Chapter 1: The Sorceress and the Knight
It was a stark and twisted morning upon the dimension known as Makai. Connected to an earth very much like many throughout the Multiverse, it was a world in perpetual shadow. Ghouls, ghosts, nightmares of every description was the lot of this world. Many called them monsters.
Here, they were known as Darkstalkers.
And among their number, famous among them was Morrigan Aesland. Thanks to her powerful connections, she managed to pull all manner of strings on behalf of the Multiverse Emergency Unit: A coven of female mages, demigods and more that dedicated themselves to multiversal arcane threats. And there were so, so many as it were.
From the Archdemon to the Mindless Ones, to the forces of the Adversary of the Homelands to the Ruinous Powers. Where theres a wand, there is a way.
Which was why, after being transported to Castle Aesland, both chosen agents after a night of rest would awaken to a butler, an imp who would bow and hand over a folder respectfully.
Opening it would reveal the following.
[This is an IC Method to write out your profile for the other without needing an OOC thread.]
First was a picture of the partner in question. This one was a tall man. Clad in ecclesiastical wear as a lay priest would, a black longcoat over it all and a wide-brimmed hat. Of the sort favored by traveling priests in the days when the Western States was yet to be tamed. A silver cross dangled around his neck and in his handsome features, gleamed eyes red and bright that seemed to stare through the medium and directly through the one looking at it.
A little caption would reveal his name, as well as a concise assessment.
Father Lucifer Matthias Anghelscu.
Records from the Division on Fallout Alpha indicate him as a primary figure in their attempts to seize that world. Was officially recruited alongside Elizabeth Comstock(KIA) two years later. Was promoted to agent status swiftly and has since worked mostly as a protective asset for MEU agents.
Received the bulk of his training from an alternate Burial Agency of which the traitor Kotomine was also once a part. Possesses powerful vampiric blood in his veins. His task is to act as physical protector and partner in your investigation into Darkstalker Activity.
So much for that. As to the mission, straightforward enough.
The Darkstalker Tournament is a local affair. No longer. New sightings pop up every day, new demons and other creatures meet in clandestine meetings and there is talk of invasion. Discover the truth and prevent this demonic cold war from spilling into a live one.
Principal names among the powers entering their champions are Dormammu: Lord of the Dark Dimension, Samael: The Blood Prince and the Necromancer Liliana Vess. Good luck. How you deal with this, will rest on you both.
