My favourite roleplay scenarios:
Scenario1:
In a paralell timeline, unknown by our civilization, there is the Valthrasian Empire, that is the greatest and oldest empire ever build by man.
In its origins, the Empire was a cruel magocracy called Illmatter, on which the non spellcasters were nothing but slaves to cruel and ambitious mages. But, once day, a massive slave rebellion, with the support of nothing less then 9 gods from different lands and unknown origins, destroyed the magocracy, and started a new government, ruled by 9 Paladin Lords, each one lord of its own main city, and chosen of its own deity. While their personalities and objectives vary, the Paladin Lords all rule wisely and fairly…
However, recently, a dark force of colossal power, self proclaimed Kalthazar, the Dark Emperor, took over Dashville, the town dedicated to Stendarr, the god of freedon and knowledgeble. Not only he single manly killed all the city guard and the town Paladin lord, as he destroyed nothing less then Stendarr hinself. Since then, he has ruled a tyrant, executing all those that dare to challenge hin, and turning its guards into… Something… He also revealed to be the son of Mortus, a death god. While, in its origins, Mortus was the god encharged of judging the dead, and keeping the balance between life and death, over time, he grew greedy. He became obsessed with being the ultimate force in this world, and started to kill other gods and stealing their powers. Wherever he went to, he left a trial of nothing but pain, death, and despair…
But his rule wasnt entirelly unchallenged. A group of rebels, leaded mainly by the old priests of Stendarr, fight against hin, sabotaging his operations and tryng to throw hin off the throne. While they were unsucessfull so far, by some reason, Kalthazar didnt unleashed his full power against then…
Addicionally, with Stendarr death, this makes Mortus technically the patron god of Dashville, what means that, theorically, Kalthazar is its rightfull ruler. The Council of the Paladin Lords is still attemping to adopt a stance on it, but so far, they are just tryng to keep the peace and minimize the damage
Scenario2:
In the year of 2517, human technology reached levels previously considered impossible. Thus, it was just a matter of time until we would start to colinize other planets, and then, find intelligent life.
In the name of progress, mankind started to sistematically destroy other civilizations and take their planets. This caused the aliens to form a alliance known as the Defenders of the Cosmos, dedicated to stop mankind progress, at all costs.
This is where our story begins.
Scenario 3:
My name… Is Lucifer.
Yes, I am the one who you are used to refer to as Satan. But I am not, truly, the source of evil. The truth is something that, for long, mankind has forgotten utterly and completely… Let me tell you the whole story…
Before our creator first came to what would be his realm, there was another entity. As the so innacurate bible says, in the beggining, there was darkness… And there was. The darkness of a being of shadow, whos power can only be matched to the one of my Lord, and whos cruelty was so great, that it is simply impossible to even translate into a mortal language. Many names it gained… Me, sa many others, prefer to refer to it as Death. For it represents death of all hope, death of all beauty, death of everything of good or alive that there was…
But one day, my master came. And it came the First War. A war between light and shadow, on which such shadow was, with much effort, defeated. From that dimmension, darkness was vanished. And where there was only darkness… It came the Paradise…
Oh, the Paradise, the Creation, the pinacle or all beauty and perfection, the handwork of God hinself… Try to imagine, the most beatifull place, build by man or by nature, that you can. Now, try to imagine it improved, its flaws removed, its qualities increased, up to a level that mortals could barely imagine, much less improve.
Even this, would be nothing but a scrach, compared to the beauty of Paradise. You could feel the life of it in the air… We were all part of it…
But Death, while defeated and imprisoned, was still alive. And its servants were a threat to the Lord realm. That is why Godcreated the Guardians, the name given to the warrior angels who would protect the Creation from the threats from outside… The ones who fight with the might of the Lord…
But then, one day, Death sent a emissary. A emissary to the leader of the guardians from back then, Reos. You probably know how it works. He promissed hin infinite power, the power to rule over the realm Death would rebuild, told hin how it was technically Death llegit property since the beggining, etc…
The problem is, Reos accepted. And then he, and most of his servants, started to destroy the very Paradise they swore to protect… They were burning it… Burning it to ashes… Destroiyng the Lord most precious work… And, being part of it, I felt the heat of the flames in my very flesh, as they reduced what was once the most beatifull thing that could ever be imagined to a gray wasteland… But once more, the Lord, with his angels and the Guardians who were still loyal to hin, defeated then, deprived then of their powers, and banished then to a Earth. They are now the beings that refer to theirselves as: Humans.
But I couldnt… I couldnt let such a crime simply pass that way… Do you believe I am a traitor? You, the humans, accuse ME of being a traitor? No. What I did, I did BECAUSE of my inquestionable loyalty to hin. I always loved hin in ways that mankind forgot of how it feels like. I did not wanted hin, I was part of hin. Without hin, my existance would have no purpose. But he commited one, great mistake: He was too soft on you. I was the archangel of Justice. And justice I would apply… Those who tried to destroy the Lord work… Must be destroyed…
And then, it came the Third war. And, if you are human, and breathing, it is because I have lost.
He banished me to this place… The same Hell Death was banished for… Me and my servants were locked here as… As demons. Could you believe that? We, demons? Why he dd that to us? We, who were only serving hin all along?
But my loyalty to hin is still absolute, despite his mistake. And that is why I still seek to destroy mankind. One day, I shall find a way out… And, when I do… I shall finally apply my virtue…
But not now… It isnt time yet… We have to be patient… It is time to wait…
