"And so a dark form ventured from it's lair to prey on the weak and dislodge the grasp of light from this world and others."

Celisium was a beautiful ethereal plane with unimaginably large swathes of woodland, and tall spires of rock rising to touch the heavens. Renamed after the successful invasion launched by the young god Enendris, the plane had once been ruled by a powerful evil god that had been on the verge of defiling it beyond repair. The green covered spires had once been volcanoes of unnaturally active lava flows, leaving what was now forest as large black fields of rock. Smooth like glass and as reflective as diamonds, Enendris had used his newly found godhood to shape the land into it's current shape. After he reshaped the land he used his creative power to shape beings after his own form, the self entitled Endris then multiplied and covered the land. The plane of Celisium had been reshaped and recreated into an example of perfection, the question was whether or not that would last? Over the millennium many of the Endris had lost their immortality and were forced to eat the small animals that their god had created for them to survive. They found that water was now needed to continue on their existence, and that eventually they would cease to exist and become one with the land.
The remaining immortal Endris came to the conclusion that their mortal brethren had fallen from Enendris' favor, and so they shunned them, creating their own communities deep in the woodland away from their mortal kin. After many generations both races of Enendris had forgotten their link to one another, and small wars had broken out between the kingdoms of both the mortal and immortal races. For even though the mortals had lost their immortality, they had found that reproduction was now far easier and frequent, and so they grew to populate the lands below the mountain and before the forests. They settled near rivers and created large villages, which were then included into their various warring Kingdoms.
Eventually it came to pass that these mortals were named the Drahl, with their immortal brethren the Endris having named them in the ancient tongue, after their word for the fallen children. Though Enendris had wanted to interfere directly with his creations he could no longer for with the Drahl turning mortal his plane had shifted into the material realm. He was then forced to follow the law of the old gods, and only interfere indirectly. Through the years he had taken on the vessel of an avatar to walk the plane he had created, whispering ideas into the right ears and taking a small role in the direction in which his creations prospered.
During one of the many years Enendris stood guard over his large mountain hold built into the largest spire in all of Celisium, the young God had become aware of a schism occurring in the fabric of his plane. One of the many facets of the planes wall had become corrupted by a dark and powerful entity, and Celisium was now in danger of the influence of some new mysterious force. The god feared that his realm would be invaded, but he was forced to wait to see the facet would hold. Unfortunately he was not nearly old enough to perform certain tasks only appointed to the greatest of gods, and so his ability to repair the wall was not yet earned.

OOC:
Basically I've decided to create a setting of various planes much like those found in D&D and it's derivatives. Eventually individuals will be able to apply to roleplay as their own gods, but this roleplay will center around Celisium, it's mortal/immortal races, and the gods involved in a coming conflict. My plan is for the facet of the plane's wall protecting it from intrusion to be broken, and that a great host of demonic beings will enter Celisium with the intent to invade, subjugate, and destroy it's current occupants. You will take on the role of a Darhl, Endris, or one of Enendris' "helpers." Copy and paste the below application into this thread, and I'll create a IC thread for the RP once enough people apply. I'm leaving a lot of creative freedom up to the people who participate. So feel free to come up with your own back story involving the setting, etc. I will mention that both the Drahl and the Endris look much alike. With the only difference being that the Endris tend to be darker of hair and fairer of skin. They're both human in appearance but of a taller and hardier breed. I'd prefer if appearance images for the sign up were not anime as well. I don't mind graphic art but the constant manga/anime I see gets annoying. xD On a parting note Enendris' helpers are much like lesser gods or what Christians view as Angelique beings. They have free will but are fiercely loyal to their god and father.
