THE DEBUT OF THE DARKSOUL LJ

[birthmural]

Look at me. Now look at your character's soul. Now back to me. Is your soul puny? A wimp? Does it lack the smell of sulfur? Does it need adventure, bloodlust, and all around carnage?

NOW IS YOUR CHANCE, MEATSHIP!

Soon, I'll be aiming for the 14th or 15th, Daimon's darksoul will be let loose. It'll be going around possessing people, only to be forced out or leaves voluntarily as a brigade of exorcists chase after it and try to get it back in Daimon's body.

If you want your character to be possessed by the darksoul OR to help out exorcising people and then sealing the darksoul away forever until the next Daimon plot, please let me know! Questions welcome.

What's Daimon's darksoul? It's a demon soul. It is pure evil and very, very violent. Fortunately, Stacy will recognize the situation for what it is, and no violations will be given to anyone possessed.

How would this cause characters to act/feel? At first, the person is totally against it and fights back, and so it IS like being possessed. But the longer the darksoul stays in control the more that real person is subsumed and perhaps even start to enjoy it. At this point, the darksoul starts being affected by the person's history. So if the host is pissed off at character Y the darksoul will start to feel that and might even track them down to hurt them. While you can fight the darksoul, eventually (sooner rather than later), they will be corrupted and will be lashing out and everyone and everything. Hitting on people can also happen, though Daimon's darksoul is more violent than lustful.

If you volunteer I'll be sending you more information. I'll give a brief run down of Daimon's darksoul personality, because it doesn't completely go away. But it will mostly be you writing your character as evil and with Daimon's powers (which are rather strong even though he's nerfed).

The longer write up of the plot is here

Please note that because I don't intend for this to be a big plot and want it to run over a week, if there are a lot of volunteers I might not be able to get all of you possessed. Sadly, I am not legion.

Edit: It's important to note that if your character is powerful on his/her own, I'd advise that you NOT volunteer them. Because the darksoul is super powered and will take a lot to contain. I don't want any murders and HUGE chaos to happen. I promised it wouldn't be game wide.

And derp, I forgot. Magical/demon fighting characters wanted for the exorcism. It's pretty dangerous otherwise.

Victims (not in order of possession)
1. Howard the Duck
2. Sasami
3. Kaylee
4. Cagalli
5. Aibghalien
6. Eva
7. The Doctor
8. Beastboy
9. Hiccup
10. Roxanne Ritchie
11. Kanaya

Exorcists/Helpers
1. Dean Winchester
2. Sam Winchester
3. Kang
4. Celena
5. the Medic (I think that's the character?)
6. Mei-Xing

Nonpowered/magical people can also help out but on an individual basis. Like "Oh Sasami, I will save you from this evil thingie!"

If you really want in for possessions a few slots should be open but we're reaching the limit there.

So interested in this. Having possessed him once before, the Darksoul may even be inclined to seek Howard out?

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

Not so much on possessed end, as tempting as it is. (Still keeping up Dean's record of never been possessed and he nearly went demonic on his own already)

Definitely on the exorcism end with extra potential as being Michael's true vessel.

[chosenfamily]

I know it was mentioned in chat, but Sam's right there with the exorcism part, too. :)

[saint-sami.livejournal.com]

I'm interested in this myself. I'm tossing in Sasami to get possessed.

Who wants to deal with an eight-year-old with a Darksoul? :D

[hit-girl-mindy.livejournal.com]

I am SO up for the rage directed at Hit Girl.

These two are DEFINITELY having conflicts soon. You'll see.

[nanochist.livejournal.com]

HELLO you don't know me, but an eight-year-old girl is probably the only host to this darksoul Kai here would have a problem fighting. Would you be up for making him feel horrendously guilty and conflicted?

[voiceofserenity.livejournal.com]

I am terrible and signing Kaylee up for possession.

[bonnypiperlad]

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

[governorkang]

...uh oh.

[allnaturalseed.livejournal.com]

I'm interested, though I'll give priority to people who've been around.

Definitely interested though.

[for-magic.livejournal.com]

Do we really want the wizard possessed?

Because if we do, I'm SO in.

Eat fireballs, meatship!

[birthmural]

About how powerful is Aibghalien?

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Can we volunteer badass normals for helping with the exorcisms? If so, I'd like to volunteer Eva. Possession and coercion have special interest for her.

If not, well, she can always stand to be traumatized a bit more.

[birthmural]

Eva can try for helping distract the darksoul so they can get to it, but other than that I think the darksoul is too dangerous to help with the exorcism, sadly.

[makeherblue]

...This interests me more than it should. I'm really tempted to also volunteer the Doctor up for possession.

[birthmural]

I'm not very familiar with Doctor Who but as long as he's not too powerful then sure.

[changelingdude.livejournal.com]

So popular already!

Room for one more in the "Helpless victims of darksoul" category? I'll understand if you're full up, but I figure this would be an interesting method of unleashing Beastboy's "Beast Within"

Too bad he doesn't have anyone he's particularly angry at.

[i-saw-myself.livejournal.com]

If there's room, evil Hiccup? :D

If not, s'cool. I've been in a lot of plots recently. I just...even for five minutes, that'd be hilarious.

[neveradamsel]

...Would you like a Roxanne?

[staturity]

Yes, I do believe there's enough room for her and possibly a few more.

[alwaysamoirail.livejournal.com]

I'm willing to throw Kanaya into the potential-possession pile. She may be a bit too powerful for it, since she just spent the last chunk of her life chainsawing various monsters to death, but, you know, thirteen-year-old with racial tendencies towards callous violence and some unresolved emotional issues? Awesome possession fodder, clearly.

[birthmural]

It depends on her inherent power and skill set. If she depends on using tools and weapons like chainsaws, and it takes a good deal of effort to kill things then she's fine. If, however, she's got innate powers that she can use to zap things from a distance or really knows how to use a pitchfork trident then there might be problems.

[nanochist.livejournal.com]

I may be a little late for this, but honestly, Kai's already violent enough that he doesn't need to be possessed. However, can people without magical/exorcism abilities fight it? If so, he'd be so up for pounding the crap out of a super powerful magical entity and wouldn't have any qualms about fighting someone possessed by it.

[birthmural]

If Kai has pretty strong powers or is able to use tactics to keep from getting hit too bad. The problem is the darksoul is pretty dang powerful as is, but if I don't get too many more volunteers for the exorcism group then I'll open it up to people without powers and we can just figure out a way they don't get badly hurt.

Unless you want them to. I know I'm a sucker for hurting my characters, so...

[governorkang]

...offering Kang up for helping with exorcism. He's got a spell or two that could help with restraining.

[curiousredsoul]

Offering Celena up for helping with Exorcism. She can help in restraining him in a number of ways, strong telekinis, fields even physically if needed, as well as use of her energies to aid others in their attempts.

[uebercharge.livejournal.com]

Hrmn. No helpful spells to offer, but may 8 seconds worth of absolute invulnerability be of any assistance?

[birthmural]

Ohhh, yes. I imagine that will.

[killsfengshui.livejournal.com]

Well, of course Mei-Xing is offered for possession. You still want to go with her doing the initial mistake that frees the darksoul from Daimon?

[birthmural]

Definitely.

I think if Mei-Xing gets possessed then it'd have to be pretty short since she's pretty powerful, right? So maybe for a minute or two to taunt Daimon before having to switch bodies because Daimon's too close for comfort.

Will she be helping clean up her mess?

[dearest-nehaa.livejournal.com]

Offering up Nehaa for whatever you need.

...

....Wow. That sounded wrong.

[birthmural]

I have a few things in mind, bb.

Oh yeah, the plot.

It'd be helpful if she could be on the exorcist brigade and help seal the demon inside the statue. You could also have her possessed if you want to add to trauma.

[tweedywatcher.livejournal.com]

Can I throw in both my guys? Tobias for possession and Giles for helping?

[tweedywatcher.livejournal.com]

If not, I choose Giles, to help with the possession, btw.
