The Raven

[Spiritfox09]

I posted this story last year around Halloween and never found the right fit for it. So now that Halloween is coming up again, I find myself once again craving to give it a go. If you're interested, please PM with any questions or suggestions!!

The Raven [MxM]
   I've developed a craving for a RP based on "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, or more accurately, the musical rendition of it performed by Omnia. I would like to begin at the beginning and follow through the poem/song and continue after its end.

   My character, the raven, visits your character in their chambers and the poem unfolds until the end:
Readers are lead to believe that the man perishes, general consensus is a heart attack. This is where the tale deviates. The man blacks out then wakes the next morning to find a handsome, twenty-something young man in his room who claims to not only be the raven, but a demon! The blackout was a result of the demonic bird binding your character's soul to his own, but for what purpose..?

   This is just a rough idea at this point. I would love to iron out details with my partner! I would prefer your character be an older man, perhaps early forties or so. My idea is that the raven needs to bind himself to a creature of the mortal plane in order to maintain his foothold there. He was drawn to your character because he sensed the faintest flicker of magic within him. Whether your character has magical ancestry, is part fae, or just a random blip on the magical radar is up to you. The raven chooses him because he think he can bend that magic to his will, but what neither of them counted on was just how powerful your character will actually become once the dam holding back his power is ruptured. The demon soon finds himself in a power struggle with the person he thought would be an easily manipulated pawn. Who will come out on top..? Hmm....
