Lazy Overachiever
Just to be clear, this would be a slow moving, post once a day max type deal. Maybe twice on the weekends. Ideal for those with busy lives or looking for a roleplay to fill the empty gaps between replying to other roleplays. I'm a busy, busy bee, but roleplaying is my escape so I do what I can. Also I may be new to this site, but I am not new to roleplaying, so I'd say my expectations of the roleplay would have it be classified as Intermediate.
Right, so this is set in the near future in a world that has been devastated by demons, vampires, and other dark creatures. We had once armed ourselves with the tools and rituals described in ancient folklore, but as the dark creatures faded into the background, hiding away from the ever growing human population, we humans became lazy and disbelieving in the existence of demons and monsters. We made ourselves vulnerable, and they attacked, massacring us in large numbers.
There are only a few thousand of us now and we struggle to survive as these monsters continue to hunt us by night. There is one solace for us. Jerusalem, a city considered holy by the three major Abrahamic religions, is an impenetrable sanctuary as demons and other beasts with blackened hearts can not trespass on holy ground.
There is another rumor though. One that tells of a messiah to be born against all odds and bring an end to the demons' war on humanity. Over the years however, many have lost hope for this, as a child hasn't been born since the take over began. The demons have seen to that.
There will be three forces driving the characters: survive the nightly hunts, make it to Jerusalem, and protect a young pregnant woman in the off chance that she might be carrying the fabled messiah. There are obviously religious elements to this story, but religion will be treated more like folklore and a tool against the enemy.
Speaking of which, the creatures in this world are as follows but are not limited too: demons, vampires, werewolves and witches (both evil and good), apparitions, poltergeists, banshees, etc. Think of it as an "all-Hell-broke-loose" situation.
So, yes, I guess in layman's terms, this would be The Walking Dead meets Supernatural with a touch of Practical Magic, Blood and Chocolate, and Full Metal Alchemist (yes, there will be alchemy). Rules and guidelines would be provided for a clearer understanding.
Questions? Concerns? Ideas? Do I write to freakin' much?
