(In best intrests, lets start our chars in say, New York City)
In the year 2037, The vatican suceeded in shattering the invisable veil surrounding the earthm throught the cracked barrier, the first of what claimed to be Holy Angels came fourth, stepping for the first time ever freely on earth. Hailed as the savoirs of humanity, the churches ranks, swelled to Unparalleled numbers. In the following years, the Angels though few in numbers began a crusade against any unbeleivers, bringing swift death to those who lacked faith in northern Africa and southern europe.
However all over the world, those aligned to earth magicks, particulerly, Wiccans, druid sand other pagans, began to feel their own magicle powers soar. Some began to Mutate as well, some growing wings and claws. The Vatican immediately called these people Demons and began to outcast and kill them off.
America, now a great paganized nation stood defiant against the Vatican, But Angels snuck past her defences and began to seek out the biggest threats.
The year is 2045, America is at War aginst the Nations of the Holy Order, mainly southern Europe and nortern Africa, with only Canada and Mexico for her allies. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhare on the plains, two figures, a male and a female, lookeded up into the Night sky. The Female and shook her head sadly. The Male looked to her unblinking.
"Well it is time, to rally the guardiens, and fight the war, send out the call to each city, to gather the pagans"The male advised and then both faded away. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in europe somwhare, An angel wearing a white silk down, that fell to her, ankels, walked through a giant pair of doors and then walked down a long hallway upon a red carpet, her heels making clicking noises each time they struck the ground, her long brown hair cascaded down her back in radient volumes, that seemed to frame her face perfectly. She quickly aproached the pope, no one moved against her even when she stepped closer then useual.
She then kneeled before him and bowed her head, her long pink nails resting against the ground, as her feirce blue eyes looked back at the pope.
"Sir, i have scouts hideing in america, those with true power, shall not get far, The order of the pentagle shall never rise" She said her tone though almost song like radiated with sheer hatred at the order. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
A Young Woman, no older then Forteen stood alone in the park, enjoying the warm summer air. She did not look like much at 5'3. her knee length light blue dress clung to her body, showing off her patite figure very well, its sleeves were nearly transparent, her blue eys matched the dress well though they gave a look of uncertainty. Her long blue hair fell to her ankels, a side effect that had ocurred over the past few weeks not that she minded, she rather liked the effect it had and the look it gave her. Her Light pink lips reflected her uncertain eyes as she looked around, waiting for somthing.
An Angel watched her from in the trees, a bow pulled back, aiming for the girls heart, this would be easy.

The Dweomerwoman felt the danger to the girl. Elideth, hidden in the shadows of the trees, took her own aim, and loosed the arrow at the hidden Angel. Guided by the wildfolk, the arrow flew straight and true. At the same time, Elideth cast a circle of protection around the girl, calling on the Lords of Light to protect her.

::Samhain ran like the wind. She called upon the dark veil to hide her as she ran,a nd she continued to run like the wind. She couldn't lead the damn "holys" back to HQ. She was as good as on her own. The Holys had her Magickal essence down. They knew what it was. She couldn't Lead them back to HQ, she'd destroy the entire force. But She was a Sabbot. She could contact the others. She did so now.::
'Mabon. Mabon, its Me. Can you hear me?'
'Yes, Samhain, I'm here. Whats up?
'They've got. They've got my magickal essence. I can't come back to HQ without then tracking me back there. Tell the others. I'll keep in contact. They can't catch our mental wires because its a diferent form of magick, so we're safe. But I wn't risk contacting everyone. Only you and Beltain. He'll understand. Tell them I'm send the god's blessing. and the next time the Goddess adn God come to HQ, ask them for my protection. I'm going to need it.'
::She cut the connection with Mabon. She knew the woman would tell the others. Samhain ran on a few more yards then stopped dead. She had to get away. She'd escape, simply. Why hadn't she thought of it before? She'd go where they holy's can't follow. She'd escape not her own domain. Where until the god returned, she ruled. She'd cross over the veil. Into the afterlife.::
''Through the new year, through the veil. To the dead, where all prevail."
::She was gone. One second she stood beside a rose bush, the next she was in a swirling darkenss. The afterlife for thoes who still have reincarnated lives left. They couldn't follow her here. She was Samhain, She was the new year, and she guarded the veil and land of the dead when the god was in one of his other cycles. the darkness gone, she set foot on soft sand by an ocean. The entrance to Summerleand.
With the god and goddess on Earth, dealing with the holys neither were in Summerland, the final afterlife. She'd been given extra duties to guard Summerland as well. She made her way to a green medow of tulips. She sat cross legged and begain meditating.
Perhaps a description of the Sabbot would be ideal. During this war, the beings chosen as sabbot embodyments were born on that day. Samhain had been born on October 31st as Alexandra Knutson. She was seventeen. She had blond hair to her hips, with black streaks. Her eyes were ice blue and she'd always been deathly pale. She was 5'11" tall, and preferred a combintation of gothic and punk style clothes. Now she wore black Vans on her feet, baggy black bondage pants, and a red tank top with a black penticle on the chest. Her eys were lined with black liner and mascara, and shadowed in dark blue. Her lips were blood red from her lipstick. her hair was down and blowing slighty with the Summerland winds. She wore red, blue and balck jally bracelets on her wrists along with a red and black spiked wrisband,a dn a blue watch. her ears had several piercings each,a dn on her neck she wore a pagan cross, cresent moon, and a silver ankh with four pink letter beads, two on either side. The letters spelled out Alex. This was Samhian. The open minded new year. This was her current body. And now it meditated, thinking of where she would reenter earth.::

The Angel moved at the last secound, her swift angellic speed however did not entirely save her, as the arrow ripped through her right wing and continued on into the tree, The Angel looked back at her new attacker, said nothing, however she again moved on the first girl, this time, forming a sword from her own energy, the blade was white and had a clear defiant glow to it. Suddenly, upon feeling the circle cast, she shifted direction flying high up into the air and aiming her sword at the newcomer from twounty feet in the air, she then fired off a few bolts of raw burning holy energy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fouteen year old stumbeled forward, and the circle shatterd from within, the girls shadow was twisting and reshapeing itself forming horiffic forms as it went, and at each one the girl screamed, her eyes went black, and suddenly her aura flared into visabilaty as well, a black firey aura that sent of powerful waves of wind, Then, Two silver eyes apeared in the aura, as the girl continued to scream, whatever wa shapponing was clearly causing the girl enourmous amounts of pain, her aura suddenly formed two long black wings, that flared out, and then sunk back into her aura.

Elideth gritted her teeth. Reaching into the Aether, she fashioned herself a sword, this one golden, pulsing with the light of her own aura. She ran to the girl, and swiftly laid her hands on her, channelling her forces , calming the girl's spirit. Looking up, she saw the angel above her. Calming herself, she took on her bird form, a golden hawk, and rose up into the sky. This angel would not take the girl....not the way her own parents were taken.

::Samhain scanned the land of the living. Trying to find a place where she should come out of death. She found it. A young girl. one who should have been on her side was in danger. Someone batteled a holy to protect the girl, but there was another one in hiding. behind the girl. Samhain opened the barrier and crossed over.
In the land of the living samhain just appeared out of no where right in front of the girl, who screamed.::
''Please, sshhh. I didn't mean to frighten you. I'm here to help y...look out!"
::She threw the girl to the ground and in that movement, she recieved a firery angelic blade into her left shoulder. Samhain swore as the weapon was drawn out of her.::
'Great. One more scar on the left side of my body.'
::She thought remembering the four scars on her left cheek. The symbol of the fourth embodyment of samhain. Samhain stood, and drew her own sword. Given her by her grandfather, the sword was approatly titled "Angelic Blood Lust".
She stepped over the girl, who was still on the ground, in a protective manner. Across from her, the angel of vengence him self, standing with his flaiming sword.::
"Its good to see you agian, Bartleby. I see you've not been long in your god's good graces, seeing as just a few short years ago you were still banished."
"Move out of my way Samhain. A girl of seventeen cannot take on the powerful Bartleby. You will not win. Step aside,a dn let me at the girl."
::Samhain pretended to think about it.::
"No, I don't think I will. You see. I know that you're sent to destroy the more powerful demons, as you call them. Well, if I could never beat you, then one is as good as handing herself over to you, isn't she? I'm not moving. You'll get her over my dead body."
"Fine. Then I'll get rid of you both."
"Lets dance you and I."
::She says mischeviously, and makes the first move, pushing the Arch Angel back, away from the girl. So now on the scene were two battles. One taking place on the ground, and one in the air, for a single poor girl stuck inbetween.::

"All right, my friend." Elideth, in her bird form, circled the angelic form. "If you want to play..." She flexed her talons and let out a cry, a sound that chilled the very air around her. Golden talons and feathers flew as Elideth made contact with the angel. Dancing across the skies, the two forms were interlocked in battle, until Elideth broke away, silver laughter rippling throiugh the skies. The angel, wings broken and face covered in blood plummeted to the earth. Elideth circled, watching the scene below her. She saw Samhain appear and heaved a sigh of relief. Dweomer though she was, two Arch angels were more than a match for her. She watched as Samhain pushed the Archangel back and let out a cry of triumph. Her gaze strayed to the girl on the ground. Landing behind Samhain she resumed her mortal form, grabbed the hand of the girl and pulled her away from the battle.

(elfdoughter, this is a serious RP, please DO NOT controll other people chars or NPC's, except for minor hits that wont cause damige and will not make them die, it is wrong in any serious rp. Im going to have to ignore most of the called hits and what not becuse quite honestly, their not fair to me. When you rp you send an attack at somone but you do not actually say what it does to the other persons charicter or how THEY block it. Sorry if i was harsh. I WIll be posting rules after i post however)
The angel spoke in a deceptively soft and melodic like manner that made it seem part song.
"I have no time to play"
The Angel hoever was surprised by the bird slipped aside swiftly, able to feel the wind from the birds wings across her face, she darted down quickly, thankful her partner had shown up. Landing she looked upon the girl's back and smiled widely, knowing full well why this girl was importent and what her powers were. If the Demons found out, she guessed they would eather protect her, or send her to their cursed summerland. The Angel stopped however, and looked back up looking for the bird, she knew the girl could not be dealt with at the moment, but the other girl could, while the third was ocupied. She folded her wings and kept her sword out, but she made no move gainst the girl. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The girl whose rageing aura still went on, finnaly was shrowded in darkness, her aura turned black as a moonless night, and began to expand throwing out a feirce gale force wind in all directions, her aura began to take form, this time the dark aura leapt a few feet above her, and formed a bird like beak and two pitch black eyes, also a tail began to appear behind her, and Talons around her feet, Again she screame dout in pain, though the pain was not physsicle, it felt like an entire world was pouring through her brain. her vistion was clear but she saw nothing of the fight, instead she saw endless blue clouds she could walk on, and swirling white vortex infront of her, holding her still, no matter how much she tried to fight it, she was even unawhare she was screaming.
"pleae, stop........no......stay.............you can't" her babeling took place on earth as well as in the astral.
However, her aura quickly began to disspate first turning from black and slowly growing clearer, her eyes were already shut, the talons, beak, eyes and tail all began to slowly suck their way back into her aura, though not entirely gone, her aura still gave off pulses of wind, though now they were gentle and calm with only the frequently at which they blew as an indacation they were unatural.

OOC: Elfdaughter, I'm sorry. I'm not trying to be mean, but as mod of the Holodeck 1 boards I have to point out that god modding isn't allowed. Especialy when it comes to killing someone else's characters. It isn't fair to the what so ever. Its Silver's character, and you simply cannot kill it off like that. Unless you have her permission. Simple forms of god modding such as *the two exchanged blows with no real damage* is okay because its nothing super important. Also it would have been okay for your character to simply stop fighting and help the girl. As it is, I'm going to back up Silver's decision to void most of the "hits" as well as the "death" of the angel. I'm not mad or anything, but please remembr this in the future. Thank you
~Alex~
IC:
::Samhain and Bartleby fought, pushing eachother back and forth. Then the Arch Angel left himself wide Open, and Samhain took the oppertunity to swing Angelic Blood Lust right between his ribs. She sliced his about three inshes deep, between his top two right ribs. She smiled triumphantly as she withdrew her sword. He couldn't weild his sword with a gash that deep into a muscle he needed.::
"You are mine, Samhain! I vow right now, before Heaven and Earth, that your death will be come from my blade!"
"If you wanted me dead, you would have killed me already."
::Bartleby spread great white wings and took flight. Samhain turned around to see where teh girl had gotten to.::

Why do you think my posts have been so ruddy tentative?? I did not say that I killed the character, I left it deliberately left it ambiguous. The blood could have been my blood for all you know! I'm a member of many RPGs, so don't tell me about Godmoding. There's also something called 'paying attention to other people's characters and making them feel part of the plot.' WHERE did I say I killed the angel? "Wings broken" yes - but the last I saw, the Angels had powers too...why not levitation, or healing? I did not say I killed the character off, nor did I say the blood came from the Angel's wounds - I did not say the angel was wounded at all, except for the wings - but that was ambiguos as well - 'wings broken' could mean anything from fractured bone to crushed feathers - and the latter is more likely considering I was in a bird form. If we're in ranting mode, I would appreciate some interaction with my own character - so far virtually everything has been ignored.))

ooc- Takes from your post - The angel, wings broken and face covered in blood plummeted to the earth.
So your already stateing the angels wings are broken and since you took controll of a char that was never yours and never decribed any of it, or for that matter any wounds on your char, it seemed you were trying to imply it was a part of MY chars broken wings, eather way its still godmoding. Also you managed to calm my charicters aura, again controlling myc har to make her aura calm down, again godmoding though one i wa sletting slip, and you were included, thats why atatcks were sent your way.
In any case theirs no need to talk of this further, eather you can rp without godmoding, or not rp in the thread. sorry to sound harsh but as i said it is a serious rp.
edit- as for the comment on the angels powers, maybe he did have some, but regardless it still does not give you the right to call the hit. And alot about your charicter was ignored becuse alot of it was called hits, which are void in decent rp. Also wings broken would not useually mean a few crushed feathers, you stated the wing was broken, when you say somones arm is broken it does not normall mean they mildly cut themselfs, the same aplies for a wing.

So you're implying that I can't 'seriously' RP? Fine. To be perfectly honest, it's a weak RP anyway - especially compared to what I'm used to. Actually, all the RPs here are weak, apart from the Mystic Tavern. At no point had you actually made it clear that your characters were not puppets. I assumed they were, however, I was still tentative to avoid Godmoding. Just what exactly could I have said, without making it into a one or two line post? And as I said before, I left it deliberatly ambiguous so you could take it either way. I do not appreciate getting ranted at and being told I can't RP. Perhaps if you'd actually posted dome interaction with my character, this wouldn't have happened. Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I'm going to have to leave the site for a while to calm down, otherwise I'll end up saying something I regret.

(((OCC: I read through the post....and what incrediable writings going on.....I don't think elfdaughter was intentionally godmodding, she was just trying to be creative and move the story along....so, I implore you all to please continue the civility and continue to have fun....please don't gang up on her,....and in the future...sweet elfdaughter just for future post to avoid any misunderstandings (as I think this is all it is) ...just ask if its okay...in most cases I dont think anyone would have a problem with it...but like you, some people take there RPG seriously, I dont think anyone meant any ill will....you are ALL just strong minded, well imaginative and extremely good writers....so everyone group huggles....I dont want to to have to come back in full swing and find everyone not having fun. ....

The girl stumbeled once, her eyes closed and her arms hanging limply at her side, she looked asleep and about to fall over. But suddenly she turned around, her eyes flareing open, and her hands spreading out. She began a chant in a lanquage unknown for many generations. From the cloudless, blue sky lightning shot down into the ground and, each began drawing a half circle around the girl, each bolt going in a diffrent direction, when the two half circels met, the lightning drew another circle this time the circle was merely inches from her, had she moved she would have been hit, as it was she was not even awhare of what was going on. When the two inner half circels met, the bolts jumped to spots inbetween the circle and began drawing a quick set of symbels, within aminute the bolts went back up, and, the girl was thrown from the circle and into the air like a rag doll. The Circle beginning to swirl and glow, even as the girl soared unconsciously. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Angel had watched the circle form with a look of horror on her face, her fears seemingly confirmed, she lost track of the strange bird she had fought before, far to lost in the dance of the bolts, she dared not enter though having no idea what spell was being cast. She took a few steps back, spreading her unmarred white wings to their full length, readying for flight. She was obviously nervous, her freind was gone. Sher froze a bit as the girl was tossed from the circle, away from her, and torward the Demon who had fought her partner. She looke dup into the sky and tried to check the bird girls location but again just could not seem to find her, so she then flew forward hopeing that the two demons would not get to the young girl before her, they were both strong, she could tell. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The circle was spinning rapidly, within the inner circle a black vortex had appeared. The rest of the circle began to glow brightly sending off all sorts of colored flashes. The outer circles light finnaly shot up in a cillinder shape high into the air.

::Samhain had turned in time to see the girl bring in the lightening. She had watched the rings of light form, as well as the symbols. Then the gril was thrown towards her.:: 'She's going way too fast. If she hits the ground her spine'll break!' ::Samhain ran forward to catcht he girl. Careful not to let her land on the sword that still resided in her right hand. She made the catch. The girl landed in her rams, but Samhain, expecting a heavier load had been balanced for a heavy catch. As it was, the girl was far far lighter than the seventeen year old embodyment had calculated. It thre her off, and Samhain nearly lost full balance, and almsot dropped the girl. It wasn't until after she'd caught her that she niticed the great collumn of light. She stared up at it wide eyed.:: 'This girl is it. This is the embodyment that we've been searching for! The one we need! And I've got her!' ::Then she saw the angel comming towards her.:: "White was night, dark as light, send this girl from my sight. Keep her safe, let her heal. To Sumerland for recovery and meal!"
::A black void opened up over the girl. the winds started bringing her up out of Samhian's arms and into the void that would send her to Summerland. Samhain watched as the Angel came in closer. Grr, she wished she could speed up the process of the spell, but she couldn't. THis was all she could do to save the girl. Hopefully she'd make it in before the angel got to them. Samhain stepped around the girl, between her and the angel. Even if she couldn't stop the angel, she'd save some time by making the Angel deal with her first.::
