Every day he sacrifices a small goat to the eldritch god Lrg'ynuv, He Who Reeketh of Dei-Olde Halibutte. He does in the hope of achieving everlasting unionship between his forehead and his pelvis, so that they may someday achieve greatness together.

Fair enough, so. I guess you could say that!

Anyway, here's the first batch of the afterlife's denizens.

Quote from: The Afterdark
Requiem

The king of the Afterdark, he is the one who oversees the souls of the sinful. He comes across as cold and distant, though in actuality he is quite a nice person, far from the evil being he is often interpreted as. He seems offended by the belief that he is an evil or sinister person. He is very strict towards the souls in the Afterdark and holds little to no remorse for them. He considers them wrong-doers who deserve to be punished for their sins. He employs and is the superior of Dirge and Nocturne. Though he is the counterpart and brother of Serenade, the two rarely speak to eachother.

Nocturne

The emissary of the Afterdark, he is the one who collects the souls of the dead. He is a raven-man who is always followed by a flock of ravens, who are tasked with carrying the soul to the afterlife. He is a cool and level-headed individual who has a whimsical wit about him. He is quite fond of mortals, and since he spends a lot of time in the world of the living, he is able to see them regularly. Unlike his master, he doesn't hold sinners with contempt at all. He is totally loyal to his master and gladly does his job without question. His counterpart is Sonata.

Dirge

The ferryman of the Afterdark, he sails the souls of the sinful across the River of Sorrow. He is known as "The Glum Reaper" because of his melancholic nature. He tends to ramble on while he rows his boat, often talking about the afterlife, his job and having to work with the dead all the time. Though he is in a perpetual state of gloom, he doesn't have a problem with his job - it's just his personality. He is sympathetic to the dead souls, even though they are sinners, and doesn't judge them for their actions in life. He has very poor luck, or so he always says. His counterpart is Harmony.

These three belong to the Afterdark, the afterlife where wicked and sinful souls go. The Afterdark is a vast, almost barren land full of withered trees, gravestones, twisted landscapes, bones and pools of sinister red water. It's always night here, and the moon is always full and covered by hazy fog. However, despite what some people might expect, it isn't a place of punishment - rather, the wicked souls spend their afterlives here in a dark, dreary and miserable place with no hope of escape. Only people who really and truly repent and aren't beyond salvation can have a chance of going to the Afterlight.

Coming up next - the overseers of the Afterlight.

Nicest? Hahah, oh no, not at all! He's nice to his minions, sure, but that's because they're all violent booze-hounds like he is. He hunts outsiders like animals when he's bored, if he doesn't blow them to smithereens outright. That and he has enough firepower in one arm to level a city block or raze a whole forest in one go. =P

Updated it with the final two Demon Lords and the secret "extra boss". n_n

I'm thinking of sketching them as well. Would anybody want to see what they look like?

Also, stay tuned for the next group in this mythos, the denizens of the afterlife!

Don't worry, I'm still here, and better than ever. What's done is done, and I'm not going to dwell on the past, just look ahead for a brighter future. ^w^

And now have some more character ideas!

Quote from: Demon Lord of The Abyss
Demi

The gatekeeper of The Abyss. He leads a small legion of demons, though he himself is under the authority of the Demon Lords. He likes to think he is very diligent, but the truth is easily distracted. He is quite lax towards his subordinates, believing he is enough to keep the gates protected, but he is usually too distracted to notice people getting in. He is very embarassed when people get past him and vows to be more careful, but he usually forgets about it very quickly. Though he is quite powerful for a normal person to fight, anybody with their own powers would find him easy to defeat.

Beelzebub

The Demon Lord of Gluttony. He lives in the garbage dump of The Abyss. He appears as a large, bloated fly demon. He is always hungry, and he mainly eats rubbish he finds and outsiders, though his hunger is rarely satisfied. His mandibles, stinger and saliva are highly venomous, regarded as one of the strongest poisons in the world. Though he is strong, he tends to overstate his abilities and thinks quite highly of himself. The other Demon Lords don't take him very seriously, something that annoys him greatly. It's often said that he is "too fat to fly", even though this is not the case. Because he has no arms, he picks up and eats things with his proboscis-like tongue. He controls poisons and toxins, mostly in the form of fumes and slime.

Valefor

The Demon Lord of Greed. He lives in the mountains of The Abyss. He appears as an insectoid demon wearing gold armour. He is very sly and scheming, and he is always trying to trick people - including the other Demon Lords - out of their belongings. Rather than devour outsiders outright, he prefers to gamble with them for their soul - though as the stakes get higher, he tends to include the person's friends and family in the gamble. None of the other Demon Lords trust him, and given his habit of trickery, it's with good reason. He can be bribed to let outsiders go in exchange for all of their wealth. He never gives away anything without getting something in return. He controls wealth and fortune, and he is able to change a person's luck as he chooses.

Belphegor

The Demon Lord of Sloth. He lives in the sea of The Abyss. He appears as an aquatic demon with an octupus-like head. He spends most of his time sleeping, letting his demonic minions take care of things for him. He becomes very angry whenever he is awoken for any reason by other people, but when he himself awakes on occasion, he is usually very apathetic and uncaring. He generally only awakens to feed himself or survey his realm, and if he is satisfied, he goes back to sleeping again. Because he lives underwater, outsiders the other Demon Lords are hesitant to approach him themselves, so his realm sees very little action. He controls the sea and the aquatic forces of his underwater kingdom.

Lilith

The Demon Lord of Lust. She lives in the crystal palace of The Abyss. She appears as a beautiful woman with an elegant gown. She is the only female Demon Lord, and all of the demons in her realm are attractive young women. She resides in her palace made of and surrounded by crystalline ice. Her demonic minions are known to seduce and overwhelm outsiders, male and female, and bring them to Lilith, who either takes their soul or makes them her slave. Though she is sophisticated and elegant, she is also very seductive and flirtatious. She and her demons are known to suck the life out of outsiders with their fangs after they seduce them. She controls lust and beauty, and she can charm others into following her orders.

Nemesis

The Demon Lord of Envy. He lives in the dark void of The Abyss. He appears as a dark mist covered in eyes and claws. He is the most mysterious of all the Demon Lords, and even the others know very little about him. His mere presence is known to fill people with dread. His realm is shrouded by shadows that can't be illuminated, and so outsiders tend to get lost there very easily. He enjoys tormenting outsiders with ominous voices and visions before devouring them. He says very little, and nobody is quite sure of his motives. He rarely emerges from his realm, and only does so for very important reasons. He seems to enjoy watching people suffer. He controls shadows and can drive a person to madness with his powers.

Asmodai

The Demon Lord of Wrath. He lives in the inferno of The Abyss. He appears as a large and monstrous demon with a cannon arm. He is very rough, rowdy, boisterous and aggressive towards others. His favourite pastime is battling his demonic minions in his realm, and for this reason it looks a lot like a battlefield. He doesn't take things very seriously, especially outsiders, and is known to laugh madly when he's amused. He enjoys drinking strong alcohol and his ability to handle it is legendary. His demonic minions are more like drinking buddies to him than servants, and as such they respect and admire him. He likes chasing outsiders through his battlefield as a sort of game. He controls explosives and has a variety of destructive weaponry in his arsenal.

Mefistoph

The Demon Lord of Pride. He lives in the ivory tower of The Abyss. He appears as a handsome man with a red suit. He is the de-facto ruler of The Abyss, having claimed power after the great war a thousand years ago. He is suave, sophisticated and charismatic, but also very sinister and inherently evil. He always considers himself before others and tends to manipulate people and events to his advantage. He is held with particular contempt by the other Demon Lords, but they grudgingly accept him as the leader in order to maintain some semblance of order. He watches over The Abyss from his luxurious tower. He carries a red book with the names of all the souls he owns, and is especially good at tempting people to gain their soul for himself. It's rumoured that he desires to conquer the overworld as well, but nobody is sure about this. He controls devilish powers and has a variety of dark and evil spells in his book of lost souls.

Abaddon

The hidden monster of The Abyss. He appears as a monstrous locust demon. Known as "the bringer of destruction", he is a powerful demon who was sealed away in the deepest pit in The Abyss. He is feared by the other Demon Lords for his destructive powers, and they never speak of his existence. Rumour has it he is the manifestation of the destruction experienced during the great war of The Abyss a thousand years ago. Though he is spoken of as a great and powerful monster, he is actually quite a manic and sporadic individual who is none too pleased about being sealed away. Despite his bitterness towards the Demon Lords, he is not really an evil person, he just thinks spreading chaos and wreaking havoc is fun. He controls destruction and ruin and is always followed by a horde of ravenous locusts.

These are the first five (not included the "intro boss") Demon Lords in an idea I had for a place called The Abyss, a hellish underworld ruled by powerful demons. Each Demon Lord oversees a seperate section of The Abyss and their own legion of demonic minions. They despise eachother and are constantly squabbling with eachother for supremacy, though some semblance of order is maintained by Mefistoph, the Demon Lord of Pride and de-facto ruler of The Abyss. I'll update it with the remaining two Demon Lords, Asmodai and Mefistoph, once I finish their bios.

Enjoy.

You think I don't know that? I'm sorry, but I don't need anybody telling me how to pursue my dreams. I never asked for any challenge. I was just saying something that I now greatly regret.

I wish I never brought this up. Every time I open my mouth I just get myself into trouble.

I'd re-tool Roy, but I don't know enough about Fire Emblem to do so.  I was hoping you or some other FE fan would do it.

I don't know much about Fire Emblem, but my brother is a huge fan and he has assured me Roy rides on horseback in FE6 like Eliwood in FE7. Makes me think his Final Smash could involve him calling in his steed and ordering a sudden onslaught of troops to charge forth and unleash a massive assault of cavalry, arrows, spears, etc. on the opponents.

No, I mean wanting to be the best.

I know it's stupid and egotistical and stuff, but it's the one thing I had going for me. It's the one thing I had to aim towards. I can't draw amazingly like other people, I can't sing, I can't dance...all I can do is write. Without that, well, what do I have to strive towards? I don't show people my poetry in real life because most people don't understand it and I feel like a pretentious worm...I only show it here because I feel people can understand it better. It's not just a hobby, it's an outlet for my feelings. Sometimes it's the only thing that helps me not crawl into the corner and just cry in frustration. Besides that, I can't stand being part of the crowd. I want to stand out and make myself known in a unique way. I can't do that in real life because I'm restrained and people make fun of and bully me for it, so I have to do it here, online. I've never really been known for anything before, and if I could be known and remember as being that one really great writer, well, that would make me happy beyond words.

I feel like I've betrayed myself. I made a promise to myself that I would always follow my dreams and never give up hope, just like my avatar character would do. I made him not just because I wanted a powerful hero to star in my stories, but because he represents everything I wish I was but that I'm either too weak or scared or pathetic to become. I promised myself I would never give into despair and that I wouldn't let other people get to me, but look at me now. I feel empty inside over something as trivial as a little healthy competition. I feel stupid and whiny and selfish and disgusting, and I feel like I've betrayed my own ideals and done myself a massive injustice. I wish I was more like Lucky Starlight or Bon Jovi, somebody who doesn't let stuff like this bother him and who overcomes their personal demons and makes themselves known. But I'm just some guy who fancies himself a writer, and it's moments like that that really drag me down. Realising that I've forsaken my ideals more than I'd like to admit makes me feel empty and horrid inside. It's times like these I just want to break down and cry I know I can't win everything, and I accept that. I don't want to win everything. I just want to be known for something, but maybe that's just me being a selfish, greedy little fuckstart again.

And in the morning I'll feel fine again and forget about all of this [parasitic bomb] until it comes back to bite me in the ass again. Sometimes I wonder what I even bother for. Then I remember why. And then I forget again. It's a viscious cycle of idealistic dream-pursuing and being dragged back down to earth again, and sometimes I feel like hope itself has betrayed me.

"Hell would be easy if not for hope."

No, I wasn't going to enter, I was going to host it and see if anybody would enter and...

Oh, forget it. It was a pretty stupid dream anyway, and life seems to enjoy showing me that following your hopes and dreams is a fool's game anyway. I try to prove it wrong, but what do I know...

Didn't you say in the other topic you were thinking of putting on a little writing contest? You got a participant.

Well, thank you, but I only have two in that case. I'd need at least four or five for a proper contest. And even then I'd probably need permission to host something like that.

Dud? What competition? :P

Well, one of the main challenges is actually getting recognition. That's not very easy, since I don't draw OMG FANTASTIC ART like most people here do. I paint with my words, to flog an old saying.

my boyfriend got drunk with another girl and never came home last night
i found out that he was never home this morning
i'm a bad person and i deserved this

You aren't and you didn't. He sounds like a douche to me, that's a pretty horrible thing to do.

You could always have googled it. =P

I could have, but I chose not to. It's not that important, I was just kind of curious.
