To reign is worth ambition though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heav'n.
But wherefore let we then our faithful friends,
Th' associates and copartners of our loss
Lye thus astonisht on th' oblivious Pool,
And call them not to share with us their part
In this unhappy Mansion, or once more
With rallied Arms to try what may be yet
Regain'd in Heav'n, or what more lost in Hell?
-John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book 1


This is more of an idea than an actual breedables shop that will definately pop up. I just want to see if anyone's really interested in it before I go and invest time in making banners, NPCs, a plot... The whole nine yards, you know?

As I hope you can see from the title and my little snippet of Milton (that guy was a genius) this is going to be Biblical-style angels. (not the actual angels. But, you know... angels.) This means that there will probably be no half-angels involved. I understand that the war between angels and demons is overdone. That's why it's not angels and demons, it's angels and fallen angels.

I haven't seen any pets about the fall of Lucifel and the birth/beginning of Hell, except for Indubitably's Divum Cado, which is ACTUALLY about angels which fell mistakenly, not completely new angels who are not working for redemption, etc... Forgive me for wanting to see something newer than angels and already demons, oh crazed threadgoers.
I'm going to hell for that one.

Well, as I said, I haven't opened this yet; this is for interest and aid. That's right. I'm needing people to help out with this concept and help me come up with a plot or something. Because I'm really bad. I'd also like some help from artists and such, as I often have problems with pen pressure on my tablet and sometimes need help inking. Sooooo...

Yeah.

...what time his Pride
Had cast home out from Heav'n, with all his Host
Of Rebel Angels, by whose aid aspiring
To set himself in Glory above his Peers,
He trusted to have equal'd the most High,
If he oppos'd; and with ambitious aim
Against the Throne and Monarchy of God
Rais'd impious War in heav'n and Battel proud
With vain attempt.
-John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book 1


You know the story. By the time Eve and Adam had entered the Garden of Eden, there was already Satan, already evil in this world. Lucifel had long since fallen with his followers, becoming demons and populating Hell.

No one ever seems to question, though, what exactly it was that caused the fall and the end of a world of good. Many say it was Lucifel's pride. Some, however, sympasized. It is horrible to have to ask, to have to depend. It is horrible to be denied.

Of all those angels that fell from Heaven and lost their Paradise, were there none who fell for a good reason? Did none of them fall for love of another? Why did Lucifel himself fall from Heaven, leaving the God he surely must have loved?

Soon it will come. The day that the Book of Enoch is re-enacted. And both sides are preparing. The coming time will be when the walls of Heaven are shaken, and the souls of Hell fight for what they believe is theirs. Seeded throughout the world are special items, placed there by angels. Whether they are fallen or true cannot be said, for these are new angels, unembittered by past backgrounds with their own choices to make.

The final book is ready to be written.

O Prince, O Chief of many Throned Powers,
That led th' imbattell'd Seraphim to Warr
Under thy conduct, and in dreaful deeds
Fearless, endangered Heav'n's perpetual King;
And put to proof his high Supremacy,
Whether upheld by Strength, or Chance, or Fate,
Too well I see and rue the dire event,
That with sad overthrow and foul defeat
Hath lost us Heav'n, and all this mighty Host
In horrible destruction laid thus low,
As far as Gods and Heav'nly Essences
Can Perish: for the mind and spirit remains
Invincible, and vigour soon returns,
Though all our Glory extinct, and happy state
Here swallow'd up in endless misery...
-John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book 1


Stage One- Token
This is the Angel's token to get to Gaia. (working on a way for them to get here other than ANGELPOWER.)

Stage Two- Cadet
The Angel has taken a humanoid form as a Cadet. They have tiny wings, too small to fly with. They are able to fend for themselves and often do- no guardians are necessary. A quest will be issued for them to obtain a Bonded, aka a Gaian whose life force will keep them firmly on Gaia (so they don't float away).

Stage Three- Candidate
The Angel is plus one fully functional set of wings! That means they can now fly. They are also showing a tendency towards a power (decided when you first get your item/token stage) and are starting to unconsciously decide upon their course- to rebel, or to stay faithful to their God? A quest will be issued to determine the next stage's appearance.

Stage Four- Principality
They are probably closer to their decision now and have some inkling of what they're going to do. From this stage onward, an Angel may breed- but beware. Ties to other Angels make them (MUCHMUCHMUCH) more likely to fall! A quest will be issued to determine their next stage's appearance.

Stage Five- Virtue
The Angel is more focused now and further up the ranks! The truth is in their new miniwings- those who intend, consciously or subconsciously, to rebel have bat-like miniwings, while those who are faithful consciously or subconsciously have feathers miniwings. They have a concrete idea of where they are going and what they are going to do. A quest will be issued to determine the next stage's appearance.

Stage Six- Irinim
Irinim are the Watchers. At this stage, they have two pairs of wings- the original pair of wings will have changed to match the second pair. This is the last stage where they may waffle between their choice, for they will meet with the Council of Thrones for their quest- and be cast down or lifted up! You might be able to actually skip this stage if you do something blatantly evil.

Stage Seven- Cherubim, Sarim
Cherubim have been lifted up, and now bear three pairs of wings and a lantern of knowledge. They are definately in God's pocket and may no longer breed, but may take the form of a living flame.
Sarim have fallen and bear only one pair of demonic wings or none at all, depending upon the depth of their sin. They are something less than human now, or... something more?...
A quest will be issued to those who wish to move to the next level.

Stage Eight- Seraphim, Satan
Seraphim are the highest choir of angels and bear three pairs of wings. They possess one of the seven Scrolls of Wisdom. Known as the "fiery ones", they may take the form of a burning wheel. They often dress in pure white.
Satans are the highest circle of fallen angels. (Not demons. FALLEN ANGELS.) They bear one pair of demonic wings and have specialized themselves into one of the seven sins. (Sin is the technical name for this stage, actually... but "I'm a Satan" sounds cooler.... dunnit?)
This would be the final stage until the war begins.

Stage Nine- Ofanim (War Only)
Any sort of angel may be an Ofanim, who are the wheels- or the dead angels. They have been killed in battle, but have been given a special chance- by God or by Lucifer, it's unknown- to guard another angel. Should that angel survive, the Ofanim will be reincarnated at the stage at which they died.

Sing, Heavenly Muse, that, on the secret top
Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
That shepherd who first taught the chosen seed
In the beginning how the heavens and earth
Rose out of Chaos: or, if Sion hill
Delight thee more, and Siloa's brook that flowed
Fast by the oracle of God, I thence
Invoke thy aid to my adventurous song,
That with no middle flight intends to soar
Above th' Aonian mount, while it pursues
Things unattempted yet in prose or rhyme.
-John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book One


This is sort of the post where I'm listing people that I might need.

Inker
Like I said, sometimes I have problems with my tablet. So I might need someone to do lineart in a .psd file when I'm having said problems. You'd be, at most, quarter-time, as I think I found the problem with my tablet. I'd like to see inking samples and hear your opinions, but there's no form yet as I don't even know if I'll have time to actually make this shop~...

Artist(s?)
One or two other artists who would like to help would be nice. <3 I mean, I know I don't have the most appealing art in the world. (really) So other artistically-inclined people who might want to participate in AHoRA are much appreciated! <3 If you want to apply, I'd like to see arting samples and hear opinions on this shop, but there's no form yet for the same reason there's no inker form. surprised

RP/Plot Manager
Like I said WAAAY up in the first post, I don't even know where this would go in an actual Breedables/Changables environment. So I'm looking for people who are good at writing short stories and keeping good, interesting plots going. <3 For an idea of what I mean, check out the Ghosts of the Past thread and see what Kyrianna does... she's a great metaplot person. If you'd like to apply, some writing samples and opinions are nice... but I don't know if this will even amount to anything, so...

...Him the Almighty Power
Hurled headlong flaming from th' ethereal sky,
With hideous ruin and combustion, down
To bottomless perdition, there to dwell
In adamantine chains and penal fire,
Who durst defy th' Omnipotent to arms.
Nine times the space that measures day and night
To mortal men, he, with his horrid crew,
Lay vanquished, rolling in the fiery gulf,
Confounded, though immortal. But his doom
Reserved him to more wrath; for now the thought
Both of lost happiness and lasting pain
Torments him: round he throws his baleful eyes,
That witnessed huge affliction and dismay,
Mixed with obdurate pride and steadfast hate.
At once, as far as Angels ken, he views
The dismal situation waste and wild.
-John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book 1

To whom th' Arch-Enemy,
And thence in Heaven called Satan, with bold words
Breaking the horrid silence, thus began:--
"If thou beest he--but O how fallen! how changed
From him who, in the happy realms of light
Clothed with transcendent brightness, didst outshine
Myriads, though bright!--if he whom mutual league,
United thoughts and counsels, equal hope
And hazard in the glorious enterprise
Joined with me once, now misery hath joined
In equal ruin; into what pit thou seest
From what height fallen: so much the stronger proved
He with his thunder; and till then who knew
The force of those dire arms? Yet not for those,
Nor what the potent Victor in his rage
Can else inflict, do I repent, or change,
Though changed in outward lustre, that fixed mind,
And high disdain from sense of injured merit,
That with the Mightiest raised me to contend,
And to the fierce contentions brought along
Innumerable force of Spirits armed,
That durst dislike his reign, and, me preferring,
His utmost power with adverse power opposed
In dubious battle on the plains of Heaven,
And shook his throne. What though the field be lost?

All is not lost--the unconquerable will,

That glory never shall his wrath or might
Extort from me. To bow and sue for grace
With suppliant knee, and deify his power
Who, from the terror of this arm, so late
Doubted his empire--that were low indeed;
That were an ignominy and shame beneath
This downfall; since, by fate, the strength of Gods,
And this empyreal sybstance, cannot fail;
Since, through experience of this great event,
In arms not worse, in foresight much advanced,
We may with more successful hope resolve
To wage by force or guile eternal war,
Irreconcilable to our grand Foe,
Who now triumphs, and in th' excess of joy
Sole reigning holds the tyranny of Heaven."
-John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book 1
