[ You sit on a soft, slightly damp white mass--a solid cloud keeping you up in the sky. Beneath you stretches the village you saw from the Ring, but this time, you can also make out the tiny forms of all the knights. You know it's them, even though they're too far away for you to make out details. ]

ROUND ONE

[dramatispersonae]

Below you is a village that has fallen on difficult times with the coming of the Darkness to this world. Everyone there has to work hard to survive. Their only reprieve is that they are watched over by guardian angels who keep the Darkness at bay. You control one of those angels.

[UH]

Keep it at bay how? Smiting it with blasts of holy fire?

Re: DISCUSS

[masterofmystery]

Well, if it's the Darkness it's more about feelings and friendship and all that...

Re: DISCUSS

[dicktionary]

I guess it depends on how biblical we're going.

Re: DISCUSS

[inviseyeble]

Is that really the important part here?

Re: DISCUSS

[ . . . ]

I dunno about this one.

Re: DISCUSS

[inviseyeble]

Well this time we're supposed to protect the knights, right? Usually knights protect others and this time it's the other way around.

I don't get the designing an angel part as much...

Re: DISCUSS

[pitching]

I vote a lamp.

Re: DISCUSS

[inviseyeble]

What do you mean? An angel that's a lamp?

[confused]

Re: DISCUSS

[dicktionary]

A lamp.

Re: DISCUSS

[sheardelight]

That's thinking too small! Make the lamp like, a thousand feet high. Or make it a miniature sun!

Re: DISCUSS

[masterofmystery]

Why not a step further and make it the sun?

[ Name and describe your guardian angel. ]

...

[pitching]

Our guardian is a giant 1,000-ft tall floor lamp that hangs over the village. Despite its size, it is lightweight and cannot actually crush people if it falls over. In fact, it can even fly because angels can fly.

It gains power from friendship, love, warmth and hugs. ALL POSITIVE FEELINGS. The more feelings it get, the stronger it becomes. With enough power, it eventually turns into a sun that can shoot out rainbows at the darkness. Despite it's kickass abilities and personality, it is also gentle and as friendly as a guardian angel would be.

It's name is Sunflower Phoenix. Names are important! So we decided to go with a little bit of the naming themes that we follow and also what it reminds us of.

The misty light over your cloud brightens as you describe your angel.







But not as much as if there really were a giant 1,000-ft tall floor lamp around.

ROUND TWO

[dramatispersonae]

[ Beneath you, a wave of shadow rolls across the little town, obscuring everything but the tiny, distant forms of the knights. ]

The village has fallen to the Darkness. Its guardian angels may do their best to save its inhabitants.

VILLAGERS

[dramatispersonae]

1. The Knight fights to help others survive.
2. The Watchman has the duty of watching for the Darkness from the outskirts of village and doing everything they can to stop it should it approach while alerting the villagers. They do this because they wish to keep their friends and my family safe and because fighting against the Darkness is the only way to survive.
3. The Soldier doesn't really have any special reason for fighting, so they do it for whoever's next to them.
4. The Magi watches and guides the flow of energy in this world, whether that energy is light or dark; this job can require them to be anywhere and they have a reason to keep going because of it. They don't mind the fighting part at all.
5. The Knight or the Idol has never been anyone important until not long before they came here and doesn't think they're anyone important here, either. They have no reason for wanting to survive and help other people; they say they don't need one.
6. The Assassin believes that sometimes someone has to be willing to get their hands dirty.
7. The Supporter doesn't really have any particularly useful skills, and they can't fight on their own. The things they do are just helping others. They can cook and repair things and shield people, and they'll also help people with whatever they can do, if people ask for it. There's nothing really else the Supporter does or wants to do.

We can sort of guess who is what, right?

One point each to assassin, idol, magi, and supporter!
