Sanctify
The Daemon's Revenge

Their numbers had been cut into the hundreds five years ago when the war between the supernatural ended. The Daemon (and some Angelus) chose side with Jacques Baptiste, a move that proved to their detriment. In the following years, bitterness still lingers though many more daemon have had the sense to leave well enough alone. It was not until the woman known as Zoelle Bruel came into the public fold that the movement towards vengeance was born. At the moment, this is still a quiet revolution. Her band "The Razor's Edge" travels from town to town, collecting more and more members to her cause.

While it may seem as if their plans are somewhat cut and dry towards revenge, this plot is far more complicated than it seems. Zoelle promises vengeance but she will not say more than what she has already revealed. She and her followers are planting daemon spawn hybrid seeds in various places around the world. They are large, near bottomless pits where at the bottom of this tenebraen breed and fester into pinkish hybrid creatures. They are just as strong as vampires and lycan and heal just as quickly. They are mindless things, controlled by Bruel to do as she pleased. They are fed pure life and death energies to have their power grow, but this works over time. It will take 20 years, to be exact. Zoelle is a patient woman. After all, she's been at this game for years. She is the new incarnation of the Red Queen after all.

They get this energy by murdering Easterners, trapping their magic and souls in orbs to then toss them into the pits. Their magic is closest to the life and death energies needed to feed these creatures

Twenty years from now, the true extent of the plot is revealed. The daemon spawn hybrids begin to dig deeper, the life and death energies threading together. All of the areas in which these pits are located are strategically placed. When they become active, it will widen a hole that was created in 2007 by a Western man named Leonard Case. He wanted to find a direct link to the tree. He succeeded, but in return a small child was given instead of the power. This child was Abernathy Gray. Because of this, that small hole was left. In knowing Case, Bruel had become aware of this hole in the tree and began her plot to expand it, burrowing so that she could reach the dark energies of the roots so that the daemon inside could be free and their population replenished. They could then exact their plot for revenge, but Bruel didn't account for the fact that this in itself would begin to make magic and the universe unstable. In twenty years, magic will implode, starting with the death of an older Abernathy as the tree begins to rot and corrupt. Then, one by one the transcended fall. The Awakened begin to slowly drop dead at random, followed by the Hunters, the Lycan, the Vampires and finally the Vierge.

The end of existence comes swiftly after that.

This is the overall story plot that players can pull from for the next while. I'm unsure how long it will be. Depends entirely upon the popularity. As to what players can do towards it if they're interested, here are some suggestions below.

What characters would know right now (Updated as progresses, so check back!).

-There have been a string of Eastern murders in the city for the first three weeks of May.
-A commune of Daemon have settled outside of the city walls. They don't allow access to many people. They're watched by the Ministry but they are out of the Unreal City's jurisdiction.
-Most Daemon who live in the city would NOT be aware of this plot.

What players could do.

-If you're an Easterner, role play out your character attacked or perhaps a loved one murdered.
-Bluecoats or Watchmen could be investigating the murders.
-If you are a Daemon, maybe you're actually interested in the evil plot at large, if so, PM endgame.
-Some of the kids from the future are here to save the day! Or make it worse! If you're interested in joining in, again, PM endgame.
-Again, all of this is on the player. Plot among yourselves and as long as people aren't intent on resolving it right away by having their characters know everything right off the bat or try and kill off (without my permission) Bruel, aka, The Red Queen, I'm fine with what people might elaborate on this story.
-This story might not affect everyone directly, but there are impacts in and around the city.
-If you have any comments, elaborations please respond in this thread or PM endgame. Thanks!
-Zoelle or The Red Queen will be an NPC. I'll write her up and people can use her as need be with permission. I won't be playing her much, just as NPC in my own posts and people are free to do the same.

Plot Update

For where it concerns future children, they should be back in their own time June 1. Both present and future run the same parallel of time. So when it's June 1st in the present, it's June 1st in the future. This is just a note for those involved because we'll be rolling over soon into June.

And just because they fix the hole in time and space doesn't mean they've defeated the daemon presence...

Plot Update

Speaking of the Daemon presence, for the June rollover I've set up (or am in the process of setting up), two posts...

1) Takes place in the present. It's an underground concert being held by the group of Daemon mentioned above. I made Zoelle a nice NPC account to host this thread with. They'll be sacrificing Easterners for fun. Not sure if they'll be caught yet. If you're interested, join in. It's located here but please post only after I post the second part which will be in the next day or so.

2) Takes place in the future. It's only available to players of future characters. It's located here. It's a party, open for anyone to join and perhaps at some point the party will lead to some chaos but depending on how the thread will go and who's going to participate I'll see in regard to that.

Both are connected through the Daemon group. A comparison of then and now, so to speak. Both of these are going on all month long, and don't worry about speeding your way to get into them. Join when you can, if you want and/or just do it.

If you got any questions, PM endgame. Thanks!
