I've been in a gods mood lately, but I'm gonna do it anyways.

Basically a minor god and a demon king work together. So- yeah.
I would like to play the minor god, but I can play the demon if needed.

BASIC RULES: PLEASE READ

  • I am better at writing LGBT+ relationships, it's just easier for me? So this will probably be mlm or wlw (nonbinary, genderfluid, etc are more than welcome)
  • If smut becomes a thing, it will be moved to pm. Let me know at the beginning of the rp if you're okay with this or if you want to skip it.
  • This will be bloody, gory, there will be mentions of sensitive topics so please for the love of god tell me what your triggers are. I don't want to hurt anyone.
  • If I am not familiar with your style of roleplaying, or it has been a while, I will ask for an rp style.
  • Please no one liners, I'm not a huge fan of them. I understand if you're tired, or not up to it. Your replies can be short but please don't make it a habit. I would like this rp to be descriptive if possible.
  • Don't be a dick, I think this should be self-explanatory. Your character can be a dick, but not you.
  • Have somewhat decent grammar? Okay? Okay.
  • If you have an idea, let me know! Chances are, I'll want to hear it!

I'll post my character once roles have been decided, and we'll talk about a plot. I have a few in mind.

(Of course! Should this one work?)

Justine swallowed her nervousness just enough to find the words to answer. “Victor, yes, w—I know of him.” She was careful not to include William, whose image had apparently captured the creature’s attention. Tucking the boy slightly farther behind her, she glanced back to the man? No. The Beast standing before them. Her bottom lip quivered uncontrollably, even as she tried to hold it still between her teeth. “He isn’t here, though. Are you a friend of his? And can I have your name, if you please?” She went through her questions almost by rote, trained and versed in the chance that a stranger approached William.

William impatiently tugged on Justine’s pant leg, and when she didn’t answer, decided to be helpful. “Oh! I-I know! Victor’s my big brother!” he chirped before Justine could shush him. “His room is beside mine!”

@lavender_ladybug group

Name: Dal'gan
Name Meaning: Respect, integrity, meticulousness
Age: roughly 700 yrs
Age Appearance: 26
Gender/Pronouns: Nonbinary; he/they
Sexuality: Grey-ace & panromantic
Aliases: Dal (Past lives: Isaac, Thomas, Deborah, Elise, Andrey, and he’s forgotten some of the earlier ones besides the first)
Birth/Death Date: November 30th 1200 a.d./November 29th 1938
Appearance:

Demon form - Sickly gray-looking, rough skin. Low brow and solid black eyes. Visible ribs protruding from his skin, though usually covered with a cloak. Lean muscle on his shoulders and arms. Veiny. His hair turns white and stringy like strands of twine. Black-and-white feathers speckled throughout the hair on his head.
Height: 7’4”
Distinguishing Features: some ashy lines under his jaw crawling down like dark veins over his neck and collarbone
Human form -
Decently tall and lanky with lean muscle. rectangle shaped face. feminine cheekbones. rounded jaw. thin lips. dark&almond shaped eyes. medium beige skin with cool undertones
Height: 6’1”
Distinguishing Features: crooked nose, very long dark hair reaching to their mid-back, long fingers, also really likes bows and hats

Personality: ENFJ (subject to change) with a dark side, but always some remaining personality traits from his past lives. Generally decent to most, if a bit untrusting and crude. Enjoys dressing up and attending social gatherings in their manor, especially with their cat cradled in one arm. In his own comfort space he can be quite charmingly empathetic. Can be a bit of a crow brain, collecting shiny yet expensive objects. Goofy flirt.
Number of Past Lives: Roughly 11, averaged living to old age each life, though there were some outliers.
Origin: (prone to changes, this is just what I could think of right off) Their father was an alchemist searching for a means to everlasting life. He made a deal with a demon by summoning one, got tricked by some fine print in the contract, and instead of the exact biological clone he wanted, he got a supernatural kid cursed to indefinite reincarnation. The clone, in his final life on earth as an old man got tired of living life after life, and found the demon who cursed him. The demon, named Izith, had pity and brought Dal down to the cursed realm, and helped them to the throne, overruling a tyrant (ironically).
Forms of Worship: Money and food offerings. Ballads. Sometimes people might try to summon them directly requesting a contract. Typically for dire circumstances or even those looking for petty wealth and fame.
Reputation: The Tyrant Killer. While he couldn’t kill an immortal, he did overpower the previous Demon King thanks to the help of the tyrant’s advisor Izith.
Powers: Shapeshifting (between a small black cat, demon form, and humanoid. The process between each is quite painful), illusions, alchemy-changing materials from one type into another at the touch of a finger (a step up from what his ‘father’ could do)
Talents: They’ve gotten pretty intricate with their illusions. After years of practice they can make a small tent appear large and luxurious inside, or make one animal look like another. The changes are not indefinite.
Hobbies: Organizing parties. Listening to music and stories.
Skills: Swordfighting. Illusions. Storytelling when he gets around to actually writing (which isn’t as often anymore).
Fighting Style: Bladed weapons: specially long swords and daggers in his human form. In demon form: archery, with the heads of his arrows tipped with poison or alchemy metals. They also wouldn’t refuse a long sword then either.
History: Determined as the story goes
Trivia: While he has several cats roaming the manor, his favorite is named Collyer, solid black with medium length fur and gold eyes, very long and lanky like Dal’gan.
They have a bantering and flirtatious sense of humor with their best friend, Izith. Izith is also their advisor.
Quotes: “I want to cuddle and have intellectual conversations with you”
“This place, it’s cursed.”
“Hungry dogs are never loyal”

He is a rock, immovable even in the harshest storm.

Ok! So maybe Dal could just be wandering around the mortal realm too, and they meet on the street or something? They could even form some sort of relationship while trying to keep their identity secret for a while? Until the truth comes out?
