I've got two different plot ideas and I'm wonder if anyone is interested in either of them or if one sounds better than the other. I have them both under the same page due to them both having the same power source to get weapons from.
The idea for this one is that humanity is currently on the edge of extinction because of demons with human weapons doing very little to stop them. Not until a human realized that one can create a weapon from a demon heart. Now the humans are fighting back to drive the demons out once and for all. The setting would be more post apocalyptic with different missions to do and there could even be demons who help out humans in exchange for things like favors or working with them to take out someone who is a threat to them.
The other idea is that at the bottom of a labyrinth exists a town. There are people who've been exiled there yes but there are also citizens who were born there and only know of that kind of life. Over many generations various kingdoms have put their criminals and undesirables there, not to mention there are those that use it to get rid of garbage. No kingdom is even aware the town exists as the portals to enter are monitored and only exist for one way travel. The rule is that if you can get to the exit, then you are cleared of whatever crime was committed. However getting past the demons that live on each floor is not easy to do without a magic weapon. There is hope to get out though. If one can get a demon heart, it can be made into a weapon. The setting would be more of a fantasy one and the players here would all be apart of an exploration group going to find a path to leave.
The power system I have in mind is that if a person makes a weapon, it takes on the properties and power of the demon it came from to a lesser extent though. However for the daring you can take a risk and consume the heart itself but there is the likelihood that the person dies so its rare to see someone do that. When the latter happens than both the person and would be weapon are fused with the weapon taking over a body part. It is more powerful but it has dangers to it, there are those that gain a more demonic appearance or find that they need to perform a certain action like blood letting to keep the demon blood from hurting them, the issue is different depending on whoever they are. The ones that do eat the heart cannot eat more than one while the people who have the weapon can use multiple. In the the first world, the ones who eat are kind of like pariahs as they are viewed as someone who gave up being human. That means that there are those who won't trust you at all. In the other world if you eat a demon heart, it means you resign your fate to living in the labyrinth forever as demons cannot survive outside of it.
