[ BACKGROUND ] -| Demons, vampires, monsters- many of humanity's darkest legends and most haunting figures are real. Only organizations like Absolution stand between the mundane 'human' world and the darker underbelly that harbors the realization of fears crafted in a time before modern advances could distract from them. Normally Absolution would already have their work cut out for them with a sudden increase in the paranormal come October, but they now face their biggest threat to date. Someone- or something- aims to tear down the Veil between worlds; an act that world forcibly meld the Near and Far shores together to disastrous effect. This story follows a newly created team of oddball rookies: Dead First Thirteen. |-

[ EXTRA INFO ]
-Not much yet because I just want to write ;;; I'm always open for answering any and every question, however!
-We'll mainly be dealing with demons, who live on a separate plane of existence but can be summoned and tethered to this world much like it's believed they do already. i.e Ouija board, séances, places with a lot of death, cults, etc. Similarly, you don't need to know much about them because they follow the same rules you'll find in most media. ^^" It dies depend on the type, though! Demon can also be an umbrella term, as we'll be spotlighting a few other paranormal entities!
-Vampirism is seen as more of a curse or disease!
-Absolution is one of many similar organizations but is the oldest and thus has more reach, with the central HQ being in England.
-You can create a daemon character- a demon or familiar of one if the agents' - but they Have to have an agent they're contracted to. You can't just have a free-wheeling demon unless they're an antagonist, and if so, they can't be introduced until later.
-Your character can have magic but if you want someone with vampirism/half-demon we'd have to discuss it first!
-Dead First is the team's nickname, many well-known teams have nicknames along with their given number.
-I'll open up more roles if needed... Support means someone with support abilities or a healer. Fire Support is basically the 'tank' or AOE expert. Specialist means someone with a rare ability or skills.

[ FORMS ] Unknown . Sixx . 26(?) . Captain Sixx is a warlock whose conduits are grimoires- three in particular. Lightning, Gravity, & Passive magics. Lightning takes mana faster but is also incredibly fast. Gravity takes time, the mana drain depends on what he's trying to do, and it's slow, but incredibly powerful and versatile. Passive magic doesn't take much mana and involves simple things like unlocking doors or basic enchantments. He can only use one grimoire at a time, currently. Technology and magic don't mix well, so he doesn't have a lot of the equipment the others have. His grimoires are created with the willing aid of spirits who govern these elements. | His grimoires, primarily. Sixx isn't very athletic and would probably die in a fistfight. He relies heavily on his magic, wits, and of course his shikigami. Average height and slender build. Messy inky hair with turquoise streaks. Pale freckled skin. Narrow eyes; right faded gray and the left ebony. Often wears suits and expensive classy but messily worn clothing. | Tayuya . endingfairy endingfairy Tayuya . Bow Tsukumogami . Sixx Tayuya is a powerful yumi bow that has acquired a 'kami' through his years of service to many famous masters. In addition to being virtually invulnerable as long as his bow remains untouched, he's also capable of firing arrows of purifying light either with 'himself' or via hand movements. He's incredibly fast, able to move at the speed of which his arrows are shot and has excellent vision that is near telescopic, allowing him to better perceive distant targets and lock onto vulnerable points. Physical attacks don't harm him, though he is vulnerable to magical or 'spiritual' ones. | Ancient Yumi Bow Tayuya is tall and stately, with pale skin and the rounded ears of a tanuki. His murky green hair is always neat and bound to either side of his softly featured face with a longer queue running down his back. His eyes are jade green and red tassels dangle from his ears. | endingfairy Juniper Le Roi- 24 years old. Specialist Juniper is a medium. She can touch and be able to feel the spirits. Normally mediums can only talk to spirits during a ritual, but Juniper can talk to them any time. | Juniper has a small blade that she keeps on her person. - Juniper is a small lithe women with brown hair with red high lights that only show in certain light. She has bright green eyes that turn a shade darker in candle light or in daylight. She loves to wear jeans and t-shirts and acts like a male half the time. | lemonpepper

Question, What sort of Specialist are you looking for? Medium type or something different?))

Sure! Thanks a lot for the interest! ;;;
Hm, a Specialist would be someone with abilities/magic that isn't common! So a Medium could work, if your character is stronger than a normal medium! Say, they can interact with spirits more than simply hearing/seeing them, or they can trap spirits/demons in a way that would help exorcism~

Sixx's first official mission as captain of an Absolution squad- official because he's not counting buying groceries earlier- is going about as well as can be expected. That is, not particularly well. At all. "Well." Emerges on a pained grunt as he staggers once again to his feet, right hand stinging from where half of the glove had been scraped off during an attempt to break his fall. His seventh fall of the day- and hopefully his last. Seven is supposed to be a lucky number, after all... "Well." So dry and drawn-out that it might as well be a flatline. Sixx very pointedly does not meet the amused but unimpressed gaze that he can feel settling on him like an itchy blanket. Perhaps investigating a Haunted- with a capital 'H'- manor in answer to rumors of a demon and possible child hostage would be a touch less difficult if he didn't have such a tough audience. With the remaining roles in his squad only partly filled out, Sixx only has his Specialist to aid him on his maiden mission- one she is perfectly suited for, fortunately! Unfortunately, the agency decided to make up for his lack of manpower with members of the Reserve 13. Kibutsuji Ukou is a reserve- and a 13- for a reason, and Sixx suspects it may be due to his difficult personality.
"My, that was entertaining~ But tell me, which phase of your plan was this again~?" The lithe man drawls, leaning casually against a fractured spiral banister. It broke when Sixx was flung against it, Ukou having previously stepped aside to avoid catching him. Or at least breaking his fall. The Fire Support Specialist is a gentle soul; as proven by the encouraging warmth in his feline smile. "Phase Four~!" Sixx blithely answers, even though he has no idea what this means. They've been trying to venture deeper into the decrepit building for a little over fifteen minutes now, but every time they make headway the demon either physically knocks them back or a trapped spirit misdirects them. Them being Juniper and Sixx- Ukou remains at the base of the stairs with a damn twinkle in his eye that suggests he knows the secret to advancing but enjoys watching them struggle. With a possible hostage on the line, every second counts and Sixx is done wasting time. He straightens and pushes messy ebon locks from his face, inscrutable smile remaining despite the insistent ticking sound that must be originating from somewhere in his head. He'd already had the once-operable grandfather clock thrown at him. "And now onto Phase Five~" He circles a finger in the air. "Let's split up, gang!"
"Juniper, you said the strongest energy was coming from below, right? I'm going to need you to make contact with any spirits you can and trap them to weaken the demon. I'll be following the screams." And being a general distraction. His magic isn't much good with the intangible but he'll manage~ "Ukou will accompany you because he'd be useless otherwise~" The other agent's terrible sense of direction is fairly well-known. He can get lost going in a straight line. As long as he sticks close to the medium however, he should be fine. And his presence has the added benefit of extra fire power, particularly against spirits and demons~ "Enkouou-sama~," Sixx singsongs, extending his slightly less injured palm. "Might you grace this lowly one with your presence~?" Ukou's expression has yet to change as he eyes the dirt and soot-stained glove. Fortunately, the decision isn't up to him as the aforementioned demonic dragon abruptly materializes in his humanoid form, tail held carefully above the mildewed flooring and legs curled up as if he is reclining upon a cushion of air. "Might I." His smooth baritone practically reverberates through the thick, dusty air. Ukou doesn't show any visible signs of strain, but his daemon's presence will weigh on him eventually. Sixx will have to be careful about how they use him. "Much appreciated~ If you would care to accompany me for a spell? I'd like to find you a worthy opponent~" Everything must be phrased as a question or request for a boon; Enkouou doesn't tolerate any notion of command that isn't his.
"Hm. I will accept, though I do not foresee success in this endeavor. The effort will be appreciated." He fades with a regal inclination of his horned head, and Ukou relinquishes his Tether with a minute shrug. The extravagant silken ribbon is handed over with such ease that Sixx wonders if the two are even close enough to care about the danger of parting- or perhaps Ukou trusts them to remain safe? Ah, doubtful~ Though Ukou wore it blatantly in his hair, Sixx carefully ties the ribbon into a backwards-facing bow around his throat. It's the safest and most intimate place he can think to keep it- right over Tayuya's bowstring. "Right!" He nods to himself with a little hum and turns to face Juniper. "Ready?"

Juniper was wincing at the pained back she had aquaired from being thrown in the walls and a bruise wrist from where she had to catch herself from falling off the floor they had gotten stuck on. She hissed under her breath at all the noises in her head. "I will try my best, Cap. these spirits are strong and they are not happy at all." She told him rubbing her temple. She then straightened out and forcefully pushed out all the extra noises from her head before putting up a strong brick wall around her head. "But I will do what i can in contacting what ever is downstairs, and i will see what i can do in trapping it." She then turned towards Ukou, If need be, I will need you to make sure i stay in my own body, If i start to act weird just rub some of this under my nose." She then passed him some sage and rosemary salt. "This should wake me from what ever i am under when i do contact the spirit or demon downstairs."
(Sorry its not as long as yours, I have a little girl i am trying to put asleep and she keeps trying to shut my laptop lol. ))

( Thanks for understanding! ^^ And no need to worry about length! As long as it's enough to respond to~ Here you go! ) --
Sixx smiles at the nickname, straightening a bit more, much to Ukou's amusement. The captain shoots finger guns at her as he backs toward the secondary set of stairs leading up to the third floor from the other direction. They're slightly less damaged, though he does nearly trip over a loose board as he moves. "Much appreciated Specs~!" Yeah...he might have to work on a better role-nickname for her. Pity 'Cap' is so easy... Ukou accepts Juniper's proffered items with that inscrutable little smile of his. Sixx is really putting faith into his not sabotaging their first mission. He tries to give the older man a stern 'I'm trusting you twatweed' look as he rests a scuffed boot on the first stair. "Okay, solid plan! Let's get moving~ Go team Thirteen!" Sixx cheers, fist pumping the air before taking the unsteady stairs at a sprint as if he can move faster than the demon could attack him. Which is..possible! In theory. "Go Die First~!" Ukou cheers along with him, lazily dropping the medium's fail-safes into a pouch on his thigh. Resting a gloved hand on the hilt at his hip, he tilts his head toward the ominous stairwell that they'd recently climbed. "After you~"
