyone who signed up originally.

Alrighty, and to that end I already have an OOC up in the Extreme forums, I just need classrooms and stuff from our two teachers we have currently.  As it has been mentioned before, we will be going to Earth from time to time so if you want to make a few NPCs for that or for Hell, go right ahead and do so.  Beyond that I'll get the roster moved over to the OOC and get the main areas set up here soon.

One more teacher and then the rest can be students, so yeah, if you're cool with that Kdyami.  The OOC link though for those that are having trouble finding it is on the first post on the first page.  Anyway, beyond that I'm trying to figure out a way to either find a good floor plan for the student quarters which I think should be Co-Ed, as well as the Baths and stuff as well.  Beyond that the teachers will all have their own bedrooms in their classrooms which as previously discussed are their personal pocket dimension which can be accessed by the right doors located throughout the massive SIN university castle.  This is in the OOC as well but just wanted to leave it here as well.  The Roster has been moved already and I'm also in the process of creating the Main Hall/Dining Hall right now.  To sum it up, the castle and everything around it is a Gothic's worst possible nightmare lol.
