First RP. Bear with me, here!
The Story
It's been thirteen years since 2011--2024--and things haven't changed much, anywhere. Technology has made it, literally, nowhere. Electronics followed this example. And, humans, being the privileged and spoiled race that we are, were extremely frustrated. "Thirteen years is enough, damnit!" were the exact words that started the riots. Of course, the techno-lag wasn't the reason for this. It was the perfect cover for a group of villains, The Weavers, to spread their cause and overthrow the government. Their goal has been a long-winded one, and started back at the time of the legends of King Arthur.
There was a small group of people back then, called, also, The Weavers. They believed that Angels existed, yes; back then they were known by these people as the Seraphim. But also Demons, creatures from Hell, with snow-white, masklike faces and torn, batlike wings. Of course, they hid these distinctive features by creating an illusory Seraph-like appearance--though they were still deathly pale with always ash-grey robes. Then there was the most distinctive feature of this old religion--the existence of Drachii, the basis of dragons and all creatures like them. Although, they were not believed to be dragons always--no, they could take on either a human-like or Seraph-like appearance also. Some of their believers said they were half-reptile, half-divine. Others said their secondary half was human. But all believed in one thing about them--that they could grant wishes. This, of course, was not true.
They were hunted. All of them. The Seraphim, as the Weavers believe, came then, down to earth from the holy heights of Heaven. They are said to have commanded the the humans to stop hunting the Drachii, as they were, in fact, half-reptile, but then they were a quarter human and a quarter divine. They brought them all together. All except the Demons. They were to not be reproduced in any form, as they and their originals would wreak havoc across all of mankind's walks. And so they left. But the Demons had other plans. They tempted the humans, hid among them, sparked the unholy fire in the pit of their hearts. They started the search again, and this time they had taken all but a few tens of families from each clan of Drachii. And it is said that one pregnant Drachius from each clan lost her baby, and then the babies were combined in the highest heights of Heaven to create the Page of the Dragons, as they called it--the Silver Drachius, as it--or she--was called by the Weavers. She was sent to earth, was raised by each of the clans, and then, when she was thirteen, she had to make the decision to either save the Drachii or join the Demons and humans.
She made the wrong choice. She joined the Demons, slaying what remained of each of the clans--all except one family from each. The Seraphim had preserved one family from each clan in Heaven, just in case this were to happen. After the Demons left, unknowing of the Seraphim's deeds, and after the Silver Drachius died, the Seraphim sent the Drachii down to the earth. They were kept in secret, and the Weavers were dispersed, never too be heard of again, or, at least until now...
The Seraphim have created a new Silver Drachius out of the ashes of the old one, and he is now nearing the age of thirteen. He is wise beyong his years and have all powers of all Drachii. He still is battling with himself, and he doesn't even know what he is or what he can do yet. The Seraphim, Demons and Humans are all fighting, and even some of the Drachii.
Basic Plot and Player Jobs
So, you are either a Drachius, an Angel (called a Seraph, if you wish), Demon, or Human. It's a modern-day environment and you're either with, against, or don't care about the conflict going on around you. You'll have to chose a faction which corresponds to the legends--Humans, Drachii, and Seraphim are against, while other Humans and Demons are with. Humans or Drachii can be neutral, but Seraphim (angels) are always against and Demons are always with. The setting will be voted upon by VM to me; Los Angeles, California; Tokyo, Japan; Paris, France; London, England. Of course, your character can still be from wherever you want, and we will be speaking as if we know the country's native language. The Weavers are consisted of a small number of Demons and a large number of Humans, and they are at the center of the revolt. So, yeah.
Drachii:
A Drachius's job is to stay hidden until called upon or, if you think you are a normal human--the Drachii eventually wandered into human life; family meant nothing to them, for they wandered off when they were born and eventually were led back to another Drachius of the same clan, and therefor they could inbreed and have perfectly normal children--try to fight the revolt or, yet again, just sit there, not knowing who you are. After all, they do have divine blood. But, anyway, you're either against--or don't care about--the revolt. I will talk to you explaining when you will and need to change into your draconian forms. There are six clans, not including the Silver Drachius;
The Earthborn (Power over the Earth and Rocks. Also Ghosts)
One Spot:
The Verdant (Power over Plants and Light. Wandering, harmless Spirits are welcomed and controlled by them)
One Spot:
The Aqua (Power over Water, Ice and the Cold)
One Spot:
The Pyro (Power over Fire, Magma and Heat)
One Spot:
The Lightning (Power over Electricity. Especially fast)
One Spot:
The Aero (Power over the Air. Especially nimble)
One Spot:
Humans:
Simple, pretty little jobs; with, against or don't care about the revolt. You must help fight the revolt, fight with the revolt, or just sit there and watch the world fall apart before your eyes. The latter must do something to help someone at one point, though.
Spot One:
Spot Two:
Spot Three:
Angel/Seraph:
You are fighting against the revolt. You will also, at one point, call the Drachii together, after conferring with Him and thinking that the Page needed guidance. There is only one spot open, and I am looking for an exceptional Sign-Up for this position, as you will control many NPC's and be the only of your kind.
Spot:
Demon:
You will be the head of the Demons, the right-hand man of the unspeakable himself. You are to fight the government and the Angel, wayward Humans and Drachii. You will hunt down the Drachii, one by one, in the beginning. As with the Angel/Seraph, I am looking for an exceptional Sign-Up for this position, as you will control many NPC's and be the highest Demon.
Spot:
Sign-Up Sheet:
Name: A little obvious. Don't be ridiculous.
Age: Preferably 12-19. It's no limit, but again, don't be ridiculous. Not required for the Seraph or Demon.
Gender: Obviousness.
Personality: At least 1 big, juicy paragraph and one small one, or 2 if you want me to know more about your character. At least 2 for the Seraph and Demon.
Appearance: Same as Personality. Drachii will describe wings and draconian appearance.
History: You can keep it brief; no one likes these.

Seraph and Demon can do what they wish with this as well.
RP Sample: If you think you need it, although it is recommended.
We'll start as soon as there is one Human, four Drachii, and the Seraph and Demon. I will act as the game master in the RP, and control important NPC's and another surprise NPC...you know who it is.
I know I've done a LOT here, and I know I'm requiring a lot of you guys. I'll appreciate patience and understanding and politeness; I have the stress of school.
