[/align]
With Shinigami defeated, the cities across all the lands were finally free to do what they wanted. The looming threat over all life as they knew it was eliminated. But if there was anything taught during the age of war it was this: "The threat never truly vanishes."
Shintaion had returned to order, the city borders established with parchment rather than bloodshed. The continents around the world were being explored and delegations between the Underworld and the Surface had been wrapped up. The jurisdiction of all this fell under the single most politically powered being in the world, Alastor. His knowledge of the Forbidden Beasts' government, the code by which the Dark Beasts lived, and being a demon himself had helped promote him to be ruler of Coltier. Yet, as his kind hand swept the nation, he soon found a needle amongst the hay.
A powerful religious movement had taken Southern Shintaion like it was meant to be. They were called The Saints of Meno to those that had respect for their leaders and the religion itself. Those in opposition to them called them cultists, a rapid fad being used to control political agenda, etc. In all ten years of Alastor's new world he couldn't shut down the movement. First it claimed Lynor, then Faris, eventually Serenda was to follow. The only contact in the south was the home to the morphling, a media producing creature based on their abilities to change into people and objects.
With no legal bounds broke but his power dwindling smaller and smaller Alastor needs a third party to intervene in the workings of the suspected evil cult.
-----------------------------------------
As you probably figured out you'll be signing up to be part of this third party. Now most will be explained in the first post but I can do a bit of explaining here to save a bit of time. This group is made up of people detached from the government but still for it. In other words there will be no military backing to this so NPC's won't be as easy to slaughter as in the past. Sure we have our "god" moments but this is a slightly more realistic version. Other than that here are the character sheets you'll need as well as some information as to what Forbidden Beasts are.
Name:
Age:
Specie: (Demon, Elf, Human, or Forbidden Beast)
Appearance:
Equipment:
Abilities: (This is where you list the general description of your powers. Things like elements can be manipulated many ways and what your proficient in should be written here.)
Personality:
History:
Humans: Magic and trickery.
Elves: Specialize in magic far more than humans, beasts and demons.
Demons: Wielders of weapons primarily, channeling their magic/abilities into weapons directly, enhancing them(Ie: Making an axe grow larger in size, empowering a knife with fire)
Forbidden Beasts: Masters of elemental energy but varied in terms of speed/strength and other abilities depending on race.
And a small explanation on Forbidden Beasts.

And a small explanation on Forbidden Beasts.
King Weavel said:Forbidden beasts are best described as people with some beast like traits and behavior. They walk up right. They have tails. They have claws in place of nails. They are cold blooded creatures and have live young.
They are able to use elemental energy based on what type of beast they are (IE: Ice beasts use ice energy). They attack by forming weapons out of this energy(IE: Light Spear, Ice Hammer, Fire Claws) and can also use projectiles like beams/blasts with it. However, this energy is not infinite, it can run out and once it does, they are left to fight the battle without it. It is replenished by rest/eating, thus beasts must manage their energy carefully so as not to run out during a heated battle.
There are 8 breeds of Forbidden Beasts: Fire (Survive and easily walk through Lava), Wind (Able to fly with their wings and have lungs capable of surviving high up in the sky), Earth (The most defensive of the beasts, very sturdy skin), Ice (Can also use a mild form of healing but more physically weak than the other beasts), Water (Can easily survive and breathe underwater with their gills), Thunder (The fastest of the breeds), Dark (The strongest in terms of physical strength and able to command versatile dark energy) and Light Beasts (Light energy and the most powerful healing abilities).
They are rather civilized and friendly creatures despite their name but they do have beast like habits and prefer to speak in an animal language of barks, grunts, roars etc but they DO have the ability to speak English. As of late they have become more humanized so as to communicate with the other races.
Their culture is one of respecting and paying tribute to nature as they draw their elemental powers from it. They prefer to live around nature (IE in forests, beaches for water beasts, high altitude mountains for wind beasts, etc) but many now live in cities, towns and villages no longer being as feared as they once were. They also have much more respect to females of their race than humans do, thus both genders are more equal in Forbidden Beast society.
They were once feared for their power, hence the name Forbidden Beasts, creatures considered unholy. While most of this fear has gone away, the dark beasts in particular still seem to strike fear into most average citizens.
