Introduction

The period of history we call the Dark Ages was bleak, but not for the reasons we think.  At the beginning of the Dark Ages in the fifth century AD, Lucifer, the fallen angel condemned to rule over Hell, grew weary of his post and simply walked out, locking the gates of the underworld behind him.  New souls destined for Hell could no longer enter, and instead would remain on Earth, lost and angry; they did not belong in the land of the living.  Exorcists, priests, witchdoctors, and various medicine men of all faiths tried in vain to rid the world of these souls, yet their attempts simply angered the spirits(or, as they are colloquially known, Walkers) further.  Also, many of the demons and tortured spirits who resided in Hell have escaped.  No one knows where Lucifer is hiding, and only Lucifer knows where the key to the gates of Hell is. 

It is said that Lucifer has taken on a human form and is walking the Earth, preferring a mortal life among humans to an immortal one among demons.  Only he knows where the key to open the gates of Hell lies. 

The Creator Himself has sent messages to a select few.  These Prophets dream of the fallen angel and his whereabouts; others dream of ways to send a wandering soul to Hell; still others dream of the Hellgate’s key.  These few come from all parts of the world and from all walks of life; most are priests or monks of some kind, from various religions.  They have been given the task of finding Lucifer and his key and reopening the gates of Hell.


Rules

1. Don't be a dick. Rule number one, folks.

2. Don't god-mod, this is a given, but easy to do in this kind of RP.
3. You can have more than one character!
4. A character can be killed if you have the permission of the character's owner, and that owner will be allowed to make a new character if he/she wishes.
5. This is an advanced roleplay. I'd like three to five paragraphs per post, clear sentences and correct grammar.  I'm not gonna throw anyone out for only writing one paragraph now and then, though.
6. Be awesome.
